Chapter 238: Great Qin's First Scientific Expedition
Not long after returning to the Four Seas Palace, Zhang Han came over with the similar textbooks he had compiled.
I took a closer look at it, and there were a total of five textbooks, namely, military thinking, strategic operations, joint coordination, training management, and equipment logistics, all of which were the essence of the essence that I had repeatedly discussed and considered with the officials of the Taiwei Mansion all night.
But as I flipped through them, I frowned, until I skimmed through them all, and I sighed and said, "These textbooks are only superficial, and they don't talk about the essence of warfare in the age of firearms!" ”
I picked up the book of strategic operations and turned to the page on combat methods: "The combat method when training the new army is three teams and two platoons, but that is only limited to the first appearance of firearms on the battlefield, the enemy is not familiar with the combat methods of musketeers, once a large number of musketeers appear on the battlefield in the future, the enemy is familiar with the combat methods of the Qin army, even if they force the formation, they can rush to the musketeers from the middle of the sparse bullets, I have said in my consultation with you that although the formation of the musketeers is the premise of exerting their power, there are also many kinds of formations, How to react in the face of the attack of different enemies, which is not mentioned at all. ”
Zhang Han was a little embarrassed: "Your Majesty, the minister is stupid and didn't take it into account so much, please punish Your Majesty!" ”
I waved my hand and sighed lightly: "Forget it, these textbooks will be left in the palace first, and I will take the time to revise them after teaching Yu Jin and Taiyue every day." ”
After returning from the inspection, I resumed teaching to the people of the Jiangzuo Mansion and the Taishi Mansion, plus dealing with the recitals and revising the teaching materials, Yu Jin also came to me from time to time to discuss the details of some new things, just these few things made me have almost no free time, it's not that I don't want to go to the harem now, it's really no time to go......
The days passed, and I took time to go to the Baijia School Palace in the middle, and carefully read the questions they came out, because the county school palace has not taught modern knowledge, so the test is still something from this era, and there is no problem.
————
On August 17, almost all the candidates had arrived in Xianyang.
The merchants in Fang City have been doing a boom recently, and at least about fifty people have come from each county, adding up to two thousand, four or five hundred! Post houses, restaurants, and stalls are overcrowded everywhere, especially in Xifang City, which is close to the Baijia School Palace, where merchants are so happy that they can't keep their mouths shut, and even the business with Yinglan is also booming a lot.
As soon as there are many outsiders, some people begin to play tricks, this morning Chao Yingjiang made it clear that there are many black-hearted businessmen who take the opportunity to raise prices, I naturally can't tolerate it, and order a strict investigation, isn't this ruining the reputation of the court and slapping me in the face? The emperor is playing tricks at his feet, who will you do if you don't do it!
The sin of these unscrupulous traders will be fines at most in later generations, but in Daqin, I'm sorry, you are destroying weights and measures, affecting the world, I didn't say it, go to Lingnan to farm! I deliberately kept this article when I revised the Qin law back then, Niang Xipi, in the future, I was harmed by you unscrupulous businessmen, and I can't bear you when I come to Daqin?
August 20, there are still three days before the scientific examination, I ordered Zhang Han from the Chaoyi Daying, Li Si from the official in the court to randomly select the guards, invigilators, and marking officers, the selection of the marking officers is still relatively rigorous, basically all of them are the sons of the hundred schools of thought, some of them are still doctors from other counties, three days in advance to enter the Hundred Schools of Science Palace to prepare for the scientific examination.
As for the first main and two deputy examiners, in the first scientific examination, Li Si deserved to be the chief examiner, and the deputy examiners were Feng Zai and Yu He. Many people have guessed this, and I was also selling a guanzi who was not a pass, saving the three people from going to the court.
Everything is ready, on August 23, the whole Xianyangfang City is brightly lit, and the students will go to the Baijia School Palace at the beginning of the year to accept the examination, and then they can enter the examination room.
Because they couldn't go out to eat in the middle of the expedition, the imperial court only provided a lunch at noon, so they had to finish eating before going, otherwise they wouldn't be able to hold out for lunch. The habit of three meals a day has begun to rise in Xianyang, and I ask the princes and ministers to take the lead, even if there is not enough food at home, it is better to eat less than to be hungry and full.
Standing on the gate of Xianyang Palace, the situation of the Baijia Palace can be seen clearly, seeing the students bustling, passing the inspection in turn and entering the examination room, I nodded with satisfaction, just wait for the end of the scientific examination, if you can really select outstanding talents, it is not too late to be happy.
Just as he was watching, Meng He approached and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, there is news about the Xue Palace and Lingnan." ”
I waved my hand, "Stay away." ”
The crowd retreated to the other side of the palace wall.
"Say it."
Meng He knew that I valued Mi Yi the most, and said respectfully: "The clean room has been carefully investigated, and the things before Mi Yi came to Lingnan are well hidden, and the changes in Lingnan over the years have also been earth-shaking, and her true identity has not been investigated." But the time of arriving in Lingnan and the time of acquaintance with Zhao Tuo are basically consistent with what Mi Mu said. According to the clean room investigation, after marrying Zhao Tuo, Mi Yi only lived in Panyu at most, and never went far away, nor did she find that she and the people around Zhao Tuo had been to Changsha. ”
I nodded, with the ability of the clean room, I didn't find out her true identity, either Mi Yi hid it too well, or Mi Mu made it up randomly, this kind of thing would rather be believed, I ordered: "Order the clean room to carefully monitor Zhao Tuo and Mi Yi, Nan Shi's identity has been exposed when Ren is in chaos, don't let him move." ”
Meng He arched his hand and said, "Obey." The matter of the school palace has been proven, and the situation in the counties of Daqin is basically the same as what Du Shan said, and the school palace of thirty people accounts for more than twenty people with children of aristocratic families. There are two reasons, the first is that His Majesty has ordered that all those who fund the construction of the school palace can be chartered, and the second is that those who are either rich or noble are familiar with each other, and the relationship is extraordinary, which involves some entanglements of interests. ”
I smiled slightly, looked in the direction of the Hundred Schools of Learning, and said lightly: "The transformation from the examination system to the imperial examination system is not an overnight thing, at least now that there is this form, it doesn't hurt for them to use some means, if these rich and noble children have real talents and real learning, they can be of great use, and the imperial court will have nothing to lose." As for the selection of students for the next school year, I have my own means to wait for them. ”
Meng He said respectfully: "Your Majesty is wise! ”
My eyes narrowed slightly, and I turned back and ordered, "Even so, I have to beat them up, so that they don't think that I am deaf or blind." The students have submitted their names, places of origin and other information, and asked someone to check it, except for the admission of students, if there is corruption and bending the law, it will be handed over to the imperial history for investigation. They are not stupid, I believe they can understand my attitude! ”
