Chapter 23 Imagination of a Hundred Schools

Two days later, the ban in Laiwu County was lifted, and the entire county was free. This time the freedom is the real freedom.

On the street, the common people were full of joy, they knew that they had once again become the people under the rule of the Han people, and everyone vied with each other to tell the iron law of the Tiger Bentuan, the love of the people like a son, and at the same time the benefits of various new policies, the image of Wang Jundao thoroughly penetrated into the common people, and was widely praised.

As early as last night, Wang Jundao had already led the Tiger Ben regiment south to attack Xintai County, this time, he left Xu Jian's second company to garrison Laiwu City, recruit troops, train new soldiers, and at the same time sit in Laiwu, implement a new policy, and gradually bring down the landlords and tyrants in the villages of Laiwu County, distribute the land to households, and at the same time form a militia group.

The three hundred elite patrol battalion soldiers recruited from Laiwu County were incorporated into the Tiger Ben Regiment and went south with the army to attack Xintai County, Wang Jundao did this with great significance, one is to let Xu Jian's second company completely let go of his hands and feet in Laiwu County, and there is no need to divide troops to garrison these 300 patrol battalion soldiers to prevent 300 elite soldiers from bombing the battalion. The second reason is that every county will let the Tiger Regiment stay in the garrison, and with the addition of these 300 people, it can be guaranteed that the number of combat personnel of the Tiger Regiment will not decrease. Third, through marching and fighting, the 300 soldiers of the patrol battalion can quickly integrate into the Tiger Regiment.

Laiwu County was only less than eighty miles away from Xintai County, and the Tiger Regiment arrived in only seven hours after a rapid march in the middle of the night.

When the sky was still dark, the siege of Xintai County began, and it was still the special combat team members who were the vanguard, first breaking through the city gate, and then beheading the operation to control the county government.

At dawn, Xintai County was completely included in Wang Jundao's bag.

For a whole day, under the personal command of Wang Jundao and the implementation of Cui Jingluo, the new policy began to take root in the hearts of the people, and in the end, the corrupt [***] magistrate was shot, and the county was put on the throne of the magistrate because of his good political performance, of course, now it is not called the magistrate, but the county magistrate.

In this battle, Wang Jundao captured more than 20,000 taels of gold, more than 500,000 taels of silver, and countless treasures and materials, and at the same time incorporated 255 elite soldiers of the Xintai County Patrol Battalion, and the Tiger Regiment swelled to more than 1,000 people again, and the third, fourth, and fifth companies also became the third, fourth, and fifth battalions!

After the dust settled, Wang Jundao found Cui Jingluo and said to him: "Lao Cui, Laiwu County and Xintai County are extremely rich in various mineral resources, especially the vast area between the two counties, there are dozens of mineral resources, including coal, iron, gold, copper, silicon, limestone, dolomite, granite, Muyu stone, etc., especially coal and iron, large reserves, high grade, easy to mine, and this area is rich in water resources. It will be built into our steel and coal capital, and at the same time build our first industrial base. ”

Wang Jundao is well aware of the resource situation in this area, which is called Gangcheng District in later generations, and is the real "steel and coal capital" of Shandong Province, and now he needs such an industrial base to provide himself with a large amount of steel to create a variety of new guns, all kinds of cannons, and all kinds of weapons, this area is his best choice, and he will not let it go.

"Is the head of the regiment planning to let me build this steel and coal?" Cui Jingluo couldn't help but ask.

"Yes, I will give you the specific plan slowly, and you can think of more things yourself, and at the same time, I will gather all the capable craftsmen in Tai'an Prefecture, and all kinds of talents will be available to you, and I will provide all kinds of technologies, you just need to establish this industrial base as soon as possible." Wang Jundao nodded.

"Commander, give this area a name." Cui Jingluo said directly, there is no shortage of talents, resources, craftsmen, labor, and technology, and he has no problems at all.

"It's called Gangcheng District, and it's also called the Iron and Steel Coal Capital, which is outside the counties and is directly under my management." Wang Jundao said without thinking, this place will be called Gangcheng District in the future generations, and he naturally doesn't bother to use other names.

"Okay, I'll set it up as soon as I can." Cui Jingluo nodded.

"Well, when the time comes, I will move the First Arsenal to the Steel City District." Wang Jundao continued. If he wants to conquer the world, one arsenal can't do it, he needs a second and a third...... Until the nth arsenal was built, and he knew that eggs could not be put in just one basket.

"I'll go get ready." Cui Jing turned around and left with a little bit, he is the kind of person who will implement it immediately once he has made a decision, and he will never drag his feet, which is one of the reasons why Wang Jundao reuses him.

After Cui Jingluo left, Wang Jundao couldn't help but sigh and muttered: "There are still too few talents, it seems that I have to establish my own talent training institution, talent is inseparable from science and technology, science and technology are inseparable from education, education must start from the baby, science and education can rejuvenate the country." ”

Wang Jundao suddenly thought that these areas under his control now happen to be the areas with the strongest cultural atmosphere from ancient times to the present, and the illiteracy rate is far lower than that of other regions, who made this the foot of Mount Tai? Who made Tarzan so famous? There is also Feicheng in the west of Tai'an, which was a real country of gentlemen in ancient times.

Thinking of this, Wang Jundao suddenly realized that if at the foot of Mount Tai, with the eternal style of Mount Tai, directly establish military schools and political schools, and recruit those who are knowledgeable but have no way to serve the country to do penance, so that they will be loyal to themselves, then in the future, will not be inexhaustible talents?

