A look of disapproval flashed across Yu Yue's face, and he said: "I know that Mr. Liu loves the people like his own son, and he also has the thoughts of the ancient sages and kings who wanted everyone to be equal, but in this world, this method will not work. Everyone in the world
There are high and low, and all living beings have never been equal. Even we people have to rule and manage ordinary soldiers and people. Because brother Daogui knows the art of war, and I, Yu, are also educated and knowledgeable, so they have to
under our stewardship and rule.”
"As for those prisoners of war and refugees, they are defeated enemies, or people with unknown origins, no place to stand, and no way to make a living. How can we expect them to live like us? We can take them in,
Giving them land to make a living and a mouthful of food to eat is already an act of benevolence and righteousness. They and generations of descendants have farmed for our family, so why not and what is unfair?"
Liu Daogui sighed softly: "Those of us have been educated by my elder brother for many years, but I didn't expect that Yu Gong still couldn't agree with him. It's really regrettable. My art of war and the way of using troops are not inherited from our ancestors.
My unique knowledge is what I have learned after joining the army and fighting for many years. I also learned a lot from my elder brother. If I were not given the opportunity to join the Beifu Army, I would still be just a farmer in Jingkou."
"As for Yu Gong, you have a profound family background. From the moment you were born, you not only had wealth and honor that ordinary people did not have, but also had the opportunity to receive education that ordinary people did not have. Your culture and education are only because the Yu family is far above ordinary people.
You get it from the people, and after you become an official, you have to protect the Yu family. In the past, you didn't have to join the army and fight by yourself. You could make the Yu family's nephew become an official and get a title by relying on the police. Now my eldest brother has made new rules.
, you have no choice but to do it yourself, and you have to bring your nephew with you to join in the military meritorious service. You even have to bring the villagers and tenants from your Yu family manor, and let them fight and shed blood and sacrifice, but it is to earn merit for your nephew and nephew.
Is it fair that you can oppress and enslave these people for generations?"
Yu Yue's face turned slightly red, but he still protested: "This is the way of heaven. It has been like this since the founding of the Jin Dynasty, and even hundreds of thousands of years ago. How can you say it is fair or unfair?"
Liu Daogui shook his head: "Everything that goes too far will inevitably suffer backlash. The management of the world and the establishment of a country will always be the process of a few people. A very small number of people manage and control the majority of people. Those who are like ants in your eyes can be trampled on at will.
Once people can unite and organize, they will explode with amazing power. Even if they can't win the world, they can still destroy the old order, just like the demon thieves we are facing now, isn't it like this? Those of you each
Don’t you still understand why the villagers and tenants of the big families, those who you thought had given them kindness and righteousness, are so determined to join the demon thieves and destroy high-ranking families like you?"
Yu Yue gritted his teeth and began to sweat on his head: "There are always some people who are ungrateful, and there are always some people who are never satisfied. They think they can live a good life by breaking today's order, but in the end their families are ruined and their bodies are destroyed.
The dead race has been wiped out, others have been disgusted, and oneself has been destroyed. Even if he is a demon thief, he has not changed his dynasty now."
Liu Daogui shook his head: "The Jin Dynasty, which has finally been able to stabilize itself from the barbarians' swords, cannot withstand such troubles, incitement and ingratitude. Only a small number of people, the vast majority of the people, want to live and work in peace and contentment, but
What’s more, I want to have hope and live with hope. Otherwise, year after year, day after day, the endless cycle of children and grandchildren’s life of doing nothing and doing nothing will make people unable to see hope or a future. They have a chance.
Naturally, I will resist. What my eldest brother wants is for everyone to be equal and have a chance to succeed, which is to give people hope. This is the way to long-term peace and stability."
Yu Yue sighed: "Of course I know Liu Gong's thoughts, but this is too unrealistic. The thought of our descendants suffering the same hardships as ordinary farmers is unacceptable to all the children of our aristocratic families...just like your Taoist rules.
Brother, if you go back to farming and fishing now, and let your children and grandchildren live the life you had when you were young, can you still accept it?"
Liu Daogui said calmly: "I can disband and return to my field at any time and live my old life. I have a clear conscience and am content with myself. I will come cleanly and leave innocently in this life. I will leave my name in history and leave a name for future generations."
Being admired is not as important as occupying a position, allowing future generations to enslave and rule others for generations, and to be secretly cursed and despised by people. In the end, a civil commotion occurs, and future generations are also overthrown, and are either killed or reduced to being ruled and despised by others.
Object of slavery, what good is this?"
Yu Yue's face and forehead were sweating more and more, but he still gritted his teeth: "No matter what, at least I can't let the pride of the Yu family and the future of our descendants be lost in my hands. The one who is in power now
It’s you brothers, I just have to act according to the rules you set. As for what happens next, that’s a matter for the future.”
Liu Daogui said calmly: "Going back to the original topic, did the connection and cooperation between you and Liu Tingyun start from this slave trade and become bigger and bigger?"
Yu Yue nodded: "Yes, the road for northern refugees to go south is almost cut off. Nan Yan has very strict control over the people. Not only does it not allow Han refugees to go south, it also robs and robs the people of Huaibei from time to time.
In addition, large Han families are also serving as officials and officials in Nanyan. They control the grassroots population and prevent them from moving their families or even their entire clans south like they did a few decades ago, like your Liu family, the Tan family, the Meng family,
The situation of the Wei family constantly moving south has been almost eliminated in the past ten years."
Liu Daogui nodded: "So, your manor has lost the source of these new villagers and tenants, and Brother Xile's counterinsurgency in Yuzhou and the suppression of the Di tribes in the mountains will produce new prisoners of war, slaves, and
Those homeless vagrants are then sold to your manor as slaves, and both sides get what they need."
Yu Yue said solemnly: "Yes, in addition, we have other cooperation. For example, in addition to paying taxes, the grain produced in our manor can also be sold to Liu Yi as military rations, and we can also help him build ordnance.
There are no less than 30,000 pieces of armor in the past few years. Otherwise, you would think that his Yuzhou Legion has more than 50,000 well-equipped troops, and even wants to further expand the army to seize the Central Plains.
Yuzhou can't collect much tax, so how can it do it?"
