"Zhao Qian, Sun Li Zhou." A crisp voice spoke.

"Zhao Qian, Sun Li Zhou." A group of voices mixed with a little immaturity and maturity followed along.

"Wu Zheng, Wang Feng Chen."

"Wu Zheng, Wang Feng Chen."

"Captain Jiang Shen Han." ……

Early in the morning, the cottage started a new day with the sound of this untidy recitation. Zhang Mengcheng held a whip made of wicker, trying to put on the majesty of a teacher. While reciting the surnames of the hundred families, he supervised the owner of every recitation in the grass hut. Since Guan Zhiqing proposed to Zhang Mengjin the idea of letting his nephew Guan Yuze follow Zhang Mengcheng to learn to read and write.

Zhang Mengjin, who is the eldest brother and the head of a village, did not consult Zhang Mengcheng's opinion, and directly gathered all the children over the age of six and under the age of fifteen in the village. At the same time, he quickly sorted out a grass hut, and brought all the children into it with Zhang Mengcheng, so he no longer cared about everything in the grass hut.

Zhang Mengcheng, who became a teacher for the first time in his life, was a little helpless in the face of the more than 20 school-age students found in the cottage of less than 300 people. With no experience, he could only use paper to divide the surnames into several batches. Dozens of words were copied out, and then they were read in unison over and over again with a group of illiterates.

The children in the cottage are both male and female, most of them are relatives of the cottage, and the remaining few are orphans taken in by the cottage. When Zhang Mengcheng first began teaching, there were a few brothers in the cottage who came to watch the excitement and joked at the same time. In such an environment, some children are also disturbed by their unintentional learning and noisy together.

Zhang Mengcheng, who was originally very angry about being forced to work directly by his eldest brother without asking his opinion. directly launched a temper and yelled out a few adults who were coaxing. By the time Zhang Mengcheng returned to the cottage, he already had an extra wicker in his hand. After that, he whipped a few troublesome children, finally venting the unhappiness in his heart, and at the same time initially erecting the majesty that a teacher should have in feudal society.

After the children recited with Mr. for about half an hour, Zhang Mengcheng announced the end of the morning reading. At the same time, he also signaled that the children could take a break for a while, and the originally quiet grass hall suddenly became noisy and noisy. No matter how cheering the more than 20 children were behind Zhang Mengcheng, Zhang Mengcheng, as a teacher, went out to catch his breath, and then slowly walked up to the wall, staring at the pile of foot soldiers in the school field outside the cottage.

Although it does not matter the modern Ming Dynasty, no matter which society. Zhang Mengcheng can be regarded as a person who has received higher education. However, Zhang Mengcheng, who had no teaching experience at all and had not made the slightest preparation for work, still felt that his eldest brother Zhang Mengjin's arrangement was too hasty.

In the past few days, Zhang Mengcheng didn't even care about the martial arts practice habits he had always cultivated, and he was thinking about how to arrange courses for the children. However, due to the limited conditions, even paper and pen are not enough, not to mention the copycats of other teaching tools, it is naturally impossible to realize the various teaching plans in Zhang Mengcheng's heart.

In order to match the work and rest time in the cottage, Zhang Mengcheng finally determined the class time of the cottage after a period of exploration. The school hours are set at the hour (7 a.m. to 9 a.m.), the morning hour (9 a.m. to 11 a.m.), the midday hour (1 p.m. to 15 p.m.) and the Shen hour (15 p.m. to 5 p.m.).

The middle afternoon is left for the children to rest with themselves. But for four hours, holding a few pieces of paper to a group of children, he kept reciting the surnames of the hundred families. And from time to time he stared at them lying on the ground, clutching the wood and writing the pile of words against the mud. These Zhang Mengcheng, who didn't care what the children of the grass hall thought in advance, and who didn't have the consciousness of a human soul engineer at all, were already a little tired.

