After Li Jin heard that Xu Ding was going to set up a martial arts hall, he finally chose to be a monk and came to Donglai from Chengshi, but Tong Yuan politely refused, saying that he still liked to stay in the deep mountains of Youzhou to grow vegetables and fight boxing.

Xu Ding has no regrets about this, at least one marksmanship master is willing to teach in the martial arts hall.

So after Wang Yue waited for Li Jin to come over, the two had a discussion, and then they welcomed some peers one after another, and then went to Weiyuan Island, prepared for some time, and prepared for a formal celebration.

Now that Xu Ding is back, it is just right for him to attend.

"Good! I'll go the day after tomorrow, and I'll have to work hard for you next. Xu Dingding nodded and said he would go.

It is an important thing to talk about martial arts, and the reason why I am in a hurry to send Cai Yan and others back to the island this time is to catch up with this day.

Two days later, the celebration came as promised, Xu Ding said some words of encouragement and congratulations, and then cut the ribbon and removed the big red silk cloth on the three big plaques in the lecture hall.

Jiangwutang was established.

The first batch of trainees included some middle-level generals in the army, most of whom were under the age of 25.

There are also some good seedlings over the age of 13 in the four jurisdictions.

In this regard, it is mainly related to Yu's son Guan Ping (Romance is the righteous son, misinformation), Zhang Fei's son Zhang Bao (original match, eldest son), Huang Zhong's son Huang Xu, Huang Xu's current illness has long been cured, and he has followed his father with all his strength, and he is skilled in knives and bows.

There are also some such as Xu Sheng, a young man who defected to Donglai from Langya's family and was selected; Pan Zhang, a young man who fled from Dongjun and was selected; Ma Zhong, a young man who escaped from the Donghai County pedal boat, and others were all selected to become the first batch of students in the martial arts hall.

Students are divided into four grades according to age.

In this way, the generals in the army will naturally become the students of the highest grade, and what they learn is mainly for the way of generals, the strategy of commanding and commanding troops to resist the enemy, and the training of martial arts will be reduced accordingly.

The primary grades, on the other hand, have the most abundant learning and develop according to the all-round type.

For example, infantry courses, cavalry sections, sailor divisions, mechanical courses, military law courses, strategy courses, geography courses, and so on.

"Study hard, make progress every day, your future is very broad, the world is very big, don't be anxious, study patiently, don't be afraid to bury yourself if you have the ability, don't be afraid to miss the opportunity."

Cherish your efforts, the days in the martial arts hall will be the best and happiest in your life, I hope you will remember it in the future without regrets......" Speaking to these young people, Xu Ding has a sense of returning to the past school, once upon a time, he also stood below, listening to the teachings of the principal and the teacher above (blind *** flickering).

It was a time when I was impatient at first, but when I lost it, I missed it immensely, even though it wasn't beautiful.

So Xu Ding misses the days that are gone forever, and naturally he feels a lot and says what he thinks in his heart.

"It's my lord! I will study hard, make progress every day, strive to learn as soon as possible, and serve the Lord! Guan Ping, Zhang Bao, Huang Xu, Xu Sheng, Pan Zhang, Ma Zhong and others replied one after another.

Xu Ding pressed his hand to signal everyone to be silent, and then said: "There is no master in the school, only teachers, seniors, juniors, and classmates. ”

That's right, Xu Ding appointed himself as the mountain chief (principal) of the martial arts hall.

The lecture hall is not as good as Donglai Academy, and the people who have learned from here are all people who will hold important military positions in the local or military in the future.

The so-called power comes out of the barrel of a gun, even if Xu Ding dares to drag it out, no one dares to take up the position of mountain chief.

Everyone naturally agreed, and soon the celebration ended, and the rest of the matter was handed over to Wang Yue, Li Jin and others.

The matter of the martial arts hall came to an end for the time being, and then Xu Ding dealt with the four generals who accompanied him to the island.

These four people are Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin, Lu Dai, and Lu Chang.

Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin don't need to say much, they are Donglai who just arrived with Xiao Qiao, and they also have a set of subordinates.

And Lu Dai and Lu Chang were earlier.

Both of them voted over after hearing that Xu Ding had recruited the Governor of the Navy.

Among them, Lu Chang is a native of Bowang in Jingzhou, who is good at water warfare and understands military law, so he came to Donglai with a heartbeat.

Lv Dai, the word Dinggong, Hailing people's clan in Guangling County, Xuzhou, the south of Hailing is the Great River (Yangtze River), and the east and north are the Yellow Sea, so Lv Dai is also well versed in water since he was a child, belongs to the white strip in the waves, or the county official of Hailing County, the official eunuch was born, and can be civil and martial.

Hearing that Xu Ding was recruiting the Governor of the Water Army, he felt that the Water Army on Xu Ding's side was promising, and he would have a great opportunity, so he also came over to take a look.

Although Erlu's talent does not meet the requirements of the Governor of the Navy, he is also a talent.

Don't look at the scale of the navy here in Xu Ding now, there are a lot of soldiers and ships, but there are really not many generals in the navy.

So he said to the four: "I originally wanted to recruit a naval governor, but the person I was looking forward to has not arrived, and the merits and talents of the four of you are not up to the task for the time being, so I can only appoint you as a lieutenant at the beginning, what do you four want to say." ”

Lu Dai and Lu Chang glanced at each other, they were all members of the old Lu family, and after they came, the two were very close, so they said: "Thank you for your appreciation." ”

It is the captain who came up, which is very high, which shows that Xu Ding attaches great importance to them.

This official position is very much in line with their psychological expectations, and the second person has no objection.

The Governor of the Navy Army, just think about that position, it's not something they can get, look at Zhou Tai next to him, uh, they can't beat it.

Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin were also very happy, and also replied: "Thank you for your appreciation!" ”

But then Zhou Tai said: "Lord, can I challenge Gan Xingba?" Will he be able to take his place? ”

Xu Ding shook his head and said: "I don't object to you trying to compete with him, but even if you win, he can't replace his position, he is a navy, fighting abroad, you and Gongyi are from Jianghuai, you are more familiar with that area, and it will be of great use in the future, so you are more suitable for the navy." ”

"It's the lord, Tai understands!" Zhou Tai also knew that Gan Ning's troops were called the navy, and if they didn't fight internally, they seemed to be going to the ocean and drifting to the deep sea for a long time, so they didn't really plan to grab Gan Ning's position, they just wanted to fight with him.

I heard that now in Donglai, Gan Ning's water kung fu is the strongest.

So he wanted to fight and see who was the strongest general on the water on Xu Ding's side.

Then Xu Ding ordered all departments of the navy, and from now on, Lu Qian will be the governor of the navy, and the base camp will remain unchanged.

Zhou Tai was the commander of the Yellow Sea, Jiang Qin was the deputy commander, and Zhou Tai formed an army of 12,000 people, stationed in the southern part of Donglai County, near the bay of Buqi County (Jiaozhou Bay in Qingdao in later generations), responsible for the waters of Xuzhou and the Huai River.

Lü Dai was the commander of the East China Sea, and Lü Chang was the deputy lieutenant, forming an army of 12,000, temporarily stationed on Weiyuan Island, and was dispatched to various places to support and assist at any time, and in the future as a pioneer who entered the river and stationed in the East China Sea.
