Han Shizhong followed Wang Zhong into the military camp and arrived outside Commander Wang Xiao's tent. Looking at the open space in front, several instructors were training soldiers. The thirty students were serious and moved neatly, looking very impressive.

Sitting down in the pergola, Wang Zhong served tea.

Han Shizhong took a sip of tea and said: "There are many troops in Kaifeng, but none of them are as strict as yours."

Wang Zhongdao: "Control, the people in Xiaoshe are very strict, so everyone has to obey orders."

Han Shizhong couldn't help laughing after hearing this: "Being able to make your subordinates obey orders is beyond the reach of most people. How many leaders in Kaifeng City can restrain their subordinates? Soldiers are not allowed to go out here. Everything is in order, which is very rare.

"

Wang Zhong nodded in agreement. Wang Zhong didn't know whether Han Shizhong was right or not, but since he was an honored guest, it was always good to follow his advice.

After drinking tea for a while, I saw a large group of people, fifty or sixty in number, coming out of Wang Xiaolie's barracks. They all looked happy. Wang Zhong saw it and hurried forward to report. Wang Xiaolie heard this and hurried over.

.

When they arrived, Wang Xiao said to him, "I didn't know that the ruler was coming, so I missed you from afar! Please forgive me!"

Han Shizhong replied: "No need to be polite. I have free time today and will visit you in the army. I don't want to disturb your business."

Wang Xiaolie had visited Han Shizhong several times, but unfortunately, the two never met. Han Shizhong's visit today was a return visit to Wang Xiaolie. During the Battle of Luoyang, Han Shizhong and Ding Jin had a conflict, and they fought endlessly after returning to Kaifeng.

.I knew that Wang Xiaolie had also fallen out with Ding Jin, and Wang Xiaolie had won several battles, so I had a good impression of him.

After chatting for a while, Han Shizhong pointed to the people leaving and said, "Who are these people? The people of Xiaoshe value them so much?"

Wang Xiaolie said: "These are some unworthy literati in Kaifeng City. After the Jin army came, they had no chance to leave and lost their livelihood. Our army was short of men, so we recruited them to work in the army."

Han Shizhong shook his head after hearing this: "Xiao Sheren, when is this? What the army wants is a hero who can wield swords and guns. What's the use of recruiting a group of people with awls? It's a waste of food!"

Wang Xiaolie said: "You can't say that. There is no harm in being literate. There are many things to do."

Han Shizhong just shook his head, obviously not thinking so. Unlike Yue Fei, who was kind to literati, Han Shizhong did not treat literati very much, and there was a lack of them in the army. It was not until his later years, when he went to the military power, that he learned to recite poetry and became a

Another kind of person.

The army that Wang Xiaolie wants is a new type of army, which requires knowledge. Not knowing how to read is not enough. If you can't read a single Chinese character, you can't even understand the military proclamations, so you can only fight for the generals, and it's still an old-fashioned army.

Nowadays, there are many down-and-out literati in Kaifeng City, and many of them are hungry, so Wang Xiaolie recruits them into the army. Even if he can't do anything else, he can still teach the soldiers how to read.

Wang Xiaolie understands that these middle- and lower-class literati cannot place too high expectations. Just put them in the right position and do the right job. More cannot be expected. Fighting is a matter for soldiers. The so-called

Confucian generals must first be generals before they can discuss the issue of Confucianism and non-Confucianism.

The middle and lower class literati are very difficult to deal with. To use a term from later generations, many of them are small literati. Why are they called small literati? Because most of them have no feelings about their family and country, let alone the world in mind.

Many people just hope to find a job where they can eat, preferably a job where they can have leisure time and eat well. They are said to be literati because they can read, not because of their literati feelings.

Small literati, or small intellectuals, as well as small business owners, petty bourgeoisie, etc., are very difficult for the country to govern. They face the bottom directly and are familiar with all the dark sides of the world. Their lives are relatively superior and different from those of the bottom

.Above them, there is an entire state machine, and many levels can control them. In addition, they are literate and have a certain culture, and countless troubles arise.

