"I won't talk about martial arts and camp formations, they are all clear at a glance."
"The Art of War, you think you wrote it down silently, but are the words correct? A difference of one word can make a huge difference in meaning. Do you think I can share it with you?
If you feel there is a problem, you can go to the Ministry of War to inquire. "
"Let's talk about Cewen."
When Li Banghua said this, he was silent for a moment, and then raised his voice: "I'm not telling you, you should all look at what you wrote."
The people in the audience were stunned. Is this what an important official of the imperial court should say?
Even if our writing is bad, you can't insult us like this!
The failed martial arts students became angry, clenched their fists, and wanted to rush forward, push Li Banghua to the ground and beat him.
snort!
Keng!
Wang Laipin snorted coldly, slammed the long knife in his hand into the ground, and stared at everyone with a domineering side: "Quiet, listen to Mr. Li continue!"
"In the affairs of a general, calmness leads to excellence, and justice leads to governance."
“The Lord shall not be angry and raise an army, nor shall he be angry and cause war!”
Li Banghua read a few sentences slowly, and then looked at everyone: "Does it sound familiar?"
"Yes, this is a question from a certain section of the Art of War section. Most of you answered it correctly, but did you do it?
When I said something, you all became angry and wanted to rush up and attack me.
From now on, in the army, won’t you attack just because your subordinates say a word to the enemy? "
The martial arts scholars looked thoughtful, and the faces of the failed martial arts students became gloomy again.
Then a failed martial arts student said loudly: "Master Li, this is because we are not well-educated enough, but what does it have to do with Ce Wen?"
"It's a big deal!"
Li Banghua said calmly: "I won't mention names, but will give you a few examples. Listen."
"One candidate said that he would get married to Jiannu and marry a princess to Huang Taiji, but this princess went with a mission.
When a son is born in the future, he will be taught from an early age to let him know that he is of the Ming Dynasty's blood. When he grows up, he will inherit the throne and lead the slaves to surrender to the Ming Dynasty, without losing any blood!
As you can imagine, don’t you know that the Ming Dynasty will never marry according to the ancestral system established by Taizu? With just this idea of yours, I can pull you out and chop you down. "
"Some candidates said that the Hongyi cannon was so powerful that it killed Nurhaci, and asked the court to build 10,000 cannons. The cannons were fired in unison, and they blasted Shengjing, the capital of the Jiannu slaves, into rubbish.
The method is good, can you imagine that the imperial court could not think of it?
Do you want to give me tens of millions of taels of silver?
How can a cannon weighing several thousand kilograms be transported outside Shengjing?
If it can be transported outside Shengjing City, it means that the Ming Dynasty's army is already very capable of fighting. What else does it need cannons for?
When writing a policy question, if you only focus on the beginning and not the end, it will be strange for you to be admitted. "
"There is also talk about building an extremely powerful army that can be defeated and attacked. This sounds more reliable.
But you talk all the time and talk with great boasts, without any practical methods. Do you fight with your words? "
…
"There are many more like this. They are either empty talk without any method, or they are outrageous, or they are cliché.
Take a look at the scoring standards in Daming Daily, including the purpose of deliberation, article structure, typical case analysis, and argumentation ideas. What are you missing? "
"Don't doubt the unfairness of the grading. I can tell you responsibly that the grading of this martial arts test is the most stringent in my country.
In each session, five people will judge the test papers and no one will know the scores given by the other assessors.
If the error exceeds five points, the reason must be explained. If you want to deliberately cover up or suppress maliciously, it is simply non-existent. "
"It's all gone, go back and think about it!"
After Li Banghua finished speaking, he turned around and headed towards Chengtian Gate. The moment he turned around, he grinned.
It feels so good. I have never felt so good.
When Li Banghua's figure disappeared behind Chengtian Gate, everyone in the square exploded.
"It's really outrageous. If Mr. Li hadn't said it, I wouldn't have known that these warriors have such strange minds. They are really brave."
"Hmph, the one who wrote about marriage is so mean. I have been in Ming Dynasty for many years and have experienced several crises, but I have never been able to get married.
If the old man knew who wrote it, he would... scold him to death! "
"The military student who exchanged Ming sergeants for Jiannu cavalry deserved to die. He didn't take the lives of ordinary sergeants into consideration.
He would have to mobilize a million sergeants to fight against the Jian Nu, and exchange ten for one. He was really wrong with his thinking. "
"Fortunately, I was not admitted, otherwise countless soldiers of our Ming Dynasty would suffer."
"Huh, if Compassion can't control soldiers, Shan can't control power. If we can use one million ordinary soldiers to replace the 100,000 cavalry of the slaves, it would be a good deal. This tactic now is just a tactic to add fuel to the fire."
"Tell me something you can understand, what is the fueling tactic?"
"You have lit the oil lamp. As long as you refuel it, unless the lamp is broken, it will keep burning.
The combat power of our sergeants is worse than that of Jiannu. We have an advantage of at least four to one to five to one, but we are less than three to one every time.
No matter how many armies we have, they will only attack one and concentrate their efforts to annihilate us.
If we eliminate some parts, we will replenish others, and they will all die in the end. It is better to gather the army and crush them all at once.
This martial artist's method is good, but the problem is that scheduling and money cannot be solved. "
"Then Jinning's defense line consumes so much money, wouldn't it be possible..."
"You can use a hammer. Without this line of defense, Jiannu would have attacked us long ago. One moment, another moment."
…
Amid the heated debate, the onlookers slowly began to disperse, and then discussions took place throughout the city.
In the square, many Wu Jinshi congratulated each other on this great event in life.
"Brother Wang, congratulations, the first martial arts champion in the Ming Dynasty is destined to go down in history!"
"Brother Wang, can you let me try this long sword and get some glory from my predecessor?"
"Brother Wang, you deserve a treat for such a happy event!"
…
Everyone was not stupid. They scored full marks in the martial arts test and the highest scores in the art of war and strategy tests. This shows that Wang Laipin is an all-rounder in both civil and military affairs.
As long as nothing unexpected happens, after the assessment is completed in half a year, he will be the commander of the third rank and the future commander-in-chief.
They might work under Wang Laipin's account in the future. If they don't establish a good relationship at this time, how can they wait?
The Wu Jinshis kept in touch with each other, but at this moment in Dongnuan Pavilion, the cabinet and the six ministers were all there, but all of them looked serious.
Although the emperor's expression was calm at Chengtianmen Square, he was absolutely furious inside at this moment.
Even the edict can be postponed, which is an absolute contempt for the imperial power.
Maybe, everyone from the chief envoy of a province to the local magistrate would have to be killed to appease the emperor's anger.
Not only for the dignity of the imperial court, but also to deter other frontier officials.
"Your Majesty, the follow-up matters of the martial arts department have been taken care of. We only need to go to the palace tomorrow to express gratitude and pay homage to the martial arts temple, and after the champion parades through the streets, the martial arts department will be over!"
"Li Aiqing worked hard!"
Chongzhen, who had been silent since entering Dongnuan Pavilion, nodded.
Then he said in a deep voice: "The commander-in-chief of the Xuanfu, Wang Chengyin, is corrupt and perverting the law, allowing his servants to bully men and dominating the market, and military discipline is loose. How should we deal with it?"
"This is the incriminating evidence found by Jin Yiwei. Please take a look!"
Everyone was a little confused and couldn't wrap their heads around it.
Isn’t it time to deal with the postponement of the edict? Why did it come to the head of the Xuanfu Commander-in-Chief?
Before he had time to think about it, Wang Chengen had already handed over the folder that Jin Yiwei had found.
