At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

It would be better to say that without such an arrangement, Wang Haibo would feel that there is something wrong with the king.

So Wang Haibo wasn't worried at all.

He himself is only a mid-level and lower-level officer, with limited knowledge, he simply cannot master the commanding skills of more troops and higher combat techniques.

The Zhuren people learned a little combat skills with less than 1000 people, and it could not pose any threat to the Wei army who was good at fighting with large corps.

Moreover, training takes time, and it takes time to train an army. It takes a lot of time, and there are many actual combat exercises, and there must be a spirit.

They couldn't train Wei Jun for several years.

After Guo Jun learned about this matter, Guo Jun fell into deep thought. After careful consideration, Guo Jun had a conversation with Wang Haibo.

"You have gained their trust now. They have a certain trust in you, and even let you get in touch with their royal family, lead the army, train the army, and have a certain degree of internal secrets. I think this is a good opportunity."

"Young master, what kind of opportunity is this?"

Wang Haibo didn't know what Guo Jun meant.

"I mean, Hai Bo, what do you think we need to gain a foothold in this place?"

"what do you need?"

After thinking about it, Wang Haibo didn't quite understand Guo Jun's meaning: "My lord, if you want to establish a firm foothold here, what you need is the army and the population. If the army defeats them, the population will occupy this place, and then we will build our Xishu Kingdom, isn't it? Is that so?"

"So I thought the same way. I thought it would be easy to establish the Western Shu Kingdom, but..."

Guo Jun touched her chin, her sexy beard gradually formed: "The Zhuren Kingdom has a population of 80 million. How many people should the Zheluo Kingdom have? These two small countries have more than 100 people. How many people is there in such a small country?"

"Young master, what do you mean?"

"I mean, Wei Guo, how many people can support us?"

Guo Jun looked at Wang Haibo: "Will the Wei State support our population as many as 100 million? No, Hai Bo, my father told me that the Wei State will only support my population of 50 at most, at most, 50. Not more.

There are more than one million people in two small countries. The number of indigenous people on this land is far beyond our imagination. Only by ourselves, it is impossible to reproduce so many people in 100 years. On this land, We are a complete minority.

If we want to occupy this place, develop and grow, and establish a powerful Xishu Kingdom, we cannot rely on our own population of 50. We need more people, more people, and an army. "

Wang Haibo opened his mouth.

He found that he seemed to understand what Guo Jun meant.

"My lord, what do you mean, we can't treat these small countries with a pure method of destruction?"

"Yes, it can't be purely exterminated, it can't just be pure slavery, because we have few people, it is difficult for us to control the number of indigenous people who are several times, ten times, or even ten times larger than us. If we want to control, we must have some people Come help us."

Guo Jun pointed to the outside of the barracks: "Just like we control those prisoners of war and let them work, we don't need to take action directly. What we need is to support those among them, those who have mastered the control over them. A person with power over life and death.

As you have seen, if we are the masterminds, those people will soon become our accomplices after gaining the power of life and death. They will not think about resisting us, but will think about how to use their power to live Get a better life and get out of the sea of ​​suffering.

If we set some standards for them, such as how much work is done every day, and how much they can do every day, they can get some rewards, some rewards, food, drink, play and even women, they will work harder Hard work! "

Wang Haibo already understood Guo Jun's intentions.

"My lord, do you want to use these people, choose some people from them who can cooperate with us in governing the local area, use them, control a large number of indigenous people, and then we will live on top of them, so as to facilitate governance?"

"Hahahaha, not bad, you already understand what I mean."

Guo Jun laughed: "With us alone, even if there are as many as 50 people, it will be difficult to manage so many indigenous people, and direct conflicts will easily arise. At that time, we will face endless resistance. There are only so many of us, and sooner or later we will lighting.

But if we make full use of the locals, give them benefits, give them benefits, and let them squeeze the locals instead of us, we don’t have to face the locals directly. The local natives will be resentful, and they will be even more resentful of those who cooperate with us, rather than we.

My own betrayer is always more worthy of hatred than the real enemy. This point was discovered and used by my father, and then I discovered that it may not only be used to deal with prisoners of war, but it is not impossible to use it to govern the local area, isn't it? "

"Govern the local..."

Wang Haibo was silent for a while, and suddenly he had a flash of inspiration and suddenly realized.

"Young master, do you want me to use my identity, and the fact that King Zhu Nian trusts me, to find someone among them who is willing to cooperate with us?"

"Of course, I want you to use your identity to cultivate and discover some people who are willing to cooperate with us."

Guo Jun pointed to Wang Haibo: "What you want to pass on to them is the idea that our Wei country is omnipotent, our Wei country is strong in everything, and every point of our Wei country is better than them, let them believe .

