Kou Zhong was from Yangzhou, his ancestral home was unknown, he was born in a gangster, he never went to school, he was fluent in writing, and he had no nickname... This last point is very strange. Anyone in ancient times who had some status would always ask his teacher to give him a resounding name.
The font size is different from that of the NPCs in the world of "The Legend of Two Dragons of the Tang Dynasty". Nine out of ten have no fonts, which is really a strange thing.
It is said that the game planning team once consulted Mr. Huang Yi, who wrote the original work, in person, and received the reply "I am creating a world where Hu Feng prevails, so there is no description."
Based on respect for the original author, "Adventure" faithfully embodies this point, and almost all NPCs have no expressions.
Of course, this is off topic.
It doesn't matter whether he has a cousin or not. The important thing is that Kou Zhong never went to school.
I particularly emphasize this point, not that someone is discriminating against people with low academic qualifications, but to illustrate that it is really impossible for Kou Zhongshi to have more outstanding talents than Li Shimin in running the country for the king.
If Li Shimin was a first-grade prime minister, Kou Zhong was at best a second- or third-grade general, and he was not suitable for leading an army alone.
It is probably still possible for a person like this to surpass Li Shimin in terms of military force; but to say that he can surpass Taizong, the top three wise emperors in Chinese history, in terms of political strategy, even a child would not believe it.
But Kou Zhong dared to say this and seemed confident.
So even Shi Feixuan, who had always been very calm, couldn't help but raise her tone a bit and asked questions.
"What His Highness the King of Qin said just now is indeed very good. Every one of them is in line with the current situation. He deserves to be a great talent." He first complimented Li Shimin briefly, then turned around and said, "But many of what His Highness the King of Qin said are actually very good."
There are some issues - such as the article 'Easy to teach after chaos' - have you ever seen tiger training? One of the keys to training tigers is to feed the tiger cooked meat, to prevent it from having the opportunity to kill creatures, and not to stimulate it.
The cruel side of nature. In today's troubled times, people often carry weapons when traveling, and the ferocious side of their character has gradually been stimulated. How can we return them to harmony through simple 'enlightenment'?"
"That's why we say we need to destroy revolution and promote culture..."
Li Shimin was interrupted by Kou Zhong when he was halfway through his words: "The reason why I say His Highness the King of Qin is only a prime minister and not an emperor is that this is the key. It is not a bad thing for the people to have a bloody fighting spirit. It just depends on how to guide them."
.The children of the Han family often carry bows and swords, so they can sweep away the Xiongnu and the Han Dynasty. If the bloody fighting spirit of the people is wiped out with culture, how will they deal with the invasion of foreign enemies again? "
"You must bring troops to defeat it!" Yuchi Gong shouted.
"Who doesn't know how to brag!" Kou Zhong said coldly, "Your Li family still has an ambiguous relationship with the Turks. Why don't you raise troops to defeat Jieli Khan?"
"Soldiers come from the people. If there are brave people, there will be brave soldiers. Therefore, it is not a bad thing for the people to be brave." Kou Zhong changed the topic and began to formulate the topic, "I think that after the chaos, we should legislate and enforce rules to order the people.
There are laws to follow, so officials must abide by the laws. Although the people are brave, but there are officials to regulate them, not only can they not cause harm, but they can strengthen the country."
"Severe punishments and severe laws are not the same as those of the Qin Dynasty!" Hongfu Nu immediately retorted.
Kou Zhong suddenly shook his head and sighed: "People are not afraid of having little knowledge, but they are afraid of not being able to read. Since the establishment of the Young Marshal Army, Kou has often studied with the wise and read some books - this eldest sister may not know,
In fact, the laws of the early Han Dynasty were not at all lighter than those of the Qin Dynasty, and were almost the same as those of the Qin Dynasty."
"Then why did the Qin Dynasty II die, but the Han Dynasty lasted for hundreds of years?"
"The key to the fall of Qin lies in the 'abuse of people's power'. Afang Palace, the Great Wall, garrison troops in the north, and conquests in the south... How much people's power can be used in the world? When it is exhausted, the people cannot bear it and naturally want to rebel against Qin. Yang Guang
Isn't it precisely because of this that he lost the hearts of the people of the world!" Kou Zhong shook his head and sighed, "If Yang Guang could do less corvee work and less conquests, we ordinary people would not be crazy, so why would we have to do this rebellious beheading?
Buy and sell!”
These words made everyone sigh, but Kou Zhong said: "His Royal Highness the King of Qin said that 'the middle land is safe, and the people from far away will submit.' Kou also disagreed. The northern land is bitter and cold, and all the barbarians rely on animal husbandry and are fierce by nature.
Chang Si attacks the Central Plains. No matter how stable the Central Plains are, it will only arouse their greed."
"During the time of Shun, there were some seedlings that refused to obey, and Yu was about to attack them. Shun said, 'No way. To practice martial arts without great virtue is not Taoism.' He practiced teaching for three years, performed Qiqi dance, and if there were any seedlings, he obeyed." Kou
Zhong first quoted an ancient text, and then explained, "This Zhigan Qi Wu is a declaration of one's own strength, making Youmiao know that he cannot defeat him, so that he can surrender. Just relying on writing is not enough!"
