The changes in Shandong have not been reflected in Guanzhong for a while, but Fei Qian in Guanzhong has welcomed a new guest, a guest from Sichuan and Shu, Zhang Song.
Is Zhang Song ugly?
It can't be said that he is ugly, but maybe because he was born in Sichuan, Zhang Song is not as tall as people from Jizhou and other places. His figure is a little thin and thin, and his eyes are too shrewd, which makes him somewhat let down.
Some people find it difficult to interact with others.
Of course, Zhang Song himself did not have such a consciousness. On the contrary, when he arrived in Chang'an City, he seemed very contented. In the post station, he was not polite at all when he summoned people from the post station.
However, for Fei Qian, what interested him was the group of people from Sichuan and Sichuan represented by Zhang Song, not Zhang Song himself.
"I've seen General Zhengxi..." Although Zhang Song is small, he wears a lot of robes. There are many outer cloaks, long coats, middle coats and small coats. There are many layers on the collar, which is very ceremonial.
.
On the contrary, Fei Qian and his group may have stayed in Hu for a relatively long time, perhaps because they were influenced by some novel clothes invented by Fei Qian himself, or perhaps the temperature difference between the Sichuan-Shu region and the Bingbei region is indeed relatively large.
, so my habits are also different, and my clothes are not as formal as Zhang Song's. He wears so many clothes, and it doesn't seem to have such a grand feeling.
"No gifts, just take a seat!" Fei Qian waved his hand and asked someone to give Zhang Song a brocade cushion.
"Thank you, General Zhengxi." Zhang Song's eyes fell on the brocade cushion. He couldn't help but froze for a moment, and then he cupped his hands and said, "This cushion is rich and beautiful, it is a doctor's basket. I am of low rank and cannot use it..."
Before Fei Qian could say anything, Pang Tong suddenly became unhappy and said: "Since you have spoken politely, you should know that Ao cannot be long, desire cannot be followed, ambition cannot be fulfilled, and happiness cannot be extreme. Now I see the sage in front of me.
, but speak disrespectfully, is this the way of Sichuan?"
Zhang Song said "Oh", then looked at Pang Tong and asked knowingly: "Who are you?"
Although Pang Tong's attainments in scriptures were higher than Fei Qian's, he still lacked some experience. Seeing Zhang Song ask, he subconsciously opened his mouth to answer, but Fei Qian stretched out his hand to stop him and said
: "Your envoy is here, and you are here to discuss the classics? If you want to discuss the classics, you might as well go to Shoushan Academy..."
Zhang Song couldn't help but hesitate, his momentum suddenly weakened, he raised his hands and said: "Of course it is for military affairs..."
"In that case, please take a seat... How can a mere brocade mat be more important than military matters?" Fei Qian pointed and said unceremoniously.
"Wei..." Zhang Song was stunned for a while, and finally said with his hands raised, he sat down and said nothing more about the brocade.
Pang Tong snorted slightly and stopped talking.
Fei Qian looked around and smiled. There was no way, the noble children of the Han Dynasty had such virtues. Zhang Song mentioned brocade mats in his words, but in fact he did not just refer to brocade mats, but something else.
However, Fei Qian was unwilling to continue Zhang Song's topic and fell into the rhythm that Zhang Song had prepared. So he simply cut off the theory between Pang Tong and Zhang Song, and then directly talked about military affairs, that is, telling Zhang Song that even if
So what if Zhang Song has the upper hand on the classics?
Zhang Song obviously also understood Fei Qian's subtext, so in the end Zhang Song gave up his behavior of continuing to go around in circles with Fei Qian. After all, he came here to talk about things, not to discuss scriptures.
"General Zhengxi Mingjian," Zhang Songgong said after a while, "Foreign ministers came all the way and saw that Sichuan and Sichuan are now in ruins, and the people have left their homes, and they really can't bear it. It has been said in ancient times that those who attack will not be killed.
If you don't kill Li Li, you won't get two cents, I don't know what you think of conquering the west?"
Pang Tong, who was standing by, seemed a little unable to listen, so he couldn't help but want to speak and looked at Fei Qian.
Fei Qianxu stretched out one hand. Well, he could only stretch out one hand because the other hand was still bandaged. He signaled to Pang Tong that it was okay, and then said to Zhang Song: "What is going on in Sichuan?"
, I don’t know, but...here comes someone! Let’s get Xu Yuanzhi’s cousin!”
Immediately, an attendant on the side took Xu Shu's cousin out of the shelf and gave it to Fei Qian.
Fei Qian took it, shook it off with one hand, and put it on the table with a bang. He also showed some momentum, "...Since entering Hanchang, he has implemented the land administration in Guanzhong and changed the tithe to twenty-one.
