14. afterglow

Because of these unexpected discoveries, Li Shushi had to stay in Mayi for a few more days.``

And as he stayed here temporarily, Jia Xu, an old fox who was still in charge of revolutionary work in Yanmen a while ago, was summoned by Li Shushi using the Great Summoning Technique before he had rested in Jinyang for a long time, and also came with him.

Fazheng, Lu Su and Xiao Sima Yi.

One of the latter two people was Li Shushi who planned to bring him out to see the situation in the north and build a relationship, while the other one was completely Su Xiaoluoli who believed that he could not be separated from his "educational halo" for too long, otherwise it would be detrimental to the other person's physical and mental development.

.

Li Shushi was somewhat curious about how Sao Nian would develop under such a halo (adjustment) and (religion).

But now it seems that it is at least more to Li Shushi's liking than the founder of the history of another plane that he is familiar with.

The reason why he said this is because Li Shushi knew very well that in this era and even until the beginning of modern times, although Chinese dynasties had a certain concept of country, the more important concept was the concept of surname and family. Only when there is a family, there is a country.

If you have a family and then a country, you would rather abandon the country and the country to preserve the continuity of the family. Only after ensuring the continuity and prosperity of the family can you consider being loyal to the country.

The most typical example is not the three dragon-tiger dogs of the Zhuge family, but the famous patriotic celebrity Wen Tianxiang who is unknown whether he will be born in the future. Although this man's personal integrity has been sung throughout the ages, he also wrote to him.

As a younger brother, he said that being loyal to the country is enough for him. As a younger brother, you need to think about the family. Just be an obedient citizen.

And this is already a sign of integrity. The other so-called famous scholars basically surrendered faster than the other.

Therefore, most of the famous Confucian scholars, in addition to internal fighting and criticism, are best at protecting their families and establishing their careers. They know very well that academic integrity and other things are fleeting. As long as they have power and live long enough, they can always succeed.

There was an opportunity to rewrite the history books. So I taught people to sacrifice their lives for benevolence and uphold righteousness, but my own family fell with the wind like a grass on the wall. I had a great time playing kowtow and bowing nine times.

So when I arrived at Li Shushi's place, I naturally wanted to add fuel and jealousy to the mainstream Confucian classics, add guns and sticks, and bring in private goods.

Ideas such as "The great chivalrous person serves the country and the people", "Prospering the country and ensuring peace is the first priority", "Only when the country is prosperous can the family be safe" and other ideas are constantly mixed in various commentaries on the classics - of course. He

I don't have that level. I can't do such a high-level thing.

Love, but because there is a smart, useful and capable Lolita around (the meaning of this sentence is very simple for the time being), naturally it cannot be abandoned. And poor Sima Yi will often become Su Xiaololi after completing the "tampering"

The first batch of "poisoned ones".

Li Shushi doesn't know what the effect will be. Anyway, Confucianism at least still makes people respect their parents, but there are still all kinds of bastards. Confucianism also teaches people to follow normal ethics. In what era will there be a shortage of rebels, and when will there be a shortage of all kinds of bastards?

It is a poignant story that needs to be saved by German orthopedics. Even because they have different surnames, the marriage between cousins ​​is legal.

Although judging from genetics, such a marriage relationship is much, much, much more dangerous than some marriages between people with the same surname.

I seem to have gone off topic? Pull it back. Pull it back.

All in all, under Li Shushi's guidance and Su Xiaoluoli's knowing and malicious cuteness, after several arguments, the old masters in the official school were speechless in the end, and Hu Zhao took the opportunity to accept Li Shushi's "original" theory summarized by Su Xiaoluoli.

.

Gradually transforming the idea of ​​loyalty to the emperor into patriotism instead of simply defining it as "obeying orders from superiors" may not be a good thing for Li Shushi, a prince who is a similar separatist warlord, but the country must eventually return to the

system

One, and many of his actions are based on a country, and these things are all subtle influences. Even if they really have an impact, then either the world will be at peace, or Li Shushi has already passed away, no matter the flood.

monstrous.

As for freedom, forget it. In the vast land of China, there are countless talented people. Although we cannot prevent the people from talking more than we can prevent the river, proper centralization of power is definitely conducive to the stability, prosperity and stability of the country.

prosperity.

Even so. Because of the population, the world will be divided if it is united for a long time, and it is a theorem that if it is divided for a long time, it will unite. Even if there are nuclear weapons and high-yielding crops, the carrying capacity of the world is always limited. If you don’t want the earth to be destroyed, everyone will not be able to do it.

Playing can only make some people end their historical mission early, leaving a small number to continue to enjoy and suffer in this world.

