"Second brother, don't worry, your sister is my sister, not to mention Xiangxiang I grew up watching...... You can arrange to go to Yanwutang for further study first, and in the future, you can either enter the staff headquarters of the Wuchang First Division, or stay in the general staff of the Privy Council in Jinling. Bai Tu promised Sun Ce.

Although many women enlisted in the martial arts test this time, Chu was not prepared to really put them into the front-line army......

If there are really women generals who are good at military strategy, they can be dispatched to the staff of each unit.

"No, where is she? If she could learn military strategy, she would have learned it at home. Sun Ce shook his head when he heard this.

The Sun family is not a small family, and they have to go to the martial arts hall to learn this.

"Do you want to go to the medical class?" Bai Tu asked in a different way of thinking.

The advantages of women generals are mainly in being careful, responsible, and affinity, so they will focus on being assigned to medical and communication positions, and the existence of women generals itself is the promotion of the military spirit - women joining the army not only confirms the eight policies of the Chu State, but also reflects the military spirit and the people's heart of the Chu State.

"If I were an injured person, I wouldn't worry about her coming for medical treatment." Sun Ce's head shook faster.

"That's ......" Bai Tu was still a little hesitant.

However, Sun Ce had already said directly: "I hope she will join Su Wei directly...... Actually, I came this time to ask my sister-in-law. ”

Sun Ce said, and smiled at Lu Lingqi with a little flattery.

Lv Lingqi: ......

What else could Lu Lingqi say, so she had to nod and say, "If the second brother is relieved, then leave it to me." ”

Although Lu Lingqi is still very wary of adding another woman to the guards, she ...... First, Sun Shangxiang's words, Lu Lingqi is also very familiar, when the other party was six or seven years old, he already came to know, and secondly, Sun Shangxiang is only fourteen years old this year, with Bai Tu's character, looking at his performance when he first met him, he will not have any thoughts about children of this age.

If she was four or five years older, Lu Lingqi was afraid that she would not be so easy to agree.

Seeing that Lu Lingqi agreed, Sun Ce also had a matter on his mind, after all, there was no danger in the guard, and he was taken care of by his eldest brother, so he was Sun Ce's most reassuring position.

As for the guards, there are times when they are also in danger?

As the tiger daughter of the Sun family, in order to protect the king of Chu, Sun Ce also felt that it was right.

As for the other female generals, most of them were sent to the martial arts hall for further study, those with military strategic talent were arranged to the general staff, and the others were arranged to the medical class, communication class, and propaganda department according to their personality and strengths......

The emergence of women generals reflects the military spirit and the people's heart of the Chu State is one thing, and it is another thing to really let people take the lead in the charge.

Even so, many scholars from outside the Chu State and stationed in Jinling have already looked sideways, and they don't understand this kind of behavior of making women join the army, and even lead to some gossip.

For example, Liu Yan, who has been admitted to Jinling University, has repeatedly criticized this, not only arguing with other students, but also submitting articles to major newspapers, criticizing this kind of behavior.

Even......

In the midst of all the attention, this article was also published after adding You Heng's introduction.

You Heng's introduction is naturally not very polite, pointing out that this is a scholar outside the Chu State, and does not recognize the symbol of Chu Studies.

Moreover, Chu Xue represents the interests of the people and protects the rights and interests of women, so it can be deduced that the princes outside the Chu State do not represent the interests of the people and are the enemies of the people......

When Liu Yan saw the introduction, he was so angry that his nose was crooked, but he still had some confidence in his heart, after all, ...... If your own article is indeed published, it can be seen by more people, and you will naturally be able to convince others!

However...... At this time, with the support of the national strength of the Chu State, or the living standard of the Chu people, Chu Xue's self-confidence has been established, even if their doubts are "unclear" in the eyes of ordinary people, but they ......

Kindness? Do you have an opinion on Chu Xue?

That must be your fault, otherwise why can't your people eat meat, read books, or look down on doctors? If you want to improve, you have to learn from us!

When Liu Yan found out that his article was not only criticized by the scholars of the Chu State, but even the ordinary people were laughing at him, he was furious...... Drop out of school and leave.

As for Yang Yi and others, they drew a line with him early on-we are here to learn!

……

Just when the second imperial examination of the Chu State was over and providing more fresh blood for the reform of prefectures and counties, Ling Tong, who was stationed in Liaodong Port, heard a news that made him a little concerned.

This news was first transmitted from Yan Hou......

The first thing that started was that a few months earlier, the Wei State had succeeded in building a new type of textile machine, the Wei spinning wheel.

Although he had only heard of some structural features, Ling Tong felt that this should be the improvement of the textile machine of the Chu State!

In contrast, the textile machines of the Chu State do not have such a high level of secrecy, if someone really settles down to study in the Chu State, it is normal to bring them back to the Wei State now, and the skillful craftsman battalion of the Wei State is originally good at "improvement".

Ling Tong also believed that this kind of thing did not need to be reported by himself, and the Wind Catcher must have gotten the news a long time ago.

It's just that then, the matter has set off a chain reaction!

In the eastern Xianbei, Wuhuan, and even further east Goguryeo, there were tribes that were repeatedly looted, and a large number of tribesmen were plundered, and cattle and sheep were robbed......

