Great Military Division

Chapter 251 On the Possibility of Implementing Imperial Examinations in the Educational Environment of the Late Han Dynasty!
Outside the Yuanyuan Pass, there are green mountains and clear waters.

A leafy boat goes down the river.

in the cabin.

Liu Bian glanced at Zao Zhi who was studying "The Essentials of Farming", smiled, and turned to look at Xun Yu at the door: "Wen Ruo, you and Zi Jing seem to be both from Yingchuan, right?"

(PS: There are explanations in "Shuowen Jiezi" and "Guang Ya": "Zi, Jingye! Therefore, the word Zijing is chosen. Although it is the same as Lu Su, I really can't think of a better word.")
"Yes."

Xun Yu nodded and nodded, "Zijing is from Yangzhai, Yingchuan, and his subordinates are from Yingyin."

Thinking of Ying Chuan's name, Liu Bian couldn't help but praise: "Ying Chuan is really an outstanding person, and there are so many talented people! Wen Ruo, didn't you promise to recommend talents for Gu Gu?"

"Not as good."

Liu Bian smiled lightly, and said with great interest: "Taking this opportunity, how about recommending seven or eight people first? Don't worry, Gu will never treat them badly."

"Ah, this"

Xun Yu frowned slightly, slightly embarrassed: "Your Majesty did promise to recommend some talents, but seven or eight people are too many. Considering our tight schedule, why not recommend one person first?"

"it is good!"

Liu Bian readily agreed: "One is not too few, ten is not too many, as long as it is a talent recommended by you Xun Yu, Gu will definitely reuse it, first tell Gu about his basic situation."

This scene immediately caused a burst of excitement in the live broadcast room:
"Fuck! The mobile talent pool is finally going to play a role?"

"There are so many talents in Yingchuan, it would be a pity not to take away one or two."

"Exactly! Xun Yu is too stingy to recommend only one?"

"Guess everyone, Guo Jia, or Xi Zhicai?"

"According to history, it should be Xi Zhicai."

"Great talents don't die, and filial piety doesn't come out. Are you joking?"

"."

really.

When it comes to the talents of the Three Kingdoms at the end of Han Dynasty.

There is always a heated discussion in the live broadcast room.

The enthusiasm of sand sculpture netizens will never be quenched.

Xun Yu was clearly prepared, he bowed, and said directly: "This man is called Xixian, and his character is Zhicai. He and Yu are both from Yingchuan. This talent is full of talent and has good plans. Your Highness will definitely like it."

"Play Zhicai?"

Liu Bian's eyes brightened.

It was really guessed by sand sculpture netizens.

The talent Xun Yu first recommended was not Guo Jia, but Xi Zhicai.

Could it be
Is this person really stronger than Guo Jia?
Liu Bian was puzzled and asked tentatively, "How is this person compared to you?"

Xun Yu was not polite: "It is several times better than me."

"Ha ha."

Very familiar line.

Liu Bian reflexively said, "Impossible."

But Xun Yu was even more affirmative: "Several times, even dozens of times."

Liu Bian took a deep breath and remembered it in his heart: "Okay, let's go meet this talented actor first."

Xun Yu bowed: "Don't worry, Your Highness, this person will never disappoint His Highness."

The netizens in the live broadcast room were boiling again, chattering:

"Okay! You're really talented."

"Xi Zhicai's name is actually a virtuous character?"

"Okay, this time it's the truth."

"Unfortunately, he is a short-lived ghost."

"."

Liu Bian didn't care what Xi Zhicai's name was, let alone whether he was a short-lived ghost.

He just felt slightly regretful, and thought to himself: "Oh, it's a pity it's not Guo Jia!"

As soon as the words fell, the voice of the Military Division Alliance sounded: "Master Bian, don't worry, none of the talents in Yingchuan County can escape. After the new dynasty is established, the first thing we need to solve is the problem of talents."

"In addition to the mutual recommendation of existing personnel, we must follow the example of Cao Cao and promulgate the "Order to Promote Talents", or let people from the mountains and fields recommend themselves, and the imperial court will uniformly arrange assessments to lay a foundation for the imperial examination in advance."