Of course, if we can allow mankind to march towards the sea of ​​​​stars, we don’t have to go far. As long as all the Oort nebulae in the pan-solar system are established as viable cosmic bases, it is estimated that mankind will not need too harsh wars to cleanse the land for thousands of years. Everyone

Although the battle will not subside, there is always an opportunity to establish a mechanism that can mediate various conflicts.

Well, in fact, this cannot be peaceful, because the enclosure movement is not a peaceful and friendly movement either within a country or on the entire planet, and when this movement evolved to the extreme, it was a war, and then followed closely

It was the brutal World War II.

So to put it all together, we may be able to draw a helpless conclusion, that is, the establishment of every new dynasty or new order, if it does not experience extremely cruel massacres, will inevitably lead to endless disasters, and it will take a greater massacre to obtain

Only with a relatively stable regime can ordinary people get a relatively long period of respite.

For example, the Qin Dynasty destroyed the six kingdoms and established a unified feudal system. However, due to the resentment of the six kingdoms and the collapse of the domestic political system, it died in less than a century due to the rise of a small man. For example, Emperor Wu of Wei, Cao Cao, originally planned to break the monopoly of aristocratic families.

But in order to ascend to the throne, he had to change from his initial enterprising spirit.

Compromise after compromise, the second generation finally paid a huge price for the opportunity to reach the top, but a few generations later, this beautiful wedding dress was given to the Sima family. Of course, the Jin Dynasty was not much better, regardless of

Is it the Western Jin Dynasty or the Eastern Jin Dynasty? Let’s not talk about the hardships. Especially in the Western Jin Dynasty, there was simply no peaceful life.

Sui and Tang, World War I and World War II, and even Chang Kaishen and Emperor Taizu Gao, when the conflicts are just covered up rather than eradicated, then after brewing and then breaking out, it will take more iron and blood to extinguish it, and even madness

Not only will the people no longer stand in the way, but they will be trapped in the torrent of the times. They are looking for the one that has escaped and the only way out left by the way of heaven.

So it seems that the flood behind you has evolved into a sentence to describe a person's irresponsibility, but if you think about it deeply, it is indeed another kind of helplessness. After all, no matter how good you are, the flood

All will surely come.

Once or twice. You can rely on a strong dam to block the torrential floods. But three times, four times, five times, six times, seven times or eight times... the dam will eventually decay. But the floods are continuous, varied, and unexpected.

Li Shushi felt that he was just a mortal, a very ordinary mortal. Even though he had a vision that could see for thousands of years, when he changed everything as a butterfly, how useful would this thousand-year vision be? It's hard to say, it's hard to say,

So the only thing he could do was to build a dam that could at least withstand floods for a while, and then... prepare for a flood artificially.

A flood that has been prepared for a long time should be easier to control than an unknown flood.

This is what Li Shushi thought. He didn't know if his thoughts were naive enough and he would become the smart-aleck Wang Zhaoming.

Of course, by the way, during this process, the Sakyamuni Sect flourished in the Middle-Earth, and the Sect of the Emperor of Heaven was a variant of the Sect of the Holy Son.

It is the tutor of the Holy Son who has gained more secular authority in the West.

Without buying and selling, there would be no killing. Without war, there would be no religion. Religion relies on war to spread its faith - whether it is using religious war to physically destroy the enemy, or using war to make the suffering people rely on religion. Anyway, when the cannon is fired, the missionary

People swarmed like locusts, because this is the time when people's hearts are at their weakest, and naturally it is also their best opportunity.

As for the fertile land of the Central Plains, the last thing that wants to see a unified political power, especially the unified political power of the Han people, is Buddhism. After all, they are foreign monks. Even if they are able to recite sutras, they will not be able to compare with the deep-rooted local culture.

sense of intimacy, so whether it is the Han people’s political power or the self-proclaimed Han people

Taoism will receive more support in the political power of Taoism, or Buddhism will appear in front of the world as an ally or vassal of Taoism. On the contrary, when foreigners take control of power, Buddhism will always be able to gain power much faster than when the Han people take power.

With the speed of development, it is easier to become a tool for the upper level and take advantage of each other.

Of course, it is not ruled out that there will be one or two weirdos like Emperor Wu of Liang among the Han people. However, the death of such a guy who betrayed his ancestors is naturally extremely miserable. Even Monk Hu saw the nature of the incident and stayed away.

Don't dare to get too involved with it.

So maybe ordinary believers are praying for peace, but those religious leaders are definitely the group of people who like war the most.

Again, no matter it is a politician who looks funny or a politician who looks idiotic, as long as he is a qualified politician, he must throw his conscience to who knows where and then put on a mask and walk out.

The ability of the family.

