The Strongest Lu Bu: Sweeping the World

Chen Lin said: "This subordinate will definitely do his best."

In fact, Chen Lin is more responsible for writing the affairs of the Xuzhou newspaper. As for how the Xuzhou newspaper managed to appear in large numbers, Chen Lin is not very clear, but judging from the neat and identical handwriting on the Xuzhou newspaper, it is obvious that there is a other means.

Without really getting into the core of Xuzhou, it is obviously impossible to learn more, but now that Chen Lin has made a choice, she will get corresponding convenience. For this matter, Chen Lin still relatively clear.

Chen Lin still admires Lu Bu's methods in governing Xuzhou. After taking control of Xuzhou, a general made Xuzhou develop so much in a short period of time. I am afraid that it is not a simple matter to achieve it.

Chapter 491 Movable Type Printing

In Xuzhou, Lu Bu achieved great success. Such success is a kind of stimulation to other princes.

Lu Bu's reputation among the princes is very bad, which determines that many princes did not have a so-called kind attitude towards Lu Bu, just like Yuan Shu, who supported Lu Bu at the beginning, but wanted to achieve his own goals.

Although Chen Lin is only in charge of the Xuzhou newspaper, she is not weak in resourcefulness, and has a certain analysis of the princes.

"In the future, Kong Zhang will be fully responsible for the affairs of the Xuzhou newspaper," Lu Bu said.

Chen Lin clapped her hands and said yes.

"However, this Marquis does not want some secrets of the Xuzhou newspaper to be known to others. These are important secrets of Xuzhou." Lu Bu warned.

Chen Lin's heart warmed up. Being able to receive such attention immediately after taking refuge in Lu Bu was enough to show that Lu Bu valued him. Being able to receive such attention from a prince will definitely be of great help to his future development. of.

Literati, if they want to shine brightly in troubled times, they naturally need to rely on them, and the choice of monarch will have a great impact on them in the future.

But once they make a choice, they will not regret it easily. The literati of this era pay attention to being consistent.

If there is no special reason to change the monarch midway, it will have a great impact on their reputation.

It has not been a short time since he came to the end of the Han Dynasty. Lu Bu is naturally clear about the things here. After Chen Lin took office under his command at first, it was basically impossible for Chen Lin to join him.

But after letting Chen Lin stay in Xuzhou for a period of time, he will be able to feel the difference in Xuzhou. If so, he will have more emotions for Xuzhou. Such things are most suitable for Lu Bu. Let Chen Lin adapt to life in Xuzhou, like the current position, even when she can't get out, ask Chen Lin to be loyal, can Chen Lin do a better job of refusing?

As a monarch, sometimes you should not be too anxious to recruit courtiers.

From Lu Bu's words, what Chen Lin could feel was Lu Bu's trust. The Xuzhou Newspaper must have secrets. This is also certain. It is impossible for other princes to imitate the Xuzhou Newspaper.

And Lu Bu's complete handing over of the Xuzhou Newspaper to him is enough to prove Lu Bu's trust in him. In this way, Chen Lin will have a lot of gratitude to Lu Bu.

After having the emotion of gratitude, the remaining things are much easier to handle.

Although Chen Lin is a child of an aristocratic family, she also has her own ambitions.

If it wasn't because of Lu Bu's affairs, Chen Lin might have been under Yuan Shao's command now. Lu Bu was very happy to see such a thing, and recruiting more talents to go to other princes' command would be of great help to his future development.

In fact, Lu Bu is quite satisfied with the current team of counselors. Whether it is Guo Jia or Jia Xu, they are rare talents. It's hard to forgive yourself.

Guo Jia and Jia Xu can be said to be the top strategists of this era. Coupled with the strong strength of the Xuzhou Army, Lu Bu will have enough capital when he confronts other princes. In troubled times, it is far beyond imagination to gain a place As simple as it is in the book, you can better see this aspect from the suffering that Lu Bu experienced after occupying Xuzhou.

In the face of difficulties, what the monarch needs to do is not to give up. No matter what kind of difficulties he faces, he must have an indomitable heart, so that his subjects can better see the firm will of the monarch. This situation is very important for the future development of the monarch. It is also extremely beneficial.