The talent selection system in the Han Dynasty mainly consisted of investigation and recruitment.

Compared with the official system in the pre-Qin period, it is undoubtedly a huge improvement. However, in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the system of judging and procuring was monopolized by the aristocratic family. "The absurd situation.

Compared with the examination system, the imperial examination system is a huge improvement. It is a relatively fair form of talent selection, which can absorb a large number of people from poor families and enter the ruling class.

of course!

For those in high positions, the imperial examination system is a means to balance the contradictions between aristocratic families and poor families. Once the imperial examination is out, for Xu Rong and others, it can be regarded as an explanation.

"The imperial examination?"

Liu Bian frowned slightly: "Is this possible?"

The Alliance of Military Division explained: "It's just laying the foundation, so there must be no problem, not to mention that during the Han Dynasty, it wasn't that there were no exams, it was just that it didn't become popular."

"Oh?"

Liu Bian was very puzzled: "Really?"

The Military Division Alliance said with great certainty: "Of course it is! According to experts from the history department, in the late Han Dynasty, the imperial court had Taixue, Hongdumenxue, Didixue, and Xiaohouxue with four surnames."

"Of course, there is no need to repeat Taixue. In the fifth year of Yuanshuo, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, 50 doctoral disciples were set up, and Taixue was officially established in the northwest suburb of Chang'an, Kyoto."

"As for Hongdumen School, it was founded in the first year of Guanghe, Emperor Ling of the Eastern Han Dynasty. It was named after the school site was Hongdumen in Luoyang. It is the earliest art college in ancient my country."

"what?"

Liu Bian was surprised: "Academy of arts and literature? What do you teach here? Music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and hops?"

The Military Division Alliance explained: "Fu, novels, rulers, calligraphy, calligraphy and painting, etc."

"So it is."

Liu Bian heaved a sigh of relief, then asked again: "What about the four surnames Xiao Houxue? This name is interesting."

Military division alliance: "The Four Surnames Xiaohou School is an aristocratic school founded by foreign relatives. It was founded in the ninth year of Emperor Yongping of the Eastern Han Dynasty. The so-called four surnames, that is, the four clans of Fan, Guo, Yin, and Ma, are not Liehou, so they are named Xiaohou. "

"As for Di Di Xue"

The Military Division Alliance gave a simple explanation: "It is similar to Xiaohou School with four surnames. They are all aristocratic schools, and they enroll the children of King Jibei and King Hejian, the younger brothers of Emperor Hanhe."

"Among them, more than 5 people over the age of 40, recruited more than 30 descendants of close relatives of the Deng family, and opened them in the palace. Special teachers and nannies were set up to teach scriptures."

"It is said that Empress Dowager Deng would go to the mansion to raise and teach the children in person every morning and evening. This is the earliest school for early childhood education in my country."

Liu Bian was shocked: "I have been taught!"

The Military Division Alliance continued to introduce the education system of the Han Dynasty: "In addition, the Han Dynasty also set up local government schools according to administrative regions, counties set up 'schools', counties and towns set up 'schools', townships set up 'Xiang', and gathered (villages) Set 'order'."

"Therefore, the education system of the Han Dynasty was relatively complete, but it did not have a special educational administrative agency. The educational institution in the imperial court was called Taichang, which was also in charge of education, and local schools were also managed by administrators at all levels."

"Expert guess!"

The Alliance of Military Division emphasized: "It may be precisely because there is no special education administrative agency, and education projects are managed by Taichang and local officials, that it did not grow in the end."

"However, precisely because the Han Dynasty had a complete education system, it provided certain possibilities for Master Bian to implement the imperial examination system, and the degree of difficulty dropped sharply."

A purely new thing, no matter how good it is, is always very difficult for people to accept. It requires a very complicated process before it can be truly accepted by people.

If the big Han did not have a teaching environment from the central to the local, or even deep into the villages, it would be very difficult for experts to implement the imperial examination system.

It is equivalent to a process from scratch.

The most important thing is that although the education system is easy to build, whether it can be accepted by the common people and the gentry is a very serious process that cannot be ignored.

"Yes."

Liu Bian nodded with great interest: "That's the truth."

