Although it has entered midsummer, there is still a bit of coolness in the middle of the night. Even with the hustle and bustle of the day, it is still unable to resist the slightest chill that arises leisurely in the dark night. In other words, this chill comes from the heart, not from the heart.
It's on the skin.
General Hussar, well, Fei Qian, who was about to be promoted to General Hussar, put huge pressure on the political group on Cao Cao's side. Just like the boundless night in front of us, even if we could hold up candles and light lanterns
, holding the torch high, but the darkness is still pressing on my head and my heart, which cannot be removed or avoided.
The disputes between Shandong and Shanxi had actually been planted since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and then continued into the Tang Dynasty. Huge irreconcilable conflicts broke out at the Xuanwu Gate, reaching their peak, and continued throughout the Tang Dynasty.
, and also influenced subsequent dynasties.
The current dispute between Fei Qian and Cao Cao is not just a duel between these two people, nor is it a personal grudge between the two people, but a duel between the political groups represented by the two people. It started from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period until now.
The showdown between the people of Shandong and Shanxi.
After the Spring and Autumn Period, at the beginning of the Warring States Period, disputes between Shandong and Shanxi had continued, whether politically, economically, or militarily. Countries such as Qi and Lu in Shandong at that time often mocked Qin in Shanxi.
He is a native, a country bumpkin stained with fishy smell, a woodchuck with no knowledge, no skills, no etiquette and no scriptures.
Not to mention the State of Lu at that time, the Academy of Qi State was world-famous and its culture was at its peak, surpassing the Central Plains.
Well, although that half month, uh, Empress Dowager Miyue did openly tell the story of her and Ying Si on the bed in front of the court, and she did so in front of foreign envoys.
It is true that the people of Qin did not pay much attention to these etiquette norms at that time.
But in the end it was the Qin people who were called half Qiang Rong who unified the country.
How does this make people in Shandong feel uncomfortable?
Even later, in the early Han Dynasty, some people instigated Qi King Han Xin to rebel, and then during the period of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, there were still rebellions in the Shandong vassal states. Eventually, during the Western Han Dynasty, the continuous cutting of Shandong leeks was a kind of political correctness, and several
Tens of thousands of large households were moved to Guanzhong, which made Chang'an prosperous, but also left behind deep hatred.
Later, after Emperor Guangwu relied on the power of Jizhou and Yuzhou to reunify the Han Dynasty, the conflicts and estrangements between Shandong and Shanxi not only failed to be alleviated, but gradually deepened.
After all, what Confucian students often talk about is that a gentleman's revenge is never too late in ten years. As the saying goes, it takes ten years to gather together, and ten years to teach lessons. Twenty years later, Wu Qi is a swamp!
The strategy Guo Jia is now offering to Boss Cao is a gentleman's revenge.
Well, it's not about killing someone with a borrowed knife, or driving a tiger to devour a wolf. At most, it's a bit of sowing discord, or two peaches killing three people. But more importantly, it's more about advising Cao Cao to be patient, to accumulate strength, to face the fundamental problems, and not to rush for success.
.This is the same as in the novel, Guo Jia gave Cao Cao ten victories and ten defeats against Yuan Shao.
In the novel, after Guo Jia presented the strategy of ten victories and ten defeats, he strategically despised Yuan Shao and turned to Cao Cao and said, you see we have such a huge advantage against Yuan Shao, so let’s fight Lu Bu first.
The same is true now.
After Guo Jia presented the relevant strategies against Fei Qian, he turned to Cao Cao and said: Therefore, my lord, please take the position of general and worship the position of prime minister!
Change your worship to the Prime Minister?! Cao Cao suddenly frowned, and then felt a little enlightened.
Guo Jia nodded slightly. The position of prime minister is the leader of all officials in the world and should be promoted by the public.
Well, Cao Cao pondered and thought.
Lord, you might as well recall that Guo Jia reached out and pointed outside the hall. How did he obtain Yuzhou? Was it achieved overnight?
Cao Cao raised his eyebrows, this
Yuzhou, six counties.
Cao Cao's occupation of Yuzhou was not like in the game, with a bang, the city was captured, and then the color changed instantly, but it went through a process that was neither short nor long.
