About half a month later, Li Shimin issued another imperial edict, which was about the formal establishment of the military academy, and the emperor served as the highest honorary mountain chief, and the actual person in charge was Jing Wen as the priest. Jing Wen's identity as a member of the Ministry of Rites was not transferred to the Ministry of War, and he was promoted to the Ministry of War. The doctor was a fifth-rank official position, and this only represented Jing Wen's official title. Because the priest in the military academy was a position of dispatch, not a long-term position. Therefore, Jing Wen's actual position was also a doctor of the Ministry of War, representing the fifth-rank official position.

"Zhao Dongyang, Zhou Qiang, Li Huawen, you were transferred from the avenge army and will hold positions in the military academy. Now, we must first recruit students. Our military academy is now recruiting students from the civilian and grassroots level. The middle and senior management also needs to form a further training class to let those middle and high-level officers of the army come to take turns to further study, and then arrange the military positions of the new army in the future. We mainly recruit students from the civilian and grassroots level of the army. Next, we will publish the news of the admissions to the whole world!" Jing Wen said.

"Yes!" everyone said.

The list of military academy recruitment was quickly passed to various places through fast horses, and then people from all over the country saw it. Everyone was very curious about the recruitment of this military academy, because in the past they only heard that they would recruit Confucian students, but now they still have to recruit officers as students. This is really strange. This news has been recorded in their hearts by many people.

In Longmen County, Shanxi, a woman of seventeen or eighteen years old saw the relevant news and took the initiative to return home.

"Husband, have you heard of it? Now the court is going to open a military academy to recruit people who are interested in joining the army to study. After they come out, they will be the disciples of the emperor, all of whom are officers!" said the woman.

His husband is a young man of sixteen or seventeen years old who is farming in the farmland. When he heard the news, he began to think about it.

"I, Xue Li, are descendants of a famous family. Unfortunately, my family has fallen into ruin. Now I can only work for farming. Should I really live my life with the loess and my back on the sky like this?" Xue Li thought.

His wife took the initiative to say: "Husband, now the court is employed, otherwise this list would not have been published to let everyone join the army. Moreover, this military academy was taught by the emperor himself, so he will be the emperor's disciples from now on. Do you still have to worry about the future? Husband, have you always wanted to revive your family business and revitalize your family? Now there is a good opportunity. Husband must seize it!"

Xue Li began to think for a while and asked, "What if I go, but what should I do at home?"

"Husband, I have me in my family, don't worry!" Xue Li's wife said.

"My wife, I'm ready to go to Chang'an to apply for the expedition. However, I'll ask you at home. In the future, I will come and pick you up and share your glory and wealth!" Xue Li said.

The same news was also passed to the local area, and in the Zhechong Mansion, which belongs to the Right Guard, everyone was also talking about it.

"Have you heard that? The imperial court is now going to open a military academy. From now on, we all come out of the army. We ordinary soldiers can register and then we will be recommended by our respective Zhechong Mansions."

"Really? But it seems that only ordinary soldiers can register, and officials of grades cannot go. Military officers of grades must wait for the court's arrangements."

And a team in their teens was hearing the news and began to mutter: "I am already a ninth-grade team leader, and I'm afraid I can't sign up."

"Gao Kan, there are many discussions below. I want to see who we recommend to Zhechong Mansion to register!" another team was saying.

"Are you going?" the team named Gao Kan asked.

Another team was saying, "I won't go! Because once you sign up, you'll be an ordinary soldier. Moreover, you'll have to study there for several years, and after you get out, you'll be just a ninth rank. After being busy for several years, it's not enough to be a ninth rank. It's better to be a ninth rank team here just now!"

"The view of the fool!" Gao Kan thought to himself.

Gao Kan could clearly see that this military academy was probably the main source of officers in the future. The military academy had an emperor personally taught the lecture. Although the emperor was probably just a name, it was enough to make them become the disciples of the emperor. In the future, the identity of the disciples of the emperor would definitely be promoted first. Moreover, Gao Kan also knew that a new army would probably be formed in the future, and this military academy was probably to cultivate talents for the new army. As for these old troops, they might have to be gradually laid off. Gao Kan was still young, unlike following a broken ship without a future, so he wanted to seek a better future. This military academy allowed him to discover an opportunity.

"I will resign tomorrow and go to the military academy as a soldier!" Gao Kan said.

"Gao Kan, why did you give up your official position and become a soldier? In this way, you will regret it for the rest of your life!" someone immediately persuaded.

"I will regret it for the rest of my life if I don't go!" Gao Kan said.

In the Hongwenguan in the palace, a twelve-year-old boy also heard the news from the eunuch's ears.

"Hmph, I won't study anymore! Ban Dingyuan also joined the army and achieved great achievements from then on. Today, I, Pei Xingjian, will also imitate Ban Dingyuan and go to the military academy so that I can kill the enemy and make achievements in the future!" Pei Xingjian said.

But the people next to him immediately advised him: "Brother Pei, this is the Hongwenguan, and it is not easy for others to come in. Only the descendants of heroes can come in. Moreover, with the guidance of great Confucianism, the future is unlimited. Do you want to go to a military academy?"

But Pei Xingjian said: "When studying here, you will have to take the imperial examinations and enter the official career in the future, and you will have to face countless students in the world. Moreover, if you become a civil servant, you will have to be qualified for your seniority to be promoted. Instead of living through your seniority to earn your seniority, it is better to gain fame on the battlefield with one sword and one shot. Now, the world is going to form a new army and formally employ people. Therefore, I will go to the military academy and don't waste time here!"

Unfortunately, the Hongwenguan, the best aristocratic school in the Tang Dynasty, was not used as a waste of time by Pei Xingjian. I don’t know what it would feel like when Li Shimin, who founded the Hongwenguan back then, heard this student named Pei Xingjian say this.

Similar situations are still happening all over the world. They are all preparing to enroll in the military academy, and then become a disciple of the emperor in the future, and have a better future. The military academy will also bring together many students to enrich the reserve force of the Tang army. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
