It is said that Xiong Wuliang's fiefdom was prosperous thanks to the help of these great talents.
The three families of Nong, Bing and Mo pledged their allegiance to Marquis Quyang in public and were immediately put into great use by Qu Yuan.
A group of masters and disciples served as officials and officials, which greatly promoted the construction speed of Xiong Wuliang's fiefdom.
And these theoretical masters can also mutually confirm their own theories through practice, thereby taking their knowledge a step further... For example, the Mohists were inspired by the hydraulic forging machinery created by Xiong Wuliang, and had new ideas on the art of mechanism...
It’s truly a win-win!
In comparison, the Confucian masters and disciples who fled from Chu State in panic were miserable——
After leaving Quyang County, the Confucian people thought that they could no longer stay in Chu State, so they migrated all the way north, and their first stop was Qi State.
King Qi Tiandi first received these famous Confucian scholars ceremoniously, but after he learned in detail the reasons why these unlucky people left Chu State... his attitude suddenly became cold.
How talented is my foster father? Dare to challenge his old man?
Marquis Quyang gave you food, shelter, and hospitality during the war...but then he wanted to retaliate? Want to embarrass Marquis Quyang in public?
The point is, this embarrassment didn't work out... but he was slapped in the face by Qu Yanghou?
"My foster father is indeed a great talent! Not only can he be invincible on the battlefield, but he is also no worse than you Confucian scholars who claim to be well versed in the classics and meanings in debates!" Tian Di mocked.
"Speaking of which - Marquis Quyang is my honorary prime minister of Daqi!"
"You are in trouble with us, the Prime Minister of Qi and our great benefactor...how dare you step into the territory of Qi?"
"Left and right, fight me out!" Tian Di said with a wave of his hand.
A group of Confucian scholars fled Qi State in embarrassment, looking at a loss...
As time went by, Xiong Wuliang's exposition at Quyang Academy quickly spread throughout the world... Depressed talents everywhere were tempted!
Marquis Quyang said it clearly - there is no school of thought in employing people, the art of employing people is to show knowledge!
What does this mean? All schools of thought can be reused by him!
For a time, talented people from various countries who claimed to have special skills traveled long distances to the Chu State to see the famous Qu Yanghou's "employment skills".
How embarrassed the Confucian people are, I will not express it for the time being.
Xiong Wuliang's argument was actually able to defeat a Confucian giant who was always known for his eloquence... It really shocked the world!
The news continues to ferment...
Speaking of which, the name of Quyanghou has not appeared on the desks of major monarchs for a long time. In the past long time, Chu State has made many big moves, such as the Qi-Chu Alliance and the three kingdoms of Wei, Han and Chu. But Quyanghou was once in the limelight. The great hero of Chu State disappeared.
Many people even speculate that this powerful little prince may have lost the internal political struggle in Chu State, and his name may never be heard again.
In Chu State, there are quite a lot of such bad things——
For example, Wu Qi, the former general, won many battles on the battlefield. He once frightened the surrounding countries and gave the Chu State a sign of rejuvenation... Didn't he eventually fall into the hands of the Chu people themselves?
Unexpectedly, Xiong Wuliang has been lying low for so long... Once his reputation spreads, he will shock the eyes of all the countries in the world!
Marquis Quyang, you are worthy of being named!
…
Zhao State, Handan.
King Zhao Yong had just taken a hot bath, wrapped in a thick robe, and walked out in high spirits to meet with his confidants.
Many right-hand men and women, such as the confidant and veteran Fei Yi, the young master Zhao Zhang, and the general Lou Xu were all present.
The current image of Zhao Wang Zhao Yong can be described as disrespectful, but all the Zhao generals present turned a blind eye and looked at their king feverishly.
The State of Zhao, under the leadership of Zhao Yong, had just completely destroyed the State of Zhongshan, bringing Zhao State's territory and national power to its peak!
The Hu cavalry units previously collected, plus Zhao's own old infantry and chariot teams, as well as the newly expanded troops... Zhao now has an army of 200,000, and most of them are battle-hardened warriors.
If the war is critical, more troops can even be added.
To the Zhao generals, it doesn't matter how 'disrespectful' their hero is, as long as he can lead them to defeat powerful enemies step by step, that is the idol they are willing to worship wholeheartedly.
"Xiong Liang's lofty remarks from Chu State are indeed thought-provoking." Zhao Yong smiled cheerfully and stroked his mottled beard: "This man is really a strange person!"
All the ministers of Zhao State nodded.
Zhao Yong took a long breath: "The world's theories, regardless of superiority or inferiority, are all outstanding in their respective fields... Only the skill of using people is the foundation."
"This is a great kindness!"
Fei Yi stood up and held up his hands: "Your Majesty tried hard to promote Hufu riding and archery in Zhao State, but encountered a lot of resistance... But facts have proved that adhering to the ancestral system cannot make our Zhao State stronger. Only adapting to local conditions and changing policies can. The way to a strong nation.”
"The three kings have different laws, and the five emperors have different governance - the one that is suitable is the best."
"Now it seems that there are similarities between the king's reform strategy and Xiong Liang's remarks."
Zhao Yong stroked his beard and smiled.
Fei Yi, an old minister, always made Zhao Yong feel good about what he said.
At that time, Zhao Yong faced numerous resistances and vigorously promoted Hufu riding and shooting. For this reason, he did not hesitate to offend many old nobles of Zhao State... Now it seems that this is the decision that Zhao Yong is most proud of.
Otherwise, how could Zhao successfully incorporate the Linhu and Loufan tribes in the north?
How can we have a powerful elite light cavalry?
How could he conquer such a huge territory and make Zhao State unprecedentedly powerful?
Although today's Zhao State has hardly engaged in large-scale military campaigns with the Central Plains powers, Zhao Yong knows in his heart that Zhao State's comprehensive national strength is already a top power; in terms of military strength alone, it is one of the best.
"Marquis Quyang... This man is a great talent, and he can be of great use in both military and political affairs..." Zhao Yong sighed: "If I could get this man to serve me, I would rather lose ten years of my life!"
All the generals smiled one after another, and finally advised together: "Your Majesty, we are all veterans and warriors, and we consider ourselves to be no less than the Marquis of Quyang."
"If there is a war with Chu in the future, Zhao's elite cavalry will naturally teach the arrogant and hegemonic Chu people a huge lesson."
"Right now, it's still important to plan for next year's war..."
Zhao Yong laughed loudly and said boldly: "Yes! Yes! All the generals here are all great talents. If I were really allowed to choose, I would not want to lose any general even if I lose ten years of my life in vain... "
All the Zhao generals were very excited.
Zhao Yong smiled, wrapped up his robe, and then turned his gaze to the huge mountain and river map hanging on the wall that he regarded as a treasure... Finally, his eyes were fixed on the westernmost part of the map, with a pair of big eyes. Bright and bright.
This is where Qin is!
