Chapter 22 Hugh asks the world sooner or later Qing Dynasty
In the midsummer of May, as Xia Houyuan's flying horse returned from Jinan, the whole world seemed to have entered an era of great harmony in an instant... Gongsun Xun, the most powerful person in the world, maintained a cautious posture and began to turn around to build the system, and the princes of the Central Plains also Under Gongsun Xun's huge military and political pressure, they became particularly close to each other.
There were constant exchanges of envoys, the Suishui Treaty was revised, Cao and Sun agreed to marry each other for their children, not to mention Tao Qian had no daughter, but he married the most outstanding woman in his wife's family to Liu Bei, who had ruled Huainan, for this reason. Mrs. Gan.
It is worth mentioning that the person who actually presided over the marriage was none other than Cao Cao's biological father, the late Lieutenant Cao Song. As early as when Cao Cao went north to Yanzhou, he ignored his age and fatness and took the position of Liu Bei's elder. He traveled to Xuzhou and Huainan in person, met with Tao Qian and reminisced about the past, and even went so far as to recruit Liu Bei, ask for his name, and even paid for Liu Bei to complete the most important acceptance ceremony. This made the engagement witnessed by a third party. It has great political significance, and Mrs. Gan has gained an unprecedented political status.
Comparatively speaking, as a dowry concubine, Tao Qian's sister Mi Zhu, Mrs. Donghai Mi was more than three heads shorter.
The four strongest powers in the Central Plains became one, advancing and retreating together. Under the righteousness of the Han Dynasty, they temporarily maintained a certain political low profile towards Gongsun Xun in order to maintain peace... For a time, it seemed that the entire ten years since the Yellow Turban Rebellion had begun. The years of war seemed to have ended.
The common people, at least the common people in the Yellow River Basin, could take a breather on the edge of life and death, and the scholars, who had also been troubled by war, plague, famine, and banditry for more than ten years, also ushered in a period of activity again.
You must know that those disasters are fair to everyone. Bandits may be able to barely distinguish whether you are a well-known scholar, and then only steal your food and save your life, but famine and plague will never look down upon you. These ten In the middle of the year, I don’t know how many famous families like the Shanyang Wang family have withered to the point where only a few children are still alive. Even those who have barely managed to maintain the situation, recognized representatives of the family, such as the Yuan family in Runan, will also die. Is Yuan Shu the only one left? For example, the Xun family in Yingchuan, didn't half of them die first, and then there were still people who went to Dong Zhuo's prison and Gongsun Xun's border county labor camp one after another?
You know, this was the head of the clan in the past, the representative of the family. They were all like this, how can the people below do any better?
However, when the situation calmed down a little, unlike ordinary people who thought about picking wild fruits in the summer to wait for the autumn, the first reaction of the scholars who had a little breather was the future.
Because they have had no serious future for more than ten years.
To be fair, if you meet someone like Cao Cao, Liu Bei, or Liu Biao who is good at finding talents and comes to your hometown, it's okay. At least he can serve as an official in the state and county. But if you meet someone like Tao Qian, who is looking down on me even if he refuses once, he has to do it. What do you say to the owner of the prison? What do you say when you meet someone like Liu Yan, Jia Long, Shi Xie, and Zhu Jun who directly started filming due to regional conflicts? What do you say when you meet someone like Zhang Tianshi in Hanzhong?
And Tao Qian, Liu Yan, and even Zhang Tianshi are all pretty good. If you find someone like Yuan Shu who has close ties with thieves all over the world, where will you go to reason?
This is no joke. Yuan Shu has been struggling in the south for four or five years. In addition to the achievement that his power has gradually shrunk from the top three in the world to now being counterattacked by Sun Jian, the biggest and most bizarre achievement is that he has the support of bandits all over the world!
The Black Mountain bandits supported Yuan Gongdao from a distance, and the Baibo bandits also supported Yuan Gongdao from the air. When the Yellow Turbans in Yuzhou rose up to drive out Kong Ni, they used the banner of the rear general. Even the Shaopi bandits who were suppressed by Liu Bei went north to rob. When Xu Chu was in his hometown, he also held the banner of Yuan Shu to sweep away Yuzhou, not to mention the river bandits and lake bandits in the south. Once these people had trouble with Zhu Jun and his son, who were driven out of Jiaozhou and settled in Jiangdong, they would have to dominate Yuan Highway. flag!
