On the tenth day of the first month of October in the golden autumn, Liu Yi opened a recruitment in Xiangping City, and publicly assessed those who should come to prepare for the official position.

The Xiying campus has been divided into two parts, the left is the assessment of civil officials, which is made by Li Tao, and the right is the assessment of military generals, which is selected by Zhao Yun.

There was an endless stream of people who came to watch, and after a while, the Xiying school field was surrounded by a flood, and it was indeed the first time that the public recruitment of officials did not collect money and did not ask about their background.

"Dang!"

A startling gong sounded, Zhao Yun boarded the temporary martial arts platform, and shouted: "Fathers and fellow villagers, today I am entrusted by Lord Taishou to open a martial arts platform, as long as you have the ability, don't say that Wu Chang and Shi Chang are all unified, and it is okay." ”

"Brothers, come up!"

With Zhao Yun's shouting, the ten Black Flag Battalion soldiers turned over to the stage, hugged their fists at Zhao Yun and said, "See Lord Commander!" ”

"Excuse me!"

Zhao Yun said solemnly: "Today, the ten of you will be the contestants of the Wu Commander's assessment, and you will not be killed." ”

"No!"

Ten people responded in unison.

"Who's going to try it first?"

Zhao Yun shouted.

These ten people are all the captains of the Black Flag Battalion's Wuhuan soldiers, and they are indeed a few points weaker than the captains of the Xuanjia Army, but they are also fair and just as the evaluators of the captains.

"General, your words count, I only need to hit one of them to be the commander?"

A man with a tiger's back and a bear's waist immediately shouted.

"Of course, strong men can leave their names."

The man hugged his fists and said: "The villain Zhuojun Zhao Daniu." ”

"Good! Zhao Zhuangshi, come to the stage to compete! ”

Zhao Daniu jumped onto the competition platform, and immediately won the applause of the besiegers in the audience.

"This official, offended!"

Zhao Daniu pointed to a Wuhuan Wu Commander who was about the same height as himself, picked a long stick, and stared at the opponent with a focused expression.

The Wuhuan Wu Commander understood, and also drew a long stick, and shouted: "Look at the move!" “

At that moment, the two competed, and the remaining nine Wu Chang flashed off the competition platform and watched the competition between the two on the stage.

After the two fought for more than 20 moves, not to mention, this Zhao Da Niu really had a bit of kung fu, and the Wuhuan Wu Chang who beat him was defeated and retreated.

"The competition is over, Zhao Daniu wins!"

Seeing that Wu Huan Wu Commander had already retreated to the edge, Zhao Yun immediately announced.

The two stopped, clasped each other's fists and saluted, and then lined up on both sides and watched Zhao Yun walk onto the competition platform.

"Zhao Zhuangshi, you are now the captain of the army, do you want to continue to compete? You can choose whatever you want. ”

Zhao Daniu laughed hesitantly and replied: "General, my mother told me when I was a child, I can't eat a fat man in one bite, and if I can defeat this official, the villain is already very content." ”

In fact, from the process of the competition just now, Zhao Yun has already measured Zhao Daniu's ability, if he wants to further challenge those strengths, it is indeed a little reluctant.

"Good! Someone came, brought Brother Zhao back to the barracks, and distributed weapons and armor. ”

Immediately, a soldier came to the stage and led Zhao Daniu to the barracks.

Zhao Yun shouted loudly again: "Everyone has seen it!" It's that simple, does anyone want to join the army? ”

"I ......"

"Count me in ......"

The competition suddenly began to be lively, and the people who signed up for it one after another, some of them succeeded in the challenge and some failed in the challenge.

As for the selection of civil servants on the left, it is a different scene.

Li Tao personally went into battle and assessed them one by one, first to assess their ability to discriminate, and then to assess their management ability.

Li Tao approached a man in shabby clothes and asked, "Where are you from?" ”

"Villain Liaoxi Mayi, meet the adults.

"Where's the tutelage?"

