131. Selection of martial artists
Zhang Jun said: "Long live no mercy, kill this person quickly, I am the great Song Junwei." ”
Yu Yunwen also said: "Long live, what General Zhang said is reasonable, such pus generals should be beheaded to show the law, and then the ministers or General Zhang will take Geng Jing to the north, let General Geng temporarily take the post of Lin Daquan, send troops to quell the chaos, first ensure internal security, and then discuss foreign policies." ”
The two generals Zhang and Yu gave up, and the other generals were angry that Lin Daquan had no ability to lead the troops, so they went out to fight together.
Zhao Tuan was indeed furious, and immediately ordered: "Push out the criminal minister Lin Daquan and behead him!"
Lin Daquan changed color miserably, but he didn't expect to come to rescue the soldiers, but he gave away his life, not to mention that he didn't move a single soldier. At this time, he was so frightened that he was panting coldly, dizzy, his mouth was empty, he was paralyzed on the ground, and he couldn't say a word.
The guards rushed forward, pulled out like dead pigs, and tied up to the court to wait for the cannon to be fired.
After three cannon shots, the knife and axe hand had already beheaded Lin Daquan and played Zhao Tuan.
Zhao Tuan frowned and sighed, "Got it." ”
Yu Yunwen said: "Long live, my country has been suffering from famine for many years, and the envoys of the Jin State are not here to urge the New Year's coins, but have other plans, they saw that my Great Song Dynasty was in turmoil, and they took this opportunity to want the soldiers to go south, so they said that other countries invaded me." In the minister's humble opinion, it is better to send an envoy to Xiliao to inquire about the news, or say that the Jin State intends to unite with our state to destroy it, so that they can also contain the Jin State while taking precautions, so that the Jin State will not dare to invade the south for a while. After that, long live the will again, recruit martial artists all over the world, contribute to the imperial court, and temporarily ban Wenju people from entering the test for three years. In this way, it can reduce the number of martial artists who mistakenly enter the ranks of the anti-people, and moreover, we and other Weichen are old, and in the future, the Jiangshan Society of the Great Song Dynasty still needs the next generation of young descendants to defend it. Wei Chen's words, I don't know what to do?"
Zhao Tuan didn't have time to answer, and Han Yanxuan said beside him: "Long live, I'm afraid of what General Yu said...... I'm afraid ......"
Zhao Tuan said: "Han Aiqing doesn't have to hide it, just announce it in person." ”
Han Yan said: "General Yu said that he will plan the plan, I am afraid that he can only relieve his worries for a while, if Xiliao and other countries send envoys to the Jin country to investigate in detail, or to expose what we have said, wouldn't this be a cocoon and self-restraint? Nowadays, if we are not in harmony with the Jin country, it will definitely invade us, and then we will suffer internal and external chaos, and the sea will flow cross. This year's coin, you might as well strangle your waist, grit your teeth and squeeze some out, no matter how much, as long as you can avoid the disaster of war and chaos, this is also a long live emperor's grace. As the saying goes: endure it, calm the waves, let it go, the sea and the sky. This is the death of the tongue and the teeth. ”
Xiaozong didn't have time to answer, but when he saw Zhang Jun and Wu Luan, the two veterans, he said: "Long live don't shake your heart, what General Yu said is very true." This time, the Jin people want to take the five states of Hai, Si, Tang, Deng, and Shang first, and if they pay tribute commensurate with their uncles and nephews, the Jin people will get more inches. ”
Zhao Tuan said again: "Well said!" looked at Han Yanxuan and said, "What else do you have to say?"
Han Yanxuan thought to himself that he was currently lonely and unreliable, and if he obstructed them again, it would inevitably make everyone suspect that he was a traitor, which would not be good. So he smiled and said: "Since the three old generals have arranged it like this, Weichen has nothing else to say." ”
Zhao Tuan pondered for a while, and then issued an edict: "The ministers have nothing else to say, according to the opinion of the three Aiqing, send Fan Chengda, a scholar of the Senior Administration Palace, to envoy to Xiliao, and it is scheduled to be the fifth day of the next month, and General Yu and Han Yuanji will be responsible for the selection of Wusheng and other matters, so that Han Yuanji can redeem himself and do everything well." After speaking, he didn't wait for Han Yuanji to go to the palace to thank him, and then he retired from the court.
