The military examination will be held, and the literary examination will mainly be the meaning of Confucius and Mencius, which is to let future generals know whether the war is good or not, but the main position must be correct.

The art of war seems very important, but this thing is not among the achievements, because the examiners have little understanding of the art of war. They prefer to use the art of war such as Sun Tzu's Art of War as a political means rather than on the battlefield. Who asked the candidates to take the military exam were the Privy Council and the Ministry of War. There was no general in both yamen.

Another main examination department, the Department of the Palace Front, still has no sense of existence.

The rule that no matter how powerful the general is, he can only be a deputy general has been deeply rooted in the Song Dynasty.

The only few generals who broke the rules had a bad ending.

For example: Di Qing.

The officials who came to inspect the Privy Council would not sign high-ranking officials like the Privy Council, but were small officials of relatively low rank. However, because they came from a powerful yamen, they were used to being in the external temper and didn't care what Li Yun said: He played mahjong with the emperor.

Li Yun said this, could he still bring the emperor to be a witness?

This made the Jie brothers very nervous. They secretly pulled Li Yun behind them and whispered: "Li Yun, we are here to participate in the martial arts, not to cause trouble."

The officials of the Ministry of War next to him had no intention of speaking. In the Song Dynasty, the presence of the Ministry of War may be the lowest among the Six Caos. The Ministry of Rites can also preside over the provincial examination and also prepare for sacrifices, which is very important. I won’t talk about the Ministry of Personnel. The Ministry of Personnel will have to flatter the officials and officials who leave Beijing. Since the Ministry of Revenue took away most of the powers of the Three Divisions, it has become the leader of the Six Divisions and has the capital to compete with the Ministry of Personnel. The Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Works are at least in charge of a large number of affairs, but the Ministry of War.

The training army was controlled by the front brigade commander and the cavalry commander, and the main general was dispatched, and the deputy general was in charge of the Privy Council. Even if they launched a war and designated strategic plans, they were not qualified.

Even the production of military ordnance was divided by the Ministry of Works and the Salt and Iron Department.

Officials of the Ministry of War completely regard themselves as a burden to accompany the prince to study. The benefits are not up to date, so don’t be hit by the blame.

Seeing that the other party was not in trouble, Li Yun said angrily: "Believe it or not, I will turn around and go to the Imperial Academy and be a classmate with your little yamen?"

Being classmates is fake, but it is definitely a disaster for people.

The other party was stunned. You are a Sumen family. Can you be more handsome?

The other party would not doubt Li Yun's motive. Looking at his clan brother Li Kui, you will know who the old Li family is.

Instead, he firmly believed that Li Yun would definitely bully his baby son in the Imperial Academy.

As for whether Li Yun can go to the Imperial Academy, it is so good. With Li Kui's personality, he is not worth 4 or 6. Is it difficult to send his clan brother to the Imperial Academy as one of the benefits of civil servants?

It's really not difficult.

As for wasting a place, Li Kui’s son is still missing, can he care?

The conspiracy officer of the Privy Council, well, this official is really not a big one. If Li Kui was present, he would not dare to say anything. As for why he made things difficult for Li Yun, it was mainly because the boss, Privy Councilor Li Qingchen, disliked Su Jun very much. If bullying Li Yun can make a sense of existence in front of the boss, why not do it?

But at this time, the other party also understood that the character of Li's bachelor is really not something that can be bullied casually.

The other party will also fight back and even hit his pain.

He now hopes that Li Yun can even win the title of top martial arts through the martial arts competition. What is the reason? It’s very simple. As long as Li Yun becomes a military officer, wouldn’t he be rubbed by the Privy Council?

"Li Yun, I wish you a victory."

Seeing that the other party was smiling but not smiling, with a sense of indifference in enthusiasm, and even threatening, Li Yun snorted coldly: "Let's see!"

He didn't care about offending a small official in the Privy Council. Who would offend him be worse and more desperate than offending Li Kui? He had even offended Li Kui. With this bowl of wine at the bottom, he was not afraid of these small actions in the officialdom at all.

Instead, the Jie brothers followed Li Yun nervously and entered the examination room.

There was no rigorous search, and even the exam was in an open yard. It was not like the provincial exam. Each person had an examination room, and was afraid that someone would cheat.

"The Analects of Confucius" and "Mencius", these two books are the foundations of scholars, especially the martial arts exams are simple and the results are not recorded. Li Yun and others transform into talents one by one, and write like talented men with a god.

The same goes for military tactics afterwards.

On the first day, the highlight of the written test content is still a strategy: What should I do if I am trapped by the border troubles?

Writing casually is an extremely important policy for the provincial examination palace examination, but it is still not included in the achievements in the martial arts.

Li Yun didn't even write the draft and just talked nonsense on the test paper. This kind of article will not be read unless it is the top scorer, the examiner, or the emperor who finally named the top scorer. Even if it is the top scorer, as long as the position is correct, there will be no major problems.

The martial arts exam gave Li Yun a magical feeling.

If I had known that I was so comfortable, why would I have to follow that guy Li Kui to take the provincial exam?

It was not until now that Li Yun felt like a famous disciple. He could not help but feel a sense of elation when he wrote a thousand miles away.

The first day, the exam was successfully completed.

The second day of the examination room was moved to the North School Field, which was also the training ground for the four imperial guards who guarded the capital of the Song Dynasty. The martial arts field was a military formation that could accommodate tens of thousands of people. The school field was large in size, and there were also barracks, granaries, and warehouses, all available. On the general's stage, Han Deqin appeared in front of the students and said aloud: "Today's assessment, weapons, riding and shooting."

