Chapter 2488 Whose fault is the lack of education?
Liu Muzhi nodded: "This is human nature. As ordinary people, they only need to pay grain taxes and collect labor from the country. In their view, these are even forced by the country.
The ground crushed them."
Liu Yu said thoughtfully: "Yes, in fact, when demon thieves like Sun Enlu Xun were causing trouble in the past, I was thinking about this question. Why can the demon thieves win people's hearts with just a few small favors such as five buckets of rice? Let
Can the people ignore the country's favor and follow them to become enemies of the government, army and court? Or, as Tao Yuanming reported when he came back this time, the people of the Later Qin would rather trust a monk who could only recite sutras than trust their own emperor?"
Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "Jinu, what's wrong with you? You suddenly think about these things like the way of heaven. Do you also want to talk about Xuanxuan to get closer to the aristocratic family?"
Liu Yu sighed: "Fat man, I'm not joking about this, because I suddenly discovered that Tao Yuanming was not completely spreading rumors. There were aspects of the remarks spread among the people and soldiers that we had ignored before.
"
At this point, he paused: "My goal is the Northern Expedition. I believe that the Northern Expedition is not only to leave a name for me in history, but also to save the suffering Han people in the north who are ruled by the barbarians. It is also to save those who have suffered.
The rulers of my own tribe drove the barbarian people into the battlefield and died violently. But I suddenly discovered that maybe our own people would feel that my career had hurt them. If this problem is not handled well, the tragedy of Sima Yuanxian may happen again.
possible."
Liu Muzhi put away his smile and said seriously: "Actually, I have always wanted to talk to you about this matter, but you are bent on making great achievements in the Northern Expedition, and defeating Nanyan will also help you welcome Murong Lan back, so I won't
It’s too easy to speak, and I can only let the facts make you sober. You have also seen the current situation. The new immigrants arrived in Jiangbei, full of fear and confusion. They are not willing to be part of your Northern Expedition plan. Being able to come this time is also for those who
It was just forced by the high-ranking families, and those families were willing to cooperate with you this time, partly because you were afraid of destroying Wang Yuman's family, and secondly, because they felt that it would be profitable to occupy land in the name of farming in the north of the Yangtze River.
The picture is not in line with your original intention of the Northern Expedition. If you really want the Northern Expedition, they will probably stand against you."
"At that time, it will not only be Tao Yuanming who spreads rumors, but the family itself may use various reasons to refuse to cooperate. You have to consider this situation now. Even if Nan Yan attacks, should you use this as an excuse to send out a large-scale attack?
Nan Yan, you still have to think clearly."
Liu Yu said seriously: "I don't think about the Northern Expedition immediately. I just want to seize the time to manage Jiangbei and prepare for the future Northern Expedition. In fact, in the battle to destroy the country, if there is no internal problem in the enemy country and he wants to attack by force, the troops will be out of nowhere.
Secondly, even if the enemy country is united and united, it will be difficult to win. War, especially foreign war, requires great caution, and I will not send troops easily. However, before sending troops, what we have to do is to find a way to defeat the Jin Dynasty.
The people, at least the people in Jiangbei, should not have any resistance to the Northern Expedition. At least, I hope that all the people in Jiangbei will be as enthusiastic and excited about the Northern Expedition as we are in Jingkou, instead of resisting and resenting it."
Liu Muzhi sighed: "You just said that the people in Jingkou are happy to hear the war because everyone in Jingkou has hatred against the Hu people and dreams of fighting back to their hometown. But ordinary people don't have this hatred. How can you...
…”
Liu Yu said in a deep voice: "This requires the people to understand that the Northern Expedition was a concerted action of the whole country, and it was not to satisfy the ambitions of a certain emperor or powerful officials, nor to drive them to suffer and sacrifice, but to save the people of the north.
The Han people also want to protect their own lives and security today."
Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "You can't explain these big principles to the villagers. What they care about is just how the crops are growing today, what they will eat tomorrow, how much tax they have to pay during the autumn harvest, and how many days they have to serve the court this year.
, and also, how much land can be divided, how much food can be stored after a good harvest, and how to survive a famine."
Liu Yu nodded: "That's what ordinary farmers do think. In the past, when farmers from other places like Xie Tingfeng and Tieniu came to join the army, I talked to them and they were indeed thinking about this. So, first of all, we must
What they need to understand is that only when they have a country can they have a family, only when they have a family can they have land, and only when they have land can they produce food so that they can survive. This is the so-called national favor."
Liu Muzhi smiled and said: "That's why you can understand the truth by reading. A farmer who can't read a word doesn't understand these principles. It's like a two or three-year-old boy. It won't work if you try to teach them all kinds of adult rules.
Only when you are three or four years old and start reading the Three Character Classic and the disciple rules can you understand the basic principles of life. Now only the children of aristocratic families can receive such education. Even the nephews of our eight brothers in Beijing are still in their teens.
If you are illiterate, how can you understand this?"
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "Then tell me, why these things in education can only be enjoyed by a very small number of children of aristocratic families or scholars. Don't talk about them, just talk about you and me. Why have you been reading books since you were a child?
, why have I not learned to read since I was a child, so I can only rely on brute force to roam the countryside? If I hadn't met you later, I might not be able to read in this life. "
Liu Muzhi smiled bitterly and said: "Why are you mentioning this? I still remember that when I came out to show off my books, you beat me up for no reason. I said, why am I bothering you by reading a book?"
Liu Yu laughed: "You still remember this. Haven't I apologized to you earlier? However, there is one thing I have never told you, which is why I suddenly got angry at that time. That is my anger.
, because you have books to read and I don’t, which made me angry all of a sudden. We are also from Jingkou, why is this happening?"
The fat on Liu Muzhi's face trembled: "I still envy you for being so good at fighting, but I have been so fat since I was a child that I can't even walk without breathing. My slave, this world is full of all kinds of unfairness, isn't it?
It can be solved by human power."
Liu Yu's eyes flashed coldly: "Whether you can fight or not depends on your natural physique and acquired training. You can say it is God's arrangement, but reading can be done the day after tomorrow so that everyone can read.
, Just like you, although your health is not that good, the country still arranges training opportunities for you, and the Jingkou Fighting Competition also forces you to practice a few times. Then you tell me, the vast majority of people in the world cannot learn literature and study.
