Dogs jump over the wall when they are anxious, but what about people when they are anxious?
Not only can you jump over walls, but you can also go to the sky!
In fact, Wubao was not originally used to fight against the court. Just like most inventions and research, they were not actually used to kill people, such as nuclear energy, biochemical...
In the early days, Wubao was helpless. Because the court had no way to manage the local area, not only the border could be breached by nomads at any time, but there were even thieves and bandits doing evil in the local area. Once these thieves came, those
Most of the county officials fled immediately, so that in the end the country gentry had to resist on their own, forcing some powerful local families to build forts to defend themselves.
So, from this point of view, Wubao was good at first.
But what China lacks most is good methods and good policies. In the end, there are examples of things that went wrong and went bad.
If it weren't for Fei Qian, well, then, there would be a stir under the skirts of the historical lady. It is impossible to say that the buttocks of the landlord class would not be crooked, and they would still sit steadily until the small-scale peasant economy and the isolation of the country reached its peak.
.
The landlord class must encourage the small peasant economy and the autonomy of the gentry. It will not have any intention of complete integration when it cedes land such as Wubao. This is caused by its characteristics. The contradiction between big landowners and small landowners is even more serious.
Most of this is reflected in internal competition for cultivated land. Lack of progress and lack of motivation for technological innovation will inevitably lead to subsequent secondary disasters.
In the original history, the combat effectiveness of Wubao, or the soldiers in counties and counties, was quite worrying. Whether it was the Han, Tang, or Song and Ming dynasties, once the central imperial army was defeated, the soldiers in the counties and counties below were simply a puddle of mud, without much combat effectiveness at all.
These county soldiers are cruel when oppressing the people, and bend their knees when facing foreign enemies, so that Wubao can only protect a small part of the Chinese nation, while most of the people are harvested again and again.
.
Therefore, it can be said that the tragedy of China's later period was not a disaster caused by foreign guns and cannons suddenly falling from the sky, but a dead end that China itself walked out of the fields step by step.
So Fei Qian wanted to give China another way of thinking...
go ahead.
As long as you stride forward, where is the straight ahead?
If you have difficulties, find ways to overcome them.
If there is a mountain, open it up; when it encounters water, frame it;
It's like facing such a fortress. If it were to be conquered before, it would require a lot of effort and some people would have to die. In calculation, it might seem like the gain outweighs the loss. It's a difficult problem.
And then you run away from problems?
Walk around?
Did you think it was impossible, then became unnecessary, and finally gave up?
Now, Xiahou Dun is facing such a problem, or in other words, it was a problem in the past.
If we follow the old method, it is not impossible for two thousand Xiahou soldiers to attack a Wubao, but it is more difficult. Therefore, when Xiahou Dun and his troops arrived at a Wubao of Xun family, some soldiers came back to report
: "The gates of Xun's Wubao are closed tightly, and all the young men are on guard in the city. It seems that they want to reject me!"
When Xiahou Dun heard this, he couldn't help but frown: "Sure enough! These people are really unrepentant!"
The Xun family is not just Xun Yu. When Xun Shuang wanted to elect Xun Yu as the head of the family, there were people who openly opposed it, and they were Xun Shuang's brothers, so to a certain extent, the Xun family was the Xun family.
Xun Yu is Xun Yu, so they cannot be equated with each other. But in recent years, the Xun family has really made a lot of money through Xun Yu's name.
Xiahou Dun came here this time just to give Xun a chance.
And now it's clear that these guys don't want this opportunity.
Cao Tai, who was beside Xiahou Dun, laughed and said, "Maybe we are just beggars."
Cao Tai is the eldest son of Cao Ren.
Xiahou Dun glanced sideways at Cao Tai and said, "We all have the banner of the Han Dynasty, how can we beg for life?"
Cao Tai sneered and said, "Yingchuan is so rich that all the people in the world are begging for a living."
The two of them rode forward and soon arrived in front of Xunshi Wubao.
This is a fort owned by Xun Yu's fifth uncle.
Xiahou Dun raised his head and looked up, and saw that there were crowds of people on Wubao, but most of them were without helmets or armor, just strong men. It was as expected from the previous scouts.
