"You will share the food and drinks made every day with the military academy members. I got up early in the morning to make them." In the dining room, Le Lanji brought a bowl of water biscuits to Shao Xun, complaining a little.
.
Over the past ten days, government soldiers have gathered in Xuchang one after another. Every day they have to meet with several military academies, issue official seals, give them a few words of encouragement, and then eat and drink with them to cultivate feelings.
"You don't understand." Shao Xun smiled and said nothing more.
Why did he do this? He not only received the officers, but also talked with the soldiers. There is a reason for this.
This is an army he built by himself, and of course it must be well maintained.
You want to be the founder of the army, not the successor. In these two cases, the level of authority over the army is different.
He built this army from scratch and had strong control. Not only was he kind to the officers, he also chatted with some soldiers, gave them rewards, and helped them solve some difficulties.
In addition, he often showed his bravery in front of them, spent energy to remember their names, and gave them a surprise - think about it, you are a penniless soldier, and the supreme commander actually knows your name and gave you a reward. What is this?
Feeling?
Now the legend about him has begun to spread in the army.
After a few more years of consolidation, he will be the god of this army, and no one can shake his status unless he dies.
But if his son inherits the army, the situation will be different.
There is no affection between the heirs, officers, and soldiers. They are only restrained by the system, and the authority level drops sharply.
Some people who are worried that their sons cannot control the army will even carry out a general purge, even if the combat effectiveness of the army is reduced.
One relies on the constraints of the system, and the other relies not only on the system, but also on kindness and affection as lubricants. Which one is better and which one is worse is obvious.
But then again, it is difficult for the second generation to reach the level of the entrepreneurial first generation.
Moreover, most of the first generation have not established enough prestige and kindness at all, and it will naturally become even more unstable after being passed on to the second generation.
Shao Xun is a self-made founder who provides favors to the soldiers. The more he does, the stronger the stability will be when he passes it on to his son in the future. After all, this world is not full of wolf-hearted people, and many people will remember his favors.
, who is willing to protect his descendants, as long as the descendants do not act rebelliously.
"I'm saving money for my children, do you understand?" After eating the water biscuits, Shao Xun put down his chopsticks and asked, "Where's the golden knife?"
"I'm learning how to read," Le Lanji said.
"You can read at the age of five. Are all the children of the gentry suffering so much?" Shao Xun asked curiously.
Le Lanji took a matter-of-fact attitude and said: "Although there are many children of scholars who are incompetent, it is true that they should start learning at the age of five or six."
“What is the teaching?”
"Lang Jun's Thousand-Character Classic also teaches Poems." Speaking of this, Lan Ji added: "I was taught according to the rules of Le's private school. Learning "Poetry" at the age of five is not the same.
How many words do you need to know? The main thing is to know more about the names of mountains, rivers, vegetation.”
Shao Xun was stunned.
It turns out that the private education of aristocratic families is very particular. The younger children knew that they could not settle down, so they were taught "Poetry" and took them out to play to identify the plants and trees mentioned in "Poetry".
Deepen the impression.
When they are a little older, while continuing to study "Poetry", they begin to intersperse the study of "Li", mainly to let them understand the rules of human relations.
Anyway, this is how Le Lanji learned it, and she had people get the fine annotated editions of "Poetry", "Li", "Yi", "Lao", "Zhuang" and other books from her home in Nanyang, and even her
Collection of essays and calligraphy posts left by his father Le Guang - Le Guang had some academic attainments and was also a master of calligraphy.
After listening to it, Shao Xun felt that the cost of this education model was too high and it was impossible to promote it.
Each school's teaching materials are also different.
Some large families who devote themselves to scholarship have a relatively deep foundation and can easily collect tens of thousands of books.
Sometimes they would open a library to teach - usually when they were old enough to resign and go into seclusion - at this time people from several counties or even a state would be in commotion, and there would often be thousands of people seeking their fame.
The same cannot be said for families with a poor foundation. They have few books and the textbooks they learn are copied from nowhere. Some of them are scattered and lost, and there are errors and omissions. When debating with others, wrong things suddenly appear, which makes people laugh.
Why is Wang Yan so good at debating? One is that he is eloquent, the other is shameless, but the most important thing is that he has a rich collection of books at home. He also likes to read miscellaneous books and is involved in all aspects. During the debate, no one has heard of anything he said.
Something that has been said before, and then points out where this argument or allusion comes from, making others extremely ashamed.
"My son's literacy depends entirely on you as a mother. When he is older, I will teach him military strategy and tactics," Shao Xun said.
"Where did Mr. Lang learn it?" Le Lanji asked mischievously, "Could it be that it's really Professor Taibai Star?"
Shao Xun hugged her on his lap and asked deliberately with a straight face: "Is Taibaixing powerful?"
Le Lanji blushed. She almost knocked her out last night. Isn't it awesome?
"I will send someone to make a copy of the Le family's collection of books." Shao Xun added: "From now on, I, Shao, will draw on the strengths of all the families and compile a complete set of books, which will be made public for students all over the world to copy. Each family will hide it here and there.
In the end, there were very few knowledgeable people, which is really abominable.”
"Why should I give this collection of essays that my father worked so hard to study to others? Just tell it to Jin Dao." Le Lanji was a little unhappy.
"Just do it for me." Shao Xun straightened the woman's slightly pouted mouth, making her giggle.
"Well, I'll tell my eldest brother." Le Lanji agreed.
"That's right." Shao Xun said happily.
In the past, I only knew that Yue Guang was powerful, but now I found out that he was a senior intellectual at the level of "university professor", and I was immediately in awe.