The corvee is also eliminated and it is included in the tax. The people are all happy and praise it as good..."
Fei Qian raised his head, glanced at Zhang Song, then lowered his head and continued to read: "... allocate 100,000 stones of millet and millet to stabilize the warehouses, build porridge houses, and lend green crops. In today's Hanchang, the wild people
They all returned and their families followed suit. Today, there are more than 1,300 households in total, and more than 400 households have been added, all of which are due to the New Deal..."
Fei Qian shook Xu Shu's expression, then smiled and said nothing.
"This..." Zhang Song rolled his eyes and couldn't think of anything to say for a while.
Facts are facts. Zhang Song can also forcefully argue that this statement is wrong or something, but that would be equivalent to falling behind. After all, Zhang Song originally acted in accordance with the fine traditions of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and stood on the commanding heights of righteousness.
Conducting a debate, but once it turns into a debate on the specific authenticity of a watch, it actually means that Zhang Song's original strategy has failed.
It’s not that Fei Qian didn’t know what Zhang Song meant. Zhang Song’s words came from the scriptures. It turned out that during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, something happened when the State of Wu attacked the State of Chen. At that time, the army of the State of Wu attacked the State of Chen, because the State of Chen was considered
Although the country in the early Spring and Autumn Period was not strong in national power, it was still the surname Gui passed down by Duke Zhou. Therefore, many people felt sad that such a country was attacked by Wu Yue, who was located in the southern barbarian region at that time...
As the saying goes, they are barbarians from the north and mountain people from the south.
Of course, Zhang Song does not think that Sichuan and Shu are marginal areas. Instead, he thinks that the land of Sichuan and Shu retains a large number of ancient heritages. This is naturally a time of difference of opinion. Fei Qian will not say anything about this, nor does he bother to talk to him.
Zhang Song made a moral argument, but just took out the numerical value and put it in front of Zhang Song.
The Spring and Autumn Period not only had many righteous people, but also many debaters.
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Dazai Pi made some clever arguments that made King Wu Fu Cha embarrassed for a while. It was amazing. Maybe Zhang Song had the same plan. Firstly, he could use this to become famous, and secondly, he could suppress Fei Qian's enthusiasm.
Momentum, the third aspect is Liu Zhang’s turn to speak for.
Zhang Song's remarks are not wrong to a certain extent. After all, in the Han Dynasty, there was still some emphasis on rules in fighting. As the saying goes, divisions must be famous, otherwise, even if they win the battle, they will not be convinced; if they attack cities and seize territory,
There must be an explanation for burning, killing, looting, capturing prisoners, etc. Otherwise, you will be called an "unjust teacher."
Therefore, at this point in time, there is basically no such thing as "when you are called, you can fight". Most of them need to swear an oath before going out for battle. The main content of the oath is nothing more than a list of various names and sayings.
That is to find reasons and excuses in order to convince those who participated in the war that this war action was an act of etiquette and justice.
Any war, no matter how grand the reason is, is actually a conflict of political interests. However, conflicts of interest are conflicts, and there must be some boundaries that cannot be crossed, such as the massacre of prisoners and civilians without any reason, without restrictions and without purpose.
Rape, robbery, seizing the old, weak, sick and disabled as hostages in city sieges, etc. Such inhumane actions cannot be offset by any grandiose excuse. : :
In a sense, war should also be a fair competition conducted according to certain rules. The name is important, but so are the rules.
Fei Qian suddenly remembered a book he had read in later generations. It was written by a Sichuanese. It started with a story about the Three Kingdoms, about Cao Cao's heart being black and shiny, Liu Bei's skin being as thick as a mountain, and Sun Quan's skin being both black and thick.
But it's not dark enough or thick enough, so in the end the three of them each got a side...
In a sense, what Master Li said is not wrong. After all, Cao Cao is indeed dark enough, Liu Bei is thick enough, and Sun Quan is dark and thick. Of course, in fact, these three people are also dark and thick, not to mention others.
After Liu Bei entered Sichuan, where did the money he rewarded his men come from? Did it fall from the sky? As a result, he gave too many rewards, which resulted in the Sichuan and Sichuan economic markets being in chaos. It took Brother Zhu nearly ten years to gradually recover.
"General Zhengxi is indeed extraordinary..." Zhang Song laughed, easing his embarrassment, "I heard about it in the past, and now that I have seen it, it is even more famous!"
Fei Qian smiled and said nothing. After all, he also knew that Zhang Song must have other things to say, and there was little point in going out of his way to be humble with other people's polite words.
Sure enough, Zhang Song did not continue to flatter, but changed his mind and said: "I wonder if General Zhengxi wants to take Sichuan and Shu, or maybe Sichuan and Shu?"
