Chapter 283

At the foot of Han Mountain, barbarians gathered.

Since the Wu barbarians moved the barbarians outside Shangyong City to Hanshan Mountain last year, the foot of Hanshan Mountain has become a place where barbarians live.

Hanshan relies on the Han River, with abundant water resources and fertile land, making it very suitable for living.

The Wuman led the barbarians to build a stronghold at the foot of Han Mountain, build houses, dig ditches, and connect water conservancy. After four months of development, a settlement village has been formed. Countless barbarians traveled between Han Mountain and Nanzheng County.

, carry the hunted beasts to the city and sell them in exchange for the necessities needed for life.

At the same time, the barbarians also changed their way of life. They used to make a living by hunting, but now they cultivate farmland and live a life of working at sunrise and resting at sunset. March in spring is a good time for spring plowing. The open area at the foot of Han Mountain

A large area of ​​farmland has been opened up, and barbarians wearing coarse linen clothes, bird feathers in their hair, and bright smiles on their faces are cultivating the fields.

After Wang Can finished handling Zhang Lu's affairs and appeased Diao Chan and Cai Yan, he left Nanzheng.

After leaving the county capital, Wang Can took a carriage to the foot of Hanshan Mountain. Looking at the vast farmland and the vast roads, he felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart. This was Hanzhong under his rule.

Driving all the way, all I saw and heard were busy scenes.

The people's faces were filled with smiles and they were busy with spring plowing with great enthusiasm.

Arriving at the gate of Barbarian Dazhai, Wuman had been waiting for him for a long time. Wuman saw the carriage that Wang Can was riding in early. When Wang Can got off the carriage, he hurriedly went forward to greet him, bowed and said: "Wuman pays homage to your lord."

.”

Wang Can nodded and said, "Let's go and see where the barbarians live."

Seeing that Wang Can was going to check out Man Man's residence, Wu Man smiled with joy from the bottom of his heart.

Entering Dazhai, Wuman took Wang Can and walked to the place where the barbarians lived. The houses of the barbarians were very solidly built. All the houses were built with high-quality wood, with solid foundations and very stable. The houses were neat and clean, and the houses were open to the public.

It is transparent and bright. Compared with the original life in the mountains and forests, all aspects have been greatly improved.

After bypassing his residence, Wuman led Wang Can towards the training ground where Lu Meng was training.

About half an hour later, Wang Can and Wuman arrived at the training venue.

The entire training ground is in the shape of a square, ten feet long and ten feet wide. It is spacious and can accommodate nearly a thousand people.

On the inner edge of the venue, there are weapon racks. There are knives, guns, axes, axes, halberds... eighteen kinds of weapons on the racks. However, although there are many weapons, all the weapons are made of wood.

Moreover, the swords made of wood are the heaviest. The blades of these wooden swords are not sharp and very blunt, but they are solid and are very painful when struck on the body.

On the left side of the field, there are neatly arranged archery targets, which are used for training.

Wang Can looked at the weapons in the field and asked: "Wu Man, did you arrange these weapons?"

Wuman shook his head, with a look of admiration on his face, and said: "My lord, all the wooden weapons were made by the junior general Lu Meng at the command of the junior general. This was also the very beginning. All the children practiced with real swords and guns.

Because the children were too young to use swords and spears freely, many of them were injured. The young general thought hard for a long time before he came up with this method."

It’s actually like this!

In this regard, Wang Can could only use two words to describe Lu Meng.

clever!

The little guy is indeed a future star and has a very flexible mind.

Wang Can thought for a while and asked: "Wuman, how does Amon arrange training?"

Wuman said: "My lord, the general's daily training mainly includes three aspects. The first is actual combat with real swords and guns; the second is to lead everyone to contact with bows and arrows; and the third is to let a hundred people use wooden swords and guns to practice sparring.

"

Wang Can said: "Using wooden knives and guns to practice is a good method. But didn't you say that these children will hurt each other if they use real knives and guns? What is going on in actual combat?"

Wuman said: "My lord, actual combat is not about dividing a hundred people into two groups for training, but a young general leading a hundred people to use real swords and real guns to hunt wild beasts in the mountains and forests. Competing with the wild beasts and wolves in the mountains and forests can better train one's strength."

The courage of a hundred boy soldiers has been tempered for several months, and the effect is very good."

Wang Can smiled and nodded, very satisfied with Lu Meng.

Lu Meng is only thirteen years old. He is already quite capable for this age. Just as Wang Can was deep in thought, thinking about how to deal with Lu Meng's matter, a slightly hoarse voice with a child's voice suddenly came from outside the camp.

Shout: "Teacher!"

Wang Can followed the sound and saw Lu Meng running towards Wang Can quickly with a happy face.

"Disciple Lu Meng, pay your respects to the teacher!"

Lu Meng ran up to Wang Can, clasped his hands together, raised them to the top of his head, then lowered his head to salute, and bowed deeply to Wang Can.

