The wine is good, clear and transparent, and comes in different grades.
Some drank mild liquor, others drank strong liquor.
Among them are Guan Yu, Jian Yong and others.
"We are only cultivating and making a living in the valley, but the Yellow Turbans are raging outside. When I think about the suffering of the people, I feel ashamed. If a man can't make achievements and appease the people, how can he be a man?" Jian Yong sighed after drinking for three times.
"The Captain Dian Nong has unexpected strategies and cares about the people. He is really a strange person in the world. He can collect refugees and bandits and place them in the mountains. This is also to appease the people." Liu Bei said.
"Having said that, Brother Liu, it would be a waste of time for us to sit in the mountains in our prime years." Jian Yong said again.
"Where is the idle sitting? Every day, I patrol the villages, open fields to feed the people, and help the common people. This is also a major event." Liu Bei said in admiration.
"Well, it seems that Brother Liu plans to spend his remaining days in this mountain? You are a member of the Han Dynasty, don't you want to help protect the Han Dynasty, make contributions, and be granted the title of Marquis and Prime Minister?" Jian Yong asked.
"I believe that Captain Diannong is just dormant at this time. I see that he is saving food and training his soldiers every day, just waiting for the right time." Liu Bei affirmed.
His vision is still much higher than that of ordinary rangers.
But the specific details were lacking, and it never took root.
So with Zhuge Liang, we can take root.
But the specific battle does not depend on Zhuge Liang.
"What my brother said is absolutely true. I see that they have built strongholds and outposts in dangerous places. A hundred soldiers can resist thousands of people for four to five days. Even if a hundred thousand people come to attack, they will not be able to fight because of the food and grass.
He had to retreat due to the epidemic." Guan Yu also admired him.
He pitied his subordinates but was proud of his superiors, and only admired extremely powerful people.
Jian Yong shook his head and said: "Since the two brothers have also seen this, they should know that our captain has probably already had the intention of separatism and rebellion."
Liu Bei fell silent and Guan Yu remained silent.
The two of them naturally understood.
But at this time, they only had an official position because of promotion.
At this time, Liu Bei had been promoted to Qu Chang, and Guan Yu was also the Qu Chang, commanding a total of thousands of people.
However, they cannot take away many of these people.
Because there is one system responsible for battlefield command, another system responsible for daily military training, another system responsible for logistics, and another system for mastering military law and promotion rewards.
In addition, there is the Fubing Cao, who is responsible for calming morale, collecting soldiers' movements, and monitoring the movements of chief officers. He rotates in each battalion every six months.
This is a completely different military system from other Han armies.
In the Taiping years, someone must have informed Wen Rensheng that he had evil intentions and was plotting rebellion.
But now?
The one who is obviously plotting rebellion is outside...
Conquer prefectures and counties, kill officials, rob the powerful, and threaten the people...
Moreover, according to real history, Zhang Yan continued to cause rebellion after the Yellow Turban, and the imperial court was unable to suppress it. Later, he asked for submission to the Han Dynasty, and he was able to win the high-ranking official of the Lang General who was in trouble.
You must know that this time point was before 190. From 184 to 190, in just a few years, Zhang Yan became a prince. It can be said that Zhang Yan was very capable.
He was able to manage administrative and public security affairs in the mountainous areas north of the Yellow River. He could recommend Xiaolian to the court every year and send planners to Luoyang to report.
At the same time, Liu Bei was still just a plain man, running around everywhere.
One can imagine the huge gap between the two.
Of course, in the end, because of his ambition and background, Zhang Yan could only be granted the title of Marquis, and Liu Bei became the emperor.
But compared to most people at that time, Zhang Yan was an absolute success.
But now, there is no need to compare Wen Rensheng with Zhang Yan.
Zhang Yan can't even compare to his feet.
Therefore, the more Liu Bei and others watched, the more frightened and chilled they became.
Even if they tell the truth, what will happen?
The imperial court is still in a state of disarray.
This is a mountainous area. How many men and horses can be sent to destroy it?
When the time comes, all Wen Rensheng needs to do is submit a letter requesting submission, and he will be granted the title immediately.
On the contrary, they will be criticized for being unkind and unjust.
Regardless of whether Wen Rensheng has the intention of separatist rebellion or not, as long as he doesn't raise a banner, even if he raises a banner, it won't be a big deal in the end.
Too many people who rebelled were recruited and banned.
Therefore, Liu Bei and others could only sigh secretly.
As for assassination, it is even more impossible.
The opponent has many guards around him and treats them very well. They are not Lu Bu's temperament either.
The last option is to run away.
