When Pan Geng moved to Yin, I initiated Jian Shang

Chapter 123 Arrangements Before Departure
The Yu clan and the Ji clan were preparing, and Xin Qu was not left behind either.

But while he was preparing, he completed what he had originally set out to do.

Children and young people were called together, and an examination began.

The exam questions were also very simple. They were the clan system and the words composed by Xin Qu. The exam questions were written on a piece of wood that had been washed black and placed in front of everyone, and then they were asked to write down their answers.

Beach is among them.

He didn't come to participate last time because he had just started learning after all, but this time he came.

The confident one is here!
He is also a human being, and as long as he is a human being, he will have a sense of shame.

Being looked down upon or ridiculed in various ways is definitely not what he wants to see.

Therefore, after a month of hard study, I finally improved my overall level.

Xin Qu, as the examiner, took a look when he passed by and was a little surprised at Tan's learning progress. However, compared to Bing Jia and Liu Yuan, his foundation was much different.

Even the simplest [-]-word essay was full of mistakes and omissions, which gave Xin Qu a headache.

But barely.

Xin Qu walked around and found a few seedlings, but most of them were still a mess. He could only say helplessly: "Ahem, if you think you have nothing wrong with it, or if you don't know how to do it, just hand in the paper. I will correct it on the spot."

Tan was the first to come up, he was very confident.

Xinqu took it and quickly corrected the answers and corrected the mistakes without saying a word.

But Tan's face changed slightly, he didn't expect that he was so wrong?

"Write often and practice often. After the charcoal is dropped, you need to pay a huge price if you want to modify it. And after you finish writing the charcoal, you need to engrave it. Seal engraving is the most important step to preserve the text.

Of course, the purpose of seal cutting is to finalize the document. Once the document is finalized, it cannot be easily deleted.And if you don’t even understand the most basic writing and grammar, how will you be able to read government orders clearly in the future?Can you explain the government decree to more tribesmen? "

Xin Qu's tone was calm, but his speed was fast: "Especially here, a sentence that can directly define the amount of data has been made ambiguous by you.

If you use this as a government decree, I will find a hundred ways to exploit the loopholes, and then the extra taxes will fall into my pocket.

From now on, the tribesmen will not look for trouble with me, but with you, because it was your vague writing that caused them losses.I'm just following my understanding, do you understand? "

Tan kept his face dark and said nothing. Although Xin Qu's correction did correct his wording errors, what did he want to do by saying it so openly?

Take the opportunity to mess with him?

Xinqu didn't bother to pay attention to this guy's fragile heart. He calculated the score and gave it a 48: "Think about it carefully. There may be an opportunity before the end of the year."

"You don't need to say it." Tan gritted his teeth and started to leave.

Xinqu didn't tolerate him and raised his head: "Fake, the first result is out, Tan, 48, Ding."

Scores are assessed according to a hundred-point system plus four levels of assessment: A, B, C, and D.

All scores below sixty are considered Ding.

61 to [-] is C.

81 to [-] is B.

A score of [-] or above is considered A.

In theory, officials with the Xin family must take exams in three subjects: grammar, arithmetic, and martial arts.

Grammar is the focus, respectively writing and law.

After all, there is no need to fuss about pretentious rhetoric, practicality is the truth, so the most important thing for officials to manage a place is to fuss over the application of terms and conditions.

Arithmetic is mainly about arithmetic and divination. Xinqu has begun to subconsciously guide the integration of mathematics and divination. In the future, officials will also go to the fields to encourage farmers, so they need to record their experience. Calculation skills, astronomy and geography, agricultural foundations, and divination and appeasement are all indispensable. .

Martial arts is divided into a compulsory test and two optional tests.

The required test is: long-distance running.

The first choice is: archery and spear throwing.The second choice is: riding alone or driving a chariot.

For each major category, you must choose one.

The inclusion of long-distance running in the compulsory exam is also due to the special road conditions of this era, and only long-distance running is more suitable.

Of course, martial arts will not be an assessment target until next year, because all the young people of the Xin family are extremely virtuous in martial arts as long as they do not have their hands or feet broken off.

