Guo Jian and Xun You, this is the help Li Shushi provided to Huang Zhong, just like when he was the prefect of a county, Liu Hong, the emperor at that time, sent Lu Zhi to Lishi...
The only difference is that compared to Lu Zhi, who was secretly responsible for monitoring him, neither Guo Jian nor Xun You would have such a problem. On the contrary, Li Shushi also hopes that Huang Zhong can use him to control the world.
The connections in the circle softened Xun You's political stance and attitude, allowing him to better integrate into the Bingzhou Army.
As for Huang Zhong's own loyalty, it is absolutely reliable no matter what.
Choosing Huang Zhong as the new Shuozhou pastor Li Shushi also had his own considerations.
As Huang Zhong said before, if Li Shushi just wants to follow Lu Zhi's policies, then he can choose Zhong Yao as his successor, even if this successor may indeed be as good as Li Shushi said
Sometimes it becomes a slightly unsettling factor, but overall it doesn't really cause a big mess.
Even with his presence, Shuozhou, as the rear area of Bingzhou, would provide additional help to Li Shushi. Just like in another time and space, as the top decision-maker in the Sanfu area, he not only stabilized Cao Cao's flanks, but also
It provided a lot of help for the Cao Cao Group to win the main battlefield of the Battle of Guandu. At the same time, there were many highlights in the subsequent Battle of Hebei.
In fact, when Cheng Yu heard about this, the first candidate he recommended was Zhong Yao. After all, whether it was political performance, background, or skills, even though Zhong Yao didn't know anything about the battlefield, he didn't know anything about it. As long as he was equipped with a
With good generals, Zhong Yao can perfectly cooperate with them to achieve the effect of 1+1》2.
However, when Li Shushi received the information from Hanoi, he finally rejected Cheng Yu's proposal.
There was no other reason. Li Shushi felt that he might have been too deeply affected by the impression of the history of another dimension before. His inherent impression of Huang Zhong was that of a warrior who was easily taken care of by Zhuge Liang and who was absolutely dissatisfied with his old age. Even if he had known Huang Zhong before,
He was born in a large Nanyang family and did not lack some communicative skills, so he entrusted the sensitive and complicated place of Hanoi to him. In fact, it was more because his force could ensure that the rebels could be suppressed at any time in the rear, just like Zhang Xiu in
That's what Hedong did.
But what Li Shushi didn't expect was that in the face of Li Shushi's "trust", Huang Zhong handed him a surprising answer sheet.
Although it is said that many of them have the support of the Sima, Shan, Yang, Zhang, Chang and other families, Huang Zhong was able to sort out the relationship between the powerful families in Hanoi in less than a year.
Not only did the autumn harvest and spring sowing be successfully completed, but the public opinion war and psychological warfare among the Kanto princes had no room for display in Hanoi County.
The most important thing is that all this does not rely on force, or force is only used as a background rather than a means.
It was only then that Li Shushi began to realize that perhaps Huang Zhong's potential was not limited to the military, even if his intellectual potential was not surprising from his attributes.
However, as a mature-minded adult who lives in a relatively complex Nanyang aristocratic group that also plays an important role in the Han political circle, Huang Zhong's experience in dealing with others is obviously far beyond Li Shushi's imagination.
, but this middle-aged uncle cleverly concealed all this because of his rich life experience.
Until he was "forced" by Li Shushi into a position where he would cause trouble if he didn't give his best.
It was also in the position of the governor of Hanoi that Huang Zhong's wisdom accumulated in the past turned into practical abilities little by little. Even though it is undeniable that Hanoi, as a large county close to Henan, has always had no shortage of talents, and the level of low-level officials is far beyond
The national average level, but Huang Zhong's ability to skillfully control these people and make them perform work above the standard is still worthy of praise.
Therefore, Li Shushi believed that as long as Huang Zhong had the ability to deal with Xun You, so that the uncle could exert more than 50% of his active surname, and with the help of Guo Jian and other cronies arranged by Li Shushi in Shuozhou, Huang Zhong's herding trip to Shuozhou would be a success.
It’s still worth looking forward to.
After all, they are much more capable than I was back then.
With Lu Zhi leaving Shuozhou, the entire political layout of Shuozhou will also undergo great changes with Li Shushi taking over.
