"Enrich the world..." Liu Bei gave the potter a slightly strange look, smiled, and said nothing.
This is simply a fairy tale. When the world is in turmoil and the people are struggling to survive, it would be great if the people can have a full meal. There are countless places where Yizi eats each other. Many princes' own soldiers and horses can't even eat, so they still talk about it.
What 'rich'?
How do you get rich, and what means do you use to get rich? There are so many courtiers and talented people in the world that even collective efforts cannot achieve this goal. If you can really make the people of the world rich, how can the world be so chaotic?
A kid is still a kid after all. He looks quite mature and can be clever at critical moments, but at the end of the day he still has the same pedantic routine as his father! All he thinks about are unrealistic things, which is really ridiculous.
.
But things can be thought about in this way, but words cannot be said in this way.
Liu Bei smiled and said to Tao Shang: "Master Tao is really ambitious and admirable."
Tao Shang's emotional intelligence is quite high. How could he not see the flash of contempt in Liu Bei's eyes...
It really corresponds to the saying, 'I treat others with sincerity, but they treat me with mediocrity'.
But it doesn't matter, the pottery merchant is not a person who likes to show off his performance. Everything happens naturally and with the trend. Everything is done by someone. Everyone in this society has his own responsibility and value.
The potter thinks that he only needs to do what he should do until the day when it is done, and the day when he will be objectively evaluated.
Liu Bei did not come from later generations. It is normal for him to have ideological differences with the pottery merchants. If Liu Bei could fully understand the ideas and concepts that the pottery merchants brought back from modern times, then the pottery merchants might really have to consider whether to
Liu Bei was silenced.
…………………………
The princes celebrated grandly and the Hulao was closed, but the situation on Dong Zhuo's side was the opposite.
The will of the three armies appears to be quite low.
Those who win eat, drink and have fun, while those who lose must of course criticize themselves. This is a habit of this society, regardless of era.
However, Dong Zhuo really couldn't think of anything to criticize Lu Bu for this war... He also didn't expect that the people on the coalition side were so shameless, engaging in wheel battles and vying for the lead one by one. However, Lu Bu was too conceited and refused to admit defeat.
This resulted in such an embarrassing situation.
I really want Dong Zhuo to beat Lu Bu or scold Lu Bu. In good conscience, Dong Zhuo is really reluctant to do so now!
After all, it was not easy for Lu Bu to make a living by resisting so many shameless princes and generals with his own strength.
You should consider giving him some encouragement later.
"Prime Minister." Li Ru's voice brought Dong Zhuo back to reality from his meditation: "Marquis Duting has been defeated, so we need to make plans early."
"Plan?" Dong Zhuo frowned and said, "What's the plan? At worst, I will gather the soldiers and horses of Xiliang headquarters, Bingzhou soldiers and horses, the forbidden army of Luoyang North and South Army, the Yulin Army, and the princes to fight to the death. It's just a bunch of rats, I
Are you still afraid of them?"
After hearing this, Li Ru shook his head and said: "The Prime Minister does not have to be like this. According to my opinion, the princes are not monolithic. They all have their own affairs and their own thoughts. If you say that you really want to serve the country, I don't think there is any one...
...But they are all greedy and jealous people! They are jealous of the power of the Prime Minister. When the Prime Minister is here, they see the same enemy. If the Prime Minister shows a little tolerance, moves west to hide, and gives them a piece of fat meat, I can't imagine how many months it will take.
, the princes will inevitably kill each other! When the time comes, it will be effortless for the Prime Minister to bring peace to the world."
Dong Zhuo had been on the battlefield for a long time and had been involved in politics for a long time. He immediately smelled the flavor of Li Ru's words.
"Give up a piece of fat. What do you mean by fat?"
Li Ru chuckled and pointed to the land under his feet: "This is the capital of the Emperor, Luoyang."
"What?!" Although he was prepared, Dong Zhuo still couldn't accept Li Ru's words for a moment: "Give up Luoyang? What you said is crazy!"
Li Ru smiled and explained: "Xiang Guo, what I said is not crazy. It is actually a loyal and heartfelt statement."
Dong Zhuo said expressionlessly: "I'm not crazy. Luoyang's terrain is in the middle, surrounded by mountains, with three passes as a barrier. The Han Dynasty has a two-hundred-year foundation here. The king's spirit is flourishing, and it is actually a place of kings and dominators. It is
It’s the greatest city in the world! You want me to give up such a prosperous place to the princes? It’s simply ridiculous!”
Li Ru shook his head and said: "Although Luoyang is a treasure land, it is close to Henan and is a hub of important roads. It has been in the world since ancient times. It is close to Hanoi, to the east is jujube Chenliu, and to the south is Wandi. It is surrounded by enemies on three sides, but it is
But it is far away from the Xiliang base camp that the Prime Minister has been operating for many years! How can we maintain such a prosperous place surrounded by wolves for a long time?"
Dong Zhuo was silent after hearing this, stood up, walked to the big picture hanging in the hall, frowned and looked at it for a long time, and then slowly said after a long while: "You mean to move the capital?"
