Daming: You are really my eldest son

Chapter 94 The Principal's Speech
Dingyou in August, a not so special day.

Hundreds of generals and schools in iron armor and phoenix helmets gathered in the Arms School located on the west side of the imperial city, next to the West Eighteenth Guards Barracks, looking ahead curiously and cautiously.

Zhu Ji wore a gold-plated phoenix-winged helmet, a fish-scale leaf armor, and a bow and quiver hanging from his waist. Behind him were dozens of princes, standing majestically in front of these students who had been formally registered in the Military Equipment Academy.

Starting to practice martial arts in early spring, Zhu Ji is no longer the weak and weak person he was at the beginning.

It may not be possible to single out one of them in front of you, but at least it can make these men who have fought on the battlefield not see a trace of weakness.

"I think you are the elite of your respective guards, otherwise you wouldn't stand out among thousands of people. Maybe you think that soldiers only need to fight on the battlefield, and it's not suitable to engage in such literary things, but today I want to tell you —Big mistake.

War is never an easy thing.

Sun Wuzi said, soldiers, the great affairs of the country, the place of life and death, the way of survival, must be observed.Throughout the ages, many famous generals spent their entire lives seeking ways to win. Many of them recorded very classic battles, and many of them summed up very incisive tactics. "

"What you have to do is to seek the chances of winning the future battlefield by learning from the experience of the predecessors. From the moment you enter here, you are no longer small banners, general banners, or hundreds of households, but thousands of households, commanding, commander."

"As disciples of the Son of Heaven, you will guard the territory of the Ming Dynasty, protect the people of the Ming Dynasty, and be loyal to the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. For this, are you ready to face hardships and life and death?"

"Here!"

There is no impassioned preparation at any time, only a loud and clear promise can be passed on to Guozixue on the other side of the river.

Disciple of the Son of Heaven, this is an extremely glorious title.From this moment on, this name will accompany them for a lifetime.

From the mouth of this strange His Royal Highness King Yong, these officers from the bottom class heard the emperor's expectations for them, and also heard the Heavenly Dao waving to them.

As for hardship and life and death, that kind of thing has been with them since the moment they became military households. Even if they don't come here, in the face of strict military laws, don't they still have to put aside their fear and go to the battlefield.

Zhu Ji was very satisfied with the passionate roars of these young people not much older than himself.

Such spirit is essential if one wants to persevere in the complicated and demanding teaching of the Armed Forces Academy.

And the first difficulty facing these young people was about to emerge from Zhu Ji's mouth.

"I appreciate your ambition, but you can't persevere if you have a loud voice here. Among you, those who know more than a thousand characters, stand up."

Zhu Ji doesn't know how many Chinese characters there are in this era, but if he knows more than a thousand characters, he can learn the courses of the Military Equipment Academy without hindrance.

It has been known for a long time that the literacy rate in the Ming army is generally low, and I don't want any of these grassroots officers to stand up and respond to Zhu Ji's order.

The atmosphere suddenly became embarrassing, and the officers who were already full of enthusiasm lowered their heads shyly, not daring to meet Zhu Ji's eyes, for fear that His Royal Highness King Yong would hurt their souls.

Faced with such an ending, although Zhu Ji was surprised, it was more or less acceptable.

Thinking about how my own father treated these military households harshly, this kind of result is really understandable.

"Keep your heads up. It's not shameful to be illiterate. Many of you are soldiers for your life. There is no condition for you to be able to read and write in the army. This is normal."

Zhu Ji's voice was exceptionally gentle. To such a group of poor and lovely people, Zhu Ji just wanted to give them dignity and respect as much as possible.

"So from today, you have half a year to learn to read and write. The basic requirements are like the Mongolian children in the county school. Three hundred thousand must be able to read, write and recite. Is it possible for you to do it?"

"can!"

Compared with the promise just now, this answer is full of surprise and joy.

It never occurred to them that they would have the opportunity to study when they came to this military equipment school.This is the dream of many people in their guard, because studying means deliberately getting into the army to advance to the advanced level.

Based on the item of reading and literacy alone, these officers knew that His Royal Highness King Yong said that they might be thousands of households, commanders, and command envoys in the future, and it was not at all trying to make cakes for them.

"Since it is a school, there are naturally rules for entering school. I found the rules of the county school, and someone will announce it for you later. What I want to tell you is that every month, the school will have a monthly exam. Every three months, the school will have quarterly exams, and after half a year, there will be general exams."

"But if you fail the exam once, you will be expelled from the military training school and sent back to the original guard."

"In addition, there are exercises every day before morning class and after evening class, and you must not be absent without reason."

These hundreds of people have long been dazzled by the good news of literacy, and what Zhu Ji said now has no reason to disobey them at all.

When another "here" sounded, Zhu Ji turned and left in satisfaction.

The principal's speech ended here, and the next thing was naturally arranged for Xungui.

Passing through this courtyard, Zhu Ji couldn't help frowning.

Compared with the lower-level generals who were strictly disciplined and murderous, the other courtyard was obviously much more noisy.

Zhu Ji's footsteps that stopped suddenly caused many nobles behind him to stop. Without waiting for those who were confused to ask, Li Wenzhong, who is familiar with Zhu Ji's character, asked:
"Your Highness, do you want someone to go in and kill the arrogance of these little things?"

According to Li Wenzhong's idea, as long as one or two of them go in and scold them a little, those little guys in the yard will naturally become extremely quiet.

But after all, Zhu Ji didn't want these honorable heirs, who usually like to make trouble, to live so comfortably.

"Send a few people in to record those yelling guys, and give me the list in two quarters of an hour. Also, the honorable heirs who came to this Arms Academy today, according to the list, invite me to come here with their adults."

While speaking, the complexions of many nobles behind Zhu Ji became ugly.

Obviously there are their heirs in this yard, and the experience of listening to and listening to them in the Governor's Mansion during this period of time told them that next, this killing stick will not only be hit on those bastards in the yard.

Looking back at the nobles with weird expressions, Li Wenzhong grinned, but after all he beckoned to let the guards behind him follow Zhu Ji's instructions.

As for the courtyard next door, which was unaware of all this, the noise became more and more noisy as time went by.