Even when Gongsun Xun quickly entered Qingzhou, Yu Du, a professional revolutionary operating around Mount Tai, encouraged Guan Hai to change the banner of General Wei and claimed to be a close ally of General Hou...
To put it bluntly, even a man as powerful as Gongsun Xun had to stoop down and pretend to compromise with the Qingzhou Confucian scholars if he wanted to create a new system. You, Yuan Jiujiu, started with such a good territory and power, but you are fighting with bandits every day. Not to mention, in order to maintain a luxurious life, we have to plunder the nobles and the common people together. It is no wonder that even our own people are unwilling to follow and instead follow Liu Bei!
Of course, for scholars, seeking an official position is a serious matter, especially when they have to consider family survival issues and the actual local separatism, so most people still maintain a cautious attitude to prevent them from falling behind. Hetao Kun was sentenced to herding sheep. But as for the prerequisite for seeking an official position, that is, studying, there are not so many worries... I heard that the imperial court established a university in Yecheng, and the ancient classics, which was widely popular in the Guandong region, was officially It became an officially recognized doctrine, and at the same time, the god Zheng Xuan accepted the conquest and became Taichang. He took charge of teaching and selecting talents in Yecheng. Scholars not only in Hebei but also in the entire Central Plains were somewhat ready to take action.
"I believe that General Wei's many new policies, except for the policy of dividing the states, are all temporary measures to save people from chaos. They may not be long-lasting, and they may not be prepared to last for a long time... It is useless to think too much!"
In late May, there was a "charity house" on the bank of Suishui River in Peiguo, Yuzhou, which was an inn and restaurant opened by Cao Hong's family to guard the main road of Suishui. On this night, because of the world's Jianping became extremely lively, and the scene of the scholars carrying baggage, driving cars, and bringing books to check in at night, talking loudly in the evening, also made many older people feel a little emotional.
"What you are saying is a bit frivolous, isn't it?" The person who spoke spoke with a Huainan accent, and he was a young man who reluctantly traveled alone. He was discriminated against in Huaibei, the hinterland of the Central Plains, so he couldn't help but speak up and participate in the discussion. The young scholar sitting next to him who was playing cards after dinner raised his voice and retorted. "No matter what else, I just saw General Wei enacting the Dragon Boat Festival. Immediately, the proclamation of the new system was issued from everywhere at the same time in the name of the imperial court. Within more than ten days, the proclamation was posted." This Suishui seems to have been carefully planned for a long time, and foreign and domestic affairs have been well prepared... Just from this fact, we know that he is determined to implement this new law!"
"Jiujiang Jiang Gan Jiang Ziyi, brother, please invite me." When the young man heard someone arguing, he became excited and immediately turned around with a Huainan accent.
"It turns out he is a prodigy from Jiujiang. I am Meng Jian Meng Gongwei from Runan. Beside me is Shi Tao Shi Guangyuan from Yingchuan... uh... this card player is also from Yingchuan. His name is Xu Shu and Xu Yuanzhi." The person who casually retorted was that When Meng Jian saw that the other party was so polite and a famous figure in Jiujiang, he had no choice but to put down the animal cards with his two card buddies and stood up to return the favor. "A table with four sides, three missing and one missing... If the child prodigy is alone, he might as well come here." Sharing the same table.”
"The talk of a child prodigy is nothing more than praise from the locals, why should I care about it? It is my honor to meet all the talents from the Central Plains during this trip." Jiang Qian continued while holding his own nettle soup (mung bean soup).
Tang) sat over, not acknowledging life at all.
By the way, Jiang Qian was famous among young people in Huainan, but he was neither arrogant nor impetuous, and was so kind, which actually made Meng Jian and others feel a little embarrassed.
Therefore, after everyone sat down, they reshuffled the cards and played a four-person card game while continuing the topic with some caution and politeness.
"What did Ziyi say before that General Wei's new policy may not last long?" After a moment of awkwardness, Shi Tao took over the topic and asked.
"Brother Gongwei misunderstood before." Jiang Gan replied with a smile and spoke clearly. "I am not saying that General Wei has not put his heart into the New Deal, nor am I doubting his determination, but I am saying that these policies are not his personal creation, but he has achieved more.
As for the old government, based on the past results of the old government, these policies are destined to only be used for a while...that is, when the world is in chaos and the world is initially settled. Later, after the world is at peace, these policies are destined to be difficult to sustain, or they are
It needs to be changed back!”
