Chapter 10 Liu Chan's Ambition

The next morning.

Liu Chan got up early.

First, he did a simple exercise on the school field of the Young Master's Mansion, and then drank a bowl of meat and vegetable soup happily.

Of course, it is said to be meat and vegetable soup, but in fact there is very little meat and more vegetable porridge.

The conquest in Guanzhong consumed countless food and meat. Originally, the diet of the Prince's Mansion was the same, but how would it be effective if it was not up and down?

Liu Chan cut his diet and set an example.

This matter has been approved by Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang and many others.

The favorability of civil servants and military generals, as well as their own prestige, are all accumulated through these trivial things.

Of course, it is impossible to eat without meat, especially since he is now in the stage of growing his body, so Liu Chan often uses the excuse of military training to go out hunting.

In this era, the mountains and forests are all owned by the high-ranking people, and ordinary people have no right to enter the mountains to cut firewood and hunt, so wild resources are relatively abundant.

Liu Chan's diet was not affected too much. On the contrary, because he often went out to hunt, he often brought the prey back to the prince's mansion, made wine and vegetables and sent them to the Chengdu government office. Unknowingly, he won the favor of Chengdu officials through eating and drinking.

However, his kind of restraint is subtle and silent. Compared with Liu Bei's ability to make Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong die, his rank of restraint is still too low.

"My lord, this is sent to you by the lady of the Zhang family."

Lan Niang?

"Why don't you see Lan Niang?"

"My lord, the lady of the Zhang family delivered these things to the slaves and left straight away."

They are all family members, and they are still so polite.

If it had been off Yinping, it would have rushed in long ago.

Liu Chan opened the bag in the hands of the steward Liu Ji, and there was a set of spring clothes and a new sachet inside.

Smelling the smell of the sachet lightly, he smiled and tied the sachet around his waist.

"Take this dress to my room."

It seems that when weaving clothes for Zhang Fei, he also wove a set for him, but if he didn't tell me, maybe the spring clothes wouldn't be delivered to him.

Liu Chan rubbed his nose, and after the Battle of Hanzhong this year is over, and Xuande becomes King of Hanzhong, he can organize the marriage of his eldest son.

Although he is only 12 years old now, he is still young, but this young age is compared with later generations. Lan Niang is two years older than him. Although he is only 14 years old, in this era where the average life expectancy is less than 30 years old, 14 years old is actually Already the legal age for marriage.

Years of wars have depleted the population. In the Western Han Dynasty, girls were required to get married before the age of 15.

"Hanshu·Huidi Ji" contains: "Women who do not marry from the age of [-] to [-] will be counted five times." "Five counts" means five times the tax.

In the Han Dynasty, no matter the royal family or the folk, early marriage was very common.

Emperor Han Wen gave birth to Emperor Han Jing at the age of 15, so the age of marriage is estimated to be even younger.

And "Book of the Later Han Dynasty Lingdi Ji": "In April of the fourth year of Jianning, Kuichou, the nobleman Song was made the queen." Lingdi came to the throne at the age of 12 in the first year of Jianning, and married at the age of 15 in the fourth year of Jianning.

For example, the inscription on the fifteenth volume of "Li Shi" inscribed in the Han, Wei and Jin Dynasties "Jin Guangyan's Mother Xu's Records" inscription: "Eighteen years old, married Xu's wife." "Biography": "There are four out of ten years, holding a dustpan in the Cao family."

Even more exaggerated is the "Hanshu·Shangguan Queen's Biography": "I summoned Annu to be Jieyu... After a month, she was established as a queen at the age of six."

Empress Shangguan of Emperor Han Zhao was only six years old when she got married!There is no smallest, only smaller!

And when it comes to the Three Kingdoms, it's even more exaggerated!

It is not uncommon among the people to be a father at thirteen and a master at thirty.

Even if you don't marry when you reach the age, the government will force you to marry.

"Son."

Guan Xing and Zhang Bao came together wearing strong clothes.

"My lord, is there a regulation for the martial arts hall?"

Zhang Bao is a short-tempered person, he just bowed to Liu Chan, and couldn't help but say what he cared most about.

"More haste less speed."

Liu Chan went to the weapon rack and pulled out a ring-shoudao.

The ring knife in his hand is one meter long, with a metal ring at the end of the handle, which can play a role in balancing weight, and can be hung with a rope to hold it stably, and can also be used to hang ornaments and tassels.

This ring head knife is extremely sharp, and it is processed by a hundred steelmaking processes.The simple understanding of the steelmaking process is that the smelted iron block or high-carbon fried steel is continuously heated, folded and forged to remove oxide impurities, carburize, and finally obtain a blade.

It is definitely bullshit to say that it is cutting iron like mud, but it should be no problem to cut an unarmored soldier in half with one knife.

"What is the meaning of this, son?"

The brother-in-law had a puzzled look on his face.

Guan Xing pulled the corner of Zhang Bao's clothes at the side, and said with a smile: "If you are just recruiting some people, of course you don't need to prepare, but your ambition is as high as nine days, so you should think twice before acting."

"Dare to ask the son's ambition? Talk about the wish of the martial arts hall?"

"My ambition is the same as my father's ambition. I will help the Han family and rule the world! As for the wish of the martial arts hall, it is naturally prepared for war. To win the battle is the wish of the martial arts hall. My brother is a general. , do you know how to win on the battlefield?"

"Soldiers use their lives, serve the generals without fear of death, and work hard for the politicians, and they can win!"

Zhang Bao has also read some books.

"Have you read "The Art of War by Sun Tzu?"

"I have read the book of war."

Although his Zhang family is not a family of scriptures, his father Zhang Fei was a student, and his mother Xiahou was even proficient in poetry and books. To say that he is illiterate is to scold him.

He just doesn't want to become a Ph.D. in classics, and he still has books to read.

"I studied "Sun Tzu's Art of War" and came to some shallow insights. If you want to win on the battlefield, you must prepare and plan before the battle and during the war."

Liu Chan re-sheathed the ring head knife in his hand and put it back on the rack.

"Before the war, overall planning of national strength, troop training, general selection, and logistics are all crucial."

The "Five Things" are "Tao, Heaven, Earth, General, and Law". "Seven Strategies" means "Which master has the right way? Which general has the ability? Which one will win the world? Which one will act the law? Which one will be stronger in the army? Which one will practice with soldiers? Which one will be clear about rewards and punishments?" The five things and seven strategies are headed by "Tao".

"Those who make the people and the superiors agree. To win a war, you must first win the support of the people. For war, you must know yourself and the enemy. "Five things are based on the classics, and the school uses them to calculate and ask for their feelings." With the assurance of victory , to be able to raise troops to fight.”

Guan Xing was thoughtful, while Zhang Bao was listening carefully to Liu Chan's speech.

"According to the needs of the battlefield situation: when the troops move quickly, they are like a whirling wind; when they march calmly, they are like a forest slowly unfolding; Day; when the army is dispatched, it is like thunder. If you can train such an army, can you not win the battle?"

"The selection of generals and logistics are even more knowledgeable."

As Liu Chan's closest team member now, he naturally wants to implement his vision of the martial arts hall through Guan Xing and Zhang Bao.

Lecture hall?
No!It is the Whampoa Military Academy of the Three Kingdoms!
He, Liu Chan, is going to be the principal!
　The contract has been signed and the status will be changed soon.
