Chapter 845: Confucian Luck

"Confucianism has no way, unless it is at the level of a Confucian Half-Sage or Sage, to obtain a large amount of Confucian luck."

After the Hundred Schools of Thought, especially the Great Han's "respecting only Confucianism," Confucianism indeed reached its peak, and after that, the Hundred Schools of Thought dissipated.

Su Fan did not know how Confucianism would be in the future, but the Confucianism of later generations indeed met the needs of the rulers.

And in the Journey to the West world, Confucianism indeed existed.

But whether Confucianism could possess such huge luck was still an unknown. After all, this was a mythical world.

The importance of luck is self-evident. How could other Hundred Schools of Thought be so willing? How is that possible?

Even if Confucianism is powerful, so what?

You respect only Confucianism and abolish the hundred schools. Do those other strong people dare not take action? Don't forget they are also human.

The internal strife of the human race, the Fire Cloud Cave will not care. After all, no matter what, it is just internal digestion within their human race.

So for Confucianism, Su Fan still had great doubts.

Otherwise, he would directly take out Wang Yangming's Heart Learning and pretend to be one. Not to mention becoming a Confucian Sage, but a Half-Sage or Great Scholar was still possible.

It was just that Confucianism was the Dao of education, and promoting Heart Learning certainly required constantly traveling around the world to preach the Dao, to spread it, and to let other students learn his Heart Learning, which was very time-consuming.

Confucius could become a Confucian Sage not only because of his knowledge, but also because of his merit in education, plus the seventy-two sages under his door who constantly helped him organize and promote his Confucianism.

For Su Fan, this was very troublesome. Xunzi's Dao was also like this; he had the Little Sage Virtuous Manor to help.

Su Fan did not have one.

So pretending to be a Confucian big shot, Su Fan only considered it, and did not determine it in the end.

After all, the future of Confucianism was unclear, and he was only for luck and merit.

"Then it's the medical school and the agricultural school."

These two schools were also the best for earning human luck and merit.

Other things aside, the food of the agricultural school.

People regard food as their heaven. In the mythical world, the yield of food was no different from history, at most a little bit better.

In terms of water conservancy, the Great Qin was very developed, clearly the Great Qin also attached great importance to this point. The water conservancy irrigation systems built in the Great Qin's several major grain-producing areas were very developed, and compared to later generations, they might not be as good.

But in ancient times, they were the best in the world.

Water conservancy certainly helped with grain production.

However, lacking modern scientific seeds, chemical fertilizers, etc., wanting high yields was impossible. The agricultural school might also be researching, but without a system, the high-yield seeds they catalyzed could only rely on Qi Refining to explore.

Clearly, they had not walked a deep path.

High yields were out of reach. Even relying on the means of Qi Refining to optimize, clearly there was only the first generation of seeds, and the next generation completely returned to its original appearance.

So the effect was not great.

Therefore, now, food could never be high-yield.

Food means what, ordinary people know. Having enough food can allow the human race to multiply more descendants; a three-year-old child knows this.

The population explosion in later generations was undoubtedly the result of high grain yields.

In history, population explosions all occurred in various dynasties when grain-producing areas were developed.

The Great Qin could use the power of one country to beat the Six Kingdoms. Apart from powerful military strength, it was sufficient food, because of the Guanzhong area, which was fertile for thousands of miles.

And Shang Yang's agricultural policy was to value agriculture and suppress commerce, which allowed the Great Qin's agriculture to develop, and grain income also greatly increased.

The population also began to increase continuously.

The importance of agriculture is beyond doubt. The Great Qin army was powerful; apart from the military merit system, it was sufficient food, making the army not afraid of lacking food when fighting. This was something the Six Kingdoms could hardly do.

Then, regardless of whether it was Bai Qi or Wang Jian and his son, they fought battles in a straightforward manner, using the Great Qin's powerful strength to suppress people.

Continuously squeezing the enemy's army, making them anxious, making them make mistakes, and then finding an opportunity to strike with one blow.

Being able to do this was precisely because of this sufficient logistical replenishment. Once logistics could not keep up, obviously, there was insufficient food, and they could not possibly play this point.

Logistics involves all aspects, but the most important is food.

In the Three Kingdoms period of later generations, Zhuge Kongming was actually playing this routine. Zhuge Kongming's military talent is beyond doubt.

Later internet evaluations often say that Kongming's military ability cannot compare to the likes of Zhou Yu.

In fact, the reason for this is because of his terrifying internal affairs attributes, but in fact, Kongming's military talent is not at all worse than his internal affairs ability.

Not to mention in the history of the Three Kingdoms, even in the entire ancient dynasty, Kongming's military talent is ranked in the first line.

However, Kongming's military ability is more inclined to open schemes, straightforward, and open schemes are the most misunderstood.

The only pity is that in the later period of Shu Han, the military strength was not bad, but the potential for war was really too low.

The territory was so small, the population was too small, only over a million people. Even if Kongming wanted to exert himself, he was powerless.

If Shu Han had the war potential of the Great Qin, it would have unified the world long ago and restored the Han Dynasty.

In the Three Kingdoms period, Kongming's military ability was really invincible. Every time Kongming went to Qishan, in fact, the entire Wei Kingdom was very shocked, and even afraid.

Even Sima Yi, in fact, relied on complete defense to barely block Shu Kingdom. Kongming made six expeditions to Qishan, and the Wei Kingdom never took the initiative to attack, which can be seen.

At that time, the national strength of the Wei Kingdom was certainly several times that of the Shu Kingdom.

Other things aside, population was six or seven times that of Shu Kingdom, or even more.

But when Kongming was in power, not to mention attacking, even passive defense was very difficult. Every great war, even if Kongming was the attacking side, on the contrary, the losses of the Wei Kingdom were even greater.

This shows Kongming's military heaven-defying ability.

However, the war potential was too low, which also made Kongming unable to turn the tide.

The population can be said to be the most important.

Placed in the mythical world, the more people, the more luck the human race will have, and the more geniuses will be born.

In the mythical world, the Great Qin's population reached hundreds of millions, while the Six Kingdoms combined did not exceed one billion.

The war potential of both sides was not much different, but the Six Kingdoms were not united, and the Great Qin broke them one by one, ultimately unifying the world.

Luck unified, and the Great Qin's luck gathered very quickly.

Especially that First Emperor, who wanted to unify the world with the same tracks and the same script, truly unifying the world. In his hands, the Great Qin's luck was magnificent, far exceeding the Great Zhou before, and even more terrifying than the Great Zhou.

This is also why the Great Qin dared to resist the Heavenly Court, because the stronger the luck, the stronger the Great Qin's national strength, and strong experts were born continuously.

Bai Qi, Wang Jian, and others were all Golden Immortals, or even stronger. This point, even if placed in the Yin-Shang of that year, could not compare.
