0270: Li Yi's Argument
In March, some people in Xingyang once again raised an incident under the banner of the Yellow Turban Army, but soon, they were suppressed by the army led by He Miao in Henan, and with this merit, Emperor Liu Hong worshiped He Miao as a general of the chariot cavalry. Obviously, among them, Zhang Rang and He Jin's actions are indispensable.
In Bingzhou, Tong Fei replaced his deceased father Tong Yuan, held a crown ceremony for Zhang Ren, who had just turned 20, and personally took the letter for him. And Li Yi also gave Zhang Ren, who had just become an adult, a gift, that is, to make him his master bookkeeper and assist him in handling government affairs.
Originally, this position should have been Xiahoulan and Zhang Meng, but these two had been with Li Yi for a while, and they were already serving as county magistrates at this time. As a substitute, Zhang Ren is obviously the best choice for Li Yi today. And Li Yi's purpose is also very clear, that is, to cultivate Zhang Ren in the shortest possible time, and then throw him to the place to practice.
He didn't remember when Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty died, and he had long forgotten when Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, but he knew that his time was getting less and less. Sometimes, Li Yi felt that he should apply for transfer to Jizhou, Yuzhou, and other places where there are countless talents.
However, this idea was quickly cut off by Li Yi, on the one hand, it was impossible for the imperial court to let Li Yi be a Jizhou pastor or a Yuzhou pastor. Not to mention whether the Spirit Emperor Liu Hong would agree or not, it was impossible for those scholars, eunuchs, relatives and others to agree. Because these two places are full of families, all kinds of interests have long been divided, unless Li Yi used to be a nominal state pastor, but obviously, Li Yi is unlikely to be willing.
On the other hand, Li Yi was in Bingzhou, and led nearly 100,000 troops in the entire Bingzhou, including 30,000 flying cavalry battalions and 10,000 trapped camps. But in this regard, the imperial court will not have any worries at all, and the reason is very simple, the money, food, and equipment to support these troops are all provided by the imperial court. If Li Yi dared to rebel, as long as the imperial court cut off the supply and strictly defended the border, it would not take a few years for Li Yi's troops to be basically finished.
But if Li Yi had such rights and troops in Yuzhou or Jizhou, I am afraid that Liu Hong would have found an excuse to transfer away.
However, although there are not many talents in the state, Li Yi is not discouraged. "If you can't find it, then cultivate it yourself!" Li Yi thought so, so he once again took out the [Li Yi's Art of War] written in the past and improved it, and added a lot of governance places to it, as well as all the knowledge that he felt as a courtier with both civil and military skills should understand.
I have to say that Li Yi really took great pains in cultivating Lu Bu and others, but Li Yi was also very helpless in this regard. After all, everyone is already under his command, if he is not stronger than them in history, wouldn't he have followed him so early in vain? And if it is worse than history, then Li Yi has no place to cry.
At the same time, the book was renamed "Li Yi's Brief Treatise", as the name suggests, it is Li Yi's article that analyzes and clarifies the truth of things. Well, Li Yi was still going to give this book a noble name, such as Li Gong's theory of governing the country and something like that, but thinking of the scene where he was teased by Cai Yan before, he felt that it was better to take a more low-key name, and even deliberately added a light word for this.
Just writing and writing, he suddenly thought of a very important question, that is, how to turn this [Li Yiqian's Treatise] into a book for everyone. Before, he was writing completely by himself, after all, there were not many people under him, and the so-called Li Yi's Art of War did not have much content. But if you want to write from the military to the governance of the locality, and even add some private goods that govern the country and even serve him Li Yi, it will be a long story. If everything is copied by Li Yi, it will take a month.
It doesn't sound like a long time, but Li Yi thought of some more questions, such as what to do if he wants to increase the length in the future? What should I do if I have too many people? What if you want to show it to the people? Looking for someone to help with the copying? How can a person who can recognize so many words, and can also write a beautiful hand, do such a rough job.
"Movable type printing?" Such a thought popped up in Li Yi's mind, and then he was out of control, "Yes! Movable type printing, even if it can only be used at present, but as long as you study it, I believe that it can be copied on it, and it can be directly printed on various fabrics......"
The more Li Yi thought about it, the more excited he became, but when he was about to call someone to ask the carpenter to help engrave the living seal, he suddenly dispelled this idea. "Alas, it's not the time yet...... Li Yi sighed helplessly.
What is the most precious thing in this era? Talent? Population? Economy? Wrong, it's knowledge! Why is the power of the family so strong in this era, the reason is simple, the monopoly of knowledge!
In Li Yi's youth, if it weren't for Li Yan himself being a descendant of the Li family, and he had a good relationship with Guo Hong and others, he could only be an honest martial artist, because there were no books to learn from him. And this is also the reason why all ordinary people and even the children of poor families have a way out only by joining the army in their careers, because you don't have enough knowledge, how can you defeat those children of the family in politics?
If movable type printing is done at this time, there is no need to think about it, Li Yi will definitely be hit by many families until he perishes. Because this is the real big killer, what bilateral stirrups were compared to this thing, they were weak at all.
And in fact, there are several such big killer weapons Li Yi, all of which are good things that can't be taken out because the time has not come. Only when the world is in chaos can Li Yi take out these things. At the same time, these big killers are also one of the reasons why Li Yi chose to develop in Bingzhou, because compared to other places, Bingzhou does not have so many powerful families, only the Taiyuan Guo family and the Wang family also have a good relationship with Li Yi.
"Alas, then you can only copy it......" Li Yi sighed helplessly.
At this moment, a voice came in, "Gentleman, let's have a cup of tea~" but it was Cai Yan. She walked in slowly, and after putting the tray aside, she immediately saw Li Yi writing, "Gentleman, could it be that you are writing Li Yi's Art of War again?" Cai Yan covered his mouth and snickered.
"Ahem! Changed its name! It's called Li Yiqian's Theory! That's all right, right? Li Yi coughed dryly twice and said helplessly.
Hearing this, Cai Yan picked up Jian Ce on the table and looked at it, nodded for a long time, nodded and responded, "This name is really good, there is no profound truth, it is all simple and practical knowledge." ”
"Hey, is that really good?" Li Yi thought speechlessly.
But then, Cai Yan said again, "The gentleman thinks it's going to be sent to Feng Xian and the others, right?" In this case, why don't you come together with the concubine and Qing'er to help copy it? It just so happened that Qing'er was also practicing calligraphy. ”
"That's for the best!" Li Yi was overjoyed when he heard this.
