: Three levels in a row

Everyone here has heard about the opening of the Wuzhai Fortress. Yet, until now, the number of people who have hired workers and businessmen who have come to Wuzhai Fort, Wuzhai Fort, and the number of farmers and farmers who have brought farms from all over the country has exceeded tens of thousands. Among these tens of thousands of people, there are more than a thousand children of appropriate age, and there are many half-year-old young people who can receive education.

Huang Laifu naturally knew the importance of education, so he planned to build a university as early as last year's harvest. After August of this year, he decided to break ground to allow the children of Wuzhaibao military households to receive education as soon as possible.

However, his university is a little different from the Ming Dynasty. In addition to teaching children some traditional etiquette, archery, books, and numbers, the school also teaches some agricultural skills, some business management knowledge, and some military training. After these children become successful, in addition to some of them participating in the imperial examinations, most of them will stay in Wuzhaibao for development.

After the news came out, both the military households and the garrisons of Wuzhai Fort were very supportive and agreed. Even the officials of nearby prefectures and counties praised them very much after hearing this. All the words were inferior, but only those who were studying high. The respect for knowledge, no matter who is in the mind of the Ming Dynasty, is deeply rooted in this concept.

Even some merchants in Wuzhai Fort intend to donate enthusiastically to win the favor of the military households of Wuzhai Fort and leave a good reputation.

As for Wuzhaibao University Hall to be opened, there are more than a thousand students. Except for some of these teachers who can poach from the nearby Weixue Confucian Temple, the rest of them will naturally be hired from some local literati of Wuzhaibao.

The monthly salary of two taels of silver per month is enough to make many literati who are doing accounting. Perhaps some literati who come to Wuzhaibao may not care about their monthly salary, but obviously being a teacher is much more elegant than a accounting account.

After hearing this person say this, Zhang Chengde and Yang Dongping and others showed attention. Zhang Chengde excitedly said, "Brother Mingding is right. We are well-read in poetry and books, and we can't always be covered with dust and do accounting. We are burying what we learned in our hearts and are ashamed of our teachings. We have made a decision for our brothers. After the Wuzhaibao University is established, we will apply for the job. I wonder what your brothers plan?"

Yang Dongping said: "Brother Zhang said this, so I will naturally follow."

Yang Dongping had actually found out that he worked as a teacher in Wuzhaibao University. Even ordinary teachers have a monthly salary of two taels of silver every month, and the school also provides accommodation. Of course, he would not let go of such a good opportunity.

After hearing what the two said, everyone also made a statement and made an appointment to apply for the job together. If they succeed, they will teach during the day, relax what they have learned in their chests, and go to the cottage to sing the wind and the moon in their spare time. I am afraid it will be a fairy-like day.

As these people said, on August 5, the Wuzhaibao University Hall, which invested 3,000 taels of silver, broke ground on a small hill not far from the Wuzhaibao vegetable garden. For this university hall, Wuzhaibao is very enthusiastic from top to bottom. Many military households come to help voluntarily every day after finishing their own affairs.

At the same time, the first clinic in Wuzhaibao was also established. In the past, it was inconvenient for military households in Wuzhaibao to see a doctor. Although there were some doctors like doctors in the fort, they had few resources. This clinic was directly managed by the Wuzhaibao Cultural and Health Group, and had strong financial resources. It could vigorously hire famous doctors from various places and purchase medicinal materials.

Huang Laifu attaches great importance to this clinic because he not only treats the Wuzhaibao military households, but also takes care of the health and epidemic prevention work of Wuzhaibao. Especially at this time, the plague disease was a big killer. With the Wuzhaibao Medical Center, Huang Laifu also reassured.

In addition, a nursing home in Wuzhaibao has also begun to be built, specializing in adopting some poor and helpless elderly people, and they are given food and cloth every month. They will visit and condolences during the Chinese New Year and holidays so that they can enjoy their old age.

