Chapter 103: Hua Rong's Conspiracy
Liu Xia's army and the people were not together, Liu Xia led the new barracks and the personal guard regiment in the front, the people in the middle, and the last was the lion battalion and the wolf howling battalion.
The thin man's previous location was not far from Liu Xia, and after he walked out of the crowd, he dragged his already tired legs and walked towards the station of the new barracks step by step.
In the recruit camp, Liu Xia was taking ideological education classes with the more than 3,000 surrendered troops, and Zhang Liang ignored the cries of those recruits at this time, and kept training those recruits. Originally, Chen Liu, who was brainwashing the soldiers, had nothing to do at this time.
Before, Liu Xia asked Chen Liu to go to the army to find some people who knew words and read books, but Chen Liu looked around, and found that five people who only knew some words came back, and they could only help Chen Liu write a word.
This made Chen Liu very disappointed, but then he was also relieved, after all, these soldiers were originally composed of the lowest level of the common people, and some of them were born from poles, where can they write? After all, they don't have the capital to study at all.
As the number of Liu Xia's army increased, the requirements in all aspects became greater and greater, and the problem of lack of talent was gradually exposed.
Let's just say that there is no deputy in the recruit camp now, there is no deputy in their military department, and even the logistics department has no deputy.
Therefore, Chen Liu has been worrying about finding a writer these days, and there are a lot of good people who have read books, and even a lot of talents, but now they are not willing to follow Liu Xia, and Liu Xia does not want to recruit from there, after all, those people's loyalty to the court is higher than their own loyalty, if they are powerful in the future, and they are loyal to the Southern Ming court, then ......
Therefore, Liu Xia is now recruiting some important talents to recruit those who are down, because these people know sorrow, understand the absurdity and chaos of the court, and have no good impression of the court.
At this time, Chen Liu sat bored on the side, still holding the feather fan in his hand and swinging.
He began to fall into the memories of himself from a servant to a military advisor who had been serving an army of nearly 10,000 people. From a lowly person to a big man, like a dream.
Chen Liu is a show talent in the Chongzhen years, this show is what he took many times to get the test, due to the limited number of places, so the first time the big family in the county bribed the examiner, the examiner directly crossed out his Chen Liu's name, so that a few people who don't know a word become a showman.
The second time, because he didn't give a gift, his name was still crossed by the examiner.
But he Chen Liu just didn't want to give up, until the fourth time a new examiner came, although this examiner was not an honest person, and he was also bribed, but he saw that Chen Liu's article was really well written, so he didn't cross it out, although he didn't get to the top of the list, but he was also a minister.
I thought I could live a good life, but I didn't expect that my wife and children would be harmed by the Zhao family. In the end, he had no choice but to become a slave of the Zhao family, thanks to the general who avenged himself, and now he still uses himself so much, Chen Liu secretly swore in his heart that he must be loyal to Liu Xia in the future.
At this time, a figure passed by Chen Liu, Chen Liu's eyes darkened, and when he looked up, he saw a dilapidated young man, quite his own 'style' back then.
Chen Liu then shouted to the young man: "Hey, this is the barracks, you are not allowed to go further, who are you?" Don't you know that you are not allowed to enter casually here? ”
In fact, there are soldiers guarding him further along, even if Chen Liu doesn't remind him at this time, someone will stop him if he takes a few more steps.
The young man was the thin man, as soon as the man saw Chen Liu's dress, and then looked at the person's appearance, he recognized this person as Liu Xia's military advisor at a glance, as this man who was also a literati, he naturally had a good impression of Chen Liu, so he hurriedly bowed and said: "Late life, Chongzhen sixteen years of talent, originally a person from Fengyang Mansion, the family fell to this point, and saw the general benevolence, so he had the idea of joining the army." ”
When Chen Liu heard this, he turned out to be a showman, and his heart suddenly became happy, Chen Liu himself is also a showman, and now there is another showman, isn't the helper he has been looking for for so long coming?
"You're going to join the army? You don't know that joining the army is to go to the battlefield, how can you, a weak scholar, pick up a knife and gun? Chen Liu asked.
Bi Shu was a little angry when he heard this, and his good impression of Chen Liu just now also decreased, so he said with some excitement: "How can adults look down on people so much? Although the late student is a weak scholar and his physical fitness is not good, he will work hard in the next meeting, and he is confident that he can be the same as those soldiers. Kill one person in ten steps, and don't stay for a thousand miles! ”
"Horn horn" Chen Liu clapped his hands and said: "Well said, it really deserves to be a literati like us." ”
Seeing Chen Liu praising himself, Bishu was a little happy, so he said modestly: "The adults have won the award, talk nonsense in the next nonsense, and let the adults laugh." ”
"Hahaha" Chen Liu said with a smile: "With such ambition, you will definitely achieve great things in the future, and this official will not be mistaken." ”
Chen Liu is Liu Xiafeng's military advisor sacrificial wine, which is equivalent to the rank of a staff officer in the Ming Dynasty, so he can call himself his own official.