After arriving at the end of the Han Dynasty, compared with other princes, Lv Bu had no so-called advantages, and his reputation was very bad, which made Lv Bu have an even worse reputation among the princes. Just because of his reputation, how many people slipped from Lv Bu's hands Walk.

It's not that Lu Bu doesn't want to change the current situation, but that even though he has put in a lot of effort, it is impossible for him to get the approval of more literati. After a fixed pattern, even if some of Lu Bu's behaviors are appropriate, they will become outrageous in their eyes.

Lu Bu, who is not from a big family, has a great disadvantage when he competes with other princes. If Lu Bu can defeat more princes under such circumstances and make the strength of his rulers stronger, he will be the real one. sharp.

From Lu Bu, Chen Lin can feel his ambition. Such an ambitious courtier will definitely be punished when the big man is stable. Even Lu Bu's position as Xuzhou Mu is not justified. .

Although there was the canonization of the imperial court and the permission of Yuan Shao, the leader of the princes and alliance, the impression left by Lu Bu has been confirmed, and this situation is extremely unfavorable for Lu Bu.

For some things, Lu Bu has no choice. Now that he has done it, he must do his best to let more people who despise him be punished as they should.

As for those princes who want to occupy Xuzhou, Lu Bu will not show any mercy. Everything in Xuzhou was obtained through the hard work of himself and his subordinates. The current grand situation in Xuzhou is precisely because Lu Bu lives and works in troubled times. The root of this is also a reward for the civil servants and generals who followed behind him.

If the monarch cannot let the civilian and military generals under his rule see hope, why should the civil and military generals give him more support?

"Kong Zhang, there are some things about Xuzhou News that you may not know, but the Xuzhou News is able to make a large number of appearances because of technology. This Marquis calls it movable type printing." Lu Bu said.

When Chen Lin heard the words, her face showed doubts, obviously she didn't understand what Lu Bu meant by movable type printing.

After Lu Bu explained the matter of movable type printing, Chen Lin suddenly realized that there were many differences in the way she looked at Lu Bu. There was no movable type printing before. No matter where Lu Bu learned about such a method, it was enough to arouse Chen Lin Lin's admiration.

"My lord is wise." Chen Lin cupped her hands.

Lu Bu obviously enjoys Chen Lin's praise. Chen Lin still has a certain influence among literati, but Chen Lin's work under Lu Bu's command has caused many literati to scold. In Xuzhou, it also bears a lot of burden.

Lu Bu has never been stingy with officials who sincerely rely on him, and letting Chen Lin get in touch with more secrets is also paving the way for the next step.

Chapter 492 Book Matters

"Most of the books that Kong Zhang comes into contact with are made of bamboo slips, and it is very troublesome to transport them. If I order these books to be printed with movable type, what does Kong Zhang think?" Lu Bu asked with a smile. .

After Chen Lin heard Lu Bu's words, her body trembled. He naturally thought of the benefits that would be brought by doing so.

For literati, the most inseparable thing is books, and in the big family, there are many collections of books. They will not easily borrow these books for the children of the aristocratic family to study.

The preciousness of books can be imagined.

The bulkiness of books is also a big problem, but printing the characters originally on the bamboo slips on paper is completely different, the weight is lighter, and it will be easier to read.

"My lord's move is a blessing to the literati in the world." Chen Lin praised sincerely, looking at Lu Bu with a lot of admiration.

Lu Bu said: "However, it is not easy to completely print these books. Some aristocratic and powerful families control books more strictly, and it is very difficult to borrow them."

Chen Lin cupped her hands and said, "My lord, this matter can be resolved by my subordinates. At that time, my subordinates will come out to borrow books from Xuzhou's family, and a special person will be responsible for transcribing them."

"Okay, with Kong Zhang in charge of this matter, the Marquis is relieved a lot." Lu Bu laughed.

Chen Lin has a certain influence among the aristocratic family, and if such influence can be used well, the role it can play cannot be ignored.