The first one to be attributed to Cao Cao was Yingchuan. On the one hand, Cao Cao, with the cooperation of Xun Yu and others, defeated the remnant Yellow Turban army near Yingchuan. After basically taking control of Yingchuan, Cao Cao launched an attack on the Yellow Turbans in Runan.
, and later on, the Runan area was generally controlled.
Then the Liang Kingdom was not completely occupied until just before Guandu. There was an episode at that time. When Cao Cao was chasing Yuan Shu, he had no money to reward the soldiers, so he opened a package.
Tomb of King Liang.
Those were the blind boxes of the Liang kings of the 10th and 7th generations of the Western Han Dynasty and the 7th and 8th generations of the Eastern Han Dynasty! They were definitely more reliable than the blind boxes sold by some heartless beasts!
Later, when the emperor heard about this, he burst into tears.
I don’t know what sadness is
As for Pei, Chen and Lu, they were relatively far behind. It was only after defeating Yuan Shu and Lu Bu that they took control of their territory relatively completely.
Of course, overall, Cao Cao's process of obtaining Yuzhou was relatively easy. Because of the support of Yingchuan Xunyu and others, there were no duplications. Many places were even captured through peaceful means, and there were no tragedies.
siege warfare.
The reason why Guo Jia talked about the situation in Yuzhou was, of course, referring to Jizhou.
From a certain perspective, Cao Cao is now in an embarrassing situation because Jizhou is currently at odds with his subordinates. On the surface, he has changed his flag, but in fact it is similar to that of Yuan Shao.
The meaning of filial piety is what Cao Cao said slowly, is someone impatient?
Guo Jia was silent.
Cao Cao frowned deeply.
Are you still impatient?
So if you're not in a hurry, how much time do you need?
Will Fei Qian give me so much time?
After applying some of Fei Qian's military technological updates, Cao Cao felt more and more that time was running out, and he even felt as if he was being chased by time and was about to crush his ass and lose his fortune.
My lord, haste makes waste, Guo Jia said, if Hebei and Yu join forces, it will be like the time of Guangwu, so why fear Guanzhong? Nowadays, Jizhou appears to be the same, but there are many repetitive thoughts. If it is not sorted out in time, there will be slight changes.
, is to shake the foundation, wouldn’t it become more and more difficult?
Cao Cao's eyes moved slightly, as if he was weighing the pros and cons.
When Cao Cao was young, he actually had the same idea as Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu. He felt that if he conquered Jizhou and Yuzhou, he would conquer the world. As the old saying goes, he who conquers the Central Plains can conquer the world. Therefore, in the early days of the war against Dong, Yuan Shu took advantage of the Yuan family and occupied the country.
After arriving in Yuzhou, Yuan Shao was staring at Jizhou, and Cao Cao could only be sandwiched in the middle, serving as an air bed for the two Yuans, or some other buffer.
But at this moment, Cao Cao gradually began to doubt the correctness of the saying that whoever conquers the Central Plains can conquer the world, and re-evaluated the old road before Guangwu, whether it was suitable to drive it again.
Having more people is indeed an advantage, but when there are more people, there will be more thoughts, more desires, and more contradictions. If we cannot reconcile these scattered thoughts and desires and unify them into one place,
It can't be said that the combat effectiveness is stronger when there are fewer people.
One year later, Guo Jia made another point in the Qinglong Temple lecture.
Cao Cao suddenly thought of something and opened his eyes to look at Guo Jia, scripture annotation?!
Guo Jia nodded slowly, this is the great enemy of Shandong, just like the old red eyebrows. With this enemy on the left and mutual benefits on the right, why worry about Jizhou not following? If Jizhou follows, Qingxu will also be determined, what worries does the lord have?
Cao Cao took a deep breath, stood up, walked around the hall twice with his hands behind his back, and finally nodded, what Feng Xiao said was true! So he followed this plan!
?(Д′*)9
When we came out of the General's Mansion, it was already approaching dawn.
Guo Jia rubbed his hands and let out a breath. There still seemed to be some chill between his brows.
Is this still summer?
Guo Jia murmured subconsciously.
The entourage outside the mansion came forward and asked Guo Jia to get in the car, but Guo Jia waved his hand and said, "No, I want to walk to the market."
The midsummer dawn is still a bit chilly. Just like the current Cao Cao political group, it looks like flowers in bloom, but there is always a major and fatal hidden danger that is difficult to cure, which is the lack of loyalty within the Cao Cao regime.
and trust.
