Chapter 146: Disaster Relief Wins the Hearts of the People
"On this occasion, the old general can issue a recruitment order, regardless of moral quality, meritocracy. As long as he is confident in his own talent, he can come to vote, and the old general will determine his official position according to his talent. This can expand the power of the Hanmen and pave the way for the future. ”
"Tangshan's words are very good, so I will call Wen Ruo and others to discuss this matter."
"The old general is slow, there is still one thing, the old general can also bring up the matter of supervision at this time."
"Will the plan be released?"
Li Tangshan said with a smile: "The old general will know when he arrives. ”
After everyone arrived, Ren Huan said: "Today, in the locust plague, you all wear many positions, and there are also vacancies of officials in various places, so I want to issue a recruitment order to provide opportunities for the world's wise men to realize their ambitions like King Yan Zhao." ”
Zhao Tuo said: "The old general's move is not impossible, in troubled times, it should be ruled by the world's wise men, but I don't know what the old general wants?" ”
Ren Huan smiled: "I don't know what you think?" ”
Li Tangshan said at this time: "Old general, I think the first condition is talent, only talent, and everything else can be considered for the time being." ”
"Tang Shan's words are inappropriate," Zhao Tuo retorted, "If you have no virtue and talent, and then occupy an official position, won't you harm the people?" ”
"Lord Zhao has a different idea. The ancestors once said that if a person is not a saint, how can he do things perfectly, so it is normal for a talented person to have a slight loss of virtue, as long as your colleagues supervise each other, if someone is really a great evil, you can tell the old general, and the old general will judge it according to the facts, and there should be no major trouble. ”
Seeing that everyone was talking, Ren Huan shouted, "Quiet." What do you think of what Tangshan has to say? ”
Everyone looked at each other a few times, and someone said, "What Lord Zhao said is not unreasonable, but if someone does not show up, how can we know it, so this law is not appropriate." ”
Li Tangshan knew that someone had taken the bait, so he said: "It's not unreasonable for you to worry, it's better to let the old general order someone to do this thing, so that those who have evil intentions will have nothing to hide." ”
Hearing this, Ren Huan glanced at Li Tangshan, then looked at the person who spoke before and said, "Tangshan's words are not unavoidable, I don't know what you think?" Or could there be an easier way than Tangshan? ”
Everyone had nothing to say, and when Ren Huan saw this, he said: "In this case, let's do what Tang Shan said, okay?" ”
"The ministers obey the orders of the old general."
Ren Hao smiled: "Tangshan, you raised this matter, but there is anything that needs attention?" ”
"Old general, this is Rong Caochuang, and it has not yet been intensively studied, but if the old general wants to really do what Tangshan said, Rong needs to instruct the old general that those who do this can only have the right to supervise, and they must not be given the power to judge and other powers."
"I know," Ren said arrogantly, "since this is the case, it is good to set up an official position, and it will be carried out by a special person." ”
"No."
Ren Huan looked around and said: "At the beginning of the discussion, the conclusion has not yet been reached, so Tangshan will be responsible first, and it will be discussed after it is improved." ”
"No."
In this case, Zhao Tuo drafted a recruitment order and scattered to various places. That's it for today, so let's stand down. ”
Everyone wanted to retreat, Ren shouted to stop Li Tangshan, and said: "Tangshan still needs to stay in Poyang for a few more days, you have no family in Poyang, it is quite deserted, it is better to come to my house first, and we can catch up with the old days." ”
Everyone thought that there would be no more problems with this locust plague, but as time went on, the situation did not seem to be very optimistic.
Xu place, Poyang, and the people in the general's mansion were full of anxiety, no one expected that the locust plague would be so harmful, and the number of victims was increasing, even if Xu was rich, it could not be alleviated.
Cheng Rui said at this time: "Old general, the victims are gathering more and more, and the food is about to run out. ”
Lan Hu and the others were helpless. Nowadays, the only available food is military food, but military food cannot be moved lightly, but in this situation, I am afraid that I will not understand it. Lan Hu then said: "Old general, only now, there is only military rations. Otherwise, there is no salvation from repentance. ”
Ren Huan actually knew in his heart that this method was only available at this time, but he was afraid that he would go under this situation, and he was afraid that even the military rations would not be able to sustain it. Ren Huan couldn't make up his mind, so he asked everyone, "Do you have any other good plans?" ”
Everyone buried their heads, they also knew what Ren Huan was worried about, but they didn't dare to imagine that kind of situation. At this time, Daojian said: "Old general, there is no other way than the law of Chu Tangshan. And at this time, we can only allow the victims to flow to other places, and we cannot afford such a large number of victims with the strength of Xu. ”
Yu Weizhou asked at this time: "I wonder if the old general has turned to the Minyue royal family for help?" ”
Ren Huan said: "After all, the Minyue royal family does not have much food, and they have already helped some of it before, and they have no spare strength at this time. Although he has money, who can sell it in this world? ”
After listening to Ren Huan's words, everyone didn't admit that there was any hope. Ren Huan looked at these people and said, "Just act according to what Tang Shan and Zhao Tuo said, and go down first." ”
It seems that everything has its own consciousness, and it always likes to challenge people's potential. After a period of disaster relief, the news that caused Ren Huan's headache came again: the military food was afraid that it was not enough to support it, and now the army has eaten mulberries to survive.
Even with the wealth of Xu, Ren Huan is powerless to stop this locust plague, let alone the secluded places and green places, which are either bitter cold or war-torn places. People all over the world were praying that the locust plague would pass quickly.
The displaced people from all over the country heard that only Xianyang had food to receive now, so they flocked to Xianyang one after another. At this time, no matter how much surplus food there was, they couldn't hold on, so everyone once again discussed the matter.
No one in the room spoke, they were all thinking in silence, and at this time, they were also faced with the same choice as Ren Huan, whether they should use military rations or not. Ren Huan couldn't calm down, so he asked, "What do you think?" ”
Everyone looked at Li Tangshan and Zhao Tuo in front of them, they knew that only these two people's ideas might be effective at this time, but it was difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and in the face of this situation of running out of ammunition and food, the two were helpless. Li Tangshan said to Ren Huan: "Old general, at this time, you can only use military rations, and use the grain of the southern expeditionary army camp to draw part of the military rations from all over the country, or you can face the crisis at this time." ”
After listening to Li Tangshan's words, Ren Huan glanced at Zhao Tuo again, Zhao Tuo shook his head when he saw this, and lowered his head. Ren Huan knew that he could only do this, so he said: "You will immediately transfer military rations according to what Tang Shan said, and as for the food of the southern expeditionary army's camp, it will be collected by Lanhu and sent to various places." ”
Perhaps God also knew that everyone's potential was exhausted, and after a few days, the disaster slowly subsided. Officials everywhere breathed a sigh of relief at this point, because if it continued, everyone did not know what would happen.
After some time, the locust plague finally passed, and the victims began to prepare to return slowly, although some of them stayed. At this time, the local officials need to do a good job of returning to their hometowns and stabilizing the victims. For Ren Huan and others, it is important to arrange the return of displaced people who have been displaced to other places, and for Ren Huan, at this time, the face is how to maximize the use of these displaced people.
