Chapter Forty-Nine: Fifty Thousand Soldiers and Horses Are Enough
However, during the period of the Three Kingdoms, this belief was quickly suppressed by power, and the strong soldiers and horses at that time did not stop the torrent of history, until Cao Cao coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and a real kingly thought was established from all walks of life.
Seeing that Cheng Liu didn't know what he was thinking, Tian Feng suddenly thought of something, and suddenly asked, "There are more than 10,000 refugees, why did you invite me to get into the carriage?" ”
Cheng Liu coughed a little embarrassed, and replied with a weak heart: "Look at your face is different, shocking, and refugees are very different, although the so-called body is dead, but the soul is still alive in the world, Brother Tian is standing on his shoulders, not ......"
Tian Feng waved his hand directly and interrupted: "Don't say it's funny, Tian Mou is embarrassed and unclothed, and there is no difference between those refugees who are about to die and have no place to be buried, where does the soul come from?" It was already worn out by sweat on the road. ”
Xu Shu finally couldn't help but speak: "Brother Tian's words are inspiring, Xu is not talented, and he wants to ask for a word or two." ”
Cheng Liu glanced at Xu Shu slightly, and saw that his face was full of redness, presumably because he saw such a talented person's heart......
It's no wonder that he pulled Xu Shu back to Jianye before, and he was with rough martial artists all the way, and the big truths and ambitions in his heart were all about playing the piano to the cow, and now he finally saw a person who could say a few words, of course, he was not unhappy.
"Tell me."
Perhaps seeing the light in Xu Shu's eyes, Tian Feng's tone softened a little.
Cheng Liu didn't interject, just watched quietly, being an honest melon eater.
"After the land annexation, the people are getting poorer and poorer, and the poor can line up for ten miles long streets, Luoyang City, which originally had good resources, has become like this, not to mention the prefectures and counties, so under the influence of this, why does the court ignore the political achievements, but still continue to fight with Xiqiang?"
Tian Feng replied: "The root of internal friction is nothing more than that after the eunuchs hold real power, the civil and military officials can say one or two above the court, but they are all relatives, even if the loyal ministers have this heart, but in the face of such an authoritative shroud, there is the same reason for saying or not saying and choosing life and death." ”
"Clear-eyed people know that the foreign war has not been effective, and after the land annexation and the purchase of officials, there are even fewer good officials, will the one above the temple not understand this truth? But no one can change it, and with very little national strength, there is no power to do anything. ”
After saying this, Tian Feng sighed heavily.
"It's a pity that in my Han world, the poor people want to rise up, and they have to rely on the faith that comes from the Taiping Dao, but it's not because they themselves are oppressed and bullied to make a choice, and they don't follow their own hearts to revolt, is it really for the people?"
Cheng Liu closed his eyes, there seemed to be countless wastelands uncultivated in his mind, and the Baixin people looked at these soils that couldn't even swing their hoes and wept, and the only remaining fertile soil of the landlord's house was also annexed.
War, what is war, the one above the court does not understand, and the officials and people in the lower field do not understand.
I only know that I am hungry and afraid, and I am crazy and poor, and I have to replace the sickle and hoe with a spear and a big knife!
Xu Shu was silent for a long time, and finally spoke: "According to Brother Tian's opinion, what will happen in the future in this world?" ”
"In the future, there will be frequent wars, and the army that the court can send will be wiped out by Xiqiang, what is left? However, they were all suppressed by some weak military uniforms, and the world of the Han family came to an end. ”
Being able to say this, and what he said was reasonable, Cheng Liu's opinion of Tian Feng deepened a lot.
The records of Tian Feng in the history books are mixed, but later generations praise a lot, and they can probably be collectively called genius boys.
He studied the general trend of the world so thoroughly at such a young age, which shows that he usually not only lives above the temple, but often comes into contact with the people, and knows that people's livelihood is not easy to have such complex feelings.
The carriage slowly drove to the corner, Tian Feng suddenly opened the curtain and looked out, a large number of refugees were walking behind him, and many of them had fallen on the road.
"I really don't know when the Lord of the world will appear......"
Tian Feng sighed with emotion and sat back in the carriage.
Cheng Liu ordered the people to stop the carriage, and then brought some dry food and handed it to Tian Feng.
Tian Feng didn't take it directly, but smiled: "What does this mean?" ”
"Brother Tian's self-humility is no different from that of a refugee, but what this official said before is indeed from the bottom of his heart, the Lord of the World has not yet appeared, and if it does, it will be in this carriage."
This remark was particularly bold, Tian Feng was stunned for a long time before asking: "The Han family is in decline, but this is not yet the day of change, if you say this, aren't you afraid that the final country of the Han family will come back to life?" ”
Cheng Liu directly put the dry food aside, and said seriously: "Even if it comes back to life, it has reached the point of hopelessness, Brother Tian's words just now are loud, if you are a virtuous person, you don't need to be humble, I will defend with Jianye, and the soldiers will come to Luoyang and sweep the world, wouldn't it be happy?" ”
Tian Feng stood up directly and sneered: "Even if the Han family declines, can you wait for it to be messed with?" ”
Cheng Liu nodded and said with a smile: "We can't, why can't the eunuchs and relatives who are causing trouble to the dynasty?" If we can't, then it is okay for local officials and bureaucratic landlords to annex land and use their power for personal gain? Why is this world in turmoil? Is it the government, or is it the people who are self-inflicted? ”
This series of questions directly made Tian Feng a little stunned.
The corners of his mouth snorted, and the words stopped when he reached his lips.
"Yes, you know the righteousness, but don't you understand the cause of all this cause and effect? Don't forget, you shed your official uniform because of this! ”
Tian Feng looked up in shock.
"Why do you know so well!?"
Cheng Liu was no longer the expression of a hippie smile at this time, and even the volume had increased a few points.
"I am the county guard of Danyang, and now I am sitting in Jianye, less than a hundred miles away from Luoyang, how can I not know about the things in the palace? You are prosperous and bright, but in this matter, you are blinded by decadent and backward ideas! ”
Tian Feng sat down on the ground, and his eyes, which were still shining before, suddenly dimmed.
"Tian Feng, look back at the refugees and displaced people who are staggering towards you, do you choose to be foolish and loyal, or to save the suffering people in this world from fire and water?"
Cheng Liu stood with his hands on his back, and the heroic righteousness emanating from his body even Xu Shu felt a little dazzling.
Tian Feng finally came back to his senses, raised his head in confusion, and looked at Cheng Liu.
"Does Jianye have the right to fight?"
Cheng Liu finally smiled with relief and pulled him up.
"Is 50,000 soldiers enough?"
