Therefore, after returning to the government office, Wang Cang convened relevant personnel to discuss specific matters, and after agreeing, and reported to Liu Qi, the Duke of Chu, for approval, it was decided to hold the first county examination half a year later, that is, in April of the tenth year of Jian'an, and the registration of scholars should start in a month at the latest, and the proposition of the examination was ordered by Yu Xuan, Sima Hui and other well-educated people, and other subjects such as military science, agricultural science, and medical science were also respectively proposed by the newly established doctors of Guozi Studies, in order to ensure that the questions would not be leaked.

Talent will definitely flourish more than any other era in history.

And as the first person to be fully responsible for the imperial examination, he will definitely be in history like the imperial examination. Brilliant for a thousand years.

For the great cause of the lord Liu Qi, for himself to be famous through the ages, and for the ambition of showing his ambition in his heart, Wang Cang has completely forgotten his fatigue. Completing everything efficiently and with high quality, seriously discussing every detail, his vigorous energy, accurate memory, meticulous thinking, and thoughtfulness made all the officials under him, and even all the officials in the entire Chu State admire.

And Wang Cang's enthusiasm also drove other officials, so the entire Chu State, even including the officials in the five states under Liu Qi's rule, were all infected by this enthusiasm, and the administrative efficiency was unprecedentedly improved, and the enthusiasm for work was unprecedentedly high. Various affairs are carried out effectively.

A month later, the work began to take shape, and the registration of students from all over the country was carried out smoothly. When Liu Qi heard that there were no less than 10,000 scholars from all over the country, he was full of pride and surprise.

At this time, the evaluation of the law of the nine products has begun to bear fruit, and at the insistence of Liu Qi, the titles of prime minister, great Sima, general and prince are regarded as the first product and the rank is ten thousand stones; Taiwei, Situ, Sikong, as well as the prince of the county and the prince of the country are from the first product, and the rank is more than ten thousand stones; Hussar generals, chariot generals, Wei generals, and county dukes, front and rear left and right generals are the second grade, and the rank is 3,000 stones;

And at this moment, Liu Qi got another piece of exciting news that Han Ji, the supervisor of metallurgy, after two years of repeated research and development, finally created the first Mo knife made of Su Iron according to Liu Qi's idea!

The shape of the Mo knife completely imitates the Tang Dynasty, it is a long-handled double-edged long knife, the handle and the blade are all made of fine iron, the total weight is more than 20 catties, it can be stabbed, it can also be chopped, it is a special weapon for infantry, the main use is to deal with the cavalry in the Central Plains and the Guanlong region, Liu Qi has been ready to fight with the cavalry before going to Yizhou, so at that time he drew a pattern, and attached a detailed description, so that Han Ji was responsible for the development of the Mo knife.

Liu Qi happily came to Han Ji's weapons supervisor and took out the Mo knife he had just created, his heart was extremely excited and excited, because with such a divine weapon, he would no longer have to worry about Cao Cao, Liu Bei and Han Sui's cavalry in the future, which was a big reliance for his own advancement in Guanlong.

Liu Qi took the Mo knife, danced it gently, and then used it to deal with the cavalry model made by Huang Yueying, and slashed lightly at the "cavalry" riding on the war horse, and saw that the "cavalry" wearing thick iron armor was easily cut into two pieces!

"Good knife, really good knife." Gently stroking the knife in his hand, Liu Qi couldn't help but praise it, and ordered a reward of five million for Han Jiqian and he was named the Marquis of Duyang Pavilion.

"Gong Zhi has been working hard for many days, constantly developing new weapons for Lonely, so that our army far surpasses the enemy in terms of equipment, it is really indispensable, a little reward to talk about comfort, but I don't know Gongzhi, if our army wants to build 10,000 Mo knives, how many times will it take? Hehe. Lone can't wait to use it on the battlefield. Liu Qi looked at Han Ji and said with a smile.

