Although Wei Xuan shouted in his heart that he had done a good job, he looked at Tong Yuan with a sincere face on the surface. This is about to enter the troubled times, this is the king of guns, a bull with an average martial arts ceiling, even if he learns a little fur, his force can't catch up with Zhao Yun, at least he can be more powerful than ordinary bandits and robbers. And it can still be related to the two Senior Brother Zhang and Zhao Yun. In the future, if you can't get along in Hedong, you can also go to a few brothers.

Being looked at by Wei Xuan's sincere gaze, Tong Yuan hesitated for a while and then said: "Master Xuan, forget about apprenticeship, the grass people will bother in the house for a few more days, and if you are free, you can see how much you can learn and see how much you can create." ”

Hearing this, Zuo Ci and Wei Su nodded at the same time. Tong Yuan didn't directly let Wei Xuan's apprentice obviously worry about Wei Su, on the way to come, he heard Zuo Ci talk about Wei Su, and this Wei Xuan Gongzi is a disciple of the great Confucian Zheng Xuan, and soon he will be the son-in-law of the great Confucian Cai Yong, and he may be ranked among the three princes in the future.

Although the problem of apprenticeship was temporarily solved, Wei Su did not let Wei Xuan go. He glanced at the second son, who seemed to be completely better all of a sudden, and said lightly: "Follow me." ”

Wei Xuan shrunk his neck, bowed to Tong Yuan and Zuo Ci, and followed behind Wei Su. Out of Wei Xuan's small courtyard, a short walk forward is where Wei Su, the head of the Wei Mansion, and his wife and concubine are. The buildings along the way once again dazzled Wei Xuan's eyes, and the sheer size of the Wei Mansion also made Wei Xuan staggered. A cursory glance at this is more than the Forbidden City he visited in later generations. The only difference is that the main buildings of each courtyard are not as majestic as the palace hall, and the interior and exterior decorations cannot be encroached upon.

Wei Su came to the study all the way and then knelt in front of the only desk with a straight face, Wei Xuan knew that this was his father who was going to give him a lecture, so he hurriedly took two steps forward and poured a cup of hot water for Wei Su, and then stood respectfully next to him, but he didn't wait for Wei Su to speak, and said first: "Adult, the child is not a whim, and he wants to learn from a teacher." Although there are various signs that those in the Luoyang Palace are going to target adults, the child is worried that there are other people behind this, and if Mr. Tong is in the mansion for a day, the adults will be safer.

In addition, the child mainly wants to keep the child teacher for Tong'er. ”

Wei Suhu glanced at his son suspiciously, and found that Wei Xuan at this moment was extremely normal, even more mature than before the assassination, so he took a sip of water from the cup and waited for Wei Xuan's next words.

"Although the Yellow Turban Rebellion has been pacified, the situation in the court has not been improved, and the remnants of the Yellow Turban Party in various places are ready to resurge at any time. Although my Wei family cultivates and reads heirlooms, but now in troubled times, someone needs to practice martial arts and know soldiers, not to be able to hold a million heroes, at least to be able to fight back when the thieves invade my Wei family.

Tong'er has been good at martial arts since he was a child, and he has also learned from many knights for a while, and now that the Tong master has come to Anyi, he can let him teach me first, and by the way, let the guards and some strong slaves in the house also learn some skills.

When Tong'er comes back, he will either ask Master Tong to stay in the house or let Tong'er follow him to study for a few years, and when he has learned something, he will come home to lead a group of guards, not to mention a few assassins, even if the yellow turban rises again, the Wei family will have a certain amount of self-preservation. Even if Tong'er can't learn the true meaning of Mr. Tong, at least he can explain more of the heroes of the rivers and lakes, and can recruit some capable guests for my Wei family. ”

Wei Su wanted to refute it, but found that Wei Xuan didn't seem to have any problem with what he said, the matter of the glorious lintel could be handed over to the eldest son Wei Qi and the second Wei Xuan, and even the fourth Wei He was more diligent and studious, smarter than his brother Wei Tong, but this third Wei Tong was spoiled by his wife since he was a child, and he would not have much success if he had to be forced to study literature.

Of course, the most important thing is that Wei Xuan's thinking is so clear, obviously it is back to normal, in fact, Wei Su also thought about a problem during the time he came to the study, in case Zi Wei Xuan's soul loss is not good, let him follow Tong Yuan and Zuo Ci is not a choice. One can save lives and the other can teach the martial arts of physical fitness, which is better than staying at home and being muddy. It's just that I didn't expect Wei Xuan to go so far because of Tong Yuan.

Seeing that his father did not object, Wei Xuan struck while the iron was hot: "My lord, although there are guards in the mansion, this time Wang Yue's attack has also exposed a lot of problems, first of all, the guards' training is not enough, so that dozens of assassins can't stop hundreds of people in the mansion." Second, there is no strict night patrol and duty warning system, as for Wang Yue and others, they can easily enter the house and directly find their father's location. The child even suspected that someone in the house was ventilating the news for those at this moment.

The child thought that it would be better to take this opportunity to recruit guests in the county to enrich the escort team, and then appoint someone to train them, and implement a system of day and night patrols on both the mansion and the salt pond. ”

Wei Su looked up at Wei Xuan again, can be a captain, although the Eastern Han Dynasty captain generally has no real power, but nominally the captain is still in charge of soldiers and horses, naturally involved in military affairs, it is rare that his second son was immersed in the classics of history in the past, this is the first time Wei Su found that his second son actually knew some military affairs.

