"The goal is to do everything possible to improve the national strength of the Zhou State, whether it is in terms of economy, culture, military strength, and logistics, to do all of these to the best of the best, and then you can start to prepare."

Ji Fa also saw that in terms of culture, the people of the Healer School and the Witchcraft School united the people of the Zhou Kingdom, and then he began to have a bottom in his heart, he used to feel that the crusade against the Shang Kingdom was far away, but now he saw that the hearts of the people were gradually united. At this time, he gradually began to have new hope.

"If the historical trend of the crusade against the Shang Kingdom cannot be stopped, then this day will eventually come, and no one can stop it, some can only delay and delay, in this case, it is better to prepare early and be able to take the initiative to attack." Ji Fa thought of this.

Ji Fa drew his sword, then stared at the scabbard and said, "Since this day is coming, then come quickly." ”

"Stab" The long sword came out of its scabbard, and Ji Fa raised his sword and waved it to show his determination.

Immediately afterwards, Ji Fa came to the council hall and renamed it the council hall.

Then Ji Fa considered all aspects of Zhou Guo and began to have room for improvement.

Ji Fa thought about it for a long time, first of all, from the cultural development of the Zhou Kingdom.

"I remember that in my previous era, the period recorded that I am in now belongs to the pre-Zhou period, so if the culture is calculated according to this, it should be regarded as the pre-Zhou culture."

Ji Fa suddenly had a good idea, since he wanted to understand the current cultural situation of the Zhou Kingdom, why not find the ministers of the Ministry of Rites, who were in charge of cultural classics, to understand the situation, and also learn some things about the previous dynasty.

"Come on, please come over from the Ministry of Rites." Ji Fa said majestically.

Then the Ministry of Rites and Classics hurried over, and after worshipping Ji Fa, Ji Fa asked him to sit down next to him, and began to express his meaning, and then the Ministry of Rites and Classics sorted out his thoughts, and then began to slowly come.

After listening to his statement, Ji Fa only felt that the historical King Wen of Zhou was too far-sighted, and he knew that the great cause of cutting down was not something that his generation could accomplish, but that it would take the efforts of two generations to finally succeed.

So he has been preparing and paving the way since his time, you must know that when the Zhou State first started, it could only be called a small state, and compared with the "behemoth" that the Shang State had developed for many years, it was not just a trivial matter, but a huge gap.

But why did King Wen of Zhou insist on creating such systems? This is very thought-provoking, the minister of the Ministry of Rites is explaining the deeds, and Ji Fa is thinking about these questions.

"From an economic point of view, this Zhou country is an agricultural and pastoral economy, so the culture is naturally developed from the agricultural and animal husbandry culture, after such a long period of Sinicization development, the people gradually adapted to the culture of farming, and then established etiquette, and then became the cornerstone of cultural development." Ji Fa thought in his heart.

"After analyzing it in this way, I feel that the Zhou ritual system established by King Wen of Zhou is really a culture created by the ancients, which has also become a model for later generations, because with the Zhou rites, the dynasties of later generations basically followed this method."

Thinking of this, Ji Fa couldn't help but be secretly happy in his heart, he had supported the development of the witchcraft sect before, let their sect develop and learn etiquette, and then spread it to the whole country, now it seems to be advantageous and the right direction of development, judging from the responses from all aspects, this can be proved.

"In the future, we must strengthen this belief in development and determine the promotion and development of etiquette as a national policy." Ji Fa secretly made up his mind.

Immediately after that, the ministers of the Ministry of Rites began to speak again, and Ji Fa came up with a series of policies.

So after Ji Fagong went out with the ministers of the gift department, he began to pick up the pen and write it down.

In the recruitment of talents in the Zhou Kingdom, Ji Fa thought of a clever plan, he sent Xizuo to investigate, and three days later, the news came.

"Report to the king, after many investigations, found two pieces of information, the first is not far from Qiyi, Yu and Rui, because of the conflict over land, on the other hand, Xin Jia, as the minister of the Shang State, a total of seventy-five times to the king of Shang, and the king of Shang did not listen, Xin Jia was very disappointed."

After going down, Ji Fa thought about it carefully.

"I didn't expect that although the country is small, but there are a lot of things, since this is the case, then invite them to come to our Zhou country to have a look, and then the matter will be easily solved, wait for me to repair a book, and send it to the two monarchs."

Ji Fa quickly ordered someone to write a letter, because although he knew the words of this era, but then he thought about it, basically the monarch wrote a letter by himself first, and then ordered someone to write a beautiful letter, and after transcribing it twice, he ordered someone to send it, so he didn't care, whether he had written it by his own hand, anyway, after he was in this body, he knew the words of this era, and also inherited the memory and knowledge of the body, so it was not difficult to understand.

Ji Fa watched the letter and sent it out, and soon the kings of Yu and Rui received the letter, and then the people of Yu and Rui learned what Ji Fa meant.

"Recently, I heard that there was some unpleasantness between the two countries, as the nearby Zhou State expressed its great sadness, and was willing to invite the two kings to come to Zhoudi, and then Lone tried to solve the contradictions and problems between your two countries.

