"Ministry of Reform?" When this department was listed in Chen State, the entire Xu State was shocked, even the envoys of Cai State and Song State were shocked. Damn it, look what is going on. This time, the envoys did not win over their friends. Instead, they saw Chen Guo leaning in the direction of Xu Guo. This immediately made the ambassadors of the two countries "eclipse their beauty" and pee. Go back to your own country, it's terrible. In fact, the biggest headache was Nangong Zhi himself. Because he had to preside over the reform, his position suddenly became much more embarrassing. Even though at the court meeting, everyone agreed readily, but when it came time to actually implement it, everyone could always find reasons to stall. After all, Xu Guo has completely revolutionized and all obstacles have been eliminated long ago, and Chen Guo's reform is to scrape his own bones. Although everyone knows that scraping bones is good for healing wounds, it hurts! Screaming in pain! You want to lose my interests, that Haha The weather is good today, look at the dark clouds rolling in different patterns Now Nangong Zhi is caught in the middle and suffers from both ends. Once the reform is completed, it will "definitely" be rejected by the nobles, "maybe" it will be rewarded by the king, and "maybe" the birds will be wiped out and the bows hidden. If the reform failed, haha And something that really made Nangong Zhi furious happened in a short period of time. Nangong Zhi personally took the lead in the reform and liberated all the slaves in his territory; but when individual slaves walked out of Nangong After Zhi's territory, the surrounding nobles took action! They actually want to capture the escaped slaves! Slaves all have some tattoos on their bodies, making them easy to identify! "Wow" The precious jasper pot fell to pieces on the ground. Nangong Zhi was really trembling with anger at this time. "Sir Your Excellency" Several officials and soldiers beside him suddenly became cautious. Nangong Zhi was furious and murderous. As a commander, killing people sincerely was nothing. "Send the order. According to the laws of the country, those who arrest civilians privately will be killed!" "Yes!" Nangong Zhi followed the soldiers and immediately went out to send the order. Looking at the officials with twinkling eyes and the reports from all over the country, Nangong Zhi suddenly understood what Xiao Hao said. Of course, Xiao Hao was not so kind as to tell Nangong Zhi. It can evolve peacefully; but instead, it keeps telling Nangong Zhi that there is no hope unless he rebels, and your butt determines your head. And Nangong Zhi understood the last sentence very deeply: the butt determines the head! "Since the head is determined by the butt, what's the use of such a head? Kill!" On the execution ground, Nangong Zhi personally supervised the law enforcement. A row of more than a dozen barons and viscounts were detained and awaited execution. These few little nobles. They are those "talents" who "catch runaway slaves." "Nangong Zhi, are you going to rebel? You actually want to kill the nobles! Do you know what you are doing!" "Nangong Zhi, won't you leave yourself a way out?" "Nangong Zhi, according to the laws of the country, Even if these nobles die, they should not be judged by you, but should be judged by their nobles." Nangong Zhi looked at the ugly faces of each of them and ordered coldly, "The time is up, kill! " "Pfft" Several executioners who were transferred from their own army slashed mercilessly, and suddenly more than a dozen heads rolled around on the ground. "Nangong Zhi, you are seeking death!" The nobles walked away angrily. "Good!" the civilians cheered. It's just that their cheers don't come from change, but from a kind of fun-loving mood: Oops. The dead nobleman is so rare! Nangong Zhi watched coldly, and suddenly closed his eyes tiredly; when he personally carried out the reform. My understanding of Xiao Hao's words became more and more profound: The physique of the nobles is not bad, but it must be restricted; but in the current human world, the nobles have become the heaviest shackles on civilization! If you want to reform, you must break this shackles! But breaking the shackles is not easy, the nobles hold powerful military power in their hands! And many nobles have bronze tripods of luck that have been accumulated and passed down from generation to generation. If they get anxious, these nobles will definitely turn into poisonous snakes and tigers. The reform has just begun. It¡¯s impossible to continue! Nangong Zhi closed his eyes tiredly, and his gray hair swayed feebly in the wind. Quite a bit drifting. Suddenly, Nangong Zhi opened his eyes. His eyes were like sharp swords, "Anyway, I have offended many nobles, so let's offend one completely! Anyone who dares to stop my steps will be killed!" Nangong Zhi is the commander-in-chief who leads the army after all, not the weak scholar before Ziqi Dongsheng. At that time, the Chen Kingdom was in a state of turmoil. Countless young nobles¡¯ heads fell to the ground, and countless middle- and high-level nobles began to tremble! As a high-ranking king, the king of Chen State never said a word about this, but the army was gathering. A heavy atmosphere spread in Chen's country, althoughThe commercial law was passed, but the merchants did not dare to go out; although the slaves were freed, the slaves did not dare to leave the manor! Nangong Zhi almost used his own power to fight against the entire old aristocratic system. The pressure can be imagined; and the turmoil in Xu Kingdom is also more obvious! At this moment, Beifang, Xuguo, Xiao Hao looked at the information in their hands, and laughed with Lan Hai and others. "Your Majesty has taken a great step!" Lan Hai also had to say a few good words, "At this time, Chen State has too much to take care of itself. We can fight with Cai State and Song State with peace of mind." "Hehe" Xiao Hao was proud. With a smile, she turned to look at Xiang'er, "Sister Xiang'er, please tell me that when educating the elites of Chen State, you should also teach them some basic weapons-making methods. Of course, you don't need gunpowder. But some throwing stones Machines, crossbows, etc., don¡¯t be stingy. I wonder what the civilians in our southern neighbors will do when they have such weapons.