Chapter 168: In the Dead Land

Chen Ce looked at the firm gazes of the other two brothers, smiled slightly, and turned his eyes back to say to the military advisor with a smile; "Now that the troubled times have begun, it is impossible to be obedient to the people, even if we are recruited, those landlords and old wealth will not return to us the land that has been occupied, and those corrupt officials and cool officials will no longer urge us to exploit the small people, even if we leaders can be awarded a half-official position, so what?"

Looking at the thoughtful people around him, Chen Ce continued: "The military advisor is right, the results of Shuibo Liangshan are there, and the results are not the ones who were persecuted by the emperor Lao'er and those traitors one by one without a place to be buried? Didn't you see it? Those generals and warriors who were seriously born in the court were suppressed by civil officials, as pigs and dogs, and they were always afraid that they would rebel. Everyone couldn't help but nodded, thinking that Chen Ce's long-term insight was reasonable.

"Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if we don't die, what about those villagers and elders who follow us? For a while, some of Zhao'an's food was dispersed, but in the end, their way out was only to be forced to exploit them, and go up the mountain and fall into the grass again or become homeless people starving to death in the ditch, at that time, we will either join forces with corrupt officials and cool officials to suppress them to survive, or we will rise up again to ask for the people's lives, but how easy is it to start again? At that time, we had lost the morale of the people, and think about it, who would want to fight a man who could abandon them at any time for their glory and wealth? ”

Everyone nodded their heads, and those who had hidden their hesitation and selfishness were also convinced to praise Chen Ce's analysis of the right way, so they quietly put away those small abacus.

"Rather than this, it is better to be like this now, step by step, under the leadership of the military advisor and the big boss, do a good job in this Woniu Mountain, which has become prosperous and powerful, and then realize the ideal world that you have described to us in your heart." Chen Ce said firmly.

Lu Shi glanced at Chen Ce gratefully, Chen Ce's words were spoken for Lu Shi in disguise, which was more direct and convincing.

"What did Brother Geng Kui say?" Lu Shi looked at Geng Kui again, Geng Kui was originally from the official army, and he also represented the attitude of a group of fugitive officials and soldiers in the cottage.

Geng Kui did not hesitate and said; "I just know that I am in the skin of an official and a soldier, and it is difficult to do something for the people, and now I know that there is a world like that for us, although it is vague, but it is definitely not what the emperor and immortals can give us, so I am willing to fight to the death."

Lu Shi nodded, and then looked at the other captains and a few others, "What do you think?" Don't be restrained, speak freely, and tell your thoughts for everyone's reference, whether it's right or wrong, you must still be brothers in the future. “

There is already Chen Ce's reasonable analysis, everyone knows what to do, and those people all nodded together; "Don't think about it, I will wait with Chen Ce and Gengkui brothers."

Looking at the exhausted Cao Meng again, Cao Meng said with a smile; "To be a citizen is to die, to be a pole is also to die, to rise up is still a yes, how to die, why not die more heroically? If you don't rebel, the dog emperor will kill all the eunuchs first, then kill all the dog officials, and then divide the world's fertile land equally, so why don't we do it? His words drew laughter from everyone.

"Third Uncle---

"Haha, don't look at me, I'm half buried, I can watch you live happily, I see that you don't lose your family, and I still point to you for the elderly."

"What does Sister Chunlan think?"

In this era, women are only subordinates of men, and they have no status at all, and they don't need to be consulted for anything, but Lu Shi comes from later generations, but he doesn't have such habits, and women are also a force in the cottage and should be respected. Besides, since Chunlan broke away from his brother and followed everyone to Woniu Mountain, everyone has treated this bold and cheerful little girl as a sister baby.

"Me, me." Chunlan slipped her eyes at Lu Shi, her little face was as red as a fire coal, and it took a long time for her to say softly; "I listen to you, do whatever you say."

As soon as these words came out, it caused everyone to laugh for a while, especially Guo Tianxing's laughter was the loudest, and his eyes were still floating between Chunlan and Lu Shi, and suddenly Guo Tianxing's laughter stopped abruptly, holding his feet and inhaling the cold air, and people laughed even more happily after being stunned.

Lu Shi stopped everyone's laughter awkwardly and said with a smile; "Since everyone is one mind, in this troubled era, only everyone can survive if they are twisted into a rope, and only then can they take the villagers and elders who follow us to create a new world. But now we're going to start talking about where we're going in the future. ”

As soon as they heard this big issue, everyone immediately straightened up.

"Although we are determined to do a great cause, we are still very weak now, and we can only grow slowly in the struggle step by step, so what we need to do now is to avoid the enemy's edge and develop a new king."

