Lu Zhi was amazed in his heart.

When Zheng Ping traveled to Zhuzhou County, he stayed in Luoyang for a long time, which made Lu Zhi quite familiar with Zheng Ping's talent and personality.

In Lu Zhi's eyes, Zheng Ping is conceited and talented.

Although he was humble and polite when he befriended people in Luoyang, he actually looked down on the virtuous and talented ministers of Luoyang many times.

What can make Zheng Ping praise is none other than Xun Yu, who was guarding the palace order at the time, and Xun You, the waiter of the Yellow Gate.

Commenting on the people, even more on the moon and dan Xu Shao.

But now, Lu Zhi heard the words of praise for Liu Bei from Zheng Ping's mouth.

Even "When there is no one who can support the Han family today, there is only Liu Fujun!" Such comments have come out.

Even if Lu Zhi has a good impression of Liu Bei, he will not praise Liu Bei as much as Zheng Ping.

If it was a different person, Lu Zhi would have to wonder if Zheng Ping was deliberately flattering.

But the person in front of him is Zheng Ping, the smartest and most practical one of the virtuous and handsome men Lu Zhi has ever seen!

At the same time, it is also one of the most conceited and arrogant people when commenting.

There are really not many virtuous and handsome men who can praise Zheng Ping with good words.

Not to mention praise!

Lu Zhi sighed lightly: "I didn't expect Xianmou's evaluation of Xuande to be so high. ”

Zheng Ping chuckled: "Uncle, this fact is louder than words, when the Yellow Turban of Bochang County is forced to land, and the Yellow Turban of Qingzhou is completely pacified, Liu Fujun will really become famous all over the world!" ”

Lu Zhi was slightly stunned: "The secret letter sent by Xuande also made the old man kill as little as possible." Conspiracy, do you know the consequences of these hundreds of thousands of yellow turbans? ”

"In the past, when Zhang Jiao was conquered, Huangfu Yizhen did not hesitate to bear the infamy and killed more than 200,000 yellow scarves, do you know what the reason is?"

Zheng Ping sneered disdainfully: "Killing more than 200,000 Yellow Turban soldiers, building a Beijing view with the heads of Yellow Turban soldiers, what reason can you come up with to defend yourself?" ”

"It's nothing more than to say that there is no food in the army, and these more than 200,000 yellow turban soldiers cannot be accommodated; Or they are worried that Emperor Ling's suspicion and the minister's framing will not let the Yellow Turban degrade and tarnish his reputation. ”

"If he sees Huangfu Song one day, the little nephew also has to ask, does he have a sense of guilt and atonement?"

Lu Zhi saw Zheng Ping belittled and despised Huangfu Song so much, he wanted to speak and stopped, and then sighed again.

No matter what the reason, this pit is still too much after all.

After a pause, Zheng Ping said again: "Uncle, the little nephew knows your worries. ”

"I am worried that hundreds of thousands of yellow turbans in Qingzhou have been surrendered, but there is not enough food to help the displaced people."

"Based on this, the little nephew and Liu Fujun have already made a plan."

"Do your best, obey the destiny of heaven!"

"Even if there is only one percent chance of success, the little nephew and Liu Fujun will try their best!"

Then.

Liu Bei said to Tian Yuxu that it was over, and he also came up.

Seeing Lu Zhi asking about the placement of these hundreds of thousands of yellow scarves, Liu Bei also smiled: "Master Lu, this matter is very important, and this is not the place to talk about it." ”

"After the forced landing of the yellow scarf in Bochang County, the student will explain it to Master Lu in detail."

Lu Zhi saw that Zheng Ping and Liu Bei were both convinced in their words, and sighed in his heart.

In all fairness, Lu Zhi also didn't want to kill all the yellow turbans in Qingzhou.

Although the Qingzhou Yellow Turban has the evil deeds of slaughtering the city, it is only part of it, not all of it!

