Guo Bin really didn't know whether to describe Zhu Fu with a bookish spirit, or to describe him as arrogant and arbitrary.

In Guo Bin's opinion, since he twice expressed his willingness to help in forming a new army and attacking Lin Yi Kingdom, then if Zhu Fu is knowledgeable, or if he really has the secret will of the Son of Heaven, he should take it out at this time. After all, Guo Bin is the Yingchuan Taishou of 2,000 stones, and he also has the name of a general who breaks Xianbei Zhonglang, although his status is not as good as Zhu Jun, but he is really a local powerful faction with great authority, let alone a small soldier who obeys orders at any time under his command. In addition, Guo Bin fought in the south and the north, fought dozens of large and small battles, and did not meet the defeat, which can be described as a famous shock in China and a sound broadcast at home.

Now that Guo Bin is in such an capacity, he has made it clear that he is willing to do his best in the matter of Zhu Fu forming a new army and attacking Linyi, which greatly lowers his status and puts national affairs first. If it is according to the rules, since Guo Bin has expressed support for Zhu Fu's actions, then Zhu Fu should justify this matter. The so-called righteous name is nothing more than the edict or secret decree of the Son of Heaven, and with the name of righteousness, it is also for the people below to be able to use it for themselves without scruples. In addition, a thorough understanding of Guo Bin is also the proper meaning of the question. This is to show his respect, and the second is An Guobin's heart. At this time, if there is such a big thing to hide from Guo Bin, it is not cautious, but clearly saying that he can't be trusted.

Since Zhu Fu did not indicate that he harbored the secret edict of the Son of Heaven, there were only two possibilities.

The first is that he has no secret edict at all, and the name of this battle is not justified, and it is a real unwarranted provocation. The second is that although he has a secret edict, he is afraid to take it out, so the reason can only be that Guo Bin has not fully gained his trust. However, Guo Bin believes that even in the second case, this Zhu Fu is by no means a person who can achieve great things. Because since you want to do big things, you still don't dare to tell Guo Bin the truth, this is not called prudence, this is called hate. If you can't trust people completely, how can they do their best for you? It's not that you have to trust everyone you meet, at least you have to make a look like you treat the other party as a confidant! Life in the world depends on acting skills, and even more so for those who engage in politics. If you don't have a little bit of bells and whistles, how can you get people to work for you?

Therefore, in either case, it can only prove Zhu Fu's audacity. It's good that this kind of person uses each other, but if they cooperate sincerely, they will definitely die without a place to bury. Because this kind of self-righteous person is a kind of pig teammate, and you will be killed by him if you don't know it.

When Guo Bin and others listened to Zhu Fu's speech again, Fang was sent out of the house. At this time, not only Guo Bin, but also Guan Yu and Zhang Fei also sensed that something was wrong. Therefore, as soon as he returned to the Shifu, Guan Yu said to Guo Bin: "Lord, Zhu Fu seems to be..."

Guo Bin smiled and said slowly: "Although this person has great ambitions, his talents are quite insufficient. These few points of scholarly business may be competent to supervise hundreds of officials, and if they are entrusted with military affairs, they will definitely mislead the country and the king. To put it simply, Guo Bin's evaluation of Zhu Fu is just four words, that is, Zhida is talented.

He pulled Guo Bin and a few people for a long time, in addition to drawing a beautiful blueprint, it is to ensure that your benefits are indispensable, and he has never talked about specific affairs. For example, where and how to recruit the new army, how many people to recruit for each branch of the army, how to distribute equipment, how to transport food and grass, how many soldiers can be recruited in Linyi country, and where they can withstand war. It is not even mentioned which route the army will take, whether it will take by water or by land. Not to mention how many arrows and siege equipment are prepared, and who is sent to be the vanguard and who is the commander.

When Guo Bin asked about the details of the march, or how to set up a village, how to march and other things, he Zhu Fu could always pull "the army has not moved, and the grain and grass go first". I finally read a few pages of "The Art of War" in a hurry, otherwise I wouldn't even be able to say this, right?

Dong Xing'er, who had been waiting in the small courtyard of Shifu, asked, "Then this time, do you want to cooperate with him?" ”

Guo Bin nodded and said: "Cooperation is to cooperate, although he is a simple man, his heart of serving the country and protecting the people is good." This matter is not a personal grudge, but it is all for the sake of state affairs. Even without the Jiaozhou soldiers temporarily recruited by Zhu Fu, the fifty iron guards of my Fulong Villa will also break into this so-called Linyi country. ”

Hearing Guo Bin's words, Huang Zhong's eyes flashed on the side. A hero like him with superb martial arts, although he is inevitably dragged down in his career because of his children's personal affairs, none of them has ever been a fly camp and a dog, otherwise he would never be able to practice martial arts to this point. There are many ways to become rich, and the reasons for people to be poor are also internally unified.

Many poor people also get up early and stay late, tired all day long, and their backs hurt, but they are still too poor to eat. What they lack most is not the determination to struggle, nor the habit of diligence, but the ambition to become rich, the pattern of becoming a master, and the vision of becoming a successful person.

When a person spends his days seeing some law enforcement officers driving away roadside vendors, what he is striving for is to study hard and get into the civil service. Although the goal is not to bully the poor, at least not to be bullied, right? And when a person sees all day long that his relatives and friends have become the first to get rich by setting up factories and engaging in industry, he is also striving to build factories and be bosses. Therefore, some places are rich, and some people are rich in the catering industry, which is prosperous, and even relatives and friends, and even fellow villagers in the village, have also begun to do their own business. This is the difference in vision and pattern, resulting in a completely different life trajectory.

