Chapter 166: The People's Attachment

Lu Bu surrendered Liu Pi and Gong Du and went straight to Runan. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

He came from Chaohu North and spent more than 20 days on the road, and the crops were ripe and barely ready to be harvested. Although he has two places in Runan and Shouchun under his command, the population of the two large areas is not as large as the population of several small counties in Liu Biao, and without population, there is no productivity, so how can he grow too much grain.

The army crossed the mountains and mountains to escort grain and grass, and when they arrived at Runan, they were exhausted. Chen Qun waited for Lu Bu in Runan for six or seven days, worried that it would be difficult to delay Cao Cao's task. The news of Lu Bu's return to the city spread all over the city, and the whole city celebrated.

Chen Qunxing was in the city and found that many people were very supportive of Lu Bu, and their faces showed their true feelings, unlike when Lu Bu ruled Xuzhou in the past, the people were numb or numb. Chen Qun pulled a common man who was going out of the city with food to greet Lu Bujun and asked, "May I ask my husband, what is this doing?" ”

When the old farmer saw Chen Qun's clothes dressed, he hurriedly bent over and saluted: "Mr. doesn't know, the Cao thief broke the embankment and flooded Huainan, and General Lu personally went into the water to save people, what a great official." ”

Chen Qun glared at the old farmer dissatisfied, this old farmer saw that he didn't kneel down and bow when he asked, Chen Qun paid great attention to the concept of the door, and despised the peddlers and pawns in his bones, otherwise he would not be able to create a masterpiece of "Nine Products in the Positive System".

"Who spread the rumor that the prime minister broke the embankment and flooded Huainan? It's clearly a car! Chen Qun said angrily, grabbing the saber at his waist and wanting to correct this old farmer. Chen Qun scoffed at Lu Bu's deliberate practice of putting gold on his face to deceive people.

"Murder...... The children of the Shi clan are going to kill people! The old farmer shouted for help. The patrol soldiers in the city immediately surrounded Chen Qun exceptionally.

Only then did Chen Qun remember that he was in Lu Bu's sphere of influence, except for his hatred for the family, the family had no privileges here, just like ordinary people, and human life was as cheap as grass.

"Misunderstanding, a misunderstanding." Chen Qun broke out in a cold sweat, nodded and said to the patrol soldiers.

"General Lu once said, 'Everyone is equal in front of the Han Dynasty', and if you want to kill others, please apologize to this old man." A small leader pulled the old peasant to Chen Qun.

Chen Qun asked angrily, "Do you want me to apologize to this pariah?" ”

"Please pay attention to your words, sir, although you are a distinguished guest, you have violated the law, and the law will not be merciful. Do you apologize or die? The little leader asked in a cold voice, once the ordinary people turned over, their hatred for the Shi clan would be infinitely magnified by their narrow vision, and they couldn't wait to get rid of the superior families in the world.

Chen Qun struggled inwardly for a long time, and saw that this group of patrol soldiers who were eyeing him were waiting for him not to bow his head and be executed immediately. He died in Runan, he died for his backbone, he was afraid that he would not even be able to bubble up, and Cao Cao would not raise troops to avenge him, Chen Qun gritted his teeth and bowed to the old farmer and said: "In Xiayingchuan Chen Changwen, please forgive me for offending my feet." ”

When did the old peasant receive such great treatment, his simple character was not much difficult for Chen Qun, and after hearing Chen Qun's apology, he walked towards the city gate with his head held high.

Chen Qun couldn't stay in Runan for a moment, watching countless untouchables sit on an equal footing with the children of a superior family like him, he was uncomfortable, and he didn't care about any etiquette, so he went directly out of the city to intercept Lu Bu halfway.

Lu Bu is ten miles away from Runan, and hundreds of people along the way welcome him, spontaneously set up countless pergolas, and took out his family's rations to reward the army?

Lu Bu had a lot of questions in his heart, with his reputation, how could the people welcome him?

"General Lu is here! Quick look...... The one who rode the tall horse was General Lu...... "Hundreds of people enthusiastically crowded forward and blocked the way of Lu Bu's army.

"General Lu has worked hard from afar, and the old slave has prepared a little bad grain, and I ask General Lu not to dislike it." An old farmer took a bowl of black gruel and served it with both hands.

"Thank you, sir." Lu Bu got off the horse, and although he wondered what was going on, he still took the gruel and drank it all.

Lu Bu came out of the crowd, stood at the front and said loudly: "All the villagers have worked hard, and I am grateful to reward my army with the surplus grain that my family is reluctant to eat." It's just that once I eat up the villagers' rations, what will the villagers spend their days on? I can't bear it in my heart, but you have accepted your kindness. ”

"General Lu is really a good person......

"Will General Lu really use military rations to help us?"

"Will General Lu really let us read and write?"

"Will General Lu really cancel the onerous service? Is it charged at the minimum 30 tax 1? So what do your troops eat? ”

……

Countless questions sounded in the crowd, some doubts, some recognition, and the noise overshadowed the scene of thousands of troops fighting.

Lu Bu was confused and didn't know what was going on, the people were in high spirits, it was the time to buy people's hearts, how could they miss it. Raise your arm and press your arm: "Everyone, you should be quiet." ”

As soon as Lu Bu's words fell, it was suddenly unusually quiet, and the people waited quietly for Lu Bu to speak.

As a person with the memory of later generations, of course, he knew the most urgent demands and aspirations of the peasant class, and there were countless slogans that could mobilize their enthusiasm for production. ”

"Good!" All the people shouted, and the people knelt down and kowtowed one after another, supporting Lu Bu.

