Chapter 3319 Things should be divided into two parts
The arrest of Xun Pei can be said to be a turning point for the entire Yingchuan City of Yuzhou, from a seemingly peaceful place to a state of turmoil.
But at the beginning, many people thought it was just about arresting someone?
Most ordinary people have very short memories because they are busy making a living and do not have much time to think and summarize. In other words, those who have fallen to the bottom and whose genetic chain can be broken at any time are mostly driven by instinct.
The next thing is to maintain the gene chain as much as possible, but only the children of the noble clan who are in a semi-detached state have a more urgent desire to climb back to the upper level.
That is, a poor family.
So after General Hussar started cutting down trees in Guanzhong and the big tree of Webster fell down, Shandong also began to follow Fei Qian's footsteps and also started cutting down trees.
The first ax fell on Xun himself.
Xun Yu's original idea was to get rid of his own dead branches first, so that outsiders could not comment, but in fact, Xun Yu always used himself to save others. He himself was quite a gentleman, but others
He may not be a gentleman anymore. Even if Xun Yu strikes him first, others will still complain. Anyway, in the worst case, you can "put aside the facts"...
For the middle-class people from poor families in Yuzhou, this kind of activity of cleaning up rotten branches and branches also gave them more opportunities for sunshine and rain, so they applauded and almost called him Xun Qingtian.
As a result, in the land of Yuzhou, the evaluation began to be divided. The people at the bottom were confused, the poor people applauded, and the noble people who were cut off from the upper class began to curse, saying that Xun Yu, who had thick eyebrows and big eyes, had now become
You have to have the same virtues as that bitch Qiusi...
As for how the Hussars were, Cao Cao on the battlefield at Anyi probably has the real right to evaluate them.
After all, only the life-and-death opponent on the battlefield has a greater say in evaluating the opponent.
At the foot of Anyi City.
This time Cao Cao went north. He changed his previous behavior of Cao Hong and others invading local areas, plundering resources, and recruiting civilians. He once again imposed strict military discipline and ordered "Seniors shall not invade local areas. Violators shall be subject to military law."
He also met with the Hedong gentry and gentry along the way and expressed condolences to them for the previous violations they had suffered.
this……
Is it useful?
Not to mention, it is somewhat useful. In the past, Hedong hated Cao Jun's evaluation, but now he has changed his opinion and said that Cao Cao is really a gentleman. In the past, he was a despicable villain who acted shamelessly. Now look at it, Prime Minister Cao
Once here, isn’t it a peaceful and sunny day?
Do you have to look forward in everything? Isn't it pointless to dwell on trivial matters of the past?
So Cao Cao's journey went smoothly until he reached Anyi City.
Anyi City still refused to surrender.
This made Cao Cao feel sad. He built a three-foot-high observation tower outside the city and went up to the stage to command every day...
Under Cao Cao's personal command, Anyi naturally became uneasy from then on.
Cao Cao's generals exploded... Well, Bao Zhong and Bao Hong, father and son, asked for orders and were willing to lead a death squad to attack Anyi City.
Bao Zhong is a younger brother of Bao Xin, and he once had a romantic relationship with Cao Cao.
Bao Xin was more or less Cao Cao's guide, recommended endorsers, and sent troops, money, and equipment to Cao Cao, but for some reason he died in the chaos of the Yellow Turbans. Cao Cao was so sad that he beat his chest and sighed with emotion.
There are quite a few heroes who die before they can take action, and then wait twenty years later, before classmate Lao Cao suddenly remembered Bao Xin and gave Bao Xin's son an official title...
As for Bao Zhong, who joined his classmate Lao Cao after Bao Xin died, he followed him from south to north, from east to west, and he seemed to be very loyal.
"If Anyi cannot be captured, my father and son are willing to fight to the death and not retreat!" Bao Zhong fell to the ground and became impassioned.
Cao Cao personally stepped forward to help Bao Zhong up. His beard trembled slightly, and he seemed to have compassion, and said: "How can such a loyal and brave man abandon his life so easily? He cannot be cut off."
"Prime Minister, believe me!" Bao Zhong burst into tears, "My father and my son will definitely fight to the death, and we will never turn around until we break Anyi!"
Cao Cao looked troubled again.
Farewell, Bao Zhong.
Cao Cao had no choice but to finally say: "How can we, your father and son, do everything we can? One person should be left alone so that I, the prime minister, can treat the loyal and brave bloodline favorably."
