Great Wei Overlord

Chapter 146 Competing for the Heart of the People

Chapter 151

Chen Xun said with a chuckle: "I don't know what else His Highness will tell the next official to handle before leaving, just tell me!"

Ran Ming murmured: "Chen Shijun didn't mention it, but I forgot about it. Now the people in Luoyang are resettled, how are they doing?"

Chen Xun bowed and said: "Before the Di people invaded Luoyang city, they set fire wantonly and destroyed more than [-] houses in Luoyang. At that time, according to His Highness's order, I urgently allocated military tents for the people to live in. They also organized the people to repair the houses urgently. Part of it has been repaired. It’s just that there is a lot of food loss, and there is a huge food shortage in Luoyang City.”

Ran Ming nodded. On the way to Luanchuan, at least Ran Ming didn't see a large number of fleeing people, which proved that Chen Xun at least implemented his own policy.Ran Ming said again: "Food is the most important thing for the people. This issue should be handled carefully. I don't know how Mr. Chen will deal with it?"

Chen Xun knew that Ran Ming was most concerned about people's livelihood. Of course, this was also the most important issue for every ruler.He replied: "The lowly officials mobilized the gentry of Luozhou to donate part of it, and used the money and food from the state government to buy part from various merchants. However, there is still a gap!"

Ran Ming said, "How much more do you need?"

"Based on the calculation of a catty of grain for a strong man during the solar eclipse, Luoyang's grain can probably be supported until April next year, and there is still a gap of more than two months, which requires more than [-] shi."

Ran Ming thought for a while and said: "This problem is not urgent for the time being, and it can be solved slowly. After Gu returned to Yecheng, he advised his father that he could transfer grain from Yecheng to Luoyang. However, Mr. Chen, next year's For the Qin farming issue, government support should be increased, and there is also the issue of resettlement of refugees. As long as there are refugees flooding into Luozhou, Luozhou must do everything possible to give them land to grow, food to eat, and work to do!"

People's hearts are actually the simplest thing. As long as most of the people can be fed, the country will naturally be stable.Just like the Song Dynasty in history, facing the powerful enemy Mongols who swept the world, because the emperor of the old Zhao family did a better job in terms of people's livelihood than previous dynasties, so facing the invasion of powerful enemies, Song's resistance was the most intense.As long as it wins the hearts of the people in the world, the rule of the Jin Dynasty will come to an end.

Ran Ming now not only has to guard against the military counterattack of the Jin Dynasty, but also competes with them for the hearts and minds of the people. This war for the hearts of the people does not see the smoke of gunpowder, but it is more dangerous than the smoke of gunpowder.

"Your officer obeys!" Chen Xun was very happy in his heart. As long as he worked until the end of next year's spring plowing, he could enter the central government. This was a turning point for an official to be transferred from a local government to the central government.

Ran Ming generously took away [-]% of Wang Zhi's dowry, gold, silver, money and food, and gave you the rest, Chen Xun.

On the way back to Taolin after bidding farewell to Chen Xun, Ran Ming kept thinking about a question.

The dead soldiers in Xie Ai's hands are actually the special forces of this era.It seems that it is a bit more powerful than Ran Min's "deaf and dumb".In the era of cold weapons, soldiers were randomly captured as soldiers, and their fighting will and fighting skills were very different from those of later generations.

All of them are capable of fighting against a hundred. May I ask, which barracks can resist such a fierce man entering the barracks in the middle of the night?What's more, this era doesn't even have the most basic means of preventing night attacks.

Don’t you see that in the Three Kingdoms, Gan Ning led a hundred cavalry to attack Cao Cao’s camp at night, one hundred against one hundred thousand and retreated completely.This shows the quality of soldiers in this era.

If Xie Ai used his team of dead soldiers to carry out night raids, specifically attacking key departments such as generals, generals, supplies, etc., supplemented by a frontal military attack, it would be strange not to win the battle.

Ran Ming thought of this and had an idea in his heart, he must also form a special force, although it is too late for training, but it is better than nothing.At least it can play an unexpected role at critical times.

As for the name of this army, he did not form an army alone, and now he did not ask Ran Min to independently recruit 5000 Luozhou Army. Although the number of Luanwei Army is small, it will be troublesome if it causes Ran Min to misunderstand.

He selected this special force from the original scout team, the thief army, and the Luozhou army, and directly belonged to the guards of the Chu Palace.Let Jing Zhan and his disabled guards trained in "Deaf and Mute" retrain.

Ran Ming is a person who thinks about it and does it. When he thought of this problem, he immediately sent an order to recruit elites from all armies.

At this time, Hongnong Yang's mansion.

At this time, a scene of Yang's family tutor was being staged in Yang Ji's study in the backyard.At this time, Yang Ji lost the self-cultivation of his gentry son, tore off his disguise of being a modest gentleman, and turned into an angry lion, crazily smashing the furnishings in the study.

"Bang, bang, bang!" There was a chaotic sound, and a valuable lacquer carving screen in Yang Ji's study was smashed to pieces by him.If Ran Ming were here, he would definitely say "Prodigal, too prodigal!"

Yang Ji smashed a screen and was still not relieved, so he threw the top-quality inkstone worth hundreds of gold to the ground.

