At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

Dong Zhao, are you blind?

Such reprimands are already quite serious.

Thinking of Cui Yan being forced to personally beat Cui Qu to death before, Dong Zhao hesitated, and confessed his mistake on the table, saying that he hadn't thought carefully before, but now he has figured it out, and he supports the emperor's idea.

Dong Zhao didn't dare to speak, but other people still dared to speak, and some people came forward to advise Guo Peng, thinking that it was not appropriate to do so, and there might be hidden dangers.

There are many such people.

Guo Peng looked at their performance list, thought for a while, and issued another imperial decree to announce it to the public.

The emperor personally served as the sacrificial wine in the lecture hall, and set up the general office and assistant office to assist in handling the affairs of the lecture hall.

I personally manage the lecture hall, what else do you want to say?

What else do you dare to say?

Sensing the emperor's stern gaze, all the ministers stopped and did not dare to object again.

The emperor went off to manage the lecture hall in person, and went off to be the leader of this group of big soldiers, what else could he do?

Chapter 924 Four Suitable Candidates for the General Office

It wasn't until the emperor came off the stage to stand in the lecture hall that many officials remembered a very important thing.

Although the emperor has withdrawn from the frontline battlefield for several years, the emperor is the eternal soul of Wei Jun.

The emperor is the eternal god of war in the hearts of Wei soldiers, the unshakable absolute supreme leader.

This is the biggest soldier in the world!

Although the emperor was indeed from a gentry family, he took a military route, which was completely different from everyone's imagination from the very beginning!

From the time the emperor joined the army at the age of 19 until he withdrew from the front line a few years ago, he has been fighting for many years without losing.

He led the army to sweep the world, and personally led the army to defeat many powerful enemies, which established the foundation of Wei State.

The three brothers Zhang Jiao, the Yellow Turban Army from all over the country, Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Lu Bu, Li Jue, Guo Si, Ma Teng, Han Sui, and Liu Zhang.

These are the defeated soldiers of the emperor, and they are the stepping stones for the emperor's military exploits to shine in the annals of history.

The famous and prominent warlords of the separatist regime turned into ashes one after another in front of the emperor, disappeared without a trace, and would only leave their sad names in the history books.

Wei Guo's foundation was directly led by the emperor to fight down.

Now those so-called five tiger generals who led troops to conquer various places were all small generals under the emperor's subordinates. They were the emperor's old troops, and they grew up slowly under the emperor's guidance.

At the beginning, they were just pawns, and they could only lead a small number of troops to charge into battle, but they did not have the ability to command thousands of troops like they do now.

As the emperor continued to grow, they also continued to grow, so that they could command more troops and have the opportunity to show themselves, so they had the prestige of today's five tiger generals.

Therefore, it is unreasonable to say that the army's support and worship of the emperor will not hesitate.

It is impossible for the imperial court to interfere with the emperor's call to the army.

The 51 soldiers of the Wei army and the same number of auxiliary soldiers spared no effort in supporting the emperor.

From the period of Wei Gong, to the period of King Wei, and then to the period of Emperor Wei, Wei Jun's subordination to Guo Peng has become stronger and stronger.

With the prestige of the emperor, it is a breeze to do this.

If the order goes on here, those who want to enter the lecture hall to be the emperor's disciples over there will probably have their heads smashed.

It is estimated that the soldiers will be collectively restless, and they don't know what crazy things they will do for these five hundred places.

Everyone quickly understood what the emperor meant.

I told you about this matter to abide by the rules I set myself, to let you go through the procedure and talk about procedural justice, not to let you sing against me.

Scholars look for disciples among scholars, so my emperor can't find disciples among soldiers?

You can engage in disciples and old officials, but I can't?

You have disciples, and I want to have them too.

If you have old officials, I also want to have one.

What do you have, I will have it, what you don't have, I will still have it!

Such a domineering and unreasonable emperor was bumped into by them, and they were still helpless.

They resisted, and they tried every means to oppose, but they couldn't beat the emperor with reasons and strong force.

