To become one of the Junior Tutor's own people, one must stand out from among ten thousand.
Choosing 5,000 out of 10,000 seems like a high probability, but who can guarantee they won't be one of the remaining 5,000?
General Wei said the selection would begin in late May, but it is now mid-April, and there is not much time left for the selection process, yet the selection criteria have not been determined.
People with ideas are often unsure of themselves.
It would be great if we could take this opportunity to ask the Junior Tutor about his visit to the military camp today!
Moonlight was unaware of the ulterior motives of the soldiers who were getting closer and closer.
She followed the others toward the armory.
Master, Wei Shouyi and the others did not give these people ideological education lessons as you requested.
Why punish Yu Boming and his comrades by making them teach ordinary soldiers to read and write? Do you expect them to take the imperial examinations?
Everyone nodded in agreement, though they were also full of questions.
The ideological education classes have shown initial results. The current treatment of these people means that they are destined to be soldiers on the battlefield in the future. If they don't hone their skills, they could be taken away in a war.
Is it necessary for the Junior Tutor to spend so much effort training these people to read and write?
The crowd hadn't yet realized that they were already viewing these people as expendable resources and cannon fodder with some ability.
Yu Boming and the others readily agreed and were able to carry out the plan without any compromise. However, their thinking was similar to that of their fathers: was it really necessary to make all the assassins literate?
"Little Pearl, since we're planning to train a strong army for fun, we can't end up like the other units in Dayan."
At least ideologically, they must know that joining the army is not just about getting food.
They should at least know who they are and where they come from.
Even if you end up on the battlefield in the future, you must be clear about why you are fighting and for whom you are fighting!
Even if death is inevitable in the future, it will not be a death of ignorance.
This is the original intention of ideological education.
Wei Shouyi and Huo Ying were taken aback. They realized that the Junior Tutor's ideological education of the common soldiers had this deeper meaning!
"Dayan should have more generous and tragic heroes, rather than ignorant and foolish people or those who are prudent, self-protective, and sentimental."
Master, even if you educate these people, they will never become an army like the Great Xia.
Serving the country and its people with unwavering loyalty and strict discipline, never taking a single needle or thread from the common people—do you think that's possible?
Wei Shouyi thought to himself, strict discipline should be achievable, but not taking a single needle or thread from the people? That was really too difficult.
After conquering a city, plundering the people became an almost tacit rule, the only difference being the amount, which depended on the leader of the army.
As for serving the country and its people? Who joins the army without just wanting a paycheck and a salary?
"It's really difficult for them to do that, which is why I'm reluctant to have much contact with them."
However, none of this affects my original intention to cultivate both physical and mental well-being while simultaneously toughening up my body.
Perhaps some people, after becoming literate, will have a stronger sense of shame and a higher moral standard, and then their education will not have been in vain.
[Master, when it comes to extensive reading, who can match the officials of the court? And when it comes to propriety, righteousness, integrity, and the willingness to go to any lengths, who can compare to them?]
The system's words caused everyone behind her to blush crimson.
Wei Shouyi, who was still explaining the uses of the various barracks, unconsciously lowered his voice.
He was just a roughneck who was somewhat literate, but his achievements today were not only due to his father's hard work, but also to his own hard work and struggle.
He felt that what the Divine Artifact Master said made perfect sense!
As for Yu Boming and Caibing, upon hearing their fathers being scolded, they consciously and quietly distanced themselves from the crowd. Today, they dared to watch their own fathers make a fool of themselves.
His biological fathers can't do anything about his sister/Grand Tutor, but they can definitely make them a laughing stock tomorrow!
"That's different. These people have read too many books and lost their conscience."
Besides, when I suggested that my second brother and the others teach the soldiers to read and write, I was also adhering to the principle of voluntariness.
I don't require everyone to go, but my five thousand people must all be able to recognize the most basic characters. If one year isn't enough, then two years will do.
"At the crossroads, we need neither useless people nor illiterate people!"
The moonlight silently weeps. What can I do? The system tasks are too tricky. For the sake of points, I have no choice but to do them!
"System, can't we define illiteracy ourselves?"
[Host, in your opinion, to what extent should a 10,000-strong army be considered cultured and intellectually conscious?]
"Just...basic reading and writing should be enough, right?" Yue Fuguang answered hesitantly, equating being able to read and write with being cultured; she was forced into it.
Even if her army grows larger and she selects the best to form a single force, it will still be difficult to achieve the goal of having a highly educated and cultured individual without lowering the standards.
System: Host, you're taking advantage of my lack of education again!
When everyone heard Yue Fuguang mention Sancha, and thought about setting off next month, they couldn't help but feel a stirring in their hearts.
Wei Shouyi couldn't help but change the subject, saying, "By the way, Young Master, there are only a few days left before we select people to be stationed at Sancha."
Do you have selection criteria?
Wei Yan, Huo Sui, and the others, who were originally lagging behind, quietly moved to the front a little more, their ears perked up.
After thinking for a moment, Yue Fuguang said, "In all assessments, including ideological education assessments, those who rank in the top seven thousand will be selected by me, and then I will choose five thousand from those seven thousand."
【Master, I...I...Little Bead can tell the difference between loyalty and treachery at a glance. No matter how outstanding someone is, we cannot keep someone who is not loyal to you!】
"Okay, whatever you say!"
"Young Master, do you think we can go?" It was the youngest member, Lin Huaijing, who spoke up.
Wei Yan and the others stared in astonishment at this usually most honest boy, who only ever got to drink soup when eating meat. They never expected him to be so bold today.
Good lad, even a mouse dares to ask a question before his older brothers. I really underestimated him!
Seeing the moonlight shimmering in his eyes, Lin Huaijing immediately introduced himself, "Lin Huaijing greets the Junior Tutor."
His eyes were filled with stars as he looked at Yue Fuguang. Yue Fuguang understood part of the meaning: Mu Qiang!
Lin Congxue glanced admiringly at his youngest son again and said, "Young Master, this is my good-for-nothing youngest son."
I'm so sorry to have made you laugh!
Lin Huaijing?
The panel in front of Moonlight showed a favorability rating of 78 and his life story...
"Whether it's food or entertainment, Sanchadi is nowhere near as good as the capital. Besides you, there probably aren't many people there."
"The environment is harsh, the climate is severe, Lin Huaijing, are you sure you want to go?"
Lin Huaijing's gaze was firm. "Young Master, Huaijing wants to go! I'm not afraid of hardship!"
Fifteen is a rebellious age, but this kid is talented. Since he's offered himself up, there's no reason not to take him.
Then she smiled gently and said, "It's not certain whether others can go, but if you really want to go, there's no problem."
Then he said to Bo Ming, "Second brother, you should take care of him more often."
Having Yu Boming take him along more often is a way of bringing him into their inner circle.
