Chapter 2907: The madman goes eastward, and the chaser also goes eastward
The Western Regions were China's first step in trying to go abroad since the Han Dynasty.
After all, no matter what, the Silk Road is still relatively in line with the current level of productivity development in the Han Dynasty.
Navigation skills must reach a certain level in order to smoothly access the East China Sea and southern Xinjiang.
Although the snow area is also accessible by land, it is still too difficult to travel compared to the Western Region. Even in later generations, not everyone can come and go casually, and complications of altitude sickness may occur halfway...
Therefore, this step in the Western Region is actually very critical.
The fundamental point of the Han Dynasty's management of the Western Regions before was not to go out, but to fight against the Xiongnu. Therefore, after this direction was wrong, the importance of the Western Regions quickly declined after the Xiongnu weakened. Later, Han Yu said that China "
"The land is vast and the resources are abundant"...
Well, Mr. Lu also said the same thing about "the land is vast and the resources are abundant".
Obviously, neither Han Yu nor Lu Xun are bad people. It is not a problem to say that China has a vast land and rich resources. The problem is that some people use the topic to play on it, some people take it out of context, and some people are not good at others. It is like a capitalist who sees an ordinary person making one yuan more and losing a thousand yuan than him.
Everyone feels sad.
China is actually very poor.
Throughout history, compared to other large countries, China really has no advantages.
America has a lot of coal and gas, and a lot of oil and shale. The country is flat and suitable for agriculture.
Australian kangaroos are rich in iron, gas and coal. The climate is extremely suitable for animal husbandry and marine breeding.
Da Xiong’s home is also full of wood, oil, gas and coal.
Then look at China. It is short of oil, gas, and coal, especially high-quality coal. It is also short of iron, and it is also short of high-quality iron ore. Copper ore, silver, and gold are all in short supply. The area of arable land is small, and the hilly areas are doomed.
It is impossible to farm large areas mechanically. Moreover, there are twenty neighbors in the surrounding area, most of whom are not the owners of Taiping. From ancient times to later generations, there are many old and new grudges!
In this environment, can you still indulge in the dream of arrogance?
Therefore, for Fei Qian, the Western Regions must go out!
In order for China to have a broader space for future generations, this step must be taken.
If Zhang Liao had not killed anyone in the Western Regions, he might have been a better candidate to be the Protector of the Western Regions.
Zhang Liao has a cautious personality, is brave and resourceful, and can be said to be an all-rounder in both civil and military affairs, and is qualified for a big job.
It's just a pity that Zhang Liao took action. Although it was indeed necessary for Zhang Liao to take action at that time, this was not the normal way.
So now Taishi Ci has become the main candidate.
Yes, candidate, but not the only one...
If it doesn't work, Fei Qian can still transfer Jia Xu over, but that guy often likes to play with people's hearts, and he may play the people of the Western Regions to death, and it will also affect the rapid recovery and further development of the Western Regions in the future.
There will be some side effects.
After all, if someone can't see it for a while, it may not be clear for the rest of his life. When the means becomes the purpose, it will eventually be counterattacked.
The method used in extraordinary times is not suitable for all models.
What Feiqian needs is "universal", not "acting according to authority" in emergency situations.
The stability of a political structure must require the coordination of both civil and military aspects, just like human hands, which can be used to cut off a piece here and a piece there. Although it is true that it can cut lesions and remove carrion, but
Why not treat it at the early stage? Why do we have to cut off the arm and saw the thigh when we can treat it accurately?
This problem even persisted into later generations.
The step Fei Qian wants to take now is a new step forward for China.
It’s not easy to walk, but it’s necessary to walk.
Taishi Ci also understood that he had to be in step with Fei Qian, but how to be more clear about Fei Qian's intentions and implement them well? This is not just a simple "I can do it", he must
To show Fei Qian a certain ability...
Taishi Ci felt that Fei Qian definitely didn't want to take the route of keeping people in power and losing power, so Fei Qian was very cautious in dealing with Lu Bu. Therefore, Taishi Ci also needed to be careful when dealing with the issues in the Western Regions.
Be careful and don't just go up and start a fire casually.
But I can’t say nothing and do nothing…
As the saying goes, "Three things to do when a new official takes office".
