After the two of them exchanged pleasantries, Tang Cheng told Lu Shahai about his strategy for curing the river. Tang Cheng wants to use his iron and bloody hands to vigorously rectify it.

Tang Cheng told the strategy, and this Lu Shahai also admitted that it was a big deal.

However, Lu Shahai still has a personal idea, he feels that Tang Cheng's big money is too bloody and not a real great power.

Tang Cheng smiled and asked, "Secretary Lu, what do you think is the demeanor of a great country?"

Lu Shahai said: "Huairou all over the world, go down to heaven with virtue, and convince people with reason." Follow the world with Confucianism, inspire the four seas, and give to all mankind. ”

Tang Cheng said: "I can't agree with yours and this principle of convincing people with virtue. Let me give you an allusion, which is also my position. Hope it inspires you. ”

So, Tang Cheng told Lu Shahai a historical allusion. Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty Liu Ill was already a good emperor, in the real history, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was eloquent and strategic, pushing the Western Han Dynasty to prosperity and strength, which is naturally undoubted, but Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty was even more powerful, he created the Zhongxing of filial piety, so that the Western Han Dynasty reached its peak, which is also a historical fact. At that time, the crown prince he set up was called Liu Zheng, and this prince was the son of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty in the folk and his lover Queen Xu.

The crown prince saw that Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty reused the Legalist figures and dealt with the ministers with severe punishments. At that time, two ministers, Yang Yun and Gai Kuanrao, had ridiculed Emperor Xuan of Han, so Emperor Xuan of Han killed them. Liu Zheng was very worried, so he persuaded his father: "Your Majesty, your punishment is too heavy, you should use Confucianism more often to implement benevolent government." Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty was furious when he heard this: "What do you know? The system of our Han family is to use the domineering and the royal way together, so as to calm the world." If you only practice the so-called virtue and political ninjutsu like the Zhou Dynasty, how can you do it? We can't just use Confucianism. Those Confucian scholars only know the past and the present, and they can't even figure out the name and reality, how can they govern the world?"

Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty said that he was indignant, and even sighed: "Those who mess with my family, the prince is also!"

Emperor Xuan of Han was not wrong. Later, after Emperor Liu Zheng and Emperor Yuan of the Han Dynasty came to power, Rouren was good at Confucianism, and the Western Han Dynasty gradually declined.

After Tang Cheng finished telling this allusion, Lu Shahai fell into a deep groan.

This story touched him.

Tang Cheng also said: "The final result of territorial disputes between countries in the world depends on force. War will always exist on our earth, which is destined by human nature, and no one wants the descendants of their own nation to live in smaller and smaller places. And war is inevitable that people will die, that will be bloodshed and sacrificed,"

Lu Shahai said: "These truths you said. I know everything, it's just that my heart is a little soft. ”

Of course, Tang Cheng wanted to get Lu Shahai's approval, and Lu Shahai's change of concept had a great deal to do with the success of Tang Cheng's plan.

Comrades who can win must strive for it, and unity is the strength.

Tang Cheng said again: "Old Lu, you know that historically, the Sichuan-Tibet-Xinjiang and Mongolian regions have always been the territory of our country. Now Sichuan, Xinjiang and Tibet are still our inherent territory, and there is no doubt that Outer Mongolia is independent?"

Lao Lu said: "I would like to hear about it." ”

Tang Cheng said: "We cannot rule out the positive influence of heroes on history, and we must thank Zuo Zongtang back then, who recovered the frontier in time." However, this is not the most fundamental reason, the most fundamental reason is that we recovered Sichuan, Xinjiang and Tibet, and purged the local residents who did not accept our leadership, and those who did not accept it were buried by the torrent of history. Immediately, we sent a large number of immigrants from the interior to Sichuan, Xinjiang, and Tibet, and completed absolute control over these areas, and the people who emigrated to the past were 100 percent of our Chinese people, who were not interested in any local traditions and religions, and they only recognized our government and the Chinese country as our motherland. It is precisely because we also recovered this area at the beginning, but we did not send a large number of immigrants to the Han people, and we still let the local Mongolians rule Mongolia, which has led to the occurrence of this bad phenomenon today. In fact, after occupying Outer Mongolia, our Qing government at that time also carried out the Han people resettlement project to Outer Mongolia, but helplessly, the living conditions in Outer Mongolia were relatively difficult, and many Han people ran back, resulting in the Mongolian people still growing, and later the Han people sent by the government in the past were purged! If the government at that time had done a better job and did not allow the Han people to escape and restricted the Mongolian people, Outer Mongolia would not have split from the territory of our great power, and in that case, we would have become even more powerful today! Taking history as a mirror, this is the essence of my governance of Helan! Today, when we re-emigrate from the Huaihai region to this Helan area, we must protect the interests of the immigrants, but all those who come here must be given house tickets and good economic conditions, so that these people who have left the Huaihai area can feel happy and take root in the Helan area. ”

Under Tang Cheng's painstaking words and persuasion with historical experience, Lu Shahai was greatly touched!

Lu Shahai admired and said: "Tang Cheng, you have made me breathtaking, and I have re-acquainted with you! I also feel that you have been sent here by the above, and you are really a party person! I respect your opinion." ”

Later, he said: "The situation in the Helan region has indeed reached the time when it should be comprehensively managed, Tang Cheng, since you have been sent here, I still respect your opinion, what do you want me to do? How can I cooperate with you?"

Tang Cheng said: "It's very simple, cooperate with me to do a few things, the first thing is to help me vacate all the prisons near Xitong City in Helan Region, and prepare some more cells for me." The second thing, if we really kill all the rebels in the Helan area, you have to help me immigrate from other provinces, preferably from the Huaihai region of the Central Plains, to our Helan region and reshuffle the cards. It is also possible to immigrate from my Gannan province, too. Build the Helan area into an impregnable wall in our true sense. The third thing is to strive for resettlement funds so that the people in the border areas can truly feel the warmth of the big family of the motherland. ”

Lu Shahai nodded and said, "Okay, Tang Cheng, after listening to the historical allusions you just told me, it inspired me a lot, I will be your logistics minister, you can do it boldly." ”

Tang Cheng said: " Very good, Lao Lu, we are not belligerent people, and we don't like to kill, I Tang Cheng doesn't like to kill people even more, I am all people who believe in Buddhism, but I, a person who believes in Buddhism, is to get off the horse and believe in Buddhism, get on the horse, I still want to kill thieves, for the motherland, for China, for our generations, the territory of our Huaxia country, can not lose half an inch in our hands, if I don't come forward, I recommend Xuanyuan with my blood, I can't have a little adventurous spirit and self-sacrificing spirit, give this contradiction and problem, to our future generations, our generation will be too selfish！”

Lu Shahai looked at Tang Cheng, and then he understood why Tang Cheng came here to govern this Helan region on behalf of the head of Huaxia!
