Longevity begins with Jinyiwei

Just like watching flowers on a horse, watching from the school field, the soldiers are practicing, the shouts are loud,

On the several large school grounds, the shouts were loud, and the army formations were lined up one by one. There were infantry drills and cavalry tactics, and there were rows of artillery of various types.

In the teaching dormitory, the students may observe the classics of the art of war and the laws of the Ming Dynasty, or learn arithmetic with a pen, or there may be craftsmen experimenting with craftsmanship, observing astronomy and geography...

Everything has almost surpassed the limitations of this era. Many things that seem deviant to the outside world have become commonplace in this martial arts academy under the triple implementation of the system, military law, and Li Xiu's prestige.

Any system will go through this stage from initial creation to maturity.

Martial Academy, of course, is the same.

The expansion of functional authority and scale is one thing, and the improvement of internal organizational systems is another thing.

For example, above the military affairs, it is also subdivided into five subjects: infantry, cavalry, artillery, engineering, and water.

As the name suggests, the corresponding ones are naturally infantry, cavalry, artillery, craftsmen, and navy.

Infantry, cavalry, artillery, and craftsmen are naturally trained in the Polu Mountain Martial Arts Academy, while the Navy is a branch of the Navy established by the Martial Arts Academy in Denglai, which specializes in training sailors and generals.

The subdivision of these systems undoubtedly came from Li Xiu's plan, and many ideas from later generations were naturally added to it.

For example, in this era, people do not pay much attention to arithmetic, craftsmanship, and mythical astronomy, as well as the foundation of many modern sciences. Li Xiu also more or less left seeds in this martial arts academy.

In the martial arts academy that he created by himself, there is no need to worry about his words not being implemented, and there is no need to worry about the prejudice of the general environment and the pressure of public opinion.

The seeds fall, and the rest is to wait for the growth and fermentation under the care of the system and policy.

In the future, when the time is ripe, based on these seeds, it will expand and spread, and the sun and the moon will change to the blue sky, which will become a real reality!

It can be said that even if there is an army of hundreds of thousands, in Li Xiu's heart, it cannot compare with the existence of this martial arts academy.

Not only through the power control spread by the martial arts academy, but also in the martial arts academy, many embryonic systems have been cultivated.

These are the things he values ​​most.

Breeding seeds, spreading, forming a system.

Then, in the not-too-distant future, thousands of years of national self-confidence will not be ruthlessly crushed by outsiders.

That's what he's most likely to do.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have spent so much effort on the layout just for the momentary brilliance.

"Yes, we should continue to maintain it, especially the artisan department. We need to increase investment and expand the scale. Don't be afraid to raise idlers. Millions of troops have been raised. There are hundreds or thousands of people."

"The recruitment of folks who are proficient in skills must also be strengthened, and there is no need to be too scruples about Western learning. Take what is useful, and discard what is useless!"

While walking and observing, Li Xiu also kept telling Zhang Mo, who is now a sacrificial wine in the Martial Academy.

It's just that Zhang Mo, who kept nodding and responding when talking about Western learning, and almost took a notebook to write down what Li Xiu said, also suddenly hesitated.

After hesitating for a while, Zhang Mo couldn't help but said: "General, please clarify the limit of whether to accept or abandon Western learning."

"Ok?"

Seeing Zhang Mo's hesitant expression, Li Xiu was taken aback for a while, and he still didn't react.

Can be appointed by him as the sacrificial wine of the martial arts academy, and control the martial arts academy for him, Zhang Mo is naturally his mother's unquestionable confidant.

A down-and-out scholar, with a poor family, became a refugee, and finally defected to the Yongwei Camp, where he was selected by him as his personal guard and trained repeatedly.

Talent is not too outstanding, but there is one thing that Li Xiu appreciates very much.

As the name suggests, Mo is silent Mo.

Talk less, never talk too much, say what you say, never make a claim, and follow orders to the letter, and strictly implement them.

It is precisely because of this characteristic that he mentioned it to the position of offering wine in the Wuyuan, and implemented various policies and systems in the Wuyuan for him that were not allowed by the environment of the times.

Facts have proved that his appointment is obviously not wrong.

Zhang Mo, stick to the rules, out-and-out, did a very good job.

