As a card that can make a name for itself in a minority regime, it is obvious that the overall quality of this summoning card is quite good.

At present, there are two people who are obviously god-level figures, namely Wang Meng and Liu Bingzhong.

At least, the quality of this card has been greatly improved compared to the last No. 1 Summoning Card.

In the last random summoning of the champion, let alone god-level characters, the list that was exposed actually didn’t have many true heaven-level characters. In that random summoning of the champion, those who could reach the heaven-level in terms of ability were already the best among them.

On the other hand, the Hanchen random summoning card this time not only has two god-level characters, but also the list of heaven-level characters is everywhere. Looking around, you can easily catch a lot of them.

Except for the last group which lagged behind a bit, the first nine types were almost all talented people with at least one attribute reaching 90+.

There are even several groups that are almost entirely composed of top-level talents.

This quality ranks among the best among many random summon cards.

It’s still the same old rule, out of the eight characters in the system, only four can be drawn from the top five organizations.

"System, in the Qing Dynasty group, select Zeng Guofan."

The overall quality of this group is indeed among the best.

However, if I really have to choose one, it is indeed a difficult choice.

After all, the ones that can be used as alternatives each have their own advantages.

However, Wang Yu finally chose Zeng Guofan, who was hailed as a half-saint!

The Zuo Zhuan once proposed a "three immortals" viewpoint, which holds that the noblest person must first have moral character, then meritorious service, and finally ideological character. And his moral character, meritorious service, and ideological character are enduring from a historical perspective. A person who possesses these three immortal qualities is a person of "the highest virtue."

  Liang Qichao said that only those who can achieve the "three immortals" are worthy of being called "sages". This standard is measured based on the three standards of meritorious service, moral integrity and words. These three standards are:

Meritorious service: refers to outstanding achievements in politics, military or other fields.

Morality: refers to a person's moral qualities and personal charm.

To establish a theory: refers to putting forward unique insights and theories in thought, philosophy or other fields.

As for how many saints China has produced, Liang Qichao believed that there were only "two and a half": Confucius was one, Wang Yangming was one, and Zeng Guofan was half.

But for some reason, Zhuge Liang was added later, and they were called "three and a half saints." Later, someone wielded a great brush and added Mencius and Laozi, making it "five and a half."

"System, among the group of Former Qin, choose Wang Meng."

In this group, there is naturally no doubt about it, there is no other choice.

In fact, among the entire list, Wang Meng has the highest overall quality at the moment.

Wang Meng, "the first person whose achievements surpass Zhuge Liang", whether Wang Meng's achievements can surpass Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of Shu Han during the Three Kingdoms period, not everyone is qualified to comment on this statement, at least, keyboard warriors are not qualified to comment on it.

After all, Prime Minister Zhuge Liang devoted his life to the Shu Han Dynasty until his death, and became the embodiment of loyal ministers and wise men in all dynasties in later generations. However, Wang Meng's contributions and achievements are also recorded in history.

In politics, Wang Meng resisted the Di and Qiang nobles, rectified the administration of officials, and strengthened central power.

In the military field, he led troops to destroy the Former Yan, stayed in Ye, and served as the commander-in-chief of the military affairs of the six states in Guandong. He made great contributions to the unification of the north and advised Fu Jian not to attack the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

In terms of economy, he encouraged people to engage in agriculture and sericulture, opened up mountains and swamps, developed water conservancy projects, and improved farming, so that fields were opened up and warehouses were filled.

During his reign, he selected talented people for office, emphasized practical results, and achieved remarkable political achievements, and "Guanlong was peaceful and prosperous, and the people were happy."

He governed the country and made Former Qin the most vibrant state among the northern countries; he commanded the troops and was always victorious in attack and battle, showing outstanding military talent and general style.

Facing crises on all sides, he and Fu Jian formulated the development direction of the Former Qin: stabilize the northwest to eliminate worries; fight for the southeast to achieve great things. In less than ten years, the Former Qin unified the north.

