Chapter 253: Role Models and Blind Obedience

"Intercepting the Sky Yaksha" He Man is the general of the Yellow Turban Army in Yingchuan and Runan, the Yellow Turban Qu Shuai in Yingchuan and Runan in the early days, and later Zhang Jiao penetrated the secrets of the "Taiping Book of Heaven" and resurrected a large number of anti-kings in the previous dynasties, and the high-level generals and schools were replenished at once, so the Yellow Turbans in Yingchuan became the rule of Yingbu, Peng Yue and others.

Yingbu, Peng Yue and a group of anti-kings in the early Han Dynasty were naturally much more powerful than He Man and others, and they quickly integrated their forces and obtained quite a lot of results, and it can even be said that they seriously threatened the Han Emperor in Luoyang.

Therefore, Emperor Han was also forced to take out the remaining elite of the old seeds of the Han Dynasty, and there was a stalemate between the two sides.

The two sides are at a stalemate and have been locked in a protracted standoff. As the ancestor of guerrilla warfare, Peng Yue naturally did his old job, and directly led a group of people to copy the back road of the Han army, that is, at the beginning, he said that he would make a detour to Jingzhou to attack inside and outside, including He Man and these Yellow Turban soldiers.

As a result, he coincidentally collided with Bao Hong and others who were also preparing to make a detour to Jingzhou to outflank the enemy, and the two sides launched a fierce confrontation, He Yi was killed, He Man was captured, etc., and then Bao Hong led the army south to Jingzhou, leaving Dong Zhuo to confront Peng Yue, and even took Peng Yue.

And now it is He Man and the group of yellow turbans from Yingchuan and Runan who are shouting under Pei Xingjian's order, to be honest, they and those yellow turban soldiers in the current hostile camp can be said to be from the same place, even from neighboring villages and even from the same village.

As for the effect of this, it is of course very huge.

It can be said that people are very strange animals, especially in these things, even if people hear it, they will not pay attention to you, and even the more beautiful and tempting you say, the more he does not believe it, and the more he has to be guarded.

Therefore, China has a lot of words to describe this, what is indecisive, afraid of the tiger and afraid of the wolf, the sky will not drop pies, the courtesy must be asked for by people, and nothing will be done to go to the Three Treasures Palace. Of course, if you want to say something good, be cautious, be cautious, seek truth from facts, and so on, and the same is true now, in the face of the Han army's verbal promises, not many people in the Yellow Turban soldiers took this matter to heart, and it can even be said that they are full of all kinds of doubts and concerns, but if they really want to set an example or be typical, and even gain huge benefits because of this, then the masses are frantically pouring up.

The most important thing is that this matter is not only the common people and ordinary people are very blind, even all kinds of top people will also have a lot of concerns and confusion in the face of such promises and interests.

Don't think that the top guys can see through everything, in fact, it's all about the same.

There are two typical and even very influential events in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period that can illustrate this assertion.

This example of the common people is called "migrating wood to get letters", also called "standing trees to get letters", "standing trees to build letters", etc., all talking about the same thing.

At the beginning, Shang Ying changed the law and introduced a new law. Everyone knows that the Shang Dynasty reform is a great thing, after the Shang Dynasty reform, the old system of the Qin State was completely abolished, the feudal economy has been developed, and the Qin State gradually became the strongest country among the Seven Heroes of the Warring States, laying a solid foundation for the later Qin Dynasty to unify the world.

However, although it is said that after the promulgation of the decree of the Shang Dynasty Reform Law, although the content of these decrees is to punish bad people to protect the rights of the people, encourage farming and weaving to increase the financial resources of the people, advocate military exploits to establish national prestige, and take the poor and lazy as slaves to eliminate the loss of human and material resources. It can be said that each and every one of them is a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, and it can enable the people to obtain tangible benefits.

The problem is, you portrayed it so well that I couldn't believe it, pie in the sky? It's impossible for a pie to fall from the sky, isn't it going to be poisonous?

