Daqin Fusu: It is difficult to start the battle

Chapter 118 Where Does Power Come From?
But Fusu didn't plan to go to Lantian Daying right now. He visited the Lantian Industrial Park not only to see people making porcelain and steel.

So Fusu just whispered a few words to Chen Ying who was following behind him, and the latter immediately got on his horse and left, going to the Lantian camp first to deliver the edict.

Since we want to watch Wang Yuan shoot arrows, why not take this opportunity to review the training situation of the Lantian Camp.

After all, this is an army guarding the south gate of Xianyang, and once there is a change in Xianyang, this army can immediately enter the city to take over the city defense and the gates of the imperial palace.

Because of this, after Fusu succeeded to the throne, he paid special attention to this powerful army in Gyeonggi. Not only did he replace some of the grassroots military officers with his guards in the Jiuyuan Army, but he also paid attention to Yang Xiong, who controlled the entire army, and Other generals also received rewards from time to time.

As a traveler, he understands two truths:
1. Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun; 2. Power comes from below, not from above.

The first is easy to understand, and the second is not difficult.

Just answer one simple question.

Is it because one person has power and others have to obey him?Or does this person have power because others obey him?

Many people doubt about power because they don't understand what the essence of power looks like.

They believe that the essence of power is the former, so they look for legitimacy everywhere, and come up with an emperor who wears the sun and the moon and his back, and is tied to the country and waist; combines the beliefs of all people, gathers the mighty power of mountains and rivers; holds the constitution of heaven, and becomes the country. Come on...

In fact, this is one of the greatest misunderstandings in human society!

The essence of power is actually the latter, because everyone obeys a certain person, and he has power!
The emperor's power comes from the obedience of the ministers, and the minister's power can come from the bestowal of the emperor, or from other people attached to him, such as cronies or subordinates.

Once everyone chooses not to obey, the power of the emperor is invalid, and the usurpation of the throne by the powerful ministers means that more people are willing to obey the powerful ministers than obey the emperor.

For example, Tian Ji's ancestor, Qi Taigong Tianhe inherited the ambition of his ancestors, gradually emptied Jiang Qi, and finally established himself as Qi Jun, exiled Qi Kanggong Jiang Loan to the island, although Zhou Tianzi didn't want to, but in the end he had to hold his nose to admit Tian Qi's status!
So why should everyone obey a certain person?

Fusu came to a conclusion based on the memory of his later generations and his understanding of the classics of this period.

The world is bustling for profit!
A person who expects to benefit from obedience will obey.

Of course, this kind of interest cannot be simply regarded as money or desire, and the realization of self-worth is also a kind of interest.

So some seemingly death-defying orders were obeyed.

For example, Jing Ke assassinated the Qin Dynasty, dressed in white and black water, and sang long with ions. He died of righteousness, not loyalty;

In addition, reducing the damage to interests is also one of the reasons for obedience.

People are good at thinking. When he feels that disobedience will lose greater interests, he will choose to obey.

The reason why the power struggle is so fierce is that it is not a controllable thing.

Power comes from obedience, and the essence of obedience is the expectation of interests, and interests are controlled by power.

So once this cycle is formed, positive feedback will continue to be generated.

The more people obey, the greater the power, and then grasp more interests, so that the greater the expected benefits for the followers, and the more obedients again...

For example, Qin destroyed the Six Kingdoms. Although there were occasional defeats, the overall progress was triumphant all the way, so in one victory after another, the world became one!

So what Fusu has to do is to keep drawing cakes, and strive to turn the big cakes drawn on paper into real big cakes. During this period, he must always master the big knife to divide the cakes!

What I give you is yours. If I am not happy, I can take it away from you at any time!

This point, those clans who have participated in the South Sea Plantation have a deep understanding.

The brown sugar has not yet arrived in Xianyang, but Fusu has arranged them clearly.

Of course, the money obtained from selling the brown sugar pre-sale coupons has also been distributed to them according to the original agreement.

However, judging from the pre-sale orders in the glass workshop these days, a considerable part of the money has already returned to Fusu...

Stimulate domestic demand, stimulate consumption, and realize economic internal circulation.

Well, the speed of making money is so fast that I have no motivation to deal with transparent glass... While Fusu was thinking about how to draw a bigger pie, Sima Chang took a few soldiers and held a Come with a set of shining silver armor.

This is a suit of armor that Fusu customized for him, imitating the style of the Tang Dynasty Mingguang armor restored by later generations in his memory. It is mainly used for military parades during the La Festival.

The whole set of armor is divided into pockets, front breastplate, back breastplate, animal face shoulder armor, arm guards, knee pads, wrist guards, leg guards, combat boots, as well as hip-length body armor and battle skirts.

Except for the iron plates on the leggings and wrist guards, the rest are all made of fine scale-like armor.

"This..." Young Master Dagon stared straight at him, and kept opening and closing his mouth. Although he is not a general, and Qin Lv is not allowed to hide armor, he still wants to have it!
"Your Majesty, please let the veteran test your armor for Your Majesty!" Young Master Dagon looked at Fusu with bright eyes.

As a man, the armor is just like the paper man's wife, and he will never allow others to get involved... Fusu shook his head and flatly refused.

He stepped forward and let several engineers put on the armor for him.

They fasten the breastplate and carapace on Fusu's shoulders with belt buckles. The armor belt is tied longitudinally from the neck down to the chest, then divided left and right to the back, then tied to the back, and then tied to the abdomen.

There are two knee skirts on the left and right under the belt, two layers of shawls on the shoulders, and the upper layer is the head of a ferocious animal that Fusu can't name.

These engineers had already rehearsed for a long time, so they didn't have much time to dress him neatly.

Fusu shook the iron helmet with neck guard and ear guards, then adjusted the neck guard on the body armor with his hands, knocked on the heart guard that was divided into two pieces on the front half of the body armor, and at the same time felt a large block deck pressure.

It's so heavy, equivalent to the weight of future generations, at least thirty to forty catties... Fusu moved his shoulders, walked a few steps forward amidst the clattering sound of nail plates, squatted down, stood up, and stretched freely.

Because the joints and the waist are connected by leather armor, this set of armor does not affect the movement, but Fusu thinks that it should be decorated with some more.

After all, his set is for military parades, the more fancy the better!
All you need is an eye-catcher!
After Fusu finished his addiction, under the envious eyes of Gongzi Dun, he asked the attendants behind him to help him take off the armor, and brought it back to the palace later, so that Xianyang's craftsmen could decorate it again.

"Let's go, accompany me to see how the glass lamp is doing."
