Mountains and rivers community map, Lumen Mountain.

After failing to find the "correct way to govern the world" for several years, Zhao Yun had to try to summarize it himself.

It is true that at present, the slightly powerful people everywhere are carrying out their own ideas of governing the world, and at a rough glance, they are also decent, but each has its own flaws.

The first thing to exclude is the assassin history surnamed Liu in various states and those who obey Luoyang and the imperial court, all of them have the mentality of "if you have the opportunity, you will take another step, and if you can't do it, you will maintain the status quo", even if any of them are lucky enough to ascend the throne, it is meaningless to the Han who is about to fall on the tree.

The second is Dong Zhuo, just looking at his troops in Chang'an, he knows that he doesn't take the emperor seriously at all, if he finally controls Luoyang, the best result is also his regency of Duke Zhou, but fortunately he is not surnamed Liu, he can't really usurp the throne, at least the emperor will be safe and sound.

As for Liu Bei and Cao Cao, who Zhao Yun had deliberately gone to ask them about their strategy for governing the world, they also exposed their own problems after having their own territory.

Liu Bei's philosophy of "both love and non-aggression" of the Mohists, the style of "everything you do is for the good of the people", and the almost hand-in-hand planning of the people's lives and future, may work in Youzhou, where living conditions are difficult, and it may also work in the bitter cold outside the Saiwai and the hot and humid south, but it will not be accepted in the rich Central Plains - who would want others to guide them on how to spend money and enjoy it?

A simple example is that in Guangyang County, where he took in refugees, 30 percent of the people who had migrated still chose to leave – although the grumpy Zhang Fei and the eccentric Zhang He may have to bear some responsibility.

As for Cao Cao, he implemented the policy of the Legalists, this law was implemented in the Qin Dynasty, but because in addition to the law enforcers do not understand the law, unintentionally violated the law immediately without giving a chance to punish, leaving people with the impression of "Qin law is strict", in order to avoid repeating the mistakes of the past, Cao Cao deliberately sent many light horsemen in the place where the law was promoted to explain the details and scope of application of the law to the people in detail, at present, his "Green Seedling Law" is popularized quite well, but the problem is in the foreseeable future.

The idea of Legalism is to use various laws and regulations to restrain and guide the behavior of the people, and Cao Cao will inevitably issue more and more detailed legal provisions in the future, but there are not many literate people, and even fewer people are willing to listen to and understand laws that are not very relevant to them.

As for Sun Jian, he does not seem to have the intention and idea of dominating one side or even seizing the world, and was instructed by Zhu Jun to make the group turn, even if he fought with the escort team of the old lady Cao and was defeated, but after gathering his subordinates, he still decided to go to King Qin of Luoyang as originally planned.

Zhao Yun still had some questions about the details of this encounter, such as how Sun Jian and his subordinates escaped when all the Qinwang troops involved in the encounter were captured by the tiger and leopard cavalry.

Oh, no matter what, there are masters and Luo Shen in Luoyang, see what they can do.

In the end, Zhao Yun's eyes fell on Julu, the "Taiping Dao" who had already shrunk his power to the extreme—of course, it didn't mean to support them to rise up, so that not only would Master Zhang Jiao and Master Tong Yuan fight again, but maybe the "Lin Hao Fairy" who had been fascinated by his whereabouts recently would also stop it.

Speaking of which, it seems that because the rumors of "Jiang Zuo Meilin" being killed by the "Sword Saint" are a little distorted, the fairy who originally used the names "Jiang Zuo Meilin" and "Nanhua Lin Hao" simply gave up the former.

In the few chance encounters with the "Nanhua Fairy" in the Shanhe Society Map, Zhao Yun saw that she was recycling the petals that were scattered all over the "Map", and muttered "Kongtong Seal", "Kunlun Mirror", "Demon Refining Pot" or something.

It's probably a lost treasure.

Speaking of the Taiping Dao, it has been completely separated from the Taiping Army, which was originally just a flash in the pan, only the one that joined Dong Zhuo's army still exists, and they are still attracting Taoists who are unwilling to go to Julu to live a stable life.

At this time, under the leadership of the little junior sister, the Taiping Dao of the giant deer is like a hedgehog that gathers itself, and outsiders will not touch them if they do not have the consciousness of losing both.

However, beneath this appearance, the various commanders still had ties to the old departments of the prefectures and counties, and secretly continued to sell the runes at a fair price when the officials thought they had mastered the channels and wantonly raised the prices, mainly disguised as traveling merchants, horse dealers, and restaurant owners—no one would suspect the old paintings, the forage for horses, and the wine in the jars of the restaurants.

Although they themselves don't know why they do these things that have no impact on the imperial court, maybe it's just because they are depressed in their hearts?

However, this approach inspired Zhao Yun.

The establishment of an independent, huge, and objectively impossible to cooperate with the rulers to monitor and punish the court is called the "Ranger Guild".