There was a fiery shout of drill in the school field, which brought Zhang Mengcheng, who was in the fugue, back to his senses. The iron materials that were snatched back by Guan Zhiqing a while ago were quickly rushed by the blacksmith personally invited back by Ma Xiangbo and the original two blacksmiths in the cottage. Finally made some guns for the cottage.

After inserting the guns that had been prepared long ago, he handed over some of the old spears in the village to the foot soldiers of the cottage, and finally organized a spear team of more than 100 people. At the same time, He Zongwei and Li Yang took all the heads and some of the silver they had saved for a while to Ningsai. Twenty pairs of armor were brought back through the doorway, and five good war horses from outside the mouth.

After some inspection and tinkering, it is expected that the armor will be repaired and perfected for the next sortie. In addition, more than a dozen border soldiers were persuaded to join the cottage, and Zhang Mengjin was organized into the bow team and gun team according to their respective specialties. Under the training of a group of fugitives, the group of foot soldiers in the cottage became more and more presentable.

Zhang Mengcheng looked at the foot soldiers in the school yard holding spears, and after the command team on the side gave an order, the spearmen quickly rushed to a wooden handle that was five feet high and eight inches wide twenty paces away. The spear in his hand poked into the wooden handle, divided into five holes of eyes, throat, heart, waist, and feet, and a one-inch wooden ball was installed in each of the wooden holes. All five holes are poked before it is terminated. It seems to be a simple exercise, but few people can successfully complete it, and they retreat to the scolding of the team on the side, and step forward with another step.

Looking at the drills of the foot soldiers in the school field, it reminded Zhang Mengcheng, who had no teaching experience. It is completely possible to add the cohort exercises from previous lives to your own teaching, and no matter what the results are, it will be possible to cultivate some children's discipline. During the time spent practicing walking in unison, I was able to think more about what I would teach in the future.

After making up his mind, Zhang Mengcheng returned to the door of the cottage and knocked a small hammer on an iron bar tied to the door of the cottage. The children, who had been playing around the hut in a hurry, immediately rushed back to the hut when they heard the "bell" of class.

"Everyone has been learning the surname for a few days and has recognized a lot of words. I don't blame everyone for not recognizing it all. Today I will teach you to recognize four simple words. Wait for everyone to recognize these four words, and continue to learn the surnames of hundreds of families. Come and follow me forward, backward, left, right. Zhang Mengcheng grabbed the pen and wrote four big characters neatly on the paper. Show it to your students, point to a word and read it again, and the students will read it too.

Zhang Mengcheng taught several times, and felt that the preparation was enough. He beckoned a group of students outside the hut and lined up in three rows of about seven or eight people per row according to their height. But the poor performance of the students after that hit Zhang Mengcheng's newly established confidence in teaching. Over the next hour, Xiucai was completely caught up in how to get his students to distinguish between the left and right feet.

When the time came, he was still repeatedly teaching his students which one was the left and right foot showman. found that Zhao Wankui and his second brother Zhang Mengguang led a bunch of people back to the cottage. In addition to the more than 20 cavalrymen who went out together, the rest were some of the subordinates of Shilou Taishan Iron Helmet who had escaped, a group of more than 30 people.

These thirty or so people are all relatives, so they huddle together. Looking at the new recruits, Xiucai was a little depressed. It's not because there are fewer people in it, although more than half of them are old and young, women and children. But he added ten horses, two mules, and eleven strong men with swords and spears who had seen blood. Xiucai's frustration is mainly due to the fact that he found that his humble school seemed to be adding three students, two men and one woman.

"Li Dan, Yu Ze, Yalian, the three of you continue to watch the members of your team continue to practice, and I will go back as soon as I go." As the three oldest male and female students, Zhang Mengcheng appointed them as the captains of two men's and one women's teams. But judging by the results shown so far, the age of the three of them does not seem to have brought much to their IQ.

