The Great Thief of the Three Kingdoms, save Mrs. Du at the beginning

Chapter 192: Building a College of Science and Technology in the Song Dynasty
"You...you actually killed Ma Liu?" Wang Xingju asked Xin Zan in shock.

"Haha, I just feel displeased when I see the golden dog's henchmen showing off their power. Why shouldn't my Han soldiers kill the golden dog?"

"Master Wang, you should have no way out now. If your people don't take action, the officials outside will not let your family go."

Xin Zan looked at Wang Xingju with a sneer and said.

After hearing Xin Zan's words, Wang Xingju couldn't help but his expression suddenly changed. Finally, he gritted his teeth and roared loudly:

"Listen to Xin Canjun, use the divine arm crossbow to kill the golden dog!"

After hearing this, all members of the royal family took a breath of cold air. Then they all raised their divine arm crossbows, climbed up the wall, and shot at the officials outside.

Twenty divine arm crossbows attack at the same time.

The screams immediately echoed throughout the area.

Amidst the screams, more than a dozen government officials were shot dead on the spot. More than 100 government officials dispersed in an instant and fled in various directions behind them.

Now that Ma Liu has been killed, the Wang family has no choice but to fight back.

Under Xin Zan's organization and arrangements, dozens of people from the Wang family, headed by their eldest son Wang Defa, immediately brought weapons and raised the banner of the Han Dynasty, while sending people to contact other families to gather together.

Soon, the number of rebels led by Xinzan increased to more than 1000 people.

Xin Zan led more than 1000 people, holding flags high and holding various weapons, to attack Jinan City in a mighty manner.

At this time, Jin Zhongqi, the prefect of Jinan City, had received the news and led thousands of people to climb the city wall and prepare to defend the city.

"Jurchen lackeys, surrender immediately, otherwise I will kill you without leaving a trace!"

Xin Zan rode a horse and stood outside Jinan City, shouting loudly to Jin Zhongqi, the prefect of the Jin Kingdom.

Of course the Jin Zhong Banner refused to surrender, but the soldiers in Jinan City lost their fighting spirit when they saw the Han Banner.

As the Han army became stronger and the Jin army became weaker, their control over the Han lands occupied by the Jin army became weaker and weaker.

After just one stick of incense, the soldiers in Jinan City killed the prefect Jin Zhongqi, opened the city gate and surrendered to Xin Zan and other rebels.

The uprisings of the Han people in various parts of the north, just like Jinan, began to become more and more intense under the guidance of the Han special forces, leaving the Jin army exhausted and exhausted!

……

In Tianfu.

Liu Yu was also not idle. After Liu Yu ascended the throne, he granted amnesty to the world and issued a notice to the Han people. Another thing he did was to recruit and recruit talented generals from all over the world.

Anyone who thinks they have the talent to manage the country and benefit the world, anyone who thinks they have superb martial arts skills and are good at leading troops can come to Yingtian City to seek refuge, and all of them will be given official titles.

This was Liu Yu's preparation to control the entire Song Dynasty after recruiting civil servants and generals from all over the world.

Not long after the recruitment order was issued like this,
Talented people from north and south of the Yangtze River responded one after another.

A large number of talents arrived like crucian carp crossing the river.

Guan Yu's main weapon test.

Xun You's main article test.

A young man named Yang Tiexin came and said that he had learned skills from Taoist Master Qingfeng of Longhu Mountain.

In the end, it was a hundred rounds of battle with Guan Yu with no outcome.

This incident directly alarmed Liu Yu.

Liu Yu took Jia Xu in disguise and met this man named Yang Tiexin.

As soon as they met, Liu Yu asked Yang Tiexin about his experience in Longhu Mountain.

Because, in Liu Yu's impression, there seems to be no one named Yang Tiexin in history.

Yang Tiexin is a supporting actor in Jin Yong's novel "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and is Yang Kang's biological father.

The great-grandson of Yang Zaixing, a famous anti-Jin general.

She lived in seclusion in Niujia Village with her sworn brother Guo Xiaotian. Later, she was framed by Wanyan Honglie, the sixth prince of the Jin Dynasty. Her family was ruined and she was living in the world. She changed her name to Mu Yi and adopted Mu Nianci as her adopted daughter.

However, now Yang Tiexin suddenly appeared, and he was still very skilled in martial arts, leaving Liu Yu confused.

Yang Tiexin is a heroic young man.

After some introduction, Liu Yu got to know Yang Tiexin better.

Although Yang Tiexin's surname is Yang, he has nothing to do with Yang Zaixing. He grew up with his master in Longhu Mountain and learned martial arts and strategy.

The emergence of the Han Dynasty, with a different look from Zhao Song, made his master think that Liu Yu was a wise king, and specially asked Yang Tiexin to come down to assist him.