"Each candidate can choose by himself. The examiner enters the exam. There is no error in the entry, and the assessment will be conducted!"

"The golden sword with iron cuts."

"You guys, Park Dao is just Park Dao. Why are you talking about a golden knife with iron slashing? The standard Park Dao is weighing 15 kilograms and your own weapons cannot be used. Next."

"The silver spear is bright."

"One iron spear is used, go and get it. There are two types of test-based exercises. There are gun tips for those who perform martial arts, and there are no gun tips for those who use trials. Don't choose the wrong ones."

"Purple gold eight-sided hammer."

"A pair of hammers, choose the one you like, don't choose the big one. Although the big hammer is very powerful, it may not be suitable for you. Next."

...

Most candidates who can participate in the martial arts exam are not short of money. Many of them have a weapon that makes them very proud after the generals. They lose the weapon they use well and feel that their strength is immediately reduced by half. Such a pickup is quite good, but more are pickups with armor, war horses, and bows and arrows. When they hear this bad news, the arrogance on their faces suddenly collapsed.

Fortunately, riding without the cooperation of a horse is really desperate.

The only thing you can use your own weapon is the bow.

But it must be more than the pulling force of the standard half-stone bow, and there is no other requirement.

In fact, bows and arrows were almost ruined by the Song people, and the court intended to promote bows and arrows as national training. Even scholars and scholars needed to practice bows and arrows, and there were courses to learn in the academies. Bow clubs in various places were almost all over the county-level administrative districts of the Song Dynasty. The number of private bows was very large.

Only crossbows are prohibited weapons by the people and cannot flow into the people.

The students present were filled with grief, but Han Deqin, the chief examiner of the martial arts, didn't care about the reactions of these students at all. Is the Song Dynasty short of generals?

No shortage.

Since there is no shortage, there is not much more, and there is no shortage.

The martial arts practice had no meaning to the Song Dynasty at all. It was just a symbolic meaning, giving ordinary warriors with opportunities for promotion, that's all.

The first bow and arrow competition was carried out.

This is also in the order of previous years.

"Ten arrows hit the target and pass the level."

"Nine arrows are on the target, to be determined."

"Eight arrows are on the target and eliminate them."

"Sir, give students a chance, give students a chance!"

"Pull it out!"

...

The thirty-meter target is very simple for Li Yun, and it is also a fixed target, not even a mobile target. After shooting half a pot of arrows, he was promoted. The same is true for Jie Qianjie Wan.

It's just that when it comes to riding, it's a little troublesome.

The horse Li Yun chose was very restless, but fortunately he took out a tender radish from his arms. The greedy war horse stared at his cute eyes, as if he was about to laugh out loud. The horses then got on and ran wildly, and it was very smooth. Some of the judges regretted seeing that Li Yun had such a small move. If they had known, they would have prepared some food to bribe the war horse.

After two rounds, the last round of the next day is a move.

Li Yun chose Park Knife, Jie Qian was an iron spear, Jie Qian was a pair of hammers.

At this time, there were already eliminating candidates in the examination room, leaving the examination room dejectedly. The final part of the competition was usually more than 100 candidates.

Although the martial arts examination is not a good way out, it is compared to the provincial examination hall examination. Anyone who wants to win a literary and Jinshi naturally looks down on the martial arts examination. But the problem is, if he can take the Chinese Jinshi, who will come to the martial arts examination room? Even the martial arts examination was cruelly eliminated, so there would be few choices for them.

Either be a country landlord or a businessman.

Li Yun weighed the iron-wood knife in his hand, and the weight was about half lighter than the Park knife he used well. But for him, it had light tricks and a strong and powerful aura.

"Li Yun, a son of Yishui County, Yizhou, Jingdong East Road, appeared."

Li Yun clasped his fists and pointed at Han Deqin on the stage, saying, "Sir."

Han Deqin nodded, saying hello: "Start."

The moment the sword was in his hand, Li Yun seemed to have his whole aura restrained, as if a stone sculpture had solidified around him. The starting move was very slow, so slow that he seemed like a beginner.

Extremely serious in every detail.

hey-hey--

Someone laughed and thought that Li Yun could get through this level, so he should go home.

But Han Deqin didn't think so. He frowned slightly, feeling that the breath around Li Yun had a stagnant feeling. This thought made him think of a warrior's realm and artistic conception. Han Deqin was also frightened by his ridiculous thoughts, and then felt that it was impossible, so he shook his head secretly.

But then, Li Yun's movements became faster and faster, sweeping like a storm. For a moment, it was like even among thousands of troops, gradually calmed down.

Han Deqin was really scared. How old is this guy Li Yun, who has already reached this threshold?

Li Yun is so strong, so what level of master should Li Kui be? When Han Deqin first met Li Kui, he told the emperor that he should be the number of five or five when he fought with Li Kui. Now what makes him scared is that he is also the number of five or five when he fights with Li Yun. But Li Yun has been bullied by Li Kui and has no intention of resisting.

Li Yun's realm seems to be comparable to him. But the problem is that he only reached this threshold in his thirties, and how old is Li Yun? Wouldn't it mean that Li Yun will be a powerful general on the battlefield in the future?

This made him feel restless. Han Deqin was not a general who was entrusted by the emperor with important responsibilities because he was tall and heroic. He was also a general with real skills. Of course, he also had high scores in his appearance. Just like Wang Shi, the former general of the Left Guard, who was beautiful and was given the marriage to the eldest princess by Emperor Shenzong.
