"Meng Ling, this guy is Zhang Liao, and he is from the same family as you."
Su Fan listened to Zhang Jue and described the development of Taiping Road in the past few years, with a look of satisfaction on his face.
Taiping Dao has developed explosively in the past few years, and there are more and more disciples. Although many of them are just make-up, most of them have been taught for two or three years.
Literacy is no problem, and after learning simple medical knowledge and farming knowledge, when he arrives in each village, he becomes a "big shot" in the village.
After all, in ordinary villages, whether they are village elders or village chiefs, these people only know a few words at most.
As for medicine and farming knowledge, they don't know much.
Therefore, these disciples were very popular once they arrived in the countryside. As a result, Taiping Tao quickly took root in the countryside.
Su Fan's previous advice to Zhang Jiao, the policy of surrounding cities with rural areas, has also been implemented.
Although the city is more prosperous and has more talented people, most of the city is controlled by aristocratic families. Taiping Dao preaching there will only attract the attention of these noble families.
Taiping Dao has developed so far that it is natural that it will not be afraid of any aristocratic families. Even the top aristocratic families are just like children in front of Taiping Dao.
After all, the leader of the current Taiping Dao, Zhang Jiao Laodao, is the top master of the Earth Immortal Division. In the entire Liu Han Dynasty, there are probably no more than three people who can surpass Zhang Jiao.
In addition to Zhang Jiao Lao Dao, who is in the Earthly Immortal Realm, there are five remaining experts in the Taiping Dao who are in the Divine Refining Realm alone.
If you are in the God Refining Realm in one state, you will be the most powerful one.
In a big state like Jizhou, there are no more than five masters in the God Refining Realm.
In terms of top masters, Taiping Dao is quite powerful. For a force as powerful as Prince Yuan's Mansion, there will not be more than three people in the realm of refining gods.
Of course, Prince Yuan's Mansion, which has an army of millions, can possess more than three people with the power of the God Refining Realm.
After all, a golden elixir general who is a military strategist can lead a hundred thousand elites to form a military formation, which is enough to compare with the fierce generals of the God Refining Realm.
However, there are also many inheritances from Taiping Dao military strategists. There are at least a dozen martial arts disciples who have cultivated the golden elixir. This has also increased explosively in recent years.
Because of the training resources provided by Su Fan, these people have benefited from it, and they have improved rapidly one by one.
Once the power of Taipingdao is revealed, it is absolutely amazing.
However, because Zhang Jiao followed Su Fan's suggestion and chose to be in the countryside, and the base camp was established in a valley, the power of Taiping Road was hidden.
Although there are preaching bases in Taiping Dao in major cities, they usually display the golden elixir or the Qi practitioners under the golden elixir.
Those noble families have no ill intentions towards Taiping Dao. After all, the Dao sect itself has always been attractive to many aristocratic families.
The Taoist sect produces masters, and many disciples from aristocratic families are willing to send their disciples to the mountains.
Although Liu Han only respected Confucianism, the status of Taoism has never changed. Taiping Dao is also a branch of Taoism.
As long as Taiping Dao does not touch the interests of these noble families, they will naturally not offend Taiping Dao.
Therefore, those Taiping Dao disciples in the city also live a better life and can collect more information for Taiping Dao.
At the same time, it was also slowly corroding and winning over the officials of the imperial court.
Taiping Dao followed the policy of surrounding cities from rural areas, but this did not mean that it gave up on cities. In the future, when troubled times came and the princes began to stand on their own, Taiping Dao could take advantage of the situation and rise up.
It is a policy to surround the city from the countryside, but the city is also a symbol of wealth. To start an uprising on the Taiping Road, a large amount of wealth will naturally be needed.
Rural areas, on the other hand, can only provide manpower, but their financial resources are relatively far behind. Moreover, the talents needed for future uprisings are also far behind in rural areas.
Although it can be cultivated, there is still a lot of difference after all.
In the city, there are also many unappreciated talents. In recent years, Taiping Road has indeed encountered many.
The Liu Han court, as usual in history, did not have an imperial examination system, but talent selection, it was also an examination system.
It all relied on recommendation. The imperial examination system that appeared faintly in Da Qin did not even make an appearance in Liu Han.
Apparently he was eliminated by those wealthy families.
After all, if a wealthy family wants to increase their strength and influence, they naturally want to expand the number of officials in their family in the court.
As for the imperial examination system, for them, they would still have to give up part of it, and the officials who inspected the imperial examination system were completely under their control.
As a result, many disciples from small families or poor families have almost no promotion channels, unless they become disciples of other families and then slowly wait for recommendations from those aristocratic families.
There are more and more unappreciated talents. At this time of Taiping Road, it is also time to seize the opportunity.
In the years since Taiping Dao was established, it has also attracted many officials from the imperial court. Here in Jizhou, many prefectures have guests from Taiping Dao.
It has a certain influence on many prefectures.
In this way, Taipingdao actually has some recommendation capabilities.
After all, some of the eunuchs were friends with Zhang Jiao and his disciples. In this era, metaphysics was still very popular.
Moreover, many officials are eager for Taoists to talk about Taoism. Most of the officials come from aristocratic families, and they are not just literary practitioners. Confucianism also has a cultivation inheritance, but compared to Taoism, it is still far behind.
It is recognized that most Taoists are masters, so many children from aristocratic families are very willing to make friends with these Taoists.
It is precisely because Taipingdao has such a channel for advancement that not only some of its own disciples enter the officialdom, but it also recruits some frustrated and humble disciples and recommends them to enter the officialdom.
Although most of these disciples from poor families have good inheritances, their abilities are indeed not too bad, and they may not be able to reach high positions.
However, if they occupy some official positions in one county and one county, if there is any trouble in Taiping Dao in the future, these people will also be able to provide great help to Taiping Dao.
Not to mention the hasty nature of the Taiping Dao Rebellion in history, its influence on counties and counties was too low. If some of them were officials, it might be different.
Now after Su Fan's advice, Zhang Jiao's Taiping Dao has held back and not taken the initiative. As long as he is not the first to raise a banner to rebel and wait for others, then the future development of Taiping Dao will definitely be much smoother.
At least now, Taipingdao has developed very much in the countryside. It can even be said that the rural land is almost completely controlled by Taipingdao.
In many villages and towns, those Taiping Dao disciples are more effective than the village elders.
Those village chiefs listen to Taiping Dao disciples. It is conceivable that if there is an uprising in Taiping Dao in the future, even if everyone in these villages is a Taiping Dao person, it will not be too difficult to win them over. ()
