Zhou Yu was silent in his heart. He had long known that Liu Bei might be very difficult to deal with, but after seeing him in person, he felt even more horrified.
Zhou Yu thought silently and sighed in his heart.
It is indeed difficult for aristocratic families to be considerate of the people, and it is even more difficult for aristocratic families to restrain their methods and appear upright. But no matter how difficult it is, it is probably extremely easy compared to the strength Liu Bei is showing now.
What the aristocratic family seeks is survival, a better survival, not destruction. Under Liu Bei's absolutely strong position, the goodwill of the aristocratic family must be shown. Without this goodwill, there is no way to survive.
It is precisely because of the goodwill of this powerful force that the family's behavior has obviously restrained a lot. What is in chaos is order, and when an absolutely powerful force establishes order, it is actually no longer chaos.
In other words, after entering Liu from Tianding, the world is actually no longer in chaos, but has once again returned to the rules set by a powerful force!
No matter how harsh the rules are, they are much better than no rules in troubled times. What's more, the rules formulated by Liu Bei are not harsh. On the contrary, Liu Bei is willing to accept them as long as he is willing to change his past mistakes.
The collective is more realistic than the individual. The collective thinking mode is closer to rationality, while the individual is always more emotional. Therefore, in the face of survival and destruction, aristocratic families will choose to survive instead of seeking death for some ethereal possibility. Therefore,
As Liu Bei rose up without relying on the aristocratic family, the aristocratic family's behavior became more restrained.
This is also the reason why this era is gradually becoming more stable. When a person puts a gun to your head to force you to do good things, will you do it? Especially when a group of self-righteous people have already fallen in front of you.
.
This is also the reason why the social environment within the scope of the Han Dynasty has tended to be harmonious or stable. Because the biggest supporters of bandits, the biggest collaborators with officials and bandits, and the biggest land annexers have all restrained their actions.
, because the strongest force is liquidating these.
A force that is so powerful that it seems to be able to leave the family behind and go it alone, is threatening the family with clear intentions, asking the family to stop their current dangerous actions, and then use the method of "conquering people with virtue" to resolve conflicts.
Well, Chen Xi admits that his ability to "convince people with virtue" is all based on the huge difference in strength. The most obvious point is that there is no difference between himself when he visited Yingchuan and himself now. But what happened at that time?
No one listened to me, but now everyone can understand me no matter what I say.
Similarly, many schemes are very difficult to crack when one's own strength is slightly weaker than the other's, or is almost the same, but when one's strength far exceeds that of the other's, no matter how many tricks you use, I will break them!
Just like that time in Yanzhou, there was nothing wrong with Jushou's calculation, but Chen Xi attacked Jushou directly without any thought at all, because it didn't matter, even if they were enemies, he didn't worry about failure. So what's there to worry about?
Similarly, Fa Zheng's attack on Yuzhou was extremely precise, and he even thought that with three-thirds of the power of Jingzhou, Yizhou, and Zhuge, he could destroy Sun Ce in one breath, or even take a step back. If he could not destroy it, he could still break Sun Ce's current power
The momentum is rising day by day. But what is the result?
Zhou Yu did follow the path of Fazheng, but Sun Ce's tactics reversed the strategy. He directly defeated the Yizhou army, and Zhou Yu captured the entire Jingzhou with his backhand. It can be said that if Kuai Yue hadn't dug the Yangtze River and flooded Jingxiang, Zhou Yu would have definitely
He had the remaining strength to raise troops to recapture Yuzhou. In that battle, Zhou Yu and Fazheng won, but Jingzhou lost.
In fact, who is stronger and who is weaker among the advisors and commanders of both sides cannot be determined by just looking at the victory or defeat. Wang Jian fought against Li Mu and won three out of five times. This does not mean that Wang Jian is stronger than Li Mu. The weak force relies on cunning tactics, but
When you are strong, it is easiest to win with regular troops.
This is the so-called power of strength and weakness. It is obvious that Liu Bei is really very strong. In this case, there are naturally too many aristocratic families who know how to bow their heads. Of course, those who are purely guilty like Yuan Shu need to be eliminated.
, those from the Cao family, Xiahou family, Sun family, and Zhou family who came to inquire for information also need to be eliminated.
But even so, there are still 30% of the aristocratic families who did not come. These people are not die-hard loyalists of Cao Cao or Sun Ce. The reason why they did not come is equally simple. To put it nicely, it is called jade in pieces rather than to be destroyed.
, intending to be crushed by the wheels of history.
This is why Chen Xi was willing to come to 70%, well, some of them left later, leaving only 60%. No matter what mentality these 60% families have, at least they are willing to be carried out by Chen Xi with the support of powerful forces.
Virtue convinces people”!
Now that they have come and bowed their heads, these aristocratic families are ready to listen to Chen Xi's command. Since they have bowed their heads to survive, there is no need to straighten their backs.
Chen Xi wants harmony, so the aristocratic family that has reached this level is naturally willing to show Chen Xi the harmony of the aristocratic family. For the aristocratic family, everything they do now is for a better future. If there is no dormancy at this time, there will be no talk now.
What future.
This is also the reason why Chen Xi gives sweetness to the aristocratic family. What he wants is not a white-eyed wolf. As long as he is still a human being, there is the possibility of coordination. And while the aristocratic family is bowing its head now, let the aristocratic family sincerely accept the rules set by Liu Bei and follow the rules.
Enjoy the benefits.
Of course, there will definitely be people who will jump out, but if there is rain and dew, there will naturally be thunder. There is no need for Chen Xi to make any preparations. It is a think tank, a complete think tank that is enough to deal with any emergencies.
After seeing with his own eyes the complete infrastructure construction under Liu Bei's rule, the well-distributed water conservancy network, and the educational system that benefited all places, Zhou Yu felt depressed and became instantly aware of the behavior of the aristocratic family.
Zhou Yu was already prepared in his heart.
