Chapter 1136: Conquest


With the arrival of the edict of revisation, there was also the final decision of the imperial court on the parliament.

The council was retained, but the imperial court abolished the Lingnan council and only went to the provincial level.

For this result, Li Chao can accept it, which is even beyond his expectations. originally thought that this matter would be more difficult to pass, but he also thought about making a roundabout war, launching the relationship between Beijing and China, and making long-term preparations.

I didn't expect it to pass so quickly.

The speaker is elected by the imperial court, and the reasons for the council of the parliament are also elected by the imperial court among the members, and the court officials do not serve as members, which Li Chao can also accept.

It's always like this, and you can't all go your way.

The fact that the parliament has been retained is already a very good step forward.

The court sent someone to be the speaker of the parliament and elected the councillors from among the councillors, and these had nothing to do with him.

It is important that the parliament is preserved, and that the slang chieftains, the landlords, and the wealthy can also become parliamentarians, and that is enough.

"What's the latest news in Hanjing?"

Li Chao asked Wang Sheren.

"There has been no news in Hanjing recently, county exams have been held in various places this fall, and more than 1,000 counties in the world have recorded 50,000 talents."

Wang Sheren said with some excitement. 50,000 talents, Li Chao doesn't think it's much, after all, there are more than 1,000 counties in the Tang Dynasty, think about the end of the Ming Dynasty, there were 500,000 or 600,000 talents in the country.

This year is the first year of the reform of the imperial examination system, which has changed from one subject a year to one subject every three years, and has also changed from the direct selection of tribute students to enter the Beijing examination to the three-level examination of the county examination.

Today's Jinshi is not as good as in the past, and now only Jinshi is the right way.

There are dozens of other departments such as arithmetic, law, medicine, etc., but they belong to junior colleges, and they are admitted to professional and technical talents, which is completely different from Jinshi.

The junior college is examined once a year, and most of them are officials after the examination, and the follow-up of the Shike carp leaping dragon gate is very different.

But it is much more difficult to get into the Jinshi, and you have to take the test of Jingyi and policy, and even take the test of poetry, and add some historical and geographical objects.

Even the scriptures are tested for the thirteen classics, rather than each candidate can only pass one or two scriptures to test the corresponding classics.

Is it greatly increased.

In particular, he has passed the third level of the county road association, and finally has to go to the Golden Palace, and the emperor himself will take the exam to determine the ranking.

Just one subject in three years is enough to make this imperial examination completely different.

In the first county examination, the average number of students admitted to each county in the country was less than 40.

In some Central Plains places, thousands of candidates take the examination in one county, and the county examination also has to go through three examinations, and each time a group of people have to be eliminated, and in the end, only a few dozen people are admitted.

This is also because this is the first time that the new imperial examination has been held, and the imperial court intends to increase the number of admissions, and the admission rate will be even lower for the next subject, with an average of less than 20 admissions in a county. 50,000 talents have the qualifications to take the Taoist qualification examination next year.

Xiucai can't take the Dao exam directly, they also have to take a qualification exam first, the Dao Science Exam.

This is also an important measure of the new imperial examination, from the county examination to the provincial examination to the general examination, there is such a qualification examination.

If the next class of students wants to participate in the county examination, they must first take the county examination, which is a qualification examination.

The purpose of this qualifying examination is to limit the number of references.

Each county has a quota for those who are admitted according to the number of people in the quota who can take the prefectural examination.

In the same way, Xiucai can't directly participate in the Dao test, they have to take the Dao test first, if a Dao regulations only allow 1,000 Xiucai to reference, then if the whole Dao has thousands of Xiucai, you have to eliminate most of the people first.

Thousands of troops crossed the single-plank bridge, and this was the most cruel imperial examination.

In the future, the talents and lifters who will be admitted every year will be relatively fixed.

Most of the 50,000 talents admitted this year are concentrated in the Central Plains, and there are a few Lingnan provinces, and none of the 1,000 talents have arrived.

"Any other news?"

"I heard that the Meishanman of Hunan Province was going to rebel, and many officials wrote to ask for the Meizhou barbarian."

The king remembered something.

Li Chao shook his head.

Hunan Road is drawn out from Jiangxi Road, which is in the west of Jiangxi, the south of Shannan East, the south of the Yangtze River, and the north of Wuling.

This is a relatively closed basin, if there is no Yangtze River division, in fact, it is a whole with Shannan and Dongdong.

However, there is a huge difference between the development of Hunan and Shandong, and Shannan and East are considered to be more developed places in the Central Plains, especially now that the imperial court has moved to Beijing and Dengzhou, Jingxiangdeng, the center of the world, is becoming more and more prosperous.

But in Dongting Hunan, the Yangtze River, it is a wild land.

A large number of barbarians lived there, especially in the mountains, and almost all of them were barbarian territory.

Among these barbarians, the Meizhou barbarians are the most powerful, in fact, the Meizhou barbarians and the slang people in Lingnan, the fangs in Qianzhong, the Yi people in Shu, etc., are all about the same.

Many of them were the Yue, Ba, Shu, Chu and other tribes who migrated south in the past, and some were local natives.

These people are far less advanced and open than the civilization of the Han people in the Central Plains, and they retreat into the mountains and are relatively backward.

For thousands of years, while the Han people continued to expand southward, they also had contact and exchange with the Han people, and they generally belonged to the Central Plains Dynasty, but lived their lives behind closed doors in the mountains.

