I will be the master of Xuande

Chapter 512 Recruiting Teachers
In the history of China, or in the history of the world, from the moment the human regime emerged, this kind of assassination, detective, espionage, and shady departments have always existed.

This department will exist until the demise of the human regime.

No matter which regime dominates the country, there must be such a department that does shady things.

After night comes dawn, and light and darkness have always existed side by side.

Liu Jian's power is getting stronger and stronger, and he also needs such a departmental organization.

Liu Jian is now in charge of not only the four prefectures in Hebei, but also the Han prefecture that has expanded to Liaodong, as well as the outskirts of Youzhou and Bing prefectures in Hebei, and the grassland areas that have expanded to the north. They are currently under their governance.

According to the geographical division of later generations, the north of the Yellow River, the coast of Shandong, including Shanxi and most of Inner Mongolia, including South Korea and North Korea, and parts of Liaoning are all under Liu Jian's control.

Moreover, judging from the overall situation of the separatist forces in the entire Han Dynasty, Liu Jian has the most aliens under his rule.

Compared with Yuan Shao who occupied Hebei in history, his power is more prosperous in terms of territory, talents, economy, resources, technology and potential.

However, the larger the territory and the more talents, it does not mean that this force will be absolutely safe and sound. On the contrary, the bigger the territory, the more things will happen.

He needs a secret affairs department dedicated to him, which specializes in dealing with some shady affairs.

For example, against Xianbei, Xun Yu felt that once someone with outstanding ability appeared in Xianbei, it would be extremely detrimental to the Han court.

But he has no good way to stop this matter.

In Liu Jian's view, this is not a problem.

Just a nomad.

As long as there are some slightly influential characters who are not easy to be controlled by him, it would be fine to kill them directly by assassination before they become big.

This is not difficult.

As long as there is an elite secret affairs department in hand, Liu Jian can guarantee that Xianbei will never have a peerless hero.

It's just that to set up such a department, you first need to invest money, a lot of money!
Then there are talents that need to be invested in training, special talents.

You must be cautious about the candidates hired by this department, but there is no shortage of people under Liu Jian's rule now. It is not a big deal to find some people who are loyal to him, only obey his orders, and at the same time are courageous and tenacious. Difficult.

But the key is to see who will train their abilities.

Investigative aspects, espionage aspects, knowledge and technology, including medical treatment and pharmacology... all must be mastered.

There is no shortage of Liu Jian who can teach these things.

But it is really not easy to find a teacher of assassination martial arts.

And this assassination martial skill is a rigid standard for the establishment of this department.

For fighters like Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, and Huang Zhong, their martial arts are naturally outstanding. In terms of horse fighting and foot fighting, they can be said to be invincible in the world.

However, what Liu Jian wants to train now is not the generals and soldiers who charge forward on the battlefield.

What he wants is a talent who can kill with one blow, and is good at hiding his whereabouts, so that he can put people to death quietly.

In this regard, Liu Jian felt that although generals like Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun were powerful, their skills were not suitable.

And Liu Jian has been looking for an instructor suitable for this aspect.

Until recently, he finally found out about someone.

Liu Jian thinks this person is more suitable, and currently this person is near Youzheng.Therefore, this is also one of the reasons why Liu Jian came to Youzhou this time.

Now in Youzhou, there is an elder who used to be famous in Luoyang.

"Among Huan Ling, there is King Yue of Huben, who is good at Sishu and is known as the capital."

This Huben Wang Yue, who was famous for his swordsmanship in the capital in history, was said to be the number one swordsman in the Sili area at that time.

However, although this Wang Yue's swordsmanship was famous, even during the Huanling period, it was also famous across Luoyang Sanhe, but it quickly disappeared.

This is completely reasonable. After all, Sili at that time was the center of the world, the most benevolent place in the capital, and all the talents in the world gathered there.

As for Wang Yue, firstly, he is not a famous Confucian scholar, secondly, he is not a secular Qingliu, thirdly, he does not seem to have much contact with eunuchs, fourthly, he is not a fierce general who is good at military...

The only thing he is good at seems to be the swordsmanship used in fighting.

But what this swordsmanship can bring him is only a momentary fame, and as far as his future development is concerned, it is of no use at that time.

Whether it is the Second Emperor Huan Ling or the high-ranking nobleman Yue, it seems that there is no need to reuse a swordsman like him, even if he is reused, what is the use?
Eunuchs can't reuse Wang Yue to kill party members, can they?
The gentry can't ask Wang Yue to dance his sword and enter the palace to kill eunuchs, right?
The emperor can't use a swordsman to command thousands of troops to put down the rebellion, right?
So he, the No. [-] swordsman in the capital, is actually a man who doesn't stick to anything.

Fart is useless.

