Chapter 148: Calling Guo Jia
Regarding the bullshit that Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan did in the south behind their backs, Liu He really didn't care.
In the memory of his previous life, "black" and "hacked" have become things that countless netizens are accustomed to, from high-ranking officials and rich people to ordinary people, countless people lie down and "get shot" every day, Liu He has seen too many things that reverse right and wrong, heard too many lies that refer to deer as horses, and also learned from the history of the past and present that too many people have fallen victim to various rumors.
Although Liu He is not a master of playing with people's hearts, he understands a truth, that is, rumors are not terrible, what is terrible is the black hand who secretly manipulates rumors, and what is even more terrible is that you don't have any right to speak in the face of rumors!
Liu He now has the right to speak, although the scope is not large, but it is enough to fight back. His method can be summed up very simply, with only three steps: the first step is to make the scale of the rumors as large as possible, and use more absurd rumors to impact the existing rumors, so as to completely disturb the hearing and hearing of those who do not know the truth. The second step is to use strong positive public opinion to impact negative rumors, so that those who do not know the truth suddenly realize that they will no longer believe similar rumors. The third step is to find the source of the rumors, and expose the hateful faces of the rumors to the world, so as to form a powerful counterattack.
Liu Hui experienced ups and downs in Jizhou, from the high Jizhou governance to the hard labor in prison uniform, it can be said that he saw through many things in the world, he was the first to understand Liu He's intentions, so he reminded Liu He to do a good job after the first wave of "rumor bombing", otherwise the effect will be greatly reduced, and it can only become more and more chaotic.
Liu He announced in public that a "propaganda team" would be formed from now on, with the versatile Xu Miao serving as the captain, which coincided with Liu He's original plan to train Xu Miao to become his "propaganda minister".
The eldest prince particularly emphasized the important role of public opinion propaganda and encouraged Xu Gongzi to fully understand the importance of the position of "captain of the propaganda team" and grasp the work of guiding public opinion with creative and pioneering thinking.
Liu He also fully delegated power to Xu Miao, allowing him to recruit and select kabuki singers with learning, speaking, singing, and acting skills from all over the country according to his own selection criteria, and set up a large-scale propaganda team, which was specially responsible for promoting the new policy of benefiting the people launched by Gongzi, and shaping the great and noble images of Lord Taifu and Dagongzi worrying about the country and the people, corporal Lixian, loving soldiers and sons, being clean and self-conscious, hard and simple, and so on!
Xu Miao was fooled by Liu He like this, and his excited brain was dizzy, feeling that he had finally found the best position this time, and secretly determined to do a big job, so that the world would know how powerful he was!
After agreeing on how to counter the rumors, Liu He publicly announced the appointment of several new subordinates to Macheng.
Liu Henei designated Xian Yuyin as the general of the Dragon and Tiger Guard, and in the future, he will mainly focus on the recruitment and formation of the "Dragon and Tiger Battalion" of the new army, and become the first person among all the generals to win the title of general.
Liu He also designated Han Heng and Liu Zheng as the lieutenants of Wuhuan to work in Zhonglang, of which Han Heng also led the county order, and Liu Zheng also led the Ningcheng county order. Engaged in Zhonglang as the shogunate adjutant, generally set up two people, the rank of 600 stones, mainly responsible for participating in the military discussion, so Han Heng and Liu Zheng's status in the school captain's mansion is not lower than the "five officials".
After the last time, Liu He appointed Tai Shici as the commander of the Taifu Guards, and concurrently served as the commander of the halberd battalion of the training regiment, with the rank of military Sima first. When Tai Shi Ci first came, he hadn't made too many merits, and it was not appropriate to promote too high, so Liu He asked him to replace Zhao Yun as the commander of the Taifu Guard, which had fully expressed his intentions.
So far, the appointment of Liu He's subordinates has been preceded by "internal determination", because Liu Yu has not received a reply to the recital sent to Chang'an, and Liu He's official appointment as the captain of Wuhuan has not come down, so "internal determination" is used as an expedient method. In this era of warlord warfare, in fact, the appointment document is really not important, the key is to follow the lord and get a real position.
Liu He was not worried at all about what was wrong with his father as a hussar general, nor was he worried about how difficult it would be for him to become the captain of Wuhuan. Even if Dong Zhuo refuses to agree to this matter this time, Liu He will just wait a few more months.
Liu He remembered that this year, Dong Fatzi was about to be slaughtered by his good son Lu Bu, and then Wang Yun would have a short period of time to control the government, and with his ambition to help the Han family, he would definitely not refuse to promote Liu Yu to the position of hussar general, because Liu Yu was naturally his biggest aid in the local area. If Wang Yun wants to show the world that he is not Dong Zhuo's second, then he must vigorously support the descendants of the Han family to hold important positions in the court, and he must be sincere.
In other words, the fastest is in the near future, and the farthest is in the middle of the year, and there will be a conclusion on Liu Yu's appointment as a hussar general. And once Liu Yu has the title of hussar general, he can open a government and build a government, promote his generals in a bright and bright manner, expand his troops and buy horses, as for the appointment of his son as the captain of Wuhuan, it is just a sentence.
In terms of promoting the military rank of his generals, Liu He has always been more cautious, basically pressing at the rank of captain with troops, this time he slightly floated Xian Yuyin up one level, not only to commend his merits, but also to give a signal to his generals: Brothers, do a good job! The eldest prince is going to expand his armaments and war, and there are a lot of opportunities for promotion!