You have to make them believe that we are much stronger than them, not only in weapons, but also in many aspects that are stronger, more powerful, and more promising. Compared with us, they themselves are dwarfed by us, and they are not as good as anywhere. "

"Isn't that true?"

Wang Haibo was a little puzzled.

Of course, the Zhuian Kingdom cannot be compared with the Wei Empire anywhere. Compared with the Wei Empire in any point, it is very backward.

Whether it is economy, politics, military, technology, infrastructure, etc., Wei Empire, a county with a large population, can beat them.

If Guo Peng could agree to give Guo Jun the power of a county, Guo Jun would have been able to lead his troops to pacify the Zhuan Kingdom long ago.

But the problem is that the Wei Empire is not here, and even a county cannot be brought here. It is not easy to send more than 1 of them here.

To move a county here, based on the current shipping capacity of the Wei Empire, it would take more than ten round trips.

It will take at least four years to do it, and it is still under the premise that there will be no storms at sea.

This is simply not realistic.

Therefore, it is necessary to use limited power to show the infinitely bright distance, and make them believe that Guo Jun's smallness cannot represent the power of the Wei Empire at all, and is as strong and indestructible as the Wei Empire.

"Of course this is the truth, but they don't know it. You have to do everything possible to let them know and convince them, so that they will admire us. In the future when we annex the Zhuren Kingdom, don't stand on the side of King Zhuren, but rather Be on our side."

Guo Jun's ambition surprised Wang Haibo.

Isn't it treason to take our side instead of theirs?

"For them, this is treason, right?"

"Apart from the royal family and bureaucrats, who would think that they are from the country? The so-called country does not know the people, but the people do not know the country. Hai Bo, I heard that you were born in poverty. You joined the army early. to culture, right?"

"Yes, the kindness of the Supreme Emperor and His Majesty to the general will never be forgotten by the general. Without me, Wei, the subordinates would have starved to death."

Wang Haibo's voice was a little low, probably because he remembered the unbearable things in the past.

"Well, there are many, many people like you. Former Han, no one cares about you. You can only be abandoned and starved to death. Wei Guo will give you food, let you learn culture, and become military officers. , Official, so, do you miss the former Han?"

"how is this possible?"

Wang Haibo shook his head again and again.

"Compared to us, Zhuren Kingdom is like the former Han Dynasty."

Guo Jun shook her head: "To this day, I can understand how great things my father has done. The former emperors only regarded ordinary people as production tools and did not treat them as human beings, but my father regarded them as human beings.

Let them read and practice calligraphy, let them have enough food, let them have the opportunity to be officials, they can be military officers, and change their situation, so people like you appear, and people like you, in Zhulan Kingdom, have ? "

Guo Jun's question made Wang Haibo think for a while, recalling the people he saw in Zhuan Kingdom.

Then he shook his head decisively.

"No, the civilians in Zhulan Kingdom are just like the subordinates who were about to starve to death, just lingering on their last days."

"So, they don't care about changing who is the ruler, and they don't care whether the name of the country is Zhuan or Xishu. It's the same for them anyway. As long as the powerful and powerful fail, they will be ruled by us honestly. .”

Guo Jun stood up and walked a few steps in her barracks.

"Dealing with such a country may seem difficult, but it is not that difficult in fact. It is just that we are short of population and cannot take risks. I want you to do this, increase the possibility of success, and use our advantages to attract them. Stand with us on the ground.”

"My lord, I'm afraid it won't work just like that? These people are very shrewd people. If we don't give them some sweets, can we make them stand with us to deal with King Zhuyan?"

"Then give them some benefits, help them introduce the route to Wei State, help them do maritime trade with Wei State, and use my skills."

Guo Jun nodded: "Let them see with their own eyes how powerful I am, Wei Zhi, and what kind of existence I am, so that they can wear down their will to resist."

Wang Haibo thought about it, and felt that it seemed quite meaningful to do so.

"My subordinates understand that the young master wants to swallow the Zhunian Kingdom, but thinks that it is very difficult to swallow the Zhuren Kingdom with more than 1 people, so we have to buy some dignitaries in the Zhuren Kingdom to make them love us .”

"Yep."

Guo Jun said with a smile: "Presumably, my elder brother won't mind me pretending to be a tiger."

Wang Haibo was stunned for a moment, realized what Guo Jun was talking about, and hurriedly said seriously: "Your Majesty and the son are brothers, so of course I don't mind."

"is it?"

Guo Jun smiled noncommittally: "I don't know what my brother is doing now, do you know that I am in a state of desperation to annex the Zhuan Kingdom? Well, well, yes, Hai Bo, I have already sent someone to take the initiative to contact Zheluo Kingdom is here, pay attention to your side."