Therefore, Wang Yue lived to a very old age, but he didn't see much promise, and he had the name of a swordsman for nothing.

He didn't want to devote himself to being a diner in the mansion of a noble family, he thought it was too cheap, after all, he still had the aura of the protagonist of the capital's number one swordsman on his head, and being a diner was a knight-errant behavior, and Wang Yue still didn't want to do that !
So he muddled around until now.

Having lived to this age, Wang Yue has already accepted his fate. He felt that he might not achieve any great achievements in this life, so he practiced swords in Youzhou with peace of mind, and practiced swords without distractions.

This is actually a good thing for his swordsmanship realm, which made him achieve a qualitative leap in swordsmanship in his later years.

Over the years, he also adopted several orphans in Youzhou who had no father or mother, and taught him all his sword skills.

Not to mention, some of these children are really good and decent, and they have become Wang Yue's proud disciples.

Wang Yue is already over 50 years old. He thought that this life would be like this, but he did not expect that on his 55th birthday, he got a job offer from General Fuyuan in his thatched hut in Juzhong, Wuzhong County. A birthday gift sent by Liu Jian.

That big gift not only included precious things such as gold, silk and satin, famous utensils, but also six pots of feathered arrows and a valuable carriage.

But this time, the person who came to visit Wang Yue on behalf of Liu Jian was Xia Houlan, the personal general who was in charge of the Baimu Army of the personal guard for Liu Jian.

After Xia Houlan congratulated Wang Yue on behalf of Liu Jian, she immediately sent a letter written by Liu Jian to Wang Yue.

Although Wang Yue has lived in seclusion in the countryside for many years, it does not mean that he is ignorant of major events in the world.

Especially now that all counties in Hebei are promoting Ta Kung Pao on a monthly basis, and Ta Kung Pao will deliver important events in the world to townships in various places on time every month.

Among them, the most transmitted one is naturally about what Liu Jian has done in recent years.

The people of Hebei are all admirable for the many great things Liu Jian has done.

Wang Yue is also one of the local residents in Hebei. Other people admire Liu Jian very much, and Wang Yue naturally admires him too.

After all, he has been living in Hebei these years, and Wang Yue can also benefit from every policy in Hebei that benefits the people's livelihood.

It is precisely because of Liu Jian that Hebei can be so stable today, and Wang Yue can also practice swords, teach students, and live a nourishing and comfortable life in the countryside under such stable conditions without any worries.

Unknowingly, Liu Jian became the person Wang Yue admired in his heart.

However, Wang Yue had no chance to meet Liu Jian.

It's not that he doesn't want to see it, but that he is not qualified to see it.

Don't look at him living in the tiger's nest in Luoyang back then, but he was only famous for a while, and then disappeared among the common people.

And Liu Jian is now representing the Son of Heaven, a figure who exercises the Han regime in the north. In this world, it can be said that he is under one person and above tens of thousands.

How could Wang Yue be compared with Liu Jian?

How could the general be someone Wang Yue could cling to?

But today, Liu Jian took the initiative to send someone to pick Wang Yue up to meet him.

In Liu Jian's letter, he generally said to Wang Yue:
"I heard that in ancient times, the emperor used shooting to select the princes, high officials, and scholars. The princes offered tribute to the emperor every year, and the emperor tried them in the shooting palace, and those who were more were given as sacrifices, but those who were less were not. Teach the law to Situ, "

"Retire and award it to the local officials, so that everyone can teach them to rule, to test their virtues, to observe their skills, and the local officials will perform shooting rituals to recommend talents."

"Before and after the shooting ceremony, there are often swallows to drink, and the rural shooting ceremony often goes hand in hand with the rural drinking ceremony. The reporter of "Yili" said that the rural shooting is made up of two heroes. Take three couplers."

"Today Liu is traveling to Youbeiping. I would like to invite the prince to come and be fat for a while with the gift of three couples. Don't refuse, don't refuse!"

Wang Yue slowly put down the bamboo slips in his hand, closed his eyes, and sighed with emotion.

"The general treats each other like this, how can he not come?"

"I also ask Mr. Xiahou to go first. Wang and his disciples will set off immediately after the hour."

Xia Houlan said: "Master Wang is admired by the general. Before Lan left, he was asked by the general to use this car to take everyone to Feiru. If you don't take this car, Lan will be dereliction of duty. I'm afraid Wuyan goes back to meet the lord, and please don't make things difficult for me, everyone."

Naturally, Wang Yue couldn't refuse Xia Houlan's sincere invitation.

"Hey, it's the luck of Wang's life to be so valued by a hero like the General as he is getting old... Anyway, since Mr. Xiahou invites you so sincerely, then Mr. Wang will lick it." Take this car with a straight face, and Fan Jun will lead the way."
