The Rise of the Song People of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 29 Opening Minzhi Jiangdong Academy
Wang Sheng, Qian Tong, Zou Ta, and Sun Jing died after a scuffle in Wang Sheng's mansion. Sun Ce was severely injured by Zou Ta. hands on.

More than thirty members of Wang Sheng's family were killed by the rebels, and the female family members were even more humiliated by the rebels. Only a six-year-old son escaped death after being hidden by a maid in a dry well.

In a scuffle, Qian Tong and Zou's troops deployed outside the city rushed into Ningdu City and fought with Wang Sheng's garrison. Purgatory.

As for Sun Ce's finding the six-year-old Wang Xiang (Wang Sheng's orphan), he won the allegiance of Wang Sheng's loyal bodyguard, but he only recruited less than 3000 people.

However, Qian Tong and Zou Ta's rebellious army divided into small groups and dispersed in a hurry. Some occupied the mountains as kings and fell grass as bandits, some directly took refuge in Shanyue, and some returned to Yudu County and Gan County.

While Sun Ce was recuperating and waiting for Zhou Yu's news, he sent someone to send Sun Jing's body back to Qu'a for burial. A pass.

After robbing Yudu County completely, many young people could only flee to Gan County. Zhang Jie led troops to Gan County, but was stubbornly resisted by the local villagers. Afraid of too much loss, Zhang Jie retreated to Huichang.

Although Sun Ce got the soldiers he wanted, he was recovering from his injuries and Zhou Yu was still planning Yuzhang City.

Lu Heng sent Lu Yi, Lu Ji, Gu Shao, his elder brother's son Lu Shang, Ling Cao's seven-year-old son Ling Tong, Lu Dai's son Lu Kai, Zhang Hong's two sons Zhang Xuan, Zhang Jing, Tai Shici's son, Tai Shixiang, and a group of orphans aged 12 to [-] under his rule gathered around him.

This group of kids are big like Tai Shixiang, Lu Yi thirteen, four, five years old, and the youngest are seven or eight years old. Historically, only Lu Yi and Ling Tong whose father died early in this group of kids were able to succeed. Its reputation in history is not obvious.

Based on Lu Heng's estimation, either he obtained his official position with his father Mengyin, or he gradually became a dude. For the sake of his later talents, he would not have to use Liao Hua as a forward like the Shu Han.

The cultivation of talents must start with babies. Among this group of brats, Lu Heng definitely values ​​Lu Yi and Ling Tong the most. The others have mediocre achievements in history or cannot be named at all. Only these two It can emerge in history.

When it comes to nurturing them, Lu Heng himself definitely doesn't know how. He has never had a wife in his entire life, and he still doesn't even have a heroine (readers, please don't break the bricks yet, according to the outline, he should appear soon, please take a guess) who), but Lu Heng agrees with one thing.

It is Xia Houyuan's training method in the history of the Three Kingdoms. Cao Cao's famous generals are like clouds, and there are more second-generation generals, but one thing is that almost the second-generation talents are not very successful.

Cao Zhen was neglected by Cao Cao himself. The famous Dianman, Xu Yi, Xia Houmao, Zhang Hu (the son of Zhang Liao), Le Wei, Cao Tai, Cao Fu, Guo Yi, Cheng Wu, etc., had almost no achievements. higher than that of the father.

The same is true for the Shu Kingdom, Liu Chan, Zhuge Zhan, Zhao Tong, Zhao Guang, Zhang Shao, Guan Tong, and Guan Yi (Guan Xing, Zhang Bao, and Guan Suo are not included. That is either a romance or a legend). But these two countries However, each of the heirs of one person is different, and the second generation has been cultivated very well.

That is Xia Houyuan of Wei State and Guan Yu of Shu State!
Xiahouyuan's sons are all talented, Xiahouheng, Xiahouba, Xiahouwei, Xiahouhui, Xiahou and each other are outstanding. It is a pity that the two most talented sons, Xiahoucheng and Xiahourong, died the first.

Xiahou said that he could shoot tigers at the age of 16, Xiahou Rong was young but talented, and at the age of seven he could write and read scriptures, with a photographic memory, Cao Pi was also amazed.