The monarchs of Yu and Rui, after receiving the letter, immediately set off for Zhou after arranging the domestic affairs, on the one hand, because of the authority of the king of Zhou, on the other hand, because of the wisdom of the king of Zhou, which has long been spread far and wide, they have heard of the wisdom of Ji Fa, so they also want to see what the Zhou land under the rule of King Wu of Zhou is like.

So the kings of Yu and Rui took people, and they all met in the villages on the border of Zhou, and the kings of Yu and Rui didn't care about anyone, and the people of the two countries were incompatible, but they thought that this was on the territory of Zhou, and it was not suitable for the use of force, so they broke off this idea, and planned to return to their own land, and then think about a religion.

At this time, they saw a miraculous scene in the villages on the border of Zhoudi, that is, two villages in Zhoudi, sharing a canal, and although the land was divided into owners, the people did not care at all about whose land it was, but worked together, and no matter whose it was, they cultivated it with all their hearts.

This surprised the kings of Yu and Rui.

In terms of the military development of the Zhou State, Ji Fa made modifications according to the popular military vehicles, and basically the royal decree was as follows.

"The military positions of the Zhou State are from lonely to down, there are imperial affairs, Situ, Sima, Sikong, Asian brigades, commanders, centurions, etc., although they perform their own duties, but on the whole, they all obey their own dispatches, which is the most fundamental guarantee."

"After that, all the soldiers of the Zhou State were taken care of by the people."

This point Ji Fa has far-reaching considerations, the current situation of the Zhou State, as well as the trend of historical development, slavery does exist, so he issued a release, let the slaves also follow to join the army, but as a miscellaneous servant with the army, and do not go to the battlefield in person, in this way, you can appease the slaves, and the thought of not having to go to the battlefield, these slaves may be very happy.

Immediately afterwards, Ji issued a royal order: "Integrate the soldiers of the six cities near Xiqi, gather them all, and then divide them into six armies, with 12,500 soldiers as the army and 2,500 as the division, and then the division commanders are all middle doctors, followed by 500 people as brigades, the brigade commanders are all lower doctors, and 100 people become pawns, and the pawn commander is set up, and the pawn commander is a sergeant." Twenty-five people are two, and both horses are sergeants, and every five people are called a team, and each team has a chief. ”

Immediately afterwards, Ji Fa stayed with the palace craftsmen for a few days, and had an understanding of the structure of the military chariot, and then according to his memory and the help of skilled craftsmen, the soldiers and horses of the Zhou State were greatly improved.

"Because the main type of troops in this period was the chariot soldiers, the chariots were generally ridden by three or four soldiers, and generally speaking, there must have been three soldiers wearing armor on the chariots."

Ji Fa knew that generally speaking, there must be soldiers who follow the chariot, and generally speaking, the number is not fixed, because when the actual battle starts, there is no need to distinguish so strictly, as long as the soldiers are scattered and follow the chariot, then it is fine, so it is conducive to the survival of the soldiers on the battlefield.

"It's a pity that at this time, most of the weapons are still bronze, and it seems that this is also a fact that there is no way, after all, the production process has not reached that level of maturity." Ji Fa sighed.

He originally wanted to vigorously develop iron tools, but it was very difficult, and in the end, the common people still used bronze tools the most, and they were cheaper to manufacture.

In terms of the logistics and supply of the Zhou State, Ji Fa had the most conservative method. That is tuntian and tunliang, which is the most basic operation.

After that, Ji Fa determined the purpose of developing food, as well as the purpose of logistics support, that is, to prepare for launching a crusade against the merchant country in the future.

"For this reason, it is necessary to hoard a large amount of grain, on the one hand, to meet the needs of the growing Zhou people, and on the other hand, to keep it for military rations, so as to make necessary preparations for the future war against the Shang State."

"The next step is to make a large number of armor and dry shields, and there is also the crew of the military vehicle, which must have both the halberd of Ge and the spear, plus the ability to stab and slash, so that with the matching short sword, the attack power is very good."

Ji Fa thought for a while, and thought: "It's not good to be brave alone, you also need to have both defense, after the armor and dry shield are manufactured, if you add bronze components, it is best to soak them in bronze, so that you can greatly strengthen the defense." ”

Ji Fa felt that in this way, not only the defense was enhanced, but even the weight was reduced, and the defense of the soldiers was enhanced, and the courage in the hearts of the soldiers would increase, and these armors were not only used by people, but even on the bodies of war horses, they also needed to be added, and they had to insist on the inspection of weapons and armor every day.

"Then all the drums and banners should be used to command, so that the attack can be coordinated, the movements of the soldiers can be maintained and developed into uniformity, and the ranks are also greatly ordered, and in addition, it is necessary to clearly stipulate that the soldiers who surrender will not be easily killed, so that there will be a good development."

Ji Fa felt that for the time being, these royal decrees were enough, and now it was implemented step by step, and it could have an effect, but at the moment, it could not be implemented in one go, otherwise the people would not be able to stand it, and the ministers would not be able to stand it, so it would be over.

"In this way, the first stage of the royal decree can be carried out." Ji Fa nodded at the royal decree he had sorted out.
