Three Kingdoms: The Reverse Son of the Guan Family, Dragon Blessing Jingxiang

Danqu, which the Wei army had invested countless efforts and had high hopes for, was still breached overnight.

Wang Ping was still fighting stubbornly. He faced the attack of Wu Lan, Gao Xiang, and Wu Ban alone. He was already wounded and staggering, but he still fought risklessly.

Get out of the way - Wei Yan joined in, and subconsciously, Wu Lan and the others quickly moved out of the way.

Wei Yan's broadsword took the opportunity to slash Wang Ping's leg, creating a huge wound.

Wang Ping couldn't hold it any longer and knelt down on one knee.

Die--

With Wei Yan's shout, he was about to chop off Wang Ping's forehead with his sword, but at this moment, a Wait a minute came from behind.

Wei Yan turned around and saw Liu Bei and Fazheng coming behind him. It turned out... Wei Yan was not the only one who attacked Daqu at night. Liu Bei and Fazheng came with three thousand soldiers to support them.

Lord? Xiaozhi? Wei Yan said in surprise.

Liu Bei nodded towards him as a signal, and then quickly walked to Wang Ping.

Wang Ping raised his head. From Wei Yan's words, he knew that the person coming must be Liu Bei, the new master of Shu. He glared at Liu Bei angrily.

Liu Bei looked pitiful and said sincerely: I heard that General Wang is the leading warrior among the tribesmen. He is both wise and brave, and I admire him. I would like to ask General Wang to help me to prosper the Han Dynasty together? What do you think?

Hahahaha... Wang Ping laughed, supported the ground with his sword, dragged his injured leg, slowly walked towards Liu Bei, and said with a sad smile: Mr. Cao has given me the kindness of knowing me, I can't repay it to Mr. Cao. I have been entrusted by General Zhengxi to lead the people on a new path, so... I only have this path...

Liu Bei thought he was going to surrender, so he relaxed a little. Unexpectedly, Wang Ping had another purpose in closing the distance between him and Liu Bei. Wang Ping suddenly used force on his hand, as if he had exhausted all his strength, and suddenly thrust his sword towards Liu Bei.

At this time, Wei Yan, Wu Lan, Gao Xiang, and Wu Ban were shocked...

Liu Bei was also surprised.

Only Fazheng, who was closest to Liu Bei and reacted quickly, immediately stepped in front of Liu Bei. Wang Ping's sword had already injured Fazheng. At the same time... Wei Yan, Wu Lan, Gao Xiang and others all drew out their swords. He planned to chop this Wang Ping into minced meat.

On the other hand, Wang Ping raised the corner of his mouth, showed a smile, and said intermittently: Dong Cao appreciates me. As a minister of Wei, I will die as a ghost of Wei. I seek benevolence and get benevolence!

Having said that, he did not resist and went to die without hesitation...

Seeing that Wang Ping was about to be chopped into pieces, Fazheng covered his wound. He said in an extremely weak voice to Liu Bei: Wait a minute... This is a loyal and righteous man, and the Lord can use him!

Even though he was wounded by a sword, Fazheng was still thinking about his good friend Liu Bei.

I still want to find help for my good friend Liu Bei to revive the Han Dynasty.

And this Wang Ping, he is not just a person, but also an extremely important branch of the Ji people tribe. Fazheng cannot let him die here. If he dies here, the Ji people tribe...that Danqu, that Sanba The hidden danger is deeply buried.

Liu Bei's eyes only met Fazheng for one moment, and he already understood the profound meaning of Fazheng.

Everyone stop—

Following Liu Bei's voice, the weapons of Wei Yan and others were pressed against Wang Ping's neck. Wang Ping's head was just a hair away.

Liu Bei sighed with emotion at this time: General Wang is a Wei general. Doesn't everything he did just show his loyalty? Such a righteous man? How can I, Liu Bei, bear to kill him?

