Aunt Gongsun personally carried a fat cat to the backyard of her shop, and then sat down casually. After putting the cat on her lap, she adjusted her black-rimmed glasses, so she didn't panic.
He continued hurriedly. "The method is quite right, but it is only the right way. I still have to make some things clear to you."
"Mother, that's what I said bluntly." Gongsun Xun, who had followed him, sighed, and then sat down as well. The maids and attendants in the courtyard all realized their interest and left.
"You are definitely right to eliminate the nobles among the Wuhuan people and directly organize the people into households, but it may not last long." The aunt pinched Sha Mao's chin and said. "Because the Wuhuan people are semi-settled and semi-nomadic.
, it’s based on the fall of the curtain, and you said it yourself, you need to collect blood tax..."
Gongsun Xun did not have too many doubts about the word blood tax, because he understood the meaning of the word literally in an instant.
"So we are talking about Wenqi." Aunt Gongsun continued. "The Wuhuan people will definitely give rise to new noble leaders, either as leaders on the battlefield or as guides during the migration, and then they will be passed down by blood again.
...It's inevitable. This is the same as among the Han people. Over time, the rich and powerful become powerful, and the famous and powerful become wealthy. Brother, don't laugh at the second brother."
"But..." Gongsun Xun couldn't help but frown slightly. "Mother, this is not the same as the Han people, is it? The powerful and powerful Han people will not rebel just because they have become powerful and powerful, and these foreign leaders,
It seems to be inherently unstable and untrustworthy."
"This is another matter." Aunt Gongsun seemed to have expected her son's doubts. "In the final analysis, the Han system in your eyes corresponds to the Han farming civilization and is the result of countless sages of the Han family.
The result of thousands of years of exploration and practice based on the situation around you, it is not designed to deal with nomads..."
Gongsun Xun opened his mouth to speak, as if he remembered what his father-in-law had said before.
"Are you asking that there is no system that is compatible with nomadic herding and farming so that the grassland will not become a disaster?" Aunt Gongsun still knew her son's thoughts well.
"yes."
"Behind the system must be based on economy and productivity... If we can build railways and have guns and artillery, then any system can be effective on the grassland." Aunt Gongsun couldn't help but sigh. "But you
Mom, I am really powerless. After so many years, it has been very difficult to produce iron pots, salted fish, and reprint a few old books every year. Even when I found Taishi Ci before, I had already taken his mother to Liaodong.
, and even wrote a letter to persuade him to come to you, but in the end it was no match for a bus call from his in-laws..."
"..."
"But then again." Aunt Gongsun said again. "Because there is no productivity and technological level to rely on, so now we can only rely on the system. I thought about it for a long time on the way here, probably thinking about building temples and cities.
, Jisi... these are just old methods."
Gongsun Xun said nothing, pretending to be attentive and listening.
"The so-called temple building means using religion to paralyze and weaken them... Taoism is not good. Taoism is too easy to rebel these days. Let Buddhism go... Monks are best suited to the grassland! When Taiyuan and Luoyang are conquered one day, let the monks of White Horse Temple and Wutai Mountain
Drive them all to the grassland, and you can become a Manjushri Bodhisattva!"
Although Gongsun Xun only knew that Manjushri Bodhisattva had helped Sun Houhou, he also roughly understood the meaning of this, so he did not go into details.
"And the so-called city building is at the necessary nodes... For example, like Chengde, proper construction of the city forces the grassland forces to fragment and prevent them from becoming powerful. However, now they can only rely on the terrain, which is also very expensive.
, you have to take your time. If you really want to do it on a large scale, you will need cement... But my mother, I am really powerless, who makes me not an engineering dog? "
Gongsun Xun was still speechless.
"As for Ji Si, that's what you did in Chengde before, supporting pro-Han forces on the outskirts of the grassland..."
"About this." Gongsun Xun, who had been listening carefully, suddenly frowned. "Simple restraint is too unstable... People like Mo Hu Zang suddenly betrayed me, and I also have some doubts about Duan Ri Yuming's previous performance.
