Wu Nian smiled and nodded. It would be too difficult for these generals to make a fuss.

This paper is really about answering questions.

The two garrison households in Guangyang Prefecture were chosen. Guangyang Prefecture borders Mongolia and Yuan in the north and Goguryeo in the east.

Although Meng Yuan currently has 90,000 households in Huanglong Prefecture, he may not have the energy to attack Guangyang Prefecture again.

Although Goguryeo's vitality is currently severely weakened, he estimates that Goguryeo will not dare to cross the Yalu River again.

But what if?

The international situation and the battlefield situation are changing rapidly. What if the powerful enemy on the grassland to the west of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty allied with the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty?

That way Meng Yuan would have more energy to spare.

Regardless of whether the enemy is capable of attacking or not, the only way to go is to be capable of defending yourself.

Prepare for a rainy day.

Since it is to defend Guangyang Mansion, it is naturally a related question. The question on the paper is not what formation to put up when facing the enemy.

How to set up camp, how to train troops and other basic issues.

But there are several ferries on the Yalu River that can be used to cross the river on a large scale. If the Meng Yuan came to fight for Guangyang Prefecture, how many roads would there be, and how many dangerous places on the road would be fought over by military strategists?

How much food does a soldier with ten thousand households need to consume in a year?

How much food will be consumed by one hundred thousand soldiers and civilians in a year?

Wait for the question.

All seven thousand households know what this time means. They should also have studied the defense issues against Guangyang Mansion.

Whoever is more prepared will be able to guard ten thousand households. He will become a general who is second only to the school captain and can control the elite soldiers of ten thousand households.

fair.

However, the paper was fair, but after reading it, the seven thousand households felt uneasy. There were only two people in the position, but there were seven competitors.

There must be five people who fail.

They don't know if they can have the last laugh.

After that, no one spoke anymore. Wu Nian asked his soldiers to bring him a cup of tea, and he drank the tea and watched.

The soldiers remained motionless.

Seven people worked hard to answer the questions.

This process lasted for an hour. Wu Nian also went to the toilet because of urgency to urinate.

After the last person put down his pen, Wu Nian asked his soldiers to collect all the papers and correct them on the spot with a red pen. After correcting everyone's papers, Wu Nian frowned.

The seven thousand households did not dare to sit down. They stood in two rows and looked at Wu Nian, feeling very nervous.

This is a slight difference and a huge difference.

After a while, Wu Nian's brows relaxed, he stood up, arranged the papers on a desk, and invited thousands of households to come and watch.

"I corrected this. Three of the seven of you got all the answers correct."

Seven people from Qianhu immediately gathered around, bent down, and glanced at the paper. Some were ashamed, while others looked happy.

They competed to guard ten thousand households in Guangyang Mansion, but they even missed or made mistakes in basic things. The four people who failed did not complain at all.

Soon, everyone looked at each other. There were only two positions, but there were three people who answered all the questions correctly.

What to do?

Soon, everyone thought of an answer.

Could it be a competition?

However, martial arts competitions are not very fair. The defending army relies on the terrain and city for defense, which has little to do with personal martial arts.

So the general used this elaborate method and selected ten thousand households to be guarded.

The thousands of households raised their heads and looked at Wu Nian.

Wu Nian had already had an idea and said to the three thousand households: "He Jinping, Zheng Shuang, Qin Yong. You all take off your battle jackets."

Everyone was stunned, what are you doing taking off your clothes?

However, the military orders were overwhelming, and the three of them responded without hesitation, then reached out and untied their battle jackets, revealing their muscular bodies.

Soon, everyone understood why.

Normal people would have no scars on their chests and abdomens. But their chests and abdomens would have marks from swords, guns, swords and halberds.

"Although it's not very fair, I have no other choice. Let's decide the outcome based on the number of wounds on your front."

Wu Nian came to the three of them and counted the number of wounds. He sighed: "He Jinping, Qin Yong, I will use you as a guard for ten thousand households to guard Guangyang Mansion."

"The situation here is special. Please pay attention to communicating with the two captains of the Yalu River Navy to coordinate defense."

"yes."

He Jinping and Qin Yong showed joy on their faces, bent down and cupped their fists.

The other five people saw that the matter had been settled, but they were not dissatisfied at all. They were all convinced.

The topics are all the same.

Wounds are merit.

Even Zheng Shuang, who answered all the questions correctly, did not complain at all.

Wu Nian smiled and nodded, turned around and sat down on the main seat. He Jinping, Zheng Shuang, and Qin Yong put on their war jackets to cover the wounds on their chests.

Wu Nian looked up at them. The five people who were not selected were more or less disappointed.

"Hehehe." Wu Nian laughed.

The thousands of households raised their heads and looked at Wu Nian in surprise, wondering why the general was laughing.

Of course they didn't think Wu Nian would laugh at them.

Or despise them.

But at this time, Wu Nian laughed, which was indeed strange.

Wu Nian did not talk to them. After laughing, he said: "You five, don't be depressed or disappointed."

"You are all outstanding talents. Your outstanding military exploits and your answers just now prove this."

"Let you become captains and go out to fight the Mongols. I still have some doubts. But let you serve as garrison captains. You will definitely be qualified to guard dangerous places and cities."

Having said this, Wu Nian raised his head, his eyes sparkling, and looked at everyone with undisguised admiration.

Wu Nian's appreciation cheered up the seven of them, held their heads high and felt very honored.

The sparkle in Wu Nian's eyes gradually faded, and with a smile on his face, he said: "Including the two garrison captains in Guangyang Mansion, there are currently eight. Two in each mansion."

"And there are only four mansions in Liaodong? Isn't there another Huanglong mansion?"

The seven people were stunned for a moment, and then the five people who were defeated suddenly had their morale boosted, showing their determination to make progress. That's right. Wouldn't it be enough to defeat Huanglong Mansion?

There are five prefectures and thirty-two cities in Liaodong, and there will be ten troops to guard ten thousand households.

Seeing that they had understood, Wu Nian's smile became even brighter. He said, "Besides, are there only five Liaodong prefectures in the northeast?"

"I am now the enemy of both Goguryeo and Mongolian people."

"Ignore the Mongolian, Yuan and Goguryeo side for now, I just want to annihilate them. Then set up the four Han prefectures. Take the names of the four Han prefectures that were set up when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty pacified it."

"In this way, wouldn't there be eight more official positions of garrison captain?"

"So, for those of you who are not selected, there is no need to be depressed or disappointed. As long as you don't slack off and continue to perform your duties, you will be able to become a guard of ten thousand households sooner or later."

"Don't be arrogant and complacent if you are fooled. If anyone is lax and ignores precautions, I will show mercy, but military law does not show mercy."
