Liu Biao was holding a roll of bamboo slips in his hand. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Similar to Yuan Shao, compared to silk and paper, which is a new thing, Liu Biao still prefers bamboo slips.

Bamboo slips, held in the hand, heavy.

The bamboo slips with a great sense of heaviness are the best carriers of far-reaching Chinese culture.

Liu Biao ordered that in Jingzhou, official documents must be written in bamboo slips.

In Liu Biao's view, whether to use bamboo slips or paper for writing is not a simple matter of form, but a matter of attitude.

The documents in Jingzhou must not only use bamboo slips, but also use flat Han Li.

There were officials who used the regular script that had just become popular to write official documents.

Liu Biao only glanced at it, then handed it back elegantly, and said lightly: I am tired of re-transcribing, and I can't understand it.

This is not difficult.

Liu Biao vowed to build Jingzhou into a new cultural center of the Han Dynasty, and he had to start from little things and subtle things.

Culture should be inherited, not destroyed. In Liu Biao's eyes, paper and regular script are the destruction of traditional Chinese culture.

……

Now, what Liu Biao is holding in his hand is a report.

Bamboo slips used in the newspaper.

The word is Han Li. Neat and handsome. It looks like a word up close, but it looks picturesque from afar.

This report is very aesthetic and fully meets Liu Biao's requirements.

However, Liu Biao was not in the mood to appreciate these. The content of this report upset him.

The person who reported the report was Zeng Guofan, the county magistrate of Changsha County. (酃, tone zero)

"Zeng Bohan, so many things!"

Zeng Guofan is a talent that Liu Biao has just selected.

Jingzhou is full of talents, and Zeng Guofan can stand out, which is very lucky.

Jingzhou still implements the probation system in the selection of talents.

In the probation system, talents must be recommended at all levels to examine morality, grammar and talent. Those who are finally hired are naturally rare.

Because of the strict family education and good educational conditions, it is easier for the children of the family to be recommended and pass the assessment.

Liu Biao's ability to successfully control Jingzhou is inseparable from the support of the Seventh Family of Jingzhou.

This time, Liu Biao hopes to inspect more children of the Seventh Family, which can be regarded as a feedback for the support of the Seventh Family.

Although Zeng Guofan is a descendant of Zengzi, the Zeng family in Jingzhou at this time is only a small family. In terms of strength and influence, it is not the same as the Seventh Family; The support for Liu Biao cannot be compared with the Seventh Family.

According to common sense, Zeng Guofan will not have a chance at all to inspect talents this time.

However, Pang Degong and Kuai Liang Kuai Yue strongly recommended Zeng Guofan to Liu Biao.

Liu Biao summoned Zeng Guofan.

After asking the right question, Liu Biao found that although this Zeng Guofan's ideas were a little weird, his grammar and talent were indeed outstanding. What's even more rare is that Zeng Guofan is still a dutiful son.

Therefore, Zeng Guofan was able to be hired and entrusted by Liu Biao with the important task of serving as the county magistrate of Yuxian County.

Zeng Guofan was reused, and in his tenure in Yanxian County, he fulfilled his duties and did his best, and Liu Biao was very satisfied.

However, Zeng Guofan's report made Liu Biao angry.

In his report, Zeng Guofan strongly opposed the expansion to Yuzhang.

Zeng Guofan believes that between Yuzhang and Jingzhou, there are many mountains and rivers, the transportation is inconvenient, and the living habits and languages are different. At this time, the time is not ripe to compete for Yuzhang.

Even if he succeeds, Jiangdong Sun Ce will not give up.

Moreover, Yuzhang is not rich. The seizure of Yuzhang was just to add burdens and burdens to deepen the enmity between Jingzhou and Jiangdong.

Zeng Guofan also pointed out that the direction of Jingzhou's expansion should be Nanyang in the north, rather than Yuzhang in the east.

Nanyang was originally a territory of Jingzhou, and now it is occupied by Liu Mang.

Liu Mangxi resisted Yongliang and Yuan Shao in the east, and the south was also restrained by Yuan Shu, facing the enemy on three sides and barely supporting it.

At this time, it was the best time for Jingzhou to recover Nanyang.

