Chapter 418 The School

Wang Jun glanced into the room, then lifted up his skirt slightly, crossed the threshold and walked in. He handed over a few pages of paper and said, "This is what you want."

Han Qian took it over and saw that it was Wang Jun who had calculated an approximate amount of the money for Guangdezhai School and wrote it down in detail on several pages. The regular characters written with Jiao ink pen were neat and graceful.

He hadn't had a good rest in the past few days, and now his mind was groggy. He took it and glanced at it twice, then put it aside without looking at it carefully and said, "When Feng Liao comes over, I'll give it to him to look at."

After Feng Liao came over, in addition to sharing the affairs of Guangde County with Ji Xiyao, he also shared the responsibility of being the chief bookkeeper of the Chishan Army, recording the office and joining the army at the same time. Even with the help of Feng Liao, Ji Xiyao and others, so many women and children were moved and evacuated.

Everything was complicated, and Han Qian's energy was squeezed to the extreme.

"I showed it to Feng Liao. This time, the use of his pen will be reduced by 80%. But according to your request, this is the most basic condition and cannot be reduced any more." Wang Jun said, biting his lip.

.

Han Qian wanted to set up a school. Under such crude and poor material conditions, it was impossible for all the generals and their children to receive a high level of education. In the early stage, in addition to holding short-term literacy classes, it was also necessary to organize grassroots generals to conduct simple

Military, administrative and production training.

In Maoshan and Donglushan, Han Qian could delegate military and various miscellaneous tasks to Lin Haizheng, Gao Shao, Feng Xuan and others as much as possible. He spared more time to compile some simple teaching materials, and then used

Simple wax paper mimeograph technique reproduction textbook.

Zhao Ting'er, Xi Rong, Du Qiniang, and Du Jiuniang were not around. The Du brothers also came this time, but one was pulled away by Feng Liao to be his deputy, and the other was pulled away by Ji Xiyao to be his deputy. Han Qian could only treat Wang Jun, who was completely

Idle people who had no consciousness of being prisoners used it and helped him with engraving, wax paper, ink, and mimeographing, which were still very delicate technical tasks in the world.

Wax mimeograph technology is much more convenient than the engraving printing that became popular in the middle and late dynasties, but all aspects of the technology are still in their infancy and need to be further improved. Han Qian's handwriting is not neat enough, and the book printed with ink is easy to blur. Wang Junchu used

With an iron-point pen, the words engraved on the iron-mold wax paper are like prints in a dream world, and the printed booklet should be clearer.

Wang Jun wanted to learn Xuzhou's latest cotton spinning technology but was unable to do so, so he settled for the next best thing. In the past month, Wang Jun regarded herself as the school's female teacher, and even took her maids to try to prepare better ink.

Initially, it was a small-scale literacy class in Maoshan, with a single class. No matter how expensive it was, it was still limited.

This time when he moved to Guangde Jiu County, Han Qian wanted to expand the scale of the school and teach a wider range of subjects. Before he went to Nantangzhai, he asked Wang Jun to draw up a new school budget. Unexpectedly, Wang Jun would plan the new school budget.

The budget was drawn up, but it hit a wall in front of Feng Liao.

Seeing Wang Jun's deep, fountain-like beautiful eyes staring at him insistently, Han Qian picked up the budget she had drawn up and took a closer look.

Although even short-term literacy classes and literacy classes provide the most basic training for military officials and production, the scale cannot be small in order to cover such a huge population.

Moreover, it is not a question of how much money is invested. No matter how much gold and silver money Han Qian has in his hands, it will be useless if he cannot exchange it for supplies that are in short supply when facing the blockade of Xuanzhou soldiers and Huzhou soldiers.

Running a school means allocating extra resources that are most in short supply to invest in them.

Feng Liao was captured by Han Qian and was in charge of general logistics. Whenever something was seized, no matter how far away it was, he would send people to the scene immediately to count. He also wanted to go through the pockets of every general on site to prevent any secrets.

As for whoever wants to come to claim supplies, he will be more careful than anyone else.

Han Qian had seen the budget estimates listed by Wang Jun and found that they were indeed necessary investments, so he ordered the guards to invite Feng Liao over.

After half a stick of incense, Feng Liao ran over, but when he entered the yard and saw Wang Jun present, he slipped away without saying hello. After a while, he came over with a bunch of copywriting, threw it in front of Han Qian's case, and said bitterly:

"You have been to Nantang Village these days, and everyone is shouting about the expenses that must be listed in the past two days. These people do not understand our difficulties. If I close my eyes, I will sign and agree.

We don’t have to do anything tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.”

Han Qian smiled and pushed aside the pile of materials that Feng Liao had brought over as "bargaining chips" and said: "If the belts of other places are tightened, the school will be launched as soon as possible."

"Everything must have a priority. It has only been less than ten days since the Chishan Army and so many women and children moved here, and we can't even get a foothold. How can we take care of so many things?" Feng Liao had his persistence and said, "It takes two more days.

In a few months, the Chishan Army can enter the bank of the Qiantang River to raise food, and then there may not be such a shortage."

"The prince of the county said, 'Failure is based on the people's hearts, and success is based on the people's hearts.' You said you understood it, but you still didn't understand it," Han Qian said with a smile, "When I say this truth, almost everyone will nod in agreement.

, but not many have been able to do this throughout the ages.”

