271 Military University Entrance Exam (Part 1)
It doesn't matter whether Shangguan Qi believes it or not. Whether he believes it or not, the historical trend is vast, and those who follow it will prosper and those who go against it will perish. The progress of history always requires the blood of some opponents to sacrifice. Suning does not oppose violent revolution or violent reform. Although killing is a crime for those "saints", so what? Didn't the Northern Song Dynasty, which was devoted to advocating benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom and trustworthiness, fall under the steel knife?
The existence of a military university is a symbol. Its practical significance is as important and serious as its symbolic significance. The military university stands upright in the northwest of the capital of the Tang Dynasty, protecting the civilization and prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. The enemies of the Tang Dynasty are in the west and north. The existence of the military university is to declare to the whole world that military university students are the most powerful barrier of the Tang Dynasty! Any foreign race who yearns for the wealth of the Central Plains must first pass this level!
During the six days, Suning led his work team to travel around and did not return home for six consecutive days. He ate the food he delivered when he was hungry, drank the clear river water when he was thirsty, and slept in the tent when he was tired, and still worked to measure when he woke up. Because Suning's calculation method was much higher than that of this era, Suning became an indispensable member of the surveying and mapping work group. Those old scholars were extremely surprised by Suning's calculation ability and did not have to calculate the calculation of a pen and a piece of paper to write and draw accurate numbers...
However, time was urgent and work was busy. They didn't have much time to ask Suning for advice on these things. They were busy and busy, and finally completed all the work on the afternoon of the seventh day, and all the costs of the first exam were calculated. They immediately passed the horse to Chang'an and handed it to His Majesty Li Er and Menxia Province for review, gave it a reply as soon as possible, and started running immediately. There was not much time left.
After completing the work, Suning urgently improved the content of the second and third exams, and ordered to prepare as soon as possible. In order to gain time, the time interval between the second and third exams was changed to three days, so that everyone could prepare time. The whole city immediately informed. The Military University will officially hold the first military university entrance examination tomorrow morning, on June 18, the fifth year of Zhenguan, the Tang Dynasty. All applicants will immediately come to Zhuquemen to collect the required certificates for the examination, which contains the place you want to go and the designated time.
As soon as the news came out, Chang'an was shocked. Tens of thousands of candidates were dispatched. In Chang'an, they gathered relatives and friends or fellow villagers to drink and celebrate. They wished to enter the military university. Although the admission rate was terrible. Only one person could enter the 100 people, but this was even more a nude challenge, a nude battle! It aroused the battle in their hearts!
That night, due to special reasons, His Majesty Li Er announced the temporary lifting of the curfew, but Wu Hou still needs to inspect the streets. As soon as the news came out, the atmosphere in Chang'an City became even more lively. Almost every restaurant with a restaurant was filled with diners. Whether you were confident of being admitted to the military university, everyone was wishing for them to enter the military university. But is it really possible? Will their doing this today become a joke after tomorrow?
His Majesty Li Er didn't know, so he asked Suning: "Suning, tell me, today they are so lively and celebrated, have they never considered the number of admissions for one hundred people? Or are they each of them confident that they can enter a military university? If this is the case, it would be too sirable, right? What did they regard the military university as?"
Suning smiled and returned: "Your Majesty, what would you do if you were one of them?"
His Majesty Li Er was stunned and didn't know how to answer. Suning said: "Everyone doesn't want unlucky things to happen to them. It is human nature to seek profit and avoid harm. They would rather believe that one of the thousand people is not willing to believe that they are not destined to be with the quota of that thousand people. Everyone is like this. If I were among them, I would also drink and have fun like them. Of course, if they can't get together at the designated location tomorrow, they will be completely disqualified from the examination and expelled! The Tang Dynasty does not need such an officer."
His Majesty Li Er was stunned again, then laughed loudly, then pointed at Suning and said, "Remember, call me principal in private occasions!" After that, His Majesty Li Er laughed and turned away, leaving, leaving Suning to secretly complaining about this narcissist, and the level of winning people's hearts reached its peak. Oh, is it good or bad to give him this method? Is there any conflict with his ultimate goal?
I don’t know, I don’t know!
Suning shook his head and left the palace. There was no curfew tonight, and there was no need to open a note. It was not dark yet. The staff and the veteran generals should be ready. Tonight, the veteran generals and those staff were all placed in Su Dingfang's uninhabited Wuyi Hou Su Mansion. The rooms were enough and the place was spacious. In the future, Su Dingfang's Wuyi Hou Su Mansion was the examination general headquarters. All orders and decisions will be completed here. There are too many important things in the Sanyuan Hou Su Mansion and cannot be disclosed at present.
When they arrived at Wuyi Hou Su Mansion, the veteran generals and staff had all arrived, and they were all excited because they would be witnesses and participants in a period of history. They would participate in this historic event and they would witness the occurrence of a miracle with their own eyes!
