Chapter 333
Xingzhe killed General Miao Jiang, the Tang Dynasty won a complete victory, there was not a single prisoner, and all the Miao Jiang soldiers were killed.
The soldiers sorted out everything that was still usable on the battlefield and brought it back.
That night, Xingzhe held a celebration banquet that lived up to expectations, and the soldiers seemed to be tireless, they didn't rest last night, and I didn't rest during the day today.
Now, these soldiers are completely convinced of Xingzhe and convinced. It's not just because Xingzhe always holds celebration banquets, but also because Xingzhe has led them to two battles in total, and each one is a victory.
This is enough to prove Xingzhe's ability, for the soldiers, eating, drinking and having fun are secondary, and being able to win the battle is the most important thing.
Because only if they win the battle, they will have a higher chance of surviving, if they lose their lives, where can they enjoy eating, drinking, and having fun early?
Therefore, although the vast majority of these soldiers are people who have never read books, they can distinguish between priorities and priorities, and they can see more clearly than some people with very high official positions.
Xingzhe was standing alone on the castle tower again, the wine jug next to him was empty, and there was still some meat left, but Xingzhe didn't want to eat it anymore.
Xingzhe looked at the moon in the sky, and remembered the scene of the river of blood yesterday, face-to-face slashing, there will be casualties on both sides, even if Xingzhe and they won a big victory, there were also many casualties.
"Hey......"
Xingzhe sighed and shook his head, not knowing what to say, there were many things in his heart, but he just couldn't say it.
"Wu Gexi was rhinoceros armor, and the car was wrong and short-handed. The sun covers the enemy like a cloud, and the arrows and fallen soldiers compete for the first. Ling Yu staggered for the rest of his life, and his left side was injured and his right blade was injured. The haze is two rounds and four horses, and the jade is beating the drum. The days are full of power and anger, and they are all killed and abandoned in the wilderness. Can't get in and out, and the plains are far away. With a long sword, he carried the Qin bow, and his head was not punished. Cheng is both brave and martial, and he is strong and invincible. ”
In the end, Xingzhe could only recite a poem "Nine Songs: National Martyrdom" softly, a thousand words, I don't know where to start, only poetry, know what I mean.
The warrior held Wu Ge and was wearing rhino armor, and the chariots of the enemy and the enemy were staggered and the swords were connected. The banner covers the sky and the sun, and the enemy is like a cloud, and the flying arrows are falling, and the soldiers are fighting bravely. The enemy invaded our ranks, and the left horse was killed, and the right horse was wounded by a knife. The two wheels of the military chariot were deeply stumped by the four horses, and the commander raised his drumstick and slammed the drums of war. The gods were furious, and the soldiers of the whole army sacrificed their lives in the vast wilderness. Soldiers, never return, a long way to the Lost Plains. Wearing a long sword and a strong bow to fight on the battlefield, the first body is separated from the ambition will never yield. Truly brave, tenacious and heroic, always strong and resolute and not humiliated. Although people die, the gods are not lost after all, and your soul is worthy of the heroes among ghosts!
"General, you're alone."
Lin Xiao walked up with a bowl of wine in his hand, he was not very good at drinking, so he rationed himself every time, a bowl of wine, no more.
Others drank all of them in a bowl of wine in a few gulps, but Lin Xiao's bowl of wine could start from the banquet and drink until the end of the party. Whoever comes to toast, he's the bowl.
Sometimes Xingzhe is very curious, how did Lin Xiao manage a bowl of wine for so long? Could it be that it will still come out when it is full after drinking?
"Don't you celebrate with the soldiers? Every time I run up alone, I want to blow the wind. ”
Xingzhe joked.
"General, I feel that there is a very big difference between you and us, and I always feel that there is a difference, but I can't say it."
Lin Xiao looked at Xingzhe with doubts and confusion in his eyes.
"Different? What's the difference? We both have two eyes, a nose, two ears and a mouth, and there seems to be no difference except that I am a little handsome. ”
Xingzhe pretended not to know what Lin Xiao would say, just run the train with nonsense.
"I always feel that you and we are not from the same era, general, I have never heard of many of your ideas, and I can't understand many of the words you have said."
Lin Xiao said very seriously.
