Let you be a faint king, and you have unified the six kingdoms?

It just so happened that many people in Gan country volunteered to serve as soldiers recently.

This number is really quite a lot, and many of them have martial arts on them.

The cabinet ministers knew at a glance that it must be the aristocratic family who was helping Qianguo. If Qianguo won, this group of aristocratic families would get the rewards they deserved—that is, promotion and various rewards.

This is an unspoken thing.

The cabinet ministers naturally thought that Luo Lin knew about it.

After all, this abnormal number of soldiers joining the army is indeed too abnormal-it must be those warriors who practiced privately who were instructed by the powerful to join the army.

In the end, [-] new troops were sent to the Qiantang border and started daily drills.

At the same time, with a two-pronged approach, the Jinyiwei Association in Tang State sent 2000 more people to secretly cooperate with Li Min to suppress the family and suppress the rebellion.

Luo Lin dispatched the White Tiger, one of the Four Great Imperial Guards, to go there.

…………

after the cabinet meeting.

Zhao Yang came to the Academy of Engineering a little tired.

He was so tired, mainly because he couldn't say anything, he was just messing around... Obviously he was the chief assistant.

This made Zhao Yang feel a little unconfident again, wondering whether his role as chief assistant was not very good.

It seems that he can only do research.

"Zhao Shoufu."

"Ah, it's Zi'an."

Zhao Yang said the name of a craftsman in the Academy of Engineering in front of him.

This is a young craftsman from a family of craftsmen. He is very imaginative and dexterous. He participated in the emergency design of bombs, which was appreciated by Zhao Yang.

"For today's war, I... actually have an idea."

"Oh? What do you think?"

Zhao Yang asked what new invention he thought was related to war.

But unexpectedly, the craftsman came up with a system.

"Martial examination. The imperial examination system for warriors." The craftsman began to recite the system that the girl from Dugu's family told him.

Zhao Yang's eyes gradually widened.

Chapter 96 Strange land acquisition in coastal areas

Zhao Yang quickly found the cabinet, followed the scriptures, and expressed his idea of ​​martial arts.

In fact, it is similar to fighting in the arena, slowly selecting enough outstanding fighters, and this area is also divided into male martial arts and female martial arts.

However, the response was mediocre.

"Old man?" Zhao Yang was stunned, he thought this system was pretty good.

"Master Shoufu." Zhang Qian glanced helplessly at this Shoufu, "Nowadays, it's not good to spend a lot of money on this. This martial arts will be held in various parts of Qianguo."

"But... the national treasury is full now, and there is a lot of money." Zhao Yang said, "And this will be beneficial to the selection of low-level warriors."

"There are warriors at the lower level?" Shen Wu said suddenly.

Zhao Yang: "What do you mean?"

"Let me tell you about the origin of a child with martial arts talent." Shen Wudao, "The first one is that the family is poor, or they are lucky enough to be admitted to a martial arts school to practice martial arts. After training, they will participate in martial arts. The sect has the final say. Or if you are not lucky enough to work in a poor family. Then you lose everyone, at most because you are physically stronger. But such a person is going to be the pillar of the family and do all kinds of hard work. Unless the army has good benefits In fact, the reformed military system welcomes such people.”

"The second type. The family is rich and noble. Hire a teacher to teach the child martial arts, and then feed him enough to have the strength to practice martial arts. Prepare the medicine for traumatic injuries, prepare the weapons, everything is money. But in the end, whether to join the army or not It's what the family says."

"The third type. Children of the martial arts sect. Same, it is up to the martial arts sect whether to join the army or not."

"If you take a closer look, the military examination system is very weak. In the imperial examination, if you pass the examination, you will get benefits and become an official. And military commanders have a high status during wartime, and their influence in all aspects is far inferior to that of civil officials."

"If martial arts are held, then only second-rate masters will be selected. Zhao Shoufu, how can we give benefits?"

"With fewer benefits, martial arts are no longer attractive."

"There are too many benefits, so what about the previous channels for joining the army? Now joining the army, relying on military exploits to gradually rise up, how many kills, how much the general's position will rise, there is no water. And the warriors selected by this martial arts are all determined by the overall quality."

"The purpose of the martial arts system is to select civilian talents, but the fact is that civilian warriors who want to join the army have their own channels, and they can do it everywhere. This is an existing system. If you add another system, it may be a local Chicken feathers, and it costs a lot, after all, it is a nationwide election. The screening effect depends on the total quality of the participants."

"Zhao Shoufu, with all due respect, Gan Guo cannot be dragged down by these tasteless things."

"But... you are the chief assistant after all, and this matter can be left to His Majesty to decide."