Neither assassination nor denunciation can be carried out.
But why hasn’t Liu Bei left yet?
It's simple, he wants to learn more.
As long as he learns more, he feels that he will be more likely to protect the strong man in the future.
After a silence, several people started drinking again.
This wine is much better than usual.
Also known as "Taihang Eight Wines", it has eight flavors and is being sold continuously through the sales channel of Zhangjia Manor in Youzhou in exchange for more food.
There are many people in wealthy families who are good at wine, but they cannot brew wine, but they have plenty of food.
If you want to steal their food, you will definitely resist with all your strength.
But if you exchange good wine for their food, even if you gain high commercial profits in the process, they will come to buy it.
Of course, there must be many wealthy families who want to rob it openly and covertly, but Wen Rensheng has soldiers, many of them, and the valley as a base.
He's not afraid of the imperial court, so why should he be afraid of being robbed?
This is a common commercial plundering method found only in later generations.
The other party had to provide a hundred kilograms of grain in exchange for wine that could actually be brewed with only ten kilograms of grain.
And alcohol is addictive.
Countless people from wealthy families get drunk every day.
Zhang Fei is a typical representative among them.
Therefore, although this thing is a waste of food, it can promote the circulation of food, which is naturally what Wen Rensheng must do.
Previously in Zhangjia Manor, because there were not many soldiers and horses, brewing could not be carried out on a large scale.
Now he has opened more breweries in the mountains.
In fact, most of them are secondary processing workshops, buying cheap junk wine, filtering and purifying it with modern technology, and turning it into good wine. If you go back and forth, the profit will be ten times or even dozens of times.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! In this way, most of the food and grass problem can be solved.
Although Liu Bei and others didn't quite understand the explanation, they could still tell. Over the past few months, the food and grass in the mountains had gradually become abundant.
Every day, large trucks escort grain and grass into the mountains.
The soldiers' physical fitness is also improving day by day.
There are more smiles on people’s faces.
The prestige of Wen Rensheng, the Diannong captain, was also increasing day by day.
If this wasn't Liu Bei's childhood and sworn brothers from the past, they definitely wouldn't be able to talk like this.
But just like that, a waiter serving wine heard a few words.
This attendant didn't know the character of Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Jian Yong and others, so he would never betray his benefactor and report secretly.
He just felt that these people were talking about the captain's rebellion.
If he were a villain like Tang Zhou, I'm afraid he would have reported it himself.
But he was a prisoner who came down from the battlefield and was promoted to a mountain citizen by Wenren.
It was difficult at the beginning, but now things are getting better and better these days.
There was also Ben Tou, and there were people making arrangements for him to get a wife.
How could he watch his benefactor being denounced?
So he took advantage of the opportunity to get wine, sneaked out, found the village where he was, and then found
Cao Cao, who had treated him very well in the past, told this matter.
When Fu Bingcao heard this, he was surprised that someone actually saw that his lord wanted to rebel...
Wait, it's not a big deal.
Isn’t it just building your own military system?
Isn't it equivalent to the county governor recruiting a few more private workers?
How could he actually frame Duke Ming for treason?
So Fubing Cao immediately delivered the letter through secret channels.
Briefly describe the matter.
Wen Rensheng saw it that night.
He smiled.
However, I still leave this matter to my own staff to handle.
That is, the students around him.
"Ming Gong, this matter seems to be a small matter, but in fact it reflects that the lower class people are at peace, while the middle and upper classes are worried, because everyone does not know what big things Ming Gong is going to do." Student A said.
"Yes, what Brother Gong said is that Ming Gong has no choice but to investigate." Student B followed.
In fact, don't they know that Wen Rensheng wants to gather people to rebel?
But they also felt that the Han Dynasty was almost over and it was time for a new master.
This is not just one person who thinks this way, but many people, ranging from aristocratic families to common people, at least one-fifth of the people think so.
Otherwise, why would the Yuan family start a two-Yuan layout, one in the north and one in the south.
Why did Cao Cao become king later and there were not many opponents?
Why did Yuan Shu dare to openly proclaim himself emperor?
Rebellious people are everywhere.
Now Wen Rensheng is preparing for rebellion, but he has not stated it clearly. The people at the lower level only think that the days are getting better and better, so naturally they will not think too much about it.
But if there are career seekers, they will think about where to go?
Is it to rebel, to seek peace, or to settle down?
Now is also the time to test Wen Rensheng.
Once we have the foundation, we must put forward the orthographic goals.
This can calm people's hearts and unite everyone.
Whose route is he going to take?
Of course it belongs to Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Build the wall high, accumulate food widely, and become king slowly."