As the saying goes, one emperor has one minister, and Li Shushi's strategic goals are quite different from Lu Zhi's.
However, before introducing Li Shushi's arrangements, we must first talk about the political environment of Shuozhou under Lu Zhi's rule.
Although Li Shushi has not relaxed his attention there, and the Xihe Li family and some other forces that Li Shushi once left there can pass on news for him, Lu Zhi's Shuozhou can basically be said to be completely useless to Bingzhou.
It's harmful, so whether the information there is important or urgent, it belongs to the lower level of all intelligence.
In fact, if Dong Zhuo hadn't suddenly recruited Lu Zhi to Chang'an and Lu Zhi had responded to this proposal, Jia Xu would not have even submitted the information related to Shuozhou to Li Shushi - because there was really no need.
And this is why Li Shushi was a little surprised when he looked back at the information.
The changes in Shuozhou seem to have exceeded Li Shushi's previous imagination.
When Lu Zhi first accepted Shuozhou, although Shuozhou nominally owned the six counties of Yunzhong, Dingxiang, Xihe, Wuyuan, Shuofang, and Shangjun, as Dingxiang and Yunzhong merged into one, Lu Zhi's
What can be controlled is only one county in Yunzhong and the west
The rest of Heban County was basically either occupied by various barbarian forces. At least it was very difficult for the Han Dynasty to extend its hands to those places.
complex social situation.
Just as Liu Hong had promised Li Shushi, Liu Hong also gave Lu Zhi the maximum support - exempting taxes on Xihe, and at the same time giving Lu Zhi high decision-making power over the appointment of Shuozhou officials.
Although most of the so-called Shuozhou area at that time was beyond the jurisdiction of the Han Dynasty, such a private commitment could be considered a considerable decentralization.
In fact, if Liu Hong was not at ease with Lu Zhi, and Shuozhou really had no money, this kind of thing would never have happened. And it was precisely because of this that Lu Zhi took Liu Hong's request as his will.
Implemented to date.
It was under such circumstances that Lu Zhi had the greatest opportunity to show off all his talents.
Until now, although Li Shushi had divided and disintegrated the Huns, tried every means to weaken the Xianbei people, and win over Taiyuan, the Wuwan people in the Xihe area had objectively helped Lu Zhi, allowing him to reduce a lot of external pressure and internal disturbances, but he was able to completely control Xihe and
The entire county of Yunzhong (including the former Dingxiang County) basically controlled all of Shangjun and most of Wuyuan County. Lu Zhi's political and military skills were indeed powerful.
Strong means also bring about a strong bureaucracy to maintain the operation of this huge force.
Among the four counties controlled by Lu Zhi, the prefect of Xihe County has always been vacant, which is equivalent to Lu Zhi taking up the position concurrently. After all, the nominal Hun royal court is still here. Lu Zhi needs to use his reputation to promote a series of policies and prevent
Possible problems.
The governor of Yunzhong has been handed over to Zhang Yan, the leader of the Black Mountain Army, the remnant of the Yellow Turban Army, while Zhang Niujiao has been hiding behind the scenes. However, after so many years, inspired by Lu Zhi's personal charm, Zhang Niujiao has done nothing to make Lu Zhi difficult.
Instead, he became Lu Zhi’s strongest supporter. Even before Lu Zhi’s death this time,
Among the escorts to Chang'an were Zhang Niujiao and more than a hundred elite Yellow Turbans led by him. It is rumored that Zhang Niujiao's Yellow Turbans soldiers were the highest achievement developed by the former Taiping Dao - Yellow Turban Warriors.
There is some magical power in the mastery, but there are different opinions on what the specific power is.
Of course, Li Shushi is more willing to believe that this is a rumor spread by some thoughtful people. After all, even if he has not stayed at the top of the Yellow Turban Army for a long time, don't forget that he holds "The Art of Taiping" in his hands.
authentic and "Taiping"
A projection copycat version of "Qing Ling Dao", Zhang Niujiao is at best a combat priest who can preach and slash people. It is really difficult for him to do research and development, so you said those yellow scarf warriors are Zhang Jiao's legacy from those days
The "heritage" is more reliable.