Bao Zhong was extremely moved and kowtowed loudly, "If we can't share the Prime Minister's worries, how can we, my father and my son, be treated favorably by the Prime Minister? Prime Minister, please sit down and wait for me, my father and my son, to break the city and come to us!"
Seeing that Cao Cao and Bao Zhong were such gentlemen and ministers, everyone in the audience couldn't help but be moved. They were greatly moved and immediately agreed.
…
…
On the watchtower, Cao Cao led a large group of Hedong gentry and squires. Watching Bao Zhong and his son rush towards Anyi City, he sighed softly: "If everyone in the world is as loyal and brave as Shu Yi, why should the great man worry about being unfair?"
Cao Hong watched from the side, stepped forward and said, "Please rest assured, my lord, even if Bao's attack fails, my subordinates can still capture this city!"
"I trust you!" Cao Cao said firmly.
Cao Cao glanced at Cao Hong, then moved his eyebrows slightly, turned to the other gentlemen of Hedong Township and said: "Now the Hussars are approaching... I am very worried. With this military disaster, there will be no distinction between ourselves and the enemy. If the Hussars
The riders thought you were an obstacle and massacred these poor people... Alas, why did the people suffer, how did the people deserve it!"
Cao Cao sighed.
Several gentlemen from Hedong Township looked at each other, and immediately stepped forward to prostrate themselves to the ground, sobbing loudly, "Please Prime Minister, please stop the Hussars and prevent the innocent people from suffering!"
Cao Cao stepped forward to help him again, "Alas, manpower will eventually be exhausted, and the secrets of heaven are unpredictable. All living beings work hard, and their lives are full of twists and turns..."
The squires from Hedong paid their respects again, and Cao Cao reluctantly offered to leave a green channel for them to evacuate some of their assets and manpower from this ominous place to avoid war disasters.
…
…
At the foot of Anyi City.
"Swear to destroy this city!"
Bao Zhong held a spear, raised his arms and shouted.
Although Bao Zhong was not ranked among the brave generals under Cao Cao and was not known for his bravery in the past, he has shown some unusual bravery in the present.
Perhaps Cao Cao personally supervised the battle from a high platform, or perhaps he was feeling a little aggrieved after the battle had been fought until now, so the soldiers of Cao Cao's army who attacked Anyi were more or less cooperative.
There is no sense of responsibility or urgency. These soldiers of Cao's army just knew that Cao Cao was watching them from behind. If they were beheaded for fear of fighting, their death would be in vain!
Therefore, even in the face of the defensive counterattack with wood, stone and rain of arrows from the defenders on the top of Anyi City, Cao's soldiers did not flinch.
At noon, the sun was high and the heat wave was rolling, but Cao Jun's morale was like a raging fire, burning more and more.
Under the leadership of Bao Zhong, they violently attacked the city gate of Anyi South City.
Naturally, Cao Jun's soldiers paid a heavy price for this offensive, but when they stormed the city, Cao Jun's soldiers both above and below the city let out deafening cheers!
It's a pity that the good times did not last long...
Pei Ji, who was defending the city, originally thought that Cao's army would be somewhat timid under the pressure of the approaching cavalry general, so he was slightly lax in his defense. Bao Zhong seized the opportunity to attack the city, and was immediately frightened out of his wits. However,
As the city defender, if he retreats, the city will immediately change hands!
So Pei Ji quickly led his private soldiers of the Pei family to rush forward, and started a fierce fight with Cao's soldiers who climbed onto the city wall.
Not to mention, I don’t know if it’s because the defenders were BUFFed, or because Cao Jun didn’t expect Bao Zhong to be able to board the city that day, but didn’t follow up in time, or for some other reason. Anyway, the Anyi defenders finally defeated Cao Jun.
The soldiers were driven back again.
Although this battle ended with Cao Jun's defeat, everyone seemed to see hope of breaking the city.
Although Cao Jun retreated as dusk approached, his fighting spirit remained unabated and he cheered as if he could break the city tomorrow.
…
…
Cao Cao met Bao Zhong in person and encouraged him greatly, giving him wine and a brocade robe.
Bao Zhong asked people to hold the brocade robe, and returned the greetings with smiles to other military academy generals who congratulated him along the way. Then he entered his tent and collapsed instantly like a collapsed building block.
Bao Zhong's son quickly stepped forward to help him, "Father... you, you..."
