Luo Zhaoyun accompanied these talented men in the capital and Gao Xian, cooking wine and drinking lightly, enjoying the snow and talking without any marshal airs, just to bring each other closer to each other.

In this chaotic world, pure people are of little practical use. They can neither lead troops to fight nor manage government and peace with the people. They just live in a house with a lot of emotion and express their emotions by writing chapters, and they are full of strength.

Therefore, in every chaotic world, there will be a joke that "there is no use for all, the scholar" is the disdain and contempt of people by warriors.

However, when people master the pen, they represent public opinion to a certain extent. Through their own influence, they are popular and popular, and it is easy to form public opinion to a certain party, which makes this force invisibly increase its reputation, fortune, etc., and builds momentum for it.

Moreover, among many people, there are also some practical talents who can be strategists and plan; they can work in politics and govern the country. Therefore, Luo Zhaoyun is courteous to these adults, and hopes to use this to attract more talents to their own use.

After all, since the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the family rose and monopolized the dissemination and popularization of knowledge, and their careers were closely controlled by the family. Only in troubled times, aristocrats could they promote talents in a non-discipline manner. However, the vast majority of talents still come from those old nobles.

To win over more talents is equivalent to having a deep relationship with the old nobles and the family.

However, some noble children scoffed at the people of the northwest, thinking that these people who were not educated much could not understand the Central Plains, and it would be a waste to speak.

There are also noble talents who have a deep-rooted thinking about the limits of aristocratic ranks, and some are resistant to the acceptance of knowledge by ordinary people, which will break through the knowledge monopoly of aristocratic.

Of course, Luo Zhaoyun did not propose any slogan to deepen the imperial examination and abolish the privileges of aristocrats, as this would only arouse the disgust and alertness of the nobles.

He wanted to maximize his interests, not only give children from poor families a hope for promotion, but also give children of nobles some special treatment, so as to run schools by popularizing the people and changing customs, but he still cannot improve the level of talent selection in the imperial examination.

The people in Hongguan feel that they have a place to use their skills. They have not yet thought that these poor children from the northwest will have any impact and impact on the aristocratic system that is declining when they grow up.

Everyone had a great conversation. Luo Zhaoyun asked Yao Silian, Yu Shinan and others to continue teaching and creating in the northwest, carrying forward the Central Plains, and truly pulling the people in the northwest into the custom of the Central Plains. This is a great merit.

A great scholar like Yao Silian naturally hopes to promote Confucius' Confucianism in the northwest. This is what every Confucian scholar hopes to do, explaining the way they insist on, and benefiting more people.

Before leaving, Luo Zhaoyun invited Xue Zhiqing to visit the General's Mansion at any time, and his family also arrived.

Xue Zhiqing showed joy on her face and said, "Oh, Yiyi has also come to Jincheng. That's great. When I was in Daxing City, I heard her play the piano, which is awesome. Although she communicated several times back then, she couldn't enjoy it. This time, she can have a good exchange and exchange."

"The music and music of the piano and the flute are a kind of elegant thing!" Luo Zhaoyun smiled slightly.

Xue Zhiqing smiled but said nothing, thinking that it was just an excuse to see Yiyi, so that she could often go to and from the General Manager's Mansion.

Luo Zhaoyun left Hongguan and returned to the commander's mansion and received great news. Li Jing had opened the Hexi Corridor, successfully captured Dunhuang County, wiped out the rebels there, regained control of Yumen Pass, and led his troops to sweep Yiwu County a few days ago, heading to the Tianshan area in Xinjiang, driving the Turkic tribes out of Yiwu territory again.

Luo Zhaoyun took the letter and browsed it, showing joy: "It's great. Li Jing has lived up to expectations and successfully opened the Hexi Corridor. From Jincheng to the 36 countries in the Western Regions, the Great Food Kingdom and Huoluo Kingdom in the Middle East can all be smooth. Stations are established along the way, routes are cleared, and business exchanges are safe. The economy in the northwest will be driven, the people will be prosperous, and the education will be moderate, changing the trend of backwardness of the barbarians and the true unification of China will also have a major foundation for the true unification of China."

The border garrison has been uneasy, and a few tribes have repeatedly changed and confronted the court. The big reason is that these border garrison places have backward religions, not being accustomed to Central Plains, not being benevolent, etiquette, trust, etc., which are completely reverent, conquered by force, and are capricious. They have a weak sense of belonging to the Central Plains. If the border garrison can be promoted and affected by Central Plains, they have a sense of unity and belonging to the Chinese nation, and their territory can be expanded and become stronger in the future.

Xiao Yiyi said: "Congratulations to my husband, the northwest territory has spread out, and it is now the eleven counties."

"Yes, Xihai, Heyuan, Jiaohe, Lintao, Weihan, Xiping, Jincheng, Wuwei, Zhangye, Dunhuang, Yiwu, eleven counties, the entire northwest territory is now under the rule of the prince." Ning Muhe also showed surprise.

Luo Zhaoyun nodded and analyzed carefully: "The northwest is vast and empty, and the territories of the eleven counties are as large as one-fifth of the territory of the Great Sui Dynasty, but the population is less than one-twentieth of the Great Sui Dynasty. It is relatively poor. There are not even decent porcelain or jade in the people's homes, but unlike the people in the Central Plains, there is no shortage of ceramic tools and silk cloth, and the economy in the northwest is too backward."

"However, the northwest also has advantages, with a high terrain, and it is relatively difficult for the Central Plains to fight to the northwest, the climate is uncomfortable, and the northwest is suitable for raising cavalry. The cavalry team of our Northwest Army will soon be the largest among all forces."

"Husband, how do we plan next?"

"Build high walls, accumulate grain, and slowly become king." Luo Zhaoyun expressed his opinions on Zhu Sheng, a scholar in the early Ming Dynasty, to put forward a strategic policy for Zhu Yuanzhang to pacify the world, which was very reference value.

"Our army's territory is not small anymore. We must digest it steadily and wait and see if something happens in Jiangdong, the pattern will change. Our goal is Guanlong. But before we move, it is best to force Xue Ju and Li Tang to fight first, both sides will be injured. Then we will attack again, pacify Xue Ju and take down Daxing City!" Luo Zhaoyun's thoughts were clear, and he observed the storm and cloud situation in the Central Plains and waited for the opportunity to go out.