Wei Su was a little excited in his heart, he and his wife had four children in front of three daughters, although the daughters are now promised a good family, but the Wei family still has to rely on the inheritance of the son, at the age of thirty-two, he gave birth to the eldest son Wei Xuan, and at the age of forty, he got the second son Wei Xuan, and then got the third son Wei Tong, married a concubine and gave birth to a son and a daughter. When the eldest son was born, he was only a county magistrate, and when the second son was born, he was already the prime minister of Pengcheng, and he also had the opportunity to invite famous people to teach, so the second son's studies have always been better.

This time, because of the assassination incident, Wei Su was naturally happy to discover the second son's talent in this area, so he continued to ask: "Then what scale should be appropriate?" And how to practice as well? ”

Wei Xuan pretended to ponder for a while and replied: "The child has occasionally seen some military books in the past, and he will sort out a drill code in his spare time, and the effect will definitely be good." As for the scale, the child thought that the size of the caravan could be tentatively set at 100 people, and in the future it would be expanded as needed, and the salt pond, the mansion, and the manor would each need about 200. The drills on the mansion side also need to be carried out in the manor outside the city. ”

Wei Su was first curious about what kind of drill the Wei Xuan Society would sort out, but when he heard Wei Xuan say that he would expand the number of guards to seven hundred, Zhou frowned.

Wei Xuanxin said Dad, don't say 700 people, if you have money and food to feed you, it won't be too many to get 7,000 people. You don't know that the Bai Bo Army is about to rebel, and you don't know that Dong Zhuo is about to enter Beijing, you don't know that the world is about to be in chaos, and a big family like the Wei family has a salt pond in the era when the heroes are competing for the deer, how can they do it without enough escort forces. But Wei Su frowned, he must have been worried about the consumption of money and food.

So Wei Xuan was silent again for a while and then said: "According to the practice of our dynasty and the current price of goods in Hedong, each soldier consumes one stone and eight per month, which is four thousand two hundred and twenty per year; Each soldier consumes two litres of salt per month, which is one hundred and fifty per year.

Each soldier's clothing is 3,300 dollars per year.

The annual living expenses of each soldier are about seven or eight thousand yuan, and the guards of our guard family cannot lose to ordinary soldiers, so the cost is about five million yuan.

Another one-time equipment, such as 100 steel knives, each 12,000

Fifty steel-refining swords, each eight or nine thousand dollars

Military swords are seven or eight hundred dollars each

Military knives are six or seven hundred dollars each

The bow was five or six hundred dollars each

The crossbows cost about 10,000 yuan each

Bows and arrows are ten dollars each

A crossbow arrow is nine coins

Seven or eight thousand dollars per set of armor. Among the 700 people, 100 people were selected for the elite with refined steel swords and armor, about 1,800,000 yuan, and 200 archers were 50,000 yuan for bows and arrows, and about 500,000 yuan. The rest are equipped with sabers for about 300,000 dollars. Therefore, the one-time equipment requires 2.6 million yuan. ”

Wei Xuan didn't care about it, the corners of Wei Su's mouth kept twitching, and he took a breath to say his plan. To be honest, if he hadn't seen Wei Su's strange expression all the time, Wei Xuan would have planned to equip everyone with leather armor and then train a hundred cavalry!

Seeing that Wei Xuan finally stopped, Wei Su's old face was slightly flushed and then looked at the second son with a smile, the old man's mood at the moment was complicated, on the one hand, he thought that the second son was not a family and didn't know that money was expensive and oil and salt were expensive, and he opened his mouth to ask for eight or nine million dollars to form an escort team. However, Wei Xuan's expenses for raising soldiers in the imperial court, as well as some weapons, knives, armor and food, were like a treasure, which made Wei Su feel very relieved!

The Wei family is really a successor, you must know that Wei Qing, the ancestor of the Wei family, is a real general, and God finally didn't take away his smart second son. Not only that, but it also shows some talents that are difficult to learn from books. You must know that even if you are a Taishou in these specific military affairs, you may not be able to understand Wei Xuan so well.

Wei Xuan, of course, this is well thought out, as a fan of the Three Kingdoms, although he is not particularly interested in this period of history, he still knows some fur, such as the thirty-six counties of Kyushu since the Qin and Han dynasties, although many have been constantly changing and even added and abandoned, but most of them are still there. For example, the approximate population and approximate prices of this era are still a bit impressive.

Of course, Wei Xuan is so eager to express himself for a purpose, Wei Su is the contemporary head of the Wei family, but the next generation of the Wei family, Wei Xuan, has a brother of the same birth, who is already the commander of Wenxi County, this is the second governor, and Jesselai has the opportunity to enter Beijing and even serve as a county guard. There are also two equally excellent brothers. There are countless outstanding young people from the side brothers.

If you want to do something in the coming troubled times, it is very necessary to gain a certain say in the Wei family as soon as possible. People should not be allowed to judge themselves by their age. Looking at his father Wei Su's expression now, Wei Xuan knew that part of his purpose had been achieved.

Wei Su pondered for a while, suddenly raised his head and looked at Wei Xuan and asked, "Zhongdao, you tell you the truth to your father, you have to train so many guards and equip them, do you want to target those people in Luoyang?" ”

Wei Xuan nodded and shook his head and said, "My lord, it's not enough to target those Wo Weijia people in Luoyang. However, the child also figured out that whether it is the study of the saints or the laws of the Great Han, they are all aimed at ordinary people. There are some people who you will be able to teach the law to him is useless, and you still have to be hard with your fists when necessary! ”

Wei Su looked at Wei Xuan in surprise and hesitated for a while and asked, "For example, ......"

"For example, those who covet the status and wealth of the Wei family, such as those who are jealous of the prestige of the lords......"
