"Establishing a county school...this is to promote cultural education! Lord, don't worry, I will handle this matter myself!"
A smile appeared on Shen Yi's face.
No matter what his personality is, he is essentially a scholar. He was a scholar who won the Jinshi and became a high official in the Ming Dynasty. Scholars are always very enthusiastic about imparting knowledge.
In fact, this is understandable. The more scholars there are in a dynasty, the greater the power of civil servants. For every additional scholar, the scribes have one more say.
Wang Jing glanced at him and didn't care.
The right to speak of civil servants and the encroachment of imperial power by civil servants are all things that must be considered after achieving great achievements.
Now he only has three thousand troops and ten generals. What he needs is to seize every opportunity to become stronger.
Whatever can make your power stronger, do it.
What's more, what Wang Jing wants to train are low-level officials, not the scribes who only know how to read sages' books as Shen Yi imagined.
After inspecting the land under his command, Wang Jing ordered the ship to head east.
The water in East Lake is very clear. After crossing the island in the middle of the lake, you can see big fish swimming in the lake. The place where the East Lake Army fishes is in the west. The east side is close to major forces, so it has not been developed.
Wang Jing's eyes flashed with aura and he scanned the area not far away.
"There are quite a few big fish that have reached the first level of life!"
It has been more than half a year since I arrived in this world. Thanks to the blessings of the world, the animals and plants in the new world, like the people, are constantly growing and improving.
The nature of human life is actually very weak, so we rely on cultivation methods to continuously improve ourselves, change our destiny against the will of nature, and gradually become second-, third-, and even ninth-level creatures.
Some creatures are born with powerful life levels. For example, when Wang Jing was in the begging army, he followed Zhang Hun to explore north and encountered a fierce tiger on the road.
The tiger's life level is level one, which is the level it was when it first arrived.
After such a long time, if this tiger is not dead and continues to absorb the power of heaven and earth, it will not be a problem to transform into a second-level creature.
The reason why the fish in East Lake can become first-order creatures is probably related to Wang Jing's blessing from the world.
If the blessings of the world are regarded as a special energy, the reproduction speed of all things in the world will increase five times after absorbing the energy. Nourished by this power, even a fish has a chance to break through.
"There's something wrong. According to what you say, if a fish absorbs energy and can become a first-order creature, wouldn't the countless humans and countless people who come here also become first-order creatures?"
Wang Jing realized this.
I feel like there were some omissions in what I just thought.
No matter how weak the essence of human life is, it cannot be weaker than ordinary fish and shrimps. The aura of human life appears pale white, while the aura of life of fish and shrimp is only gray.
"It's also possible that there is some rich treasure at the bottom of East Lake, which benefits these big fish..."
Wang Jing's eyes flickered when he thought of this.
The power level of the new world is actually very high. An ordinary first-level elite soldier can kill seven or eight soldiers at will. A second-level general can master the piercing energy and harvest dozens of lives on the battlefield without any problem.
As for third-level generals, they can internalize Qi, and their strength is comparable to the martial arts masters who master Qi in some strange novels in the source world.
Equipped with a war horse and a spear, it can easily break through the obstruction of hundreds of people.
If he breaks through the fourth level, Wang Jing feels that his personal strength will undergo a qualitative change. Gang Qi is indestructible, able to penetrate gold and stone, and is also invulnerable and resistant to swords.
Military generals with Gang Qi have such extraordinary abilities. Wang Jing can't imagine what the abilities of those ninth-level experts are?
For example, Zhang Jiao, who also masters the Nanhua Taoist Scriptures, can call the wind and rain, and control the thunder. What is the difference between this immortal?
Humans can have such strong men who are almost like immortals, but don’t other races have them?
And the most important point.
That is, whether it is a ninth-level powerhouse in humans or a powerhouse in beasts and plants, if you want to become the top in this world, you will definitely need a lot of cultivation resources.
Even those strong men who reach the ninth level are no exception, but they only consume the power of the world.
The ninth-level military generals and famous ministers who have been favored by the world absorb the power of the world's origin, but the price they pay is to greatly delay their rebirth.
And the military commanders and civil servants who have arrived will also have to absorb energy in the process of becoming the ninth level!
And the form in which this energy is displayed between heaven and earth may be the crystallization formed by the extreme concentration of vitality, or it may be the spiritual energy in myths and legends!
"Maybe there is a crystallization of vitality in the bottom of East Lake, or it may be a node where spiritual energy gathers!"
Wang Jing was thinking divergently, and the thoughts in his mind kept turning.
The future power level of the new world is extremely high. Maybe the original dynasty fighting for hegemony will become the Xianwu Dynasty.
It's just that in the current Shenzhou world, apart from the five-fold increase in reproduction speed caused by the blessing of the world, there is no vitality and spiritual energy in the world that Wang Jing can absorb.
Maybe the world has just taken shape and is not yet completely stable. Only after it is completely stable will this energy slowly be released?
Various speculations and thoughts emerged in Wang Jing's mind.
"Lord, there is a hill in front of you. This mountain is called Lingqiu Mountain. On the south side of the hill is Anhe River, and there are all hills to the north and east!"
"Not long ago, my lord and Mr. Shen talked about building a city, so my subordinates led people to explore the terrain. If we build a city here, it will be eight miles in circumference, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and can easily withstand the siege of thousands of people!"
At this time, Zhu Wu's voice interrupted Wang Jing's thoughts.
Whether the vitality is gradually increasing or there are really so-called vitality crystals at the bottom of the lake, Wang Jing is not concerned about it now.
He now wants to personally explore the location where the city will be built as a bridgehead for the attack on the east.
Wang Jing put away his mind and looked ahead. He saw a hill four to five hundred meters high sitting on the shore of East Lake. Part of the hill went deep into the lake, and the side close to the lake was very steep.
On the south side of East Lake, a small river about ten feet wide runs through the lake and flows eastward.
The hills are green and the rocks are rugged.
The land to the north is undulating with some mounds.
If it were to be built here, there would at least be no shortage of rammed earth, stone and wood. And as Zhu Wu said, the geographical situation here is indeed good.
If we want to talk about the shortcomings, there is one point, and that is that it is not conducive to the movement of cavalry.
With sufficient defense, it is easy to be blocked in the city if you attack.
"Look at other places. If there is no more suitable place, then choose to build the city here!"
Wang Jing said.
Others have no objections. What we are planning to build this time is a bridgehead for the eastward movement and the future governance of Donghu County. As for the capital, the core... the boundaries of Sizhou are not suitable.
Sizhou and the surrounding areas in the original world are battlegrounds for military strategists, and there is no place that can be used as a foundation for the establishment. Well, if calculated strictly, the boundary between the two Huaihe Rivers can be based on Yangzhou.
However, in the world of China, Yangzhou is far away from Sizhou. Wang Jing wants to reach Yangzhou, but he doesn’t know how long it will take.
Everyone continued to sail along the East Lake from south to north, observing all the way.
