After Liu Xie explained it once, Wang Can explained the issues involved in the imperial examination again, explaining clearly one by one the many details that need to be paid attention to in the imperial examination. After explaining all the questions clearly, Wang Can stopped talking.
Wang Can's words shocked the courtiers. In terms of age, Wang Can was not very old, but Wang Can's perspective was very unusual. Even Wang Can's martial arts skills were unparalleled.
Everything about Wang Can is too mysterious.
There were even officials in the court who investigated Wang Can's past. They only knew that Wang Can suddenly appeared in Langya Kingdom, and then rose rapidly to the present day.
Liu Xie didn't want to waste any more time and continued: "Gentlemen, do you have any other questions?"
Jia Xu stepped forward and said: "May I ask Your Majesty, I am going out with Mr. Wang for training this time. I don't know when I will return again."
Liu Xie looked directly at Wang Can.
At this time, Wang Can did not speak, but said through a secret message: "The Imperial Examination Ceremony will be held, and then we will return to Luoyang."
Liu Xie was already familiar with this method.
Therefore, Liu Xie paused briefly and then said: "I will return when the imperial examination is held in the imperial examination hall. Although this year's imperial examination is the first time, it will be a bit rushed, but in the future it will be more formal and it will be much better."
According to the established plan, the imperial examination and the talent promotion ceremony will be held every three years and must continue."
"Here!"
Jia Xu bowed in response.
The others also spoke one after another and asked Liu Xie questions one by one. Liu Xie responded to the courtiers' questions with ease. Even if there were very difficult problems, Wang Can helped and they were all solved easily.
After all the problems in the court were resolved, Wang Can and Liu Xie left Luoyang again.
This time, Wang Can took Liu Xie north.
This is to go to Jizhou, then go from Jizhou to Bingzhou, and then from Bingzhou to Youzhou. This is Wang Can's next plan.
Previous footprints were mainly concentrated in Liangzhou.
Nowadays, it is concentrated in Jizhou.
In particular, this area of Jizhou was once a place where Yellow Turban bandits and Black Mountain bandits were rampant. Even though many large counties in Jizhou were prosperous, in fact, there were many bandits in Jizhou.
In the early years, the Gold Rebellion gathered in Hanoi, Zhongshan, Wuji and other places.
Wang Can and Liu Xie went northeast together and came to Hanoi County.
In fact, in the north of Hanoi County, close to the Taihang Mountains, there is a mountain called Black Mountain, which hides countless common people and bandits, called the Black Mountain Army.
The leader of the Black Mountain Army is named Zhang Yan.
This man's original name was Chu Yan. He was a knight-errant in his early years. Later, after he started a rebellion, he followed Zhang Niujiao to fight in all directions. He was adopted by Zhang Niujiao as his adopted son and then designated as his heir.
After Zhang Niujiao's death, Zhang Yan inherited the foundation and took charge of all the Montenegrin armies.
However, Zhang Yan is nominally the commander-in-chief, but in fact, he is an existence similar to the leader of the alliance. Because the Black Mountain Army is spread throughout the Taihang Mountains, it is not a real army hierarchy, but is governed by various leaders, and everyone respects Zhang Yan
That's all.
Although the Black Mountain Army is said to have hundreds of thousands of troops and more than 100,000 civilians on the surface, in fact, the number of troops under Zhang Yan's real command is not too many.
Wang Can's intention to go north this time was to target the Black Mountain Army.
The Taihang Mountains are a vast area.
Not only that, the strategic depth is very wide, making it difficult for large armies to encircle and suppress. Under such circumstances, the Black Mountain Army led by Zhang Yan is entrenched in it and cannot be destroyed at all.
Along the way, Liu Xie also learned about the customs and customs of the Northeast.
In the land of Liangzhou, Liu Xie witnessed the people at the lowest level, and also witnessed the cunning and bloodshed of the Hu people. He understood the bright and dark sides of human nature, and his character gradually matured.
Now, it’s time to expand our knowledge.
However, in today's Hanoi County, because Cao Cao serves as the Sili Colonel, the entire Hanoi County belongs to the Sili area. Under Cao Cao's rule, the lives of the people in Hanoi County are getting better day by day.
Many civilians in the Black Mountain Army have already come down the mountain one after another.
This is also the reason why the Montenegrin Army is getting weaker and weaker.
In fact, the chaos in the world has been calmed down, officials in various places have made constant adjustments, the regions in the world have become peaceful, the lives of the people have become better and better, and the number of people who cause chaos has decreased.
Wang Can had no doubts about Cao Cao's political ability.
After going north to the northernmost part of Hanoi County and approaching Heishan, Wang Can took Liu Xie and went straight to Heishan.
The two of them reached the bottom of the mountain and kept going up.
After walking for about a quarter of an hour, no one came to stop me, but when I was about to go up the mountain, I was stopped by someone, but a soldier carrying a big bow and a sword in his hand came out and shouted: "You two, go down the mountain immediately.
, you are not allowed to enter Montenegro again without permission.”
This soldier was specially kept under surveillance.
When they saw someone going in the direction of the Black Mountain Army, they immediately came out to stop them. If they were just outing and walking down the mountain, they wouldn't bother them. But Wang Can and Liu Xie continued to walk up the mountain, and then continued into the back of the mountain.
Maybe, they will come across the location where the Montenegrin Army is stationed, so the soldiers will come out to stop them.
