Yang Zhao moved the set of later generations of shops to here.

Outside the private school, gongs and drums were beaten, which was not lively, and soon attracted a large number of people to come and watch.

The people knew that this private school was still established by the general, and it was only preferential for the common people, and the exemption of various fees was obviously prepared for the people, and their enthusiasm suddenly rose.

In this era, being able to read and write is a status symbol.

Repeatedly sure that Mengxue is really so favorable, many people led their children to sign up, Guan Ning and Bing Yuan, with a group of students, were busy recording by the school gate.

However, the first batch of students is limited in number, and it is not possible to receive as many as they come.

In addition, for students, they must also pass the assessment to enroll, the current scale is still small, can not do comprehensive coverage, only those who can read, those who do not want to read, or have no talent for reading, will be eliminated.

Those who are over the age of six, under the age of twelve, below or above, are not suitable for school.

"The private learning of the master, the various systems, and the way of teaching are all unprecedented to us."

Xun You looked at the parents who signed up, and said: "It seems that there are a lot of restrictions, there are many rules, and there are still assessments. ”

Hua Xin echoed: "The lord is for the people of the world, and popularizing reading and literacy among ordinary people, maybe this is a unique initiative." ”

They still don't know that there is also the matter of the election of officials in the imperial examination.

If you had known, you might have objected to this kind of learning.

Yang Zhao would not be so iron-headed, and rashly proposed the imperial examination system at this time, sighing: "Because I was born poor, I know how luxurious it is to read and write." ”

"The lord does not forget his original intention!"

Zheng Xuan was very impressed.

Yang Zhao shook his head and said, "You have time, you can take care of my Mengxue, now that the opening is almost underway, let's go back to work!" ”

"Yes!"

The crowd responded.

Yang Zhao didn't go to the government office to make sure that Mengxue was okay, so he went out of the city to the factory next to the camp, where weapons were made.

"Lord!"

Seeing his arrival, the craftsmen inside greeted him one after another.

The craftsmen who have been summoned now, except for some who went to Judian Lake to build ships, the rest are basically here.

There are more than 500 people!

Their role is to manufacture weapons in batches, such as explosives, bed crossbows, strong crossbows, etc., and for the speed and efficiency of manufacturing, Yang Zhao also brought assembly line production.

The wages of craftsmen who can enter the factory are also extremely high.

Working here for a month is more than working outside for three months, and there are many people who want to come to work, but each one has to go through a shadow political review to find out the innocence of the family background and come in without any problems.

"Here's a few people, I need to make some new weapons."

Yang Zhao waved his hand.

The head of the artisans here, called Ding Lin, has a certain status in the factory and is loyal.

Hearing Yang Zhao's words, he brought three craftsmen and said respectfully: "Lord! ”

After entering the factory work, their living standards have improved in a straight line, and Ding Lin and others respect Yang Zhao very much, and it is not an exaggeration to regard them as reborn parents.

"I need to make a new weapon."

"It's called a horse lance, you should have heard of it, right?"

Yang Zhao looked at Ding Lin and the others.

The horse lance first appeared in the Han Dynasty, but arose in the Sui and Tang dynasties, according to the books of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the lance, the spear Changzhang eight called the lance.

"You know, what does the lord have for the horse lance?"

Ding Lin nodded.

Yang Zhao took out a drawing from his arms, he didn't know what the lance of this era looked like, but he drew it in his memory, and said: "The lance needs to have eight sides, the lance blade must have an armor-breaking edge, the front is about two feet long, and the wooden pole is temporarily used with ordinary guns, and the first batch will make three thousand, and I will use it in the cavalry at that time." ”

The rise of the horse lance is closely related to the cavalry.

During the Sui and Tang dynasties, cavalry was the decisive force in the struggle for world domination.

In the north at this time, it is almost the same, who can have a strong cavalry, in the battle for hegemony, can occupy an absolute advantage, but at this time the war horse is not cheap, especially with the horse lance with the armor and cavalry.

That is, heavy cavalry.

These endurance requirements for war horses will be relatively strong.

"In addition, I have to make a batch of armor!"

"You should also know what the armor is, also create three thousand copies, and you also need a style that can be worn by the war horse, put it here after you finish building, and I will use it later."

Yang Zhao prepares to form a heavy cavalry.

It is a kind of armor that has a relatively strong ability to defend against arrows, the cost is lower than that of other armors, and the weight is lighter, and it is relatively better than other armors when used on war horses and knights.

His armor, or according to the later Tang and Song Dynasty style, the drawings drawn were also handed over to Ding Lin.

Next, to fight in the north, especially the Xiongnu, Guanzhong and the northwest and other places, cavalry combat is very necessary, heavy cavalry is born, will definitely bring amazement to this era.

Armor-piercing arrows are generally heavier arrows.

The armor and cavalry equipment was flourishing during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and it still does not exist much, and no one uses armor-piercing arrows, and the heavy cavalry still has a natural advantage.

"Yes!"

Ding Lin and them, although they think it will be strange to wear armor even on war horses, but they can just obey orders and will not ask too much.

After giving these orders, Yang Zhao left the factory, inspected the camp, and went back to find someone to contact Zhen Yan to buy another horse.

"Lord!"

Zhen Yan hasn't started to contact yet, but Lu Zhu came to Linzi first.

Yang Zhao felt that looking for Elk Zhu was similar, so he thought for a while and asked, "Does Zizhong have any channels for selling horses?" I want 5,000 war horses, but the war horses I need are very demanding, and I don't care if the speed of the run is fast or not, but the endurance must be good, the durability is strong, and the ability to carry weight for long distances. ”

"Why does the lord want such a horse?"

Lu Zhu was curious, thought for a moment and said: "It seems that in the south of Qianghu, there is this kind of war horse, which is taller and has a strong load, which meets the requirements of the lord." ”

Yang Zhao said: "I want to reorganize a team of cavalry, can you buy back this batch of war horses?" Guanzhong, now controlled by Ma Teng and others, can we lead a large number of war horses out of the customs? ”

To the south of Qianghu, Qinghai and other places are located.

The war horses over there are indeed very strong.

For example, the river meandering horse is the best war horse with the best endurance and weight.

The most suitable for use as a military horse is the Three Hippos.

Yang Zhao's Xuanjia elite horse, the war horse has been changed several times, and he has already gotten the three hippos on the grassland through Zhen Yan's channel.

"It should be!"

Lu Zhu was not sure, hesitated to the end, took Yang Zhao to his mansion in Linzi, and spread out a map of their business.