Yang Tiexin also repeated what his master, Taoist Master Qingfeng, said to Liu Yuxian.

"Yang Tiexin, did your master really say that His Majesty has great talents and great strategies?" Liu Yu asked with a smile as he looked at Yang Tiexin in front of him.

"Of course! Defeating the Jurchen barbarians, such a great victory, doesn't it count as a heroic strategy?" Yang Tiexin said seriously.

Liu Yu smiled and nodded, and then said: "

"However, there are still many people in Jiangnan who oppose the Northern Expedition to the Jurchens. They feel that suing for peace and restoring the original territory is enough."

Yang Tiexin was very angry when he heard this!
"Since ancient times, the barbarians in the north cannot be trusted, so how can they seek peace? If you want peace, you must conquer the barbarians mentally and physically before they can be defeated once and for all!" Yang Tiexin said loudly.

When Liu Yu and Jia Xu heard this, they both showed expressions of appreciation.

"We Han people have fought against the Jurchens countless times, but only started to win this year. What if many officials say that the cost is huge and the gain is not worth the loss?"

"After all, Jiangnan has been peaceful and peaceful for many years, so many people are unwilling to bear the military expenses of the Northern Expedition?"

"You have to know that in a medium-sized Northern Expedition, the imperial court recruited more than 20 civilians and spent millions in money and food. This is not a small amount!"

"Hmph! A bunch of sour scholars only know what a waste of money and food is, but they can't see how excited the Han soldiers and people were after the Battle of Yangzhou? Our Chinese population is dozens of times that of the Jurchens, and our products are hundreds of times that of theirs. How can there be any reason to tolerate the enemy's continued existence!" Yang Tiexin said angrily.

"Moreover, the Jurchens lost tens of thousands of elite people in the Battle of Yangzhou. They will not be able to recover these lost populations for decades. We must strike while the iron is hot!"

Yang Tiexin's words immediately made Liu Yu feel more favorable towards him!
"I heard that there is drought and little rain in the north and other places this year. I guess the Jurchens will be more severely affected!" Yang Tiexin sighed, and then continued: "If my guess is correct, I am afraid that my Han family will have more difficulties in the north. ”

Yang Tiexin's words made Liu Yu and Jia Xu frown.

"Yang Tiexin, do you think the Jurchens will exploit and harm the people in the north?" Liu Yu asked with a suddenly ugly look on his face.

"If the Jurchens were short of food and finances, wouldn't it be normal for them to plunder the Han people in the north?" Yang Tiexin shook his head and said.

At this time, with this matter weighing on their minds, Liu Yu and Jia Xu completely lost interest. After chatting for a few words, Liu Yu left.

Liu Yu also realized that he seemed to have thought of things too simply before.

What he wanted was to use the rebel army to slowly consume the Jin army.

But if natural disasters continue in the north, the Han people in the north are likely to be plundered by the Jin army.

if so.

Then, it would be a waste to deliberately wait for the rebels to resist.

Liu Yu rushed back to the palace and immediately sent people to the north and other places to strengthen intelligence collection on the Jurchens.

After a brief conversation, Liu Yu had a good impression of Yang Tiexin.

A few days later, Yang Tiexin was appointed as an envoy by the imperial court and went to Huguang to receive the surrender of local Song Dynasty officials.

Although Liu Yu once again set his sights on Jin Guo, the recruitment hall was still in full swing.

When he saw the finalized list, Liu Yu was excited.

Li Xianzhong, courtesy name Junxi, was a native of Qingjian (now Qingjian, Shaanxi Province). He was highly skilled in martial arts and was good at commanding troops.

Yu Yunwen, courtesy name Binfu, was born in Renshou County, Longzhou (now Renshou County, Meishan City, Sichuan Province).After Yu Shinan, a famous official in the Tang Dynasty, he had outstanding literary talent and was proficient in governing the country and ensuring peace.

Wu Jie, courtesy name Jinqing, was born in Longgan County, Deshun Army (now Jingning County, Gansu Province). He knew the art of war and was good at riding and shooting.

Liu Qi, also known as Uncle Xin.A native of Deshun Army (now Jingning County, Gansu Province), he was brave, good at fighting, and skilled in bow and horse.

Han Shizhong, courtesy name Liangchen, was born in the Suide Army of Yan'an Prefecture (now Suide County, Yulin City, Shaanxi Province). Although he was a surrendered general of the Song Army, he was brave and good at fighting and had a strategic mind.

Yang Zaixing, whose ancestral home is Wugang (now Penxi, Xinning County), has superb martial arts skills and a courage that no man can match.Gao Chong, the queen of King Kaiping, has great martial arts skills and infinite strength, and is the top military general in the world.