Everyone seems to know that it is not good to do this. They all know that to be on the safe side, they should not try their best to show off their work ability as soon as they take office. They should build up momentum just to burn three fires. In the end, they often fail because they do not fully understand the situation.
The truth is all clear.
But many times, when you take office, you can't help but feel a little bit angry.
If you stay still for a long time, the people above will ask, Xiao, what did you do after you were down there for so long?
People below will also ask, what kind of evil is this old fool holding back, and what is he trying to do?
Then once it was burned, everyone felt comfortable except the one who was burned.
What is very interesting is, what do the three fires in the secular saying "three fires when a new official takes office" mean? The prototype actually refers to the three fires after Zhuge Liang came out of the mountain, that is, the fire of Bowangpo, the fire of Xinye and the fire of Xinye.
Red Cliff Fire.
But the problem is that these three fires were made up by Mr. Luo...
It is the fire in the novel.
In real history, these three fires have nothing to do with Brother Zhu.
The fire at Bowang Slope was set by Liu Bei, and he did not burn his pursuers, but his own camp. At that time, the two armies faced off in Bowang for a long time. Liu Bei took the initiative to change his tactics and led his army to "burn the camp and pretend to escape".
Xiahou Dun ordered a pursuit, but Lieutenant General Li Dian thought it was impossible and said that the enemy might be hiding in the grass, but Xiahou Dun refused to listen.
"Dun and others pursued him, but were defeated by an ambush. Dun and others fell into the ambush of thieves, and the battle was at a disadvantage. Dian went to save him. When Bei saw the rescue, he dispersed." If Liu Bei had not had so few soldiers at the time, it would have been impossible to say that this wave could have been counterattacked directly.
Push it to the yard city!
The Battle of Bowangpo is a classic example of Liu Bei's personal command, and it seems that as long as Cao Cao does not personally lead the troops, Liu Bei can basically defeat any of Cao Cao's generals...
After Xiahou Dun was burned and Cao Cao came, Liu Bei had no choice but to retreat.
So when Xinye became popular, it actually didn’t exist at all.
As for the fire of Red Cliff...
That's all.
So the so-called "three fires", one is "showing off the crown and wearing it", the other is "there is nothing", and the other is "standing on behalf of the peach"...
"Soga..." The king of understanding nodded repeatedly, indicating that he understood.
In later generations, the "three things to do when a new official takes office" actually refers more to "people, wealth and things".
Because the people, money and property of a unit directly control the lifeblood of the unit. Therefore, when a new leader takes office, the first thing he does is to replace the office director, because the office director is the leader's direct confidant. In addition to serving the leader,
, but also to do some things that are not convenient for the leader to come forward. At the same time, the office director plays a comprehensive coordination role, and a new person needs to be arranged, someone whom the leader can trust.
Secondly, there is the financial department. Whether it is a company or a family, whoever manages the money has the confidence. The financial affairs of a unit must be managed by people who can trust it, otherwise the leader can drink a pot of money by just doing some small tricks.
There is also human resources. The performance of the unit mainly depends on whether the people are united. The starting point is the human resources department, and then there is a big change of middle-level leadership.
At this point, after a complete change of personnel, property and resources, the new leader can fully grasp the real power of the unit.
But is this really necessary?
Many people think that after taking over the leadership, the people in the unit are basically the losers of the previous leader, so when the new leader takes office, the work is not easy to carry out, so the "three tips for new leaders to take office" are
There is no choice but to do what must be done. As for other content, such as the new official coming to change some systems, improve the office environment, put up a few posters and red banners, etc., they are actually laying the foundation for these three fires.
But the problem is, maybe sometimes it is necessary to do this, but most of the time, this thing is magnified.
Fei Qian did not want the Western Region to be the first example of "expansion" under his command.
For Taishi Ci, he must make a difference, but he cannot act haphazardly. Especially as a successor, he needs to know the path and direction so as not to go astray.
Fei Qian asked Tai Shi Ci about Lu Bu and the Western Regions. On the surface, he seemed to be talking about Lu Bu, but in fact he was asking about the entire governance of the Western Regions!
"I am... stupid," Tai Shici thought it would be better to let Fei Qian make the decision, so he said, "I don't have a clue at the moment, but my lord has given orders, and I will definitely obey them."
