Chapter 2318: There is seed and there is no seed, there is wrong and right
While Fei Qian was clearing out the barbarians around the Han Dynasty, Cao Cao also won a victory over the Ding Ling people, ending a phased battle and achieving fruitful results.
For most counties that are not border areas, it has entered a relatively busy and joyful time. After all, for the farming people, Zhuanghe this year seems to be going smoothly, even if a small area is affected by the
Even if there is a disaster, it is still within the acceptable range.
For a time, the joy of harvest diluted many mutual sorrows and worries, and the troubles of war and plague seemed to be far away from the life scope of the gentry children.
For man-made disasters, gentry children can sometimes be exempted based on their status. Even if they encounter thieves and bandits, sometimes they can just use someone's name to save their lives. However, in the face of famine and plague, gentry children
A person's identity is of no use at all, and famine and plague will never favor a person because of his or her identity.
Over the years, many large noble families have withered away and only a few people are left...
Even the entire clan is wiped out.
The children of the aristocratic family are all like this, so how can the ordinary people below be better off?
Therefore, people in Jizhou, Yuzhou and other areas, whether they are nobles or common people, feel that the current peace, which may even be just a short respite, is hard-won. Of course, for ordinary people, the focus is more on things.
, for example, it would be enough to collect three or five more bushels from the fields, but for the gentry children, what they focus on is still power, or they may cover it up and say it is personal or family business.
In troubled times, the more chaotic it is, the more opportunities there are for extraordinary advancement.
On the contrary, well...
In history, it would be fine if these gentry children met monarchs who were willing to discover talents, such as Cao Cao and Liu Bei. Even if they could not hold an official position in the court, they could still occupy a county position. However, if they met that kind of
If you are not invited even once, you will be in bad luck if you fall out. For example, Tao Qian conquered Zhang Zhao...
Policies in various places have various uncertain factors depending on the people in charge, which also leads to various interpretations and extensions when these nobles choose and judge the princes in various places.
In the current chaos, the examination system, talent ladder system, new land administration system, new tax rate business model and other new systems and concepts brought by Fei Qian, the cavalry general who is entrenched in Chang'an, are just like
It was like a surging wave, hitting the hearts of the Shandong nobles one after another.
Discussion and discussion are inevitable.
"I believe that the Hussars General's many new policies, except for the trade policy, are all urgent measures in the midst of chaos. They will not last long, and in the long run... they will lead to chaos!"
In Yingchuan, on the side of Yingshui, there is a winery that only accepts the descendants of the gentry. Due to the calm situation around it, it is gradually becoming lively. Disciples wearing long robes and wide sleeves are shaking gold-painted fans and drinking incense.
Nang, sit around in a circle, talk loudly, and point out the country.
"The words of a single step... haha, maybe it is rash... Not to mention that the Hussar General is in charge of the West Platform, and the order is as above. It is obvious that the Hussar General has been concentrating on the outline for a long time and has been prepared for a long time... It seems that he is determined to implement the New Deal, even more
What's more, the three assistants in Guanzhong have been under the new policy for a long time. Instead of seeing chaos, they have shown their prosperity. Therefore, I don't know where to start talking about the inevitable chaos."
"Brother, I guess you support the new strategy of the Hussars?"
"We can't even talk about supporting it. It's just that rocks from other mountains can attack jade. If there is something to be gained, why should we be afraid and keep it secret?"
"In this case...it is said that the Hussar policy will not last long, not because it is harmful, but to change it. Now that the world is in chaos, and the local government orders are inconsistent, it is a temporary emergency. If the world is peaceful,
This kind of method is destined to be difficult to maintain and will definitely be changed!"
"Oh, I'd like to hear the details... I'm Runan Yingyu Ying Zijin, I haven't asked my brother Gao's name yet..."
"Jiujiang Jiang Gan, Jiang Ziyi..."
"I have met Brother Jiang..."
Several people greeted each other again, and then confirmed their respective family status, just like the young men in the courtyard in later generations informed each other of their families and found out what their father and grandfather's positions were when they bumped into each other.
"My father is a captain! Where is your father?"
"My father is a major! Come on, just follow me! I'll protect you!"
"Oh! It's done!"
Generally similar to this.
