Chapter 1993 The winner is not defeated, the loser is not defeated
What can attract a dog is either meat, bones, or simply a piece of feces. What attracts a cat is a fish or catnip.
The same is true for people.
Most people always do things in a somewhat organized manner, either because of this reason or because of concerns about that factor, and they rarely act without reason. Of course, people with brain problems and unclear thinking are generally excepted.
So what kind of things can attract what kind of people...
Fei Qian knew this very well.
Perhaps a more noble name is called "Extraordinary traits attract each other"?
Just like a group of corrupt people will inevitably gather around a corrupt person, those who engage in technology will definitely like to discuss technology with others, those who like literature will like literature, and those who serve the country with blood will also attract others who serve the country with blood. This law of "extraordinary qualities attract each other" was called, in ancient times, "different ways, do not conspire against each other".
So when Chen Qun came, Lu Su also came, and when Chen Qun left, Lu Su naturally left too...
"These two guys have been talking for a long time in Shiliting outside Chang'an..." Pang Tong snorted, "It's too late to meet... Humph..."
"What do you think they will say, Shi Yuan?" Fei Qian asked.
"The eight achievements are about Jingzhou!" Pang Tong was very sure.
Xun You put down the brush in his hand and blew on the ink, "Or...an alliance..."
Pang Tong glanced at Xun You, "It's possible, but... hum, the two of them... I'm afraid they can't get along..."
Xun You also glanced at Pang Tongyi. After thinking for a moment, he nodded and said, "It is indeed difficult to form an alliance..."
Fei Qian pinched the beard on his chin, and was speechless for a moment. He felt that he had evolved to the point of being the big boss of the Three Kingdoms now? He replaced Cao Cao's position, and then Wu Shu, uh, wrong, Wei Wu Alliance Come and beat me? What should your name be? "Qin"?
However, now Cao Cao and Sun Quan cannot form a true alliance. Fei Qian is quite clear about this reason. After all, it is not too difficult to think clearly about this issue.
only……
Fei Qian pinched his beard, thought for a while, and said: "However, I do think that there may be some alliances..."
Only when Cao and Sun cannot cooperate can Fei Qian exert his greatest influence on Jingzhou and maintain the integrity of Jingzhou as much as possible. Once the Cao-Sun alliance is established, Fei Qian's sending troops will plunge Jingzhou into deeper war. , Jingzhou will become a battlefield between three parties, and if Fei Qian does not send troops and only guards the front line of Wuguan and Wancheng, then Jingzhou will face the situation of being directly divided up.
"Huh?" Pang Tong didn't react.
Xun You on the other side also cast a surprised look.
Fei Qian stood up, then walked a few steps aside and reached the map.
"You said that Cao and Sun cannot form an alliance. After all, the two tigers are competing for food and it is difficult to balance. This is true..." Fei Qian pointed to the map, "The Sun family is located in the southeast. If they want to attack us, there are only three ways.
One way, after capturing Jiangling in the south of Jingzhou, use it as a base to attack along the Wuguan line... The other way is to go upstream and attack Hanzhong... Is there another way, which is to enter Sichuan and Shu..."
Fei Qian looked back at Pang Tong and Xun You.
Pang and Xun looked at each other and then nodded.
Of course, there is another way, which is to go south along the coastline, then climb over the mountains from Jiaozhi, attack from the south to the north, and enter central Sichuan... But this road can basically be ignored...
This last road is a bit like the road that Zhong Hui took in the past. Well, the road that Zhong Hui took in history could be strangled with only three to five hundred soldiers. Speaking of which, in fact, in history, Zhong Hui dared to
That's probably because there is some gossip. After all, in history, the three countries were said to be strictly guarded, but in fact, they were almost as leaky as a sieve. The emperors and ministers of their respective countries were all married to other countries, so there were usually no small notes about this.
Who would believe it if it was passed around?
"So, Jiangling is the foundation of Sun family's strategy. Without Jiangling, Sun family can only stay in Jiangdong..." Fei Qian didn't talk about Cao Cao, because everyone is too familiar with Cao Cao. How did he guard against Yuan Shao back then? Now,
Just how to defend against Cao Cao, at most adding a middle route around Hanzhong, nothing else changed.
