Chapter 4 Painstaking management of the initial army

Section 3: Selection and Promotion

The first year of the Apocalypse, February.

After the notice on recruiting talents in Tongzhou Town was drafted by Yuan Mingxuan and revised and confirmed by Liu Yunwei, it was spread out by the Chinese army's night and posted in the capital, Tongzhou, and various cities in Beizhili, which immediately caused a sensation in the Beizhili area, and even Huang Jiashan, the secretary of the military department, came to the book to inquire about the situation. You must know that now the name of Tongzhou Town and Hanwei Army is very loud, not to mention the previous proud achievements against Jiannu and thieves, just talking about last year's great purge of corruption that shocked the government and the opposition is enough to make officials and people everywhere look at Tongzhou Town and Hanwei Army with admiration. It is precisely because of the popularity of Tongzhou Town and the Hanwei Army that the recruitment of subordinates in Tongzhou Town this time has unsurprisingly attracted widespread attention.

In the one month stipulated by Liu Yunwei, Yuan Mingxuan can be said to be very busy. During this period, there were students and scholars from all over Beizhili, even Henan and Shandong, who came to Tongzhou Town and defected to the Hanwei Army. This kind of situation was not expected by Yuan Mingxuan in advance, and it was also unexpected by Liu Yunwei, in just one month, the Hanwei army camp had gathered more than a thousand scholars.

Faced with such a situation, Liu Yunwei and Yuan Mingxuan can be said to be ecstatic, as soon as the registration time ended, Liu Yunwei ordered that after the recruitment time ended, all the students who rushed to Tongzhou to conduct an examination, in order to select and screen talents, the specific examination questions were personally written by Liu Yunwei, and the examination time was set on February 2.

On the second day of February, "the dragon raises its head".

On this day, the school field in Tongzhou City has been overcrowded, more than 1,300 scholars who came to take the exam all gathered, and stood in line according to the style of the phalanx, although the temperature in early spring is still cold, but there is a flame in everyone's heart, a raging flame that is eager to make contributions.

At this time, Liu Yunwei stood on the stage of the martial arts show in armor, looking at the black crowd under the stage, as if he had thousands of words to say in his heart. And the readers in the audience also saw the rumored "General Hanwei" for the first time, and many people were very excited.

Liu Yunwei calmed down and said loudly: "Everyone, I am Liu Yunwei, the chief military officer of Tongzhou Town, and it is my honor to be able to meet so many scholars today!" You are all scholars who are rich and rich, and you are all the pillars of the dynasty. To be able to gather here today, I think everyone is holding a heart to serve the country, they all want to come to Tongzhou Town, come to Hanwei Army to help me, and they all want to achieve a meritorious career, I Liu Yunwei thank you in advance! After speaking, Liu Yunwei saluted the more than 1,000 scholars in the audience.

The audience was suddenly in an uproar, although the dynasty was noble and cheap, but the scholars in the school were all ordinary people, and Liu Yunwei was a dignified general soldier and a second-class military attaché! Those scholars never thought that the general soldiers of a town would be so Lixian Corporal, they were all moved, and everyone's hearts were even more determined to pass the assessment, join Tongzhou Town, Hanwei Army, and do a career.

Liu Yunwei naturally saw the expressions of the crowd, paused slightly, and continued: "Today's exam is not to consider your knowledge, but to consider your views on border control, military affairs, and Hu control. Therefore, today's exam does not distinguish between high and low knowledge, but only looks at the depth of insights, so please answer them carefully. After speaking, Liu Yunwei signaled to Yuan Mingxuan on the side to start the exam.

Yuan Mingxuan nodded, and then gave a few words to a hundred presidents, only to see that the hundred presidents took a few steps forward and said loudly: "Tongzhou Town Shogunate Recruitment Assessment, start now!" ”

As soon as the words fell, hundreds of ironclad soldiers ran into the school yard under the eager eyes of all the readers, each holding a pair of small tables and chairs for only one person, and placed the small tables and chairs in front of the readers who had already stood in a row; Immediately afterwards, hundreds of soldiers ran in, only to see these hundreds of soldiers handing out the exam papers and the four treasures of the study in their arms to everyone in turn.

Yuan Mingxuan saw that everything was ready, so he ordered the exam to begin, and the Bai general manager said loudly: "Now the exam begins!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the more than 1,000 readers sat down one after another, and hurriedly opened the test paper in front of them, only to see that there was only one test question on the test paper, and there were four big characters on it: Jingbian Policy!

This topic is very rare for readers who are good at the Four Books and Five Classics and the Eight Strands of Literature. You must know that today's scholars are all dedicated to learning, and few people are as extensive as the literati of the Han and Tang dynasties; Today's scholars can only be called brilliant, but as for being proficient in the art of war, history, astronomy and geography, and strange things, it is difficult for some strongmen.

Therefore, Liu Yunwei's question suddenly stumped most of the readers who came to take the exam.