****
After breakfast, he began to deal with official business.
Li Chong, who joined the army, came to the table and asked for an attack on Shile.
The reason is that Shi Le fought a battle with Wang Jun at the end of last year. Although he won, his strength was damaged, so he joined forces to attack.
As for why Shi Le lost a lot of strength after winning, the main reason is that he played a defensive counterattack routine.
Wang Jun united with Duanbu Xianbei, dispatched tens of thousands of infantry and cavalry, and fought all the way to Yecheng, unstoppable.
But they got crazy and started to attack the fortified city. In the end, they suffered heavy casualties and lost all their energy. When they retreated, they were chased by Shile's cavalry and returned in defeat.
Shao Xun thought for a while and refused, letting Li Chong continue to farm in Puyang.
It's not that he doesn't want to fight against Shi Le, it's mainly because the Silver Spear Army has not retreated yet and there are no soldiers available - strictly speaking, there are a lot of soldiers, but there are too few infantry who can deal with the cavalry. If ordinary infantry goes up, they will be killed.
The second copy is a letter written by Wang Queer.
Shao Xun looked at it and muttered: "This word is hopeless."
After reading it carefully, I learned that Liu Han had assembled a large army after the beginning of spring and was stationed in the north of Hanoi. He seemed to have a plan. There were also large groups of cavalry herding horses in the wild, and from time to time they would go outside Beicheng to spy.
This is wrong!
Shao Xun was a little strange. With Liu Cong's temper, shouldn't he gather a large army to besiege the three cities of Heyang?
He stood up, looked at the map hanging on the wall, and thought carefully.
Siege battles are the most brutal. The defenders can greatly consume the attacker's troops, supplies, and morale, and then gain the opportunity to turn defeat into victory. It's just that when an opportunity arises, whether it can be seized or not depends on the details.
He originally believed that even if the Xiongnu sacrificed tens of thousands of lives, they might not be able to capture the three cities of Heyang. At that time, he would mobilize a large army and bring all the cavalry with him, and maybe they could rush to Shangdang.
But now Liu Cong actually doesn't force himself...
"It is not advisable to treat the enemy as a fool." Shao Xun smiled to himself and sat back, secretly wondering whether the Huns were going to attack Guanzhong in a large scale.
At the end of last year, I heard that King Liu Yao of Zhongshan had led his troops to Feng Yi, and together with Shan Zheng's Di soldiers, they defeated Liang Zong and others' attack on Feng Yi.
It happened that Jia Tong was killed by Peng Tianhu, and the two sides stopped fighting for a long time.
Now that I think about it, are the Huns planning to increase their troops in Guanzhong and invade Chang'an?
If this is the case, then he will have to adjust his strategy, because the enemy's strategy has undergone major changes.
"I can't live in peace for a year." He sighed, closed his eyes, and the mountains and rivers of Hanoi, Luoyang, Hongnong and other places were all in his mind.
Wang Mi is still easy to fight!
The terrain of Hanoi is flat and smooth, which is conducive to cavalry.
The terrain in Hebei is also conducive to cavalry.
Hongnong is located in the mountainous area of ​​western Henan, which is convenient for infantry operations.
But which troops to dispatch requires considerable consideration.
He stood up and walked around the room.
It's a pity that after Wang Zhang was captured last year, nothing valuable could be found out, otherwise the meeting would have been able to make strategic adjustments.
Should he withdraw the Silver Spear Zuoying? He was undecided.
It is said that this unit has been out for a long time and it is time to withdraw and rest. However, the situation in Hanoi is unclear at this time and a hasty change of defense may be taken advantage of by the enemy.
That's all, if you don't decide, hit Wang Mi.
If you hit more, you might find clues.
Moreover, last year Shi Le marched into Hongnong, and the Zhongwu Army suffered a huge defeat. The main force was annihilated. This revenge has not yet been avenged - of course Wang Mi will be avenged for Shi Le's sins.
"Shunling." Shao Xun shouted.
"Ming Gong." Cai Cheng walked in.
"Send this order to the shogunate, write a long history, and the left and right commanders will handle it together." Shao Xun handed him a written order and ordered.
"Promise." Cai Cheng put the order letter into the wooden box, bowed and left.
After Cai Cheng left, Shao Xun thought about it and decided to go to Luoyang.
Although the Forbidden Army is bad, they can't hide behind and do nothing. That will only make them worse. It's always better to be cannon fodder for sieges. If that doesn't work, it's better to disband.
As for whether mobilizing the imperial army will drive the emperor crazy, that is another matter, and it can be tested.
After making the decision, he checked the previous documents and carefully studied the battle situation in Fanguanzhong.
Generally speaking, Liu Han did not seem to invest the main force, probably because after Jinyang was recaptured by Tuoba Yilu, they were also under pressure and needed to be careful.
In fact, it is said that Henan was the place where the Four World War took place. Wasn’t it the same for Liu Han?
Every family has its own sutras that are difficult to recite, and everyone has their own difficulties.
There were footsteps outside the door, and soon, a private soldier delivered a letter.
Shao Xun reached out to take it and found that it was written by Lu Zhi.
He thought something was going on in the court. When he opened it, he was a little surprised.
When Murong Xuan's son Murong Han heard that Duan's Xianbei had been defeated, he raised a large army and joined forces with Yuwen Xianbei to defeat the Duan clan and capture tens of thousands of cattle, sheep and men.
This is not the point. The point is that Wang Jun hastily summoned the army to prepare to reinforce Duanbu Xianbei.
Shao Xun thought for a long time.
The situation is really changing rapidly.
Chapter completed!
