Daming: Refining zombies at the beginning, Lao Zhu was shocked

Chapter 227 Chapter 227: The generals and nobles are eager to fight!

Huangwei College was originally a concept created by Zhu Yue. Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao just picked up a ready-made one and advanced this teaching method!

Therefore, Zhu Yue's attitude on matters concerning the Royal Guards College is definitely what Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao are most concerned about. They will express their absolute support for any opinions he has.

There is no way, who can make their vision and thinking always inferior to Lao Jiu?

Even they have all been to the modern society of later generations, but they know what it is but don’t know why!

Deeper ideologies cannot be fully understood and absorbed just by looking at them with your eyes!

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao are also very clear about their positioning. They are basically acting as Lao Jiu's tools!

How Ming Dynasty should develop now is basically carried out according to the big framework formulated by Lao Jiu. To put it bluntly, they are the executors of the plan, not the makers!

Fortunately, the one who formulated the plan was Lao Jiu. If it had been any other person, he would have been deposed by Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao!

After all, it is estimated that only Zhu Li can transform the emperor and the prince into migrant workers!

"Lao Jiu, how many students do you think is appropriate for the Imperial Guard Academy to enroll in its first year?"

Zhu Yuanzhang asked with a change of subject.

"The number of students does not need to be too large. We only accept 500 freshmen a year. After three years of study, you can graduate successfully if you pass the examination. In addition, those who are willing to continue to study in depth can also add three years of advanced classes!"

Zhu Li thought for a while and then expressed his thoughts.

Some contents of the nine-year compulsory education stage in later generations are simplified here. Many knowledge points in later generations do not actually need to be learned, because they were not used at all in the Ming Dynasty!

"When the first batch of students we train graduates successfully in the future, we can choose a group of them to stay and teach, and then open other colleges and universities throughout the Ming Dynasty. By then, the number will naturally increase!"

After the overall industrial level and educational level of Ming Dynasty improve in the future, in-depth reforms and changes can be carried out in a targeted manner!

As for their original vacancies, there are plenty of people willing to fill them!

"These five hundred people will learn a knowledge system that even ordinary people cannot teach!"

Including Kong Ne, the Duke of Yansheng, was also replaced by another disciple of the Kong family!

Even the Kong family is not monolithic, and there are many people who want to step on Kong Ne and get to the top!

It is not difficult to choose another Yanshenggong.

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but frowned when he heard this.

Therefore, the content of the nine-year compulsory education can basically be completed in three years!

……

In the past few days, those officials who opposed the imperial court's establishment of the Imperial Guard College, especially the so-called Yanshenggong Kongne, were all dismissed from their posts without exception, and went back to their hometowns to retire in despair!

The imperial court can continue to pay them salaries and send them to coffins, which can be regarded as giving them the last dignity!

After Zhu Yuanzhang listened to Zhu Yue's explanation, he knew that he couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry, so he finally nodded and agreed.

"We also have a limited number of teachers. One teacher is responsible for a class of about fifty students at most. No matter how many people there are, it will lower the quality of education!"

Zhu Yue shook his head and explained. It is said that it takes ten years for trees to grow and one hundred years for people to grow. You should not be anxious about education, otherwise it will be counterproductive!

"Okay, then I'll listen to you. For the time being, we will recruit 500 students every year, and we will slowly expand the scale in the future!"

And these students who graduated in three years are equivalent to junior high school graduates who have completed nine years of compulsory education in future generations!

As for the so-called three-year advanced class, it is more like the vocational and technical schools of later generations, which provide specialized training specifically for the specialties and talents of these graduates!

After all, what the Ming Dynasty urgently needs is more talents in basic industries. For example, some of the more high-tech and esoteric theoretical knowledge of later generations has no use in the current Ming Dynasty!

"A lot!"

After all, these students who graduated from the Royal Guard College will become the pillars of the imperial court in the future. Basically, as long as they can successfully graduate, they can work as an official and part-time official, and those who perform well can even become frontier officials!

Zhu Yue is right. For these talents, we must not focus only on quantity and ignore quality!

If the talents trained are not qualified, no matter how many they are, it will be of no use!

After handling these matters, Zhu Li took Fang Xiaoru directly back to Hanzhong Mansion.

