Wang Yangming has already moved, rented a yard by himself, and moved out of Li Dongyang's house to live.

Wang Xiang, who is about the same age as Wang Yuan, became Wang Yangming's housekeeper, bought another mother-in-law to cook on the fire, and bought a maid to serve tea and pour water.

As for Song Ling'er, she is nominally Wang Yangming's student, but in fact, she is almost raised as a daughter.

Wang Yangming has been frail and sickly since he was a child, and when he was young, he also took mercury to treat lung disease, and he has never had children or daughters under his knees. A few years ago, his wife finally got pregnant, but because Wang Yangming was in prison, he was overly worried and had a difficult birth, and the doctor said that it would be difficult to get pregnant in the future.

If it weren't for Song Ling'er being the daughter of Tusi, it is estimated that Wang Yangming would have directly adopted her as an adopted daughter.

"Wang Yuan, this is delicious, you can taste it." Song Ling'er brought a plate of candied fruit.

Wang Yuan smiled and asked, "Did you pickle it yourself?" ”

Song Ling'er said: "How can I have that ability, I bought it in the store." ”

Wang Yuan ate candied fruit with tea and asked, "Then what skills have you learned?" ”

Song Ling'er said: "I was learning "The Art of War" and "General Yuan" before, and there are some Song Dynasty formations. Now I have a headache, my husband teaches me "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" every day, saying that in order to be handsome, you must know how to calculate. ”

""Nine Chapters of Arithmetic is not difficult." Wang Yuan said with a smile.

"Isn't that difficult? It hurts my brain to learn," Song Ling'er covered her forehead and said, "Mr. said that I must learn five of the ten books of the Arithmetic Scriptures in order to be a qualified general." ”

"When I come back from this war, I'll teach you a simpler algorithm." Wang Yuan ate another candied fruit.

Wang Yangming walked in suddenly, and Wang Yuan and Song Ling'er immediately got up to greet him.

"Sit down," Wang Yangming said with a smile, "Today's imperial history, I heard that out of ten books, at least eight of them oppose you as a patrol of imperial history." ”

Wang Yuan said helplessly: "I'm a target again." ”

Wang Yangming said: "It is indeed violated. ”

The main reason is that the inspector is not big, and he is at the same level as the county order, but his power is boundless. Therefore, successive dynasties have gradually increased the restrictions on the imperial history, such as stipulating the age, stipulating that the new branch jinshi shall not be filled, and so on.

But this is all, and the civil servants take the lead in violating it.

For example, the Guizhou Miaobu Rebellion, who was the leader of the counterinsurgency in history?

One is the governor Wei Ying, and the other is the governor Xu Wenhua.

Xu Wenhua is a native of Sichuan, Zhengde has been a jinshi for three years, and Yang Shen also participated in the first meeting examination that year. The relationship between the two was so good that they wore the same pair of pants, and later in the Jiajing Dynasty, Xu Wenhua even assisted Yang Shen in leading hundreds of officials to cry.

In another month, Xu Wenhua, who is not yet 30 years old, will be appointed to go to Guizhou as the inspector of the imperial history.

And this appointment has been confirmed at this time, but it has not yet been officially issued. Why didn't Yang Tinghe dare to stop Wang Yuan from serving as the governor of the imperial history in person? Because he has taken the lead in breaking the rules.

The officials are now opposed, and many of them dare not talk about age, so they only hold on to Wang Yuan's identity as a Jinshi.

Wang Yuan was quite disdainful of this: "I didn't take the initiative to ask for an official, whatever they say, anyway, Your Majesty is iron-hearted." ”

"Your Majesty has high expectations for you, otherwise there is no need for you to be a patrol." Wang Yangming said with emotion.

Zhu Houzhao should have been too disappointed in the officers and soldiers on the front line, including the eunuch Gu Dayong. Gu Gonggong was the governor of the military affairs this time, and all the Beijing camps were under his command, but after fighting for several months, the thieves actually came to Gyeonggi to join the division.

Wang Yuan's temporary position of seven grades is equivalent to being Gu Dayong's deputy, and he has the right to meddle in the military affairs of the two prefectures and two prefectures. In addition to Gu Dayong, other counterinsurgency officers and local civilian officials must listen carefully to Wang Yuan's advice.

If Wang Yuan is found to be a traitor and a criminal and delays the counterinsurgency, Wang Yuan can directly cut it first.

