The most powerful general in the Three Kingdoms

September 197 AD.

September is the day of harvest. After the hot weather has subsided, civilians can be seen harvesting everywhere from Jizhou to beyond the Great Wall.

Jia Xu said:"Lord, this is a good harvest year."

Zhou Cheng nodded.

At this time, I saw Zhou Cheng's military flag and troops passing by.

The villagers in the field, under the supervision of the organization, immediately went to the roadside to greet him.

Although it is a monitoring organization, there is no fear on the faces of the people, and there is no hatred in their eyes.

Maybe they really hate Zhou Cheng.

However, now they have adapted to Zhou Cheng's new system and are grateful for Zhou Cheng's grace.

In the Han Dynasty, a strong man did not begin military service until he was twenty-three years old.

This provision also has its inherent meaning.

Because he only became a young man at his twenties, he could farm independently.

Farmers' life is difficult, their fields are limited, and they cannot be productive. Only through frugality can they save surplus grain.

Therefore, there is a saying that"three years of farming, one year of savings".

Because, according to general circumstances, it is absolutely impossible to have a bumper harvest every year.

In an average of three years, there will always be a famine year. When a famine year comes, all savings will be gone.

If there is no shortage of food for three years, there should be two years of savings in six years, and three years of savings in nine years.

As long as there is no war, it will never last for more than nine years, nor will it last for more than three years.

A strong man, twenty years old, can make a living independently, but if he is required to serve in the military for the country, his family burden should be taken into consideration.

Zhou Cheng has done very well in terms of welfare benefits for soldiers.

Although every male in the military camp must participate, the tax on the land is reduced. At the same time, after farming, rations will be provided regardless of years of disaster or famine. The people of Jizhou only need to work as required and do not need to worry about being unable to support their families.

Moreover, counties and counties will use grain as compensation for conscripting labor. During slack periods, they can participate in labor. No matter how hard the family's life is, as long as they are willing to exert their strength, it will not be so hard that they can't open the pot.

Compared with other princes in the world, Zhou Cheng is already considered generous.

It is a blessing for the people to follow a lord who is generous and not stingy with rewards.

"Unexpectedly, the place ruled by Zhou Cheng would have such a scene"

"Surprisingly true"

"If the whole world can have such a grand scene, why worry about the uncertainty of the world.

This time Zhou Cheng wanted to return to the outside of the Great Wall, so he invited some scribes and students to visit outside the Great Wall. seeing is believing.

Zhou Cheng was too lazy to brag about his achievements to scribes and students.

The best way to prove his governance ability is to show the grand harvest in front of the world.

A bumper harvest not only means good weather this year.

At the same time, it represents the hard work of the people here, and behind the hard work is effective governance. The people did not abandon their land and flee elsewhere because of war or tyranny.

Looking around, it's all golden. Even those who don't work hard with their limbs and don't distinguish between grains will be shocked by what they see.

This time, Guo Jia also took a car to go outside the Great Wall.

Although he did not accept Zhou Cheng's invitation to become Zhou Cheng's adviser, Guo Jia also participated in the 'research' invited by Cai Yong this time.

Reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles.

Because of lack of understanding, arrogance and prejudice arise.

People all over the world always sneered at Zhou Cheng, thinking that because Zhou Cheng was a moth thief, the people in his territory would be in dire straits and their lives would be precarious.

However, the harvest scene in front of him was a slap in the face.

Nowadays, nowhere in the north, Central Plains and other places is like Jizhou.

Moreover, this was based on Zhou Cheng's continuous campaign.

We fought for a year last year, but this year we did not fall behind in farming. It is incredible and unbelievable.

Guo Jia knew this was Zhou Cheng's 'means'.

By showing the"harvest scene", he changed the views of scribes and students towards him.

It is easy to conquer the world, but difficult to govern it.

In extraordinary times, military law can be used to govern, but once things stabilize, civil law is needed.

The executors of civil laws cannot be soldiers

……

All the way from Jizhou to beyond the Great Wall.

Everywhere he passed was a scene of harvest.

The farmland is golden and can be seen with the naked eye.

The scribes and students who accompanied him had a clear change in their views on Zhou Cheng.

This was the third step for Zhou Cheng to attract scribes and students.

The first step is to establish a Boya Museum, under the banner of cultural and artistic exchanges, and to use Cai Yong's reputation as a great scholar in the world to attract traffic.

The second step is to establish a museum, use rare ancient books as bait, and then use the gimmick of 'scribes appraisal' to expand the influence again and attract more people.

The third step is to let these scribes and students see Zhou Cheng's governance ability in the name of 'research and study'.

Changing the stereotypes of people around the world cannot happen overnight.

Force could cut off the heads of scribes or bring them into temporary submission.

However, force is only temporary after all. If these scribes find the opportunity, they will betray at any time.

Therefore, we must let them change their views on Zhou Cheng from the bottom of their hearts and actively defect to Zhou Cheng's command.
