7.31 Confucian tacit understanding and Bingzhou development

Bingzhou's administrative office is Jinyang, the governor's office, and the backyard of Deng's family.

"Yan'er, you are only 15 years old?" Deng Feng gently held the beauty in his arms, but his tone was obviously unbelievable.

Because according to Cai Yan's ability to deal with people, no matter what happens in future generations, he will have to be after the age of thirty; even if precociousness was common in ancient times, it is not such an exaggeration, right?
"Young Master, please forgive me, Yan'er forgot to give Sister Long her birth date and birth date." Cai Yan said apologetically, "Besides, Yan'er is just a concubine, and there is no need to tell Young Master this."

"Wait a minute, let me figure it out." Deng Feng patted his forehead with a headache, "According to the law, those under the age of 14 are not discussed, and all are treated according to the three-year starting point and the maximum death penalty. It seems that 15-year-olds are not so exaggerated. .”

"Sir, what are you talking about?" Cai Yan asked in confusion.

"Sister Yan'er, don't think too much. According to medical research, if a couple wants to consummate their marriage, it is best for both the man and woman to be above, called 'adults'. If it is done too early, it will cause harm to the body.

Especially for women, if they become pregnant, there is a high chance of dystocia or even death if the mother is too young. "As a medical master, Cheng Lingsu kindly explained to Cai Yan.

What's more, Xiao Longnu is in seclusion most of the time now, and she has the highest status among the people present in the Deng family's backyard.

"Is that really the case?" Cai Yan asked with a blushing face.

"Okay, sister Yan'er, we are all like this." Xiao Zhao smiled and held Cai Yan, who was only a little over 150 in height, in his arms and bullied him for a while. He also deliberately gave Deng Feng a few restricted-level demonstrations, which made him angry. a bit big.

"But, you seem to..." Cai Yan didn't quite understand.

"You're very young, right? When it comes to age, we can't even tell ourselves. When I came out of this world, I was the youngest one, but I was still over 60."

Having said this, Xiao Zhao glanced at Deng Feng affectionately. If it weren't for his own son, he would probably have died in Persia in despair at this age.

"How - is it possible?" Cai Yan was completely dumbfounded.

"It's okay. It's okay if you enter the practice. Practice this set of exercises first. I see that you have already shown traces of martial arts practice. Now turn to the "Shangqing Dao Sutra", which is the best one I have at the moment. This is it."

Deng Feng shook his head to drive away some unrealistic thoughts, "If you don't understand anything, you can ask anyone else in our family except the little fox, but don't practice it yourself, otherwise the price may be very high. "

"It looks very simple, doesn't it?" Cai Yan read the secret book at a glance. With her literary quality and knowledge, it is really not a big deal to understand an entry-level cultivation technique.

She also practiced exercises in the past, but it was not so much worse than this one, so that the brightness of her eyes was a little breathtaking after watching it, "Yan'er, thank you son!"

After some exchanges, everyone in the backyard dispersed to find their own things. Cheng Lingsu continued to deal with various military matters, Xiao Zhao went to Xiao Longnu for discussion, and the little fox hid in the "Tiangang Escape Formation" for daily practice.

As for Cai Yan, considering her famous literary talent in real history, Deng Feng naturally handed over his official documents, materials, memorials and other literary work to her.

In fact, she held positions such as office director and confidential secretary, which finally allowed Guo Jia, the main military advisor and half-assed secretary, to be relieved.

"Senior Brother Guo? The young master thinks he is a dabbler, uh - secretary, right?" Cai Yan was obviously not used to the title Deng Feng gave her.

"Why, you know Feng Xiao?" Deng Feng was a little surprised.

"Of course, my father once lectured at Yingchuan Academy, and Senior Brother Guo is his personally acknowledged disciple. It's just a pity that he came from a poor family and was too lazy. He just couldn't let go of his arrogance. Otherwise, he would have already become famous." Regarding this point. Cai Yan was very sure.

"No wonder he told me that he had a junior sister when he asked me to go to the capital." Deng Feng remembered another thing, "In other words, this lazy guy didn't do it well on purpose?"

