The Three Kingdoms

Seeing Sun Quan's expression, Zhang Zhao reacted instinctively and ran away. This was not the first time. Every time Sun Quan had this expression, there was only one request, money.

"My lord, my lord's business is very important, Zhao must do it right away." Zhang Zhao turned around and was about to slip away.

"Don't worry, I don't care about anything." Sun Quan's eyes were sharp, and he immediately grabbed Zhang Zhao, saying, "It's a small matter, and it will delay you for a quarter of an hour."

"Young master, the general's mansion is very poor."

Zhang Zhao was caught by Sun Quan, so he had no choice but to turn his head. With a bitter face, he pre-empted the attack and began to complain, saying: "My lord, you should also know that Yuzhang, Luling, and Lujiang were newly taken over, and the taxes from various places have not been collected. , on the contrary, we have to pay back money to stabilize the local people, and now our general's mansion is really poor."

"Mr. Zibu, I didn't even say that I was asking for money, so why did you react like this?" Sun Quan asked, stunned when he heard the words.

"My lord, there are some things. There are only three things. When you opened up Jinyiwei and built Jiangdong Academy, you asked me to allocate funds." Zhang Zhao said quietly: "As a result, Jinyiwei blossomed everywhere in Jiangdong, and Jiangdong Academy became famous all over the world. , but half of my general’s treasury was exploited by you.”

"Hahaha, Zhongmou, talk to smart people in front of smart people, otherwise you will think that everyone is your father, and you can be fooled so easily!" Sun Jian immediately laughed and said .

"That's right, smart people don't fool around. Well, let me just say it, I really want money." Sun Quan couldn't help but feel a little depressed, and said, "I want to build a new academy."

"Why?"

Sun Jian was very puzzled by Zhang Zhao and both of them.

Sun Jian asked: "Zhongmou, don't we have Jiangdong Academy now?"

"Young Master, Zhao knows that you support studying, but this matter has to be done step by step. Jiangdong Academy can still support Jiangdong's scholars at present, and there is no need to start another one."

Zhang Zhao frowned, and said, "Furthermore, Jiangdong Academy's free enrollment has cost our General's Mansion too much money. The current financial resources of our General's Mansion absolutely cannot support another academy."

"I'm talking about colleges, not colleges."

Sun Quan shook his head and said, "I didn't think of this until the beginning of Jiangdong Academy. Since scholars can be trained, why can't leading generals be trained? After all, the battlefield is too cruel."

In fact, it was when Jiangdong Academy started that he realized that he had forgotten something, the military academy!

That’s right, it’s a military academy, which belongs to the people of the times. In their consciousness, scholars can open academies and invite great Confucians to train them, but soldiers can only be trained on the battlefield, and there is no concept of training scholars to serve as soldiers.

"Cultivate leading generals?"

In Sun Jian's tiger's eyes, the light flickered, and said: "Zhongmou, you are a little whimsical, you have to know one thing, a qualified leader can only be cultivated on the battlefield."

[Chapter 156 of the main body creates the Jiangdong Lecture Hall]

"Father, that's not necessarily the case."

Sun Quan shook his head, and said: "Our ancestors can leave such wonderful books on soldiers as "Sun Tzu's Art of War" to teach future generations how to fight. This shows that experienced senior generals can also use their experience and knowledge from the battlefield. What can be taught can also be trained as a leader and general.”

The Sun family has always claimed to be the descendants of Sun Wu, the soldier saint of the Warring States Period. This statement is very empty in Jiangdong. After all, the history from the Warring States Period to the present is still too long to be proved, but this is indeed a kind of pride from the bottom of the heart of all Sun family children.

"Father, a person who has never read military books, or with outstanding martial arts, can charge into battle, but the chances of becoming the leader of the army are too low. Only by being familiar with military books and having solid military knowledge can he have a chance to become an outstanding soldier." Leading General."

In this era, there is a clear distinction between civil and military forces. In the army, the cultural knowledge of those above the rank of lieutenant is considered passable. , people who do not know how to read, more than 70.00%.

Sun Quan really wanted to change this situation. After all, there was a big difference between a literate soldier and an uneducated soldier.

"Zhongmou, do you want to train a Zhao Kuo who can talk about military affairs on paper?" Sun Jian frowned and sneered: "Generals can only be trained after meritorious service on the cruel battlefield."

"Zhao Kuo is indeed a tragedy, but one thing is undeniable. The reason why Zhao Kuo can talk about military affairs on paper is because he does have solid military knowledge. Alone."

Sun Quan's eyes were awe-inspiring, and his voice was firm, he said: "In Quan's heart, an outstanding general must have solid knowledge of military theory and rich experience in actual combat in order to be successful, and actual combat can only be achieved on a cruel battlefield." , but we can cultivate military theoretical knowledge.”