Yu Yunwen, Zhang Jun and Wu Ling were all overjoyed, and although Han Tuoxuan was unhappy, he did not dare to go against the crowd alone. Afterwards, Zhao Tuan reverted this item to the Emperor Zhao Gou, and then issued a notice to Zhang in various states and counties, and selected martial artists to enter Beijing without questions.
In the blink of an eye, the examination period is approaching, and there are four examination rooms, and the chief examiners are Yu Yunwen and Han Yuanji. Those who cheated or disturbed the test site were immediately killed, and thousands of Imperial Guards were sent to patrol the surrounding areas.
This proclamation of the imperial court has been a sensation since it was posted everywhere. Some Jianghu wanderers, mediocre boxers and all want to take this opportunity to get ahead, so that they can mix with an official to do it, wearing a gold helmet and silver armor, it is also majestic, even if they really go to march and fight, if they win, they will be high-ranking officials and heroes, and if they are defeated, they will flee incognito, and the gold and silver armor on their bodies can be smashed as a lot of silver to dress and make a living, and play money and prostitutes. It is the idea that all Wu Yong has.
Three or two days before the test, there were three or four thousand people, and the whole Lin'an City was very lively. The real one is: will be knights of the five lakes and gather heroes from all over the world. Heroes and bears, idiots and pus, make the city flooded, mixed with fish and dragons.
Most people want to take this opportunity to be selected and have a good reputation of honoring their ancestors, but as for whether to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions in the future, they have not considered it carefully for the time being. The other part of the people are hungry and cold, and they have no way out, and they want to try their luck, so they only want to be warm and full of food in the future, and they do not want anything else; some people come to watch the lively scenery and travel to the scenery; there are even some people who do not learn and have no skills and want to get an official cloth, and they can run rampant in the countryside in the future, so after arriving in Beijing, they first throw themselves everywhere and spend money to find a relationship. Only a very small number of people want to take the opportunity to serve the country in the army and expel foreign criminals.
In recent days, the entire city of Hangzhou has been shouting with horses, swords and swords. In the streets and alleys, mules and horses are everywhere. It was early autumn, the heat was still there, and everywhere it was stinky. Some restaurants, restaurants, teahouses and inns were sat by some reckless people with broken tables and chairs, dishes and bowls were broken, and utensils and utensils were thrown away if they were not destroyed. Some petty people come to fish in troubled waters, day and night, and it is not uncommon for them to commit adultery and criminal acts, and they are endless. For a time, the embroidered boudoir was so frightened that the doors and windows were bolted to death, and she didn't dare to sleep at night. Many beautiful scenery of West Lake will be full of remnants of flowers, a miserable green and red, even the grass and willows planted on the side of the grass are also gnawed by the horses. If it is back to the year of famine and locust plague, the people in the city are all bitter and beat their chests.
Finally, the trial period is approaching, and more than 2,000 people have increased in the past few days, and I don't know what strange skills each one can really have. But when the time passed, thousands of people were happy and bombed, and if the Qiantang River was generally involved in the school martial arts field at high tide, it would be more than an hour before it gradually settled down.
The length and width of the school martial arts field are more than hundreds of zhang, and each test field is a group of 100 people, and the top five are selected from each group, and then formed into a group to test. After removing the turnips, only a few dozen people were selected. From the dozens of people selected, the top eight were selected, and in addition to the test of horseback archery and eighteen kinds of martial arts, a written test was also conducted, that is, to test some military tactics and so on.
The examiners of each field saw that there were already a lot of martial arts students at this time, so they also took their positions step by step, and first announced the rules of the competition and the laws of the various articles of the examination room.
