Chapter 498: Military Training Lu Dongbin
Regarding the military school, after the visit, Li Chen had more ideas. In addition to www.biquge.info non-commissioned officer school, he considered two more things. The first thing is whether to let all new science and technology scholars conduct military training, just like the college students in later generations, well, Chinese college students, including Taiwan college students, military training.
Taiwan's fresh college students will also undergo military training and go to Chenggong Ridge, which is divided into two batches during winter and summer vacations, and they must go to Chenggong Ridge once. If you don't get in, you don't have to go.
So far, Taiwan has not abolished military service. When all boys are born, they have to go to the army. Initially, it was three years, and then it was gradually shortened, two years, more than a year, and there were military training courses during the study period, which could be deducted. Later, there was also a substitute service, that is, not entering the camp, but going to various places where manpower was needed to serve in public offices and serve as military service.
In addition, there is a kind of national defense substitute service, which is usually a special talent with a skill, such as a master's degree or a doctor's degree in electronics, who can go to some large enterprises and go to work normally, but receive a relatively small salary. The advantage of this is that enterprises can obtain relatively abundant low-cost and high-quality manpower.
There are also advantages to military service, you don't have to go to general military service, delay time, after all, military service is about to take a year, out of the profession for a year, for this rapidly changing society, they will be out of touch, this kind of military service, not only can give full play to their expertise, after the service, they can also be directly hired by the enterprise, which is considered to kill two birds with one stone.
All of the above were introduced by Taiwan in response to a large number of young people who have served in the military. On the one hand, it is because Taiwan is constantly refining its national defense forces, and it does not need so many people.
In the past, it was known as a 500,000-strong army, especially in the first few years when they first came to Taiwan, the situation was tense, and they needed manpower even more, I remember that those years were quite miserable when they were in the army, and they were discharged from the army for three years, but they were postponed for a few years, but after a few decades, the group of people who had served in the military at the beginning were old, and the more they thought about it, the more unwilling they became, and they jumped out to demand that the state must compensate, because it was so serious that they had to serve overtime, which was already considered illegal. Later, these programs were introduced because of the strength of the army and the gradual increase in population, which did not require so many people to serve.
The situation in the Tang Dynasty was that it gradually emphasized literature over military force. Li Chen began to think about whether it was necessary to let all the bachelors of the Hanlin Academy, those who were admitted to the Jinshi and the Yin Guan, all go to the army for training for a while.
On the one hand, it is necessary to reverse the status quo of the Tang Dynasty's emphasis on literature and light on military force. On the other hand, it is to cultivate team spirit. In Taiwan, there is a saying that if you have not been a soldier, you are not a man. It sounds like nonsense, since it's compulsory service, of course everyone has to go to the army.
But to be precise, if you have been a soldier, you will be more mature. The environment in the barracks is quite changeable. Hard training, team life, almost everyone after retiring, will miss the years of being a soldier. I miss the days when I was tortured by the squad leader, and I miss seeing my colleagues honestly. Usually, in military service, many people make friends, which is also one of several irons, and they have carried guns together.
Li Chen likes that if he has been a soldier, he will be more disciplined and will know more about group honor. Also, look down on Takeo? Even you have been a soldier that you look down on, look at how you still value literature and light martial arts, and train those guys who are not diligent in their four bodies, which can be regarded as a combination of civil and military.
Another thing is that he will consider whether to promote Confucianism in military schools. He had thought about it for a long time. Confucianism seems to have nothing to do with military affairs, and even Confucianism is not like a negative thought.
However, the loyalty to the monarch in Confucianism, as well as benevolence and righteousness, are very much needed by an army. Loyalty, this needs no explanation. Benevolence and righteousness, the teacher of benevolence and righteousness, the teacher of kings, isn't it benevolence and righteousness?
Besides, Confucianism is not necessarily negative and cowardly. Li Chen decided that this is not that it cannot be guided, like Xinxue, in China it will become that kind of empty talk, and the Japanese will integrate into their traditional bushido.
In other words, Li Chen can remove its dross and take its essence. Extract the Confucian concept of loyalty to the monarch and love for the people, the concept of great unification, and the concept of revenge of the ninth generation, all of which must be added. As for what kind of virtue convinces people, it must be completely changed.
It would be nice to compile a bushido book for military cadets. Li Chen thought about it. I didn't think of what to call it all of a sudden, there is chivalry in the West, bushido in Japan, what should China be called?
It's also called bushido, in order to distinguish the traditional Confucianism, or not to misunderstand. However, the root is still Confucianism. Don't dislike Confucianism, Confucianism has been integrated into the bones of the Chinese, and it is very suitable for soldiers.