In the end, even the alarmed Yan Hou - after all, Yan Hou, that is, the former Liaodong Gongsun clan, although he has always been a foreign race to subdue the votes of Wuhuan, Xianbei, Goguryeo, and Buyeo by force, but nominally he is also the leader of the alliance and the mediator of contradictions in the north of Youzhou.

Although this is just a means for the Gongsun clan to dominate Liaodong, but now that they really can't do it, they naturally come to Gongsun Kang to "uphold justice".

After a little tracking, it was found that these small groups of slave hunting teams were basically from the Wei State......

Therefore, Gongsun Kang sent Wei to persuade Wei to stop this kind of behavior - in essence, Gongsun Kang did not dare to turn against Wei, let alone ...... The Wei State is now only targeting those alien races in the north and northeast, and if he doesn't care about it, it will only damage the prestige of the Gongsun clan among the alien races, and it will not directly attack himself.

However, Wei directly denied sending troops and ordered Gongsun to stop slandering ......

Upon further investigation, it was discovered that this was indeed the case...... That's weird!

It is true that these slave hunting teams, which are as few as dozens or as many as thousands, are not the regular army of Wei, but the private soldiers of the northern scholars, but ...... Can you explain why there are Himezo soldiers among these private soldiers, and they are even equipped with plate armor?

Of course, even so, the Gongsun clan did not dare to confront the Wei State after all, and after the Wei State showed toughness, Gongsun Kang only perfunctorily appeased the leaders of the various tribes.

Although Gongsun Kang is domineering, Wuhuan and Xianbei are ...... Even if it is his brother-in-law's Buyeo country, he is not his own person in his eyes.

However, later, the scope of action of the slave catcher team of the Wei State even spread from the sea route to Sanhan in the southern part of the Fried Seafood Peninsula......

Some wealthy families directly used their own fleets to go to Samhan to plunder labor, and some even directly took root in the local area and established sweatshops with arms.

Some of the Sanhan people who came to Liaodong to do business were also looted on the way, and after the remnants arrived at the port, they reported to the Chu garrison.

On several occasions, after measuring the time and speed, Ling Tong immediately ordered troops to chase after him......

Those northern warriors did not dare to blow up their wings with the fleet of the Chu State, and if they were blocked by the Chu State, they would usually release them directly, and within the range of the Chu State's cruise, they would also be more restrained, but they would ...... The sea was too big, and when it was in Sanhan, the state of Chu could not control it, and it was impossible to search for ships that did not dock at the two ports in Liaodong.

Ling Cao thought of the earnest teachings of the King of Chu and General Taishi, and thought that although the Wei State did not dare to do anything to other Han people, it was also harmful to the general righteousness and contrary to Chu Studies, and it was no different from the jackal behavior of the Xiongnu in the former Han Dynasty, so he specially sent someone to report the matter.

As for when the news reached Bai Tu's hands......

Indeed, as Ling Cao thought, Bai Tu had already obtained more specific information from the Wind Catcher.

After all, Huang Tianji has not been able to find it, if he doesn't even know about such a large-scale operation of Wei State, then Tai Shi Ci is afraid that he will have to resign with guilt.

However, Ling Cao's report focused more on the senses of the Sanhan, Buyeo and other tribes, and the Wei State's move......

The report of the Chasing Wind Guard is more focused on the internal situation of the Wei State - after all, for the sparsely populated tribes in the north, whether in terms of importance or the difficulty of lurking, the Chasing Wind Guard will not pay much attention to it, but the movements of the Wei people have always been the focus of monitoring.

In fact, at the beginning of this year, the Qiaojiang Battalion imitated and improved the textile machine of the Chu State - after all, this kind of pure mechanical products are easy to imitate......

Because of the lack of upland cotton that can give full play to the performance of the textile machine, it is only spinning and spinning linen, so the utilization efficiency of multi-spindle looms in Chu is not high, but it is already very common among the people, and if you really make up your mind to spy on it, it is impossible to keep it secret.

After the Wei State obtained the improved loom machine, it also followed the example of the Chu State and shared the technology for a fee—similar to the situation in Jiangdong at the beginning, a new tax would be objectionable, but it would be much easier to accept to open up a new industry and tax it from the beginning.

Therefore, the wealthy families in the north have set their sights on wool, which is more suitable for weaving and more cold-proof, as well as ...... "white picking labor".

In the past, for the wealthy right of the family, these alien races were useless, wild and untamable, and they could not farm, and the farmers who farmed the land were also abundant.

And now the shortage of labor, as well as the operability of the textile machine, coupled with the fact that the Wei State has released the private purchase rights of some ordnance in disguise, and even allowed a small number of Jizao soldiers to be converted into domestic soldiers...... Even more tempting for them to start stirring up the storm in the north!

In an ordinary small tribe, dozens of plate armored cavalry can be swept away, and medium-sized tribes cannot stop hundreds of plate armored cavalry, directly killing or limiting the adult males, taking away cattle and sheep, captive women and children back to work as laborers......

As for the large tribes?

Directly use a large number of woolen fabrics to trade cattle and sheep and even slaves with them to achieve a "virtuous circle".

The direct impact on the state of Chu has also been shown - in the north, the Jiangdong brocade and cloth of the state of Chu, the bottom market has been rapidly squeezed.

Compared with the Chu State, the cost of the blood-dyed wool weaving industry in the Wei State is indeed low enough, and the wool is also more cold-proof and suitable for the north......
