"Your Majesty, this is the army that Taiping Dao has built in the past few years." "Please give me your guidance, Your Majesty."
In the valley, Zhang Jiao took Su Fan to a military camp.
The valley here is the base camp of Taiping Road. The entire valley is surrounded by mountains. There are only two passages leading to the outside world, but these two passages are under two thousand-foot mountain walls.
The intersection of the passage is only a hundred feet wide, and there are layers of checkpoints set up by the Taiping Road. It can be said that one man can block the barrier and no one can open it.
The valley was like a small plain. Su Fan could see that there seemed to be traces of opening up the valley.
"This place has expanded a bit after several years of development."
Zhang Jiao was also somewhat proud. Originally, the plain in the valley was not as big as it is now, but after he and a few disciples opened up the plain, the plain in the center of the valley covers almost thousands of square kilometers.
Nowadays, there are hundreds of thousands of people in this valley, almost reaching one million. It was actually a bit stressful to support so many people at first.
But with the development of the valley to this point and the increase in productivity, even if it reaches one million people, it does not need external funding and can be completely self-sufficient.
Su Fan could naturally see that the productivity in this valley was already very high, comparable to that of the 1930s and 1950s, and even reached the level of the 1960s.
This valley can be said to be the essence of Taiping Road, and most of the technology factories are located here.
Of course, the three major steelmaking plants on Taiping Road are not here. There are only original steelmaking plants and the earliest research and development base here.
Zhang Jiao's ability is indeed not bad. He has managed this valley very well, with hundreds of thousands of people, most of whom are core disciples of Taiping Dao.
The Taoist boys of Taiping Dao all received their education from here, as well as those Taiping Dao disciples who preached.
Although most of them only last for two years, after they go out, they can become the guides of a village. Moreover, these Taiping Dao disciples who go out to guide, after preaching outside for two years, will come back to continue to receive deeper education.
This was not Su Fan's suggestion, it was discovered by Zhang Jiao and others on their own.
Moreover, after two or three years of preaching, these disciples have experienced a lot and often have more profound experiences. They come back to continue to receive more and deeper knowledge, which is of great help to their improvement.
In the future, he will become an important official in Taipingdao's control of the world and local governance.
Kyushu is very big, and Taiping Dao really wants to dominate the world, because those families at the bottom, those aristocratic families, obviously find it difficult to accept the ideas of Taiping Dao. At most, some disciples of enlightened aristocratic families can accept it.
However, most of them are obviously impossible.
In this way, in the future, when Taiping Dao conquers a land, manpower will be needed to govern the place. Ninety-nine percent of the people in the world are illiterate. To conquer the world, we can use the army, but it is difficult for soldiers to govern the world.
This requires local officials, the imperial court is impossible, and the aristocratic families have no hope, so they have to rely on themselves.
Zhang Jiao also understood from Su Fan's suggestion that the world of great harmony they would build in the future on the Taiping Road would be different from the feudal dynasty.
The number of government officials needed by the local government far exceeded that of the Liu Han court.
In fact, there were many officials in the Qin Dynasty. Officials and subordinates were also on the first level of officials. In Da Qin, officials were on the first level. Although officials and subordinates were at the bottom, they had room for advancement.
When the Qin Dynasty reached the county level, in addition to the county magistrates, county magistrates, and county lieutenants, the county officials and assistants below also all had good grades.
Even in the countryside, there are old villagers and village leaders. They are all subordinates and have been recognized by the Qin court. They can also climb up. If they have done enough, they will have the opportunity to become county magistrates.
Unlike Liu Han, the imperial power did not go to the countryside. Instead, it went to the county level, that is, a few officials such as county officials, county officials, and county officials. The remaining officials and subordinates were appointed by these county officials. As for the court, they didn't care at all. They almost didn't care.
There may be opportunities for promotion.
It is precisely because of this that these officials are as dark as the court officials in later generations, and their exploitation of the people is even more rampant.
The imperial court didn't care at all. If it met some officials and county officials with good intentions and justice, maybe this county would be better off.
However, there are really too few of them. After all, most of those who can achieve county honors are the children of wealthy families, and there are only a few from poor families.
These children of aristocratic and wealthy families have lived a privileged life since they were young, and they don't even bother to look at the lower class.
In their eyes, the people at the bottom are just consumables. How can these people care about their lives and lives? As long as they don't rebel, they don't care.
The darkness in such a place is getting darker and darker.
The same is true. Bandits and bandits are everywhere in the place. If you can't survive, then you have to think of other ways.
Of course, most bandits and bandits will not end well.
Don't look at the bandits and bandits who rob here and there at every turn. In fact, they don't succeed very much. Moreover, if they encounter hard problems, they will die passively on their own.
The darkness of the place, especially now, is even more terrifying.
During the Qin Dynasty, those officials who dared to do this would probably be taken away within a week.
The Black Water Ice Platform of Da Qin was very terrifying, even more terrifying than the Jin Yiwei of the Ming Dynasty later.
After all, Blackwater Ice Platform is a department composed of monks, and there are even some Taoist cultivators of innate calculations in it.
They can deduce certain places, look at qi, look at human nature, and observe the world.
For example, when Su Fan looked at Qi, he saw that the world of Kyushu was full of black Qi. These black Qi were almost all the gas of wronged human souls.
Obviously, the more black energy there is in a place, the more resentful energy there is, and the darker the territory there is.
There is such a person in the Black Water Ice Platform of Great Qin. Of course, he cannot be compared with Su Fan. After all, Su Fan's realm is almost that of Daluo Jinxian.
Great Qin's Blackwater Ice Platform may have the combat power of Daluo Jinxian at its peak, but that is still combat power. Blackwater Ice Platform is ultimately a violent organization.
In terms of innate calculation and qi calculation, he is not as good as Su Fan.
But Da Qin has dissipated.
Today, Liu Han has also embarked on a strange journey.
There is black energy everywhere in Kyushu. As the black energy increases, it will form the calamity energy of humanity. The calamity energy of humanity is no better than the calamity energy of heaven and earth.
It's just the massacre of humanity, which means that humanity is about to be reshuffled.
Su Fan felt this very deeply, and Zhang Jiao, a Taoist monk, could also sense it a little bit.
Not as good as Su Fan.
But with Su Fan's advice, he also made full preparations.
Su Fan was very satisfied with the fact that the preaching disciples returned to receive education again. Those disciples who had gone through preaching experience were very experienced in handling local affairs, and they were not just talk on paper. ()
