After James's introduction, Shen Yun understood a little bit about it.

It turned out that after the Han Shengzu unified the whole country, he launched a 30-year campaign against the Western Regions in 420 Han Yuan, which was called the "Holy War of Frontier Opening" in later generations!

The territory of the Han Empire nearly doubled in those three decades, reaching as far north as Siberia, as far south as Starfall (i.e., Singapore), and as far west as the eastern shore of the Caspian Sea. The conquered population reached more than half of the total population of the Han Empire at that time, mainly including the Xianbei people, the Yueshi people, the Kushan people, and the Kangju people.

Unlike Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, who fought the Xiongnu with reckless force, resulting in an empty treasury and a weakened national strength, this holy war not only did not cost the Han Empire a penny, but because of the war, the treasury became richer and richer. The reason for this is that Han Shengzu applied the capitalist colonial war model to this era.

As we all know, the moderation of Confucian culture doomed the expansion of the Han regime in successive dynasties to a peak. Once such a conquest war is launched, the first thing to face is the condemnation of the literati class. Take Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, as an example, he opened up thousands of miles of territory for the Han Dynasty during his lifetime, leveled the Xiongnu, so that the Han Empire did not have the Xiongnu border troubles for hundreds of years, but after his death, he was also considered to be "poor soldiers, good joy, and excessive punishment", and the temple number was chosen to take a word "martial" that has both praise and disapproval in Confucian culture!

In the period of the Holy Ancestors, there was no ethnic group around Greater East Asia whose culture was higher than that of the Han Dynasty, so it was not too difficult to conquer them, and the key was that the impact of this conquest on the Confucian culture of the Han people made these literati feel great pressure. The literati were also the elite of the Han Empire, and their attitudes directly determined the mood of the people at the bottom.

However, it is clear that Han Shengzu has handled these contradictions appropriately. In addition, the era in which Han Shengzu lived was the Three Kingdoms period when people's hearts were supposed to be floating and war-torious, and Han Shengzu skillfully transferred this kind of people's heat to foreign countries, allowing the Han people to accumulate four hundred years of restlessness and vent it to these backward civilizations, and finally completed an unprecedented great achievement!

In terms of regional division, the Han Shengzu designated the original 36 counties of Kyushu in the Han Empire as the old state. The newly conquered area was divided into eleven prefectures in Kyushu and designated as Shinshu. NSW residents are subject to more than 10 times more taxes than NSW residents. If residents of the old state move to the new state, give incentives for a hundred years of low taxes. If a NSW resident wants to become a resident of the old state, he must pass the review of the Government Affairs Council, and the most basic review condition is that he must have a skill. Wealth is not part of the review criteria. That is to say, even if a new state person is rich and rivals the country, if he does not have a skill, he cannot become a resident of the old state.

Of course, under this colonial policy, it is difficult for the people of NSW to become rich and rich.

Although Zhang Xian had a Han name, he was actually a native of the Xinzhou Yue clan, and he also had a Yue name--- Gongkun Abbas. But I never mentioned it to anyone. Although his father is the governor of Dayue Prefecture, he is not an imperial nobleman, but can only be regarded as a Xinzhou nobleman.

Dayue Prefecture is the northwestern state of the Han Dynasty, separated by the two small states of Cai'an and Tushi, which are the easternmost provinces of Parthia and Asia Minor in Rome. Every month, Roman merchants came to the Great Moon State to trade, and the main purpose of the Great Moon State was to maintain this international trade. Therefore, Zhang Xian, who is the son of the state pastor, naturally learned Roman, and he also knew a lot about the situation in Rome, so he talked to James very well.

They are both Han Chinese, but their status and wealth are extremely unbalanced, and the resulting contradictions between the residents of the new state and the residents of the old state are naturally getting deeper and deeper. It is also normal for Zhang Xian not to like the children of the nobles in Laozhou.

After understanding this, Shen Yun shrugged his shoulders a little helplessly and said with a smile: "It seems that he and I don't have much chance to sit together for breakfast." ”

James said, "Not necessarily. Although I can't represent Ke Xun's wishes, I know that he is actually very enthusiastic, but he is not good at expressing himself, and there are some emotional entanglements, which is why he is so dull now. I'll ask him out another day, and a few of us will sit together, or go to the poetry competition together, and find something that everyone is interested in doing, maybe we can get acquainted. ”

Shen Yun thought for a while and said, "Okay, if you have a chance, you can arrange it!" ”

"It's a deal!" James smiled and nodded. The two ran for a while, and then Shi Shiran returned to the dormitory building, and when he said goodbye at the staircase, James suddenly asked, "By the way, will you go to the kendo class later?" ”

Shen Yun patted his thigh and said with a smile: "Of course, I'm alive now!" ”

"Well, that's great. See you later! ”

"See you later!"

…………………… Dividing line ........................

As one of the compulsory courses for Han students, kendo courses have always been loved by students. Of course, another important reason for its popularity is that kendo classes are generally attended by students from the same department, and girls wear tight-fitting protective gear.

In this era when there is no movie network, girls in tight protective gear are definitely an irresistible temptation for boys!

Kendo classes are all in the Sword Pavilion, and as usual, today's class is still full of people. Shen Yun only figured out in the past few days that he is in the Department of Political Science and Law, and his major is policy consideration. What exactly do you want to learn in this major, Shen Yun is a little inexplicable until now. In his heart, he still slandered Han Shengzu, a senior.