I always feel that if I continue to talk like this, it will turn into the so-called orthodoxy dispute that is often mentioned in some novels, so I will skip it.

So, just because some things in this world are too heavy, we should face our lives with funny words.

Appropriate funny is good for the body and mind, and if you indulge in funny, you may be able to create a lot of joy for this world. At least your death... is actually of little value. After all, there are too many funny cartoons in this era. How can you create funny ones?

The jokes will also be surpassed by new funny comparisons.

So now Li Shushi feels that not only is he not funny, but he is also full of majesty, if Su Xiaololi on the side doesn't laugh.

"Speaking of Tamago-chan, am I really that ridiculous? I can make you laugh from morning to night without stopping."

"No, no, no, how could I laugh at my husband? It's all because my husband today is too brave. I look at it with my heart swaying and I can't control myself. How can I find someone as brave as my husband?

Man, my wife is really happy~"

"Although I always feel that there is something in your words, Tamago-chan, but forget it, let's just think that you are praising me."

The background when Li Shushi said this was the "corpse" lying on the ground. None of them looked Han Chinese. Even though their clothes were Han Chinese, the difference in their faces made it impossible to mistake them.

recognize.

Who are they, why are they lying there, are they alive or dead, please continue to watch the Discovery Channel broadcast... Okay, I accidentally crossed the words. If anyone is really interested in that kind of program, please

Turn right when you go out, and it is said that the mystery of the gender of the crystal dragon and the mystery of how a certain druid transformed from an ordinary boy into a charming and beautiful girl are being broadcast there.

Ahem, the commercial break is over. Let’s return to the indoor martial arts arena that looks like a mess.

Because of the sudden change, Li Shushi had to come to the Zhang family's Wubao in Mayi again after a day. After all, there were hundreds of foreign slaves around him, and they were either young and strong, or had special status or skills.

Special talents. These are things Li Shushi and Su Xiaoluoli collected from several large-scale businesses within a ten-mile radius around Wei Taihou.

Although Li Shushi's behavior somewhat smacks of "taking other people's path and leaving others with no way to go", considering that these slaves had already arrived before they came, the best parts may have been selected by various related forces.

Go. Although there are many things that are gratifying in the rest of them, they are probably just missing pieces.

In this way, Li Shushi's behavior is actually not that hateful. Besides, he is not a villain who buys things based on his status without paying or maliciously lowering the price. You sell it and I buy it with the money. It is only natural.

No one can find a typo.

Li Shushi even sent the information he had obtained to Tuoba Liwei and others on the grassland. He didn't know whether these people had discovered the changes on the grassland, but he couldn't let them go regardless of whether they had discovered it before.

Live up to this rare opportunity to become a big player.

It's a pity that although he bought these slaves based on the principle of buying good things when he sees them, how to deal with them has become a very troublesome thing, because Li Shushi is the controller of the five states and has many capable people and strangers.

Countless people, especially Bingshuo and Yongliang, have no shortage of bitter cold places. They are best at producing all kinds of desperate warriors. With a little training, they are no worse than these barbarians. Moreover, in terms of organization and identity, perhaps

If it's even three or two points higher, it's easy to brainwash.

Of course, this does not mean that these barbarian slaves are not easy to brainwash. In fact, they have become rootless people and can easily become loyal warriors under Li Shushi as long as they have the right means. But what is embarrassing is how to identify them.

What about his identity?

Let them go directly? Tell them that Li Shushi is a good person and give them freedom and freedom?

Forget it, Li Shushi feels that he is not that stupid, and since he started, he has never been soft on those foreign races that have had a lot of friction with the Han people. It is not an exaggeration to say that his hands are full of blood. Not to mention that he also likes to catch them.

Slaves, and then those slaves are either sent to various black coal kilns, or used for digging mountains and building roads.

Enter the corvee. Such a person suddenly said that he would give freedom to the Hu slaves. Let’s not talk about whether he believed it or not. Li Shushi would feel extremely painful just by saying that. After all, he paid for it with real money and silver.

It would be impossible for Li Shushi to gain any reputation by letting them go, and it would be a waste of money. This is what a fool would do.

When Zigong Duanmuci ransomed people from the state of Lu, he wanted to show his high integrity and did not want compensation from the state. As a result, he was scolded by Kong Shengren and severely warned him about destroying other people's countries for the sake of his own little reputation.

What a mistake it was to act in good faith - it can be seen that if Li Shushi released these people, not to mention whether the second Lin Feng would appear, it would also reduce the enthusiasm of all the forces under his rule to capture foreign slaves.

Isn’t it also a huge loss?

Well, since these people cannot be released naturally, what can they do to generate value in return for Li Shushi's efforts?

