Chapter 3193 The dealings between officials are chaotic
Chapter 3192 The interactions between officials are chaotic
Among the Three Kingdoms, Mr. Luo's wonderful description may have made most people's eyes fixed on the heroes who flashed in it, but in fact, no matter any dynasty or any country, the majority of people who built it are still
of ordinary people.
Ordinary people are the main body of the country.
But it is a pity that in the feudal dynasty, when ordinary people are required to work hard, they can speak more pleasantly than they sing. If it is more difficult, they can call them father, countryman, uncle and uncle.
, without any hesitation, but as long as life is a little better and the situation is not so bad, he will immediately change his name to son-in-law and lower his seniority to become a subject.
Later, when the feudal dynasty had been at peace for a long time, when it began to decline from prosperity to decline, the names for ordinary people would often become untouchables, refugees, unruly people, criminals...
Just like Cui Yan's title for the people of Jizhou, it is also flexible and can be changed at any time according to needs.
When Jizhou was stable before, the people of Jizhou were naturally low-income people. No matter how many people died, Cui Yan wouldn't even raise an eyebrow, but it's different now...
"How could you blame the elders of Jizhou!" Cui Yan said impassionedly and with a sonorous and powerful tone. "My people have been in so many hardships in this world! From the past to the present, the sufferings of the people have been innumerable. Perhaps due to droughts and floods, the fields cannot be cultivated, and the goods are used to pay taxes."
If the harvest is too heavy, the people will not be able to live. The corvee is numerous and the labor is heavy, so the people will suffer!"
"Looking at the farmers, they are sweating profusely, working at sunrise and resting at sundown, as if they are afraid that they will not be able to provide for themselves at the end of the year. Even women and children are also working on weaving, and bandits are slacking off day and night. However, the officials are like wolves and tigers, and the people
Who can tell us about suffering? Taxes are heavy and miscellaneous, and the people's livelihood is almost exhausted. As a result, the towns and villages are filled with sorrow and grievances."
"Hey! The suffering of the people is so great now! The foundation of the country is really the people. If the people are in poverty, the country will not be a country. Therefore, taxes should be reduced and the people should be treated leniently, so that the people can breathe, live and work in peace and contentment, and the common people can live in peace.
It’s coming soon!」
Cui Yan shouted loudly, rolled up his sleeves and asked the sky, which immediately aroused the echo of the nobles.
"What Cui Langjun said is true!"
"The conscience of heaven and earth!"
"Inspiring and thought-provoking!"
"Who in the family understands..."
Um?
Something got mixed in?
Forget it, this is not the point. The point is, does Cui Yan really have such a deep understanding of the suffering of the people as he said?
Apparently not.
This is just like those internet celebrities in later generations who are trying to earn traffic. They know what the people like to watch and listen to, so they just act and talk like this, but if they really want them to do anything practical, then they can’t stop doing it.
possible.
It is impossible for Cui Yan to do anything for the people of Jizhou...
It can be seen from his "complaint" that although he shouted loudly, he actually did not provide any specific project suggestions. He only had empty slogans and "reduce taxes" that people never tired of hearing.
Cui Yan shouted slogans in the club, then looked at each other with the other children of the Jizhou gentry to make sure they were one of his own, and then returned home leisurely.
It was impossible for him to oppose Cao Cao and the Han in front of everyone, and his ultimate goal was not for the people of Jizhou, but to gain more political capital.
As an important representative of the Jizhou gentry, what problems does he have in advocating for the people of Jizhou?
This principle holds true even if it reaches heaven.
When he returned home, all the compassion on Cui Yan's face disappeared, leaving only the calculation hidden in the darkness.
"Brother..." Cui Lin stepped forward and bowed his hands in greeting.
Cui Yan nodded and motioned for Cui Lin to sit down.
Cao's army was tight on the front line, and naturally it was also tight on the rear line.
Chinese traditions cannot be lost!
For most of the gentry children in Shandong, the country is not important, family is the core, even though there are many impassioned Yanzhao warriors...
Uh, the land of Yanzhao...
Forget it, there are some gentry children who will die without hesitation in the face of national calamity, but there are also many more gentry children who will prostrate themselves at the feet of new rulers from generation to generation, no matter where this ruler comes from.
