Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 816: Choosing people in the article, the military situation is like fire!
Su Liao knew that most of his worries were unfounded. It was the overall situation, not personal emotions, that determined Shi Le's strategy. Otherwise, he would not have been able to gain the territory he has today.

However, until he left, Su Liao didn't quite understand why Chen Zhi was so obsessed with recruiting Zhang Bin, so much so that he felt a little worried in his heart. With Chen Zhi's attitude, if Zhang Bin was really persuaded Once he comes, he will be reused, and his status may be threatened.

It's just that these little thoughts cannot be revealed, so they can only follow the order and leave.

However, Chen Zhi had a clear understanding of this subordinate's thoughts.

"From the perspective of Su Liao and others, my actions are undoubtedly a bit too persistent, but he doesn't know Zhang Bin's status in the original history. It is really too much to let such a person fall into the hands of Shi Le. If the danger can be recruited, it will weaken the opponent and strengthen itself, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone. What's more, Zhang Bin is just the beginning. If the situation in the court continues to develop like this, the situation in the Central Plains will be in chaos. In this I must accumulate enough strength before things happen, otherwise it will be untenable.”

While thinking about it, Chen Zhi glanced out the window, seeing layers of clouds floating in the sky.

"The way of luck may sound vague, but in reality, it is the foundation of a person and the foundation of a force. A person's foundation depends on his own struggle, but he must also consider the history...the family's foundation, and the foundation of a force , in fact, it is talent. Gathering enough talents, twisting them into one, and uniting as one, this is great luck. Zhang Bin and Murong Han are just the beginning, but it also shows my attitude, which can be used as a banner to show to the world in the future. , Only in this way can talents be attracted to invest with confidence.”

Before this, many people had actually come to join him, but in terms of level and level, they could only be said to be unsatisfactory. This was also limited by Chen Zhi's current status, and he was unable to attract more talented people to join him.

Of course, his reputation among scholars and scholars is higher, but such a reputation will not bring him managerial talents. At the same time, his background and reputation as a scholar are not good for a poor family. It is not a suitable target to defect to, so in the past six months, many of the people who have traveled over mountains and rivers and braved hardships to come here are children of aristocratic families and celebrities who pursue spiritual realms. They do not come here to seek refuge, but talk about mysteries and Taoism before saying goodbye and leaving.

In contrast, most of the children from poor families who defected were Jiangdu King and Zu Ti. Even Shile and Xianbei tribes, and even the Xiongnu had many children from poor families who went there, but they chose not to come to Chen Zhi.

"Probably because people of today's noble families are more or less biased when it comes to selecting people for office. At the same time, this is also a secular agreement. If I hadn't been an official in this borderland, I'm afraid there would have been a lot of people as soon as I took office. With the help of connections, I have to find positions for my nephews and children. In this case, out of consideration of winning over and maintaining the alliance of the aristocratic families, I have to show something. This also occupies a part of the disadvantages of the poor family. Over time, the poor family will become The children naturally stayed away, and eventually they all changed jobs and became rebel professionals."

Thinking of this, he also thought that, not to mention other places, after he had stabilized the border and repelled several invasions, many of his relatives and friends had already taken action and sent people over to inquire. Looking at their posture, they were clearly waiting. As soon as the situation stabilized, he began to go through the back door and ask for the position of subordinate.

"This kind of thing must be stopped naturally. Those who want to come over, at most, arrange things for the Chen family, either to build a new countryside, or to contribute to the circulation of commodities. Those who have the ability can be assessed as appropriate. If you don't have the ability, you still want it. In terms of position, you can roll as far as you go. In addition, to recruit more talents, simply relying on a few thousand gold to buy horse bones can only cure the symptoms temporarily. If you want to cure the root cause, you need to have a long-term mechanism..."

With this in mind, he walked to the desk and took over the pile of articles that had just been delivered to him. Then he sat down and started reading. At the same time, he took out pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and made comments on it from time to time.

If it is the imperial examination of later generations, it is absolutely impossible to annotate and review the test papers at will. This marking work is also an important part of the imperial examination, and it is even more important than the candidates' on-the-spot answering.

