Chapter 88: Not a Simple Little Man
"This is a grand event for literati, to do it is to do the best, and people must not find criticism, but I think that since the purpose of the event is to select talents, it should not favor one over the other, and pay equal attention to civil and military, and at the same time hold a second martial arts conference in the world. ”
Cai Yong very much agreed with the reconsideration.
Cai Yan asked curiously: "I just don't know why it's the second martial arts conference in the world, isn't it better to be the first in the world?"
"In this martial arts competition, many strong warriors are destined not to have the opportunity to participate, such as my father-in-law Lu Bu, and some strong people such as Gao Zhong and Zhao Yun did not participate, how can they be the first in the world?"
Liu Xie's explanation made Cai Yong's father and daughter speechless, they didn't know whose strength was high, in fact, they were not very interested in this matter.
Liu Xie didn't say much to them, after all, their father and daughter love literature, and talking to them about these issues is, in a derogatory sense, playing the piano to the cow.
It is enough to discuss the affairs of the Wenhui with them, and the martial arts conference is to find other people to discuss again.
Cai Yan is a rare talented woman, and he is preparing to find a master for Queen Guo.
Isn't that just right now?
Liu Xie is very interested in Cai Yan, a beauty who has shined in history.
"It is said that Miss Cai Yan is both talented and talented, and she is excellent at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting?"
Cai Yan's face was slightly blushing, quiet and elegant.
"I only know a little bit about it, where is it proficient. ”
Liu Xie saw that her face was slightly red, and the corners of her mouth were hooked.
"You're a talented woman, and being too modest is pride. ”
Cai Yan was quite twisted, but Cai Yong on the side changed his complexion slightly.
He thought that Liu Xie had become interested in his daughter, and there were already several concubines in His Majesty's harem today, but he couldn't look at them with ordinary eyes, so he was ready to leave.
"Your Majesty, you are busy with affairs, so the minister and the little girl will retire first and not bother you. ”
"Cai Shangshu is slow, I have something to ask Ling Ai to help ......"
Cai Yong sighed in his heart, but he didn't say much.
"There is a little sister in the palace, smart and clever, and now there is a shortage of teachers, I think Miss Cai Yan is the most suitable. ”
Liu Xie looked at Cai Wenji sincerely and said, "Please also ask Miss Cai Yan to help." ”
Of course, Cai Yong can see that Liu Xie admires Cai Yan very much, and even has a strange thought in his eyes.
He thought to himself, sure enough, Your Majesty wants to get close to the water and get the moon first.
Looking at Liu Xie's burning eyes, Cai Yan was a little flustered.
"Concubine...... I'm worried that I won't be able to teach well. ”
"Don't worry, with your talent, you are competent, it is very good that my sister can reach such a high level as you, I don't expect her to be better than blue."
"Then I'll be disrespectful!"
"Haha, good!"
After Cai Yong's father and daughter left, Liu Xie once again convened Xun Yu and other ministers and Yue Fei and other generals to discuss the second martial arts conference in the world and the recruitment of new soldiers.
......
Just after the heavy snowfall, the sky was exceptionally refreshing.
The roads were muddy, horses were treading over them, muddy water was splashing.
Dozens of miles away from Luoyang City, Xu Rong personally led fifty horsemen and began to inspect.
Over the years, he has followed Dong Zhuo in countless battles, and he has a lot of experience.
Cao Cao and Sun Jian in the history of the earth have been defeated by him, Cao Cao is known for his wisdom, Sun Jian is known for his bravery, and he can defeat them, no matter what the reason, it can also be seen that Xu Rong's talent is extraordinary, and it cannot be a general.
Suddenly, he looked at the muddy road and frowned slightly.
"Fifty horsemen have left not long ago, chase!"
Following the mottled marks of horses' hooves, they pursued them as fast as they could, and soon they spotted fifty horsemen in front of them.
And the fifty cavalry in front also understood that the other side did not have many men and horses, and did not flee. Seeing that the other party only had fifty horsemen, the number of them was equal, and they immediately waited for the battle, ready to destroy this group of cavalry.
Such vanguard scouts are all the elite of the elite.
