"Among you, who is the leader of the bandits, stand up and let me take a look." Xu Chu said casually.
Li Ji saw a lot of thieves looking at him, and he knew that if he wanted to keep it secret at this time, then don't count on it. He could only walk forward slowly. From Xu Chu, he felt a huge pressure.
"General, the villain is the leader of these thieves. If you offend the general, I hope the general will forgive you." Li Ji cupped his hands and said with a slightly trembling voice.
Ordinary thieves can't keep calm when facing life and death. The same thing is true for Li Ji. He has made a lot of efforts to get to his current position step by step, but he fell into the hands of the Xuzhou cavalry , he didn't complain any more, everything can only be said to be bad luck.
"Well, that's right, you're pretty good at talking. Come with me. This time, I can only say that you were unlucky. When you robbed pedestrians, you met Marquis Wen's team." Xu Chu sighed.
Li Ji wanted to cry. If such a thing hadn't happened, he would still be the leader of the bandits in the cottage. Now, he has become a prisoner for no reason. The difference in treatment between the two is really huge. too big.
Li Ji didn't want to be a prisoner, he wanted to live a free life, but the situation in front of him made Li Ji understand that only by better cooperating with the generals in front of him can he have a chance to survive, otherwise, he will die.
However, what Xu Chu said about Wenhou's team made Li Ji's heart skip a beat. Could it be that Wenhou is in this team, if that is the case, then there is nothing to complain about.
Lu Bu has a great reputation in Yanzhou and Xuzhou, because the Xuzhou Army and the Yanzhou Army spared no effort in eradicating bandits.
This kind of action gave Lv Bu more good reputation. In Xuzhou and Yanzhou, the people have more respect when they talk about Lv Bu, because when Lv Bu treats the people, he has a quality that ordinary princes do not have. .
After the extermination of bandits, the people can live a stable life. Many princes are aware of such a thing, but what kind of actions do they take when dealing with bandits?
Unless it was an emergency, they would not dispatch the lieutenant generals to exterminate the bandits, because the dispatch of the lieutenant soldiers would be accompanied by the consumption of food, grass and materials. Wouldn't it be a good thing to save these food, grass and materials.
As for the life and death of ordinary people, it is not that important in the eyes of the ruler.
Putting the same thing on Lv Bu gave people a completely different feeling. When Lv Bu treated the thieves, he took extra care.
It is precisely because of this that Lu Bu's reputation among the people has gradually become louder.
Even the people in nearby counties and counties will migrate to Lu Bu's rule after they can't live anymore.
The current vigor displayed under Lu Bu's rule is beyond the imagination of other princes. If this situation continues, Lu Bu's prestige in Yanzhou and Xuzhou will reach an unmatched level in a few years.
Chapter 619 Marquis Wen Is In The Army?
Just the support from the common people will allow Lu Bu to gain a foothold among the princes.
At any time, Lu Bu did not ignore the power of the people, but in Lu Bu's view, it was simply impossible for him to fight against the aristocratic families and seek more benefits for the people by relying on his current strength.
These things can only be done step by step. However, what Lu Bu did not expect was that the suppression of bandits could gain so much popular support.
They are also the people of the Han Dynasty, who have experienced too many rebellions by thieves and bandits.
In fact, in many cases, the common people are extremely disgusted with the arrival of thieves, but they do not have more power to choose in the face of such things.
And the thieves don't pay that much attention when they plunder. Even when facing the aristocratic families, these thieves will be more cautious, because there are guards among the aristocratic families, and the actions of these guards can give the robbers a lot of money. The thieves brought a lot of casualties.
In such a process, the thieves who were born in the common people turned their attention to the weak and weak common people.
Aristocratic families also don't pay much attention to the life and death of the people. As long as these thieves don't affect their interests more, they will not take any action.
Of course, if thieves who don't know life and death offend the family, these family members will let the thieves understand what is the background of a wealthy family.
Among the aristocratic families, there is no shortage of officials. To wipe out some thieves, sometimes it may be a matter of a word from the officials of their family.
In such a situation, it is still the ordinary people who suffer in the end, and the aristocratic and powerful families still live a chic life.
Lu Bu, who is in charge of Xuzhou and Yanzhou, would not have a better understanding of these situations, but in the case of insufficient strength, Lu Bu will not offend and turn against the aristocratic family.
Because such a turn of events brought the biggest shock, step by step, gradually increase their own strength and influence, and when the two sides meet each other one day, Lu Bu will have enough foundation.
In Lu Bu's view, the so-called aristocratic families, their development methods are difficult to be recognized. When the number of aristocratic families in the Han Dynasty increases, Lu Bu is very clear about what it means to ordinary people.
These aristocratic families mostly choose to embezzle the interests of the people to strengthen the power of the family. Although there are battles among the aristocratic families, their struggles cannot be called fierce.
And if you get benefits from the people, you can avoid more troubles. Who makes the people weak, and when facing oppression, they can only choose to be patient.
