On the side of the battlefield, Guo Jia changed his horse and passed by, and he could see blood flying from a distance, and countless soldiers fell, of course, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, the heroic posture of the world's fierce generals. Pen %Fun %Cabinet www.biquge.info// Free eBook Download //

"Fierce general? A good knife requires a good owner. ”

Guo Jia didn't care about the fate of these two people at all, or in addition to death, he couldn't think of what the ending of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei Chen would be?

No matter how fierce the generals are, even if they are the bones of the copper wall, they can't stop the arrows from firing at once.

Seeing that he was about to enter Xuzhou City, when he passed by Gao Shun and Zhang Yan, Guo Jia said lightly next to the two of them: "None of them will be left, by the way, the bodies of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei must be confirmed in person to reassure me." ”

After Gao Shun and Zhang Yan nodded heavily, Guo Jia led the army towards the city of Xuzhou, and in the center of the battlefield not far behind him, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei came at a gallop against the rain of arrows.

In front of Gao Shun, the trap camp with a car hanging array was like dozens of lines of defense, and in front of this line of defense, there were nearly a thousand crossbowmen and archers facing forward.

Just past the gate of Xuzhou City, Guo Jia vaguely heard a miserable roar behind him, made a move, and continued to move forward.

"Third brother."

Coming to the city, Xuzhou City was originally closed to the people, the streets were empty, and now it was taken over by the Taiping army, as soon as Guo Jia entered the city, Xiao Ren came to him and said in a low voice: "Lord, Liu Bei is dead, and the body has been buried." ”

A person like Liu Bei may have been carried to Guo Jia to receive the reward, but Xiao Ren understood Guo Jia's thoughts, so he did something that made Guo Jia very satisfied.

Walking slowly on the street, Guo Jia was surrounded by a large group of generals and strategists behind him, he walked to the side and said to Xiao Ren: "Liu Bei has a righteous son named Liu Feng. Kill him and leave no trace. The other heirs remained. ”

Xiao Ren understood and immediately turned around and led people away.

Guo Ye looked at Xiao Ren's hurried back and forth, came to Guo Jia's side suspiciously, and asked, "Father, what is Uncle Xiao going to do?" ”

Gently resting his hand on his son's shoulder, Guo Jia took two steps forward with him, and opened some distance from the people behind him, Guo Jia suddenly asked: "Ye'er, do you think Mi Zhu put all the wealth of the family on Liu Bei back then?" The Zhen family also pressed all their wealth on their father? ”

Guo Ye's spirit was shocked, and he replied cautiously: "Is it the investment that my father said before?" Gambling? ”

chuckling and patting him on the shoulder, Guo Jia walked forward, in the eyes of outsiders, this is just an ordinary father and son.

"Then why don't the Mi family, the Zhen family, recruit themselves? Not to be the protagonist? ”

"Because, they don't have it."

Guo Jia pinched his shoulder and smiled appreciatively.

"That's right, the political groups that left and right the temples are called the Shi clan, and it takes at least a few decades to connect unrelated officials from all over the world to form a gate valve force, such as the Yuan family. The big families who owned the land wealth in the area were called wealthy families, and such families did not necessarily need to be run for a long time like the nobles, and they could accumulate astonishing wealth in a few years, they only needed the collusion of the powerful and the powerful to oppress and exploit the people in every possible way, and gather the wealth of the majority into the hands of the few. And when most of the people don't even have room to live, then it is a sign of the coming chaos in the world. ”

"Land."

The process of changing the world from chaos to order is essentially a redistribution of resources, and the largest resource is land.

Guo Jia walked forward with Guo Ye in his arms, and said lightly: "Whether it is a scholar family or a wealthy family, whether it is a political force or a local private force, the powerful may not be able to stand out in the world's disputes. Let them rebel on their own, without guts. But he is not willing to be slaughtered and waiting for all his property to be emptied by the warlord, so he has to make a gamble to ensure that the interests of the family can be protected in and after the troubled times. Behind every tyrant who fights the country, there are always intricate forces supporting him, or direct money and food, or invisible political groups, or the hearts of the people at the lower levels. Yuan Shao, Cao Ying, Yuan Shu, Sun Quan, Liu Bei, including Wei's father and many other people, have behind them, and everyone does not represent themselves, but represents the group interests of a large number of people. Ye'er, you must understand who is behind you, and you have to make sure whose interests are always guaranteed, then you can rule firmly. ”

Guo Jia's words made Guo Ye fall into deep thought, and walked forward silently, passing by the hurried soldiers beside him, and after a long time, Guo Ye said to Guo Jia: "My Guo family started by the people, and it will continue." ”

When the bureaucratic system at the end of the Han Dynasty was completely decayed, people hated the officialdom of the corpse vegetarian meal, Guo Jia implemented the imperial examination before the real rise of the scholar clan, that is, to collect the hearts of the people in the world, this is the interest of every ordinary person, at least they have the opportunity to jump into the dragon gate, compared to Cao Wei's Jiupin Zhongzheng system to completely press the ordinary people under the pyramid, Guo Jia's support can be imagined.

There is one thing that Guo Jia has always recognized.

In the Han Dynasty, more than ninety percent of the talented people were in the hands of those noble families.

It cannot be denied that power cannot stop the popularization of knowledge.

Even if the progress in this era is slow, it is still moving towards the road of progress step by step.