¡± In today¡¯s Xu Country, there are already quite a few women because of Xiao Hao. He began to enter the officialdom and took advantage in some places that men could not match. Such as education, medical care, and some industries that require careful attention. In just half a year, everyone in Xuguo has accepted this change. In particular, a large number of female teachers were appointed, and they also received strong support from some powerful women from the Mohists and Han Zong Legalists. Under Xiao Hao¡¯s instigation, Yang Sheng¡¯s wife Qin Hongxia came forward on behalf of the medical family and cooperated with Xu Guo to establish the first women¡¯s medical school. The medical family was also officially pulled onto the carriage by Xiao Hao and gained a foothold in Xu Country. With the first representative, Qin Huairen, a medical elite whom Xiao Hao was relatively familiar with at the beginning, soon came to Xuguo and presided over the construction of medicine and other aspects in Xuguo. And under the existing basic conditions of Xuguo, it is very suitable for the development and research of medicine; especially because of the development of the ideological enlightenment movement in Xuguo. Anatomy began to thaw in terms of moral and social recognition, allowing doctors to develop very rapidly here in Xuguo. Of course, although the medical family is large, they themselves are not political. The Han Zong Legalists and Mohists do not reject the joining of medical families, but welcome them very much. With the continuous development of the Xuguo ideological enlightenment movement, Liu Yafeng of the painter school came. This loyal master who had firmly sided with Xiao Hao in the fight to the death and represented the school of painters came to Xu Country to look for opportunities and trials. Of course, everyone was happy with the result. In particular, Xiao Hao also talked about a lot of painting techniques. Of course, the painting methods from another world are not as developed here as they have been for tens of thousands of years. With the support of specialized schools, people can even make mountain and river scrolls. Yes; but some ideas from another world. It also had a lot of impact on Liu Yafeng. A few simple words opened Liu Yafeng's ideological shackles, and even allowed Liu Yafeng to touch the level of the sun and the moon. ?????????????????????????????????Subsequently, various schools of music, weapon forging, businessmen, military, intrigues, pure scholarship, etc. began to come to Xu Kingdom to see the changes here. Xu Guo's ideological enlightenment movement began to spread unknowingly. The result of the spread is that the Za family and the Li Zongfa family are anxious! They urgently organized the controllable forces of Song and Cai to form a coalition, preparing to go south to attack, or try to prevent the development of Xu. As an opponent. Of course, Zajia and Li Zongfa do not want Xuguo to develop too fast; but on the other hand, they are learning from Xuguo's development ideas and developing their own 'Fengguo'! "These bastards have no grace at all!" Han Changling really looked down on the behavior of the Za family and the Li Zongfa family. "The face of the best people in the world has been lost to them a long time ago!" Xiao Hao, on the other hand, took his time. , without panic: "Elder, don't get angry, these guys definitely don't know our plan! Use external pressure to completely complete the internal integration. I want to build Xuguo into a flawless piece of jade, and then I can form a powerful fist to conquer the world. ! As for Fengguo. Hehe, don¡¯t worry. This governance of the world is not as simple as the unilateral development of schools; obviously, the Zajia and Li Zong Legalists have not mastered the core of the governance of the world. The Zajia family and the Li Zongfa family actually want to be compatible with the aristocratic and civilian systems. If you want to become fat in one bite, you won't be afraid of choking to death! I don't doubt the ability of the Zajia family and the Li Zongfa family to govern the country, but most of their ability to govern the country is in the past. Fundamentally speaking, they have gone astray, and it will only get worse in the future! It is a good idea to draw a scoop from a gourd, but how can the scoop drawn by sawing the gourd be as practical as the scoop obtained by sawing the gourd open? Let them learn! In order to let them learn. A country that directly learns from others will never become a strong country. Instead, it will lead to constant domestic conflicts. The final result will be a mess, nothing, and even the things they once owned will be thrown away. " "There is such a thing. Country? "Blue Ocean is not so easy to fool.""Ahem I'm just making a