Chapter 1311
Historically, when Jiang Wan was young, he was famous and hired by Liu Bei.After Liu Bei entered Shu, he was appointed as Guangdu Ling.But Jiang Wan can really do it - when Liu Bei was inspecting Guangdu, he ignored official business and was too drunk to wake up.This time I almost moved my head. Thanks to Zhuge Liang interceding for him, he argued that "great sages are often tired of small things" so that Liu Bei did not punish him.

But after this fight, it was never heard that Jiang Wan was drunk.The great people who can leave their names in history are all strong-willed people, and Jiang Wan will naturally not stumble over the same stone twice.Later, relying on his own ability, Jiang Wan was gradually promoted, and by the time Zhuge Liang left Qishan, he had already joined the army.

It's a pity that "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" transplanted his story to Pang Tong.He also vividly told how Zhang Fei went to visit Pang Tong. At that time, Pang Tong, who thought Liu Bei was overqualified and was only appointed as Leiyang order, got drunk and made mistakes, which made Zhang Fei want to beat him up.However, Pang Tong actually dealt with all the government affairs accumulated in a county for three months in half a day, which aroused Zhang Fei's shock and strongly recommended Pang Tong.After so many embeddings, Jiang Wan's image became even weaker.

But regarding this wrong case in history, Ma Chao looked at Pang Tong and Jiang Wan, just smiled and said nothing, really didn't know what to say.

No.2 Tanhualang is none other than Fei Yi from Jiangxiafeng County, Jingzhou.Fei Yi is different from Jiang Wan. Although they are about the same age, both in their twenties, compared with the calm Jiang Wan, Fei Yi has a more indisputable demeanor.Ma Chao knew that this person had the best political strategy, so he asked some more questions about the Ma family's recuperation. Fei Yi obviously came prepared and talked endlessly.However, it seems that due to the arrogance of scholars, Fei Yi still has some concerns about the business career.

"Why, you look down on businessmen?" Ma Chao asked after keenly grasping this point.

"A little bit." Fei Yi answered truthfully.

Ma Chao smiled: "Don't look down on merchants. The country emphasized agriculture and suppressed merchants for more than two hundred years. Emperor Xiaowu (Han Wudi) arrested merchants as death squads when he saw them. The smartest group of people, they know where the benefits are, for the benefits, they can take the risk of beheading, for the benefits, they can cross the desert of death, for the benefits, they can go to the cannibal tribe to find treasures .For profit, they can burst out the most powerful energy and do things that ordinary people can't do."

Speaking of this, seeing Fei Yi's expression of disbelief, Ma Chao immediately cited an example: "You know, when I conquered Yuan Shao, if Li Zihao from Jinyang didn't give his family to help, the 40 troops might not have arrived in Youzhou. It would fall apart; without the help of the Zhen family in Wei County, it would be impossible for the Cao family to give up the four counties of Jizhou in the future; I simply can't afford to raise military resources and supplies; without the Ma family's businesses all over the world, and relying solely on agriculture as the foundation, the Ma family's treasury may not be full after five years..."

Fei Yi was slightly moved when he heard this, but from his eyes, Ma Chao read that what he trusted was his own words, not the economic power of business.He sighed silently in his heart. Ma Chao knew that people like Fei Yi would not be able to change his mind unless seeing is believing.

This is a common problem of great people, they always insist on themselves.However, once this kind of person finds that he is wrong, he will try his best to act and make up for it.At this time, you can just open a window for Fei Yi. After the sunlight outside the window shines on the whole room, Fei Yi will take the initiative to switch over.

No.3 No. [-], also from Jingzhou, he is Dong Yun from Zhijiang, Nanjun, the son of Dong He, a general under Liu Biao's account.Dong Yun is completely different from Jiang Wan and Fei Yi. He has more of an air of being upright and righteous.It always made Ma Chao see some upright and unrepentant Chen Qun from this young man.

Dong Yun, who was born in a family of officials, had a bit of a reputation for his ability under the influence of his father Dong He.Ma Chao simply asked a few words, and he had a decision in his mind. He planned to arrange for him to practice in the Dao and Punishment Department first, and then reuse him after his qualifications and abilities improved.

And it wasn't until after finishing the No. [-], Tanhua, and No. [-] spots that Ma Chao suddenly discovered that in the future, almost all the elites of the Four Elites of Shu would belong to him. Except for Zhuge Liang who followed Liu Bei to Xichuan, he had already won three of the four prime ministers. , and if you count Zhuge Liang's personal disciple Jiang Wei in history, all four of them can play a table of mahjong.

