Two days later, Shao Rong got his wish and joined the Zhongyong Army's reclamation regiment.
After signing his name on a deed signed by the Yunzhong County Sheriff's Yamen, the Han Tingwei, and the Da Nong Yamen, he became a member of the Zhongyong Army's reclamation regiment.
There is no doubt that his signature action immediately attracted the attention of an officer sent by the Zhongyong Army.
"Are you literate?" This officer, who had scars on his face and must have been a Huns in the past, was particularly curious. He seemed to be trembling even as he spoke.
There was no way, the Zhongyong Army was allowed by the emperor to establish their own reclamation regiment this year.
In the eyes of the people at the top and bottom of the Zhongyong Army, there is no doubt that this is a concrete manifestation of the emperor's acceptance and recognition that they have washed away their sins and will be elevated to the people of the Xia Dynasty.
Everyone is excited, nervous, scared and a little uneasy.
Undoubtedly, for members of the Zhongyong Army, especially those old prisoners of war.
This time the incident of the Reclamation Group is related to whether we can become a truly Zhuxia people recognized and accepted by the world.
In order to run this reclamation regiment successfully and let the world know that the Zhongyong Army is no longer Yi Di.
Han Ru, the captain of the Zhongyong Army, directly ordered that his general, Qin Yuan, who was also recognized as "educated" and "a scholar-bureaucrat" among the Zhongyong Army, retired from active service and became the first captain of the Zhongyong Army's Reclamation Regiment.
.
In addition, from all over the army, more than 30 people who are particularly capable of fighting and have the highest degree of Chineseness were selected and retired from active service. Together, these people formed the instructor frame of the Zhongyong Army Reclamation Regiment.
Of course, having an instructor is not enough.
In the past, the people of the Zhongyong Army were basically incapable of doing anything else except fighting and killing people.
As for farming and guiding the people, he has a dark eye.
But it doesn't matter.
The loyal and brave army is covered!
Tian Jian, a disciple of General Dongchenghou of Chariot and Cavalry, had a scoundrel named Bale, who used to be Zhelan's Guduhou.
At the fortress of Wu Zhou, he was the first to surrender and the first to kneel down, so he was rewarded by Dongchenghou as his disciple as a slave.
Undoubtedly, this is a high honor and appreciation.
And this Bale is now in Chang'an.
What's even more exciting is that the emperor's eldest son, the most promising prince in the empire's future to aspire to the throne, and the master of Bale are now classmates.
Therefore, Han Ru contacted Anton through the relationship in Bale.
Then, a huge price was offered.
It took a total of five hundred Daxia women to poach a whole team of reclamation regiments from the Anton Protectorate.
From the prime minister, to the agricultural officials, blacksmiths, monks, and doctors, they are all available.
Of course, the relationship between the Zhongyong Army does not end there.
Just relying on a servant who is a classmate of the prince cannot accomplish such a big thing.
During this process, another highly respected figure also came to help.
This person is the true backer of Zhongyongjun in the court.
Specially enter the elders, bow high and wait for Han Daidang!
Han Ru, the captain of the Zhongyong Army, was his concubine!
Without the help of this respected Tejin elder and Wuyuan's sacrificial wine, the Zhongyong Army would not have been able to handle such a complicated matter.
However, although the instructor has taken care of everything.
However, the quality and quality of the members of the Reclamation Corps are also the key to the success or failure of the Reclamation Corps.
No one in the Zhongyong Army wanted to see their own reclamation regiment being ridden on the head of other armies.
Because that meant failure, and it also meant that the journey of atonement for myself and others was not over yet. They had not yet washed away their sins and become glorious subjects of the Xia Dynasty.
Therefore, Han Ru strictly ordered the Zhongyong Army to find, discover and win over all high-quality immigrants at all costs.
Naturally, immigrants like Shao Rong who can actually write their own names are definitely high-quality talents in the reclamation group!
This is like when later generations were reformed, if you applied for a job in a company in Shenzhen and spoke fluent English, the boss of the company would be shocked.
Shao Rong knew that this would be the case.
In the past few months, through inquiring and understanding, he learned a lot about the situation and news about the settlement group in Anton - although most of the information he heard was from businessmen, which was very inaccurate.
But there was one thing he was sure of - a person who was literate and could read and write at a basic level would be very popular no matter which settlement group he was in, and would also be a key training target.
