In the eyes of the emperor, the Minister of Oriental was always a good person who could convince him.

The reason why the lowly Nanyang Wei commander gained authority was not that he was the best general of the Ming Dynasty, but that he was the person who knew the most about overseas in the world, but he was not good at this characteristic, did not covet the power of the Nanyang Military Government, and continued to create more people for the Ming Dynasty who knew more about overseas.

And now, the frenzied Nanyang minister has unraveled an ambitious, unprecedented talent reserve plan for the emperor - to systematically train three million teenagers with basic education in the next ten years, and increase the number by half a million a year after ten years.

These people can skillfully recite a few lines of ancient poetry, understand the culture and dynastic changes of the empire, and can understand land deeds, house deeds and scripts.

Selling meat and vegetables on the street is faster than the shopkeeper, knowing that mercury is poisonous and gunpowder explosion is not the alchemist's technique, even if he is a tenant farmer, he can no longer cheat them on the contract.

It is no coincidence that most of the laws of physics in the world are not coincidental, and in their consciousness, Java is not far away, and on the other side of the ocean is really far away, Spain, whose national uniform is still black, and Franci, who likes to wear egg trousers.

Zhu Yijun refers to the ambitious children of the project as the 'Wanli generation', and it is clear that they will better integrate into the new era, and at the same time present new challenges to the empire, or directly to him as emperor.

When they know all this, how can they keep a very high sense of patriotism and loyalty to the emperor and the emperor? It was something he had to solve.

If Cao Cao had been born into a thriving, prosperous, rising empire with expanding territory, he would have gotten his wish to become the Marquis of Cao, the general of the Han Dynasty's expedition to the west.

Chen Mu singled out education, but in the emperor's view, Chen Mu not only provided solutions for education, but also solved the military, which complemented each other.

He didn't doubt whether what Chen Mu said was correct or not, because this was his personal experience, he learned things faster than others, Huo De Xingjun was transported to the Forbidden City, and he knew the general principle after watching it for a long time; Put the bird gun in your hand, and you can know how to use it when you watch others play it once.

Because the "Chen Tao Te Ching" is his basic education.

Therefore, when the Wanli generation grows up, the urgent problem to be solved by the imperial court is to create room for this group of people to rise, as long as people have hope, no one will want to lift the table.

Chen Mu also mentioned two concepts, elite education and universal education.

In fact, ancient China has always been parallel to these two educational concepts, because the existence of printing defeated the aristocracy and the family, since the Tang Dynasty, more than three generations of wang families still exist, but they are not so special, and the common people also have the opportunity to study.

It is nothing more than possible that the family history makes them have more opportunities, there is no absolute equality between people, Lao Tzu worked hard all his life, gave birth to children, veterans left a set of armor, old scribes left a room of books, vegetable sellers left a small stall, and those who opened pawnshops would also leave shops and pawn tickets, but the imperial examination made most people equal in the Ming Dynasty.

Those who do business, the descendants of Chen Youliang's old ministry and the descendants of criminal ministers, mourners, criminals, monks and Taoists.

Because the imperial examination does not refer to the opportunity to be educated, but to become an official.

But you can all learn.

You have to be a doctor, go to medicine; To learn astronomy and mathematics, go to yin and yang; Medicine and Onmyoji were to the left and right of the magistrates of every prefecture in the empire except for the overseas territories.

In this vast land, every place has social studies, social studies, fifty families and one society, and each society has one study.

In the seventeenth year of Hongzhi, it was clearly ordered that children under the age of 15 should be sent to social studies for study.

Why is it fifteen, because at this age you will become an adult, and many people do not study before reaching this age and go home to help your father and mother take care of the fields, it is one thing for the imperial examination to allow you to take the exam, and it is another thing for your family to have the strength to study hard.

Emperor Wanli faintly felt that after the Wanli generation came out of the five-year primary school, he should continue to get the opportunity to go to school, but soon he found this paragraph from Chen Mu's letter.

"When the first batch of students graduate, the imperial court should take charge of all the specialized universities and colleges of industry, commerce, medicine, agriculture and animal husbandry, mining and metallurgy, shipbuilding, lecture martial arts, and lecture and literature institutes throughout the country, and all of them should be placed under the management of the great masters of academic politics, and examinations should be set up, and primary school students should be encouraged to apply for the examinations, and when they have completed their studies, they can start their own careers."

"It is advisable to set up a military university directly under the two Kyoto Divisions, and recruit them every year to be coordinated by His Majesty's henchmen, hire retired officers to teach culture and military skills, and give them grades based on their professional skills, such as the C-class soldiers are in charge of food and housing, the second-class soldiers are given 40 percent of the salary, and the first-class soldiers are given 70 percent of the salary, so that when they graduate, the military department will be assigned to serve in the army in various places, and gradually replace the military households of the world soldiers."

"The ultimate goal is to unify the selection of soldiers, unify the training standards of soldiers, and unify military theory, and separate the four-tier organization of training officers, military commanders, propaganda officers, and logistics officers from the functions and powers.

"In this way, the new recruits from all over the world will enter the central training center, train them to be stationed in all directions, and the elite soldiers will go out to fight on the frontiers, consolidate the loyalty of the grassroots level of the army, and tighten the power of the army's high-level troops.

"The three major ordnance bureaus have unified management and unified specifications, and the weapons used have been finalized and the experiments can continue, but there is no need to make more experimental models before there is a great improvement, and the production is increased for the purpose of expanding armaments, and after graduating from primary school, they can enter the arsenal, canning factory, and quilt factory as apprentices, and when they become regular workers, they will continue to take apprentices, and when the apprentices become workers, the first batch has become better workers, or promoted to management and opened branch factories."

"The same is true for civilian factories, such as silk, porcelain, handicrafts, and construction factories, except for industries such as ironmaking and steelmaking, which require physical fitness and pose a danger to the body."

"In agriculture, the big landlords who control too much land are weakened, and ordinary peasant households are encouraged to become small landlords through the use of machinery to produce agricultural and animal husbandry products on a large scale."

"When they are rich and prosperous, they will drive the livelihood and prosperity of all industry service providers."

"Technological innovation is encouraged, patents are established, technological progress is protected for three to ten years, and others in the world are not allowed to use it without permission, and if the technological progress is beneficial to the state, the design is bought at the royal family's expense and at its value, and the design is owned by the Empire."

Gears of War.

Emperor Wanli thought that Chen Mu wanted to create a war machine.

Taking advantage of the results of large-scale popularization of education, the standard training of the Beiyang Flag Army can be completed in a short period of time, and of course, the uniformly prepared food may be slightly worse than that of the Beiyang Military Government, but with the canned military rations, railway transportation, and large-scale manufacturing of advanced firearms brought about by the progress of productive forces, this kind of military strength that is one of the few in the world will be truly popularized.

Just write a few paragraphs on a piece of paper, and how far is it to go in the middle of a huge empire?

The emperor rubbed his tired eyes, but he didn't care.

He was born to rule the world.
