The Maojin knife from the late Jin Dynasty

Chapter 68 Establishing a Mongolian School
Upon hearing the choice given by Liu Tai, these women were a little shocked, and then inevitably a little doubtful. Soon their eyes unnaturally revealed a little doubt.

The woman said with some disbelief, "The general wants us to enlighten children?!"

"That's understandable!" Liu Tai nodded in approval, and then said, "Tell me your decision first."

"If you become Mr. Enlightenment, then... you really don't have to be a slave or a concubine?" The woman said with a bit of confusion.

"This Mengxue is in my name. If anyone wants to take you as a concubine, just give me my name! I think my name is enough in Taishan County, even if it's far away."

When Liu Tai said this, he became a little impatient and said, "You have made a decision on what decision to make."

After hearing Liu Tai's words, these women still looked at Liu Tai blankly.

Although they did read books, they never thought that they could lead a different life through reading.

At this moment, the choice of life was placed in front of them, but they, who had never made a choice before, were at a loss.

After all, this choice really determines their future destiny, but they have never had a life that can determine their own.

"We are willing to obey the general's orders!" The woman replied decisively to Liu Tai.

"Can you represent them?" Liu Tai glanced at the woman curiously and said, "What's your name?"

"Little Miss Xu." The woman replied respectfully to Liu Tai.

"From now on, you will be the first female gentleman, responsible for managing these young ladies." Liu Tai said to Mrs. Xu,

"I promise you to let one woman leave Mengxue every month unconditionally. Where they go after they leave, they may be given as slaves or concubines, or they may become dancers for people's entertainment. This right is in your hands!"

Liu Tai smiled at Mrs. Xu as he spoke, his expression more or less conniving.

"Young lady, you must use this right carefully!" Mrs. Xu said cautiously after hearing Liu Tai's words.

"Huh?" When Liu Tai heard Xu's words, he couldn't help but frowned and said, "I want to complete the mission of educating students!"

"The little girl will definitely complete the mission assigned by the general!" Xu said seriously.

"Go down! If you need anything, ask the Military Supplies Department. After a while, children will be sent over!" Liu Tai said,

"Your first step is to teach the children to read, and the second is to enlighten the children in the two subjects of "Han Shu" and arithmetic. As for the other things you can solve by yourself during the teaching process, I will not interfere!

By the way, I will also arrange for veterans to teach children about military formations, but you are not the only ones who have teaching tasks. "

"Yes!" Mrs. Xu replied seriously after hearing Liu Tai's words.

Liu Tai asked people to send them back, and then allocated some materials and manpower to build an elementary school for them.

Liu Tai's behavior was naturally known to Chu Hui.

Chu Hui did not stop Liu Tai from building an elementary school, but even so, Chu Hui took the initiative to approach Liu Tai.

Because the list of supplies issued by Liu Tai was too large, even if Liu Tai approved these supplies, when it came time for Chu Hui to implement them, Chu Hui still had considerable objections.

Even if Chu Hui knew that Liu Tai had overthrown the Taishan County family and gained a lot of food and wealth.

Liu Tai did not enjoy it himself but invested all of it in the development of Taishan County, from the equipment and weapons of the soldiers to the guarantee of food rations for the people, everything was used for business.

However, new food has not yet been cultivated. How can there be any reason to spend money so lavishly? Do you really think that these food and wealth are brought by strong winds?
The resources themselves are limited. Instead of investing them here, whether it is investing in the construction of Taishan City or the armor on the soldiers, there is always a place to invest.

In contrast, if you invest money in primary education, even if these children achieve success in their studies, when will that happen?

And Chu Hui, who was born in an aristocratic family, felt a little worried when he saw Liu Tai allocating these resources to the bottom.

Therefore, when this part of the expenditure needed to be arranged by Chu Hui, Chu Hui came to Liu Tai with a list of supplies.

"The general wants to let elementary school children come to study, and we also have to take care of these children's lunch and dinner?!" Chu Hui said.

