July of the fourth year of Taixing in the Han Dynasty.
An edict was issued silently from Xu County, dismissing Xiahou Dun from the position of General Jianwu, and saying that Liu Qi, the queen of King Lu Gong, was smart and capable of taking on great responsibilities, and he would be crowned Marquis of Wu.
It is said to be silent, because this edict was only given to Liu Qi. Another aspect is that even if it is announced in the court, it will not be announced to the world, let alone any Huangmen eunuch will be sent all the way.
Jingzhou, escort Liu Qi to the throne, or capture Xiahou Dun and imprison him.
To put it bluntly, it is just a piece of paper. If someone is willing to acknowledge this piece of paper, the edict will be valid. If no one acknowledges it, the edict will be deemed as wiping the butt.
Regarding this fact, Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty was helpless, but there was no other way. In fact, since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the emperor of the Han Dynasty has been inferior to the previous generation. This is also due to the emperor himself, and there are also noble families.
The reasons for the powerful actions have been accumulated to the present. Even if Liu Xie has three heads and six arms, he may not be able to change them.
Such an arrangement seemed a bit sudden, but also seemed to come naturally. A single edict turned the life and death in Jingzhou into a farce. Perhaps only those who are in it can deeply feel the absurdity of it.
and ridiculous.
Liu Xie is not without his kind desire to bring peace to the world, but in this world, it is obvious that if there is only kindness without authority, then kindness will either become a burden or attract a pack of hungry wolves.
Just like the ramen man, his kindness is smelled by many blood-sucking insects, and they swarm to him, attaching to him until they are sucked dry and eaten to death, and then they fall down and go looking for the next target.
Now in Yuzhou, other officials and noble families in Xu County basically don't care much about whether the so-called "Jianwu General" or "Cheng Wuhou" can be implemented. They are only concerned about the current situation.
Interested, when will Taishi Ci, who is blocking the door, leave?
That's right, this edict was also for Taishi Ci to read.
Didn't Taishi Ci escort Liu Qi to seek justice? Now, isn't this "justice" meant to be given? Then Taishi Ci will go back to where he came from, and then everyone can continue to drink and eat meat with a smile...
As for whether the people in Jingzhou are dead or alive, what kind of profound impact will this war in Jingzhou have on the entire Han Dynasty? Basically not many gentry children in Xu County will think about it. They are more concerned about Boss Cao
Whether the previous promises can be fulfilled, whether everyone's promotion and wealth have been implemented, and whether the change of positions will bring about any ebb and flow of power to the family, which hot stoves must be burned quickly, and which cold stoves must be burned quickly.
Can't let it go either.
All these various things are enough to drive people crazy. If there is also Taishi Ci who is constantly interfering on the side, wouldn't it make people crazy?
Therefore, in the hearts of these gentry children, the first thing they do when they get up every day is to pray to God. That Taishi Ci should get out early... and go back early!
Of course, there are also some people who will look at Fei Qian on the left and Cao Cao on the right, holding on to their own small chips and feeling sorry for themselves. They feel that now that the factions are waxing and waning, the water is too deep and they can’t see clearly, and they can’t see clearly for a while.
It’s easy to place a bet. However, I don’t dare to place a bet. Of course, superficial things can be done. It’s always right to praise someone’s virtues. It’s hard to say anything about Xiahou Dun, but you can praise the emperor. At least the elders and young ones are in order, right?
?
As for the people in Xu County, their focus is not on these things. After all, for these people, firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea are the most important things. While they are worried about when the rising prices will come down,
While looking forward to harvesting more in the approaching autumn harvest, I really don’t have the energy to think about other things.
In the entire Han Dynasty, I am afraid that Liu Xie most hopes that this edict will be effective and that the Han Dynasty will have rules and be able to abide by them. But now, he has no way to make rules or make others abide by them.
rule……
People are always like this, they only cherish when they are lacking.
Just like problems that can be solved with money are not problems, the problem is that there is no money.
Liu Xie was not completely incompetent. He was just a man who ate and waited for death. He became the emperor of Han Dynasty due to some strange combination of circumstances. He was born in a noble family. Although he experienced some pain, he was still far from being able to understand people's livelihood. This
This is also a common problem among most emperors, and Liu Xie cannot be blamed solely for this.
