Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    When spring is warm and flowers are blooming, busy figures can be seen everywhere in the fields. The rye in the fields has entered a high-speed growth period after being moistened by winter snow. It is a lot of labor to survive the busy trip of watering, fertilizing, weeding and killing insects.  ¡· Zheng Tong led dozens of young men to open the arsenal in the palace. All the swords, bows and arrows were neatly placed on the weapon racks. The young men stared at the bright light in a daze.  "Don't be stunned, bring out the bows and arrows first." Zheng Tong directed the young people to work. These young people are children in the village. The oldest is seventeen or eighteen, and the youngest is only fourteen or fifteen. In previous years, they should be in the fields.  Following their parents, they were busy with farm work, but in recent years more and more children have escaped the constraints of farmland and entered public schools set up by the county to study and become literate. They are smarter and more knowledgeable than their parents.  Public schools were opened a few years ago. Every county must set up public schools. The county only charges basic books, writing and ink fees, which is only 30 cents per semester. In addition to books for learning to write, each child also gets  Cheap pens and ink are provided, and the simplest course offered in public schools is calligraphy. In three school years, you can learn all the commonly used characters, and you can understand the imperial newspaper and the documents and decrees issued by the county. In addition, you can also get competitive food.  Qualifications of an assistant officer.  Although the villagers who have become rich look down upon Dou Shi, but nowadays, which family does not have two or three children waiting to eat, according to the Han system, the eldest son inherits the largest land in the family, and it is inevitable that the younger son will go out to make a living on his own. The current  Zhang Ou, the imperial censor, fell into this category. For young sons or even illegitimate children who lacked a source of income from land, fighting for food as an assistant officer was quite attractive.  In addition, those who have studied for three years and are at least fifteen years old can serve in advance.  In the army, they will be vigorously trained as reserve grassroots officers, and they must learn the "Han Code" and various military regulations and disciplines.  They also have to receive more professional military command training, and they will serve in the army as professional soldiers for a long time.  But the opportunities are usually relatively few.  Those with excellent grades after three years of studying in the public school will continue their studies in the county public school for three years. During this year, they will receive more comprehensive knowledge instillation. Those with better grades will be sent to Taixue for the last four years of study.  Lu served in the army for several years before making a career choice. At worst, he could stay in the county and become a merchant (handicraftsman). The Han family did not have any regulations that discriminated against merchants.  After three years of education, the boy from Nanzhuang can read, read and write. He belongs to the educated people in the village. Usually, these gangsters are very arrogant, not to mention how majestic they are. Only when they face the high-ranking people in Zhuangzi will they lower their heads.  Pretend to be honest.  Zheng Tong is not only a military meritorious officer, but also the upright person in the village. He is usually the one who disciplines these children.  "Boys, take a good look. This is the thing you will come into contact with the most in the army in the future, the longbow! Now I want to teach you how to use and maintain the longbow. The first thing is to hang the bow string." Zheng Tong was carrying the long bow without the bow string.  , taught the practical skills of hanging the bow string in a strict manner. In the Han Empire, where all the people were soldiers, everyone from the elderly to the women working in the fields had to master the skills of hanging the bow string. The elderly were all soldiers when they were young.  Women need to protect their homes in the absence of the men.  The techniques for hanging bowstrings circulated among the Han army were all kinds of strange. Some people specially developed practical string-hanging tools, but more people still used their own unorthodox methods to hang bowstrings, usually using their own calves as support to hang the strings left and right.  Some masters have also developed techniques for hanging bow strings without any support.  Zheng Tong¡¯s technique of hanging the bow string is relatively common. Smart children can learn it at a glance, while clumsy children can learn it after a while of thinking.  After passing the basic threshold of hanging a bow string, we will explain various matters that need to be paid attention to during the maintenance and use of bows and arrows.  In fact, what he said was very simple. The children in the village had learned simple archery skills in public schools.  But no one felt anxious or dissatisfied. They listened to every word with rapt attention, because they knew that what was said below would be the most important part of archery.  An experienced hunter is like a walking dictionary. They can sum up the art of archery incisively and vividly. Zheng Tong is an experienced hunter. He is also an excellent soldier who has stepped into the threshold of a marksman. A good teacher can make students less  Taking detours and reducing unnecessary waste of time and energy can encourage and help students make rapid progress.  Zheng Tong is a man of action who is calm, smart and lacks words. He will show every key point of archery seriously. Children with high understanding will soon learn his true teachings. They only need to practice day and night and they will reach his level sooner or later.  , but children with poor understanding are very troubled. Some people are not naturally suitable for practicing archery, some people are born with poor hands-on skills and learn very slowly, and some are not patient enough and tend to give up halfway. There are various reasons.  As a result, half of the people gave up archery every time.  "Is there a quick way to master archery?" "No." "How long does it take to become a qualified archer?" "According to the learning attitude."?Talent ranges from three to five years, and some people never master it in their entire lives.  ¡± Zheng Tong answered every question patiently. He knew that many people were blocked from learning archery in the first semester. This was also the main reason why many apprentices gave up. He would try to maintain a gentle attitude when answering the questions of young people.  He neither berates nor scolds nor uses swear words. Last year, the Pingyang Marquis Mansion published a basic training manual for training young soldiers. This book was only quietly circulated within the Pingyang Marquis Mansion. Only Li Zheng knew it in detail. Ordinary villagers only  Get a general idea. The children happily took their small bows to practice archery. Nanshan Natural Shooting Range is a favorite place for Chang'an residents. Hundreds of thousands of arrows fall into the dense forest every day, so that picking up arrows has become a hobby.  It is a profitable business. Every evening, there will be a person responsible for recycling arrows and selling them to young people practicing archery at a low price. Mr. Zheng was sitting in the sun at the entrance of the village. The old men in the village went fishing by the Ba River. Mr. Zheng scolded them angrily.  Stupidly, there were fish fry boxes and cages stocked by the village in the Bahe River. It was really uncomfortable to go fishing there. After basking in the sun for a while, I accidentally saw a few old men wandering around the field ridge. ¡°Hey, why are you here?  , come here and sit and talk.  "Mr. Zheng hurriedly walked over when he saw the person clearly. Gongxi and a few elders who walked towards him were inspecting the house. The old men were not polite to him. They were sitting on the Zheng family's futon and drinking the hot tea he made.  He said with a smile: "You guys have been very tight lately!  I saw the strong men of Nanzhuang being raised up for military training every now and then. Is there some rumor in the court?  " "No, no, if there is any news about our promotion to the common people, we should consider that we have to prepare early for a war in the north. If something happens, our descendants may have to go to war.  " Mr. Zheng denied it. Several old men smiled knowingly. They were all old foxes in their 70s and 80s. Brothers who had been brothers for decades had already figured out each other's temperament. In the words of these old men, they were like donkeys who know who they are when they stick their butts out.  Pulling a few donkey dung eggs. Mr. Zheng has his own reasons for hurrying. Other Zhuangzi also have their own ideas for rushing. Gongxi is the third elder in the village who is in charge of the folk customs in the village. Which village's children are studying in public schools?  There are detailed records of which village has young men who have been busy outside recently. Although many of them are not responsible for educating young people, they still have a lot of chores. The administrative rank of the township officials is more like clerical and file management.  They are still the kind of junior officials who go to the countryside to make statistical data and stay in the county government for a long time to cooperate with the county officials. The most worrying thing in the countryside is the three elders who have no salary and no authority.  He said: "The war in the north has begun.  " "Well, if you beat me, there will be nothing wrong with us.  "Mr. Li said with squinted eyes. "You will lose.  " "I think so too.  " Several elderly people unanimously agreed, twirling their beards with joy and saying with a smile: "This is not good. It is not a good sign that our Han army will lose the battle!  " "Think about how wise Emperor Taizu Gao was in those days. He was beaten by the Qin army at the beginning and fled to the mountains to seek refuge. In the Battle of Pengcheng, the 560,000 princes' coalition forces were defeated by Xiang Yu's 30,000 cavalry and could not find their way to the north. Bai Deng  He was surrounded by 400,000 Xiongnu legions. Even with the power of Emperor Taizu Gao, he still lost three battles, not to mention a mere common man.  "Mr. Xu's explosive temper would explode at a moment's notice. Ordinarily, he would have been repaired by these old men long ago, but today it was not done. The old people responded to his mocking of Tian Fu as a common man, and Tian Fu was indeed a common man.  The three elders system has extraordinary significance. Their existence represents a safety relief valve in the Han family system. The grassroots people represented by the three elders can directly communicate with the three officials and nine ministers of the imperial court. The three elders can also write directly.  The memorials were specially delivered to the emperor, and the emperor had to respond to them just like the ministers. From the emergence of the feudal system to the gradual disintegration of the feudal system, one of the most outstanding institutional innovations of the three elders was almost the same.  It perfectly solves the serious deviation between the personal tendencies of feudal lords and the imperial system, as well as the exploitation and oppression of grassroots people by bureaucratic elite groups under the centralized system.  The new bureaucrats and dignitaries are seizing control of the grassroots in the name of the imperial court. The three elders are not afraid of offending the three ministers and nine ministers, let alone the clairvoyance of Taiwei Tian Fu who is thousands of miles away. Almost everyone with military knowledge knows this.  The war is difficult to fight, and it is unreasonable to use new generals, new soldiers, and new strategies to deal with the Huns. They also attempt to go deep into the Xiongnu prairie to fight a beautiful battle of annihilation. Such outrageous demands are tantamount to sending 50,000 cavalry to death. It is inconvenient for the old people to ridicule the Five Route Army.  The strategy of conquering the Xiongnu is stupid. After much deliberation, only Taiwei Tian Fu is the most suitable to ridicule. Tian Fu has a bad reputation anyway.?, If you have a lot of debts, you won¡¯t have to worry.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature. The novels will be better and updated faster!
