After being exiled, I led my whole family to rebel.

Ming Xiaoshuang waved his hand and sat down opposite Bai Cien. Ming Xiaoshuang had never interrogated anyone before, so he was thinking a lot about what to say, but when he got to the end, he got straight to the point: "Well, General Bai, I am Ming Xiaoshuang, you can call me Director Ming. Our city lord asked me to come and talk to you."

Factory director?

What is that? Or a personal name?

So this person is not the leader of the Qingtou Gang?

Does the arrival of Ming Xiaoshuangneng mean that the Qingtou Gang has taken care of the natives and successfully taken over Shunyuan City?

Bai Ci'en was even more wary, "City Lord? Where is your City Lord? Ask him to come and talk to me."

"Our city lord is busy and has no time. As for me, I'm here to tell you about our city lord's arrangements. The people under your command will definitely not be able to leave and will have to stay. But don't worry, our city lord is kind-hearted and never kills innocent people indiscriminately. , your soldiers stay to help us farm and open up wasteland, and we don’t take their lives, is that enough?”

Bai Cien's expression changed, "You want to enslave my soldiers, that's impossible?!"

Only then did Ming Xiaoshuang realize that he had misunderstood. The people who cleared land in the Zhou Dynasty were basically coolies, and they didn't have enough to eat. Generally, only prisoners were assigned to do the work of clearing land.

Ming Xiaoshuang smiled and said: "Little General Bai, you misunderstood. Our land reclamation here is different from that of the Zhou Dynasty. We have a four-hour work system, with a half-hour lunch break in between, and the workload is not large. Not only food and accommodation are provided, but wages are also paid. We went to the prison camp and asked around before, and there were quite a few people who were willing to stay."

"You!" Bai Ci'en was so angry that his chest heaved, especially when he heard Ming Xiaoshuang keep saying that you, the Zhou Dynasty, are obviously rebels. "Do you know that rebellion will cause you to lose your head? You two or three thousand people also want to rebel? Let me tell you, as soon as the imperial soldiers arrive to suppress the bandits, you will be killed by the nine tribes! I think you are just like Jiang Yongkang, you are young, why do you want to join the bandits?!"

Ming Xiaoshuang said with a smile: "Don't bother General Bai. To be honest, our city lord has occupied Jinzhou Mansion, and now Qianzhou is also in the pocket. Speaking of which, General Bai might as well surrender Our city lord——"

"Fart, as an official of the Zhou Dynasty, how could I collude with the rebels! If you have the ability, kill me now to sacrifice to heaven!"

"Hey, look at you, why are you so impulsive? I haven't finished speaking yet." Ming Xiaoshuang shook his head, "Who said you were going to be imprisoned? Our city lord said that we will treat prisoners preferentially. If you want to leave, you can Just leave."

Bai Cien was stunned.

He couldn't figure out what trick these people were playing.

They captured him, didn't kill him, didn't instigate him to rebel, didn't torture him about the secrets of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and actually planned to let him go just like that?

Such an abnormal behavior made Bai Cien even more vigilant!

Ming Xiaoshuang looked at Bai Ci'en as if he was facing a formidable enemy and rolled his eyes, "Okay, do you think you are very valuable? Our city lord said that you are an average person with average hands and average brains. As a general, his personal comprehensive ability is not outstanding. In terms of physical fitness, he is no match for Jiang Yongkang, and in terms of battle strategy, he is no match for Liu Pan'er. We don't have idle people in our team, so the city lord said to let you go directly."

Bai Cien was shocked, and then as if he had been deeply humiliated, he sneered: "I have been familiar with military books since I was a child. I followed my father to the military camp when I was ten years old, and went to the battlefield alone at the age of fourteen. Now I am only twenty years old. You are already a second-grade general, you are just a bunch of rabble, you just won this battle by luck, you have such a big tone, you dare to humiliate me like this——"

"Humiliation?" Ming Xiaoshuang didn't have much reaction on his face, as if he was stating the facts. Compared to Bai Cien's anger, Ming Xiaoshuang looked very calm, "I don't think it is a humiliation. You may not know much about our city lord. , that’s why you have this kind of prejudice, but to be honest, if you, General Bai, come to our side, in addition to having a father who is a first-class military lord, you may not even be able to defeat us on your own. The team leader here, oh no, you can’t even be what you call a hundred households. You don’t have to stare at me like this. If you don’t believe me, I will give you a test paper for our soldiers’ monthly exam. Come and try your hand and see. How many points you get gives you an idea of ​​where you are with us.”

Bai Cien frowned.