Zhu Yue did not stay in Xi'an Mansion for too long, only a few days.

After all, five hundred people are really insignificant to the entire Ming Dynasty, and cultivating talents is also a long process. After a few years, these five hundred people will not be able to become talents!

Of course, the premise is that you must support the various reforms of the imperial court!

Moreover, the newly appointed Yan Shenggong will also be the mascot of the Royal Guard College, and he will have the title of honorary chief teacher there!

As for the first principal of Imperial Guard College, it was naturally Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang!

There are also two vice-principals, namely the Crown Prince Zhu Biao, and the King of Han Zhu Yue!

"Is five hundred people too few?"

The first day of July in the twenty-sixth year of Hongwu was the official opening day for the first batch of students at Imperial College.

Starting from this year, Imperial College will use the selection and assessment method in the first half of the year to select students, and then officially start school on the first day of July in the second half of the year!

Starting from the second year, the number of students recruited will become more stringent, mainly because of the stricter age restrictions!

The first year is still between the ages of eight and fourteen, and the second year is directly divided between the ages of eight and twelve!

In the third year, only those between eight and ten years old will be selected, and the age standard for selecting students will remain at this stage for a long time.

Because in the future, graduates from the three-year system will not actually play a big role. They will be more like a normal school. To put it bluntly, they will train more junior high school graduates to go to county schools in various parts of the Ming Dynasty. Be a teacher of lectures and lectures, and cultivate more scholars!

The imperial court will also focus on the students who can successfully graduate from the advanced class!

There will even be something more powerful than the advanced class in the future, and the academic years will also increase accordingly, which is equivalent to a university in future generations!

Of course, this is all future development plan!

As for the first official opening of the Imperial College, Zhu Li, the vice-principal, will naturally be present.

So at the end of June, he came to Xi'an Mansion again.

In the business building of Xi'an Mansion, a group of Huaixi nobles headed by Lan Yu were accompanying Zhu Li to change cups, with unbearable smiles on their faces!

Now, each of these nobles has become the first batch of martial arts instructors at the Imperial Guard Academy, allowing them to specifically help the Ming Dynasty train military generals and military-related talents!

In other words, from now on, the outstanding new generation generals and military talents of the Ming Dynasty will all be the disciples and grandsons of these nobles!

Although Zhu Yuanzhang had specially summoned them into the palace before and warned them repeatedly not to form cliques or even accept adopted children in the Imperial College, but even normal teaching could make them Establish a teacher-student relationship with these future military generals of the Ming Dynasty!

Just for this point alone, it is something that can make them shine!

After all, since ancient times, the saying that the world is full of peaches and plums has only been aimed at scholars and has almost nothing to do with warriors!

But now the existence of the Royal Guard Academy can also give these vulgar warriors the opportunity to spread their talents all over the world. The significance of this cannot be compared to how many adopted sons they have!

This is also the reason why everyone in Lan Yu is so happy. You must know that these nobles are basically in a state of idleness when they are not fighting. The messy things they do on weekdays are completely idle. Painful result!

Being able to serve as instructors at the Royal Guard Academy in their spare time is like giving new meaning to their lives, and they are naturally very happy!

At least the court still needs their efforts and they have something to do, and that's enough!

Once a person has a goal and gets busy, there won't be so many messy thoughts. It can also calm down the nobles who are always doing things on weekdays!

After all, if you do something wrong and get kicked out of the Royal Guard Academy directly, you will lose face in front of the old guys!

So there is no need for Zhu Yuanzhang to say anything. After these nobles get this opportunity, they will restrain themselves!

This can be considered an unexpected gain!

Zhu Yue can also clearly feel that the tempers of these nobles have been significantly restrained compared to before, and their attitude towards him has become more respectful! This is why he agreed to come to dinner with Lan Yu and the others.

As long as you are all obedient, those who should use it can still use it, right?

"Your Highness, there has been a lot of commotion on the grassland recently, isn't it?"

After drinking for three rounds, Lan Yu blushed and asked tentatively to Zhu Yue.

"What? What do Duke Liang think?"

"The imperial court has clearly promised the Oara and Tatar tribes that they will not send troops to interfere in disputes on the grasslands!"

Zhu Yue asked calmly.

