The way of the emperor is not a blind suppression, but a way to balance. This point, Han King Hu Guizi did it very well.

Knowing how to make good use of people, as long as you can still squeeze the juice, you will not let go.

"Hugh, now you understand why Uncle dares to use this group of people, right?"

Hu Xiu understood what the King of Han meant, but if he was now the emperor of the Hu State, let him teach a group of people who were once the masters of the country.

Hu Xiu couldn't do it, maybe he had too many ideas. Even let them study gunpowder, after getting the results of their research. This will also be ruthless, thinking of ways to secretly kill this group of people, or imprison them.

After all, the impact of this gunpowder in ancient times was too great, think about what would happen if you planted a bunch of mines where the enemy army had to pass.

Unless the other side can fly, it will blow you up into the sky. So the less people know about the invention of gunpowder, the better.

It may be that Hu Xiu's thoughts are too cautious, and he is the master who is difficult to achieve great things, but this is what he thinks in his mind at the moment.

"Don't think about it anymore, follow my uncle to the outskirts of the city to pick soldiers, and after the pick, I have something to explain to you."

King Han skipped Hu Xiu, opened the door of the house, and the sunlight came in little by little. Today's rare good weather, there are no clouds at all. Looking at the big sun in the sky, I don't know when I got to the middle.

Hu Xiu still feels that he seems to have practiced only one second, why is it noon in the next second?

……

At the end of the day, on the outskirts of Ping'an City, a large group of people escorted the two of them, and they didn't know where they were going.

Among them, the one in a bright yellow robe was chatting with the young man in green clothes, walking in the forefront, and laughing heartily from time to time.

The tall horse that sat down was led by two old men in plainclothes, followed by guards ten feet behind.

It's off the beaten track, but the fields are beautiful. The majestic breeze is blowing, as if there is an illusion, the winter solstice has gone, and spring and summer are coming.

"Uncle, from just now to now, why hasn't anyone touched this place?"

Hu Xiu also let go of the chat, he, the emperor's uncle, really didn't have any emperor shelf for him.

"No nomads are allowed to appear within ten miles of the army station. If the sergeant on patrol encounters it, he will be killed by random arrows. ”

Don't you give any chance of explanation? Hu Xiu thought about it secretly, this kind of thing is really normal, after all, this is a dynasty with an emperor.

After walking for a while, I saw a group of more than 20 sergeants wearing iron armor. Walking through the country roads, looking at their iron armor, how can it be exactly the same as the Praetorian guards who accompanied them?

"Centurion of the Praetorian Army, see Your Majesty."

The group walked very fast, and the line did not loosen, and a few of them, judging by their faces, looked like the master who had killed people and was not easy to mess with.

But when he met the king of Han, he took off his helmet and knelt down on one knee. So, this emperor and army are forbidden troops?

"Get up and go to the camp."

He no longer marched at the speed of You Chun, and the King of Han didn't say much, and the soldiers in front of him moved forward quickly. The two old men who led the horses, Hu Xiu also knew, Wu Zhong and Ma Gan, who were above the main hall that day, and captured the envoys of Wuguo.

Don't look at the two of them although they are a little old, but their martial arts are very strong, I don't see the horse sitting down, don't let him lead it, even if they walk on the small road, they can keep driving at a constant speed or accelerate walking.

It doesn't feel bumpy either, it doesn't feel like you're riding a horse, it's driving.

The trail is quiet, the road is getting more and more remote, and Hu Xiu seems to have found his way back.

After a while, it suddenly opened up in front of me, and I saw a barracks surrounded by a fence not far away. There was no greenery in it except the grass.

On the school grounds, rows of soldiers stand straight, and even in the cold winter, they can't wear extra clothes. Two single clothes, and then put on a unified iron armor outside, looking at the past from a distance, one by one is majestic.

King Han dismounted and walked up to the high platform, Hu Xiu followed, and the two plainclothes eunuchs at the back also followed, walking at the rear.

Then the king of Han inevitably began to give a speech in a cliché, and the content of the speech was nothing more than words of encouragement. It made the people drowsy, but the soldiers below listened to the screams.

Hey~ What else do you say that the ancestors of the group of craftsmen are the most confusing, obviously this emperor, there is always a way to make others surrender, do you think this is strange?

King Han quickly finished speaking, and beckoned Hu Xiu to come from the high platform.

"Hugh, I've been watching it for so long, have you ever taken a fancy to Xinyi?"

Hu Xiu was stunned when asked, this is not picking a daughter-in-law, the word Xinyi is used here, it seems a little inappropriate.

"It's all right, I don't pick it."

Where is Hu Xiu not picking, but there are too many people, just look at it from above. Densely packed, all of them are human heads, dazzling, and I don't know where to pick them.

"Hehe~ It's better for you to pick it yourself."

The school field is very large and there are many people, but these people are like they are divided, and this group of soldiers and the soldiers on the exception side are always separated by a distance of close to the two people.

Every time he passed a group of soldiers, Hu Xiu just looked at them casually, but saw that they seemed to straighten their waists again.

The soldiers of the Emperor's army were lucky, but they were also the most unfortunate, fortunately, they were the emperor's personal guards, and in most cases, they were not needed to go to battle.

If you can't go to war, it means that there is no military merit to be gained, and there is no reward. But which of these soldiers doesn't want to climb up step by step?

