Chapter 31 The first goal, the feast of talents
Time passed very quickly, and two months passed in the blink of an eye. During these two months, Liang Xin had been focusing on the construction of his West Factory. With the help of Yang Jian, the West Factory now has some basic staff.
In the fifth department of the West Factory, the Intelligence and Resources Department is led by Bai Chengfeng. The Intelligence Analysis and Summary Department is in charge of Wang Baosheng, and the West Factory Cavalry is in charge of Lin Chong. As for the internal treasury and human resources department of the West Factory, Liang Xin is temporarily in charge of it himself, but he still He found a few dedicated people to help him do the accounting and record and organize the archives.
"Drink! Ouch!" Lin Chong was accompanying Liang Xin to watch the training of 300 cavalry from the West Factory on the martial arts field of Xingwu Palace. Three hundred people may not sound like a lot, but they were still quite impressive when they stood in a square formation and trained hard.
Liang Xin carefully observed the soldiers and found that they were all burly and simple-looking. If Liang Xin guessed correctly, these soldiers should be the least powerful people in the Forbidden Army. Liang Xin was very satisfied with this, and he was not I like to have some people with ulterior motives mixed into my West Factory.
Liang Xin looked at the soldiers on the martial arts field and nodded slightly before saying to Lin Chong: "These soldiers are all from the Forbidden Army, and each of them has a very good foundation. But soldiers who have never seen blood are just the eggs of new recruits, no matter how well-trained they are. , train them for another two months, then train them with fast horses, and then drag them out to suppress the bandits and see some blood."
"Yes!" Lin Chong responded solemnly.
Liang Xin thought for a while and then said: "Commander Lin, although I have never led troops, I do have some ideas of my own about military training. Can you please listen to it?"
"Please give me some advice, Lord Admiral." Lin Chong said with clasped fists in salute.
Liang Xin waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't take it as a teaching thing, let's exchange experiences." After a few polite words, Liang Xin said seriously: "First of all, I think training soldiers should not only train their physical fitness, but also teach them consciousness."
"Consciousness?" Lin Chong didn't quite understand the meaning of this word.
Liang Xin explained: "Yes, consciousness. For example, being a soldier must be loyal to the emperor and obey orders. Being a soldier is a glorious thing. Being a soldier shoulders the sacred responsibilities entrusted by the country, the nation and the people of the world. Being a soldier is not only for everyone, but also for everyone. Xiaojia. As the saying goes, 'If the skin is gone, the hair will not be attached'. This is the truth. If 'everyone' is gone, how can the 'Xiaojia' be safe, etc... Similar to these principles."
"Yes. What you said makes sense. I will study it carefully after I go down." Lin Chong thought thoughtfully.
Liang Xin nodded and continued: "In addition, I think military regulations are the most important thing for soldiers. The rigor of military regulations does not lie in how to punish soldiers after they make mistakes, but should start from every small detail. As the saying goes, details determine success or failure. Well."
"Details determine success or failure?" Lin Chong was confused again. He felt in his heart that the Admiral was really tall, as tall as several floors.
"Well, let me give you an example. I think soldiers should set up special housekeeping regulations. From getting up, sleeping, folding quilts, dressing, etc., there must be strict regulations. Over time, soldiers will naturally develop the habit of abiding by military regulations. Habit."
After hearing this, Lin Chong thought about it for a while, and immediately bowed to Liang Xin and said, "Your Excellency is really resourceful and far-sighted. Lin Chong admires him."
"No, I'm just giving advice. The specific implementation depends on you, Commander Lin." Liang Xin laughed and said. Just kidding, what he wants is not a group of stupid soldiers, except for what Liang Xin said before. , what Liang Xin values most is the combat effectiveness of the Xichang cavalry.
Once the iron cavalry comes out, who in the world can compete with him! This is what Liang Xin wants.
After coming out of the Xingwu Hall, Liang Xin went straight to the Yang Mansion. On the way to the Yang Mansion, Liang Xin saw that the streets were full of scholars wearing turbans and long robes holding folding fans. From time to time, Liang Xin heard another sound.
There was a burst of firecrackers, and Liang Xin knew that this year's palace examination results were released, and the people on the list were setting off firecrackers to celebrate.
Entering the Yang Mansion, Ren Hu bluntly said that Yang Jian had been waiting in the study for a long time. Liang Xin followed Ren Hu to Yang Jian's study. After knocking on the door, Liang Xin said: "My foster father is a child."
"It's Xin'er, come in." Yang Jian's slightly feminine voice came from the study.
When Liang Xin pushed the door open and walked in, he found Yang Jian practicing calligraphy. Liang Xin went over to take a look and found that Yang Jian's writing was average, but each word was faintly dense and thick, which showed that Yang Jian was a person who made decisions before taking action.
After Yang Jian finished writing a few words, he looked up and looked at Liang Xin and said: "Xin'er, His Majesty often praises your calligraphy as a master that combines the strengths of hundreds of schools of thought and is self-contained. How about you comment on my calligraphy?"
Liang Xin did not really evaluate his words as Yang Jian said. Instead, he raised his head and frowned at Yang Jian and asked with slight surprise: "Is the Imperial College offering wine?"
That's right. The five big characters written by Yang Jian on the paper were the Imperial Academy's offering of wine. Liang Xin guessed and asked Yang Jian: "Does the foster father want the child to touch him?"
Yang Jian smiled and nodded, and then wrote the three words Shen Chunyang on the paper. After writing, Yang Jian put down the pen and said: "Shen Chunyang, on the surface, is a benevolent and righteous gentleman, but in fact he is a shameless person who is greedy for money and lust. He takes advantage of his position.
In order to collect bribes and leak test questions, he wantonly developed the so-called Shen clique in the court. In addition, he shamelessly persecuted his own students and took the opportunity to seize other people's wives and concubines. He is simply a dressed-up beast. I think you, the West Factory, have the responsibility and obligation to treat such a person.
His scandalous behavior was made public."
"Yes! Foster father." Liang Xin secretly kept Shen Chunyang in his mind and planned to go back and investigate him carefully. If nothing happens, Shen Chunyang will really fall into trouble this time. Because since Yang Jian proposed to touch him first, it must be
Balance the relationship between all parties. As long as no one protects him, the first battle of the West Factory will definitely result in victory.
After saying this, Yang Jian talked about another topic: "Tonight there is a banquet for talented scholars in the imperial garden of the palace. The top picks, second picks and top picks of this year will all attend. The emperor has appointed you to attend together, and it will also be convenient for those who
The so-called talented people, let’s see what a true talented person is.”
"Yes! Foster father." Liang Xin responded.
Yang Jian looked at Liang Xin and thought for a while before saying: "This time my adoptive father received the news, saying that the talented people in Bianjing are quite dissatisfied with you. Because your "Moyu'er. Yanqiu Ci" is just a temporary skill.
You did it by chance, but you got the title of 'the best talent in Bianjing'. So the talents in Bianjing are encouraging the top three on the gold list to undermine your prestige."
"Haha? The most talented person in Bianjing?" Liang Xin smiled: "Father, I have never kept this title in my heart. But since someone wants to undermine my prestige, it happens that I also want to see this top three person on the gold list.
How real is it?"
"Okay! This is the style I, the son of Yang Jian, should have. Now prepare yourself. When you enter the palace in the evening, you will represent us eunuchs and defeat the prestige of those talented people. Those talented people treat us eunuchs all day long.
It’s sarcastic, I’ve been holding my breath for a long time, it’s not easy for a talented person like you to appear among our eunuchs, we must express our anger well this time.”
Yang Jian said excitedly.
