Speaking of this Zheng Daque's father, he really has a lot of reputation, and even the residual memories in Zhao Min's body have been heard. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

This person had a filial piety when he was young, and when he became an adult, he studied under the contemporary Confucian Ma Song, and before he left the school, he abandoned the scriptures and etiquette, and devoted himself to the study of pre-Qin etiquette, and took the restoration of Zhou etiquette as his own responsibility. In the previous dynasty, he entered the court as a master of ritual music, and at first he was a Taichang temple, and finally achieved the high position of Taichang as one of the princes, and was in charge of the world's ritual music.

However, this old man is famous and has a big temper at the same time, he is familiar with Zhou Li, and he can't tolerate sand in his eyes, but he will definitely face and reprimand him if he is out of courtesy, and even the former right man has pointed at him face to face. Such a personality is naturally unpleasant, although the former emperor has always respected him, but it has also made the ministers of the court and the central government have a deep grudge with him, including the then prince and the current son of heaven Zhao Xuan. finally waited for Zhao Ling to succeed to the throne as the Son of Heaven, but after all, this person was too famous and didn't dare to do harm, so he casually found an excuse to dismiss this old man. The old man had a straight temper, and he left without saying a word, and he didn't know which corner to hide in.

I never thought that Meng Hou would suddenly mention this person at this time, but I didn't expect that Meng Hou, a hermit in the countryside, would be too old with his predecessor? And listening to his tone, the relationship between the two should not be ordinary.

Zhao Min inevitably muttered a little in his heart. Like Zheng Da, a master of etiquette, not to mention his strange temper, even the right prime minister at the head of a hundred officials dares to face the cow, if he wants to invite such an uncle back, is it difficult to find himself unhappy? Not only did Zhao Min think so, but even Chen Zhen and the others had similar thoughts, but since it was Mr. Meng's proposal, it was not easy to refute his face, and there was a little cold at this moment.

Speaking of which, Lile actually existed from the ancient **** era, until the Zhou Dynasty formed a fairly complete system. It mainly includes morality, etiquette, education, and some aesthetic thoughts. The pre-Qin princes were in turmoil, the education of ritual music was lost, and the history of the Qin Dynasty was too short, so it was not until the establishment of the unified Xia Dynasty that the systematization of ritual music was gradually restored. After the integration and inheritance of hundreds of schools, especially Confucianism, a relatively complete system of etiquette and music was finally formed.

Originally, the content of the ritual music was under the jurisdiction of Fengchang when the Xia Dynasty was first established. After the Xia Dynasty had a six-part system, the functions and powers were gradually separated, and the part of the earlier traditional ritual music that was responsible for education was placed under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Rites, while Taichang Temple was responsible for the rituals of the temple and the music and dance of the ceremony.

Due to the fact that the traditional temple rituals contain a lot of feudal superstitions, Zhao Min himself is not interested in these Shinto things. But in this era, the study of prophecy is prevalent, and the people are generally superstitious, and they ask God to ask questions about any marriage, let alone the affairs of a country? Therefore, for all kinds of temples, rituals, and ceremonies, it attaches great importance to it, and the so-called "ritual and music prosper the country" is also. There is no way, if you don't have a good fortune and don't make a big deal about it, it will be considered ominous, and it will even affect the subsequent construction and development, so you can't ignore it. So Zhao Min had no choice but to ask Meng Hou: "I don't know where the Duke of Que is now?" He made up his mind that if this old man was too far away, he would take the long distance and waste time, and he would just not invite him.

Meng Hou pursed his lips and said: "The residence of Que Zhigong is not far away, and it is in the territory of Dongping Kingdom in Yanzhou, and he lives on the edge of Dayozawa. ”

Dongping Country? It is indeed not far, and there is only a Taishan County between it and Beihai. But I really don't want to invite this uncle back to offer it? So I had to whisper periodically: "There are a lot of mundane affairs now, why don't you discuss it after a few days?" ”

Meng Hou probably knew what everyone was thinking, so he only nodded yes and didn't dwell on this matter. Then everyone discussed some matters necessary to open the mansion, Zhao Min saw that it was not early, and he couldn't finish talking about the thousands of things in the mansion for a while, and then saw that Meng Hou was already tired, so he simply ordered everyone to rest early and discuss it tomorrow.