"Le... a big defeat!"
Cui Yan's voice was extremely low. If he hadn't been closer, Cui Lin could hardly hear what Cui Yan was saying.
Cui Lin was stunned for a moment. It seemed that there had been some news about this matter for a long time. Why would Cui Yan say it so seriously?
"Zhao Boran voted..."
Sure enough, Cui Yan came out with the second, more shocking news.
Hearing this, Cui Lin almost jumped up, "What?!"
Cui Yan frowned deeply.
Cui Lin understood, and quickly tried his best to calm his breathing, and then sat up again.
The two were silent for a while.
On the branches outside the window, some new buds were trembling in the cold wind.
Jizhou has been experiencing a cold spring these days, with freezing rain and flying snow making it seem like Jizhou has returned to winter overnight. Not only the trees outside the window feel the cold weather, but Cui Yan also feels cold in her heart.
"Is this...serious?" Cui Lin asked with some difficulty.
Cui Yan glanced at Cui Lin and didn't answer. Isn't this nonsense? Would you joke about this kind of thing casually?
After Cui Lin asked, he also reacted and quickly said: "Such a big thing...is this something you deliberately concealed?"
Cui Yan nodded slowly.
The four great celebrities in Yingchuan!
Now I cast two!
This shows what?!
And why does Mr. Cao still want to hide it?
"For such matters, we must come up with regulations..." Cui Lin whispered, "Before... Cao also deliberately concealed it. Could it be that he wants to repeat the same trick?"
Cui Yan smiled slightly, and there seemed to be some coldness in the smile, "I heard that Xiandi and those people in Yingchuan... are on good terms?"
"Huh? What do you mean, brother?" Cui Lin partly understood, but also partly didn't understand.
Cui Yan smiled and nodded.
Cui Lin was slightly startled, then suddenly realized.
Seeing that Cui Lin had guessed what he meant, Cui Yan nodded, and then added, "Remember, don't let anyone know that it came from you..."
Cui Lin raised his hand and answered, "Don't worry, brother, I will naturally find some suitable people..."
…
…
If we say that the Cao family was most glorious, it was not the time when Cao's marquises were in the early years, but the time when Cao Cao had just defeated Yuan Shao.
Yuan Shao, the model of the Han Dynasty, the fourth generation and the three princes, a proper "prince and general".
But Cao Cao actually succeeded in counterattacking back then!
This kind of counterattack drama has naturally been something that most people like to see since ancient times.
Cao Cao was close to the grassroots people at that time. At least he represented 300,000 Qingzhou soldiers at that time.
However, after Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shao, Cao Cao gradually lost his original position. He was half active and half passive. He began to deviate from the original direction of representing the Qingzhou soldiers and tried to follow the same path as Yuan Shao.
balance.
Liu Xiu also attempted to balance the situation back then, but it could not be said to be successful in the end, but at least it lasted for a hundred or two hundred years.
But Yuan Shaoguang was just superficial and didn't have Liu Xiu's ability and courage, so he couldn't balance it. When there were many difficulties in the early stage, everyone could still unite to face the difficulties together. But when there was a slight sign of relaxation, their respective plans became chaotic.
Therefore, there is a saying that heroes go against the wind and bears go against the wind, but in fact it is still a matter of division of interests.
The old system of the Han Dynasty has lost its balance. It is undoubtedly extremely difficult to find a new balance point within the old framework.
This is like a clean mobile operating system. It doesn't use much memory at first, but as more and more ads are built into the app, every app wants to take up more space, make it longer, and harder to delete.
, so that their own advertising can generate more profits, so although the total amount of memory is increasing, it is actually more stuck, let alone 12g. Doubling it again is not enough for these apps to waste.
As for Lao Cao, he also wants to add new advertisements to the operating system...
People only have so little time. After seeing one company’s advertisements, of course they don’t have time to look at another one. Therefore, the essential conflicts between these apps can never be reconciled.
Lao Cao refuses to admit that his improvement in the operating system has failed. Perhaps he feels that he should be the lucky one who can steal some memory space from other apps.