In the past, he had never raised doubts, but he actually raised doubts about this matter?

This surprised Li Xiu a little.

But soon, Li Xiu came to his senses and said in a deep voice, "You mean the Western religion?"

"The general is wise."

"Xu Guangqi and some missionaries in the courtyard, secretly and often, spread the teachings of Western religion. In the end, because the craftsmen and other disciplines have not yet formed, they can only turn a blind eye and close one eye."

"But at the end of the day, the general thinks that the teachings of the Western religion are really crooked and heresy. If it is allowed to develop through the power of the martial arts academy, it may cause a lot of disaster."

After receiving Zhang Mo's affirmative reply, Li Xiu's expression suddenly darkened!

Talking about Western learning in today's era is naturally inseparable from the group of missionaries.

Western culture, at the very beginning, was able to spread all over the world. Apart from the rise of the Age of Discovery, it was naturally inseparable from missionaries who left their hometowns and traveled thousands of miles just to spread the teachings of the Lord.

In fact, since he came to power, many missionaries have intended to visit, but, in the eyes of the people of Ming Dynasty today, they are just foreign barbarians.

Not to mention the majestic servants of Duke Qin's Mansion of the Ming Dynasty, they would blow them away with sticks when they saw them, so as not to pollute the noble place!

However, with the layout of many modern disciplines in the martial arts academy, he increased his search for talents, and inevitably, western learning appeared in his field of vision.

In fact, it doesn't mean that today's Western learning is stronger than Ming's "extraordinary obscenity skills", it just means that compared with the suppression of science in the great Ming environment, Western learning is more systematic.

Under such circumstances, for the layout of the martial arts academy, Li Xiu naturally did not hesitate to learn from Western learning.

Get rid of the dross, take the essence, and incorporate it into the "extraordinary and obscene skills" of the Ming Dynasty to form a standardized discipline that belongs to the Ming Dynasty.

Then hide it in the artisan department of the martial arts academy to avoid the pressure of public opinion in the great era.

In this way, it is naturally inseparable from missionaries, or in other words, inseparable from the so-called teachings of the West.

After all, a missionary's job is to preach, and people in Ming Dynasty who are proficient in Western learning, such as Xu Guangqi, are mostly brainwashed by those so-called teachings and become so-called believers.

In fact, Li Xiu never believed that those Western religions had much room for survival in the land of Ming Dynasty. After all, the thousands of years of Chinese civilization were incompatible with those Western religions.

However, if it is allowed to grow with the help of the powerful group of the Martial Arts Academy, then it is not necessarily the case!

"What I want is to take the essence and discard the dross!"

"Western knowledge can be used, but Western teachings must never appear!"

"Western learning is not much better than our own. Now that craftsmen and other disciplines have begun to take shape, it is really impossible..."

As for this, Li Xiu didn't say any more.

From the very beginning, the fate of those missionaries was doomed.

The disciplines of the Martial Arts Academy are the crystallization of wisdom from outside and abroad, as well as the integration of academics and research.

Although at present, there are not many inter-generational achievements.

But the soil has been formed, and there will always be a day of fruit.

As the saying goes, if you are not of my race, your heart must be different!

Naturally, Li Xiu would not let these missionaries go back to the West with the crystallization of wisdom he had finally integrated.

Their end, or, they will give up the teachings and become a martial arts teacher honestly.

Or, go to hell and be reunited with their Lord.

Other than that, there won't be any other options.

Chapter 336 What is expected and inevitable

"All the elders of the cabinet gathered in Duke Qin's mansion to abolish Duke Qin's policy of generals and herdsmen, but Duke Qin refuted it, and the matter was temporarily deadlocked."

"However, Duke Qin handed over the power of Jingchao to the cabinet..."

"The purpose of Duke Qin's trip to Beijing this time is to destroy the martial arts academy in Lushan. According to the usual practice, Duke Qin should stay in the martial arts academy for about three days. The martial arts academy is heavily guarded and the management is extremely strict, and it is difficult for the slaves to inquire about the situation... ..."

In the Qianqing Palace, Cao Huachun knelt down on the ground, like a treasure, telling things that he himself felt a little terrified.

Monitor Duke Qin!

