Chapter 355: Change of Guard

New territory has new defense zones.

The Qiang people in the south were basically beaten into a plate of scattered sand, and there were sporadic battles, but most of them were of a harassing nature, and after the important farming areas such as Hequ, Dafeichuan, and Fuluochuan were robbed, the Qiang people could only retreat to the plateau, and could not pose a major threat in the short term.

The threat came from four directions, Xiaoguan, Caohan, Xitao, and Xihai.

The previous four-sided rule is no longer suitable for the current territory.

Yang Zheng thought about the sand table for a while, and decided to change Xiaoguan to the east, Caohan to the south, Fuping to the north, and Haibeicheng to the west.

The four major systems also adopt a rotation system.

Zhou Yu is the north of the system, and the town is Fuping.

Yin Chun is the southern ruler and the town is Han.

Zhang Te is the western ruler, Zhenhai North.

Jiang Faye is the eastern control, and the town is Xiaoguan.

It is very likely that in the next two or three years, the Sima family will not start a big war, and even if it does, there is a sixty percent chance that Huainan will be solved first, so the pressure on Xiao Guan is not great.

Jiang is a little less capable of cutting wild, but his execution is sufficient.

Longxi is a hot spot, and Cao Han faces Jiang Wei and Deng Ai, and needs a wise and brave general, but Yang Zheng wants to sharpen Yin Chun with this.

It doesn't matter if it is lost, it just retreats to Heguan.

The Western Regions and Hetao will be Yang Zheng's enterprising direction in the next few years, and Zhang Te and Zhou Yu will be two generals, and there will be no big problems in each town.

The problem is that the general has been holding one side for too long, and a separatist force will be formed.

In fact, Cao Wei's four major prefectures, before Emperor Ming, were often discussed, Sima Yi was first the governor of Jingzhou, then the governor of Yongliang, and finally transferred to the center.

Biqiu Jian was first transferred to the history of Jingzhou, and then transferred to the history of Youzhou Assassin, General Duliao, and Captain Huwuhuan, and then transferred to General Zhennan, the history of Yuzhou Assassin, and finally transferred to the governor of Yangzhou.

The same is true of Zhuge Festival.

In addition to the transfer of the coach, the non-commissioned officers also adopted the wrong service system.

Wei Wu whipped and stumbled in the early days, which did not go well, Zhang Miao rebelled, colluded with Lu Bu and Chen Gong, and almost killed Cao Cao.

As a result, the system of wrongful service was created, and the servants lived on their own side.

That is, the Ding Fu and the soldiers will not be levied from the locality, but will be separated from the place where their homes are located.

Therefore, Biqiu Jian raised troops, and as soon as he arrived in Ancheng, he was shaken, because he had a large number of Huaibei soldiers under his command, and his family was under the control of Sima Shi.

Biqiu Jian did not send troops to Yan and Xu first, but directly knocked Luoyang, Hu Zun went south, and the Huaibei soldiers were centrifuged in an instant.

There are only untrained Huainan farmers around who are willing to give their lives.

As soon as Wen Qin was defeated, Biqiu Jian was powerless.

At present, Xiping has a government military system, and the elites are all in charge of Yang Zheng himself, so there is no need to mistake the military system for the time being.

The generals can be rotated.

It's not that I don't believe in Zhang Te, Zhou Yu, and Jiang Faye, but try to standardize it with the system.

After taking Guzang, Yang Zheng is not a grass platform team.

In addition, Shao Tong of Longqi City, Li Teh of Jishi Mountain, Zhou Zhi of Heguan, Gong Yu of Yuzhong, Zhao Deng and Yang Ji of Tuntian Division, etc., have gradually become the backbone of the Xiping Army.

Also on the rotation list.

In April, when the entire Xiping was busy with spring ploughing, Yang Zheng led his guards back to Guzang.

Wuwei is in ruins, and the dust has not yet settled, and the family scroll is temporarily left in the Western Capital.

It happened that Du Pre and Wei Qian had completed the reorganization of the Yongliang Army and captured them, and they also returned to Guzang.

Yang Zheng said his idea, and after Du Zhen groaned, he said: "You can add a deputy system to guard the key places such as Luyin, Poyan, Qilian, Heguan, and Yuzhong." ”

Yang Zheng thought so.

Du Yu agreed, Wei Qian had no opinion, and Yang Zheng directly issued a military order.

"Our army has more and more jurisdictions, and the local officials are not even, so we should recruit talents and govern the localities." Du asked a very urgent question.

In this big battle, Wuwei, Anding, and Xitao were won.

In addition to the original Xiping, Jincheng, and Xihai, there are six counties and 38 counties.

The six counties of Jiangdong can be established, but in the northwest, the combined population of these six counties is not as large as that of one county in Jiangdong.

