Chapter 219

Does this capitalist govern the nation as easily as drinking water?

Wu Zhao was secretly shocked.

"Tell me."

"If you can give me a wonderful scheme, plus your previous criticism of my mistakes, I will give you a generous reward."

Wu Zhao's phoenix eyes fell on Gao Yang's face, very serious.

Gao Yang's eyes lit up, but he said, "Your Majesty, this strategy for strengthening the nation is very vicious. If Your Majesty uses it, you must never say that I offered this scheme."

"Otherwise, I will die sooner or later, so I might as well hit my head and die to avoid implicating the Dingguo Duke Prefecture."

"Can Your Majesty promise me?"

Once these words were spoken.

Wu Zhao's expression suddenly became solemn.

According to her understanding of Gao Yang, if Gao Yang didn't say this scheme was vicious, then the scheme was generally a bit vicious. If he said this scheme was slightly vicious, then it absolutely harmed the harmony of heaven, like a living Yama in the world!

Such as using smallpox to attack the city, cutting off water flow, making Yan and Chu kingdoms suffer from drought, all of which harmed the harmony of heaven and were extremely vicious!

But now, she had unlocked Gao Yang's highest level.

This scheme is very vicious!

Even saying that this was a scheme offered by Gao Yang, he would rather hit his head and die!

Wu Zhao couldn't sit still.

Shangguan Wan'er was also shocked in her heart. What kind of vicious scheme for strengthening the nation could make the living Yama feel it was vicious?

Shangguan Wan'er held her breath, extremely nervous.

Gao Tianlong and Gao Feng also looked serious.

This scheme even implicated the whole Dingguo Duke Prefecture!

"I promise you, I will not reveal half a word of today's conversation. If I use this scheme, I will not say it was you who said it."

Wu Zhao took a deep breath and made a guarantee!

Gao Yang felt a little relieved.

He took a sip of tea, sorted out his thoughts, and said directly.

"In my heart, the laws of the world, whether they are humans or beasts, are driven by fame and profit!"

"As the saying goes, the world is bustling for profit, and the world is bustling for profit. If Your Majesty wants to make Da Qian strong and destroy the six kingdoms, the root lies in the common people!"

"The battlefield is like a meat grinder, ten go and nine die. The common people are unwilling to fight for Da Qian. Once on the battlefield, they fear war, fear war, and avoid war. Naturally, there is no combat effectiveness!"

"If you can mobilize the enthusiasm of the common people of Da Qian to fight, Da Qian will have a tiger and wolf army that sweeps the six kingdoms."

Gao Yang's calm voice rang out, but before Wu Zhao could speak, Gao Tianlong's voice suddenly rang out.

"Even ants try to survive, let alone humans. You have never seen the cruelty of the battlefield, so you don't know. Under that kind of terrifying slaughter and fear, it is a miracle that soldiers don't flee. Wanting to stimulate the morale of soldiers is even harder than ascending to heaven."

"This is not to mention the common people actively wanting to fight!"

"How can you make the common people of Da Qian overcome the fear of human nature?"

Gao Tianlong's eyes were suddenly sharp, and his questioning voice rang out instantly.

People who have never been on the battlefield will never know the cruelty of war. When one compatriot after another falls, when the dense rain of arrows comes, that kind of fear will go deep into the bone marrow, and they will not be able to help but want to escape.

"The Duke is right. Wanting to make the common people want to fight and overcome the fear in human nature is as hard as ascending to heaven."

Wu Zhao also spoke.

Gao Yang's expression was calm. He just looked at Gao Tianlong and said, "Sun Er has never been on the battlefield, and I don't see the cruelty of the battlefield as clearly as Grandfather, but Grandfather's grasp of human nature is not as good as mine."

"In fact, for the common people, what they fear most is not death, but poverty!"

"Using greed to counter fear, this problem can be solved!"

Once the words were spoken.

Gao Tianlong's fists clenched suddenly.

"Poverty?"

Gao Tianlong repeated it and looked at Gao Yang.

Gao Yang continued, "For the common people, they are not afraid of death, but they are afraid of a life of hard work day after day, but they can't eat enough. They are afraid that they have no future, and their descendants will only live with their backs to the yellow soil and their faces to the sky forever."

"Compared to death, they fear this kind of life that can be seen at a glance and has no hope!"

Gao Yang looked at Wu Zhao, his expression calm, and in his eyes, it seemed as if the most basic common people of Da Qian appeared.

"But the noble families and vassal kings of Da Qian are entrenched, and the local and imperial officials collude. Even Your Majesty can only issue a decree to seek talent. For the common people, especially the bottom-level common people whose books are blocked, their fate is doomed from birth."

"It's the same cry at birth, but the fate is vastly different!"

"I was born in the Dingguo Duke Prefecture, and I have never had to worry about food and drink all my life. Many playboys in Changan can also inherit titles and family property by relying on the merits of their ancestors. These are things that the bottom-level common people of Da Qian can never achieve in their lives."

"And they have no power to change it. They have to work when they open their eyes during the day, until the sun goes down, day after day, year after year, tired and exhausted, and they can't even eat enough. How can they talk about governing the nation and pacifying the world?"

"But if Your Majesty reforms, tears open a hole in the top of the common people's heads, and breaks all this, the common people will have hope. They will have the opportunity to change their own destiny and even their family's, and death will not be something to fear!"

Gao Yang's words fell.

The whole hall suddenly fell into a deathly silence.

Everyone's expression changed wildly. Gao Yang's remarks were no different from a storm in their hearts!

Wu Zhao's heart rolled with a monstrous wave. Combined with what Gao Yang said about mobilizing the enthusiasm of the common people to fight, and this remark.

She already knew Gao Yang's meaning.

"Do you want to combine war with the fate of the common people?"

Wu Zhao asked word by word.

Gao Yang took a deep breath and met Wu Zhao's eyes, "Your Majesty guessed right."

"In the world today, the seven kingdoms check and balance each other. If you want to destroy the other six kingdoms, the fastest and most effective method is the military rank system!"

"Your Majesty can set up a twenty-level military rank system, treating noble families and common people equally, all based on military merit!"

"At the same time, set different privileges for each level. Titles can be rewarded with money, can offset corvee labor, and can offset crimes. As long as you fight bravely and kill more enemy heads, you can be promoted, and even reach the position of a minister!"

"In this way, ordinary common people have more paths for promotion, breaking the blockade and having the opportunity to change their destiny. Then promote a few ordinary common people to become famous generals through military merit, successfully changing their destiny, and being worshipped by the common people!"

"In this way, the common people of Da Qian will surely be like a tiger and wolf army, fighting bravely!"