"I would like to hear the details." Although Xu Shu was young, he seemed extremely calm and remained silent. However, Meng Jian and Shi Tao took the initiative to ask after looking at each other.
"Actually, many of General Wei's new policies are nothing more than three things... One is to restrain powerful people and seek wealth through open sources, such as counting land taxes from Ding, such as the three-chief system, such as conferring land; the second is to get rid of the trend of talking and inviting names,
To reorganize the path to becoming an official, such as going to the imperial examination and allowing oneself to join the ranks, such as setting up a university in Yecheng, such as setting up a science and shooting policy, and then becoming an official after taking the examination; third, unifying military and political affairs, such as dividing states and counties, such as the nine grades of civil and military affairs
"Divided into different levels." Jiang Qian answered seriously. "These measures are exactly the same as General Wei's actions in front of the Weiyang Palace to blame the Ling Emperor, the family, and the powerful for causing chaos in the world. I wonder if you can do this?"
"Ziyi's conclusion is insightful." Meng Jian nodded... This is something everyone knows.
"Among them, there is no need to say more about restraining the powerful." Seeing this, Jiang Gan continued to speak sternly. "In the former Han Dynasty, the powerful annexed the land so much that the people had no place to stand, so that the bandits accumulated hundreds of thousands, and the red eyebrows and green forests were all over the place. Wang Mang also
Taking advantage of the situation to usurp... When Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty settled the world, he felt the decline of the previous Han Dynasty. Therefore, once the world was a little more peaceful, he would forcefully promote the strategy of consolidating the fields, so he restored the Han Dynasty for 180 years. But now,
The situation all over the world is so similar that General Wei desperately recommended this policy again, added three more commanders, and moved away from the Ding into the fields. It can only be said that it is a matter of course and only slightly strengthened."
He said that he didn't need to say much, but he spoke at a long length. He only said it in an orderly manner, and everyone had no choice but to nod.
"As for the policy of universities and scientific examinations, it has been in place for a long time." Seeing that everyone was listening attentively, Jiang Gan continued to talk. "Don't forget the system of Taixue and Taixue in this dynasty. This system originated from
The ancestors of the world were born in the Ming Dynasty... In the past, Taixue students studied at Luoyang Imperial College, with famous Confucian doctors as their teachers, and they set up science and education, and then became officials after passing the exams. Now, General Wei has set up a university in Yecheng, with Confucianism as the general manager, and the science and technology as its master.
Isn't it exactly the same thing to make decisions and become an official after taking exams? Only the revival of classical classical studies can be said to bring order out of chaos and make some progress."
Everyone suddenly realized... In fact, the Han Dynasty had long had the practice of selecting officials through examinations, and Jiang Gan only knew about the Imperial College system of the Later Han Dynasty, but he did not know that this policy existed in the Pre-Han Dynasty, starting from Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
The Imperial College was established, and outstanding students were selected every year to serve directly as officials. Emperor Guangwu, as a Imperial College student during the Wang Mang period, just repeated the old policy.
"As for the unification of military and political affairs..." Jiang Gan chuckled. "There is no need to say more. Since ancient times, whoever wants to achieve great things must not start a new effort?"
People around him laughed knowingly.
But after laughing, Meng Gongwei still remembered what the other party said at the beginning, and continued to ask: "Zi Yi is well versed in the past and the present, and he can easily pick up the sources of various political strategies. As you said, aren't these political strategies just right? Why can there only be
Is the policy of dividing states long-lasting?"
"Isn't this obvious?" Jiang Qian had already expected this question. He lowered his head and took a sip of nettle soup to moisten his throat. Then he held the card and smiled. "In the past, the ancestor Guangwu Dutian was so unconcerned that all the states and counties rebelled and all the heroes were abandoned.
However, after Guangwu, the strategy of conquering the fields still existed in name, but why did it come to the point where General Wei had to use swords to repeat it? It should be noted that if one hundred thousand soldiers in Hebei had not died, how could this strategy be carried out? And Taixuan Shengda
At that time, there were 30,000 people, and everyone was vying to be the imperial student, but why is he nowhere to be seen now, so that those who want to become officials have to invite names to talk, and sit down to discuss the truth? I think Cui Jigui was hated by General Wei, and he certainly killed his old friend with his own hands and then expressed his anger.
