The Summoning World of the Great Qin Empire

Chapter 976
During the war, all materials will be biased towards the war, and no one will say that it should not be said; witnessing the bloody and evil of the war, it deeply makes people know that only by standing on the commanding heights of the war can they control themselves fate.

Nowadays, in the wars of all countries in the world, it is rare for the two armies to form a decisive battle on the plains; between countries, and between armies, there will be more or less awareness, so siege and defense have become very important. one ring.

There is absolutely no problem with Wang Li's loyalty. Fusu left all the gunpowder matter to him and Meng Yi, because Wang Li followed Fusu to fight against the Huns in the north, so he is very familiar with the military formation.

Now siege is not a big problem, Fusu now wants to see if gunpowder can be used when the two armies confront each other.

There are definitely risks in doing this, so Fusu thinks that he can only equip a small amount, and it can only be equipped in the army directly under his own control, such as the forbidden army with the highest loyalty to the Great Qin!

If the grenade can be invented, throwing it on the tower with a trebuchet and blowing up the battleship will definitely be very good. These things need to be practiced by Ou Yezi. If you are not lucky, you may have to pay a lot of lives.

After hundreds of people were killed and thousands of people were injured and disabled, Fusu finally realized how expensive it is to develop a thermal weapon such as landmines.

Fusu called Ou Yezi to him, and told Ou Yezi that he could slow down a bit, that appointments are the most precious thing, and everyone has only one life.

However, the children of those who were killed while researching grenades belonged to the imperial court.

After this edict came down, the soldiers who were originally selected to participate in the production of grenades were considered to have actively participated in it. After all, after dying in battle, the imperial court did not have the practice of raising orphans.

Fusu began to sort out the battle reports submitted by all parts of the country last year, and appointed Zhang Juzheng as the imperial envoy to go to all parts of the country to check the grain reserves.

All the officials knew that this was a signal from the central government to the local government that the battle might start soon.

The whole country may have to be ready to mobilize all the materials that can be dug into the army; the soldiers on the back have also begun to train, and the men who want to pay no taxes at home, or pay less taxes, have also come to the place where they are given Sign up at the barracks above.

Passionate men with lofty ideals went to the battlefield to make contributions, and then returned to their hometowns; they also went to the barracks one after another.

Similarly, the selection of Chinese officials in the imperial court has also entered an era of fierce competition.

Du Fu has been one of the chief examiners of the imperial examinations for several years, so he naturally recruited many disciples, and Du Fu is also good as a teacher. After the spring list falls, the scholars who are on the list naturally call their friends and go to the yamen of the school to report. But there are no scholars on the list, but only secretly sad.

This is the fourth time Wan Xiliang has failed the rankings, and he has already passed the exam to despair. If it weren't for his mentor Du Shenyan who has always praised him and helped him when he had no money to live, he would have been a long time ago. I can't hold on any longer.

This is the fifth time!
Still failed!

Wan Xiliang decided to bid farewell to his mentor and return to his hometown Guzhu City to be a teacher. The imperial court is now promoting education, but there is still a lot of teachers missing. As long as there is a post from a mentor, returning to his hometown is considered a county. All officials should look at themselves high.

Thinking of this, Wan Xiliang gritted his teeth, and went to the Du Mansion. The concierge saw that it was Wan Xiliang, so he greeted him with a smile. After all, he was a scholar and his master's disciple, so he didn't dare to neglect.

"Sir, wait here. The master is talking to the uncle in the backyard. If you know this, I will let you know." The concierge asked the maid to go to the door, and Wan Xiliang sat on the chair and nodded to express his gratitude.

The uncle was not swearing, but he was talking about Du Fu, the eldest son of Du Shenyan in Du's mansion. This person has been an examiner for many years, responsible for writing questions and grading papers, and selected many talents for the emperor.

Otherwise, how could so many earthen cities be built on the vast grassland?

Not selected from here.

It didn't take long for Du Shenyan to arrive.

Wan Xiliang got up quickly and greeted his mentor: "Men, please take a seat!"

Du Shenyan looked a little ugly, but it wasn't aimed at Wan Xiliang.

"Liang'er, the old man already knows about the Spring List. How about taking the exam next year? If there is a shortage of food and money at home, the old man still has a lot of money left over here. You can just use it."

Wan Xiliang was very moved when he heard this, but he smiled wryly and said: "Men, I feel that I am blunt by nature, and I have never passed the exam. Since the emperor created the imperial examination, I have landed five times. I really have no face to pass the exam." .”

"Ah!" Du Shenyan also sighed, he has accepted hundreds of disciples, basically all of them have passed the imperial examination, some of them are officials in the interior, some of them are working for the imperial court in Tucheng outside the Great Wall, this is the one who was born Disciple Wan Xiliang couldn't pass the exam many times, and the master really had no choice.

"Then what are your plans?" Du Shenyan saw that Wan Xi's conscience was disheartened, so he listened to this disciple's plan.

Wan Xiliang smiled wryly and said: "I'm afraid my mentor will blame me. I want to go back to my hometown Guzhu City and become a teacher. I can compete with children from my hometown. Even if I fail the imperial examination, I still have to do things for the court. The important thing is You can't live up to the teachings of your teacher over the years."

"Forget it!" Du Shenyan said worriedly: "Although you and I are masters and apprentices, we are as close as father and son. To tell you the truth, I was begging Zimei just now, hoping that he would give you a position as an alternate official."

"What's the matter?" Hearing what his mentor said, Wan Xiliang felt that there was probably hope.

"It's not urgent, let me ask you, who else is there in your family?"

"There is only one younger sister who is still living in her boudoir at the age of sixteen, and one aunt who is married to another place. There has been no news for five or six years."

Du Shenyan nodded and said: "Then you go back now and bring the little girl, and I will naturally settle him down. Zimei has a lot of friends in the capital, but there are some young talents who can be introduced to her... um, The premise is that she wants to like it herself, even though you are an elder brother, you can't forcefully disobey her wishes."

Wan Xiliang heard what his mentor meant, and he was worried that he would use his little sister's lifelong happiness to engage in improper actions such as seeking an official position, so he cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, mentor, these students will find out clearly."

"That's good!" Du Shenyan got up and said, "You wait for me here, I'll find Zimei and come over and talk to you."
