Chapter 3183 The cold wind is like scissors
The cheers of the Jiangdong Army did not last long.
Just like joy leads to sorrow, disaster comes in a blink of an eye...
For Jiangdong, Zhu Zhi is very good in many aspects. Whether it is water war or land war, he can not only lead troops in military affairs, but also be good at people's livelihood and government affairs. He can be regarded as a hexagonal talent, and basically has no big shortcomings.
But the problem is that as a man born and raised in the Han Dynasty, Zhu Zhi also tried his best to understand the various tactics created by Feiqian of Guanzhong, after all, he was limited by the Han Dynasty's vision, habits, and long-term thinking, which made Zhu Zhi still use the old combat habits of the Han Dynasty in dealing with Zhuge Liang's strategies and the decision to attack Yu Fu.
Zhu Zhi had seen Gan Ning use grenades, but he did not have much strong concepts about grenades, which made Zhu Zhi not use the protection of grenades and heaters as the focus of defense when attacking Yufu.
Of course, even if Zhou Yu came, he might not be able to understand the use of gunpowder immediately. It might just be faster than Zhu Zhi's awakening and faster reactions.
Zhu Zhi couldn't understand what kind of evolution would be between gunpowder and tinea oil, and what would happen if it was mixed together.
These things are beyond Zhu Zhi's understanding.
Understanding and applying are actually very important.
There are some later theories that say that the four great inventions of China seem to be less important than some foreign inventions, but in fact they are trapped in a trap that is deliberately packaged or framed by some people.
In fact, the achievements of ancient China in agriculture, iron and copper metallurgy, coal and petroleum mining, as well as machinery, medicine, astronomy, mathematics, porcelain, silk, winemaking, etc., were far surpassed the so-called four great inventions. These countless inventions and discoveries that were not among the "Four Greats" greatly promoted the development of productivity in ancient China and improved the social living standards of China. It can be said that many of these inventions are as important as the so-called "Four Greats" inventions, and some are even more important than the "Four Greats".
Why aren’t it the “five majors” or “six majors”, but the “four majors”?
This is like the "Four Ancient Civilizations"...
In fact, it has a specific historical significance in a specific period, and it is not just a ranking or a word.
Therefore, Huaxia pays more attention to "use", because the "use" methods are different and the choices are different, so different results will inevitably result.
Now Jiangdong's "use" in equipment is obviously a big difference.
They can use boats and boats, and are good at bows and arrows, but are there any other equipment...
After Zhu Zhi's building ship hit the floating bridge but was hooked by the iron chain and nails on the floating bridge, the counterattack of the Sichuan and Shu army began.
『Prepare! Shoot!』
At both ends of the floating bridge, Sichuan and Shu soldiers shot out crossbow arrows connected with gunpowder grenades.
Some pirates also rushed out from the water village upstream, carrying tincture oil, like a piranha smelling blood.
On ships traveling on the water surface, grenades will inevitably be splashed by water, resulting in squints. However, on land or at both ends of the pontoon bridge on semi-land, these squints can be basically exempted.
The crossbow arrow roared and stuck on the Jiangdong ship crowded on the floating bridge.
"boom!"
『Boom boom!』
Sudden explosions came out.
"Kill up! Don't let the thieves in Jiangdong run away!"
Gan Ning stood at the bow of the boat, raising his arms and shouting.
『Bang!』
『Crack…』
The Sichuan and Shu army's sign hit the side of the Jiangdong Army's dome-armored ship.
The hard metal hit the corner, knocking a huge crack on the belly of the side of the building.
Countless hook claws were thrown onto the Jiangdong Dome Armored Boat ship, making these big guys look like beasts trapped in the net, unable to move forward, and unable to retreat.
The shouts of killing sounded like thunder.
The dome-armored ship was stuck on the iron chain of the pontoon bridge and could not move.
The soldiers from Jiangdong were on the dome-armored ship, like ants on a hot pan.
The big yellow crossbow with grenade yelled, and thrust on the deck with a loud voice!
"Kick off!" A soldier from Jiangdong screamed.
But it's too late.
With a "boom", iron pieces splashed everywhere, and a scream broke out.
Then there was a tinsel tank splashing on the Jiangdong warship, which reminded the soldiers of Jiangdong that Sichuan and Sichuan were not without tinsel oil, but that they had never been useful!
