Chapter 48: The War Without Gunpowder

To be the enemy of the scholars, such a bold ambition is to say it, but Li Chengzong is not arrogant, he understands that the strength of one person is not enough, but he still has people who are as like-minded as himself. As long as there are more and more of them, it becomes a contest between two groups of old and new readers. As long as the force is strong enough, the places controlled are enough, and the number of people who can read simplified Chinese characters in pinyin is enough, they can also turn over those old-fashioned readers.

Even if you don't talk about the history of later generations, from ancient times to the present, the high-ranking Confucian disciples have not been overturned. This is evidenced by the fact that the barbarian nomads of the northern steppes have repeatedly been able to defeat the Confucian dynasty of the Central Plains.

Hmph, he Li Chengzong doesn't believe it anymore, and he can't govern the country without Confucian scholars? Without Zhang Butcher, you can't eat hairy pigs?? Don't look at Confucianism itself boasting that it is the study of governing the world and the truth of the world, but to tell the truth, as long as an emperor still wants to make a difference, then he will not listen to them foolishly, if you really believe in their set, then it is not far from decline, Emperor Yuan of the Han Dynasty is an excellent example........

After Li Chengzong talked to the old man Wang about the uselessness of scholars, the old man trembled and shouted heresy, saying that Li Chengzong did not respect Confucius and Mencius, and it was a great rebellion to underestimate the power of scholars, and also said that Jinyiwei was a bunch of bad people, and what a sacred thing it was to learn to read and write, how could he let the lowly people manipulate........ Anyway, the transcendent status of literati cannot be abolished, otherwise they literati will .......

How could Lee Seung-jong compromise and what are you kidding? If you follow you, why would Lao Tzu break away from Li Tang and stand on his own, wouldn't it be better to go directly to find a way to seek the position of the emperor's grandson? Isn't it that Lao Tzu doesn't want to go along with you and want to paint a new painting of his own on the hot land of China?

After the old man left angrily, Li Chengzong looked at Yang Rong helplessly, "These literati, I'm so angry, these so-called scholars, open their mouths to Confucius and Mencius saints, shut up about morality and filial piety........ These lords who show up all day long, foaming at the stars, are struggling in Vanity Fair, and it is difficult to calm down to cultivate themselves and join the family, so in the end, if they don't cultivate, they will talk nonsense, and if they don't have a good family, they will be in chaos in the backyard. ”

"Oh, my king, you're scared??? Aren't they just some feudal literati? These sour and rotten literati are just like the common knowledge of our time, Mr. Morality, hum, isn't it that I can be immoral, but you must be moral, I can act recklessly, and want to do everything I want, but you have to endure it, because I am an apprentice of Confucius and Mencius, a son of a saint? To put it bluntly, your simplified characters and Hanyu Pinyin scheme, as well as the popularization of knowledge, have touched the interests of these people. They will soon criticize the two of us from a moral standpoint, you wait and see......" Yang Rong is Li Chengzong's lover and bosom friend, and she is the only one in the world who understands Li Chengzong.

"Afraid? I'm afraid of a fart, people who are soldiers never know what they are afraid of, and I don't deny that there are a lot of good people in this literati, but this class, I really can't stay, as a standard industrial party, they are my biggest enemy, I always think that these sour talents will never take the pursuit of justice, fairness, and truth as their own responsibility, as long as they have the opportunity, they will fabricate all kinds of fallacies to satisfy their poor desires. Know. The collective unscrupulousness of the elements, the collective to fool the people as their own responsibility, to be an accomplice of power in exchange for the scraps of cold fire, is the ancient China can not achieve humanistic progress and from the sublimation of technology to the root of scientific and technological progress, Rongrong, this is a war without gunpowder, we must win, otherwise there will really be no place to die, but I am now unskilled, too busy, this battle for public opinion, you do it, how about it? Li Chengzong planned to let his wife take the lead to repel the attack of the feudal literati.

"Hmph, I'm the only one who can step on the same drum with you, but I hope that I won't be written as Cixi in the history books in the future........ Grandpa Mao once said, who is our enemy? Who are our friends? This question is the first question of the revolution. The basic reason for the ineffectiveness of all the revolutionary struggles in China in the past was that it could not unite real friends in order to attack real enemies. The revolutionary party is the guide of the masses, and in the revolution there is no revolutionary party that leads the wrong way and the revolution does not fail. Our revolution must be sure of success without taking the wrong path, and we must take care to unite our true friends against our real enemies. What do you realize from this sentence? "Yang Rong is a top student in history, and she knows Grandpa Mao's set very well.

"Test me, don't you? Although you and I are now from Tianhuang noble backgrounds, we all understand that the family gate lords and the scholar class are unreliable, if they are reliable, the sows will go up the tree, and you and I can only rely on those who are looked down upon....... Li Chengzong said.

"Yes, all we can rely on are the craftsmen, farmers, merchants, and more than 100,000 loyal soldiers under your rule. Instead of any family and Confucian and Mencian people, I suggest that you set up a propaganda department to guide the people under our rule, as long as the people are of the same mind as us, their threat is nothing....." Yang Rong said in an affirmative tone.

"Propaganda department? What is the name of the Department of Missions? You came to serve as the first missionary secretary of the Han Kingdom, but you suffered from you, and you have to do things for me with a big belly Alas......" Looking at his beloved wife's big belly, Li Chengzong's tone was full of doting.

"Giggles, since the wife of Shang Wang Wuding, there has not been a woman to be such a high-ranking official as Shangshu, are you going to challenge the world? ? Aren't you afraid that they will say that my hen crows? Yang Rong made a little joke with Li Chengzong.

"What are you afraid of? Whoever dares to say that, I will kill his head! Li Chengzong said murderously.

"Ah Wei, don't worry, I know no less than you about this way, not to mention that this mission department is a sharp weapon to win people's hearts, how can it be mastered by others? As for having a big belly, it's not a good thing for you to do?? Yang Rong gave Li Chengzong an extremely charming look, which made Li Chengzong almost lose his mind.

"Don't worry, I noticed this when you were fighting before, I already have a preliminary list of candidates for the Mission Department, I just need to set up a fight, and the rest is their business, but the Mission Department needs your Jinyi Guard to cooperate, otherwise it will ......." Yang Rong continued.

"Jin Yiwei? Easy to do! I give an order to Song Zhong of Jinyiwei to fully cooperate with the work of your mission department......." Li Chengzong said decisively.

After the two discussed, the Han government system added a new organization, the Propaganda Department, and unexpectedly this mission department was actually pinched in the palm of Li Chengzong's wife, Yang Rong, the queen of Han.......
