Chapter 79 79 Frontline News
Back at Bengshan Castle, although Wei Guangde was already a child, Wei Guangde's life had not changed much.
Because he was not yet a student, he naturally could not enter the county school. He still studied in Master Sun's private school.
But at this time, Wei Guangde was considered a man of the hour in the private school.
Without him, the three senior brothers who participated in the government examination together all failed. However, as the youngest candidate to participate in this government examination, he was lucky enough to pass the government examination.
In fact, not only his classmates who have been with him for many years think so, but Wei Guangde himself also views the test results this way.
Fortunately, Wei Guangde still felt that this was not just due to good luck, but maybe everything was already destined.
Yes, after Jiujiang Mansion knew that he had passed the government examination, Wei Guangde tossed and turned for many nights, unable to sleep peacefully.
Can't sleep, can't sleep at all.
I have the halo of the protagonist and am the chosen one. This is the result of thinking about it for so many nights.
He knew very well that his arrival was destined to be extremely smooth.
Ever since he thought about this level, Wei Guangde didn't want to work hard anymore.
He believes that he will have smooth sailing in the next college and rural examinations, and even the general examination and the palace examination. Otherwise, he will not be able to reflect the halo of the protagonist, but also have an intellectual influence on the people around him.
But just because he thinks so, it doesn't mean that Master Sun thinks so too.
"Guangde, you are able to get to this point not only because of your own talent, but also because of your hard work.
You are only one step away from fame, so you should work hard and strive to take a further step in the college examination. "
In the few days after Wei Guangde returned, Master Sun keenly discovered that Wei Guangde did not seem to settle down to study these days, which was unfortunate.
The two students I was optimistic about in the past two years have both passed the college examination and become scholars. One is currently studying at a government school and the other is studying at a county school. They are both preparing to take the provincial examination next year.
Among the students in the private school now, only Wei Guangde has the opportunity to go further. Master Sun will naturally not relax his management of him. There is only one step left. This year, another student can pass the scholar examination, which will naturally be of great significance to his private school. Impact.
He taught two talented students in the first two years, which directly added a large number of students to his private school that year.
Don’t think that in ancient times, teachers chose students. In fact, students also chose teachers.
Excellent private school teachers are models that are admired by all parties.
Although Master Sun will not move away from Madang Town to the county or capital because of this, he still hopes that he can recruit students from further afield who come here to study.
Think about the famous academies in Jiangxi, which not only attract outstanding students from all over the province, but also students from other provinces who come here to communicate.
Well, he runs a private school, not an academy, but Master Sun also has ideals.
Wei Guangde had just been relaxing for two days when he was caught by Master Sun.
In this era, no future student dares to challenge the teacher. The moral problem is very serious.
After accepting Master Sun's teachings with a low eyebrow, Wei Guangde wandered out of the private school and went home.
Yes, he was left to be educated alone by his master.
Time passed by for more than half a month, and the news from my father finally came back. The Jiujiang Guard team successfully landed in Shaoxing Prefecture with the army. When they landed, they were discovered by the Shaoxing Prefecture Guard soldiers and contacted them.
After learning that many coastal counties in Ningbo Prefecture had been attacked by Japanese pirates, resulting in a large number of population and property losses, the army did not proceed as originally planned in secret, but directly sent troops into Ningbo Prefecture to suppress the Japanese pirates.
The landing was already a violation of military orders. There happened to be Japanese pirates in Ningbo, so they immediately set off to destroy them. At least they could use the Japanese suppression as an excuse for not following the order and going directly to Taizhou for rescue.
When the reinforcements approached Dingyuan County, the raging Japanese pirates decisively ran away. The troops of Wu Zhankui and Wei Lao were the first to pursue the Japanese pirates to the seaside, and even watched the Japanese pirates boarding ships and escaping.
Although the results were mediocre, the seizures were indeed rich. I am afraid this was the main reason why they were willing to pursue the Japanese pirates.
The news and letters were brought back by Wu Zhankui's personal servant, so the credibility is naturally very high, because he was with Wu Zhankui at the time.
After Wu Dong received the news, he immediately sent people to Bengshan Fort, so Wei Wencai and Wei Guangde drove their mother overnight to Pengze County to learn about the situation.
"What do you think of what the letter says?"
Wu Dong said to the two brothers Wei Wencai and Wei Guangde that they had read the secret letter just now and knew the cause and effect.
"What else can I do? Just do as the letter says.
I will go back to Bengshan Fort tomorrow and pick out the remaining 20 soldiers. Cousin, you will also pick up the manpower here. When the people from Jiujiang Mansion arrive, we will set off immediately.
My uncle and the others are right. Only by transporting things back can we feel at ease. If we stay in the camp, there will always be hidden dangers. "
"That's fine, you have to worry more this time. My second uncle is good at talking about business, but he is really not good at marching and fighting."
Wu Dong nodded and said to Wei Guangde: "Guangde, how are you preparing for the July college exam?"
Regarding this question, Wei Guangde naturally would not say that he has been a little lazy recently, but smiled and said: "The lights are on at three o'clock and the chicken is on at five o'clock, which is when men are studying."
Well, he bragged.
However, at this time, Wei Wencai would naturally not expose his brother's lies. In Wei Wencai's opinion, Wei Guangde was still very diligent in reading and studying.
"That's good. If the news that you passed the government examination spreads to the front, my father and uncle will definitely be very happy."
Wu Dong naturally had no doubts about him. Just kidding, Wei Guangde was already a child.
He has experienced how difficult it is to take the Tongsheng test. He knows very well that it is impossible to pass the test so smoothly by cheating and cheating.
"Can we get a boat over there?"
What Wei Wencai was thinking about was what the letter said, asking them to bring at least twelve ships to transport supplies.
There are only about twenty boats on the Jiujiang Guard pier at the moment. If so many are taken away at once, nothing will be leaked.
"Uncle will find a way."
Wu Dong also answered seriously.
To be honest, he wasn't sure he could get the boat.
"If they don't get enough, I think they will rent merchant ships. There is no shortage of merchant ships in Jiujiang Prefecture."
Wei Guangde didn't care at all that his father and the others had obtained a lot of trophies in Ningbo this time and needed them to transfer ships to transport them.
Uncle and the others were able to steal goods from the Japanese pirates, and the other guard posts should also have gained more or less.
Now the ships that Jiujiang Guard sent there were all on the dock there and did not dare to move. They were already being watched by the people from the Ministry of War. It would be a long way to go by land, so they could only take the risk of transporting them back by water.
"The Ningbo Prefecture is really fat. No wonder the Japanese pirates gathered so many people to go ashore and plunder. They haven't finished moving it after so many days."
Wu Dong couldn't help but sigh when he thought of the wealth mentioned in the letter.
