Ni Liangxu and Liu Cheng did not dare to call Zhang Gongyan at the party, but even if he called, he probably wouldn't be there.

As a latecomer, Zhang Gongyan never regarded his hometown as different from most officers in the Ming army in Zhejiang. Although the Ming army in Zhejiang was an anti-Qing group with Zhejiang people as the main body, it was not purely composed of Zhejiang people from the beginning. Chen Wen did not mention it, now he is the general officer of Quzhou Town. Li Ruixin, recognized as the first cavalry general in Zhejiang Ming army, is a Liaodong person. After many years of rebellion, he joined officers from other provinces such as Yu Shizhong, and these officers were able to fulfill their duties in their respective positions. In addition, the continuous strengthening of internal powers and classes of the army, the localist color of this Ming army in Zhejiang is far lower than that of other Ming army or Qing army.

Zhang Gongyan has been joining the Ming Army in Zhejiang for half a year. His study at the Zhejiang Martial Arts School in the past six months has broadened his horizons in military affairs. The guard of Jinhua not long ago has added a lot of courage, making this Yunnan scholar who bluntly said in front of Chen Wen that "I would rather be a centurion than a scholar" has long been different from the past.

No matter how Chen Wen has not thought about how to resettle Ni Liangxu, Zhang Gongyan studied the Staff Department, and his main job is to draw maps, make sand tables, analyze data and intelligence and provide reference opinions based on experience and data measured based on current scientific and technological level, and do not have the right to directly command the army. Of course, those who have just studied military affairs for a short time and have not been in the army are mainly engaged in the most basic work.

A few days ago, the martial arts school issued an order informing him to go to the newly built staff team in Nantangying a month later to report that it would be his first position as an intern staff officer. However, before that, he had already received the guarantee of a classmate to join the China Revival Association, and today is the day when he participated in the first internal gathering as a preparatory member.

"Everyone stood up and saluted to the statue of Emperor Huangdi and the flag of the meeting!"

When I first attended such a gathering, I first saluteed the statue of Emperor Huangdi and the flag of Xuanyuan. Almost every move has certain rules. It is said that the Chinese Revival Association still solicited songs internally, but these religious rituals did not only fail to make Zhang Gongyan, a serious Confucian scholar, have a similar disgust to the incense smelling and the White Lotus Sect, but instead have a spiritual sustenance.

As for the reason, it was probably because they worshiped, and they did not worship idols like Wusheng Lao Mother and Maitreya Buddha. They did not do foolish things that could be invulnerable to swords and guns by drinking talismans. Instead, they used long spears, white blades, bows, guns, and cannons to fight with the Tartars under the protection of Emperor Xuanyuan, so as to avoid the tragedy of China falling into the Tartars like the Yuan Dynasty destroyed the Song Dynasty.

"... Therefore, the Master said: If a barbarian has a king, it is better to the fall of Xia. How can the righteousness of the king and the minister be more than that of the Chinese and the barbarians?"

It has been a year since the establishment of the association. With the rapid expansion of the China Revival Association, the military or government can establish a group if it reaches a certain scale. On days without a gathering, it will be possible to study the constitution and purpose by yourself. The initial explanation at the meeting is no longer conducted, and it will convey some spirit more.

For example, Zhang Gongyan can now participate in group gatherings in the martial arts lecture school as a preparatory member. After he goes to Nantang Camp for internship, he will transfer the relationship between the group and learn the charter, purpose and spirit.

"... The barbarian court used the imperial examination as a means to use the power of the monarch and ministers to suppress the great defense of China and the barbarians..."

Standing in front of me, reciting these was a young man dressed as a Confucian scholar. When Zhang Gongyan heard the man introduce himself, he claimed to be a person from Yanzhou Prefecture, named Lu Liuliang, a student who was like a civil servant, but he was already a formal member. What he was reading at this moment was Chen Wenrang's comments based on the answer sheet of the Qing Dynasty imperial examination during the Shunzhi period, and this comment was a comment on the answer sheet of the first examination in the Qing Dynasty in the third year of Shunzhi period.