Li Ru whispered: "That's right... move the capital! Leave Luoyang to the princes. Hehe, the largest city in the world, if it gets into the mouths of these mad dogs, I wonder how they will share the food? Will it be divided evenly?
If the food is not shared evenly, I wonder if these vicious dogs will bite each other?"
"Hahahahahaha!" Dong Zhuo finally understood what Li Ru meant and laughed loudly: "Good! Very good! It is indeed a wonderful idea, and you are indeed my son-in-law!"
After the laughter, Dong Zhuo hesitated again: "But if we move from Luoyang, where should I live?"
Li Ru smiled and said: "Don't worry about this, Mr. Dong. There is a folk saying: There is a Han in the east and a Han in the west. It will be easy for a deer to walk into Chang'an... In today's world, it is not difficult to compare with Luoyang."
Of course, the one to compare with is Chang'an, the capital of the West!"
"Chang'an?" Dong Zhuo touched the thick secret beard on his chin, thinking and nodding: "This statement makes sense."
Li Ru frowned: "Do you understand, Prime Minister? Chang'an is also the old capital of the Han Dynasty, and its scale is no less majestic than Luoyang. To the west of Chang'an is the fertile land of Guanzhong, thousands of miles of fertile land. My lord is raising troops here to join us in Liangzhou in the west.
The old troops, heading east, can rely on Tongguan, Hanguguan, Hongnong, and Hengshan Mountains to resist the princes. It is really the place where dragons thrive and where bravery is!"
Although Dong Zhuo had many shortcomings, he also had many advantages, the most obvious one of which was to cut off when he was in trouble.
After listening to Li Ru's advice, Dong Zhuo no longer hesitated in his heart. He slammed the table and said: "Okay! I will move the capital to Chang'an and use Guanzhong as a barrier to resist! Leave Luoyang to the princes, I will stay here."
Xizhou, sit back and watch how they fight among themselves! How dog bites dog!"
Li Ru bowed slightly and said, "Best regards, Prime Minister!"
…
…
Dong Zhuo decided to move the capital to Chang'an. He acted very quickly. He ordered his generals to set up their own flags at Hulao Pass and responded from a distance. Thinking that they were suspicious of the troops, he led a heavy army back to Luoyang. He ordered the officials to pack their bags immediately and choose
Japan moved the capital.
All civil and military officials in the dynasty were shocked when they heard the news and hurriedly came to dissuade him!
Dong Zhuo was pressed for time and had no time to argue with them. Anyone who dared to speak out would be killed without mercy.
At that time, Dong Zhuo kidnapped the emperor and the officials in Luoyang City, and ordered his soldiers to forcibly move the people of Luoyang to Chang'an!
Before setting off, Dong Zhuo ordered the most precious gold jewelry, cultural relics, books, etc. to be forcibly removed from Luoyang! For a time, the main road from Luoyang city to the west gate outside the city was crowded with people and carriages migrating. Due to the hasty move, there was a lack of food.
, hungry people, crowded and trampled on each other, resulting in injuries and countless deaths.
Moreover, due to the disorder, Dong Zhuo allowed his soldiers and horses to rob and rob the people. As a result, there were many looters and violent fights, and corpses were scattered all over the roads along the way. The scene was very miserable.
Even so, Dong Zhuo was still not satisfied. In order to disgust the princes who wanted to enter Luoyang, Dong Zhuo ordered Xiliang soldiers to burn the city of Luoyang.
With the order, the palaces, official residences, and private houses in Luoyang City were all burned to the ground, and a radius of two hundred miles was reduced to scorched earth. The once prosperous Luoyang City turned into a bloody hell within a few days.
And Dong Zhuo's generals, headed by Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji, Fan Chou and others, dug out the tombs of emperors and ministers outside Luoyang City, and transported all the excavated gold, silver, jade and all treasures to Chang'an...
Such a shocking scene, like Shura Hell, could only be directed by Dong Zhuo...
The news of Dong Zhuo's relocation of the capital was released and was quickly reported to the alliance of princes outside Xingyang Pass.
After the battle against Lu Bu outside Hulao Pass, the princes suddenly gathered their troops and horses for some unknown reason. They all watched in unison, but there was no sign of an advance. Cao Cao warned Yuan Shao several times to quickly advance the army, but Yuan Shao just kept humming.
Jiji's response was without actual action, and no one from the princes came forward to respond to Cao Cao.
Tao Shang knew in his heart that this was because the princes were getting closer and closer to Luoyang City...
The saying that sharing joys and sorrows cannot lead to sharing wealth and honor is talking about the group of people in front of us.
When the city of Luoyang was still thousands of miles away, all the princes were united, positive, upward, progressive, and made sacrifices with blood and tears for the people of the motherland.
However, once the desired goal is close at hand, the emotion of how to share the benefits will naturally overwhelm the emotion of contribution to the country. This is human nature, and potters can understand it very well.
But now that Dong Zhuo has moved his capital to Luoyang, the princes still adopt a wait-and-see attitude. This is somewhat unjustifiable, and some people must not be able to bear it.
