Chapter 123 Those who win the hearts of the people win the world

"Let's go." Zhang Chao rode out on a white crane and took Dian Wei and Xu Chu straight towards the city gate.

"It's the lord who is here." Looking at the white horse and white cloak from far and near, Guo Jia said very excitedly. And Tai Shi Ci on the side swept towards the crowd of people with a sharp gaze, and he wanted to prevent all people with other intentions from mixing in.

It's just a distance of hundreds of meters, and Zhang Chao is just a horse. As soon as they came to the front of Guo Jia and Tai Shici, the two of them clasped their fists and said, "Lord, welcome to Jinyang City!" ”

"Haha, Fengxiao and Ziyi have worked hard. All the officers and men of the First Legion have worked hard! Zhang Chao said loudly to all the sergeants in front of the city gate.

"Long live the lord! Long live the lord! He was greeted by the shouts of 10,000 soldiers in unison.

"Okay." Zhang Chao stretched out his right arm and raised it high, and suddenly all the shouts stopped at this moment, and the order was forbidden to do the same thing in a legion.

After watching Zhang Chao greet the generals, Guo Jia said: "Lord, whether to enter the city or not, the state pastoral mansion has been cleaned up and can enter at any time." ”

"Don't rush yet." Zhang Chao shook his head, and then his eyes fell on the people who were watching from afar and said, "Fengxiao, these are all the people of Jinyang City, right?" ”

"Yes, my lord. They wanted to see the demeanor of the lord. I thought this should be what the lord thought, so I didn't stop it. Guo Jia said in a tentative tone.

"Hehe, yes, Fengxiao knows my heart very well." Zhang Chao nodded with satisfaction, which also made Guo Jia breathe a sigh of relief, he knew that he had guessed the master's mind correctly this time. "Okay, now that they're here, I'll go and say hello."

As Zhang Chao spoke, he rode towards the crowd of onlookers. Dian Wei and Xu Chu on the side hurriedly followed, and Tai Shici also followed behind with a group of elite soldiers.

Zhang Chao suddenly hit the horse, causing a riot among the people who were originally watching the excitement here, and then began to retreat continuously, obviously as an ordinary person, he was still a little afraid of officials. Especially Zhang Chao has so many reckless men by his side.

Noticing that the people's footsteps were retreating, Zhang Chao deliberately slowed down, and at the same time showed a kind smile on his face and said: "People, my name is Zhang Chao, and the word is far-reaching." He is the general of Emperor Han Xian, and he is also the new pastor of the state, and he will be my home here in the future. ”

"I know that now there are wars everywhere in the world, and the annexation of states is no exception, and there are strong captives watching outside, and the lives of the people are not easy. But when I come, I will do my duty as a parent and an official to protect the land and the people, and ensure the safety of everyone's person and property. ”

"This is the first thing I, Zhang Chao, promised as the governor of the state, if your property is threatened or lost, it will be my fault." At the end of the day, Zhang Chao had dismounted and came to the people.

At this time, the closest person to Zhang Chao was a woman holding a one-year-old child. Or maybe it's because Guowei is holding the child, she originally wanted to retreat, but in the end she took a step back because of her slow movements. At this time, he became the closest person standing in front of Zhang Chao.

Looking at this woman who looked scared, but was only about twenty years old, Zhang Chao stepped forward with a smile and stretched out his hands.

Zhang Chao's actions made the woman very scared. But for some reason, after seeing the incomparably bright smile that appeared on her face, she found that she was not so afraid in her heart.

"Girl, this is your child, it's very strong, how is it? Can I give him a hug? Zhang Chao smiled and talked with the woman.

"This..."The woman was stunned by Zhang Chao's words. Women in ancient times had few opportunities to learn knowledge, and even to see the world. This makes them not know how to deal with the big scene once they encounter it.

The woman didn't answer, and Zhang Chao didn't mean to force it, but still looked at the woman with a smile and said: "Don't worry, I won't hurt your child, and I won't force you to do anything, if you don't want to, just retreat, and ensure that no one will embarrass you." ”

"This girl, I can rest assured that the child will be handed over to the general, he just wants to show his closeness." Guo Jia behind him followed, and also explained to the woman with a smile.

Guo Jia has been in Jinyang for a few months, and he usually walks around the streets, relatively speaking, there are more people who know him. Knowing that this is a very polite and knowledgeable person, such a person is often respected, and now he has made a guarantee, after the woman thought about it, she finally let go and handed the child to Zhang Chao, but he still didn't forget to say, "The child drank some water just now, and he hasn't peed yet." ”

"It doesn't matter." Zhang Chao smiled and reached out to take it and hugged it in his arms. After that, he said to the woman very modestly: "This girl, do you see me holding the child like this?" ”

"Well, it's good to raise the right arm a little bit so that the child will feel comfortable." The woman was not so frightened now, and answered.