Basically everyone knows a thing or two about these things.

Therefore, basically as long as you pass the B subjects of grammar and arithmetic, you can be admitted to the Yamen.

But students with poor foundation are still slow to learn Chinese characters.

After Xin Qu corrected it, he directly announced: "No one has passed the test... we will continue next month. You two, Bing Jia and Liu Yuan, will stay for a while."

Everyone left depressed, they didn't expect it to be so difficult.

However, Bing Jia and Liu Yuan scratched their heads and came over. Their bet was over, and Bing Jia lost.

I already apologized last month, why are you still looking for them?

"Two things." Xinqu did not waste time with charades. He pondered for a moment and said, "I heard from Wu Yi that if the old witch is stable, he will contact you, right?"

"That's right." Liu Yuan nodded.

"Well... In this way, I will arrange for twenty naturalized people for you, and you can take them south as soon as possible to find the old witch."

Xin Qu sighed: "The situation in Hebei is chaotic now, and I need news from the south. After you find the old witch, make sure to keep in touch with the clan at any time. Of course, if you really can't find the old witch after winter, you can withdraw immediately. ."

Liu Yuan's expression changed slightly: "Clan Chief, isn't the clan going to fight with the Yu clan and the Ji clan now? Why don't we move people away at this juncture..."

Xinqu waved his hand and interrupted: "I know what you are worried about, but everything needs to be prepared in advance. The Xin family can still free up 20 people, but the news from the south is crucial. Especially those tribesmen. You Go over and find the old witch and give him this letter. I think the old witch will find a way to solve it."

Liu Yuan took the letter and his eyes were blazing: "The clan leader actually wants to let more warriors who are away from home return home, right?"

"Well, it's best to be back. In the past three days, our people have sent back news that the Yu family has eight hundred armored soldiers, including one hundred bronze armors, and the rest are all leather armors." Xinqu sighed, " Do you know what level of armed force this is? It is basically the level of the Shang Prince of Dayi.

With this kind of strength, even the merchants from Dayi would have to have about three thousand troops to suppress these people head-on.

So this winter, the more Xin warriors there are, the better. "

"I understand." Liu Yuan sighed, "How will the clan leader deal with the Yu family?"

"Well... it is indeed a problem, but it is not without a solution." Xinqu rubbed his chin and said, "The bows and crossbows are here to serve. There are not enough armored soldiers, and we still have a large number of crossbows. Being able to take a person's head from a hundred steps away is absolutely amazing. Fight for your life within ten steps.

A lot of preparation has been done in the past few days. Although the swamp has dried up a lot now, it is still muddy in some places.

We have recently accepted a lot of tribes from the swamps, and I have asked them to find muddy areas.

If you can't fight, just run away. If you really can't fight against the water, then the home field advantage is in our hands. So what if he has armor?Running in the mud consumes a huge amount of physical energy. "

Didn't Xin Qu ever think about opening the film head-on? If he had the advantage, he wouldn't need to be treated as a fool?
Liu Yuan said no more.

Xin Qu looked at Bing Jia: "I'll give you a mission. You'll be stationed in Chang Ping. I'll take Shi Wu, Ze Yu, and Feng Yan to set off. I'll keep my home. Don't go into battle without authorization. If you have any questions, please contact Jun Du Shan. Big stocks."

"Okay." Bingjia nodded, but then he thought about it and said, "Won't the Changxin clan send troops to support us?"

"I have not contacted them." Xin Qu shook his head, "Tufang went south to attack the Yourong clan. It is very likely that the Changxin clan will be asked by the pedestrians sent by the Yourong clan to send troops to cooperate with the Yourong clan to attack Tufang.

In this case, allowing the Changxin clan to cooperate with the Rong clan to attack Tufang can directly cut off the connection between the Yu clan and Tufang. This will bring greater benefits.

Moreover, Jundu Mountain is blocked by large stocks, so it’s not a big problem.

It's a good thing that I completed the Juyong Pass in advance, otherwise I really wouldn't have dared to take people to see the Yu family in person.

Okay, that's it. Let's get busy.I also have to prepare. I will start preparing troops tomorrow and will set off soon. "