Under Guo Peng's high pressure, the Ministry of Industry immediately began to select a site to start construction, and soon called a construction team to choose a suitable place near Shouyang Mountain to start building the Shouyang Mountain Lecture Hall.

According to the emperor's request, the Shouyang Mountain Lecture Hall should be built in the style of a fortress, with a large enough area, and enough places for students to stay and teaching classrooms, and the supporting facilities should be close to Taixue .

In short, the Shouyang Mountain Lecture Hall is the Taixue for the soldiers, and it will be the same as the Luoyang Taixue in the future, it will be the highest school for military talents.

Afterwards, the staff desk and the Ministry of War cooperated, and at the request of the emperor, they came up with selection requirements that were sufficient to select the students of the lecture hall.

For example, the number of beheadings, the number of meritorious deeds, the number of characters recognized, and military skills, these are rigid indicators that cannot be falsified.

Then, an investigation team was formed according to the emperor's request, and they went to military garrisons all over the country to start screening suitable candidates.

It is estimated that when their selection is completed and the list of personnel is finalized, the Shouyang Mountain Lecture Hall should also be established.

Then Guo Peng began to screen suitable candidates for the general office.

He is the emperor himself, although he has the title of sacrificial wine, he can't really make sacrificial wine himself, that would be too absurd, so the general office of the martial arts hall is the de facto person in charge.

This person must not only have military talent, but also have military experience, and it is best to have a certain reputation in the army.

The essence of the lecture hall is to teach the art of war and the principles of leading troops to grassroots officers and meritorious soldiers who have taken wild paths, so that they can receive systematic military education and become a truly qualified army commander, instead of going wild all the way to the end.

An army that goes all the way to the end can maintain a strong combat capability in a short period of time, but it is difficult to maintain it. Only an army with a stable supply of qualified personnel and an army with a steady stream of fresh blood can maintain a strong combat capability for a long time.

After all, soldiers must also have a certain level of education.

For this reason, it is necessary to let a person with high cultural literacy, reputation in the army, and enough to be reassuring as the head of the martial arts hall to share the pressure for himself.

After thinking about it, Guo realized that after such selection, the candidates were basically fixed on a few people.

The most suitable one is Guo Jia.

The staff officer Taipushe was born as a staff officer. He is familiar with the art of war and has a very good military standard.

On behalf of Guo Peng for a long time to supervise the army, he has experience in commanding in front of the battle. He is considered half a soldier and has a certain reputation in the army.

His surname is Guo, and he belongs to the royal family.

Bohemian, private life was widely criticized by scholars.

He was brought by Guo Peng's side to guide him since he was a child, and he is trustworthy.

Well, the candidate is confirmed.

It is Guo Fengxiao.

Guo Peng immediately asked the cabinet to write an edict, and asked the staff desk to send the news to Shuzhong, and arranged for Guo Jia to come back after making arrangements for the situation in Shuzhong.

There are Man Chong and Le Jin sitting in Shuzhong, Guo Peng is not worried about what bad things will happen.

In terms of military strategy, Guo Peng remembered that the newcomer Fazheng who had made his mark in the previous battle was still in Shuzhong, so he was not worried that the situation in Shuzhong would take a turn for the worse after Guo Jia left.

Guo Peng promoted Fa Zheng in the staff system and gave him a certain position to assist Le Jin in the crusade against the barbarians in central Shu.

Guo Jia has more important things to do.

Helping Guo Peng establish and manage the Shouyang Mountain Lecture Hall is the most important thing.

Soon, under Guo Peng's compulsory request, the Shouyang Mountain Lecture Hall officially became a state institution, with the same status as the Taixue, the highest institution of learning for soldiers.

This fact was officially recognized and became the official statement of the Guo Wei Empire, and it was promulgated to the world and will not be changed.

Objections from officials were forcibly suppressed.

And out of concern about the previous incident, Cui Yan, who barely retained his position as Minister of Rites, took the lead in supporting Guo Peng's opinion and refuting Dong Zhao's opinion, which aroused widespread attention from the government and the public.

Some people ridiculed Cui Yan for his two ends, which is completely inconsistent with his usual style, and he is not a real scholar.