"Okay." Zhang Chao held the one-year-old child in his arms according to the woman's words, and then slowly raised his right arm, so that the child's face rushed to his face.

I don't know why, as soon as this child was hugged by Zhang Chao, a smile appeared on his face, and then he giggled.

Originally, Zhang Chao's sudden close contact with the people made the entire city gate quiet, but now the child's laughter, the voice became extraordinarily clear, and it was even far away.

"Hehe, hehehe." The child's laughter, Zhang Chaoyi laughed, and many people laughed too, and they suddenly felt that this new state lord didn't seem to be so terrible.

Just as everyone was laughing, suddenly the child stopped laughing and changed to crying. This made the originally excellent atmosphere suddenly change, and the crowd that was still smiling stopped moving.

Zhang Chao was also very depressed, how could the good atmosphere be destroyed, so he looked at the child in his arms, and said with some crying: "Oh, I really peed, I peed." ”

As soon as I said a word, the audience immediately fell silent, especially the child's mother, who was even more frightened, she didn't know what the new state lord, the emperor's general, would do.

All the people looked at Zhang Chao.

Dian Wei and Xu Chu also had angry faces, this child actually spilled urine on the lord's body, and he deserved to die for it!

Guo Jia also looked frightened, he was afraid that Zhang Chao would be angry, in this way, the first appearance to establish an affinity with the people would be completely invalid, and even have the opposite effect.

When everyone looked at Zhang Chao, even worried, he finally spoke: "It's still a child's urine, this thing is good, it's anti-virus, hahaha." ”

Zhang Chao suddenly said such a thing, which caused everyone to be stunned at first, and after reacting, they all laughed along.

This smile, Zhang Chao is not so terrible in the eyes of the people, but as if he is a brother in the neighbor's house.

Guo Jia stood behind him, listening to Zhang Chao's words, and couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief. He knew that this time he was with the right lord, and the world in the future would definitely be dominated by Zhang Chao.

Jia Xu and Lu Su not far away also had relieved expressions, they knew that this soak of urine came in time, which completely narrowed the relationship between Zhang Chao and the people, and also made the state lord do a lot more stable.

The child's urine made the people no longer afraid of Zhang Chao, and slowly some bold people stepped forward and began to talk to him.

Zhang Chao does not exclude people approaching and chatting, but chats with whoever approaches. And the content of the chat is also very extensive. From what should be planted in the field, how the harvest should be, to the invasion of the Xiongnu and Xianbei and the destruction of the Montenegrin army, etc.

Zhang Chao tirelessly chatted with these people, and the chat lasted for half an hour, until Guo Jia came to urge. After all, Zhang Chao didn't enter the city, and the hundreds of thousands of people he brought would not be able to enter the city.

Zhang Chao was separated from the people with a reluctant look, and at the same time said that after there was anything to talk about in the state capital in the future, he would be separated from the people. But by this time, the eyes of the people who were looking at him had become much more friendly.

Re-mounted and entered through the East City Gate, followed by Guo Jia, Jia Xu, and Lu Su, three senior strategists.

"My lord, your performance is really good." Guo Jia couldn't help but admire.

Jia Xu and Lu Su also nodded in agreement.

Seeing that the three military and division-level heavyweights all agreed with his approach, Zhang Chao was also very happy and said, "Yes." The people are the foundation of the world. If you want to make them surrender, you must first know what they need, as long as you can meet their requirements, then there will be countless people who will stand up and support you, and at that time, no matter what will be much easier. ”

"That's exactly what the lord said. Those who win the hearts of the people win the world, this sentence is good. Lu Su said with a very approving and acceptable expression.

"Huh." Zhang Chao rode on the horse and smiled, this is just the words of his predecessors.

"Lord, let's go to the state lord's mansion now, Scribe Cai and the eldest lady are waiting for you there." Guo Jia proposed.

"Okay, let's go to the governor's mansion." Zhang Chao agreed, then rode his horse and rushed out.

and the state capital of the state.

It is a new mansion built by Guo Jia with a lot of manpower and material resources.

Everything is built according to what Zhang Chao said, to be brilliant, grandiose, and to make people feel shocked when they see it.

This state capital alone used 30 of the 500 carts of treasure looted at the beginning, and the cost was very staggering.