Therefore, if Cao Cao wants to join forces with Sun Quan, he must give up Jiangling, and then he can join forces or attack Guanzhong in separate ways. Pang Tong and Xun You said that the reason why Cao Cao and Sun Quan could not sit together was because of Jiangling's
The benefits are so great that Cao Cao will definitely not give up Jiangling easily.
Because in this way, in addition to attacking Fei Qian, Sun Quan can also attack Cao Cao, and it is more convenient than attacking Fei Qian. After all, to defeat Fei Qian, you have to walk on a mountain road or sail against the current, but if you want to defeat Cao Cao
It only took two or three times to arrive...
The key is that if Cao Cao loses Jiangling, he will also lose half of his strategic depth. Just like if Cao Cao cannot control Heluo, Fei Qian will easily penetrate into the hinterland. For Cao Cao, the safety of his own flanks is exchanged.
An unreliable friendly force would do more harm than good to Cao Cao, but it would basically be good to Sun Quan. Therefore, this kind of alliance was not equitable at the beginning, and naturally it was difficult to establish.
However, just like "extraordinary qualities attract each other", when the goals overlap to a certain extent, some concessions and tolerance will be correspondingly increased.
"If we look at Jingzhou alone, it is indeed difficult for the Cao-Sun Alliance to be established, but if we say..." Fei Qian stretched out his hand and drew a whole circle on the map, "What if we look at the whole of China?"
Pang Tong took a breath and then touched his fat chin.
Xun You was also stunned.
Fei Qian smiled and then looked at the two of them.
Pang Tong suddenly sighed and said: "My lord, if this matter...if it really ends up like this, I am okay...I am worried about Zhuge Kongming, to some extent...my lord, when you are free, you might as well see us again..."
This time Fei Qian was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
……(⊙o⊙)(≥﹏≤)……
Fei Qian met Zhuge Liang again.
In what Mr. Luo wrote, it is obvious that he replaced himself as Zhuge Liang, so he had the ability to fight with the Confucian scholars and suppress Soochow with his own strength, and the straw boat borrowed arrows to show off his wits, and the great god jumped on the altar to borrow the east wind, Huarong said
Capturing and releasing Cao Cao in one thought, killing Zhou Yu with three qi, capturing Meng Huo seven times once and for all, even planning an empty city in Shanggu Valley, borrowing the seven-star lantern for another five hundred years, etc...
If Zhuge Liang had followed everything in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, I am afraid that the Romance of the Three Kingdoms would be inferior by three points.
Fei Qian looked at Zhuge Liang and smiled slightly. This boy, dressed in moon white, with the appearance of a cold and ascetic boy with a carrot head, must be the favorite of many rotten girls.
Some people once had doubts about whether Liu Bei really visited the thatched cottage, and suspected that Mr. Luo was the literary version of the domineering president who fell in love with me when he replaced himself. But Fei Qian thinks that the authenticity of the three visits is still relatively high, and it is even possible.
It's more times. After all, when values like three, six, and nine are mentioned in articles, most of the time they are not actual references.
Historically, Zhuge had been in Jingxiang for a long time, so some of his reputations were taken for granted. At that time, Liu Bei was in an embarrassing situation where he urgently needed the support of the nobles and frequently visited those who were in the opposition or semi-opposition in Jingzhou.
Talented people are things that are within reason.
Similarly, Zhuge Liang was already considered an older youth at the time. In the Han Dynasty, when the average age was basically around forty, Zhuge Liang did not have much time to continue playing the farming game. His desire to make contributions was even more urgent than that of ordinary people, so
Only when Liu Biao had just died and Liu Bei was still thinking about his reputation, Zhuge Liang suggested demolishing the archway...
Now, Liu Biao obviously cannot persist as long as in history, but faced with the same thing, the white radish version of Zhuge Liang seems to have chosen the same thing, suggesting that Fei Qian should replace Liu Biao and maintain the stability of Jingzhou
.
In history, Fei Qian is not entirely sure whether Liu Bei really cared about the archway, but one thing is certain, that is, Liu Bei did not have the strength to hold down the lively guys inside and outside Jingzhou, and now Fei Qian really wants to suppress them.
, it is still bearable to some extent, but the effort and reward will be very inconsistent.