Some people only feel that there are no more than 100 people with the test, and this time there are many people who come to the test, at least five or six thousand, and the chance of being selected is slim, and they can't help but be discouraged and resentful, and secretly scold their mother. There are also many children of officials and wealthy families who have heard that the laws for entering the examination are strict, and those who engage in favoritism and malpractice and disturb the examination room will be killed, and they can't help but regret it. They all want to be officials, but they shouldn't throw some silver out indiscriminately. He also said: "This may be tricky, as long as the silver is spent, there is no fart sound, how can there be a reason in the world not to recognize the silver?"
Half an hour later, the three cannon shots were over, and the first test on the first day was archery. I saw that the first group was divided into four examination rooms, and after reporting their names and counties of residence, each person had ten feathered arrows, and the arrow target was 100 feet away, and the strength of each person and the class number of the bow and crossbow, as well as the distance of the arrow target and the number of rings in the target were used to evaluate the advantages and disadvantages.
There are a lot of people who watch the excitement, and look at the archery is easier and safer than the competition, and they all have registered with the registration, and they want arrows to shoot it, and they laughed, which was not in vain.
As a result, the archery test was dispersed until the end of the unitary hour, and only more than 800 people passed the archery. On the second day, they rode horses and shot arrows, and five or six hundred of the more than eight hundred people were eliminated. From the third day, it was the most lively, testing martial arts and eighteen blades. Anyone who participates in the test can participate. The armory racks in the four examination rooms are filled with various blades and some hidden weapons, as well as stone locks, stone drums and other force testing tools of different weights.
As the saying goes, as soon as an expert makes a move, he knows if there is one. Some people who want to get away with it and don't know the shame can see at a glance whether they are indiscriminate people who are full of money, and as long as they pick up the blade and pull it slightly, the examiner will know the details, and they will immediately retreat from the field if they are not tied to that faction at all.
For two whole days, the school was full of ugliness and confusion, and finally a total of more than 600 qualified people were screened, and the rest were screened out.
At present, the Song Dynasty is trying to prepare for the Jin Kingdom, although there are many people who have been eliminated, but when it is the time to employ people, it is not too harsh on other conditions, as long as those who are willing to join the army, there is no limit to the amount. Those who have not been selected and who want to serve the country are happy, and those who are hungry and cold and have no way out are also willing. Those rich children were proud when they saw the winners, and they all sneered in their hearts: "No matter how high your mother's ability is, if you don't have any white flowers, it will be for nothing." Don't look at what you are, maybe you will belong to Lao Tzu in the future. Some thought: "This kid's martial arts are not low, let him follow my account in the future." ”
The more these people looked at the winners, the more unpleasant they became, and they all secretly laughed and insulted, and spat on the ground. I don't pay attention to vomiting on others.
The man said angrily: "You kid doesn't have good tricks or is blind with dog eyes, where did you throw it?"
This person apologized for his own losses, but when he heard him hurt people, he was also angry at the moment, and scolded: "Lao Tzu spit on the ground, hindering your?"
The man was even more angry and scolded: "You kid has a kind, go to the field to practice, don't be so scared that you will drown and scatter everywhere here!"
The man blushed and scolded: "Lao Tzu can sprinkle wherever he likes, blame you for standing here and getting in the way! You have a kind, why don't you go to the field to practice!"
When the man heard this, he laughed: "Since you admit that you love to scatter wherever you want, I will no longer quarrel with you with my own identity." ”
This man realized that he had just said a wrong thing, and he was taken advantage of, and he was immediately ashamed, pulled out his blade from his body, and scolded: "Your mother has a kind of going out to fight to the death!"
Not to be outdone, the man said: "There is a kind of fight here, if you go out to fight, your son is afraid of death." As he spoke, he pulled the knife out of his body. The rest saw that they wanted to fight, and they watched the excitement from the sidelines, wishing that these two people could fight to the death off the field, although they were both playing in the market, but they were more exciting than on the field, and the field was only a drill, and the field was a real knife and a real gun. Even if you don't get killed or wounded, being caught by officers and soldiers and beheading to demonstrate is also a wonderful thing. When someone came with the two accomplices, he hurriedly stepped forward to persuade him and put an end to the fight.