...My father-in-law told me the day before yesterday that these methods are only for temporary use. Once the situation is not right, or if the leader is changed casually, it will cause trouble. Although I don't care about this on the surface, I still listen to it in my heart.
. But as my mother said, whether it is building a temple or a city, it takes several generations to do it slowly. On the contrary, the only method I can use now is to restrain the restraint. So, how to restrain the restraint? How?
Choose someone?”
"It depends on whether you are talking about the long term or the immediate future." Aunt Gongsun raised her eyebrows slightly.
"How are you now?" Gongsun Xun sighed.
"At the moment, of course, those who follow you will prosper, and those who go against you will perish. Whoever goes against you will be beaten, and whoever is honest will be given a bone... You asked me to come, didn't you just want Amway to cooperate with you and annex Wuhuanzhi?"
Will I take the opportunity to eat some of the Zahu tribes who followed the Wuhuan people before, and then support a few new tribes to replace the Mohu tribe? There is nothing to say. The eighteen princes are about to challenge Dong, so there is no time.
Don't worry about these things, just cut the knot with a sharp knife and just do it! Anyway, now you have won the battle in Liaoxi, you have the final say!"
"But what about the long term?"
"If the cycle lasts for a long time, there is only one criterion, not about people, but about tribes... Specifically, it depends on the degree of Chineseization of this tribe. If a tribe truly realizes that it is better to be a Han than a barbarian.
, and are willing to practice Chineseization, accept the Han system, and even awaken some doctrines in the process... Then we should not care about whether the leader is not the leader! After all, you said it yourself, the loyalty of such things as the leader is
Depending on the current situation, there will be constant changes over time, but the overall loyalty and controllability of a large tribe are relatively more stable." At this point, Aunt Gongsun's tone couldn't help but become lighter. "Yes.
In my opinion, the two Han Dynasties have been unreasonable in this regard for hundreds of years... The Qiang and Han people in Liangzhou have integrated their cultures from their blood sources. Instead of absorbing the Qiang people, they despised the Han people in Liangzhou; the Di people started from the pre-Han Dynasty
, has almost been completely Chineseized, and even focuses on farming, but the court still doesn’t treat people as human beings... It’s been hundreds of years, and it’s time to give them an ID card anyway!”
Gongsun Xun was very clear about what happened in Liangzhou and was deeply impressed by it, so he couldn't argue with it.
"I have written it down." After thinking this, Gongsun Xun nodded seriously, and then asked again. "One more thing... Mother, where did A Ding and A Ping go to their father-in-law?"
"That's right." Aunt Gongsun continued to hold the fat cat and smiled. "I asked Zhao Zilong to take them there, and I also know what you are going to say... Gongsun Du disappeared, but Zhao Bao, who was even more famous, came, and
As soon as he arrived in Liaodong, he recruited Tai Shici. I was also surprised at the time... But then I thought about it, we are a family after all, and we won't harm you, right? And if something big happens, he can't just stand by and watch, right? Besides,
, in this situation, it’s too late even if you want to drive him away.”
"That's not what I meant." Gongsun Xun was also helpless. "However, He Jin has indeed begun to recruit foreign soldiers to join the court. I also received a private message... Calculating the time, the emperor has been dead for almost two months. Damn it.
He is dead. When I go back and deal with Liu Yu, maybe the dust will have settled. But I don’t know what the final outcome of Luozhong will be in the current situation. Will the winner be Dong Zhongying? Liucheng is still too remote, so I can only
It's all smoke and mirrors! And mother, after I finish dealing with Liu Yu and integrate the forces in northern Xinjiang, what should I do? Should I go south to seize Jizhou, or should I surrender first and raise a banner along Luoyang to form an alliance or something like that?
thing?"
"It doesn't matter." Aunt Gongsun said nonchalantly. "That's your business, you can make the decision yourself... If you want me to help you, if you want Amway to do things for you, that's a matter of course. I only have you as my son."