The Military Division Alliance continued: "The students of Taixue are doctoral students, also known as "Zhusheng". In addition to the "formal students" directly selected by the capital, the local educated youths selected by the counties and counties are "students". Special Raw'."

"It's just that in terms of background, most of the imperial students are from noble families, but there are also children from poorer families. The 'official students' are paid by the government, and the imperial court pays them; the 'special students' are paid by themselves, and they have to take care of their own board and lodging."

"."

"It's just an official school. The private school in the Eastern Han Dynasty was more popular. In terms of organization, it can be divided into two types: one is the elementary school, and the other is the jingshe."

"Mengxue is the place where children learn. It is also called a library, and teachers call it a calligrapher. The learning content is mainly literacy and calligraphy, focusing on children's enlightenment."

"The only calligraphy used in the library is "Jijiupian", which is said to have been compiled by Shiyou in the Western Han Dynasty."

"Jijiupian has a total of 1244 characters, including surnames, clothing, agriculture, food, utensils, music, physiology, weapons, birds, animals, medicine, personnel and other practical characters."

"The full text rhymes, there are no repeated words, and the sentences have seven, four, and three words. It is easy to memorize and practical. It has been widely circulated. It is the main literacy textbook from Han to Tang."

"."

"As for the jingshe, it is equivalent to the folk Taixue. It is taught by the Confucianism of the Normal University. For example, Zheng Xuan is one of the most representative figures. ""Nine Chapters on Arithmetic" and so on."

"The disciples of the Jingshe are divided into two types: one is the close disciple, who comes to receive teaching in person; the other is the record disciple, who registers the student's name under the famous master's school, and does not listen to the teacher's lecture in person, which is a name for learning. "

"."

Liu Bian really didn't expect it.

In the educational system and environment of the Han Dynasty, modern traces can be found.

Moreover, after being introduced by experts, Liu Bian even felt that the so-called monopoly of knowledge by aristocratic families is not as serious as imagined. After all, private schools are prevalent, and many poor people have the opportunity to learn.

This really opened Liu Bian's horizons!

"Of course!"

Immediately afterwards, the Military Division Alliance emphasized: "Although the teaching system of Taixue is not strict, there is no fixed number of years of study, let alone attendance."

"But one thing is very important for us to recommend the imperial examination system! That is, it attaches great importance to examinations, and uses examinations to supervise and check students' academic performance."

"At the beginning of the founding of Taixue, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty stipulated that an examination should be organized every year with the method of "setting up subjects and shooting strategies", which is called "year-old examination" in history."

"The so-called shooting strategy refers to drawing lots for oral examination questions and answers; and the so-called setting of subjects is divided into two subjects according to the difficulty of the test questions. Students can take the test by drawing lots, and the test questions are written on the test questions."

"According to the results after the exam, a few or a dozen students will be selected based on the merits of each of the two subjects, and they will be awarded different official positions, such as Lang Zhong or Prince Sheren.

"."

"And it came to the period of Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty."

The voice of the Military Advisors Alliance showed a little bit of regret: "The two subjects of A and B were changed to upper, middle, and lower, and then changed to a biennial exam. There is no limit to the number of admissions, and different official positions are awarded according to the number of masters. .”

"Perhaps because the number of exams has decreased, coupled with various other reasons, this education system failed to hatch the imperial examination system in the end, but Chen Qun came up with a nine-rank Zhongzheng system!"

"Defense Lord!"

The Military Division Alliance said loudly: "Experts agree that with the teaching environment of the Han Dynasty, it is entirely possible to successfully implement the imperial examination. Let's lay the foundation a little bit, and then add some modern elements, which will be of great benefit to Master Bian's cultivation of talents."

"Including but not limited to classics, medicine, Gewu, arithmetic, geometry, calendar, etc., the content will be more complicated, and experts are also compiling materials as much as possible."

Nima!

Experts deserve to be experts.

It has already begun to prepare for the imperial examination system.

Hybrid rice, steel, weapon innovation, imperial examinations.
Liu Bian's head was getting bigger.

If it wasn't for relying on the alliance of military divisions and relying solely on personal strength, let alone helping the Han Dynasty, it is not certain whether they can survive.