"Yes and no." Cai Yan burst out laughing, "He has a very serious problem of 'taking care of food' when working. Unless it is something very important, he can always get by. If he feels that it is okay, , it definitely won’t take a little more effort.”

"Okay." Deng Feng was very helpless about this, but fortunately, at least Guo Jia's performance in the position of military advisor was impeccable.

A few days later, in the lobby of Bingzhou Governor's Mansion.

"The emperor is destined to carry the emperor, and the edict is here!" A new imperial edict came. Deng Feng was a little surprised and led the girls to complete the edict. When the eunuch in charge of delivering the edict finished reading, Deng Feng was still in a daze. .

It was Cheng Lingsu who reacted first and hurriedly arranged for someone to prepare a red envelope for the eunuch before sending him away.

"So, we are all generals?" Xiao Zhao played with the imperial edict in his hand with a strange expression, feeling that it felt pretty good.

"Then do I want to see Her Royal Highness the Princess?" The little fox got into Xiao Longnu's arms blankly, thought for a while and then raised his head and asked.

"Sir, it seems that His Majesty is very satisfied with your performance in the aristocratic family." Fortunately, not everyone in the Deng family's backyard was at a loss, at least Cheng Lingsu grasped the key.

"Forget it, he is dying anyway, so we just need to be patient." Deng Feng didn't care at all.

"How could the young master say such a thing!" Cai Yan was the only one left in the entire Deng family who was so sensitive to this matter.

"Yan'er, be good, I'm not telling lies. Considering His Majesty's physical condition and the various rumors you should have heard, it would be amazing if he could live a long life." Deng Feng has not yet thought of rebelling. So I explained it somewhat.

"How can I be a minister with such rebellious words!" Cai Yan still refused to give up.

"Okay sister Yan'er!" Xiao Zhao smiled and hugged her over for a long kiss. Now this girl finally found someone to bully besides the little fox.

"Sister Han, how could you?" No matter what Cai Yan felt in her heart, she was actually just a 15-year-old girl. How could she stand such an exciting game? All the words she just said were lost in an instant.

"By the way, Long'er, I remember that the gift included a set of princess makeup, right? How about we wear this tonight?" Deng Feng suddenly thought of an interesting game.

The girls did not expect that Deng Feng would bring the topic to vehicle driving in a blink of an eye. They ordered him to spit, then turned around and went about their business.

As for the imperial edict, it was the same as the previous ones. The little fox used it as a toy for the two little babies. In her words, it was to let the children get royal aura.

After that, various affairs in Bingzhou began to develop in an orderly and stable manner. Since there was nothing major, Deng Feng even had time to take the girls to visit various scenic spots from time to time.

What surprised Deng Feng was that the news that Cai Yan became the director of the Bingzhou Governor's Office in Bingzhou somehow spread, but it did not cause any unnecessary rumors. Instead, it caused a sensation, especially among the Confucian scholars. Most of them are likes.

Not only that, as this reputation spread, many Confucian scholars came to Bingzhou to seek refuge, which greatly alleviated the problem of insufficient civil servants in various counties in a short period of time.

Deng Feng's approach was to interview every defector one by one, but only accept those who were capable, and drive away all those rotten scholars who talked about "the words of saints". Even so, it was also spread that he was "thirsty for talents and meritocratic." It is the name of "lift".

This makes Deng Feng very baffled, because his reputation all over the world has always been for being extravagant, and there are even a lot of restricted jokes such as "Deng Feng and his female guard camp have twenty or thirty affairs".In any case, it is a good thing that his reputation has improved. Although Deng Feng really doesn't care about this, he has no interest in being wronged.

To this end, he also specifically asked more than a dozen of the most outstanding Confucian scholars why he let Cai Yan, a woman, become the office director. They agreed. The answers of these people were different, but generally speaking, the core meaning was the same. As long as you If we are willing to use Confucian disciples, we all agree.

This made Deng Feng have the urge to kill people - only then did he remember that there was no good way to become an official in Confucianism in this era, and most of the resources were controlled by aristocratic families and nobles.

