Chapter 3 Planning
In a blink of an eye, more than a month passed.
During this period, Zhang Hao and the other six were familiar with the Zhenguan era of the Tang Dynasty.
Now we are ready to plan how to better integrate into this era.
"I am familiar with the imperial examinations of the Tang Dynasty. They mainly take the Mingjing and Jinshi subjects. The Mingjing subjects are all knowledge of memorization and memorization, while the Jinshi subjects are mainly test strategies and poetry. The Mingjing subjects are easy to take the Mingjing subjects, but difficult to take the Jinshi subjects..."
Li Bai was teaching Chongzhen the Tang Dynasty imperial examination knowledge and experience.
The Ming Dynasty imperial examinations were very different from the Tang Dynasty, and Chongzhen needed to learn again.
The two have decided to take the imperial examination and become officials. Li Bai was trying to fulfill his dream, and Chongzhen focused on experiencing what it is like to be an official and to try whether he could be a good official or a high-ranking official.
Chongzhen listened carefully, and then he was a little worried: "My poems are average, and I'm afraid it's difficult to get the Jinshi exam."
Zhang Hao, who was standing beside him, smiled and said, "It's simple. You should remember a lot of poems. Anyone who comes from three years after Zhenguan can be used."
Upon hearing this, Li Bai and Chongzhen looked at Zhang Hao with contempt. They were ashamed of such plagiarism. How could they do it?
Zhang Hao shrugged, with different ideas, so he just said it casually.
"You guys go ahead and I'll learn martial arts from Bai Qi and Yue Fei."
Zhang Hao quickly ran away so that the two scholars would not preach to him.
After Bai Qi and Yue Fei came here, they had to practice martial arts every day. Their bodies were "new" and their martial arts needed to be practiced again.
Zhang Hao learned some things from time to time, and it was also good to use it for self-defense.
The martial arts ceremony only began when Wu Zetian was in the time of Wu Zetian, so if Bai Qi and Yue Fei wanted to be military officers, they could only join the army and make achievements step by step.
"Brother, I'm really not ready to join the army. Now is a good time. There will be a big battle to fight next year and the next year, which is a great opportunity to make achievements."
Zhang Hao asked while practicing martial arts with Bai Qi.
In the Zhenguan year in history, that is, in 627, there was a division within the Eastern Turks. Xueyantuo, Huihe, and Bayegu, who opposed Jie Li Khan, were dissatisfied with their reform of national customs and the implementation of government orders, and established Xueyantuo as Khan.
Tuli Khan also secretly contacted Tang and broke with Jie Li Khan. At the same time, the Eastern Turks encountered heavy snow climates, and most of the livestock were frozen to death and starved to death, and the Turkic power gradually weakened.
In the third year of Zhenguan, Emperor Taizong of Tang appointed Li Jing, Li Shiji, Chai Shao, Li Daozong and others as the general managers of the march and sent troops to fight against the Eastern Turks.
In the fourth year of Zhenguan, in March 630, Jie Li was defeated and captured, and the Eastern Turks were destroyed. The Tang Dynasty established the governor's offices of Shun, You, Hua and Chang in the former place of Turks, and Jie Li Khan. The governor's offices of Dingxiang governor's offices and Yunzhong governor's offices.
In other words, there will be big battles next year and the next year, which is a good time to make achievements. If you miss it, you will have to wait for other opportunities.
"Isn't it still a year left? Let's wait and see."
Bai Qi wants to rest and talk about it, and he has the same virtue as Zhuge Liang.
However, Yue Fei is more active and is preparing to join the army this year.
"I'll try it first, it will be convenient for my elder brother to come."
Yue Fei flew with a spear in his hand and said.
Zhang Hao nodded, then gave an idea: "When you have a certain official position, you can take out the firearms and you will definitely get a heavy reward from the court and be promoted and promoted!"
Black gunpowder Zhang Hao can configure it, and simple muskets can also be made.
However, Chongzhen knew many ways to make firearms, including cannons.
With these firearms helping, Bai Qi and Yue Fei have great potential in the career of military officers.
Zhuge Liang was so idle that he was preparing to teach in the village’s private school to teach the village’s children.
Isn’t it beautiful to want to live a leisurely pastoral life? Teach, take a walk, read, write, play the piano, raise flowers and fish...
Prepare for the imperial examinations, prepare for the imperial examinations, practice martial arts, and leisurely.
Zhang Hao had what he wanted to do. First, let someone prepare an experimental workshop, and then find the tools and materials needed. If necessary, you can hire some craftsmen.
In the next few days, Zhang Hao was busy using tools and materials from this era to make paper better than Tang Dynasty paper, and at the same time doing movable type printing, as well as trying to make perfumes, soaps, etc.
Zhuge Liang was very curious about how to make paper and how to make movable type printing. He has been following Zhang Hao these days, watching and learning.
"The materials, processes and methods used are very different from the manufacturing of Cailun paper!"
Zhuge Liang sighed: "Human wisdom is indeed infinite.
There is also this movable type printing technique. I think it is simple after understanding it, but not everyone can think of this method.”
Zhang Hao nodded: "Many new things are often caused by inadvertently. Especially in ancient times, because few people specialize in research. Farmers farm, scholars study, officials become officials, and businessmen do business, no one specializes in researching technology. They look down on these technologies and regard them as inferior and disdainful.
But it is precisely because of the research and development of these technologies that society will progress and people can live a better life.”
Zhuge Liang could understand: "It is indeed worth reflecting. Since the Han Dynasty abolished all schools of thought and respected Confucianism, the various schools of thought have declined and have been suppressed and have no status. Over time, not many people have studied technology.
It now seems that from stone tools to bronze tools, to iron tools, steel, fire tools... every time it will bring about earth-shaking changes, and these technologies are driving history forward.
Now I think about it, I went from the way to the point where I had to abandon the Confucianism, and then went further and further, and eventually fell behind and was beaten... The lesson was heavy!"
I sighed when I heard Zhang Hao say that after the Qing Dynasty, China was bullied by other countries in the world and almost destroyed the country and the race was destroyed.
Zhang Hao said: "No matter whether it is a dream or not, since we have come to the Tang Dynasty, we should bring some new things to make this era better."
Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "It depends on you futurers, I will learn it."
I'm so modest!
...
More than two months have passed.
The Sun family in Sanshi Village welcomed a happy event, and the eldest brother Bai Qi got married.
The woman is also from Chang'an, not far apart. Her surname is Xu and Xu Jie, who is one year younger than Bai Qi and is eighteen years younger than Bai Qi.
If it hadn't been for the three years of mourning for Mr. Sun, he would have been married before.
In ancient times, it was normal to get married at the age of fifteen, not to mention that the population was small in the early Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty. The court had policies to encourage early marriage and more children. If they did not get married at the age of eighteen or nineteen, they would be leftover men and women, and they would be punished by the government.
"Don't laugh, you guys are next!"
Faced with the jokes from Zhang Hao and other brothers, Bai Qi was preparing to arrange a marriage for the brothers and give it back.
To adapt to this era and integrate into it, you must try your best to follow the local customs, so Bai Qi had no objection.
On the contrary, because I lived for a lifetime, I became much more open-minded.
Besides, young bodies do need women now.
