Royal Road

Yesterday, when he fell asleep at Haishi, Duan Qin got up from the couch at the beginning of Maochu. Without freshening up, he walked directly to the bookcase, lit the lamp, and started writing at the desk.

This is a habit that Duan Qin only developed after coming to the Liang Mansion. Every day before going to bed, summarize and organize the work of the day, make up for the omissions after getting up early, and then write down what you need today. Now that Liang's affairs are complicated and the manpower is extremely scarce, he naturally has to develop a habit to avoid missing important things.

While working hard to write a book, a servant woman opened the door and walked in. She was surprised: "Master Duan, have you got up so early?"

"Go get some cold food." Duan Qin directly ordered without raising his head.

The servant woman was very neat and didn't know how to work hard, so she put her early on the case, turned around and picked up the bed briskly.

Duan Qin also roughly listed the to-do list, grabbed a steamed cake, and checked the content while eating. This is the sweet bean cake that the lord specially ordered the kitchen to prepare. It is the crushed bean paste wrapped in the steamed cake, which is sweet and delicious, and extremely full. It is best to use some before eating.

After eating two steamed cakes and checking the manuscript, he took the tea next to him and drank it. He got up and walked to the copper basin prepared by the servant. After carefully cleaning his face and rinsing his mouth, he sat down and asked the other party to comb him. hair. This woman was also sent by the lord to take care of his daily life. I have to say that with such a person, I really don't have to worry about other things.

After taking care of it, I looked at the clepsydra, and it was already a quarter of the third day. Duan Qin did not delay any longer, and strode out the door.

Every day Maozheng is when the school starts. Although there were a lot of affairs in the Fuzhong, he did not put it aside, as long as he was at home, he would go to the school to give lectures. It takes half an hour to go to the study to deal with other matters. After all, this is about the future employment plan of the Liang Mansion and should not be ignored.

Quickly walked out of the inner courtyard, he walked towards the new school. Because of the increase in the number of students entering the school, the school has moved from the inner courtyard to the original barracks of the tribe. The place is spacious and closer to the farm, without disturbing the people in the palace, and is more suitable for giving lectures.

As soon as I stepped into the door, I heard a low voice: "Greetings to Mr.!"

"Mr. Early!" a large group of people shouted immediately.

Duan Qin's single meal. The aura of this question Ann almost caught up with the colonel to read it, if it hadn't been used to the volume of these rough men, I'm afraid it would have been frightened.

"Everyone is early too." Duan Qin stepped onto the podium, sat down before the case, and scanned the room.

There were two groups of people sitting in the audience. Half of them were children who had followed Zhou Kan's academic calculations before, and the other half were members of the military. In addition to those who learn to draw maps, there are eleven officers who are also going to school. However, this group of people will be divided into two groups, only five people will come every day, and the rest will have to conduct trilogy exercises. Only Yi Yan, very few arrived. However, once in a while, the discipline of the school will be surprisingly good, and even the distracted ones will disappear.

Looking at Yi Yan's grim face with no expression, Duan Qin said: "Today is still learning a thousand-character essay, let's start with recitation. Yi Yingzheng, can you please take these people to read it again?"

Yi Yan twisted his eyebrows, but didn't refuse, picked up the book in his hand and read it. Sure enough, this person's knowledge was better than everyone in the room, and he did not mispronounce a word. The text has only a thousand words, and it will be finished smoothly after a short time.

"Reading well." Duan Qin praised, "Recitation is the foundation, and we must carefully remember the meaning of the text. Turn to the third page, let's start learning yesterday."

The books in the school are all published in the Fuzhong, and everyone can use it. Duan Qin didn't stop, and started to speak on his own. Although many of the people in the audience are adults, they are not as knowledgeable as Mengtong, so he does not pretend to be difficult, so that everyone can understand.

But when it comes to learning, different people still have different reactions. Those children who learn to count are the most serious, and they can see the deep desire at a glance. The people in the army are a bit worse, those who study drawing are pretty diligent, and those generals are not satisfactory. But this is what it should be. As far as he knows, there are many generals in the army who are illiterate, not to mention these rough men who have just left the status of slavery.

But Yi Yan's performance is somewhat intriguing. In front of outsiders, his hostility to himself is not so obvious, he is very serious when he reads books, and he is really a bit smart and studious. Only occasionally, he does not look at himself like his colleagues or teachers, but a bit of scrutiny. It seems that he is not coming to school, but to monitor and explore himself. It really made Duan Qin a little bit dumbfounded.