I mean, but he was born in a border county, served in the military and served as an assistant to the government of the world, so why is it that he really dislikes these famous families in his heart?"
Several people in the audience were silent for a while, but Meng Gongwei finally asked: "Why? Why did you end up in this situation?"
"This is because in the early days of the founding of a country, there were as many people in charge as you and me. They saw with their own eyes the shortcomings of the past, so they were able to stick to their true intentions and move forward indomitably. When the world is at peace, the rich and powerful will live in peace and fall! Only the powerful
Accumulation is self-reliant, and families are self-reliant, so what is the use of any system?" Jiang Gan put down the animal cards in his hands, spread his hands and asked. "After this dynasty conquered the fields, every county guard with two thousand shi was appointed as an official to deal with powerful people.
After the ancestors, the world was at peace for only 120 to 30 years, but the powerful became bigger and bigger, and the two thousand stones gradually became ineffective. Can General Wei's land be exempted from this example? Wouldn't the three-head system be as powerful as the rural pavilion?
Isn't it true that the strategy of going to the fields and leaving the small towns will be in vain because the officials are controlled by the powerful?"
Hearing this, not only the few people in the position, but also many scholars around them gradually became silent.
Seeing this, Jiang Qian became even more enthusiastic: "As for the politics of the university, the same principle applies. In fact, the governance of Taixue in this dynasty was based on eunuchs. At that time, the system of inspection and examination was actually a rescue strategy, which is why
Relying on this strategy, the eunuchs were prevented from being excessive. But later on, if you check me, I will promote you. Once the public family becomes powerful and the disciples and old officials are all over the world, who is willing to give up his position to others? So there are two Yuan and four
The Three Lords of the World used this to become famous for a while and brought trouble to the world. And General Wei adopted the new system of setting up a science and shooting policy. Who will be the examiner? Since there are examiners, there are always disciples to talk about, right? In the future, can we really avoid having disciples and former officials all over the world?
Do you want to say that? As for the nine-level system, it is thrown out at this time. It was established with the intention of balancing civil and military affairs. In the future, if the world is stabilized and the civil and military imbalances are unbalanced, who can have the final say? That’s why I say below that only dividing the states
This is the best policy...because if you do this, you will only get more official positions, but no one will object to this matter."
Everyone laughed for a while.
"So, everything General Wei did was useless?" After he stopped laughing, Xu Shu, the young scholar at the table who had been silent, asked a question in return.
"That's not what I meant." Jiang Qian laughed more and more. "I just want to say that today's General Wei's new strategy is actually nothing new. It is nothing more than that he is more fierce, more powerful, and more strategic than his ancestors.
That's all... In the past, Guangwu of the clan could use those old strategies to extend Yanhan's destiny for one hundred and eighty years. Couldn't General Wei's strategy not determine the destiny for two to three hundred years? To be honest, Brother Xu, this trip is exactly what I want to do.
Go to Yecheng to see if you can get into university."
The people around laughed again.
But Meng Gongwei simply stood up and praised him: "No wonder people say that Chiang Kai-shek in Jiujiang is the only one who can distinguish talents from Jianghuai. He is indeed brilliant!"
The atmosphere in the "Yishe" hall became more and more lively.
In other words, as Jiang Gan said, although Gongsun Xun used the power of military victory to implement many new policies, they may not be so earth-shattering, because what Jiang Gan said is true... Even after Aunt Gongsun understood the policies of the Han Dynasty,
Some people can only remain silent after the old system.
However, Jiang Gan's words were completely limited by his knowledge and failed to penetrate the essence. In other words, he ignored Gongsun Xun's "benevolent policy" that he implemented very early on.
In fact, from Gongsun Xun's own perspective, the killer move he and his mother, Gongsun Xun, hid after research and discussion, was none other than the process of military and civilian settlements gathering fields and people, and then disbanding the settlements.
Specifically, starting from the autumn of this year, starting from Youzhou, Gongsun Xun will gradually disband the military and civilian villages, and then grant land to the original villagers' families according to Dingkou, and this process will continue in Jizhou after the war.
Repeat it in Yingzhou, Qingzhou, and the already deserted Shaanzhou... And this policy, which later generations called the 'equal land system', was the policy that had been lost for hundreds of years and finally turned to the Sui and Tang systems after the collapse of the old system of Qin and Han Dynasties.