"Yeah!" Liu Tai nodded and said, "Originally I wanted to take care of three meals a day like the soldiers, but it felt a bit luxurious. At least until the next wave of food has not been cultivated, I still let the children have two meals. enough."

"You also know how to save!" When Chu Hui heard Liu Tai's words, he wanted to complain in his heart, but he didn't know where to start.

Chu Hui calmed down and said: "I know that the general has a desire to educate, but now we are in Mount Tai, the place where the four battles took place.

According to your prediction, Gou Xi will definitely play against us this year. Because of this, I think we should work hard to prepare for the battle.

As for education, let's wait until we defeat Gou Xi. After all, it will take at least ten years for the children of Mengxue to grow up! "

Liu Tai nodded to Chu Hui after hearing Chu Hui's persuasion.

After all, engaging in education at this time is not the right choice no matter how you think about it, or in other words, normal people would not invest in education at this time.

Liu Taize said, "I know what you mean, but this time the elementary school is not open to everyone.

Instead, we enter the elementary school run by the soldiers under our command, so that they can safely leave their children in the school.

At the same time, we will also inform the soldiers that if they unfortunately die on the battlefield, their widows can continue to enjoy the military land they left behind.

If someone encroaches on their family's land, the children in elementary school can directly tell the teacher and then tell me.

The military land belonging to them will be directly transferred to their children's names after their children join the army. "

Liu Tai took a deep breath and continued: "We just want to tell them, don't be afraid of sacrifice on the battlefield. Even if they die, as long as their sons are in the elementary school I established, the land they worked hard to earn will be retained by them. In my son’s hands.”

When Chu Hui heard Liu Tai's words, he became silent for a while.To be honest, he could see that Liu Tai's order actually did not cover the entire army, but more of the local soldiers in Mount Tai who had joined Liu Tai's army.

It's not that Liu Tai's veterans can't enjoy this reward, but the veterans haven't taken root in Mount Tai yet. Most of them have just taken concubines under Liu Tai's organization. Even if they buy one, get one free, it won't be possible for at least a few months. Children appear at any time.

Therefore, the people who really benefit from this policy are the local soldiers in Mount Tai. They send their children here to receive education, ensuring the inheritance of their land, so that they can fight without worries on the battlefield.

Of course, he was indeed implicitly adding benefits to the local Taishan soldiers and strengthening their fighting will.

After all, for the veterans who have been following him, they have followed him all the way to victory, and the discounts he gives are generous and he does not obviously take care of the Taishan people.

Therefore, even if these veterans regret that they did not marry and have children earlier, they will not blame Liu Tai for his policy problems. Instead, they think Liu Tai is kind. After all, who would value the soldiers at the bottom as much as Liu Tai does!

But those Taishan soldiers were different. Liu Tai had a short time to recruit them, and a short time to use "Han Shu" to influence them. More importantly, they really didn't win many battles with Liu Tai, and they were not like veterans. The trust that comes from winning along the way!

This kind of trust can only take time to settle. Even if Liu Tai wanted to speed up, he couldn't speed up.

Therefore, although Liu Tai wants to engage in elementary education, in fact, the resources are still tilted towards the military, but the tilt angle is from the local Taishan people.

Let them fight harder for their sons when they face cruel battles in the future!
To be honest, Liu Tai didn't know that such a method could make all Taishan soldiers feel at ease with death, but Liu Tai hoped that such an arrangement would allow them to persist a little longer and persist a little longer when facing certain difficulties and obstacles!

For Liu Tai, it is important to feed and clothe the soldiers with food, and it is important to equip the soldiers with weapons, but the most important thing is that these Taishan County soldiers are willing to accept themselves ideologically and are willing to fight for themselves.

After all, once people's thoughts can be changed, the communication cost of leading them will be greatly reduced.

Even they themselves will involuntarily develop a sense of ownership and actively fight for their current industry.

The reason is also very simple. As long as the money is given in place and enough, the majority of migrant workers will not care even if they work for the capitalists.

I'm just afraid that if you give me a salary, you'll be spoiling it for yourself. If you're talking about relationships, this will cost you money!

