Chapter 1540: Drawing fire from the bottom of the cauldron
Among the three families of Liu, Cao, and Sun, as their respective leaders, Liu Bei is the most tolerant, but it does not mean that Liu Bei can be tolerant without limit. Just like Liu Zhang, if it were placed in the place of the other two families, I am afraid that it would probably be
It was a certain death, but Liu Bei would still allow Liu Zhang to have a good death, as long as Liu Zhang didn't act weird.
Just like among the various units in later generations, there is no unit that does not have some people who talk nonsense every day, either complaining about this or making fun of that. However, for the leaders of these people, the handling methods are also different from the specific personnel arrangements.
There is a difference. If there are few people and there are no replacement candidates, most of them will tolerate it and pretend not to hear anything at worst. However, if the original position is very replaceable and there is no shortage of such people, just like Xu You, when it is time to kill
Just kill him.
Overall, Fei Qian is now better able to understand Liu Caosun's various operations...
It's like the present moment.
Du Hu, the king of the Han people, is now of some importance to Fei Qian, the general who conquered the west, but it is not very important. This point can be seen by the Guanghan nobles near Sichuan and Shu, so they dare to speak out.
If it were other people, such as Xu Shu, these guys would naturally shrink their heads and not be able to fart.
Of course, there are also quite a few interests involved.
In the past, the Ti people built villages deep in the mountains. These areas were not suitable for farming. Therefore, these Sichuan and Shu nobles did not care about the right and left, and generally lived in peace and had little influence on each other. However, if the Ti people go down the mountain,
Choosing a place to establish a village will inevitably lead to competition in areas with limited flat land in central Sichuan. Anyway, there is only so much land suitable for farming and close to water sources. If it is given to the people, there will naturally be less powerful nobles. In addition,
As a powerful right-wing nobleman, according to the practice of the Han Dynasty, he must also bear the responsibilities of collecting local taxes, disseminating administrative orders, and guarding local peace. Therefore, he does not have many benefits, but he also has to bear considerable responsibilities. Such things have
Who would be willing to take on the responsibility?
Therefore, under such conditions, it is a normal reaction for these powerful people in Sichuan to express their opposition to the situation where the Tao people go down to the mountains and choose a place to establish a stronghold without belonging to the local area.
Since it was a normal reaction, Fei Qian had already thought about it, so he said calmly: "When people go down to the mountains to establish a stronghold, they don't choose a place with mature fields, they don't take local posts, they don't put them under local control..."
After hearing this, the noble nobleman on the side relaxed his frown.
If you don’t choose ripe land, you won’t have to cede the land that originally belonged to these noble families for a long time. If you don’t insert local positions, then you won’t have to give up some local government positions. If you don’t put it under local control, it means you don’t have to take care of the people.
What kind of security, taxes, population, etc. are we responsible for?
In this way, although there are no additional benefits, at least nothing is lost, so there is no reason to object. General Zhengxi likes to toss, so let him go. These Sichuan and Shu nobles looked around and whispered
After getting the message right, they bowed their hands in unison and said, "General Zhengxi is very thoughtful, and we admire him!"
The wealthy nobles of Sichuan and Shu had no objections, but Duhu, the king of the barbarians, was dissatisfied. He snorted. After all, he was a barbarian, so he lacked some decoration. He said directly: "General! There is no mature land here, so what?
Going down the mountain? If so, it’s better to be comfortable on the mountain..."
"Chichi..." Among the powerful people from Sichuan and Sichuan, someone secretly laughed out loud.
From the perspective of the people, of course, the best operation is to allocate mature fields, which means that the people can get better settlement conditions as soon as they get off the mountain. Now that there is no mature land, it means that they have to reclaim land.
, so for people, this difficulty is indeed not small.
People come down from the mountains just to live a more comfortable and peaceful life than in the mountains. As a result, they have to build new buildings without having to do this or that, and they have to abandon the familiar things. Naturally, they are not willing to do so.
"Don't panic..." Fei Qian turned to comfort Duhu, the king of the people, and said, "Everyone here, which family's land has not been changed from raw fields to mature fields? Isn't it just a matter of one or two years? Besides, the king of the people doesn't want it.
I forgot, under a certain family, there are bachelors of agriculture and bachelors of engineering. The newly opened land is not better... If there is a shortage of farmland, cattle, horses, crops and seeds, you can also rent it to the king of people according to the old customs in Guanzhong...
If this is the case, what does the King of Clan have to worry about?"
