『This time…』
Fei Qian looked at the information in his hand and showed a surprised expression on his face, "Why do I feel that I have been exploited by Prime Minister Cao?"
Cao Cao's abnormal move to kill the "fire-fighting" person was naturally like a gust of wind, whistling and spreading.
In fact, Cao Cao has done the same thing in history.
The same was true for the Xuchang Rebellion, and the one who died in the rebellion at that time was Cao Cao's Chief Secretary Wang Bi.
Even Cao Pi was in Xuchang at that time, and Old Cao almost faced the pain of losing his son again!
Xu Du's huge change made Cao Cao unable to figure out how many rebellious forces Xu Du still has, and how many people are ruthlessly ruthless. Cao Cao, who is furious and suspicious, decided to cut the mess quickly, and would rather kill him by mistake than miss him...
What is the degree of the Xuchang rebellion in history? You can imagine what it would be like when Liu Bei was assassinated when Zhuge Liang, who was guarding the rear in the Hanzhong War, or when Zhuge Liang was in the Northern Expedition, Jiang Wan, who was left behind, died in Chengdu inexplicably during the rebellion.
And it's Lao Cao's basic operation anyway.
This time, Lao Cao did this, which was not exactly the same as in history. It was not clear whether there was a hidden spy or an internal influence. Anyway, I couldn't tell it clearly for a while, so I might as well just cut it forever.
Thunder means!
It’s a pity that the shock must be effective, but the accidental injury is also quite large...
Pang Tong nodded and said, "Ha, I feel the same way. Prime Minister Cao... This is a great use of it... It's just a pity..."
Fei was silent for a moment, and suddenly smiled, "It's okay..."
Pang Tong was very confused, how could it be okay?
Fei Qian glanced at Pang Tong and said, "War... is not just swords and guns..."
Pang Tong nodded and said, "There is still money and food!"
Fei Qian laughed, "Yes, there is also..." Fei Qian wanted to say the word information, but he stopped because he knew that Pang Tong might not know what information war is, and other types of wars evolved from information wars.
"Qinglong Temple?" Pang Tong asked.
Fei Qian nodded, "partial."
『Part of it?』 Pang Tong repeated it, and then asked with some doubts and confusion, "Please give me advice." Isn't scholars, farmers, industry and commerce all the things? Qinglong Temple is a scholar, money is a merchant, tools and utensils are workers, and the farm grains and grass are naturally farmers. Isn't this another war model besides soldiers?
Fei Qian frowned because some things were concepts that only later generations had, and I didn’t know what to say for a while, but when I saw Pang Tong’s eyes, Fei Qian felt as if he had returned to the foot of Lushan Mountain in a daze.
At that time, Pang Tong often became confused due to some conceptual problems, and then he was eager for new knowledge without any concealment.
"Let me say so..." Fei Qian touched his short beard, "Some time ago, we actually sent some people to Shandong and Jiangdong, right? Well, there are also those who go to southern Sichuan and Western Regions, all of them."
Pang Tong nodded. He knew this, and he still had a list of it.
"These people, I have no need to say more about whether Guanzhong is good or not, just do more things..." Fei Qian said slowly, "What are you doing? Do what the people like... Farmers will help the people take care of Zhuang He, workers will help repair tools, and even Taoist priests, so that they can relieve worries and promote good Taoism..."
"Why do these things? It is because doing these things really helps the people, and it also protects them..."
Pang Tong nodded and said, "Yes, as long as they do this, as long as they don't meet a fool, there is basically no danger." This is the truth. At first, Pang Tong didn't understand it very much when he took over this job, but then he found that this was the key to Fei Qian's eyeliner.
Generally speaking, in the current dynasty, most people in the minds of spies, spies, etc. are either cunning or cunning, or just like the ones who have been disturbed, stealing, or bribed in the Guanzhong incident these days, and they have never done "good things".
In other words, even if these people are not spies, they may be arrested if they do such things!
