Chapter Ninety-Nine: Why?
Xiao Qidao had also mentioned that he wanted to participate in the recruitment examination of the Martial Academy, but after An Zheng's persuasion, he gave up. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
An Zheng persuaded him like this: "Do you say that you are an eight-year-old child who went to participate in the recruitment examination of the martial arts academy? Is it like a word?
Although the Empress Dowager Su Qingnuan decreed that girls were allowed to participate in the recruitment examination of the Martial Arts Academy and several other academies, in fact, not many people came. This is still an era that needs to change concepts, even if the Queen Mother allows it, my father and mother will not allow it. The general reason is that if you are a girl, you should learn to be a girl at home or something. I don't know how many girls with dreams have been stifled by such uninspired rhetoric.
The assessment of the martial arts academy is very interesting, there is no written test.
Because the Martial Arts Academy has enough teaching and training, and the military department will also send people to assist, more than 700 candidates are divided into 20 examination rooms at the same time. In the morning, the examiner gives the questions, and the people below rely on reactions to complete the questions. In the afternoon, it is the martial arts examination, which is the highlight. The martial arts examination is divided into three items, the first is the detection of the cultivation realm, relying on the nine-star platform. The second item is mounted archery, the Yan people are good at martial arts, and riding archery is a must. Because the relationship between the Yan Kingdom and the northern nomads has always been good, the number of war horses has always been quite large. This is also the reason why only the Yan Kingdom has a powerful heavy armored cavalry, and in the other countries of the Sixteen Kingdoms, there is simply no good enough war horse to carry the heavy armored cavalry.
The third is a competition, and your opponents are randomly selected by the examiner. Everyone's name is written on a slip of paper and placed in a box, which is then drawn by the examiner.
The martial arts test can be completed in half a day, and it will continue the next day.
According to Lao Huo's words, An Zheng's luck is always so strange. Sometimes good luck that doesn't even make sense can fall from the sky with a snap and smash your head all over your face.
But this time, An Zheng's luck seems to be a little worse.
An Zheng was assigned to Group A, which is the first examination room. The martial arts academy instructor in charge of this exam is Chang Huan, the youngest instructor of the martial arts academy at present, who is not yet thirty years old. And the reason why he can have such an identity and status is because he is really strong enough, and secondly, because when he was studying in the Martial Arts Academy, he was personally taught by Vice Dean Yan Chu. And Chang Huan was not assigned to serve in the army under the Ministry of War after graduation, but was forcibly left in the martial arts academy to teach.
This person has a somewhat gloomy personality and doesn't seem to like dealing with new students very much. Some teachers will feel that the growth of students is their own sense of achievement, and they will be very happy and proud. But Chang Huan doesn't think so, he thinks it's just a boring job.
The chief examiner is Chang Huan, and the deputy examiner is a director from the Ministry of War, whose name is Xu Chao. The grade of the principal is not high, but the authority is not small, and it is a very important part of the position in the yamen. Xu Chao is also very young, looking to be about twenty-five or sixteen years old. When he sat there, his upper body was straight, and his face was solemn. This person is very tough-looking, with sharp eyebrows, and belongs to the kind of handsome man with masculinity.
He had just been transferred back to the military department from the army, and many people in the military department died a while ago, and he got the news that he was transferred to the military department the next day, and Chen Zaiyan personally named him.
Chang Huan nodded to Xu Chao, then stood up and said, "You all know the rules, so I don't need to say anything." From now until I say the end, no one is allowed to talk, and both interlocutors will be disqualified at the same time. There are eight inspectors in this room, and you can see your every move clearly. This is a life-changing event, and I hope you all take it seriously, and if you are disqualified because of the exchange of ears, I think you may regret not being able to sleep. ”
"All of you here may be the pillars of Dayan in the future, and one day in the future, when I see you, you will also bow according to the rules. Of course, there are very few people with this qualification, so I want each of you to be 12 points serious. Don't think that the martial arts exam in the afternoon is the focus, because if I can't pass this level, you may not even be qualified for the martial arts exam. ”
Someone below gasped, apparently not very confident in their ability to adapt.
Chang Huan glanced at everyone, and then said, "Let's start the exam, you pay attention to every word I say." ”
"Now you are all junior officers in the army, and on the battlefield, your commanders have made a mistake in judgment, which has led to your defeat. At this time, the Lord will still be obsessed with the wrong command, how do you respond? There are two answers, the first ...... Regardless of whether the judgment of the commander-in-chief is right or wrong, strictly abide by the commander-in-chief's military orders, do not question, and do not slack off. Second, present your opinion to the Lord, and if the Lord does not adopt it, then you will contact more people and fight in the way you think is right. ”
He looked at all the candidates: "Raise your left hand for the first answer, and raise your right hand for the second answer." ”
Almost everyone was embarrassed, and it really wasn't a good topic. According to military law, the orders of the commander-in-chief must be obeyed unconditionally. But the premise of this question is that the Lord will be wrong.
"I had to make a choice before I counted to ten. ”
Chang Huan began to count, although everyone was very embarrassed, but after counting ten numbers, most of them still made a choice. Of the less than forty people present, ninety percent chose the first, and the remaining few chose the second, but An Zheng didn't choose anything.
There are four civilian officials in the examination room, who are responsible for recording each person's performance. Each of them had a form in their hand with the name of everyone in the room. The civilian officials stood up and looked at it, then sketched the form, filled out each person's answers, and then made an evaluation.
There are only three categories of evaluations, excellent, good, and poor.
All the candidates who chose the first place were added with a good word after their names. All candidates who chose second had a bad word added to their names.