The fields in the hands of the common people, in the eyes of the aristocratic and powerful families, are the capital for their family power.
How the people will live after losing their land is not something that people from aristocratic families can take care of.
This has also resulted in more and more fields being controlled by aristocratic families, and it is even rare for ordinary people to own fields.
It is the most surprising thing that the people are oppressed in this way, if they do nothing else.
Lu Bu, who came from the future world, is clear about the power of the people. When the power of the people is gathered together, the fighting power that can be erupted is far beyond the comparison of the aristocratic and powerful families.
It's just that now, the resistance of the Han people has been tyrannically suppressed, and it will be difficult for bandits and bandits to come to the fore after all.
No matter what ruler it is, it is actually inseparable from the people. After losing the power of the people, can it be called a country?
The aristocratic family has a great influence, and can even control the court. Under such a situation, even if the emperor wants to seek benefits for the people, it will become difficult.
Change does not happen overnight, Lu Bu will start from small aspects gradually.
"Are you depressed? You are also the most unlucky bandit you will ever meet. If you spread the word, it will definitely make other bandits laugh." Xu Chu joked.
The depression in Li Ji's heart can be imagined. After experiencing such a thing, it is very depressed in itself, but there is Xu Chu who has such words beside him.
When facing Xu Chu, Li Ji did not dare to disobey in the slightest. This is a general in the Xuzhou army. In front of thieves like them, he is a superior existence.
"The general is just joking, it is also a villain's honor to be able to rely on the general." Li Ji hurriedly cupped his hands.
Looking at the duplicity of Li Ji, Xu Chu laughed and said, "No matter what you think, when you meet Marquis Wen, be honest, otherwise, I will be the first to kill you."
"Wen, Marquis Wen? Marquis Wen is in the army?" Li Ji asked in surprise.
Xu Chu laughed and said, "I didn't expect that among the thieves, there were some who knew Marquis Wen."
The surrounding cavalry burst into bursts of laughter, looking at Li Ji with more ridicule.
Thieves and the like are in themselves contemptible, not to mention what kind of actions these thieves usually have, the soldiers in the army are also clear, and it is very necessary for the soldiers to wipe out more thieves .
Xuzhou Army and Yanzhou Army wiped out bandits, but the prestige of the two armies among the people has been greatly improved. Walking among the people in ordinary times can also make the soldiers in the army show their proud emotions.
Such a situation was unimaginable before Lu Bu came to Xuzhou.
The relationship between the common people and the soldiers in the army is not as friendly as imagined. The common people are weak. After becoming soldiers in the army, the common people have rampant capital in front of ordinary people. When treating the common people, It is inevitable that there will be arrogance and domineering.
It's just that such things are not allowed in the Xuzhou army, because this order has made Lu Bu reap the hearts of the soldiers.
As Lu Bu said, many soldiers in the army were also from poor people. Since the soldiers in the army were from them, what reason do they have to look down on ordinary people? Are there still people who look down on themselves?
Such words are recognized by the officers and men of the army.
Soldiers who were born in the common people have special emotions when they treat the common people. They serve in the army not only because of the good treatment in the Xuzhou army, but also because they have the responsibility to protect the homeland behind them.
After making the relationship between the common people and the soldiers in the army closer, it will be of great help to the long-term development of the soldiers in the army.
"To tell you the truth, Marquis Wen is in the army. It can be said that you thieves are honored to meet Marquis Wen. When you meet other people in the future, you can brag about it." Xu Chu laughed.
Chapter 620 Dangerous Thieves Industry
Hearing this, Li Ji was shocked. Lu Bu was a famous existence in Yanzhou and Xuzhou. It was unimaginable to see Lu Bu.
The point is that this incident happened to a thief.
"Is this true?" Li Ji asked in astonishment.
"Follow me and come here. After seeing Marquis Wen, you must not be rude, otherwise even if Marquis Wen doesn't care, the general will." Xu Chu urged.
It can be said that it is the greatest honor for a bandit leader to meet Lu Bu, who is the most powerful among the princes.
Normally, even for powerful thieves, it would be impossible for them to get a chance to meet Lu Bu.
The road to Yanzhou is not so close. In such a wilderness, seeing a force of bandits, Lu Bu was curious, and it is possible. Seeing the leader of the bandits is also possible for the surrounding situation. understand.
To be the leader among the thieves, the thieves must be in control of the surrounding situation.
If not, wouldn't it be very dangerous to want to last longer.
"Don't worry, general, don't worry, general." Li Ji said quickly, feeling a little excited in his heart, seeing a powerful existence like Marquis Wen was indeed unimaginable for a bandit.
As Xu Chu said before, after this incident, he will have the capital to brag when he meets other people in the future.
"My lord, the leader of the bandits is here." Xu Chu got off his horse and said.
Lu Bu casually glanced at Li Ji and said, "Are you the leader of the bandits?"
"Wen, Marquis Wen, the villain is the leader." Li Ji knelt down on the ground.