……

Looking at the list finally selected by Guan Yu and Xun You, each familiar figure appeared on the page, and Liu Yu was excited.

Li Xianzhong was a famous general in the Southern Song Dynasty who fought against the Jin Dynasty.Historically, he had extraordinary courage and superb martial arts. He defeated the Xixia army and resisted the invasion of the Jin army several times.He repulsed Wanyan Liang's southern invasion and presided over the Longxing Northern Expedition.He was successively awarded the titles of Deputy Envoy of Guozhou Tuanlian, Deputy General Manager of Eastern Zhejiang, Weiwei Jiedu Envoy, General Zuojinwu Guard, and Taiwei.He was given the posthumous title of "Zhongxiang" and the posthumous title of King Shunhui.

Undoubtedly, Li Xianzhong's coming to join Liu Yu should give him another brave and strategic general.

Yu Yunwen, after the famous official Yu Shinan of the Tang Dynasty, was promoted to Jinshi in history.Lei Guanzhongshushe was born and went straight to the bachelor's college.Later, he served as a military officer and defeated the Jin Emperor Wanyan Liang who invaded the south in the Battle of Caishi. He trained new troops, promoted Sichuan and recovered several prefectures and counties in Shaanxi. He served successively as a counselor in political affairs and a Privy Council member, and as Sichuan's envoy and governor. Privy Council Affairs.After paying homage to the prime minister, he was awarded the title of Prime Minister Zuo and Privy Envoy, Te Jin, and soon returned to Sichuan. He was granted the title of Duke of Yong, and was given the title of Grand Master, with the posthumous title of "Zhongsu".

This is a talented Confucian general who can be both literary and military.

Wu Jie was also a famous general in the Southern Song Dynasty. Historically, he guarded Monk Yuan, Raofeng Pass, Xianren Pass and other places. He defeated the Jin army many times and finally preserved Shu.He was given the posthumous title "Wu'an" and was posthumously named King Fu.

Liu Qi and Han Shizhong were both famous generals in the Southern Song Dynasty. Han Shizhong in particular was ranked among the four famous generals in the Southern Song Dynasty. They were both brave and good at fighting and capable of commanding large armies.

In addition to the above series of famous generals and ministers, there are also two unparalleled generals who are also here to vote.

Yang Zaixing, an unparalleled fierce general, was a famous general in the Southern Song Dynasty who fought against the Jin Dynasty. He was originally a general under Cao Cheng, but later surrendered to Yue Fei and became a general under Yue Fei. He followed Yue Fei to fight against the Jin army. He once tried to charge into the battle alone to capture Jin Wushu, but he was still able to ride back alone after failure.

In the tenth year of Shaoxing (1140), Yang Zaixing met the Jin people at Xiaoshangqiao. Yang Zaixing was outnumbered, hit by numerous arrows, and eventually died fighting.

Gao Chong, highly skilled in martial arts, and extremely powerful, he is the most powerful general under Yue Fei.When he first appeared on the scene, he defeated Niu Gao, Zheng Huai, and Zhang Kui. Later, he defeated Jin Wushu in front of the battle. He was Yue Fei's first general. In the end, he was crushed to death by an iron pulley because his war horse power was exhausted.

It can be said that the arrival of Yang Zaixing and Gao Chong has increased Liu Yu's top combat power, and the mainstream generals of the Yue family army are basically full.

However, the only thing that makes Liu Yu feel pity is that most of these people are only in their teens and 20s, and their talents do not match their achievements in history.

If you want to grow to the top, you still have some work to do.

Ying days.

Although it is October, the weather in Yingtian, located in the south of the Yangtze River, is already relatively warm.

This year is another drought year in the north. In the autumn, there is basically not much harvest from the crops in the fields.

But facing the victims who are crying for food, there is nothing they can do.

As the Hongwu Emperor of the Han Dynasty, Liu Yu could not ignore it.

……

"Give way!"

Following a burst of shouting, a group of Yingtian Han soldiers escorted the dozen prisoners and walked through Yingtian Street.

The people along the way stepped out of the way, stood on both sides, and pointed at the prisoners.

"Look, they are big households that refuse to pay taxes!"

"I know the one in front is Xue Dahu from Longshan Town, and the one in the back is Rich Man Wang from Qipan Mountain... They are both bullies who bully men and dominate women, and take advantage of others' power!"

"What are they guilty of?"

"Didn't I say that I refuse to pay taxes? His Majesty hopes that they will help with disaster relief and make up for this year's taxes, but they won't pay taxes!"

In the midst of everyone's discussion, Yingtian Han escorted these prisoners to Caishikou.

