Chapter 3117 Human Nature

Just like this, Jinyang, Taiyuan fell?
Cui Jun glared.
Even the whole person is in a bad mood because of this.
Before it fell, everyone thought that Jinyang was as solid as a god.
There are city walls, city defenses, soldiers, civilians, military supplies, food and wages, and everything is available.
Yes, why is it like sieves everywhere in a city with complete preparations?
How could the business after so many years be suddenly compromised?
This is impossible!
Absolutely impossible!
Cui Jun refused to believe it and even felt angry!
When is this time? Is it still making such jokes?
This huge stimulation made Cui Jun feel his head buzzing, his heart was irritated, he couldn't calm down and could not accept it at all.
Is Jinyang the only city that has been easily conquered in history?
It was like Yangzhou during the Ming and Qing dynasties, like Nanjing under the hoofs of Japanese invaders.
Preparation is not enough, preparation is not long-term, and people around them even think about how to fight against the enemy under the city wall. Many people even imagine how to fight and how to defend against the enemy, and can make more than a dozen combat plans.
How could it be so easy to fall into it?
Is it Shi Jiangzhi that the fall of Yangzhou?
Is it because of the fall of Nanjing that Tang lost his heart?
None of them.
Even because they are "smart" enough, they are doing too well.
Similarly, the fall of Jinyang is also inseparable from Cui Jun's "smartness".
If Cui Jun is really stupid and really subverts his wisdom, he will not have so many tricks, nor will he want to be with mud and faces, and does not think about playing with political means, but just knows to do things honestly, then Jinyang will naturally be worry-free.
But Cui Jun is not a stupid person. He has not been surrendered to his wisdom, and even his intelligence and talents have been fully utilized before!
Authority, measurement.
Benefit, greed.
Compromise, politics...
This is a human being!
This is the best, smart person!
After Cui Jun moved from Xihe County to Taiyuan County, he regarded Taiyuan County as his territory.
All the officials of the land will be killed and seized.
This was originally excellent, but Fei Qian did not follow the original dual king system of the Han Dynasty, but instead strengthened the centralization of Guanzhong and controlled the authority of the local prefect, which naturally made Cui Jun, who had been officials of his ancestors and even had three dukes in his family, was very uncomfortable.
Cui Jun has never said anything publicly, but it doesn't mean he hasn't done anything.
After Fei Qian vigorously developed the cavalry, the military battles of the entire Han Dynasty had actually been passively accelerated. Just like in the Spring and Autumn Period, both sides could still fight according to etiquette. When the Warring States Period appeared, everyone began to slap each other...
Some people adapt, some people passively, and some people don’t feel that they need to adapt.
Cui Jun is in Taiyuan, but his words and deeds are like Shandong, and Xiahou Dun is in Cao's army, but his tactics are like Guanzhong.
Who is right?
Who is wrong?
Xiahou Dun's move was undoubtedly extremely risky. He rushed from the north road of Fukou Xing, approaching a hundred miles, and rushed straight to Jinyang, Taiyuan before the heavy snow fell.
On the other hand, Cui Jun in Taiyuan County thought that Xiahou Dun had to wait at least until the ice and snow melted in spring before attacking. He could not say that Cao's army was already unable to bear the ice and snow and retreated on its own. So although he had some precautions, he did not take much care. Xiahou Dun caught the flaw and invaded the city in one fell swoop.
At the beginning, Xiahou Dun never thought that he could really capture Jinyang in one breath. He even made preparations to divide his troops and advance lightly in order to cooperate with the plan originally formulated by Cao Cao to the greatest extent possible. If more cavalrymen could be dragged in the northeast of the river, of course, it would be equivalent to reducing Cao Cao's pressure and creating more opportunities for Cao Cao to break through Tongguan.
Therefore, Xiahou Dun was preparing that if he failed, he might sacrifice the 2,000 people he commanded to attack the civil servant camp outside Jinyang City. In fact, it was somewhat similar to a battle against the enemy. Xiahou Dun chose to attack the civil servant camp first, and the most important thing was not to capture the city in one fell swoop, but to obtain the supplies hoarded in the civil servant camp first...
What Xiahou Dun didn't expect was that he actually defeated Jinyang!
In fact, if Cui Jun could clearly judge the number of Cao's army at that time and adjust his strategy in time, leading his personal guards to engage in street battles with Xiahou Dun's Cao's army, and sending people to the surrounding areas to contact the troops and collect the remaining troops, then Cui Jun, who had an absolute advantage in numbers, may not have no hope of victory when facing Xiahou Dun's attack.
