Wang Qing and Zeng Yu left after reviewing the soldiers, and the Rui Shi Battalion naturally started training with more passion.

"Big brother, I listened to what you said just now, it seems that you are planning to restart the military merit system?" Wang Qing, as a descendant of a family of generals in the Qin Dynasty, is very familiar with the military merit system, and it can be said that the Great Qin Empire was also its success, and it was also him.

"That's right, in order to achieve my goal, the military merit system is a necessary condition." Zeng Yu knew that Wang Qing would ask, and replied affirmatively.

"But big brother, you also know the shortcomings of the military merit system, if we restart it, won't we repeat the mistakes of the past in the future." Wang Qing knew that Zeng Yu also understood this system, and he must have also known that after the Great Qin annexed the Six Kingdoms, there was not enough land to reward the meritorious soldiers, so he could only go to the frontier to open up and seize more land, resulting in the result of being warlike and dying.

"I know you're worried, but it's not as good as it was then. Whether it is the steppes in the north, or the Western Regions or Baiyue in the south, or even more distant places, there are large territories waiting for us to conquer. And all the armies we built ourselves, and I am confident enough to be able to harness this galloping chariot and keep it moving in the right direction. Zeng Yu also thought about this problem, but he had already made a plan, so he was not worried.

Moreover, he also left a way back for himself, compared to the Great Qin Empire, which could only provide soldiers with land and low-level titles below the eighth level, he could provide more, so there was no need to worry about repeating the old path of the fall of Great Qin at present.

"But I'm still a little worried."

Zeng Yu stopped, looked into Wang Qing's eyes and said, "Ziwu, do you know. What we will face next will be even more exciting than the last years of the Warring States period. The wealthy families who have accumulated for a hundred years, or the Han family, or the reckless heroes of all walks of life, they divide one side. If we develop step by step, we can't compare with them at all, as the saying goes, troubled times use heavy codes, only in this way can we hope to stand out and compete for the last hope. ”

Wang Qing looked at Zeng Yu, who was excited at this time, this was the first time he had seen Zeng Yu with such an expression. In the past, Zeng Yu looked like he was winning, and he was always full of confidence in the future, but at this time, he knew how much pressure Zeng Yu had.

"Big brother, I listen to you!" Wang Qing said with his fists clenched.

"Ziwu, you may not know how much I hope that our Huaxia can stand at the top of the whole world. If we still can't seize the last chance in this situation, then I will admit it. As long as the winner can make the Chinese nation stronger and the Chinese civilization more splendid, then I will rest assured. Zeng Yu looked up at the sky and said with emotion.

After listening to Zeng Yu's heartfelt words, Wang Qing knew how big his eldest brother's heart was. Obviously, he knew that Zeng Yu was not satisfied with the current situation in Huaxia and hoped to go further, and this required a monarch with sufficient pioneering ambitions. Their unclothed army joined the next Central Plains competition, just to raise the entry threshold, screen the weak, and leave strong enough princes, no matter whether it is success or failure, Zeng Yu may not care, he just hopes to leave enough foundation for Huaxia.

But Wang Qing didn't expect so much, what he hoped was to help his eldest brother win the final victory, so that the entire Huaxia would become stronger step by step under their own leadership.

"Big brother, don't worry. With me, the second brother, and Chengyong and them, we will always be by your side to support you, and we will definitely complete the last step. ”

"I hope that this is the case, so let's work together!" Zeng Yu patted Wang Qing's shoulder and said.

Soon the next day, Zeng Yu asked Liu Neng to send someone to inform the village chief Zhang of Lingyun Village to come over. After hearing the order, Liu Neng arranged for a soldier to go to Lingyun Village outside the manor.

Let's say here that after the renovation of Lingyunzhuang, the villagers who originally lived here were all relocated to the village next to the manor. The houses in the village are all newly built brick and wood buildings, and because of the recruitment of some displaced people, the number of households in Lingyunzhuang has increased from the original 93 to more than 210, and the total population has reached more than 1,000.

This is still Lingyunzhuang's current situation is relatively embarrassing, and it is not appropriate to recruit displaced people with great fanfare. Once Zeng Yu successfully mastered the county seat of Anping, once the news of the county commander's manor recruiting displaced people was issued, it would definitely be able to attract more displaced people.

At that time, Gude can also select enough young people for training, Zeng Yu asked Gude to wait for the opportunity to select some young and strong people before he set off, but considering that the current population of Lingyun Village is not large, and he is also responsible for clearing wasteland and cultivated land, he did not conduct any training, but only selected dozens of people as temporary guards to patrol near the manor.

After receiving the notice, Village Chief Zhang hurriedly put down the work in his hand, and the soldiers who followed the order rushed to the manor.

"Lord, Village Chief Zhang has arrived!"

The soldier took Village Chief Zhang to the meeting hall of the manor mansion and saw Zeng Yu reading a book in the main seat, so he opened his mouth to report.