The essential.
All the three-chief system, large-scale land transfer, and even the imperial examination system originated from or served this policy. Without this policy, these systems are just trees without roots and water, because land is the most important thing in agricultural society.
means of production, and the ownership of land is the foundation of all systems and all relationships between people.
The collapse of the Qin and Han Dynasty systems, and the five hundred years of confusion in history that followed, were essentially the consequences of the annexation of land by rural tyrants. Compared with this, the solidification of the middle and upper classes seemed to be an inevitable result.
The key point of this policy is that the land is not owned by private individuals, but by the emperor. However, in the era of political clarity, ordinary people can receive land distribution from the government on a household basis based on the number of their families... In other words, land ownership has changed from powerful to powerful.
The place was divided into two, with the emperor at the top and the common people at the bottom. The mainstream of society became small farmers, and the powerful would gradually lose their dominance in this social structure.
Of course, it is natural that Jiang Gan did not understand or did not pay attention, because this policy was secretly hidden behind the farming system, and because everyone had to fill their stomachs, the farming system was imitated by the princes of the world early... This
Under such circumstances, no one paid attention to Gongsun Xun's large-scale farming and the dismantling of farming.
Moreover, Jiang Gan's argument is not completely wrong. Even if Gongsun Xun completes the land equalization policy, the big landowners will never disappear, and the policy will not be implemented once and for all. It does not mean that subsequent big landowners will no longer engage in land annexation, and the powerful
It will not be corrupted... But the problem now is that the Qin and Han systems have indeed reached their end. Historically, it started from the end of the Han Dynasty to the end, and it took five hundred years to find a new system, so the times need it anyway
It is a new system, and the decadence and backwardness of this new system do not need to be discussed by those who are currently in war and are completely helpless in the face of the old system.
From another perspective, if we can really overcome the five hundred years of confusion in one fell swoop and let the world directly enter the next stage of history, Gongsun Xun and his son will really be worthy of the conscience of the world. And in the current situation, I am afraid it is not impossible.
...After all, compared to the Northern Wei who completed this process in history, Gongsun Xun may not be less powerful in the Northern Wei. He may not be unable to do things that the Northern Wei can do, and he can even do things that the Northern Wei cannot do, and the Northern Wei cannot overcome them.
He has no difficulties at all.
The most critical point is that even from the perspective of Aunt Gongsun's commanding position, there were not many productivity improvements during the Sui, Tang, Qin and Han dynasties. It was really just a re-establishment of the system... that's all.
Of course, the mother and son are not so pure and noble... The land belongs to the "Emperor", and then the government allocates land to the common people for the "Emperor". Once the civilian villages in Youzhou are disbanded, from whom will the common people get it?
Those who belong to the land, don’t ask about self-knowledge.
Therefore, after the completion of this system, some people will be emperors as well as emperors... Although Jiang Gan was not clear about this, he seemed to have some vague understanding in his words.
"I really didn't expect that these scholars are so knowledgeable and yet so bold. They are not afraid of me, the most powerful person in the Central Plains, going to kill him. Don't they know that I am stationed here?" After listening, he went downstairs.
That Jiang Gan was talking eloquently, and in the upper floor of the righteous house facing the Suishui River through the window, there were piles of wine and food on the strategy of several cases, but there was a powerful man shaking his head and laughing, but it was Li Jin and Li Tui, the famous Yanzhou generals.
Of.
"I don't even know, how do they know?" The person sitting opposite Li Jin was a man with a more majestic figure and a green ribbon and silver seal hanging around his waist. He was none other than the famous general in the world, Zhuojun Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide.
"Besides, these scholars are crowned young and have almost grown up in troubled times. They have seen many things about life and death. Who would be afraid of anything?"
"That's true." Li Jin smiled and held up the bottle and said. "Regardless of whether they are bold or not, I never expected that moving to this town would actually lead to me meeting Yide... Just this theory is enough to make a fool of myself.
Big white!"
Zhang Fei laughed loudly, and the two of them raised their bottles to drink together.
After drinking a full bottle, Zhang Yide couldn't help but be curious: "Today we are friends, not enemies, but I am really confused, why are we retreating here?"
"Why?" Li Jin shook his head and smiled bitterly. "I didn't want to discuss this matter in front of Yide, but I couldn't avoid it...I am here, and it is related to one thing, which is Wei, who the boys downstairs were talking about just now.
