Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Most Incompetent Traverser (Collect!) ~)
Nine out of ten people are white-eyed, and none of them are scholars. This is a famous sentence of the Qing Dynasty poet Huang Baijia, and it couldn't be more appropriate to use it on a traverser. The people who have always successfully crossed the country are science and engineering students and finance students in terms of disciplines, and they are soldiers, officials, and leaders according to their professions. Investigate the principle, science and engineering students know advanced science and technology, can use their own mastery of technology that is countless times more advanced than the world to make waves, financial students will manage money, will use advanced financial concepts to make money, you must know that in ancient times, many large families, including the emperor, often did not even know how much their net worth was, soldiers have advanced military ideas, officials are good at political struggle, as for the small leaders of the underworld, have you not heard of the soft afraid of the hard, the hard afraid of the horizontal, the horizontal afraid of not dying? The small boss is in the critical period of his career, and his single-man style is brave and brave to win the three armies, and it is really invincible to use it to cross.
Liberal arts students, on the other hand, rely on the modern fine division of disciplines, which has broken the close connection between the original disciplines of literature, history and philosophy, and the current liberal arts students are less and less like liberal arts students. Those who study literature often don't understand literature, and those who understand don't dare to go back at all, and they will be ashamed to death when they go back, just like Li Yu If he knew my mobile phone number, he would definitely tell me not to let him pirate the poems of his predecessors to show off, otherwise he would not be able to escape from the palace banquet in the future; Studying history often doesn't really understand history, only memorizes chronology and copies papers, and those who really understand often have communication problems, very simply, you don't have the details that others know before this point in time, and you don't dare to say it after that, and you're not sure what will change with your own discoveries; As for those who study philosophy, they are very bold, but it is estimated that they will be burned alive when they travel back, and then they will be found by later generations from the pile of old papers a few hundred years later, and they will be respected as great pioneers. Studying logic? Forget it, it's best to go back in the Warring States and Tang and Song Dynasties, and compare your fame with Gongsun Long in the Warring States Period, and in the Tang and Song Dynasties, go and visit Zen masters from all over the world.
Li Yu, who never imagined that he would be able to cross, has always had such a complicated mentality after crossing. He is only a middle-aged person, and he is known as a hermit-teacher-born in modern society, and after crossing over, he is attached to a crippled body, fortunately he is born noble, otherwise there will be problems with survival. How can such a man govern a vast and dangerous empire? Those who can enter the central government or dominate the party are not simple people, power and scheming are changing, and they are decisive in killing, and Li Yu can't catch up with one of them. My only advantage is to know the direction of history and the vision of future generations. Li Yu made it clear that he could not play any role in actual government affairs now.
To really solve the problems of this era, we still have to rely on the talents of this era. Li Yu was very glad that he did not travel in the late Tang Dynasty, at that time, even if he was attached to a sound emperor, it was also the building that would collapse, and it was difficult to support it alone, and now the hearts of the Tang people are still there, and the politics have not rotted to the point of being out of control, after forty or fifty years of recuperation after the Anshi Rebellion, the people's minds are governed, and the accumulation of social wealth is enough for Li Yu to fight a few wars. More importantly, these forty or fifty years have accumulated a large number of available talents for the Tang Dynasty, such as the older generation of Du You, Gao Ying, Du Huangshang, Lu Zhen, Fan Xichao, Zhang Jingze, Gao Chongwen, Zheng Yuqing, Li Xun, Wei Cigong, Wang Shuwen, Zheng Yin, Wu Yuanheng of the Mesozoic Era, Li Jifu, Quan Deyu, Pei Yan, Pei Du, Li Fan, Li Jiang, Liu Mian, Wei Zhiyi, Wei Dan, Li Yuan, Li Yong, etc., the younger Li Yu, Li Jiang, Cui Qun, Wang Ya, Han Tai, Ling Huai, Han Yu, Liu Yuxi, Liu Zongyuan, Bai Juyi, Yuan Zhen, Wei Guanzhi, Adie Guangjin, Adie Guangyan, etc., as long as these talents are used well, the Zhongxing of the Tang Dynasty is not a dream.
The obvious factors that led to the demise of the Tang Dynasty were the division of feudal towns, the dictatorship of eunuchs, and the party disputes between Niu and Li. Eunuchs and party strife consumed the strength of the Tang Central Committee, making it impossible for the Tang Central Committee to gather all its strength to deal with the feudal towns, which eventually led to the growing strength of the feudal towns and the weaker and weaker the central government, until the fall of the Tang Dynasty. On the one hand, land annexation has made some big families stronger and stronger, and on the other hand, it has caused a large number of landless peasants to become slaves or displaced people, which has seriously affected the central government's financial revenue and human resources, and a large number of idle labor forces have always been a key factor leading to social instability. The harsh rule would provoke an outbreak of revolt between this force and the peasants, who were the basis of the imperial court's rule, and eventually ignite the prairie fire and destroy the entire ruling apparatus.
Now that the eunuch group that affects the efficiency of the central government and the integration of forces has been uprooted, the eunuchs are gone, and the party disputes caused by the eunuchs are estimated to not appear, at least in Li Yu's view, the court is now united and upward. At present, most of the officials in charge of the imperial court are hardliners who advocate the flattening of the feudal towns, among the five prime ministers, Du Huangshang has economic talents, Lu Zhen is good at coordinating the overall situation, and has outstanding prestige, Zheng Yuqing is good at personnel, Wu Yuanheng is upright, Li Jifu is practical, and all of them are very enterprising, and such a prime minister team ranks in the top three in the entire Tang Dynasty. Among these people, Li Yu has the grace of knowing Du Huangshang and Wu Yuanheng, and has the grace of reinvention to Lu Zhen and Zheng Yuqing, so there is no need to worry about their loyalty, with these people as helpers, what Li Yu has to do is to use his historical knowledge to clarify what to do and how to do it.
The results of the 100 official letters sent to discuss politics a year ago finally got results in February. At the meeting of the prime ministers, Li Yu drew a semicircular path counterclockwise on the map with his right hand:
"First Huaixi, then Shandong, and finally Hebei. First the south and then the north, first the easy and then the difficult. ”
This semicircle involves the seven strongest feudal towns, the prime ministers have no objections, Huaixi is the weakest in the seven towns, stuck in the lifeline of the imperial court, and there are imperial court-controlled areas on all sides, so they should be the first to act, the towns in Hebei have Taihang in the west, and Shandong in the south as a barrier, and they collude with each other to echo, the imperial court has only one Zhang Maozhao's Yiding town to the east of Taihang, and it is not easy to put soldiers and supply grain and grass, so it ranks last.
"The Seven Towns have been subordinated for decades, and they are intertwined and deep-rooted, and they should not be rashly raised. The first thing the imperial court should do was to purge politics, consolidate the local government, strengthen finances, and reform the military system. ”
"Obey the Divine Commandment."
The prime ministers said in unison.
As for Xichuan, who will worry about Xichuan at this time?
