The current Guan Yu has a great advantage over other princes, what is the advantage? That is, he can use the Son of Heaven to order the princes, speak in the name of the Son of Heaven, and make himself famous, which is equivalent to Cao Cao in history coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, but he will not force Emperor Xian to do things, of course, Emperor Xian is also young and cannot be a director, but Guan Yu knows that this form is only a few years, as long as Emperor Xian is a few years older, he will no longer obey his orders, and at that time there will inevitably be friction between himself and Emperor Xian, so he must make good use of this rare opportunity to exert force, Trying to seize this favorable opportunity to unite a part of the so-called "loyal ministers", and Ma Teng is such a successful example, and he will continue to win a large number of people to strengthen himself in the future.

Xiliang returned to Guan Yu's hands in this way, Ma Teng handed over all the cities of Xiliang, the vast land of Xiliang once again avoided the war, Guan Yu and the generals rode horses to visit the various cities of Xiliang, this belongs to his research on Xiliang, he wants to personally understand the current situation of Xiliang, this place where soldiers must fight, full of war, galloping on this vast desert, Guan Yu is full of emotion, seeing the vicissitudes of Xiliang, he can't help but think of the sentence: Xing! The people are bitter! Lose! The people are bitter! This sentence is really classic, war, especially endless wars, bring more displacement to the people, Guan Yu witnessed this scene with his own eyes, it is really shocking! People with unkempt hair in tatters came into his eyes, including men, women, old and young, who had already entered the winter, and many people who were unclothed, and such tragic scenes abounded.

Seeing these Guan Yu's heart is really tangled, he was once a poor man, and his family was also shabby and ruthless, and he also lived a hard life when he was young, during that time. He is also weathered, eating and sleeping in the open, his family is poor, but he can barely survive, and he is relatively happy compared to these displaced people, it can be said that one of the direct reasons for these people is the war, and the endless conquest makes the people miserable! Born as a soldier. With a body of force, he has always wanted to make achievements in martial arts, but when he saw this, Guan Yu's heart was very uncomfortable, his ideals were ambitious, ambitious, and he wanted to dominate the world, so he could only choose war, but what did war bring to the people? More often than not, families are ruined. Guan Yu is a cloth cloth and understands what happened to the lower-class corporals, what is the war for? Do you want the people to suffer for the sake of your own lofty ideals? Do you want to base your ideals on the suffering of others? This reminded him of the former Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, who advocated martial arts, but the continuous wars made the national strength of the Han Dynasty consume a huge amount, and the people were miserable; Reminiscent of Zhuge Liang's six expeditions to Qishan to conquer Wei in this era, the originally weak Shu State finally couldn't afford to be destroyed by the powerful Wei State for many years, which is a painful lesson! But think about it another way. In these troubled times, if there is no conquest, can the people really live and work in peace and contentment? This is an era of competition between the heroes, but also an era of killing and merging. It is also an era of the jungle, even if you don't fight others, it is difficult to find peace, because an ambitious person will not let you have peace, he will ponder to eat you, start a war against you, and when people beat you, you can't be passively beaten and wait for aggression. The purpose of war is to avoid war is the way of life in this era, so it is necessary to fight, this is a necessary choice, only war can achieve great governance, in order to end this endless killing. Thinking of this, Guan Yu fell into deep thought

Guan Yu and the generals rode horses on the land of Xiliang, mixed feelings, how to make decisions wisely is an important issue on him, as a decision-maker, every decision is not only related to his own destiny but also to the future of his subordinates, but also to the well-being of the people, this is his confusion as a person in power, once as a simple military commander, his decision-making can be very simple, the starting point is nothing more than to consider the victory or defeat of the war, no need to care about anything else, and now it is different, as a leader, He is not only a simple consideration of military affairs, but also to ask about government affairs, as the ruler of power, but also to ask about government affairs, that is not good, not only to ask about the current urgent task of government affairs, but also to ask about the economy, if the economy does not directly affect government affairs, government paralysis directly restricts military construction, these are all interrelated, understand this point to make great efforts, the current situation is generally good, this time to take Xiliang, the entire west and Sanfu into a piece, and then with the entire Central Plains, Such a territory laid a solid foundation for Guan Yu to compete for hegemony in the future, solved the temporary internal and external troubles, and calmed the situation, Guan Yu decided to focus on the next step of the work on recuperation, he decided to let the people of Li under his rule recuperate for a year, that is to say, exempt from various taxes within a year, let the people develop production, this is what he pondered before the expedition to Xiliang, and the current reality made him firm in this decision, but such a decision must be placed on the premise that others dare not attack themselves, In other words, without a large-scale invasion of foreign enemies, Guan Yu will not choose to take the initiative to recruit others.