He was a little calmer now.

But he still couldn't figure out what these rebels wanted to do.

I have seen rebels who yelled and killed, and I have seen bandits who burned and looted, but I have never seen rebels who have to take exams as soon as they come up——

"What, Little General Bai doesn't dare?" Ming Xiaoshuang smiled with squinted eyes and stood up, "In that case, there is nothing to say. You can do whatever you want, go wherever you like!"

"You don't have to provoke me, just bring me the test paper!"

Bai Ci'en thought that the court didn't know much about this rebel bandit. If he could solve the problem, he would be able to understand who the other party was.

What's more, seeing that this group of people was different from the gangsters outside, Bai Cien was extremely wary and naturally wanted to know himself and the enemy.

Ming Xiaoshuang took out the test paper from his arms and placed it in front of him. "The paper must be handed in within an hour."

Alas, Ming Xiaoshuang only felt inconvenient after leaving Lan County. People in Lan County have long been accustomed to looking at clocks. Now that they have arrived in Qianzhou, they can only go back to the old days of counting the time by looking at the sun. Ming Xiaoshuang Only then did I realize how backward the Zhou Dynasty was.

Before Bai Cien had time to read the content, he just looked at the paper and the words, and frowned, "What kind of pen was this written with? Why is the ink so light? You actually used charcoal?"

"It's not a charcoal pen, it's a pencil." Ming Xiaoshuang reluctantly took out a pen from his arms and carefully placed it in front of Bai Ci'en. "You can use it sparingly. I only brought one with me."

Unexpectedly, just a small pencil made Bai Cien's expression change drastically. He almost snatched it away and observed carefully, "What is this? Isn't this a charcoal pencil? But why is there a layer of wood outside? This How do you get the charcoal in? How do you make the charcoal pencil take shape?"

He is worthy of being a top talent cultivated by the imperial court. He can see through the lens and detect something deeper inside with just a pencil.

Ming Xiaoshuang hummed a few words, "This is what our city lord has researched, so don't worry about it. Anyway, just use my pencil to write, and I'll lend it to you! You'll have to return it to me in the future!"

Bai Cien's eyes were filled with shock for a long time.

This group of rebels is too weird!

Ming Xiaoshuang saw Bai Cien's shocked expression and couldn't help but laugh in her heart: Bumpkin, our city lord hasn't used his methods yet. When you see clocks, cement and other things, I won't scare you to death!

Ming Xiaoshuang reminded the time, and Bai Cien immediately focused his attention on the questions on the test paper.

Then, Bai Cien's pupils dilated.

What is this topic?

It was neither policy papers nor classic essays in the imperial examinations of the Great Zhou Dynasty, nor was it a test of famous figures and models. Instead, it started with a lot of arithmetic, such as sailing against the current, chickens and rabbits in the same cage, and binary equations, which made Bai Cien a little confused at first.

Well, it seems that the rebel leader is quite proficient in arithmetic.

As a military commander, it is understandable that he is not good at arithmetic.

The latter is all about the art of war, so there must be a place for him to be useful, right?

Bai Cien was sure that this set of test papers was just to fool him and give him a blow.

There were very few literate people in the Zhou Dynasty, let alone those who could solve such complex arithmetic problems.

He was sure that even if he had an empty exam in the first exam, as long as he could answer the military strategy questions at the end, he would at least be among the best.

But when he took a closer look, he couldn't help but want to throw down his pen in anger.

——What are the four elements of war?

——How to solve the multi-ethnic conflicts in the Zhou Dynasty without relying on war? ——Talk about the characteristics of surrounding environmental security based on the current situation of the Zhou Dynasty?

——A brief discussion on the relationship between national defense and economic construction?

——How does the economic base determine the superstructure? Discuss the relationship between the superstructure and the economic base.

——A brief explanation of the principle of earth dragon turning over.

Bai Cien was a little shocked when she got the question, and then became worried, but in the end it turned into calm.

He has completely confirmed the other party's intention, and it is nothing more than giving him a blow.

Otherwise, such a problem would not have arisen for him.

This set of questions is so difficult that even Prime Minister Han, who was the top scorer in high school, would not be able to answer it.

Bai Cien smiled sarcastically, then felt a little bored, so he simply skipped one question after another until he filled in all the questions he knew.

He handed the test paper to Ming Xiaoshuang, and Ming Xiaoshuang said in surprise: "So fast - you have so much time?"

This time it was Ming Xiaoshuang's turn to be shocked.