"Can such a strong man be able to withstand swords and weapons?" Xiahou Dun looked at the Wubao and said with a sneer, "Or...you think we dare not attack?"
Cao Tai waved his hand forward and said, "Here comes someone! Come forward and shout!"
Immediately, some soldiers arrived under Wubao and shouted loudly, asking the people in Wubao to open the door.
However, after shouting three times in a row, there was only restlessness on top of the Wubao. The door was not opened, and no one came out to talk.
Xiahou Dun chuckled.
Sure enough.
Xun Yu's fifth uncle naturally claimed to be the mainstay of the Xun family, especially after Xun Shuang's death. Moreover, Xun Wang also believed that he should receive more preferential treatment at such an old age.
Although these days have not yet reached the extreme situation of no poor family in the upper class and no noble family in the lower class, the sectarianism is already relatively deep. If it is divided from 1 to 100, and above 60 is considered a noble family, the Yingchuan Xun family is at least 80 or above, like
The Chen family, Guo family, Zhong family, etc. are all at least four or five points lower than the Xun family.
As for the Kong family, because the people are too mixed, the score is even lower.
Among these noble clan systems, each has its own ideas, some are relatively conservative, and some are exploring the future, but I don’t know whether it is due to age or geographical restrictions. Anyway, Xun Wang did not feel that he
What's wrong with making money from your own clan members?
Why can’t I make money based on my own skills?
So when Xiahou Dun came, Xun Wang still felt that he could not bow his head.
Xiahou Dun nodded to Cao Tai, and Cao Tai returned the salute. Then he led some soldiers forward and stood within a stone's throw of Wubao. He looked at the people on Xunshi Wubao and said loudly:
"The Prime Minister has ordered that ordinary scholars should search their hearts and ask questions. There are three things you should not laugh at in life: do not laugh at natural disasters, do not laugh at man-made disasters, and do not laugh at diseases."
"There are three things that cannot be insulted when a person is established: the teacher who educates people, the doctor who saves people, and the army who protects the country."
"In the annals of history, there are three things that cannot be spared: ministers who harm the country, generals who harm the army, and thieves who harm the people."
"There are three things that cannot be avoided in the seclusion of the countryside: asking for orders for the people, going to danger for the country, and accepting orders in times of danger."
"When doing business and buying property, there are three things that cannot be plundered: wealth from national disasters, profits from natural disasters, and food from the poor and weak."
"Today there are Xun Wang and Xun Wang who use natural disasters and fake man-made disasters to humiliate the country's army and seize the people's food. They don't think about asking for orders for the people and go into trouble for the country. They only know their own interests and pursue their selfish desires. They are actually thieves who harm the people, especially
If you don't repent, you should be punished!"
"This order!"
Xun Wang, who was on top of Wubao, could not bear it anymore and shouted loudly, "Bloody mouth... bloody mouth spitting at people... fake, all fake..."
Cao Tai sneered twice and waved his hand to signal the soldiers to come forward.
Immediately, Cao's soldiers raised their shields and stepped forward in formation, while the top of the Wubao also began to shoot arrows downwards, and began to throw stones and logs downwards.
However, these measures were not as effective as the Xun's descendants imagined in preventing the approaching Cao army. These battle-hardened soldiers quickly avoided their attacks, and no one was even injured under the rolling stones and trees!
Because the movements of these Xun disciples were so slow, and the entire forward swing from lifting the hammer to putting it down was so long, even the soldiers of Cao's army could give instructions slowly, change direction, and then escape unscathed.
avoided...
Although ordinary bows and arrows look good when shot, they are all uneven, and when these Xun disciples usually practice, most of them are shooting at fixed targets. For Cao's soldiers, this kind of moving target
It cannot adapt well, so that most of the arrows fired will miss. Even if some arrows hit, there are shields and armors, which cannot directly cause serious damage to Cao's soldiers.
All of this, just like the sturdy Wubao they claim to be, is actually only indestructible in their self-perception. As Cao's soldiers dug a hole under the gate of Wubao under the cover of shields,
After the gunpowder was buried in the hole, everything became a foregone conclusion.
In the crash, the gate of Xunwang's Wubao collapsed, as if something was collapsing...