Some of the ministers in Xu County have expectations for Liu Xie, but most of them are indifferent to Liu Xie. After all, no matter the changes in the DPRK, Liu Xie can't come up with any ideas most of the time, let alone
Speaking of leading the development of events, as for the imperial power, it was even more depleted and there was almost no power that could be used. This was due to the long-standing shortcomings of the Han Dynasty for many years, and it cannot be regarded as the responsibility of Liu Xie alone.
If Liu Xie is willing to sink, maybe he will be happy, and others will be happy, but the problem is that Liu Xie can't let go, nor can he let go of the things his father whispered in his ears before he was alive, nor can he let go of his painful crying in the Ancestral Temple, so he
I want to do something, but the more I do something, the more confused I become, and I even don’t understand it at all.
Just like this edict, Liu Xie originally thought that after issuing such an edict, it would inevitably arouse a lot of discussion. There may be those who are in favor, but most of them are against it, so Liu Xie even prepared
I also had a small notebook prepared to scold each of them one by one, and then write them down.
A son inherits his father's inheritance, and the elders and younger ones are in an orderly manner. This is the moral code of the Han Dynasty. This is the foundation of the family business. Who can argue?
The result was like punching the air with a vicious punch, almost dislocating his arm. No one had any opinions on this edict, or even turned a blind eye.
Liu Xie naturally found it very puzzling, and sent Xiao Huang to chase and block him. Finally, Liu Ye was blocked and he sneaked into the palace hall...
Liu Xie looked at the sad-looking Liu Ye and said with a gentle smile: "Thank you for your hard work, are you feeling better now?" Before, Liu Ye had all used illness to escape, but he finally caught him and started to speak out in a bad mood.
Liu Ye smiled bitterly and said in greeting: "Thank you for your concern. I know my body well. I'm afraid it will be difficult... but your majesty has been so kind to me. I have to repay your majesty with this broken body even if I am alive for one day."
One day of grace... Your Majesty calls me down this time. If you have anything to do, just ask me. As long as I can struggle, I will always share your worries for Your Majesty..."
Originally, with Liu Ye's status, he would not be so groveling in front of Liu Xie, but no matter from which aspect, getting too close to Liu Xie is not a good thing. After all, with Liu Ye's
Smart, I can guess that if I want to play ranked with Liu Xie, a teammate, I am afraid it will not be so reliable...
But being blocked, I couldn't just throw away, so I had no choice but to show off and see if Liu Xie had grown up, so that I could make some calculations.
Liu Xie could more or less hear the implication of Liu Ye's words, and his smile suddenly froze. He wanted to get angry, but there seemed to be nothing wrong with what Liu Ye said, and if he really got angry, he might have played into Liu Ye's hands, allowing him to
So he escaped again.
Liu Xie smiled and pretended that he didn't understand, "The pillar of Aiqing's country is indeed well-deserved... I'm sorry to have to come here today because I have something unclear. I'd like to ask you to give me some advice... In the past, the Jin people returned to Chu Gongzi Gu Chen and
The body of Elder Yin Xiang was brought to Chu to seek knowledge of Feng. Xun then took charge of the Central Army, so the Chu people agreed to it... Is this a public or private move?
Liu Ye was stunned and raised his head.
The light shines in from outside the main hall, ripples on the gauze inside the main hall, and projects around the throne. It also softly highlights Liu Xie's already bearded face...
In 597 BC, the battle between Jin and Chu led to Jin's defeat and Chu Sheng's defeat. Zhifeng was the nephew of Xun Lin's father, the commander-in-chief of the Jin army. His father, Xun Shou, was a senior official in the lower army at the time, and he served under Xun Shou.
As a result, the generals in the Jin army were at odds, and Zhifeng was accidentally captured. At that time, Xun, the leader of the army, wanted to save his son. After retreating, he led his men into the Chu army and shot and killed the Chu noble Xiang Lao, also called Lian Yin Xiang Lao. Lian Yin was
His official name is said to be Shooting Officer, and he also captured Chu Gongzi Gu Chen, but failed to rescue his son.