In the roots, Confucius was by no means weak, and among the six arts, there were two related to war, archery and royalty. There is also a big husband, the rich and the rich cannot be lewd, the poor and the lowly cannot be moved, and the mighty cannot be bent. Scholars can be killed, not humiliated. People with lofty ideals are benevolent, there is no survival to harm benevolence, there is killing to become benevolent.
and Mencius had to sacrifice his life for righteousness, although tens of millions of people had no choice. This is an important integrity of the Chinese, how can it not be promoted.
Well, it was decided, he wanted to promote this kind of thinking in the military academy again. He wanted to extract the many historical figures he had read and set an example.
Thinking of this, he picked up his pen and wrote the preface to the song of righteousness, 'Heaven and earth have righteousness, and miscellaneous manifolds: the lower is the river mountain...the upper is the sun and the star, and it is said to be Haoran. ’
Putting down the pen, he was stunned to think that in the future, this is to set up a stone plaque at the gate of the military academy, and to change the bookstore into an exhibition hall, and also to stand this righteous song at the door, the wind eaves to display books and read, and the ancient road to shine in color. It is also necessary to advocate many virtuous figures in history, so that future generations can have an object to look at.
He chooses characters carefully, and chooses some characters who have benchmarks. Won't it be like Japanese bushido, where seppuku is prone to seppuku and neuropathy. If you want to die, please die for the country, and don't give up your life so easily.
I don't know how long it took for him to wake up suddenly, a bachelor standing in the distance, because he no longer needs palace maids and eunuchs, so many places use bachelors as secretaries, which is a very honorable position, usually only a bachelor of Hanlin Academy with excellent internship results can get this opportunity.
They are usually responsible for helping to communicate, sorting out documents, sometimes providing Li Chen's consultation, and running errands, they can get close to the emperor, naturally there are many opportunities, but they must also keep their mouths tight, when they clean up the study, there will also be people staring, they can't take the opportunity to leave something, some of Li Chen's discarded manuscripts will also be burned. It wasn't for them to burn, but for some illiterate women to carry it and burn it.
'Sage, Lu Daochang has arrived. The bachelor saw that Li Chen was in a daze, so he asked someone to wait first, and the tea was served, and now he saw Li Chen come back to his senses, so he hurriedly reported, as soon as Li Chen raised his hand, the bachelor turned around and went to summon.
'Immeasurable Buddha, poor Dao has seen a saint. ''Chief Lu, please be seated.'' ', the person who came, surnamed Lu, had three beards under his lips, looked like a fairy wind and bones, and was a Taoist real person. His name is known to many people, and he is famous for Lu Dongbin.
Lu Dongbin, if you haven't seen it, you should have heard it. One of the Eight Immortals, Quanzhen taught the Five Ancestors, and it is said that he is still Wang Chongyang's teacher. Legend has it that couples can't go to worship Lu Dongbin, otherwise they will break up.
In history, there are many records of him, including the Northern Song Dynasty and the late Tang Dynasty. It is not clear when he was born and when he attained enlightenment, but it is said that he is Han Zhongli among the Eight Immortals, and Zhongli has the right to enlighten him.
Li Chen didn't know what those legends were true, anyway, he, the legendary Lu Dongbin, was in his years, in his fifties, well-maintained, his hair and beard were all black, his body was not stout, and he walked steadily, quite generous.
'Lu Zhenren, I don't know how the construction of Dao Tan is going. ''Saint, at the moment.'' Hearing Li Chen ask this, Lu Dongbin opened his mouth with a lot of data, saying how many Taoist priests have been certified at present, and how many students have been accepted by Taoist schools.
A few years ago, after Li Chen reformed various Taoist rituals, classics, and missionary methods, Taoism burst out with amazing vitality, unified into Taoism, and began to preach in various ways in various states, with good results, not losing to Buddhism, and because of cohesion, it spread more rapidly.
There is a unified Dao court deployment, and there is no shortage of manpower and material resources, and it can be used to capture a state with a very fast speed. It doesn't seem appropriate to use the capture, but that's pretty much it. In a certain state, many Taoist priests fell into it at once, preaching in many places at the same time.
He also studied proverbial teachings and constantly sent Taoist priests to preach Taoist thoughts. Otherwise, it is a free clinic. The speed of transmission is extremely fast, and what the results are, are now presented one by one in Lu Dongbin's report.
He said how well the provincial officials in various places were in order, and how many Taoist people there were. A number of Taoist priests and Taoist children, and a small number of mages in the general Dao area, above which they have to be in charge of the Daozhou Dewei Master, how many people, etc.