Historically, Liu Bei captured Jingzhou, which was the beginning of his career. Now Fei Qian goes to capture Jingzhou, which is a burden to his career...
Fei Qian didn't care about the issue of the archway. He just considered it purely from a strategic perspective. Zhuge Liang's previous suggestion was to let him replace Liu Biao in Jingzhou. From a strategic perspective, it did more harm than good, but from an emotional perspective
In other words, Fei Qian can't be so cruel. After all, Fei Qian is somewhat related to Jingzhou. Some basic aspects cannot be thrown away just like that.
So it can only be like most competitive games, first keep the tie, then win, don't be reckless.
Pang Tong is also one of the players in the next game, so he can understand.
Zhuge Liang is the audience. Although he understands, he is not necessarily willing to accept it.
After all, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong are somewhat different now.
The Pang family and the Huang family have mainly transferred their industries to the Wancheng area. Even if Jingzhou is divided or falls into war, it is actually relatively safe for the Nanyang Wancheng area in northern Jingzhou and will not have any impact.
It was too big, so Pang Tong didn't have any thoughts about whether Jingzhou was complete or whether it belonged to Jingzhou, etc. It was easier to accept Fei Qian's thinking mode that considered the overall strategy.
So Pang Tong said he had no problem.
But Zhuge Liang has a problem. Cao Cao destroyed Zhuge Liang's original hometown, and now he wants to destroy Zhuge Liang's second hometown. It's no wonder that Zhuge has always been a traitor to Cao, and he wants to pinch Cao and beat him to death. Fei Qian doesn't want to fail to do Zhuge Liang's job well, and then
Zhuge Liang felt that Fei Qian was ruthless, cruel and unreasonable...
"During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there were three battles between Jin and Chu..." Fei Qian said slowly, then looked at Bai Luobotou, and then continued, "The winner of the battle does not win, and the loser of the battle does not win."
Defeat, does Kong Ming think so?"
Zhuge Liang pondered for a moment, nodded, and said: "Of course. What the general said is true."
"Kong Ming has something to say," Fei Qian said.
Zhuge Liang's voice was clear: "In the Spring and Autumn Period, when the king of Zhou was in decline, the princes fought against each other, and all rituals were abolished. At that time, the state of Chu was strong and had many soldiers and horses. If he wanted to conquer the Central Plains, he would inevitably go north. Duke Wen of Jin came to power and worked hard to govern.
If we want to revive the prestige of the Jin state, the battle between Jin and Chu must be fought."
Fei Qian nodded slightly.
"The first battle between Jin and Chu was at Chengpu." Zhuge Liang continued, "The Jin army defeated the large with its small number, the complex with simplicity, the advance with retreat, and the victory with specialization. Therefore, the overlord position was determined in one battle.
also……"
Zhuge Liang glanced at Fei Qian, and then said: "After the Battle of Chengpu, Duke Wen of Jin built a palace in Jiantu, honored King Xiang and sacrificed prisoners. Although he was granted the title of Hou Bo and gathered together to make an alliance, but... Therefore, he won the battle without doing anything."
Katsuya...』
"The Battle of Bi was the same. Although the commander of the Jin army knew that he could not fight, he fought..." Zhuge Liang was obviously very familiar with these things.
, hesitant and indecisive, undecided in peace and war, and unprepared in the face of battle, he was naturally at the mercy of others, leading to a great defeat. After this battle, Jin and Chu replaced each other, and Chu gained hegemony. King Zhuang soared into the sky, and his voice was heard far away... However, Chu State deviated from the Central Plains
, there are many differences in customs and etiquette. Even though Chu gained hegemony, it still could not last long, so there was the Battle of Yanling..."
"Chu offered the territory of Ruyin to Zheng in order to destroy its alliance. Jin and Qi, Lu and Wei jointly attacked it, and Chu sent out troops to attack and met Yanling." Zhuge Liang said, "Chu's army repeated its old tactics and attacked suddenly, but it failed
Encountering a swamp and being unable to advance, a good opportunity was missed. The Jin army attacked on the left and right separately, from morning to night. Although it was said to be victorious, the national power had declined, and its intentions were different... What the general meant was that the current situation was like that of Jin and Chu. There were officials vying for power within.
, Wu Qi and other countries are peeking outside..."