The king of Jinren spoke straightforwardly, and Fei Qian also answered straightforwardly. Fei Qian had the confidence to be sure, but Liu Caosun did not at the moment. Even Yuan Shao did not dare to say such words, because he had a bachelor's degree in agriculture and a bachelor's degree in engineering.
, this is the only one, there is no other semicolon.
Du Hu, the king of the monks, thought for a while, and then his worries turned to joy. He stepped forward to thank General Zhengxi again, and then went back and explained to some other monks Li Gugulu, which immediately made the leaders of the monks smile with joy.
If it weren’t for Du Hu’s repeated restraints, I’m afraid he would just start singing and dancing on the spot...
Although the Sichuan and Shu nobles on the side felt that something was not right, they were not the ones who provided the money, seeds, and cattle and horses. Even if they wanted to object, they could not find any reason for the moment, and in the end they could do it on their own.
They looked at each other, speechless.
This way everyone is happy.
Isn’t the job of a team leader to point the direction, smooth the mud, balance interests, distribute work, and unite subordinates?
Is it simple?
not simple.
Because what Fei Qian is doing now is to let the people go down to the mountains and establish strongholds, which has given them a lot of benefits. In fact, this matter is not only for himself, but also for Liu Bei's Xia San Road...
To put it more politely, it is called drawing fire from the bottom of the cauldron.
…………………………
Qi County.
Wu Yixin won the title of a rebel general, but when he returned to his residence, he did not show much joy. Because Wu Yi knew that this was just a comforting message from Liu Bei, and it was not serious.
In exchange for the achievements of the Eight Classics, Liu Bei was also worried that Wu Yi was trying to pull out the firewood, causing the situation near Chengdu, Sichuan and Sichuan to be affected and collapse the entire war situation.
"Have you heard clearly?" Wu Yi was sitting in the hall without lighting the lamp. The setting sun shone weakly through the window lintel, leaving some mottled black shadows on Wu Yi's body.
"General Qi..." Wu Yi's confidant in the lobby lowered his head slightly and said in a deep voice, "I found some traces in the mountains and forests outside the city... I dug along the traces and found the remains of Xiao Gangzi and others.
Corpses..."
"..." Wu Yi was silent for a moment, "Have you found a letter from someone?"
"Not found."
"...This matter must not be spread to outsiders..." Wu Yi lowered his head, his face hidden under the mottled light and shadow, "...Also, please go and find out what troops were mobilized on the day Xiao Gangzi left the city...
"
"Only..." The confidant responded and then retreated.
Wu Yi sat silently in the lobby, staring at the newly placed seal and ribbon of the rebellious general on the table. He did not speak or smile, and remained motionless until the sun set and the surrounding area began to darken, just like a statue.
.
After a long time, Wu Yi suddenly straightened his waist, then stretched out his hand, stayed in the air for a moment, and then immediately brushed everything on the table to the ground...
The bronze seal of the "Pushing the Rebellious General" bounced on the wooden floor with a clang, and turned over, revealing the five newly carved seal characters of "Pushing the Rebellious General Seal". There was a hint of hasty chiseling between the strokes.
Seals of the Han Dynasty are divided into two categories: seals and seals. Most official positions in the Han Dynasty are called seals. For example, Qixian County has the "Qixian Magistrate Seal", but only the general seal of the Han Dynasty is customarily called "Zhang", but
Not absolutely, for example, a serious general position such as "General of the Conquest of the West" is "General of the Conquest of the West Fei Seal", not "General of the Conquest of the West Seal".
Most of the so-called "general seals" are like the ones Wu Yifu dropped to the ground. Because they are not in the rank, they do not add a surname. In addition, in the Han Dynasty, such general positions were sealed at any time.
Cancellation, sometimes in the military formation, is a temporary seal, used to determine the level and scope of the army, so it is also called the "so-and-so general seal". Of course, if you have served for a long time, it can be regarded as a lifelong seal.
It is a title or an honorary title, and it can also be changed to "General Seal of So-and-So", such as the more famous "Seal of General Du Liao".
The general seal was also temporarily added, so it was mostly cast and carved temporarily, so the corners were naturally a little rounded.
Wu Yi stood in front of the seal of the rebel general, his eyes lowered, wondering what he was thinking about. He was silent for a long time, and then he didn't pick it up or step on it, just like he met a small stone in the middle of the road.
, directly raised his legs to cross the seal, put his hands behind his back, and turned to the back hall.
