In the great era and under the great tide, everyone has his own place. Even if he lacks some talents in politics, he can still exert his energy in other places. Looking at the whole Han Dynasty, people from every class of society seem to have their own place.
When mobilized, the Han Dynasty was like a huge chariot, rumbling forward, and every seemingly insignificant subject of the Han Dynasty was an indispensable part of this chariot.
Everyone is pushing this chariot, and under the command of the Han Emperor, those who follow me will prosper, and those who go against me will perish.
This trend, the involuntary and exciting feeling, is really novel.
"Second place on the list, Fang Yanqian of the Fang family!" came the voice again.
Everyone's hearts also skipped a beat.
Du Yan's face turned a little pale.
It is impossible to say that I am not nervous at all.
The team that is getting further and further away is getting closer and closer.
"The number one scholar, Du Yan of the Du family!"
The bearer of the good news walked into the open courtyard, followed closely by the sound of gongs and drums.
After a brief period of calm, the Chang'an Guild Hall was drowned in cheers.
Although the performance of the Guanzhong people in this imperial examination was not outstanding, and it was even inconsistent with the situation of the wealthy and famous families in Guanzhong. In fact, among the Guanlong family, there are only a few people like the Hongnong Yang family who have inherited both civil and military families.
Most of them are Wuzong, and their ancestors were mostly generals from the Northern Wei Dynasty. But no matter what, the number one scholar belongs to the Du family and the Guanzhong people. No matter how arrogant those Jiangnan people are, they still can't keep it.
The position of the champion.
The people of Guanzhong can finally feel proud.
When Du Yan looked at the gold list that had been delivered to him, he felt excited and emotional. He knelt down solemnly and took the gold list personally inscribed by His Majesty from the eunuch who announced the decree.
Those who receive the gold medal will be invited to the palace for a banquet tonight. In other words, they are actually white-faced saints. This is simply unimaginable before. After passing an exam, even ordinary people can obtain direct
To have the opportunity to meet a saint and obtain an official position is a feat that has never been done since the beginning of China.
"Your Majesty, Du Yan, thank you for your grace!" Du Yan's voice was trembling.
After being named on the gold list, even if he was not assigned an official position, he was already an official of the Han Dynasty. His title was not "caomin" but "chen".
"Du Gong, please show up. There will be a big banquet in the palace tonight, and Du Gong will be the leader of the team." The chamberlain who announced the decree said with a smile, "Your Majesty, Du Gong must not let down your high expectations."
Judging from the results of Qiu Wei, Du Yan did not have an advantage over Fang Yanqian. This was mainly because Du Yan had already gone south early. When the Han Dynasty entered Guanzhong, he naturally became a subject of the Han Dynasty, while Fang Yanqian
But having gone through the war-torn times, he certainly has better life experience than Du Yan, and the views he puts forward are more realistic.
But in the palace examination, Du Yan finally had a slight advantage, mainly because of his strong idea of "separation of military and political affairs" when answering the middle question.
From ancient times to the present, how to balance military affairs and politics, in other words, how to divide the responsibilities between generals and civilian officials, has always been a very serious and serious issue. Naturally, all dynasties have had headaches over this issue.
Du Yan clearly pointed out that once military generals intervene in politics, especially civil affairs, it is very likely that civil and military power will be in the hands of one person. After that, people will be gathered together, and separatist rule will naturally become logical. In the Northern and Southern Dynasties,
In troubled times, situations like this are not uncommon. In the distance, there is Su Jun's Liyang Rebellion. Nearby, isn't His Majesty also following this path? Of course, Du Yan did not dare to say this clearly.
Since His Majesty also has such a background, of course he would want to avoid this problem from happening again.
Therefore, restrictions should be imposed on both military commanders and civilian officials.
Du Yan directly put forward three points. The first point touched Li Xingchen's mind, which was that the army was prohibited from doing business. Throughout the ages, it was not uncommon for the army to do business, mainly because in the relatively closed environment in ancient times, the army became a liquid
The largest team, coupled with the lack of military pay, etc., the army naturally tends to be able to earn a certain amount of extra money.
In the past, there was no problem with such a situation. When people had no money and no food to eat, they were not allowed to think of their own solutions. Was that to kill them all? More importantly, the ancient army, as long as they did not burn, kill, and loot, they would
It can be considered a good army with strict military discipline. Business and other things are nothing.
But Du Yan made it clear that the military's business would distract the military on the one hand, and on the other hand, it would allow the military to accumulate capital that it should not have. The more capital accumulated, the more ambitious the military would naturally be. At the same time, business and trade are inherently related to each other.
Local civil affairs are closely connected. The military's business is actually equivalent to participating in local civil affairs from another angle, so this can be regarded as curbing the occurrence of this kind of thing from one source.
The second point is also very clear, that is to strengthen the supervision of the military by Yushitai, and even establish a department dedicated to maintaining military regulations and laws. The red lines in the military must not be touched. Before this, the military regulations in the military
It is completely maintained by the generals, chief administrators and others in the army. In fact, the actual implementation is determined by the generals, chief administrators and others in the army. Therefore, setting up a new neutral department can naturally play an additional role.
The role of layer supervision.
This is obviously the military police of later generations, so Li Xingchen will naturally not object to this.
Military regulations and laws have always been the backbone of the Han army. As the scale of the Han army grows larger, this is indeed an issue that the military needs to pay more and more attention to. After all, with the rapid expansion of the army, it is becoming easier and easier to hide in the army.
If there is dirt and pollution, military discipline will naturally become more and more easily corrupted.
The third point, naturally, is to deal with the current logistics supply. Du Yan suggested that Dahan could establish a more systematic grain storage and transportation system to achieve layer-by-layer, level-by-level food storage and transportation. Each place has its own small
Granaries, during wartime, prioritized the transfer of grains from granaries to large granaries and then to the front lines, while temporarily collected grain from local areas was once again filled into local granaries. At the same time, dredging of rivers in various places was stepped up to give full play to southern water transportation.
advantages, thereby speeding up the efficiency of grain transportation.
Regarding the first half of the problem, Li Xingchen was helpless. Of course he knew the benefits of establishing a grain transportation system, but it was still a bit unrealistic at present, mainly because reclamation and farming in many places in Han Dynasty had just started, and storage
It is not impossible to transfer grain in a step-by-step manner, but it will put a lot of pressure on local areas. Many places now may not be able to bear such pressure.
In order to prevent the government from forcing the people to rebel, Li Xingchen did not dare to use too much force.