When capital invades people's hearts, people's hearts are already out of balance and will never recover.
In the battle to occupy memory space, no one is willing to give in. Even if they occupy it themselves, it will be of no use. But if you don’t occupy it, you will not occupy it. You would rather eat more and occupy more than leave a bite for others, but in reality
Only by returning the memory to apps that can actually do things can the maximum value of the mobile phone be brought out...
Until the phone gradually freezes.
I want to trick people into spending money again, but suddenly I find that people can’t afford it anymore. What should I do?
All apps quickly increased their intrusion methods and intensity, and pointed the finger at Cao Cao's operating system, saying that the culprit of the advertisement was Lao Cao.
Jizhou has now fallen into a lag state. The operating system issues instructions that require more memory, but the following apps simply ignore it, let alone make them spit it out.
Cao Cao's front line was tight, so he naturally asked the rear to transport grain and grass to supplement it.
However……
In the grain storage camp in Jizhou, the steward hurried out to meet Cao Ying, "Oh my, I didn't know that the patrol envoy was coming, but I was disappointed and greeted him from afar. Hahaha, I have seen the patrol envoy..."
The steward is a member of the Ren family, who is responsible for the transportation of grain and grass here.
Cao Ying is a descendant of a side branch of the Cao family. Now that he has arrived in Yecheng, he has been favored by Cao Pi and chosen as an inspection envoy. He has leapt over the dragon gate and is no longer bullied by other Cao family members. He is less weak than before and more
Some wild boars are as fierce as cabbages.
Any steward should be polite and bow down.
"No need to be polite."
Cao Ying said this, but did not take any action. He just threw the gold medal in his sleeve to Manager Ren for verification.
Steward Ren quickly took it and looked down, and saw a tiger-shaped pattern engraved on the gold medal, with the word "inspection" engraved below, and Cao Ying's name and appearance on the back to prevent anyone from imitating it.
After the verification was correct, Steward Ren hurriedly handed back the gold medal.
Cao Ying glanced at it, but did not directly reach out to take it. Instead, he used his sleeve to cushion it, and then wiped it softly twice before taking it back.
Steward Ren looked at it, his eyes twitching slightly, but he didn't say anything.
After entering the camp, I first checked the storage conditions of the grain and grass warehouses. There was no problem.
This place is close to Yecheng, mainly to ensure the food supply of Cao's army in Yecheng and around Yecheng. Cao Ying checked it and wanted to leave, but was stopped by Manager Ren. No matter what, he had to treat him to a meal.
.
Although almost everyone thinks that Cao Ying was attracted by Cao Pi because of his good looks, and that he belongs to the group of jesters, no one would deliberately offend Cao Ying, or even go out of his way to sell it.
good……
Nowadays, the fact of food shortage is gradually revealed. Not only is Cao's army short of food on the front line, but there is also not much food and grass in the rear. Steward Ren stared at the food and grass in his camp. On the one hand, he felt like he was sleeping on a golden mountain. On the other hand, he felt that he was sleeping on a golden mountain.
Of course, I also feel uneasy.
This golden mountain is not only hot to touch, but also heart-burning!
Cao Ying didn't want to eat at first, but steward Ren brought out a whole set of brand new bowls, chopsticks and cutlery specially for Cao Ying. Such hospitality was hard to refuse.
During the banquet, Guan Ren toasted Cao Ying first, and then said tentatively: "A few days ago, it was said that the Lord divided his troops and captured Hedong?"
Cao Ying nodded slightly arrogantly.
"Ah! It's true! Congratulations!" Steward Ren raised his glass, "Congratulations to the lord! Congratulations to the great man!"
Now Cao Ying could no longer remain aloof and arrogant, so he also raised his wine glass to congratulate Cao Cao.
After putting down the wine glass, Steward Ren let out a long sigh, "The inspector is well-informed. I just wanted to ask for advice. Now my lord is marching to Hedong... Is this war almost over? My child is here."
In the frontline army, we don’t know when we will be able to return to the army and make a triumphant return..."
"Huh... It seems that they are still confronting the Hedong defenders." Cao Ying moved his eyebrows slightly, feeling more or less proud of being well-informed, "Even if there are changes in the battle on the front line, it is not something you and I can predict...
