The restructuring of the Qiren Pavilion naturally caused dissatisfaction among many people in both the government and the public. Some people even wrote to the court, bluntly stating that the new structure of the Qirin Pavilion was not conducive to the stability of the court, and put forward some seemingly reasonable suggestions.
However, it had no effect.
Chu Nan is not a Shoucheng king. He has conquered the world. He has absolute control over the Kyushu that he currently controls. Facts have also proved that Chu Nan's reform and arrangement of the Qiren Hall system has done more good than harm to the world.
After the restructuring, in just three months, Chu Nan could clearly feel that the world's luck was flowing smoothly. In this world, it is impossible for everyone to become an official. That would be unrealistic, but it does not mean that being an official is something a few people are born with, at least.
We have to let the people at the bottom see hope.
In that case, even if you are eventually dismissed, it will be because your skills are inferior to others, not because of your family background.
Especially the restrictions on officials and wealthy businessmen have put a certain amount of pressure on the new forces that have just begun to rise in Kyushu. In fact, there are other ways for the children of these people to enter the officialdom, but the way given by Chu Nan is too harsh. Even if
As a child of an official, the chance of becoming an official through this route is less than 30%. This is because Chunan's power is still in its infancy and there are insufficient manpower.
In the future, with the continuous expansion of the number of troops and the expansion of officials' heirs, it is foreseeable that this probability will continue to decrease. This is also the reason why the government and the public are dissatisfied with Chu Nan's reform of the Qiren Hall system. If one can enter the official career through the Qiren Hall, this probability will undoubtedly increase.
A lot has been made, but the price is that the people no longer have a way to rise.
In fact, entering the Qiren Pavilion does not necessarily mean you will become an official. The Qiren Pavilion is equivalent to an academy open to the public. Many things can be taught here, such as culture, martial arts, art of war, etc. In the Qiren Pavilion, those who can eventually enter the official career
The probability is actually even more harsh. If the probability of a child of an official becoming an official is 30% to 40%, then the probability of becoming an official in the Qiren Hall is 10%, and the standard for being selected into the Qiren Hall is one in a hundred!
Only those who are top-notch in a certain area can enter the Qiren Hall. The Qiren Hall will give them ten years. Within ten years, only those whose evaluation reaches B can choose to become an official. If they fail to achieve it within ten years, it proves that they are not capable enough to be an official.
, we can only find another way out.
However, Qi Ren Guan disciples are all selected from the best. With Qi Ren Guan’s status, it is not difficult to make money among the people, and for some special talents who are not suitable for officialdom, Qi Ren Guan will stay, such as those who are good at
Refining medicine and refining weapons.
In short, after the new regulations were implemented, the effect was good. Officials may lie to people, but luck cannot fool people. Feeling the changes in luck, Chu Nan was very satisfied with this decision.
During these days when he returned to Xuchang, Chu Nan basically sorted out various systems. Now the world is in a period of great changes, and the rules of the past may not be applicable today. What the Prime Minister's Office has done during this period is to revise the laws and regulations of the past.
Make some corrections.
At the same time, the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Household Affairs were actively preparing for war and preparing for the upcoming southern expedition. He and a group of advisers often gathered together to deduce how the princes of Jingzhou, Jiangdong, and Bashu would deal with the general trend of the Central Plains in order to speculate on various possibilities for future wars.
.
Among them, the most likely one is the alliance between Sun and Liu to fight against Chu. Sun here naturally refers to Sun Quan, and Liu refers to Liu Zhang and Liu Biao.
Although the combined combat power of the three parties is not that of Chu Nan, this is in the case of a direct decisive battle.
But the battlefield is not about pulling out soldiers from both sides for training. It depends on the geographical environment, the aspirations of the people, the morale of the troops, the abilities of the generals, and the mentality of the commander and the master.
In Shu, there are dangerous mountains and rivers, and there are large rivers and natural chasms in the east of the Yangtze River. At least for now, these dangers still have great strategic significance. Therefore, although Chu Nan currently has the general situation, its victory is not absolutely guaranteed, and the winning rate is only 90% at most.
But if the battle is lost, just like the Battle of Chibi in the original historical time and space, Chu Nan will lose the chance to dominate the world, at least for the next ten years.
Of course, Chu Nan is still young, unlike Cao Cao who was in his twilight years in history. He has the cost and opportunity of trial and error, but Chu Nan still hopes to conquer the world in one fell swoop with an absolute chance of winning, so after the initial stage
After the expansion state, Chu Nan's mentality returned to stability, he began to accumulate strength, and actively discussed with everyone the strategy to fight the enemy.
"Sun Quan and Er Liu can only fight against our army by forming an alliance, and between the three places, Jingzhou is the key point and the hub. If Jingzhou can be captured without bloodshed, there will be a navy to fight against Jiangdong, even the Jingxiang Navy
It is not as elite as the Jiangdong navy, but it still has an advantageous position in attacking from above and below.
As long as we turn this battle into a war of attrition, our army will win!" After another simulation, Guo Jia analyzed the current world situation for Chu Nan in a eloquent manner.
The world is divided into four parts. Chu Nan's family only occupies the territory of Jiuzhou, while Sun Quan, Liu Biao, and Liu Zhang each occupy one state. Sun Quan's territory has not yet been fully occupied. Yangzhou has Jiujiang, and the two counties of Lujiang are in Chu Nan's hands. Although Sun Quan's two counties are in the hands of Chu Nan,
We captured Jiaozhou in 2001, but firstly, the terrain was remote, and secondly, Jiaozhou was already a remote place, and its population was not much better than that of Xiliang.
