Chapter 2085 Passing by
When the latest lecture content of the Taihang Mountain people spread throughout the world through the mouth of the businessman, everyone was shocked.
The powerful men were very happy, because the meaning of the Taihang Mountain people was very clear.
“It seems that they will not follow Wang Mang’s example and carry out restoration.”
“Yes, the land of powerful powerful people can be saved.”
Yizhou.
Cao Cao and Cui Cheng looked at each other and sighed.
They understand very well that as long as the local powerful don't move their land, other things, such as killing a few of them for violating political discipline, really don't matter.
It’s okay to even collect their taxes.
As long as the land does not move, it will fight you tooth and nail if you do.
Cui Cheng added: "I also heard that they are going overseas to develop land, and then in the future they will send refugees overseas to develop land."
"And then build a trade channel between overseas and the local area." , In this way, the food of the rich can be circulated. "Through commercial circulation, the poor can have a place to sell their labor."
Cao Cao was silent.
The opponent's hand hit him directly on Qicun.
Because he was in Yizhou, there was no outlet to the sea at all.
No, there is a port on the Yangtze River, but it is too far.
Moreover, it is very difficult to reach the lower reaches of the Yangtze River. The river must be repaired before it can pass.
It seems that his next step is to attack Jingzhou and Jiangdong, so that he can continue to play imitation chess.
"We need to recruit troops, train troops and prepare food again." Cao Cao gritted his teeth.
Cui Cheng immediately nodded in agreement.
There is no hope for the powerful, they must deal with the Taihang Mountain people themselves.
That will do.
They cannot rely solely on local tyranny.
"In addition, we can bribe the ten ministers and tell them that the Taihang Mountain people are planning to rebel and are creating public opinion to win the imperial court to send troops to confine them to the mountains." Cui Cheng added.
Cao Cao nodded.
…………
At the same time.
In the Taihang Mountains.
The wise men have written their own outlines of the ocean and the land.
Once the outline has been written, how can we lure people into voluntarily entering the sea?
"How to let them become sailors?" Everyone was in trouble.
Yes, in the Taihang Mountains, everyone has food and clothing, so who wants to go to sea?
No one wants to go to sea, it is so dangerous.
Even if your strength exceeds that of Lu Bu, a big wave will drown you.
"No one wants to go to sea. Going to sea is indeed hard, but you can find those refugees to go to sea. Who is willing to take on this matter?" Wen Rensheng asked.
Xun You took the initiative and said: "The students are willing to go."
"Very good, you can go."
Xun You was very happy after receiving the permission.
He thinks this is Shanren training himself to be his disciple.
The other party is letting him do big things.
If he can handle the matter of going to sea, it will be of great significance.
According to what the master said, that almost solved a large part of the future system of the entire empire.
At this time, Xun You certainly thought that no one could compete with his master.
Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are simply childish and ridiculous.
They are not worth mentioning in front of Master.
Master’s wisdom encompasses the universe.
While they were still fighting for the land of the princes, the master had already begun to set his sights on the sea to the east.
Xun You left immediately.
There were many people seeing him off.
Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Xun Chen, Kong Rong...etc. are all famous people today.
"There are dangers at sea. If you go to find someone, be sure not to get involved in the danger yourself. A son of a rich man cannot sit in court." Xun Yu couldn't help but persuade.
After all, he is his nephew. The relationship between the two is usually delicate, but they still worry about each other at critical moments.
"Uncle, please don't worry about me. Whether you succeed or not depends on half of God's will and half of human affairs. Only by doing human affairs can you know God's will." Xun You said through gritted teeth.
Only then did he realize what a king is.
"Only by accepting the criticism of the country can you become the master of the country."
In other words, you must be able to solve problems and lead everyone out of the way.
Everyone will follow you.
This is why he believes that the master is invincible, and there is no problem that the other party cannot solve.
He was also going to solve a big problem at this time.
After solving it, being a king for ten years shouldn't be a problem.
As for what to do after becoming a king, let’s wait until the time comes.
In short, Xun You brought 20 guards and 60 horses with him, heading east and then south.
He is going to Xuzhou.
Because Xuzhou is close to the sea.
And there is a port.
Relatively speaking, Xuzhou is relatively stable.
However, people's livelihood is still in decline along the way, and thieves are everywhere.
If they had not been trained for a long time, I am afraid that their numbers would have been reduced long ago.
