The third year of Taixing, the first day of March.
Suitable for offering sacrifices, praying for blessings, honoring gods, traveling, seeking wealth, taboos for building beams, building houses, burials, attending appointments, litigating...
Overall, it should be a day that is neither good nor bad.
At three quarters to three o'clock, the sky has begun to gradually lighten up. If it is midsummer, it will light up earlier, and it may even be bright at the beginning of the day.
General Fei Qian of the Hussars will hold a meeting in the main entrance hall of the General's Mansion. The court meeting is the emperor's term. For people like Fei Qian, it is called Dianmao, or assembly.
Zhang Liao stood in the queue of generals with his head in his pocket, looking up at the front.
The square in front of the Yamen Hall of the Hussars General's Mansion seems to have been carefully renovated. It was originally a simple slope plane, but now it is also carved with patterns. The originally bare square now also has vermillion tables erected on both sides, with carvings on it.
There are vivid animals and birds, which seem to be jumping down or spreading their wings at the next moment.
Although there are inevitably gaps on the ground paved with blue and white stone, the stones are very smooth and you can't feel the height difference when you step on them.
There are also interlaced gold and silver decorations under the eaves of the lobby, and the shining colored glazes and jade stones all seem to display the financial and material resources under the rule of the Hussars General, showing off the wealth to the people around him.
From Bingbei to Longyou, and then to the snow area, Zhang Liao returned to Chang'an after a long time. It felt like he had arrived in a new place.
It is said that at the beginning, General Fei Qian of the Hussars did not like spending so much money to decorate a lobby square. However, Pang Tong's words left the Hussars speechless and he acquiesced to this large-scale renovation.
No one dared to spread Pang Tong's original words without permission, but the general meaning was vaguely mentioned, that is, if the hussars were just like ordinary people, then why would they be hussars?
hehe……
This Pang Shiyuan.
But this guy is not wrong. After all, Zhang Liao now also feels that there should be some distinction between people and things. It is impossible for everything to be equal.
Do the Han people who were born in the frontiers want to be equal to the Han people who were born in Luoyang, Chang'an? How to be equal?
Do the barbarians living outside the Han Dynasty want to be equal to the Han people inside the Han Dynasty? How to be equal?
The environment is different, and the things they have to face are also different, so they cannot be equal. Zhang Liao feels that inequality is normal, but equality is abnormal. It is a distorted concept, just like asking Zhang Liao to ignore his soldiers, and then
Distributing food and grass to hostile barbarians is simply an unreasonable madness.
In retrospect, Zhang Liao also came to Chang'an when he was traveling as a young man, but Chang'an back then was lifeless. There were always people who could not survive outside the city gate, and then they put grass signs on their heads.
There are people who sell their lives cheaply, men, women, young and old...
You can even see people drowning in the Wei River every day, and then their corpses are swollen and shiny white, with their belly, hands and feet gnawed by fish and shrimps exposed, swaying down the water.
And under such circumstances, there are still some nobles and nobles singing loudly and riding horses across the Five Tombs...
From that moment on, Zhang Liao understood that the world was not equal, and he should not expect that the day of equality would come to him. The only thing he could rely on was the gun in his hand and the horse at his hip.
Therefore, Zhang Liao later joined the army.
However, what happened next far exceeded Zhang Liao's expectation. First, Ding Yuan took Lu Bu with him to the south. As a result, he witnessed the biggest absurd show in the Han Dynasty in Zuoyang, and then he also saw it with his own eyes.
Northern and Western Liang attacked each other, and Chang'an was in turmoil...
Then he arrived next to Fei Qian.
To this day.
Although Zhang Liao is now a general, Zhang Liao does not mind at all if he obtains a higher-level general position, such as...
People will never stop climbing for power.
Zhang Liao glanced at Xu Huang, who was standing in front of him.
Xu Huang was ready to move Zhang Liao to the front before, but Zhang Liao refused. Zhang Liao has upward ambitions, but he also has the sense to control his ambitions. Only when a person sees the road under his feet clearly can he walk more steadily, just like
The one behind me is the same...
Zhao Yun Zhao Zilong.
I originally thought that my military exploits in the snow area were already very brilliant, but if I compare them with Zhao Yun, they seem to be a little worse...
This guy is indeed powerful. This skill is comparable to that guy Tai Shici's surprise attack on Yecheng!
By the way, Taishi Ci is still stationed in Hangu and has not returned to Chang'an.