When facing Lu Bu, you can really feel how strong the power emanating from Lu Bu is. If you want to have other thoughts when facing Lu Bu, it is a great challenge for the psychological quality of a bandit .
Seeing Li Jicheng's frightened expression, Lu Bu asked, "How long have you been here?"
"Marquis Wen, the villain is here for only one month." Li Ji hurriedly replied.
Lu Bu nodded slightly. He had only been entrenched for less than a month. In addition, this place is indeed a bit remote. It is possible that it was not discovered. tolerated.
The thieves ravaging the surrounding area will have a great impact on the lives of the people, and the actions of the thieves can make many people homeless.
"That's right, you are indeed quite courageous. Now under the rule of this Marquis, the bandits cannot survive, and you can still lead the bandits to plunder here." Lu Bu said with a smile.
Lv Bu's smile seemed so terrifying to Li Ji, especially after learning of Lv Bu's identity, the fear in his heart was undeniable. In front of Lv Bu, how dare he, a bandit leader, be more presumptuous.
"Marquis Wen, please forgive me. The villain had no choice but to do this." Li Ji kowtowed like pounding garlic.
Lu Bu snorted coldly and said, "But anyone who becomes a bandit has their excuses. Have you ever thought about how this will affect the lives of the people?"
Li Ji couldn't say anything other than nodding his head. Could it be that he wanted to argue in front of Lu Bu?
Being a bandit is inherently full of dangers, especially in Yanzhou and Xuzhou, the accompanying danger is often great, because Lu Bu's attitude towards bandits is very different from other princes up.
Li Ji really wants to say, I don't want to become a bandit in Yanzhou, it's just the situation that compels me.
"Since you have surrendered, this Marquis will not take your life. If you reform well in the future, you may become a commoner. The life of the people under this Marquis' rule is not comparable to that of other princes. As long as you put in enough effort If you have more, you will get more," Lu Bu said.
The life of the common people is not easy. How many people fall into bandits is forced by life. If you see bandits and kill them all, it is unrealistic. Just like the Yellow Turban in Montenegro, which claims to have millions of people, its existence is for Yuan Shao could even have an immeasurable impact. Could it be that Yuan Shao had the ambition to kill all the Yellow Turbans in Heishan?
After the bandits are wiped out, these bandits will become members of the captive team and participate in labor. If they die, they have no other value. Living is different. Contributing to the development of the rule is also the same as before. Be the punishment of thieves.
This method has gradually become known to the thieves in Xuzhou and Yanzhou. When they encounter army officers and soldiers to suppress them, under normal circumstances, the thieves are more cooperative, because they know that they will confront the army officers and soldiers head-on. It is difficult to succeed at all, so it is better to behave well.
After surrendering, at least life is guaranteed, and after some labor, they can live on.
Quan assumed that he was working for Lu Bu. After thinking like this, in fact, after these bandits were captured alive, they didn't have any more resentment towards Lu Bu.
Being thieves is full of dangers. Life in the cottage is not as carefree as imagined. They still have to work hard for a living, and sometimes they even have to endure hunger.
It doesn't matter how the thieves in other places live, the key is that the thieves living under Lu Bu's rule are sometimes so miserable.
Just Lu Bu's attitude towards the thieves can make the thieves in Yanzhou and Xuzhou complain endlessly.
The monarch has such courage, and the soldiers in the army are so tough in ordinary confrontation. They live under Lu Bu's rule, and the pressure is really too great.
Li Ji really wanted to escape, because he was the leader of the bandits. If he had someone under his command, he could continue to enjoy a good life. What will happen.
The thieves under him have lost their courage even before fighting. Fighting against the cavalry of the Xuzhou army is not something that the thieves are capable of.
Lv Bu, who has a fierce reputation, has a great reputation among the thieves in Xuzhou and Yanzhou. If he wants to do more when fighting against Lv Bu, it is far from enough to rely on the strength of the thieves.
Lu Bu's actions like this brought the support of the people in Yanzhou and Xuzhou. It is not what the people want to see. They don't want to be disturbed by bandits in their ordinary lives.
If there are no more thieves and bandits under the rule, it will be a very good thing for the lives of the people.
Chapter 621
However, thieves and bandits will never be lacking after all. The key is how the monarch treats bandits.
"It is said that the bandits' cottages are generally relatively wealthy. Take me to have a look." Lu Bu said.
It was getting late at this time, it would be inappropriate to continue on the road, and Lu Bu was also curious about this cottage, if possible, the soldiers in the army could rest in the cottage.
Li Ji nodded in agreement, and hurried to the front to lead the way.
Normally, the cottages do not lack money and rice, but the situation in Li Ji's cottage is obviously different.
The cottage, located halfway up the mountain, does not appear to be large in scale, and at first glance, the cottage was built temporarily, and there was no technical content at all when it was built.
It is also difficult for such a cottage to have more resistance to the attack of the lieutenant generals.