What? Just like this time, you can prepare to take the main force back to Lulongsai to deal with Chengde now. I will definitely help you eat it later in Liaoxi. You don’t have to worry about the adaptation of Wuhuan and Zahu tribes. Your father-in-law will also take it.
I have no idea. But when it comes to things like big strategies, you still have to make your own decisions. If you have to ask me, I can only give you a suggestion based on my own business experience..."
As she said this, Aunt Gongsun raised her eyes and glanced at Han Dang, who suddenly appeared outside the door and stood with his knife in hand. After the latter made sure that the two people in the courtyard had noticed her, he retreated again without saying a word.
"Tell me, mother." Gongsun Xun asked as he stood up.
"There is no perfect plan in the world. The more you think, the more you will lose. You must be decisive...and once you make a decision, you must do it at all costs! If you accomplish more, the overall situation will be yours!" Aunt Gongsun dropped her arms.
The medium-fat cat urged, "Go ahead. Han Yigong is a decent man. He must have something big to do when he comes to you."
Gongsun Xun immediately nodded and turned around, but halfway through he was stopped by his mother:
"By the way, Zhao Yun is really good! I didn't help you get Taishi Ci. I was really annoyed at first, but now that Zhao Zilong is here, I finally gained something from what was lost!"
Gongsun Xun, who understood his mother's temper, laughed dryly and could only turn around and try to persuade him: "Taishi Ziyi was born in a noble family and was a thoughtful person. Mother doesn't need to care about it! There are so many heroes in the world. The key is to have the general trend at hand.
In this case, the real hero will always come to you!"
"It's good if you think so." Aunt Gongsun waved her hand again, urging her son to get busy. However, when Gongsun Xun walked to the door, he heard his mother's voice again. "Stop, did you just do that?
What do you want to say but haven’t said? About my in-laws..."
"Mom, you heard me wrong." Gongsun Xun laughed again, but he walked directly out of the backyard door of Amway Store.
Aunt Gongsun chuckled, but was too lazy to pay attention to her grown-up son.
"What's the matter?" Gongsun Xun asked as soon as he went out.
"Your Majesty, Mohu Zang is here." Han Dang answered concisely and concisely while holding his knife.
Even though Gongsun Xun had just received some education from his mother, he thought he was settled and could regroup and start again. However, at this time, he could only be stunned for a moment, and then he paused for a long time before he managed to laugh:
"How did you come? How many people came?"
"More than two thousand people, many of them wounded, stopped on the west side of the Daling River. Then a man named Mo Huzhen, wearing white clothes, barefoot and with disheveled hair, and carrying only a head... from the building class... crossed the river alone.
Now he is kneeling outside the west city gate and waiting for you. The place has been cleared for a long time, and Mr. Zibo and Mr. Zhicai are both there."
Gongsun Xun laughed more and more, but suddenly he pulled out the opponent's saber from Han Dang's waist with his backhand, and then directly dragged the white blade out.
Han Dang had no choice but to follow closely.
"Mo Hutou!" Half a quarter of an hour later, in front of the city gate, Gongsun Xun saw the opponent's figure from a distance, and he could no longer hold back his anger. He actually passed Lou Gui directly, Xi Zhong, and dragged his knife forward. "
Come and be safe! I heard that you did great things in Beidi during my absence in Youzhou for half a year!"
Mohu Zheng saw Gongsun Xun coming with a white blade from a distance, but he just kowtowed in reply: "Sir! I was half-hearted before and knew that I would not be spared. If you want to kill me, I really have nothing to say... But today, I
I came here with no intention of begging you to spare my life! I just hope that after you kill me, you can leave Mo Hubu a way to live..."
"You, Mo Hu, have clear rewards and punishments. You are so prestigious. If I kill you, how can Mo Hu be willing to obey me?" Gongsun Xun sneered, but he was already in front of him. "But if I don't kill you, what will happen to me?"
Can remove a stronghold in the heart...Mohu, why do you think that I can kill your people and spare your tribe?"