In the reclamation regiment in Anton, there used to be some poor alchemists who were just down and out in their hometown, poor and even failed alchemists who couldn't get enough to eat. When they arrived in Anton, they were immediately focused on training as soon as they showed their talent.
Within three years, he had transcended the boundaries between officials and civilians and became an important member of the reclamation regiment, and was highly respected.
Although Shao Rongzhi is not here, he also understands that he who has studied at home for two years, can basically read and do simple arithmetic, will definitely be taken seriously.
And what he needs is attention.
After all, if no one appreciates it, it is basically impossible for him to obtain resources.
Shao Rong knew how difficult it was to become a cuirassier.
His cousin relied on his own extraordinary talent and the full support of his family - in order to train his cousin, his uncle was even reluctant to give up food and clothing. The other Kunzhong sisters also gave their full support and even got married.
My sister constantly brings food, money, silk, and food and wine subsidies from her husband’s family.
Even so, it took my cousin three years to be selected.
Obviously, Shao Rong knew that he did not have as good conditions as his cousin and could not obtain such resources.
And his talent is far inferior to that of his cousin.
Therefore, when this short man who was obviously a Huns asked questions, Shao Rong immediately replied: "The student has been lucky enough to study at home for two years, and he is enlightened..."
Saying this, Shao Rong was also very happy.
Because my uncle's family is trying their best to cultivate his cousin, he has invited a teacher to teach at home.
Shao Rong was able to hitch a ride and go to school with his cousin for free.
Although it was only two years, it made him enlightened.
Although he is not a well-educated person, he is still literate.
When the Xiongnu man heard this, he was overjoyed. To the Zhongyong Army, every literate talent was precious.
If they want to be promoted to Zhu Xia, a key condition is that they themselves must be literate.
However, few scholars are willing to teach them literacy.
For example, such a person is illiterate himself.
At this moment, when he met a literate Chinese, his mood was like that of a future Internet CEO who met a true technology master.
The excitement and excitement were immediately palpable.
He immediately said: "I am the leader of the Zhongyong Army's reclamation team... I used to be a commander in Zhelan of the Xiongnu. Fortunately, the Holy Emperor did not give up and was willing to give me a chance to atone for my sins. I was extremely grateful, so I fought bravely to save the country.
The emperor killed fifteen evil Huns cavalry..." As he said this, he looked at Shao Rong cautiously, feeling uneasy in his heart.
Zheqian wiped his hands, twitched his cheeks, and asked very anxiously: "Since you are literate, can you teach me in the future..."
If someone who had been familiar with this person before saw his appearance, they would probably be shocked.
On the grassland, he was once called Hu Liyedu. Among the Zhelan tribe, he was also considered a lunatic and a thug.
He once led his men and bloodbathed an entire tribe, beheading all men, women, and children and impaling them on wooden stakes.
But now, in front of Shao Rong, he was like a child, full of sincerity.
This is the duality of nomads.
They can be crazy devils, or they can be hospitable and generous friends.
After continuous brainwashing in the Zhongyong Army, this former Zhelan warrior has now completely become a practitioner who wants to wash away his sins and become a member of Zhu Xia.
In order to wash away his sins, he once killed five cavalrymen of the Huns' Luhou tribe on the battlefield.
Through such efforts, he felt that his sins should be almost cleared.
But if he wanted to be elevated to Zhuxia and avoid his descendants from continuing in the hell of the grassland, being brutally enslaved and exploited by the Xiongnu Jizhu clan, he still needed to learn Chinese writing.
In the propaganda of the Zhongyong Army, there are procedures for purifying one's sins and sublimating oneself.
Generally speaking, there are only two ways to cleanse yourself of your sins.
1. Fight for the emperor and kill ten evil and corrupt minions of the Jizhu clan on the battlefield, or liberate a hundred enslaved sinners.
Second, die for kingship and loyalty on the battlefield.
Zhenzhen has naturally already met condition one.
His sins were finally washed away.
However, if you want to be promoted to a member of Zhuxia, you can't just rely on killing people.
There are only three ways to sublimate into Zhu Xia.
1: The Emperor of the Han Dynasty personally receives, commends, or issues an edict to promote him. Only a divine emperor like the Holy Emperor has such power. He can ignore other conditions, directly cleanse a person of all sins, and sublime him to Zhuxia.