If these two people can grow up, they can add two more generals to the Wei State. Unfortunately, Xia Houcheng died inexplicably. When Xia Hourong was 13 years old, he was in Hanzhong with his father. Death.

Guan Yu's son Guan Ping followed Guan Yu, and was defeated and killed together with Guan Yu. There are also a father and son Yue Fei and Yue Yun, the winning official, who are so heroic in history. They are both outstanding talents with unparalleled loyalty.

This kind of talented second-generation officials and second-generation generals all have one characteristic, that is, they have gradually learned his father's style after being influenced by their father since they were young. Although there is a risk of dying in battle like Xia Hourong, it is better than mediocrity. many.

In fact, Lu Heng planned to do this because he was really afraid that Lu Xun would be abolished like Zhuge Ke and Zhuge Zhan in his own hands!
In history, Lu Xun lost his father in his early years. After Lu Kang's death, he took care of the Lu family and supported his younger brother. Although he had Gu Yong's help, he eventually became a pillar of the country.

Are you familiar with it? Yes, there is such a character in Shu, Zhuge Liang, but now that Lu Heng is born, Lu Xun has lost a lot of responsibility. Without this training, can he still become the great governor Lu Xun in history?

Lu Heng's expectations for this younger brother are higher than anyone else's. Yu Yunwen's strategy, the southern leader is the only one in Lu Heng's mind, Lu Xun, not Zhu Huan!
So for various purposes, Lu Heng is going to build an academy, and he will act as the dean to build his own talent pool!
It is not that there are no academies in this era, but they are monopolized by the gentry. The most famous ones in the north are the eight dragons of the Yanzhou Xun family, and the south are Sima Wei and Pang Degong of Lumen in Jingzhou.

So Lu Heng went to Kuaiji County in person again, and invited Sheng Xian, a great Confucianist and celebrity in the world. His lack of fame in history does not mean that he is not talented enough.

Sheng Xian was also a celebrity who was killed by Sun Ce. After Sun Ce ruled Jiangdong, he was quite afraid of local celebrities, and even killed Sheng Xian and Gao Dai!
Sheng Xian's talent, Kong Rong, a great scholar in the world, is quite respected, and he is also a good friend of Kong Rong. Sheng Xian is upright and arrogant, and has always been hated by Sun Ce.

In order to protect him, Kong Rong wrote a letter to Cao Cao one day, introducing Sheng Xiaozhang's situation and urging Cao Cao to recruit Sheng Xiaozhang.

Kong Rong wrote in the letter: "If you want to restore the Han Dynasty, you must first seek talents; if you want to get talents, you must respect talents." , It is also good for people, but is it enough for a sage?"

(Pearls and jade have no feet. The reason why they fall into the hands of people is because some people like them. What's more, sages have feet to walk?)

Kong Rong also emphasized in the letter: "As long as the talents are respected, the talents will come."

This is where the idiom "spread like wildfire" comes from, which shows the talent of Sheng Xian.

Lu Heng personally visited Sheng Xian and came out to serve as a consultant of this academy. At first Sheng Xian refused in every possible way, but he couldn't hold back Lu Heng's kind invitation. He also felt that it was just a professor to solve doubts, not an official with him. Lu Heng reluctantly invited this great talent .

Just when Sheng Xian agreed to be the consultant of Jiangdong Academy, the system simply reminded Lu Heng.

"Congratulations to the host for being trusted by Sheng Xian, a celebrity from the Three Kingdoms. The highest value in the five-dimensional single item is Charisma 91, which rewards 15 prestige points, and the current prestige point is 160 points."

Lu Heng also asked the system strangely: "Isn't this Sheng Xian not agreeing to become an official, but only serving as a consultant? How can there be reputation points to rely on?"

The system said to Lu Heng: "Although Sheng Xian did not agree to serve as an official, Jiangdong Academy is affiliated with the host, and it also directly provides talents for the host. It belongs to a special institution under the host, of course it is counted as taking refuge in the host!"

Lu Heng felt that what he said made sense, but he couldn't refute it.

Lu Heng also sent Jin Yiwei to search for Zheng Xuan and other great scholars across the sea to teach these boys. Lu Heng divided the college into several subjects, such as morality, economics, arithmetic, engineering, agriculture, military, education, medicine, and veterinary subjects.

