From the world of martial arts

Chapter 1238 Pressure

The scope of Taiping Road is full of vitality when viewed from above, and there is almost no evil spirit to be seen.

Obviously, in this troubled world, under the rule of Taiping Dao, there is relative peace and tranquility. The majestic luck seems to give birth to a real dragon, but this real dragon is somewhat different from the previous real dragons. .

Su Fan knew that this was because the Taiping Dao regime was not the feudal dynasty it had been in the past.

If Zhang Jiao had not disappointed him, he would have made it clear from the beginning.

Although many disciples were very confused at that time, they still carried out the plan firmly.

Most of the talents who later joined Taiping Dao admired Zhang Jiao's choice. They were all smart people, and they soon understood that Zhang Jiao's idea was to explore a new political power and a way out.

I still admire Zhang Jiao very much for giving up such a great power.

After all, if the former chooses the former imperial path, then his family will be the royal family in the future, but if he chooses the current path, then his descendants may still be qualified to sit on the supreme throne, but they will also have to compete.

This is different from the previous one.

In the past, it was competition among the royal family, but now everyone in the world has the opportunity to compete.

From now on, the family and the world will no longer exist, and will become the inheritance system of ancient times. Not much is known about ancient history.

But during the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors period, it was the Human Emperor who chose his successor, and the path Zhang Jiao chose was similar to that of ancient times.

At the same time, the difference is that the Human Emperor no longer sticks to his word and needs to make decisions together with other people in the team.

Many people don't know how this system works, but at least for the more than one hundred years since it was implemented, rights have been relatively fair, both at the central and local levels.

Especially at the local level, after the number of administrative staff increases, each performs their own duties. Although the number of people has increased, it is much more convenient to handle government affairs, and various government affairs orders are also much smoother.

A government order can be responded to quickly from the place where it is transmitted. It is much better than before.

Of course, the rights have been divided a lot. After all, in the past, the local county towns had three chief officials: the county magistrate and the county lieutenant. The rest were the subordinates in the county government.

In the past, the county magistrate was so powerful that he almost dominated the local area. Now the county's functions have been divided into several parts. The county magistrate still has one, but there are also several deputy county magistrates to assist the county magistrate in handling government affairs.

It is tantamount to decentralizing power. Of course, there is restraint in this way. The restraint of rights also makes the local governments relatively fair.

In particular, one of the deputy county magistrates, who is in charge of corruption inspections, can be the greatest vigilant against the excessive proliferation of local power.

Many smart people can see the benefits of such decentralized checks and balances of power. Of course, it is impossible to completely change the system because it is too corrupt.

It is only relative that it can make the place clear and clear, and the government orders can be smooth, which can greatly enhance the strength of Taiping Dao.

These decrees are very attractive to many disciples from small families and poor families.

They used to serve as officials in the Five Roads, but here at Taiping Road, a large number of talents are needed to serve as local officials.

Therefore, despite being hostile to the wealthy families, Taiping Dao still quickly absorbed Jizhou and the surrounding ten states in just a few decades.

At the same time, Taiping Road also attracted a group of talents with great ambitions, and more talents appeared among the disciples of aristocratic families.

But it doesn't mean that the aristocratic family has a monopoly on all talents, and there are also some disciples of the aristocratic family who don't quite agree with the aristocratic family's methods.

There are also some disciples from such 'disobedient' families.

Therefore, Taipingdao has developed better and better over the years. The territory of the Twelve States is not the largest, but after decades, the population has skyrocketed, almost reaching the pinnacle among the major princes in the world.

The competition between the major princes is the army, and the more people there are, the more the army will be.

Taiping Dao's militia policy allowed them to have endless soldiers. Because Taiping Dao vigorously promoted agriculture, the people under their rule no longer lacked food.

In this way, within a certain period of time, local people, especially adults, will also have a period of training.

Although militia training is the most basic, it is also very important. After all, with the foundation, they will quickly take shape after joining the army in the future.

In this regard, compared with other princes, who directly forcibly rob ordinary people into the army, their combat power is higher.

The reason why Taiping Road was able to conquer the twelve states of the Central Plains so quickly was because of this.

The Central Plains family coalition led by Jizhou had many elite private soldiers before.

However, it is a pity that after all, it is only a coalition force. Everyone has selfish motives and cannot concentrate their strength together.

Naturally, it is of no use against Taipingdao, which is very powerful in itself.

After that, the piecemeal resistance in the Central Plains became even weaker. Most of them were peasant soldiers who had just joined the army. Even if they were armed with soldiers, they had little combat power.

The princes of the Central Plains did not have a strong army at all.

Nowadays, the elites of the major princes in the world are almost all in the north, especially the forces of Prince Yuan's Mansion with cavalry, and Dong Zhuo's army in the northwest.

Of course, the heritage of the Liu Han court lies there after all. With Luoyang as the center, the land of Sili, and the land of the five states, many aristocratic families had to return to the Liu Han court because of the threat of Taiping Road. .

It also allowed the Liu Han court to reach a higher level of control over these five states.

In the previous Liu Han court, decrees did not even necessarily go out of Luoyang.

Originally a group of heroes vying for hegemony, the Liu Han court and several local state pastors were eliminated, but they still declined.

After all, the current emperor is just a baby, and Liu Han's ancestors of the Earth Immortals are just warriors.

Most of the people in the imperial court are vying for power and gain, and there is little hope.

But the emergence of Taiping Dao made the family feel in crisis, and they did not want Taiping Dao to succeed.

Once the Tao of Peace comes true, their aristocratic families will be in bad luck in the future.

For this reason, they chose other princes, but the twelve states of the Central Plains were continuously raided, and these aristocratic families had no choice but to flee to other places.

The heritage of aristocratic families, especially those of the top aristocratic families, is still very profound.

Although their hometown was raided, it did not affect their strength. They still had sufficient human and financial resources.

Prince Yuan's Mansion was one of their choices, and as the orthodox Liu Han court, it was the choice of more aristocratic families.

After all, the Liu Han royal family has a very deep heritage, as it is truly the first family.

No one can argue with that. (End of chapter)