Cui Yan's prestige plummeted, and now except for his authority, everything he had accumulated before was gone.

But it doesn't matter, because of this, he was "valued" by Guo Peng. Guo Peng personally issued an edict to praise Cui Yan, stood behind Cui Yan to support Cui Yan, rewarded Cui Yan with many things, and restored his two hundred households. Shiyi, as a reward.

I don't know whether Cui Yan laughed or smiled wryly when he learned about this.

Anyway, Cui Yan successfully passed the test and was forgiven by the emperor.

In the future, the Qinghe Cui family will obviously continue to gain a foothold in the court, so that they will not end up like the Yingchuan Xun family and the Yingchuan Chen family.

Congrats, congratulations.

Chapter 925 .930 Five Classic Riding and Blade

For Cui Yan, no matter what happened, it was a good thing.

But it was different for most courtiers.

This incident heralds the further increase of the emperor's power, especially the stability of military power, which makes the emperor more powerful, and the suppression of them will be further strengthened, which is definitely not a good thing.

The army is the emperor's biggest reliance on turning the table. The stronger the emperor's control over the army, the greater the probability of success in turning the table. This has to make people worry.

But in any case, for the soldiers, the occurrence of this incident is definitely a major benefit.

So from the day this news spread, the imperial guards in the Gyeonggi area of ​​Luoyang began to be restless.

When this news was officially promulgated and became a fact, the soldiers all over the country were inexplicably agitated.

The first to get agitated is naturally the imperial guards under the feet of the emperor who are responsible for protecting the Gyeonggi area.

Needless to say, the Forbidden Army is the elite of the elite. People who are not the most elite should not even think about being able to enter the Forbidden Army to protect the emperor. The Guards are no different from battalions and garrison troops in other places. .

However, because the Imperial Army and the Guards were the closest to the capital, they were the first to hear the news that the Shouyang Mountain Lecture Hall would be opened, and they also heard the news that the emperor would personally serve as the sacrificial wine, so the Imperial Army and the Guards became agitated. Inquire about each other's news.

They really want to know if they are qualified to enter the Shouyang Mountain Lecture Hall to study and become disciples of the Son of Heaven.

As time went by, news came out one after another.

The first is the announcement of the candidate for the General Office of the Martial Arts Hall. Guo Jia is a staff officer, a son of the royal family, has military merits, and has been fighting outside all year round. This is an excellent candidate that everyone can accept.

Then there is the enrollment quota, which is 500 people.

The Wei army has a military strength of more than 50, and 500 people are selected from the best to enter the lecture hall to become the emperor's disciples.

And according to the follow-up news, the semester is two years, and there will be one selection every year, that is to say, there is only one chance to enter the lecture hall to become the emperor's disciple every year.

Once entered, at the military level, the future is limitless.

Those who have learned those skills and the skills of leading troops and commanding battles will be the seedlings of future generals.

Today's small soldiers may not become generals in the future!

The chief soldiers are from humble backgrounds, but they also have the opportunity to receive higher education and rank among the top ranks of the army. How can this not excite them?

Who doesn't want to go?

With such a rare opportunity, who wouldn't want to fight for it?

That's a disciple of the Son of Heaven.

The big soldiers thought about it, but they didn't expect that they could wait until this day. They were very excited, and they went to the officers to ask for more accurate news.

The grassroots officers are also within the scope of selection, and they themselves are so anxious that they won't pay attention to the big soldiers.

The generals leading troops from all over the country were the first to get the exact news, and soon began to be bombarded by their subordinates in turn. In fact, these middle and senior officers came to inquire because they couldn't bear the bombardment of their respective subordinates.

Middle and high-level officers are not within the scope of selection, and military academies are not very attractive to them. The impatient soldiers and junior officers are very concerned about this.

When the senior generals, who each had a mission, learned of this, they all felt that there was a lot going on here.

And those subordinates who came to ask for specific information also tried to find ways to get some things, and wanted to seek some convenience, and recommended their favorite or trusted subordinates to enter the lecture hall.

But soon, new news followed.

Leading officers do not have any right to recommend and participate.
