Vol 2 Chapter 1111: Datang version of the college entrance examination

The strategy of Datang Empire and Datang Western Company in India has basically been determined a few years ago, that is, to find a foothold, first gain a firm foothold in India, and then plot other .

Later, after hooking up with the Spaniards, in order to trade with Europe, West Asia, North Africa and other regions, Datang Western also established five or six supply ports outside Gehe Prefecture. These supply ports are actually Ying Zihua in his early years. It was developed when leading a fleet westward on an expedition.

But the scale has always been small, and there is no ability to resist risks.

It takes a lot of investment to build these small-scale supply ports into real colonies and trade support points with India and even West Asia and Europe.

And this investment is not only the investment of money and materials, but also the investment of military power!

The establishment of such a colony by Datang Western Company in Gehe State aroused the great vigilance of the Portuguese. For this reason, the two sides are still competing frequently in the eastern waters of India. If Datang Western Company continues to expand, then the Portuguese can tolerate it. That's weird.

But it is impossible for Datang Western Company to tie its hands and feet because of the Portuguese's reaction!

Colonization overseas is a matter of competition with all parties. The empire competes with the Portuguese in India, and also competes with the Portuguese in Southeast Asia.

Now the Portuguese regard India as their own back garden, but the empire also regards Southeast Asia as their own back garden.

The Portuguese have been based in Malacca for many years and have always wanted to expand across Southeast Asia, but they all failed due to various reasons, especially in the Indosia Islands and the Philippine Islands, which is also known as the Banten Islands in the empire. As well as the Luzon Islands, it was the focus of the competition between the two sides in the early years.

But the empire relied on geographical advantages: close to the mainland and strong support.

That's why he won the competition in the above-mentioned areas, successfully took the Luzon Islands into his pocket, and established his own sphere of influence in the Banten Islands, controlled the Banten Islands, and opened trading stations and supplies on many islands. port.

It can be said that the current empire has already blocked the Portuguese in Malacca. Of course, ordinary Portuguese merchant ships can travel to and from the seas of East Asia without hindrance, but if the Portuguese want to establish new colonies in the above areas, then will usher in the attack of the empire.

In India, the situation is reversed!

At this time, the heads of the Datang Western Company in Gehe Prefecture still did not know that the empire was already determined to compete with the Portuguese in an all-round way, and even started planning to attack Malacca.

At the same time, the navy has also reached an agreement with Datang Western Company. The navy has sold almost an entire sub-fleet to Datang Western Company. The warships of this sub-fleet are already on the way, and it will not take long to reach the Indian Ocean waters, and then become a large-scale fleet. A big boost for the Tang Western Company to compete with the Portuguese in the Indian Ocean.

Overseas trade and the Portuguese, this chain of events is of great importance to anyone concerned with the expansion of the empire abroad, keeping an eye out for news abroad.

But this kind of thing is actually just a small matter for the interior of the empire.

A series of actions in the direction of India are almost not reported publicly in China. People only know that Datang Western Company is conducting trade in India, and they also know that there is a Gehe state, but the Gehe state in India is too far from the mainland. , far enough to make most people in the country stop.

This is also a true reflection of the affairs inside and outside the empire in the past two years, that is, internal affairs are far more important than external affairs.

For example, the Xuanping 10-year rural examination, which will be held this fall, will receive far more attention than any Indian affairs.

This year's township examination is different from previous years' township examinations, because after years of continuous imperial examination reform, Li Xuan also began to reform the township examination and even the government examination.

This year's reform of the rural examination has introduced a very interesting improvement, that is, the rural examination in each province will be combined with the enrollment of each university. Li Xuan personally stipulated that the enrollment of each university and normal school needs to strictly refer to the students' scores in the rural examination. Those who do not meet the standard are not allowed to apply for various universities. Only after reaching the relevant grade points can they be eligible to apply for various universities and martial arts schools.

Then the next step is the independent admissions examinations of various universities and normal schools.

This time, in the examination subjects, the entrance examinations of various universities, the Royal Institute of Technology and the Wuxuetang were referred to, and a unified examination was conducted, thus forming the classics, strategy theory, mathematics, physics, chemistry, comprehensive biogeography and astronomy. , Six Arts.

Among them, the classics and mathematics are key subjects, and the total score for each subject is 100%.

While strategy theory, physics, chemistry, and synthesis are first-class subjects, the total score for each subject is 80.

Liuyi is a second-class subject, and the total score for each subject is 60 points, and the Liuyi of the Tang Dynasty is also different from the traditional Liuyi.

Because the ancient six arts are somewhat out of date today, according to the standards specified by the Imperial Examination Division of the Ministry of Rites of the Tang Dynasty, the six arts of the gentleman in the new era of the Tang Dynasty are: ritual, music, archery, royal, calligraphy, and speech.

Needless to say, etiquette is for etiquette. As a Chinese citizen and a country of etiquette, this etiquette must be paid attention to.

Music, like traditional music, refers to music.

Archery, traditionally refers to the technique of archery, but in the Tang Dynasty, the meaning of this archery is more extensive, including bow and arrow archery, gun archery, swordsmanship and swordsmanship, etc. Candidates do not need to master all of them, but they must Master some of them.

Royal, the traditional is to drive, but in the Tang Dynasty, it is the royal horse, to put it bluntly, it is a test of riding skills.

Yan, this is to replace 'number', because in the imperial examination system of the Tang Dynasty, number was a compulsory subject, so I chose Yan Ding. Overseas indigenous dialects need to be proficient in several languages ​​at the same time, and at the same time pay more attention to Portuguese, Spanish and Latin, because among the above three, Latin is almost the common written language of the upper class in Europe, while Portuguese and Spanish, This is naturally because these two empires are currently the only two global colonial empires in the world, and it can be said that the sun never sets.

If you don't know the enemy's language, how can you better understand the enemy and then defeat the enemy?

It's just from the past years, it is estimated that in addition to the two subjects of ritual and music, there are not many people who can take the test for the six arts subjects this time.

The total score of the above seven subjects~www.wuxiaspot.com~ is 580 points, and if you reach 400 points, you will be awarded the title.

To apply for Guozijian University, Jinling University and other regular four-year universities, at least one needs to be famous, in fact, it requires more than 400% of the test, and to apply for the martial arts school, at least 450% or more is required, that is It is said that ordinary lifters are not good enough, and the lifters with better grades have to be laid off.

However, each school also has a small amount of the right to enroll students independently. This is not within the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Rites. They can enroll students who prefer to enroll students with partial subjects.

Moreover, this score is actually only the minimum standard. It just means that you have the qualifications to apply for the examination. You will have to take the entrance examination held by each school in the future, and you will be considered to be admitted if you pass it.

If you have a discerning eye, you can see it at a glance. In fact, this is the Datang version of the college entrance examination!