After the discussion, everyone left, and began to act according to Liu He's division of labor. Only Xu Miao, the newly appointed captain of the "Cultural Propaganda Team", was left behind by his son and brought to the study to discuss important matters.
"Jingshan, I wrote a few scripts, you help to retouch and polish them, and then find some excellent actors with superb acting skills to play in different roles, practice more, and I will be of great use after a while. In addition, I also have an idea, that is, to write a long script, specifically to tell the story of how the soldiers and civilians of Youzhou fought bravely against the Xianbei people, and send it to the wine shop and the hook bar when the time comes, so that those sharp-toothed runners can tell it to the guests. ”
Xu Miao took the stack of Caihou papers handed out by Liu He and looked at them carefully one by one. During this time, Xu Miao followed Liu Fang and learned simple block letters from Gongzi together, and his progress was very fast, and he was able to recognize all the simplified characters written by Liu He.
In fact, the simplified Chinese characters of later generations were scrutinized and worked out by a large group of experts who studied Chinese characters one by one, and there was a continuous "bloodline" with traditional Chinese characters.
Nowadays, even old guys like Liu Hui are learning Liu He's simplified characters, because Liu He said it very clearly, and he is not opposed to everyone using seal script or official script on some formal and solemn official documents, but in order to speed up the speed of writing and improve the efficiency of work, it is still mainly written in simplified characters.
This kind of eclectic approach has won everyone's support and understanding. After all, the convenience of simplified Chinese characters is obvious, and no one wants to be like the woman embroidering, who has to write a simple "one" word into a dozen strokes of "one", right?
Especially Liu Fang, as the chief secretary, because he is responsible for the records of each meeting, since he learned to write simple characters, he is very happy, because his writing speed is more than three times faster than before!
In the next step, Liu He plans to let people find a way to get a pencil or dipping pen, and at the same time try to improve the papermaking process, when the time comes, the use of hard pens and flexible white paper, text writing and recording will be more efficient and convenient.
As for the technique of letterpress printing, when he finds a suitable craftsman, Liu He will definitely not let it go.
After reading a few "little stories" written by Liu He, Xu Miao looked at Liu He with admiration and said, "Childe, I didn't expect you to be so talented in making up stories!" If we organize a performance according to these words, it will definitely achieve a sensational effect! ”
"Hehe, I'm just having itchy hands for a while, purely entertaining myself." Liu He was rarely humble, because he was really embarrassed to tell Xu Miao that these little stories were actually plagiarized by him.
Xu Miao confidently took the manuscript provided by Liu He and left, and an attempt to change the course of Chinese theater performance also set off the curtain.
The few scripts that Liu He handed over to Xu Miao were pieced together from the content of the model drama he recalled in his previous life when he had nothing to do recently, although in the previous life, as soon as people mentioned "model play", they would associate it with that chaotic era, but Liu He knew that the great power of this kind of model drama in encouraging people's hearts, if it is used well, it is even more powerful than thousands of troops!
A simple pedestal, even only needs a vacant land, and then there are three or five "actors" who memorize the lines, they can immediately go to the mountains and go to the countryside to perform, and there are many people watching the performance, this "short, flat, fast" form of performance, is really the only magic weapon to guide people's hearts and unite people's hearts.
After finishing all this, Liu He sat quietly, thinking about whether there was anything missing from the recent series of arrangements.
The training and reorganization of the troops are in full swing, the resettlement of displaced people and agricultural production have also begun, the technological innovation in weapons and ordnance has been carried out in secret, the affairs of building public opinion have also been arranged, the recruitment and appointment of qualified personnel have never stopped, and it seems that all important matters have been considered and arranged, and there is no negligence.
"That's not right! I always feel like there's something I need to do right away, but I don't think about it! Liu He frowned, secretly worried in his heart.
"What do I lack now? It seems that there is no shortage of soldiers, no shortage of food, and no shortage of generals who can lead troops to fight, as well as a few barely usable strategists...... That's right! I remembered that I lacked a top strategist, a military advisor who could stand on a high place and plan and lay out for me! Although Liu Hui is good, he is still stronger than internal affairs and weaker than strategy, let him be a military advisor, it is okay to check and fill in the gaps, and it seems that it is not enough to win a decisive victory thousands of miles away. ”
"Cao Heizi now has Xun Yu, Xun Yu, Cheng Yu, Xi Zhong, Chen Gong and a few big bulls, Yuan Shao's subordinates now have Tian Feng, Feng Ji, Xu You, Guo Tu, Xin Ping A large group of strategists, even Han Fu's subordinates have two good strategists, Dong Zhuo's subordinates also have a Li Ru, Duan Xuan has a Jia Xu by his side, it seems that Liu Da'er is forced to work hard, there is only one Jian Yong?"
"I'm better than Liu Da'er, but compared with Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, it's a big difference! Let me think about what other top strategists are there that haven't surfaced yet...... Well, Zhuge is still at the age of playing with mud, Guo Jia...... That's right! I think about it, it's Guo Jia! Cao Heizi will not requisition Guo Jia after the death of Xi Zhong in a few years, and now Guo Jia's classmates have not come to Jizhou, and they have not taken refuge in Yuan Shao for a short time! ”
"Dio! Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zhan of the dog day, actually blocked Lao Tzu, my little Jiajia, teach me how to get you to Youzhou? ”
When Liu He was hiding in the study alone, thousands of miles away in Yingchuan, the suave classmate Guo Jia suddenly shivered and sneezed a few times.