Although it sounds very similar to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's embroidered emissary, the "organization" planned by Zhao Yun will be supported by the vast majority of the people, so that when it punishes certain officials, no one will jump out and say that it is a rebellion.

As for the manpower and members, Tai Ping Tao was only a last resort when it was first established, and once it grows, it can be selected from those rangers who are passionate about helping others, willing to uphold justice, and acting for the country and the people.

Although the definition of the word "justice" varies from person to person, it is generally sufficient to adopt justice in the broad sense that is accepted by the vast majority of the people.

In the circumstances he expected, a move similar to Wang Mang's usurpation of the Han Dynasty would never have succeeded.

Thinking about it now, Fairy Lin Hao deliberately taught Master Zhang Jiao the three volumes of the Book of Heaven, instead of giving it to those two immortals who just wanted to find a Ming Jun, it was like inadvertently paving the way for himself in advance.

However, there is one of the biggest obstacles to this plan - Dong Zhuo, the assassin of Liangzhou, who seems to be inspired by "Diao Chan", is also forming his own secret guard, and intends to become the commander of all the rangers in the world, which is in direct conflict with Zhao Yun's plan.

Compared with him, Zhao Yun's own connections are pitiful, and because he has been active in the mountains and rivers to set up a social map, his reputation is not loud enough, and when he goes out and shouts "I am Changshan Zhao Zilong", it is estimated that no one will know him.

However, he is far superior to Dong Zhuo at least in terms of force value, although Lu Bu is not sure how strong he is, but I heard that his head is not very good......

In addition, Dong Zhuo was born in Xiliang and has no foundation in the Central Plains, even if he develops his power, he has to start from scratch, such as manpower, venues and other problems that cannot be solved by relying on fame.

Speaking of venues, it seems that the various strongholds in the map of the Mountains and Rivers Society can be borrowed, they are connected to the "other room", with the help of Master Zhang Jiao, and can be used to quickly deliver news, but ordinary people can't rush through it, and those who enter and exit are all "in the present world".

Wait a minute? The fairy herself can move around at will in the blueprints of mountains and rivers, and she doesn't bother to make cracks by herself when she enters the world, so why did she deliberately make those strongholds as entrances and exits?

In order to...... This Ranger organization that still exists only in ideas?

It feels like the road is a little farther paved......

――――

Zhao Yun retracted his thoughts and knocked on the door of the Pound Mansion in Lumen Mountain

The Lumen Mountain stronghold is the most special one in the entire Shanhe Shejitu, not only because it covers the largest area, but also because his position has never changed in the constant "fluttering" of the Shanhe Shejitu itself.

In Zhao Yun's plan, this stronghold was the "general meeting" of the "Ranger Guild", but a problem arose here - the stronghold itself was discovered by the famous hermit and sage Pang Degong, and converted into a place for teaching and educating people.

If you want to borrow it, you must get the consent of the owner of the place.

Well, just like the stronghold where Master Tong Yuan and Master Zhang Jiao lived was called the "Martial Scholars' Pavilion", there should also be a nice name here, judging from its current function, it may be called "Scholar's Pavilion?" ”

"Squeak—"

The courtyard door opened, and a slightly thin man, wearing a brown scholar's robe, with a scarf wrapped around his head, appeared in front of Zhao Yun with a roll of bamboo slips, and said with an attitude that he didn't know how many times he had repeated, and said slightly numbly: "Mr. won't go out of the mountain, and I don't know where 'Jiangzuo Meilin' went after leaving." ”

Ah, speaking of which, there have been rumors of "Jiangzuo Merlin reappearing" since a year ago, is the original source here?

"I don't want to ask Pang Degong to go out of the mountain, and I don't want to ask Mei Lin's whereabouts," Zhao Yun said: "I just want to ask Pang Degong if I have a question." ”

"Then you can go to the school house and stay there, and ask him when he lectures, and if you have any questions other than the content of the lecture, I can tell you when my husband is free." The scholar replied without hesitation, apparently this question came up more often.

"No, that question can only be asked face-to-face," Zhao Yun thought about it, but still didn't let the scholar tell him, after all, in this case, if he asked a question like "Can I ask you to give up this pavilion stronghold", it would be a bit provocative: "Please tell the commander that Changshan Zhao Yun has important matters to discuss, whether he is willing to meet." Next time I come, I hope to get an answer. ”

"Okay, okay...... Wait a minute? The scholar was originally responding to the harmony, but he was suddenly stunned, opened the bamboo slip in his hand, glanced at it twice, and then read: "Changshan Zhao Yun Zhao Zilong? Do you have an older brother named Zhao Feng? The masters are 'Sharpshooter' Tong Yuan and 'Great Sage and Mentor' Zhang Jiao? ”

“…… Precisely. Zhao Yun was slightly stunned, the feeling of "someone has already paved the way for himself in front" appeared again, next, he wouldn't even be able to guess his intentions, right?

"'Ranger Guild', huh?" The scholar read, "If you don't come again, Sir will have to draw up a new cooperation document." ”

"......" Zhao Yun had nothing to say.