Wuyuan County, like Xihe County, does not have a prefect to manage it, because it is still in a tug-of-war between the Han army and the Xianbei people. The troops under the command of Qu Yi, who is the Xiongnu Zhonglang General, are basically there without the control of the Huns.
Bian had a great time playing with the Xianbei people.
Of course, although the position of prefect was not established, Qu Yi actually assumed various responsibilities of the prefect.
Anyway, Wuyuan County now is basically all about military-related matters, and Qu Yi has been able to shoulder it after so many years of experience.
And this Shangjun... When he saw the name of the prefect of Shangjun, Li Shushi had the urge to grab the land with his head.
Du Ji, Du Bohou.
This man was not very outstanding in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but he was a very outstanding official. He served as the prefect of Hedong for sixteen years. During this period, he experienced numerous storms and waves, but he was finally able to make the local people live and work in peace and contentment.
It provided a large amount of logistical support for Cao Cao's campaign in the northwest and Hanzhong regions. This ability was outstanding even in the Three Kingdoms period at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty when there were many capable people. Moreover, his policy concept of "benefiting and prospering the people" was even more outstanding.
Role model.
Of course, despite so many words of praise for him, it is very sad that the reputation brought by these diligent efforts has become really insignificant compared to the name of this old man's grandson.
Who is Du Ji's grandson so powerful?
The answer: It’s Du Yuankai, who is as famous as our Guan Erye and likes "Left Turn" to the point of obsession.
You can go to Du Niang for in-depth exchanges on how powerful Du Yu, the famous general who defeated Wu, is. The only off-topic sentence is: You can see from Du Yu's various encounters, if Sima Yan hadn't been a member of the Jin Dynasty
The unified emperor, his personal evaluation will definitely drop a lot. This emperor is completely comparable to Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty - it seems that the country is really at its most prosperous, but it is also the turning point from prosperity to decline. It can even be said that
The humiliating history of their descendants can basically be found in them.
Du Ji was originally the county magistrate of Zheng County in Jingzhao. Speaking of which, an interesting incident happened when he was the magistrate of Zheng County.
It is said that the former magistrate of Zheng County was even more incompetent than Li Shushi. Not only did he have poor political performance, but he also had a large backlog of cases and did not act. He even had hundreds of people in jail awaiting trial.
, you must know that this is a place under the jurisdiction of Jingzhao. Although the area of Jingzhao during the Eastern Han Dynasty
The position is far from being comparable to that of the Western Han Dynasty, but it is still considered an important place in Gyeonggi Province. Now it is equivalent to a district party secretary + district court in Shanghai. The director of the procuratorate drinks and does nothing all day long, and goes to nightclubs all day long.
Happy, I guess I will be punished by Lord He Crab's iron pincers a long time ago.
We don’t know what happened to this excellent predecessor. After all, due to the existence of the ten permanent servants and the trend of selling officials and conferring titles, you really can’t guarantee the purity of the grassroots bureaucracy, and the more prosperous the area, the more so.
As a result, as soon as Du Ji took office, he was just like Pang Tong when Zhang Fei inspected Leiyang. Although it was not as exaggerated as solving it in half a day, Du Ji also ran up and down personally and solved the problem in a short time.
It's almost solved.
By the way, Pang Tong in The Romance of the Three Kingdoms performed the demeanor of the two magistrates of Zheng County. In history, Pang Tong lost his official position because of his neglect in Leiyang and poor political performance. If Lu Su had not played
If his own influence is lost, he will probably be buried for a generation. Therefore, it is very doubtful that the plot of Pang Tong in Lao Luo's Romance of the Three Kingdoms was influenced by Du Ji's deeds.
Therefore, the reason why Cao Wei was able to divide the world into three parts is that, in addition to those familiar figures and policies, diligent and capable local officials like Du Ji are definitely responsible for the rapid recovery of the war-torn Central Plains region.
And gradually gained an overwhelming national power advantage over Wu and Shu.
After talking so much about Du Ji, let us talk about the reason why Li Shushi wanted to grab the land with his head after seeing this name.