And once it turns out, it's interesting.
When a person does things that help local stability and people are happy, even if someone says that this person is a spy, it will attract others' suspicion, "You say such a good person is a spy? You are the spy who doesn't do good things!"
Therefore, these people are prone to gain a foothold in various places, reducing their own dangers.
This is why Fei Qian's spies, spies, or other names, and people with good names have great security guarantees in various regions. Only with personal protection can they do other things, and most of these things are risk-free...
For example, when passing messages, some messages are not even delivered directly by them, but they collect them in their daily lives, and then communicate with certain people at some point, without even avoiding others!
For example, I went to the market to buy and bargained with the people in the caravan, saying that the equipment in Chang'an is easy to use, but the blacksmith shop here is no longer good, because the old blacksmith's hand was injured some time ago, and he had no money to treat it, and he was disabled. There were no new iron tools for more than ten miles around...
Then we gathered here in Chang'an and knew that there were shortages of craftsmen in a certain place and there were no reserve blacksmiths. In a region, there were long-term shortage of craftsmen for production tools, which means that the officials here did not care about this matter at all, and even mean that the local officials may not care about the inconvenience of production and life of the people, nor do they care about the lives of the people...
Similar.
Fei Qian nodded and continued: "Not only that... Where did the new method of fertilizing farmland come from? Chang'an. Who made the tool improvement? Chang'an. The new method of Zhuanghe spacing, or Chang'an... I don't ask or say it, and when I ask, I learned it, Chang'an..."
Pang Tong laughed, "So the rumors spread in Shandong cannot be spread! Those guys said how fierce and cruel we are, how bullying the people... At first, the people were so scared, but later when they heard that it was completely different! No matter how much they were made up, they couldn't be made up!"
"Ha, that's it." Fei Qian also chuckled, "So there is a saying that facts are better than words. Following rumors, you will never please me if you are exhausted! And the most important thing is that Shandong officials... The officials and the gentry began to doubt each other in this regard... This is the method of not having bloodshed..."
Shandong officials all day long claim that the three auxiliary servants in Guanzhong are miserable, how the people in Guanzhong live in dire straits, how they are bullied and oppressed. At the beginning, the people certainly believed it, but over time, these people discovered that, it seems that this is not the case, it is completely different from what the officials said!
Officials do not take the lies seriously because they are used to lying. What are the fears of being exposed by others? There is also the next lie!
However, the people's trust in officials is gradually declining.
What is the key point that Shandong gentry and local officials control areas and control localities and cannot be easily replaced? Isn’t it just that these local gentry and wealthy families have a long-term community that combines with the people? If there is a problem, picking up radishes will bring a large piece of mud. Some local gentry even use their own network of relationships with generations, or even more than ten generations to control localities, hold the government hostage, and then threaten the court.
And now, these connections, the roots on this place, are rotting.
To accelerate this decay is actually losing mutual "trust".
In fact, these local tyrants did not start corrupt after Fei Qian, nor did they become greedy under Cao Cao's command. Instead, they were like this at the beginning. However, all along, these officials and gentry had a protective film on their bodies, and they would not emit a breath when they were covered with rotten places. Ordinary people still thought that these officials and gentry were the masters of the sunny days and were very rich in the local area.
At that time, the people still listened to what these officials who were wrapped in protective films said.
Now...
So is it because the people are becoming increasingly difficult to manage and become "disguised people" or why?
Pang Tong nodded and said, "This time, in the plan reported by Wenshi, I took the opportunity to act... Oh, I understand..."
"Yes. Prime Minister Cao took advantage of this..." Fei Qian nodded and said, "We are doing it, Prime Minister Cao is following it! Do you think Prime Minister Cao discovered this problem or... happened to catch up with this matter? Actually, this matter... I did it very early...
Fei Qian signaled to the north, "Southern Huns."
Pang Tong was stunned and immediately began to ponder.
There are many ways to disagree.
