In fact, since the flood of the Yellow River in the fourth year of the Apocalypse, the vitality in Xuzhou has been somewhat damaged. In the case of a great economic derangement from what it used to be, there are many inevitable phenomena of urban construction, the restoration of their own industries, and many other accumulated demands, and even in the name of stealing. In addition, after the disaster, there were many land disputes, and the social contradictions in Xuzhou reached a peak when they were not very light. However, this place was not a place where the public was completely governed and obeyed before, and this kind of factor made Xiao Xuan's very rough land movement not too big a basket for the time being, at least the purpose of training and expanding the army was achieved.

After the first company of the volunteer battalion was expanded to the size of the regiment, and even re-expanded to the scale of the brigade, Xiao Xuan could receive many detailed reports every day, which could be corroborated and corroborated with the military intelligence system. There were almost no signs of obvious falsehoods, which were not seen when Xiao Xuan was in charge of the daily camp management of the teaching brigade. Considering the great difficulty of systematically falsifying the officers and soldiers who could prove their full combat effectiveness on the battlefield, this also began to make Xiao Xuan realize a problem.

If you are a battalion commander or company commander, you have to spend a lot of time with the soldiers and be personally involved in the management work. Just like the company commander and instructor are the roles that are often contacted in the army. However, the battalion commander or instructor is obviously at a certain distance from the soldiers. In the wartime conditions of this era, the battalion commander often had to be with the troops all the time. I see the officers every day, and I see the soldiers every day, and I don't see you when you look down. When you become a cadre at the regimental level and above, you only have the need to command with the troops in wartime, and in peacetime, you can leave many things to the deputy regiment commander and the battalion commanders. When one's military status is above the regiment, there is no requirement to be present in person.

These laws of the modern army may be bold or even unreliable in this era. Because the organizational system of the ancient army was very dependent on the relationship between people. If you are far away from the officer group below, the generals and colonels below will often not regard you as one of their own, and engaging in the regiments and gangs under feudalism will even bring all kinds of drawbacks. In the past, Xiao Xuan didn't know where the danger of "soldiers don't know generals, generals don't know soldiers", and it was only in the long-term process of leading the troops that he realized some truths.

However, when the troops led by oneself are a group with idealistic political ideology, a force that "volunteers to fight," and uses these revolutionary seeds as a group of officers to build a new type of army, the phenomenon of "mountainism" will still exist, but it does not seem to be "mountainism" in the ancient sense. The direct costs of leading such a team at the top are very small, and the management costs are low.

In this case, Xiao Xuan also had enough time to spend more of his experience on the children who came to Xuzhou with the army. In order to guide these children's interest in the military, the "mother of modern science". Some of the team's operational summaries and operational reports were also brought to the children for discussion.

Girls at the age of five, six, or even seven or eight years old are not very different from boys if they are not deliberately guided by gender awareness. Without making the difficulty too big and moderate, it was easy to make dozens of little girls who were the seeds of normal students more interested than the teenagers of the Imperial Horse Prison back then.

After all, although fourteen or fifteen-year-old teenagers have often not survived independently and are not heavily influenced by society, most of them have lost the interest in new things when they were young.

At this time, Xiao Xuan seems to have more understanding of the educational model and ideological intentions of the West in modern times: from the time of primary school, cultivating interest in learning and career, and strengthening children's talents are the most important goals. A real cultural class doesn't require too many hours of class time to be most consolidated. If you want to consolidate, a few years of secondary school are also enough.

But even so, from the temporary campus around the children to the various government and military affairs that Xiao Xuan must be responsible for, it still makes Xiao Xuan not seem to be very idle in normal times. The things in the volunteer division can save me a lot of worry, but the composition of the other brigades of the revolutionary army is not up to that standard. Throughout Xuzhou and even along the canal, even serious violations of law and discipline have emerged one after another. Although the grassroots reform is only limited to Xuzhou alone, there are only about one million people, and there are not too many complicated places, and many problems have arisen at the grassroots level. These include the infringement of the interests of the people by the newly established peasant associations, the struggle for clan power in the process of building democracy at the grassroots level, and even all kinds of undesirable phenomena.

Of course, unlike in peacetime, extraordinary events can be solved by many "simple and rude" means. For example, the purge of the free mind of "although the small and big prison cannot be clearly detected must be affectionate" took more than a month, and the busyness on weekdays began to be reduced a lot.

In the past, as a feudal emperor in nature, Xiao Xuan still respected the experience of "the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics", but after having a revolutionary hole card, Xiao Xuan's concerns about the "dictatorship of foreign relatives" are completely different. Tian Xiuying also helped a lot in many civil affairs in Beizhili, Shandong and other places other than military affairs. Chongzhen's three years have been spent in this kind of busyness inside and out.

What Tian Xiuying didn't expect was that on a night near early spring after the first lunar month, Xiao Xuan didn't just go through the motions like before, but for the first time like a real husband. Didn't drink alcohol and flirt excessively before going to bed, or did things that seemed to be done to avoid getting pregnant during intercourse. Since ascending the throne, at least in the feelings of Tian Xiuying and others, this still seems to be a very rare thing.

"Aren't you afraid that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who has almost no competition, will come to fill in the battle after more than ten years?" Under the excitement, Tian Xiuying also laughed openly. Of course, when such words came out, Tian Xiuying also felt that she might be taking a risk, and she regretted it a little.

Xiao Xuan said bluntly: "To be honest, I was really worried in the past, the affairs of the country and the border have not yet been cleared, and the princes who have grown up have begun to block me. However, this is not the same as in the past, new forces have grown, and the times will change in the future, which will not be long in coming. If I didn't have that confidence, I wouldn't be like this today ... ”