Bao Zhong was middle-aged and had not fought hard every day before. Today, he suddenly fought with high intensity and did not urinate blood, which was already considered very good. After drinking some water, Bao Zhong sighed long and loudly.
Very low, "This time, it seems that you and I are going to die here..."
Bao Zhong's son was still confused. He thought his father was really loyal and devoted his life to serve Cao Cao. So when he heard what his father said, he was stunned on the spot, his eyes widened and he was speechless for a while.
.
"Crazy boy, crazy boy!" Bao Zhong slapped his son on the back of the head, "You still haven't woken up yet!"
"Father!" His son became more and more confused.
"..." Bao Zhong was silent for a while, then kicked his son away, "Go, see if there is anyone outside the tent, and ask someone to guard you before you come back!"
His son did as he was told, but when he came back he still couldn't figure it out. He was looking at his father with his eyes crooked.
Bao Zhong took a big bite of the cooking cake. While eating, he whispered: "Look at how idiotic you are... Anyway, you just have to follow me these days..."
Sometimes children can never understand the painstaking efforts of their parents.
Bao Zhong originally wanted to explain it to his child, but looking at his child's appearance, he suddenly felt that not explaining it would be a good thing, otherwise his idiot son would ruin things by yelling everywhere and saying nothing!
Bao Zhong doesn't think Cao Cao is a good man, so obviously, if he really encounters a horse, where is the safest place? Do you really think that standing next to Cao Cao is the safest place?
Huh, if Bao Zhong were to choose, he would naturally rather face the Anyi defenders than the Hussars.
It's a pity that we can't talk about this kind of thing at all.
It's so helpless sometimes.
But Bao Zhong doesn't know clearly. What he thinks is right may not necessarily be right for his children.
Some children are always skeptical about their parents' experiences and lessons. Until they hit their heads and bleed, they will scold and blame their parents for not making it clear that there is a pitfall and why they didn't help them in time.
He forgot that he forgot his parents' instructions and broke away from his parents' pull and rushed forward desperately.
…
…
"Report!"
The Hussar scout reported, "Cao's army has been attacking Anyi for several days. The city is in danger and the double rabbit flag has been erected many times!"
Fei Qian nodded, "I understand. Let's explore again."
The scout responded and retreated.
Those with more legs generally walk faster.
For example, the six-legged scout can run back and forth very quickly.
But for two-legged infantry, if you want to be fast, you have to pay an extra price.
As for the cannon without legs...
If you want to be faster, you must first light up the front-end technology trees of transportation and materials science.
In the past few days, Xun Chen, who was beside Fei Qian, felt more and more strange about the situation. According to his understanding, the current Hussars should march forward, and then use the cavalry to outflank Cao's army on both sides, limiting Cao's army to Anyi.
In the surrounding area, the infantry then covered them up, the artillery unleashed their might, and finally Cao Jun was completely surrounded and annihilated in the Yuncheng Basin!
But Fei Qian walked very slowly, and sometimes the whole army even stopped because of the artillery transportation!
this……
You are a hussar general!
Horse!
Not the artillery general...
However, as time went by, Xun Chen gradually realized that Fei Qian's trip seemed to be to fight and train troops at the same time.
What they are training is artillery, as well as the team of related soldiers and craftsmen who support the artillery.
No, every time we walked for a while, Master Huang Dou would come to Fei Qian, muttering to himself, copying and writing, and then ran away again like crazy.
Xun Chen's guess was correct. Fei Qian wanted to use war to force the advancement of science and technology and the development of society.
If there hadn't been the battle between Jinyang and Poxia, and if everyone hadn't seen the unstoppable power of the artillery, people like running water might have come to persuade them, Hussars, real water...cough cough cough, it's so slow, can't throw it away
Dismount the artillery and go into battle lightly? The cavalry will go up first, and then the infantry will follow. Let the artillery follow slowly. Otherwise, when the artillery arrives, Cao Cao will be gone...
So much.
In fact, among the feudal dynasties of China, there were more than one opportunity to get rid of the shackles of history and transcend geographical limitations. It was like a pendulum movement. It had obviously surpassed the center line and moved in a higher direction, but was eventually stopped by the pendulum.
The thin wire was pulled back. Is it the weight of the pendulum or the thin wire?
Just like during this march, Fei Qian did not give any additional guidance or give any ideas to these craftsmen and soldiers. His purpose was to observe what these craftsmen and soldiers would do when they encountered problems.