Unfortunately, not everyone has a perspective of God, and not everyone can have a small portable radar that marks the combat power comparison between the enemy and us. Cui Jun, who is in the fog of war, has no idea how many Cao's army is outside the city, nor why Jinyang fell. When he heard the word "city breaking", he inevitably became panicked and angry and unwilling to accept reality. After discovering that Cao's army really entered the city, he instinctively wanted to avoid it.
What a gentleman, right?
This kind of escape is of course extremely ridiculous.
If the ships survived and died, the simple people in China would still have more respect and less scolding to the captain who died on the ship and sank with the ships. Even if the captain had made a bad decision before, the ship hit the floe and killed many lives.
The surname Shi who died on the boat, and the surname Tang who ran away.
Did Cui Jun think that he would run away?
He had never thought about it.
At least he had never thought about it before the city was broken.
If he thought about it, he would definitely be a little prepared, but he really wasn't ready at all.
If it is on weekdays, Cui Jun will also whip, criticize, ridicule, and ridicule this behavior of "just want to escape when the disaster is approaching", and also express that one must have a sense of responsibility, a sense of justice, a courage to take responsibility for the world, etc.
Just like some people in later generations who were stolen by thieves, they cursed the thief with the most vicious words in anger, and then turned around and read the pirated novel with peace of mind.
This is a human being!
Officials are also human beings, and ordinary people. They do not separate their emotions and desires when they become officials. Even after they take power, they will stimulate more desires. The high-profile arguments on the stage are endless, and the arrests are not only in the Han Dynasty.
This is just the instinct of human nature, and to overcome it, it requires great perseverance and determination. If it is slightly shaken, its position will collapse immediately.
Just like Cui Jun.
In a panic, Cui Jun did not think of fighting to the death, but instead took the guards to escape first.
After all, I have left the green mountains and I am not afraid of burning firewood, right?
Most of the Cui family's industries are in Jinyang, Taiyuan. When they want to invite their family to go with them, they will inevitably appear that this person wants to take this person away, and that person wants to carry that person. As a result, they are noisy and are really out of the mansion. Before they go far, they run into Cao's soldiers head-on.
When Cui Jun's groggy head was truly awake and he really realized, he had been arrested by Cao's soldiers.
Several Cao army soldiers tied their hands and feet together like pigs and pigs, dragging and raising them.
Cui Jun wanted to scold these Cao army soldiers for being humiliated, but he seemed to be choked in his throat and could not say anything.
I don't know how long I was dragged, but I heard someone giving orders with a Shandong accent. Cui Jun tried hard to look up and saw that he was dragged to the Jinyang lobby again. However, now the owner has changed in the lobby. He listened to the shouts with Shandong accent and tried to raise his head, but he saw Wen Cheng's humble attitude bent down and bowed his back, and he couldn't help but feel angry.
Wen Cheng, a man from Wen.
Previously, there were many cases of Wang Ying and Wang's smuggling in Taiyuan, but at the end, Wen Cheng saw that the situation was not good, so he abandoned the car to protect the general, surrendered himself, and exempted from the death penalty. He paid a large amount of fines. He almost cleared his family's fortune and was exempted from punishment. He was guilty in Jinyang City and engaged in some trivial matters...
『Wen Cheng…六…』
Cui Jun suddenly realized that it must be Wen Cheng and the spies of Cao Jun who had sex!
Some of the inexplicable rumors and messy things in Jinyang City are mostly inseparable from Wen Cheng!
Why didn't he kill him?
Cui Jun would never admit that Wen Cheng gave enough money at that time...
Just hate, regret!
Wen Cheng had already seen Cui Jun being tied up and dragged into the lobby. His mouth was raised like a hook, and he was secretly happy in his heart, Cui Jun, you have today too!
Behind the table where Cui Jun was originally sitting, Xiahou Dun was now sitting. Wen Cheng was obviously cooperating with Xiahou Dun to count the document book and investigate the document.
"Puff", Cui Jun was thrown into the lobby.
Cui Jun stretched his neck desperately and saw that the Cao army soldiers around him had occupied the inside and outside the lobby, as if there were all Cao army soldiers, and he felt a little shocked. Xiahou Dun seemed to be far more powerful than he thought.
Why is this the case?
Cui Jun turned his head, but met Wen Cheng's smile-like expression.
Wen Cheng turned his head slightly. Although he was facing Xiahou Dun, Cui Jun felt that Wen Cheng was looking down at him and mocking him...