The same is true for Liu Tai. In Liu Tai's understanding, he planned to spend all the resources obtained by the wealthy families in Taishan County on his own army after confiscating their homes.

As long as there is a good harvest of food this year and he gets the food, he will be able to face any enemy calmly in the future.

But if you can't survive this year, then don't think too much about anything. All these policies will be in vain.

Therefore, at least within this year, Liu Tai is not afraid that the resources in his hands will be too little, but he is afraid that he has no channels to spend resources, so that he can only watch the wealth and food in his hands be licked by others.

Listening to Liu Tai's words, Chu Hui couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He originally thought that Liu Tai wanted to promote enlightenment, but he didn't expect that Liu Tai's ultimate goal was to make the army work hard, and even work hard!

Chu Hui had to admit that Liu Tai was really a military genius sometimes.

This kind of genius is not that Liu Tai is good at battlefield command, but that Liu Tai is always able to establish a system that makes soldiers work for him in terms of military systems.

First, the military history system allows the soldiers to unify their wills, and through subtle influence, allows the soldiers to find the right battle to lead the winner, let the soldiers know what is the most important thing in this war, and then build up the confidence of their own victory. .

Then he created a military medical system and managed the flow of supplies himself. Chu Hui naturally knew how much money and food flowed to Meng Dong and Wang Rujing's medical camps every month.

It is the establishment of the military medical system that makes soldiers on the battlefield more courageous to fight. Although it is not to the extent that they can be saved as long as they are not killed on the spot, it at least reduces the casualty ratio on the battlefield by at least three levels.

Of course, in fact, this ratio can be further reduced.

But the problem is that the medicinal materials are consumed very quickly after each war, but it is quite troublesome to replenish them.

Therefore, in the end, we can often only rely on the careful care of doctors to help the soldiers overcome their bad luck. Then we really have to do our best and obey fate.

Now Liu Tai even arranged for the children of the soldiers to go to school, taking care of the worries of the soldiers.

It would be fine if these Taishan soldiers died on the battlefield. Chu Hui believed that as long as Liu Tai was alive, their children would be taken care of.

But what if these soldiers deserted on the battlefield?
No one knows what will happen to them, but their children will probably be criticized by the people around them, and may even have to spend their entire lives cleansing away the sins committed by their parents!
"General Liu wants all the soldiers on the battlefield to fight to the death!" Chu Hui couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He knew very well that he could not stop the implementation of this system.

If Liu Tai directly opened it to all children in Taishan County, Chu Hui would definitely try his best to stop it.

But now Liu Tai is very clear that it is only open to soldiers in the army, which is in the interests of the military.

But then I thought about it, after all, it only provides two meals. Who would really send their children here just for two meals? Isn't the food prepared by General Liu a bit too much?

Chu Hui comforted himself in his heart, but after this order was issued, it didn't take long for all the soldiers who joined the army to send their sons over without hesitation, and some even cried loudly. The milk baby is delivered here.

Liu Tai said, "I teach children's enlightenment here, and many children are not sent back until they are at least six years old."

But even so, the number of children received is close to 1000. After all, six-year-old children are not as disgusting as the three-year-olds, but they are also curious and active around them and difficult to control.

At the same time, they are too young to do much work at home. Now Liu Tai adopts them and teaches them, which is really a good place for most families.

The most important thing is that for the people, when they can get benefits from the government, but they don't get it, especially when their neighbors get it, it is really more uncomfortable than losing money themselves.

No, this is because I have suffered a big loss!
Therefore, after the children of soldiers actually had lunch and dinner here, and the school even provided accommodation, the soldiers felt relieved.

Even after this elementary school had been running for a few days, the soldiers discovered that this elementary school not only taught simple liberal arts and teaching.

Every day there are veterans who have retired from the military as physical education teachers to train them in basic formation. Many soldiers who have joined the army take the initiative to send their children in after knowing this.

Even some Taishan soldiers who had not yet received their fields took the initiative to ask if their children could be sent in first.

Suddenly, Liu Tai was even more supported by the army, especially the local soldiers.