If it was when the two Han Dynasty were strong, these six counties added up, there were almost fifty or sixty counties, Wuwei alone had fourteen counties, and Beidi County had nineteen counties......

By the end of the Han Dynasty, the Wei and Jin dynasties, the western set where Beidi County was located was directly lost, and Wuwei was greatly reduced.

Other states and counties are also losing their populations.

Thirty-eight counties have only reached the size of one county in terms of geography, and the population is far behind.

This is the reality that Yang Zheng is facing today.

To put it bluntly, compared to the Central Plains, it is an ant......

Even compared with the dilapidated and tired Yongzhou, it is much inferior.

Of course, if you add Dunhuang, Jiuquan, Zhangye, and the Western Regions, Yang Zheng is enough to crush Guanzhong.

"How to recruit talents?" Yang Zheng asked with blazing eyes.

There were major problems with the Han Chaju system and the Wei Jiupin official law.

Show talent, don't know books. Filial piety and honesty, the father does not live. Hansu is as white and turbid as mud, and Gao Diliang will be as timid as a chicken.

If you carefully browse the history books, you will find that the great filial sons praised in history are all in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Wei and Jin eras.

Wang Xiang, who is lying on the ice and begging for carp, is the ancestor of the Langya Wang family.

Lu Ji, the widow of Huaiju, is the Jiangdong gate lord Lu.

At that time, Sima Shi also had the name of filial piety......

It's not that filial piety is wrong, it's just that it's too easy to put on a show.

Could it be that those who practice filial piety are all sons of families?

Filial piety, filial piety, all went to raise filial piety, but the latter word was selectively forgotten.

And the Jiupin Official Law went directly back to the old path of Sima's family.

At the beginning, the Nine Rank Officials did have some progress over the filial piety system, but it tested the integrity of the Zhongzheng officials too much.

The two Jin are a bloody lesson.

Yang Zheng faintly felt that he had reached a critical intersection.

Du pre-said: "It can be observed and done in parallel with Zhongzheng, and then its ability and conduct will be considered by the Xuanyi Division." ”

This method is stronger than the single nine-product Zhongzheng system, and there is also the Xuanyi Division to guard the door.

But it is not enough to get to the root of the problem.

What Yang Zheng wants is to completely open the channel for the bottom to jump upward.

Military merit is just one of the ways.

Another way is how to select talents.

This is also the limitation of Du Pre's era.

It just so happened that Yang Zheng was a person from the past in this regard.

Although the conditions for the imperial examination system are not yet ripe, it can be slightly improved according to the current situation.

In this regard, the big killing weapon in Yang Zheng's hands is not the Xuanyi Division, but the Qingying.

At present, the youth camp is almost the nine-year compulsory education in later generations.

Food, shelter, and study at public expense.

Over the years, under the deliberate guidance of Yang Zheng, it has not been limited to Confucian classics, covering the art of war, martial arts, astronomy, geography, medicine, Danshu, and even forging, carpentry, and city building.

Although many disciplines are only in rudimentary form and cannot invite famous teachers, the shelves are set up, and various details will be slowly filled in sooner or later.

Perhaps the biggest stroke of Yang Zheng in the history books in the future is not to divide Yongliang, but to create a green camp.

"Exam!" Yang Zheng directly threw out two words.

Du Yu and Wei Qian were stunned at the same time, and finally Wei Qian spoke first: "Could it be the school evaluation?" ”

Yang Zheng nodded, "That's right, the talents who are inspected, recruited, and selected by the local government are all admitted to Guzang, and the government proposes to test their talents, knowledge, and strategies." ”

Paper is not a rare thing in this era, Xiping can also be imitated, but it is just mashed wood pulp, bamboo pulp, rattan pulp, screening and purification, dehydration molding, pressing and drying, not a high-tech thing, the test is craftsmanship and heat.

Although it is rough, it is not as good as Luoyang's Zuobo paper, but it is enough to write.

Thousands of papers used in the exam, Yang Zheng can still get them.

In the first year, after Yang Zheng weighed it repeatedly, he did not include the children of Qingying for the time being.

Let's take a look at Shi Jiahao's reaction and give them time to adapt.

On the other hand, most of the children in the youth camp are fifteen or sixteen years old, and even if they succeed in their studies, they are sent out to serve as county magistrates...... It's a little appalling.

Eat the rice one bite at a time, and the road is one step at a time.

Yang Zheng has high hopes for the Qingying, but he can't pull out the seedlings to help them grow.

In time, a hundred flowers will eventually bloom.

"It's a feasible strategy." Wei Qian was very appreciative.

Du Yu's eyes lit up, "This strategy not only collects the power of Zhongzheng to the center, but also selects real talents, and the general is really very human." ”

Yang Zheng's old face was red, he couldn't copy his homework, wouldn't he have traveled in vain?
