Cao Ang can't do it...
Chapter 659
Of course, it is impossible for those gentry families to overthrow the Great Wei Empire, and all they can do is to affect the construction of the Great Wei Empire.
However, in such a critical period, the Great Wei Empire cannot be affected in any way, and cannot be slowed down.
After all, Cao Ang's ultimate dream is not this land of China!
Under such circumstances, what needs to be done is to save the country with curves!
If the gentry families in the world were to unite against the Great Wei Empire, it would be a very bad phenomenon under the current environment.
Not only will the Great Wei Empire fall into chaos and turmoil, but it will also cause the loss of many court talents.
The gentry family has provided the court with a lot of talents, and such a situation cannot be ignored.
In order to be able to get rid of this situation and make the implementation of the whole thing smoother, Cao Ang had already prepared to educate the poor before he missed it.
The reason why this gentry family provides most of the talents in the court is because they can receive good education and receive knowledge, not because they are born very smart.
There are two kinds of feelings between those who have gone to school and those who have not, and those who are educated and those who are uneducated are even more different.
Although being educated is not directly proportional to having education, but it has a certain influence.
Under such circumstances, in order to prevent the loss of talents and reduce the resistance of the elites of the gentry, what is needed is to democratize education so that everyone in the world can learn culture.
Only in this way can more talents be discovered and more talents can be reserved for the Great Wei Empire.
Therefore, four years ago, Cao Ang started preparations, and even created the printing technique, as well as the important papermaking technique.
Now this paper book has become popular throughout the Central Plains. It is very cheap, convenient and has a very large quantity of paper books, and it has directly replaced traditional books in this dynasty.
Under such circumstances, it did provide Dawei with a lot of convenience.
When Cao Ang saw that the time was ripe, he started to promote education two years ago, and established many colleges in Xuchang and many other important towns in the Central Plains.
Under such circumstances, many common people's children and poor scholars can all have the opportunity to study and receive education.
This is all prepared for one day you will be able to fight against those gentry elites.
Therefore, Cao Ang really took precautions, took one step and saw ten steps, and really realized the foresight.
Under such circumstances, the effect achieved is quite substantial.
However, the only shortcoming is that this time is a bit too short, and the advantages of this matter cannot be fully utilized if it is too short.
Although some notable effects have been achieved under such circumstances, such a situation is still not enough for the current Great Wei Empire.
This so-called educational cause cannot be accomplished overnight, nor can it be accomplished simply by doing so.
Therefore, under such circumstances, even if it is a top genius, it only takes two years to study. If you want to become a talent, it depends on whether your wisdom root is good or not.
However, such top talents are too few, and two years is too short.
Under such circumstances, what can Cao Ang do?
He, Cao Ang, can't do anything. What he can do is to reserve his patience so that he can have endurance, and then continue to invest his patience to wait for the completion of this matter.
That's all he Cao Ang can do.
Before the imperial examination system proposed by Cao Ang completely replaced the examination system, those very powerful gentry families were still a huge talent pool for the imperial court.
The talents of these gentry families all received education since they were young. They knew very well in their hearts that education could bring them knowledge and abilities.
Therefore, this education started from a young age. Compared with the one or two years of Cao Ang's preparations now, it is natural that the talents provided by the gentry family are more professional and powerful.
However, this situation will not last for too long, because Cao Ang believes that there are still many smart people in this world, and such smart people will not be a minority among poor families.
The imperial examination system introduced by Cao Ang and Cao Cao was not a medicine to challenge the status of the nobleman's court, because both Cao Cao and Cao Ang were very clear about this situation.
After the issuance of the imperial examination system, the descendants of the aristocrats who came to the examination a few years ago definitely accounted for the vast majority.
It cannot be said that 90.00% of them are the descendants of the gentry family, but more than [-]% of the people who came to participate in the scientific examination are people with the background of the gentry family!
Moreover, the most important thing is that 90.00% or even 90.00% of the people who can rely on those who can stand out in the imperial examination system are the descendants of those noble families!
Such an estimate is only a conservative estimate. For Cao Cao and Cao Ang, this situation is just a very normal situation.
Before this talent has been learned, this matter is a very normal thing, no matter how you change it, it is impossible to change it.
Because, a fat man can't eat a mouthful, especially for these talents, what they need is not only hard work, but also a very good education, so that they have such an opportunity to learn.
When this matter is going smoothly, the advantage of Cao Ang's implementation of the imperial examination is to win over those middle-level, or small, down-and-out gentry.
They were also gentry before, but because of their ability and strength, they gradually became lonely.
For such a gentry, Cao Ang also used the method of wooing, and promoted the concept of meritocracy, so that their family could be revitalized again.
In this way, those small and medium nobles will be loyal to Cao Ang because of Cao Ang.
This situation is also very real.
It is normal for them to be loyal to whoever can feed them.
Therefore, the attitude towards those gentry families is that as long as they can be wooed, Cao Ang will woo those who can't be wooed, and those who can't be wooed.
Instead, prepare to find a suitable opportunity, find an opportunity that can win them all in one fell swoop.
Chapter 660 Starting from scratch
This kind of opportunity will not last long, as long as the imperial examination system can succeed, as long as the source of talent for the imperial court no longer depends on those top gentry families, then this matter will be the beginning of overthrowing those top gentry families.
To win over half of the powerful people in the world, and then suppress one part, under such circumstances, the talents elected by the imperial court can be guaranteed, and the imperial court will not suffer too much loss.
The current Cao Ang would not do the kind of thing that would injure one thousand enemies and self-injury eight hundred.
The Great Wei Empire has just been established, and this matter is not a good thing. Although it is a way to hurt the enemy by one thousand and self-injury eight hundred, this method really makes Great Wei a little exhausted.
It is the Great Wei Empire that was established, and cannot be hindered by these noble families. Under such circumstances, what needs to be done is to appease and develop one's own strength at the same time!
When there is no need to rely on these gentry families at all, when they are no longer so important, Cao Ang will definitely eradicate them without mercy.
Cao Ang gave them a chance, but they didn't follow up. Under such circumstances, Cao Ang naturally wouldn't give them any good looks.
However, this time has not yet reached the real time, and we need to wait patiently.
Through the policies formulated by Cao Angsui, the talents of those small and medium gentry were selected, and the backgrounds of the top gentry and their descendants would have no effect.