Of course, Zhu Houzhao can also arrange for Wang Yuan to be the military magistrate and rectify the Beizhili soldiers. However, the deputy envoy of the military garrison is the fourth grade, and the military preparation is the fifth grade, Wang Yuan is also not qualified to climb so high, and the Taoist officials below the military garrison are useless, and the two hundred cavalry are easy to be drunk by Gu Dayong.

Anyway, it is all overstepping, it is better to let Wang Yuan be the inspector of the imperial history and command the two hundred cavalry freely - Gu Dayong knows that the two hundred cavalry is the emperor's treasure, and he will definitely not dare to use it easily. It is even possible that the rebellion will end, and those cavalry will only watch from the sidelines, and at most they will be sent to sweep up the tail when the battle is won. This would be contrary to the emperor's original intentions.

Wang Yuan said: "This time the students came to visit to ask Mr. for some advice. ”

Wang Yangming said with a smile: "I don't know the detailed military situation, how dare I suggest indiscriminately." However, judging from the known military reports, the combat strength of the chaotic army is not strong, and the real tricky thing is that there are many cavalry, and the slightest defeat will be thousands of miles away, so that the officers and troops of the rebellion are exhausted. ”

"How can we prevent the rebels from escaping?" Wang Yuan asked.

"I don't know." Wang Yangming said.

Wang Yuan was a little disappointed, but he felt that it was normal, after all, he did not grasp the detailed military information, and it was difficult to make substantive judgments.

Wang Yangming said again: "Don't mention the temple, the most important thing to really fight is to attack the heart." People's hearts are unpredictable, and so is the morale of the military. If you control your own military heart and destroy the military heart of the other, you will be invincible. Your immediate priority now is to keep those 200 cavalry firmly in control. Otherwise, let alone winning the battle, it is bad if they don't listen to orders at critical moments. ”

"I know that." Wang Yuan nodded.

"Then go," Wang Yangming admonished, "from this day onwards, you must eat and sleep with the two hundred cavalry, otherwise it will be difficult for them to take their hearts." After all, they have been stationed in the leopard room for a long time, and they are all cronies around His Majesty, and they have long been proud soldiers who are not afraid of heaven and earth. ”

Wang Yuan smiled: "I'm not afraid that they are arrogant soldiers, but I'm afraid that they are wretched." ”

The battle between the Beijing camp and the rebellious army this time is very nonsense, and it is obvious that the rebellious army is holding its head and running away.

As a result, the officers and men of the Beijing battalion who won the battle always showed fear of the enemy; All kinds of rebels and thieves who suffered defeats became more and more arrogant, because those who died were all coerced by Ding Zhuang, and the casualties of the real rebel cavalry were very small.

Wang Yuan's mission this time was to eliminate the cavalry of the rebellious army.

The infantry of the rebel army cannot be killed, and after these bandit leaders escape, they can easily engulf tens of thousands of people by casually sweeping through several states and counties.

On the verge of cramming, Wang Yangming taught his disciples a few cavalry formation maps and cavalry tactics.

These are all the most basic things, Wang Yuan only needs to have a general understanding, so as not to be too uninitiated and despised by the two hundred cavalry.

Back in the dormitory, Wang Yuan was still familiar with the cavalry tactics, and Zhu Houzhao sent someone again.

A eunuch smiled and said, "Wang Hanlin, the emperor asked me to tell you, you don't have to care about anyone's orders." Just stare at those thieves and the horse team of the chaotic army, even if you don't cut off the heads of Liu Liu, Liu Qi, and Yang Hu, you will at least get a few heads of Qi Yanming and Zhu Qianhu. ”

"Commandment." Wang Yuan saluted.

The eunuch leaned sideways to give up his position, and a palace guard stepped forward and handed a horse lance to Wang Yuan: "Wang Hanlin, this is a reward from Your Majesty, I hope you can succeed." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Wang Yuan picked up the horse lance.

After the two emperors finished speaking, they left, and Wang Yuan didn't bother to make some money. After all, he was born into a poor scholar, and now he still lives in a collective dormitory, and the eunuchs and guards can understand his situation.

The horse lance has long been eliminated and is now mainly used for ceremonial occasions.

There is no way, the cost is too high, the time is too long, and the success rate of production is too low, so it is not that the local tyrants can't afford it at all.

Wang Yuan had never touched a horse lance before, and he rode a horse and waved it in the yard for a while, and found that it was quite easy to use, and it was definitely a killing weapon on the battlefield.

The next day, Wang Yuan officially took over the 200 cavalry of 3,000 battalions in front of the leopard room.