"Everyone, tomorrow is the first day of the entrance examination for the Tang Military University, and it is also the day of the first examination. Tomorrow is destined to be recorded in the history books of the Tang Dynasty. You must remember that everything we do tomorrow will have a profound impact on the future of the Tang Dynasty! Everything we do will make future generations remember us because it was us who changed all this! Now, Suning, as the priest of the Tang Military University, assigns all the responsibilities of all the personnel participating in the examination. Everyone must unite and work together..."
Suning opened the task allocation table and allocated all the characters one by one. The examination teams of ten test sites were respectively 20 generals as chief and deputy generals, and then staff from the Military University were the main executors. In addition, 3,000 guards and 2,000 left guards were mobilized to participate in the matter and allocate them. Each test site had 500 iron cavalry responsible for security defense and specific order maintenance. When the candidates ran long distance, the iron cavalry had to ride horses to observe from both sides. Once they found that there were those who could not stand the way out, they would confiscate their examination certificates and let them leave.
At the same time, we should pay attention to whether there are frauds. Although this is not a literati exam, it is still difficult to determine whether there are bold people who will cheat in various ways. As the general manager, all generals should set an example and lead the army to monitor the entire process. No omissions are allowed. Ensure fairness and the safety of all candidates is the most important thing.
In addition, other staff members must prepare a certain amount of food and water at each midpoint, that is, the resting place after crossing the river. Although they have already brought their own food and water, it is inevitable that the food and water will be lost during the running process. Therefore, the logistics support must be done well, so that these candidates cannot withdraw because they are hungry, which is a pity.
During the entire examination, the five hundred cavalry cannot be kept away and must be protected. Although the number of 500 cavalry is smaller than that of 10,000 candidates, as long as it is used properly, 500 cavalry can fully bear the inspection of these people, especially their speed is not fast, and the speed of horses walking can be compared with their running. The cavalry must take responsibility. Once the candidates leave the venue but do not confiscate the famous brand, the cavalry must be held accountable and responsible for the general.
Finally, Suning raised his wine glass and clinked his glasses with everyone, wishing a great success in tomorrow's exam, congratulations on the successful establishment of the Tang Military University, and congratulations on the military spirit of Shangwu Datang forever.
At this moment, as the commander-in-chief of the 5,000 Iron Cavalry who took the exam this time, Su Dingfang was having a serious conversation with Xue Rengui in his study...
"Rengui, be honest, did you do it? In fact, my teacher thinks it is what you do. Who else can do this except you? In fact, even if you do it, you won't blame you. You will have to take the exam tomorrow. It's very difficult. I don't know if you can do it. You can't let your teacher lose face. If you can't pass, then my teacher will lose face. Oh, did you do it? Tell me!" Su Dingfang looked serious.
Xue Rengui looked panicked: "Master, this, this tomorrow's exam, although the disciple does not know the specific content, but he is confident that he can pass the exam and become a member of the Tang Military University. He will never let his master down or lose face. Master, believe in the disciple!"
Su Dingfang nodded and stretched out his hand to pat Xue Rengui on the shoulder: "Well, I believe in you, you will not let down the training you have taught you for a month. That exam is regarded as a test, testing whether you are qualified to be a general. You must know that it is easy to get a thousand troops, but it is hard to find a general! Alas, Rengui, did you say this? You won't blame you for speaking out as a teacher!"
Xue Rengui still looked panicked: "The disciple understands, the disciple understands, the disciple will not let down the master's upbringing for a month. This, this matter, Master, in fact, this is an accident, a very unexpected accident. The disciple just accidentally, just, that, ah, Master, don't want this, Master, don't want this, ah, ah! Ah..."
Su Dingfang's desk was filled with the meal that Qin Ziyue made by herself, and was preparing to make supper for Su Dingfang. However, today Su Dingfang came to the study and was shocked to find that the meal had disappeared without a trace. Xue Rengui, who came in, had some marks of unwiped soup at the corner of his mouth... This directly caused Xue Rengui's body to be scarred and made a lot of jokes...
The night was very uneasy, because there was no curfew, and the noise of the entire Chang'an City did not disappear until the early morning. However, at this time, there were only two or three hours left before the time when the exam began. Some candidates who were clear-headed and fell asleep early were ready to get up and start preparing. They also received the news that this exam would be very difficult and very tired, so they would take a break early and nourish their spirits. As for those who were drunk all night, hahaha...
Chen time starts at 7 a.m. and ends at 9 a.m. Suning stipulates that the standard collection time is 4 a.m., that is, 8 a.m., if it exceeds 8 a.m., it is considered disqualification. Suning has clearly stated in yesterday's report meeting and the candidate's examination permit that there is no possibility of compatibility. Suning believes that after this night's carnival, first of all, in terms of time, the exam qualifications of unknown people can be cancelled, and a beautiful showdown can be achieved.
Chapter completed!