In today's world, he has undoubtedly become the strongest divider, even Yuan Shao's strength in Hebei is not as good as his own, and the strength of Cao Cao, who is entrenched in Yanzhou, is far inferior, he won a step at the starting point, and there is no opponent who can match Guan Yu in the whole world, so if Guan Yu does not take the initiative to attack others, whoever attacks Guan Yu He still has to think about it, not to mention that he still has a trump card in his hand, that is, "take the Son of Heaven to order the princes" Judging from this point, there will be no war within a year, this is Guan Yu's judgment based on the current situation, and now he has risen This point has become clearer and clearer, 32 years old dominates such a large area of land, this can be said to be the best among the princes, if it is called a modern age, he is just a lieutenant colonel, this has to be mixed well, maybe he can have a chance to become a colonel, that's all, compared to now, it is simply a world of difference, Although this era is not as developed as modern and not as prosperous as modern times, Guan Yu has found another element in this era, what? That is the glory and pride of a soldier, and the respect and status that cannot be obtained in modern times, and of course, power and women, as a man he has what he cannot get in modern times, and there used to be a good saying that "life is a masterpiece." Death is also a ghost", once this sentence was just a legend imprinted in his mind, an unattainable dream, but in this era he seems to have found the true meaning of this sentence, he used practice to prove that this sentence is really a truth and exists, in this era he found another element in life. This may be something that exists in the depths of his heart, something that used to be a dream, and it exploded all of a sudden, and it was a strong explosion in this era

The current Guan Yu is a leader, not just a leader in the ordinary sense, what is the concept of a leader? That's the king under one person and above ten thousand! What's more, there is no one above Guan Yu who can restrain him, more of him restrains others, it can be said that now he is covering the sky with one hand, calling for wind and rain, every word he says and everything he does is of great significance, and he was just a leader in the army. He has absolute authority in the army, and he is one thing to say! Of course, it also has high prestige, and in the eyes of the soldiers, Guan Yu is a "god"! Guan Yu's wisdom and strategy, Guan Yu's military quality, and Guan Yu's military style, have made the officers and soldiers in the army admire, which is precisely in Luoyang, even if Guan Yu was overhead, he can still quickly win the heart of the army and recall the soldiers, so many years Guan Yu not only won the war but also won the heart of the army, which is also his greatest achievement!

Occupied the chassis and won the hearts and minds of the military. Guan Yu's next decision was to shift his focus to government affairs and the economy, and he wanted to make the land under his command rich and vibrant. This may give some princes a chance to breathe, or delay the time to dominate the world, but this short period of recuperation will also have miracles, and may have unexpected effects, which will not be achieved by war, and now he is focusing on the hearts of the people. He wants to win the hearts of the people, this is a top priority, once he followed Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo's character is so bad, and as his subordinate. It is inevitable that he will make people have a rhetoric, although he is clean and self-conscious, this time Guan Yu wants to completely clean these up, he wants to be fully recognized by the Li people under his rule, not just the upper class, this time he wants to compete for the people of Li under his rule and get their support.

As the saying goes, "Whoever wins the hearts of the people wins the world!" "The Three Kingdoms were Cao Cao who occupied the time, and Sun Quan occupied the geographical advantage, and Liu Bei occupied the people, this is the so-called "three-legged tripod", people are equally important, and now Guan Yu can be said to occupy the time, he debuted earlier, and the success was also relatively early, this is the so-called time of the day, that is to say, the current Guan Yu has an advantage compared to other princes, and if he takes the lead in the "people" in the next step, then it can be said that he has succeeded half, and the significance is no less than winning the entire Sanfu, People's hearts are the distinctive characteristics of this era, and with the support of the people, he Guan Yu's future conquest will no longer be a lonely battle, this is of great significance, and Guan Yu will take a lot of detours if he knows this, which may be the wisdom of his modern man.

As a modern person who has come over, Guan Yu has advantages that others can't match, what advantages? That is the unpredictable prophet, especially for the people and things of this era, he is very familiar with it, because of this, he can seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, just take the people he accepts, either loyal and brave generals or loyal and resourceful strategists, that is to say, these people have a common characteristic, that is, loyalty, this is the first principle of Guan Yu's selection of talents, talent is the second, it is precisely because of the acceptance of more loyal people, in order to take a lot of detours in the future war, to avoid being betrayed by his own men, his camp is also relatively united, In this way, he has a strong advantage in terms of talents, and everything is going according to the plan, and in the next step, Guan Yu will continue to improve various systems and mechanisms to make his troops more combative.

