contend

Chapter 362 Joint Force
Xitao slaughtered the Lujie tribe, not only the Hexi tribes were frightened.

The powerful scholars of Wuwei were also deeply shocked.

But on the other hand, Yang Zheng's strength and iron blood also proved that he has the ability to compete with Yong Liang.

For hundreds of years, the tyrants of the Shi family are best at standing in line.

The so-called loyalty is just for window dressing.

Xun Yu was loyal to the Han family, but the Xun family defected to Cao Wei and Sima Jin successively, becoming the most prosperous clan in the Wei and Jin Dynasties.

In Yang Zheng's view, aristocratic families are like vines. When you become strong, you will never lack followers.

After the Huangfu clan fell to Yang Zheng, the Zhang clan and Wu clan in Anding, the Li clan in Longxi, the Jia clan in Wuwei, the Liao clan, the Suo clan, etc. were all making compromises with Yang Zheng.

It's time to start the imperial examination.

Yang Zheng looked at the increasingly prosperous Guzang City and muttered to himself.

The scars of war seem to have been healed.

The people resumed their previous stable lives.

The number of merchants who came from south to north to east to west gradually increased.

Apart from Xiping soldiers and civilians, those who supported Yang Zheng the most were these businessmen.

Wherever Yang Zheng's knife advanced, their figures appeared there.

In the whole of Hexi, no, in the whole of the north, Yang Zheng's business tax is the lowest, and he also has security guarantees.

As long as they are under Yang Zheng's rule, there will be no horse bandits emerging in endlessly, no sergeants who will block the road at will, and no local government will just find an excuse to take away half of the goods.

Salt, leather goods, and livestock in Xiping are all in short supply, and they lie between Shu and the Central Plains. Brocade fabrics, lacquer ware, and bamboo ware from Shu, and green glazed porcelain and pottery from Wei all retreat to the Western Regions through Hexi.

The core of the economy lies in circulation.

Yao Zhen went north to Hexi, and what he brought was not death, but more prosperity, and the Liangzhou gentry, strong and weak, all got a share of the pie.

Interest bundling is the most direct and most ineffective means of alliance.

When midsummer approached, Suo Jing issued a decree asking all counties to nominate talents.

Xiping has developed into its current scale, and the youth camp is obviously falling behind.

It is a disaster for a child of seventeen or eighteen to become a county magistrate.

Few of the enlisted soldiers are educated people, Suo Jing is our loyalty, but putting us in this position will not only harm us, but also harm the local people.

Now that we are at a critical time of rising, what is lacking are local cultural and political talents.

That has always been Xiping's shortcoming.

Similarly, the powerful and weak scholars also need to retreat into Suo Jing's frame in that way.

But we were unprepared for a long time ago, and the young and ineffective children in our family were all elected.

From the township to the county, from the county to the county, from the county to Guzang.

Liangzhou in January is not scorching cold.

The cool breeze blows up from the Qilian Mountains, bringing the coldness of the Xiaoxue Mountains along with it.

There are two examination questions in the seventh year of Zhengyuan. The first is to examine the classics of poetry, books, Yi, rites, and spring and autumn that have been passed down since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Du Yu's obsessed You Zhuan was also incorporated into the Spring and Autumn Period.

The seventh is the policy theory of the current situation.

You can talk about anything, the dispute between Huayi, Xiaoyi, the situation in Liangzhou, the situation in the Eight Kingdoms, etc., you can talk about anything, you can talk about it, let a hundred flowers bloom, and a hundred schools of thought contend, as long as you say nothing and talk unreasonably.

There are no restrictions on the subjects of imperial examinations.

The scholars in Liangzhou are strong and weak, but Yongzhou, Shu, and the Central Plains are cautious.

It doesn't matter if the scholars are powerful or weak, and they can read and write. They only need to register at the Xuanyi Department and pass the basic examination to participate in the Guzang imperial examination.

A stone stirred up a thousand waves.

In any era, no bosom is the one who meets.

In China in that era, common people, small households, poor families, powerful and weak, noble families, and powerful families retreated in order.

After all, the top aristocrats are only a minority, while the common people, small households, poor families, powerful and weak are a small minority.

The imperial examinations were presided over by Lu Zhi, Du Yu, and Wei Guan, assisted by Du Zhai, Zhang Yu, and Zhang Huan, and Suo Jing had half a bottle of water, that is to say, outside.

The first year is to select amazing talents, only to be able to work in the place.

However, things can always exceed Suo Jing's expectations.

In the first year, eight young talents emerged.