Take him down and call the medical officer to heal his wounds. Such a loyal person, no matter what his position is, is my honored guest, Liu Bei. You must not neglect it——

this…

Following Liu Bei's words, Wei Yan, Wu Lan, Gao Xiang, Wu Ban and others were shocked.

Wang Ping was also shocked.

He didn't expect that his act of assassinating Liu Bei would be taken away by Liu Bei with such a light sentence. He didn't mean to blame him at all, and even mentioned his high righteousness!

At this time, Wang Ping's mind was spinning violently...

Cao Cao's sentence Every brave soldier under his command, their life is not lowly and Liu Bei's sentence Everything he did just now, doesn't it show his loyalty? Such a righteous man? How can I, Liu Bei, bear to kill!

Two sentences began to alternate and collide rapidly in Wang Ping's mind.

Wang Ping was a Taoist with a low level of education, but he had heard about Cao Cao's massacre of the city and Liu Bei's benevolent and righteous actions.

I even heard that when Liu Bei was the Pingyuan Order, an assassin wanted to assassinate Liu Bei, but Liu Bei received the assassin sincerely, which made the assassin couldn't help but be moved, and told the truth about being instructed to assassinate Liu Bei.

Wang Ping had never read a book, so he naturally didn't understand what the right person will get more help, the wrong person will get less help, but inexplicably, he was affected by Liu Bei's charm just because of his words and actions, which made Wei Chen and Wei Chen in his heart. Wei Hun's thoughts began to waver.

have to say…

Liu Bei was born with his unique charm, that unique charm of climbing up from the bottom step by step, going through hardships, but always treating others with kindness and kindness...

Liu Bei was born at the bottom, and he can best understand the hardships of these people at the bottom!

Liu...Liu... Wang Ping murmured and opened his mouth, looking...especially incredible.

Liu Bei waved his hand, Don't say anything. The top priority is General Wang's injury, and Xiaozhi's injury... everything will be discussed after you have been treated!

Having said this, Liu Bei looked back at Fazheng and saw Fazheng covering his wound. He was also looking at him and nodded towards him.

Between good gay friends, they can often understand each other with just one look or movement.

But at this moment...

Dong...dong... Fazheng seemed to have been unable to breathe, and he fainted... his body fell heavily to the ground.

Liu Bei's eyes suddenly widened. He hugged Fazheng, the worry on his cheeks was clear, Xiao Zhi, Xiao Zhi... Quickly call the medical officer, call the medical officer -

In this voice, the sincere concern for his subordinates could not be hidden or faked, and all of this was reflected in Wang Ping's eyes.

Not long after, Fazheng and Wang Pingping were taken down to have their wounds healed. Liu Bei personally carried Fazheng on his back with a worried expression.

For a time, only Wei Yan, Wu Lan, Gao Xiang, Wu Ban and others were left in the bustling official office just now.

Wei Yan held his chin and walked to the place where Fa Zheng fainted. He murmured: Although Fa Zheng was hit by a sword, Fa Xiaozhi's injury doesn't seem serious! Could it be...

Thinking of this, Wei Yan chirped again. He raised his head slightly and glanced at Fa's figure being carried away, and then said softly: Is this Fa's filial piety just an act? Is it just for Wang Ping to see? ?”

For a moment, Wei Yan thought about it.

Lord, Fazheng... now there is another Zhang Fei, but each one of them has a hundred evil intentions!

On the other hand, Gao Xiang and Wu Ban were discussing behind Wei Yan.

Why did my lord suddenly appear here?

The only one who knows all the answers is Zhang Fei's general-Wu Lan!

However, at this moment, he was looking at his nose with his eyes, and his nose was looking at his heart... He felt like he could see through but not tell.

He knew very well in his heart that this battle had not ended since the three generals drunkenly deceived Zhang He!

…

…

Mianshui Villa, this is Huang Yueying's home.

But... now it seems that this place looks more like Zhang Xingcai's home.