Guan Yu rode a horse in Jincheng, Zhangye, Jiuquan and other places in Xiliang to conduct research, so many years of conquest has made this once prosperous Silk Road scenery is gone, trade is deserted, people are slightly rare, Guan Yu visited the market here, everything is not as good as imagined, it seems that it is time to rectify, Guan Yu secretly determined that after a year of efforts to rejuvenate here, prosperous again, so that the Silk Road reappeared, Guan Yu's short research ended in a hurry but harvested a lotHe has first-hand information, which provides a reliable reference for future decision-making. When he came back to Liangzhou, Guan Yu was full of emotion, ten years ago he trained the army on this Xiliang point general's platform, at that time he was so young, so bloody, so looking forward to the future, ten years later, when he set foot on the familiar land of Xiliang again. He is already the leader of the ten thousand armies, the hairy boy who used to be suddenly became the commander of the armies, the past is not as good as smoke, everything is vivid, Guan Yu is from here out of a bumpy and rugged road to Luoyang.

After ten years of experience, Guan Yu not only gained his own power and status, but also experienced courage and mind, of course, he is more confident, and now he also likes the words of the great man even more: there is nothing difficult in the world, as long as you are willing to climb, from the blood and fire all the way to the difficulties and challenges under your feet, just in response to the great man's words: no matter the wind and waves, it is better to take a leisurely stroll! That's true. Whether it is a real duel or a secret power struggle, it is full of blood and violence at all times, but Guan Yu copes with it calmly and walks frankly

Guan Yu began to consider the defense of Xiliang after a short period of research in Xiliang, such a large area of land must be left to guard by special personnel, the people left behind must not only understand the defense, but also strive to expand the decadent trade here and strive to develop the economy, to revitalize Xiliang, there is an urgent need for capable ministers and capable cadres to govern, that is to say, there is an urgent need for talents to lead the affairs here. Although the Xiliang Heavy Land is remote, the mission and tasks shouldered by it are not trivial, and the future Xiliang will shoulder the heavy responsibility of providing sharp weapons and war horses for the entire army. That is to say, the equipment of the army must be provided by Xiliang, and at the same time, Xiliang is also responsible for the revival of Silk Road trade, and many things in the Western Regions have to pass through here to transfer to the Central Plains; In addition, Xiliang also shoulders another important mission, that is, to provide Guan Yu's army with high-quality reserve strength, that is to say, the source of soldiers, Xiliang's source of soldiers is quite strong, brave and loyal, especially the cavalry is brave in the world.

As the ruler of the government here, we must strive to do three things well: First, do a good job in defense. The defense of Xiliang is very urgent, it has always been a place for soldiers to fight, the west borders with the Qiang people, the northwest borders with the various ethnic groups in the Western Regions, the north is the Xiongnu, the northeast is Xianbei, because the adjacent are a small number of nomads, the defense here should not be underestimated, if the defense is not good, there is no good and stable social environment, how to talk about development? Therefore, a capable general should be filmed to guard Xiliang, supervise the defense here, and escort the development of the economy; The second thing in Xiliang is the economic development of Xiliang. This is the key to the revitalization of Xiliang, how can we talk about economic development? To develop the economy, it is necessary to revitalize the commerce and trade here, especially to restart the Silk Road, to build the Hexi Corridor This is a top priority, only the economy goes up, trade can prosper, the Silk Road can be restarted, bilateral trade can be active, the business of iron and horses can be active, in order to pave the way for the development of the army's equipment, to revitalize these need a governance expert, that is to say, an economic acumen is urgently needed; The third thing in Xiliang is the development of the population, to make this place reproduce the glory of the past, the population to reproduce, is the top priority, to provide a reliable source of soldiers for the future must let the population here be multiplied, which also requires a civilian competent;

If these three things of Xiliang are done, then it will provide important resources for Guan Yu's future hegemony, Xiliang is equivalent to Guan Yu's back gate, only here to achieve prosperity and stability he has no worries, of course, Guan Yu is also determined to build Xiliang into his own rear base, Tiangang is impermanent, fate is difficult, people do not always have smooth sailing, if they really encounter ups and downs and misfortunes in the future, and suffer a fiasco, then Xiliang can become their most difficult place to live, as long as there is a way to retreat, they will not worry about the comeback, And his future retreat is this Xiliang, once he started here, he has been here many times and is familiar with this place, this place is suitable for his development, based on this kind of consideration, Guan Yu needs to leave some elite soldiers to govern here

Guan Yu has been brewing in Liangzhou for a long time, experienced a few sleepless nights, although this is a simple employment, but in view of the importance of Xiliang, the people used must not be taken lightly, let alone hasty decisions, "come up with ideas, use cadres" This is the most basic quality of a leader, but for decision-makers, the appointment of people is not a trivial matter, especially the appointment of leading cadres is a major event related to the fate of a place, Guan Yu has always attached importance to the appointment of generals, Before he has been serving as a military commander, he is very good at the appointment of army generals, meritocracy, this is his principle of employing people, as long as you are talented, as long as you can be competent, Guan Yu will be vigorously promoted, of course, the most important thing is the word loyalty, on the basis of loyalty, pay attention to the selection of outstanding talents, and promote them to leadership positions, this is his concept of employment as a military commander.
