Gongsun Xun was soaked like a drowned rat. When he came to the city gate, he saw clearly the person who had just stepped forward to support him. He took a closer look and found that he was indeed an old acquaintance of Zhao State. The son of Wei Song, the prime minister of Lu State, was similar to him.

Wei Chang and Wei Zhongmao share the opinions of teachers and students.

"It's me! The student has met the teacher." Wei Chang quickly raised his hand and explained slightly. "The student is the one who was targeted after the Yellow Turban Rebellion last year... Don't worry, teacher, the student will try his best to collect firewood and a little

When the food comes, please ask the teacher to take my wife into the city as soon as possible, and rest in my official temple! As for the teacher's obedience, I will immediately ask the powerful people in the city to make preparations in all the pavilions, and try to make room for her."

"Zhongmao." Gongsun Xun was in a state of embarrassment. Hearing this, he just shook off the water stains on his body and laughed for a moment. "I'm certainly very happy to meet you on the way, but it's still raining. I'm afraid it's raining.

This is not the time to go in... Let your wife take the women and children into the city, I still have things to do."

Wei Chang, Wei Yue, and even Lou Gui and Han Dang, who had just arrived, didn't know what was going on.

"Yi Gong." Gongsun Xun asked with a smile. "Did you notice the small platform we just passed by outside the city?"

Han Dang nodded immediately.

Wei Chang also quickly interjected: "That was the sacrificial platform used to appease the people during the previous plague in this county. It was two feet high. It was only built in the spring. Now there is only a mound of earth."

"I wonder what a coincidence we are facing the intersection." Gongsun Xun laughed more and more. "Yi Gong, please quickly take out all my ceremonial guards, umbrella covers, and white horse flags, and choose a few who are strong and healthy.

Those who are going to be sick will stand with me on the stage, and I will watch the team all settle down in the open space in front of the city."

"Your Majesty!" Before Han Dang could speak, Wei Yue was speechless. "The umbrella cover is so tall and it is obviously for sun protection. How can it prevent rain? I'm afraid it won't be soaked with water, but it will pour water on you!"

Gongsun Xunli ignored him and just urged Han Dang to do it. He walked out of the city gate with a smile and waved his hands, and urged the cars carrying the women to enter the city quickly in the rain.

Han Dang was a little helpless and could only do as he was told. However, before leaving, he couldn't help but look at Lou Gui for help.

"Your Majesty, I have my uncle in charge behind me, and I will definitely not let anything go wrong." Lou Gui reluctantly walked out of the city gate to persuade.

"It's not the same thing as being able to make people feel at ease." Gongsun Xun disagreed. "It's raining heavily now, and no one knows when it will stop. Those refugees who don't have a place to shelter from the rain are helpless, but they are even more afraid.

I am drifting outside without anyone to rely on. I don’t know if I can survive this time, let alone what the future holds... And since they followed me out of admiration for my name, they presumably know me. If I were waiting in Gao Gao

They have arrived one after another, and if we wait for the rain to stop and light a bonfire with them, they will definitely feel at ease tonight. Besides, I am outside the city, and those powerful people in the city dare not not try their best to help."

"You still want to spend the night outside with them?" Wei Yue was speechless. "Why is this so?"

Gongsun Xun glanced at Wei Yue, and then sneered: "Wei Zidu, you must know that everything is people-oriented. If I hadn't treated you Wuyuan immigrants with such sincerity, how could you and Cheng Lian follow me here?"

After saying that, he saw Han Dang starting to prepare for the ceremony in the rain on the stage not far away, but Gongsun Xun ignored him and walked directly through the rain.

In fact, what even close friends like Lou Gui don’t know is that these ten thousand people, Gongsun Xun, will not give up no matter what, not only for some practical considerations. The more important point is that from the beginning

When someone followed us, our General Wei thought of the old acquaintance 'General Zuo' in the story who was 'able to win people'. In other words, Gongsun Xun didn't believe it. After ten years of hard work, could he be inferior to the loser Liu Bei in history?

Virtuous?

Moreover, at that time, Liu Bei had Cao Cao's swordsmen behind him and hundreds of thousands of people around him. What did he do? If he abandoned people easily at this time, how would he have the face to fight for the world in the future? It would be better to return to Liaoxi and never return.

Got it!

On the other side, when Wei Yue heard this, he was rarely shy, but he lowered his head and sighed, then pursued forward again.

The county magistrate Wei Chang actually sighed, looked at Lou Gui again, and stopped talking.

"Please go to the city for the hard work," Lou Gui said indifferently. "You can find Lu Ziheng in the city and help him arrange supplies so that he can sleep in the best place... Don't worry about us."

After saying this, Lou Gui actually went to the stage in the rain.