Just these four words gave him a chill. He had no doubt that Duke Qin would cut him off in front of all the court officials, including the queen mother in front of her who asked her to do all this. There will be half a person who dares to say a word for him, but will only applaud Qin Gong!

After listening to Cao Huachun's narration, the Empress Dowager Zhou frowned slightly, and asked with some expectation:

"A few days ago, the governors of the three sides returned to Beijing without orders, and finally left in Duke Qin's mansion angrily. Do you know what happened?"

"This……"

Cao Huachun shook his head: "Duke Qin's personal guards are all excellent experts, and the government of Duke Qin's mansion is also strictly managed, so it's hard for slaves to inquire useful information."

Queen Zhou asked again:

"Is it possible to win over the generals under Duke Qin's command?"

The topic made Cao Huachun more and more frightened. He looked up at the queen mother who was completely different from the past, and secretly groaned in his heart.

From the edge of Mongolia, the power of the Ming Dynasty was precarious, and the survival of the country was completely dependent on Qin Gong's thoughts.

In the past, the queen mother, who was almost indifferent to the world, has almost completely changed her person.

Not only did he teach the Son of Heaven to disperse his party and take away his assistants, which sounded frightening to test Duke Qin, but also asked him to do secret surveillance in Dongchang.

Moreover, in the name of the Empress Dowager, she has repeatedly summoned courtiers. Although she still restrained herself from interfering in state affairs, according to the development of this situation, it is estimated that the distance is not far away.

Now, he still wants to win over the generals under Duke Qin...

If it is possible, Cao Huachun really wants to tell the Queen Mother, you should die by yourself, don't drag me!

If Qin Gong's generals were so easy to win over, would it be the Empress Dowager's turn to end in person?

I'm afraid those gentry have already been drawn over!

However, as a domestic slave in the world, he has no choice. Duke Qin cleaned up the world, but Dongchang was the only one left out.

In the East Factory, even though it has cleaned itself, it only targeted those lawless people. What remained were the deep-rooted emperor's house slaves. Next, he didn't dare to move.

What's more, the late emperor's kindness to him was as great as a mountain, so how could he live up to the kindness of the late emperor's cultivation.

Even though he was on good terms with Qin Gonggong on weekdays, in the face of this big right and wrong, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk towards this dead end.

"Duke Qin's generals, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to win over..."

"And, if Duke Qin notices..."

In the end, Cao Huachun could only bite the bullet and speak out.

"Is it feasible, can it be done, how will you know if you don't try!"

Anxiety still lingered between the Empress Dowager Zhou's brows, but now, that deep worry seemed to have transformed into a heart-warming gloom!

"The slave obeys!"

Cao Huachun kowtowed and bowed, bit the bullet and took this order.

He and Wang Chengen silently exited the depressing Qianqing Palace.

The Empress Dowager Zhou sat upright in the palace, watching Cao Huachun and the two who left the palace, tightly holding the little emperor's hand, deep in her eyes, there seemed to be a flicker of madness.

"Mom, what's wrong with you, don't be like this, Brother Chun is afraid!"

The little emperor was obviously a little scared, so he mustered up the courage to speak.

"Brother Chun, don't be afraid, mother will protect you, mother will definitely protect you well!"

The Empress Dowager Zhou held the little emperor tightly in her arms, and the madness in her eyes became more and more intense.

"Mother, Uncle Li is very nice to me, why did you send someone to monitor Uncle Li, and..."

Before the little emperor finished speaking, he was interrupted by the Queen Mother Zhou!

The Empress Dowager Zhou stared at the little emperor, almost scolding:

"Brother Chun, remember, you are the emperor, you are the emperor of Daming!"

"He treats you well, it should be, it is necessary!"

"Mother, what's the matter with you, didn't you say that before? Mother, didn't you tell Brother Chun to listen to Uncle Li before?"

The little emperor was still puzzled.

"That was before!"

The Empress Dowager Zhou held onto the little emperor tightly: "Kowtow to the edge of Mongolia, he clearly knows that the capital is in danger, and the great Ming Dynasty is in turmoil, and the collapse is imminent!"

"But as a subject, he not only does not guard the king frequently, but also ignores him. He is at the side of Mongolia and sits and watches the Ming Dynasty's rivers and mountains tumble! Just sit and watch our mother's life hang by a thread!"

"Do you still think he is really good to you?"