"Whatever you get, what you get?" Fei Qian looked at Zhang Song and didn't want to make the atmosphere too embarrassing, so he cooperated to a certain extent and did some flattering behaviors.
"If you want to take it, the army is wandering in the mountains, the transportation of money and food is difficult for cattle and horses, and the attack on the city is due to exhaustion... Do you want to get it..." Zhang Song said loudly, "A certain master also has no intention of disobeying the general who conquers the west, and is willing to fight with the general on this.
Let’s call off our troops and negotiate a peace... The people of Sichuan and Shu will be extremely grateful. In this way, the general can benefit and my lord can also be safe. Isn’t this the best of both worlds?”
Zhang Song is indeed a talent. It is rare to be able to tell such things in such a fresh and refined way. Perhaps all the previous plans were disrupted by Fei Qian, or perhaps he felt that those clichés could not achieve much effect. Zhang Song also
He said almost no confusing words, but expressed his intention extremely accurately.
Stop the troops twice.
It means that as long as Fei Qian does not attack Chengdu, everything will be fine. As for Hanchang and other places in Brazil County that have been occupied by Fei Qian, Zhang Song did not mention a word. The meaning of this is quite obvious.
In addition, Zhang Song also specially emphasized the people of Sichuan and Sichuan...
However, Fei Qian still has his own ideas.
Fei Qian was silent for a moment, then suddenly laughed and said: "This matter is of great importance, let me think about it... Zi Qiao came all the way, and it was hard work. I will hold a small banquet tomorrow to cleanse Zi Qiao, and I hope Zi Qiao will appreciate him...
…”
"General, Song will obey!" Zhang Song also knew that this matter could not be discussed in a day or two. Since he had expressed his intention and offered a price, no matter how hard Fei Qian was, he would naturally have to negotiate with his subordinates.
After some discussion, he naturally agreed with a smile, then said goodbye and left.
Fei Qian got up and sent him off, which was considered as a courtesy. As for this point, Fei Qian felt that there was no need to do what Cao Cao did. After all, there is no business and justice. Where Zhang Song went to Cao Cao in history, it was actually somewhat similar to today.
It is normal for his own family to be high. Cao Cao's possible choice back then was to ignore Zhang Song at all. As a result, Zhang Song lost face, so he lost his temper and immediately turned to Liu Bei.
For Cao Cao at that time in history, the land of Sichuan and Shu was indeed dispensable. After all, Cao Cao's base camp was in the Jizhou, Yuzhou, and Yanzhou areas, and the economic, cultural, and political centers were all in this area. Sichuan and Shu were located in remote areas, so even if they had obtained
It was just a nominal affiliation, and the actual effect was not great, so Cao Cao was not used to Zhang Song at all.
And Feiqian here is different from Cao Cao's time in history. For Feiqian now, Sichuan and Shu are an important grain production base. With the same manpower and the same acre of land, Sichuan and Shu produce grain.
It will probably be twice that of Bingbei Longyou, or even three times that of the Dujiangyan area near Chengdu. From now on, if Feiqian wants to develop in Guanzhong, then the food of Sichuan and Shu will become an indispensable factor.
A missing foundation.
The excess grain and grass in the land east of Taiyuan is used to supply the expenses of Beiyin Mountain, and the land in Hanzhong is used to supply the grain and grass gap in Guanzhong. This is Fei Qian's current situation. Of course, Guanzhong and Yinshan also produce grain, but one is consumed by Guanzhong itself.
It is large in itself, and the other thing is that it would be good to balance the expenditures in the early stage of Yinshan reclamation. Therefore, if Fei Qian wants to make some strategic reserves, it cannot be said that he will be very wealthy just relying on the existing grain and grass output.
In addition, due to the war between the north and the south in these years, some of the food and grass that had been concentrated before were basically consumed. If Fei Qian hadn't tried every means to get some oil to make up for the carbohydrate gap, maybe now Fei Qian had begun to appear on his territory.
Liangcao was panicked.
Therefore, the grain-producing land of Sichuan and Sichuan must be in your own hands to be truly safe. Computer version::/
"Lord, now..." Pang Tong asked from the side, "How should we deal with Zi Qiao's intention? Should we talk or..."
"Talk!" Fei Qian said with a smile, "Why not talk?"
Pang Tong raised his eyebrows, a little confused. After all, Fei Qian and Pang Tong told him two days ago that Huang Cheng would lead the mountain camp into Sichuan...
"Talk! How can we talk without fighting?" Fei Qian smiled. In later generations, there were many things to talk about while fighting. Naturally, he was not as rigid-minded as Pang Tong. "We haven't talked about it yet? Let Shuye step up the offensive.
, if we can have a fight, maybe it will be easier to negotiate!"
Pang Tong was suddenly enlightened and couldn't help but clasped his hands and laughed...