When Li Chao was in Xiangyang, he conquered the barbarians in the south and east of the mountains, and they were also a barbarian branch.

And here in Hunan, there are also many barbarians, the strongest of which is Meizhou barbarian.

From Dongting Hunan, all the way to the north of Wuling Mountain, in the border mountains of Hunan, Qianzhong and Jiangxi, they are all barbarian tribes.

"I'm afraid there is a big story about the barbarian rebellion," Li Chao chuckled a few times.

Wang Sheren only smiled when he saw Li Chao breaking it.

Cheng Qian asked Li Chao suspiciously, "Teacher, is there any inside story here?"

There is an insider, and the insider is that although the barbarians often make trouble, in fact, most of the time it is still caused by some conflicts.

The so-called Southern Barbarian Rebellion this time is basically the rise of industry and commerce in the Central Plains, and the huge demand for workers has stimulated the slave market.

Although the sea slave trade is expanding, it is still difficult to meet the demand for slaves from the sea, and secondly, the price of slaves from the sea is still relatively high.

In this situation, many people have set their sights on Hunan, Qianzhong, Bashu and other places, and they have taken a fancy to the brute fangs here.

How can buying slaves be as fast as catching slaves directly, and making money from them?

It was under these circumstances that a large number of slave hunters rose up, went into the mountains to capture the village, and captured the barbarians as slaves.

In fact, Li Chao also planned to hunt slaves in the southwest, but the plan he formulated at that time was to salute first and then soldiers, and those who were willing to join the imperial court and were willing to organize the people should be treated well and would not attack.

Their targets are mainly those who have a bad reputation, often intercept trade routes, collect tolls, and even go down to the mountains from time to time to rob.

It is not only to capture slaves, but also to spread the prestige of the imperial court.

But now these people only have slaves and money in their eyes, and they don't care about good and evil.

All they knew was to organize a slave hunting team into the mountains, and when they saw a village, they attacked it, and they took people into captivity.

There are the most slave hunters in Hunan, and the trouble is also the largest.

The barbarians are not so easy to bully, when they were captured and attacked the village, they also quickly began to connect in series, and finally under the leadership of several leaders of the Meizhou barbarians, they simply reversed.

The barbarians in the mountains of Hunan Province were killed down the mountain, and they launched a revenge, burning, killing, looting, and attacking the prefectures and counties of the Han villages under the mountain.

For a time, there was a lot of smoke in Hunan, countless villages were destroyed, and even prefectures and counties were lost one after another.

This incident directly shocked the emperor.

This is greed.

If you don't control it, things can get out of hand.

If Li Chao was in charge, he would definitely not let things develop to this point.

The chaos of the sky and the earth will inevitably have such an ending.

The barbarians in Hunan are far less powerful than the combined forces of the slang fangs and the Hanhao in Lingnan, but those people in Lingnan who Li Chao ruled in Lingnan were obedient, but the Hunan side turned the world upside down.

In the end, who was unlucky was the Han people in Hunan, who suffered innocent disasters, and it was the imperial court that was damaged.

"How did this end?"

Li Chao shook his head at Cheng Qian, how can it end, it must be a fight.

Although it was those slave catchers who made trouble, these slave catchers were actually from those noble families, and it was impossible for the court to punish them in this matter.

The imperial court must deal with the barbarians first, no matter what the cause is, anyway, now that the barbarians have rebelled, they must be controlled by burning, killing and looting.

Maybe even the aristocratic families will push behind their backs, clamoring to destroy all the barbarians and take them all into slavery.

Sure enough.

A few days later, Li Chao saw the latest news about the Meizhou rebellion in the latest issue of the newspaper.

The imperial court appointed Luo Shixin as the head of the march of Hunan Province and Shan Xiongxin as the deputy head of the army.

The two conscripted troops from Shannan and Jiangxi and went to Hunan to quell the rebellion.

Seeing the names of Luo Shixin and Shan Xiongxin, Li Chao knew that this time things would not be good.

Luo Shixin is a god of killing, Lao Cheng is a demon king, but Luo Shixin is a real god of killing.

As soon as he got out of the horse, the barbarians of Hunan Province would definitely be killed in rivers of blood.

Perhaps, this time the imperial court will take the opportunity of this barbarian rebellion to seize the actual control of Hunan Province strongly, and the barbarians will not want to have the right to be restrained in the future.

Who cares if the barbarians live or die?

Even now, who cares what caused this rebellion?

Lingnan has just been flat, and now the imperial court is sharpening its knives to Hunan, where is the next step Qianzhong is still Yunnan "The teacher doesn't seem to be very happy" Cheng Qian couldn't help but ask when he saw Li Chao frowning all the time holding the newspaper.

Li Chao shook his head, things in Hunan are very cruel, but this is also inevitable.

The Han civilization has also been constantly expanding to the periphery, and the expansion of the territory is actually a history of conquest.

Conquest, there will inevitably be bloodshed.

The Chinese civilization, which was once only in the Yellow River Valley, now does not know how much territory it has expanded to the surrounding areas.

Putting down the newspaper, Li Chao said to Cheng Gan, "The rainy season is over, and I will officially go to get my feudal country back." ” Zhao State, this is a territory that is now part of Zhenla, but it will be included in the Han family's territory in the hands of his Li Chao t1706231537:
