The position of Chengdu County Magistrate is a bit embarrassing. The magistrate of a county is usually the person with the highest status in the county. However, when the Chengdu County Magistrate goes out and meets an official who is older than him, he will cause a lot of trouble every day.
And the king is right in front of you, let alone being arrogant, even if you want to go to work and catch a fish, you can't do it.
However, this position, just like Zhang Yi's Jiangyang County Magistrate, is for inspection and as a springboard for future promotion.
Now that the development plan has been finalized, Ma Su is particularly busy. Although he has not yet finished talking, he hastily resigned.
Later Liu Chan mentioned Guan Xing again.
In order to allow Liu Chan to better win people's hearts, Old Liu deliberately emptied the rewards for everyone in the Red Star Army, and then just report the list to him after Liu Chan made arrangements.
Although Guan Xing is not a member of the Red Star Army, as the son of Guan Yu, he may become his son's loyal minister in the future.
Therefore, Lao Liu discussed Guan Xing's arrangements with his son before the meeting, and the two finally decided to let him serve as military advisor and general Sima.
Guan Xing's personality was different from that of his brother Guan Ping. He had been familiar with military books, tactics, and classics since he was a child. He often made extraordinary changes in the use of troops. He commanded the battle formations of the Chinese army during the war. Although he had martial arts skills, he did not like to act alone. Brave.
In view of this, Liu Chan thought of letting him stay with Zhuge Liang and learn more so that he could take on a big job in the future.
Although I have talked about some ideas with Guan Xing, his personality is not very suitable for my fighting methods. It is better to learn fighting formations from Uncle Zhuge.
Zhuge Liang naturally readily agreed to this matter. Even without Liu Chan or even Guan Yu, he had heard about Guan Xing's good reputation when he was a young man studying abroad.
What's more, the successful attack on Fangling and the capture of Cao's army's rear city in one fell swoop made Zhuge Liang very appreciative.
"Prince, don't worry, Anguo can temporarily follow Liang to practice military formation and battle formations."
After the matter was said, Liu Chan did not stay any longer. Although he wanted to chat with Uncle Zhuge all day long like before, now was not the time. Both of them had many things to be busy with.
After leaving Da Sima's mansion, Liu Chan suddenly had an idea.
This one-on-one talent training model is more targeted and can teach students in accordance with their aptitude.
However, the efficiency is too low. For Ji Han, who has a huge demand for talents, it is simply a drop in the bucket.
Not to mention that he has a more ambitious plan in mind, and a large number of talents will be needed to implement the plan.
Completely relying on aristocratic families?
In history, the Cao family since Cao Pi has set the best example for themselves.
It’s time to start education and talent development.
Of course, this does not mean that he plans to completely break the monopoly on knowledge at this time, conduct a large-scale imperial examination, and dig out the roots of aristocratic families...
Now that the Northern Expedition has not yet begun, if Ji Han gets into trouble first, I am afraid that Cao Pi will wake up laughing while sleeping with his father's concubine on his pillow.
But we can still organize craftsmen who can make paper first, and provide them with a living guarantee and a good environment just like we supported Wang Shuhe.
Set up a reward mechanism and let them further improve the current paper and produce qualified paper first. This will be the basis of everything.
At the same time, veteran generals like Huang Zhong, who were incapable of fighting anymore, but had rich experience and only had temporary duties, were gathered together to set up an officer school.
Let’s start with the children of the rich clan. Firstly, they will have a foundation and grow faster. Secondly, it will also dispel their doubts about what they are going to do next.
Then we select good young talents currently serving in the army, regardless of their origins, and send them to further training.
When the time is right, I will completely transition to teaching regardless of my origin, so that all the future heroes of the world can become my disciples.
Just do it, Liu Chan immediately sent someone to inform Ma Di and help him recruit craftsmen who are good at papermaking in Chengdu.
At the same time, the announcement was made to spread the news to the outside world, and anyone with expertise in this field from nearby counties could come.
Ma Di had just had the honor to meet the prince, and he was extremely concerned about the first thing the prince asked him to do, and immediately made it a top priority.
At the same time, Liu Chan ordered Zhao Guanshi to send people to find a suitable location for paper making. If there was a ready-made house, he would buy it. If there was no house, he would recruit people to build it.
