Chapter 620 He Who Wins the Hearts of the People Wins the World

Zhuge Liang said this with a look of confidence on his face.

"Oh?" Cui Jun, who was most concerned about this matter, hurriedly grabbed Zhuge Liang and said hurriedly: "Kong Ming, although you are young, the teacher values ​​you the most. I think you must have some high opinions. Please come and listen to me as a brother."

Zhuge Liang, Cui Jun, Shi Tao, Meng Jian, Xu Shu and others had always been friends. They often talked about world affairs and debated with each other. Among them, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, although they were the youngest, were the most valued by Pang De and Sima Hui.

Zhuge Liang smiled slightly: "Liang heard what Brother Guangyuan said before, but Liang disagrees."

Shi Tao laughed and replied: "Kong Ming, Brother Yu has been wanting to hear your opinion for a long time. Come and hear it quickly."

"I wonder if you have noticed?" Zhuge Liang walked to the middle of the crowd. Many Lumen students surrounded him and looked at him, wanting to hear what Zhuge Liang had to say.

"Last month, Cao Mengde publicly expressed his support for Liu Ye to expel the Wuhuan people and provided Liu Ye with five thousand shi of military rations." Zhuge Liang said.

"This is natural. The general sent troops to deal with the Wuhuan people, and all the people in the world supported it. The reason why Cao Mengde spent military rations was to win the hearts and minds of the people in the world." Meng Jian said sharply.

"That's right!" Zhuge Liang nodded and said, "What Brother Gongwei said is absolutely true. Cao Cao gave the general food and grass to win the hearts of the people in the world, and this is the general's magic weapon to win!"

"Chu and Han were fighting for hegemony. My husband, King Xiang, was brave enough to conquer all three armies. Gaozu was defeated and defeated many times, but he finally won. Why?" Zhuge Liang said impassionedly: "Although King Xiang is brave and brave throughout history, he is cruel and easy to kill. He often massacres cities and armies. The Battle of Julu was a complete victory, all 200,000 Qin troops were killed, and Epang Palace was burned down. The Qin people were greatly disappointed."

"On the other hand, Gaozu made a three-chapter agreement since he entered the Pass, and the people of Qin all cheered for joy. Gaozu was initially enfeoffed to Bashu by King Xiang, and he followed the plan of Marquis Huaiyin to build a plank road to cross Chencang secretly, and returned to the Three Qin Dynasties. The elders of the Qin people were all happy, and King Xiang's failure to pass the customs made people's hearts turn. But Gaozu won the hearts of the people in Guanzhong, so Chu and Han fought for hegemony for several years, but Gaozu was able to win in the end!"

Zhuge Liang looked around at the Lumen students and said loudly: "Everyone, for the sake of the people of Hebei, the general will not hesitate to use the weak to attack the strong and the small to attack the masses. How can the people in the world not support the general? The people of Hebei will definitely join the army enthusiastically and eat the juice from the pot. To welcome the king's army, how can the general not be victorious in this way?"

"This is whoever wins the hearts of the people wins the world!"

"well!"

Bang bang bang! Cui Jun flushed with excitement, clapped his palms, and said happily: "Kong Ming's words are really good. He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world. The general's fight against Wuhuan is exactly what he did to win the hearts of the people. How can he not win?"

"Okay, Kong Ming's words are really insightful."

An old man with a gray beard and a gentle face walked over with a smile. When many Lumen students saw this old man, their faces suddenly became solemn, their hands folded together, and they bowed down and bowed down.

"The student has met Master Pang."

"Haha, get up." This old man is none other than the founder of Lumen Academy, Jingxiang great scholar Pang Degong.

"Teacher." Seeing Pang Degong, Zhuge Liang also bowed down and bowed down.

Pang Degong helped Zhuge Liang up with a smile and praised: "Kong Ming, what you said is very good. Those who win the hearts of the people win the world. This has been the case since ancient times."

"Xia Jie was desolate and cruel, so Shang Tang changed him, and Shang Zhou was cruel, and Zhou Wu replaced him. Shang Tang won the people's hearts and established the world; Shang Zhou lost the people's hearts and destroyed the world. From this, we can see that the key to kingship lies in the people."

Pang Degong lightly stroked his beard: "King Li was cruel and the people of Zhou were blind to the road, so the people of the country rioted. The second emperor Huan Ling appointed villains, and the scholar-bureaucrats fought together, which was the disaster of the party. The people of the world would rather have their families destroyed than to protect the scholars. This is correct. It’s because of the support of the people. In this battle, the general will fight decisively for the people of Youzhou and the Wuhuan people. Regardless of victory or defeat, he will have the support of the people of the world. Even if he fails, he can still make a comeback. This is the way of a king."

After hearing what Pang Degong said, Meng Jian, Cui Jun, Shi Tao and other Lumen students all understood and bowed down.

"Thank you, teacher, for clarifying your doubts. The students will be taught a lesson."

Pang Degong stroked his beard and laughed: "It's nothing. What Guangyuan and Gongwei said just now are quite insightful. They are the opinions of wise men. I am very pleased to be my teacher. And Zhou Ping, the three of you have accomplished something in your studies. These few days Let’s go down the mountain soon.”

"Ah? The students have benefited a lot from Lumen Academy and don't want to leave the teacher." Cui Jun hurriedly bent down and said: "The students are willing to continue studying with the teacher. Please don't drive the students away."

Meng Jian and Shi Tao also bent down and said: "The students have only learned a superficial knowledge. Please ask the teacher not to drive the students away."

Pang Degong smiled and shook his head: "I am not driving you away as a teacher, but you have learned enough. You have read thousands of books and traveled thousands of miles. It is time for you to go out and see. It is not good to study hard."

Cui Jun sighed, his red eyes even shed a trace of tears, and he cupped his hands to Pang Degong and said: "In this case, the students dare not forget the kindness of the teacher's teachings, and they will definitely repay him in the future."

Pang Degong laughed loudly: "I educate you as a teacher, don't you hope to repay me? I just hope that you will grow into pillars of talent, serve the country, and appease the people."

"Remember." Pang Degong suddenly said solemnly: "If anyone commits adultery and violates the law in the future, and bullies the people when serving as an official, don't mention that he is a Lumen student. He will be expelled from the academy immediately as a teacher and will never be hired!"

Meng Jian, Shi Tao, and Cui Jun became energetic and said in unison: "Students, please remember your teacher's teachings and do not dare to violate them."

"Okay, you guys pack up and go out in the next few days." Pang Degong said a few words warmly, then turned around and walked into the thatched cottage.

"I really envy my three senior brothers for being able to travel." Zhuge Liang's younger brother Zhuge Jun said with envy: "I don't know when I will be able to serve as an official."

Shi Tao laughed, touched Zhuge Jun's head and said, "Xiao Jun, as long as you study hard, if you don't want to come out, the teacher will kick you out."

Zhuge Jun muttered in a low voice: "How long will it take to wait?"

"Third brother." Zhuge Liang said sternly: "Don't always think about becoming an official. Being an official should benefit the country. Now that you have learned so much, how can you become an official casually? Even if you become a local official, you are just mediocre. It's not as good as Don’t do it.”

"Stay in Lumen Academy and study hard. When you become a talented person, you will be able to talk about anything. Do you understand?" Zhuge Liang said seriously.

"I know, second brother, you are much more lenient than the eldest brother." Zhuge Jun said impatiently.

"Oh, by the way, Kong Ming." Shi Tao said, "Speaking of Tzuyu, where did he go?"