It's just that in the current environment, let alone the improvement of the imperial examination, even the system itself is only a shadow.

Chen Zhi flipped through the pages very quickly, and his annotation speed was not slow either. As he read, his expression could not help but change, but most of the time he frowned.

After reading seven or eight articles in a row, Chen Zhi began to wonder if he was wasting his time.

To be fair, the articles written by the children of these aristocratic families are actually quite good in terms of wording and can be said to be meaningful, but most of the content gives Chen Zhi a sense of déjà vu. "Well, these people have read "The Theory of Six Kingdoms" very well, and they have actually copied it into these articles. I asked them, if they were generals, why would they do politics? These people are really knowledgeable and have a high vision. One is based on a high-level perspective and analyzes the situation in the entire Northland. However, most of these things are empty words. They raise problems without solving them. They only rely on the principles in scriptures and articles, but they do not make sense..."

Shaking his head, he wrote a note on another article to show that he was not satisfied with the answer. Then he turned to another article. After a few glances, he nodded and said, "This article is still the same." Something happened."

After thinking about it, he looked at the signature of the article and happened to see the word "Tang Zi".

"Tang Zi's article analyzes the situation of Daijun from the financial and economic aspects, and proposes that the commercial potential of Daijun has not been fully released yet. The reason is that it is suppressed by the surrounding situation. One day and Wang Jun's relationship If the relationship cannot be clear, there will be no real peace for a day. Most of the merchants are also waiting for the results, but he has also proposed a solution, which is still based on economy and finance, using money to support soldiers and horses, and even proposed using Daijun's special products to attack Youzhou's industrial system is quite forward-thinking. It can be seen that he has really put in a lot of effort to show off his talents. Maybe he has already predicted the topic in advance..."

Predicting questions before the exam is not a patent for future generations, it is almost instinctive.

"In general, the idea is very clear. He is indeed a talent. If nothing else, he will be the number one this time..." Chen Zhi's plan this time is to select ten people and give them rankings. No .1 Grant nine positions to a general, and give the rest to officials and subordinates if they can be used. Those who cannot be used will be raised for a few days to stabilize the family first, and it will not be too late to dismiss them after the battle with Wang Jun.

After finishing annotating Tang Zi's article, he picked up the next chapter and let out a light sigh.

"Liu Qing's article is also interesting. His father was the county magistrate, so he has been influenced by it. The article talks about political ideas and controlling people's power. Most of them focus on the population issue. He believes that controlling the population and expanding Only with the foundation can we gain a firm foothold. This is actually the basis for the future rise of the imperial examination. It is because after the imperial examination, people from poor families can also ascend to the palace. …”

With this in mind, he annotated the article, and just as he was about to continue reading, hurried footsteps suddenly sounded outside the door, and then Su Liao's anxious voice came: "My lord, there is something urgent." Pay it forward!"

Su Liao had just left not long ago, so he was so anxious to come back, so it must not be a trivial matter, so Chen Zhi brought someone in.

"My lord, I just received the news that the Xiongnu suddenly raised troops to attack the Tuoba tribe! At the same time, something happened in Youzhou to the east. The Yuwen tribe suddenly raised [-] troops and handed them over to Wang Jun to form an army!"

"Huh?" Chen Zhi frowned when he heard this, "I didn't expect things to happen so quickly, but there's no need to panic. I've already made arrangements in the north, and a military order was issued last night. And this is not a bad thing. It's like confirming something." It was a guess, but the situation became clear..."

Before anyone could speak, there was another hurried voice outside the door. This time it was Chen Duo who came. He saw a panic on his face and said to Chen Zhi: "My lord, it's not good. Madam suddenly has cramps in her abdomen." , fainted!"

"What?" Chen Zhi finally couldn't sit still anymore and walked out quickly. When he passed by Su Liao, he said to him again: "Follow me. I'll talk to you on the way!"

Su Liao hesitated for a moment, but still followed. He originally thought that the back house was where the female family members lived, and it was also where the mistress was. If something happened at this time, he shouldn't set foot there easily. However, the military situation was so strong that he couldn't afford to delay at all.
