Sui and Tang Dynasties: My Wife is the Eldest Grandson Wugou

An uneducated person, even if he brings out a powerful army, it can only have his strong personal characteristics, and it is impossible to become what Ye Fan wants, a unified army with excellent military quality and style.

Almost all great generals in history are both civil and military, and there are very few who don't know a single character.

So there is nothing wrong with Ye Fan's operation.

Now it's not like it was when Ye Fan first transmigrated here a year ago. Now all resources are available, and the population is also exploding.

Now, according to the statistics of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the annual birth rate and survival rate of newborns in the national population are several times higher than last year!

How many times, what concept?

In the year when Ye Fan first transmigrated, less than [-]% of newborns were born, and even less than [-]% survived.

In other words, only 350 million babies were born in the country last year, and only a little over one million babies survived.

However, last year, more than five million people died in the Sui Dynasty!

Since Yang Guang took office, there have been several times more deaths than newborns in Da Sui every year, and the population has been decreasing year by year.

If it continues to develop like this, it will be no wonder that the entire country will not perish.

Now, however, that number has doubled.

There were more than eight million newborns in the last year alone who survived!

Eight million, almost all the able-bodied young couples in the country participated. As long as they were healthy young couples, they almost all made a small contribution to the small earthquakes in some areas.

Since there is no shortage of food, the number of deaths is also decreasing exponentially.

Now, there will be almost no situation where young people will starve to death, and there will be no situation where young people will be forced to die.

The previous death toll included a large number of young and middle-aged people, but now most of the death toll is only the elderly. If it is not for diseases and accidents, very few young people will die.

If this trend continues, in about ten to twenty years, the population of the Sui Dynasty should exceed [-] million.

So, now that there is no shortage of people, why do we need those illiterate illiterates to join the army in order to make up the head?

In the past, there was no way to ask them to join the army. There were not many soldiers in the world who could read and write. Only the children of princes and nobles and rich families could read and write.

It's different now, they have enough to eat and drink, and they have more time to study, if they are still illiterate in this situation, then Ye Fan can only extend his hands of rejection to them.

If there are still a large number of illiterates this year, it is actually not incomprehensible, but Ye Fan does not want to give the green light for their own laziness.

Smart people and hard-working people have already started to study this year. In one year, even if they can't learn to become a great writer, they only need to know a few words.

Therefore, Ye Fan's requirements this year are also very low. He doesn't need to have a lot of personal opinions on the art of war, let alone how outstanding such opinions are. As long as the literacy rate is above [-]%, he can pass everything.

Of course, the better the person, the higher the ranking.

The passing line is that the literacy rate is above [-]%.

Even a pig can meet this requirement if it takes a year or two to learn to hold a brush in its mouth.

Next year, Ye Fan plans to build many schools across the country.

Now only the rich and nobles go to elementary schools, so the development of this era is so slow. Talents always come from the bottom, and middle and high-level talents only occupy a small part.

If you want the society to develop rapidly and vigorously, running schools in the private sector is a must.

As the saying goes, brainstorming, if the people all over the country are educated, then it is not a problem at all to pick out some top talents from these tens of millions of people.

However, this is all for the future. For the time being, Ye Fan only recorded the matter of running the school in his itinerary, and did not plan to implement it immediately.

On the day of the martial arts written test, candidates flocked from all over the country to take the half-hour written test at [-] test centers in Luoyang.

There are an unusually large number of people participating in martial arts this year, but most of them are men, and there are so few women.

Ye Fan sat behind the scenes, seeing this situation, couldn't help but feel emotional.

For a while, there is still no way to change everyone's inherent impression. Even if some women want to participate, they will probably be afraid to come due to various social pressures.

Even, they obviously have the idea of ​​wanting to change their own destiny, but they still think it is wrong.

In their view, women should take care of their husbands and children, and take part in martial arts, which is simply against the law of nature!

Ye Fan took a general look and found that there were less than [-] female candidates participating in the martial arts test.

Among them, the leading ones are naturally the black and white sisters, and Xinyue'e who came out of the prison. Because Zhang Yuanyuan is a woman disguised as a man, she was assigned to the queue of male participants.

Apart from the black and white sisters and Xinyue'e, behind them are more than a dozen female heroes who came from all over the country after hearing the news, each of them is a heroine who has practiced martial arts since childhood.

Only these people dare to break the old routine and dare to change.

So among the dozen or so female test takers, each one is full of vigor and confidence.

"Master Li."

After observing for a while, Ye Fan looked at Li Yuantong who was sitting on the side: "If the dozen or so female candidates can pass the written test later on, then by default, let them all pass the martial arts, and directly pass the test in all links. All advanced. Of course, these are all secret operations, in fact, they still have to participate in the follow-up martial arts competition!"

"what?"

Li Yuantong was stunned for a moment: "But, His Royal Highness, if this is the case, once they lose in the follow-up competition, how can they be canonized? If they are forcibly canonized, other people will have opinions!"

"Send it directly to my army, and I can seal it alone. There is no need to go to the Golden Palace."

Ye Fan waved his hand: "When the time comes, you will do a good job here, as long as you cooperate with the files and so on."