The result surprised Fei Qian, and was also quite emotional.
Two days ago, when I was passing through a not-so-easy road...
In fact, even the main official road is not smooth at the moment. In addition, after cavalry and infantry have stepped on it first and then again, by the time the artillery troops follow up, it is often full of potholes.
Fortunately, it hasn't rained during this period, otherwise, the muddy roads would have been enough to drive the troops responsible for transporting artillery crazy.
Feiqian is currently mainly used to transport artillery and other heavy weapons, as well as grain and baggage. It is still mainly powered by human and animal power. Lever mechanical gears, etc. are only used in a small amount of time and in local areas, but even so, it still brings problems to Feiqian.
Some unexpected surprises.
For example, when craftsmen and soldiers wanted to allow artillery vehicles to pass through potholes and soft ground, in order to prevent the wheels transporting artillery from getting stuck in the mud, the craftsmen and soldiers responsible for transportation constantly inserted logs in front of the wheels, and then made the artillery transport vehicles
I always walked on logs and walked through that section of the potholed road.
but……
just this.
In the eyes of later generations of Fei Qian, isn't this the prototype of a crawler wheel?
As for Fei Qian's suggestion, Huang Dou had difficulty understanding it at first, but when Fei Qian changed his explanation, Huang Dou suddenly understood and was fascinated by it.
Yes, why are you staring at the wheel?
Why can't these methods be regarded as "crawling" and "belting" the road on the wheels? Doesn't that mean that no matter what kind of road it is, these heavy-duty vehicles can walk on flat ground?
That’s why it’s called “crawler”.
Changing his thoughts, Huang Dou entered a semi-crazy state. He was muttering these two words, either running behind to follow the artillery truck to measure and record, or letting people beat something, and then he came up with new ideas.
Came here again to discuss with Fei Qian...
In Huang Dou's initial design, there were some wheel-like shapes. For example, it looked like separate legs wearing relatively wide "shoes", which then formed the shape of a wheel. However, as it continued to deform and extend, it looked like
The new structure constructed of iron chains, logs, spokes, etc., has a shape somewhat similar to the crawler tracks of later generations, and gradually revealed its prototype.
Fei Qian didn't say too much, he just asked Huang Dou to do it and test it while paying attention to safety. It doesn't have to be a real artillery mounted on the vehicle, just a stone of similar weight can be used.
Huang Dou accepted the order and happily reached the back of the team.
Xun Chen has been watching quietly from the side these past few days, as if he has some enlightenment.
Fei Qian asked Xun Chen, "What did you see?"
"Your Majesty," Xun Chen said, "I understand a little bit..."
Fei Qian hummed, "Then tell me."
Xun Chen quickly raised his hands and said, "I believe that in the heaven and earth, all things exist side by side, each inheriting its own nature and each having its own strengths. Just like there are stars in the sky, mountains and rivers on the earth, people have emotions, and things have shapes and qualities. They should be based on each.
It is to be put to good use and each can show his or her own strengths. Therefore, it is the leader of the people and the key to officials. It serves as the order of heaven and earth and is the origin of all things."
Fei Qian nodded, but quickly shook his head, "This is too brief."
"Too brief?" Xun Chen didn't quite understand. "What's wrong with a brief introduction?"
Isn't it what officials like Xun Chen should do to summarize and summarize affairs? And it is correct to grasp the key points as much as possible and explain them well? Didn't Fei Qian also hate those officials who were confused and confused?
So why now does Fei Qian still say that his summary is "too brief"?
Fei Qian smiled and said, "In ancient times, Cangjie created characters because he knew the pain of writing and the pain of enlightenment. Only then could the ghosts in the sky cry and the mountains and rivers mourn. Then in the Spring and Autumn Period, it was difficult to carve seals and write books. Only then did Kong Zhongni sit down."
Discuss it and teach it. Nowadays, there are pens, inks and paper, wooden slips, bamboo slips, carved stone tablets, all of which can be used to record things. Nowadays, things should be divided into two parts, things should be detailed, and reasons should be important. If we use the essentials
If you use the method of theory to discuss things, it will lose its detail, and it will be difficult for future generations to do it. Therefore, if you say this, if you use the theory to discuss it, it is OK, but if you use the method to discuss it, it will be too brief..."
Xun Chen couldn't help but be stunned, and then he thought a little...
