Chapter 422: Warring States Policy
To reorganize Lulongwei, Wang Xiao did not have enough time, so he mainly focused on a few major principles. For example, let the military households have enough food, strictly enforce military discipline, and implement daily training...
That night, he could only plant a small seed in their hearts and see if it could take root and sprout. The effect of letting them have enough to eat was actually more practical and more intuitive.
The attitudes of these people in this era changed as soon as they had food. In just three days, with three meals a day, they had enough to eat. Even if they were training hard, the military households were happy and their spirit took on a new look.
Fortunately, Wang Xiao has a lot of food in his hands...
Hu Yingming, the prefect of Yongping, came over every day to say hello and was as attentive as if he were a descendant of Wang Xiao.
In Wang Xiao's opinion, there is obviously something wrong with this stupid prefect. The military discipline of Yongping Prefecture is corrupt. He would not believe it if he said that Hu Yingming had no knowledge, but he just did not have the time to rectify these civil servants.
Unexpectedly, instead of looking for this old boy, he would always want to hit his gun. I don’t know if he is really stupid or pretending to be stupid?
At the same time, Hu Yingming was very ignorant and even asked without hesitation: "Master Marquis, where did you get so much food?"
At that time, Wang Xiao glanced at Hu Yingming with a rather unhappy look. Can I tell you that my food was stolen?
I have seen so many officials looking for trouble, but this is the first one.
"It's okay, don't ask around."
"Isn't your Majesty trying to imitate the Marquis to benefit the common people and military households?" Hu Yingming said with a smile: "It is rumored that His Majesty personally bestowed upon the Wang family the words 'loyalty and wealth'. It must have been paid for by the Marquis himself..."
My respect is as high as Mount Tai!"
Wang Xiao rolled his eyes and didn't know why his father was so boastful. Even Yongping Mansion knew that the Wang family had this calligraphy...
He really couldn't be bothered to answer this question.
At this time, they were standing by the Qinglong River, watching the military households running.
"Physical fitness is still a bit poor." Wang Xiao commented in his heart.
After a while, I saw the big man from Liao coming back first. He was not even panting. It was obvious that his lung capacity was quite good.
All the Liao people were dull and talkative. Only this big man knew etiquette. Wang Xiao was quite impressed with him, so he called him forward and asked: "I forgot to ask you that night, what is your name?"
The big man was flattered and responded quickly: "Young Meng Shuo is a native of Haizhou. He learned to shoot and stick when he was young. Later, his whole family was killed by slaves. The young one has been moved around, and now he only has a six-year-old orphan..."
Very excited.
For Meng Shuo, he couldn't understand and wasn't interested in the things Wang Xiao was talking about these days about democracy and civil rights.
But he greatly admired Wang Xiao's demeanor. This marquis was young, had a high position, and loved the people like his own son. He not only granted military status to the Liao people like himself, and designated a camp, he also distributed military pay so that the whole family could have enough to eat every day...
People who don't have enough to eat just want to be full. On the contrary, it is scholars like Hu Jingshi, Xia Xiangwei, and Sun Zhixin who have no worries about food, clothing, and leisure who like to ponder the ideas mentioned by Wang Xiao and have the enthusiasm to pursue so-called lofty ambitions.
Meng Shuo's most lofty ambition was to follow the Ming Dynasty and conquer the world. Although he was a member of the Liao Dynasty, he had the scholar's mentality of "you treat me as a countryman, and I will repay you as a countryman."
The reason why one should follow the Ming Master rather than go it alone is because if no one appreciates him, he will be a pariah for the rest of his life based on his background.
For example, Qin Chengye's fierce general Lin Shaoyuan was a refugee from Liaodong. Later, he was lucky enough to become Qin Chengye's servant. He fought bravely and was not afraid of death, and finally achieved what he is today.
All in all, in Meng Shuo's eyes, Wang Xiao was the Ming Zhu that he dreamed of.
But Wang Xiao only asked Fang Yongyong's name that night, but not his. Meng Shuo regretted this for three days, and in the dead of night, he often thought hard about where he was lacking.
When Wang Xiao asked, he revealed all his details.
Wang Xiao could feel his enthusiasm, but he took a step back and asked, "Have you read the book?"
"I've read it! The Three-Character Classic, Hundred Family Surnames, Thousand-Character Classic..." Meng Shuo reported the titles of a bunch of books that Wang Xiao had never read, and finally clasped his fists and said, "My favorite among them is "Warring States Policy"."
"Hmm... Yunwen Yunwu, that's good. You were born in Liaodong, do you know Jurchen language?"
"I know a little bit. The younger one also knows a little Mongolian."
Qin Xuance on the side frowned slightly and took two steps forward to block Wang Xiao's side.
Meng Shuo was stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a moment, he realized that he was worried that he was a slave builder.
Wang Xiao waved his hand, smiled gently, stepped forward and patted Meng Shuo on the shoulder, saying: "Very good, don't give up on yourself just because you are from Liao. I said, our Chu Dynasty is
A multi-ethnic country..."
Meng Shuo raised his head, his eyes a little sore.
With such a majestic and majestic appearance, he is indeed a master of the Ming Dynasty!
He made a fist with his big hand and planned to kneel down on one knee in front of Wang Xiao.
With just this shiver, maybe I can become the Marquis's servant...
"Enemy attack!"
Suddenly, someone shouted at the top of their lungs.
"Enemy attack! It's Jiannu coming! It's Jiannu..."
Fear quickly spread.
Lu Longwei's deputy Qianhu Lu Bang exclaimed, his knees went weak and he fell to the ground. He climbed up on the ground with his hands, shouting as he climbed: "Run!"
After crawling for a while, he finally remembered and quickly changed his words and shouted: "Take the Marquis and run away quickly..."
Hu Yingming turned pale with fright, twisted his neck and looked around, shouting: "Where is the honorable minister? Where is my son?"
After that, he kicked the servant on the buttocks and cursed: "What are you doing standing still? Find Jingshi quickly and run away with him..."
Before he finished speaking, there was a sudden scream.
Hu Yingming turned around and looked, his eyes widening.
But he saw Wang Xiao with a majestic look on his face, holding a long sword in his hand, with blood still dripping from the sword's edge.
On the ground, Lu Bang, who was trying to escape, was already paralyzed there, with a pool of blood underneath him...
"Anyone who disturbs the enemy's morale will be killed without mercy!" Wang Xiao shouted: "Line up to meet the enemy!"
"Form up! Anyone who dares to take a step back will be killed without mercy!"
Orders were passed down one after another, and the three thousand Lulong Guards began to form a formation; the two thousand guards were fully armed and mounted their horses and filed out...
Meng Shuo failed to kneel down this time, and felt very regretful, but now that he had joined the military, he planned to abide by orders, so he turned around neatly and ran towards his team.
"You will temporarily take over the position of Deputy Qianhu." Wang Xiao said, leaning over Lu Bang and untying a sign from Lu Bang's waist, and threw it over casually.
Meng Shuo subconsciously stretched out his hand to take it, and was stunned in disbelief. He cupped his fists and was about to kneel down: "Xie Hou..."
"Hurry up and get in formation!"
"yes!"
With a loud shout, the big Han man was already ten steps away.
Wang Xiao turned his head again and saw a long black line appearing between heaven and earth.
