Chapter 1378: Alone in the West Building

"Go up to the west building alone without a word, the moon is like a hook ......"

In the divine capital, Liu Guang was drinking alone on a high-rise building, although he had already expected the current situation, knowing that Zhao Cheng's move would be shocking, but when the situation came to this, even if he was prepared in his heart, he still couldn't help but feel a little sad in his heart.

Maybe in a certain period of time, there will be a split between the strength of two parties, or even several parties, but once the balance is broken, life and death are in between.

And he also knows that his failure is not because of a simple weapon gap, but more importantly, people's hearts.

He has advanced cognition from modern times, and knows that in history, it is not uncommon to have a case of millet plus rifles to defeat aircraft artillery.

After all, no matter how powerful a weapon is, it is a human being who uses it.

The right time, place and people, the sum of the three elements can determine the winner or loser.

Although Zhao Cheng's weapons are more advanced and stronger, if the people's hearts are in him, with the vastness of Shenzhou, he can completely exchange space for time, and through guerrillas, Zhao Cheng's strength will be exhausted.

But the crux of the matter is that the human heart is not his.

Indeed, for thousands of years throughout the ages, the people who have represented the hearts of the people have always been the powerful families, the aristocratic class, not the real common people, the hearts of the people of the world, and the people of the world also refer to the group of people who have the right to speak.

But that's all the old thing.

If it was really a powerful family that could represent the people of the world forever, then there would be no peasant uprisings.

And it's a pity that with the erosion of the bureaucratic system now, the common people have long accumulated endless resentment in their hearts, but they can't break out.

At this time, Zhao Cheng implemented a new policy, and in contrast, those ordinary people in Zhao Cheng's territory could not have the situation of "missing their homeland".

As for those families who miss their homeland, under Zhao Cheng's order to disperse and relocate, they can't do anything, and even in some places where the trend of thought is very strong, these former heroes and strong children, if they have the slightest grievance, they will be pulled out and criticize education in front of everyone.

Liu Guangzheng knew that he was a typical, backward, and typical example of being defeated by the advanced.

But it's not that he doesn't want to implement those advanced things in his memory, but his identity after crossing over has already been decided, and many things can only be slowly figured out, otherwise it will become why His Majesty rebelled.

After all, it is not the emperor's personal charm that maintains imperial power, but the system and rules.

The emperor is only a representative of the system, and anyone who wants to change the system will face the backlash of the entire physique.

It is based on the past and the present, but those who change the law, there are very few who have a good end.

Whether it is a minister or a king.

And in this, the clever emperor will let the courtiers charge in the front, and when the merit is complete, he will kill the courtiers who change the law to appease people's hearts, and those who are not smart enough will charge forward by themselves.

"It's a pity, it's a pity, those courtiers can go up and down, but I, the emperor, can't, or even if I could, I wouldn't do that."

"After all, if it really comes to that time, if Zhao Thief wants me to die, but with a thought, I may die suddenly because of the occasional cold."

"Life and death are all in the hands of man, unless you don't have a choice, you ......"

Liu Guangzheng was half drunk, and he couldn't stop muttering.

Last week, he had had enough of the feeling of being manipulated in life and death, and in this life, no matter what, he didn't want to repeat the mistakes of the past.

At that time, he was ordinary, plain, ordinary, although he did not have the emperor's brocade clothes and food, and the monstrous power, but he was not so tired as now, in addition, there was a kind of peace of mind.

The emperor's hegemony is empty, and it is better than a drunk in the world!

The experience of two weeks has changed him a lot, but there are also things that have always remained the same.

Especially in the dream, because of the experience of two weeks, it was the transcendent tranquility of his mind after the angelica was dull.

It's a pity that this is just a dream after all, and when the sky is light, Liu Guangzheng still woke up.

After waking up, he was stunned for a long time before he went down the tall building step by step.

Although he had planned to run away for a long time, how to run and when to run away was also a technical job, not to mention, now that Dacang still has the land of Sizhou, many things still have to be dealt with by him.

……

On the other hand, although the three states have fallen, until November, the three states are still in a stage of digestion.

For Sanzhou, although Zhao Cheng accepted the surrender, but for the way Sanzhou dealt with it, it was very iron-blooded, if the government order encountered too much resistance, then it would be directly dispatched by the army to destroy the withering and decaying.

Therefore, in the replacement of officials in the three states, Zhao Cheng did not encounter too much resistance.

Even, in less than two months, a large number of officials under Zhao Cheng have already taken office and initially controlled the three states.

But compared with the initial control, the most troublesome place in the three states is the reward for meritorious deeds.

Because it was the three states that presented the letter of surrender, rather than the army directly fighting it, if it was according to the past practice, in order to show the preferential treatment of the new dynasty, the state pastors of the three states should be the official in their original positions, in addition, there is another reward.

This is done on the one hand to show the grace of the imperial court, and on the other hand, it is also to ensure the stability of the place.

However, Zhao Cheng relied on an army of three million, but he was not afraid of local instability at all, and directly replaced all the officials in the three states.

It's just that although the official has changed, he can't help but express it.

Yes, the state pastors of the three states were all sealed by him, of course, this wait, there is no fief, no real power, just a hereditary glory, and you can get a fixed merit every year.

Of course, this hereditary glory will be hereditary at any time, but it will continue to thin up with the increase of children and grandchildren, because all children and grandchildren have the same inheritance rights, and the more children there are, the lower the title inherited later, until in the end, there is no difference, and it is no different from ordinary people.

If you want to maintain your glory, there is only one way, and that is to continue to appear in future generations to serve the court and get rewards.

In addition to the state pastors of the three states, some other important figures in the three states also have their own rewards, but they are all famous but have no power.

This reward list alone is a very troublesome thing, and it seems that the court is stingy if it is less, but if it is more, it will not work.

In addition, there is also the fact that some of the officials of the old cang, rampant in the place, even if they fall, they have to be killed, if these officials are rewarded, it will undoubtedly shake the country's foundation.

This is also the reason why Zhao Cheng hesitated in the face of the surrender of Sanzhou before.