Among the hundreds of thousands of yellow scarves, most of them are old and weak women and children, as well as good people who have been coerced.

Inviting Liu Bei to meet, Lu Zhi also wanted to really understand Liu Bei's attitude.

Long.

Lu Zhi exhaled a long breath and condensed his voice: "The meaning of Xuande, the old man has already understood." ”

"Now that the cold winter is approaching, we must solve Xu He in Bochang County as soon as possible, otherwise once it is deep winter, even if Xuande wants to help the displaced people, it will become difficult to raise and transport this grain."

Liu Bei smiled in conviction: "Master Lu, don't worry, Xu He won't be able to stay in the deep winter." In ten days at most, you can defeat Xu He! ”

Lu Zhi suddenly became curious: "Ten days is not a long time, Xuande, what are you going to do?" ”

Liu Bei exchanged glances with Zheng Ping and said, "Master Lu once had a teaching, the art of attacking war, attacking the heart is the top, and the city is the bottom. ”

"Xu He gathers Bochang and occupies a favorable position, if he wants to attack, it will not only increase losses, but also delay and affect subsequent resettlement."

"Therefore, I consulted with Xianmou, only besieged Xu He and did not attack, and set up a porridge shed outside every day to attract people to receive porridge and rice."

"At the same time, send people to mix in with the displaced people, and publicize the resettlement of the displaced people in the Plains Country, the Beihai Country and the Linzi City."

"The homeless people are willing to gather under Xu He's command because they think that if they follow Xu He, they don't have to starve to death. But with Xu He, the displaced people not only did not have enough to eat, but also had to be displaced, and were even coerced to resist the arrows and swords of the officers and soldiers. ”

"However, I can not only feed the displaced people, but also organize the displaced people to build houses and divide the land, so that they can have new expectations for next year, and I will not coerce them to die!"

"I can be urgent to meet the needs of the people, and the difficulty of saving the people, how can Xu He be compared?"

"Again."

Liu Bei talked eloquently and explained the truth in front of Lu Zhi.

Compared with the past when he recommended himself to be Gao Tang Ling and faced Chen Ji's examination school, Liu Bei has a deeper understanding of the concept of benevolent government.

Lu Zhi stroked his short hair and quietly listened to Liu Bei's explanation, and had a new understanding of this protégé who didn't like to read much in the past.

Being able to say such a truth proves that Liu Bei is often reading and reasoning on weekdays.

Although most of the details of the plan were discussed with Zheng Ping, Liu Bei also really understood and practiced these plans.

Therefore, when he made a statement to Lu Zhi, Liu Bei's eyes were convinced, and his tone was calm and powerful.

"Xuande has really grown up!" Lu Zhi secretly sighed, and he also had more confidence in King Qin's heart to beg thieves.

Lu Zhi's original intention of going south was to help Liu Bei gain a foothold in Qingzhou, and then use the power of Qingzhou to fight against Dong.

But after going south, the current situation in Qingzhou made Lu Zhi a little sad.

There are too many yellow scarves in Qingzhou!

Even if the Yellow Turban Thief is defeated, there are many things to do to deal with the aftermath.

Lu Zhi couldn't conclude whether the money and grain in Qingzhou could support King Qin's quest for Dong.

If you forcibly ask for Dong and the people can't eat, this yellow scarf will appear again.

Jiao He made a mistake and couldn't make it a second time.

And now, Lu Zhi saw confidence in Liu Bei's eyes, a strong self-confidence!

At this time, Zheng Ping spoke: "There is another matter, with the help of my uncle, Qingzhou Assassin Shi Jiaohe has died at the hands of the Yellow Turban thief. ”

"This Qingzhou needs a new history of thorns, and the existence of this new history of thorns is also closely related to the resettlement of hundreds of thousands of displaced people in Qingzhou."

"Therefore, I hope that my uncle can use your fame to jointly recommend the prince of Qingzhou for the post of Qingzhou Assassin with the county princes, state ministers, clan kings, and celebrities!"

