Chapter 31 The mountain rain is coming

What kind of courage is it to allocate millions of dollars from private wealth every year to support children who are not close to their relatives to study?

For Wang Lie and Bingyuan, the two great Confucians, Yanbei's move can be described as a great act of 'being poor and being good alone, and being good at helping the world'!

There was no suspense at all, after Yanbei showed that he wanted to make Liaodong a county with a strong style of learning, these two Hongru, who were famous all over the world in the Central Plains, made a decision to stay as the chief officials in charge of learning in the county. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Bingyuan hopes that Yanbei can send a person from Wenxian Shuizhai to Yuzhou Mountain to pick up his family...... They are going to settle in Xiangping.

Millions of dollars are invested in education every year, and at least hundreds of students and Confucian students can be supported. It is difficult for anyone to make such a big determination, but Yanbei is different.

On the one hand, he wanted to, and on the other hand, he saw the long-term benefits of the matter. His background determines that even if he becomes a state pastor in the future, those who have talent and learning will definitely be ranked last in the consideration of all state pastors if they want to defect and have been a rebel.

In the matter of recruiting talents, some people can rely on power, such as the three princes of the Kaifu to recruit in a letter, and many talented people will rush to them; Some people rely on fame, a great Confucian has made a history of assassination or a Taishou, and many people will follow his reputation to defect; Some people rely on protégés and former officials, such as the Yang family of Sanfu and the Yuan family of Runan, and those families of the fourth generation and three princes only need to rely on their protégés.

But Yanbei is different, he recruits talents by luck!

How can this work?

It's hard to be effective in a short period of time, but what about five or ten years from now? Will these learned boys be grateful for Yanbei's kindness to come to him? No matter where he appears, just one out of ten people will come to him, and he will be able to change the current situation of his lack of talent.

With the support of the stone hewn out of Tieshan in Anping Township and the timber transported in southeast Liaoning, the expansion and renovation of the county school is expected to be completed in October, when the county school that can accommodate ten scholars and scholars at the same time can open the museum to teach, and at least hundreds of Confucian students who have opened Mongolia can teach the Five Classics and teach the six arts.

It is foreseeable that the Liaodong County School, which has two great Confucian scholars Wang Lie and Bing Yuan, and a huge museum and Yanbei education, will become the leading official school in the entire Youzhou on the day of its opening.

Even Yanbei has made a plan, and if he has nothing to do after the school opens, he will go to school for a day every ten years.

The implementation of education in Liaodong was carried out in an orderly manner under the control of Wang Lie and Bing Yuan; Sun Qing's side reported the progress of Wenxian Water Village and Yanchi to Yanbei and Fu Zhi. Wenxian water village now has 30 boats, can take 400 water pawns, go back and forth between Qingzhou counties and Wenxian in Liaodong, along the Beihuang, Nanhuang and other overseas islands can go straight to Qingzhou Huang County.

Sun Qing personally escorted Wang Lie and Bing Yuan over this time, just to present the sea chart from Liaodong to Qingzhou to Yanbei, there are five small islands in the middle, all the way to Qingzhou, the farthest distance between each other is only more than 200 miles, and he wants Yanbei to arrange a water village on the overseas islands, and it is easier to supply ships and transport the people.

From Xiangping to the southernmost point of Liaodong, it is actually much faster to travel by land and water than by land, and you can travel 200 miles in one day to catch up with the tailwind. On the land road, the horse team can walk 150 miles in a day with a car, while the roads in the southeast of Liaoning are full of trees and the roads are impassable, and they can die for 50 miles a day. However, it only takes five days to travel from the water and land to Wenxian County, and it only takes six days to take Xiangping.

This is indeed a very good thing, but Yanbei has no money to build a water village for the time being, so he can only press this matter in the hands of Fu Zhi, and when he has money in his hand next year, he will build five water villages on the sea route between Wenxian County and Qingzhou.

In mid-June, the first batch of grain destined for horses in western Liaoning was also brought back.

The first batch of caravans, with a total of more than 40 people, sold 36 white horses and 12 horses, made a profit of 120,000 yuan, purchased 620 stone of grain, 960 stone of millet, and 220 stone of fine beam rice, and transported them to the subject country of Liaodong in batches, and sent Hu riders by Wuhuan Qiu Liju to escort them to Xiangping in Liaodong along the way...... In the future, the caravans in Liaodong need the protection of the Wuhuan people for a long time, and Yanbei did not let the Wuhuan king contribute in vain, giving him 200 stone corn, which is equivalent to one-tenth of the profit of the merchants.

This naturally made Qiu Liju very happy, and their riders only needed to pull out people and horses to walk from Liaoxi to Liaodong once, and they could exchange it for 200 stone corn in a few days, which was a good job. The Wuhuan people are not having a good time now, and the plundering of the various counties and counties of Youji during the Erzhang Rebellion really made them rich for a while, but the eight CDs that were harvested were hoarded in the Feiru area because of Zhang Ju's title of king Zhimeng, and all fell into the hands of Gongsun Zan along with the rout.

What finally fell into Qiu Liju's hands was just some scraps.

Although 200 stone grain is small, but Liaodong grain purchase is a long-term thing, even if you only go once a month, there are 2,000 stone of grain a year, how can Qiu Liju not be happy. What's more, this matter was ordered by Yan Bei, the new captain of Wuhuan in the Han Dynasty.