Huangfu Tao, Yang Zheng, Zhang Teng.

Huangfu Tao and Zhang Tengce's papers are brilliant and hit the current situation, but they don't impress Suo Jing in general. Of course, for Xiping who is hungry and thirsty, they can be regarded as the best choice.
But Yang Zheng made Yao Zhen's eyes brighten. The cursive script in one hand is steep and firm, strong and weak, and it's out of circle. It's like a work of art...

And my policy theory is more like strategic planning.

He led the various tribes in Liangzhou, gathered the elite soldiers from the eight counties of Jiuquan, Zhangye, and Dunhuang, and pacified Dichang in one fell swoop, then conquered Loulan, took the money and silk from the west, trained the elite soldiers in Hexi, and fought for the front in Guanzhong...

Yao Zhen was dizzy from seeing what kind of metaphysics my young master was doing.

Seeing Yang Zheng's strategy and theory, there is nothing like a spring breeze and a refreshing feeling.

Moreover, the strategy I proposed requires Yao Zhen to work hard for a few years. He only needs to use the strength of the surrounding Qianghu tribes and our eight counties to wipe out the Western Regions.

What is even more clever is that it can take a step back and integrate the eight counties of Jiuquan, Zhangye, and Dunhuang.

Seven birds with one stone, the eight counties, the Hexi tribes, and the Western Regions were all taken care of.

The momentum revealed between the layman's words is clearly both civil and military.

Seeing him in person, Yao Zhen was even more surprised. He was only 11 years old, his eyes were calm and calm, whether he was humble or arrogant when he met Suo Jing.

That is the top talent of the gentry.

What is the 11-year-old self still doing in the future?

There is nothing to say, the ancients matured earlier, abnormal people worked at the age of seven or eight, went to the fields at the age of one or four, married at the age of eighteen or seventeen, and went to the battlefield at the age of seventeen or eighteen.

It's okay to be precocious.

Cao Chong, Zhuge Ke, Zhong Hui and others have all emerged for many years.

Talents like Yang Zheng naturally have to be with me. Since I am too old, I should be rewarded too much. I was only given the title of official and stayed with me as a military counselor.

An imperial examination, very few passed.

The quality of the talents of the powerful and weak of the gentry is quite low, and they are all well-educated people.

At that time, Confucianism was still in decline, so the vast majority of Confucian scholars had few brushes.

In the Eastern Jin Dynasty 100 years ago, when the gentry degenerated into clans, it was the time when Confucianism was completely corrupted.

The powerful and weak scholars from Liangzhou were squeezed out in the circle of power in Luoyang, hungry and thirsty for a long time, and Suo Jing was like a firewood.

The front layer of window paper was also pierced in Suo Jing'an.

The Battle of Yuyin, the Battle of Xitao, and the Battle of Xiaoguan, one after another, it shows that Suo Jing is a reliable person.

Although Cao Wei did not have a little bit of righteousness, but we must forget that that era was still in troubled times, and the eight kingdoms were at the same time, and no one was truly orthodox.

County magistrates, officials, masters, and long history soon ran out of candidates.

The manpower of various departments has gradually become abundant.

Whether it was the Xuanyi Division, the Zhechong Mansion, the Eighth Battalion of the Pro-Army, the Fourth Camp, or Suo Jing's private land, was firmly out of hand.

Only the right to govern the local area was given up.

But that was enough to make the gentry powerful and weak angry.

Some powerful and weak directly took their trilogy to join the army, which was not common in the late Han Dynasty.

For example, Li Dian took nearly ten thousand pieces and went directly to Cao Cao.

Huangfu's family was most tied to Yao Zhen, Huangfu Tao was willing to govern, so he simply joined the army with [-] pieces of music, prepared his own weapons and food, and was directly named a captain by Suo Jing.

My Wu family, Liang family, Liao family, and Longxi Li family also imitated Huangfu's family and produced their own trilogy.

If we dare to come, there is no reason to reject it.

Suo Jing received all the orders, and was named Qu Chang or Duwei. Every army was like the eighth battalion of personal guards. Xuanyi Lang and Xuanyi Order were set up in every village to prevent some people from thinking.

Just for those strong and weak, the Xiping Army has expanded by 4000 people.

And according to the four camping investigations, all of them are genuine elites.

Knowing it or realizing it, the time to send troops to the Western Regions has come.

Whether the strong and the weak are mules or horses, they always have to be pulled out for a walk.

Moreover, the leaders of Hexi Qianghu also arrived one after another, and more than a dozen major forces were gathered together.