Jin State and Chu State were old enemies during the Spring and Autumn Period and Warring States Period. They fought each other eleven times in total. Jin State won most of them. Chu State won not many times. Only the Battle of Bi and the Battle of Beilin were won.
They were just battles, but if we were talking about the most important and influential battles, they were the three mentioned by Fei Qian and Zhuge Liang.
Especially the Battle of Yanling.
Although the war ended with Jin's narrow victory, a series of negative consequences followed, which became a sign of the decline of these two hegemons. The outcome of the war was actually long overdue.
There are signs, and there are many obvious reasons for the loss of strength between the two countries.
Fei Qian nodded and said: "Kong Ming is really smart and knows someone's intention. Only by looking at history can we know the importance. In the past, the disputes between Jin and Chu included conflicts between countries and scholars..."
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, a fact that cannot be ignored is that there were many conflicts between countries, especially within the Jin and Chu countries, between the old aristocrats and the new scholar-bureaucrats, and each had their own calculations. This intricate relationship,
It was also an important internal factor that caused Jin and Chu to compete with each other for hegemony.
"If you win externally but lose internally, you will eventually be defeated. If you win internally but lose externally, you will also be defeated. How difficult is it to win both internally and externally..." Fei Qian said, "Therefore, the winner of the battle is not the winner.
He who is defeated in battle is not defeated..."
Zhuge Liang was silent and didn't say anything immediately, but still looked at Fei Qian.
"During the Battle of Yanling..." Fei Qian took a breath, and then thought of some similar events in later generations, and couldn't help but sigh, "There has been internal discord in the Chu State for a long time. The generals are attacking each other, and the kings and soldiers are difficult to balance.
Disputes continued, and the King of Chu was at a loss what to do, so he had to seek external benefits..."
Transferring domestic conflicts to other countries is not a practice that only later generations of countries know how to do. At least during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the King of Chu knew how to play this trick. But in doing so, some people succeeded, and some people failed...
Zhuge Liang is not stupid. He has long noticed that Fei Qian is unwilling to send troops to Jingzhou, but he wanted to fight for it before. On the surface, because he has stayed in one place for a long time, he will have some feelings, but in fact, Zhuge Liang knows that he is actually in his heart.
, there was a deeper reason that made him unwilling to see Jingzhou, which had finally enjoyed peace for several years, once again fall into the flames of war like his hometown.
Zhuge Liang closed his eyes sadly.
Fei Qian looked at Zhuge Liang and felt a little emotional. If a person's achievements are like a bucket of water, then the person's own talent is one of the boards, which may determine the lower limit, but a person's vision is also another board.
, determines the upper limit of this person...
There is no need to question Zhuge Liang's talent.
Some people say that Mr. Luo praised Zhuge Liang and that his talent was overestimated. In fact, from a historical perspective, it may actually be underestimated. Zhuge Liang's image may have been somewhat corrupted by Mr. Luo, and he was reduced to a talkative and quick-talking master.
image, rather than a steady politician.
Give a chestnut.
In order to protect Dujiangyan, and also to ensure that water conservancy resources would not be misappropriated by this or that person, Zhuge Liang issued an order during the Three Kingdoms period, stating that Dujiangyan is the foundation of the country and "an asset of the country, and it must be protected by 1,200 people."
", and then a "Weir Officer" was specially set up to command this armed force to protect Dujiangyan, which was directly under the jurisdiction of the Shu Han court and was not interfered by local governments such as counties and counties.
Thanks to this, Dujiangyan can "only encourage agriculture, do not seize the time, only reduce taxes and collect endless people's wealth", and will not be surrounded by this or that person.
The situation in which the local government keeps its eyes open but doesn't know this or that and can't control anything can ensure the orderly, healthy and stable agriculture of the entire Chengdu Plain.
Unlike Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty who sent troops to enclose the land and declare it state-owned, Zhuge Liang established an armed defense force to protect state-owned public facilities from private encroachment and ensure the normal operation of the country. This concept transcends time and space, and even makes some people in later generations
Everyone should be ashamed.
That's why Fei Qian was willing to slowly let Zhuge Liang see and think about it. At least Fei Qian knew that if Zhuge Liang could really understand and understand, there would be a strong force in the future to make things change.
Dahan Wheel will not return to its original trajectory...