And in the emperor's army, no matter how much you climb, it is just that, that is, from centurion, thousand, to ten thousand.

There are only no generals, because they don't need to fight, and there is only one of them, that is, the king of Han, and they can obey him.

Therefore, Hu Xiu's selection of troops again is an opportunity, and it is also an opportunity for them to become generals.

But it doesn't mean that they are not loyal enough to the country and to the king of Han. They didn't rebel, they just wanted to make meritorious deeds, and after they got married, their descendants also had a place of shelter.

"Just these soldiers."

Hu Xiu followed the king of Han, going around, looking at the soldiers from time to time, but saw that among the group of soldiers, there was an old acquaintance, who was the guard surnamed Lin.

However, there was something strange about this group of soldiers, several of them had sackcloth wrapped in sackcloth on their heads, and the leader was a boy with a silver spear in one hand, and a sackcloth hanging from one arm, which seemed to be wounded.

"Hugh, are you sure?"

"Hmm."

Hu Xiu didn't choose this batch of soldiers because of Lin Guard. After all, no matter how you choose, isn't it still the same, choosing soldiers, or choosing what you see and know best.

"You've figured it out, there's a person here, but it's not easy to manage, and he's very good at doing things."

"It's okay, that's it."

Bad to manage? How could this be so difficult to manage?

Then he selected some soldiers, and after gathering a thousand people, Hu Xiu thought about whether he could take these people into Ping'an City, after all, he brought his own army into the city, and it was majestic to think about it.

But a sentence from King Han extinguished this thought:

"What, you found a place for this army of 1,000 people?"

Ten more courtyards the size of Hu Xiu are not enough for 1,000 people.

After thinking about it, these thousand people should continue to stay here, and they still have to eat the big pot of rice in the emperor and the army.

On the way back, a thought suddenly occurred in my mind.

"Uncle, didn't you say before that after you finish picking soldiers, you will have something to tell me?"

I saw that King Han's expression changed a few times, as if he was hesitating something.

"Yo~ Look at this uncle's brain, I forgot about that thing, I thought about it in a few days, and I'll tell you about it."

Looking at Hu Guizi's appearance, Hu Xiu looked suspicious, he could forget everything.

Although he was puzzled, he didn't ask too much, and returned to Ping'an City and Hu Wangfu with peace of mind. What the emperor doesn't want to say, can he still force him to say?

After arriving at the small courtyard, he hastily ate something, looked at the sky and was not early, took a medicinal bath, thinking that he would accompany Shi Ling'er back to his mother's house tomorrow, and he would go to bed early.

But he was entangled by everyone, discussing that he wanted to continue to name the gunpowder, Lamu's idea was the most bizarre, the name was taken, what was called "Bombardment Medicine".

What's the matter, is she trying to blow up God? It is said that the ancient people were also afraid of this God, and I don't think it's all so, there are always a few people who are bold.

In the end, Hu Xiu made a final decision, and it was called Fuhuo, and the names of the other moths were all invalidated.

At the same time, the night was also deep, and the palace at this time was in the dark hall.

"Today, let's talk about it."

"At three o'clock in the afternoon today, on Xuanwu Street, someone deliberately made trouble, until one person was seriously injured, and now he has been arrested and imprisoned by Xin Dutou, and he will be assigned to Fujian at a later date."

"Don't talk about this yet, let's talk about Zhou Shen."

King Han interrupted him bluntly, as if he was a little anxious.

"The night before yesterday, I investigated, fortunately, the time of death did not exceed two hours, I sniffed all the way, tracked all the way to a bandit's den, and preliminarily concluded that there were no masters above the seventh order.

Today, I investigated in depth, and there were five sixth-order masters in it, more than a dozen fifth-order masters scattered around, some fourth-order ones, and the most were second- and third-order martial artists. ”

"Are you sure what you're saying is accurate?"

"This..."

The man in the shadows just wanted to say yes, but hesitated, he knew what King Han was going to do. If he says yes, if something goes wrong later, he's going to be out of luck.

"I'm not completely sure, Your Majesty, I'll go and investigate again tomorrow."

"No, there is no such thing as a perfect thing. If Hugh wants to make a difference, he has to take the risk, and he still has to go through the experience, but..."

King Han looked at the man in the shadows.

"You have to protect Hu Xiu, if he loses a single hair, you know what will happen to you."

Isn't this a double standard, while saying that Hu Xiu would be risky in his training, but he was afraid that he would encounter danger and let people secretly protect him from harm.

His Majesty the King of Han is so powerful.

"Oh, listen to Your Majesty's will!"

I only heard the sound of kneeling on one knee in the empty hall, this person was actually the emperor who knelt down in accordance with the rules of the army!

"Get up, the rest of the story."

~~

As the night wore on, the door to a large hall somewhere in the palace was opened, and a figure emerged from within.

Under the moonlight, it can be seen that it is a young man's face, with feminine facial features, and wearing the clothes of a eunuch. But as if he didn't dare to stay here, he went straight to the gate of the palace, and the guards at the door seemed to be used to it.

Without asking too much, he glanced at the token he took out and let him out.

……

ps: Ten zhang is about thirty meters. The meaning of the school field is the production area of the training soldiers or martial arts competitions in ancient times.