Jiang Gan's talk was quite good. After chatting happily, he returned to the topic, "Looking at the new strategies of the Qiusi, there are endless ones, but there are only three... One is to invade large households and liquidate acres of land."
, increase production in the fields. The second is to discard the political opinions, take light examinations and heavy examinations, and select people based on their talents. The third is to promote education, flourish industry and commerce, and have strong weapons and armor... I wonder if you think so?"
Everyone thought about it for a while, and it seemed that they were pretty much the same, so they nodded in agreement one after another.
"There is no need to elaborate on the disadvantages of invading large households, clearing acres of land, and cultivating farmland to increase production..." Jiang Gan said lazily, "Actually, the horse riding policy is based on the wisdom of the predecessors. Large households in various places have invaded people's land too much.
As a result, the people had no place to live and became bandits, and bandits gathered... Just like in the time of Wang Mang, the people had no place to stand, and the red-browed green forests were all over. Later, Guangwu came to rule the world and implement the policy of consolidating the fields. How similar is it to today's time?
?The Hussars General Tian Ce is nothing more than this. It is the old method of Guangwu with a slight innovation, which is not surprising..."
Jiang Qian was originally a person who was good at talking about things. He spoke a lot of things in a eloquent manner, and everyone couldn't help but nod their heads, thinking that what Jiang Qian said seemed to be the same thing.
"As for the method of riding examinations, the strategy of selecting scholars based on their talents has been in place for a long time..." Jiang Gan shook his head and said, "When Taixue was first established, there were examinations, and there were rankings in the Mingtang. This strategy
It started from the ancestors and flourished under the Ming Emperor... In the past, in Luoyang, the scholars of Taixue also studied under the doctorate, set up science and shooting strategies, and became officials after passing the exams. They were even recommended as officials from various places. When they arrived in Kyoto, they also
Let’s try it... This is the old method, not the original creation of Hussar.”
What Jiang Gan meant was that this new strategy of the hussar was not a pioneering work of the hussar anyway, so what’s so novel about it?
Everyone was immediately stunned, and then they couldn't help but frown in thought. In fact, as Jiang Gan said, there were already some examination systems in the Han Dynasty, but most of the time these examination systems were for walk-in exams.
It's just a formality, but now Jiang Gan says that these are the predecessors of the system of hussar examinations to select talents, which seems to make some sense.
"As for industrial and commercial weapons..." Jiang Gan smiled, "It can only be said that Hussar is better at craftsmanship and has the skills of Guan Zhong..."
People around him smiled knowingly.
Suddenly, the clubhouse, uh, winery was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
But after laughing, Runan Yingyu still remembered Jiang Qian's words just now, and asked: "In this case, Brother Jiang said that the husband's method is mostly an old practice. There are traces to follow, so why can't it last forever?"
"Haha, even a three-year-old child knows this kind of flaw..." Jiang Qian laughed and ignored Runan Yingyu's slightly discolored face. Anyway, the Runan Ying family is too young and they have never heard of it.
, it’s like a colonel in the courtyard laughing at a lieutenant, so what?
"In the past, the strategy of spreading military power to conquer the fields, but the law did not go out of Heluo, and the law did not reach the countryside. Within three years, all the counties and counties in the world rebelled against it. The ministers of the court, the three public officials and the nine ministers were extremely evil. The families in the counties and counties, the townships,
A big family in the wild is so unfaithful..." Jiang Gan shook his head and said, "The strategy of consolidating the fields is unpopular, how can it last long? It should be noted that if it were not for the three assistants of Chang'an, east of Heluo River, and north of Shangjun, or due to the invasion of barbarians,
Or he was harmed by Dong's thieves, and even acres of farmland were cultivated. During ten stops, seven or eight people lost their contracts. How could Qiusi carry out this strategy?"
"In Hebei and Yu, every place has its own people. If the court orders them to save them at this time, is it okay?"
After Jiang Gan finished speaking, everyone fell silent.
Seeing this, Jiang Qian became even more talkative and shook his head triumphantly, "What's more, riding in Pingyang Academy, the method of recruiting talents, although it can be used for a short time, cannot last long... It should be noted that the emperor of this dynasty
Learning is not ruined by the court, but by the eunuchs! In the past, eunuchs also caused harm to the learning in Hongdu! Nowadays, the Hussar Academy is flourishing, which is no problem. However, as time goes by, it is inevitable that there will be many problems.
