Rejuvenation of the Han Dynasty in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 194 Promoting the Way of Civil and Military Affairs
The auspicious snow heralds a good year, and at the end of the new year, a heavy snow covered the territory of Youzhou, leaving no one in the wild.

Liu He returned to Jicheng to report on his work. Liu Yu was very relieved to hear that the Xianbei people had been killed and dispersed, and he was very proud of his son who had just turned [-].

"The seal was sent out half a month ago, and there has been no reply so far. It seems that Your Majesty's dragon is not in good health!" Liu Yu frowned, his eyes full of worry.

News came from Luoyang a while ago that Liu Hong was seriously ill, and Liu Yu was very worried about it. Now that there are constant rebellions in various places, if the emperor dies at this time, the consequences will be disastrous.

Liu He said with a smile: "Your Majesty inherits the destiny, and there are many imperial physicians to diagnose and treat him. It should be fine. My child guessed that it was snowfall in the north, and the envoy was delayed on the road."

"I hope so!" Liu Yu sighed slightly, and said: "Now that the Great Wall has been leveled, Youzhou has nearly [-] soldiers and horses. ?”

"Why did my father want to disarm the army? My child thought it was absolutely impossible!" Liu He was taken aback.

Good guy, just set up a small team, is this going to tear things apart?
Liu Yu frowned and said, "Now that Youzhou is peaceful and Xianbei is powerless to attack, what's the use of these many troops? You and my father and son guard the frontier. If there are too many troops, people in the court will inevitably be suspicious. This year Qingzhou and Xuzhou have several Hundreds of thousands of refugees have entered Youzhou, money and food are in short supply, and the abolishment of troops can just resettle the people, isn't it killing two birds with one stone?"

Liu He sighed in his heart, and said: "Because the thieves in Qingzhou and Xuzhou are still in trouble, and the Black Mountain army is eyeing them, we need troops to guard the territory and protect those people who are fleeing. If even Youzhou is broken by the thieves, let those people go Where to?"

Liu Yu stroked his beard lightly and asked, "With Boxing's bravery and many soldiers under his command, do we need so many soldiers and horses to guard against bandits?"

Liu He looked at Liu Yu helplessly. This benevolent and loyal gentleman of the Three Kingdoms has governed Youzhou in the past few years. .

In other words, Liu Yu is a little naive, thinking that everyone in the world is as benevolent and loyal as he is.

In the past few years, Liu Yu has set an example in Youzhou, adhering to frugality as his practice, repairing his crowns and eating without meat. Not only the officials within the country have imitated the frugality, but even the wealthy families from far and near who originally lived in extravagant ways have been influenced by him and changed their customs. This shows that his High charisma.

And Liu Yu has another advantage, don't do to others what you don't want yourself to do to yourself!
His thrift and poverty are limited to himself. He cultivates his own morals, but he will not ask his family to be so frugal, as long as they don't waste money. He even bought jewelry for several wives, let alone a few children.

This should be placed on future generations, he is simply a good model husband!

If such a person was in a prosperous age, he would definitely become a famous figure of a generation, but in a troubled age, this is the way to die.

Judging from the ending of Liu Yu being attacked and killed by Gongsun Zan, in troubled times, benevolence and righteousness alone cannot protect the family.

Liu Yu's advantage is his benevolence, and he hopes to solve everything in a peaceful way, and implements his benevolent government. His shortcoming is that he is benevolent and righteous to everyone. If he wants to deal with the barbarians with mercy, it is even more conceivable that others will be treated softly.

Knowing Liu Yu's personality, Liu He was not angry, and patiently explained: "Now Qingzhou has hundreds of thousands of bandits, endangering Hebei, and the Xianbei army will invade the border at any time, not to mention the fact that the Xiongnu in Bingzhou is rebelling, so we must take precautions early. , relying on the child alone, I'm afraid..."

At this time, Jushou came to discuss the division of land for refugees after the beginning of spring. After Zhang Ju's rebellion, hundreds of thousands of people from Qingzhou and Xuzhou moved northward, and they were all resettled in Guangyang County. Insufficient, these refugees just serve as supplements.

Liu He knew that Jushou was good at planning, so he took the opportunity to tell about the disarmament, hoping that he could dissuade Liu Yu.

After hearing this, Ju Shou clasped his fists and said: "Although the territory of Youzhou is peaceful now, the surrounding bandits are not peaceful. It is not a good opportunity for Ming Gong to withdraw his troops at this time!"

Liu Yu asked, "How can you see it?"

Ju Shou said: "Youzhou relies on the virtue of Duke Ming, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. If there is insufficient military equipment, it will be like a generation of scholars with treasures, and everyone covets them. Especially the Hu people outside the Great Wall are rebellious and difficult to train by nature. Then the Hu people will pay tribute year after year, and the weak Han will invade the frontiers, and the Duke of Ming wants to cherish the gentle and distant people. If there is no force to deter, he is like a hunter without swords and guns. The Hu people are even worse than tigers and wolves.

"Well—it makes sense," Liu Yu nodded slowly.

Seeing that he hadn't made up his mind yet, Ju Shou said: "In the past, when the Han dynasty flourished, Empress Dowager Dou thought that culture and morality could flourish, that martial arts should be abolished, and that the method of ending battles should be abolished. If the sage does not fall, the use of the five talents will be useless or can be wasted. What's more, nowadays, the court is in chaos and the world is in chaos. Without military preparation, it is not enough to protect the territory."

Liu Yu then nodded and said: "Gong Yu's words are indeed reasonable. Since this is the case, the strategy of farming must continue to be implemented. The nirvana used by Boxing should be included in taxes to make up for the shortage of the government treasury."

This is understandable, Liu He agreed, and secretly gave Jushou a thumbs up. People who can talk are really different. They can not only explain the truth, but also persuade others. This is the brilliance of counselors.

As Jushou said, even if Liu Yu wanted to use gentle means to solve the border troubles, he had to be tough enough himself. Without the deterrence of swords, guns and sticks, why should people listen to you?

In Liu He's view, if Liu Yu and Gongsun Zan's political ideas could complement each other, and the two would cooperate sincerely and combine pacification and suppression, fighting and pulling, there might be nothing wrong with Yuan Shao in Hebei.

Now that he has filled this gap, isn't he closer and stronger than Gongsun Zan?
Killing Liu Yu's idea of ​​disarming the army, Liu He felt relieved, stayed in Jicheng for a few days, and then rushed to Zhuojun without stopping, where his real foundation was.

In the past two years or so, the Yenching Academy has recruited many students, but there have been no celebrities, but thinking about it, most of the celebrities are high-minded, and these people don't even bother to come to the Academy to study. .

The only thing that made Liu He gratified was that Han Long successfully accepted Zhang Zhongjing to Fan Yang a year ago. It turned out that Zhang Zhongjing’s mother died of illness, and the filial piety was still half a year away. Although he was very tempted by Liu He’s invitation, he had to wait until the filial piety expired to set off.

Han Long had no choice but to ask someone to deliver a letter to Liu He. Since he had not found Wang Yue before, he returned to Luoyang to find Wang Yue. Unexpectedly, the person who delivered the letter had an accident on the way. The letter was not delivered, and contact was lost for a while.

Liu He is full of expectations for the medical school with two great doctors.

Hua Tuo is in charge of surgery, Zhang Zhongjing is in charge of internal medicine, and there are a large number of medical books sent by the palace. If the two of them can study together, they will definitely make more progress, and may have a great impact on the entire history of medicine.

In addition to "Qing Nang Shu" and "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases", there may be another medical classic.