In addition to these top three, Guo Youzhi, who wrote about Xianbei affairs, ranked fourth, Yang Yi, who wrote about military strategy and logistics reforms, and could not get along with President Wei Yan in history, ranked fifth, and Jiang Wan's cousin Liu Min ranked sixth... Pang Tong His cousin Pang Shanmin ranked ninth, which should be a blow to him. When it comes to talent, Pang Shanmin's erudition is like that of his father Pang Degong. Unfortunately, although his knowledge foundation is solid, he is not very proficient in practical strategies and theories. Compared with Pang Tong, there are too few ways of relying on yin and yang, so naturally Ma Chao doesn't see it.

On the whole, the majority of the candidates for this time were still the children of various gentry clans. The thirty students in the palace examination were all taken over by students from Chang'an Taixue and Yingchuan College.After all, their family has the conditions, books, and teachers, while the rest of the farmers, workers, and merchants do not have these convenient conditions.However, there are at least a dozen non-gentry students among the hundred Jinshi. This is a welcome change for the Ma family's imperial examinations.

Of course, in Ma Chao's impression, there are still a group of talented people in Jingzhou who did not appear in the imperial examination.For example, Ma Liang, who is "Ma's five permanent members, with white eyebrows the best", has excellent diplomatic skills. Historically, during Liu Bei's Eastern Expedition, he recruited Wuxi barbarians, all of whom obeyed the Shu Han, and later went to Wu State many times.

There is also Liu Ba, the first economist in the Three Kingdoms period, who was also from Lingling, Jingzhou.This person is very talented in business, and his ability to master the overall situation is almost as good as Cao Cao's Xun Yu... Ma Chao didn't talk too much nonsense about such characters, and directly issued a conquest order to force these people into Chang'an.If you don't follow suit, hey, Ma Chao doesn't need to do anything. Sima Yi, who is growing his hair at leisure in Chang'an, will use countless methods to let them know how serious the consequences will be if he makes Ma Chao angry.

However, compared to the bountiful harvest of liberal arts, this martial arts exercise is a bit tasteless.There are two reasons for this. One is that the famous generals in the late Three Kingdoms period were almost all controlled by the martial arts family. It is also relatively good, and the sons of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are also considered up-to-date.As for the rest, most of them are reckless and tough guys. In Ma Chao's view, they always feel that it is tasteless to eat and it is a pity to discard them.

After all, with Ma Chao's strong crossing, the battle mode of this period has already been somewhat different from history.Just talking about the invention of Takahashi saddle and double-sided stirrups, and the birth of the Sutie weapon, the combat effectiveness of ordinary knights has been increased by more than [-]%.When the following military branches and various battle formations are brought to the extreme, fighting has become an art.Personal bravery is no longer an important factor.

At the end of the Han Dynasty and the beginning of the Han Dynasty, the combat effectiveness of the army was not very strong. For example, during the Yellow Turban Uprising, it was just a group of peasants charging with rakes and clamoring.Under such circumstances, all kinds of masters who break through the camp with one enemy and one hundred can easily appear everywhere, but now, if a person wants to do this kind of thing, he is looking for death, facing a well-trained army.Relying on individual strength, without the cooperation of the whole army, it will not work at all.Even if it is Lu Bu, if he meets Xu Huang's heavy armored cavalry, even if there are only 500 of them, let alone break through the siege, even if he can last for an hour or two, it is already considered amazing.

This is also the second reason why Ma Chao feels sorry for those martial arts warriors who are proficient in archery, riding and shooting, but lack military training.

However, Ma Chao still picked some generals with good qualifications among the cripples.For example, Wu Qiuxing, who came from a family of martial arts in Wuwei, although his martial arts are not top-notch, he has his own understanding of the art of war and strategy; and Hu Zun, who is also a good guy from Liangzhou.The last one was Xiang Chong, who Zhuge Liang praised as Xiao Chang's military, and was acquired by Ma Chao because his ancestral home was in Xiangyang. What's ridiculous is that this guy actually participated in the liberal arts...

Of course, there is also Wang Shuang of Liangzhou, who was a famous general in the later period of Cao Wei. He was extremely eye-catching in the later period of the Three Kingdoms.In the later period of the Three Kingdoms period, besides Wen Yuan, he was one of the rare ones who could shake the enemy army by one person.

But Wen Yuan... His father, Wen Qin, was only four years old at this time, and Ma Chao was speechless.

And some real famous generals in the later stage, such as Lu Xun, who is already 15 years old, has been locked up by Sun Ce and his relatives; Deng Ai, who just came out of the womb; Wang Jun is not even a fertilized egg at this time; as for Lu Xun's son Lu Kang, Yang Hu who established a revolutionary friendship with Lu Kang, and Yang Hu's successor Du Yu, that is even far away...

Faced with such a situation, Ma Chao gritted his teeth, and made his decision: since he couldn't find it, he should be trained in the military academy!Huang Zhong's son Huang Xu, Zhang Liao's son Zhang Hu, Pang De's son Pang Hui, etc., just didn't have the luck of their parents, and they didn't have the chance to ride into the camp.The real military ability is really not necessarily so bad!