Rockets cross the sky.
Falling down, turning into a sea of ​​fire.
The dome-armored battleship turned into ashes...
The flames suddenly rose, as if they wrapped the entire area of ​​the floating bridge in the sea of ​​fire.
Screams continued to sound, just like the afterglow and echo of the previous cheers.
There was silence above the Jiangdong Tower boat behind.
Zhu Zhi closed his eyes and then opened them again the next moment.
The dazzling fire made Zhu Zhi understand that this was not in a dream, but it was better than a nightmare.
Everything in front of him made Zhu Zhi's heart tremble, as if something was changing quietly.
Let the flag sway.
Zhu Zhi gritted his teeth and was in great pain. "Retreat! Scream the gold and withdraw the troops!"
If he had known that Sichuan and Shu would use tincture oil, he would have only invested two ships, no, at most he would have only one dome-armored tower ship!
Although there are indeed many boats in Jiangdong, they lost five dome-armored tower ships in one go, and they also took most of the Jiangdong soldiers on the tower ships, and almost cut a large piece of meat on Zhu Zhi...
When the Jiangdong Army heard that the Jin army was resigning, it was replaced by the Sichuan and Sichuan soldiers cheering.
There were also some Sichuan and Shu soldiers yelling at the Jiangdong soldiers who had left the battlefield, some immortals Banban and other things. However, the howling wind on the river blew the roar far away, and it was so hard that it was hard to hear it.
But the meaning is still conveyed...
Zhuge Liang suddenly said: "Jiangdong lost."
Faping was stunned, this was not obvious...
Immediately Faping understood that Zhuge Liang might not just talk about the war in front of him.
But why is Zhuge Liang so sure?
...
...
In Chengdu and in the government office, I am also very busy today.
The running clerk held the layers of writing, sweating, gasping, and gritting his teeth.
The normal process is to wait for the servants to carry them in, but there are too many things at the moment. If you really have to wait for the process, your writing will be ranked behind. Therefore, the minor officials in the county towns around Chengdu have to stare at the writing and hold the writing in person, waiting for Xu Shu to deal with it.
In fact, Xu Shu may not necessarily have to approve the matters reported by the surrounding county towns, but the surrounding county town lords feel that it seems that if they don’t do this, they cannot say that they are closely united... Cough cough cough...
In the officialdom, taking sides is very important.
Taking a side is also an attitude.
"What has the man who fanned the flames done recently?"
Xu Shu asked while looking at the writing.
Fa Zheng, who was standing aside, said in a deep voice: "If you use the wind and the moon to make you happy, you will be in panic."
Xu Shu picked up the pen and annotated a few words at the end of the writing, "Wu Congshi's injury has not yet healed?"
Fa Zheng smiled, "Not yet."
Xu Shu also laughed, took another new text from the pile of textbooks, spread it out, and said, "This is not enough... I've been neglecting business... I haven't seen our writing like this, can't I see it?"
Fa Zheng then said: "Let the horse follow Cao..."
Xu Shu shook his head slightly.
Fa Zheng was stunned for a moment, then his eyes moved, "Then let Captain Lei..."
Xu Shu nodded.
Fa Zheng understood, bowed his hands and walked out.
The Han Dynasty originally had very strict control over local officials. They took office in other places and stayed in Beijing, etc., all of which were controlled by local feudal decentralization.
This kind of local decentralization has gone in a different direction from the Western feudal system.
Under the Western feudal system, there were many autonomous people, and in the middle and late Western Han Dynasty, until the Eastern Han Dynasty, they all moved towards stricter control. After several disputes and even rebellious confrontations, weakening the authority of local officials has become an unchangeable trend.
Whatever Xu Shu wants to do, he will subconsciously let Fa Zheng do it. This is not to say that Xu Shu himself is lazy, but rather reflects some separation of decision-making and execution. Of course, if Xu Shu's behavior is not properly controlled, it will also cause other problems.
Therefore, overall, the political system of the Han Dynasty still relies more on the "human" factor.
Xu Shu stopped writing and thought about the recent incident again.
He did not want to eliminate all the gentry and gentry in Sichuan and Shu, but this was consistent with the strategy of the General of the Cavalry, and it was also similar to the policy in the early Han Dynasty.
