Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 89

After the daily morning exercises, Shen Zhezi led the team back to the camp in Liquan Valley from the other side of the stream.

The group of teenagers behind them are all children from their shaded families.Originally, Shen Zhezi expected to recruit 300 people, but later on, there were more and more shade households sending their children to Longxi Village. Up to now, there are nearly 600 people, organized into two battalions.

For those shady households, these half-grown teenagers are already considered a strong labor force, and can share a lot of farm work.However, after the household property is transferred to the public, the manor produces in a unified manner, and no longer assigns responsibility to each family. Workers will have food, and they will be promoted through meritorious service.Therefore, every family is willing to send their sons to Longxi Village to follow the young master, even if they can't get ahead, they may still learn a little craftsmanship and bring benefits to the whole family.

The only content that Shen Zhezi personally experienced in the later Taiping era, which can be said to be related to the military, was military training in universities.He also didn't intend to train these teenagers into professional soldiers like marionettes, so he didn't let his family members or tribes who were proficient in military training to train them in the future, but took responsibility and groped to train them.

After getting along day and night for more than half a year, these teenagers have undergone a lot of changes. They are no longer as stubborn or dull as they were when they were sent in the first place, and they are already quite impressive.

After entering the camp, as soon as Shen Zhezi knocked on the drum under the gate, the phalanx behind him was divided into small teams of 30 people, led by the head of the camp, and walked into the dining hall next to the school grounds, where they sat upright.The seats are not the Yanji or seats used by people nowadays, but long wooden stools, sitting around a large table with ten people at each table.

The steaming hot soup breakfast was brought up and distributed to each table in an orderly manner, and then someone shouted: "Why food and clothing?"

"Father farms and mother weaves, and provides me with food and clothing! If you don't repay this kindness, your life will be in vain!"

The teenagers responded loudly, and immediately picked up the bowls and chopsticks, and began to eat.

Shen Zhezi also took pains to write these slogans.Nowadays, the folk customs are simple and honest, and these teenagers are a piece of paper. Most of them have never left the Shen family's manor when they grow up to this age, and most of them don't even know what dynasty is and who is the king.

The advantage of this is that Shen Zhezi can instill his own ideas into these young people, but the disadvantage is that he must pay attention to the control of the scale, not to be too advanced and out of the world, otherwise it will be another matter whether these young people will succeed or not, and all kinds of ideas are in their minds The collision burns out the brain first.

So there is no need to talk about big topics such as national righteousness and helping the community, just start from the personal, and establish a thinking mode for them to dare to take responsibility and do things bravely.

Jiehu flesh and blood, fatten my fields, these teenagers shout slogans every day, but some of them don't even know what Jiehu is, which shows that the folk customs are closed.Shen Zhezi was not in a hurry to explain, so they imagined Jiehu as a kind of fertilizer that can raise the field and increase the income.

The teenagers are very busy with their schoolwork, so they eat fast, and there is less than half an hour in the morning for eating and resting.After this time, the team in charge of duty that day put away the tableware and cleaned the canteen.

As soon as Shen Zhezi put down the porridge bowl, he saw Ji You not far away, walked over and said with a smile: "The journey was tiring, I thought literature was going to lie down at noon."

Ji You's expression was not relaxed, he looked at those young men, and said with doubts: "Wei Zhou, this is the way Shen Jiahao crowns Jiangdong's military training?"

Shen Zhezi smiled slightly after hearing the words. Nowadays, there are many tribal tribes of the wealthy family. It is not a taboo thing to practice rural courage to protect their homeland in their spare time.However, it is true that there are not many people like him who build camps and practice all day long, which is ridiculed by people, so Liquan Valley does not allow idlers to enter or leave.

But Ji You still misunderstood him when he thought so. He was not training soldiers, but generals.Physical training is only a supplement to exercise people's physique and willpower, and the instillation of many knowledge courses is the real focus.It is even inaccurate to say that they will be trained generals. In the future, some of these teenagers may serve as military officers, but more of them will become civil servants who take care of common affairs.

In other words, if Shen Zhezi can hold an important post integrating military and government in one person in the future, the children of the youth camp will be a big net in his hands, and he can firmly net military and political resources and quickly build a stable and powerful power organization.But there is no need to explain too much to Ji You about these preparations for a rainy day.

But Ji You had another feeling, and he said to Shen Zhezi with a straight face: "Wei Zhou, don't blame me for talking too much. Now that you have quite a reputation, it is time to cultivate yourself and study hard. It is not an extravagant hope to become a family in the future." Although the Shen family has a heroic character, these matters can be entrusted to your relatives and friends, and you really don't need to do it yourself!"

Hearing Ji You's words, Shen Zhezi couldn't help being silent.At present, the situation in Jiangdong has just stabilized. Although the noble families have not yet reached the trend of complete retreat in the later period, the clues have already emerged.Ji You persuaded him this way because he was worried that he would stay in the army and be looked down upon by others in this current world.

"Literature's statement may be reasonable nowadays, but I don't agree with it. The barbarians in the north are raging, Jiang Dongwu, and overseas Chinese are fighting against each other. For my hometown, I should be brave enough to take responsibility. How can I wait for the prosperous age? Ji Shi is alive in the world At that time, when the Sixth Army was promoted and Jiehu was promoted, all the people in Jiangdong looked up to Houze to find peace. After Ji Shi, who is there in Jiangdong?"

