Chapter Twenty-Four: A Great Genius Came to Hanjia Village

The next training was the same as before, mainly assassination training, formation drills and combat training. In the evening, the soldiers were separated from the veterans, and the recruits were taught literacy by Dr. Wu, who was born as a child, and the veterans were taught by Yang Ming because they already knew some words, some classic war cases and various military books.

Yang Ming directly adapted revolutionary songs such as "Three Disciplines and Eight Attentions" and "Dongfang Hong" to teach the soldiers to sing, one is to relax the training pressure of the soldiers, and the other is to imperceptibly, so that the soldiers have a sense of discipline and a sense of leadership, of course, the leader must be himself.

In order to increase the actual combat experience of the soldiers, Yang Ming began to take the initiative to lead the soldiers to exterminate the bandits entrenched near Hanjia Village, and exterminated four or five bandits within a few months.

Due to the influence of the climate of the Xiaoice River, the drought in summer has worsened, but the water conservancy facilities in Hanjia Village are complete, and as soon as there is a shortage of water in a large area of rice fields, Yang Ming will immediately organize the soldiers and civilians of Hanjia Village to carry water up the mountain, so that due to the concerted efforts of the military and civilians, the impact of the climate on Hanjia Village is not great.

In autumn, you can see patches of rice paddies everywhere in Hanjia Village. As soon as the breeze blows, the plump ears of rice ripple into a golden wave.

Not only that, but a few months ago, Yang Ming asked Zhang Yuanwai to bring back sweet potato seeds from Fujian from the county seat more than 20 miles away, and let the villagers plant them in the barren mountainous land. Originally, the villagers were quite skeptical about this, but they just thought that the land was empty and they planted it empty, but they didn't expect sweet potatoes to grow very well in the mountains.

As a result, the hunger of Hanjia Village has been greatly reduced, and basically people will use this sweet potato for dinner, which is easy to eat, and Yang Ming also levied a lot of sweet potatoes to have enough military rations, and brought sweet potatoes every time they marched long distances in the mountains for a few days and nights, which was both convenient and sufficient.

Normally, although the army and the villagers lived in the same village, their lives were separated from each other. Many parents and wives have not seen their sons and husbands for days, and today is the day when the soldiers of the Han family camp are returning home for vacation, and many families in the tulou have already begun to busily slaughter chickens and sheep to entertain their sons or husbands returning home.

Yun Die is no exception, in the past few days that Yang Ming has not been there, she has been worried about whether her young master will be hungry, whether she will be sick, whether her clothes will be torn and no one will make up for it, and whether she will be injured and no one cares. In short, I don't think about tea and dinner, except for going to the cave every day to teach the children to read with Du Xiaoyuan, I stay in my room and sigh.

Plug Xiaoyuan has been listless these days, but today she came to find Yundie very early. Yun Die didn't sleep lazy today, and as soon as she saw Xiao Yuan coming in, she immediately greeted her, and said with a smile: "Miss Du, why are you here so early today?" ”

Du Xiaoyuan looked into the room for a while, and then asked a little timidly, "That, hasn't your young master come back yet?" ”

"No, it's embarrassing that Miss Du, you came so early to care about whether my young master has come back or not", Yun Die smiled and said. "Don't you also get up early", as soon as Du Xiaoyuan said this, the two tacitly looked at each other and smiled, and at this moment, they heard Erya's voice outside the house: "Childe! ”

"This matter is left to Brother Zhongqing!" Yang Ming had no intention of saving a Xiucai named Guan Jiaren when he suppressed the bandits this time, this Guan Jiaren also boasted that he was a famous talent in Xishu, and this Guan Jiaren also recommended himself to teach in the village, which made Yang Ming, who was distressed by the lack of cultural people in Hanjia Village, very happy, so he also respected Guan Jiaren.

"Brother Zitong, you're polite, I'm grateful to Guan for being saved by you, where will I feel aggrieved for teaching people in the village to read, but please rest assured, at least three years or more than five years, I Guan will definitely make the village a show!" Guan Jiaren wore a Lingyun scarf on his head, wore a Huluo shirt with a pine-colored ribbon, and pedaled on his head, but he was more like a personable son than Yang Ming.

When Du Xiaoyuan and Yun Die heard Erya's voice, they immediately ran out, but it was Guan Jiaren who bumped into them head-on, Guan Jiaren's heart fluttered slightly, and he said secretly: "I didn't expect that I could meet such stunning two women when I arrived in this place", but on the surface, they pretended not to be surprised: "Xiaosheng is so polite, I don't know why the two girls stopped Xiaosheng?" ”

Du Xiaoyuan and Yun Die both came out of the eunuch's house, and when they saw that it was a white-faced scholar, they also bowed before they came to Yang Ming's side.

Yang Ming was hugging Erya to make her laugh at this time, and only put Erya down when he saw Yundie and Plug Xiaoyuan coming. As soon as Yun Die came up, she touched Yang Ming's body here and there, and cried that her young master was thin and dark, and blamed Yang Ming for not studying well and wanted to hang out with some big bosses.

And Du Xiaoyuan sometimes glanced at Yang Ming, sometimes lowered her eyebrows, and sometimes smiled at Yang Ming. Yang Ming also stared at her unscrupulously, if there weren't so many people here, he would have run up and hugged Xiao Yuan in his arms to relieve the pain of lovesickness.

"Give", Yang Ming quietly handed a wooden hairpin to Du Xiaoyuan, and said softly: "I cut it myself." Gu Xiaoyuan hurriedly snatched it, squeezed it tightly in her hand, and then ran away with a red face.

If Yang Ming wants to save history, he can't just rely on Hanjia Village, so if he wants to develop, he needs to have an army, and in addition to having an army, he must also have his own staff, that is, literati who handle various administrative affairs. Therefore, Yang Ming welcomed Guan Jiaren very much, not only gave him the best residence in the tulou, but also asked him to provide him with the same treatment as himself.

Guan Jiaren was very grateful for Yang Ming's courtesy, and did not refrain after showing a little humility. Especially when he knew that Gu Xiaoyuan was also teaching children to read, and he would teach the children in the village with Gu Xiaoyuan, he couldn't help but be secretly happy, not only did not criticize Yang Ming for using a woman as a gentleman like Dr. Wu did at the beginning, but also praised Yang Ming's move, and praised Du Xiaoyuan with Xie Daoyun in the world.

Guan Jiaren also brought a few slaves this time, and Yang Ming did not let their master and servant separate, but at Guan Jiaren's request, let his servants still serve him, and did not send soldiers in the army to protect him.

"After you go out, immediately send someone to the county lord and Yu Qianhu, just say that I have already lived in Hanjia Village, let them quickly send someone to set up a point outside the village to respond, I will send out the situation here at any time, and tell the county lord to rest assured, I will definitely trick Yang Ming to the county seat", Guan Jiaren muttered in the ear of a slave as soon as he came back.

That night, one of Guan Jiaren's servants quietly groped out of the tulou, and left the village on the pretext that his young master's things were lost on the road, and went to Dongxiang County overnight.
