Although Zuo Feng didn't understand this situation, as long as he was a person from the Xuanwu Empire, he knew a thing or two about it. The reason why it is said that the highest family of the Xuanwu Empire, the reason why they are in the highest position of the empire, is because these families are protégés in the entire empire.
Although most of the high-level officials in the Xuanwu Empire are appointed by the empire, where do the assigned people sometimes come from, it is impossible for them to appear out of thin air without roots and foundations. These people who were either assigned or promoted by the empire were basically from various families.
This wine is the essential difference between the Xuanwu Empire and the Yelin Empire, that is, there is a huge difference in the system of the empire.
Zuo Feng's hometown of the Yelin Empire, the warriors at the bottom can rely on their own strength and ability to deal with things, and in the process of constantly improving their cultivation and strength, they can improve their identity and status little by little. For example, the commanders under Yasuo, although they were appointed by the county guards, they were originally ordinary warriors, and they could only get the position of commander because they had made meritorious contributions to the empire and were rewarded and assigned.
And the commander's continuous efforts to improve his cultivation will also give him the opportunity to change his identity and become the city lord. And the city lord can also continue to train his subordinates, although these cultivated people, although they can no longer promote their subordinates to the commander in the city, but they can recommend their subordinates to other city lords, and even other county guards.
In this way, not only can you improve your network, but at the same time, these cultivated talents can also earn the opportunity for the city lord to challenge the county guard by participating in the spiral tower trial. This seems to be like a kind of talent training chain, so that the empire can save a lot of money and energy, and on the basis of continuously cultivating better talents for the empire.
This wine was a method that was conceived by an imperial leader of the previous generations of the Yelin Empire, and this method also allowed the Yelin Empire to climb to a higher position in a short period of time.
But there are advantages and disadvantages in the world, and in terms of profit, the empire does not need to spend too much money, and it has obtained a large number of talents to replenish it. However, these people are not cultivated by the empire, and these people do not have much sense of belonging to the empire, but are more keen to cultivate their own cronies.
Originally, the idea of the empire was to make the empire flourish in this way so that all those who held the power were in this chain of interests, competing with each other. However, this method has made many people obsessed with cultivating their subordinates, and they are very happy to expand their relationship chain in the second place, competing for the position of city lord and county guard.
At the beginning, Anxiong was not such a greedy person, he also climbed up level by level in this environment, so in the face of Zuo Feng's request and his own interests, he did not hesitate to choose to give up Zuo Feng and his family.
However, these Zuo Feng did not know, he was a child who grew up in a remote mountain village, and he did not know much about the upper workings of the Ye Lin. So he couldn't understand, let alone forgive Anxiong for what he did at that time, if he knew more, I'm afraid he really wouldn't blame the other party too much, I'm afraid that most of Yelin's city lords would end up being much different from him when they faced Anxiong's choice.
On the other hand, the Xuanwu Empire is indeed based on each family, and uses the power of the family to train their children to hold important positions in the empire. For example, this Su Jing in front of him is the martial artist of the Su family, and he was one of the groups cultivated by Su Lan at the beginning, although they are not masters and apprentices, but this Su Jing is also quite popular among Su Lan's many cultivators.
Among the many martial artists cultivated by these amateur families, they are also divided into three, six, nine and so on, and some of them with slightly less qualified qualifications will be arranged to the bottom of the family to do some of the most superficial work, although there is no worry about their lives, of course, they will not be able to obtain any wealth and power.
And those who are in the middle and upper levels of qualifications can be arranged to various cities and fortresses in the empire through family relationships, and obtain higher rights through their own continuous efforts. Of course, in this process, unless they make unforgivable mistakes, the family still continues to help in all aspects.
There is a different opportunity for those at the top of the hierarchy, who have access to higher resources and rights, but also face higher risks. In the case of the Su family, their family will select a group of teenagers every three years to train them, and the number is about 400 people.
Fifty to seventy of them are too mediocre in qualifications, and they will be placed in various family industries to help the family in all aspects. It sounds very good, in fact, it is to be a handyman for life, even if you can't starve to death, but it is just to maintain the food and clothing of a family.
Among the other more than 300 people, there are almost about 2780 people, who will be sent to the disciples of various commanders to be trained. Some lucky marshals may personally give it to them, but that is only a little bit of teaching, and most of them are just taught and instructed by the people under the marshal.