With Jianghuai in hand, Chu Nan actually has the ability to launch an attack on Jiangdong at any time. If Jiangdong had not blocked the river in the past two years and prevented Jianghuai ships from entering the river, Chunan would not have even a naval force now.
So now Chunan wants to conquer the south, mainly to capture Jingzhou. If it can capture Jingzhou, Chunan will have two channels to enter the river. One is to use Chaohu Lake in Hefei to build a navy and enter the Yangtze River by water, and the other is to enter the Yangtze River by itself.
The Han River flows into the Yangtze River and then flows from top to bottom, which is why Jingzhou is important.
As for Shu, although it occupies the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, the water flow in the upper reaches is rapid and the terrain is narrow, which is not suitable for building naval armies. Therefore, there are naval armies in Jingzhou and Jiangdong. Although there are also naval armies in central Sichuan, they are not popular. If we can capture Jinzhou, we will be wiped out.
Jiangdong, Sichuan and Shu can naturally go down, and the rebellion between Zhang Lu and Liu Zhang in Hanzhong also gave Guanzhong a barrier. Even if Liu Zhang wanted to send troops to Chanan, he would be powerless to threaten Longxi like Zhuge Liang in history.
Of course, Chu Nan's biggest advantage is logistics. Since he took possession of the Central Plains, the Central Plains has been rich in resources and people. Now even the people in Xiliang and Bingzhou, which used to be barren, can have a surplus of grain. Jizhou is even more grain-producing
Chu Nan's biggest advantage is now Chu Nan's biggest advantage. He can provide a steady stream of supplies without affecting people's livelihood too much. As long as the war becomes a war of attrition, the first one to be unable to withstand it will definitely be Jiangdong.
.
There is no need for any ingenious tactics. As long as Jiang Dong is pushed evenly, Jiang Dong will definitely lose. What's more, Chu Nan is not without advantages above the water. He can control a large number of water tribe monsters, although he cannot form a formation.
, but when the number increases, it will cause great trouble to the Jiangdong Navy just like the little white dragon did to the Jiangdong Navy.
"There is another problem." Jia Xu said with a smile: "Fengxiao may have been negligent."
"Sir, please give me some advice." Guo Jia raised his eyebrows and looked at Jia Xu.
"There is a lot of miasma in the south. Our army is mainly composed of northerners. The biggest problem in the south is not the enemy, but the disease. If I were Sun Quan, he would try to introduce the disease into our army. The method is not difficult. Don't talk about magical powers.
And so on, as long as people infected with the disease come into contact with our army, the disease will naturally be spread as the number increases." Jia Xu said with a smile: "It's more vicious, and it's easier for the army to manipulate water sources.
Once the epidemic spreads, the battle will probably be lost."
In fact, the plague has not stopped since the Yellow Turbans. After Chu Nan took charge of the Central Plains, he assembled a large number of doctors to clean up the epidemic. At the same time, he carried out some cleaning and isolation measures to prevent the spread of the epidemic in areas with serious epidemics. In addition, he promoted the concept of contemplation.
The restoration of the power greatly improved the human body, and then the plague in the Central Plains was gradually eliminated.
Now like Chu Nan and others, they are full of energy and have entered the ranks of extraordinary people. However, for ordinary soldiers, even if they practice meditation and their physical fitness is greatly improved, it is difficult to be completely immune to the spread of epidemics.
Guo Jia was slightly startled, but he didn't consider this.
Jia Xu smiled and said: "Don't worry about being a filial piety. I have lived in Nanyang for ten years and have a deep understanding of this. I was infected with malaria in my early years. Fortunately, I got proper treatment and saved my life. However, this matter cannot be ignored."
"
The way poisoners think is different, but this problem is indeed difficult to ignore. With limited medical resources, once this thing appears, it is almost difficult to cure it.
Guo Jia nodded silently to express his approval.
"We still have time. Since Wen He brought it up, we have already made preparations for this matter. I will ask Mr. Hua Tuo to prepare the necessary medicinal materials. If the enemy really uses this method, we can prevent it in time." Chu Nan nodded.
.
"But as far as I know, some antidotes for miasma can only be found locally. All things are mutually reinforcing and incompatible. Where there is poison, there must be an antidote within three feet. However, there is no growing environment for similar medicinal materials in the Central Plains."
Jia Xu reminded.
Chu Nan nodded: "It is a difficult problem, but now that I have thought of it, we will prepare in advance. There will always be a way. It is better to be prepared than not to use it, than not to be prepared when it is needed!"
As for other aspects, if you want to defeat Chu Nan, it is nothing more than a flood and fire attack. Chu Nan has paid great attention to this aspect in previous battles and has a mature plan.
First explore the land and mark out all the areas suitable for fire attack and flooded areas. If you can avoid it, avoid it. If you can't avoid it, spread out the scouts like a carpet to be on guard. In short, you must be careful and careful.
"How is the Prime Minister going to solve the navy issue?" Liu Ye looked at Chu Nan and asked.
"This matter is still the responsibility of the Ministry of Industry. I have ordered people to find out the navy's tactics. Training the navy in Hefei will inevitably be spied on and harassed by Jiangdong. We will change the place and train the navy from the Bohai Sea. Since there is no ready-made water
I train military generals myself, and all generals take turns to test them. I don’t believe that there are so many generals in our army, but none of them is suitable to command the navy!" Chu Nan said with a smile, the navy must be trained and arranged in advance.
, since the Yangtze River cannot allow him to train the navy, he will go to sea to practice, and then transfer to Hefei to prepare for war.
"But the Ministry of Industry is still responsible for shipbuilding. I will try my best to get Jiangdong's shipbuilding methods, but there are still some things that need improvement. When the time comes, our army will produce warships that far surpass Jiangdong!"