One is a young master from a powerful family in the Jin State, and the other is a royal prince from the Chu State and the deceased Lian Yinxiang. Judging from the levels of the people captured by the two, they do not seem to be "equal", or because of this,
There has been no prisoner exchange between the two sides in the past ten years.
Duke Zhuang of Chu, who defeated the Jin State and wiped away the shame of the defeat in the Battle of Chengpu between Jin and Chu, was also at ease during this period. He first obeyed Zheng, then obeyed the Song Dynasty, and finally united with Qi to control Jin. Instead, Jin State was isolated by the Central Plains countries.
.Therefore, although Prince Gu Chen still stayed in Jin State and suffered punishment, his mood should be much more comfortable than Zhi Feng in Chu State.
Under such circumstances, a request was made that was not entirely "equivalent" and both parties agreed to exchange prisoners.
Then a very interesting question and answer in history happened...
And now, the question raised by Liu Xie is also very interesting, so "interesting" that Liu Ye needs to re-examine Liu Xie.
After all, I have grown up a bit...
But it is a pity that this is not enough. If you had truly grown up, you would not ask such a question.
One is Liu Cong in the hands of Cao Cao, one is Liu Qi in the hands of Fei Qian, one is Zhi Feng in the hands of the King of Chu, and one is the young master in the Jin Kingdom. Then, they are sitting on the throne, but they are also trapped on the throne.
The emperor above, Liu Xie, lowered his head and asked, "Is it public? Is it private?"
"It's both private and public." Liu Ye said, "Private, I know that Feng's father is an assistant in the army and the second minister of the country. How about public... When Jin and Chu fought, there would eventually be a battle. It was far away from Bi.
The battle also lasted ten years, and it was just a trial..." Although the Chu State won the previous Battle of Bi, ten years later, Duke Zhuang of Chu had died for three years. The young King of the Communist Party of Chu succeeded to the throne.
Three years later, the Chu State fell into disputes among its ministers, and the balance of power between the Jin State and the Chu State changed again.
Liu Xie nodded slowly, wondering if he could hear the hidden meaning in Liu Ye's words. After a moment, he asked again, "Why are the sons of the second minister wise and the prince's son unknown after they were both detained for ten years?"
Yeah, luck?』
Zhifeng, also known as Zhifeng, later became the most famous minister, politician, and military commander in the revival of the Jin Kingdom's hegemony. The corresponding son of the Chu Kingdom had no future after being exchanged for prisoners and returned, and was never seen again.
record.
Although it is not clear how old Zhi Feng was when he went to the battlefield, and how old he was when he was captured, but from the general situation, it can be deduced that he should be in his youth, around 20, and ten years of imprisonment is exactly
These are the golden years of youth...
Not only was Zhi Feng not imprisoned and turned into a useless person, but even the questions and answers he gave to the King of Chu when he was leaving were so sound and well-founded that the King of Chu couldn't help but sigh, "We can't compete with Jin."
"The strong wind captivates the eye, but the true nature can only be seen when the trees are quiet." Liu Ye said slowly, "Just like Jin and Chu, there are constant disputes, and each has its own victory or defeat. How can we describe the fate of its people? What's more, although the Jin State has "and
"The Seventeenth Kingdom, the Thirty-Eighth Kingdom." There were also six officials, Fan, Zhongxing, Zhi, Han, Zhao, and Wei, who competed with each other, and later won the title of Han, Zhao, and Wei..."
When Liu Ye said, "We must seal Han, Zhao, and Wei," he specifically raised his head and glanced at Liu Xie. Who sealed Han, Zhao, and Wei? Naturally, it was King Zhou, King Weilie of Zhou Ji Wu. And this Ji Wu can be said to be a symbol
…
Liu Xie's eyes moved slightly.
All the questions seemed to have answers, but there seemed to be no answers. There were only specks of brilliance in the hall and the occasional sound of wind coming in from outside the hall...
……(o▽)o……
Jingzhou.
When Xu Huang appeared in the sight of Xiangyang City with a group of troops, the top of Xiangyang City was almost crowded with soldiers and generals, all standing on tiptoes and stretching their necks to look northwest.
Xiahou Dun was also among these people.