Lu Zhiyi: "Jiao He is dead? When? ”

Zheng Ping said calmly: "Under the city of Linzi, fight and die, loyal and brave deeds, you should set an example for the counties!" Jiao He's wife and children have been properly cared for. ”

Although he didn't say it explicitly, Lu Zhi also understood the deep meaning of Zheng Ping's words.

"It's not a pity for Jiao He to die, but Xuande and Xianmou have a heart." Lu Zhi didn't dwell too much on Jiao He's matter, and paused slightly: "The joint recommendation of Xuande to temporarily replace the Qingzhou Thorn History, the old man should agree." ”

"It's just that the Qingzhou Thorn History recommended by this recommendation is always just a pseudonym, and if you want to really be this Qingzhou Thorn History, you have to have the edict of the Son of Heaven to canonize it."

Lu Zhi had something to say, and Zheng Ping saw through it at a glance: "Uncle, although Qingzhou is far away, it is not impossible to welcome the Son of Heaven in the west and King Qin Jingjing." When Qingzhou is stabilized, the prince will inevitably raise troops to march west. ”

Liu Bei also said: "Master Lu, the student will not forget that the Son of Heaven is still suffering in Chang'an, and he also knows that Master Lu has a long-cherished wish in his heart, and when the internal hidden dangers in Qingzhou are solved, the student will personally accompany Master Lu to Chang'an!" ”

Lu Zhi laughed: "Xuande has always been faithful, and if he has this promise, the old man will be at ease." This Qingzhou Thorn History, except for Xuande, who is qualified? ”

Liu Bei didn't care about Lu Zhi's little temptation.

After all, some words are too clear, but it is easy to hurt friendship.

Tentative words can also leave a step for both sides.

After joining forces with Lu Zhi.

While Liu Bei carried out the heart attack technique against the Bochang Yellow Turban, he passed the obituary of Qingzhou's assassin Shi Jiao and his death to the six counties of Qingzhou.

Kong Rong of Beihai State drafted a joint letter recommending Liu Bei as the Qingzhou Assassin and sent it to all counties, counties and townships.

With the county as the unit, the Taishou and the minister of the country took the lead, and the kings and celebrities of the county and the country jointly signed.

In less than five days, the joint letter of the six counties of Qingzhou was delivered to Linzi City.

And Liu Bei was the one who did not give in, immediately sacrificed to heaven and earth, took the post of Qingzhou Assassin History, and appointed Zheng Ping as the other driver, and the rest of the levels were appointed accordingly.

With Liu Bei's inauguration as the assassin of Qingzhou, the decrees and resettlement plans for the resettlement of displaced people in the six counties were also issued one by one.

Liu Bei adopted Zheng Ping's suggestion and temporarily implemented the order of "heavy rewards and heavy punishments" for officials at all levels in the six counties of Qingzhou.

Officials who have made meritorious contributions to the placement of displaced people can not only be promoted, but also have a large amount of money and food rewards, and they also have the opportunity to directly become the protégés of Lu Zhi, Zheng Xuan or Kong Rong.

The qualifications of protégés include but are not limited to meritorious officials themselves, brothers, nephews, close friends, etc.

Correspondingly, officials who are vegetarian and have no merit will not only be dismissed and fined a large amount of money and food, but will also be reprimanded by Lu Zhi, Zheng Xuan, and Kong Rong.

The officials who committed the crime, their brothers, nephews, and close friends will all be implicated in this, whether it is their education or career.

Liu Bei knew that the way of opening a porridge shed to help the displaced people could only be used for a while, and he still had to send these displaced people back to his hometown.

If the officials of the counties disobey and collude with the powerful people of the counties again, these displaced people will rebel again.

"Generous rewards and heavy punishments" may not be able to eradicate all corrupt officials and corrupt officials, but at least at this juncture, most officials will be cautious in their words and deeds, even if they pretend to carry out Liu Bei's decrees.