Liu Yunwei stood on the stage of performing martial arts, looked at the more than 1,000 scholars in front of him, and said to Yuan Mingxuan beside him: "Lord Yuan, you see that these scholars are still working hard in this cold wind, just to be able to serve in our Tongzhou Town, which is really respectable." It seems that the dynasty has been raising soldiers for 300 years, and there are still many loyal and righteous people. ”

Yuan Mingxuan also nodded and said, "Yes, the ancients said: there must be loyalty and courage in the hometown of three households." Since the founding of the country, how can there be no one available? ”

Liu Yunwei agreed very much, and looked at it for a while, and almost an hour had passed. Liu Yunwei suddenly found that only a small number of readers in the school were struggling to write, while the vast majority of them were still worried and still thinking hard. Seeing this, Liu Yunwei couldn't help but shake his head and said to Yuan Mingxuan: "It seems that I am still a little blindly optimistic, although these scholars all want to come to our Tongzhou Town to serve, but for border affairs and military affairs, most of them are blindsided, and it is absolutely impossible for such people to be admitted." ”

Yuan Mingxuan obviously noticed this, and said: "What the little general said is right, but there is no way to do it, we can only come little by little, recruit some people for emergency first, and then slowly think of a way." ”

Liu Yunwei nodded, and began to think about the next thing in his heart, and after thinking for a while, Liu Yunwei said: "Lord Yuan, since the exam has begun, then there is Lord Lao Yuan here to work hard and preside over it; I will go to see Lu Ying's side in the camp, and it is estimated that the soldiers have already begun to compete. ”

Yuan Mingxuan said with a smile: "It's okay, just go, little general, just leave it to me here." ”

After Liu Yunwei said goodbye to Yuan Mingxuan, he returned to the camp of the Hanwei Army with his escort. As soon as he entered the camp, Liu Yunwei saw many soldiers coming and going happily, and they were discussing the selection of martial arts in the army. After rushing to the school field, the scene of the competition was even more enthusiastic, and Liu Yunwei also felt extremely excited when he saw this.

I saw that hundreds of soldiers had gathered in the school field, these soldiers were all selected by Lu Ying from the thousands of leaders in each battalion, whether it was martial arts or the art of war, whether it was loyalty or the support of the soldiers, these people were ranked in the forefront of the whole army, and these people were the elite of the Hanwei army.

At this time, Liu Yunwei saw that the selection had been carried out in an orderly manner, so he simply did not plan to come forward to disturb the competition, but found a relatively secluded place with a good line of sight, and watched quietly outside the field.

At this time, the hundreds of selected soldiers had already been divided into groups, and I saw Lu Ying walk onto the stage and say loudly to the soldiers in the audience: "Now the selection begins!" ”

The entire school field immediately boiled, and the soldiers participating in the selection of each group began their own assessments under the command of the Shangguan. These soldiers have assessed riding skills and martial arts, physical strength and art of war, and battle formations and knowledge, and each group is in full swing. The thousands of soldiers watching from the sidelines were even more enthusiastic, waving their flags and shouting to cheer for their colleagues who supported. The whole school seemed to have turned into a noisy battlefield, full of enthusiastic soldiers, and a steady stream of soldiers from all sides of the camp rushed over to join the event.

After watching it for a while, Liu Yunwei was very satisfied with this selection, and couldn't help but smile and said to himself: "It seems that this selection is really done right, after this selection, not only can the available talents among the generals be selected, prevent some talents from being buried, but also greatly improve the morale of the soldiers." ”

After that, Liu Yunwei saw that the selection here was also being carried out in an orderly manner, and there was also Lu Ying, Wu Xing and others to assist, and there was nothing to deal with by himself, so he returned to the Chinese army's big tent.

Not long after Liu Yunwei returned to the big tent, he received a report from the guards: Wei Zhongxian sent someone!

Liu Yunwei was secretly shocked in his heart, and hurriedly ordered someone to bring him in. I saw that the person who came was a little eunuch about twenty years old, who looked very thin, but in the face of Liu Yunwei, he was calm and did not have any panic, which made Liu Yunwei secretly surprised, so he asked: "What is the name of this little father-in-law?" I don't know what the little father-in-law has to say? ”

"Hehe, Mr. Liu is tormenting the miscellaneous family, the miscellaneous family is just a slave under Gonggong Wei, who can't get on the façade, and the miscellaneous family who sees what to teach doesn't dare to be. Today, the miscellaneous family came to pass on a word for Gonggong Wei. ”

Liu Yunwei couldn't help but be taken aback when he heard that this little eunuch was just an ordinary slave under Wei Zhongxian: "This Wei Zhongxian is so good, it's not been long yet, and the people under him have become all kinds of things, and Wei Zhongxian will definitely be in full swing in the future!" ”

Although his heart was racing sharply, Liu Yunwei still kept smiling on the surface and asked, "What did Grandpa Wei say?" ”

"Gonggong Wei said: The things that Mr. Liu explained have been done, and now Mr. Liu should do his own thing."