Since the capture of Fan City, Xiahou Dun has fully gathered the troops in Xiangyang City and reorganized the soldiers, even those who originally belonged to Cai Mao, although Xiahou Dun felt that Cai Mao would not cause a second wave in Xiangyang City.
, but it is always safer to be cautious.
Seeing the Hussars arriving, the soldiers at the top of the city couldn't help but become a little busy, and there were some chattering voices. Xiahou Dun took a glance, and the guards around him understood, so he walked down and started to maintain order.
The elite of Cao's army were Qingzhou soldiers.
Most of the Qingzhou soldiers followed Cao Cao south to Jiangling. Most of the soldiers staying in Xiangyang are soldiers from Yuzhou and Jizhou. Although these guys have no problem in dispatching, they are not as good as veterans like Qingzhou.
In comparison, I still lack a bit of composure and a bit of courage.
In order to prepare for the upcoming war, Xiahou Dun had already prepared the dry food for continuous combat, and also asked the middle and lower-level military academy sergeants to promise rewards after the victory in the future. Yesterday
They even arranged good wine and meat for the boys to feast on.
According to the original plan, Xiahou Dun was on the south bank of the Han River and the north bank of Cao Hong, and there were some remaining Jingzhou naval forces and ships. He could dispatch soldiers and reinforce when necessary, and even look for opportunities to sneak attack on the Hussar's camp, etc.
, there is even a chance to defeat the enemy and capture the general...
But now, Cao Hong has lost Fancheng.
When Xiahou Dun learned the news, he dismissed all the guards, and then sat alone for nearly an hour. The plan was perfect before, with the upper, middle and lower lanes, and the junglers were also clearly assigned, but when he encountered
When you have a pig teammate, no matter how good the plan is, it doesn't work. As soon as you go out, you find that you are alone and there are five people on the opposite side plus your own pig teammate, one VS nine.
Fancheng and Xiangyang are the shackles that imprisoned the northern part of Jingzhou and the Han River channel. But now that the shackles have been opened, it is meaningless for Xiahou Dun to recapture Fancheng now. He can only guard Xiangyang.
When Xiahou Dun once again saw the hussars coming and going, even if he was very reluctant to admit it in his heart, he could not deny that the elite cavalry under Fei Qian's command was no longer like the previous one that could only support the infantry formations.
It can only be used for the simple purpose of sending orders to scouts, which is a weak force, but it is a powerful force that can change the outcome and decide life and death!
Although Xiahou Dun tried his best to appear calm and composed, the feeling of having worked so hard to plan, only to see his success come to naught was like a wooden stick running through his chest and abdomen, piercing his five internal organs.
All the six internal organs ached.
Xiahou Dun's eyes turned slightly and rested on Cai Mao not far away. He stayed there for a long time before slowly moving back.
Although Cai Mao did not look back or make any unnecessary movements, pretending to be concentrating on looking into the distance, he was actually aware of Xiahou Dun's gaze, and even felt that his scalp was numb from the glare of Xiahou Dun's gaze.
Isn’t General Hussar unwilling to come to Jingzhou?
If I had known...
Various thoughts were swirling in Cai Hao's mind, but he didn't dare to come up with any of them, for fear that the leaked breath would be noticed by Cao's guards beside him.
But it’s not that there is no chance at all. Anyway, I still have some relationship with the Cavalry General Fei Potential. If that day really comes...
Cai Mao swallowed secretly.
Let’s look at the future!
At this moment, Xu Huang outside the city has no immediate plans to attack the city with his troops. After all, there is still a Han River across the river, and he does not bring siege equipment. So in fact, this time Xu Huang brings his people here not for Xiangyang City.
, but for the Jingzhou population north of Xiangyang City.
For General Fei Qian, it is not important whether he can get Jingzhou, but if he can attract a group of Jingzhou people in the current chaotic situation, whether it is to supplement Longyou in Guanzhong, or to fill up the northern part of Yinshan Mountain,
Xinjiang is excellent.
Xu Huang looked at the head of Xiangyang City with swaying figures in the distance, and smiled slightly. In this battle, the Cavalry General was originally standing in a different position from you!
Only by saving people can we save land!
You are still thinking about this tiny place, one city and one county, but the Cavalry General has already set his sights on the world and all the people. The difference between the upper and lower is more than the difference between clouds and mud!