In the political situation in the early Han Dynasty, inheriting the Qin system was one aspect, and assimilation policy was equally important.
Liu Bang and Xiao He were able to follow Qin's footsteps and build the imperial career again, and avoid repeating the mistakes of the destruction of Qin. One of the reasons was that they learned the lessons of the Qin Dynasty and did not rush to neat customs and unify culture in a short period of time. Instead, after completing the military conquest and political unification of the country, they temporarily stopped and accepted and tolerated the situation of coexistence of different customs. They implemented different policies for different regions. They set up counties and counties in western areas such as Qin, Han, and Wei, and "governed by Han laws", while in eastern areas such as Zhao, Yan, Qi, and Chu, they established kingdoms, allowing princes and kings to formulate and promulgate their own policies and laws within a certain range, and relying on their own scholars to "follow customs" to govern to a certain extent.
It is both "following the king" and "following the common people".
This was the case when Fei Qian first entered Sichuan.
However, "following the king" and "following the common people" are contradictory in themselves, and ultimately they must be unified to "following the king".
However, when Fei sneaked into Sichuan and Shu, although he suppressed various counties and counties in military terms, it was still chaotic in culture and personnel, especially when the traditional influence of the local gentry and gentry in Sichuan was still very large. If the law was forcibly implemented, there would inevitably be a risk of arousing large-scale resistance.
Under such circumstances, Fei Qian asked Xu Shu to slow down his plan.
Xu Shu did do this.
Now, it is basically time to "see the picture".
Xu Shu looked at the piles of writings, and suddenly shook his head and laughed, "Didn't these people expect it... No, they thought it, but they couldn't..."
...
...
Wu Yi claimed to be injured and was recuperating at home.
Wu's money is one of the best among Sichuan and Sichuan.
Just like Wu Yi’s other courtyard is now where Wu Yi is “retiring”. Not to mention the others, there are three gardens alone.
In the mansion, of course, it is impossible that Wu Yi alone or the family are cleaning it, but there are a lot of slaves.
The problem of slaves in Sichuan and Shu is even more serious than in Guanzhong.
Although the Han Dynasty was an agricultural society with self-cultivated farmers as the main body, there were also a large number of slaves in the society. These slaves had a completely different identity from free people. Until the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the existence of such slaves was still very common.
Slaves are not only slaves themselves, but their children are also slaves. Slave children were called "slaves give birth to children" in the Han Dynasty. For example, Wei Qing, the general of the Western Han Dynasty, gave birth to children, and his mother Wei Wu was a slave. Therefore, Wei Qing was always a slave and shepherd a sheep until Wei Qing's sister was fortunate to Emperor Wu.
Under slaves, there is naturally an economic system in the form of slaves.
Just like in the Wu family, almost all the labor is done by slaves.
To some extent, these slaves are not considered "human".
But under the new policy of cavalry, slaves must be counted as humans.
This is not a simple attitude or a slogan, but it actually affects many aspects. The most critical issue is that it involves "mental arithmetic".
This is another new measure that seems to be like the collapse of the sky and the earth after "Shinta Masato".
Many people in the Han Dynasty, regardless of the special identities of prisoners and war criminals, just talking about ordinary self-cultivating farmers, in the long Han Dynasty, there were also many self-cultivating farmers who "voluntarily" sold themselves as slaves...
It is either sold in this prefecture or in that prefecture.
Local gentry and gentry use no means or high or low prices to obtain the labor value of these "slaves" and attempt to possess them for a long time.
The rich have a lot of means to evade or transfer taxes.
The most common one is to hide the fields and households.
According to the laws of the Han Dynasty, all farming fields had to be paid taxes, and the national tax was actually very low. However, local gentry even had to intercept these taxes, that is, although local gentry responsible for collecting rent and drafts had already collected them from farmers, they intercepted them privately to encroach on national taxes.
This involves the Han Dynasty's moves similar to the "tax-inclusive system".
The prefects in the Han Dynasty did not allow local offices, so they came from other places. The prefects who served at the same time were of course proficient in scriptures, but not everyone was good at arithmetic. In order to maintain their official hats, these prefects often gave the authority to collect taxes to local gentry. Local gentry only needed to pay the tax amount required by the prefect, and the others were remuneration for local gentry, which naturally led to the hidden land.