Ma Yi's face was slightly embarrassed, and he replied in a low voice: "The villain has been a disciple at Mr. Bookkeeper's house and peeked at some classics. ”

"The lord often says, heroes don't ask about their origins, you don't have to be too restrained, I just ask at random, I'll ask you, two women fight for a child, and go to court, if you are a county official, how should you do this?"

Ma Yi asked, "How old is the child?" ”

Li Tao replied: "I am still young, and I am already frightened and out of order, and I can't talk to myself. ”

"Can there be people from the countryside to testify?"

Li Tao replied again: "No one can tell if they flee and come." ”

Ma Yi was stunned and fell into deep thought, and after a while, as if throwing away the clouds, he replied: "My lord, the villain has thought of it." ”

"Speak quickly!"

Li Tao was overjoyed and hurriedly asked.

Ma Yi said slowly: "You can let the two of you pull one of the child's hands, and whoever wins the pull will be the child's." ”

Several candidates next to him laughed and said, "What kind of trick is this, isn't it just nonsense, haha......"

Only Li Tao's face changed, he looked at Ma Yi with interest, and asked, "Tell me more, why is this?" ”

Ma Yi explained: "As the saying goes, the doll is the flesh of the mother's heart, the child is young, the body is fragile, how to withstand the pull of two adults, after the force, it will inevitably cry, the first to let go, must be the mother." ”

After speaking, those who made fun of Ma Yi just now were suddenly speechless, this is indeed the fastest and most effective way.

Li Tao nodded, and asked again: "If you are a local county magistrate, seeing that spring plowing has arrived, but there are droughts and it is difficult to open an inch of land, what should you do?" ”

Ma Yi asked, "Where is it?" ”

Li Tao replied with a smile: "It's in Liaodong." ”

"Where is Liaodong?"

Li Tao didn't expect this Ma Yi to ask in such detail, and immediately replied: "It's in Xiangping City." ”

Ma Yi said embarrassedly: "The adults are smiling, the so-called adaptation to local conditions, survival in the right place, each place is different, so the villain has to ask clearly before he can answer." ”

"Since it is in Xiangping City, you can dig channels, divert water for irrigation, or dig deep artificial wells and canals, and accumulate water into an abyss."

Li Tao said with a smile: "Such a huge project, I am afraid that it will be difficult to achieve results in three or five months, and by then, the spring ploughing has passed, and the autumn harvest is hopeless." ”

Ma Yi arched his hand and said: "My lord, the dry floods, are not human power, since the drought is a foregone conclusion, if there is no channel irrigation, only rely on manpower to carry water for irrigation, time-consuming and laborious, not to mention, the harvest is also small, it is better for the government to raise funds, disaster relief, and then organize manpower, dig channels, if this season is not planted, it doesn't matter, once the channel is built, whether it is spring ploughing or autumn planting in the future, it will benefit a lot." ”

Li Tao listened to it and was greatly moved, this person is good, and it is not an exaggeration to be a county order, he is really a hero who doesn't ask about his background!

"Ma Yi, are you willing to go to Gaoguryi in Xuansu County as the county commander?"

Li Tao asked with a smile.

Magistrate?

Immediately surprised the people on the side, and then all looked at Ma Yi with envy and hatred, Gao Juli is the county governor of Xuansu County, and being the county commander of Gao Juli can be described as having a bright future!

Ma Yi's face was stunned, and he hesitated: "My lord, I'm afraid it's difficult for the villain to take on this heavy responsibility." ”

"Haha......"

Li Tao smiled and said: "This matter is so decided, you still have relatives at home, go back and clean up, take them on the road together, and go to Goguryi to be the county commander, I will make it clear to Lord Taishou." ”

Ma Yibai said: "There is only one old mother in the family, who is over sixty years old, and she is worried that she has nowhere to settle, thank you for your success." ”

"It should be."

With Ma Yi's example of becoming famous in one fell swoop, everyone behind them worked hard to get a good official position, but they were all unsatisfactory, far less than half of Ma Yi.