"Uncle Fifteen, uh, sir." Zhang Mengcheng's niece Zhang Yalian just called uncle, and was glared at by Zhang Mengcheng. Zhang Yalian immediately changed her words and said, "Sir, I want to go and see my brother." ”

"You distinguish between left and right first." My niece, who was just thirteen years old, didn't seem to have developed the skills of reading her face and speaking, and after being trained by her uncle, she could only lead the team to do it obediently.

Zhang Yalian is the niece of the Zhang brothers and the sister of Zhang Zhaoen. The naming habits of women in the Zhang family do not follow men, and there are no female-specific character poems, so Zhang Yalian's name is the same as the eldest brother Zhang Mengjin's two daughters who are not old enough to study.

Li Dan was indifferent to what was happening on the side, and explained to his team members one by one. Li Dan, who is just fifteen years old this year, was brought over by his eldest brother Zhang Mengjin. When the Zhang brothers fell into the grass, he was one of the first eighteen people.

Li Dan is a native of Duhebao, formerly known as Li Danzi. The family was originally a military household, but since everyone in the family starved to death, he was alone, and he came to the security guard to ask for food, and was bullied and scolded in the county town of Baoan, and fainted. The eldest brother Zhang Mengjin couldn't get used to the virtue of the security guards bullying outsiders, so he cleaned up the bullying guys, and at the same time helped Li Dan find a doctor and paid the consultation fee, and left silver money for him to eat a full meal.

After Li Dan woke up, he inquired about his benefactor, but he did not directly find Zhang Mengjin to express his gratitude, but stayed in Baoan County to ask for food. Later, I happened to learn that Yushi Li was going to clean up the Zhang family as expected, and hurriedly went out of the city to report the news. Although the Zhang brothers had already received the news one step earlier, Zhang Mengjin still valued the quality of Li Dan's kindness, invited him to join the gang and renamed him Li Dan. Among Zhang Mengcheng's students, Li Dan, who has a serious personality, is definitely the hardest, although he is not the fastest learner.

Finding that someone was still making a mistake, Li Dan thought of a simple way to let everyone hold a piece of hay in their left hand, so that everyone could remember that the side with grass was on the left. This method works very well, after a period of training. Soon everyone could distinguish the left and right, Zhang Yalian looked at the method well, and also learned Li Dan's method to let her team members grab a piece of hay with their left hand, and soon the practice was carried out in a good way.

Guan Yuze, who has not made much progress, saw that Li Dan's team training was good, and began to pick up hay and practice the formation. Although Guan Yuze didn't understand why Mr. today asked them to practice walking in unison repeatedly, he didn't delve into it, but carefully supervised his team members to practice.

After memorizing the four words taught by Xiucai today, Guan Yuze grabbed the hay in his hand, led his team members, and practiced over and over again. Guan Yuze had nightmares for several days a while ago, and now he has finally calmed down his mind a little.

On the second day of coming to the cottage, when Mr. grabbed his hand in front of the second uncle to teach him to write, he remembered the scene of the second uncle grabbing his hand on the road for no reason, and screamed in fright. made the gentleman at that time embarrassed, and the second uncle was so angry that he wanted to smoke himself.

For the Xiucai that the second uncle had been talking about before, Guan Yuze also maintained a sense of awe, and he didn't want to do anything rude. Fortunately, Xiucai didn't care about this humiliating matter. After inquiring about the cause of the incident, Xiucai patiently taught Guan Yuze how to write his name.

Now Guan Yuze can write not only his own name, but also the names of his second uncle and his parents, younger siblings and other family members. Thinking of the second uncle's joy when he looked at the dozen words he wrote on the ground with a wooden stick, he couldn't help but imagine what it would be like for other family members who were still at home to see him writing. Maybe the mother will happily give herself a few copper plates, and let herself go to the couple in the west of the city to buy two baked cakes to eat.

Guan Yuze, who unconsciously began to wander, gradually lost his practice, and the training progress of the team he managed gradually fell behind. After Zhang Mengcheng returned, the training results of the three teams were examined. Guan Yuze's team tragically received two handstrokes per person before school, and Guan Yuze, as the captain, was punished twice.
