One thing to say is that there is nothing wrong with Li You's idea. This approach is indeed a way to solve the problem. Before Sima Yi made an oath referring to Luoshui, this set of rules was followed in the Central Plains.
"To rise and destroy a country, to succeed the unparalleled world, to raise the people at ease, and the people of the world to return to their hearts," this has always been one of the highest moral standards in the Central Plains.
This is also the reason why even though Li You committed acts of extermination, major aristocratic families still tolerated it. In addition to Li You reading out the edict every time and listing his responsibilities, another very important point is that Li You has no cessation of heirs.
That is to say, if your whole family dies, you will be found an heir to inherit the incense.
This trick seems very rogue, but in these days, it is reasonable and legal!
Stepchildren have the right to inherit, but concubines and illegitimate children do not have the right to inherit. This has always been the case in this era.
Inherited the incense and the ancestral temple, then this is the family. Bloodline is very important, but bloodline is not very important. Even if it is the distinction between Huayi and Huayi, bloodline, geography, and culture go hand in hand. Finally, through the development of the times, they converge on the culture of China.
.
Otherwise, according to human molecular testing, Liu Bang's Y gene was detected in Temujin's line, and Y gene was detected in Wanyan's family in Jin State, not to mention the Y gene in Liao State, and the orthodox Ji Zhou family was really
Purely based on blood, these three are closer to orthodoxy than the Song Dynasty, which was a separatist power.
However, in fact, after the Han Dynasty defeated the Xiongnu, talking about the concept of nation is actually talking about culture. Unless the two sides are too different, blood is generally not discussed. As for geography, it has become an important support for the conflict between the north and the south.
Basically it no longer serves as an important support for the concept of nation.
Therefore, during the Three Kingdoms period, it was not a surprising thing for a stepson to inherit the family.
At the very least, if you consider the issue from the moral perspective of the Han Dynasty, Li You's suggestion is completely correct and completely in line with universal morality. The problem is that Chen Xi is somewhat afraid of Brahmins.
For Chen Xi, Bei Gui actually doesn't matter. Even if he fully accepts it, Chen Xi can even consider it if he wins and marries the princess to appease people's hearts.
After all, Beigui, who had little education, could be easily absorbed and assimilated by the behemoth Han Dynasty without any backlash.
In fact, if you look at Cao Ang's power, you will know that after Beigui was absorbed, it did not cause much turmoil. As for spies, it is inevitable, but in the general direction, the generals and people who took refuge in Beigui actually have no desire to restore the country.
The idea of even taking the initiative to get closer to the Han Dynasty.
Therefore, after the defeat of Guishuang, all the people in Beigui have to take refuge. The Han Dynasty can solve the problem by just dividing them. With the current size of the Han Dynasty, there will basically be no hidden dangers.
But Brahmins are different. Chen Xi planned to destroy Brahmins from the very beginning.
If there is a civilization in this world that can compete with the Chinese civilization, then it is probably the Brahman. Compared with things like the Brahman, Rome and Persia are not worth mentioning in terms of cultural erosion. In Chen Xi’s view, the Brahmin system is
It can basically be considered a cancer.
Despite Chen Xi's generous performance and basically no intention of targeting the major families, Chen Xi simply cannot trust the major families in this regard. When he was alive, the major families might not make peace with the Brahmins, but after he died
, all the major aristocratic families are not only brave, but also have great courage!
After all, you can rule this land once and for all, so why not give it a try?
Regardless of morality, Chen Xi's heart was as clear as a mirror as to how Xun Shuang and Sima Jun died.
Chen Xi never doubted the minds of major aristocratic families, he only worried that these people would be greedy to the limit!
So the Brahmins must die, and the top ones must die very miserably, so miserably that the major families will realize that after they do this, their thousand-year inheritance will one day be so shattered that not even the dregs will be left!
Only in this way can we warn this group of people, and only in this way can we let this group of people know what not to touch. If there is no bloody reality, it is probably not a dream to warn this group of people!
