Zhen Qian remembered the nine tests and nine techniques of the late Qing Dynasty famous general Zuo Zongtang to select talents.

The so-called nine tests are nine test methods: send to remote areas to observe whether they are loyal to their duties; Assign to the nearest office to observe whether he is serious and prudent; Assign complex tasks and observe their talents; Assign a sudden mission to observe its wit; Temporarily put forward an agreement to observe its creditworthiness; and put him in custody of his goods, and to observe his character; Tell him that he is in danger and observe his discipline; Drunk him with wine, and observe his manners; Let him mingle with each other, and see if he is lustful.

The so-called nine techniques are the nine skill standards: those who abide by moral etiquette, sympathize with others' hunger and cold, and pity others' hardships are benevolent generals; Those who are not afraid of danger, do not move for profit, and would rather sacrifice honorably than survive in humiliation; Expensive but not arrogant, winning is not showing off, it is a polite corporal who can be polite and virtuous, and it is a polite general who can endure humiliation; There is no surprise in the changes, there is no clue in the movement, and it is the wise general who can turn disaster into blessing and win in danger; The rewards and punishments are clear, the rewards are timely, and the punishment is not afraid to avoid the powerful. The marching battle runs faster than the war horse, the enemy is a thousand people, good at short-range killing, and the longer than long-distance archery is the foot general; Those who can climb high and adventure, ride a galloping horse and shoot arrows, charge in front and retreat behind the palace are cavalry generals; The brave champion of the three armies, not afraid of the strong, ashamed of small fights, dare to resist the enemy is the fierce general; When you see a sage, you want to learn from him, you rush to do good things that are beneficial to everyone, you can accept the advice of others, and you are magnanimous but strong and resolute, not humble or arrogant.

Zuo Zongtang's way of selecting and employing people is undoubtedly a powerful guarantee for the victory of the Western Expedition, and it is also the fundamental principle he follows for officials and politicians. To a certain extent, its ideas and propositions reflect the general law of selecting talents, which can be used on the battlefield, as well as in the workplace and life, and have been cited and verified many times in the corporate culture of later generations.

These are all very good methods for assessing and observing a person, but for Zhen Qian, these methods are really good. But what he urgently needs now is not to assess their abilities, but to improve the morale of these recruits, ignite their hope, and release their motivation. Let this army be able to enter the state immediately, so that the assessment and training can really begin, and then the test and screening, and those who are capable can be selected from them to be trusted and cultivated.

"Very good, everyone wants to have land and a house, and then the grain warehouse is full, the good wife and concubine, and the children and grandchildren are full. However, none of this will fall from the sky, and we have to fight for all of this ourselves. Now, Heaven has given us such an opportunity, and the court and the emperor have recruited you who do not have enough to eat, who do not have warm clothes, who have no land at home, and who have no wives in the house, to come here. ”

"I know that you have lost your land, you have lost your house, you have resentment in your heart, and you have lost hope in life, but think about your wife, children, and family, you are also their hope for survival, why don't you give yourself a chance to start over......?"

"You should not see this opportunity as a chore, but as an opportunity, a big opportunity to change the status quo, to change your family. Brethren! Opportunities are in front of us, are you going to watch them slip away? ”

Zhen Qian said a lot in one breath, and his heart couldn't help but stir, these words were not just used to boost morale, but actually said to himself, this life is not an opportunity and a challenge.

"Very well, the opportunity is hard to find, and none of us know that it will come to you in the next moment. For us, it's about always being ready so that when the opportunity comes, you won't miss it again, and hold it tightly with your own hand. But how do you prepare? There is only one point, training, training, training, only after training your skills, you will not miss the opportunity, or be killed by the opportunity. Now, prepare for the assessment training, the first opportunity will be in front of you, as long as you have outstanding skills, I will appoint and dismiss you as the captain of the team, or even the leader, everything depends on whether you have the ability. Are you ready? ”

"Ready!"

The excited faces are full of expectations and yearning for a new life.

Zhen Qian's words made the recruits' blood boil, and he turned his head to Coach Song behind him and smiled slightly, "Please ask Coach Song to give you a lecture!" ”

The regimental training camp is nominally under the jurisdiction of Luquan County, not a private soldier, and in terms of training, instructors are also assigned in accordance with the Tang military system, who are responsible for the training of new recruits for regimental training, and there are low-level officers at the state level to serve as them, with one or two principal and deputy instructors for each team, and three principal and deputy instructors for the first team on the left.

The regimental training camp is not a regular army, and the instructor generally has little interest in dealing with these mud-legged people, and the soldiers brought out simply disgrace their faces.

Coach Song looked like he was twenty-six or seventeen years old at most, with a thin figure, a dark face, and several terrifying scars, which made people feel that they didn't dare to look at it directly. I heard that this person had been on the battlefield, and he retreated because he was injured and bleeding too much, and there was a terrifying murderous aura on his body.

Coach Song's eyes were sharp, and when he walked to Zhen Qian's side, he didn't have the slightest smile on his face, and nodded: "I didn't expect you to be so able to boost morale, it's a pity that you are not a general!" ”

"I'm just going to make you laugh, and the left team will be handed over to Coach Song in the future!" After saying that, he retreated.

"What the envoy of the Zhen regiment said just now is very good, the official carefully looked at your queue, I didn't expect that you who were still mud-legged Tian Shehan a few days ago could arrange up the formation neatly, which made the officer very happy, it can be said that even the queue of recruits of the Shence Army is only so ......."

Hearing this, the recruits below were a little excited, it was not easy to get a real officer's face-to-face praise!

"Do you feel very happy to hear this official's words, and even a little proud?" Coach Song smiled, laughing was more ugly than crying, and the scar on his face was even more terrifying.

Zhen Qian always felt that something was wrong when he heard this, and sure enough, ......, Coach Song's tone immediately became stern.

"You are wrong, although you may be stronger than the mud legs in the field, but that's all. Compared to the veterans who really survived the sea of blood in the sword mountain, you are just a bunch of scum, and you are not even as good as scum. As you are now, if you go to the north to fight with the Khitan and Uighurs, Lao Tzu will bet that none of you will want to come back alive. ”

"Fighting is not child's play, don't think that you are just a regimental training camp and will not go to the battlefield, tell you, now there are homeless people and bandits swarming everywhere, Lao Tzu will tell you the truth. Maybe in March, maybe in half a year, you may be pulled into the battlefield. Whether it is a bandit in the mountains and forests, or a frontier battle, even if it is a group of veterans, the probability of dying under the swords, guns and arrows is very huge. If you want to ask if there is a chance to improve survival, then Lao Tzu can tell you, that is, while the guy who eats now is still stored in your neck, train hard, only in this way, you may have a chance of living in the future. ”