"Sir! Junhou! General Wei!" Mohu Zhi leaned on the ground and saw the opponent's footsteps approaching him. The blade was already slightly off the ground, but he couldn't help but tremble all over, but he continued to defend his people.
"Although the villain was shaken for a moment, the entire Mohu tribe is not guilty! Starting from Lulongsai more than ten years ago, the Mohu tribe started as a small Xianbei tribe. It has always sacrificed its life for the adults. From then on,
Not even half a time have I pointed my sword and spear at you! Lu Long did this to Ke Zuique in front of the fortress! Liucheng Yanglejian did this to Ke Zutan! Danhan showed you the way in front of the mountain! I sat down to die for you! That was before
The siege of Bailang Mountain was also done under the orders of your lord! But this time I was confused and wavered, but from the beginning to the end, no one in the Mohu tribe dared to actually raise a sword against the prince!"
Gongsun Xun couldn't help but sneer, but he stopped in front of the other party.
At this point, when he saw Gongsun Xun's boots stopped in front of him, Mo Huzhang mustered up the courage to raise his head and continued to speak with all his strength: "My lord is someone who wants to do great things... You can kill me because of your grievances.
Anyway, I only have a humble life, but I actually dare to disobey you, even though I have nine deaths, I have no regrets! I can kill thousands or even tens of thousands of people and end the survival of a tribe, but you have to set an example for the people of the world!"
"Are you saying that my rewards and punishments are unfair?" Gongsun Xun lowered his head and sneered.
"That's not what I meant!" Mohu Zhong answered with his head raised, but he burst into tears. "How could I not know that if it weren't for your kindness, how could I, Mohu Zhong, and Mohubu be where we are today? Your Majesty did not feel sorry for us in the slightest.
, but this time, it was really just me who was confused. I was the one who failed you, and Mo Hubu did not fail you! In fact, based on your kindness to me, I should have died for you at the foot of Bailang Mountain that day...
How did this situation come about? It’s all my own fault.”
"Lower your head!" Gongsun Xun shouted coldly.
Mohu bowed his head to the ground again, but he saw that the white blade in the opponent's hand had reached the side of his neck, and he was shaking like chaff again... because in the next moment, his life might really disappear.
"I want to ask you one last thing." Gongsun Xun slapped the opponent's neck with the blade and said, "Tell me the truth."
"Sir, please speak." When he was about to die, tears and runny nose came down from Mo Hu's cheeks involuntarily.
"Why did you suddenly waver?" Gongsun Xun stepped on the other party's shoulders, and his anger rarely broke out. "With your intelligence, can you not understand the situation?"
"At that time, Kebi Neng surrounded me in Bailang Mountain, and then came to the battle in person to question me, saying that I was obviously a Xianbei person." Mohu Zang suddenly stopped trembling, but tears could not stop falling down his cheeks to the ground.
."Why do you want to be a dog for the Han people? I can't answer that!"
Gongsun Xun finally changed his color.
"Sir, I, the Mohu tribe, are originally from a noble family in the central part of Xianbei. I have lived in Murong Temple in the southeast of Danhan Mountain for a long time. Later, I encountered wars and most of my tribes were scattered. I was forced to move to western Liaoning. My father and brother were both dead, so I entrusted the tribe to me.
At that time, my father had his last words, asking me to revive the tribe and return to my ancestral land... Although I was a cowardly person, I did not forget this ambition. I managed my business carefully in western Liaoning, hoping that one day I could return to Xianbei in central China.
But unexpectedly, I met the old lady and the Lord!" Mohu Zang became more and more tearful, and he actually choked up. "For more than ten years, thanks to Lord's grace, the tribe has gradually prospered, but many practices have been Sinicized, and there are many people in the tribe.
I study Chinese and live in the city. I am thinking about restoring the honor of the tribe, but at the same time I have gradually looked down on the achievements of my father, brother and even my ancestors. However, I have a clear background and my Xianbei body... Over the years, I have been suffering constantly.