Chen Xi planned to find a reason to destroy even the Shulac family. He had to let this group of aristocratic families extinguish their sense of luck - as long as he hugged his thighs well at the last moment, he could come ashore with a clear conscience and no need to liquidate his hundreds of families. If you want to eat the blood eucalyptus created by Nian, you will die!
At most, at most, after the Shulak family is exterminated, they can find someone to inherit the surname, but they will no longer be able to continue to rule in the same way as before. The new Shulak family, except for the surname, must cut off everything in the past and become the Han family. way to survive.
This is a concession that Chen Xi can accept. As for letting this disgusting poison continue and eventually become an unavoidable page in civilization, it would be better to let Li You directly carry out the great destruction. Chen Xi is just unwilling to kill. , rather than lack of awareness.
But if we follow Li You's approach and the current rules of the Central Plains, we can't do anything.
Just like the political struggle of a big country, one person dies and the others are exiled, whether it is three thousand miles, eight thousand miles, or further, but it will not be exterminated. When it becomes more civilized, the culprits will be killed and the others will be sent to retire. , not everyone will die.
It's different in a small country. The loser will kill his whole family, and the followers will die. There are only so many positions, and if there are no idle people, they will either advance further or all die, so that in the end it will lead to complete chaos.
The Han Dynasty was undoubtedly a big country, so some rules had to be followed. Everyone knew the consequences of Sima Yi's oath pointing to Luoshui. His credibility was destroyed. Later, the issue of Sima Zhao's murder of the emperor and his morality were destroyed. , how can the Sima family, which has no faith and no virtue, rely on to rule the world?
It got to the point where the great unified dynasty needed to compete with the separatist Song Dynasty for the second-to-last place. What can be said about such a level of garbage.
Therefore, Chen Xi's consistent thinking is that the rules that should be spoken must still be spoken. Whatever I promise with the reputation of the country and the reputation of the family, I will fulfill it for you, even if this fulfillment will cause me pain, even if it is me. If you are smart and you take advantage of the loopholes, I will honor them.
"It still doesn't work. I'd rather not have peace talks. If Vesuthiva wants to go, he can go." Chen Xi thought deeply about the possible consequences of doing this, and finally decided to give up.
Anyway, the Han Dynasty did not take the initiative to do this. Vesudeva I took the initiative. At most, they were relatively passive at this time. But when they were killed later, it was at most Rome that blocked them, not the universal morality of the Han Dynasty. To block.
The former is always easier to deal with than the latter!
Chen Gong pinched his eyebrows when he heard this. He had realized a long time ago that it was strange that Chen Xi was destroying Guishang. On the one hand, he despised Guishang, but on the other hand he was very determined, determined not to make any promises, and determined not to stay. avoid any future trouble.
If he hadn't been so stubborn and chosen to accept the support of the Brahmins, how could Vesudeva I have survived until now? He would have run out of food!
After being attacked by Guan Yu in Peshawar, the Brahmins directly surrounded and suppressed Vesudev I, which is enough to show that there was a huge contradiction between the two sides.
In this case, if you promise something to the Brahmin, the Brahmin will never mind joining the Han Dynasty. Anyway, it is not the tax to whom you pay taxes. Changing your father is never a problem for the Brahmin.
After all, with the Brahmins' methods, every father who entered the country would eventually become their dog. Even the British who entered the industrial age felt that the brahmins in India were really awesome. If they were just
When it comes to collecting taxes, it's much better than what they do on their own.
You must know that these are British colonists who have no bottom line and no humanity. In the end, they are unable to exploit the local Brahmins. What a nonsense!
Chen Xi, who knew these things, was extremely determined! Some things should be destroyed or had to be destroyed. Although the Han Dynasty also had big problems, it at least had a self-correction function. Don't expect this kind of system in the Brahman system.
Something!
