Chapter 417 Elite
When he said this, Xiao Yuanming felt a little aggrieved deep in his heart. Their Lanling Xiao family is a thousand-year-old family in the south of the Yangtze River. Even ordinary clansmen can easily serve as county magistrates if they want to be officials...

If they were clansmen with outstanding abilities, it would be easy for them to serve as governor or general.

He Xiao Yuanming was like this, his own ability was not very strong, but with his status, he could become the chief general of the Northern Expedition of Nanliang, and he was also canonized as king.

However, one must be aware of the reality.

Now he and many members of the Xiao Clan in Nanliang live under the rule of King Huai and must obey the rules set by King Huai.

What opposes the imperial examination, requires the family to be judged by rank, and the nine ranks are upright.

To want to do this under Duke Huai is either stupid or bad.

But anyone who has read the history books will know that the Ninth Grade Zhongzheng System has not been buried in the grave, only those noble families of the prefectures still talk about the Ninth Grade Zhongzheng and the Upper Grade families from time to time.

Many vassal forces in the south of the Yangtze River, including the most stubborn Eastern Jin Dynasty, did not dare to engage in nine-rank Zhongzheng on the bright side.

Because they dare to do this, then they will not be able to recruit talents in the future.

As long as there are talents with some foresight and ambition, they will not defect to the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Over time, the many aristocratic families that control the power of the Eastern Jin Dynasty have become empty buildings and castles. They seem to be glamorous, but in fact they are basically empty.

With a light push, it can be destroyed.

Xiao Yuanming recognized the reality early on, and even took the initiative to ask Shen Yue to come over and ask about the rules of the imperial examination.

Shen Yue smiled and said: "You are straightforward, and this is not a secret that cannot be revealed. In a few days, the rules of the imperial examination will be passed down...Since you asked, I will briefly explain it!"

"Wang Guangyang, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and Han Xizai, who was transferred to the Ministry of Rites, are in charge of the imperial examinations. The rules they set are probably similar to the process of selecting scholars in the Ming Dynasty. They are divided into courtyard examinations, township examinations, and general examinations..."

"The content of the assessment is nothing more than the Four Books and Five Classics and policy questions, um, there are also arithmetic and miscellaneous studies!"

The Four Books and Five Classics, after the Qin and Han Dynasties, have become must-read classics for scholars.

Scholars of any age have studied these scriptures.

The assessment of scriptures is to assess the basic knowledge of scholars. If you can't even write some scriptures and meanings, you will naturally be dismissed.

Of course, if someone has a skill, he can still participate in the assessment of mathematics and miscellaneous science.

However, this aspect is regarded as a minority in the eyes of many scholars...

after all!All the scholars in the world of Shenzhou have the most practiced method, which is the Confucian method.The right way in the eyes of Confucian scholars is the Four Books and Five Classics.

Arithmetic and miscellaneous studies belong to the skills of the Mohists.

"Four Books and Five Classics, Mathematics and Miscellaneous Studies... It seems that while the king chose Confucianism, he did not give up other schools of thought!"

Xiao Yuanming sighed.

Knowing this from Shen Yue, even though he only knew it a few days in advance, it can also allow him to do a lot of things, such as letting those clansmen who are good at arithmetic and miscellaneous studies sharpen their guns in the past few days to test those who are regarded as biased by other scholars. door subjects.

For the Xiao family, it doesn't matter what they are doing, as long as they can pass the imperial examination and get the status of an official.

The more clansmen who became officials, the more secure they would be under the rule of Duke Huai.

"The world is in troubled times, and Confucianism alone cannot compete for hegemony..."

Shen Yue said casually.

At this time, there was a commotion from the street outside, and the noise became louder and louder.There are many words of "Jiaolong" and "warship" mixed in it.

"Did something big happen outside?"

Shen Yue and Xiao Yuanming became interested, stood up and walked to the window.

In the distance near the pier, there was a large crowd of black people. They all looked towards the river channel of the pier. On the river channel, the originally spacious waterway had been filled with warships.

"General Zhendong is back from suppressing the water thieves? Such a big commotion?"

Xiao Yuanming said with some surprise.

"It is indeed General Zhendong, but besides General Zhendong, there is also a big guy... It is really a dragon!"

Shen Yue's eyes were sharp, and from a long distance, through the sails of the warship, he saw the black flood dragon floating in the water, being dragged behind by more than a dozen warships with iron cables at the same time.

Although this flood dragon is dead, its body still exudes a strong dragon power.

The wounds on his body also shrank and stopped bleeding.

The warship returned from Hongze Lake, causing a sensation wherever it went.

After entering the river.

A large number of people flocked to the shore to watch the fun. The dragon being supported by the warship really shocked everyone, and many people burned incense and kowtowed directly on the shore.

Even if the black flood dragon died, it still couldn't stop them from worshiping the Dragon Lord.

"Sure enough...it's a flood dragon, so big!"

Soon, the warship arrived at the pier, and the black flood dragon's body of twenty or thirty feet appeared on the river bank, with a ferocious head, a body like a small hill, and that kind of momentum that was constantly exuding.

It made many spectators turn pale and dare not get too close.

And many scholars who are relatively close, the stronger their mental strength, the more they can feel the energy, blood, and essence contained in this dragon's body, almost forming a wolf smoke.

Jiaolong can hide underwater and fly into the sky.

Naturally possesses the ability to hide aura.

However, this ability naturally disappeared after the dragon was killed, so the breath of the dragon spread out unscrupulously.

Even on the way to drag the dragon's body.

There were also a few sixth-order strange beasts that sensed the breath of the dragon, and came to attack hundreds of miles away, trying to tear and devour the flesh and blood of the dragon. Of course, these strange beasts were all beheaded by Fu Youde.

The flesh and blood of Jiaolong was not scattered outside.

"This flood dragon has such a strong energy. If it is used to assist in cultivation, at least tens of thousands of people can reach the fourth level!"

Shen Yue's expression became serious.

Although he focuses on the cultivation of spiritual strength, he is no stranger to the way of military generals due to his family background. He knows that in the first three ranks of generals, the main thing to temper is the body's qi and blood.

As long as the physical qi and blood are strong enough, the bottleneck of condensing the stellar qi will plummet.

And the flesh and blood of this dragon is enough to make tens of thousands of people soar in strength, quickly reach the peak of the third level, and the chance of stepping into the fourth level will also increase by [-]%...

When he thought that if the Huai Army formed a [-]-strong army, each soldier would have at least a third-tier elite.

There was a shock in an instant.

If this is the case, then the strength of the Huai army can be doubled or even tripled in an instant!

Sometimes, the strength of an army depends on its numbers.An army of one million is indeed stronger than an army of 50.

But sometimes, it also depends on the quality.

A Tier 50 elite with a scale of [-] people charged forward, and an army of [-] or even a million could hardly resist...

This is the statement at this stage.

If the enemy army also has the same elite units, the strength of the third-tier elite will be slightly reduced.

but.

Used to deal with those forces that cannot form elite units, it can be called hanging and beating, and the autumn wind sweeps the fallen leaves!