Both sides found the strength of the other party, however, the opponent's formation was more scattered, and on Xu Rong's side, all the soldiers were in a neat formation.
The cold wind blowing, still cold, hurts like a knife.
However, the army led by Xu Rong did not move.
The cavalry on the opposite side finally changed their faces slightly, knowing that they had encountered a strong enemy.
"Kill!"
As Xu Rong's fierce face bloomed hideously, he roared.
The entire cavalry force followed, and the cavalry formed a strange formation, like a sharp knife, straight into the heart of the opponent.
The cavalry on the opposite side, although everyone is very strong in individual combat, does not seem to have the concept of team combat.
Fighting on their own, when this Ling Ran's momentum swooped in, they felt as if they were being targeted by a powerful beast, and their eyes were instantly filled with fear.
The dirt splashed suddenly, but the soldiers on Xu Rong's side were not affected in the slightest, and it seemed that an external force forced the dirt forward.
"They...... There is a formation!"
The leader of the other party roared in horror, and was covered by the overwhelming mud.
Before they could blink, a powerful force of impact came at them.
Suddenly, the man turned on his back.
Some people were shocked to death by the force of the powerful impact, and some people were knocked away and fell to their deaths.
Just the moment of the battle, they completely fell into disadvantage.
When Xu Rong's cavalry tore open the break in the opponent's formation, the other party no longer had any combat effectiveness.
Suddenly, flesh and blood flew everywhere, human heads were thrown away, and blood was sprinkled all over the earth.
The air was filled with the smell of blood.
In an instant, more than half of the fifty horsemen were killed and wounded, and they were crushed with such a blow, which the other party did not expect to see at all, and the remaining soldiers and horses turned around and wanted to flee.
After that, it was a merciless hunt.
......
"Regarding the second martial arts conference in the world, it can be announced to the world that there are many masters in the people, and maybe some talents can be selected for me!"
This second martial arts conference in the world, Yue Fei and other generals are a little more interested, but in order to select talents, Xun Yu and Xun Yu and other ministers are also actively making suggestions.
Soon after the discussion, this matter was decided, in fact, most of the promotion and selection methods were formulated by Liu Xie, after all, after experiencing the previous life, Liu Xie knew the promotion methods of various competitions.
Others are only impressed.
This matter came to an end, and Liu Xie discussed with everyone about the recruitment of new recruits.
"Regarding the recruitment of new recruits, it shouldn't be a big problem, right?"
Yue Fei said with admiration: "Your Majesty is strict in training recruits, but the conditions are generous.
In addition, His Majesty is not stingy with their lives, and now the young and middle-aged people in Luoyang are waiting for His Majesty to re-issue the recruitment order. ”
The military camp was originally kept secret and not public, but in order to be able to recruit new soldiers and leave a good impression among the people, Liu Xie instructed that the well-trained soldiers should go out from time to time to show their good side.
Before and after entering the barracks, these soldiers were like two people, and all these changes were seen by the people.
In addition, there are special people who deliberately publicize it, and even the families of various soldiers are spreading the good news of the barracks, which makes many young and middle-aged people yearn for the barracks.
Liu Xie nodded, there was no surprise about this, the early recruitment orders were all recruited by each military camp itself, and the second recruitment was a unified recruitment.
Xun You reminded: "It's just that the number of recruits has to be controlled, and now Your Majesty has obtained a sum of money, but at this rate, I'm afraid it will soon be exhausted!"
"As for the issue of funding, you don't have to worry too much, you can appropriately relax the scale of recruitment, and I will find a way to raise funds myself. ”
Liu Xie thought to himself, he had to take out the funds in the imperial tomb as soon as possible, but he couldn't be cheaper than the tomb robbers in the future.
At this time, Xiao Zhangzi came in and said happily to Liu Xie: "Your Majesty, the latest detective of Jinyiwei has heard the latest news, Captain Xu Rong and the coalition scouts have encountered and annihilated the enemy army!"
Liu Xie's expression perked up, "Oh, what about the casualties?"
The first battle was won, and it was a good start.
"The cavalry led by Captain Xu did not suffer any losses!"
"Okay! Yuanfang, what do you think?"