Change, although the hussars do not have the worries of eunuchs, they still have the hindrance of relatives. If they are not used properly, even if Hongdu prospers for a while, will it be destroyed in one day?"
Everyone was suddenly enlightened and started talking one after another. It seemed that what Jiang Gan said made some sense.
"If Ziyi's words and Qiaoqi's strategy are all wrong, then there is no correct strategy?"
"That's not the case..." Jiang Gan laughed, "I'm just saying that this hussar's strategy is just an old method. It has no new ideas, so it's not something to be afraid of! What's more, the world is so big, and the mountain way can be used in it.
Is it a river? Can a strategy from one corner be passed through the whole world? Can it be achieved between Guanzhong and Hebei and Henan? Therefore, if we say that the strategy of Hussar is wrong, it is not wrong. If it is right, but
There are also mistakes..."
Jiang Gan shook his head and said what was wrong and what was right, like a tongue twister, causing everyone around him to laugh again.
"I heard that Jiang Ziyi in Jiujiang was the only one in Jianghuai in terms of talent. Now I hear it, he is really insightful!" someone praised.
"I don't dare, I'm flattering you..." Jiang Qian pretended to be humble and bowed his hands, "I am honored to be able to discuss it with all the great sages..."
Under the mutual flattery, everyone laughed together, and the colorful sedan chairs were carried to each other, and the atmosphere became more and more lively.
The drinking order started and the dancer started dancing.
There is a lot of noise, and it seems that everything can be prosperous forever...
In some respects, as Jiang Gan said, the strategy of the Cavalry General is similar to some old systems in some aspects. This is also when the Cavalry General Fei Qian implemented the new strategy.
, the reason why it can be accepted by the gentry system to some extent. However, Jiang Gan’s words were completely restricted by his knowledge and failed to penetrate the essence. In other words, he ignored that policy is never one-sided or metaphysical.
, but are interconnected and influence each other.
Of course, it’s natural that Jiang Qian couldn’t understand or didn’t pay attention. Historically, starting from the end of the Han Dynasty, the political system of the Han Dynasty had come to an end. Then, after the chaos of the Five Hus and the Chinese, a new one was found in the Sui and Tang Dynasties.
system to replace...
Social and economic development and morphological changes inevitably require a new system and new changes. However, for Jiang Gan and others, they still seek methods and methods in the old books, and then think they understand and criticize the new strategies.
He is judgemental and thinks he is good.
It's not that these people don't know that times have changed, but they choose to only listen to a little, watch a little, and then be satisfied with themselves. Add a little more, repaint the places that were originally rotten and exposed, and they can still do it.
Eat, drink, be merry...
……(?▽?)/……
"Princes and generals should be content with each other." This sentence has been recognized by many people since the day it was born. It has even been regarded as a motto. From time to time, it is mentioned and recited, but the problem is that it is useless to just think about it.
, need to actually do it.
Beigong obviously believed in this sentence at one time, but now he finally knows that he is indeed "unkind".
And he didn't dare to admit it.
It feels happy when I shout, and it hurts when I do it. It’s like being very happy when watching pirated copies, and then very angry after receiving fake money. This world is not originally kind-hearted, and all free gifts.
In fact, the prices are all marked secretly.
The winner takes all, whether they are Han or Hu, the winner is qualified to write history, and the loser, well...
Beigong didn't want to admit defeat, nor was he willing to be a loser, so he wanted to try again. At this time, Jia Xu's early strategy came into effect. There were reinforcements from the Western Regions such as Gao Wutong in the northwest, and
To the east was the encirclement of Zhang Liao and Tai Shici. Beigong, who was cut off from his retreat, had no choice but to flee into the Qilian Mountains, hoping to borrow chickens to lay eggs.
The sporadic rain in the mountains stopped, and Beigong looked at the mountains with an expression that was indescribable. After entering Chatiaozigou, he could no longer see Zhangye, nor could he see the land of Xihe Longyou that he was originally familiar with. Everything was completely forgotten.
Covered by hard mountains.
Fortunately, there are some Qiang people and some tribal people around Beigong. Although their faces are inevitably a little ugly, they still follow Beigong...
To be honest, in the battle under Zhangye City, only less than 10% of the Qiang people died directly. The rest died or were captured on the way to escape, and at least 50% of the Qiang people escaped.