Liu Chan is still very confident about papermaking. Yizhou has good water, good wood, and good bamboo. It is impossible that he cannot make good paper. It's just that no one paid attention to and supported it before.
By the way, I asked about the caravan's second trip south, but this time in order to provide Liu Chan with a more detailed map and continue to search for mineral deposits and cotton trees, it has not returned yet.
After arranging this matter, it was getting late, and Liu Chan went to the shantytown as usual.
After the troops returned to camp to remove their armor and place supplies, the soldiers followed orders and went home.
The Red Star Army must have at least ten days of leave after each war, and wounded soldiers can extend this indefinitely depending on their injuries.
This has also been written into the gradually improving military regulations. Since the Red Star Army usually takes ten days off, it is actually 11 days. It is postponed during the holidays. All vacations listed in the regulations will still be paid.
Unless there is an emergency war or special circumstances like the last time when you voluntarily return to the camp, this rule cannot be shaken.
At the same time, Liu Chan also specifically emphasized after the last time that he did not advocate returning to the camp voluntarily.
Rest is also an important means to maintain combat effectiveness and morale, and soldiers have a more important task...to use their vacation to solve the problem of not having a family.
Liu Chan will facilitate the marriage of anyone over the age of 16, and even the matchmaker in the city can get paid for facilitating a marriage between a Red Star warrior.
And if someone dares to take advantage of the Red Star Army to go out to fight and seduce the female relatives who are left behind... then Liu Chan will definitely let the other person experience what it means to beat a chicken with a flying egg.
But at the same time, another rule was also introduced, prohibiting prostitution.
This provision is also to maintain the combat effectiveness of the troops.
Not only does recruiting prostitutes not help the warriors' families flourish, but it can also lead to them contracting the disease.
Red Star Army soldiers who have to undergo physical examinations every time they return to Chengdu will be dismissed without exception if they are found to have Hualiu disease.
But the male instinct cannot be suppressed blindly, and it will cause trouble after a long time, which is why Liu Chan is so concerned about their marriage during the holidays.
Families in shantytowns who have won a battle and are reunited are naturally elated. Wives who have not seen each other for a long time also look forward to their husbands remaining brave on the battlefield after dark.
But the man's family who couldn't wait until he went to war... seemed to be in another world.
Liu Chan came here just for them.
There will come a day when he can no longer visit the families of martyrs in person every time, but until then, he doesn't want to do anything for others.
This kind of comfort is two-way. While Liu Chan brings comfort to them, he is burdened with more and more sacrifices, and he can also use this to relieve some of his weight and fatigue.
He sometimes envies some people who are cold-hearted, which should make it a lot easier, but unfortunately he can only be ruthless to his enemies.
Pensions and rewards were given, and he stayed in the shantytowns to enjoy life with the soldiers and civilians.
During this period, Liu Chan also visited Fazheng and Huang Zhong respectively.
The results are mixed. Fa Zheng's lung cancer is becoming more and more stable under treatment, and his body temperature, which has been persistent for a long time, has dropped.
But his eye sockets were sunken, and his whole body had lost weight more than twice, making him look extremely weak.
But no matter what, his life was saved.
Liu Chan's concern for him also raised his Dharma Sensitivity to 75, with excellent political talent (132/200) and extraordinary strategic talent (150/300).
But on Huang Zhong's side, although the asthma of the old general whom he had not seen for a long time had stopped its rapid development, it was still slowly getting worse.
According to Wang Shuhe's estimation, Huang Zhong may not be able to survive this winter...
Although his favorability level also rose to 70, and Huang Zhong also pulled Liu Chan to teach him the five-star continuation technique.
But it looked like he knew his life was short and was eager to contribute his talents.
It's just that people are inevitably subject to birth, old age, illness and death. In this matter, Liu Chan has no extraordinary ability.
More than ten days passed by in a hurry.
The Red Star Army, once again concentrated in the military camp, is about to usher in a new round of regular army changes and the appointment of generals.
However, this time Liu Chan still needs to make adjustments to the composition of his troops. With the increase in the number of troops and the improvement of various basic skills, the initial comprehensive development can no longer meet the needs of the current Red Star Army.
They need to become a more specialized unit and devote more energy to developing their specialties and further improving their combat skills.
It's time for the soldiers of the Red Star Army to change their professions.