"Your Highness!"

"Your Highness?"

When Liu Bian was silent in the expert's content, Xun Yu's voice pulled him back: "En? Wen Ruo, what's the matter?"

Xun Yu said softly, "We can disembark in a short distance. If I remember correctly, Zhicai should be there. Some time ago, we exchanged letters."

"it is good."

Liu Bian immediately became motivated: "No matter what, Gu must take this person away, even if he is tied up."

Uh.
Xun Yu looked slightly embarrassed.

Back then, King Hongnong said the same thing to himself: "Don't worry, Your Highness, Zhicai has the heart to serve the country. If you think about it, he will not refuse His Highness's invitation."

Liu Bian smiled lightly: "It's the best, and it saves you from being rude."

******
On the official road leading to Nanyang.

A long team is moving slowly.

In the team.

A red horse.

The man with the same appearance and stature as King Hongnong had a leisurely look and seemed a little nervous.

"Brother, don't be nervous."

At the side, Zhu Tong lowered his voice, but his eyes flickered from side to side all the time, alert to the dangers from all around: "His Highness's disguise technique back then was able to fool Niu Fu, and he would never reveal his secrets."

"Yes."

Shi A on the opposite side said with great certainty: "If we didn't know that you are a counterfeit, we would definitely not be able to tell at first glance, let alone where they are."

Fake Liu Bian took a deep breath and tried his best to keep himself calm: "Zhu Sima, it is dangerous because it is impossible to be seen through. You must protect me when the time comes."

"Do not worry."

Zhu Tong grinned lightly, and assured him: "It's just some thieves. I doubt whether he dares to come here. You know, our army has a total of 3000 people."

Although Liu Bian left the vast majority of his troops to Zhang Liao, he still brought back 3000 men, and all of them were elite troops who had experienced hundreds of battles.

Facing such a powerful force, Zhu Tong really couldn't think of any reason to be intercepted.

This is not to intercept, but to die.

Although, before King Hongnong left, he had given three assassination plans, but even if it was reasonable, Zhu Tong still couldn't believe that the other party really had the guts to intercept and kill King Hongnong!
"Yes."

Shi A on the side also echoed: "Maybe the Kong family will not dare to come here at all. As long as we pass through Duyang, we will be completely safe. Your kid will be the king of Hongnong for nothing. You have to ride a horse, and a high-ranking official has to do it. Take the reward money, it’s a big profit.”

"That can't be done."

Shi A teased on purpose: "When we return to Nanyang Wancheng, if you have a treat for a drink, go to Deng's Hongbin Building, where there are the most famous people."

Zhu Tong added: "The key is to spend more money!"

Uh.
Fake Liu Bian could only hehe: "As long as I can survive, I can treat the whole team to eat."

Zhu Tong's eyes brightened: "Okay! This is what you said, even if you die later, I will protect you well."

Shi Ati raised the sword in his hand: "Count me in."

suddenly.

The team in front slowly stopped.

Shi A and Zhu Tong stared forward, curious.

Fake Liu Bian became nervous subconsciously: "Zhu Sima, go and see, what happened?"

Zhu Tong glanced at Liu Bian: "Hey, how dare you command me?"

Fake Liu Bian hecked: "It's just a mouthful, don't take it seriously."

"okay."

Shi A beside him said softly: "Zhu Sima, hurry up, don't waste time."

Only then did Zhu Tong say grace: "Then you take care of it."

drive-!
Zhu Tongce stepped forward immediately: "Your Highness, what's going on, why did the team stop?"

Chen Wang and Liu Chong frowned and looked at the front: "I have a feeling that the ambush should be right ahead, and there are a lot of troops."

Zhu Tong smiled lightly: "That's just right, everything is going according to plan, remember to catch the living."

"kindness."

Liu Chong nodded and nodded: "Don't worry, just remember! It's you, you must hold on."

Zhu Tong patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry, Your Highness, let alone a small Kong family, even if Dong Zhuo came in person, we can still stand it."

"What's more."

Zhu Tong reminded with a smile: "Your Highness is a fake, did you forget?"

Liu Chong frowned: "I really forgot about this!"