Well, it was these Qiang people who fled in disorder that gave Beigong some time to move around.
Catching chickens and dogs requires a lot of effort in such a small fenced shack, let alone catching these fleeing Qiang tribes?
Although both ends are blocked, it will still take a certain amount of time to completely calm down and clean up, and this time has become Beigong's only hope at the moment.
If we can bring reinforcements and break the siege of Han soldiers, then Beigong will still be Beigong!
If not...
Then it's just a pile of mud!
Even the bones will rot in the mud!
The time left for Beigong is getting tighter and tighter. If you don't hurry up, maybe even if Beigong recruits reinforcements, the Qiang people in Longyou, Longxi, will surrender one after another. Are they still resisting?
"I only regret that I couldn't capture Zhangye earlier!"
Beigong regretted it quite a bit. After all, he had been at a standstill under Zhangye for two or three days. If he had attacked earlier, or even attacked the city overnight, he might have taken Zhangye, and the battle situation might have changed!
It's just a pity that everything is what if...
After Beigong took a deep breath, he stepped forward in the muddy water, "God be with you! The descendants of Yoshiko will not be defeated so easily! A momentary failure is nothing, even the best hunter will get injured sometimes.
!When we find reinforcements, we can conquer Longyou again and sacrifice those damn Han heads to the gods! To Jizi! To our dead brother Erlang!"
After saying that, Beigong stood up and mounted his horse.
"We will definitely come back!"
Beigong read the Big Bad Wolf's lines loudly and raised his head, just as he thought back then, he was not wrong, it was the Han people and the whole world who were wrong!
Then Beigong led people on a path destined to fail.
Not long after Beigong was heading towards the Qilian Mountain pasture, they encountered the so-called Qiang "reinforcements" running out from the Qilian Mountain pasture...
Upon meeting each other, almost both sides felt a chill in their hearts, and there was no joy at all in joining forces.
Even if his face is swollen to appear fat, the clothes and unavoidable scars on his body can still make it easy to tell whether the fat man is really fat or has been swollen.
The world that Bei Gong insisted on maintaining began to collapse.
Together with the image of Beigong...
The foundation built bit by bit by his father, his grandfather, and the previous generation Beigong began to collapse.
Beigong's gilded name began to fade, revealing its muddy undertones.
Beigong also noticed this. He almost instinctively summoned the remaining Qiang-headed people, tried his best to draw a big pie and win over people's hearts, trying to pick up the scattered things, repaint them, and unite them again...
At the beginning, it seemed to have some effect.
After all, under the fear of Han soldiers and horses, these Qiang leaders still hoped that Beigong could be the one to bear the thunder, so they still maintained their superficial respect and obedience to Beigong. However, when these Qiang leaders discovered
Beigong could not come up with any effective strategy other than drawing big cakes, and the Han people on both sides of the Qilian Mountains did not seem to want to enter the mountains to encircle and suppress them. It seemed that they just wanted to block the entrance to the Qilian Mountains and that would be it.
.
The Qiang people naturally panicked.
I have a bad appetite. This painted pie looks good, but I can’t digest it...
There is nothing wrong with having grasslands in the Qilian Mountains, and it is a good place, but it does not mean that the aborigines in the Qilian Mountains grasslands like and welcome the Qiang people to stay there for a long time, and have the attitude of becoming the owners of the grasslands instead.
It's like building a house with hard work, and then some relatives in need come and stay for a while. It's okay to entertain them with food and drink, which is also the proper etiquette. But when you see these relatives living there, you won't leave.
Then not only did they continue to eat, drink, and eat, they even prepared to change the name of the house to the names of these relatives...
Who can bear this?
If the Han people are pressing harder, Beigong still has some effect. After all, the Qiang leader knows that nothing can be done with a piece of loose sand, and it cannot fight against the Han people. There must be a leader, but now the Han people do not seem to have the intention to kill them all.
, so for these Qiang people, Beigong, the so-called leader, seems to have become a burden...
Many Qiang people began to have a question in their minds: How useful is it for Beigong to listen to him?
Ever since, a strange atmosphere began to flow in the Qilian Mountain pastures, especially after it was discovered that someone was secretly in contact with the Han people outside the mountain, everything became chaotic...