Well, I almost forgot, there is another guy in Sichuan and Shu who is also quite powerful. It is said that it will take almost a month to arrive in Chang'an...
Calculating it this way, the pressure is still quite high. Zhang Liao smiled slightly, but when has Zhang ever been afraid? Under this hussar, he still has to look at Zhang!
……(?·??·?)??……
Fei Qian solemnly held such a civil and military meeting after the Qinglong Temple lecture. In fact, it was a bit of a show of strength. After all, the Qinglong Temple lecture was regarded as a literary skill, and military strategy was still in the chaotic situation it is now.
, which was more valued by the gentry children of the Han Dynasty.
During these days, Fei Qian was indeed in the center of Guanzhong and did not move. Not only does this not mean that the men and horses under the Qiusi had no achievements, but through the aftermath of this Qinglong Temple lecture, the merits obtained by Zhang Liao, Zhao Yun and others could be
Broadcast it and let more people know.
Coupled with the news of Yuan Tan's death that came a few days ago, Fei Qian felt a little sick. When did the princes from all over the Han Dynasty begin to assassinate each other, and even used this as their main method
Already?
If assassination is useful, wouldn't those extreme elements who are fond of assassination in later generations be able to unify the world? Assassination is one method, but it does not mean that all methods include assassination.
For such shoddy means, the best way is to suppress it openly, just like the strategy game of later generations. If the airdrops of the opponent's team and the team over there disrupt the steps, causing the army to rush back and forth, then even if it is eliminated
If these airdrop teams are defeated, the gain is still not worth the loss. It is better to put strong pressure on the opponent from the front, so that the opponent does not dare to distract him at all.
But this time, Fei Qian planned to simply take advantage of the victory of Zhang Liao, Zhao Yun, Wei Yan and others in the surrounding areas to hold a military parade. Firstly, it would show force, secondly, it would put pressure on the surrounding areas, and thirdly, it would also give points to his subordinates.
Give it a try and boost your morale...
Of course, there are still some formalities to go through, such as determining the number of prisoners to be sent to Xu County, the time, etc., and then attaching a petition for merit and having the emperor stamp it...
Fei Qian also knew that he was probably trying to increase the number of titles, such as adding some more restaurants, etc., because neither Liu Xie nor Cao Cao could come up with anything practical, but his subordinates
The space is still relatively large, and this time no matter what, I must give my subordinates some serious general positions.
Huang Xu walked closer and said: Lord, everyone is here...
Fei Qian nodded, checked his clothes and armor one last time, then walked around the corridor and headed to the front lobby.
The sound of drums was heavy and vibrating over the General's Mansion, and Fei Qian walked into the lobby amidst the last beat of the drums.
I’ve met my lord!
Have you seen a hussar!
A group of people bowed their heads in worship.
Fei Qian sat down, waved his hand, and said with a smile: No need to be polite... Looking at the civil and military officials in the room, it seemed that Fei Qian had the illusion of controlling the world, but Fei Qian quickly came to his senses and asked Pang Tong to start reading.
Check the merits accumulated by everyone during these years...
Fei Qian had naturally read what Pang Tong said earlier, so as he listened, he became a little distracted and suddenly remembered about Yuan Tan.
The matter of Yuan Tan should be put aside for the time being, but this does not mean that Fei Qian does not pay attention to it, but is prepared to handle it together with subsequent matters. As for the murderer of Yuan Tan, Pang Tong and Xun You both believe that Sun Quan is the most likely. Secondly,
It’s Jingzhou…
Through the space in the lobby, Fei Qian's eyes were distant, and an idea came to his mind, Sun Zhongmou, it seems that this name really makes sense. This guy is indeed different from Cao Mengde and Liu Xuande... This should be a
Coincidence or necessity?
……╭(′▽`)╯??……
Sun Zhongmou...
Almost at the same time, in Baqiu, Jiangdong, Zhou Yu also murmured and then fell silent.
Zhou Yu lost a lot of weight. Not to mention anything else, his slightly pointed chin alone showed a special kind of beauty and refinement, which was completely different from Pang Tong's three-tiered chin.
Governor... Huang Gai frowned, and his gray and white hairs were like steel needles sprouting out one by one. My lord... what he said this time was hardly like a human master...
I don't know if Sun Quan was influenced by the Jiangdong nobles, or because he felt that the cost of assassination was low but the results could be huge, or for some other reason, he transferred many people and sent them to Jingzhou, Yuzhou and other places.