After he finished speaking the nine words, everyone suddenly understood.
"Ming Gong is so talented that no one else can match him."
"Ming Gong's words were inspiring and enlightened the students."
"Ming Gong has the universe in his mind and the stars in his belly. It is difficult for anyone in the world to compare with him."
At this time, these confidants all bowed to the ground.
Winning people's hearts is difficult to say and easy to say.
Give food, give salary, give a way out.
Use this as a filter. Those who want to stay in peace will stay, those who don't want to stay will leave, and those who oppose it will be killed.
Establishing a system, with clear rewards and punishments, a strict system, self-replication, and self-expansion will naturally push the master forward.
Now Wen Rensheng is right in the mountains.
What he relies on is not force or charm, but wisdom, the wisdom that can lead everyone and make all students worship him.
In any era, the word mentor naturally means leader.
At first, everyone didn't know how to solve the problem of food and grass, but he solved it.
At first everyone didn't know how to march and fight, but he figured it out again.
Everyone didn't know how to deal with the relationship with the Han Dynasty, but he still solved it.
The solution to each problem represents layers of prestige and layers of aura.
Even if there are people like Liu Bei who want to deviate, more people and more moderate people still want to follow.
After all, what can you do after you leave the mountain?
If you become a hungry victim or a murdered person, will others use you?
Maybe you can use it, but it's not as good as being a confidant here, and it's not as good as being able to adapt here.
There are people who have solved the problems here. When you get out, you will have to solve those problems yourself.
If you can solve problems, you can gather people by being famous.
The strategy is set.
But how should Liu Bei handle this matter?
Wen Rensheng smiled and said: "When I do things, I only focus on my deeds and not my heart. Has he violated any of the promulgated regulations?"
Everyone thought for a while, and someone said: "He gathered in private, speculated on the public, made a lot of slanderous remarks, and could easily shake the morale of the army. This is the crime of slowing down the army."
What is the crime of slow army?
In short, all you need to know is that the crime associated with the word "military" is basically beheading.
Again, it's the kind of beating with military sticks, fifty or one hundred, without bribery, without the superior's words, without anyone asking for mercy, and someone can be beaten to death by accident.
Everyone gasped.
They know who it is just by hearing the voice.
I saw that the man had a wretched appearance and half of his hair was white, which was the result of a young man's gray hair.
This is Wen Rensheng's diehard fan: Wang De.
Wang De currently serves as the chief military officer.
The reason is also very simple. First, the scholar who promotes talent and learning truly embodies the universe, and there is no question that he cannot answer.
Secondly, Wenrensheng does not judge people by their appearance and treats them equally.
When Wang De was studying in the past, others turned him away as soon as they saw his appearance.
But here at Wen Rensheng, he was willing to endure hardships and his mind was quick, and he was quickly promoted from elementary school to middle school and even university.
Yes, the school now opened by Wen Rensheng is divided into three parts.
In the elementary school, he goes on a lecture tour once every half month.
Middle school, one week.
University hall, lectures every day.
There is also an inner school, so you can take it with you.
The teachers in the above schools are all old students who guide the new students.
When the old student talks about it, it is also a process of progress. If he is not proficient enough, he will be questioned by others when teaching.
Being a good teacher is one of the best ways for children to learn knowledge.
It's just that he is an introvert.
Moreover, we cannot allow anyone to dare to say that Wen Rensheng is not good at all.
Otherwise, the person must be recorded on a bamboo slip.
It is said that there are already a basket of bamboo slips like this.
"Is there anyone else?" Wen Rensheng asked again.
Everyone immediately understood that the teacher was testing them.
"The crime of slowing down the army was to first stir up excitement among the soldiers and create an impact. However, Liu Bei and others only had a private banquet and did not take the initiative to publicize it to the outside world. Therefore, it should not be this crime. It was just slander behind the scenes, or watching what happened.
If it is effective, if it spreads around and causes adverse effects, then we will be charged with disturbing public order." Another person said.
Wen Rensheng smiled.
Yes, some people are more moderate.
There are three types of people needed to govern a country. One is those who don't ask what is right or wrong and only actively stick to themselves; the other is neutral; the other is those who only stick to the truth.
The former can be used as a solid foundation, the latter as a base, and the last as a crest.
"Very good, let's just do it like this. Just keep a tight surveillance on him and no more charges for now." Wen Rensheng was not worried about Liu Bei going to report him or anything like that.
There's no point in complaining.
Now that the Han Dynasty is in trouble due to the Yellow Turbans, how can it possibly control a separatist power like itself that has not yet openly rebelled?