General’s new policy!”
Zhang Fei rarely raised his eyebrows in confusion.
"That's it." Li Jin said bluntly. "After Captain Xiahou returned to Yanzhou, he talked to General Cao about the Lishuipei incident. General Cao, as well as Mr. Wenruo of the Xun family who was in charge of Yanzhou, although they treated General Wei without authorization,
There is a lot of talk about the separate state system and Yecheng University, but I still think highly of Du Tian and others' strategies to deal with powerful people...and my family is the home of the most powerful powerful people in Yanzhou, spanning three counties, with a household registration of tens of thousands
, if you can’t save my family’s land, this argument will be ridiculous.”
"You invited yourself to come here?" Zhang Fei's heart moved slightly. "To avoid embarrassment..."
"It was both a self-invitation, a follow-up, and an order." Li Jin became more and more helpless after hearing this. "Since my nephew died at the gate of Handan City, my eldest brother has also criticized me. Before, I only commanded troops abroad. At this time,
It would be awkward to go back and meet, and besides, General Cao is a benevolent man and wants to use me... So this trip out of town is partly due to General Cao and Xun Biejia's plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain, and partly because the eldest brother already dislikes me.
, and another third is an honest political strategy, this is Cao Gong's old hometown, he wants me to take advantage of the opportunity of Cao Taiwei's people in Xuzhou to live here!"
Zhang Fei suddenly realized: "This is actually a good thing!"
"It is both a good thing for public and private purposes." Li Jin sighed, but changed the subject under Zhang Yide's eyes. "On the other hand, Yide, I heard that you had sealed the gold and obtained the seal before leaving Qingzhou before the Dragon Boat Festival.
Shouldn't we have returned to Huainan long ago? Why are we still here now?"
"On my way back, I remembered something." Zhang Fei chuckled when he heard this. "In the past, when the Shaopi thieves in Huainan were in famine, they went north to Yuzhou and met a warrior named Xu. When I walked here, I felt that nothing happened, so this happened
I have been searching for my brother Xuande for a long time..."
"Have you ever found it?"
"Last year, your family was conquered by General Cao." Zhang Fei couldn't help but shook his head. "I heard that they also went to Chang'an together, and competed with Lu Fengxian at the Chang'an Guard General's Mansion. It is said that he lost the horse battle and returned naked.
He won the battle with Yibu, which attracted the old lady to praise him on the spot as a tiger idiot and bestow him with brocade clothes."
"But the one with a waist that's ten inches larger and a body that's eight feet tall?" Li Jin thought thoughtfully. "In that case, I've seen..."
"Let's not mention him." Zhang Yide shook his head more and more. "General Wei once said personally that both your general and my brother Xuande can win people. Once a warrior like this falls into the trap, it will be impossible for him to leave again, so he
I also tried to find other talents in Yuzhou and brought them to Huainan... Unexpectedly, I suddenly heard that my brother was getting married. I didn't dare to delay any longer, but I didn't want to retreat at the right time!"
Li Jin hesitated to speak, but just poured wine for the other party himself: "I'm running around in the rivers and lakes, so I'll get drunk today! Tomorrow morning, I'll send Yide across the Suishui River!"
"Stay drunk!" Zhang Fei also accepted the wine proudly.
The two of them drank without mentioning it for a while, but before they could have a good drink, they were disturbed by the noise downstairs... It turned out that Zhuyi City received urgent military information and went to the military camp to look for Li Jin, who was missing. They found this place along the way and heard Li Jin.
While drinking with Zhang Fei here, I neither dared to disturb him nor dared to leave easily. Instead, I disturbed many scholars here who were on their way to study.
Li Jin had no choice but to stop drinking with Zhang Fei, get up and go downstairs together to appease the scholars, and besides the merchants, he also inquired about the military situation.
"Report to the general!" The visitor leaned down in the brightly lit hall and said hastily. "Liu Biao of Xiangyang saw General Sun's fierce offensive, and his lips were dying and his teeth were cold. In the past few days, he suddenly repeated that he had stopped fighting with Yuan Shu, and there was a vague secret.
