Chapter 1026: Confucianism into Ink
"Didn't you bully me for not reading?" Seeing these classics presented by the other party, Liu Ying was furious and said, "This is clearly your Confucian classics, what does it have to do with our Mo family?" ”
In the face of the emperor's anger, this man unhurriedly tidied up his clothes and made them more upright, and then said, "Your Majesty's words are wrong, as we all know, Mozi once learned from Mencius, although he later left for some reason, but Mozi was indeed a disciple of Confucianism, and his enlightenment also originated from Confucianism, and the various classics he learned back then are also Confucian classics!" ”
"Since Mozi, the sage of my Mo family, has learned the right way of the Mo family from the Confucian classics, then the descendants of the Mo family in later generations can also find the truth of the Mo family from the Confucian classics, is this very reasonable?" This person's words made Liu Ying a little confused, but it seems that this is indeed the truth.
Seeing that Liu Ying stopped talking, this person understood that the opportunity was fleeting, and immediately added, "Your Majesty, the learning of the Mo family originates from Confucianism and surpasses Confucianism. Your Majesty, as a member of the Mo family, surpasses the ancients and the present in terms of knowledge and ability, and will be able to find the essence of my Mo family in the Confucian classics again. ”
"Besides, in fact, except for the Analects, the other classics are not written by my Confucianism, but classics that existed in the Shang and Zhou dynasties in ancient times, and most of the hundreds of schools of thought actually originate from these classics, so how can this be said to be my Confucian classics?"
"Your Majesty is arbitrary, don't you know that many things of the Mo family are actually quite out of place, the world is Your Majesty's world, how can you choose the virtuous and virtuous people in the world, such mistakes and omissions must not be the ideas of my Mo family, but the omissions and tampering with the incompetent descendants of later generations!"
After saying this, Liu Ying couldn't help laughing, and then appointed this young man named Dong Zhongshu to become the compiler of the new "Book of Ink", responsible for part of the compilation of the new "Book of Ink".
A Confucian Confucian scholar actually compiled the classics of the Mohists, which sounds very outrageous, but it is also very in line with Liu Ying's interests, and even makes up for a big problem in Mohist thought, that is, disrespect for the emperor.
Mohist thought disappeared after the unification of the world, largely because their thinking was too advanced, and Mozi advocated that all officials, nobles, and even emperors should choose the best people in the world, that is, to elect the government.
This was not achieved after 2,000 years, let alone 2,000 years ago, so Dong Zhongshu stuffed his own Confucian theory of great unification, as well as his own induction of heaven and man, etc., into the Mo classics, and finally became outrageously the Mo family's ideological inheritance.
Although Confucianism is gone, Confucianism has been reborn through the filthy soil of the Mo family.
Mohist and Confucianism became one.
The effect of this merger was very amazing, and it was often said that the reason why China was beaten by various powers in the later period was because of Confucian problems.
In fact, there is no big problem with Confucianism, and in some places it can even be said to be an extremely advanced doctrine, but Confucianism does have a huge problem, that is, it does have a great problem with science, calling them miraculous tricks, and thinking that these are things that undermine social stability.
And now, with the integration of Confucianism and Mo, the biggest shortcomings of Confucianism have been filled, and the newly born doctrine has been able to maintain the existence of a unified country to the greatest extent and be more able to support the development of science, so the entire Han Empire has embarked on an unimaginably high-speed development path.
Under his auspices, in just three years, the Han Empire developed flintlock pistols, blast furnace iron-making methods, steam engines and other things.
Well, this is not a joke, it only took three years for Liu Ying to create these super artifacts that can trigger the industrial revolution, after all, Liu Ying wrote in his previous life, and what he wrote was this kind of scientific and technological revolution in the low-tech world.
At the same time, Liu Ying also attaches great importance to logic and authenticity, and when creating, it is inevitable to consider which simple technologies and equipment upgrades should be introduced in the social environment at that time, and then which technology upgrades should be carried out, and finally the science and technology tree will be lit up little by little.
This is completely different from those authors who travel back in time and only know how to make soap and glass, and for the sake of authenticity, Liu Ying will conduct strict verification of each technology, and has a large amount of technical information in his hands, even including many technical details and the composition ratio of some materials, exercise and smelting technology, etc.
Although Liu Ying was also very strange after crossing over, why he could only remember the approximate technical information at most, which would be as clear as if stored in his head, there was no doubt that with these technologies and the blessing of all the national forces of the entire Han Dynasty, it was not strange that Liu Ying could make a steam engine and a flintlock pistol within three years.
Then it seems that the next step is to declare war on the Huns?
The answer is not so, Liu Ying often conducts a lot of plot deduction when she writes. Then he found that if he discovered any new technology as he did in it, and immediately promoted it without regard for the people's power, then there would be only one result, that is, it would be completely destroyed like the previous Qin Dynasty.
In fact, with the help of Qin Mo, the Qin Dynasty also got a lot of new technologies, such as the technology of Chidao, as well as various exquisite construction techniques, weapon smelting technology, etc., but Qin Shi Huang was too anxious, and built a large number of new Chidao, built the Great Wall, and almost drained the people's power.
If you want the industrial revolution to break out, it is important to share the benefits so that everyone in the world can benefit from the industrial revolution, so that the whole revolution can be promoted, rather than rushing into war.
So Liu Ying first designed a large number of civilian equipment around the steam engine, which greatly improved the productivity of the society, such as waterwheels and windmills, which are all technologies that can make land productivity explode.
When the population that the land could support increased so much that many people had nothing to do, a large number of factories began to be built to recruit workers, countless steelmaking blast furnaces were erected, a large amount of steel was made into railroad tracks, and then railroad tracks from the capital Chang'an to the Han Empire in all directions began to be laid, especially from the Han Empire to the Xiongnu border, and so on.
Twelve years later, although the Han Dynasty has not yet started a war with the Xiongnu, but the railroad tracks of the Han Dynasty have been extended to Yunzhong County, and telegraph machines and other equipment are also set up in each county town, and any wind and grass can be transmitted to the center at the first time, and then an elite army of tens of thousands of people can reach any area of the border by railway, only one and a half days to reach any area of the border, and since then there is no so-called surprise attack in the face of the Huns, as long as they cannot announce the city within three days, That would inevitably attract tens of thousands of Han troops to besiege them, with heavy casualties.
The development of domestic productive forces has reached almost the same level as the productivity in the early stage of the industrial revolution, and the population has doubled in the past 12 years.
As a result, a large-scale, outward expansion of the Han nation, which was hailed by later generations as a hundred years of the era of great spread, slowly kicked off.