It is even easier to hide a household. After all, it is sold to local gentry. Even if the account that was originally an ordinary citizen is aborted. With a red pen, the "household tax" related to this household will naturally not have to be paid.
In addition, there are fraud, sick and disabled people, false reporting of the elderly and young people, etc. Anyway, there are only unexpected things, but no one can do it.
But once these slaves also become registered populations, this means that the original "slave owner" needs to pay more taxes...
In Guanzhong, because most of the "slaves" are counted on Fei Qian. So at the beginning, Fei Qian said that he would give these "slaves" wages so that these "slaves" could pay their own oral calculations. Some people laughed at Fei Qian for being a scattered coins, while others thought that Fei Qian was a waste of money, but after all, it was Fei Qian's own business and others could not say anything.
Of course, what Fei Qian considered was not simply "mental arithmetic", but the new hierarchy of the Han Dynasty, replacing the original decadent and chaotic civil servant system, allowing more people to participate in the Dahan Online's experience and monster-brushing activities...
In Guanzhong, in Sichuan and Shu, some smart gentry and gentry had already realized these problems. They tried to transform themselves from the traditional way of encroaching on land and population to transform into a new business model with Fei Qian. However, there are still many people who have not been able to adapt to new changes, or do not want any new changes.
In this process of change, or in other words, repetition and pain are naturally inevitable.
Wu Yi also realized that what Fei Qian needed was not the kind of local gentry who stared at the land and population, but he obviously had no way to go on the transformation from the manor to the mine owner like the Sima family. He needed motivation. Even Wu Yi was not the kind of person who was full of super decisiveness and super high execution ability, so he was stimulated by the Wu Ban's affairs, and then took a big step forward, and began to hesitate again and pretended to be injured.
This kind of anxiety about gains and losses at any time and anywhere has been bothering Wu Yi in the past few days until Lei Tong came to visit him.
Lei Tong had no worries at all and smashed the door with a bang.
For Lei Tong, Mu Qiang is his only standard.
As long as the master is strong, he will kneel down and lick anywhere, but if he finds his master weak...
Now Fei Qian is strong enough, and Xu Shu is also smart enough, so Lei Tong is naturally so obedient that his tail can shake like a helicopter.
"Wu is engaged. No matter whether your injury is healed or not, you have to work now."
Lei Tong said straight to the point and smiled.
Wu Yi pondered silently. He knew what he should do, but his weakness broke out again for a moment. Perhaps he felt that Lei Tong's identity was still lower. If Fa Zheng came to the door and asked him to take action, maybe it would be better?
Lei Tong smiled and stared at Wu Yi's home appliances. He stroked the fox fur hood on the handrail where Yi sat, and praised him: "Wu Shi really knows how to enjoy it... This pattern is so beautiful! When the weather is cold, I won't be so cold that my hands are trembling... I can still take it off in summer, it's really...
『…』 Wu Yi waved his hand helplessly, "Come here, follow this one and prepare a set for Captain Lei..."
"Yo! How can you be so embarrassed?" Lei Tong pretended to shirk a moment, and then immediately thanked him, "Then I will thank Wu for his kindness! Thank you, thank you!"
Normally, if Lei Tong takes things and gets the benefits, he should get up and say goodbye. Then, even if Wu Yi spends money to delay for a few days, Lei Tong is not an ordinary person.
Lei Tong stared at Wu Yi's copper stove for heating in the living room again.
On the surface, Lei Tong seems to be stupid, but in fact, Lei Tong knows in his heart that he and Wu Yi are not the same type of people, and it is impossible to go together. Being able to enter the house this time does not mean that he can still come in so easily next time when he comes, so it is beneficial, why should you let it go easily?
Besides, the copper stove in Wu Yi’s home is indeed very beautiful. This utensil designed specifically for heating in wealthy families in the cold winter is indeed different from the ordinary copper stove brazier. It is not only in pattern carving, but also specially designed to place sandalwood or other spices...
"Wow, this copper stove is really exquisitely designed!" Lei Tong was shocked, "There is also a platter for incense, which can be added at any time... Oh, it's really... Uh? Wu, what are you doing?"
Wu Yi had already stood up and walked to the door of the hall, "Let's go! If I don't leave, I'm worried that this house will be taken by Captain Lei..."
Chapter completed!