Half an hour passed quickly. Closing the book, Duan Qin said, "Going back today, I have to memorize these two pages by memorization, and I will do a random check tomorrow."

The reactions of the people below were mixed, but Yi Yan obviously didn't take it to heart. Wei Wei nodded and saluted him, then walked outside the door. Duan Qin hurried up: "Yi Yingzheng, the changes to the military system set a few days ago already have a framework. I'm looking for the lord to discuss it in detail. I wonder if you are free, so let's go together."

Such discussions are always faster than separate discussions. As expected, Yi Yan stopped and said coldly, "I'm free."

His tone is much harder than when he was in school. But Duan Qin didn't care, and followed him to the main courtyard.

※

Seeing Duan Qin and Yi Yan walking into the study room together, Liang Feng smiled inconveniently: "But the military system is finalized?"

The two will come together, and there is nothing else to do.

"It is exactly this matter, the drafting is also requested by the lord to review it." Duan Qin respectfully handed over the paperwork made last night. This is the draft he compiled based on the discussions over the past few days, and it can be improved one by one after the lord has reviewed it.

Liang Feng took the scroll, read it, and nodded in a short while: "The auxiliary soldier is very good."

Different from the original all recruits are called auxiliary soldiers, after this restructuring, the auxiliary soldiers will be divided into two, and part of the reserve recruits will be promoted to full soldiers as long as they get three first ranks. This requirement is much harsher than before, and aims to control the number of soldiers. The other part was transferred to the army, dedicated to logistics, and the training volume was much smaller than that of the reserve. In this way, when the army is dispatched, it can reduce the recruitment of ordinary people. However, the treatment of the Xiang soldiers is much worse than that of the reserve. They are basically militiamen.

Then, looking down, Liang Feng frowned: "Should we still count as the first rank when the soldiers are promoted?"

"Only the first level can record the merits. If you don't record the merits at the first level, you will be biased." Duan Qin replied.

Yi Yan said: "During the battle, only one team can win the battle. If everyone only thinks about the rewards of military merit, it will easily mess up the military's mind."

This is also what Liang Feng is worried about. In a war, not everyone can cut off the enemy's head. There are many times when you have to cover your teammates or assist in attacks. If only the heads are counted, the merits of these people will inevitably be neglected. And there will be an endless stream of military officers gaining merit and fighting for the enemy's leader.

"Then you will be counted by the team," Duan Qin said, "Just like the previous two military exploits, they were all defeated by multiples and one's enemy, and it was considered a big victory. Only the big victory was replaced by the first level."

Yi Yan seemed to want to say something, and Liang Feng waved his hand: "It's also a way. Let's try to set the rules first. As for the breakdown of military merit awards, this is pretty good."

Previously, only the third-class merits were counted on the basis of promotion. Twenty third-class military merits can be exchanged for first-class merits. Doesn't it mean twenty big victories? This is too difficult, it is better to subdivide and give some more rewards. For example, several times the family can be exempted from military service, several times the child can be admitted to the classroom, several times can be retired after ten years of military service, etc. At the same time, these military exploits are also necessary conditions for promotion to official positions. In this way, everyone in nature will bravely kill the enemy.

"The military rank can also be determined." Turning to the next page, Liang Feng said again.

When coming out of battle, the status and status of the officers are often judged according to the clothes of the officers. But in this way, the enemy can easily find out where to fight. Therefore, Liang Feng suggested that the grass-roots officers below the team should be uniform as much as possible and wear identification signs so that they can be recognized. In this way, if a corps leader or a corporal leader is killed, the soldiers can quickly find a superior officer and reorganize the formation.

Liang Feng originally planned to make a badge like an epaulette, but found that it was difficult to recognize after wearing armour, so he changed it to an armband, distinguished by several bars of later generations, even if you don’t know the numbers, you can see that the bars are unrecognizable. Encryption is a lot simpler.

There will be many miscellaneous items that will be discussed one by one. However, Duan Qin gradually discovered that Yi Yan had a problem, as long as it was his own opinion, he would immediately find the loopholes. This kid's thinking is quicker than he thought, and there are some things that he can't refute. Such a discussion is quite efficient, but it is really unpleasant. I don't know if the other party is intentional or unintentional.

After finally finishing a dozen items of content, Liang Feng put down the scroll in his hand: "In this way, the military system will be roughly settled. Later, other chores in the mansion will be deployed again, thinking if you can find a reliable one. You can also recommend two posts to Liang’s mansion."

"There are indeed two old friends who are quite good, wait until I get the letter to try." Duan Qin replied immediately.