"You think I'm through the emperor Wang Mang, those you don't understand are the dialects of my hometown, each place has its own dialect, this is a feature. As for what you say, I'm just talking nonsense, you won't take it seriously, will you? ”
Xingzhe spread his hands, with a childish expression that you think too much, I have to say that Xingzhe's acting skills are really in place, and it's a pity that he didn't go to the drama academy.
"Crossing the Emperor...... Wang Mang? Who's that? ”
Lin Xiao's eyes were full of stars again, and he couldn't keep up with Xingzhe's rhythm again, he drove too fast, and the little train was ......
"Yes...... The character in a book I read before said that this emperor had a lot of advanced thoughts and consciousness, and there were many inventions, so people called him the Emperor of Time. ”
Xingzhe can only explain it like this, no matter what, just find a way to tell the lie later.
Many of Wang Mang's practices are like modern people, so many experts have studied whether Wang Mang is a traverser, although there is some evidence, but most of it is just speculation.
On New Year's Day in 9 A.D., Wang Mang usurped the throne and became the founding monarch of the first dynasty.
Wang Mang became the emperor, and under the guise of retro reform, he ordered to change the law. First, the nation's land was changed to "Wang Tian" and was not allowed to be bought or sold; second, slaves and maids were called "private persons" and were not allowed to be bought or sold; Third, we need to assess prices and reform the currency system.
Some of the policies introduced by Wang Mang during the reform period violated objective laws.
For example, under the "Wangtian system", land throughout the country will be nationalized and redistributed according to the well-field system. Here, Wang Mang was intent on immediately eliminating land annexation, but this policy violated the law of development of feudal private land at that time, which doomed it to failure. As a result, it was not able to fulfill the promise that the landless would receive land according to the standard, and it also threatened the privileged interests of the bureaucratic and large landowners.
Another example is the restoration of the original currency that has been eliminated by history, which directly violates the law of monetary development and only increases the obstacles to the circulation of money.
Second, reform is too hasty and too fast, and it is easy to adopt some excessive policies and measures to the detriment of the interests of the majority of the people, resulting in the loss of the social foundation of reform.
For example, Wang Mang changed the slave and maid to "private belonging" and banned the sale of slaves and maids, the original intention was to stop the expansion of the number of slaves and maids and solve the increasingly serious problem of slaves and maids in society. But this measure was also opposed by the upper self-owned slave families and the landless people, because the prohibition of slave and maid trade not only offended the interests of the bureaucracy and the wealthy, but also cut off the peasants who had lost their land and had no way out to sell themselves into slavery.
Third, Wang Mang also adopted administrative measures to enforce inappropriate reform measures, which caused widespread dissatisfaction.
For example, in the currency reform, the small is easy to be big, and the light is exchanged for the heavy, and the large spring minted is no more than 12 baht, which is only 2.4 times that of the five-baht coin, but it should be used as 50 five-baht coins, and the small spring that weighs one baht should be equal to 1 five-baht coin. With the existence of such an unreasonable ratio, it is difficult to prohibit the theft of private money. Wang Mang had no choice but to impose harsh laws such as "killing money by privately minting money" and "one family minting money, five families sitting on it, and not being a slave or maid" to forcibly prohibit it. However, policy coercion is irresistible to the laws of the economy. Therefore, no matter how much Wang Mang strengthens political coercion, there are still orders that cannot be followed, and there are prohibitions that do not stop. After all, the reform measures that are taken for granted will not be implemented, and the unrealistic and indiscriminate reforms will also cause social chaos.
In the third year of the emperor, Wang Mang saw that the peasants of the Quartet had revolted one after another, Wang Kuang, Lian Dan and other battles were unfavorable, knowing that the world was defeated, and the matter was exhausted, so he decided to send the customs doctor Si Guoxian and other branches of the world, except for the prohibition of Jingtian, slaves, Shanze, and Liuzhen, since the accession to the throne, the edict was not convenient for the people to return it, and the Lingling soldiers rose before they could do it, and the new dynasty perished.
In all respects, Wang Mang really doesn't look like a person who should exist in that era, and his reforms are indeed too advanced.
Just like Xingzhe, Xingzhe is not a person of this era, so many of his ideas and practices are incomprehensible in Lin Xiao's eyes.
