Back to Datang Jianzuo City

Chapter 669 Everyone in the mansion gathered together to talk about military affairs

The private mansions in Xincheng all have different styles, private and private... If they were all the same, who would buy them?
In such a huge mansion, there were only about twenty maids and guards inside and out, and the mansion covering an area of ​​[-] mu seemed empty.

Apart from the kitchen, the most densely populated place in the entire mansion is the study room, and the garden in the backyard also looks desolate due to the weather.

Today, a large group of royal children, nobles, and noble children gathered in this mansion.

Li Ke and Cheng Chumo came back. After returning to Chang'an to report on their duties, they received their rewards and came to Xincheng.

The two of them are now the chief instructors of the new army of the Heavenly Punishment Army, responsible for the training of the new army of the Heavenly Punishment Army.The new army's training location was chosen in the training camp in Xincheng, which was used to train police backup personnel.

The training camp is close to the military base, and [-] guards were transferred from Xianyang half a month ago. It is confidential, safe, and time-saving.

These two people went straight to Ding's mansion after going to the training camp to report. Seeing the little kids all over the yard, they clench their tails and thieves to find Liu Yi. They asked Ding Yi's location before they found him.

In any case, the two of them can be regarded as returning from the battlefield, so this is why we have this dinner together today!
Li Ke, the Cheng family brothers, the Du family brothers, Li Tai, Yuchi Baolin, Qin Huaidao, Wei Shuyu, Du Gou and Xiao Wei followed those two people from Chang'an just for this long-awaited gathering!
Hua Niang put down the preparations for the technical school and went back to the house to cook in person.These ten or so young people were what she had eaten for several years.

This alone is enough to make her proud in the chef world!

There were all kinds of snacks and drinks in the restaurant, and ten people sat on the carpet beside the low table, watching the things in the oven while chatting with each other.

Think about it three years ago, this group of people were still in the dark at that time, but now...they are doing research, leading the army to fight, managing the transportation of the Tang Dynasty, and tinkering with new laws.Oh, there is another one who is studying at Xincheng College now, but still hasn't graduated!

There were no dancing girls to accompany the whole occasion, let alone beauties, and some were just a group of bachelors!

The top singer of Yinhe Quyi Building stroked the piano, and sang elegant tunes with a lark-like voice.

This was requested by Li Ke and the two of them. After staying in the barracks for almost a year, they felt beautiful when they saw Rhubarb.Don't think that the two of them are distinguished and special, so they can enjoy some preferential treatment!The general of the Heaven's Punishment Army is Cheng Yaojin, how could he give these two people the chance to destroy the entire army?

Most people don't know the military discipline of the Heavenly Punishment Army, only the soldiers of the Heavenly Punishment Army or those who have been in contact with them will know that the military discipline of the Heavenly Punishment Army is so strict.

No one dares to have fun and drink in the army. Once discovered, it is not as simple as expulsion from the army, and serious cases will be sent to the Ministry of War.

Cheng Chumo and Li Ke cooperated with each other tacitly, and the two danced and talked about their northern expedition to Goguryeo and brutal Tuyuhun.

One person was speaking, and the other was cooperating in the field, adding fuel and vinegar to the explanation from time to time, so that everyone could know how chic their life was after joining the army, and how beautiful the scenery outside the Great Wall was!
Finally, when the two were tired of talking, Ding Yi leaned his left arm on the low table and found the most comfortable position in an indecent posture. Holding a cup of tea in his right hand, he looked at Cheng Chumo and said, "Training camp send Those who went to participate in the Heavenly Punishment Army, have you seen it?"

Cheng Chumo was extremely excited at the moment, and when he heard Ding Yi's question, he shook his head impatiently, expressing that he hadn't paid attention to this matter.

Li Ke was more cautious, and replied: "I went to meet them, is there anyone who wants to introduce us?"

Sure enough, Li Ke knew Ding Yi's temperament well, otherwise Ding Yi wouldn't have asked such a question.He was very curious as to what kind of person it was that Ding Yi could mention in front of so many people.

"Two, Xue Li and Pei Xingjian. Have you seen them?" Ding Yi stretched out two fingers with his left hand.

Li Ke understood, but followed by question marks all over his face, he said: "I know these two people, and they are very famous! I heard that you sent them to study with Duke Yi for half a year, and now you let them Entering the Heavenly Punishment Army, are they really worthy of your attention?"

The chatter in the field gradually slowed down. Everyone here knew that Ding Yi had put in a lot of effort to send the two of them to study with Duke Yi.They had never seen Ding pay so much attention to anyone!

Even Ma Zhou, who is now in the throes of the Ministry of Communications, was kept by Ding Yi, and he didn't seem to take it seriously at all.It's just that Ma Zhou himself is very competitive, he learned everything step by step and did it by himself.

Ding Yi lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then pondered: "These two people are worth what I do! You will see!"

It's hard to explain this matter. Could it be that these two people are the ones who will hold up half the sky of Datang's army 20 years later?
"Since you're so optimistic about them, I'm going to see what's so special about them!" Li Ke didn't ask, and Ding Yi might have his reasons. Relationships are strained, and it doesn't do any good.

Furthermore, whoever does not cultivate their own power in the court is just some covert and some open.Is there anyone as bright and upright as Ding Yi who is placed under the eyes of the emperor!
Moreover, in the past few years, Ding Yi has only cultivated a Ma Zhou, and he is only a road builder!

What he did more was to change all the old systems, so that the political machine of the Tang Dynasty could operate more quickly and effectively.

"Haha~ I don't want to care about what they can become. They have done what they have to do, and they will rely on themselves in the future. What I want to tell you is that I plan to change the business school in Xincheng Cultivate military talents. Do you think it’s feasible?” The business school is a bit far away for Datang people. Before they have completely stepped out of the agricultural society and reached the industrial society, they should not expect extravagant things about the commercial society.

Instead, it was changed to a military academy, which was what Datang needed.But whether this is what the emperor needs is unknown!
Today, he just wanted to communicate with these people, and let the emperor and those in the army know through their mouths.

"Military academy?" Li Tai was the first to ask. He doesn't like military affairs, but it doesn't mean he doesn't care.And a military academy was enough to arouse his curiosity.

Ding Yi took a sip of tea and introduced the specific situation of the military academy to them one by one. He also analyzed the shortcomings of the Tang army, and specifically proposed the status of soldiers today and the status they should have.

This is a big proposition, enough to cause shock in the entire Tang Dynasty, but... just today it is displayed in front of the world.

"Are you sure you're not crazy?" Cheng Chumo sat on Ding Yi's left, lifted his shoulder, and looked at him like a madman.

"Let's talk about it today!"