"It's so good!" Liang Feng glanced at the clepsydra. "It's noon, so leave your meal."

"Thank you, lord." The two replied.

Duan Qin still likes Liang's food. It's not the usual cooking method. Stir-fried dishes are used here to make the taste more fragrant and the taste is very outstanding, which makes people appetite. The lord is not picky in other aspects, but it takes a lot of effort to eat this way. Every time I accompany the lord to share meals, it is really gratifying.

Of course, it would be even better if there was no colleague who would be scorned from time to time.

A hearty meal is also thorny. After the meal was full, he sipped tea, Duan Qincai said: "If the lord doesn't give up, how about a hand-to-hand talk about a game? The last game, but it will be a long time to remember..."

Duan Qin is usually very self-disciplined and prefers to like Go. What is even more rare is to find that the master's chess path is completely different from his appearance. Playing against those gentleman and gentleman all year round, how could Duan Qin miss such a good opponent. So when I found an opportunity, I wanted to make an appointment.

Unexpectedly, Liang Feng hadn't spoken yet, and Yi Yan said coldly: "Why don't I accompany Duan's book to discuss a game?"

Unexpectedly, Yi Yan would answer the conversation. Duan Qin blinked: "Yi Ying is also good at Go?"

"Bo Yuan was taught by me personally, why don't you give it a try?" Liang Feng replied with interest.

Hearing this, Duan Qin also became interested: "Then it will disturb the game."

The battle was quickly opened, and the two played against each other in black and white. As soon as he got started, Duan Qin found that Yiyan's chess path was really similar to that of the lord, but did not have the lord's skills and layout, but like a tiger going down the mountain and going to sea. Under the frenzied bombing, how can there be room for leisure? Duan Qin was sweating profusely in a short while, not like playing chess, but like being beaten by someone.

In less than half a moment, the face of the chess was in a mess, and Duan Qin had to throw in his ball to admit defeat: "Yi Ying is a master of chess, and a certain himself is inferior."

There is still no expression on Yi Yan's face: "Where, if Duan Zhuan wants to play chess, I will accompany him at any time."

This is really a respect for Bumin. He loves to play chess, but not to fight, so let's talk to the lord in the future. After awkwardly saying yes, Duan Qin got up and resigned.

Yi Yan also wanted to leave. Who expected Liang Feng to stop him behind his back: "Bo Yuan, don't you like Duan's master book?"

Liang Feng is not a blind man. Yiyan's performance in the past few days is obvious enough. Today's chess approach is even more unreasonable. It seems like playing chess, it is like venting anger.

Yi Yan became silent immediately, and after a while, he said, "Duan is the master of the book, and he can also worry about the master. How can his subordinates be unhappy?"

There are two big characters "not happy" written on your face. Liang Feng laughed and laughed, shook his head and said: "Which way do you eat? He can share my worries, can't you? Don't worry, no one can take your place."

Yi Yan couldn't understand what Fei Vinegar meant, but he heard the second half of the sentence clearly. He also heard the lord say this, but there is really a guy who accompanies the lord every day, can talk to him all the time, talk and have fun, and he is almost sleeping, but it makes Yi Yan's heart depressed so much. He himself has to practice, and he doesn't have so much time to accompany the lord!

Seeing that the kid was still silent, Liang Feng turned his head and said, "Lv Zhu, take Lu Xingqi."

Green bamboo answered, and Liang Feng smiled and said to Yi Yan: "There may be many who can talk with me. But there are not many who can play land chess with me. How about, do you want to accompany me in the next game?"

Not everything can be said to others. Duan Qin is really good, and he has won his trust. But after all, he was a very keen ancient man who knew the rules of feudal society. If it is too open in front of him, it will inevitably be suspicious. But Yi Yan is different. As a Jie, he also doesn't belong to this mature society, but an ignorant outsider. So no one can let him indulge himself like Yi Yan. Liang Feng will not mention this to anyone. But he never mind, let Yi Yan know this. Because he knows that his trust is also extremely important to this Jie man young man.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Yi Yan's expression immediately changed, as if the whole person had been lit up. Although still pursing his mouth in silence, his hand moved very fast, and he threw the Go board aside.

Liang Feng couldn't help but smiled: "If you lose this time, you can no longer be cold-eyed towards Siruo."

"Subordinates will never lose!" Yi Yan replied immediately.

"You kid." Liang Feng said.

Not much to say, the two once again opened up the battle. The wooden chess pieces hit the board with a crisp sound.
