Lu Zhi's words made Yang Fan very moved, and he said, "Then I will move south to control the entire Bingzhou."

Lu Zhi shook his head and said, "Bingzhou has special geographical conditions, with plains, mountains and valleys. With your current military strength, it is already the limit to taking three counties. You cannot be too hasty."

Yang Fan asked in confusion: "Why? I have dozens of generals, several advisers, and more than 100,000 elite soldiers. I dare to ask who can stop me in Bingzhou and who dares to stop me?"

Lu Zhi shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Bowen, if you don't have those new policies, the Bingzhou prefectures and counties will all surrender automatically. Do you know how many people's interests have touched? Do you know that the military academies and academies you founded are full of poor families and ordinary people; do you know that your civil service system is not sound, and after all, there is no one."

Lu Zhi had three consecutive "do you know" that really stumped Yang Fan. Someone had to manage the territory. The one he lacked the most was such grassroots officials. When he thought of this, Yang Fan's passionate heart cooled down.

Seeing Yang Fan's expression of loss, Lu Zhi immediately comforted him: "Bowen, don't be discouraged. You have done a good job. As long as you persist, the people in the world will stand on your side. With the people supporting you, what are you afraid of?"

Yang Fan nodded and chuckled, "Teacher, you don't have to worry. I have strong ability to resist strikes, and this little setback is nothing."

If there were thousands or even tens of thousands of people in his previous life, he might have fought for a position. He had experienced it in that era. The problem he faced now was nothing more than a lack of talents. He firmly believed that as long as the college was founded, there would be more and more talents under his command. If one college was not enough, he would have founded two or three.

Lu Zhi just likes Yang Fan's tenacious and unyielding character. He smiled and said, "After a year, the first batch of students from the Military Academy will graduate. Would you, the honorary dean, say a few words?"

Yang Fan said in surprise: "Isn't the semester of the Military Academy three years?"

Lu Zhi shook his head and said, "The semester was originally three years, but isn't it going to fight? Where can I learn classes quickly on the battlefield?"

Yang Fan nodded and agreed: "I can trust the people brought by the teacher."

"Let's go and see your first batch of student soldiers," Lu Zhi stood up, then thought of something, and asked, "Hey, what position do you plan to start with? Do you still have to be a general?"

"What?" Yang Fan was stunned, then shook his head and smiled: "Although they went to the Military Academy and learned some ways to arrange troops, after all, I was just starting out, so I dare not hand over the lives of soldiers to their hands. Let's start with what I have to do!"

Speaking of this, we will talk about the military system of the Yang family army. This is the military system that Yang Fan and his generals discussed for a long time before finally decree. The most basic military position of the Yang family army is the chief, ten people are one, one leader; a hundred people are one team, one Du Bo; a thousand people are one department, one partial general, two Du Bo assistants (as deputy positions); two thousand people are one school, one Sima, two partial generals are assisted (as deputy positions); ten schools are one battalion, one school captain, one or two military Sima assisted (as deputy positions).

In general, the military system of the Yang family army is roughly the same as that of the Han Dynasty, and the Yang family army has quite strict regulations on promotion, pension, learning, etc. For example, if an ordinary soldier wants to be a leader, he must serve in the army for one year and kill more than ten enemies to be qualified; Du Bo must serve in the army for two years, participate in more than two battles and kill more than one hundred enemies to be qualified; while the positions of general, army Sima, school lieutenant, etc. must serve in the army for more than three years, and have certain strategies and contributions to the Yang family army are selected from the superiors.

To put it bluntly, if you only act as a big soldier, Du Bo has already been topped off. If you still want to continue to be promoted, you can only learn one way. Yang Fan's iron law tells the soldiers under his command a truth, that is, if you want to become a superior person, you can only master knowledge. People without knowledge will not be reused. After the regulations were issued, a learning storm broke out in the Yang family army. Yang Fan was obviously happy to see such a situation.