As a big man who looked like a military judge read out some orders loudly, a few cold lights fell, and all the prisoners were beheaded.

Seeing these wealthy locals who were usually rich and unkind being beheaded, the onlookers all clapped and cheered.

When the crowd gradually dispersed, the Han soldiers who carried out the execution had calmly tidied up the execution ground.

The severed heads were all collected into bamboo baskets, the blood was absorbed with slaked lime, and handed over to the military judge for inspection.

"Tax evasion, bullying of men and women, all hang on the city wall for public display!"

Following the order, these wealthy people in Yingtian who refused to pay taxes would not be able to live in peace after death, and they were all hung on the city gates everywhere for public display.

Yingtian Mansion, inside the imperial palace.

"Your Majesty, yesterday we killed seven or eight large households who refused to pay taxes. Other large households came to our door early this morning, crying and shouting to donate food to us!" Jia Xu, the central governor, smiled and said to Liu Yu said.

Hearing this, Liu Yu snorted coldly and said: "It's true. I've said it a long time ago. It's useless to reason with these guys who don't know the current affairs and have no vision. You must use it." A knife will do.”

The local grain harvest in Yingtian was also poor this year. Liu Yu wanted to ask large households from various places to provide some grain as a supplement to this year's tax. After all, the grain he had in hand could not withstand the consumption of tens of thousands of disaster victims.

Unexpectedly, many wealthy local wealthy people have a character that wants money rather than their lives, and they all try their best to deny and do not want to pay these assessed taxes.

In order to achieve their goals, they even used bribery to win over Liu Yu's officials and generals.

In just half a month, several officials and generals became the backers of these big Yingtengu families.

How could Liu Yu spare them for poaching so blatantly?

After killing several groups of people in succession, he is now completely honest, and no matter what Liu Yu does, there will be no more problems.

"Your Majesty, with the grain donations from these wealthy merchants in Yingtian, we won't have to worry about a shortage of spring plowing next year. Moreover, the private salt business in Huaidong can also be exchanged for hundreds of thousands of stones of grain." Xun You smiled beside him. said.

Now the situation in Yingtian has improved. Although some people are dissatisfied internally, there is no trouble at all.

"I heard that Xin Zan led the Shandong Rebel Army and just conquered Yidu and Dongping. There is also a young general named Wang Defa who has made many military exploits?"

Liu Yu suddenly remembered and asked Jia Xu and Xun You next to him.

"Yes, the attack on Zhending should have begun now." Jia Xu said slowly.

Liu Yu nodded, and then continued: "Let's not mention this matter anymore. Let's discuss it again. I want to open an academy in Yingtian."

"Academy? Your Majesty, there is war and chaos everywhere now. Everyone is hiding at home. Even if an academy is opened in Yingtian, not many literati will come." Xun You frowned immediately when he heard that Liu Yu wanted to open an academy.

"Yes, it is very good that Your Majesty wants to promote culture and education, but now is the time of war. I think it is better to train more troops and stock up on food and grass." Jia Xu also said.

A few days ago, Liu Yu asked the two of them about establishing an academy.

Jia Xu and Xun You thought about it for a long time, and both felt that Liu Yu's idea was a bit unrealistic.

If you want to win over scholars, it is naturally very good.

Liu Yu started doing some things, but it was still a little too early. Apart from wasting food and money to raise a group of literati, there was no benefit.

After hearing what the two of them said, Liu Yu understood that they had misunderstood him.

"You two, the academy I want to establish is not a Confucian academy." Liu Yu said.

"what?"

"Your Majesty, if it's not the Confucian Academy, what kind of academy is it?"

Jia Xu and Xun You were even more confused.

Since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty deposed hundreds of schools of thought and only respected Confucianism, all academies in the world have taught Confucianism.

Even if the branches of Confucianism are different, there have never been other academies.

"I want to build an academy to educate the people and train them into various specialized talents, including farming, iron smelting, construction, arithmetic, etc., instead of teaching the Four Books and Five Classics." Liu Yu said lightly.

"What, this, this kind of thing, where can anyone teach it?" Xun You suddenly exclaimed.

Liu Yu said that in the eyes of Confucian scholars, these things are all inferior skills and tricks, and they are not even considered tricks, because low-level jobs such as farming and blacksmithing have nothing to do with academies. It doesn't matter.

just.

This is another layout of Liu Yu.

This is the Southern Song Dynasty. Regarding arithmetic and other technological things, the progress has been great compared to the Han Dynasty.

If a college of science and technology in the Song Dynasty could be built, it would surely promote the progress of the entire Song Dynasty.

The built strong ships, cannons, train tracks, and other things will allow the glory of the Han Dynasty to radiate to the entire earth faster.

In one fell swoop, Han became a super empire.