metaphor." Xiao Hao looked embarrassed. He just spoke too fast and accidentally overdid it. "Now the coalition forces of Song and Cai have begun to gather. It is expected that the training will be completed in three months at most. They will be able to counterattack us in early autumn of this year. Do we need to prepare for this?" Xiao Yuantang also spoke next to him. "Three months? They still don't know if they have the power to attack after three months!" Before Xiao Hao could speak, Lan Hai began to sneer, "Now we receive more than 100,000 people from Song and Cai almost every day Population, cities are surrendering every day. In three months, most of their territory will be lost. In other words, they will not wait for three months to attack, maybe they will attack now. Of course, this is from a politician. From a military perspective, you can consider it yourself. My opinion is only for reference." Xiao Haiyun thought for a moment before shaking his head, "No, you are right! Moreover, the senior officials of Song and Cai have already been taken over by Zajia and Li. The patriarchal clan is under direct or indirect control. They have already been helpless. Maybe they will send troops at the next moment, and they don't care about the life or death of the soldiers, or even winning or losing. As long as they can hold us back, it will be their greatest success! At that time, those nobles could have fled to another place and continued to live a luxurious life! No, we cannot let them remain stable like this. We must carry out information propaganda war behind enemy lines to prevent the enemy's soldiers from fighting or even rebelling!" "Rebellion is not necessarily easy! Okay! After all, they are all soldiers, and it is very difficult for them to rebel. Moreover, they are not capable enough," Xiao Hao said at this time, "But what we can do is to publicize information and tell them that as long as we meet on the battlefield. , If they surrender without resistance, they will receive preferential treatment from us. What do you think if those soldiers suddenly drop their weapons and surrender? What will happen to those nobles who can only rebel now? The picture is very satisfying; and if we can capture all these nobles and generals on the frontal battlefield, then we can gain control of the two countries in a very short time, and finally swallow it up. Sometimes, we need to let go. In the long term, we should not be impatient. As long as we can swallow these two countries in one go, it will be enough to scare and shock the surrounding countries and make them dare not act rashly. We can at least obtain a good development environment. This does not take too long, it only takes ten years. Of course, if possible, I hope it will be more than 30 years! Xu Guo now has the foundation, but it still needs time to develop. After all, we are new in politics, and so are the countries around us. It will make us nervous or even afraid." Lan Hai thought for a while and had to nod, "Yes. We should do this to make the people around us afraid to reach out, so that we can get enough time to develop. Use both force and psychology to conquer the enemy!" "Now that the goal has been decided, let's do it." After Xiao Hao agreed calmly, he walked out with his hands behind his back. This is the current Xuguo. Xiao Hao only cares about the general direction, and Xiao Hao basically doesn't care about the details. Unless something goes wrong. And such full delegation of power does not mean that Xiao Hao's influence is decreasing. Quite the opposite. Here in Xuguo, Xiao Hao is regarded as a great sage who saves the suffering! Just when Xuguo started to mobilize troops, a full 500,000 troops were dispatched from the northwest! Just as Lan Hai expected, Song and Cai had no time to train these soldiers. But Song and Cai also had a method, which was to send military observers to each other, protons, and especially exchange royal descendants to ensure union. The army of 500,000 people is not a fictitious number this time, but a real army of 500,000 people, not including the Huotou Army, logistics, etc. The overall number has exceeded 1.5 million! This is a real war. Song and Cai have completely taken out their wealth and are ready to destroy Xu in one fell swoop. Even for this purpose, Song and Cai also negotiated with the countries around them to withdraw all the soldiers guarding the border. At any time, the soldiers guarding the border are basically representatives of the elite, even here. The surrounding countries are actually aristocratic, and everyone is afraid of Xu Kingdom's expansion here, and they don't want to lose their status, wealth and rights; under the threat of Xu Kingdom's sudden and strong rise, coupled with the warnings of the family and Li Zongfa's family, Several surrounding countries also reluctantly accepted the reality. Although they did not send troops directly, they took action indirectly. At least they withdrew the soldiers at the border and even sold grain to Song and Cai. 500,000 troops, with a total of more than 1.5 million troops, are heading straight towards Xu Kingdom. The attack location is in the northwest. The defense here is not very good for the time being. subject to mountainsDue to the obstruction of the district, Xuguo's construction here was incomplete. These guys are also very smart. They don't attack important places in Xuguo. Instead, they attack some unimportant places in order to get one or two victories to boost their morale. This abacus is very well done, very beautiful! But they didn¡¯t know that as soon