Chang Huan's gaze stayed on An Zheng's body: "Why don't you choose." ”
An Zheng stood up and replied: "The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and I don't think there are only two options. ”
Chang Huan asked: "But there are only two options here, what is your answer?"
An Zheng shook his head: "If there are only these two choices on the battlefield, then they can only be defeated." I, the Dayan soldiers, are not pursuing defeat, but winning every battle. If I had to choose one or the other, I would rather lose my qualification for the exam than choose it. ”
Chang Huan was just about to reprimand, but Xu Yan asked, "Why do you think these two choices are wrong?"
An Zheng raised his head and said loudly: "It is true that the duty of a soldier is to obey, but if you know that the main general is wrong, it is very likely to lead to the annihilation of the whole army." At this time, if you can't adjust your tactics in time, you will lose a corner and lose the whole situation, and tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, may die. Therefore, if you blindly obey the commander, even if you do not violate military discipline, you are still a sinner. Second, if a small group of people are gathered to fight according to their own ideas, it is equivalent to dividing the combat power of the team. The commander fights with some people, others fight with some people, and the forces are separated, and the best result is to save a small number of people, but this best result will not come to the end. Seven or eight out of ten, they were divided and killed, and the whole army was still wiped out. ”
Xu Chao asked again: "Then if it's you, how do you choose." ”
An Zheng took a deep breath: "Kill the boss." ”
As soon as he said these three words, the audience was booed and exclaimed.
The pen in Xu Chao's hand paused, and he raised his head to look at An Zheng: "What did you just say?"
An Zheng replied seriously: "Advise the coach, the coach does not listen, please make a decision to the deputy commander, if the deputy commander and most of the generals think that the coach is wrong, the coach can be detained, and the deputy commander temporarily takes the position of the commander." But most of the time, the deputy marshal doesn't have the guts. And if the commander is detained, the morale of the army will be chaotic. So kill the coach, as soon as the coach dies, the deputy coach will have most of his worries. ”
Chang Huan sneered: "Do you think this way the army will not be defeated?"
An Zheng replied: "Logically, there will still be defeat, but it may save more people to survive." If a manager is unconscious, then the war has not yet started is actually doomed. ”
Chang Huan was silent and turned his head to look at Xu Chao.
Xu Yan asked: "But if you do this, what will happen to you?"
An Zheng replied, "Surely he will die." After killing the boss, even if he wins, most of the deputy commanders will not take the responsibility of killing the boss, and this responsibility is of course borne by me. A person who can be the head coach must have a prominent family background, so he must also give an explanation to the head coach's family. Therefore, this question is not a test of tactics and the quality of soldiers, but loyalty or not. But I want to ask, if you are faithful, you will die...... How many people's hearts will be chilled by this topic?"
He looked at Chang Huan and Xu Chao: "This topic, it's better to change it to how you should die." ”
Everyone looked at each other, shocked by the answer An Zheng found.
Yes, no matter what, it seems that loyalty is certain death. Blindly obey the boss and you will surely die. Divide the ranks, and you will surely die. Even if it is the answer given by An Zheng, it is still certain death.
An Zheng's rhetorical question, Chang Huan didn't know how to answer, and Xu Chao didn't know how to answer, because the question itself was unsolvable.
In fact, from a personal point of view, you can be a deserter. But on the battlefield, deserters can live?
All the candidates were depressed and became less excited. They don't know why, at this moment, they feel that they have lost their motivation to join the army. They feel that everyone sitting here may be a corpse that will fall beside them in the future.
There were two girls sitting in the front row, who didn't look very old, sixteen or seventeen years old. One of them looked like he had some baby fat, and he was sweet and cute. The other is a very beautiful apricot face, and her eyes are also very large, so you can tell at a glance that she is the kind of girl who is very outgoing. When I entered the door just now, I checked my identity one by one, and An Zheng knew that the sweet girl was called Ding Ningdong, and the outgoing girl was called Sang Rou.
Ding Ningdong's eyes were full of curiosity when he looked at An Zheng, while there were some very strange things in Sang Rou's eyes, shiny.
There was a depressed mood all around, and Chang Huan and Xu Chao didn't know how to recover it for a while.
An Zheng took a deep breath, and then continued: "That's why there is a martial academy. ”
Everyone was stunned and looked up at An Zheng.
An Zheng said: "The purpose of running the school of the Martial Academy is to make the army of Great Yan have no stupid generals above and no inferior soldiers below. Everyone who comes out of the martial arts academy will not become the kind of boss in this topic. And no matter whether the person who will be handsome in the future is from a famous family or a poor family, as long as he joins the army, he will be out of the martial arts academy. Therefore, in the future, the army of Great Yan will definitely not appear in this topic. ”
Xu Chao's eyes lit up, and Chang Huan's expression relaxed.
The two of them looked at each other again, and their eyes were full of relief.
"Sit down, rest for a while, and resume later. ”
Chang Huan waved his hand at An Zheng, and then walked out of the room in a hurry. Maybe it's because they were too depressed just now, and the two of them also need to breathe a sigh of relief.
The girl named Sang Rou in front of her suddenly stood up and walked back, walked in front of An Zheng, and looked at An Zheng with big eyes: "Do you really think the best way is to kill the boss?"
An Zheng nodded: "I think...... Be. ”
Sang Rou asked again, "Why?"
She lowered her head and put her mouth close to An Zheng's ear: "Don't say the words loyal to the monarch and the country, I don't believe it." ”
An Zheng replied with a smile: "It's all death, kill a boss, one life for another, I don't feel so lost." ”
Sang Rou had an expression that she already knew you were thinking, and then turned around and walked back. After walking a few steps, she turned back again: "Remember my name, my name is Sang Rou, Sang Rou of Kou Pi Sang Rou." ”