Captain Wuhuan is a very magical official position in the eyes of Wuhuan people. During the period of peace between Han and Wuhuan, the respect of the Wuhuan people for this official position could even be compared to that of the Wuhuan king, but once the Han and Wuhuan began to fight, it was this official position that would bear the brunt of being killed.

It's just that they don't dare not take Yanbei's words seriously. Not to mention that Yanbei is now the captain of Wuhuan, even if Yanbei was a rebel in the past, the Wuhuan people still didn't dare to have the slightest disobedience...... A general Gongsun beat them so much that they could only return to Yanbei in Liaodong, and licked their wounds from the grange that returned to Lingzhi in Liaoxi with thousands of names, and they dared to touch Yanbei's moldy head?

In addition to the 1,600 stone of grain that can solve the urgent need for grain and grass, Ma An also sent people from Liaoxi to bring back a message, and left a balance of more than 30 gold in his hand, which can be used for the next purchase of grain, and more grain can be sent when the war horses from Liaodong are delivered.

This trade route between western Liaoning and eastern Liaodong can run at least twice a month, and when the situation is good, there can be three round-trips. And it was determined that Yan Bei had paid hundreds of white horses from Gongsun Zhan and sold them back to him, and he could have three million yuan or four thousand stone of grain income per month.

It's a pity that this is not done for long, at most three months...... Gongsun Chan can't eat so many white horses. Now the merchant who transports white horses to Liaoxi is not only one of the Yan clan in Liaodong, but also the white horses from all over Youzhou are being transported to Liaoxi, and in a short period of time, several sworn brothers of Gongsun Zhan with hundreds of millions of family assets have eaten a huge number of six hundred white horses for him.

Ma An estimated that Gongsun Zhan's reorganization of Baima Yicong's number of posts would probably not exceed 5,000, and at most three months, they would need to find a caravan again. On the other hand, he also hoped that Yanbei would allow him to keep an eye on Gongsun Zhan's movements. Gongsun Chan recruited troops with such fanfare, it is obvious that the sword is aimed at Yanbei, and it is likely that by next year at most, Gongsun Chan will have a white horse righteous servant who has been trained to count 5,000 Yu in his hands.

Yanbei did not refuse this, but ordered him to be careful, and let him relax, three months of grain purchase can support the grain harvest in various places, now Liaodong's farm tools are doing well, and then should be able to save a batch of farm tools, although the income is less, but the price of corn will be lower at that time, and you can still take care of the grain and grass in the county.

At least this year's past until next year's grain harvest, Yanbei will be able to let every soldier under his command eat the grain he grows, and at that time, there will be a surplus of food self-sufficiency, and no one will be able to block his way!

Could it be that only Gongsun Chan can train soldiers?

The 2,800 energetic and physically strong Yanzhao warriors of the Xiangping battalion are also training under the harshest training method that Yanbei has ever seen in his life, which is the part that Yanbei has high hopes for!

Yanbei wants them to take traveling 100 miles a day as the norm, riding horses and running 300 miles as the norm, and quickly forming a battle formation as the norm...... Needless to say, the personal fighting ability of this batch of Yanzhao warriors is self-explanatory, under the specially made stone lock drill, everyone can lift two hundred catties of stone locks above their heads several times, and it is needless to say that they throw halberds and shoot strong crossbows, and the only shortcoming is the ability to fight in battle.

For this reason, Yanbei deliberately let them form three three-talent formations with five people per army, which are used to face the small force after falling into the surprise attack, and the same is true for the big battle array.

In addition to battle formations, hand-to-hand combat, and soldiers, there are also night battles every three days and a hundred-mile attack every ten days.

Only professional samurai who are out of production can effectively train for night combat. This is the truth that Yanbei summed up from the defeat of the Yellow Turban Army, after the ordinary conscription of the township Yongcheng army, he still took the sunrise and sunset as a farmer, and only in the daytime can he exert effective combat power, but once it is at night, no matter how restrained he is, he will still doze off, and it is difficult to even defend the camp.

It is precisely because of this that the invincible Yellow Turban Army on the Yingchuan battlefield a few years ago was defeated again and again by professional samurai composed of the Northern Army in the dark night. Too many people were awakened at night, and they couldn't even grasp the guns and spears properly, so they became ghosts under the Han saber.

Therefore, according to Yan Bei's idea, the Yan Zhao warriors should be an elite warrior who specializes in wave warfare against strong enemies, and can make them fight at night and be good at night battles.

Seeing that the time is approaching July, the riders who were sent to investigate the news of Jizhou have not yet returned, but the news about Dong Zhuo's entry into Beijing in the Central Plains has been transmitted from the Wenxian riders to Yanbei from the Qingzhou waterway one by one, but there is nothing true about those news, some are early and some are late, and the people in Qingzhou are just hearsay, and they don't know what the real thing is.

There is a very interesting proverb about Luoyang, 'Hou Fei Hou, Wang Fei Wang, thousands of rides to Beimang'.

At the beginning of July, Yanbei was training the sergeants with Zhang Jaw in the Xiangping camp, and he saw a boy in Bingyuan's house spread a report, saying that a Qingzhou celebrity named Tai Shici came to Bingyuan's house to visit, and sent a servant to pass the word, asking Yanbei if he had time to introduce this person to him.