In the Taoist court, a real person is himself, as well as a number of refiners, a number of lawyers, these are the original Taoists, who are more proficient in the classics, and the Taoists are more posthumous, and many people have participated in the compilation of Taoist classics before.
So, at present, all the states and counties in Datang have basically set up Taoist temples? ''Yes, saint. Basically, the original Taoist temples in each state and county have been integrated, and each state and county has set up a Taoist temple. Since Taoism is unified, Li Chen asked them to take over the prefectures and counties, and the original Taoist temples.
In that wave of Buddha destruction actions, in fact, Taoist temples in various states and counties were also implicated. Later, although it was returned to them, it was used by Li Chen for unified use. If you are not convinced, don't preach, find a mountain nest cat by yourself, don't play by yourself.
If you want to preach, without the certification of the Taoist court, you are all evil gods of the temple and are forbidden. Temple property will also be confiscated. Therefore, the Taoist temples in various states and counties are basically reformed from the original Taoist temples.
'Very well, I have something to tell you. Li Chen nodded, since there are Taoist temples in all states and counties, then this matter can be handed over to the Taoists.
'General, you must do justice to us.' ''Yes, yes, that man was so cruel that we wouldn't survive, and yesterday two more brothers were killed.'' In the barracks, some low-level instructors surrounded an old man to talk.
The old man's dark skin and long military career made his face wrinkled like a knife, and his two gray but godly eyebrows, as well as his generous and benevolent gaze, made him look quite majestic, but also approachable.
At this moment, a bunch of people surrounded him and complained, 'General, even if you are killed, you don't see, the fight was terrible a few days ago, how many people were beaten and half killed, and those brothers are still dragging their breath, and I don't know if they can be saved. , killed, but just a coffin, dragged half-dead like that, it costs a lot of money to treat, and they don't know if they can be saved, for them, it is better to die. Even, if he becomes a cripple and is rescued, how will he live in the future?
The old general frowned when he heard this, and his body was bent a lot, how could he not know these circumstances, but, 'Everyone, this general will definitely make suggestions to the young marshal, and will try to dissuade the young marshal, and the general will believe that the young marshal is just confused for a while, and he has drunk too much. ’
'If he drinks too much, what should he say about dissecting a pregnant woman alive.' A soldier shouted, and he was angry when he heard it, "That's a rumor, although the young marshal has a bad character after drinking and loves to eat embryos, but they are all cattle and sheep, and there is no stupid thing." ''Who knows, we don't want to have someone so brutal as a ruler.'' ’
'Yes, yes. Everyone echoed in unison, there is a way for a reason, there is no wind and no waves, it is a rumor, maybe it is true, this is absolutely unbearable. Hearing that everyone was so angry, the old general could only appease them, and tomorrow he would definitely go to admonish the young marshal and persuade the angry people to go back.
'Ling Zun is indeed very prestigious. In a tent in the distance, Ma Yuanwu looked at the distant scenery with a smile, a group of soldiers arguing around a general, he turned his head to a young man and said.
The young man, with his facial features very similar to that of a veteran, and the title of him, which was obviously a father-son relationship, said with a smug face, 'This is natural, my father is very much loved by the soldiers.' ’
'Old general, I really did my best for Youzhou, but it's a pity, if you really think about the sergeant, you shouldn't..., huh, our family doesn't understand, why did such a cruel person support him as a handsome man in the first place? ’
'Why should the old general take over?' Hearing Ma Yuanwu's words, the young man clenched his fists and retracted weakly, "I have also persuaded my father, but my father is loyal to the old handsome, so he is not willing to do that... Do that which is the way of heaven. ’
'The old general is really loyal, but it's a pity... But it's a fool to be loyal,' Ma Yuanwu sighed while praising him, 'Hmph.' The young man looked into the distance with a disgruntled face, that person was not worthy of being the lord of Youzhou at all, so cruel and unkind, but...
'We have a plan... If so, so, so... The young man hesitated, 'My father's... ''Young General, if it is really good for the people of Youzhou, he should stand up and eliminate this great harm for the people of Youzhou. Ma Yuanwu Zhengse said.
If Ling Zun is unwilling, for the sake of the big festival, he can only sacrifice the small family. Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety have been difficult to achieve both', a sentence is said to be righteous and awe-inspiring, as if he is really a loyal minister and righteous man.
Besides, we have a plan... He whispered suddenly, 'This and this, and so and so and so and The young man's face was gloomy and uncertain, and at last, he clenched his fist in his hand. Ma Yuanwu laughed in his heart, and his face remained silent... It seems that the plan has gone further. (To be continued.) )