After four months of not seeing each other, Lu Meng has grown a lot taller. Compared with the original, after four months of hard training, Lu Meng's body looks strong and capable. Although his immature face still has a hint of childishness, he looks calm and steady, especially his clear eyes.

, it is as clear as a spring water, sparkling and sparkling.

Wang Can saw that Lu Meng's body was covered with dirt, and asked with a smile: "Amen, have you gained anything today?"

Lu Meng straightened his back, patted his chest, and said loudly and proudly: "Teacher, my disciple led a hundred soldiers into the forest today and hunted two wild boars, a young tiger, as well as hares and several pheasants. These are all mine."

Today we can have a full meal again with the results we have achieved with the soldiers."

After speaking, Lu Meng turned around and ordered: "Cheng Qiang, Huang Wei, bring up the spoils."

"promise!"

Two crisp sounds came, and two children about eleven years old stood up, and then quickly gathered thirty children and brought all the items up. Two wild boars with rough skin and thick flesh, and a young tiger

, there are also some pheasants, hares... all kinds of things, all the items are piled up in the venue, it's hard to count.

Wang Can looked at the livestock all over the ground with a look of contemplation on his face. After a moment, he asked with a smile: "Amon, you led a hundred soldiers to hunt so many livestock. It is impossible to eat them all at once. What are you going to do with them?"

"

Lu Meng looked at Wang Can, his eyes rolling.

Intuitively, he thought Wang Can was testing him.

Normally, Lu Meng wouldn't even think about it. Without any hesitation, he would definitely say to keep the uneaten livestock and continue to eat the next day. However, Wang Can wanted to take the exam, so it definitely couldn't be too simple. Lu Meng did not answer directly, but

He was thinking about how to satisfy Wang Can.

After being silent for a long time, Lu Meng said slowly: "Teacher, since there are too many livestock and we cannot eat them all at once, we should select the food we usually eat and sell the remaining livestock to exchange for money.

"

Wang Can looked neither sad nor happy, and continued to ask: "What are you going to do with your livestock if you exchange them for money?"

Lu Meng was looking forward to Wang Can's praise, but when he saw that Wang Can's expression was neither sad nor happy, he was inevitably a little disappointed.

However, Lu Meng quickly adjusted his mentality and said: "The art of war says that meritorious deeds must be rewarded and mistakes must be punished. The money obtained from selling livestock can not only be used to purchase ordnance and food, but also to reward soldiers and encourage morale. Teacher

, what disciple said is correct?"

"Hahaha……"

After Wang Can heard this, he clapped his hands and laughed, with a warm smile on his face.

When Lu Meng saw this, his tense face also showed a bright smile, he was happy to win Wang Can's praise.

Wang Can reached out and touched Lu Meng's head and said: "Amen said it very well. As a general, rewards and punishments should be clear, public and private affairs should be separated, and public affairs should not be abolished for private purposes. It seems that Amen has studied the art of war with all his heart, which is very good.

, you have lived up to the expectations of being a teacher. However, even if you have achieved good results for the time being, the sages have said it well: Heaven moves in a strong direction, and a gentleman should strive to constantly strive for self-improvement. Only by unremitting efforts can he achieve success in learning, do you understand?"

Lu Meng didn't even think about it and said loudly: "Teacher, I understand!"

After receiving Wang Can's affirmation, Lu Meng felt as if he had been given a shot of blood, and his face flushed with excitement.

Wang Can saw Lu Meng's expression and felt funny in his heart. Once upon a time, when he was a recruit in the army, he also worked tirelessly to get praise from the instructors. When he was praised, he would also show a naive smile like Lu Meng. Wang Can was deeply

He took a breath and said, "Amon, you are pretty good at reading. How are your martial arts skills?"

Wang Can was about to take a martial arts test, which made Lu Meng, who was in a state of excitement, quickly calm down.

Lu Meng said: "Teacher, I will show you the bow and arrow first."

After a pause, he turned around and ordered: "Huang Wei, bring your bow and arrows!"

"promise!"

Huang Wei stood behind Lu Meng. After receiving the order, he turned around to get his bow and arrows. After a while, Huang Wei walked up to Lu Meng with a short bow and said: "General, your short bow and bow and arrows."

I was even more satisfied when I went to see Lu Meng and a hundred boys behave and behave with military titles.

Lu Meng took the bow and arrow, holding the bow in his left hand and the arrow in his right hand. He walked slowly to the field and stopped fifty meters away from the target. He turned around and said loudly: "Teacher, look at the disciple's arrow hitting the target."

Heart." After saying that, Lu Meng put the bow and arrow on the bowstring, aimed at the target in front, and shouted: "hit!"

The bow and arrow flew out of the string and headed straight for the target.

"bump!"

Not surprisingly, the bow and arrow hit the target's center. The huge force caused the target to shake twice, and the tail feathers of the bow and arrow also trembled and swayed.

"Pah! Pah!..."

Wang Can clapped his hands in celebration with a look of joy on his face.

Lu Meng is only thirteen years old now, and the fact that his archery skills have reached this level shows that he has put in a lot of effort.