"Meet the Lord!" Village Chief Zhang saw Zeng Yu and knelt down and bowed.

Zeng Yu got up and went down to help the village chief up, "Old village chief, you are an elder, you don't have to make such a big gift in the future." ”

"Lord, the old slave is excited, without you, there is no today for all the villagers of our Lingyun Village." Although a few months have passed, the old village chief is still very excited to see Zeng Yu, and tears have already appeared in his eyes.

Zeng Yu took Village Chief Zhang to sit down in the seat next to him, took his hand and said, "Village Chief Zhang, I called you here today to ask you." In our village, are there people who know medical skills, or are there people who are interested in medical skills? ”

"Huh? The lord is unwell there, there is a doctor in the village, but he can only treat some minor problems, if the lord doesn't mind, I called the kid over to check the pulse. Village Chief Zhang said worriedly.

"No, no, that's the case, I went to Luoyang this time and brought back a few famous doctors. He is a disciple of the current imperial doctor, and I want him to help me train some doctors, so that it will be much easier for everyone to see a doctor in the future. ”

It turned out that after Zeng Yu asked the soldiers to find out the location of the imperial doctor's order, he visited some old imperial doctors of today's doctors with the token. These old imperial doctors also knew that the Han family was about to decline now, and since Zeng Yu came to ask for help, after they discussed, they sent two disciples to follow Zeng Yu to Anping County. This can be said to be an early investment by the doctor, who would rarely go to a certain prince, as long as the situation is determined, the people in power will naturally invite them.

But since Zeng Yu belongs to the Guigu lineage, he has a long history with Huang Lao's faction, and he also has a certain relationship with Huang Lao's family, not to mention that they know the strength of the Guigu family that has developed over hundreds of years, so they sent their disciples to Zeng Yu, which can be regarded as a show of goodwill to the Guigu family represented by Zeng Yu. At the same time, the doctor also broke his previous management and made an early investment, originally the doctor would rarely go to a certain prince, as long as the situation is determined, the people in power will naturally invite them, anyway, they will not say to go into battle to fight the world or something.

"The lord cares about us so much, so that the old man really doesn't know how to repay him." When Village Chief Zhang heard what Zeng Yu said, he knelt down directly from the chair and hugged Zeng Yu and cried excitedly.

But this is understandable, after all, even ordinary civilians, no one will care about their life, old age, sickness and death. The government or others would only go to them to ask for money when they collected taxes, but they never cared about themselves.

And Zeng Yu, the lord, not only gave them a free identity, but now he cares about their health, no wonder Village Chief Zhang is so excited.

"Village Chief Zhang doesn't have to be excited, everyone's life will definitely get better and better in the future, not only if you are sick, there will be a doctor, but also for children in the future to have a husband to teach you to read and write, this is my Zeng Yu's promise to everyone."

"The old man of Lingyun Village has thanked the lord!" Village Chief Zhang made a big bow and said gratefully.

"Village chief, you get up first, you haven't answered me yet, I just asked you," Zeng Yu helped the village chief up and said with a smile.

"Lord Qiqi, there is currently a doctor Zhang Lin in the village, as for whether other people want to study medicine, I don't know, let me go back and ask them." Village Chief Zhang thought for a while, but he didn't have a clue, only knew that Zhang Lin, the barefoot doctor in the village.

"It's okay, the village chief, you go back to the village and ask, and tell me that Yachuan is alive when the time comes." In a few days, I will arrange to meet with them, and by the way, I will introduce the famous doctors in Luoyang to everyone. ”

"Then I'll go back and ask the villagers first."

"Good. Xiao Liu, help me send one to Village Chief Zhang. ”

After receiving the order, the soldier who came with the village chief just now rushed back to Lingyun Village with the village chief. As soon as the village chief returned to the village, he informed everyone of the households, including some of the displaced people recruited later. When all the villagers came to the open space in the village to gather, Village Chief Zhang conveyed Zeng Yu's words to everyone just now. When the villagers heard that they would be treated by skilled doctors when they were sick in the future, they did not have to lie in bed and wait for death, and that their children would have the opportunity to study in the future and become superior scholars, and everyone couldn't help but be overjoyed. I don't know who took the lead, everyone suddenly knelt down one after another, facing the direction of Lingyunzhuang, "Thank you to the lord ~ Thank you lord ~".

At this time, it was not only the original tenant farmers who became the villagers of Lingyun Village after they were freed, but also the new villagers composed of the displaced people who were accepted later, and they regarded Zeng Yu as the lord who had been loyal to him all his life. Because of Zeng Yu, the lord, they have today, and their children have a better tomorrow.

Of course, Zeng Yu didn't know this, he only knew that what these villagers were pursuing was only part of their future goals. His own road is still very long, as the saying goes, "the road is long, I will go up and down and seek!" ”