Assisting Yuan Gongluo... When General Sun was furious, he sent all the troops and horses from Runan, Yingchuan, and Nanyang. At the same time, he asked Duke Cao of Yanzhou for help. Cao Gong ordered that Runan, Yingchuan, and Nanyang have all their troops and horses, so there is no need to really
To send troops to help, I only asked the general to make some preparations and detach some troops and horses to escort some of the grain to the west. At the same time, he notified Liu Yuzhou's side south of the Suishui River and asked him to flank Liu Biao from Huainan!"
"I got it." Li Jin, who was half drunk, didn't take it seriously when he heard the words, and directly explained to Zhang Fei. "That Mr. Xunshi Wenruo had already guessed this, and I was also prepared... and it's beneficial
Brother De is here, which saves me a lot of trouble."
Zhang Fei, who was also slightly drunk, shook his head: "I know the matter, but my brother used to be based in Huainan, leaning on Tao Xuzhou on the left and Liu Jingzhou on the right. As a person, he may not take advantage of the situation."
"The land of Jingxiang will soon belong to Sun Polu." Perhaps after drinking a few glasses of wine, Li Jin said casually in the charity hall. "How can a scholar like Liu Biao control a tiger? I'm afraid this is the case.
Fan is simply following Sun Polu's wish! If so, our Lord Cao will win the six counties of Yanzhou in vain, and Sun Polu will roam the river, won't my brother fall behind others?"
Zhang Yide still shook his head: "If you fall behind others, you will fall behind others. How can we fight an unjust war?"
"In troubled times, we have to fight with each other to fight for the world. Isn't it useless to just uphold benevolence and righteousness?" Li Jin argued more and more.
"If you lose your loyalty in order to win the world, it will be even more useless." Zhang Fei replied proudly. "Since my brother has a foothold, he will not do this easily. As for Sun Polu, he took Jingxiang for himself.
yes."
The sergeants and merchants in the hall already knew the identities of the two of them. They were stunned when they heard the words. How could they dare to say anything? In the silence, Li Jin slowly nodded and stopped arguing... But the matter was indeed a big deal.
, Zhang Fei still wanted to cross the Sui River immediately to go to the half of Pei Kingdom held by Liu Bei on the south bank, so the two of them went out together regardless of the darkness to prepare to cross the river.
And when I walked out of the door, before I could get on my horse, I heard another noise behind me. It turned out that one of the scholars called me Xu Shu and Xu Yuanzhi, because the military service had resumed, and my mother was left alone in Yingchuan, but she wanted to be with her classmates in Nanyang.
Shi Tao, Meng Jian, and their new acquaintance Jiang Gan broke up and hurried to their homes in the northwest alone overnight.
When Zhang Fei saw this, he got off his horse, called the man, and asked Xu Shu to sit down on the horse. Xu Shu was so grateful that he bowed his head and thanked him on the spot.
After some interludes, Li and Zhang just walked together on the Suishui River and boarded the boat together at the ferry not far from the Yishe... The Suishui River was no more than a tributary of the Huaihe River, and when the water rose in summer, it was only two or three hundred paces wide, and they had reached the other side in a moment.
, while the people in the pavilion on the other side picked up Zhang Fei, Li Jin took advantage of the situation and handed over to Zhang Fei the Hebei horse he had specially brought across the river... But after he handed over the reins, he hesitated for a moment.
"What's the point of retreating?" Zhang Fei couldn't help laughing. "Aren't you willing to share a horse with me?"
"That's not what I meant. I don't want to give up my good deeds. The rivers and lakes are far apart, and the north and the south are divided into two parts. And wars have resumed. I wonder when we can meet again?" The stars reflected in the Suishui River. Li Jin hesitated while holding the reins of the horse.
Sincerely.
"You and I are fighting warriors. It's already a happy thing to see each other after the battle. Why do we need to act like a little girl?" Zhang Fei laughed even more.
"Forget it." Li Jin simply handed over the reins. "Be careful when riding a horse after drinking."
"When I was in Zhuojun, it was like I was born on a horse since I was a child." Zhang Fei disagreed, so he simply got on the horse and then said goodbye on the horse.
"Yide!" Seeing this, Li Jin stepped forward and held the opponent's hands. Under the torch next to him, his face became more sincere. "There were some things I said in the hall before that I couldn't say in front of those slanderous scholars, so just
At this time, there is also the intention to sow discord, but I really want to remind you... The hearts of people in power are the most changeable. You are selfless in your heart and admired by the world, but have you ever thought about it. If there is one person, your brother Liu Xuan
What should you do if you live under someone who has done something unethical and unjust?"
