Chapter 127: Open the people's wisdom and fool the people's hearts

"Of course, in terms of position, most of them are the opposite of Hanting. But, as the generals said to them, it was another thing to win hearts and minds and appease the people. Wang Xian paused and continued, "I will not be cruel to the people under the command of the Han Court just because of the opposition to the Han Court in terms of position. Everyone understands this truth, after all, the people are not only the foundation of the Han Dynasty, but also the source of our troops. ”

"It is precisely because of this that the general's statement that day was passed back, and all the anti-kings would agree with the general's point of view." Wang Xian continued, "On the other hand, of course, everyone has their own thoughts, preserves their strength, and doesn't want to fight hard with the general. ”

"Based on these reasons, the anti-kings naturally pushed the boat to do what Fan Chong wanted." Wang Xian continued, "As for what they will do after this time, I don't know. ”

"If you're still in the coalition, what would you do?" Bao Hong greeted with a smile, people say empathy, it is better to let the anti-king think directly.

"I didn't know the height of the sky, I thought I was invincible in the world, I didn't take anyone in my eyes, and I thought I could solve all problems with my own house. Even Jia Fu, Gongsun Brothers and others cannot be said to have been defeated with confidence. Wang Xian said with a smile, "It wasn't until I met the general's command this time that I knew that there were people outside the world, and there was a sky outside the sky." ”

"If there is no such thing, I will definitely not say a word, and I will directly lead the army to attack the ancient city. It's just that after this battle, he was defeated here, and I heard that the general had shown great strength in the battle with the Gongsun brothers and others, even if those anti-kings had plans, they should be more cautious. ”

"So, the other party won't do anything?" Hearing Wang Xian say this, Bao Hong was puzzled.

"It's just to explain what they think, how they do it, that's not what they can know!" Wang Xian, as a general, naturally can't play this package ticket here.

"What do you think?" Bao Hong also knew that Wang Xian should not have so much thought, and it would depend on a few military advisors to specifically analyze the attitudes of those anti-kings.

"To be honest, if it's to preserve strength, it's nothing to take no action at all." Yan Zi was the first to speak this time, "One is that there is an agreement between the two sides, and the second is that the general's achievements along the way are also prominent, and it is normal to avoid his edge, and third, what we said at the beginning can be said to have taken the initiative in the 'righteousness', and if the other party forcibly attacked, the impact would be difficult to bear." ”

"Innocent!" Tian Qi on the side said disdainfully, "After so many years, you are still so naïve." Although there is no one to compare the grasp of the people's hearts in the small details, the overall situation and the ideas of the general public are too taken for granted, or too naïve. ”

"As far as you have a lot of thoughts, you can tell me what high opinions you have!" Yan Zi looked at Tian Qi, but he didn't have too much emotion. After all, from the original, Yan Zi is very clear about the difference between the two sides.

If Yan Zi is proficient in 'psychology', it is for individuals after all, at most small groups and so on. Relatively speaking, Tian Qi is good at the overall situation, the grasp and control of the overall situation. On the other hand, it can also be said to be a 'general trend'.

Different from Li Zuoche's general trend, Li Zuoche's general trend is the situation of troops and military momentum, and he is crushed by in a dignified and righteous way. The general trend of Tian Qi is generated internally, the guidance of public opinion, and the inducement of public opinion.

At this point, Yan Zi just mentioned the 'righteousness' propaganda, Tian Qi felt that Yan Zi's idea was too simple. In other words, Yan Zi's views on the overall situation cannot be said to be simple and naïve, but can only be said to be pure, as Yan Zi and even thinkers such as Confucius and Mencius, when considering it, he will not think of the people very badly, or very ignorant. They'll think about the problem in a better way.

After all, for them, the level of these people under their rule is the result of their education, how can they set the premise of the problem that the people are 'ignorant'?

Of course, having said that, the people themselves cannot be said to be ignorant or not ignorant, but can only be said to be simple. Of course, when it comes to it, there is no absolute conflict between these two terms.

It can be said that the people are the people, and it is the superior who really determines whether they are 'ignorant' or 'simple'.

The so-called water can carry a boat and also capsize a boat, the murder weapon is innocent, and the guilty is the murderer.

In many cases, the common people may be this tool, like Tian Qi's 'city state', controlling the whole country from the bottom up.

If the superior cares about the people, and all the people are united and united, then it must be everyone who picks up materials and creates a brilliant civilization.

However, in history, few of the many superiors have reached this height. On the one hand, it is because the superiors themselves have bad intentions, and on the other hand, it is too difficult to open up the wisdom of the people.

On the other hand, with the development of the times and the opening of the people's wisdom, at this stage, the idea of sacrificing oneself for others and sacrificing one's life for righteousness is gone forever.

Even to put it mildly, they are 'fooling the people' under the banner of opening up the people's wisdom.

When the people's wisdom is strong, the country is strong; If the people are intellectually weak, the nation will perish. For the key significance of people's wisdom in the rejuvenation of the country and the rise of the nation,

Ever since Confucius proposed the idea of "learning and excelling", the bureaucracy has been a social group with a high IQ, and the social elite is mainly concentrated here, and it seems that they are not the focus of the people's wisdom.

However, power can alienate people and make them ossified, and the drive of interests can turn some people into opponents of social justice and social progress. In the social changes of the past dynasties in China, most officials were constrained by their rights and status, and always stood on the opposite side of social reform, becoming a stumbling block for the wheels of history to roar forward. In a certain sense, the biggest obstacle to reform has mainly come from the guardians of vested interests of the old bureaucracy.

All the reforms since the Wuxu Reform and the Shang Dynasty have irrefutably proved this point. Therefore, when carrying out reform and reform, the wisdom of the opening of the government is unusually important. It can be said that the degree of improvement of official intelligence determines the difficulty and depth of reform. Moreover, under the influence of thousands of years of China's small-scale peasant society, officials are not only regarded by the common people as the "food and clothing parents" who determine their own destiny, but also as a role model, a goal to strive for, and the embodiment of morality. The thoughts and actions of officials are often models for the common people to imitate. It is no exaggeration to say that every move of an official has a great impact on the direction of the broad masses of the people, the fate of morality, and even the formation of social customs and values.

In China, officials have always been at the heart of society. Therefore, Kaiguanzhi has the decisive function of moving the whole body. Liang Qichao said very vividly: "The wisdom of the government is one inch, and the wisdom of the people is one foot long." "With the improvement of official intelligence and the continuous elimination of things that hinder advanced culture, there is great hope for the improvement of the quality of the Chinese people.