Han Qian transferred a large number of grassroots military attachés and officials from Xuzhou, and also made full use of the remnants of Taowu's military households, but most of them were generals, children, and female dependents who had surrendered to the lower class slaves.

They must use cruel and bloody wars to force them to grow up. How much consumption can the Chishan Army withstand?

Short-term literacy classes, literacy classes and various training courses can not only accelerate the growth of active grassroots military attachés and their children, but also continuously cultivate more qualified grassroots military attachés and generals. They can also eliminate unstable factors in a timely manner and help stabilize people's hearts.

, the internal organizational structure and cohesion will be continuously strengthened.

The generals who came from the lower class slaves were of poor quality, not just because of their physical weakness.

The cost of school cannot be saved, let alone postponed.

Han Qian patiently told Feng Liao the truth one by one.

"There are still some material costs that can be reduced." Feng Liao insisted, sitting across the long desk from Han Qian, going over the school's budget estimate one by one with an ink pen, and bargaining to cut off 30% of the expenses.

Han Qian took out the farm granting regulations that he had revised overnight and discussed them with Feng Liao. At noon, Feng Yi rushed back with Zhang Ping angrily and said: "The gate of Langxi City is closed, Gu Zhilong had someone shoot him

Random arrows, if Mr. Zhang and I hadn't run so fast, we might have been stabbed like hedgehogs and carried back to you - if we don't give them a bloody lesson, we don't know how high the sky is."

Zhang Ping said: "The arrows shot by Langxi City are not accurate. They are just making a gesture to show Anning Palace or the Chuzhou Army..."

Zhang Ping believed that Gu Zhilong's attitude was still moderate and there was still room for compromise. Han Qian should still use the connections and influence of the Han and Feng families in Xuanzhou to do more work.

Han Qian pondered for a long time, but did not dwell on this topic. He asked Yuan Guowei: "Where has the Qiuhu Army advanced so far?"

"The Marquis of Xinchang and his Qiuhu Army have arrived at Niuao Mountain to the north of Guangde Village. They plan to rest more fully in Niuao Mountain for two days and then attack Jinzhongling! At this time, Wei Zhen has selected more than a thousand young men from the people of Lishui County. He plans to tomorrow

Let’s meet up with Marquis Xinchang.” Yuan Guowei said.

Niuao Mountain is located at the southern foot of Jieling Mountain, almost thirty miles away from Guangde Cancheng, which is adjacent to the northern foot of Fuyu Mountain.

"The Lishui families still have potential that can be tapped," Han Qian said with a smile.

"There are more than 20,000 county residents, all of whom are members of various families or personal servants who have been raised fat and strong. There are almost 8,000 young men aged 15 to 45. Only 2,000 elites were selected to join the Qiuhu Army.

, of course there is still potential that can be tapped - it’s just that you didn’t make them hate you so much before!” Feng Yi said jokingly.

Under normal circumstances, drawing two or three out of ten can be said to be quite militaristic, but the people of Lishui County have become refugees who have left their hometowns. They have no crops to manage, and all the young and strong people who can afford shields and spears have been incorporated into the camp.

Wu is the normal state of the refugee army.

…………

Gao Shao led the Chishan Army's Second Capital with nine thousand soldiers and horses, and slowly advanced towards Jiudu Mountain and Xianshan Lake located on the eastern edge of Guangde Old County.

Jiudu Mountain is only 60 to 70 meters high and stretches for about three miles from north to south. It is connected with Xianshan Lake in the south and is the boundary between Xuanzhou and Huzhou. It is also the gate to Huzhou from Guangde to the east.

As early as a few days ago, Huzhou governor Huang Hua led state Sima Huang Tianxing to lead 5,000 soldiers and horses, stationed at the southeastern foot of Jiudu Mountain, and used several villages and forts scattered on the east bank of Xianshan Lake to set up camp.

The terrain of Xianshan Lake is slightly higher. The formation of the terrain is related to the unique fold belt terrain between Fuyu Mountain and Jieling Mountain. Only in seasons with abundant rainfall, the lake water will overflow and the rocks will rise from the southeast side of Jiudu Mountain.

The narrow and steep lake mouth pours out and flows into Taihu Lake.

Neither side was able to mobilize warships to enter the Xianshan Lake, which is eight or nine miles long from north to south, to cooperate in the battle.

Huzhou Sima Huang Tianxing deployed five thousand soldiers and horses at the southern foot of Jiudu Mountain and the east bank of Xianshan Lake. He mainly thought that if the Chishan Army really wanted to go around and attack, the flanks and back would be exposed to Huzhou in other directions.

Within the attack range of the soldiers.

Gao Shao then led his troops to advance to the southwest bank of Xianshan Lake, then stopped, occupied a fishing village that had escaped, set up camp, and cut down the trees around it.

At this time, Xinchang Hou Li Pu led the Qiuhu Army along the southern foot of Jieling Mountain, quickly inserted into the Jinzhong Ridge in the north from the rear, entered the Sitian Dun Valley through the gap in the Jinzhong Ridge Mountain, and quickly divided his troops with lightning speed.

They stationed themselves at the two passes connecting Xuanjiao Ridge and Changxing County in the southeast, blocking the entrance for the Huzhou soldiers to reinforce Sitian Dun.

After that, the main force of the Qiuhu Army crossed the Jinzhong Ridge calmly and completed the siege of the Xujiaji Village inside Sitian Dun...
