Chapter 287: Aftermath of the Debate After the military strategists came the miscellaneous schools. The School of Diplomacy, the School of Ming, and the School of Yin and Yang are actually ranked after them, which is beyond many people's imagination, but it is reasonable when you think about it carefully. Tian Ze's victory was achieved by dominating the world, and he never had any so-called allies. I'm afraid that he will have little room to display his strategic maneuvers in the future, because for Tian Ze, the current situation is that the whole world is his enemy and victory is already decided. Even if the world is unified and Tian Ze's ambition continues, it will be the Han people who conquer the world without any allies. Not to mention the famous masters and the Yin-Yang masters, their practicality is much worse than the previous ones, and it is not easy for them to stay in the top ten. "I don't know if this list can convince people all over the world." Tian Ze shook his head slightly. "It should be possible." Zhang Zhao said in a deep voice: "This debate was fair and open. Although there are some questionable points, it is generally convincing." Nothing can be perfect. Lu Zhi, Cai Yong and others put a lot of effort into this debate, and it is already very good to be able to achieve this step. "Then let's announce it. This matter must eventually come to an end." Tian Ze said lightly.
No matter who wins or loses in the struggle among the Hundred Schools of Thought, it is not important to him. What is important is that the Hundred Schools of Thought have been awakened. "promise!" After about two months of disputes among the various schools of thought, the matter was finally settled. When the final outcome was announced to the world, it caused countless ripples. Looking at the rankings on the list, some people sighed, some were indignant, and some were full of disdain. However, this list ultimately determined the ranking of the Hundred Schools. Except for the top twenty schools which are arranged in order, the remaining schools are ranked in groups of ten, so that no one will be ranked last alone, which would be too embarrassing. This not only left a bit of face for the Hundred Schools of Thought, but was also the opinion of Lu Zhi and others. Apart from the many schools of thought at the top of the list whose levels can be relatively clearly distinguished, the levels of the schools that follow are difficult to measure. Lu Zhi believed that his evaluation was relatively objective and fair, but after all, it was still difficult to make a clear distinction, and there must be something wrong. Just group them into ten to reduce disputes. "Although there are some emerging schools such as the Mohist School, the Agricultural School, and the Miscellaneous School, the ranking of the Hundred Schools of Thought this time is not surprising after all." Xun Chen looked at the rankings on the list and sighed lightly. "There is an absolute gap in strength. Unless there are figures like Mo Chen and Sima Yi in other schools, how can they be qualified to stand in the forefront?" Ju Su said lightly. This dispute among the Hundred Schools of Thought revealed too many things due to Tian Ze's intentional or unintentional promotion. Whether it is Zhuge Liang acting as the backbone and leading Confucianism to dominate other schools of thought, or Mo Chen being a genius and leading Mohism to rise with the way of science and technology, the profound meanings behind them are thought-provoking. But all this is meaningless to Ju Shou and others. They are more concerned about the current situation. How to turn the tables! Heroes such as Zhuge Liang, Sima Yi, and Xu Shu undoubtedly became their focus of attention. Unfortunately, when they found out, these heroes already had someone else. "Zhuge Liang, Sima Yi, Lu Su, Pang Tong, Fa Zheng, Xu Shu, Gu Yong..." Looking at the series of 'rising stars' in his hands, Xun Chen sighed slightly.
"There are so many talented people, but it's a pity that they can't be used by us." In this competition, too many outstanding people showed their talents. Putting aside the theorists among them, some of the abilities displayed by practical people like Zhuge Liang are enough to attract the attention of the world. "Xia Pi Chen Yuanlong, what do you think?" Ju Su asked. Those who accomplish great things must have the help of heroes. Yuan Shao's civil and military lineup is relatively good, but it is far inferior to Tian Ze, so Ju Shou has been trying to recruit talents. But unfortunately, because of the relationship with Kong Rong, Tao Qian and others, most of the talented people in Qing and Xu states had already gone elsewhere. Among those who remained, not many were worthy of Ju Su's attention, and they were all children of powerful families. The best among them is Chen Deng. "This boy is quite heroic and can be of great use, but after all, he comes from a prominent family in Xuzhou," said Xun Chen. "What about the Xuzhou clan? We are now sharing weal and woe with the noble families, so there is no need to worry." "But as for the reform... I'm afraid the three states' noble families will have some ideas." Seeing that Xun Chen looked a little worried, Ju Su smiled and shook his head. "You worry too much." "Didn't you notice? The one who led this matter was not the lord, but Tian Chengshou." A gleam of light flashed in Ju Su's eyes. "This guy is taking advantage of the general situation to force the princes of the world to reform. It's not that we want to change, but we have to. Tian Chengshou's target is the aristocratic family. And this matter is actually beneficial to us." "Therefore, the reform has become a consensus of the world, and it is not something we can influence. In the face of this great trend, the noble families have no choice." "But reforms also have different levels of depth. How can we avoid arousing the jealousy of people from aristocratic families?" Xun Chen asked. "This matter depends on the tacit understanding between the lord and Cao Mengde and others." "Now, the positions of the princes and the aristocratic families seem to have been switched. Now those on the chopping block are no longer the princes, but the aristocratic families and powerful people from all over the place. It depends on how the lord and others will make the decision." Ju Su took a deep breath and said in a deep voice. The end of the Hundred Schools of Thought was the beginning of war for them. It's not just a war in the open, but also a silent war in the dark. "This matter must be resolved as soon as possible. The battle of Sili will probably not take long." Xun Chen reminded. "Don't worry, my lord, they know what's going on." Now Ju Su is full of confidence in Yuan Shao. He has all the knowledge, ability and courage, and is far ahead of other princes in all indicators. Even when he is under pressure, Yuan Shao is terribly strong. While the princes in the Central Plains were in turmoil and preparing for reforms and subsequent wars, the people of the Hundred Schools of Thought were scratching their heads. Previously they were busy competing for rankings. Although when some people are successful, others are bound to be frustrated, but looking at the large pieces of land that were circled, all the people from the hundreds of families were extremely excited. However, after calming down, they discovered an embarrassing problem. No one, what to do? They had thought about preparing manpower to take over the fertile land they were about to obtain, but the circle drawn by Tian Ze was too big.
They could not even fill one-tenth of the population they had originally planned for, and large tracts of land remained undeveloped. At this time, the golden age of population competition had long passed. The various princes now treasured their population very much and would never allow the hundreds of families to exploit it at will. Even if you have a lot of money and food, you can't buy people. After all, what's the use of money if the people are gone? There are no people to farm the land or fight the war. As a last resort, Baijia turned his gaze to Tianze again. This matter will eventually have to be resolved by this person. Otherwise, even if they strongly encouraged childbirth, it would take at least hundreds of years to fill the land under their rule.