There are many factors that cause this hidden danger, including the various thoughts of the nobles, but also Cao Cao's own character of doubting everything in his heart. Cao Cao did not trust and did not rely on people with foreign surnames, which led to political problems under Cao Cao.
There was a serious lack of due loyalty and trust within the group, and this situation further pushed Cao Cao to rely on his own family to conquer the world.
perhaps
Welcoming the Emperor
Guo Jia walked slowly along the street, his thoughts slowly spreading.
In history, this was true not only for the Cao Wei regime, but also for the Sima Jin Dynasty that was formed later.
Born in doubt, died in doubt.
Although it is said in the history books that Cao Cao had five good generals under his command, it seems that Cao Cao treated these generals with foreign surnames very well, but in fact, most of the time, Cao Cao and the heirs of the Cao family never fully delegated general power to these generals with foreign surnames.
The situation was better in Cao Cao's era, and various clan figures were generally reused. After Cao Pi succeeded to the throne, the trust situation within his team further deteriorated. Cao Pi also did not trust his own brothers, and could only rely on his clan elders and not his own.
The brothers took strict precautions, while Cao Zhang, Cao Zhi and other prince-level figures were almost placed under house arrest. This situation led to the decline of Cao Xiu, Cao Zhen and other important officials in the clan, and there was no one available for the center of Cao Wei. There was really no way to hand over the power of commanding the army to Sima Yi.
, and because the clan members were weak, the Emperor Cao had no power to restrain his powerful ministers, so power quickly fell into the hands of Sima Yi and his son.
After Sima Yan replaced the Wei Dynasty and established the Jin Dynasty, the Sima clan learned from the lessons learned from the fall of Cao Wei and enfeoffed all the kings. All the important powers were concentrated in the hands of the Sima clan. They believed that if they continued like this, they would use the powerful strength of the kings to defend the center and the emperor.
You can sit back and relax, but you don't realize that the problems left by this are more serious. Suspiciousness has become an incurable cancer. Not long after Sima Yan's death, the Sima family was immediately filled with chaos and chaos.
Of course Guo Jia didn't know the direction of Cao Wei's and Sima's regimes in history, but that didn't stop him from being a top strategist from being aware of the hidden dangers in this area in advance, and taking this opportunity to make suggestions for Cao Cao on the one hand, and on the other hand.
It is to smooth things over for Xun Yu. In addition to these two aspects, it is an attempt to treat and eliminate the political atmosphere of suspicion that Cao Cao has formed among the political groups.
But, this is a bit difficult
Unknowingly, Guo Jia had already passed the intersection.
The gates of the shops are opening one after another, and the small breakfast vendors who have come out to make a living early in the morning are also setting up shop in the streets and alleys. The heat from the pots and pots in the stalls is rising, adding some warmth to this slightly cold midsummer dawn.
Guo Jia suddenly felt a little hungry, so he touched his sleeves and found no money. He touched his waist again and found that he didn't have any money. So he turned back and said to the entourage following him: "Which of you has any money?"
Lend me some first and I'll give it to you later
this
The entourage following Guo Jia was stunned, and then someone responded, "Lang Jun, don't you want to buy wine again? You didn't pay back the money you borrowed to buy wine last time."
Shut up! An older attendant quickly glanced at the small vendor standing aside and found that it was unlikely that he was selling any drinks. He smiled and took out a small money bag from his arms.
While handing it to Guo Jia, he said, "Don't be surprised, sir. This boy is speechless. Don't be surprised, sir."
Guo Jia took the money bag and frowned slightly.
The money bag is not heavy, which means there is not much money in it.
Of course, it’s just breakfast, and it doesn’t cost much. But in such a situation, the reaction of these followers
Guo Jia sighed deeply, suddenly no longer thinking about what to eat, and threw the money bag back to the attendant. Well, suddenly he wasn't hungry anymore. Let's get in the car! Go home!
He suddenly understood.
Sometimes, more and less actually change. And this change will be due to different people and class inconsistencies, resulting in considerable differences. And such differences, with Guo Jia's intelligence, are all
Don't know how to eliminate it.