Shen Zhezi also said sternly to Ji You: "Earlier, I promised Master Ji that I would like to be a veteran in this life and protect my hometown. I want to be innocent, so why not be afraid to speak wrongly. If no one does this, how can the sages have a place to sit? "

Hearing Shen Zhezi's confession, even if Ji You tried to persuade him again, he was speechless for a while.He lived in Jiankang capital for a long time, and he saw the children of powerful families feasting and chatting all day long, and he was even ashamed of doing business and managing his career.Shen Zhezi's reputation is better than them, and his family background is rich and powerful, and he is also a leader in Wuzhong.

This feeling really touched him.However, he has been in Jiankang for a long time, and it is difficult to accept this attitude towards life for a while.

"I invite you to come to Wukang, literature, and I also want to persuade you. You don't know the grains of the meat and worms, and you don't work hard. , waiting to be slaughtered. He is not ashamed to discuss friendship with me, and I am not ashamed to sit with him."

Shen Zhezi looked at Ji You again and said: "Literature, you must not be guided by the world and turn into a fantasy dreamland. Shi Jilong's southern bandits in Yongjia were defeated by Master Ji. The bandits in the north are even more powerful. If they come back, In whose hands are you and my life entrusted?"

Shi Jilong was later Zhao Shihu. In the tenth year of Yongjia's reign, the southern invaders Shouchun, the imperial court sent Ji Zhan to lead an army northward to defeat them.At that time, the Shi clan still had few soldiers and little food, but now the general situation has been established, most of the Central Plains homeland is occupied by it, and the northern land is divided in the middle.

Ji You was startled when he heard this, but he was puzzled immediately: "It is often said that the Xiongnu and Jiehu are all tyrannical beasts, they violate morality, and they are definitely not the ones who can obtain the destiny and enjoy the country for a long time. Could they really attack Jiangdong?"

"Wang Ge Gaomen, all have Taoist teachers, and everyone at the time respects them. Why were they chased south by those without Taoism and became a dog of mourning? The only one who messed up our country is the sword ear! Hulu was originally a genus of beasts, but Expecting to educate them with morality, this is an insane idea! Father's blood, mother's blood, precepts and deeds, daily food, how can you put misfortune and fate in the hands of others to play with!"

Shen Zhezi sneered. He saw that Ji You was still frowning, and he didn't expect to change his deep-rooted ideas with a few words, so he said: "You and I have a deep friendship with literature, so we can seek common ground while reserving differences. Since you have come to the camp You may wish to sit quietly and watch for a few days. If you really feel that this place is boring, I will accompany you on a leisurely tour of the mountains and rivers, and visit friends and ask sages."

Ji You nodded, agreeing. Although he felt a little uncomfortable, he was also curious.

At this time, the teenagers had already had breakfast, stepped out of the dining hall and lined up in the school grounds, counted their heads, and the chief reported to Shen Zhezi: "I tell you, my team should have 30 people. If there are 30 people, line up." Finished, please instruct!"

The sense of ritual is created bit by bit. The reason why Shen Zhezi adopted the form of counting in later generations instead of the current military etiquette is to let these young people distinguish themselves from those lazy and corrupt military households in the state and county open.

Nowadays, the status of military households is low, not only because of the world style, but also because they despise themselves.If Shen Zhezi wanted to create a sense of collective honor in the hearts of these young people, he had to draw a clear line with those state and county soldiers.

After breakfast, the school day begins.It is naturally impossible for Shen Zhezi to copy the nine-year compulsory education curriculum of later generations, and he has almost forgotten everything he can forget.The courses are mainly divided into two categories, one is Chinese and the other is mathematics. As for the following detailed subjects, he will increase or decrease according to whether he thinks it is necessary.

The Shen family has its own standing armaments, including Longxi soldiers and Zhuang soldiers, and it has nearly 2000 people, and the loss is not small.It is also quite difficult to support another [-] juvenile camps that have completely escaped production.The so-called middle-aged and poor fathers, although Shen Zhezi is not their father, but the high expectations and responsibilities they have placed are much more important than their fathers.

Therefore, the youth camp adopts the method of half work and half teaching. After half a year of basic training, groups are divided according to their respective learning progress, and they are divided into various workshops for further study.

Those who can master more than [-] commonly used characters in half a year will be sent to the printing workshop for proofreading to increase their vocabulary and copywriting level.Those who have been able to master the four arithmetic operations will check the accounts in each workshop.Those whose brains really couldn't keep up with the progress, turned to Zhuang Bing to patrol the security.

Only such high-intensity learning and training can identify the talents of each teenager, so as to continue to teach students in accordance with their aptitude.Shen Zhezi planned to lead these teenagers to conduct a long-distance training in advance of the year, walking from Wukang to Kuaiji Shanyin Laodi Governance, and returning to Wukang before the Spring Festival.

Of course, long-distance training is not simply a rush, but to collect wind and experience along the way, apply what you have learned to practice, record folk customs and travel notes, and survey and map topography.It's not just a training for these teenagers, it's also a training for Shen Zhezi's own abilities.

If it wasn't for Ji You's coming to Wukang, Shen Zhezi would have been on his way by now.