"Traitor!" Cui Jun couldn't help but get angry, blurted out, and looked at him, "Traitor! I should have killed you according to the law! I'm so sad...
The Cao army soldiers stepped on Cui Jun and suppressed his anger.
People are often so strange that they don’t show anything to the powerful, but they are angry and insulted at the same weak, especially when they see that the person who was weaker than them is now climbing onto their own heads...
In this world, do things really do according to the truth?
Hearing Cui Jun's roar, Wen Cheng glanced at Cui Jun with his eyes squinted, his lips curled up like a hook, and he did not refute or get angry. Instead, he continued to report the documentary matters to Xiahou Dun.
Xiahou Dun listened, but didn't look at Cui Jun, just like a decoration in the lobby.
Cui Jun tried to turn his head to see Xiahou Dun's appearance, but was stepped on by the soldiers beside him, so he could not struggle, and could only see the feet coming and going.
Pairs of them were either covered with mud or were humble and simple feet trampled on the lobby.
It was like stepping on Cui Jun's self-esteem, trampling into mud bit by bit.
After a while, I heard a burst of laughter coming from outside the lobby, and then some soldiers of Cao's army cheered, as if they were shocking.
Cui Jun looked up as much as possible and saw a Cao army military academy rushed into the lobby, claiming that he had taken down some granaries and obtained some spoils. Then, with the cheers of Cao army soldiers, people kept coming in and out.
From time to time, some Cao army soldiers came in with their heads and threw them directly on the lobby floor, rolling gurglingly, blood staining everywhere, and even one or two heads rolled in front of Cui Jun, pale and dead fish-like eyes staring at Cui Jun, as if questioning Cui Jun silently.
Cui Jun was frightened and closed his eyes tightly.
Close your eyes and you will be unable to see anything.
If you can't see it, it's almost like nothing exists, so you don't have to answer those questions.
I don’t know how long it took, some tremors came from the floor, and it seemed that someone had walked over and stopped in front of Cui Jun.
The surroundings suddenly became silent, and the complicated sounds disappeared.
Cui Jun slowly opened his eyes, raised his head, and saw Xiahou Dun walking in front of him.
Xiahou Dun had no smile on his face, and there was only coldness in his gloomy eyes.
Cui Jun suddenly felt the hair on his back standing up, and quickly lowered his head, not daring to look at it again.
Someone came up and helped Cui Jun up.
Cui Jun raised his eyes a little gratefully, but saw Wen Cheng.
What is very strange is that Cui Jun did not feel any insults because of this at this moment, and even his anger towards Wen Cheng was not as strong as before.
"Envoy Cui, now that Jinyang City is broken, you have lost your territory..." Wen Cheng said slowly, "The Prime Minister leads the emperor's imperial edict to command a million troops, and destroys the thieves and rebels for only a moment... Do you want to die or live?"
When Wen Cheng said this, his head was slightly raised.
Looking from Cui Jun's perspective, I saw that Wen Cheng's chin and nose area seemed to be larger than his forehead. Some nose hairs were exposed in the two black nostrils. The whites of the upper eye were very large, but the eyelid seemed to have shrunk a lot...
Cui Jun had never seen Wen Cheng look like this before. He was very familiar with the back of Wen Cheng's head, but he was very unfamiliar with Wen Cheng's nostrils.
Wen Cheng's mouth smiled again, and he raised it to the side.
Cui Jun had never seen Wen Cheng laugh like this in front of him.
Now……
In the Han Dynasty, people who were not good at appearance were not even able to be officials.
The reason why Wen Cheng was able to escape after committing an incident was that he was not even able to escape from his beautiful appearance, but Cui Jun had never seen Wen Cheng have such a face, like a wolf.
"When did you... contact Prime Minister Cao?" Cui Jun asked.
Although Cui Jun was a little stupid when he asked this in front of Xiahou Dun, under such circumstances, Cui Jun still asked.
Wen Cheng glanced at Xiahou Dun slightly, and saw that Xiahou Dun had no objection, so he smiled, but the sarcasm in the smile became even stronger, "It's very early... It's just that the nobleman Cui Jun is troublesome..."
Wen Cheng couldn't help but think of many names that endured humiliation and finally succeeded. Perhaps King Goujian of Yue was ranked at the top of these names. After all, in order to escape from the sin, he even handed over his own manor and didn't even have a place to worship his ancestors. He could only place a table in the embarrassing small hall at the end of the year.
Every New Year, Wen Cheng would cry secretly under the spirit card of his ancestors and burst into tears.
This year, no need. Wen Cheng will soon get his original manor back and even get more...