Although the entourage didn't know what was going on and didn't know what Guo Jia was thinking, he was very happy to go home after staying up most of the night in the gatehouse of the General's Mansion. He hurriedly pulled the cart over and helped him
Guo Jia got in the car and headed home.
Guo Jia sat in the car and glanced at the busy vendors. Looking at these figures in the morning light, a somewhat sad feeling suddenly emerged in his heart.
But, how did this hussar do it?
Isn't he afraid that one day these differences will surge overwhelmingly and drown him?
call
Guo Jia looked up at the sky.
In the morning light, the sky gradually became brighter, and white clouds slowly floated in the sky.
At this moment, in Liaodong, there are also people looking up at the same sky, but facing different white clouds.
Just a few days ago, Gongsun's reinforcements, which were finally pulled together, were said to be one hundred thousand strong, and they were fighting with the Ding Ling people outside the city.
Big defeat.
This is really frustrating.
Nowadays, the situation in Liaodong is changing rapidly. Since the end of last year, when the Ding Ling people began to invade Liaodong, in the past six months, they have fought almost consecutive battles and conquered nearly half of the counties in Liaodong.
Gongsun Du claimed to be the king of Liaodong. He once thought that as long as he showed his strength, he could directly take over the land of Youyan and make the Gongsun family proud. But what he didn't expect was that it would be fine if he didn't take action. In a place in Liaodong
After this battle, not only the true and falsehood of the Liaodong Army was exposed, but in the end it also forged a small amount of hatred with the Ding Ling people.
For the Ding Ling people, the originally powerful opponent is worthy of respect, but if he once became his own dog, but turned his back and bit his owner in the blink of an eye, he should never be easily forgiven!
Fighting in Liaodong, for the Ding Ling people, is to punish the dog that betrayed them! The fighting became more and more ruthless, and then
When Gongsun Kang saw the result in the city, he almost felt his eyes darken. This feeling was even more sad and helpless than when he heard about the death of his father before.
How could these people in this world, this Liaodong, be like this!
Of course, there are some things in this that he is actually somewhat clear about.
The so-called reinforcements this time have many aspects of Liaodong's operations, including his father's decades of management, the differences between Han and Hu people, and the determination of the large local families who were plundered. Gongsun Kang is also in the middle.
They have made the greatest efforts, made the greatest concessions, and promised the greatest benefits, but these patchwork reinforcements have inherent hidden dangers.
In other words, although the goal is the same, to drive away the Ding Ling people, the intentions of various aspects of the reinforcements are different.
Ordinary people, at most, just want to drive away the Ding Ling people as soon as possible, so no matter who leads them, as long as they can lead them to defeat the Ding Ling people, then they are willing to listen to whoever
But other people's thoughts and the size of the benefits they want are not the same.
Some people want more, like Gongsun Kang's biological brother.
Gongsun Kang knew that his brother wanted to pacify Liaodong and seize his father's position as governor of Liaodong. But now that the city is besieged by Ding Ling people, even Ding Ling people can only attack ants, which has caused great harm to Gongsun Kang.
To avoid harming yourself, in order to avoid being trapped and dead in the city, you can only look at the present first.
Among the powerful families in Liaodong, there are also many who want it. Although the pain of the Ding Ling people's robbery forced these powerful families to unite and send troops, many people still hold on to the idea of changing their masters anyway.
, maybe we can also negotiate with the Ding Ling people. If we hadn't caught one or two people who were secretly collaborating with the Ding Ling people to serve as a warning, there's no way these big business owners would have turned around and surrendered to the Ding Ling people!
As for the so-called allies of Goguryeo and Buyeo, they are even more unreliable.
But the problem is, no matter how unreliable they are, even if there are different thoughts among the reinforcements, the number of people is there, how could they be defeated like this?!
Although one hundred thousand is an imaginary number, there are still more than ten thousand, and they were defeated so easily by the Ding Ling people!
Gongsun Kang couldn't help but recall his previous experience in the Battle of Youzhou, and then he felt more and more frustrated.
Three thousand hussars can fight against tens of thousands of soldiers, but they are running away.
And Ding Ling's thousands of people can kill more than 10,000 Gongsun's reinforcements until they lose their troops and armor.
In comparison, what is Gongsun Jun?
Third-rate?
Gongsun Kang's eyesight turned black for a while.
Why is there such a big gap between people who are both Han Chinese?