Even if you write, if you don't have a vision of becoming a god in a book, you won't be precisely conceived in the plot, and you will not be able to become a god if you repeatedly carve words and sentences. Napoleon's remark that "a soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier" is also quite reasonable from this point of view.

After a person's martial arts reach a certain level, his vision of the world is also different. In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the reason why Lu Bu was so arrogant and domineering, disobeying Ding Yuan, Dong Zhuo, Liu Bei, and even Cao Cao He was not convinced is really a deep-seated reason. Because he is well-deserved to be the first in the world, his pride is engraved in his bones. His self-confidence is not the ignorant arrogance of a newborn calf, but is based on the fact that he is the best in the world, beyond doubt.

Huang Zhong is also similar, the so-called one law is all over ten thousand laws, after practicing martial arts to such a realm, his vision is also high, a homeless person who can't even eat enough, it is difficult for you to talk to him about nationalism. Therefore, when Huang Zhong heard Guo Bin's words of dedication to the public, he couldn't help but feel a confidant in his heart. This reminded him of what Huang Xu said to him when the father and son were sitting opposite each other.

Although his son has been frail since he was a child, and he does not like to talk, he is extremely intelligent and wise. That night, Huang Xu said to Huang Zhong: "The father delayed his future for his son's illness, and the son was extremely uneasy in his heart. Stopping Huang Zhong, who was about to speak, Huang Xu continued: "The land of the four battles in Jingzhou, Nanyang is a place where the people of Nanyang are outstanding and spiritual, and it is the place where Emperor Guangwu is prosperous, and the family is entrenched in the middle. However, during this period, the wealthy families, the Deng family and the Yin family were destroyed; Li, Wu, Jia, Cen and other great clans in the early years of the dynasty were also withered in talent. Now the yellow scarves are everywhere, the world is in turmoil, heroes from all over the world are rising, and Nanyang has no one to rely on. Once something happens in the future, it will either change the court and be a second minister, or it will be a foolish loyalty, and in the end, it will be the end of the death of the people and the annihilation. ”

Huang Zhong fell silent when he said this, he has always listened to Huang Xu's words, and what he said in this remark is also reasonable.

Liu Xiu, the Guangwu Emperor who founded the Eastern Han Dynasty, was originally a native of Nanyang, and in the last years of Xinmang, Liu Xiu raised troops in his hometown, and finally became the co-lord of the world after a twelve-year unification war. At the beginning of the founding of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Nanyang people had an absolute advantage in the court, and among the 28 generals of Yuntai, there were 13 people from Nanyang. The three founding princes of Emperor Guangwu: Deng Yu is the Great Situ, Li Tong is the Sikong, and Wu Han is the Great Sima, all of whom are from Nanyang.

Later, in order to strengthen the centralization of power and enhance the central government's control over the localities, Emperor Guangwu decided to retire from the meritorious officials and enter the civil servants, and the military merit group all returned home with the invitation of the princes and no longer participated in the court politics, except for three people: Deng Yu, Li Tong, and Jia Fu, all of whom were from Nanyang.

However, even if the ancestors had snatched so many good cards, they could not stop the corruption of the unscrupulous descendants. None of the wealthy families in Nanyang succeeded in transforming the Shiren family into a family in the late Han Dynasty. According to the statistics of Mr. Feng Shiming in "Research on the Regional Composition of Bureaucrats in the Eastern Han Dynasty", there were 52 officials from Nanyang in the three dynasties of Guangwu, Emperor Ming, and Emperor Zhang, 38 from Emperor He to Emperor Shun, and 12 after Emperor Huan.

What Huang Xu meant in his words was that now the Han family's country was afraid of turmoil, and Jingzhou was in the land of four wars, which would inevitably cause people from all walks of life to scramble. However, Nanyang has never appeared a wealthy family that can lead everyone to compete for the world and protect Nanyang. If you have to serve Jingzhou, there are only two results: one is to change the court repeatedly in order to save your life and become a second minister; The other is to be foolish and loyal to a ruler, and to die and destroy the clan. Obviously, neither of these endings is too ideal.

What Huang Xu did not say was that Nanyang, as an imperial township, had an extremely developed economy and a special political status. After Qin Shi Huang unified the Six Kingdoms, he "moved the unscrupulous people to Nanyang", and these so-called "unscrupulous people" were the wealthy people of the Six Kingdoms and the merchants and craftsmen who were good at business. Because in the eyes of the just-established Qin Dynasty, the most dangerous thing is the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, these rich people are all inextricably linked with the Six Royal Families, and these people are rich, educated, and knowledgeable, and they are the people who should be guarded against. The national policy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce led to the inclusion of merchants and craftsmen in the scope of "unscrupulous people".

It is these factors that have made Nanyang's economy develop rapidly, especially the extremely developed iron-smelting industry, and it has become one of the world's famous iron-smelting industry centers. Therefore, in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the developed economy, the wealthy wealthy family, and the extremely high output of the iron-smelting industry have become the magnet that attracts the heroes from all walks of life to attack Nanyang, and the chaos in Nanyang is also expected.

However, including Guo Bin, everyone didn't see that this sickly and spiritless young man with few words could have such sharp eyes and extraordinary knowledge.