In the past 20 years, what Guo Jia has done is to push and push.

It is better to teach people to fish than to teach people to fish, Guo Jia will not use gold and silver money and grain to collect the hearts of the people for a while, to consolidate the rule, the vision must be far-sighted, the imperial examination is Guo Jia's unprecedented initiative, and it is also a move to let future generations of scholars be loyal to the Guo family.

"Ye'er, but all the heroes who can stand on the stage of the world are the heroes among the people, Cao Ying, the first hero, Yuan Shao, the fourth and third princes, the protΓ©gΓ©s of the third prince, are all over the world, others don't need thirty years and fifty years, how can there be a second Yuan Benchu? Even Uncle Liu Huang in Xuzhou City also has good skills, in a certain aspect, his father is not as good as Liu Xuande, this is the truth, you have to remember. And the forces that support them are not on the table, because they themselves are not enough to stand up and command the world. Because, Cao Ying, Yuan Shao, Liu Bei, Sun Quan, etc., are all unique! To fight for the world is to eliminate the male among these people and prevent a resurgence. ”

Guo Ye frowned slightly, and when he heard Guo Jia's last sentence, he was a little confused.

Resurgence?

If Cao Ying, Liu Bei and other heroes cannot be copied, or it is difficult for ordinary people to surpass, how can this ash be rekindled?

Guo Jia still gently pressed his shoulder with his hand and walked towards the Xuzhou Mansion.

"Ye'er, as a superior, you have to do two things well, the first thing is light, and the second thing is dark. There will always be tricky things in front of you that you need to deal with properly, perhaps, it's dirty, but you have to do it. For his father, he has ordered Xiao Ren to kill Liu Bei, and among the descendants left by Liu Bei, the heirs are still young, but there is only one righteous son who has reached adulthood, his name is Liu Feng, this is a hidden danger, he may be a banner that is used by others to make waves, so his father asked Xiao Ren to solve him by the way. ”

Guo Ye instantly understood that it was indeed a one-and-done method to kill them all, but too much slaughter would leave a murderous reputation, which was not good for the Guo family, who needed prestige to reign over the world.

Guo Jia let Sun Quan die, leaving the Sun family lineage, killing Liu Bei, and leaving Liu Bei's other heirs, as long as these people are controlled in the next few decades and their resurgence is prevented, everything will be in their hands.

Sun Quan's children are all underage, but Liu Bei left behind a righteous son, Guo Jia can't let such a character live.

After fighting the country, it must be a new round of benefit distribution, Guo Jia continued to say to Guo Ye: "Behind the amazing wealth, there is always a monstrous evil. But any outsider who threatens the rule and violates our interests, Ye'er, you know how to do it, how to do it, what strategy to use, since you can make your own decisions and set up six family affairs, presumably you will be able to grasp the means and proportions of the situation. ”

Guo Ye was embarrassed, but soon became suspicious, Guo Jia told him so much today, he benefited a lot, but the more he listened, the more he felt that there seemed to be another purpose behind this conversation, and there was always a feeling in his heart that Guo Jia was entrusting the future.

"Father"

His hesitant tone made Guo Jia wave his hand to interrupt, at this time, he also arrived at the Xuzhou Mansion, Xiao Ren was already waiting outside the mansion gate, and gave Guo Jia a look before bowing his head.

"Bring Zhuge Liang here."

Guo Jia took Guo Ye into the mansion, and Zhuge Liang, who was guarded by several guards left and right, also walked in.

There was silence in the house, Guo Jia walked into the simple main hall, and while taking off his armor, he said: "Ye'er, Zhuge Kongming is a genius in the world, you must remember that after his father brought Yizhou to Yizhou, he pursued the rule of law line, and Zhuge Kongming is also a firm supporter of this line. ”

Guo Ye felt more and more that things were strange, Guo Jia had no reason to tell him so clearly about these things, and he used to let him learn more and watch more.

After a while, Zhuge Liang was sent into the hall, Guo Jia also took off his armor, turned to look at the dignified Zhuge Liang, walked over, looked up and down, and said with a smile: "Kong Ming, the old dead mountains and forests still serve the country, you choose one." ”

Zhuge Liang smiled casually, also looked Guo Jia up and down, and asked rhetorically: "There are countless capable people around the envoy, how can there be a place for him?" ”

Guo Jia stretched out his hand and pointed at Guo Ye, looked at Zhuge Liang and said, "It's not me, it's him who you want to assist." Kong Ming, you are just over thirty, how long do you think you can live? Sixty? Eighty? At least twenty years are left, are all these years wasted? Assist him, create a prosperous era, and govern this country full of holes, and you will also be able to live for a hundred years. ”

Zhuge Liang was slightly startled, looked at Guo Jia thoughtfully, and suddenly said: "Envoy, could it be Mi Fang?" Ma Chao? Gan Ning? ”

Guo Jia smiled heartily and said, "You guessed? That's good, got it? ”

Guo Jia still owes an explanation for many things, such as the killing of Mi Fang, the matter of Gan Ning, Ma Chao's fake rebellion, and the army sent to death by Yiling, etc., these things eventually led to a good result, but behind the separate things, they all pointed the finger at Guo Jia's negative impact.

Zhuge Liang stared at Guo Jia for a long time, closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

The splendid country is at your fingertips, but you don't want it!