Han Ji naturally knew Liu Qi's thoughts, so he was also prepared early. He replied with a smile: "Xiaguan has long known that Duke Chu is anxious, so he has prepared in advance, and now Xiaguan has prepared millions of catties of refined iron, all of which are secretly stored in the Yicheng ironmaking base, and with the support of the lord, thousands of skilled and loyal craftsmen have been trained, and the lord has always treated craftsmen very favorably. They don't have to worry about the food and clothing of their families, so they are all loyal to their lords. Swear allegiance. According to the estimation of the lower officials, these craftsmen can produce about 100 Mo knives per day, and although 10,000 Mo knives are not small, the cost is also extremely large. But it will take us three months at most, and we will be able to produce it, and then we can quickly equip it in the army. ”

Liu Qi was immediately pleasantly surprised when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Gongzhi is really thoughtful, reassuring, hehe, even so, Lone is waiting for the good news of Gongzhi, and Lone will send someone to receive Modao three months later." It's just that this matter must be kept strictly secret, this is the latest weapon in our army, and it is a sharp weapon specially used against cavalry. In case the enemy army wins, I am afraid it will not be a blessing for our army. ”

Unexpectedly, Han Ji just smiled faintly, and then said: "Although the craftsmen are all loyal to the lord, the lower officials did not teach them the full set of techniques, but broke down the process of making zuò into eighteen processes, and each batch of craftsmen was responsible for one process. The craftsmen of each process do not interact with each other, so they do not know who is responsible for the other processes. I don't know what these eighteen processes are, and the lower officials also specially deployed manpower to strictly prevent the leakage of secrets, so we can be said to be foolproof in terms of confidentiality. ”

Liu Qi completely relieved his heart, held Han Ji's hand, and said emotionally: "Gongzhi does things without leakage, and he is really a good minister in the world, but a great talent like you is wronged by you all day long with the fire and iron pulp, which is really unbearable, and I only hate the strife and war in this world, otherwise, I will not dare to let Gongzhi suffer this grievance, please rest assured that Gongzhi will be alone, after the war is calmed down, he will definitely share the wealth with Gongzhi, if he violates this, heaven and man will abandon him." ”

But seeing Han Ji saluting respectfully to Liu Qi, he bowed again: "The lord is so kind to his subordinates, and his subordinates die and can't repay it in case, what is the reason for this hard work?" What's more, the lower official has no great ambitions, Su Xi and the furnace fire as a companion, to create a magical weapon, to contribute to the pacification of the world by our army, hehe, to say a selfish word, when the people of later generations evaluate the prosperity of the lord created by the lord, they must also mention these weapons and equipment created by the lower official, the lower official through the genius of the lord, but can leave a name in history, it is a great blessing. ”

Liu Qi smiled and comforted Han Ji again, and the relationship between the monarch and the minister became more intimate from then on, and Han Ji was grateful for Liu Qi's kindness, and since then he has done his best to do things, making extremely important contributions to Liu Qi's great cause.

Liu Qi did not remain idle after leaving the ordnance prison, and immediately ordered Fu Wei to select 10,000 elite soldiers from the counties and counties of Jingyang, especially the garrisons of Xiangyang and Danyang, to form a new Modao team, so that they must complete the task within three months, and reorganize the army, so that this army can be as strict as the Praetorian Guard, and truly achieve "its speed is like the wind, its Xu is like a forest, the invasion is like fire, and it is not moving like a mountain."

After several years of military career, Zhang Tong has now been reborn, whether it is the changes on the battlefield or his personal prime, he is not weaker than the famous generals of the world, plus he is the cousin of Xiao Qiao, and he is absolutely loyal to himself, so he is completely trustworthy, and let him lead the newly formed Modao team, which can be said to be completely competent.

After Zhang Tong accepted Liu Qi's order, he immediately went non-stop to select elite soldiers.

Although Zhang Tong's standards are very strict, and they are completely selected according to the standards of the elite soldiers under Wu Qi during the Warring States Period, there are still nearly 100,000 people who have signed up, because they all know that as an elite soldier by the side of the Duke of Chu, it is their supreme glory, and even the surrounding relatives will be revered.

"Half a month later, the assessment will be conducted in the Xiangyang Xiying Schoolyard, and only the best 10,000 people can join Chu Gong's pro-soldier team, and the minimum standard for this 10,000 people is to pass the assessment of the guò martial arts system, if the assessment is not passed, we would rather lack than abuse."

Zhang Tong's proclamation made many sergeants enthusiastic in their hearts, and they all trained desperately, quietly waiting for the day when the assessment came.