Wang Can said: "I came to see Zhang Yan. Since you are out, please lead the way."
The soldier asked: "Who are you?"
Wang Can said: "Is it important who I am?"
"certainly!"
The soldier held his head high and said loudly: "If you were a dog officer of the government, wouldn't it be a bad thing? Therefore, you must explain your identity. Otherwise, I can't take you to see the commander."
Wang Can smiled and said: "What a coincidence, I am indeed from the government."
"Dog officer, die!"
When the soldiers heard this, they swung their swords and charged towards Wang Can.
Just at the moment when he rushed towards Wang Can with his sword, Wang Can flicked his sleeve, and suddenly, a powerful force of energy rushed out, forming like a wall in front of Wang Can. The soldier's sword fell down with a clang.
, the force of the counter-shock directly caused the sword to fly away, and even the soldiers were startled.
Kick! Kick!
The soldiers were so frightened that they stepped back one after another and shouted: "Are you a human or a ghost?"
Wang Can said: "I am the official of the imperial court. Naturally I am a human being. How could I be a ghost? Okay, it's time to lead the way."
The soldier rolled his eyes, turned around and ran out. He thought he had encountered a ghost today and wanted to escape. But after he ran a few steps, Wang Can raised his hand, and the strong energy flowed, and he immediately trapped the soldier.
, making the soldier float in the air.
This time, the soldiers were even more frightened to death.
There was a look of horror on his face.
what happened?
The person in front of me actually seemed to have the magic of ghosts and gods.
Wang Can did not embarrass the soldier. As soon as he let go, the Gang Qi was withdrawn. The soldier fell to the ground like a doctor, and he asked again: "Why, do you want to keep running now?"
"no no……"
The soldiers stuttered a bit when they spoke.
He was completely scared in front of Wang Can.
The soldier was also in his early thirties. In the early years, I heard someone mention the great sage Zhang Jiao, who was also able to control ghosts and gods, and even spread beans to form soldiers.
Could it be that the person in front of me has the ability of a great teacher?
The soldier kept thinking in his own mind, but he did not dare to disobey, he could only lead the way honestly.
After climbing to the halfway point of the mountain, we walked up for a while, and then started to go down the mountain again, and continued to the interior of Taihang Mountain. This road kept winding around mountains and rivers, and we walked for nearly an hour before we came to the Black Mountain Army.
station.
This area is quite flat.
However, there are also layers of mountains, like terraces.
Many people gathered here.
This was the advantage of the Black Mountain Army gathering here in history, because the government outside the mountain could not find the place where these people lived and could not destroy the Black Mountain Army.
The soldiers led Wang Can and his party to a large village.
Facing Wang Can, the soldiers were already intimidated and did not dare to delay. They asked Wang Can to wait for a moment and then went to report. Not long after, they saw a middle-aged man with a tall but short figure walking out.
This person is Zhang Yan.
Zhang Yan was nearly thirty years old. He was not tall, but he was extremely strong and gave people a strong feeling. After he saw the visitor, he asked, "May I ask, is this the Emperor's Master Wang Can?"
Previously, Zhang Yan heard reports from soldiers that he had met a demon-like person who could control magic, fly out of thin air, and resist his sword, which was very strange.
After Zhang Yan heard this, he combined the soldier's description of Wang Can's situation and the fact that Wang Can was with Liu Xie, so he immediately made a judgment. Zhang Yan was not a soldier and had no knowledge. On the contrary, although Zhang Yan's Black Mountain Army was entrenched in the mountains
, but in fact, he has been paying attention to the news from the outside world, especially now that more and more people are leaving, he is more aware of the outside world.
Zhang Yan never stopped the people from leaving.
The Black Mountain Army gathered countless civilians in the mountains because they could no longer survive.
Zhang Yan knew very well that a few years ago, Wang Can led people outside Hulao Pass. He heard people say that Wang Can killed the cavalry who came forward with a single blow, and even easily killed Dong Zhuo, making the world peaceful again.
Even the state pastors in the world were deposed and the world became stable, it was Wang Can who worked hard to achieve this.
So he knows Wang Can well.
Wang Can smiled and said: "I didn't expect that Zhang Yan would have such vision. Yes, I am Wang Can. The people around me are the current emperors."
After Zhang Yan heard this, she quickly saluted.
Wang Can said: "Zhang Yan, I came to the mountain today to ask you to disband the Black Mountain Army for one thing. In addition, the imperial court appointed you as the governor of Hanoi. Are you willing to go to Hanoi to take up the post?"
Reviews of Zhang Yan's reputation are pretty good.
Especially along the way, Wang Can and Liu Xie learned a lot about Zhang Yan. They knew that Zhang Yan did not kill innocent people indiscriminately, nor was he a person who slaughtered people wantonly, so Wang Can and Liu Xie decided to let Zhang Yan serve as the prefect of Hanoi.
Decide.
After Zhang Yan heard this, she said without any hesitation: "I obey my orders!"
In the mountains, it is not a long-term solution after all.
Now that the world is at peace, the Black Mountain Army will gradually be destroyed unless he really wants to cause chaos. However, Zhang Yan is unwilling because he does not want his soldiers to die in the war one by one.
Wang Can said: "In that case, let's make arrangements. I will give you three days. After three days, all the Black Mountain Army will be disbanded. In addition, you will also go out together."
"Here!"
Zhang Yan immediately agreed.
Three days are enough for him to arrange everything. (To be continued)