As the sun set, the black shadow gradually began to spread from one side of the lobby. It seemed very slow, but in fact it was very fast. With a firmness that could not be denied or doubted, it covered the surface of the rebel general badge on the ground.
body, then gulped and swallowed.
…………………………
Fei Qian, the general of Zhengxi, is far from the only one who wants to draw money from under the cauldron.
As far away as Xuxian County, Dong Cheng also felt that it was a very good choice to take action under the hood.
From a certain point of view, Dong Cheng can be regarded as a relative of the Han Dynasty, but he was very unhappy as a relative. Looking through the glorious history of the relatives of the Han dynasties, not to mention the Wei family, the Huo family, and the Dou family
Well, even the second-tier Wang family and Liang family can't compare. Even He Jin...
Pooh!
Thinking about a certain Dong Cheng, compared with that brainless butcher He Jin, wouldn't it mean that he has lost his identity?
Why did He Jin die? Was it because he was indecisive and kept making decisions?
Dong Cheng felt that now was the time to make a decision.
A few days ago, Dong Guiren was happy. Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty took advantage of this opportunity and made Dong Cheng the general of chariots and cavalry. Of course, he also made Fei Qian the general of fat cavalry...
Putting aside Fei Qian, who was far away in Guanzhong Sichuan, for the time being, Dong Cheng, the newly minted cavalry general, fell into a saint-like sense of emptiness after experiencing a brief period of excitement.
Who am I? Where am I? What do I do?
The three philosophical questions have troubled people from ancient times to the present, and naturally Dong Cheng is included.
To be honest, during the three to four hundred years of the Han Dynasty, there were some extremely useless relatives, but most of them were the relatives whose families were extremely famous and powerful. Of course, after their peak, many of them were fired and executed by the Man family, and many of the Nine Clans were killed.
, But, it’s like a non-professional athlete who wants to cross the road directly and show off his hurdles skills instead of walking on a crosswalk or an overpass. He knows in his mind that there are risks in doing so, but he thinks he can avoid it, or he
I feel like this kind of risk will not happen to me...
The causes of many resentments are sometimes very simple, so simple that they are jaw-dropping.
What caused Dong Cheng's overwhelming resentment was actually a car.
Dong Cheng felt that he, a chariot and cavalry general, didn’t even have a decent fucking chariot, so he was called a fucking chariot and cavalry general?
Although Xu County is now nominally the residence of the Emperor and the political center of the Han Dynasty, in fact, this center is not very prosperous, at least at this moment.
Because General Zhengxi, well, maybe he will now be called General Fat Cavalry, Fei Qiang and Bei Guanzhong made business prosperous, which naturally brought about an economic siphon effect, causing a lot of money and materials to be concentrated in Bei Guanzhong.
Guanzhong and Xu County are naturally not as wealthy as they used to be in history.
Of course, even Xu County in history was not necessarily so lenient. Historical records indicate that when Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty needed to travel, he could not even find four horses of the same color to pull his cart. Many court ministers had to travel
They all relied on bullock carts, not even horses.
Now, Wancheng, which was originally supposed to be in the pocket, has become the private land of the Huang family, the relative of General Zhengxi. The Hedong area, which was originally supposed to be inclined to Cao Cao, has also become the grain-producing area of General Zhengxi. Even Heluo Hongnong Yang
The family also followed the expedition to the west instead of joining Cao Cao as in history, so Cao Cao's overall economy naturally dropped by more than one level.
In addition, Cao Cao is currently intensively preparing for a duel with Yuan Shao to compete for the dominance of the entire north. All material and financial resources will naturally be inclined to the military, and it is impossible to use any extra things to give to the officials of the Han Dynasty as honorifics.
Things, ceremonial travel.
Even Cao Cao himself rode in an ox cart most of the time, so why would Dong Cheng be an exception?
But the problem is, Dong Cheng doesn't feel that way.
This big man has lived for three to four hundred years, and still has his relatives who make bullock carts? And even the bullock carts are half new, repaired, and even some tattered generals who ride on them?
It's okay to say that the country's affairs are difficult, so I can understand it. If you don't open a government, you won't be able to open a government. The ceremony of the general's chariots and cavalry should be kept simple, but at least you can buy a more decent car for me!
But look at this oxcart, not to mention it is old. On the crossbar above the cart, you can actually see the wormholes eaten by insects! Dong Cheng could see it every time he got on the cart and sat down.
He felt that these wormholes were like the cracked mouth of others laughing at him, and those worms seemed to be gnawing at his heart!