In fact, this winter, with the Little Ice Age raging, Jiangling City had snowed for several days. The heavy snow crushed hundreds of houses in Jiangling City and greatly affected the progress of building the new city. Mi Fang had to quickly move from Xiangyang to Xiangyang. I rushed back to the city to deal with a lot of troublesome things.

only…

The more severe the weather, the more different this Mianshui Villa is revealed. At this moment, under the guidance of Zhang Xingcai, Huang Yueying, Huang Zhong, and Xia Houjuan walked into this Villa one after another.

Looking at the entire villa, countless people are working hard in each workshop...sometimes concentrating, sometimes chatting.

Heavy snow, natural disasters, winter, cold, these terrible words do not seem to affect the chances of their lives.

Seeing the endless stream of people...

Xia Houjuan couldn't help but ask when he saw people sweating profusely in the workshops.

How many people are there in Mianshui Villa?

Zhang Xingcai suppressed the smile at the corner of his mouth and said truthfully to his mother Xia Houjuan: There were already more than 6,000 people there before, most of them were former refugees and beggars. Everyone who wants to enter this villa needs to be screened for three generations and all kinds of things. The relationship still needs someone to guarantee it... Now it seems that the number of people is even greater, I am afraid it has exceeded 8,000!

So many... Xia Houjuan was shocked by the numbers he heard.

You know, this is just a villa, but there are 8,000 people gathered in it, which is already the size of a small county town.

But it seems that this Mianshui Villa not only has workshops, but also a place where these people live, a school, a dining hall, a horse pen... and even a farm.

Although it is winter, there are still sheds set up in the farm, which seem to be growing fruits and vegetables that are not cold-resistant.

There is the sound of reading loudly in the school;

The cooks in the canteen are preparing meals for nearly 8,000 people at noon...

One of the horses in the stable was also fed fat and strong...

In the workshop, each craftsman is like a line, each person is just repeating a fixed process, and at the end of this line, large or small ordnance manufacturing is constantly being completed.

The entire Mianshui Villa performs their duties, and different people are doing different processes... in an orderly manner. Although everyone looks very busy, the expressions of satisfaction on their cheeks can be clearly seen.

In this chaotic world where white bones are exposed in the wild and there are no roosters crowing for thousands of miles, it is so satisfying to have work, food, clothing and a place to live.

Not to mention... the workers of Mianshui Villa can still save money, the children of these workers can still go to school, and can continue to live such a comfortable and peaceful life in Mianshui Villa when they grow up. Think about it... A burst of relief and happiness.

After all, people in this era are still suffering too much...

Only after suffering hardships and living in the open can we realize that this Mianshui Villa is a paradise. Even if we have to work for six hours a day, and even if we don’t have a few days of rest in a month, it is still paradise, and it is a blessing!

The deeper they go, the more Huang Yueying feels...

It’s not that I’m impressed by the size of this workshop…

She was thinking, recalling the day she married Zhuge Liang, the two of them were in the bridal chamber among the flowers and candles... chatting heart-to-heart about ideals, ambitions, and the prosperous age he imagined.

For a moment, Huang Yueying couldn't help but murmur in her heart.

——Isn't this the ideal state that Kong Ming always mentioned to me? 』

——Let this world with broken etiquette be reshaped, so that everyone has clothes to wear, everyone has food to eat, and everyone has work to do, and establish the ideal peaceful and prosperous era of political leadership and harmony... At least, Guan Yunqi is here in Mianshui Villa did it! 』

The more Huang Yueying watched, the more emotional she became...

But Huang Zhong couldn't help but ask: Did the crossbows that killed Cao Wei's 35,000 soldiers in that hour come from the hands of these coolies?

Huang Zhong originally asked a question casually, but he never thought that Zhang Xingcai paused after hearing this. Then she quickly turned around and said seriously: They are not coolies. Brother Yun Qi said, They have a brand new name.

