The Nameless of the Common Clans

In the third year of Jian'an, Cai Yong's death was like a signal, and the world seemed to have suddenly returned to peace. After Cao Cao captured Xuzhou, he began to cultivate land on a large scale, and Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan also temporarily ceased fighting. But at this time, anyone with a discerning eye could see that the richest Zhuo County in Youzhou had fallen into Yuan Shao's hands, and half of Youzhou was no longer under Gongsun Zan's control. Qingzhou was completely in Yuan Shao's hands, and Gongsun Zan's defeat was only a matter of time. Chen Mo began to divide the academy into layers under the auspices of Ni Heng, and began to form a relatively complete system, and Ni Heng was still tirelessly improving it.

"Ni Heng also has this ability?" Suiyang, Cao Cao's mansion, looking at the latest information from Guanzhong, Cao Cao was a little unbelievable. If he had known that Ni Heng had this ability, Cao Cao would not have chased him away. The most important thing was that since Ni Heng had this idea, why didn't he use it on Cao Cao's side, but instead scolded him everywhere.

Maybe Ni Heng didn't find the right direction at that time, or was too eager to become famous?

Xun Yu and others thought uncertainly, and their eyes couldn't help but look at Guo Jia who was sitting with Cao Cao.

Guo Jia has been in mourning these days. When Cai Yong died, not only Chen Mozhi held a memorial ceremony such as banning alcohol, but Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Liu Biao, Lu Bu, and even Sun Ce and Gongsun Zan in Jiangdong also held similar memorial ceremonies. As a disciple of Cai Yong, Guo Jia had misunderstandings, but just as Cai Yong never forgot this disciple until his death, how could Guo Jia really forget his teacher? But now it's too late to say anything, and there's no way to see Cai Yong for the last time. Guo Jia can only express his respect in this way.

"My lord, do you want to follow suit?" Guo Jia looked at Cao Cao and asked.

Just like after Cao Cao started large-scale farming, Chen Mo also followed Cao Cao's example and carried out farming in Guanzhong and Luoyang. Cao Cao also kept learning from Chen Mo's new technologies. Cao Cao even studied the manure made by Chen Mo himself, but later he really couldn't find the way, so he had to give up and let professionals learn from him.

In short, everyone is imitating and learning from each other. In this era, unless you don't promote technology, it's impossible to be stolen by others.

Now Cao Cao has also made new plows and water wheelbarrows. Guanzhong is constantly recuperating, and Cao Cao has also begun to develop vigorously. However, in terms of system, although Cao Cao has borrowed some of Chen Mo's practices, he can't learn them completely. After all, the composition of the two people's rule is not the same. Bingzhou and Xiliang under Chen Mo's rule are places with relatively few gentry, and the gentry in Guanzhong have long been killed by Dong Zhuo, Li Jue, and Guo Si. The gentry on Cao Cao's side dared to directly instigate people to rebel against Cao Cao, and almost destroyed Cao Cao's foundation.

If Cao Cao really governed like Chen Mo, the Central Plains, which had just calmed down, would be in chaos again. The tolerance of the scholars on both sides was obviously not at the same level.

But everyone was doing the academy thing. Yuan Shao also built several academies, but they were not as popular as Chen Mo's. Liu Biao also built a Xiangyang Academy in Xiangyang.

Cao Cao nodded and said, "This way, more talents can be provided to the court, and both can also consolidate the morale of the army."

Everyone was a wise man. Cao Cao's attitude towards scholars has always been to pull one hand and suppress the other, but this is only temporary. If Cao Cao is there, he can suppress it, but if Cao Cao is not there, whether his descendants can suppress it is a problem, because knowledge has always been in the hands of scholars. Chen Mo's approach is equivalent to cultivating a group of poor people who are loyal to him but cannot be fully recognized by scholars, and the number is huge. Maybe nothing can be seen in a short period of time, but in another ten or twenty years, it will be impossible for scholars to be like today.

Cao Cao naturally wanted to follow suit.

"I think we can learn from it, but we can't completely imitate it. It's different from farming and craftsmen. If we completely imitate it, it may cause unrest." Guo Jia thought.

The main thing is to grasp a degree. For this kind of thing, they don't have the advantage like Chen Mo. They must be cautious and steady. At least before the first batch of talents in the academy come out, they can't make a big fanfare like Chen Mo.

Xun Yu sighed and said, "The most important thing is that the lord also needs a Ni Heng."

If Chen Mo didn't have a talented, offending, and extreme person like Ni Heng to do this, it would be impossible to perfect the entire system so quickly. Chen Mo just nodded and agreed to a plan of his subordinates, and Ni Heng was fully responsible for the execution. If they don't have a famous scholar like Ni Heng to take the initiative to do it, and the court starts to promote it, it will give people a different feeling.

Look at Chen Mo's side. Even if someone scolds him now, it is Ni Heng who is scolded. Even if he complains to Chen Mo, Chen Mo will invite Ni Heng to debate with him. In this regard, Ni Heng does have unique talents. No one in the court can say anything about him. In order to prevent Ni Heng from being plotted against and killed, Chen Mo also specially sent people to secretly protect Ni Heng.