After everyone retreated, Zhao Min returned to the bedroom, and was about to sleep, when suddenly his heart moved, it turned out that the system that had not moved in his brain for many days finally had a new situation!

It is said that since the last time I returned from the lower secret expedition and played a lottery that was addicted to death, the system in my brain has not reacted for a long time. Coupled with the fact that all kinds of miscellaneous things have been piled up during this period of time, Zhao Min himself almost forgot about the existence of the system.

I calmed down and entered the system, but in the "mission system" in front of me, the main line "The Wind Rises" task had already flashed with a golden light representing completion. With the touch of consciousness, 200 points are in hand!

The current task system only leaves the "Jade Artifact" unfinished, but of course the tasks given by the system will not be vacant, because a new task has appeared, and the hint he just got in his mind is the induction generated by the new task. However, this time there is not only one mission, but two refreshes in succession!

The first is the main quest, which is also expected, after all, since the emergence of the system, the main quest has never been vacant, and it always appears immediately after completing one next one.

Mission Name: The Road to the Strong

Duration of the mandate: one year

Brief Description: You have finally grown to the top of the party, which is enough to prove that you are excellent. However, the emerging forces that lack strength often end up in the death of the country, and in order to avoid tragedy, you must go further on the road of strengthening the army. Increase the standing force of your forces to 50,000 within a year.

Reward: 200 points

…………

Zhao Min couldn't help but gasp. 50,000? Just kidding! What is the entire population of the entire Beihai County - no, now the Beihai Kingdom - in total? Although Zhao Min has not made specific statistics, it is roughly estimated based on past experience that it should be between 500,000 and 800,000 people. Take a median value, even if it is 650,000, if you recruit 50,000 soldiers, the ratio of soldiers to people is as high as 1:13!

What is the concept of 1:13? In those days, the peasants' productivity was low, and generally speaking, a household could dispatch two or three strong laborers, and if they had worked all year round, the final grain would have been enough to feed a family and have a slight surplus. In other words, basically one person farming is able to feed a little more than two people, including oneself. In this way, it does not seem difficult for 13 people to raise a soldier. But don't forget, not all the people in a county are agricultural! There are also people engaged in commerce, crafts and other trades, which account for about 30% of the total population. Plus the taxes of the imperial court...... Taxes are not counted for the time being, and after the establishment of the country, you don't have to pay taxes to the imperial court. But even so, it is basically equivalent to most of the agricultural population supporting the other non-agricultural population, and the rest can only be counted as two people to support one soldier, and the remaining grain is almost impossible to trade, let alone hoard.

You can't do that. Zhao Min silently shook his head in his heart, and supported 50,000 soldiers with hundreds of thousands of people, which was just rations, not to mention weapons and equipment, soldiers' salaries and other related needs. If you do this, it will be tantamount to fishing in the dry water. As for temporarily using agriculture to fill the army, Zhao Min didn't even think about the method of deceiving the system. Let's not talk about whether the system will be deceived or not, people's tasks clearly write 'standing forces', if you can't maintain a period of troops, what is it called 'standing forces'? Since it needs to be maintained for a period of time, what is the difference between it and actually turning agriculture into soldiers?

Zhao Min sighed, it seems that if you want to complete the main task, you can only sacrifice the magic weapon of Juntun. In fact, from the bottom of his heart, he was very reluctant to use this trick. There are countless examples of the use of military tuns in history, the most famous of which is naturally Cao Cao's military tun. But among them, the most far-reaching influence, the Ming Dynasty's military tun is unsurpassed in terms of its large scale and wide application.

Although the military cantonment can alleviate the pressure on food to a certain extent, it is only an expedient measure in the end, and it is absolutely impossible to really achieve the ideal effect of "strengthening the army and enriching the people." Judging from the military tuns of the past dynasties, especially the military tuns of the Ming Dynasty, there is no need to repeat the drawbacks. The most critical point is that at the cost of completely depriving the soldiers of Tuntian, the military tun degenerated conscription into conscription, which obviously belongs to social regression, which alone makes Zhao Min very difficult to accept.