Zhang Fei was silent for a while, but then slowly replied: "I don't believe that my brother will do this."
"But even so, there is one thing that cannot be avoided!" Li Jin continued without hesitation. "General Wei lives in half the world and implements new policies. It seems that he has ambitions to conquer the world within ten years, and your brother
Xuande decided to seize Huainan in the name of his brother, but he actually participated in the Central Plains Alliance. In the future, there will be a person, General Wei, who annexes the Central Plains with the righteousness of the world, and your brother defends it as a prince. It can be regarded as a righteous battle... You live among them,
Why do you behave yourself?"
Zhang Fei laughed when he heard this: "Retreat, today in the Yishe, I listened to those boys discussing the general situation of the world, but I thought that under Handan City, General Wei also came into the city drunk after taking a bath, and then held my hand and discussed...
He said at that time that the general trend of the world is that if it is divided for a long time, it will be reunited and it will be divided for a long time. This is a certain number, and he must bring peace to the world in his lifetime, but he still has virtue and Xuande. What should we do then?"
"How do you answer?" Li Tuizhi was stunned for a moment.
"I said... Your Majesty once said that you should live up to the world; my brother Xuande said that you should live up to your Majesty; I also once said that you should live up to my brother and my Lord... Sun and Moon
Zhaozhao, people can only live up to their expectations if they love themselves. I don’t know what happened to you two, but I, Zhang Yide, will never do anything disrespectful. I don’t think you nor my brother will let me do anything disrespectful.
"Yes." Zhang Fei looked at Li Jin and replied slowly. "So the king sent troops to march eastward. After setting up the shield at the boundary bridge, he didn't even have time to think about the general's number, so he hurriedly returned north, but before he was about to reach Qingzhou,
, I specifically asked people to give me the General Seal of Righteousness, to use my loyalty... to retreat. Although these are troubled times, the world is not only about those who are strategist, or in other words, in troubled times, the word loyalty is needed! You see
Look at the people who really achieve something, don’t they all have a heroic spirit?”
Li Jin sighed for a moment and was about to pull away his hand: "It's my villain's heart..."
"That's not the case." Zhang Fei shook his hand and continued. "I actually know that you are in a difficult situation... Under Yuan Shao, it was taboo to hold clan soldiers for personal use, but under Cao Fenwu, he has gained the status of a subordinate general, and now he has
You are despised by your brothers, and the reason why they still use you is because you still have soldiers and horses, but you must listen to me before you retreat. No matter what, it doesn't matter whether it is to save the family or whether the general is brave, no matter what in troubled times
You must hold on to something and never give up your original intention because of temporary difficulties. If you really do that, you will be as ridiculous as a tree. How can a real man do this when he is born in the world?"
Li Jin nodded slowly, but his nose felt sour, and he almost shed tears... I thought that he was dedicated to protecting his people and working hard to fulfill his responsibilities as a general, but he was repeatedly suspected, and was reduced to the point of escorting grain and grass from the rear.
, it turned out that an old friend whom he had only met occasionally in several years knew about his difficulties.
Of course, Li Tuizhi was a veteran on the battlefield after all. After a little adjustment, he calmed down, then took a few steps back and bowed solemnly. When Zhang Fei saw this, he didn't say much. He knew that he was lenient towards others, so
Both Gongsun Xun and Liu Bei treated him leniently and favored others, which is why they ended up like this.
So, under the stars, he slightly cupped his hands, turned around and left.
——————I am the dividing line that divides into several pieces——————
"Zhang Fei and Li Jinshan flew south to return to Liu Bei. When they entered the Suishui River, they said: 'You will not let the north and the south down, but the north is strong and the south is strong. When the north and the south are fighting, where will you be?' Fei laughed and said: 'Your name is yours.
Advance and retreat, if one day the general trend is the same, and the advance and retreat are in a dilemma, what name should you have?" Jin could not answer, Fei Sui said: "I once heard from the north, the general trend of the world, if it is divided for a long time, it will be united and united for a long time, it will be divided. This is not done by human power, but it is with me.
When a man is born in troubled times, he should only hold on to his original intention. When he sees the north and the south, why should he ask about progress or retreat? 'I sighed deeply when I entered, crossed the water and gave me a horse and bowed before returning." - "Heroes of the Late Han Dynasty". Wang Can