Morality, in the later generations, is the ideological and moral class. In the Han Dynasty, filial piety was used to rule the country, but filial piety can override the law. Lu Heng wants to slowly reverse this thought from the next few generations. All students must study compulsively, and Lu Heng personally serves as the director. .

There is not much introduction to the compulsory subjects of classics and Confucianism in the Han Dynasty, and Sheng Xian is the director.

Counting, counting, good accountants in the Han Dynasty were all educated people, Lu Heng separated the counting separately to recruit counting talents, and prepared to serve as the counting director himself.

Worker, this worker is a craftsman. As Lu Heng and Yu Yunwen said in their countermeasures, the development of advanced equipment is the most important thing. Blacksmiths, carpenters, shipwrights, painters, etc. are all indispensable talents. The director has not yet been determined. .

Farming, in the farming era, the land was the guarantee of everything. If an official does not know how to be considerate of the people in farming, Lu Heng wants talents who can govern the world, not a sour Confucian who only knows poetry and poetry. Zhang Zhao will be the director for the time being.

Bing, as the name suggests, the art of war, the way out for military generals in today's troubled times is to learn the art of war, with Yu Yunwen as the director for the time being.

Education, we are talking about martial arts and riding skills. Martial arts and riding skills are also an important part in troubled times. A fierce general is very useful in a war with cold weapons. For the time being, Tai Shici will be the director.

The doctor is the doctor. In Lu Heng's mind, Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing are in charge of these two subjects, but Lu Heng has not found these two subjects so far. The director is temporarily held by the most respected old man in the army.

Beasts, but veterinarians. Lu Heng thought about this subject for a long time, but he still decided to add it. Now Lu Heng's opponents are not only the world's heroes, but also the strongest nomads in northern history. Veterinarians are indispensable for horses and cattle. Not to mention the flying pigeons that are still in conception, etc., the director has not yet been determined.

Lu Heng wanted to divide these brats into two subjects of civil and martial arts. The liberal arts are civil servants. The two subjects of economics and morality are compulsory, and the second of the three subjects of agriculture, military affairs, and mathematics must be selected as a major. The rest are chosen by the students themselves. There are two types, internal affairs talents and counselor talents.

Martial arts is much simpler. The three subjects of morality, military and education are compulsory subjects, and the rest are chosen by the candidates themselves. As for other specialists, they will choose to major separately.

This Jiangdong Academy is not only the children of the second generation of officials, Lu Heng plans to set aside a special bank for the construction of the academy, which can recruit the children of nobles, poor families, and common people to study.

Given the situation at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was impossible for these children to be mixed in the same class, and it would only intensify the conflict between poor families and commoners and nobles.

Hierarchy is something that cannot be eliminated. Even if all kinds of 'ideas' in later generations are based on hierarchy, which of the listed companies, arbitrary power hubs, etc. in later generations is not a pyramid structure?

What Lu Heng wants to change is not the hierarchical system, and it is impossible to change it. What Lu Heng wants to change is the relationship between each class.

For example, Lu Heng is on the road of striving for hegemony. In this feudal era, the supremacy of imperial power is impossible to change. If the traverser wants to create a democracy and public election system now, it can be said that Wang Mang is him. end!

But the check and balance between imperial power and civil and military is a big question. The Jin Dynasty after the Han Dynasty was the heyday of the gentry, and it was the compromise of the imperial power to the gentry.

The military system of the Tang Dynasty, the Governor's Mansion, Jiedushi, etc., gave the soldiers great power, which led to the occurrence of the Anshi Rebellion, which led to the loss of control of power, and the ability to openly challenge the imperial power. In the later period, the soldiers even killed literati like dogs.

But in the Song Dynasty, in order to suppress military power, Zhao Kuangyin used literature to control military affairs and the status of military generals. Fortunately, Zhao Kuangyin was born as a military general and knew balance.

After his younger brother Zhao Guangyi's lineage came to power, he got worse and lost his balance. Civil servants could execute a military general as long as they moved their mouths.

In the Ming Dynasty, culture was also emphasized over military affairs, but the Ming court was extremely stingy. It can be said that Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to seize all the money in his own hands and kill corrupt officials, but it backfired and all the money fell into the hands of civil servants, and his descendants were extremely poor. country.