China's idea of ​​respecting the elderly has a long history. Governments of all dynasties have had preferential policies for the elderly. In the Ming Dynasty government, there were also special laws for adopting orphans and elderly people. The "Ming Law: House Law" stipulates: "Anyone who is widowed, widowed, orphans and sick, is poor and has no relatives to rely on and cannot survive. Those who are in the private sector should adopt but do not adopt should be 60 rods; if clothes and food should be given, and officials are reduced, they will be judged as a stolen person."

In the 19th year of Hongwu (1386), all prefectures and counties in the world must set up Yangjiyuan, and take in some widows, widows, widows, orphans who have no support. Every year, Liushimi, and one district of Yangjiyuan in five cities in Beijing, and adopt all the poor. The censors of the city discovered beggars. All people who were civilians sent Shuntian Prefecture to Yangjiyuan, and those who were military sent flags and candles to support them.

The Yangjiyuan was implemented well in the early Ming Dynasty, but in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, due to the national financial resources and corruption, this system was mostly in name only. Not to mention the prefectures and prefectures, officials vigorously embezzled the money and rice of the Yangjiyuan. Even in some Yangjiyuans in the capital, those widowed and widowed and orphans received less than three stones of rice a year.

As a military fort, Wuzhai Fort was so poor that it was very poor. Of course, there was no saying that Wuzhai Fort was becoming richer and richer, so the welfare issues of the Wuzhai Fort military households were naturally put on the agenda. The establishment of Wuzhai Fort Health Care House also made Huang Laifu and others even more famous, enhanced the cohesion of Wuzhai Fort military households, and made outsiders yearn for the life of Wuzhai Fort.

When Huang Laifu was busy with the Wuzhai Fort, Huang Laifu and Tian Dafu defeated the horse thieves at Shenchi Fort, and they also reported to the capital from the Shanxi Dusi and Shanxi Town. To be honest, although Huang Laifu and Tian Dafu were in the family, one belonged to the garrison system and the other belonged to the military town system, and they were not in the same camp. Therefore, their reporting channels were also different, but they eventually reported to the Ministry of War.

Among them, Liu Fuyu, the Shanxi Dusifu, was very concerned about Huang Laifu's military achievements and wrote a special document on the memorial service. In addition, the Ming Dynasty's garrison system has not shown her face for a long time. Huang Laifu has made contributions and Liu Fuyu has also received rewards. In addition, Huang Laifu has been filial to Lord Liu, no wonder Lord Liu attaches so much importance to Huang Laifu.

There were some twists and turns on Tian Dafu's side. Shenchi Fort was directly under the jurisdiction of Shanxi Town, and the general of Shanxi Town was Liu Ming'an. For Liu Ming'an, Huang Laifu and Tian Dafu were all people he was tired of. Huang Laifu was different from him and he couldn't deal with it. But he still had a way to Tian Dafu, and in the end, most of Tian Dafu's military merits were taken away by Liu Ming'an.

After the documents that reported the victory arrived in the capital, the Ministry of War was in charge. At present, the promotion, substitution, award, award, and reward of military officers of the Ming Dynasty were all under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War. After checking the incident, the doctor and Yuanwailang and others, they all had all the evidence. This matter did not kill good people and make contributions, but was a real contribution.

If Tian Dafu from Shenchi Castle can defeat the horse thieves, it is acceptable to people, after all, he is all elite battalions. But it is surprising that Huang Laifu's guard army also defeated the horse thieves.

At present, the soldiers of the garrisons in various places have become poor farming farmers. They fled continuously and had no intention of fighting. If they could disperse without a single blow when they encountered the enemy, it would make people feel abnormal, let alone defeating hundreds of horse thieves with two hundred soldiers, beheading more than 200 levels, and seizing countless.

However, this matter is true and there are various evidences. Although the officials of the Ministry of War Wuxuan Qing Literature Department have also heard of the reputation of Huang Laifu of the Wuzhai Fort, it is all because he was able to farm. When could the Wuzhai Fort Guard Army still kill the enemy like this? With a strange mood, they agreed on military merits and reported to the Minister of War Shi Xing.