What Chen Xi wants is that the Han family will never be destroyed, and what he wants is that the Han cultural circle will always be at the top of the world. If someone accidentally swallows such a poisonous pill and is killed by a Brahmin, it will become a "year of bitter hatred".
He pressed gold threads every year to make wedding clothes for others."
Therefore, Chen Xi was more determined than everyone present when it came to targeting Kushan, and he didn't even give a reason. Anyway, with Chen Xi's credibility and morals over the years, and the image he has always established, no one would doubt that Chen Xi had made a mistake in a major matter.
So doubts remain doubts, but no one really asked.
Even Liu Bei didn't ask why he didn't accept some high-level Nangui Brahmans, and then let Kushan split to capture the Ganges more quickly.
As for the others, not only Zhuge Liang, but also Jia Xu and Li You are not qualified to ask. The only one who is qualified to ask had himself exiled years ago, so Chen Xi did not need to explain, he just followed the orders.
But the front-line officers and soldiers don't care about this at all. With the current social security system of the Han Dynasty, they are eager to continue fighting. Isn't it good to survive the fifth-level title?
Don't look at the fact that those immortal veterans are basically at the sixth or seventh level, even like Jiang Guang, who is directly at the eleventh level, and Wei Jun is as high as the thirteenth level, but it is really difficult to say that the fifth level and above are very difficult. Heng
In the Battle of the River, there was a great victory on the main battlefield, and less than 300 people were promoted to the ninth level or above.
Because the titles of the Han Dynasty were actually issued, they were divided into local military titles and non-native titles. The local ones were awarded titles based on their military merits, and then they were given official positions and land based on their titles. Although considering the area of the country’s elite areas, the land would be distributed according to the
Sir, Sir, there are varying degrees of compression, but because there is no delay, the actual distribution of the tenth level is 1,850 acres, and the front-line generals are still extremely satisfied.
Because this is a real deal, after you get off the battlefield, the land deed documents and other documents will be delivered to your home within a month at most.
Not to mention that this kind of treatment is from ancient times, now the real grant is 1850 acres, and according to the level, we will build you a house with a garden of more than 30,000 square meters, and you will risk your life.
Although it is quite difficult for most soldiers to obtain a fifth-level title, with the current winning rate of the Han Dynasty, there is still hope for a fifth-level title. If you work hard, you can get a 250-acre field and a 4285-square-meter house with a garden.
There is hope.
As for non-native knighthoods, take Bi Laoliu as an example. He worked as a scout in the Ganges River, caught a big fish, and gained a twelfth-level knighthood. Not only did he clear his previous accounts, he also sealed about a town in Central Asia. Of course,
In this kind of canonization, the Han Dynasty only provided initial material and equipment support, and the rest of the operations had to be done by themselves.
But for those with an adventurous spirit, it is a pleasure. In the true sense, they are the emperor of the land, and they can do whatever they want in their own territory without anyone caring about them. Of course, they have done too much evil and were expelled by the people under their command.
Then there's no way.
What's more important is that there is no such thing as downgrade in foreign titles. As long as you can hold on to it, you will always be the emperor of the country, and there is no problem of domestic titles being downgraded.
In short, soldiers these days don't care about why they fight Kushan. There are many young men who have just reached age and have no titles. They have been trained at home and are waiting to be called up to join the war. Although it is inevitable that there will be some
Casualties, but this can really win a future.
"Zichuan, at least give me a clue." Li You said slowly.
"Deal with the Brahmins." Chen Xi said calmly, without any hidden ideas. His attitude was very clear, either don't occupy the Ganges River, and since he chose to capture the Ganges River, he must get rid of the Brahmins.
Get rid of Brahman, and do all this now, God knows who you are doing it for.
"Then we can also talk to Vesutiva I." Li You half-squinted his eyes to prevent Chen Xi from seeing the cold light in his eyes.
