Chapter 132: Seeking Talent
The days of winter should be the longest.
Especially after a war, South Korea has long been depleted of food, and ordinary people have to starve for the whole winter. If it is a poor family, I am afraid that there will be several new mournings in the coming year.
Even those who are as wealthy as Luoyang have not been able to get much better.
Therefore, when the Tiger Prison Pass, which is only more than 100 miles away from Luoyang, began to recruit manpower, many people who couldn't get through it flocked to it.
The guards of the Tiger Prison Pass have already been instructed by Xia Huan, and those who come will not refuse.
Working and taking food, which is a natural thing in later generations, is extremely rare in this era.
So, in less than a month, Xia Huan's reputation resounded throughout the land of Sanchuan.
At first, South Korea was unimpressed. Korea is a subordinate of the strong men in the west, and although Xia Huan is famous, it does not have much impact on them.
Even, many people secretly laughed at Xia Huan and wasted food on those mud legs.
However, the change is always too sudden.
I don't know when it began, but there were only tens of thousands of South Korean troops left, and a large number of escapees began to appear.
From the Xingyang people at the beginning, to the Sanchuan people later. Even, in the end, some of the Shangdang people ran to the east of the Tiger Prison Pass.
Is this still worth it?
Han Zizhao, the king of Han who was hiding in Luoyang City, hurriedly ordered the official road from Luoyang to Tiger Prison blocked.
Not only that, but also killed many escaped soldiers and their families who were captured. In this way, the chaos in the army was barely stopped.
The chaos in the army was easy to stop, but it still couldn't stop the hungry people who tried their best to escape to the Tiger Prison Kanto.
"Your Highness, in the past few days, the number of people who have fled from Luoyang is probably no less than 10,000!" In the palace, Chen Zhaoming excitedly waved the paper at Xia Huan.
However, Xia Huan, who hadn't had a good rest for more than a month, just waved his hand and said a little weakly: "After the repair of the tiger prison is completed, the people who fled from the west will be resettled on the spot." Draw out the sturdy men among them, and garrison the fields. Wear armor in wartime, and farm in wartime. ”
"Your Highness is wise!" Chen Zhaoming arched his hand and said energetically.
"In this way, these people will definitely defend the tiger prison and not let the Han army step further!"
These are all people who fled from South Korea, if Sanchuan is retaken by South Korea, those deserters who were beheaded outside Luoyang City will be the fate of these traitors in the future, how dare they not sell their lives?
Xia Huan was shouted by Chen Zhaoming, and his head, which was originally a little muddy, couldn't help but sober up a little.
Xia Huan, who was a little sober, couldn't help but feel a little confused at the same time.
This decree was just something he did casually, and he didn't think about it that much at the time.
"Is it just a coincidence, or have I subconsciously thought about it so much?" Xia Huan thought helplessly in his heart.
"Brain, sure enough, the more you use it, the more flexible it becomes!"
Xia Huan stood up and stretched out without any image.
"However, those who are kings must not bow down to everything, and it is the right way to control people."
Rubbing his somewhat sour eyes again, Xia Huan said to Chen Zhaoming: "Zhaoming, you put aside the things at hand first, there is one thing that you have to do in person." ”
"Your Highness, please command, Zhaoming will definitely be completed!"
Chen Zhaoming arched his hand, revealing a serious expression. It smells like a military order.
Xia Huan was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "It's not a big deal." ”
"Your Highness, please command!"
Chen Zhaoming's face was still serious, and the muscles on his face were even tighter.
Xia Huan forcibly pressed Chen Zhaoming's raised hand, and then said, "I want to build a recruiting platform in the east of Xingyang City." ”
"Recruiting Desk?" Chen Zhaoming was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Is it like King Yan Zhao's golden platform?" ”
King Yan Zhao, the king of Zhongxing in Yan Kingdom, bought horse bones with his daughter and built a golden platform, which has always been rumored to be a good story.
Now that Xia Huan actually has the intention of following suit, Chen Zhaoming still didn't react.
"That's why I said it's not a big deal." Xia Huan patted Chen Zhaoming's shoulder and said.
"Then why does Your Highness have to let me go?" Chen Zhaoming was still a little puzzled.
Although recruiting talents is a big deal, it is not so easy. Chen Zhaoming believes that he does not have such an influence, which can make talented people in the world flock to him.
"Most of the people around me are in the army, and they don't know how to write and ink. This time to recruit talents, my purpose is to seek Xiao He Zhang Liang's talent. However, these people have their own Ao. It's just you, who have been reading with me since childhood, and in addition to being exquisite, your identity and family deserve to meet them. ”
"Well, Zhaoming understands." Chen Zhaoming nodded, and was about to turn around and start to handle it, but his steps were stunned.
"What's wrong?" Xia Huan asked.
"Your Highness, is this recruitment platform a big office or a small office?"
"If you don't do much, how can you get talent?" Xia Huan asked with a smile.
"But, Your Highness, you are talented, but you are not famous. If you want to get talents, even if you build a golden platform, how can you get talents? ”
Chen Zhaoming's words are not without some truth.
Xia Huan's current reputation is also relatively loud near Yingshang Shoudu, and it is impossible to count Linzi anymore. Even Sanchuan is still just among ordinary people.
Truly talented people don't just come to run for it.
What's more, Xia Huan's new seal of Sanchuan is still lacking, and it is even more difficult for those who can be found.
Regarding this question, Xia Huan fell into thought.
"Your Highness, forgive your subordinates for saying too much. Instead of attracting talents, small offices will be perceived as stingy and attract criticism. However, if it is a big deal, there is no talent to come, and when the time comes, I am afraid that it will be His Highness who will suffer. ”
Chen Zhaoming's words, why doesn't Xia Huan know?
For a while, the atmosphere in the room was a little solemn.
Xia Huan is now the king, if the order cannot be carried out, it will not only hurt his self-esteem, but also hurt people's hearts.
Fortunately, now there are only two people, Xia Huan and Chen Zhaoming. As close friends who grew up together since childhood, if Xia Huan took back his fate, Chen Zhaoming would never confide a word.
"You go ahead and arrange it."
After a long time, Xia Huan groped his chin and instructed Chen Zhaoming.
"Whoa!"
Chen Zhaoming was no longer verbose, and turned around and walked out of the house.
Chen Zhaoming is a person who knows how to be flexible, since the pros and cons of the matter have been clearly laid out in front of Xia Huan, Xia Huan insists on this, most of them are because Xia Huan has a solution.
Even if it wasn't, as the Lord, Chen Zhaoming wouldn't say much. This is very similar to his father Chen An.
The words are only said once, whether to do or not to do, the power depends on the Lord himself.
Those who are capable will be loyal; Those who can't will never be die-hard.