He did not leave time for Li Shimin to answer, but suddenly raised his voice and said loudly: "From what Kou sees, the way to be a king lies first in selecting talents - this must be done from two aspects. One is
Suppress the clans and avoid the situation where all talents belong to the clans; the second is to promote the imperial examination and widely select from the common people."
"When talents are sufficient, they should be used. This requires the monarch not to influence the state affairs with his own likes and dislikes, and to listen to the opinions of as many officials as possible. After all, the wisdom of many people is definitely better than one - we are mortals, not saints.
."
"In addition, in order to avoid military chaos, it is necessary to strengthen the court's control over middle- and lower-level officers. First, the system of militia corps must be abolished, and then military schools should be established to allow middle- and lower-level officers to concentrate on learning the principles of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, which may reduce rebellion.
"
"The last one is to abolish the trend of metaphysical talk since the Wei and Jin Dynasties, and attach importance to practicality. Mysterious talk cannot rejuvenate the country, only practicality can!" After Kou Zhong said this, he took a long breath, "My way to be a king is
in this way!"
Kou Zhong's reply was not only fluent and without any stagnation, he even used no effort in thinking. Compared with Li Shimin's performance just now after thinking about it, it was completely different, and it matched his heroic appearance and heroic attitude.
His temperament immediately shocks people, and they suddenly feel like "this person is a king".
Even the tough-minded Li Shimin and the concubine Xuan, who had long been as indifferent as water, were also captured by Koo Zhong's momentum and were speechless for a while.
After a while, one of Li Shimin's subordinates shouted angrily: "You are just a village chief, a village elder, and the like. What qualifications do you have to make big talk and talk about the general situation of the world! What qualifications do you have to talk about the way to be a king?"
Kou Zhong smiled contemptuously and ignored him at all.
Now the host and guest have changed, and it is Kou Zhong and the others who have the upper hand. Young Master Kou is not the kind of wimp who says, "When someone hits you on the left cheek, you should also stick out the right cheek for him to hit." What he pursues is
An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. How Li Shimin ignored them just now, he will ignore them in return now.
"Master Qinchuan, what do you think of what Kou said about the way to be a king?"
Master Fei Xuan frowned slightly, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
To be fair, as Kou Zhong said just now, although Li Shimin's argument is very good, it is just the talent of the prime minister, while what Kou Zhong said is the majestic way of the king. Compared with the two, it is better to judge than Kou Zhong.
Li Shimin is more suitable to be king.
But this is only in terms of "people".
To become a king, the most important thing is not the king himself, but the power that the king can possess, the resources that the king can gather and mobilize.
As the saying goes, "Every time comes, the heavens and the earth are all united, and the heroes are not free." No matter how powerful you are, you can't do anything with nothing; but as long as the resources are sufficient and the power is strong, even a mediocre person can enjoy the benefits.
, An An An will be the Taiping Emperor for the rest of his life.
Kou Zhong suffered a loss because of his "shallow foundation".
His young marshal's army has only occupied almost half of Jingxiang so far, and Xiangyang City, which is the core of this area, has not yet been captured. Although his subordinates are said to be fifty thousand, there are only four to five thousand who can really be called elite soldiers.
People; among the generals under his command, there are almost no famous celebrities or generals, and there are no famous masters. Even the only general Cheng Peng is not actually the top person in the world... A person like this is
How can he conquer the world if he really has talent that knows the world?
More importantly, Kou Zhong's young marshal army has appointed Hou Xibai, the leader of the Huajian sect of the Demon Sect, as the mountain leader of the official school, making it clear that the chariot and horse are to support the revival of the Demon Sect. The feud between the Buddhist and Taoist families and the Demon Sect has been entangled for many times.
After a hundred years, there is no possibility of peaceful coexistence. How can she support someone who has such a close relationship with the Demon Sect?
But... her reason told her that Kou Zhong was indeed more talented than Li Shimin and more suitable to be the leader of the world!
In fact, Li Shimin is not necessarily suitable. As Kou Zhong and others said just now, Li Shimin is just the king of Qin, not the crown prince. If he wants to be honored as a great treasure, he will inevitably do some extraordinary things. But if a person can even control his father and brother
If she succeeded, how could she, as a member of the Buddhist sect, dare to entrust the world to such a callous and ruthless villain?
How can a person who doesn't even love his relatives really love everyone in the world?
Even though she repeatedly used words such as "Those who achieve great things don't stick to trivial matters" and "Don't use small benevolence to harm great benevolence" to convince herself, she could not cross the threshold of "morality" in her heart.
Shifei Xuan thought about it, feeling more and more embarrassed, and the jade seal in her arms seemed to be getting heavier and hotter... Suddenly, her spiritual platform cleared, and she realized that the jade seal was indeed changing!
This surprise is no small matter - the Heshi Bi is a rare treasure of the ages, and its aura is unpredictable. Sometimes it can benefit one's cultivation, and sometimes it can cause inner demons. I thought that I was too deep in thought just now, and unknowingly...
Being attracted by the He family's jade stirred up inner demons and almost destroyed many years of cultivation!