In his previous life, Wang Xiaolie had a friend who was a middle school politics teacher. According to him, his teaching performance was unparalleled. He once asked Wang Xiaolie a question. We talk about building a harmonious society every day, and so on. But why in life?

, for example, he has good teaching results, but all advanced rewards and so on depend on the leader's face. Moreover, the leader does not look at your teaching performance, but looks at who gives him gifts, who treats him to dinner, and who has a relationship with the leader. It is related to the book

Speaking of which, it's completely different.

Wang Xiaolie's answer at that time was that he had not yet understood the reading. Thinking about it now, this answer should be appropriate. From middle school teachers, to officials at all levels, to national leaders, I don't know how many layers there are. From middle school teachers to

Perspectives, harmonious society and other major national policies are of course used for teaching. I understand it in my heart, but it cannot guide work and life. It is normal that what is learned in books is different from real life. But as you go up one level of bureaucracy,

Once you get to the top level of politics, it's completely different.

Objectively speaking, this is determined by their status in society. Of course there are people who transcend their status, but most of them are limited to this class. After the founding of New China, people went to the mountains and countryside, and accepted the re-employment of poor and lower-middle peasants.

Education is a naive method devised to target the characteristics of this class. Practice has proven that it is of no use.

Social status determines social consciousness. Although it may not be true for individuals, it will not differ too far for classes. A social class with such a status in society will inevitably give birth to such social consciousness, which is in line with materialism. It is believed that it can

Through going to the mountains and countryside, or other methods, or even through criticism and struggle, we can change, and we will not talk about materialism. What about existence?

During the period of New China, it was clear that the reality of social existence could not be changed, but it was obsessed with changing social consciousness, which resulted in countless incidents. Originally, according to its own ideology and materialistic attitude, there should be no consistent social consciousness.

idea.

It is inevitable that a society needs officials, capitalists, workers, farmers, small owners, petty bourgeoisie, and petty intellectuals. Since it is inevitable, we must recognize the social consciousness produced by these people.

, is also inevitable. Society is complex, and so is social consciousness.

In Wang Xiaolie's previous life, society was changing very fast, and this change in social consciousness can be clearly felt. For a period of time, everyone was very poor, and the popular social culture was to make money, and besides making money, it was drinking, sex, and wealth. As society developed, small

The culture of intellectuals and petty bourgeoisie began to become popular. First, there were all kinds of thick black studies, deconstructing history and reality, and then Chinese studies, antiques, foreign wine, clubs, memberships, etc. These popular cultures themselves illustrate the progress of society.

illustrates changes in social consciousness.

For a while, an article of this era was particularly popular, which was said to be "Ode to the Cold Cellar" written by Lu Mengzheng. It was even said to be the most wonderful article in history. In fact, as long as you read a few sentences, you will have a clear feeling that the Song Dynasty's

How could the number one scholar write such a thing? In fact, the "Ode to the Cold Cellar" written under the name of Lu Mengzheng was definitely not written by Lu Mengzheng, because what was written in it was about the impermanence of fate, with obvious imprints of lower-class intellectuals.

The popularity of this kind of article shows that the mainstream of social consciousness at that time accepted this idea.

Everything in New China changes too fast, and so does social consciousness. Many of Wang Xiaolie's ideas are actually based on the consciousness of his previous life, and he must pay attention to himself and remove those things that are obviously marked by the changes of the times.

That's how it is with these lower-level literati. Don't place too high expectations on them, just use them in the right position. The talents you need must be carefully cultivated by yourself, so that they can be truly used.

This month, Wang Xiaolie is not only getting familiar with the world, but also changing his own thoughts. Let his thoughts adapt to the world. Only in this way, only if he does it well, can he truly change the world.

Naturally, Han Shizhong couldn't understand Wang Xiaolie's thoughts. After saying a few words, he changed the subject.

Watching the sun rise, Wang Xiaoxian said: "Zongzong, I'm really careless in talking here, please ask the accountant to speak."

Han Shizhong said: "We are the ones leading the troops in the war, why should we care about false etiquette! The weather is hot, and it is just right to talk here."