In such a clear and coherent development, nearly a year passed in a blink of an eye, and the time entered April of the sixth year of Zhongping.

The first development was naturally the military aspect.

Today's Bingzhou Army can no longer increase the number of troops, especially the cavalry units. Now they have been completely replenished, and all 36000 elite cavalry have been fully trained. They are worthy of being number one in terms of combat effectiveness and numbers.

Furthermore, Emperor Han Ling would still be in trouble no matter how easy-talking he was, so he had to resort to alternative methods.

First of all, the infantry increased by 2000. It was nominally to supplement the battle losses. In fact, it was increased secretly after falsely reporting the losses. Just in case, they did not even dare to increase the establishment. Instead, they dispersed the number of people into the original establishment. Increased infantry to 12000.

Followed by 15000 crossbowmen, all of which have been converted into horse-mounted crossbowmen. The original short-ringed sword for self-defense with a length of 70 cm has been eliminated and replaced by the real-life Type 65 cavalry sword.

Moreover, the back of the sword was specially thickened, and each one weighed about 5 kilograms. The cavalry tactics subjects were specially added to the training. They were also light cavalry when necessary, and the original 200 crossbowmen in the county soldiers were also trained according to this standard.

The third is the female guard camp, which has been officially expanded to 2000 and is divided into two departments. Ma Yunlu, who also received the title of Zhonglang General, is in charge of it. Xiao Zhao, who has been promoted to Zhonglang General, has been officially revoked. The nominal leadership position was restored, and the full-time maid was restored.

The fourth is the martial arts hall, which has recruited a new batch of 500 young trainees. The original 500 veteran trainees are basically about to graduate. If the army needs to expand within two years, they will be the most suitable candidates for grassroots officers.

Wang Yue was officially appointed as the actual person in charge, and the nominal director was Deng Feng, which means that in theory all the students who graduate from the Jiangwu Hall will be his students - not to mention "Principal Jiang thinks they are very good".

Fifth, there are now 800 medical soldiers, and the person in charge is undoubtedly Cheng Lingsu. However, only 500 of them are actually serving in the army, and the rest are in the newly built Shennong Hospital in each county.

The sixth is the engineering corps, which has now officially entered the line of new trebuchets. Fortunately, it is lighter in weight, more powerful, and has a longer range after optimizing the design many times.

Moreover, professional ammunition such as kerosene bombs, fire charge bombs, and smoke bombs have been developed, because siege warfare will officially begin in a few years, and professional training is required at this time.

Finally, 1000 cavalry and 2000 infantry were added in the name of heavy baggage troops. Externally, they were said to be civilian men under unified management. They served the people in peacetime and were responsible for supply transportation during wartime.

In total, the Bingzhou Army's main combat arms alone have reached 66000 people, not counting the engineering troops and female guard battalions, nor the county soldiers in each county.This fighting power is absolutely unparalleled in the world, without any moisture.

The second is people's livelihood.

First of all, in terms of agricultural land, due to Deng Feng's repeated clearing, the aristocratic families in Bingzhou are now left with only some frightened little miscellaneous fish. It is naturally impossible for those cleared aristocratic families to take away the land and properties.

Deng Feng confiscated everything in the name of the imperial court, and then recruited refugees to settle the land. However, this was not a "land to the tiller" system, but a professional farm system.

That is to say, retired and disabled veterans are responsible for establishing farms according to the standard of about 1000 acres, recruiting farmers who have lost their land for various reasons to cultivate, and obtaining income according to the "half-and-half" principle.

That is to say, farmers receive half of the entire harvest unconditionally, and all of this income is distributed to farm residents according to certain standards rather than evenly distributed, and the remainder, after deducting daily expenses, is collected by the state.

Nowadays, wars are raging all over the world, and there are countless refugees everywhere. On the contrary, Bingzhou is in good condition because of Deng Feng, so it has received a large number of people. Now Bingzhou has become a prosperous place recognized by the world.