"Yes, the words of the military advisor are in charge of the new king." Chen Ce was the first to speak to echo Lu Shi, Chen Ce felt that this Woniu Mountain was not as hierarchical as other cottages, and the big bosses were all stubborn and self-serving, pointing fingers there, and the whole cottage was a hall of words, and here, Guo Tianxing's heroic righteousness relied heavily on Lu Shi, and Lu Shi was in charge of everything, and this Lu Shi was humble and steady, and he had to take it out for everyone to discuss in case of trouble.

"Now the Ming Dynasty, stiff and not dead, it is not something we can shake alone, we still need the people of the world to work together, so that we can seize the opportunity to break into the new king when the court is too busy to take care of itself. The world is about to be in turmoil, this is well known, we have to be in the real chaos before the come, recuperate and develop strongly, the original Taizu slogan - accumulate grain, slow to become the king, is talking about our current situation of the new king. "He is worthy of being a scholar, and his words are convincing to the new king.

Lu Shi nodded and praised: "Brother Chen Ce's words are the most reasonable, we just can't be the rafters who are in the early stages, the early birds, they became the target of the public when we were not ready, can you agree with this strategic policy?" ”

The people in the room, led by Guo Tianxing and Zhao Dahai, nodded together in agreement with the idea of the military advisor and Chen Ce.

Lu Shi continued to slowly pace in the middle of the lobby and said, "Since we have made this decision, then we have to find a place suitable for us to develop and grow, which is very important for the new king. ”

Zhao Dahai sat up straight and couldn't help asking, "Isn't it bad here?" ”

Everyone also muttered together, now that the cottage has been reinforced, the money and food are abundant, and the people and horses are even stronger, according to what the military advisor just said, isn't this a good place to bury your head in development? Why did the military advisor say that this is not a place for development, and the new king is the king.

Lu Shi smiled, and after everyone's voice was quieter, he analyzed for everyone: "Mizhi, the land of the four wars, there are the most elite trilateral border troops of the Ming Dynasty in the north, and there are countless powerful landlord fortresses in various places, and it is close to the Yan'an Governor's Office, and there is the Yellow River moat in the west. According to my observation (actually a historical prophet), this Shaanxi will have a drought for at least seven or eight years, and there will be nothing to grab in this palm-sized place, so let's not talk about tens of thousands of horses, it is these thousands of people, starving us to death in this new king. ”

As soon as Lu Shizhi's words came out, the hall was full of inhaling sounds, and everyone was looking at the square inch in front of them for a small fight, and they didn't think it was anything, but they were let go of their eyes by the military advisor.

The worst thing is that the military advisor said that there will be a big drought for ten years, my mother, won't even grass grow? Where is the food?

No one doubts the words of the military advisor, in their eyes, Lu Shi is the original Zhuge Liang, not only with soldiers like a god, but also absolutely able to go five hundred years ago, five hundred years later, astronomy and geography are omniscient, or how to have a longbow windmill, quilt to make a new king.

"There's also the issue of soldiers, the new king." Geng Kui frowned and said to the new king. As an old soldier who is familiar with military affairs, he has a deeper view of the problem of soldiers than the captains who put down their hoes and pick up their knives and guns.

"Now there is a big rise of displaced people in various places, almost all the people are either starving to death in the ditch, or fleeing to the south, or being coerced by various cottages, there is no longer much room to expand the people and horses, there are still some, but they are all old and weak who can only eat and cannot go into battle, and they are not of any use to our development, and we have no soldiers and horses, so we will not become new kings."

"Yes, Brother Geng Kui saw another dead knot in this place, that is, there was no endless source of soldiers to replenish the new king." Lu Shi affirmed Geng Kui's opinion, and was also pleased that Geng Kui could have such insight.

Lu Shi went up the mountain and accepted the position of Tianxing's military advisor, but he met a big boss who was willing to be the shopkeeper, and there was no way, consciously or unconsciously, he provoked the new king of the whole thing in this cottage.

But Lu Shi did not rely on the foresight of the traverser, everything was arbitrary, the traverser only controlled the general direction of history, and it was impossible to even know the small details, in fact, it was often the details that determined the success or failure of the new king.

Therefore, try your best to take things out and discuss with everyone, make up for your own defects and loopholes in the controversy, and slowly cultivate everyone's habit of thinking.

Zhao Dahai didn't think about his cavalry problem at this time, so he also sat up straight and said worriedly: "Actually, that's all in the future, there is a big hurdle in front of us, and we are already standing on the edge of the cliff King Xinchuang ." "The family is stubborn and self-serving, pointing fingers there, the whole cottage is a word hall, and here, the stars are bold and righteous to rely heavily on Lu Shi, everything is Lu Shi's master, and this Lu Shi is modest and steady, and everyone has to take it out for discussion, the whole cottage has really achieved a harmonious atmosphere, vigorous and upward, and he has let go of his original cautious thoughts, and he is willing to express his opinions in case of trouble.

"Now the Ming Dynasty, stiff and not dead, it is not something we can shake alone, we still need the people of the world to work together, so that we can seize the opportunity to break into the new king when the court is too busy to take care of itself.