From those trainings, Xun You once again realized that the master contained the universe, and could tell the best way, or give the best solution, even to small matters such as how to march.
At this time, they walked and finally came to Xiapi.
As soon as they arrived at the gate of the city, they heard someone shouting: "Quickly, behead them."
"Everyone, go and see, Governor Tao has killed someone again! Kill a group of Yellow Turbans Thief!"
Then they turned around and looked.
I saw a gurgling stream of fresh blood flowing in front of the base of the city wall on the right.
More than a hundred people were tied to wooden sticks.
The heads are watching them from a distance.
Xun You shook his head.
What a wonderful young and strong workforce.
How much wealth can be created?
Just because they have no knowledge and have not taken refuge under their master, they cannot find a chance to survive. In the end, they can only choose to rebel and seize big houses.
He glanced at these yellow scarf people. They were all too young, with an average of only ten years old.
Fifteen years old?
He used to call them thieves.
But then I stopped calling.
Because Master said that as a manager, it is the greatest sin to let the people under his control rebel because of famine.
The Yellow Turban thieves, no, no, we should also say the Yellow Turban common people. These people rebelled just because they had no food to eat.
We cannot say that they are thieves, we can only say that they are refugees.
Xun You swept over and saw that most of the people's faces were ashen, and they bowed their heads and were killed.
Everyone is tied up with colorful flowers.
The executioner has come.
The Ghost Head Sword has been prepared for a long time.
There was only one young man who suddenly laughed there.
The executioner was almost startled.
The supervisor sent someone to come and asked: "That thief, why are you smiling so happily?"
"I've heard people say before that if you smile more, you'll live longer, and now it seems that's true." The young man said with a playful smile.
There is no fear of death in his eyes.
Xun You smiled when he heard this.
He found someone. How can a person who dares to laugh in the face of such death still be afraid of storms on the sea?
So he came to the supervisor.
Some soldiers wanted to stop them, but were scolded by the officer.
Xun You is dressed in a long robe and is uninhibited. You can tell at a glance that he is a famous person.
And the other party also brought so many attendants and guards, all of them had armor.
Not an ordinary person.
You must know that hiding armor privately is rebellion.
"I want to buy this group of people." Xun You said, and asked someone to bring a pile of five plants for money.
Sangong can sell it these days, what else can’t be sold?
The supervisor was very happy: "Okay, Mr. Renyi, I have two thousand people here."
"Buy them together, 5,000 yuan for men, 3,000 yuan for women, and 200 yuan for children. Money.”
Children are cheap because they die young too easily.
The premature death rate exceeds 30%.
"Okay." The supervisor regretted very much. He had known that he shouldn't have gone to work so early today, so he could have postponed it until noon. He had killed more than 100 people in vain and lost hundreds of thousands of money.
You must know that buying a county guard costs 10 million yuan.
Xun You then bought all these people.
The prison officer made a deal openly and sold the bandits to others, which shows that the laws of the Han Dynasty have long been abolished.
This can only be blamed on His Majesty. He sells his official position and gets a title. Can others take the sanctity of the official position seriously?
Then Xun You ordered the attendants to organize the 2,000 people into groups.
First of all, we found some honest people to serve as team leaders, and then led them to purchase food.
Most of them didn't run.
Because there is no point in running, if there is no food to eat, they will only starve to death, so it is better to follow others as slaves.
Of course when there are more people, there will definitely be some who escape and want to go home to relatives.
After doing all this, Xun You found the young man laughing on the execution ground.
"What's your name and why are you laughing?"
"Reporting to the master, young Liu San, he laughed because he met an old Taoist when he was young. He said that when you are about to When you are about to die, try to leave as happily as possible, so that you can taste the last bit of honey in your life." The young man said respectfully.
At this moment, how could he still look as fearless as before?
Xun You sighed.
As expected, people are all differentiated by comparison, this is what Master often said.
If you don’t go through suffering and hardship, you won’t endure hardship and you won’t want to suffer.
This young man was going to be beheaded before, so he was fearless and could say such big words.
But now, with the future in his own hands, he began to be humble.
But he was not disappointed.
"Very good, that's why you have to laugh. That Taoist priest is an expert. By the way, you died immediately before. What were you really thinking about?"
Young The man raised his head and said: "Afraid, confused, dizzy, just want to get over as soon as possible."
Xun You nodded.
At the same time, he understood why the master said those seemingly rebellious words.