Does it sound good?
Correct or not?
This is where Taishi Ci is smarter than Lu Bu.
But again, this is where Taishi Ci is not smart enough...
So Fei Qian planned to let Tai Shi Ci have more memory.
Fei Qian smiled and held out two fingers, "In that case, do you think that Lu Fengxian's affairs in the Western Regions should deal with the situation and not the person, and also should deal with the person's matter."
Taishi Ci was obviously stunned, and after a moment he bowed, "Please give me some advice, my lord!"
Fei Qian nodded slightly and said: "Tian Boding is a good scholar and keeps his king, while Bai Gong is a good scholar and messes with the bushes. The good scholars are the same, but the reasons for their actions are different. Gongsunyou cuts off his own clothes and respects Baili, and erects those in the palace.
To flatter Duke Huan, the self-punishment is the same, but the reason for the self-punishment is different. Huizi said, "The madman goes eastward, and the chaser also goes eastward. When he goes eastward, it is the same, but the reason why he goes eastward is different. Therefore, it is said
Colleagues must be scrutinized. "Does Ziyi know why this is the case?"
Taishi Ci understood something, but also didn't understand something. He thought for a long time, and then said tentatively, "Han Feizi's words often imply that he abandons things and favors others. Madmen go eastward, and chasers also go eastward. Who knows this?"
Where is east? If we look at things, they are the same. If we look at people, they are different. How should we interpret this? Please teach me, Lord."
What Han Feizi said actually means that we should pay more attention to people rather than looking at things, because as Han Feizi said, it is possible for a madman to run eastward, and then a group of people will also run eastward and do the same thing.
But people are different. But wouldn't this contradict what Fei Qian said before, "Do it right, not the person"?
Fei Qian smiled and said, "It all depends on man. As someone said yesterday, man should fight with the sky, the earth, and people. Those who compete will have to do something and not do something. This is that everything depends on man... One thing should be done
If you have the intention to achieve great things, you should not be afraid of hardships and hardships. Secondly, you should know the subtleties and observe things and people."
Taishi Ci nodded and said: "That's it! If you don't know people at first, you should treat them with care! Therefore, it is said that you should deal with people but not with people. If you have known people for a long time, you should treat them with others! Therefore, it can be said that you should deal with people but not with others..."
Fei Qian nodded and said, "Zi Yi is right."
Taishi Ci was stunned, "My lord, what you want is... is there anything unfinished?"
Fei Qian nodded.
Taishi Ci frowned and began to think.
In fact, in traditional Chinese philosophy, we often hear two concepts that seem to be completely opposite. "Treating things but not people" and "Treating people but not things" are one of them.
Those who support "treating people rather than people" believe that objective factors can reflect fairness and non-prejudice; those who support "treating people rather than people" believe that human nature and ability are the key factors that determine things.
When some people are young, they think that "treating people and not people" is the supreme truth. But when they get older and have more experience, they feel that "treating people and not people" is the right thing. Of course, there are also people who are the opposite.
Come here, when I was young, I liked to look at the faces of handsome guys and beauties. No matter what handsome guys and beauties did, they were right, and their farts tasted delicious. When I got older, I realized that handsome guys and beauties also have to poop, and they are all shit.
smelly.
Therefore, in fact, whether it is about things or people, or people or things, it is all focused thinking and a simple mode.
The world is so big, things are so confusing, and people's hearts are so complicated, so I just thought about whether there is a simple way, a universal template, and then just click on it and it's done.
But obviously, this is not feasible, and this is also the important point Fei Qian wants to tell Taishi Ci in governing the Western Regions.
The more you want to simplify and model, you will find that the Western Region is not simple and cannot apply the model.
The Han Dynasty has adopted the system of prefectures and counties for three to four hundred years...
The county system is a simple local management model.
Can it really be effective when applied to the Western Regions?
Of course, it is understandable that if you really use this model, you will obviously save worry and effort.
Just like Taishi Ci "ask if you don't understand", and then said to let Fei Qian "make the final decision".
Once things become absolute, problems will arise.