On the other side, there are also some forts in Jiangdong.
In the north of the Yangtze River, which can be regarded as the Huaisi area, there is a Wubao. In terms of the size of its land area, it is hardly smaller than the county seat. In an emergency, it can accommodate 20,000 to 30,000 people.
Of course, even when it was most prosperous, this place called Chenjiabao did not have a population of 20,000 to 30,000. Now, due to successive wars, the number of households has shrunk even more, and the people protected by Wubao have
, including those in the nearby area, there are only about 2,000 households, approximately 10,000 people.
However, in this area where most forces are not fully able to set foot, Chenjiabao can be said to be a considerable force. If necessary, it can bring out two thousand peasant soldiers, of which 20 to 30% are armed.
Hundreds of people wearing armor, this is undoubtedly the largest armed force in the surrounding area.
The owners of Wubao are two brothers, both surnamed Chen. It is said that the Chen family of Yingchuan migrated here.
But in fact, they have nothing to do with the Chen family in Yingchuan. It's just that the two Chen brothers borrowed the name of the Chen family in Yingchuan.
The large-scale migration of the Yingchuan gentry to the south happened after the Jin Dynasty. At this point in time, most of the Yingchuan gentry were still living well in Yuzhou, falling in love with Boss Cao and not migrating abroad much.
of.
Therefore, the two Chen brothers, the so-called Chen family of Yingchuan, can at best be regarded as "offsprings of a poor family". Although they claim to be descendants of a certain young master from Tian Qi, they are of the same origin as the Chen family of Yingchuan.
Above. It was probably a certain period of time, maybe they were hijacked during the Yellow Turban Rebellion. Then Zhang Jiao and others failed, and the Yellow Turbans lost their future. Then they were intercepted by the two Chen brothers, and then gathered some.
It probably developed as a batch of refugees.
Because it is relatively remote and has no strategic value that must be attacked, neither Cao Jun nor Jiangdong has any desire to attack.
Therefore, the two Chen brothers naturally became the fence-sitters. Cao Cao is here, boss Cao is good, Sun Quan is here, and Emperor Sun is good. Although they can survive by swinging like this, but for the two Chen brothers, it is
I feel very shortchanged, swinging from side to side, as if being squeezed dry by two sticks...
After all, landowners who do not have an official position are actually no different from ordinary farmers to a certain extent. They cannot escape the fate of being oppressed and ravaged by powerful men. The reason why the Chen family can stand out and gather tens of thousands of people is not because of the two Chen brothers.
He has extraordinary talents, one is because the Yellow Turban Thief also wanted to survive before, and only the two Chen brothers knew some of the overall planning, and the other is just on the edge, and no one takes notice of him.
However, the two Chen brothers are getting older and have children, and they are often thinking that they can't stay in this remote place forever? According to the traditional Confucian theory, the monarch does not need to be too powerful, because he is powerful.
And without any restrictions, it is easy to become self-willed and arbitrary, which will ruin the country. The only talent a monarch must have is to be able to identify and appoint wise ministers, and then let those ministers actually manage the country. Ministers have
The monarch can control him and remove him at any time. The best representative of this theory is Qi Huangong in the early period. He only wanted to eat, drink and have fun in the inner palace, and go boating on the lake with his concubines. He only had to appoint and absolutely trust the virtuous ministers.
Guan Zhong and Bao Shuya naturally governed the country.
In the current Han Dynasty, there is still such a market for ideas, and the two Chen brothers are part of it. They have consciously managed such a large territory by themselves, and with such a large population, although they are not great sages, they are more or less sages.
You still have a share, but in the end, you don’t have your own place in the court?
When Sun Quan marched before, the two Chen brothers were not without thoughts of surrendering, but in the end they decided to wait and see again, so they just sent some cattle, wine and property to show their loyalty, which was regarded as an exchange for peace. Who would have thought
Not long after, news came that Jiangdong Army had withdrawn...