The one who says bad things behind the scenes is like Shandong's rumor in Guanzhong before, which is the worst way to spread rumors. Although it is simple and crude, it is too easy to be exposed. Once it is exposed, the mentality of being deceived and being fooled by people will be stirred up, which will lead to a "compensation" mentality.
Fei Qian took advantage of this to destroy the natural connection between local gentry and ordinary people. This method was not only carried out in Guanzhong, but also in Shandong, but also in many other places.
For example, the Southern Huns.
This is the first step.
The second step is like buying the old wizards of the Southern Xiongnu, buying some local people who are not in power but have some status. These people are stuck in the middle and have been neither up nor down for a long time. They will more or less resent, so they are most likely to be bribed.
These people may not leave their original place, and may not be promoted immediately, but they can exchange their own influence for themselves or their next generation's "happy life", just like the grandson of the old wizard in the Southern Xiongnu, who lived happily and freely in Chang'an...
The third step is to expand these bought people and gather a group of people, especially young people. Older people either have families or recognize the nature of cannibalism in the world, and have fought and been hit. Therefore, it is generally not easy to be incited, but young people are different. They also have naive and fantasy about the world, long for their own growth, and have just left their parents' protection, or have no experience of the wind and rain, and feel that they are very strong and powerful in everything, look down on their parents' "weakness" and cannot bear the slightest "grievance". They are the best group of people to encourage.
Just like Fei Qian was in the Southern Xiongnu, who gathered a large number of Southern Xiongnu teenagers who not only learned Chinese, wore Hanfu, but even toys were Han people. They thought that everything was the best for Han people...
When Fei Qian was about to count the assets of the Southern Xiongnu, these young people from the Southern Xiongnu rushed to give the clearest numbers, and said cleanly that a few hairs were lowered on Fuluo's butt curtain, because at that time, Chang'an was the good in the hearts of these young people from the Southern Xiongnu, and the Southern Xiongnu represented dirty poverty and backwardness. If this information could be exchanged for hope to run towards Chang'an, why not do it?
The fourth and third steps were not clearly distinguished at that time, but it was probably the same, just to support or borrow a leader who opposed Vroe.
At that time, there was a disagreement and gap between Huchuquan and Yu Fuluo...
The rest is naturally natural.
Civil strife in the Southern Xiongnu.
Numerous casualties.
But what is important is not the death of people and livestock, but the Southern Xiongnu completely lost their energy after that civil strife. The beliefs that were originally in the Southern Xiongnu tribe disappeared, and their trust was also lost. Even the natural bond between tribe leaders and tribal people was broken.
Later, even if Yu Fuluo knew the problem, he was powerless. The next generation he tried his best to cultivate was just fighting with the next generation who was pro-Han, fighting within the Southern Xiongnu. As long as nothing unexpected happened, the more such a fight and fight, the more difficult it would be for the Southern Xiongnu to gather together, and eventually the more power was dispersed. Even if Fei Qian did not divide the Southern Xiongnu into five divisions like Cao Cao in history, it would still make the Southern Xiongnu become weaker and weaker, and eventually they could only be divided and no longer existed.
Pang Tong knew all this.
And the second internal struggle between the Southern Xiongnu was almost a foregone conclusion...
"This is why someone has always been reluctant to come to Shandong..." Fei Qian said slowly, "Former Qin used martial arts to surrender Shandong, but he failed to obtain it. In the early Han Dynasty, he used Guanzhong to defeat Shandong, so he could also be convinced. Therefore, Guangwu changed his capital to Luoyang, but he failed to reconcile Shandong and Shanxi..."
Just like Zhuge Liang, who has been thinking about Boss Cao for the rest of his life, the Northern Expedition, perhaps on the one hand, it is because Liu Bei’s last wish needs to be fulfilled, and on the other hand, it can also avenge himself. The rest may be some private revenge that the family was destroyed back then...
Of course, this is just Fei Qian's personal guess.
But it may also be true.