"Uh"

"That's all right, let's go."

Then, Liu Chong waved his hand to signal the team to move on.

Zhu Tong retreated in dismay and returned to his original position.

"what happened?"

"It's all right."

"fine?"

"kindness."

Zhu Tong nodded: "Your Highness forgot that we are fake."

Shi A's face was full of black lines: "Uh, I can forget all of this."

Zhu Tong glanced at the fake Liu Bian, and said softly: "It's okay, let's go, finish early and go home early, I've been out for so long, I almost forgot what the way home looks like."

Shi Adan smiled and said, "Yes, you were originally from Nanyang Wancheng."

Zhu Tong nodded: "Yes, after the end, while His Highness hasn't come back, I'll show you the door."

"Okay, I can't ask for it."

"Then we have a deal."

"no problem."

"."

The two chatted one after another.

It won't be long.

The team stepped into the forest path.

Zhu Tong and Shi A became vigilant subconsciously.

Because according to the plan given by King Hongnong, the possibility of encountering an ambush here is the greatest.

clatter!clatter!clatter!
The sound of the team's orderly footsteps echoed in the woods.

suddenly.

A flash of metal flashed before Shi A's eyes.

He subconsciously turned his head to look.

but see
From the wormwood bushes in the dense forest, a row of broad-headed crossbows protruded, and the arrows gleaming with icy sharp edges were aiming at the team in the middle, ready to launch an attack at any time.

Clang!

Shi A drew his sword out of its sheath without hesitation, and shouted sharply: "There is an ambush in the forest, protect Your Highness!"

In an instant, the personal guards immediately entered the fighting state, and the outermost sword and shield soldiers formed a shield formation as quickly as possible, protecting the fake Liu Bian, Shi A and others inside.

at the same time.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
A wave of powerful arrows roared out of the forest, like a torrential rain, and hit the shield wall built by the guards, making a dense sound.

Although it was an ambush in a hurry, fortunately, the team was well prepared, and Shi A had noticed the abnormality in advance, so it didn't cause too many casualties.

Chen Wang Liu Chong reacted quickly, pointing his long sword at the dense forest angrily, and let out a roar of thunder: "The crossbowman strikes back!"

The crossbowmen in the team quickly twirled their bows and set their arrows, aiming at the dense forest, a wave of precise arrows was reflected.

The opponent only had a few hundred strong crossbows, but Liu Chong did have nearly a thousand strong bows under his tent.

This wave of arrows counterattacked instantly made Artemisia tremble, and the miserable wailing sounded one after another, one after another.

Chen Wang Liu Chong was afraid that he would kill them all, so he immediately shouted sharply: "Stop beating, rush in, catch alive, catch one person, and give him a reward."

"rush-!"

Under the reward, there must be a brave man.

present.

The black soldiers and horses, carrying shields and long swords, ran towards the forest.

King Chen and Liu Chong hurriedly waved: "Your Highness, go quickly, this place is not safe."

Zhu Tong waved his hand and ordered sonorously: "Quick! Speed ​​up and get out of the forest to a safe place."

All the soldiers rushed out quickly.

but
Just when they were about to run out of the jungle.

"kill-!"

Shocking shouts of killing suddenly resounded.

In an instant, a team emerged from the dense forest, holding up the weapons in their hands, and rushed towards Shi A and Zhu Tong.

"Brothers, the one who rides the red horse is a conspirator. Kill the one who rides the red horse and reward him with a thousand pieces of gold!"

"kill-!"

Liu Chong was shocked!

This army is not ordinary.

They are wearing iron armor and helmets, and the size of the spears in their hands is also unusual. It is about one foot long. A single spear head is more than one foot long. .

In terms of equipment alone, this army is even several times stronger than Liu Bian's personal guards.

Liu Chong was taken aback for a moment, then delighted, his eyes gleamed with greed.

This is where the assassination comes, it is clearly to send equipment.

As expected, the Kong Sect of Nanyang started their business by blacksmithing, and even a mediocre army can wear first-class equipment.

"kill-!"

Liu Chong gave an order.

Immediately.

Twist the bow and nock the arrow, and join the fight.