It was with this idea that the people did not dare to believe in Shang Ying's decree at all, and Shang Ying's reform of the law could be said to be completely ineffective at the beginning.

So what to do?

Shang Ying thought of a solution, so he ordered people to place a three-zhang high log in front of the south gate of the capital market, and posted a notice saying that he would recruit those who could move the wood and stand at the north gate, and give him ten gold (brass).

When the people saw it, they wondered, there was such a good thing? Pie in the sky? With such suspicions, no one dared to move wood at all. Then Shang Ying said, "Whoever can afford to carry wood to the north gate will be rewarded with fifty gold." ”

Finally, a man went to move the wood with the mentality of trying it out, and Shang Ying was very decisive and immediately gave him fifty gold, through which he showed that he did not deceive the people. Eventually, the law was effectively implemented.

Needless to say, the impact of this incident is not very similar to the current situation.

As for the examples of some top capable people who also have such a mentality, I have mentioned it more or less before, but when I mentioned that case, what was introduced was not this one reason, but the reason for the need for Corporal Lixian.

This example is the famous Yan Zhao Wang Qiushi, a thousand gold to buy horse bones, and a golden platform to worship the general.

As mentioned earlier, Corporal Lixian of Yanzhao Wang appointed people on the basis of merit, so talents rushed to gather in Yan State, and only then did they have the glory of Le Yi and Qi.

In fact, after King Yan Zhao cleaned up the ruined Yan Kingdom and ascended to the throne, he was a corporal and used a rich dowry to recruit talents, wanting to rely on them to avenge the killing of his father by Po Yan of Qi State.

However, just shouting that people will come back to do things for you? Who knows if what you're saying is true or false? To be reasonable, which monarch doesn't shout when recruiting talents? How many are actually doing it? Run over with a fart, you just give a magistrate and a county order or what?

(Leiyang County Ling Pang Tong, Xindu County Ling Fa Zheng............ )

King Yan Zhao was also helpless about this situation, so he went to see Mr. Guo Kui, hoping that he could help him find a way.

So Guo Kui told King Yan Zhao a story of "a thousand gold buys bones", this is the old routine, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, those people would not directly and fiercely explain their views, but through a fable to explain their views, there is such a buffer space, and the superior will also feel easy to accept.

The story is simple, there was once a monarch who admired the Maxima described in the book very much, but did not see it with his own eyes. He gave one of his men a thousand taels of gold and asked him to buy a horse for a thousand miles to return. The man went to all the people who kept horses in the land, but he could not find them. One day, he saw a group of people in a circle talking and sighing, so he walked over and asked. It turned out that there happened to be a good horse who unfortunately died, and everyone felt pity and sighed at the horse's bones. So the man bought the horse's bones for five hundred taels of gold, and all the people were surprised. When this man returned home and saw the king, the king was very angry when he saw it, and said, "I asked you to buy a horse, and you bought a dead horse and came back, what is the use?" How do you know it's Maxima? What useless rubbish! Retire! But the man said, "Don't be angry, my lord, and let the servants finish their words before punishing me." The reason why I bought this dead horse is precisely so that you can get more live horses. You think, everyone feels new and strange about my move, and they will definitely talk about it and tell each other. Even a good horse that died was so valued by the king, let alone a really alive BMW? So don't worry, I promise someone will be coming to your door with Maxima soon. As a result, in less than a year, everyone in the country who had a good horse came to see the king.

After saying that, Guo Kui said, just like the king in the story, if you want to recruit talents, you need to find a thousand miles, start with me, a horse bone who has no ability; If you respect a person like me who is incompetent, then someone who is better than me will come to you.

So King Zhao built him a palace called Jintai, and the hall was called "Zunxian Hall", and respected him as a teacher. As a result, Le Yi, Zou Yan, Ju Xin and other talented people all came to join the Yan Kingdom, and the Yan Kingdom became stronger.

So, where did Le Yi and them squat before that? Don't know if King Yan Zhao is seeking talent? The problem is that although I know that you are asking for talent, I don't know if you are serious, whether you will really reuse me, and it is not good to rush to take refuge!
