Wuchang Jiedu made Liu Renzhen look at Lin Feng with interest, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, which was more and more in line with his impression of the enthusiastic, intelligent, and promising young man who could put forward "Three Sparse Talents of a Strong Country" and ten questions about recruiting talents.

If only I could have a daughter, I must let her marry Lin Feng! After Liu Renzhen sighed in his heart, he couldn't help but shake his head slightly and laugh: What kind of occasion is this, how could he have such a ridiculous idea?

Li Jingsui, the king of Qi, looked back and forth twice, all of them were heads bowed and contemplative, turned his head to look at the sky outside the window, walked over and whispered two words to Li Jing, turned back, and said in a loud voice: "It is really not easy for everyone to go back to Beijing to get together, time is extremely precious, and the saint specially arranged a simple lunch for everyone, and everyone continued to discuss after the meal." ”

The imperial banquet, although it is simple, is still served like hundreds of dishes. There were no name tags placed on the imperial banquet, and everyone naturally sat down in turn according to their official positions, abiding by the rules of the imperial banquet one by one, and chewing food quietly.

After the meal, on the way back to Hanliang Palace, Liu Renzhen quietly fell down and walked in a row with Lin Feng, who was walking in the back.

Lin Feng admired this loyal and brave veteran very much, and immediately bowed down.

Liu Renzhen stopped him and asked him in a low voice that most of the ten questions about recruiting talents were related to military affairs, was all this planned by him early on?

Lin Feng didn't dare to boast so much, and immediately explained that his original intention in proposing the Ten Questions for Recruiting Talents was to discover more talents and strive to promote the all-round development of politics, economy, science and technology, and military in the Southern Tang Dynasty, but he just focused a little on the military.

Liu Renzhen looked at Lin Feng appreciatively, and couldn't help patting Lin Feng's shoulder with his left hand.

Lin Feng looked at the few fine beads of sweat that quietly slipped on the old man's dark and thin face, and couldn't help but feel excited in his heart, stretched out his right hand, and made an invitation gesture to shake hands.

Liu Renzhen looked at Lin Feng's right hand with some confusion, and stretched out his right hand with some hesitation.

Lin Feng shook his right hand, covered his left hand as well, shook it vigorously twice, and then said sincerely and softly to Liu Renzhen: "Lord Liu, the junior wants to ask for your sincere and selfless cooperation. ”

"Cooperation? What do you mean by that? Liu Renzhen said in some surprise, and his right hand was not withdrawn.

Lin Feng raised his right hand lightly and pointed to the western sky.

Liu Renzhen followed his finger to look west, pondered for a moment, and his eyes suddenly burst with strange excitement.

Lin Feng pointed to a big tree next to him again, and said softly: "The big tree is hollow, and it will fall down when you push it." ”

Liu Renzhen quietly pointed to the position of Li Jingsui, the king of Qi in front of him, and Lin Feng understood, and immediately whispered: "All have agreed." ”

Liu Renzhen rubbed his hands excitedly, if he took the Chu State in the west, the territory of the Southern Tang Dynasty would be more than doubled, and the strategic depth would be different immediately, and it would be a key step to affect the development of the Southern Tang Dynasty. He said softly, "There is indeed an abnormality, and I will continue to pay attention to it." In addition, I will definitely step up my military training in earnest. ”

Lin Feng smiled all over his face, gave Liu Renzhen a thumbs up, and slammed it to the ground.

The movements of the two finally attracted the attention of He Jingzhu, the assassin of Chuzhou and the history of the regimental training in front of him, he turned his head to look at the old man and the young man with a spring breeze, and said suspiciously: "What are you two muttering?" ”

"Back to Lord He, the kid is discussing ten questions about recruiting talents with Lord Liu." Lin Feng hurriedly saluted.

He Jingzhu glanced at the two of them a few more times, shook his head lightly and turned around.

Everyone returned to the main hall and sat down according to their names, and Li Jingsui, the king of Qi, did not talk nonsense, and directly asked everyone if they had any suggestions for the team project in the competition.