"My lord, I think that Mr. Quan's words are not bad."

Zhang Zhao next to him heard Sun Quan's words, his complexion changed slightly, and he suddenly said,

Zhang Zhao is a scholar and a quick thinker. Sun Quan's words changed his fixed thinking and suddenly made him see another possibility.

Scholars can be trained to be filial and honest, so they can be officials, so why can't the leaders of the army be trained to be officers directly.

"Zi Bu, you also think that he is right?"

Sun Jian glanced at Sun Quan, then at Zhang Zhao, his expression became gloomy, and he said coldly: "A certain family has accumulated military experience through life and death, and countless battles. Do you think a general can go from Was it cultivated by the academy?"

"Generals can't, but general leaders in the army can be trained."

Sun Quan said indifferently: "What we want to do is not let them reach the sky in one step, but let them avoid some detours. After all, the battlefield is cruel, and we can't pile up leading generals with human lives. Let's put it this way, my child.

Father, if you have a task that requires a military marquis to lead the troops alone to complete, and you have two military marquises under your command, each commanding [-] troops, both of them have actual combat experience, but one of them is familiar with military books , one is a person who can't read big characters, which one do you choose? "

"Nonsense, of course it is..." Sun Jian's eyes were fixed, and he immediately realized that he couldn't turn the corner before, and his thoughts had entered a dead end. Humanoid.

And Sun Quan's metaphor is very vivid, so he began to understand the meaning expressed in Sun Quan's words carefully.

"Zhongmou, you mean that in the Jiangdong Army, the generals who lead more than ten soldiers are all familiar with military books, right?" Sun Jian said with a serious expression, staring at Sun Quan.

"That's right, that's what it means."

Sun Quan nodded, and said: "The leader who stands alone depends on his innate aptitude, acquired hard work, and luck. This cannot be cultivated, but ordinary generals can be cultivated by us, and it is a large-scale cultivation. If these generals can read and understand the art of war, then the cohesion and combat effectiveness of the Jiangdong Army will at least be raised to a higher level."

"Zibu, do you agree with this statement?" Sun Jian was silent, looked at Zhang Zhao, and asked.

"My lord, Zhao is not the leader of the army, but Zhao believes that in theory, Mr. Quan's statement is correct, and it is worth trying."

Zhang Zhao pondered for a moment before answering softly, saying.

Hearing this, Sun Jian took a deep breath, fixed his eyes on Sun Quan, and said, "Zhongmou, tell a certain school in detail about the academy you want to establish."

"promise!"

Sun Quan's eyes moved, he knew that Sun Jian was tempted, and said: "My son plans to build a new academy, which will focus on martial arts, supplemented by literature, and use military books as textbooks. At the same time, every student must teach the cultivation of martial arts. Father, General Pan, General Cheng Pu, General Zu Mao...these are all experienced generals who can stand alone. They can go to the academy in turn to pass on their combat experience to these students, and vividly describe the battles they have experienced. Careful analysis..."

Sun Quan spent more than half an hour, eloquently, carefully describing the military academy in his mind to Sun Jian and Zhang Zhao, and finally said firmly: "I have already decided on the name of this academy, and it is called Jiangdong Lecture Hall! "

"Jiangdong Lecture Hall?"

Sun Jian narrowed his eyes and fell silent.Sun Quan put forward this concept of a military academy that transcends this era. As a general who leads hundreds of thousands of soldiers, he naturally understands the meaning of it.

If the effect Sun Quan said can really be achieved, in ten years time, I am afraid that the collective combat effectiveness of the Jiangdong Army can be pushed to a higher level, and it is fundamentally stronger than other armies.

"Jiangdong Academy, Jiangdong Lecture Hall?"

Zhang Zhao's eyes lit up, he stared at Sun Quan, and suddenly said: "One trains officials, the other trains generals. There is a clear distinction between them. My son, you are separating civil and military affairs for the future Jiangdong regime."

"Ha ha."

Sun Quan smiled lightly, and Zhang Zhao's reaction was really quick, saying: "We will talk about the future things later, a political power, military and political affairs are a family, but not all the way."

"Zi Bu, does our General's Mansion still have the financial resources to build a lecture hall?" Sun Jian asked suddenly.Sun Quan did tell him that he moved, but it may not be possible for a college in the future. Jiangdong Academy has spent too much money on the General's Mansion.

"My lord, move around, there will always be some, the Jiangdong Army will soon reinforce Jiujiang, the big deal, let's take this sum of money from Liu Yao." Zhang Zhao gritted his teeth and said.