Absolute disapproval of things rather than people can actually be regarded as an extremely realist attitude, because on the surface it advocates objectivity and fairness, but in fact it corresponds to short-term opportunism. Regardless of whether you are a good person or a bad person, just whether you agree with what you do or not, is approximately the same as
It just doesn’t matter whether the interests in this matter are compatible. If they agree, if they are compatible, then we will become fellow travelers and go forward together.
This means that although what everyone does looks the same on the surface, because the people doing it and the logic that drives them are different, the consequences will be different in the future. If we can go together for a while, we can go as far as we can.
It depends on when the next thing comes, whether they still agree with the same view and are compatible with the same interests. No matter how good the previous road is, they may still stab each other at the next intersection. Everything depends on the negotiation.
When it comes to business, there are no personal grudges. We can team up and break up at any time, and no one should think too much about it.
By contrast, treating people the wrong way is more of a desire than a strategy.
A wish that is actually not easy to realize.
If it becomes absolute, there will definitely be a big problem.
The desire to achieve things because of people is based on the various opinions and various interests. People still have their true nature, and then believe that the true nature of people is more reliable than these complicated opinions and interests. This kind of desire points to people.
The opinions expressed may be unclear for a while, and the interests may be temporarily divided, but the person at the bottom is still the same, and this person can be trusted, so the final result can also be trusted.
But is this possible?
It is difficult to deal with the matter rather than the person.
If you don't understand things at all times, don't know clearly, and don't know, who will be the big deal if you have something to do, and enjoy peace and happiness without anything, good things will eventually be turned into bad governance.
The difficulty lies in treating people and not doing things right.
Who can guarantee that this person can see everything accurately?
Even if you have spotted a person for a while, as time goes by and things change, people will change accordingly. At that time, can the person after the change still be the same person as before?
To identify a person's ability, most of this ability is reflected in the resume. If it is not in the resume, you can also use the job to test it. However, there is no universally reliable method to detect how a person is.
At the moment, Taishi Ci had a headache the more he thought about it. Before he talked to Fei Qian, he felt that his brain was still sufficient, but he didn't expect that the more he talked, the more confused he became. Now it feels like his brain is full of chaos.
There are so many people crowded together. It would be wrong to say that there is no enlightenment, but it is true that there is some enlightenment, but there is no clue.
"Why are there six townships, how are there six cities? How about scholars, what about warriors?" Fei Qian said with a smile, "Ziyi, don't be rigid. If you look at things as a person, you will mostly misunderstand them based on your emotions, likes and dislikes.
When we look at things and people, we usually judge them based on the amount of benefit... Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, are they not fighting? Is it war? What is the difference between barbarians and Han people?"
"This..." Suddenly, Taishi Ci seemed to have a flash of inspiration in his mind, "Lord! Six villages and six villages are originally one body! Six villages can become six villages, and vice versa! The one who determines the village is not the village, and the decision is made.
Chasing the world is not chasing away! If you do it in terms of things, you will lose it to others! If you do it in terms of people, you will also lose it to things!"
"Martial men and literati are also one and the same!" Taishi Ci obviously grasped the key point of the Western Regions, and he looked very excited, "Scholarship, agriculture, industry and commerce are all priorities, and there is no order of precedence, and the same is true for war! Under the lord,
, When we are honored, we will prosper together, and when we are disgraced, we will be humiliated together! If we benefit, we will all benefit, and if we suffer, we will all suffer! Seek common ground while reserving differences, and we can become one!"
"My lord!" Taishi Ci half knelt on the ground and bowed with his hands in hand. His expression was solemn and solemn, "I must always remember Lu Fengxian's incident! Take this as a lesson! Pay attention to the overall situation! I must regard the West Sea and Chang'an as one.
Be careful! First, regard the people of the Western Sea as the country's citizens, establish the law of rural exodus, and consolidate the big and small states! Second, pay attention to the four people and never forget to fight, use the ability of civil servants to supervise their power, and use the power of military generals to monitor their power.
Handle! Thirdly, if I have the slightest bit of corruption, laziness, and selfish desires, I should bind myself under the throne of my lord and die without complaint!"
"Good! Ziyi has won it!" Fei Qian helped Taishi Ci and shook his arm vigorously, "The whole Western Region is entrusted to Ziyi!"
The two looked at each other and smiled, their smiles were like the sky behind a closed jade door, clear and pure.
