The Soul of the Han Dynasty in the Late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 130
Of course, it is impossible for the soldiers of the "Red Banner Army" to write with a brush, and Huang Han never thought of cultivating calligraphers.

Seeing that the last country of the Han people has come to the end of the country, calligraphers have a bird.

Huang Han is a pragmatist, he only requires his subordinates to be able to write, so that others can understand what they write.

In the past, the family members in Jiulitai Village used the pencils processed by carpenters to write. When they came to Zunhua, Huang Han asked the carpenters in the city to make [-] pencils.

Making pencils is not complicated at all. There are lead, isinglass for making bows and arrows, wood, and many carpenters. Huang Han can do this little personal work with a single sentence.

There are more than 1 Jiannu cavalry cruising outside the city of Zunhua, and it is impossible for the soldiers of the "Red Banner Army" to leave the city to fight fiercely. Huang Han used this time to give lessons to the soldiers every day, discussing the gains and losses of these days with everyone, with the only purpose of cultivating officers.

Why do illiterate famous generals emerge in endlessly in the ranks of the barbarians?

That's because these people have fought wars since they were young, and they were lucky enough to survive every battle. Whether they experienced failure or won their opponents, they would have accumulated a lot of experience. Over time, some talented illiterates have transformed into famous generals.

When the Ming army fought with Jiannu, most of them were annihilated by the enemy. There were fewer veterans who escaped, and their accumulated experience went with the wind.

The lucky recruits finally became veterans, and they were not sure that they would die in another war of annihilating Jiannu. As a result, one of the famous generals in the Ming army died and one had no successors.

The "Red Banner Army" fought continuously, and every casualty was controllable. The wounded soldiers were well treated, and the survival rate was extremely high.

Therefore, many soldiers have accumulated a lot of experience in battle. Huang Han will tell them battle examples, the art of war, and teach them arithmetic and composition. In time, the "Red Banner Army" will surely shine brightly.

Hundreds of thousands of veterans who were at odds with Jiannu and were influenced by nationalist education will serve as generals. Even if Huang Han's luck is bad and he dies in a battle, the seeds of these generals will take root and germinate, and finally the roots will flourish. .

With so many generals in Ming Dynasty, it will be much better than in history, maybe it can prevent the barbarians from entering the pass and harming the Chinese civilization for more than two hundred years.

The Ming army made a feint with a shot, and the Jin army ambushed [-] to [-] soldiers, avoiding the tragedy of the enemy's treachery that led to the destruction of the city. After this case, the Zunhua generals respected Huang Han like a god.

Of course, Liu Zhilun thinks highly of Huang Han and the "Red Banner Army". He likes to learn and always thinks that he can train a team like the "Red Banner Army". There is only one purpose - to learn from the scriptures.

Everyone knows Liu Zhilun, the highest official in Zunhua "Red Banner Army". Since he often comes to the South Gate, Huang Han doesn't practice those vain rituals. Liu Zhilun can freely see everything he wants to see in the "Red Banner Army" camp.

On this day, Liu Zhilun saw that Huang Han actually set up a black wooden board in Wengcheng, Nanmen, and wrote and drew on it with a thin stick made of lime. Five or six hundred "Red Banner Army" soldiers sat cross-legged on the ground, He still held a small wooden stick in his hand and made gestures on the small book.

In Wengcheng, only Huang Han's voice was clearly distinguishable, and the soldiers listening to the class were all engrossed, and only when Huang Han began to tell a story would they burst into laughter.

Liu Zhilun walked up to a soldier of the "Red Banner Army" lightly. He asked the soldier's book in his hands, and he was surprised, and asked, "You wrote all these characters? Do you know these characters? Do you understand the meaning of these characters?" ?”

The soldier proudly said: "Master, the young one already knows 240 six characters, can write silently, understand the meaning of the words, and the young one can also form words and make sentences."

Liu Zhilun was even more surprised, so it seems that there are no illiterate people in the "Red Banner Army"?

He picked up the soldier's pencil and tried to write three or five words in the notebook, then nodded with a smile.He is a poor scholar who has studied hard for more than ten years in a cold window. How could he not know that reading and writing are very expensive, and how much paper and ink will be saved by using this wooden stick to write now?
Reading has become cheaper. Wouldn't it lighten the burden on many poor students, and it is naturally beneficial for the education of many scholars in Ming Dynasty.

Liu Zhilun asked the soldier, "Do you usually use this small wooden stick to write?"

"My lord, this is not a small wooden stick, but a pencil. There is a thin lead stick inside. It is much more convenient to write with a pencil than with a brush. Just take it out of your pocket and you can write without getting your hands black. .”

"Pencil, it's good, it's really good, it's good news for poor students."

At this time, Huang Han had already seen Liu Zhilun. He did not rush to interrupt the class, but bowed his hands to Liu Zhilun from a distance as a salute, and continued to talk about the multiplication formula of the last teaching content of the day.

Liu Zhilun didn't care at all, he stood aside and listened to the class with great interest, and found that the sound transmission effect of this Wengcheng was too good for a large class.

Although he was standing behind hundreds of people, Huang Han's voice was still heard clearly, "Three seven 21, four seven 28..."

Huang Han was actually teaching a group of big soldiers the formulas of multiplication. These soldiers also listened with great interest, and followed Huang Han to read it eloquently.

If it weren't for seeing the person in front of you, it would make people think that you came to a certain academy or private school, but which private school would have such a big teaching scene?

After Huang Han finished talking about today's content, assigned homework and announced the end of get out of class, Song Pengfei shouted: "Everyone stand up."

Hundreds of people stood up in unison, bowed to Huang Han and said in unison: "Respectfully send off the master."

Liu Zhilun was shocked again. The hundreds of people were not only Huang Han's subordinates and servants, but also his disciples. Of course, Liu Zhilun has a deep understanding of what the relationship between master and apprentice means in this era.

He thought to himself: No wonder the "Red Banner Army" can use their arms like fingers.This method of teaching the big soldiers to read is good. It not only cultivates talents, but also enhances loyalty and cohesion. I can also follow suit.

Liu Zhilun greeted Huang Han with a smile and complimented him: "General Huang leading troops like this is really fresh. Given time, the 'Red Banner Army' will definitely be the leading civilized division in Ming Dynasty."

Huang Han said humbly: "Master Liu is too much for his praise, he is a low-ranking class. What he teaches is just a small way, and he can't be admitted to the elegant hall."

Liu Zhilun smiled and did not comment. He earned his fame by familiarizing himself with the Four Books and Five Classics. How could he not know that the content of Huang Han's teaching was not related to the imperial examination? Of course it is not the right way.

He talked about the topic: "General Huang, the Jian slaves outside the city have retreated again, and there are almost no tartars transporting supplies. I think they may really leave this time."