"What kind of dignity is it, what kind of dignity is it!" Yang Ji roared up to the sky: "I think that my Hongnong Yang family is also a first-class wealthy family, but I live in such an unworthy woman. Think of me, Yang Ji, who is also famous among the world's scholars. The character of the name, my Yang Ji's daughter actually ran out to be a bandit. Hongnong Yang's face has been lost by you! The family is unlucky, the family is unlucky."

Facing it, Yang Ji lowered his head and covered his face, howling and crying.

Yang Yun was also a little embarrassed. In fact, she was even more wronged. She ran away from home and suffered a lot along the way.The money that did not go to Taolin City was stolen by the gangsters.

After leaving Taolin, the maid was also killed by the bandits in order to protect herself.If it hadn't been for Bai Feng's unexpected appearance, whether she could come back alive is still a question.

"I just don't want to marry Ran Ming!" Yang Yun is also the one who prefers soft things to hard things.Yang Yun heard those bandits talking about Ran Ming and Wang Zhilei's gossip in private in Jiguan Cave, which made Yang Yun even more disgusted with Ran Ming.

"It's against you!" Yang Ji was furious.

The ancient marriage system paid attention to "the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker".Under the influence of strict hierarchy and feudal ethics, the existence of this marriage system is the relationship of interests.The feelings of other parties are not considered at all.Yang Yun's words belong to the pursuit of one's own happiness in later generations, but in this era they are rebellious, so Yang Ji couldn't bear it.

With a sound of "slap!", Yang Ji slapped Yang Yun's face, and four finger prints appeared at that time.

"I will never marry that pervert!" Yang Yun threw down these words and ran out crying.

When Yang Ji was very angry at this moment, he had no one to vent his anger on, and turned his anger on Yang Chen.Anyway, Yang Chen and Yang Ji have been married for more than 20 years. Knowing Yang Ji's temper, they slowly enlightened Yang Ji.

Yang Chen said: "Alang, what do you think of His Royal Highness King Chu?"

Yang Ji wanted to use his daughter to marry Ran Ming because he saw that Ran Ming was a potential stock. Yang Ji thought for a while and said, "He has a unique vision, is decisive in killing and attacking, and is skilled in imperial court. He is a rare hero!"

Yang Chen said again: "Then does such a person go against his principles in order to meet a woman?"

Yang Ji was stunned, he hadn't thought about this question yet, but when Yang Chen mentioned it, he suddenly realized it. "Madame means..."

"Marriage may be useful for a family like ours, but the last thing those emperors talk about is family affection. Haven't you seen the Sima clan fighting for the throne? Sima Zhao's 25 sons killed ten of them by killing each other. One. Shi Hu's fourteen sons killed six of them, and their own brothers and sisters were fighting each other, would they care about this father-in-law who has no blood relatives?"

Yang Chen's beautiful eyes were narrowed. At this moment, she no longer had the kind, graceful and luxurious appearance just now, but was replaced by wisdom and shrewdness.

The corner of Yang Chen's mouth twitched into a faint smile: "My husband, if you want to take advantage of His Royal Highness Chu's power to make Yang rise again and marry you, it's better to offer your wisdom! Nuguan, that His Royal Highness Chu doesn't have a mastermind, why don't you let Hui'er Be the counselor of the King of Chu, so as to gain greater benefits for the Yang family!"

Yang Ji nodded, Yang Hui is his eldest son, who will inherit the position of Patriarch of the Yang family in the future, and now he can use Ran Ming to plan his own future.

It is said that after Ran Ming returned to the escape forest, he immediately ordered Jing Zhan to implement his special forces training plan.Even if he can't fight against Xie Ai's dead soldiers, at least he can guarantee that he will not be beheaded by Xie Ai.

At the same time, Ran Ming recruited his apprentices to discuss countermeasures.

Lu Yan and Wang Meng are not around Ran Ming, the only way to deal with it is to gather all the disciples to discuss collectively.There is a saying that one person counts the short and the other counts the long, and three cobblers are worth one Zhuge Liang.Ran Ming didn't want to believe that his hundred apprentices would not be as good as one Zhuge Liang.

Ran Ming cut to the chase and said, "Disciples, as a teacher, I just got the news that the Jin Dynasty sent 20 troops to attack our Great Wei. What's your opinion?"

Ran Ming told the disciples present the marching route of the Jin army that Ran Min had informed him, the leading generals and the number of soldiers and horses in each route, and the character weaknesses of the generals.

The big apprentice Chen Yong thought for a while and said: "Men, I think that the Jin army is coming in menacingly and is invincible. Please make peace first. Please think twice."

"Eldest brother, how can we please make peace!" Liu Ke immediately jumped out and said, "Could it be that the Jin army dispatched all-powerful soldiers, only to go out in winter?"

Chen Yong said: "Actually, it's not difficult. The Jin Dynasty has never wanted to recover the Central Plains. It's not that the Jin Dynasty has no strength, but because the Central Plains has suffered from wars for a long time, dilapidated, and people's livelihoods are dying. It is easy to recover, but it is difficult to govern. Besides, the Central Plains are mostly open. , The cavalry charge occupies a very large area, and it is difficult to defend. What the Jin Dynasty intends is just an orthodox name. As long as the benefactor writes to His Majesty, remove the title of emperor, and become a minister to Jin, the Jin Dynasty will naturally withdraw its troops and stop fighting."

Liu Ke said: "Elder brother, this is a problem for the strong. Let's not say that your Majesty once respected the Jin Dynasty as the master, but the Jin Dynasty refused to accept it. I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince His Majesty."