If there is someone who is not afraid of death and wants to jump out, he will definitely be killed by Liu Bei to make an example.

When Liu Bei's power was in full swing, Xu He of Bochang County was uncomfortable.

Liu Bei cut people with a soft knife, not only opened a large number of porridge sheds in Bochang County every day, but also mixed in many homeless people who had received Liu Bei's favor.

So much so that among the homeless people, there are often people who discuss privately to follow Liu Bei.

Such as:

"Dude, why are you still here? Liu Yuanjun has already ordered us to return to our hometowns, as long as we go back, we will have money and food. ”

"I didn't believe it at first, but the second dog next door came to me yesterday and said that Liu Yuanjun gave him twenty acres of land and several bags of grain."

"There are a lot of grain merchants in Qingzhou, all of whom sell grain to Liu Zhijun, and Liu Zhijun has been buying grain from neighboring states and counties."

"Liu Yuanjun said that he would call us to reclaim wasteland and exempt us from paying taxes for three years! Who would want to run around when they can stay at home? ”

"Winter is coming, and the house at home can at least be sheltered from the wind and rain, which is better than sleeping in the suburbs, either starving to death or freezing to death, and if you are unlucky, you have to be taken away by tigers and leopards."

"Don't believe me? Anyway, I believe it, I still have children to raise, and I will believe whoever gives me food. ”

“.”

In less than ten days, most of the displaced people gathered around Xu He had run away!

Even Xu He's personal guards ran a lot.

Few people are really stupid!

Compared with Jiao He, who ignored the homeless people in the past, Liu Bei, the assassin of Qingzhou, really took out money and grain to help!

Although the homeless people don't know how Liu Bei got so much money and food, as long as they see the money and food and really put it in their arms, the homeless people will believe Liu Bei!

"Liu Bei, a dog thief, is not afraid of eating!"

Knowing Liu Bei's trick, Xu He was angry in his heart.

The reason why the displaced people can be gathered is because Xu He can give the displaced people a chance not to starve to death.

As a result, Liu Bei's methods were more clever than Xu He's!

Isn't it just gathering displaced people?

Compared with money and food, more than fame, more than benevolence, more than means, and more than long-term, Xu He was comprehensively crushed!

Xu He can only keep the displaced people from starving to death, but he can't give the displaced people a future.

And Liu Bei can not only keep the homeless people from starving to death, but also give the homeless people a future where they can be fed and clothed!

"Second brother, Mr. said, almost all of the people who followed Xu He after ten days were murderous people who wanted to get something for nothing."

"Just kill, don't keep prisoners!"

Outside Ren's manor, an elite state soldier quietly gathered.

Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Tai Shici, and Tian Yu were four generals, each riding their horses.

Most of the displaced people who gathered around Xu He left.

The rest are almost all Xu He's cronies.

These thieves have received too much favor from Xu He and are also accustomed to plundering.

It's almost impossible to get them to go back to farming honestly.

Neither Zheng Ping nor Liu Bei had the idea of rehearsing this group of murderous thugs into an army.

Although the practice of the murderous army will become very strong.

But at the same time, the military discipline of these people is also difficult to restrict.

If you don't pay attention to it, you may ruin the name of benevolence that Liu Bei has painstakingly created.

Qingzhou has its own good family, so why use bandits to form an army!

Liu Bei and Zheng Ping discussed, selected the most elite soldiers, and prepared to carry out the final thunderous blow against the Yellow Turban thieves in this manor!

Guan Yu carried the Glaive Knife, and Danfeng's eyes opened slightly: "According to Mr.'s plan, in the four directions of southeast, northwest, and northwest, there are four of us and five hundred cavalry per person." ”

"Whoever can meet Xu He will be credited!"

Zhang Fei laughed: "Then I'm not welcome, in terms of commanding the cavalry, who can compare to me!" ”