Civil servants in this era of the Ming Dynasty were basically forced to lose their integrity!

Lu Heng, as a common man of later generations, can only explore this path by himself. How to formulate laws and systems to reduce the huge gap between the nobles, poor families, and common people is what Lu Heng has to think about and do now.

For example, the Eastern Han Dynasty ruled the country with filial piety, as long as the gentry killed civilians in the name of filial piety, or the weak gentry were completely innocent, it was still regarded as a manifestation of filial piety!

This kind of lawless behavior is everywhere, and it is also a manifestation of the chaos in the late Han Dynasty!
Lu Heng himself came from the top gentry in Jiangdong, and many people in the Lu family looked at the existence of other commoners with superior eyes.

It's just that the heads of the Lu family for several generations have been famous people. They are honest officials and love the people. The heads of the family control the people in the clan and there is almost no bullying of the common people.

The Lu family is like this, let alone some other families whose eyes are higher than the top. Unlocking the wisdom of the people is something that every traveler will do. Lu Heng is going to boil the frogs in warm water, and slowly build it. Building an academy is the first step. Lu Heng divides the academy into The secondary department and the higher department are similar to the compulsory study and university systems of later generations!
The middle part is to open up the wisdom of the people and the integration of nationalities through specific Confucianism, rather than the so-called fusion with swords and blood.

The Ministry of Higher Education is an institution of strict entry and exit, which trains middle and high-end talents, generals and officials who can be directly used by Lu Heng.

In order to alleviate class conflicts, Lu Heng of the Middle School is planning to divide the gentry classes, set up a separate advanced class, and charge high tuition fees, book fees, etc.

The general education class will recruit children from areas under the administration, and voluntarily enroll children aged 11 to [-] to learn basic knowledge.

In the middle school, these classes are not completely independent, Lu Heng will cleverly set up some names to guide and gradually let the two sides have a certain contact.

There is no longer a distinction between the higher divisions. The higher divisions are admitted by the middle division examination. After several years of brainwashing by Lu Heng, I believe that the new generation of nobles will have less concept of family status and more.

Lu Heng slightly modified the compulsory study and university system of later generations and moved them to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. This is also the first attempt to break the family's monopoly of knowledge.

It is necessary to stabilize the gentry and slowly open up the wisdom of the people. This is also something that Lu Heng's background cannot be changed. It is impossible to kill all the gentry. If you blindly kill the old gentry, the heroes who followed Lu Heng to conquer the world will become new ones. The gentry, aristocrats and so on.

Are you going to kill them all again?In this way, the first one to be killed is Lu Heng, this is human nature!
This is also the reason why Lu Heng did not dare to develop movable type printing and papermaking technology when he was not stable yet. If he took out these two killer weapons, he would definitely stand on the opposite side of the world's gentry.

The more he lived in this era, the more Lu Heng realized the influence and energy of the gentry in this era. How to walk across this single-plank bridge may be more difficult than Lu Heng's unifying the world or resisting his old enemies.

Lu Heng also stipulated that children over 12 years old should study in the academy in the morning and go to the tutor to practice in the afternoon. The talents that Lu Heng pays special attention to will even let the little kid become a tutor directly.

For example, Lu Yi asked him to directly worship Yu Yunwen as his teacher.

When Ling Tong was ten years old, he planned to become Taishi Ci's disciple.

Gu Shao became a disciple of Zhang Hong.

Taishi Xiang, this kid, Lu Heng, was left to Hu Yanzan.

The principle that Lu Heng asked them to learn from each other was not to allow blood relatives to train them. Historically, the success rate of training by blood relatives is too low!
As for why he attached importance to Tai Shixiang, Lu Heng also wanted to challenge the inertia of history and see if he could train Tai Shixiang to be a famous general like his father.

There are only a few pens of Tai Shixiang in history, but the son of Tai Shici just disappeared into history.

Lu Heng believed that within five years, he would be able to cultivate a new batch of useful talents for himself, which would be the day when these boys would show off their skills.

However, just as Lu Heng was preparing for his own talent cultivation and other matters, Zhou Yu in Yuzhang City was also making arrangements for the last step and was about to finish.
