In fact, it was extremely hoped that Tian Ruoju could be admitted into the Zhi family, but Tian Ruanju showed clear resistance for a long time.
According to Tian Ranju, Qi Jinggong and Yan Ying were both very kind to him. As long as Jin and Qi did not restore their alliance for a day, how could they serve Jin?
This is out of selfish kindness, not because of any psychological barriers as a Qi citizen serving the Jin state.
People nowadays are like this. If they can live better in a certain country, they won't have any psychological worries at all if they live in another country.
Nowadays, the flow of talents between countries is relatively small, but it became frequent during the Warring States Period.
Zhiyao, who roughly understood Tian Ranju's thoughts, was not in a hurry at all.
As long as Tian Ruoju stays at Lao Zhi's house, he can always get it done one day.
That is to say, Zhiyao still doesn't know that Gongshuban has been born and is one year older than her. Otherwise, do you believe that Zhishi took the lead in attacking the Lu country in order to snatch Gongshuban?
Zhishi was actually very lucky, or it could be said that Zhiyao knew how to build relationships and allowed Laozi and Confucius to visit Zhishi as guests.
When Laozi arrived, the Zhi family had a collection of books that was not inferior to that of the Zhou royal family. The number of books they owned was the largest among all nobles, and many of them were secret collections.
Confucius did not bring any works to Zhishi, but a large number of disciples helped Zhiyao in various ways at Zhiyao's request. Only by doing enlightenment work for Zhishi, it invisibly added more than a trace of Zhishi's heritage.
Half a point.
To put it simply, after Confucius's disciples came to Zhishi, the number of literate people in Zhishi directly increased by nearly ten thousand.
And that was based on the premise that Zhiyao could not gather more children, so it could only limit the benefits to the clan members, retainers and the descendants of meritorious "scholars" and "disciples", and it was difficult to benefit the subordinate class.
With nearly 10,000 literate people and so many books written by me silently, can’t you imagine what Zhishi will be like in the future?
Later, Zhiyao carried out special training as needed, recruited a group of grassroots officers, planned an administrative training system, and many other aspects.
It can be said that waiting for those people to fill all aspects of Zhishi, it will be difficult for Zhishi not to enter the moment of take-off.
What is currently doubtful is how big a stage Zhiyao can create for them.
"I heard that the Zhi family sent people to travel around the country to look for talents?" Tian Ruoju asked.
Cultivate internally and then absorb talents from the outside. Zhiyao has been doing that a few years ago!
The current turmoil in Zhuxia is very serious. Not only does the weakening of Jin's hegemony make wars between countries become more frequent, there are also civil wars within many countries from time to time.
Under frequent turbulence, large families may be destroyed at any time, and small and medium-sized nobles who are not strong are involved in the turmoil and their families are destroyed in minutes.
In this chaotic situation, some nobles or their descendants whose families have disappeared can only find other ways to make a living. Considering the fact that literacy is now a talent, Zhiyao, who cannot issue any recruitment orders, will not forget to send people everywhere to recruit talents.
This kind of thing.
Why can't we make a recruitment order? It's mainly related to "name" and "vessel". Not to mention that Zhiyao is just the prince, and he can't do that even if he becomes the head of the Zhi clan one day, otherwise he will be stepping on the ground and rubbing the princes.
So sending people everywhere to recruit talents is a waste of effort, as long as it works.
Zhiyao said: "In this case, sir, you can't escape."
At this moment, Zhiyao was still a little happy, thinking: "Is Tian Juju paying attention to Zhi's movements? The representative is still a little interested in getting involved, otherwise why bother paying attention."
What kind of sincerity can lead to gold and stone being opened? In many cases, the goal can be achieved, but Zhiyao already knows that Tian Ranju is grateful for the kindness of Qi Jinggong and Yan Ying, and doing so would insult Tian Ranju's personality.
Zhiyao can only wait for Tian Rangju to think about it and let go one day, otherwise any active solicitation may be counterproductive.
Tian Ruoju, who was repeatedly stressed that he could not leave, just smiled. He was a noble, but if the Zhi family wanted to gain fame, what else could be done to him?
Precisely because Tian Youju was a noble, and could escape without permission, contemporary nobles would never do it.
Even if Tian Ruoju is asked to leave now, he actually doesn't want to leave.
The Lao Zhi family has paper and can print books. The most important thing is that there are a lot of books, and some books are not allowed to be borrowed by Tian Juanju. How unimaginable is it to leave without acquiring enough knowledge?
"Zhiyao is writing a book on war, which is purely about training troops and formations. This is what I am missing." Tian Ruoju knew that Zhiyao was also writing a book, and the type was still full of useful information.
Earlier, out of integrity, he had not gone to spy on how the Zhishi's new army was doing. Later, the army was transferred to "Handan" to be stationed. He followed Zhiyao to the military camp several times and found that it was different from the existing armies of other countries.
With the words "Zhi's new army dares to be the first in the world".
When I met a colleague, although this colleague was not very old, he had twice led an army to defeat the coalition forces of the princes, and also invaded "Linzi" and captured himself. It was difficult not to make Tian Ruoju feel the desire to communicate. Maybe his mentality
Still a little anxious.
In the next period of time, Zhiyao saw that Tian Ruoju was obviously talking a lot more than before, and he also repeatedly inquired about the arrangement of the Dongshan Heidi raider.