At the beginning, perhaps only Zhou Yu was aware of it, but as the number of manpower deployed increased, even Huang Gai, who had been in the army, heard about the news and came to Zhou Yu with dissatisfaction. After all, it was Zhou Yu who was there back then.
It was his strong praise that allowed Sun Quan to ascend to this position.
Zhou Yu did not expect that Sun Quan would be so heartbroken, or even worse.
Sun Ce died in an assassination. This is not wrong. It also means that Sun Quan can choose to take revenge, but it does not mean that Sun Quan can use this incident as a trigger and continue to use assassination methods.
Sun Ce was too proud and thought that because of his martial arts skills, even if he met an assassin, there would be no problem. However, he did not expect that it was precisely because of such negligence that the assassin had a chance. Normally, as long as it comes
Those at the level of princes should be cautious when traveling, not to mention that after the first assassination fails, the success rate in the future will become smaller and smaller.
So Zhou Yu thought that Sun Quan would give up such methods after failure, but he did not expect that Sun Quan was still unusually persistent in this aspect.
What can Zhang Zibu say?
Zhou Yu asked. In order to avoid suspicion, Zhou Yu now lives in Baqiu and is relatively isolated. If he doesn't take the initiative to inquire, there will be no special news passed on. Therefore, regarding the recent events in Wu County, it is better to directly ask Huang Gai
It's more convenient.
As the minister who was appointed by Sun Ce to assist Sun Quan, it would be fine if Zhang Zhao didn't know about this matter. Now that even Huang Gai has heard about it, Zhang Zhao will definitely not pretend to know anything.
Zhang Zibu...Huang Gai heard that he and his lord had a big quarrel...and they broke up...of course Huang Gai couldn't know the details of the quarrel, but this also shows that Zhang Zhao also
I don't want to see Sun Quan become a lord who only knows how to use inferior means.
Although assassinations have been around since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and have been common in history, no master has ascended to the throne solely by virtue of assassinations. Even if he ascends to the throne in a short time, he will soon be pulled down, because no matter what
Whoever it is, is actually quite disgusted with things like assassination.
By doing this, Sun Quan was ruining the reputation of the Sun family. No wonder Zhang Zhao got angry and had a big quarrel with Sun Quan.
The governor... Huang Gai asked, what do you want to do now? Lord... if you are like this, how will you convince the public in the future?
Zhou Yu smiled bitterly.
To be honest, Zhou Yu would actually doubt whether the decision he made was correct late at night...
If I had chosen Sun Lang at that time...
It didn't work either. Sun Lang was a narrow-minded and incompetent person. If he fell into his hands, the Sun family's foundation would be destroyed even faster. So there should have been no choice at that time...
Is that really the case?
Immediately there will be another voice, from small to louder, and then Zhou Yu is frightened and breaks out in a cold sweat. If neither is satisfactory, why not replace it?
Speaking of which, Zhou Yu is not completely hopeless. After all, Zhou Yu has a closer relationship with these veterans under Sun Ce. If...
Such thoughts that frightened Zhou Yu only appeared suddenly in the middle of the night. More often than not, Zhou Yu would calm down, at least when he looked at the jade flute given to him by Sun Ce, he would calm down.
But what to do now?
Like Zhang Zhao, go and have another quarrel with Sun Quan?
This is obviously not advisable. Although the contact between Zhou Yu and Sun Quan is not very deep, Zhou Yu still knows a little bit about Sun Quan's character. This guy has a stubborn personality, or in other words, everyone in the Sun family is a bit stubborn. From Sun Jian to
Sun Ce, and then Sun Quan, it’s just that everyone’s stubbornness is different.
Sun Quan's problem is that he thinks he is right, but then he is unwilling to admit that he is wrong. Even if he knows that he is wrong, he will not admit it...
This is almost the complete opposite of Sun Ce. Sun Ce also does something wrong sometimes, but if Sun Ce thinks he is wrong, he will quickly admit his mistake and even take the initiative to find someone to apologize. This is why Sun Ce can have such a high level in the military.
One of the reasons for his reputation is that after all, most of the men in the army are quite straightforward, which is very compatible with Sun Ce's temperament.
But Sun Quan...
Sun Quan often chooses not to say anything and chooses silence. Even if he knows that he is wrong, he will not admit it easily. For Sun Quan, it may be more difficult for him to admit his mistake than to kill him.
So what to do?
Zhou Yu was thinking and suddenly saw an item, his eyes lit up...
