Turbulent Times Chapter 1418: Easy to know but hard to do

Du Ruhui, Liu Jicheng, Liu Ziming and others breathed a sigh of relief. The former said: "My lord, according to my humble opinion, if you want to take the four counties as your own, you must garrison them to control them after conquering them by force. Send us Only the civil servants can govern the people, and the two complement each other to truly conquer the occupied land. However, the garrison is easy to control, but we still have not enough civil servants.”

Wang Junlin sighed, and said: "As Hui said, what we lack the most is people, and not only civil servants, but also talents from all walks of life, and even ordinary people who can only do coolies. So the solution is as follows: There is actually another way to solve the problem.”

Speaking of this, Wang Junlin paused, glanced at the crowd, and said, "What do you think is a rich country and a strong army?"

Du Ruhui took the lead in saying: "The lowly position thinks that a rich country and a strong army should be based on enriching the people. The way to govern a country is to enrich the people first. If the people are rich, it will be easy to govern. If the people are rich, the country will be rich. The conqueror has a wide land."

Wang Junlin was noncommittal, and Liu Ziming continued, "I think agriculture is the foundation of a prosperous country and a strong army. The so-called 'civilian agriculture leads to land reclamation, land reclamation leads to more millet, and more millet makes the country rich' is the truth."

Wang Junlin still didn't speak, Liu Jicheng thought for a while, and said: "The humble official thinks that we should adopt a combination of political, agricultural, industrial and military measures. The internal affairs are based on military orders, the people's homes, and the affairs of the people. Agriculture, industry, and commerce each have their own business and do their best. Participate in the country and fight against them. The military administration is under the jurisdiction, and the civil administration is under the township, so that the people can farm when they are busy and practice martial arts when they are free. In this way, you can make The country maintains strong economic, political, and military strength in peacetime, and has a solid foundation to defend the country and defeat the enemy in wartime. The rules are solid, and the attack leads to victory.”

Liu Jicheng spoke very comprehensively this time, and also grasped Wang Junlin's current strategy in several counties under his command. But seeing that Wang Junlin's expression remained unchanged, everyone knew that what Liu Jicheng said did not satisfy the prince, and when he was thinking hard, no one spoke for a while.

Seeing this, Wang Junlin said: "What the three of you said are all truths, but although I don't know how many people in the world can recognize these truths, I know that Fanyang College, which has only been established for two years, is not.

Few students have this insight. "

Wang Junlin clearly stated that there was nothing surprising about what the three of them said, and there were many people who knew about it. With the identities of Du Ruhui, Liu Ziming and Liu Jicheng, he couldn't help but feel feverish. But then Wang Junlin said: "But the Sui Dynasty occupies the most affluent land, with a large population, and our China has accumulated thousands of years. It should be the country with the most talented people in the world. I believe in these principles. More. But why did the Sui Kingdom fall into this situation after 30 years of its establishment, and only my Fanyang County has become a paradise."

Liu Jicheng said: "This is because things in the world are easier to know than to do."

Du Ruhui said: "This is because Fanyang County has a wise lord like the prince."

Du Shihui said it very boldly. The term 'holy master' already implied that Wang Junlin proclaimed himself emperor, but Wang Junlin just smiled and did not accept this divergence. Instead, he said without humility: "The two of you All words are reasonable, but as Liu Jicheng said, knowing is easier than doing. Whoever is doing this is naturally a person who is doing it. However, there is never a shortage of people in the Sui Dynasty, and there are more people. Why do they do it better than me in Fanyang County? It’s much more difficult. I’m not humble either, and it’s due to my own guidance and promotion, but the actual work needs someone to do it. But this person is different.”

Shen Guoer suddenly remembered a sentence that Wang Junlin often talked about-the ultimate mystery that determines everything-is a person, and couldn't help but a flash of inspiration in his heart, and blurted out: "The king's intention is to make the country rich and the army strong." The key is people."

Wang Junlin smiled slightly, nodded approvingly, and said: "The ultimate mystery that determines everything is people, more precisely, it is talents that determine the prosperity of a country, or the most important and precious thing in this world is always talents. Because everything needs someone to implement and implement it in the end. No matter how good the strategy is, no matter how good the idea is, if no one can turn it into reality, or if there is a mistake in the implementation process, it will be in vain. Therefore, I control Fanyang County After that, no matter how difficult the finances were, the promotion of emphasizing culture and revitalizing education has never been delayed.”

When everyone heard the words, they all suddenly realized, and carefully recalled the past two years, the Fanyang Academy in the county, the Fanyang Military Academy on the Snake Island, and the dozens of artisan trainings established in Yancheng relying on workshops

Schools, schools in the counties. Last year, after the prince suddenly and easily invented the invention of movable type printing, there were bookstores in all counties, as well as cheap books in bookstores.

This level of promotion of culture and education, the number of schools built is unheard of, not to mention Fanyang County and other remote seaside counties, even the places where the capitals of the Central Plains dynasties have never done this. And all of this is not for the purpose of cultivating talents.

However, Wang Junlin sighed again at this time, and said: "However, the talents cultivated by our Fanyang County are not counted by the Military Academy, and it will take at least a year before they can be used. The students have graduated. Now we want to enter the other four counties in Hedong. However, with the current strength of our Far East Army, we can’t say that it will be smooth sailing to capture these four counties, but it will only happen sooner or later. It's abominable, it's already rotten, and the common people don't have the slightest trust in the government. The so-called Wenzhiwugong, the way of martial arts, for the land of the four counties, now my Far East Army has no shortage, what is lacking is Wenzhi... Conquering territory is easy, but how to win people's hearts is the hardest part. If you don't work **** it, you won't be able to do it alone. And this is the most important issue we need to consider before we attack the four counties."

Everyone looked solemn and dignified, expressing their deep opinion.

Wang Junlin also said: "Over the past year or so, we have indeed summed up a set of practical and feasible methods of governing the local area in Fanyang County, and it seems that the effect is very good, but the premise is that our grain production is far higher. In other places, the common people can eat enough.

But the most taboo thing in the world is to follow the dogma in everything. You must know that specific things should be analyzed in detail. The governance law that can be implemented in Fanyang County may not be suitable for the four counties. In fact, to put it bluntly, it is a question of talents. We need talents who know how to govern the local area and who are also familiar with the four counties. We promote culture and education, and the talents we cultivate will not be used in a short time. Therefore, we need ambitious people from the four counties and even the whole world to vote. This requires a benchmark with a thousand gold and bones, and Wei Zheng will be our benchmark. And after more talents join us, a little training will be the best candidate for us to control and govern the people at the bottom after the war. "
