Simply put, it is the embodiment of blind allegiance. The students of the various branches of Rongcheng Academy began to assemble in groups of their respective branches and swore allegiance to Ding Yi. It was not uncommon for this to happen before, but it was generally a private gathering, so as not to be so blatant, directly in Smyrna, Athens, Cairo, Suez, Rhode Island and other places, directly booked restaurants, and openly swore an oath.

Secret assemblies and assemblies are two different concepts. Just like Dunlun and the broad daylight field war, it has never been a concept.

Drinking two cups in private, saying that an elderly person or boss has a great favor to him and must repay him in the future is not the same thing as doing it now. These people dare to do this because Ding Yiyi is their emperor, loyal to the king, and righteous, and they don't have to worry about breaking the law at all.

After receiving the information, Ding Yi was extremely shocked and angry, but in the face of his order to investigate thoroughly, Tan Feng stood up and said directly to Ding Yi: "The root of this matter is really Mr. If it weren't for the filial piety of the former prime minister, there would be no such thing. ”

"I serve Mr. Yu filial piety and cause such a trend?" Ding Yi frowned and looked at Tan Feng, only the latter dared to speak so bluntly in front of Ding Yi. However, Ding Yi really didn't understand, "What is the inevitable relationship and logic between the two?" How is it possible to blame this state of affairs on me? If you want to say that they are better to the teachers in the academy, it comes down to me, Tan Feng, don't sell it directly. ”

Although Tan Feng is iron-faced and selfless, now facing Ding Yi, he has to work hard to withstand the psychological pressure given by Ding: "Sir." If something is good, it will be effective. You have made a gesture of respect for the relationship between teachers and students. Then the students of the academy naturally think so. This is what you are advocating. But the students of the academy, we don't think that the teacher is a gentleman in the traditional sense, for us, you are our gentleman. ”

There is a historical reason for this, because the first people who entered the academy were all children of poor families or children of fallen soldiers. Not only did the college not charge tuition, but it also gave them room and board, as well as new clothes and shoes that they had never dared to imagine before. Crudely speaking. It was the affection of a group of orphans for an orphanage. Moreover, Rongcheng Academy is not in the same state as an orphanage, but allows students to eat fish and meat to ensure nutrition, which means that life is better than that of ordinary people. These students from the academy have feelings for Ding Yi, which is actually not difficult to understand.

There is no need to talk about beliefs, there is no need to talk about ideas, it is that the conditions are better than most of the private welfare institutions in society, and when they grow up, they also take over the employment problem! As long as it is an individual, a mentally normal person. For the director of this welfare home, he must be grateful and worshipped. What's more, when they were growing up as teenagers, they were always instilled with ideas and received propaganda. As well as Ding Yi's creation of zào, victory after victory!

"Then what do you say!" Ding Yi also had a headache when he heard Tan Feng's words. He didn't want to be a dictator, and he didn't think about getting a dynasty out. What he wanted. It is a country that develops steadily, even if there is a problem with the head of state or the upper officials of a certain term. The country's system can also be slowly restored.

A high degree of centralization certainly develops quickly, if it goes in the right direction. But with the risk is also great, and Ding Yi does not need to take this risk at all, he has this capital, let the successor make mistakes, even if the country stagnates for several years, because of the innate advantage, it will not collapse. Just like Britain in the original history, no matter how unbearable it is, after all, it turned out to be an empire on which the sun never sets, but it is a loser, and it will take a while to lose the family business, right?

"In this way, the seniority of the academy will become a tool, and it is likely to bring about the corruption of the entire bureaucratic system!" Ding Yi has experienced the "diploma craze", and he knows the evils of this.

Tan Feng replied very directly: "Don't care, or prosecute them." ”

Leave it alone, of course, no problem, is it wrong for the people to be loyal to the emperor? It's absolutely right in any country, right? What are you doing here?

So Tan Feng's words are not unreasonable.

Not every person who is faithful and upright possesses these virtues, but also possesses wisdom beyond ordinary people.

At least for Tan Feng, that's it. His answer obviously made Ding Yi feel crying and laughing.

Because this is not a matter that can be left unattended, and it is impossible to use the method of purging inexplicably to prosecute officials or generals loyal to Ding Yi! Is there something wrong with Ding Yi? He wants to stop this "shortcut to the south" that may exist because of this, and he is not trying to commit suicide!

Ding Yi waved his hand and motioned for Tan Feng to step back first.

He walked out of the study and strolled down the aisle outside, but when he walked to the official room of the attendant's room, Ding Yi heard the sound of a quarrel: "Brother You, the younger brother thinks that it is better to present this to his father." But it was Li Dongyang's voice, and it was obvious that he and Liu Ji had an argument about something. And Liu Ji's voice also sounded, "This is just the sorrow of the defeated army's death, why should there be a dirty saint to listen?" ”

Neither of them is the kind of character who will blush and have a thick neck, and even the tone is stable, but the taste of confrontation in it is clear to Ding Yi. So Ding Yi waved his hand for Jeddah to come over and let both of them come out and speak.

Li Dongyang came out and bowed: "Father." ”

Liu Ji came out, and when he saw Ding Yi, he was long and touched the ground: "Disciple knock on Mr. ......"