After receiving the reported document, Shi Xing was a little surprised, but he had a good impression of Huang Laifu and did not leave any difficulties at the moment. He directly drafted the official documents and prepared to be agreed upon by the cabinet first, and finally reported to Emperor Wanli. In the Ming Dynasty, whether it was the thousand households and hundreds of households in the garrison system, the commander-in-chief, or the generals of the military and town system, the final appointment rights were in the hands of the emperor, and the Ministry of War had no right to decide.

In Wenyuan Pavilion.

The weather was a little cool. In August, Beijing during the Little Ice Age, the weather turned cold. Many cabinet ministers in the cabinet all added thick clothes at the same time.

Before the case, the chief minister Shen Shixing read the memorial drafted by Shi Xing, the Minister of War, and said in shock: "Two hundred soldiers defeated 500 horse thieves and beheaded 259 levels. When did the soldiers of the Five Village Fortress become so powerful? I remember they were the guards?"

Shi Xing said: "No wonder the old master was surprised. When I first saw the memorial, I also felt it was incredible. This matter was absolutely true."

Seeing Shen Shixing and Shi Xing like this, several cabinet ministers who were busy in Wenyuan Pavilion, such as Xu Guo, Wang Lin, Zeng Tongheng and others, stopped reading and reviewing and looking at the two of them. After reading Shi Xing's memorial, everyone was also surprised.

After confirming with Shi Xing repeatedly, Wang Lin, the Minister of Revenue, sighed: "I didn't expect that Huang Laifu was very powerful in farming and fighting wars, and it was also equally powerful. It was really unimaginable." He wanted to say something but wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it.

Shen Shixing said to Shi Xing: "Have you discussed the matter of the Ministry of War to set up the merits of the Wuzhai Fortress?"

Shi Xing said: "The Wuxuansi agreed that Huang Laifu led 200 troops and beheaded 256 levels, and rewarded 5 taels of silver for each level. He captured the thief Liu Shaoan and rewarded 156 taels of silver. In addition, the garrison positions of Wuzhai Fort were promoted to the second ranks, and the soldiers under his post were rewarded varying."

Shen Shixing nodded, agreed with Shi Xing's opinion, and prepared a vote. The other cabinet ministers had no problem. These people were all weird figures. At present, Emperor Wanli attaches great importance to Huang Laifu, and Huang Laifu's contributions this time was true, so they naturally would not say anything.

In the Ming Dynasty Palace.

After receiving Shi Xing's memorial, Emperor Wanli was also very happy. In fact, the Jinyiwei and Eunuch Ma had reported the secret letters about Huang Laifu's defeat of the horse thief at Shenchi Fort, which was several days earlier than the official documents of the Ministry of War. However, of course, the rewards would need to be agreed upon by the Ministry of War before he could handle it.

Emperor Wanli was shocked by Huang Laifu's battle and was also very happy. The changes in the soldiers of Wuzhai Fort made him think of a thought: If the guards in the world could become as powerful as Wuzhai Fort, then there would be no need for those recruiting troops, and how much military expenditure would be saved to Daming that year.

Emperor Wanli thought to himself that Huang Laifu is a treasure. Not only is he good at farming and management, he can earn him a lot of money in a year. He is also a good war and is a talent and must be rewarded heavily.

Thinking of this, he looked at Shi Xing's memorial in his hand. The Ministry of War agreed to be beheading and rewarding silver and joining the second rank. Huang Laifu was promoted to the commander-in-chief of Zhenxiwei and was given the title of Dushi.

Emperor Wanli snorted, thinking that the people from the Ministry of War were stingy, so Emperor Wanli didn't plan to add the silver reward, but he picked up the red pen and annotated a few lines of words on the memorial.

The last Shangyu was: "Check the guards of the Qianhushou Wuzhai Fort, Huang Laifu, who is loyal and brave, and defeated the bandits. He was specially promoted to the guards of the Qianhushou Wuzhai Fort to be the guards of the Qianhushou Wuzhai Fort. Huang Laifu, the former Qianhu, was promoted to the commander of the Wuzhai Guard, and was given a guerrilla rank, and rewarded a thousand taels of silver. I hope he is loyal and brave, and I will not let my wishes down, and I admire this!"