"If you use Sir as the 'general' for this battle, how will you arrange it?" Zhiyao asked.
The military book written by Tian Ruoju actually starts from a strategic perspective, which is a broad type. It does not involve military training. The tactics are also very mysterious. If you don't have a little talent, you won't be able to learn it even if you read it. Learn practical application and
It is absolutely impossible for the author of the military book to conduct the same command.
In other words, most military books are like this. It's not that the author doesn't want to teach, but that most people can't understand them.
Most of Zhu Xia's military books talk about strategy, and those on the tactical level are rare. It is even less likely that military training and other matters will be published to the public. If they are written, they will be erased by those in power.
Because the categories of military books are different, it is difficult to say whether Tian Ruoju knows how to train soldiers, but even if he knows how to train soldiers, his routines will not be the same as Zhiyao's.
Tian Ruju did not immediately open his mouth when he heard the question. He first asked Zhiyao about the current situation of Heidi in Dongshan, and then asked about the terrain. Zhishi must also master the troops dispatched, and then began to slowly explain his own views.
Based on his arrangement, he thought that he should march quietly, first block some areas according to the terrain, arrange appropriate troops next to each Di tribe, and then attack together at the agreed time.
Zhiyao thought to herself: "I can only say that we thought about it together, but...did Tian Ruoju miss something?"
Tian Ruoju, who was sitting opposite, still had a thoughtful expression on his face.
"How much labor did it take for Zhishi to defeat Heidi?" Tian Ranju asked.
Zhiyao didn't shy away from it and gave a formal answer directly.
Tian Ruoju asked again: "Why not drive 'Gai Yu' away?"
Yes, if Dongshan Heidi is attacked, they will definitely retreat to the only city of "Gaiyu" if they can't bear it.
With the fighting power of the Zhi family, even if the Dongshan Heidi were gathered together, they would be a dish, and there would be no difficulty in solving it. It would be a big trouble to force the Dongshan Heidi to tangle in the mountains and forests.
So, Dongshan Black Di is obviously not difficult to defeat, why didn’t the family take action before? This involves many aspects, including the lack of interest.
There are a lot of barbarians in Jin who are not under the management of various families. If it were not for the extreme shortage of labor, the nobles would even ignore the surrounding barbarians, and no one would be willing to attack foreign forces and plunder the population for labor.
What is a savage? Each time period has a different definition. The only one that is the same is the non-taxpaying class.
A long time ago, the difference between savages and Chinese people was that they did not live in the city. Later, it became that their personal safety and property were not protected in any way. Later, the only difference was whether there was a noble covering their heads.
Because they do not belong to the jurisdiction of a certain noble, and do not have the protection of the nobles, they are naturally not within the protection scope of the patriarchal clan. Whether it is an internal fight in the world, or being hunted by a noble, basically they are dead if they die.
, no one in power will seek justice.
As for paying taxes? In the Spring and Autumn Period, there was still an evolution process of the tax-paying class. It is too long to mention that in the era when Zhiyao grew up, only the "disciples" and above were eligible to pay taxes. Free citizens below the "disciples" and
Slaves were still not eligible to pay taxes.
Therefore, modern people cannot understand that they feel happy if they are qualified to pay taxes. To put it bluntly, being qualified to pay taxes also means having some privileges. If you are not qualified to pay taxes, there is no protection of your rights and interests.
.
Zhiyao knew that there were savages everywhere and wanted to take action against them, but the situation was very inappropriate.
There were two old cases in the Jin Kingdom where various families took action against the barbarians. The first was during the period when Duke Wen of Jin was dominant, and the second was after the Que family was destroyed.
Why is it said that the current situation in Jin is not suitable for recruiting wild people? In fact, it has to do with current affairs. The wrong time to take action will irritate various families. Furthermore, it is more difficult to recruit wild people than to attack Dongshan Heidi.
To put it simply, we have gathered the savages out of the same culture and species, and we don’t want to be as rough as we would treat foreigners. This is not for other reasons, it is more or less a moral consensus among the nobles.
"Sir, would you like to follow me to Gaiyu?" Zhiyao asked.
Tian Juanju immediately replied: "Of course!"
The Zhi family has a new army, and Tian Juanju is writing a military book again. It will be of great help to see how the Zhi family's new army fights.
Now Tian Ruoju has also figured out one thing. Zhishi stands very high from a strategic perspective. Zhishi has already thought of what he can think of and started doing it.
"Is it all planned by Zhiyao alone, or is it a strategy planned by the brain trust of the Zhi family?" Tian Juanju was extremely curious about this, but he would never ask if he asked.
But Zhiyao was thinking: "I'm not afraid that you'll be curious, but I'm afraid that you'll be indifferent. As long as you get curious and then participate, and experience the high-end game, are you still willing to play in the low-end game?"
Of course, it cannot be ruled out that after Tian Ruoju learned something new from Zhishi, he ran back to Qi State to perform in various ways.
Once Tian Ruoju finally returns to Qi? You really can’t blame Zhiyao for being cruel!
It was only when they received a report from Cheng Shuo that they had marched in to "cover you" that they took enough escorts and set off.
It was already the second year that Zhishi took action against Dongshan Heidi. To a certain extent, in mountainous areas, Zhishi's combat effectiveness was much higher than the opponent's, and they still played hide-and-seek with Dongshan Heidi for half a year.
In the new year, the Jin Congress will be very lively...