This Su Jing is a martial artist cultivated by the Su family in this way, and it is precisely a martial artist trained by this Su Lan at the beginning. At the beginning, Su Jing's qualifications were quite acceptable, although he was not the highest level, but he was quite good among a group of people at that time, so Su Lan had personally instructed him in his cultivation.
There were also less than fifty people, all of whom were of course extremely gifted, and they had been separated from the beginning and sent to a secret place to practice according to their family's assignments. These young people can obtain the best resources of the family, including exercises, martial arts, and all kinds of medicinal aids.
However, after enjoying these convenient conditions, these people will finally face a test of life and death. Because only one or two of them survived, and of course none of them survived.
These remaining teenagers who have been fully cultivated by the family have actually become the backbone of the family, and after that, they will accept various tasks from the family. They have to continue to experience in this process, and naturally some people will die in the process, but in the end, all that can be left is the elite of the elite.
With the continuous accumulation and strengthening of cultivation, and the continuous tempering of the mind and wisdom, these people will eventually reach the level of the great handsome, just like the great handsome Su Lan at this time.
Of course, Su Lan is not kind enough to do that, and when she sees someone in distress, she will come to the rescue. It was precisely because the person who was attacked by the demonic beast and whose life was hanging by a thread was the martial artist of their Su family, and it was also Su Jing, who had some relationship with him, that he would brazenly save him.
When this Su Jing was sent to Linshan County, he was actually just a city guard in the town below. Over the years, through continuous efforts, his cultivation has been continuously improved, and he has also obtained meritorious services in the continuous fight with demonic beasts, so that he has the title of the general who guards the county and the city today.
Although there are a total of eight gates here, each of which has three guards, this status is enough to make many warriors envious. Because as long as they work hard, they will have the opportunity to be sent to a certain town to become the lord of the city, and the family will be closer to them at that time.
The original Lord of Bald Mountain City, he was actually a martial artist of the Lin family. It is only because of the inextricable connection between the Lin family and the Cheng family that he will spare no effort to help Cheng Tianhao in the competition. Of course, when I was in Balshan Town, it was also because the mayor of the town had some relationship with the family and Yaomen that he was able to invite many masters of Yaomen to come over to participate in the competition.
This is the Xuanwu Empire, and the systems of the Xuanwu Empire and the Yelin Empire are actually very similar. Because in the earlier days, the mainland basically followed the example of the ancient wilderness empire, with the sect as the mainstay, the family as the auxiliary, and the bull's ear of the entire empire.
It was only later that because of the different specific circumstances of each empire, and the selfishness of the lord who controlled the overall situation at that time, and wanted to finally control the empire in the hands of a family or a lineage, so many changes took place now.
The Xuanwu Empire's way of controlling the empire with a family can bring the entire empire together because of the family to jointly resist the invasion of foreign enemies. But because of the selfishness of each family, in the end, there were many problems within the empire.
For example, the matter of the new county town at the beginning, although it seems that the people in the hands of the C hand are very complicated, not only involving several small families, but also involving forces outside the empire. But these combinations, which seem difficult to understand, seem to understand the strangeness in the eyes of the Su family, which is also inextricably linked to the struggle between the major families of the empire.
Therefore, it is more correct to say that this Xuanwu Empire is not so much in the hands of the empire, but directly in the hands of countless families.
In addition to the Yelin Empire and the Xuanwu Empire, there are also two super empires, that is, the Grassland Country in the far eastern steppe, and the Fengtian Dynasty in the south.
One of these two places was a nomadic empire dominated by tribes and chieftains, and the other was a Mukden dynasty with strict hierarchies and supremacy over everything.
Don't say that Zuo Feng has never been to these two places, and even heard about them a little, let alone know the customs of these two places, and even the operation of the state apparatus.
However, since Zuo Feng wanted to get Anya's antidote, he had to participate in the battle at the highest level of the Xuanwu Empire. If he wants to find his sister, he also has to understand the fundamentals of other empires, and if he doesn't understand the operation of these empires clearly, there is no way to solve other things.
So coming to this Linshan County is also the beginning of everything, and it is also the beginning of his time in Linshan County.