Mining and building roads? It seems a bit too extravagant. After all, it was Li Shushi, Su Xiaoluoli and Old Man Tong who carefully selected the goods; staying by your side to look after the home and nursing home? And you let those who have passed the test after all the hard work

What do the members of the bodyguard think? Forming an independent army? Lin Feng's matter is imminent. It is not unacceptable for the Hu men who have experienced the test, but these slaves?

So Li Shushi, who was puzzled, told the two most trusted people around him about his troubles - Old Man Tong and his own Lolita. Although the two people said different things, their meanings were exactly the same.

Fight, fight. It would be best for Li Shushi to go out in person and practice hard with the opponent until he beats the opponent into submission.

Such an answer is not unexpected. After all, grassland people do not just say that they respect the strong. Li Shushi has personal experience. For example, those outside Jinyang City are becoming more and more peaceful and integrating with the Han people.

The faster Huns had to come to Jinyang not only because of the strength of Bingzhou, but also because of what they saw in their daily life and in the southern and northern campaigns.

After seeing the powerful army and excellent generals of the Bingzhou Army, he recognized the Han people's rule from the bottom of his heart, and even Li Shushi was gradually collecting various taxes from the other party that the residents under his rule had to pay. Even though many families owned or gained wealth due to their military exploits,

More or less tax exemption limit. But as long as you start paying taxes with peace of mind, this means that this group can be deeply controlled.

As for the beautiful life and magnificent vistas, they do not play a fundamental role, but a promoting and catalytic role.

Li Shushi may not have understood this well enough at the beginning. But after so many years, he has become more and more aware of this, so the advice given to him by Su Xiaoluoli and Tong Laotou did not surprise him or anything else.

mood.

It's just that knowing is one thing, but whether you can think of it is another.

It’s like many counselors’ strategies are just that. People will think “Ah, actually I can do it too” and make all kinds of envious, jealous and hateful sounds. They deeply regret that they were born in the wrong era. But when you

When you are in it, surrounded by all kinds of power games, and have to think over and over again, you will know how difficult it is to feel like you are in the fog, and Li Shushi believes in He Jin in this regard.

He and Yuan Shao must understand this feeling best.

When the decision is actually made, no matter whether it is good or bad, it can be regarded as clearing the air, and you can feel comfortable for the time being.

It's just that Li Shushi's mood feels better, but his body is not so...well, actually it's quite comfortable.

I have said before that although Li Shushi is not very skilled and capable in bare-handed combat, what he is best at is protracted fighting. Even if the physical condition of these barbarian slaves has improved a lot after eating,

It is domineering and self-healing. Although it seems a little unfair to the opponent, if it is just like this, it can be regarded as maintaining relative fairness on the surface. Anyway, Li Shushi is facing a wheel battle of slaves.

This is already a difficult challenge.

As a result, the Hu people who did not take the field looked at Li Shushi as if he was a little strong man who would not admit defeat even if he was knocked down. Instead, he tried to get up and fight again. Anyway, he would have to admit defeat after being pinned down for a few seconds, let alone a book.

Defeat is purely when one side completely defeats the other side's fighting spirit, so even if someone temporarily gains the upper hand, Li Shushi can use the strategic skills he learned from Wu Luan and use such small means to prevent the other side from being locked in for a long time.

Live him.

In this way, the opponent's final chance of winning was blocked by Li Shushi, so the result became that Li Shushi became more and more courageous as he fought, and every opponent who came out to challenge was frustrated and exhausted by Li Shushi.

When only one or two people are like this, some people may think that Li Shushi's victory is just accidental and lucky, but when more than ten people are lying there because of exhaustion, occasionally one or two will win without even waiting for exhaustion.

When Li Shushi, who had improved his skills through training, was lucky enough to win, everyone looked at Li Shushi with surprise and even fear.

Furthermore, many people even worship Li Shushi, a Han Chinese who does not seem to be very powerful.

Because his physical strength is so long, this is also a talent that can be called a miracle. It is also proven that no one can subdue him, so being defeated by him becomes a matter of course. And if there are so many such things, it is definitely not luck.

, but this Han man is telling them in this way - he is very strong!

Although it was a beautiful misunderstanding, it seemed to be a little better than expected.

When these people were really shocked, when Li Shushi announced that they would be grouped together and commanded by a Huns captain among his personal guards, these people all seemed very obedient.

Keep them around for a while first, and then decide based on their performance whether they will be scattered into the army in the future or establish a foreign branch like Dong Zhuo did.

With the arrival of several counselors, Li Shushi felt that it was time to set off for Pingcheng, an important town in the north of Yanmen. (To be continued...)