However, Wang Meng's era was an era of generals and ministers. Wang Meng needed to maintain internal stability and go out to fight. The heavy workload soon broke Wang Meng's body. Wang Meng became ill from overwork and died within a year. Like Zhuge Liang, Wang Meng was posthumously named "Wu Hou", which was Fu Jian's high recognition of Wang Meng.

However, Wang Meng's strategy was still implemented, and the 36 states in the Western Regions were quickly pacified, and the Dongyi and Southwestern Yi also came to pay homage. At this time, Fu Jian's slogan was "unify the world and save the people", completely comparing himself to Qin Shihuang, and the national strength of Qin was also the strongest.

Wang Meng did not do many things, such as Murong Chui, Wang Meng advocated not to keep him. Fu Jian did not agree with Wang Meng's suggestion, saying that it was time to use people and he should not kill generals. Facts proved that Wang Meng's judgment was accurate. After the Battle of Feishui, Murong Chui quickly established the State of Yan, which was called the Later Yan. Wang Meng suggested that Fu Jian should not attack the Eastern Jin Dynasty too quickly, but Fu Jian finally attacked the Eastern Jin Dynasty, which directly led to the Battle of Feishui. Fu Jian was killed shortly after this battle.

  Ancient people once commented: Fu Jian was a man of good judgment and quick to accept good ideas. Wang Meng had the talent of a king's assistant and was eager to make progress. The relationship between the king and his subjects was so harmonious that it was considered a once-in-a-millennium event!

It can even be said that the relationship between Wang Meng and Fu Jian as monarch and minister can almost be seen as a replica of the relationship between Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei as monarch and minister.

"System, among the Jin Dynasty group, choose Wang Bolong."

"Among the former Yan group, choose Feng Yi."

In the next three groups, Jin, Former Yan and Liao, there is no figure like Wang Meng who is obviously far superior to others in the same group.

Therefore, among these three groups, those slightly more outstanding ones will not make much difference no matter which one they choose.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining Zeng Guofan, implanted identity: Great scholar of Shangyin Academy, invited by the great scholar Cai Yong."

"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining Wang Meng, implanting his identity, a student of Shangyin Academy, and also a descendant of the Wang family of Yanbei."

It is said that Confucianism is truly full of talented people.

From this point of view, among the hundreds of schools of thought, no other school can compare with them at all.

Especially after the system characters were strengthened, other families had no choice but to compete with Confucianism in terms of talent.

Taoism and Buddhism seem to have benefited from a lot of myths, but since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty abolished all schools of thought and promoted Confucianism alone, almost all scholars in later generations can be said to be Confucianists. Even if they have benefited from myths, they cannot compare to this advantage.

  Talents like Zhuge Liang, Zhang Liang, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Xun Yu, Gao Jiong, Wang Meng... even if they are myths, how many can compare to them after being pulled into the system?

The benefits that can be enjoyed in mythology are actually mostly from some celestial-level masters or divine generals.

  However, the price-performance ratio of both products is not comparable at all!

Even for a master like Kunpeng, their value is far different from that of strategic talents like Zhuge Liang and Wang Meng.

Among the most important attributes of military force, command, intelligence, and politics, the least valuable and least cost-effective are actually military talents.

As for those with the highest cost-effectiveness, they are actually political talents.

The exercise of command and intelligence requires political backing. Not only does politics need to provide them with logistics, but more importantly, war is not fought simply for the sake of fighting, but to achieve the political goals behind it.

If a war is fought not to achieve the political purpose behind it, but simply for the sake of fighting, then the national strength will only become weaker and weaker until it is exhausted to death.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining Wang Bolong, implanted identity, Wang Bodang's younger brother."

Speaking of which, this one can be considered a small boss-level character.

In history, the rise of Wanyan Aguda had a lot to do with the emergence of many famous generals among the Jurchens. It is worth noting that among these generals there were not only Jurchens but also Han people.