as they received the situation, Xu Guo launched a shameless tactic, and it was also a series of combination punches. When they started to set off, the sand buried by Xuguo began to work. They quietly circulated various information, etc. The general situation of these information was: Look at how hard we are, working hard for these nobles, in the end What arrived? He dies, his wife and children are separated, and the family is destroyed! And our limited compensation. They were also deducted at every turn. Then let¡¯s look at the country of Xu, which has monuments to heroes, clear politics, and no aristocracy! For us, Xuguo is our destination. When we arrive at the battlefield, we can just surrender; of course, don't rebel now. We can't resist. The nobles have sacrifices and magical powers, which we don't have. If you are really moved, then tell more people and save more families. What? Do you still want some advice? Well, think about it, when these noble old men ask us to fight desperately at the front. What are they doing? Those aristocratic old men are exercising their political power. What? Are you a nobleman, not a mud-legged person? Haha, it¡¯s so ridiculous. Look, your life is not as good as that of a farmer in Xu Country. At least in Xu Country, you can have your own dignity! ??Okay, just a few words. All the anger and numbness was instantly ignited; rumors began to spread at an unprecedented speed; and the most important thing was that because of the "strategists", these people's actions were not discovered at the beginning; and when the nobles and generals discovered it, At least 100,000 of the 500,000-strong army must have known about it, and I don¡¯t know how many have vaguely heard various rumors! In fact, the power of the masses is great. An army of 100,000 turned into more than 300,000 the next day! This is a simple geometric multiples problem. At this time, Song and Cai were on the verge of firing. Although they knew that the problem with these soldiers must be a good thing of Xu Guo, they didn't have much time to save them, so they couldn't kill all the more than 100,000 soldiers. Maybe they didn't expect how serious this matter would be, and the remedial measures were just to increase the food, increase the bonus, and make a few verbal promises, which the nobles were very familiar with. The mighty army finally arrived at Xuguo¡¯s territory a few months ago. The place here is still the country of Song or Cai. "That's not right, why is there no one there! It's been three hundred miles from this place!" Finally, a general from the Song Dynasty found out his doubts. "Idiot, this is obviously a clearing of the country! But it doesn't matter, let's declare the first victory." A general of Cai Guo looked askance at this sudden colleague. "How can we declare victory without killing a single enemy?! Aren't you afraid that this is the enemy's tactic to lure the enemy deeper?" "Idiot!" Cai Guo's general continued to look askance at people. "Didn't you see that we have advanced three hundred miles. We haven't seen a person, an animal, or a grain of grain. What does this mean? This means that our army is strong. The enemy has been emboldened. Xu Guo's Everyone was scared away!" "I am not as shameless as you" "That's right, you are not as smart as me! This is victory! No wonder your Song Kingdom is stronger than our Cai Kingdom and Li Kingdom combined. It's been more than five hundred years since I could cross Yanzikou! You are too stupid and have lowered the combat capability of the entire country." "Are you really looking for death?" General Song was furious. "I don't have time to play with you, I'm going to declare victory! At least it will inspire people, and it is also the best counterattack against those rumors. Idiot, stay away from me." I have to say that although this Cai Guo general is a bit unreasonable, but The idea is really good. It's a pity that he didn't see that after they entered Xu Kingdom, their rear area had been cut off! This place has a radius of five hundred miles and has been completely cleared away. Not to mention the food, even the growing food crops, vegetation, etc. have all been cleared away; all that is left here is only ashes and sand. Around them, the soldiers and generals of Xu Kingdom, and even the luck masters who belong entirely to Xu Kingdom, are ready. There is a small unspoken rule here in Dongsheng Shenzhou, that is, masters of various schools with Purple Qi Dongsheng and above do not participate in the competition between countries. There are only two exceptions: first, the hometown of a certain Zi Qi Dongsheng master is a country that is at war; second, the master of Zi Qi Dongsheng trained by that country itself. This second point is actually very difficult, because if there are good seedlings, they will basically do it. by eachThis school was quietly removed. But Xu Guo is different at this time. Strictly speaking, even Mao Yuanhui broke through the level of Sun and Moon under the guidance of Xiao Hao. In other words, Xu Guo has the ability to cultivate masters of Sun and Moon! During this period of time, due to the ideological enlightenment movement and the proper guidance of the birth and conflict of various ideas in Xu Kingdom, in the past few months, a large number of masters with purple energy have appeared in Xu Kingdom, and these masters are all treasures. Red luck. "A battlefield of 500 miles is enough for us to have a good time!" Zhang Yun, Han Sheng, Zhang Zheng, Xiao Haiyun, the main military generals of Xu Kingdom are all here. (To be continued)