"... The captive court tried to destroy the great defense of China and the barbarians with the righteousness of the monarch and ministers. Although the system was the same as the imperial examinations of the imperial examinations, it was actually a deception of the world and stealing reputation."

Zhang Gongyan had not taken the imperial examination. Although he was still far away from the imperial examination, he had never eaten pork and had seen pigs leave. Lu Liuliang dug out the hidden things in the imperial examination questions and answers, and immediately reminded Zhang Gongyan of an example he had seen in the book.

During the reform of Wang Anshi, Ye Zuqia, who was in the third year of Xining, was able to cater to the new law and gain the title of top scholar, which was enough to glorify his ancestors. The Jinshi he took during that period were basically supporters of the new law, at least not opponents. Such things were actually not uncommon in all dynasties. After all, whether the test questions and answers were correct depends on the examiner's preferences, as well as the purpose of the rule of the emperor or the powerful minister.

The Qing Dynasty used the imperial examination to do this principle. It was not as strong as the people of the fourth class to be regarded as the people of the People of the Qing Dynasty. Instead, it used respect for Confucius and imperial examinations to put on the cloak of an orthodox dynasty, which really made Zhang Gongyan shudder.

"However, the governor's right to advocate the righteousness of the monarch and ministers undoubtedly encouraged the arrogance of those saints' scum, and used high officials and generous salaries to lure many Confucian scholars who were not clear about the teachings of saints to make friends with tigers, and be vigilant."

It is indeed necessary to be vigilant and nodded heavily. Zhang Gongyan continued to listen with great interest, but this uncivilized statement still made him feel a little awkward. But he didn't know that Lu Liuliang's original text was not like this. It was forced by Chen Wen to change it to this, in order to make the members who are the vast majority of the officers in the Chinese Revival Association, and who can barely read some words. As for the copying, it is completely another version.

Until I finished listening, I explained some of the difficulties in understanding reflected by the groups in each meeting, as well as the meeting sessions for commendation and new members. It lasted until noon, when members and preparatory members went back to have dinner, and then discussed on their own in groups.

"Marty, do you want to post this comment to the occupied area of ​​the Tartars?"

Although they have been together for a long time, Chen Wen also said that they can call each other by using the word "Preface", but Zhou Jingting always used the title of official title. Even in his words, although the righteousness of the monarch and ministers is not as good as that of the great defense of China and the barbarians, it is also extremely important and must not mess up the upper and lower levels.

"No, if you modify it again, I will only post it in the prefectures and counties controlled by our army for the time being."

Chen Wen was really excited about this proposal. The Qing Dynasty used the imperial examinations to be better than other barbarians, but it was far from being able to paint words such as the prosperity of Greater East Asia on the wall. Posting big-character posters in the occupied areas of the Qing Dynasty and sending leaflets to local scholars. These methods were indeed enough for the Qing Dynasty to drink a pot of it. However, considering that the Ming army in Zhejiang was able to establish a weak intelligence network that was easy to establish in several nearby prefectures and important cities like Nanjing, it would be a bit unworthy to do this in this era when there were illiterate and literacy rates of less than 10%. At least for the time being, they could only try to spread the scholars themselves.

After offering his plan, Zhou Jingting was not discouraged and continued to talk to Chen Wen about other things. Over the past period of time, many of the work of the China Revival Association was assisted by Zhou Jingting, the "office director", assisted him, especially those copywriting work, which really made Chen Wen much easier.

In short, Zhou Jingting has been under Chen Wen's command for a year and a half. Although he is not very capable, he is still hardworking but hard work is still not enough to describe it. It can even be said that among the top leaders of the entire Ming army in Zhejiang, except for Chen Wen and Sun Yu, Zhou Jingting has always been the busiest existence.

However, for such a long time, except for the relationship between the boss and the staff, the two have not made much progress in their personal relationship, especially after the Cao Conglong Rebellion, there is always a layer between them. Chen Wen is very clear about what is between them. Fortunately, the Zhejiang Ming Army has refined the system and he does not need to be responsible for many military affairs. He has just had time to solve other things-not just because of Zhou Jingting, but it can even be said that Zhou Jingting accounts for a very small proportion of them, but more from Chen Wen's heart.