The most outstanding Han general of the Jin Dynasty was Wang Bolong. He participated in almost all major battles in the process of destroying Liao and invading Song. He led his troops from Liaodong all the way to Jianghuai. His military exploits were no less than those of all the Jurchen generals of the same period.

It is understandable that he was cruel and performed outstandingly in the war against Liao, but as a general whose subordinates were mainly Han people, Wang Bolun was also ruthless to his fellow Song people. He started slaughtering Song civilians and soldiers when he attacked the counties in Hebei. He also took the lead in the battle to capture Bianliang later, showing his iron-blooded and ruthless side.

The iron-blooded and ruthless methods he displayed in the war were even more brutal than those of many Jurchen generals.

Not only that, when pursuing the fleeing King Kang Zhao Gou to the south, he also served as a vanguard officer and swept across the Jianghuai River, burning, killing and looting wherever he went. Countless innocent Han people died under his butcher knife.

In short, this man is a heroic man in the eyes of the Jurchens, and a devil in the eyes of the Song people.

Moreover, this person can barely be said to have defeated Yue Fei.

Of course, from the perspective of Jin history, Yue Fei was just a general who was defeated in every battle and could not be considered a famous general or a hero at all.

"Zongbi returned to Bian, and Yue Fei and other troops all retreated"; "The army crossed Cai Shi and defeated Yue Fei"; "Zongxiu led 3,000 infantry and cavalry to block the vital points, and then joined other troops to defeat them." There are also records such as Alupu and others severely defeated Yue Fei, and Yue Fei led an army of 100,000 to attack the city but failed and had to retreat.

As for the credibility of these records, that is a matter of opinion.

  In addition, the civilians who were hired to transport food and fodder for Yue Fei were also praised to the sky by them. Is this their "achievement" in defeating Yue Fei?

Furthermore, according to the records about Wang Bolong defeating Yue Fei, Yue Fei was just a rookie at that time, a small soldier, or at most a low-level officer, and had no right to command the war.

  If the blame for this kind of defeat could be put on Yue Fei, then how many famous generals in the world are truly undefeated? How many famous generals started out as soldiers? For example, Bai Qi never lost when he was a famous general, so did he also lose when he was a soldier?

If the main general above commands the generals below and the generals below are defeated, the blame can be put on the main general. After all, commanding the generals, arranging each general to the appropriate position and making the best use of their talents are what they should do.

However, it is not acceptable to put the blame on the soldiers for the defeat of the main general.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining Feng Yi, implanting an identity, a student of Shangyin Academy, a classmate of Wang Meng, and preparing to go to the Han Dynasty with Wang Meng to serve."

"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining Jie Cheng and implanting his identity as a general of the Fierce Whale Corps."

It seems that I accidentally drew the hidden candidate, and he is a pretty good naval commander.

A famous general of the "Han Army" in the Yuan Dynasty, he was good at commanding the navy, and the fierce general Zhu Guobao was his subordinate. In 1275, the Yuan army and the Song army fought at Jiaoshan, which was a naval duel. The commander of the Song army, Zhang Shijie, ordered the Song army to link the warships together and prepare for a decisive battle.

Zhang Shijie was courageous, but his combat skills were not high. Xie Cheng and Zhang Hongfan used fire attack, and the Song army was defeated again, and the capital Lin'an was in danger. Soon, Empress Dowager Xie took the young emperor to surrender, and the Southern Song Dynasty was doomed.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining the title of Ren Shang, implanting the identity, and becoming a military officer of the Tiger Legion."

"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining Gao Yun, implanting an identity, a student of Shangyin Academy, a classmate of Wang Meng, and preparing to go to the Han Dynasty with Wang Meng to serve."

"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining Shi Baidu, implanting his identity, the leader of the Liuhe Gang of the Dasheng Dynasty. After Su Dingfang destroyed Dasheng, he took the initiative to submit to Su Dingfang."