In addition, if a hundred colleges are set up, hundreds of disciplines are opened, physics, chemistry, biology, medicine, electronics, astronomy, geography, and other disciplines are all accommodated, and at the same time, talents who have some attainments in encyclopedias are summoned to go into penance, then in a few years at most, will you not have a large number of talents in various industries? And it's all loyal to their own talents, how nice is that?

And if compulsory education is implemented, so that children can begin to read and write from an early age, and learn hundreds of academics, then the cultural level of the whole people can be multiplied and multiplied.

Wang Jundao is a little glad that the base he chose is under Mount Tai where the literary style prevails from ancient times to the present, and his backbone originated from the Boxer Rebellion, and completely brought the martial style into this anointed land, so it will not take much time for this area to thoroughly advocate the literary style and martial style, showing the trend of a hundred schools of thought.

Wang Jundao suddenly had a heroic feeling of looking up to the sky and roaring, he couldn't wait to do a big job immediately, reproduce the prosperity of the Han and Tang dynasties, reopen the hundred schools of thought, and let the Han culture flourish completely, he doesn't like the golden mean, although it is a good means to govern the country, but it will make the culture of the whole nation slowly ossify and lose the enterprising wind.

If a nation's culture becomes the language of a family, if it does not criticize each other, attack each other, and collide with each other, how can it progress?

Wang Jundao knows that after thousands of years of history, it seems that the culture is prosperous, in fact, since the Qin Dynasty, Chinese culture has begun to stagnate, not for anything else, just because of the deposition of the hundred schools of thought, the exclusive respect for Confucianism, from the Han Dynasty after the more than 2,000 years of history, throughout China, not even put forward a novel and creative doctrine, all in the continuation of the Confucian set of things, and even later, the original Confucianism of many things have been distorted and become unrecognizable.

Wang Jundao knows very well that the Confucian set of doctrines, whether it is governing the country or the army, is plagiarized from the Legalists, soldiers, Mohists, Zonghengjia, peasants and other schools.

Chinese culture is only at its peak during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, when a hundred schools of thought contended!

The golden mean, may be a short-term way of peace, but it is not the real way of long-term prosperity, the real way of long-term prosperity, only competition will be formed, because natural selection, survival of the fittest, only the academic competition with each other, in order to improve each other, in order to produce a new school, will let the people have the spirit of pioneering and innovative, if a monopoly, that is self-destruction, will only be surpassed by the culture of other nations, and it is easy to die.

This point, the history of China has given a good proof, the five chaos of China, the Han culture was almost destroyed, the Mongolian iron horse destroyed the Song Dynasty, there was no China after Yashan, the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, stepped on thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, and trampled on the Han culture restored by the Ming Dynasty for more than two hundred years to be worthless!

It's all bloody history.

The Confucian set of things, if it had just been produced, was fine, it was pure, but after thousands of years, because of the support of the ruling class, no academic institution could compete with it, so that it lost its competitors, but the real doctrine of Confucianism is only suitable for ceremonial officials.

According to Confucianism, literature cannot secure the country, military cannot determine the country, technology cannot be invented, agriculture cannot be produced, and business cannot be rich...... If Confucianism wants to govern the country, he has to borrow other things, which is equivalent to adding other things to his original pure paper.

The final ending will only lead to the unrecognizable paper of that pure paper!

This is thousands of years of history, there will be so many useless scholars in Confucianism who can't even take care of themselves, and those sour Confucians who don't do anything and can only judge their heads!

As everyone knows, more than 2,000 years ago, Confucius sages and scholars could write books and legacy, martial arts could lift thousands of catties of giant gates, riding could gallop on a prancing horse, and shooting could pierce Yang in a hundred steps, and Confucius's disciples were a large number of civil and military figures, including technicians, wealthy businessmen, and so on.

True Confucianism does not despise other doctrines, nor does it look down on people from all walks of life, but collides with other doctrines, restrains each other, and eventually goes hand in hand.

Thinking of this, Wang Jundao couldn't help but feel sad in his heart: I don't know how for thousands of years, those corrupt Confucians who have regarded Confucius as the supreme have despised craftsmen and businessmen so much?

Look down on the mechanics, look down on the merchants, look down on the peasants...... What's the difference between that and looking down on Confucius?

It can be seen that the original concept of Confucianism founded by Confucius was not to override the hundred schools of thought at all, let alone to overthrow the hundred schools, but just to create what they wanted to express, and the real core concept of Confucianism is actually to respect the sons of the hundred schools, Confucius's sentence "If you are a threesome, you must have my teacher" is the best proof!

It's a pity that for thousands of years, those scholars only know to hold the sage book and chew the words, but they have never thought of forging ahead and creating new things like the ancient sages, which is the most fundamental reason for the lack of creativity of the Chinese nation today, because the Chinese culture, after a hundred schools of thought contended, has completely declined!

Confucianism is dominant, it seems that it can make the world peaceful, but in fact, it is not written, martial arts is not enough, it is impossible to make the dynasty last forever, this is a major reason for the frequent replacement of dynasties in China for thousands of years, think about since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, which dynasty has a history of more than three hundred years? But the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties, no matter which one they are, have a history of more than 500 years!

Wang Jundao didn't know why he thought so much, and he didn't know why he felt so much, but he knew that since he came here, then he wouldn't let history repeat itself.