No one is willing to lose it, especially if it loses it after it is gained, the pain will double.
When Wen Cheng felt that he could not get more from Fei Qian, he naturally turned to Cao Cao.
The reason why Cui Jun kept Wen Cheng was not that he really felt how capable Wen Cheng was, or that he had a relationship with Wen Cheng, but that he wanted to buy a horse bone with a daughter. After all, Wen Cheng was also one of the natives of Taiyuan. Keeping Wen family represented Cui Jun’s gentle attitude towards the natives of Taiyuan, showing that he was the best supporter under Fei Qian’s strict laws. Unfortunately...
Is it normal to be an official?
The above suppresses the superiors and deceives the superiors and hides the subordinates, and makes profits from them, without taking any risks. If you speak beautifully, you either push the responsibility to the superiors or put it down to the subordinates. You must do it when you say that there is a red-headed article, but you never publicize the content of the article. If you are slapped in the chest, you will be able to cry and get the benefits if you can.
Cui Jun called his father a badass, but when it was his turn to be in power, he didn't think that Cui Hou would be so bad as to make money.
Wen Cheng thought Cui Jun was ridiculous. Wen's family has always been loyal to the Emperor of Han, and Fei Qian is now a thief, so what's wrong with him joining Cao's family? What's more, Wen's family has always read Shandong classics and advocates the way of modern literature and classics. Now Qinglong Temple suddenly says that modern literature should be abolished and needs to be revised. Doesn't it mean that his previous ten or twenty years of hard study were in vain?
How many years has Fei Qian been to Shangdang, Northland?
How many years has it been?
Now Wen still follows the emperor's edict, so he has become a "traitor"?
Who is the real "traitor"?
"The Han Dynasty was orthodox in the east, and the sea was surrounded by all rivers, how could it be unrest?! Fei thieves were blocked from Guanzhong and did things against each other, how could it be unrest?! Rivers and rivers flowed into the sea, which was the general trend of the world! Cui Jun, finally asked you, are you going to prosper with the trend? Or do you die against the trend? Think about yourself and your family! Wife, children, old and young, all in your thoughts!"
Wen Cheng persuaded him to surrender to the last sentence, his voice was high, his eyes were burning, and he stared at the expression on Cui Jun's face.
Cui Jun was a little hideous at first, but his face soon became darker.
Wen Cheng curled the corners of his mouth again, sneered, then turned his body sideways, bowed slightly to Xiahou Dun.
Silence is also an attitude.
The keyboard warrior is brave on the Internet and silent in reality.
Cui Jun is brave when he is free and cowardly in front of swords and guns.
This is a person...
Cui Jun faced Xiahou Dun, silent, and his body shook. After a while, he finally lowered his head, bent down, and gave a big gift on the floor, "Sin... the sinner Cui Jun, wishes... to return to the Han Dynasty... to the Prime Minister...
Xiahou Dun looked at Cui Jun who was kneeling on the ground, and finally smiled, stepped forward and pulled Cui Jun with his own hands, "Envoy Cui was very wise and abandoned the darkness and turned to the light. This is a blessing for the Han Dynasty!"
The strong smell of blood on Xiahou Dun's body hit Cui Jun's nose, making Cui Jun's legs a little weak.
Cui Jun was not a stubborn person who would rather die than surrender. When he was young, he mocked his father for spending money to buy an official position. After his father found out, he was furious and waved his knot to beat Cui Jun. Cui Jun ran away immediately, and made a sensation to defend his escape. As a son, he first spoke ill of his father to scold his father, but then his father refused to accept punishment after he got angry, so he found an excuse for himself to run away...
Xiahou Dun held Cui Jun's arm and his eyes were slightly cold. "Envoy Cui, the towns and counties around Jinyang, need Cui to go and recruit surrender together to avoid weapons and disasters... I wonder if Envoy Cui is willing?"
Cui Jun gurgled twice in his throat, as if he wanted to refuse, but when he spoke, he became willing...
Xiahou Dun waved his hand and asked his personal guard to take Cui Jun down to the surrounding area of ​​Jinyang to recruit surrender.
This is a set of effective models and a method commonly used on Yuan Shao's territory.
When Yuan Shao, the chief of the Yuan family, died, there were chaos. When Cao Cao marched into Jizhou, he could almost say that he did not suffer any decent resistance. When most of the local gentry and powerful people in Jizhou saw that Cao's army came, they replaced the flag on the top of the city...
This model is actually a feudal bad habit and an inevitable choice for local tyrants.