Even in later generations, the barriers between various places are still very difficult. From time to time, people intentionally or unintentionally openly abandon a unified name and publicize that I represent someone, and you are someone, how to do it...
So how many of these natural or unnatural barriers are left behind in history, and how many of them are intentional or unintentional additions by subsequent people?
China is a huge country and a multi-ethnic territory. It is too easy to find some old past events, new grudges, and old hatreds.
Pang Tong nodded and said, "So they were waiting for their own troubles... and they were like the Southern Xiongnu...."
Fei Qian said: "What a pity, this time, Prime Minister Cao's movements were too fast... Or rather, he got stuck in this line just right... If it takes a few more days, Jizhou will start to make trouble..."
『Well…』 Pang Tong nodded slightly, 『It is true. Now under the thunder of Yingchuan, most people in Jizhou dare not move rashly...』
After Cao Cao became the prime minister, he adopted a strategy of dispersed resettlement for some people in Jizhou, which made it more difficult to gather the power of those in Jizhou again. After all, it is not like a future generation. You can just post an article on the Internet, and you can see it thousands of miles away, and you can also remotely control the command.
"Let the people of Jizhou send a message, Jizhou... pause for a moment..." Fei Qian said, "If the people of Jizhou themselves do not move, our people will be too obvious..."
Pang Tong nodded and said, "Abide by the order."
Fei Qian laughed and said, "Let Derun not worry, there is still a chance in the future!"
Pang Tong agreed with a smile.
Previously, the Wenshi wanted to push the situation between Jizhou and Yuzhou to add some trouble to Lao Cao, but unfortunately, not everything can be done. Before Jizhou was completely incited, Lao Cao took action in Yuzhou, directly triggering the problem in Yingchuan, and then completely extinguished it with a thunderous attitude... Well, it was not completely, it was just one cut and cut off the most serious lesions regardless of whether it was good or bad.
Because the hidden dangers have not been eliminated, Lao Cao still does not have enough probes. His position is too high, even higher than Feiqian. It is very difficult to know the situation at the grassroots level after so many layers.
Fei Qian often secretly ran to the three auxiliary places in Guanzhong. Lao Cao basically lived in Xuxian and Yecheng, and rarely went to the countryside. At most, he stayed in the Cao army camp. Perhaps Lao Cao himself did not realize that he was getting farther and farther away from the bottom.
So Lao Cao wanted to make some changes, but he didn't know what to do to be the most appropriate. Killing is very simple, but it is actually far from the point of wanting to make the killing person have a real effect.
Officials in the Han Dynasty were lifelong, and as long as conditions permit, they could be officials for life.
However, the gap between Shandong and Shanxi is constantly widening.
During these years, Fei Qian opened up the overall promotion channels from the people to officials, from officials to officials, from local officials to central government. Although there is indeed some randomness in the promotion process at present, it is already a huge breakthrough compared to the previous officialdom that was monopolized by the gentry and powerful.
And under Fei Qian's command, the welfare of officials is also very high. Just an ordinary minor official is enough to make the family live without worries. However, similarly, Fei Qian's standards for officials are becoming more and more strict, and he is gradually cultivating a positive incentive system where the more salary you have to do, the more you do, the better, and naturally the more salary you pay.
In the official system, it is still impossible to say that everything can go well, and there are still problems of one kind or another. However, it can be said that Fei Qian has implemented this strategy now, which is much more advanced than that of Lao Cao, at least it has been promoted and used in later generations. In later generations, the positive salary system is not only used in officialdom, but also in enterprises, and even marginal rural areas and small workshops, which are more or less related. It is a very generalized method and can naturally be applied to the current Han Dynasty.
Of course, among these systems, the most important ones are still standards and those who implement them.
If Fei Qian promotes the Qinglong Temple Thesis to be a high ground for forcing the standards, it would be better to say that Fei Qian wants to acquire those who can come together with him in this process!
How can everything go well in the world?