"However, this officer does not recommend that you go to join the army."
Na Bishu asked, "I don't know how adults say that?" ”
Chen Liudao: "You are a scholar or a talent, wouldn't it be a pity if you joined the army?" Now that there is a shortage of scholars in the army, you can come, and if you really have real talent and learning, this officer will definitely recommend you to the general. ”
Bi Shu didn't expect such a good thing, Liu Xia is a big man after all, where can a low-level person like him be touched? Holding an important official position in Liu Xiajun, he hadn't thought about it before, after all, he was not familiar with Liu Xia, and Liu Xia would not notice him. And there is no way to join the army as a soldier, if he can have a choice, he will not be a soldier after he finishes his art, as a literati still likes to be an official.
Now Chen Liu is willing to recommend himself to Liu Xia, which makes Bi Shu feel happy.
So Bi Shu hurriedly bowed to Chen Liu: "Thank you for your love, although I am not talented in my later life, I have some knowledge of the Four Books and Five Classics and some historical books and military books." ”
Chen Liu nodded and said: "The Four Books and Five Classics in our army are not of much use, but since you have spent the military books, you can still use them." ”
Chen Liu has followed Liu Xia for so many days, and gradually gave Liu Xia the same thing, a little tired of the eight strands of the Ming Dynasty, especially those nerds who only know how to memorize the Four Books and Five Classics.
What's the use of being familiar with the four books and five classics even if you memorize them? At least Liu Xia doesn't need people who can only read four books and five classics at present, such as letting you be a military advisor and letting you think of a strategy, you haven't read the military books, and you are full of people, how can you make suggestions?
Besides, let you teach the people to grow crops better, but you don't know when the farming season is, how to do this? Wait a minute.
The classics of Confucianism are just some truths that make people learn to be human beings and learn to be human beings. A person can't just know the truth of being a human being, but not the way to do things.
Don't know how to do things and how to do things?
If Liu Xia has a champion around him who can memorize the Four Books and Five Classics and the Eight Shares Literary Examination, but others can't do it, and a person who doesn't know much about the Four Books and Five Classics, but can make military strategies and fight. Let Liu Xia choose between two of them, and Liu Xia will definitely choose the latter over the former.
No matter how familiar you are with the four books and five classics of poetry, books and etiquette, there is no practical school.
Na Bishu heard Chen Liu's words and retorted: "My lord, these four books and five classics are authentic, why are they useless? ”
Chen Liu smiled: "Authentic? Then you said that when these two armies were fighting, could you write an eight-strand essay to help the general win the battle? Is it possible to drive out the tartars? ”
Chen Liu's words immediately made Bi Shu speechless.
…………
The tiger prison was closed, and it was already dark by this time.
The Tiger Ben Regiment set up camp at a mile below the pass, and the distance can be described as close, very close.
The inside of the camp was brightly lit, and from the top of the gate, you could see that the soldiers in the camp were gulping down the wine they didn't know where they got it, and some of them were already dizzy and couldn't walk steadily.
There wasn't even a single person standing guard at the camp gate, as if the whole camp had gone to drink.
And the shouting of the people in the camp was quite loud, and you could hear it when the door was closed.
Closed, Na Huarong crossed his arms and looked coldly at the Tiger Ben Regiment camp, making the literati beside him frown.
The literati thought about it for a long time, and finally thought of what Hua Rong wanted to do, so he said: "The general can't do that, if something happens, then ......"
This Hua Rong finally got a chance to express himself, and was happy on his head, listening to the disappointing words of this literati, his face suddenly turned cold, and said: "Hmph, what's wrong?" Everything is in the hands of this general. General Ben will let you see how General Ben defeated the enemy army! ”
said that Hua Rong is leaving, where is the literati willing?
So he hurriedly went up to block it, and hugged Hua Rong to prevent Hua Rong from leaving.
Na Huarong was angry and said, "Come on, tie up this unknown dog thing, and let him see how the general kills the enemy!" ”
Hua Rong's voice fell, and two soldiers ran from the side, and the two of them pulled the literati down from Hua Rong's body, and then tied him to the pillar of the closed room.
The literati howled at this time: "General, no! Generals, no! ”
"General, no!"
No matter how the literati shouted, Hua Rong ignored it at all, and walked towards the gate.
"How many war horses do we have now?"
Hua Rong asked the guards beside him.
The guard said, "General, there are three hundred war horses. But it's a bad horse. ”
"Bad horses? It's fine, as long as it's a horse, it's okay to run with four hooves. Go and order 300 men to stand by for General Ben, who will attack the camp tonight. ”
Hua Rong thought of his plan and was proud of his cleverness, and at this time he already thought of the scene of going to Beijing to meet Dorgon.