There were thunderstorms in the summer, and Gongsun Xun on the small stage was beaten badly by the rain, but he was still sitting on the stage in full ceremonial flags, with double purple ribbons and gold seals. Plus Lou Gui and Han behind him

At that moment, Wei Yue and Han Hao came over after hearing the news on the way, leading dozens of warriors to stand with their swords stacked on top of each other.

In this situation, it is really like a commander sitting in the army, standing still.

And just as Gongsun Xun had guessed before, the panicked refugee teams were stagnant one after another, and then miraculously restored order, and even though they were not allowed to enter the city, many of them had no complaints.

Not only that, there are not only bankrupt poor people in the refugee team, but also good family members who were forced to abandon their homes due to constant banditry. When they pass by here, they often come out to bow to each other.

But Gongsun Xun actually kept smiling and raised his hands to signal everyone who came out to salute.

After all, the summer rain did not last long and did not wait until night. In fact, before the refugee team of more than 10,000 people had even arrived, the sun suddenly appeared again.

Dry firewood was delivered to the city, and some food was sent to Wang Xiu, who was in charge of managing the refugee team. At the same time, dragonflies were flying around, attracting many children to chase them. At the river outside the city, people went to fetch running water.

After discovering the movement of frogs, fish and shrimps, many young people who still had some energy went to catch frogs to satisfy their hunger at night.

For a moment, under the sunshine after the summer rain, there was such an indescribable energy in the refugee camp outside the city.

"I finally understand today!" Lou Gui, who had been standing frozen for a long time on the small stage, suddenly spoke.

"Understand what?" Gongsun Xun only felt that the smile he put on to appease people had become too stiff.

"I understand how Zhang Yan gathered so-called millions of people." Lou Zibo sighed. "We have five hundred cavalry, and it was so difficult to maintain order along the way. It is conceivable that such refugees

Once it breaks down and goes out of order, how can it not turn into bandits? Moreover, things like spiritual energy and diseases are generally contagious. If the monarch sits in the rain like this and makes people feel at ease, then the people's hearts will be so stable easily; then think about it, if

If there is no one to restrain them, and a few of the tens of thousands of people are displaced to become bandits, then within a few days all ten thousand people will become bandits...I am afraid that we still have to choose a leader, and the ants may attack the city."

Gongsun Xun's heart moved slightly, but he remained silent.

Han Dang, on the other hand, probably found it difficult to accept what happened to Zhang Yan. At this time, he couldn't help but say a few words to Lou Gui: "If millions of people have gathered like this, it's no wonder that Zhang Yan's heart is unstable. Not only did he quickly

Please surrender, and accept the surrender quickly, and even write a letter to express your greetings to the king, and the words are extremely humble."

"His despicable letter actually shows that he is a bit arrogant now." When facing Han Dang, Lou Gui was naturally straightforward. "However, Yi Gong is right about one thing, that is, millions of people,

In the hands of Zhang Yan, they are destined to be just a bunch of bandits. But if we follow the people-oriented attitude of our monarch and control millions of people... I am afraid that the world will be stable long ago, why go to the Purple Mountain and the Golden Mountain?

"

Han Dang nodded immediately.

On the other side, Gongsun Xun finally relaxed his stiff facial expression at this time, but he was slightly solemn: "Actually, I really didn't expect that Hebei would be in such chaos along the way... World affairs, as expected,

It’s all driven by the general trend!”

——————I am the dividing line that cannot be controlled by others————

"Xun returned to the west of Liaoning from the north, and there was a great chaos in Jizhou. Millions of bandits were attacking each other, and the roads were blocked. Xun took his family with him and recruited 500 loyal followers, all of whom were white horses and capable of hundreds of battles. At first, we decided to use a strong army and move quickly.

Returning to the north, Xun said: "There is a war and epidemic. Although they are called bandits, they are actually refugees. If they return quickly, they will be killed or wounded. I can't bear it." The people stayed in Bai for more than a month. When Zhang Yan surrendered, the road became slightly clearer.

When I returned, there were constant refugees, and they were also harmed by bandits. Starting from the Bai people, many people followed Xun and wanted to take refuge outside the Youzhou fortress. By the time they arrived in Hejian, there were tens of thousands of them, carrying hundreds of baggage, and they traveled more than ten miles a day.

During the heavy rain, everyone was in a panic, or Xun said: "We have all our chariots and horses, so we should move quickly. Now everyone is following us, and we are short of food. If there is a roar at night, or if there is a sudden outbreak of disease, Ming Gong's children are all here."

, They are all young, how can I be worthy of it?" Xun replied: "Since I was studying, my widowed mother, or my teachers have all taught me that everything must be people-oriented. Now that this person has returned to me, how can I bear to abandon him?"

When they arrived outside Zhongshui City, everyone was in a panic in the rain, and everyone was urged to enter the city again. Xun was in full ceremonial guard, holding a flag on the platform, waiting for the crowd to arrive, to show that he would not give up. When the weather clears, everyone will return to their hearts." - "Heroes of the Late Han Dynasty."