Obviously, most people cannot do this method.
2. Obtain the imperial title from the Han Dynasty and raise the title to a public title or above, preferably a title of king.
In this way, the sinners' sins will be washed away in the light of heaven, and their souls will be sublimated. But again, this method is only suitable for a small number of high-ranking officers.
For ordinary people to achieve this level, they need to serve in the army for at least ten years and make repeated military exploits.
The third way is something that everyone can do.
That is to learn Chinese characters, etiquette, and be able to read and write.
In this way, the energy immersed in Chinese characters and rituals by saints such as Zhou Gong and Zhao Gong will cleanse the sinner's body and mind, sublimate his soul, and completely wash away all sins in his body, blood, and soul.
He and his descendants will forever escape the hell of being cursed and despised, and become subjects of the Xia Dynasty protected by the Holy Emperor of China.
Originally, with Zhewen's bravery and status, he could satisfy condition two in three to five years.
But he couldn't wait any longer.
Because, his child, belonging to his bloodline, is about to be born.
In order to prevent the child from being tainted by that terrible curse after birth and embarking on a terrible fate in the future.
Zhenfeng can only sublimate himself as quickly as possible.
The best way, of course, is to find someone to teach you how to read and write, and let the light of Duke Zhou and Duke Zhao, as well as the sages of various schools of thought, soak into your body, blood and soul, and completely wash away all curses and impurities.
For the sake of his son and for the future generations to have a bright future, Zhewen has been begging his grandfather and grandmother everywhere these days, but unfortunately, the only people who are willing to educate Yi Di are Confucian scholars.
And these people were already overwhelmed - a scholar who came to teach among the Zhongyong Army even taught three hundred people at the same time, so that he fell ill from overwork and unfortunately died of illness.
On the day when this highly respected teacher returned home in coffin, the entire loyal army burst into tears.
Three hundred of his disciples personally carried the coffin all the way to his hometown.
Fifteen people even decided to build a thatched hut next to the teacher's grave, imitating the Confucian tradition. They swore to heaven and earth that they would guard the teacher's tomb for three years.
After something like this happened, the Zhongyong Army had a rule that one teacher could only teach a maximum of thirty students.
After the expansion, the entire Zhongyong Army has nearly 20,000 soldiers and tens of thousands of herders who need to be reformed and atone for their sins.
There are many monks and very little rice, so you can imagine how fierce the competition is.
Unfortunately, I am relatively stupid and it is very difficult to learn cultural knowledge.
Until now, he hasn't even learned how to hold a pen.
This is really a tragedy.
But for future generations, for descendants, and for the son who is about to be born, he must do everything he can to learn to read, write, and read as soon as possible, so that the glory of Zhou Gong and Zhao Gong can shine into his heart and soul.
Undoubtedly, Shao Rong became his hope at this moment.
Shao Rong smiled slightly and said: "Since I have this intention, I will naturally be waiting for you at any time..."
After hearing Shao Rong's answer, Zhewen's face turned into a smile and he immediately bowed: "Excuse me, sir!"
I just asked this person to teach me how to write and read. There was no need to become a teacher.
In Zhewen's heart, he had someone to study under - a well-known academic scholar in the world, recognized as one of the literary giants of the time, Shen Gong or his disciple Zhu Xian, who was awarded the title of Two Thousand Stone Doctor of the Book of Songs by the emperor.
Well, in the past two years, the influence of the Chu Poetry School has been expanding day by day among the Zhongyong Army, the vast number of Xiongnu prisoners of war, and even Dawan and Daxia prisoners of war.
In fact, many people have been moved by the charm, mind and personality of Chu Shi School scholars and have become their fanatical and devout followers.
If this was a DND world, relying on the power of these people's faith, Shen Gong, the spiritual leader of the Chu Shi Sect, would be enough to become a god, and he would have powerful divine power!
………………………………
Under Zhewen's publicity, the news that a literate young man had joined the Reclamation Corps soon spread to all the officers of the Zhongyong Army, making everyone excited.
Not long after, several more people came to the door and asked Shao Rong to teach them how to read.
Shao Rong naturally agreed wholeheartedly.
But soon, Shao Rong discovered that even among this loyal army's reclamation regiment, there were still hidden dragons and crouching tigers.