Yang Fan's power and army are better, and have a relatively complete system, but in terms of civil servants, Yang Fan really caught things blindly. First, most of the people who master knowledge in this era are aristocratic families, and among ordinary people, those who can write their own names are considered relatively high-level talents; second, Yang Fan's series of measures completely touched the nerves of the aristocratic families, resulting in the few people from Yang Fan's family being pitiful and almost negligible; third, although Yang Fan was willing to reform, under the influence of this era environment, he could only do it step by step, which made him difficult to accumulate government talents and could only cultivate himself. Fortunately, with the strong support of Lu Zhi and his family's books, Yang Fan spent more than a year to gain more than a hundred talents who could barely be a minor official.

If it weren't for Lu Zhi's support, Yang Fan would have considered bowing to the aristocratic family for the time being and cultivated by himself after he had a certain foundation in the future. This dilemma made Yang Fan deeply realize that talents are the perfection of this era, and the driving force for progress, and an indispensable and important treasure.

Regarding Yang Fan's consideration, Lu Zhi nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, Bowen, you are really an experienced master. Sometimes, if your teacher wants to wonder if there is another mature soul in your young body? You are only over 20 years old, and you are not as good as you in your work."

After hearing this, Yang Fan's face suddenly froze and muttered in his heart, "You have always told me rightly. My two lives are older than you!" After thinking about it, Yang Fan didn't dare to say it out loud. He said immediately: "No, it's not that the teacher teaches well! Haha!"

Lu Zhi didn't take Yang Fan's subtle expression to heart, but he urged him: "Let's go, let's go, go to the military academy with your troops, and see if you are satisfied with those young men!"

Then Yang Fan followed Lu Zhi to a courtyard. The courtyard covers a very wide area. I saw a couplet on the gate. On the left is "Don't enter this gate if you are greedy for life and fear death." On the right is "Please go to another road for promotion and wealth". The plaque on the top is "Bingzhou Military Academy". This couplet is a famous saying of a military academy in a certain era in Yang Fan's previous life. Yang Fan also deeply agrees with the meaning contained in these two sentences. Soldiers should move forward bravely and not be afraid of life and death. Any profound strategy and tactics require brave soldiers to implement. Therefore, Yang Fan spared no effort in the training and education of grassroots soldiers. In his opinion, every soldier is the cornerstone of an army. Only when the cornerstone is stable can the army not collapse.

Seeing Yang Fan standing in front of the door in a daze, Lu Zhi followed his gaze and saw him looking at the couplet, he praised: "Blog, your words are really spoken to the core. Every time I see them, I will sigh. It's not a pity that I am a famous general of the Han Dynasty. Even if Yuan Shao or Cao Cao cannot compare with you!"

Yang Fan shook his head and smiled, "Teacher, don't praise me, I just simply think that this is what it should be for the army."

Lu Zhi said with emotion: "Yes, how many generals in the court still don't know that soldiers are the foundation of an army!"

Yang Fan came here for this military academy for the second time. The first time was when the academy was built. At that time, the students had not been recruited. At this time, the old place was coming again, and it felt like time was passing by and there was a flash of time.

Looking at the students standing neatly in the field, wearing armor and holding sharp-sharp students, they were the first batch of students from this academy, with a total of 300 people. Some were drawn from various battle camps to study, some were peasant children who wanted to make a name for themselves, and some were poor and poor children.

Yang Fan stepped forward and whispered: "My name is Yang Fan!"

Yang Fan's self-introduction immediately attracted the surprise of the students below, but none of them whispered to each other. Judging from this performance alone, Yang Fan was very satisfied. I think Lu Zhi worked hard on them a lot.

"You have been studying in this academy for a year. Compared with the ordinary soldiers in our army, you have mastered more military knowledge and more military skills. Compared with them, you are better. You will be the cornerstone of the Yang family army. The Yang family army in the future will be honored to have you, and you will be proud to be a member of the Yang family army,"

Yang Fan's words made the young men a little excited. No soldier didn't like being praised by the general.

After seeing the students' expressions, Yang Fan suddenly changed his voice and said seriously: "But I have another word to advise you, that is, 'It is always shallow to know what you know, and you must practice it myself'. I don't want to 'Zhao Kuo who talks about war on paper', but to 'Bai Qi who has experienced many battles', so please remember this sentence."

Yang Fan's last words immediately made the students look awe-in, all looking at Yang Fan with admiration and admiration.
