at the same time.

Liu Bei's location.

In his early days, he was by no means a person who was willing to study classics and history.

I never received any systematic instruction.

He once served as a disciple of Lu Zhi, but he only registered his name and spent most of his time making friends with heroes.

However, when he was promoted to Wenren, he suppressed the restlessness in his heart to make great achievements.

The reason is simple. Just like his ancestor Liu Bang, he found that this was different from Confucianism, but had real effects.

Food and grass are plentiful day by day, and the number of troops is increasing day by day.

As the land becomes more abundant, the people's hearts become more prosperous.

This shocked Liu Bei.

So he actually endured it and kept studying here.

And his IQ is definitely not low.

It can be said that among the generals under Cao Cao, without Cao Cao, there would be few who could defeat him.

However, he couldn't stand up to Cao Cao, and finally failed.

Later, with Fa Zheng, he successfully defeated Cao Cao in the battle of Hanzhong and achieved his first victory.

Unable to hold on and follow Liu Bang's path, the King of Hanzhong became the King of Shu.

He carefully studied Wen Rensheng's business methods.

From food and grass to commerce, from commerce to military training.

The more I learn, the more surprised I am. The more I learn, the more I feel that Wen Rensheng is profound, profound, and unfathomable.

In short, for 10 months, when his peers began to work in the Yellow Turban, make great achievements, and ask for rewards, he actually restrained his thoughts and studied a lot of knowledge seriously.

At the end of the day, the first Yellow Turban Rebellion ended.

At this time, he finally decided to seek refuge with his former friend Gongsun Zan.

At this time, Gongsun Zan was promoted to Zhonglang General and named Dutinghou because of his meritorious service in defeating Zhang Chun and other rebels.

Gongsun Zan sent a letter to Liu Bei, stating that he was the magistrate of Pingyuan County.

Liu Bei decided to go out.

He really couldn't bear it anymore.

It's pretty good to be able to endure it for ten months.

Seeing others making great achievements outside, while I just work in the mountains, although I am not wasting my years, I still feel itchy.

So he went to see Wen Rensheng and asked to leave the mountain.

Wen Rensheng would naturally not keep him.

Even Cao Cao couldn't use Liu Bei, let alone Wen Rensheng?

To be able to make the other party stay here for ten months is because Wen Rensheng is capable enough.

Moreover, Wen Rensheng specially gave Liu Bei hundreds of bottles of fine wine as military supplies, as well as thousands of stones of food and grass. There were always some people willing to follow Liu Bei.

There were about 300 people.

These 300 people are different from the soldiers Liu Bei recruited before. They are all smart and capable, and have the qualifications of lower-level officers.

Wen Rensheng saw him off before leaving and told him: "No matter where you are in the world, you must treat the people well. In the affairs of the world, the people are the most innocent. They work hard to produce and should not suffer."

Liu Bei naturally agreed.

He has never massacred a city in the first place.

This is the basis for his best reputation among the Three Kingdoms.

No matter how hypocritical they are, they have never massacred cities or destroyed other people's clans.

And Wen Rensheng let him out to disturb the situation outside and prevent the princes from staring at him early.

Although there is nothing to worry about, the difficulty still has to be lowered.

As for whether Liu Bei will become his opponent in the future?

Unless he is willing to betray his clan identity, he cannot be Wen Rensheng's opponent.

The other party has only learned a little bit, and it can be used to deal with other princes.

To deal with Wen Rensheng is to use the mantis as a chariot.

Even door-to-door delivery.

After sending Liu Bei away, Wen Rensheng continued to develop in the mountains.

At this time, the Han Dynasty still had strength, the court still had its main force, and the soldiers who had just put down the rebellion still had fighting capacity.

The main reason is that Liu Hong hasn't finished causing harm yet, but he will soon.

Liu Hong was about to die in 189, and his posthumous title was "Emperor Ling". It was also a famously evil posthumous title.

Originally, "psychic", "spiritual energy", and "Zhong Ling Yu Xiu" are all good words, but as soon as "spirit" is applied to the emperor, everyone can intuitively feel that it is not a good word.

It is probably similar to the "mourning hall", which always means "you will die early and have a good time".

Although Emperor Ling seemed absurd, he sold his official position and won titles. Although he drank poison to quench his thirst, the court still had money and food to support the main expedition.

We also know that suppressing the powerful and suppressing the aristocratic families, the disaster of imprisonment is to deal with the aristocratic families.

As soon as he was finished, Liu Bian came to power. Because Liu Xie was young and powerful ministers were in power, Dong Zhuo made a lot of troubles, and the authority of the court was gone. The main force of the court had no advantage against the princes.

There was a farce of princes attacking the imperial court.

What else is there to do?

There are still 5 years left, and by then, Wen Rensheng will be able to push directly.

As long as 50,000 elite troops are trained, it will be enough to sweep the world.

With his command, there is absolutely no problem.

So Wen Rensheng first spent money to bribe Zhao Zhong, the regular minister, and purchased several county guards near the Taihang Mountains.

Mainly Changshan County, Zhongshan County, Shangd County, Qinghe County in Jizhou area...

A total of more than 100 million was spent, and fine wine was provided with a 10% discount.

He arranged for his students to serve as county guards there.

He also bought himself a general who was in trouble and took charge of the suppression of bandits in the entire Taihang Mountains.

Liu Hong didn't care at all, as long as he didn't rebel and didn't delay his enjoyment.

At this time, he had long since lost his ambition.

Although Taihang Mountain is close to the key point of Luoyang and directly overlooks the capital, it is still indifferent.

However, people with insight have seen the potential dangers caused by Wen Rensheng.

Among them, Lu Zhi, who was dismissed from home, wrote to his friends in Beijing: "There is a teacher in Taihang today, named Taihangshanren. His talent is a hundred times better than Zhang Jiao's, and his ability is a hundred times better than Zhang Jiao's. Although his power is not obvious, he is like a hidden dragon."

In the abyss, once lifted up, it is unstoppable."

Lu Zhi just stayed at home, heard rumors and saw some things, and concluded that Wen Rensheng would be a big trouble in the future.

It can be seen that being a versatile person in civil and military matters is not just talk.

The problem is that Lu Zhi died within a few years and was going to die in 192.

Today, he is old, has no official position, and has offended the eunuchs. No one listens to his words.

Anyway, Wen Rensheng didn't rebel, he just stayed in the mountains.

There are more and more troublesome things in the court.

For example, the struggle for the throne, the struggle between eunuchs and relatives, and scholars are all internal problems. Who cares about skin diseases?

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content below! In order to quell the Yellow Turbans, Liu Hong spent a lot of money, increased his efforts in plundering, and sold his official positions more intensely.

He does understand that rich people must be from wealthy families, not poor people.

However, taxes were also increased.

Historical records indicate that during the reign of Emperor Huan, the land tax was increased once, at the rate of 10 cents per mu, and during the reign of Emperor Ling, the land tax was increased once again, at the rate of 10 cents per mu.

Therefore, the burden on farmers has also increased.

This has offended everyone from top to bottom, and it would be strange if they don't end up dead.

Fortunately, Han is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and there are still many people who think Han is orthodox.

Therefore, it will not be directly overturned within a few decades.

At this time, Wen Rensheng continued to search for refugees.
To be continued...