Because... I don't know if this guy is not too cold about Li Shushi or too cold about Lu Zhi. After hearing Lu Zhi's decision to be called to Beijing, he finished explaining all the political affairs at hand and came to Lu Zhi in a hurry and in a simple car. Judging from his posture,
It was a matter of life and death. Perhaps in Du Ji's view, Chang'an was an absolute dragon's nest, and Mr. Lu Zhi would be caught in it if he wasn't careful.
Although Du Ji was a filial son, he did not come from a powerful family, so he did not have the opportunity to be filial and honest. He was not even appointed as the meritorious officer of Jing Zhaoyin until he was twenty years old, and the magistrate of Zheng County mentioned before was also
It's just because he was the temporary deputy after the previous county magistrate resigned, which means that he did the county magistrate's work but did not have the rank of a county magistrate.
But for such a person, Lu Zhi didn't know where he knew about his existence. After a period of investigation, he recruited him into his mansion and first appointed him as the magistrate of Pingding County in the northwest of Xihe River.
Because of his outstanding political performance, he became the prefect of Shangjun and served until Lu Zhi left.
It can be said that Lu Zhi was absolutely grateful to him.
And this also explains the reason for Du Ji's previous actions. After all, although Du Ji is a civil servant, he does not lack courage. Therefore, whether in Pingding County or Shang County, on the one hand, he has a bodhisattva-like heart towards the people under his rule, but if
Some people dared to destroy the lives of the people, but they were able to raise the thunder sword in time. Only in this way did Shangjun become prosperous and prosperous, ranking second in Shuozhou.
If Li Shushi could learn about these situations earlier, he would definitely go to Mr. Lu and insist on keeping Du Ji no matter what, whether it was in the name of justice or personal feelings, and I believe that Mr. Lu Zhi would definitely cooperate with Li Shushi's actions.
, after all, it was not that Lu Zhi had not tried to persuade Du Ji when he ran to Mr. Lu. It was just because he saw that the other party was resolute and was thinking about other ideas that he did not insist on his own ideas. Li Shuzhen now had to regret himself.
Missed a great talent.
So, if you get a Zhang Ji but lose a Du Ji, between a drink and a peck, is it destiny?
Maybe Li Shushi can only comfort herself in this way.
As for others such as county magistrates or county officials, there were also many people who abandoned their official positions and joined Lu Zhi's team heading to Chang'an, and they were all the kind of staunch elements that you couldn't drive away no matter how hard you tried. Lu Zhi was both angry and moved at the same time.
In the end I just couldn't bear to refuse.
This shows what kind of prestige Mr. Lu Zhi has established in Shuozhou in the past few years to make so many people die for him.
"Does Zhang Yan want to go to Shangjun?" The general situation in Shuozhou has been clarified, and the next step is to make arrangements for it.
"Yes, the reason is well known to you, my lord. Mr. Lu's charm is really enough to make us admire him."
One of the two governors promoted by Lu Zhi, Du Ji, risked his life to follow him. The other, Zhang Yan, who was slightly more distant, also brought the former elite Yellow Turban Army who had been trained in the Yunzhong Frontier Fortress for a long time and was considered a veteran among the frontier soldiers to ask for orders.
Going to Shangjun, it is obvious that a sensible person knows exactly what his intention is.
After all, Shangjun and Zuo Fengyi are neighbors, and they are only separated from Chang'an, the seat of Jingzhao, by the Wei River, which is not very wide.
Except for Qu Yi, who has a close relationship with Li Shushi, who is relatively stable, the remaining forces directly affiliated with Lu Zhi have basically been stirred up to varying degrees. This is not only a reflection of Lu Zhi's personal charm, but also Li Shushi.
Very doubtful
This is a manifestation of some kind of back-up plan arranged by Lu Zhi. After all, Li Shushi knew very well how Dong Zhuo's "Burning Luoyang" made Mr. Lu angry. If he didn't fight to the death in Chang'an this time, he might not
Give up and give up.
Don't forget that although Lu Zhi has always shown a modest and generous side of a gentleman in front of juniors like Li Shushi, don't forget that gentlemen are also a group of people who "repay grievances with directness", not to mention the terrifying extent of an honest man's anger.
Need to add level 3.
"Is that so? It seems like the previous plan is going to change."
The unexpected answer made Li Shushi fall into deep thought again. (To be continued.