"Zichuan, sometimes you seem to be a little too extreme. If you just get rid of the Brahmins, we can actually talk about it." Chen Gong also said, "Vesudeva I and the Brahmins are not one and the same. Although they merged after leaving,
The line has completed the so-called unity of politics and religion, but in essence they are still not a whole. In fact, because of the behavior of our Han Dynasty, Vesudeva I has been forced to recognize clearly who is his backer."
The Han Dynasty beat the Kushans very severely. Even now, even if Vesuthiva I is stupid, he still knows that the Northern Guishan is his backer. Under the absolute force of the Han Dynasty, the performance of the Brahmins and Nangui
Only suitable for logistics.
"To put it bluntly, although I don't quite understand what you were thinking, you were so unceremonious that you didn't care who the other party was or whether they wanted to surrender. You got them all together and beat them up several times.
After directly killing a large number of people, it really broke the political balance in Kushan." Fazheng also answered and explained that he personally participated in these wars.
"In the early days, the Brahmins could still be said to have relied on food, logistics, etc. to restrain Bei Gui. Now, Bei Gui is completely riding on the head of the Brahmins. Because of our strength, the Brahmins have no other choice but to pinch their noses.
Accept Beigui." Guo Jia said, covering his forehead.
In fact, this is also due to the problem of Brahmin teachings. In terms of endurance, the Brahmin system has an absolute advantage.
The beatings of the Han Dynasty left the Brahmins unable to resist. They had to choose the lesser of two evils. At this time, they could only choose the northern nobles. Only then did the people who moved to the northern nobles move to the southern nobles to rule. The Brahmin nobles basically had no reason to stop them.
It's not that they don't want to resist, it's that they don't have to resist.
If they don't accept the conditions of the Beigui, they will have no way to stop the Han Dynasty. The Han Dynasty's treatment of the Brahmans is even more cruel than the Beigui. As for the Beigui's coming, it will harm the Vaisyas, Sudras and so on. That is the problem.
? That’s not a problem.
Besides, more than a hundred years ago, when the Beigui invaded and directly attacked Huashi City, the Brahmins had already accepted the Beigui once, and in the following decades they quickly tamed these Yueshi people into their own dogs, and now the Beigui
The full migration of your country to the Indus-Ganges Basin is just a do-over for the Brahmins. With experience, it will not be worse than the situation in the lower reaches of the Ganges that was ruled by the Han Dynasty.
At least they have experience in taming the Great Yuezhi. Even if they transfer most of their interests now, in a few decades the uncultured Great Yuezhi will be assimilated by the environment and become a new Kshatriya under their Brahmin rule.
Became the main force in encircling and suppressing the Kshatriyas who resisted Brahmin rule.
Why did Bankim agree? Isn’t it just because you have entered the Brahmin system? Don’t think about jumping out. If you want to fight against the Brahmin system, you can only fight outside!
"Is it rare for you to be so arrogant that you don't even notice this kind of thing?" Guo Jia joked. In his opinion, this kind of mistake should not happen to Chen Xi.
"Well, how should I put it? In fact, it's not a matter of arrogance. I just have some deviations in my way of solving the problem. If that's the case, you can give it a try, but no matter what, I can't make any promises to Brahman. I can accept it.
The five branches of the Great Yueshi accept members of the Northern Nobles who are not members of the Great Yueshi, but I cannot accept Brahmins." Chen Xi said very seriously, and he confessed directly.
"Afraid of endless trouble?" Zhuge Liang could understand Chen Xi's thoughts.
"Well, the Hongnong Yang family is afraid of all people and is unwilling to pass on all their own scriptures to all people, while Chen Xunsima has no fear of all people and is willing to teach his own techniques to all people. From the perspective of a ruler
, Chen Xun Sima’s behavior is more correct, but ah!” Chen Xi sighed as he spoke, “Chen Xun Sima has even become separated from the people because he has no sense of awe.”