Although the conscription system is still the mainstream in this era, what Zhao Min is doing now is trying to gradually improve all the sources of soldiers into recruitment, that is, professional soldiers. Standing at the top of the tide of more than 1,000 years of advanced thinking and looking down, the difference between professional soldiers and volunteers is clear at a glance, and whether it is from the perspective of operational needs or from the perspective of human rights, a comprehensive conscription system is imperative. Is it really necessary to set history backwards in order to accomplish the task?

Zhao Min shook his head, this matter was not considered clearly, but fortunately, the time limit given was one year, and there was still enough time to plan this matter. It's just that I don't know if it will make Meng Hou and them feel that they are reckless? Anyway, if you don't get the task done first, does it make sense to think about anything else?

Zhao Min settled down, and then looked at another task. This quest is written in light blue, indicating that this is a "special quest" that has not been seen in a long time.

Task Name: Exploration II

Duration of the mandate: three months

Description: As mentioned earlier, the spirit of adventure is always an indispensable ability for trailblazers. You've conquered the sea, and a river can't stop you. Complete your exploration of Surabaya within March and explore the mysteries of the ancients as no one has gone before.

Reward: 300 points

…………

After reading the mission briefing, Zhao Min couldn't help but curse in his heart. What's hairy? I hate this kind of vague introduction the most. This was the case with the last special mission, a large group of people worked blindly on the beach for a long time, but the content they were looking for was in the cave of the island, and they almost put their lives into it. This mission is even more excessive, what is the 'Ancient Mysteries'? There are many ancient times, is it the primitive period or the **** era? What the hell are you looking for? You better be clear! Although Zhao Min has never been to Surabaya, he also knows that it is a big river across Shandong and Jiangsu provinces, and its length is probably no less than three or five hundred miles. With the traffic level and road conditions of this era, I am afraid it will take half a month just to finish, let alone the so-called 'exploration'? The most troublesome thing is that you don't even know what you want to explore, isn't it tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack? At this moment, Zhao Min really had the urge to smash the system to pieces!

Of course, this is just thinking about it, this system itself is fantasy enough, and it exists in the brain, and no matter whether it can be smashed or not, even if it can smash Zhao Min, he doesn't dare to mess around in his head, what if something goes wrong? The system can not be wanted, but the brain can not be noted! Zhao Min was originally a casual person, so this idea was just passed in his heart for a while.

But speaking of which, the task rewards are getting more and more generous, and the two task reward points refreshed today are 500, which is almost 10 times more than the original only a few dozen points to live and die, and once these two tasks are completed, they can meet the requirements of summoning a famous general!

Speaking of the famous generals who have been summoned, there is one thing that is very strange. Although Zhao Min is not a fan of history, he can still distinguish the approximate date. The periods of Zhao Yun and Jiang Qin are not much different, so now it seems that the two are of the same age, which is normal. But the new master Ma Junma, Zhao Min remembers that it seems to be an official during the period of Emperor Wei Ming, right? Emperor Wei Ming is Cao Pi, who should be one round younger than the above two, and Ma Jun should also be more than ten years younger than Zhao Yun and Jiang Qin. But in fact, almost all of the three famous generals summoned are in their twenties, and they are really a little suspicious of time and space disorder.

But if you really want to talk about it, this era is nearly a hundred years earlier than the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty in real history, and the great-grandfathers of those three are probably still in a state of separation of sperm and eggs. Besides, even such nonsense as crossing and summoning can be encountered, so there is no need to worry about trivial things like age differences! He is not Zheng Da's old pedant who likes to pursue the roots.

Speaking of Zheng Da, wait, just now Meng Hou said where Zheng Da came from in seclusion? It seems to be Yanzhou Dongpingguo, right? Dongping is next to Lu, and the birthplace of Surabaya is exactly in the territory of Lu! And the closest point between Onozawa and Surabaya is less than 50 miles away! Speaking of which, if you want to explore Surabaya, you really have to pass by the door of Zheng Da's hermitage! Uncle Zheng, Uncle Zheng, do you think I'm going to invite you? Or please? Or please?

(It's a new weekend!) Another big chapter of nearly 4,000 words is sent, I wish you all a happy weekend! By the way, in order to conform to the habit of online articles, there were often 2,000-word chapters appearing, so that I couldn't even finish a complete thing. From now on, Lao Ma still reverts to his habits, and if there are no special circumstances, one chapter remains above three thousand, as for whether it is below four thousand...... Let's talk about it according to the specifics! ）