It would be much more convenient for Chen Lin to borrow books. Besides, these aristocratic families would never have imagined that after Chen Lin borrowed the books, she would have other actions.

"After transcribing as many books as possible, I will be responsible for printing." Lu Bu said.

Chen Lin nodded and said yes, such a move was a blow to the aristocratic family's control over books, and they never imagined that Lu Bu would have such a means to directly mass-produce the books they owned. After it is passed on, what kind of impact will it have on the status of the aristocratic family.

How could Chen Lin fail to consider such matters, but in Chen Lin's view, such matters are beneficial to the literati in the world, even if they cause some damage to the aristocratic and wealthy families, they are not worth mentioning compared to the benefits .

Through Chen Lin, the problem of books can be better solved. When there are more books, Lu Bu will select useful books and send them to the craftsman workshop for the students in the secretly established school to study.

Lu Bu placed high hopes on the students in the school. These people may become important officials under his rule in the future, and he must not slack off in their training.

Besides, with a large number of books, more talents can be added under the rule. These talents do not necessarily come from aristocratic families. In this way, the influence of aristocratic families in officialdom will be greatly reduced.

As for the fact that the aristocratic family would blame Lu Bu for this, Lu Bu would not care. Such a matter would not allow the aristocratic family to grasp the handle. This is a matter of great contribution to the literati.

Books originally belonged to the people of the world. After the aristocratic families took control of the books, the common people became more dull, and it became even more difficult for poor scholars to stand out. Given the opportunity to be appointed, it is predictable how difficult it will be for them to stand out in the process of competing with the children of the aristocratic family.

This kind of situation is not what the monarch wants to see. As a monarch, he naturally hopes to have more talents under his rule so that these talents can be better used by the monarch, rather than saying that the talents belong to a certain family.

Lu Bu recognized the power of the aristocratic family, but in front of the aristocratic family, Lu Bu would not easily admit defeat.

Although the battle between Lv Bu and the aristocratic family has not really started yet, Lv Bu is already planning in advance.

The emergence of a large number of books can affect the status of aristocratic families, which will have a relatively large impact on the future situation.

When poor scholars can get books and learn something, they are grateful to Lu Bu.

Nowadays, the most talented people are still the children of wealthy families. This situation will hardly change in the next few years.

In Lu Bu's view, secretly building a school is not enough. After a large number of books appear, Lu Bu will openly set up a school in Xuzhou for people of insight to study.

And if the outstanding talents in the school can be used by him, Lu Bu will have the capital to further confront the aristocratic family in the future.

Lu Bu didn't have a good impression of the aristocratic family. These people control a lot of resources, and even want to manipulate the monarch. For the benefit of the family, they will do everything possible. If their actions can be recognized by the aspiring monarch, it will be the most impressive. People are weird things out.

Could it be said that in the past, the monarchs of the great Han did not want to change this situation? It’s just that the influence of aristocratic families in the court is too great, and it can be said that it can affect the whole body. The stability of the world will have a great impact.

The factors in this, the monarch must consider them.

The most powerful thing about the aristocratic family is their control over talents. If they can weaken the influence of the aristocratic family from this aspect, the action will be half successful.

When books appear in large numbers, it is not the aristocratic and powerful families that can control them.

Chen Lin only thought about how convenient the books would be after they appeared, and didn't consider what kind of measures Lu Bu would use the books for.

After books appear in the form of paper, there are many conveniences for literati. This is something that is beneficial to literati all over the world. Maybe it will be widely circulated in later generations. If such things are involved, it is also important for Chen Lin meaningful.

However, any literati who can see the things clearly will not reject Lu Bu's proposal.

After agreeing with Lu Bu, Chen Lin will stand on Lu Bu's point of view when considering some things.

"My lord, after the preparation of the book is ready, it can be announced to the world, so that more literati can know what the lord has done for them." Chen Lin said.

Lu Bu nodded and said, "Kong Zhang has a heart."

"What Benhou has done in the past may be very bad in the eyes of literati, but I will not have the slightest regret." Lu Bu said: "At the beginning, why didn't Benhou want to kill the old thief Dong Zhuo? Thieves also have many precautions against this Marquis."