Shen Wu seemed to think it was a bit too much.

Added the last sentence.

In his heart, he felt that Zhao Yang was not doing his job properly.

Although he knew movable type printing and cement, these largely depended on the reasons why Zhao Yang raised the status of workers and founded colleges such as the Academy of Engineering after he took office.

But this time it was far from Zhao Yang's professional field, so he had to give a pertinent opinion.

"..." Zhao Yang felt a little uncomfortable.

It was refreshing to hear the system suddenly.

Yes, literati can conduct imperial examinations, why can't warriors conduct imperial examinations?

With the addition of this system, various martial arts masters can be screened out through martial arts to join the army and strengthen the country's national strength.

But after what Shen Wu said, Zhao Yang felt that he was indeed too idealistic.

"Every new idea deserves affirmation."

"Ask His Majesty for his opinion."

Zhao Yang muttered something to himself, and then began to write the memorial.

The rest of the cabinet ministers glanced at him, exchanged glances cryptically, shook their heads, and then went about their business.

Zhao Yang in the eyes of the cabinet ministers: not as good as Ke Wu.

…………

Luo Lin soon received a note from the chief minister of the cabinet.

After reading it, he was surprised.

I didn't expect that someone in this era would be able to propose martial arts. This martial arts system was proposed during Wu Zetian's period, and it has not received special attention in the follow-up. It is indeed because it is relatively weak.

Only in the Qing Dynasty, martial arts were taken seriously, and martial artists flocked to them.

Luo Lin looked at the good and bad written on it.

Also nodded.

Combined with the history of the original world that he knew, the cabinet's evaluation of this martial arts was very pertinent: tasteless, spending a lot of money but not being particularly useful.

"Okay! It's you!"

He hasn't given up ruining the country's fortunes yet.

This one sure works.

It's good to spend money, spend all the money, only if you spend the money, can you ruin the country's destiny!

then.

The news came.

The cabinet was dumbfounded.

Cabinet minister: "???"

"This..." Shen Wu felt a little uneasy on his face.

He felt that this martial arts system was very crotchless and tasteless, but the emperor, who had not made any wrong choices so far, chose to agree to this decision.

Could it be... Is there something I didn't think of?

Shen Wu fell into deep thought.

The rest of the cabinet ministers were also puzzled.

Even Zhao Yang felt very strange.

Because... even Zhao Yang was convinced by Shen Wu's rhetoric!

Why, why does His Majesty agree to the martial arts system? ?

Zhao Yang is numb.

"Your Majesty must have deep meaning in doing this! I'll just say that the martial arts system is good." Zhao Yang stood with his hands behind his back.

"What's the good thing?" Tan Feiqi asked abruptly.

"Ahem." Zhao Yang fooled around.

Started to arrange people to do things.

The cabinet ministers and a group of old men knew at a glance that even Zhao Yang didn't know why His Majesty agreed to this decision.

But they couldn't think of it, so they didn't think about it for the time being.

The next day.

This matter was passed on to Ke Wu who was cultivating himself at home. Ke Wu raised his eyebrows, and immediately began to think about this matter back and forth, pondering the emperor's deep meaning.

But nothing came to mind.

…………

This matter was on the agenda, and the location of the first martial arts test was in Bauhinia City.

The news is out.

It caused waves in the martial arts world.

"The imperial examination for warriors? This... means that if you get a good rank, can you become a general?"

"Ah? I thought joining the army was going to report to the relevant department, so can I also join the army?"

"I don't know..."

"Anyway, I don't want to join the army, we just have such a small life, just goof around, drink and eat meat."

"Yeah, isn't it better to be unrestrained in the rivers and lakes than to fight for your life in the battlefield?"

Many warriors retreated.

It can only be said that the area of ​​ideological awareness still needs to be developed.

And as a lot of money in the treasury flowed out, the martial arts was also implemented very quickly.

After all, the cabinet is to assist the emperor, and the current cabinet is united as one and has not engaged in infighting, so it has also spent thought on improving the martial arts system.

If all goes well, in mid-April, the first martial arts can be held in Bauhinia City.

But also at this time.

News came from Jinyiwei in the coastal area.

Because the little leader of the local Jinyiwei judged that this matter was quite abnormal.

A large amount of land along the coast was purchased by local merchants.

And it's very large.

When Jin Yiwei first heard the news, he thought that the local tyrants were plundering and plundering people, forcing farmers to sell their fields.

I, Jin Yiwei, are at my peak right now, dare to engage in such a small trick? !

Check the results.

The royal guards were stunned.

Because it's true.

Local wealthy people bought a large amount of land at ten times the price of the field.

All follow the normal process.