This time, Lin Feng directly lowered his head, ready to be a good listener.

There was silence in the hall for a while, and Chen Jun, the secretary of the military department, said: "Your Majesty, King Qi, there will be more teams in the competition next year, and it is not realistic for Weichen to consider the one-on-one competition like yesterday, how about setting a long-distance combat purpose that needs to test the physical strength, attack, defense and other contents of the team?" ”

Lin Feng couldn't help but look up in surprise at this white-faced middle-aged Confucian looking military department scholar, his thoughts were somewhat close to his own thoughts.

"What is Lord Chen's specific suggestion?" Li Jingsui asked.

"All the soldiers participating in the competition collectively trek a certain distance, and then turn back to the training ground to carry out the same offensive and defensive tasks, and those who complete the tasks within the specified time will be ranked according to the number of people." Chen Jun raised his voice slightly and said.

"What do you think?" Li Jingsui did not comment, and directly asked the people present.

Liu Renzhen nodded at first, then shook his head again. It's not easy to gauge the actual combat effectiveness of each team.

The rest of the people in the hall were also thinking about the pros and cons of this approach for their own team, and no one answered for a while.

Li Jingsui habitually turned to Lin Feng and asked, "Lord Lin, what do you think?" ”

Lin Feng couldn't be an audience anymore, so he had to stand up and say: "Chen Shangshu's idea is very good, Weichen has a small change suggestion, please forgive Chen Shangshu." ”

Chen Jun stretched out his hand very generously and motioned for Lin Feng to speak directly.

Lin Feng raised his voice and said: "Lin has always insisted that an army must be aimed at actual combat at all times, according to Chen Shangshu's suggestion, Lin would like to put forward such a supplementary suggestion: take the Qingliangshan training ground as the end point, and select two offensive routes of a mountain road and a river road respectively, with a distance of 200 miles and a time limit of two days. Before each team sets off from the starting point, they draw lots on the spot to choose whether they will attack by land or water, and each draw lots to select two groups of troops to be carried out at the same time in two ways; In the middle, the special forces led by Weichen carried out raids and attacks along the way to test their defense; Then, after the participating teams arrive at the Qingliangshan training ground within the time limit, they will attack a section of the city wall guarded by the same number of people, and after capturing the city wall, the team will be ranked according to the length of time for each team to successfully complete all the tasks, and then according to the number of remaining soldiers in each team! ”

At this moment, almost everyone in the hall looked at Lin Feng with some dumbfounded, such a test was too crazy, too perverted.

Lin Feng met these gazes very calmly, and said: "Everyone may think that the difficulty is a bit high, but our special training used to carry food and march three hundred miles hungry. I think this difficulty can be overcome by gritting your teeth. "Lin Feng's purpose has actually been very simple, that is, to force these local military and political officials to pay attention to the competition, select the best of the best, and screen out the real elite divisions.

Li Jingsui spoke at this time: "Everyone, after yesterday's martial arts competition, I reflected a lot, why did we never beat the Huai River since the founding of the Jiangnan country?" Why didn't you succeed in the war against Fujian? We regard the forbidden army as the elite of our country every day, but in fact, whether the daily training is serious and whether it really pays attention to the actual combat effect, we have clearly seen the positive and negative examples in yesterday's competition. ”

Li Jingsui's voice became louder and louder, and he was even a little angry: "Master Lin once said in "Three Sparse Powers of the Country" that the development of the country is like sailing against the current, and if you don't advance, you will retreat. Ladies and gentlemen, Wen Tian Wuhua has greatly misled the country! So I don't think Mr. Lin's suggestion is too much! ”

Li Jingsui confessed like this, and everyone couldn't answer.

After a pause, Li Jingsui raised his voice and said, "This time, I will be arbitrary, and the content of the competition will be based on Lord Lin's suggestion." Below, we will discuss the number of troops participating in various places. ”