Chapter 493 Completely different mood

Chen Lin nodded in agreement, but she had more thoughts in her heart. In the past, Lu Bu did not mention this matter. Even in the face of scolding from scholars, he silently endured. The means of repelling the armies of the princes.

Could it be that Lu Bu didn't want to explain? It's just that the literati in the world didn't give Lu Bu such a chance.

After taking refuge in Lv Bu, Chen Lin would consider issues from Lv Bu's point of view. If Lv Bu's defection to Dong Zhuo was to kill Dong Zhuo's old thief, Lv Bu's behavior is worthy of praise. As for Ding Yuan's death in Lv Bu's hands, no one actually seen it.

Perhaps Dong Zhuo said this on purpose in order to make Lu Bu return to his heart.

Sometimes, what is seen on the surface is not necessarily true.

However, the influence of the aristocratic family is too great. One can imagine how difficult it is to make changes to what they believe.

Now, Lu Bu has become a powerful member of the princes. Relying on the strong strength of the Xuzhou Army, it is a good start for Lu Bu to gain a foothold among the princes.

After really having a lot of contact with Lu Bu, you will find that Lu Bu is not as cruel as the rumors outside, and he is relatively modest and cautious when dealing with the opinions of the officials under his rule.

And Lu Bu's trust in the officials under his rule may be difficult for many princes to achieve.

Chen Lin even thought that maybe following Lu Bu could really achieve something.

"Before this Marquis recruited talented people in Xuzhou, but the effect was not very good. After Kong Zhang returned, he published a recruitment order in the Xuzhou newspaper. This Marquis recruited talented people from all over the world. As long as they are capable people, come After arriving in Xuzhou, the Marquis will definitely use him again," Lu Bu said.

Chen Lin clapped her hands and said yes.

It is normal for the monarch to have a desire for talents. If the monarch is indifferent when facing talents, such a monarch is unqualified.

The development of Xuzhou is inseparable from the support of talents. Without the help of more talents, how many cities can be managed just by relying on Lu Bu's ability.

Recruiting talents is of great significance to the current Lu Bu, but Lu Bu's reputation determines that people with a certain reputation are definitely not willing to come to seek refuge with Lu Bu.

But Lu Bu has such a mind, and it is also a good opportunity for the talented people living among the people.

The disdain for Lu Bu by the children of the aristocratic family does not mean that the humble scholars have no illusions about Lu Bu. In any case, Lu Bu is a prince of the Han Dynasty and an official of the Han Dynasty.

It is not a simple matter for poor scholars to have a bright future, and the effort they often need to put in is unimaginable for the children of aristocratic families.

After seeing the opportunity, the humble scholars will not give up easily.

For example, Guo Jia under Lu Bu's command can be said to be a scholar from a poor family. Although he has contacts with the children of the aristocratic family, he could not get enough attention after he came to Yuan Shao's command, and he could only choose to leave Yuan Shao in the end.

Such cases are not rare.

It's just that there are too many children from wealthy families, which makes the number of scholars from poor families seem very small.

If the power of more humble scholars is really mobilized, it is conceivable that the impact on Lu Bu's future development will be great.

The development of any prince requires talents and family support.

After taking charge of Xuzhou, although Lu Bu explained the truth, the Xuzhou family did not have more support for him, and some families even wished that he would leave Xuzhou as soon as possible.

Facts have proved that Lu Bu has extraordinary means after taking charge of Xuzhou. If not, why is the current Xuzhou army so tyrannical, and Xuzhou has gradually become prosperous after stabilization.

Being able to make his subordinates achieve greater development is in itself a manifestation of the ability of the princes, not to mention that in such a process, Lu Bu has endured a lot of pressure.

After chatting with Lu Bu, Chen Lin said goodbye and left. At this time, Chen Lin's mood was completely different from that of when she just came under Lu Bu's command.

Through Lu Bu's description, what Chen Lin saw was Xuzhou's prosperity in the future. Such a powerful Xuzhou will not have the slightest fear even if it faces the attacks of other princes.

Besides, at that time, Lu Bu can completely lead the soldiers in the army to do more.