"...Yes, this subordinate understands."

Wang Haibo knew what Guo Jun was talking about.

After that, he left and went back to where he needed to fight.

Guo Jun stayed in the barracks to handle some military affairs, and then went to inspect the progress of Wanghai City, the first city she built on this exotic land, accompanied by her subordinates.

He was still envious of Guo Jin, envious of his elder brother who could inherit that huge property and become the master of an unprecedentedly powerful empire without doing anything.

It is not necessary to start from scratch, but to be the master of a huge empire from the very beginning, how happy it is to turn your hands into clouds and turn your hands into rain?

What is he doing at this moment?

While inspecting the construction site, Guo Jun was imagining far away.

Of course, he couldn't know that at this moment, his elder brother, Guo Jin, the second emperor of the Wei Empire, was worrying about the fact that the abdicated Supreme Emperor Guo Peng was about to go on a tour of the world.

Chapter 1504 One Thousand 440 Four Guo Jin Can Provide Some Additional Paid Value-Added Services

It is not the first time that Guo Peng has brought up the matter of going on tour with Guo Jin.

When Guo Jin came to the throne, Guo Peng told him that he would leave Luoyang many times in the future and go to many places, all of which he wanted to go but could not go when he was emperor.

Whether the emperor has been to certain places is of great significance to the empire's rule over these places.

He decided to use the rest of his life to do things that were not easy for the emperor to do.

And this time, he will take away the queen Cao Lan and the concubines, which is equivalent to traveling while doing business.

So that Guo Jin didn't even know whether Guo Peng did this for business or private.

Whether it is to go to the place to investigate economic, military, and educational issues, or to travel all the way to make up for the regrets of youth, or both.

Guo Peng's answer was very straightforward.

"All right."

Guo Peng replied to Guo Jin very straightforwardly: "When my father was young, the world was chaotic, separatist regimes, wars, and the world was broken. Where can there be a pure land on earth? Now it is different, the world is stable, and the beautiful places should have become harmonious. Just as beautiful as it was 40 years ago.

Moreover, when my father was young, he was busy with wars and state affairs, so he couldn't accompany your mother well. Now that you are the emperor, my father just wants to use the remaining time to make up for your mother and take her out for a walk. Will you not even meet this requirement as a father? "

"This……"

Guo Jin was full of depression: "Father, my son will not say much about this kind of thing, but your identity... If you go on a tour of the world, how can the officials of the world not panic and spend a lot of trouble?

The son is afraid that those officials will do something to disturb the people and obstruct the production. Didn't such things happen when the father was on tour before?In order to please his father, those officials did a lot of wrong things. "

Guo Peng chuckled.

"You issue an imperial decree, whoever dares to do something that disturbs the people, just to welcome the father, do some good-looking things, and delay the production, then he should stop being an official, go home and farm, can't Because of this kind of thing, I will not go on tour.”

"........."

Guo Jin swallowed, and had nothing else to say.

His father was always so sharp and straightforward, and he really wanted to be like this.

Although it can't be stopped, and it shouldn't be stopped, Guo Peng is the Supreme Emperor after all, and he is still the god of the sea in this country. Even if he himself said that everything should be kept simple, can he really be kept simple?

Guo Jin convened important ministers to discuss the arrangement of Guo Peng's tour, and finally decided to let Xu Chu and Dian Wei, veterans who had guarded Guo Peng for more than 20 years, lead half of the forbidden army, that is, [-] elite forbidden troops to protect Guo Peng, and follow him all the way to patrol the world until he is willing. until return.

Guo Peng was very unhappy when he learned about it.

He asked to reduce the number of people from 500 to 500, saying that he didn't need to bring too many people with him on the tour, otherwise the amount of food provided by the counties along the way would be too much, and he didn't need to spend so much.

In any case, Guo Jin would not allow so few people to accompany Guo Peng on tour. He felt that this was too dangerous, so he bargained with him, and finally decided on a plan for a thousand guards to accompany him.

Veteran generals Xu Chu and Dian Wei had to accompany them and could not leave even a single step.

"When my father was on the battlefield, you were still studying in school. Do you think that my father is 50 years old and can't fight anymore? My father has been exercising all the time. Now it is not difficult to mount a horse and charge! What are you worried about? "

Guo Peng is still not happy.

Guo Jin consoled with a bitter face.

"Father, although you have abdicated, you are still the pillar of the Wei Kingdom. You can't be troubled. 1000 people are the minimum amount. If you don't agree, I can only arrange for you to be armed with all the militias in the counties and counties along the way. Keeping you safe anytime, anywhere."