Looking at the people kneeling on the ground, looking forward to the system of absolute equality in Lu Bu's mouth, Lu Bu was ashamed in his heart, it was idealism, unrealistic, where there were people, there was fighting, and where there was fighting, there was inequality, and he just bought people's hearts when he said it. Looking at the countless faces full of longing and old age, Lu Bu felt the pressure on his shoulders increasing. He rarely thinks about the survival of the people, and more often than not, he thinks about helping the people after the incident happens, because he cannot protect himself.

Lu Bu secretly made up his mind that he would try his best to seek the well-being of the people of the whole world.

Lu Bu lifted the hem of his robe, knelt on the ground respectfully, and saluted three times and said: "As long as I, Lu Bu, am alive for one day, I will use my life to help the Son of Heaven and reassure the people." ”

"I'll swear to follow General Lu to the death!" The people shouted in unison, recognizing Lu Bu from the bottom of their hearts.

Chen Gong took the civil and military officials to greet him from a distance, and Lu Bu stepped forward and asked, "Can the public platform solve my doubts?" ”

"All this is the credit of Xu Mengyu. Xu Mengyu publicized the lord's action of seeking welfare for the people in Runan, and the deeds of the lord who rescued the flooded people in the first time are well-known in Runan. Chen Gong pointed at Xu Xuan and said.

"Meng Yu did a good job and deserves praise. In the future, it will be up to Mr. to govern the people's livelihood, and at the right time, I will entrust you with great responsibilities. Lu Bu said happily. There is an official who does ideological work for the people, which is exactly what Lu Bu lacks. Of course, Lu Bu hopes that someone will publicize it everywhere, and it is best to exaggerate his exploits countless times for publicity. He doesn't have the spirit of doing good deeds without leaving a name, it is better to spread his deeds of doing good deeds to the whole world, and it is better to add the good deeds he did not do to him.

"It's my job." Xu Xuan was happy when he saw Lu Buzan agreeing to his approach, and said without leaving a trace on his face. Hearing Lu Bu say twice that he was entrusted with a big task at the right time, Xu Xuan was puzzled, could he not have done enough now?

Seeing a trace of disappointment flashing on Xu Xuan's face, Lu Bu comforted and said, "Sir, wait for a few months, I will definitely entrust you with a heavy responsibility." ”

Xu Xuan is very good at figuring out other people's thoughts, and it is okay to keep him to govern a place, the most important thing is to look comfortable, as long as he does not betray, Lu Bu will dare to hand over the big task to him. The main Lu Bu's subordinates are really lacking in talents, and after winning Guanzhong and Xiliang, he can't even find a few people in such a high-ranking position as Taishou, and it will be miserable for one person to act as multiple county guards in the future.

Seeing that the people's hearts were attached, Lu Bu hurriedly opened the game system to check the people's hearts mall, and the people's hearts actually had more than 400,000 points.

"How is this popular sentiment calculated? Does a faithful people count a little a day or a few days of genius? "Lu Bu doesn't know this problem, from the activation of the mall in Pengcheng to the burning of Pengcheng, Lu Bu is basically unpopular. Since then, he has ignored the idea of the people's heart.

There are more than 400,000 people's hearts, Shouchun plus Runan has a total of 400,000 people, and most of the people have not attached to Lu Bu, so it is speculated that it should be a loyal people who count a little people's hearts a day?

Lu Bu made a preliminary calculation, and there was a burst of ecstasy in his heart. This means that he now carries with him at least 800 stones, that is, 80,000 catties of grain! Less is less, not enough for the army to have breakfast, add up to a lot, at a critical time, this food will turn the whole tide of the war, and the people's will continue to increase in the future. It will provide a lot of convenience for Lu Bu's future expedition outside the Saiwai.

"Cao Cao's envoy Chen Qun asks to see you." Just as Lu Bu was happy, a soldier halfway into the city stepped forward to report.

"What is he here for?" Lu Bu asked puzzled. Lu Bu hated Chen Qun even more than Chen Deng. Of course, Chen Qun's father and son did not pit Lu Bu like Chen Deng's father and son. Lu Bu was personally angry with Chen Deng's father and son, and Chen Qun's nine-grade Zhongzheng system led to the next hundred years, the imperial court had no mainstay, which eventually led to the Wuhu chaos that China could not resist, and Huaxia almost wanted to be wiped out. Lu Bu's hatred of Chen Qun was entirely due to the idea that the people at the bottom hated those social moths.

"The lord hasn't returned to the city yet, so he can't wait to come halfway?" Chen Gong was slightly annoyed. This is so rude, and it is a complete disgrace to the family.

"Call him." Lu Bu planned to call Chen Qun to kill him, even if he was defeated by Cao Cao in the end and let Cao Cao click away, he could not leave this scourge to delay Huaxia.

Chen Qun was invited to Lu Bu by a group of soldiers from afar, and Lu Bu looked at Chen Qun and sneered: "Okay, you Chen Changwen, the traitor is the first, and you dare to come to see me?" ”

"Lu Gong's words are wrong, the so-called good ministers choose the lord and serve, and the public suppresses the world, and the Tao is different. I don't know that the talented and virtuous people all come from the family, the Son of Heaven herds the people with the family, and the people live and work in peace and contentment under the protection of the family. Otherwise, the monarch and the ministers will be centrifuged, just like the king of the past, and the generation will be exhausted. Chen Qun was very dissatisfied with Lu Bu's style of suppressing the family, ignoring Lu Bu's killing intent and pointing at Lu Bu's unwisdom.

Lu Bu shook his head and sighed: "What a clever mouth." I remember that before your betrayal, I was eager for your family to have three pillars of incense in the morning and evening, and wanted to serve tea in the morning and dusk, so how could I suppress the family? Why make a high-sounding excuse for you to betray me? ”