When people pity their own elderly, they should also pity the elderly of others.
"You did the right thing. You could live for another hour at that time. Why didn't you leave with a smile? Why did you leave in pain? It was death anyway, and you could still enjoy it at the last moment. To the joy of laughter. Isn’t it the pursuit of happiness? If a person lives in pain, what’s the point of being born?” Xun You said, imitating Wen Rensheng’s tone. .
"What you said is absolutely true. If you don't give up, Liu San is willing to become your teacher." The young man quickly knelt down.
"Okay, I have to take a look before talking." Xun You smiled.
It's not easy to recruit a disciple.
He looked at this fifteen or sixteen year old boy with pity in his heart.
Sure enough, with the size of the Han Dynasty and the large number of people, many heroes and talents could emerge.
But I don’t know how many heroes are like this boy, either buried or simply killed.
You can only rely on your own wisdom to burst out a glimmer of fire before death, that's all.
He immediately realized that Master's mind was too broad.
Only a handful of people can survive the waves.
Then leave your name in history.
In fact, the names and appearances of famous generals are not that mysterious. As long as you and the right person can survive to the end in the fight, then you are likely to become a famous general.
Because if you fight more, you will naturally make progress.
For example, the group of meritorious people around Liu Bang are the best example.
Are they really so-called generals?
That's not the case, it's just because I seized the opportunity, lived to the end, and was willing to work hard, and then achieved myself on this platform.
That’s why they are loyal to Liu Bang.
After the reorganization, Xun You took two thousand slaves to Guangling Port.
Buy ships, train sailors, buy land.
He also visited the local powerful Chen family, Chen Gui.
After getting the other party's permission, we took a step forward.
According to Master, it is necessary to store more fresh vegetables at sea, but vegetables are easy to spoil.
So when it comes to bringing fruits, the best and cheapest ones are citrus, especially green citrus.
It can be stored for half a year in the north. Of course, the humidity at sea is high, so wooden barrels + lime must be used to separate the moisture.
In this way, diseases on long sea journeys can be avoided.
Devil's disease.
The old guide they invited also mentioned this disease.
It is said that one time he was knocked off the land by the wind and drifted on the sea for more than a month. Gradually everyone got sick and eventually died.
No reason.
There was no poison, no wind and cold, but the person died.
Hearing this, Xun You suddenly realized that the master had too much knowledge.
Look, without the knowledge given by Master, it would have taken many lives to find out just this one detail.
He underestimated.
The real solution to this devilish disease, that is, vitamin deficiency, was discovered by chance only after hundreds of years of navigation.
In fact, positioning is the most important when sailing on the sea.
Relying on compasses and stars to determine positioning is not very accurate.
If you want to sail in the vast ocean, you must have a sextant.
Establish accurate time and propose the concept of longitude and latitude.
In short, navigation is an extremely complex project.
Once it expands in scale, it will force the development of science and technology.
At the same time, Cao Cao sent someone to bribe Zhang Rang, the ten permanent ministers, and told the Han Emperor:
“Your Majesty, there is Taihang in the north of Luoyang, and there is a Taihang Mountain man in Taihang who is also giving lectures. "
"He imitated Zhang Jiao and talked about rebellion every day."
In fact, everyone knew about this, but no one reported it to the emperor.
The emperor himself didn’t want to hear the bad news, he just wanted to hear what he heard.
For example, how much did it sell for recently?
“Oh, then he didn’t?” Liu Hong asked.
“We haven’t rebelled yet, but we will rebel sooner or later.”
"Then wait until he rebels. How can the court still have money and rice?" Liu Hong said very matter-of-factly.
The pacification of the Yellow Turbans consumed most of Taicang.
Zhang Rang did not say any more, because he knew that the emperor in front of him only wanted to have fun.
This is also the source of his favor.
At this time, Huangfu Song of Jizhou was in the army.
"Yizhen, you are the only one who can seduce a big man." Lu Zhi came all the way and said.
“What do you mean by Mr. Lu’s words?” Huangfu Song asked doubtfully.
“Nowadays, in the Taihang Mountains, there are giant bandits with high mountains and dense forests. They are giving lectures and recruiting talents. They will definitely be a scourge for the Han’s henchmen in the future.”
“This can be reported to the imperial court. Only when the imperial court issues an order can we send out troops."
"Oh, your troops are right next to him. With a quick strike, he will be unable to see each other. Such a big thing is certain." He shook his head.