Secondly, the policy of "Build roads first if you want to get rich" has been implemented for a long time and has been vigorously implemented. Now Bingzhou's convenient transportation has become famous all over the world, which in turn has driven the large-scale development of commerce.

Nowadays, Bingzhou's normal commercial tax revenue has significantly exceeded agricultural taxes. This is despite Deng Feng's large number of government-run farms.

Not to mention Bingzhou's monopoly on the grassland smuggling trade. Although Deng Feng repeatedly "cleaned" the surrounding grasslands, Bingzhou had no enemies for nearly a thousand miles to the west and north, but the farther targets also needed food, right?On the contrary, because of the strong position of the Bingzhou Army, the income has become more stable.

The third is industrial development.Today's Bingzhou industry has long been famous all over the world. Of course, it is no longer limited to the Shangdang area, but covers the whole state. The industrially produced ironware, porcelain, woolen textiles, linen textiles, leather and even the "travel artifact" glass are sold all over the world.

The Bingzhou caravan was a welcome presence in all parts of the country, especially the wool spinning industry, which spun the previously unused wool on the grassland into coarse woolen wool.

Coupled with a layer of silk or fine linen lining - there was no cotton during the Three Kingdoms period - it was the lowest-cost winter clothing in the world. It was also the standard winter attire for ordinary soldiers in the Bingzhou Army. Officers would definitely wear furs.

The only problem is that the Three Kingdoms period was too early and overseas trade was very limited, otherwise you could have made more.

The above is only for private industry, military production is more prominent, mainly because a standardized and large-volume system has been established. Today's Shangdang Arsenal is no longer the large handicraft workshop it was at the beginning.

Take the production of crossbow arms for strong crossbows as an example. Basically, the high-quality steel that has already met the standard is cast into shape, and then processed repeatedly with a hydraulic press or ram. The master only needs to observe the standard heat.

All weapons are of the same model and have the same parts. All factory products are numbered according to the name of the master, and any problems can be directly traced to the person.

Because the production capacity is too large, the current Bingzhou Army crossbowmen have eliminated the waist-tension crossbows and replaced them with new powerful crossbows with winch-assisted arrow loading. They can penetrate double-layer leather armor within 150 steps, and 100 internal Ignoring most infantry armor, the rate of fire is slightly increased!

The fourth thing is a matter that is neither big nor small, that is, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty officially changed the "prefecture governor" to "prefecture shepherd" in the fifth year of Zhongping, and at the same time decentralized some of the functions including recruiting soldiers and collecting taxes. A lot of power within.

In today's world, all states have basically ignored the imperial court in the capital, including Yizhou Mu, who proposed the establishment of a state pastor, and Liu Yan, the former chief of the Liu family of the royal family.

Deng Feng has been regarded as a model of loyal ministers. At least he still pays taxes on time and in full, and the deployment of more than a thousand troops will definitely be reported to the court for approval.

Finally, in terms of education, "compulsory education" in this era is obviously nonsense. Deng Feng only built a school with a capacity of [-] students in each county, and mainly recruited students from nearby areas.

When they are 10 to 12 years old, most of the tuition fees are paid by the government, and even the food is taken care of. However, after graduation, they need to serve the government unconditionally.

The school system lasts for five years, and the key subjects taught include some of Confucian content, that is, "literature"; mathematics is based on the textbooks compiled by Deng Feng's family, which is generally better than the primary school level, but not enough for junior high school graduation. The content covers algebra and Some elementary geometry knowledge.

Ideology and moral character are mainly composed of short stories about loyalty, bravery, faith, love, etc. throughout history.

The martial arts is based on the introductory kung fu of the Huashan Sword School in the world of "Heroes", including "Huashan Heart Technique", "Huashan Jade Fist", "Huashan Sword Technique" plus "Huashan Light Body Lifting Technique". In five years, it can be close to second-rate.

Now, these schools have been established for almost two years, and two batches of students have been recruited. When the all-out unification war breaks out, they will be used as talent training bases.

Deng Feng is now waiting for an opportunity, that is, before long, Han Ling Emperor Liu Hong will officially come to the end of his life, and the Han Empire will also usher in the real end!