…』
Manager Ren nodded and said: "What the inspection said is true. Xiao... By the way, I heard rumors last time that the Hussars and bandits might cross Taihang and attack Jizhou?"
"Hahaha..." Cao Ying laughed, "It's fine if others say these things. Since you are in charge of storing grain, you should also know the difficulty of transporting grain. Even if you take the big river to Tongguan, the mountains are high and the water is far away.
...If the Hussars and bandits want to cross the mountains and attack Jizhou, how will the food and supplies needed for this army come from?"
"What if a small army of thieves sneak up?"
"The sentry horses can certainly be explored." Cao Ying said, "What's more, the only strength of the hussar is the fine cavalry. If they abandon their strong points and take the shortcomings, and want to fight with the lord's elite soldiers in the wild, wouldn't they be seeking death?"
Manager Ren took a long breath and said, "So, the bandit army will definitely not appear in Jizhou?"
"That's right..." Cao Ying said firmly.
This is not only the thought of Cao Ying alone, but also the thought of most of the Cao family's Xiahou family's children in Yecheng, and the Jizhou gentry's children. They do not think that the Hussar troops will be surrounded and pressed by Cao Cao's heavy troops.
He also took great risks to cross mountains and ridges to reach Jizhou.
…
…
Wei Yan stood in the mountain, looked up, then waved his arms and shouted: "Let's go!"
There were no drums, no trumpets, no impassioned words.
Orders were passed back one after another, and more than a thousand mountain soldiers from Wei Yan meandered forward along the mountain road.
The mountain road was difficult and bumpy, but Wei Yan always walked at the front of the queue.
In some rugged and difficult sections of road, Wei Yan, like ordinary soldiers, tied a rope around his waist and tied it to the rock, climbing with difficulty...
Climbing over Taihang in such weather is naturally miserable.
But in Wei Yan's opinion, this weather is a God-given opportunity.
No one would have thought that in such harsh and cold weather, Cao's soldiers would definitely relax, and there was no way anyone would cross Taihang to Jizhou.
After marching for a long time, in the afternoon, we found a more suitable place to camp and rest.
Wei Yan wiped the sweat from his head, looked around, and ordered: "Set up camp here."
Immediately, military orders were issued, and each detachment began to search for a suitable location.
There was not enough land in the mountains to set up a large camp, so Wei Yan and others formed a scattered camp in groups.
"Old Ma Tou!" Wei Yan greeted, "Take the people around for a while!"
The old horse raised his arm and waved it twice to show that he understood. The meaning of turning around was to detect the surrounding situation on the one hand, and to see if there was any prey on the other hand.
Historically, in order to strengthen its military strength, and on the other hand, to reduce the power of the barbarians in the south, the Shu Han formed a mountain army. Most of its members came from the ethnic minority areas in the south of the Shu Han. It was established by Liu Bei
, and was further developed and strengthened with the assistance of Zhuge Liang. Historically, this unit could quickly cross rugged mountains and dense forests, allowing them to take advantage of the battle against Wei and be good at using it.
The terrain and weather change, and you can perform a variety of tactics similar to special forces such as raids, guerrillas, and detours.
Although there is a lack of records among the Shu and Han Dynasties for some reason, such an army did exist and put a lot of pressure on the Wei State, as can be seen from its name...
There is no way to be a flying army.
This shows the advantages and disadvantages of climbing mountains and ridges, just like flying in the mountains.
Historically, Liu Bei was not a flying army. He only relied on the brave physique of the Southern Barbarians. His equipment was probably ordinary iron armor. It was impossible to have exquisite armor or heavy armor, otherwise he would not be able to fight when the flying army was cut off in the end.
So miserable.
As for the mountain soldiers currently led by Wei Yan, although the number of Southern Barbarians is not as large as in history, and perhaps not as physically brutal as those barbarians who live in the mountains and forests all day long, in terms of weapons and equipment, they are naturally better than those in history.
The Wudang flying army on the ground needs to be more sophisticated.
Technology is always a weapon for mankind to defeat nature.
Wei Yan liked to take the wrong approach, and he also put a lot of effort into this mountain soldier.