What? Huang Zhong was curious.

Zhang Xingcai blurted out: Workers, brother Yun Qi said they are all workers, they can also be called craftsmen!

Worker? Craftsman? Huang Yueying and Huang Zhong looked at each other, as if they were a little surprised by this title...

Zhang Xingcai explained: According to Brother Yun Qi, the so-called workers refer to those who rely on manual labor or skilled labor to get paid... They do not own any production resources and can only get paid through labor!

Zhang Xingcai gave a brief summary...

Of course, when Guan Lin told her about the concept of workers, she was also confused.

However... Huang Yueying seems to have realized something, In Guoyu, there is an article Zhiguan written by Zhou Dynasty, which says: When the enemy's guests arrive, Guan Yin will tell... The people are offering rice, the Sima is displaying the cud, and the workers are displaying their carts. . All officials treat guests as if they are at home. Xunzi·Ruxiao says...Set up rules and lay them out for later use. A gentleman is not as good as a worker...

She directly cited Guoyu and Xunzi as a basis, and Huang Yueying's tone became much more certain, The workers Yun Qi mentioned are probably the same as the workers described in this book.

actually…

Regarding the topic of workers, Zhang Xingcai and Huang Yueying only experienced one-sidedness.

And to distinguish whether a person is a worker?

It does not depend on what kind of labor is performed, but on whether the individual occupies the means of production, has no land or tools, and makes a living by selling labor force!

Of course, Huang Yueying has not yet realized this level. She silently wrote down Zhang Xingcai's words and the worker's theory, planning to discuss it in detail with Kong Ming when she returns to Bashu.

What she didn't know was that in the previous answer sheet, Guan Lin had explained to Zhuge Liang what the working class was, how to vigorously develop the working class, and how to use the working class to create a new and irreversible force to overthrow Cao Wei. 's rule.

Okay, we are workers, not coolies...

Huang Zhong also followed Zhang Xingcai's words and changed his tune.

Zhang Xingcai then gave up, because he had not met Huang Chengyan and Liu Ye yet, so as he went further into Mianshui Villa, Zhang Xingcai began to explain the magical weapons one by one.

Old General Huang, the crossbow you just mentioned that killed 35,000 Cao's troops in one moment was this one... Its range could reach three hundred steps, and its power was amazing... In the previous battle in Xiangyang, it was our Mianshui Villa, It took more than 20 days to create more than 30,000 crossbows and millions of crossbow arrows... This is the feat of the thief general Pang De, whose army of more than 30,000 people was shot by thousands of arrows in an hour, and no one survived. !”

Following Zhang Xingcai's introduction, Huang Zhong's eyes stayed on the strange crossbow...

His eyes gradually narrowed.

But before he could take a closer look, Zhang Xingcai introduced it again.

Old General Huang, look at this big guy again. This is called the Eight Ox Crossbow. It has a range of up to 800 steps. The crossbow bolts it shoots can be buried deep into the city wall. When attacking Xiangyang City, they relied on this... No need for a ladder at all. It can be easily done. Let’s board the city first! This Eight Ox Crossbow is the invention I admire the most from Brother Yun Qi!”

Hmm...the three-hundred-step range of the crossbow.

The eight-hundred-step range of the Eight Ox Crossbow.

As Zhang Xingcai explained, Huang Zhong recalled another past event, a past event that was unbearable to look back on.

It didn't take three hundred steps or eight hundred steps. Once upon a time, Huang Zhong was only a few steps away from saving his young son:

——Twenty steps!

There are only twenty steps left!

At this time, Zhang Xingcai's voice chanted again, Actually, if the wind is favorable, the crossbows will take more than 300 steps. If the wind is favorable, the eight oxen crossbows will take more than 800 steps... If the wind direction is used, their power can actually be even stronger. !”

Zhang Xingcai's original intention was to introduce Guan Lin's great invention...

