"I heard that the prince consort, you plan to open a naval subject in the martial arts school?" After chatting for a few gossips, Liu Rengui suddenly took the initiative to ask about the martial arts school. Although he was recuperating at home, he still knew some things in the court.

"Yes, I'm not hiding it from Mr. Liu. I came here today for this matter!" Zhang Zong no longer concealed it and immediately expressed his intention.

"Oh? I'm all an old man waiting to die. Is there anything else I need to help?" Liu Rengui looked at Zhang Zong in surprise and asked. He knew that Zhang Zong had no trouble to enter the Three Treasures Hall, but he couldn't understand why he came?

"Mr. Liu is still stronger and is a model for us. The Martial Arts School has a naval department, but there is a lack of textbooks. When it comes to naval battles, I am afraid that all the civil and military officials in the court will be less than Liu Gong!" Zhang Zong bowed and bowed to Liu Rengui with a smile.

Zhang Zong is not complimenting Liu Rengui. You should know that Liu Rengui was sent to the army and stayed in the navy for many years. Later, in the Battle of Baijiangkou, thousands of Japanese warships were burned out, and more than 40,000 Japanese navy soldiers were either burned or drowned. It was this battle that established Liu Rengui's reputation in the army.

It can be said that the reason why Liu Rengui was able to turn things around was because of his ability to command the navy. In terms of tactical command at sea, he was also the most well-deserved first in the Tang army. In addition, Liu Rengui was originally a civil servant and had a very high theoretical level. As long as he was willing to help, it would be very easy to organize a naval textbook.

Zhang Zong expressed his purpose, and Liu Rengui also thought after hearing this. After a while, he said, "It's not difficult to organize the textbooks. I can help this busy man, but I have a request!"

"Please speak with Mr. Liu!" Zhang Zong said happily when he heard this. He had no intention of asking Liu Rengui to help. For example, he could agree to arrange for Liu Rengui's descendants to enter the martial arts school first. You should know that the usual quota of the martial arts school is very popular. Even if half of it is left for nobles and officials, many people still cannot rank.

"I want to be named in the martial arts school, just like Xue Rengui!" Liu Rengui immediately expressed his request.

Zhang Zong was stunned when he heard this. He did not expect Liu Rengui to make such a request. Speaking of which, although he was founded by him and Pei Xingjian, some famous veterans such as Xue Rengui also worked in the martial arts school and occasionally went to the martial arts school to give a class or two. Although they did not participate in the management of the martial arts school, they were also quite famous among the teachers and students of the martial arts school.

Don’t underestimate this false title of post, because now everyone can see that all the generals and generals in the army will come from martial arts schools in the future, so these students have a bright future. If you can get the favor of these students, you will be able to increase your prestige in the army in the future.

However, Zhang Zong did not expect that Liu Rengui, a civil servant, would also be greedy for prestige in the army. However, after careful consideration, Zhang Zong understood that no one was perfect, Liu Rengui was good at fame, and if he was named in the martial arts school, his descendants would be more convenient to enter the martial arts school in the future. In addition, he was a prime minister himself, so whether his descendants learn literature or martial arts, they could provide great convenience.

Thinking of this, Zhang Zong couldn't help but admire Liu Rengui's etiquette. It seemed that the first time he saw the other person was indeed correct. The other person was indeed a cunning guy.

"No problem, I can agree!" Zhang Zong hesitated for a moment and finally nodded. Although Liu Rengui was just helping to write textbooks, his contribution was quite large in terms of the importance of the navy, so there was no problem in letting him go to the martial arts school.

Seeing Zhang Zong agreeing, Liu Rengui nodded with satisfaction. Then he talked with Zhang Zong about some of the situations of the naval battle. Zhang Zong was also quite interested in this, so he listened very seriously. At the end, he made an appointment with the other party. From tomorrow, Liu Rengui would go to the martial arts school to help write textbooks.

Liu Rengui is worthy of being an expert in naval warfare. With his joining, the compilation of the Naval Science textbook has also gone very smoothly. It is estimated that it will be completed in a few months. Then, the naval generals who were transferred to be gentlemen will be trained and they can teach them.

However, even so, it will take until next year to get the Navy Department to formally recruit students. After all, many preliminary preparations will take time, but Zhang Zong is not in a hurry. After all, the Tang Dynasty's demand for the navy is not particularly urgent now, and they have time to prepare calmly.

Although the Navy Department was going well, Zhang Zong was still a little worried about the situation on the Navy. Di Renjie was ordered to clear out the pirates and the Navy was also dispatched by him. However, the situation at the sea changed rapidly, and Zhang Zong was also worried about Di Renjie. If he did not complete this task, it would be difficult to explain after he came back.

But it’s useless to worry about these things now. After all, the order has just been issued, and if you want to achieve results, you probably have to wait until next year at least.

It was ten days, and Zhang Zong was staying at home to rest. Recently, Wan'er was pregnant. Taiping was a person who was not in charge of business. Fortunately, Ning'er learned to do housework, so Ning'er is temporarily in charge of the family. However, with Wan'er as the big housekeeper, Ning'er was also a little busy, so Zhang Zong sometimes helped Ning'er handle some housework.

However, just as Zhang Zong had breakfast and was accompanying Ning'er to check the account book at home, someone came to report that someone from the Western Regions came to deliver a letter. This made Zhang Zong stunned at first, and then he thought of a possibility, so he strode to the front hall.

I saw a Persian standing in the hall. When I saw Zhang Zong, I immediately stepped forward to salute. He spoke very fluently in Chinese. It was obviously a Persian merchant who often traveled to and from the Tang Dynasty. However, Zhang Zong asked anxiously: "Did Caesar send you to deliver the letter?"

"That's right!" said the Persian merchant, and took off the bag behind him, then took out a thick letter from it and sent it to Zhang Zong.

Zhang Zong took the letter and opened it immediately. Sure enough, he found that it was Caesar's handwritten letter. Speaking of which, since the last news of the death of Ni Ni Niikashi came, Zhang Zong was depressed for a long time. Later, he calmed down and began to pay attention to the situation of the Persian restoration army. After all, although Ni Ni Niikashi was dead, Caesar and others were still there. The Persian restoration army was still there, but the Dashi army was encircling them, so Zhang Zong was also very worried about the situation in Persia.