Even if you can't capture the entire territory of Nanyang, you can at least recover Xinye, Yuyang, and even Jianyang, and divide Nanyang with Liu Mang.

What made Liu Biao most angry was that Zeng Guofan said in the report that if he took Yuzhang in the east, he could only harvest a large area of barbaric land. Only by entering Nanyang in the north can we approach the Central Plains and the Chinese cultural center, which is the correct direction of development.

Zeng Guofan's remarks may be normal in the eyes of others. But Liu Biao looked at it, but it was very dazzling!

Denying the strategic concept of eastward expansion and saying that Liu Biao made a mistake in strategic direction, Liu Biao can tolerate it.

What Liu Biao couldn't bear was what Zeng Guofan said, going north to "close to the Chinese Cultural Center"!

What does that mean?

Zeng Guofan said this only to support his strategic planning. But he didn't realize that these words touched Liu Biao's sensitive nerves!

In Liu Biao's view, Zeng Guofan's "proximity to the cultural center of China" is to deny the idea of Jingzhou becoming the new cultural center of the Han Dynasty!

And this idea is the core of Liu Biao's Jingzhou development strategy, the core strategic goal that is high above the strategic goals of territory, population, economy and so on!

What made Liu Biao even more angry was that Zeng Guofan also said that Liu Mang's desire to dominate the world had been revealed. In order to prevent Jingzhou from being swallowed by it, Liu Biao must abandon the grudge with Sun Ce and take the initiative to unite with Sun Ce.

Liu Biao is angry!

Am I going to mess with Sun Ce?

He's coming to me for revenge!

His father, Sun Jian, came to Jingzhou for no reason to make trouble, and died in Jingzhou, but he blamed me?

Sun Ce inherited the temper of his father Sun Jian, and he also came to Jingzhou to cause trouble.

It is not me Liu Biao who should be persuaded by you, Zeng Guofan, but Sun Ce!

In order to convince Liu Biao, Zeng Guofan's recital also used many didactic words.

What "make humanity for life, never lose an inch", persuaded Liu Biao not to compete with Sun Ce for Yuzhang. Make a move, on the surface, suffer a loss, but if you can get a good relationship with Sun Ce, you can get more long-term benefits.

Zeng Guofan also said, "Virtue will leave the latter prosperous, and disaster will leave the latter dead", which made Liu Biao even more angry.

The surname is Zeng, what do you mean?

People want to seek revenge, I retreat, let go again and again, is "virtue"? Can Jingzhou and future generations prosper?

When people come to take revenge, I fight back out of self-defense, which is a "disaster"? Will Jingzhou be defeated? So that my children and grandchildren will die without a place to be buried?!

What made Liu Biao even more unbearable was that Zeng Guofan said at the end of the report, "In the name of troubled times, less is precious"!

Doing all your best to develop Jingzhou in order to take the name of troubled times?

Expanding the territory and creating a foundation is to take the name of troubled times?

Respecting tradition and inheriting the classics is to take the name of troubled times?!

"Yellow-haired son, a bunch of nonsense!" Liu Biao really couldn't bear it anymore, and couldn't help but curse secretly.

If Liu Biao's self-cultivation is a little worse, he will immediately remove Zeng Guofan from his official position, and even hold him accountable!

However, Liu Biao didn't do anything.

Zeng Guofan, although he was a small official. But he had just passed the selection and was promoted.

He had just promoted him, and then ordered him to be dismissed, this was not to punish Zeng Guofan, but to slap himself in the face.

Moreover, Zeng Guofan is a person highly recommended by Pang Degong, Kuai Liang, and Kuai Yue. Punishing them is easy to cause them to misunderstand and even affect the relationship with the Seventh Family.

After careful consideration, Liu Biao promoted Zeng Guofan to the post governor of southern Guiyang.

In terms of official position, the post superintendent was higher than the county order, and Zeng Guofan was promoted again.

But Guiyang County is remote and barren. The southern part of Guiyang is even more of a wild place.

Although the post governor is high, the county order has more real power, which is a real descent.

Didn't you Zeng Guofan have a lot of ideas? Isn't it preachy? Go to the Savage Preaching!

Well done, that's it. If you don't do a good job, when you have the right opportunity, you will be punished for the crime of talking and dereliction of duty! (To be continued.) )