He remembered that he scored more than 70 points for this set of questions, which was considered to be above average. But looking at Bai Cien's paper, there were large blanks, and the answers were not on point. He only glanced briefly and knew that the score would not exceed thirty.

This man was also a second-rank general of the Great Zhou Dynasty!

Is this the level of a second-grade general?

Ming Xiaoshuang was a little confused, and Liu Pan'er came over to take a look, and then frowned: "Fortunately, he is not a soldier in our class. If he were in our Lan County, he would be considered half-illiterate!"

Maybe it was Liu Paner's sincere look that hurt Bai Cien. Bai Cien said angrily: "Okay, stop pretending. What on earth do you want to do? You might as well tell me clearly. I've finished the questions and I can leave." Bar?"

Ming Xiaoshuang waved his hand without hesitation, "Let's go, no one will stop you."

Bai Cien couldn't believe it. It could be seen that the soldiers under Ming Xiao's hands showed no sign of stopping him. He couldn't help but feel horrified. What on earth were these people doing?

He stood up and walked out with a vigilant look on his face, until he reached the corridor outside the prison. When he saw that no one was chasing him out, the strange silence made his back shiver.

At this moment, he didn't dare to leave.

Until he heard the discussions of those people clearly reaching his ears.

——Isn’t it right? The generals of the Great Zhou Dynasty were at this level? This is worse than me. I still got over 60 points in the test!

——The soldiers of the Zhou Dynasty were all losers, right? I discovered from the last battle that their soldiers couldn't even understand orders, let alone have any personal qualities of unity and cooperation.

——It would be great if all the soldiers of the Zhou Dynasty were like him! Then we can reach Bianjing just around the corner!

——Don’t underestimate the enemy. There should still be capable people in the Zhou Dynasty, but this little general Bai may be young and lacks battlefield experience. If you look down on the enemy because of a test paper, the city lord will definitely criticize you severely!

Ming Xiaoshuang and the others didn't speak loudly. Several people were commenting on the test paper. Suddenly, they heard Bai Cien's suppressed and angry voice, "Did you just say that you got over sixty points?"

The man seemed stunned, but there was no fear on his face.

Bai Cien also discovered a characteristic of this gang of rebels.

There is never any fear in their eyes, whether they are fighting on the battlefield or meeting the top, there is not a trace of flattery on their bodies.

It’s as if they are an upright person!

Just like the young man who is speaking now, his expression is neither humble nor arrogant, as if he is explaining the facts: "Little General Bai, you don't need to feel insulted. I did get a score of more than 60 on this set of test papers. The average score of this set of questions at that time was 65. I didn’t even reach the average level and was ranked last in the class.”

Ming Xiaoshuang said very thoughtfully: "Don't talk about average, he won't understand."

"Oh, the average is to take a certain amount of samples and then find the average level of everyone. The average is 65 points, which is the sum of high and low scores. Almost everyone is around 65." The soldier scratched his head and said, "Mingchang Sir, I can’t explain it, is that what it means?”

Bai Cien understood.

He was shocked by the soldier's arithmetic ability, but even more surprised by their habit. He gritted his teeth and said, "You said that your average score on this set of test papers is sixty-five. I don't believe it."

"It's up to you whether you believe it or not. Anyway, the city lord said that if your test score is lower than the average, there is no need to keep you. To be honest, we have soldiers of your level everywhere in Lan County. Keeping you will give you an extra White rice——”

"Too much bullying!" Bai Cien felt that he had never been so insulted in his life. He was so angry that veins popped out on his face. However, his anger only lasted for two seconds, and was replaced by a A strong curiosity!

He really didn't believe that there was such a powerful army in the world.

If you go by what they said, the Qingtou Gang trains not soldiers at all, but generals!

Bai Ci'en thought about it, and if what they said was true, they would be a serious problem for the imperial court!

Compared to the natives, these rebels are more terrifying!

It is said that if you know yourself and your enemy, you will be victorious in any battle. Since the other party invites you to enter the urn, how can he retreat halfway?

Okay, he would like to see what kind of medicine these people are selling.

"Okay, then I'll stay and see if your soldiers are really as good as you said."

Speaking of the magic soldiers descending from the sky, Ming Xiaoshuang was really embarrassed to say that they pretended to be gods and ghosts to pass through their food and grass in March.

Seeing how angry the young general of the Bai family is, it's not easy for him to add fuel to the fire.

After all, Ming Xiaoshuang became a little more polite because he was short-tongued, "Okay, I can't control where you go wherever you fall in love. But let me tell you in advance, you better not run around, those toasts haven't left yet." , you killed so many people in their village, be careful of them seeking revenge!"