But at this moment, her voice seemed to be slicing Huang Zhong's heart, making him feel heartbroken... and all he could think about was the twenty steps

The Twenty Steps that almost saved his son!

…

…

The dim shadows of the remaining lamps swayed in the strong winter wind.

It seems because it’s too fast…

A large flag with the word Wei hanging on the top of the city wall of Danqu had no time to change.

But during this time, Danqu has changed its owner.

Wang Ping's wounds had been bandaged by the doctor sent there. There were no extra guards outside his room, but a group of people surrounded him.

These people were recruited by Liu Bei when he entered Shu in the past and were sent by Liu Zhang to Jiameng Pass...

At that time, Liu Bei spread benevolence and righteousness wherever he passed through Bashu, and won the favor of many people there, including ethnic minorities such as the Di people and some Mi tribes.

Some of the men from these ethnic groups took refuge with Liu Bei and served as generals and soldiers under Liu Bei!

Liu Bei specially asked them to come to see Wang Ping.

In name, it was to appease him, but in fact... he wanted these fools to persuade Wang Ping on his behalf.

The words of my good gay friend Fazheng are still fresh in my mind.

——This Wang Ping can be used! 』

At this moment, a man talked in Wang Ping's ears: It's true. Uncle Liu abolished the poll tax in the entire Bashu region and promoted the sharing of land per acre... This is equivalent to that from now on, no matter how many children we have, we will be able to live together. There is no need to pay taxes. Only landowners who own land and acres need to pay taxes...

Another man added: Originally, I thought that after Liu Zhang abolished the preferential treatment given to our tribe by King Qin Zhaoxiang, it would be good for Uncle Liu to restore our preferential treatment. I never thought that he not only restored our preferential treatment, he was simply right to us. Our preferential treatment is even worse... We live as hunters, we have no land at all, and we don't need to pay taxes at all... Also, is there anything better than this?

What's more... Another person said: Uncle Liu Huang is really very good to the people. This is not just an act. Those big clans are hoarding money and prices are skyrocketing, so he found a way to set up a commercial department to stabilize prices. Among those meritorious deeds The ministers asked him for land and acres, so he issued a decree to suppress these people and finally gave the acres to those in need... Most importantly, he... he didn't want us to move! I heard that Cao Wei moved his disciples Of the ethnic groups, not one of the ten can make it to Guanzhong alive...

At this moment, words from fellow villagers came to Wang Ping's ears.

Originally, he was shaken because of Liu Bei's words, because of Liu Bei's actions, because of Liu Bei's concern for his subordinates... because of the charm that exuded from the inside out.

If we talk about...Cao Cao's words, Every brave soldier under his command, their life is not cheap...it is more like the value that Cao Cao places on his brave soldiers and soldiers.

But Liu Bei, what he values ​​​​is completely different, not the bravery of the soldiers, not the soldiers, what he cares about most is the suffering people!

It is precisely because of this different kind of care...

Let his whole body exude an extremely gorgeous glow!

At this time, the voices of people around were heard again.

Clan leader... Patriarch, please surrender to Uncle Liu Huang. Maybe he is not as powerful as Cao Cao yet, but... Cao Cao is strong, and it has nothing to do with us. When Uncle Liu becomes stronger, our tribe can all live a good life!

Patriarch, I still have an eighty-year-old mother in my family. We really can't move away. Let us stay here in Dangqu with peace of mind and be under the rule of Uncle Liu Huang!

Patriarch, actually... there has been a lot of news recently. Cao Cao suffered repeated setbacks in Jingzhou and Huainan. Many Five Pecks of Rice believers regretted following their leader and joining Cao Cao. Times have changed... Times have changed!

With these sounds…

Wang Ping's heart trembled and wavered again and again.

Finally, Wang Ping stood up slowly. Because his leg was injured and wrapped in a bandage, he was leaning on a wooden stick.

You guys wait, let me... let me go pay a visit to this Uncle Liu Huang.

…