The eldest brother of the Chen family couldn't help but patted his brother on the shoulder and praised him repeatedly, saying that he was lucky to have listened to the second brother's advice and waited any longer without rushing to express his position. It would be fine if Jiangdong soldiers could directly occupy the Huaisi area. The result looked like
They were so aggressive that they withdrew their troops not long after the fight. If the two Chen brothers had surrendered before, wouldn't they be allowed to follow Sun Quan and retreat to Jiangdong?
But who would be willing to give up such a big fortress, so much land, and the scenery where one can run rampant in this countryside?
But on this day, things changed again.
A descendant of the Cao family came to contact him and expressed his willingness to accept the two Chen brothers, and even promised to give him a certain official position. The only condition was that he must break away from Jiangdong and serve Cao Cao from now on.
Of course, this condition is reasonable, after all, no one would say that there are no requirements for benefits.
The two Chen brothers didn't think much about it. They thought they had an advantage to take advantage of, so they just agreed. They could consciously get rid of some official positions first. At worst, they would take the official positions given by Cao Cao and go to Jiangdong to negotiate terms.
Beautiful.
However, the envoy from Cao Cao's side was not stupid, saying that the two Chen brothers must pay some "vouchers of surrender" in order to be believed in his sincerity...
The two Chen brothers thought about it and thought that if they didn't seize the opportunity, there would be no store like this in the village!
Anyway, let’s take it first. As for what happens next, after Cao Cao’s envoy leaves, don’t you have the final say?
So according to the instructions of Cao Cao's envoy, two large flags were erected. One was the Cao family flag indicating that it belonged to Cao Cao, and the other was a sign of contempt for Jiangdong.
What? How does the flag express contempt? You don’t know how to write the four characters "江东小儿"?
The two Chen brothers realized that since their home was in a remote place, the flag was put up to fool Cao Cao's envoy. They would put it down as soon as the envoy left and the official seal would be obtained. As for the Jiangdong people, they would give an explanation.
Okay, no big deal.
But it is a pity that the flag raised by the two Chen brothers this time was quickly detected by Jiangdong scouts...
And because of the obedient attitude shown by the two Chen brothers when Sun Dadi marched against Qingxu, the current behavior of the two Chen brothers was naturally regarded as a kind of "rebellion" by the Jiangdong scouts!
The Chen family in Huaisi rebelled!
Can this be false?
Didn't you see the bright "Jiangdong child" fluttering in the wind?
The news was passed to Jiangdong, which immediately caused a turmoil, and among the turmoil was Zhu Zhi. Because at that time, he accepted and acquiesced to the "surrender" of the two Chen brothers, and did not send troops to attack later, it was Zhu Zhi who
.
From a military perspective, Zhu Zhi's main strategic target at that time was Cao Cao, who was the Guangling army. As for the more remote Wubao of the two Chen brothers, it could be fought or not. It was like a piece of chicken ribs. If you hit it, you might get two bites.
, but there is not much meat, and there is also the risk of splitting up the troops and being attacked by surprise. As Zhu Zhi, who insists on developing himself and expanding his own strength as soon as he comes on the field, and putting safety first, it is normal not to fight the two Chen brothers.
things.
But now, this move, which was normal at the time, has become less normal.
There are even rumors that Zhu Zhi has been connected with Cao Cao for a long time!
The two Chen brothers are the so-called "clear evidence"!
I also heard that the two Chen brothers are "Yingchuan Chen"!
And Zhu Zhi and the so-called "Yingchuan Chen Family" Chen brothers turned out to have "a flirting with each other, but never made a mistake". Doesn't this prove that Zhu Zhi has rebelled against Jiangdong and betrayed "Emperor Sun"?
Coupled with the previous incident of Sun Quan sending Ji Yan to investigate the spies in Jiangbei, there was an uproar and an uproar broke out for a while!
Many people wrote letters one after another, saying that Zhu Zhi was "suspected" no matter what, and asked Sun Quan to make an early decision and arrest Zhu Zhi! If Zhu Zhi is not guilty, wouldn't it be possible to prove his innocence after investigation? If Zhu Zhi is guilty,
It’s about taking early precautions to avoid disasters!
Does this kind of advice make sense?
And Sun Quan happened to be a little dissatisfied with Zhu Zhi before, so he ordered an inspection...
The three nos in the article are from modern times, but I think they are also good to use here.