The sturdy shoulder armor, tight breastplate and abdominal armor, close-fitting shin armor, and refined cowhide boots made Shen Yun's promoted posture be well displayed. Fang Cheng, He Kuan, and Dou Xian are all from the Department of Political Science and Law, so they are here together today.

James was not far behind Shen Yun, and the two nodded to each other when they saw each other. In comparison, Shen Yun was surprised to find that the height of the Han people in this era was actually generally tall, and the height of 1.78 meters was only medium here. Most Han Chinese men can reach 1.8 or 1.9 meters, and James's Western physique does not show an absolute advantage here.

The queue for the class is separate for men and women, and each occupies half of the space. Being able to take classes together is the limit of this era, and it would be unthinkable to mix men and women to practice together.

Shen Yun's opposite is Fang Xuan, and the two of them don't really know how to do it, and now this class is about starting hands, sword tricks, and no specific swordsmanship teaching. So Shen Yun felt a little bored, and looked around with his eyes open.

The shiny protective gear around them made them look like an army that was about to go out and was being reviewed! Of course, it would be more like it if it weren't for those pretty girls!

During his glance, Shen Yun suddenly noticed that someone was watching him, turned his head, and saw a familiar figure appear not far from the left.

Duanping Princess Zhou Hui?!

Shen Yun was surprised. He didn't expect that this Zhou Hui was also from his own department, why didn't he find out before!

At this time, Zhou Hui was scanning him with a smug gaze, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was more like a mockery.

Shen Yun had a bad premonition.

Soon, this hunch was confirmed. A tall figure came out from the other side and said in a buzzing voice: "Gentlemen, Shentu Sword Master has something to do today, so I, Wang Rong, am temporarily the instructor to teach everyone's swordsmanship!" Please also work with me! ”

Fang Cheng looked at Wang Rong, then at Zhou Hui over there, and said in a low voice: "Yuan Rang, there is something wrong with this atmosphere today!" ”

"Nonsense. Of course I do! Shen Yun gritted his teeth and glared at Zhou Hui, but Zhou Hui provocatively stuck out his tongue at him and turned his head.

Shen Yun angrily pointed his middle finger over there......

Zhou Hui's movements alarmed the girl who was practicing with her, she glanced back at Shen Yun strangely, just when she saw this obviously unfriendly action, she couldn't help but sink her pretty face, her eyes shot over like electricity, and her eyes were like a qualitative snow, which made Shen Yun feel like she was being targeted by a fierce beast and would be torn apart at any time.

"Damn, this girl's eyes are so spicy!" Shen Yun said darkly.

When he wanted to take a closer look, the girl turned her head away, leaving him with a beautiful back in a bun.

The shiny protective gear outlines this girl's perfect figure, especially the long legs that can be called the body of a top model, and the fitted shin armor makes her slender jade legs appear metallic, more like a beautiful statue! If this kind of top-level long legs are photographed and put on the modern Internet, it will definitely not be worse than any Kong Yansong.

Just as Shen Yun was thinking wildly, Wang Rong's buzzing voice suddenly appeared in his ears: "Yuan Rangjun, what are you looking at?" Didn't you listen to me! ”

Wang Rong's already fierce and abnormal eyes seemed to bulge out at this moment, and Shen Yun's heart was beating wildly, and it took a long time to suppress it and say, "Instructor, we practice these basic postures every day, can you change something else?" ”

A surprised expression appeared on Wang Rong's rigid face, and he hummed, "Have you practiced your starting style well?" ”

"It's okay, look!" Shen Yun used the wooden sword in his hand to pull out a few sword flowers casually, and finally pinched a standard back sword sword trick, the movements were clean and neat, and he was extremely handsome.

I haven't eaten pork and watched pigs go, the Internet era in my previous life is not virtual, this classic sword flower action Shen Yun is extremely proficient and beautiful. A few boys around him have already cheered up.

Shen Yun clasped his fists around to express his gratitude.

But Wang Rong still looked at it expressionlessly, and finally said: "It's over!" ”

Shen Yun was stunned, a little unsure of what he meant.

"No matter how beautiful the flower shelf is, it is just a flower shelf!" Wang Rong mercilessly belittled, "Kendo pursues one-hit defeat, and the more fancy moves you have, the easier it is for the enemy to succeed." I don't know what the hell you're doing, you don't pay attention in class, and you only learn these tricks to fool people? Sure enough, he is a famous swinger in the whole school! Waste one! ”

As soon as Wang Rong ruthlessly insulted, everyone fell silent. Those who are familiar with Wang Rong know that he is a martial arts idiot, and his pursuit of kendo is very fanatical. This fanaticism is also brought to teaching, and anyone who does not study kendo hard is an insult to kendo in his opinion!

But Fang Cheng and the others, who are familiar with Shen Yun, also know that since Shen Yun was smashed on the head, the original arrogance does not exist, and he is still quite generous and kind, but this kind of kindness is not weakness. Wang Rong's insult would obviously arouse Shen Yun's anger. In addition, there is Duanping Princess Zhou Hui over there, who can prove that Wang Rong's insult was not deliberately instigated by Zhou Hui?

Wang Rong deliberately found fault to clean up Shen Yun!

This was Fang Cheng's first thought. I believe that Shen Yun is too.