This was Chen Xi's clearest feeling when he held the annual meeting in the sixth year of Yuanfeng. At that time, Chen Xi understood that the Chen family, Xun family and Sima family would definitely have problems later, and the Yuan family and Yang family should be in trouble in a short time.
There won't be any trouble.
The follow-up was just as Chen Xi had guessed, Chen Xun Sima had a problem unexpectedly, and that time the Yuan family and the Yang family stayed at arm's length.
"Those who are good at swimming drown in the water." Chen Xi said somewhat sadly. He actually had a good relationship with Xun Shuang and Sima Jun. He was not very familiar with the Yuan Yang family, but the first three families died.
If Chen Shang hadn't stopped what happened once, Chen Qun's father would have died.
"I can't stop these people from doing those things. I can only let them see the consequences directly. After all, not everyone is so rational and remembers where their roots are." Chen Xi said calmly, "Aloof.
If you have been living for too long, you have forgotten what the foundation is, you cannot hear the voices at the bottom, and you only think about fighting for power and gain, then you are only one step away from collapse."
The behavior of the Yang family at the first imperial meeting was obviously that they had been aloof for too long. After eating grass and learning with the common people for several years, they realized that all the people were just like them, and that's why they came up with the words of Yuan Feng in the sixth year of his life.
Those words that seem to be blocking, but are actually facing challenges head-on.
On the contrary, Chen Xun and Sima Chen Xi actually have a complicated mentality.
Needless to say, there is no need to say anything about the Yuan family. Yuan Shao is a role model in bucking the trend, Yuan Shu is the leader in chivalry, and Yuan Tan is a pure Yin Worry and enlightens the saints. None of them have time to do this while they are alive.
"I'll do this." Li You said calmly.
"Well, this is just to help the family." Chen Xi said with some surprise.
"When I killed them, I was actually helping them!" Li You said calmly. Chen Xi was speechless. Although it sounded like sophistry, it really made sense.
Just like the woodpecker, which sometimes pecks directly through a tree and kills it with ruthless hands, but for the entire forest, crushing a big tree that has been filled with parasites will only be more beneficial to the forest.
"Then send an envoy. Although I think Vesuthiva I may have realized it soon. By the time our envoy passes by, that guy may have already arranged manpower to deal with this human crisis." Chen Xi looked towards him.
Zhuge Liang greeted.
"In this case, we can draw some generals from the Ganges River." Fazheng suggested, "General Zhang and General Zhao are actually qualified to become commanders, but they have never had the chance. Although this is a crisis for mankind,
It’s really an opportunity.”
That's what it said, and it also mentioned Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun and others, but in fact it specifically referred to Zhang Fei, because Zhao Yun would not go to the Yuan family unless it was absolutely necessary.
"Indeed, if there is a clear truce, it is indeed possible to dispatch generals to Northern Europe, and Huangfu Yizhen indeed suggested that we dispatch some generals and key hundred men for support." Li You understood Fazheng's intention almost instantly. Indeed,
This is an opportunity for Zhang Fei.
"The situation in Southeast Asia is now like that caused by the small world. It is impossible to go to war until the relevant secrets are found. So, can we mobilize the generals and colonels in Southeast Asia to participate?" Chen Xi said secretly, and he asked Lu Xun
The plan to succeed Zhou Yu has been destroyed by the small world, and it is impossible to practice in a short period of time. It is better to send him to Eastern Europe to practice leveling and become the commander of a large army.
"In this case, do we need to arrange a few places for Ah Man to clean up the dirty materials?" Chen Gong asked tentatively, and then Zhuge Liang glared at him.
"Ardashir hasn't been solved yet. Can Kandahar free up its hands?" Zhuge Liang asked calmly.
Chen Gong thought for a while and actually nodded, "If Vesutiva I chooses to have a truce, Ardashir will most likely immerse himself in rest and recuperation, which will be a respite for the Cao family."
"Then let's make the notification." Chen Xi glanced at Chen Gong and said nothing.