Cao Cao also needs such a person who can attract everyone's hatred and is good at arguing, so that he can be as unscrupulous as Chen Mo.

"Bo Dao can always find the advantages of people, I am not as good as him!" Cao Cao heard this and could only envy and sigh. He sent the person there himself, who can he blame? If he wants to blame, he can only blame himself for not discovering that Ni Heng has this talent.

"I think this matter can be handed over to Kong Wenju." Cheng Yu smiled and said, "Kong Wenju and Ni Heng are close friends. Now that Ni Heng has achieved these achievements, it must be quite happy to entrust this matter to Kong Wenju."

Cao Cao nodded when he heard this. Kong Rong was suitable. Finding something for him to do was better than him looking for things to do every day or writing articles criticizing Cao Cao.

"Kong Wenju is indeed suitable for this matter." Xun Yu nodded.

This matter is of far-reaching significance. In addition to Yuan Shu, even Lu Bu is thinking about establishing a college. However, Lu Bu has almost no literati under his command. How can he study?

In Nanyang, Lu Bu is indeed troubled by this matter.

Nanyang is now under military control. When Chen Mo gave Lu Bu the idea, Lu Bu used it, and it was indeed much easier to govern. Although he couldn't find any famous scholars, he could still find some literate and arithmetic clerks. After all, most of these clerks were from poor families and had to support their families. Lu Bu's conditions were very generous, and he could also become an official. Even if he didn't have much power, it was better to receive the salary given by Lu Bu than to farm at home.

"My lord, why do you suddenly want to build an academy?" That day, Wei Xu and others came to Lu Bu who was discussing the establishment of a school with Zhang Liao.

"All the princes are doing it, and the soldiers in the army also have this expectation." Lu Bu said seriously: "Do you think it is inappropriate?"

"It is not inappropriate." Cheng Lian scratched his head and said: "But my lord, even if the academy is built, who will teach? Before, when we went to look for famous people in Nanyang, Pang Degong ran away in advance after hearing the news."

Lu Bu: "..."

This is indeed a problem, and it is a big problem. At the beginning, Lu Bu just thought that Chen Mo was doing it, Cao Cao was doing it, and Liu Biao was also doing it. It should be a very necessary thing, so he also ordered the construction of a new Nanyang Academy.

But now the problem is here. The academy has been built, but who will teach it?

Before, Lu Bu had thought about kidnapping Pang Degong, but Pang Degong knew the news in advance and fled directly to Xiangyang. Although Lu Bu often extorted food from Liu Biao, they were allies after all, and it was still a bit unkind to directly rob people across places. After all, Liu Biao was a good person. Now Lu Bu only needed to write a letter to complain about the lack of food, and Liu Biao would send people to deliver food, so Lu Bu was embarrassed to do too much.

The famous scholars in Yingchuan also ran away, and Lu Bu couldn't find a place to kidnap people now.

"My lord, we can't teach knowledge, but we can teach war!" Wei Xu's eyes suddenly lit up and looked at Lu Bu.

This is called poverty and change, change and then you will get through, just like the previous governance of Nanyang, when you couldn't find anyone to directly control the military, now that you can't find anyone to teach, why not just teach the art of war directly?

The most learned people on Lu Bu's side may be Lu Bu and Zhang Liao, but when it comes to fighting, they are not bad at all. Not to mention Lu Bu and Zhang Liao, Wei Xu, Cheng Lian, Cao Xing, Hou Cheng, Song Xian, Wei Yue and others all have their own skills, and they seem to be good at teaching disciples.

Lu Bu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he nodded and said, "Maybe it's feasible."

There is no other way. The academy has been built, and many soldiers' children have come here. If there is no one to teach, it will be embarrassing.

If it is to teach the art of war, it is not difficult. Some generals can be selected from the army to take turns to teach the art of war.

But I always feel something is wrong.

Zhang Liao frowned and thought, "My lord, in this way, the whole Nanyang looks like a big military camp."

Now no matter where you go in Nanyang, people are either farming or resting, even in Wancheng. It is rare to see the lively scene like other places, and the people are very serious.

Lu Bu looked at Zhang Liao with some melancholy. He didn't want to be like this, but is there any other way? No one is willing to come out to teach.

"Let's settle this matter." With a sigh, Lu Bu stood up and said, "Each of us should do our own thing."

In general, there has been no war in Nanyang in the past two years. Although the martial law makes the whole Nanyang look lifeless, the taxes have increased year by year in the past two years, and the population has also grown steadily. Without literati, Nanyang will not prosper?

Zhang Liao walked out of the government office with his chin groped, looked at Hu Che'er and Zhou Cang who were guarding the door like door gods, and suddenly asked: "What is the lord doing recently?"

"Reading." Zhou Cang said concisely.

Zhang Liao was not surprised to hear this. Lu Bu now wanted to govern Nanyang well by his own ability and was cramming his knowledge, but this was not what he wanted to ask: "Besides that?"

"General, the lord is either in the government office or at home most of the time. How can we know what's going on at home?" Hu Che'er said helplessly, you are making things difficult for us.

"Forget it~" Zhang Liao had no choice but to leave.