"We are just thinking that if His Highness can join forces with the Zhungeer tribe, it will not be difficult to pacify the grassland in one fell swoop!"

"Have you never thought about wiping out both Oara and Tatar?"

Lan Yu didn't take the court's promise seriously at all. To put it bluntly, this kind of promise was limited to small fights!

Do the Oara and Tatars dare to join forces and try to destroy the Zhungeer tribe?

If nothing else, there is no way the King of Han would allow such a situation to happen!

Therefore, everyone who understands Zhu Yuanzhang’s previous commitment to Oara and Tatar actually understands it!

Upon hearing this, other Huaixi nobles also focused their attention on Zhu Li!

Indeed, with Zhu Yue's strength, if he unites with the Zhungeer tribe who are no longer weaker than the Oara and Tatars, they might be able to solve all the grassland problems in one fell swoop!

In addition, the Zhungeer tribe is still Zhu Yue's people, which means that the entire Mobei grassland will also be controlled by Zhu Yue, the king of Han Dynasty!

This is better than being controlled by the Oara and Tatars, right?

However, these Huaixi nobles never thought that the reason why they are not moving to Mobei now is simply because they want to hand Mobei over to Zhu Xifeng to fight!

Both Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Yue are just paving the way for Zhu Xifeng, the future king of the grassland!

Only by truly experiencing the war of grassland unification can Zhu Xifeng establish his prestige on the grassland!

This kind of prestige was something Zhu Xiafeng did not have when he directly took over the rule of the entire Mobei from Zhu Yue!

After all, this is the achievement of expanding territory!

"how?"

"Dong Guo Liang hasn't fought for too long and feels like his bones are itching?"

Zhu Yue stared at Lan Yu and asked with a half-smile.

He naturally understands the thoughts of Lan Yu and the nobles. The merits of the generals must have been established on the battlefield. Now that the grassland ministries are fighting fiercely, the Ming Dynasty has become more comfortable. Most of the generals have begun to idle, as if there is no It’s like a useful place!

Under such circumstances, it is impossible for them to say that they are not in a hurry!

Although Zhu Yuanzhang gave them the job of teaching at the Imperial Guard College, the attractiveness of this job is definitely not as good as being able to expand the territory for the Ming Dynasty!

If they could follow Han King Zhu Li and directly wipe out Mobei, this achievement would be enough to make them proud of their ancestors!

"We just want to tell His Highness that if there really is such a day in the future, please bring all of us guys with you so that we can all take advantage of it!"

Lan Yu's words obviously expressed the thoughts of most of the military commanders and nobles. Everyone was staring at Zhu Li eagerly, waiting for Zhu Li's statement.

"Don't worry, no matter whether Mobei fights or not, there will be times when you will be useful in the future!"

"It is not convenient for me to reveal some things now, but you don't have to be impatient. When the time comes, you will naturally have the opportunity to appear on the battlefield again!"

Zhu Li smiled and nodded.

Mobei must be left to Zhu Xifeng. If these Huaixi nobles want to miss him, Zhu Yue will not allow it!

But the Ming Dynasty's goal is not just Mobei. Whether it is attacking North Korea, Japan, Annan, Nanyang and other places, it is not too far away!

These nobles still have a chance to participate!

However, Zhu Yue will not talk about these things openly now.

Upon hearing this, Lan Yu and others immediately looked at each other, obviously a little surprised by Zhu Li's answer.

"how?"

"Aren't you happy?"

Seeing this, Zhu Li immediately raised his eyebrows and asked.

"Your Highness is joking!"

"We, Lan Yu, are putting these words here today. I don't know what other people think, but His Highness is really going to go to the battlefield one day. Please be sure to take us with him. We will be the vanguard for His Highness!"

When Lan Yu heard this, she immediately patted her chest and expressed her stance!

"And I!"

"Count me in……"

"..."

The other nobles also hurriedly started shouting, and they all seemed eager to go and charge for Zhu Yue right away!

"As long as you have this intention, I will definitely let you know when that day comes!"

Zhu Yue didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but she still gave these honorable men a glimmer of hope!

As a military general, it is indeed very frustrating to have no battles, and Zhu Li can understand it.

After a meal, the guests and hosts had a great time. After Zhu Yue finished, he went directly to the palace to find Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao!