.So, Kebi was able to invite me to form an alliance in the name of reviving Xianbei's prestige, so I was momentarily wavered... Sir, as I said before, I deserve to die, just to avoid my tribe! They really didn't even think about it at all.
Betraying your lord! And this time I led them to intercept and kill Kebineng’s defeated army, so it will be even less possible for them to join forces with Xianbei again!”
At this point, Mohu Zang didn't say much anymore, he just lay on the ground and cried non-stop... He didn't know whether it was because he was afraid of death or because he was thinking about his father and brother, and he couldn't help himself.
"Did you know that my mother has arrived in Yangle?" Gongsun Xun's face was expressionless, but he suddenly exerted force on his feet.
"I just wish I couldn't thank the old lady in person for her kindness over the years!" Mohu Zang choked up more and more after hearing this. "If I had known this, I would have been a few days later..."
Gongsun Xun didn't say anything, he just looked forward and directly slid the blade in his hand.
Following the opponent's movements, Mohu Zhi felt a stinging pain on his neck under his ears, and blood spurted out. He had no choice but to close his eyes and wait for death... But as the blade slid past, he actually opened his eyes again,
And he was shocked and confused.
It turned out that Gongsun Xun only cut off one of his ears.
"If my mother hadn't interceded with you, you would have died today... and the more than two thousand young people from the Mohu tribe in Hexi were also dead." Gongsun Xun said and handed the bloody knife to Han Dang behind him. "Today,
For the time being, I will only take back one of your ears, and I will only take back Chengde City from the Mohu Department. You go to the city to find my mother! She has something to tell you!"
After saying this, Gongsun Xun actually dropped Mo Hu's blood-stained trousers and turned around and walked away.
Lou Gui and Xi Zhong did not dare to neglect and turned around to follow. Only Han Dang sighed helplessly and stepped forward to help the other person up.
"Brother Yi Gong!" The messy Mohu Zang followed Han Dang into the city. He came to his senses when he came to the back door of the Amway Store, but he suddenly grabbed Han Dang's wrist. "I know...it's all you."
My dear friend, I hope you will protect your old relationship in the past, otherwise I will never survive today!"
"You think too much!" Han Dang sighed helplessly when facing this real old friend. "The Lord is really angry with you this time. Under the power, how can we people help you to plead for mercy?"
Thanks, you still have to thank the old lady and yourself!"
"Myself..." Mohu's face was stinging and bleeding, but he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"If you hadn't always been able to win the hearts of the people, killing you would have annihilated the entire Mohu clan, and you would have died today. If it weren't for your fear and caution, you didn't kill Gongsun Du in public that day.
If you say something as a success, you will definitely die today!" Han Dang shook his head helplessly and sighed. "Go and wash your face first, don't show off in front of the old lady!"
Mohu Zang suddenly came to his senses, but he quickly bowed his head and thanked the other party.
——————I am the dividing line where Chinese language is the first indicator————
"Taizu not only collected the Wuhuan people, but also defeated Kebineng, so he united all the tribes in western Liaoning and gained 200,000 mouths. The western part of Liaoning was at peace. When Mohu Zang heard about it, he led his troops out of Chengde and killed Kebineng.
Qiu Li lived in Zilouban and went to Liucheng with his head to seek an audience. When Taizu saw this, he ordered Han Dang to test his neck with a white blade and asked: "Why did you hesitate in the past? How can you make a clear decision now? I have been like you again and again, can you rely on it?"
He was bleeding from the cheeks and neck, and was crying and crying: "I have never failed Ming Gong in my life. I was hesitant in the past because Ming Gong was not here and refused to obey Lu Changshi. If Ming Gong is angry, he can kill me, but I only ask for pardon for the tribe." Tai
Zu Nai laughed and said, "Is it possible that I can't tolerate others? However, you should not rebel again!" He ordered Han Dang to cut off one ear of his cheek to show his left and right." - "Jiu Yan Shu", Volume 61.