But before he finished speaking, he was pulled up by Ding Yi: "What's wrong to learn?" Learn from Lao Cao as a kowtow worm? Speak well. ”

Don't look at Liu Ji being cut by Ding Yi, but the difference between intimacy and intimacy can be seen clearly even by a rough man like Jida, and it is obvious that Liu Ji is more favored and close to Ding Yi than his son Li Dongyang.

Liu Ji has been by Ding Yi's side for so many years, and his status is not only comparable to Li Dongyang, who has the name of a righteous son.

"What's the noise?" Ding Yi asked.

These two of them both have a city government, and they immediately began to take the responsibility on themselves, because if they attacked each other in front of Ding Yi, the number of paragraphs was too low. Only by taking the responsibility on yourself can you show that you are the backbone of the attendant room.

Ding has repeatedly not been good at scheming, but over the years, this kind of drama has been seen through at a glance, but he didn't reprimand them, but just stretched out his hand and said to the two of them: "Okay, stop." What defeated generals? Show it to me. ”

What caused the quarrel was a letter, a letter from Huaxia, as Liu Ji said, a letter written by the general of the defeated army.

The person who wrote the letter, Ding Yi is no stranger, Shi Heng, the former head of the Ming army, after the defeat of the attempt to kill Ding, was thrown to the Ming Royal Military Academy in Beijing and became a teacher.

Shi Heng is very ill, according to Liu Ji, maybe he is sick and confused, and his family wants to visit him, but he, like Yexian, is a teacher who is being monitored, so naturally he has to pass the inspection of the yamen of the Guò Security Bureau. As a result, Shi Heng was so angry that he didn't know what to do, so he wrote such a letter to Ding Yi. Most of the above is abuse, of course, there is not a word of foul language, or you can't believe it, you can't send Ding Yi here.

What he meant was that he felt that Ding Yi was lucky enough to steal the sky: "Your Majesty's talent, Yu Xiaoqi is inexplicably elite, but the position he can do is only the general banner, and it is difficult to entrust him to hundreds of households!" However, the providence of God made people and taught His Majesty to do things! ”

He was even more polite than Yu Qian, Yu Qian also said that Ding Yi could lead an army of thousands of people, and Shi Heng said that Ding Yi was just a strong and awesome little flag, and it was the general flag, and hundreds of households were not qualified to be it. Then he listed many examples, that is, a series of military operations after Ding Yi arrived in Beijing.

Mainly started from Tumu Fort, went to Maoerzhuang to rescue Yingzong, and went to the Jingshi to defend the night camp of Zhan Xue, including the sister Badama, who rescued Yexian outside the gate, and founded the Duyin tribe - about from the mouth of Yexian, who taught in the academy with him, after all, for about ten years, they had too much free time to ponder Ding Yi.

All in all, Shi Heng believes that the victory of these examples can only illustrate one fact, that is, Ding Yi is a small banner and manages ten people, which is extremely elite; When a general banner leads dozens of people, he is also competent; But to be a hundred households and lead hundreds of people to fight, it is not that level!

Even he also separated the battle examples of Ding Yi's capture of Yexian, and then analyzed that Ding Yi's real strength in a large number of falls and ridicules was nothing more than "holding dozens of elites and doing Jing Ke's things!" Jing Ke is an assassin, he thinks that the difference between Ding Yi and Jing Ke is just "courage is stronger than Jing Ke, martial arts is better than Zhuzhu, and eyesight is stronger than Bolangsha's big iron spine!" ”

As for the defense of the Beijing Division, Ding Yi led the rescued prisoners, with hundreds of people to break thousands of horses, Shi Heng thought: "It's just the advantage of firearms!" After the battle deeds, Shi Heng also thought, "Husband gunner, if you use a hundred steel blades against copper swords, there is no reason to be invincible?" It's not the strategy of the majesty xià to win! ”

Ding Yi looked at it but nodded, only he knows best in this world, Shi Heng is level, and there is really no one who can leave a name in history. Ding is the king of soldiers, yes, but it is true that he has no problem at all as a squad leader, and leading a platoon, basically, at least in the rescue of Yingzong, is his true level, and his subordinates are immediately hundred, and he is very difficult.

"That's good." Ding Yi pointed to Shi Heng's letter scolding him, and carefully removed the section where Ding Yi was captured, in fact, thousands of people from the Duyin tribe were all building momentum, and there were only dozens of people who really acted. Ding Yi reached out to the guards on the side to ask for a pencil, circled that section, and said to Liu Ji and Li Dongyang, "Send someone over and ask Shi Zongzhen to break down this operation a little more, I need two documents, one is every detail that led to that operation at that time; One is that as a commander, why shouldn't he go on an adventure in person, and ask Mr. Shi to talk about it. Send someone to tell him, and if he agrees, it will be published and printed in a book, the former as a teaching material for special operations, and the latter as a negative case in the training of commanders at and above the regimental level. For fifty years, he was paid for every batch of books printed. ”

"That's right." Ding Yi wanted to leave after explaining, but when he thought about it again, he said to Liu Ji, "Let Xiao Zhangzi not embarrass him, he likes to scold me, as long as it's not foul language, if you scold like this, let him scold, it's okay." ”

Ding Yi's mood became better, because he already had a solution to the problem that Tan Feng had raised, and the students who had publicly sworn allegiance to him. (To be continued......)
