Chapter 033: Xiao Lu is sharp

After establishing the master-slave relationship, Yang Tong couldn't wait to invite Fang Xuanling to enter the inner hall to discuss matters, he came to this point today is all the credit of later generations, and has nothing to do with intelligence, due to his own disorderly entry, the current Great Sui has seriously deviated from the historical facts, according to this development, the advantage of the traverser will be exhausted sooner or later, and now there is one more mastermind who has left a name for the ages, and wants to hear his true opinion.

The two laughed and talked for a while, and Yang Tong said with a straight face: "According to Xuan Ling, what are the fatal shortcomings of my Great Sui now?" Xuan Ling has traveled the world for many years, and there must be a place where I can guide me. ”

"Your Highness actually asked about this?"

Fang Xuanling didn't expect Yang Tong to throw out such a grand proposition in the first conversation with him, but after all, he has a wide range of experience and a lot of knowledge, and if he understands this country, he thinks that he is not below anyone. It's just that he is facing the emperor's grandson after all, and some of the content will involve some taboos, he doesn't know whether he should say it, and if he does, Yang Tong will not want his own life.

Yang Tong understood that Fang Xuanling had taken care of it, so he simply picked up the topic first and said: "Since the Yongjia Rebellion, the Southern and Northern Dynasties have changed frequently, and none of them have died in the end, the Northern Wei Dynasty has been relatively long, but it has been divided into two by the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the Northern Qi Dynasty in less than a hundred years. The first emperor and the Ping Dynasty Zhou only got the title of 'Great Sui', while the Guanlong magnates got real benefits and military power. Ten in the world, the Great Sui only got three, the power of the local government is in the hands of the county families, from the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty to the present, these famous families only have family interests in their eyes, and they never care about the survival of any dynasty and country, and they will not care about the life or death of the people. Therefore, the cancer of the world is nothing more than the gate valve, and the poison of the gate valve is no more than Guan Long, in the time when the first emperor was in power, in order to make the world stable, he could only compromise again and again, so that the ambition of the Guanlong magnates became more and more intense with the increase of power. They were able to introduce the first emperor to replace the Northern Zhou, and they could also introduce others to replace the Great Sui, and after that, they could also use another person to take down the next dynasty...... Therefore, the Guanlongmen valve is not only the first trouble of my Great Sui, but also the biggest black hand of the change of dynasties! Guan Long is immortal, and the world is restless. ”

"The foundation of Guanlong's magnates is military weapons, and the 700,000 forbidden soldiers of that year were nominally imperial court troops, but starting from the brigade commander, all the officers were the sons of Guanlong's magnates, protΓ©gΓ©s, former officials, and fake sons! After the emperor's grandfather ascended the throne, in order to eliminate this army that could subvert the imperial court at any time, he adopted radical means, he tried to eliminate this army through war, and also expanded the territory, first launched the battle of Yiwu, Linyi, and Tuyuhun, and then relied on the two Goguryeo battles to consume this army belonging to the Guanlong magnates, which is currently achieved, but it also made the royal family and the Guanlong magnates to the point of not dying, plus the Goguryeo War made the people of the world miserable, and countless casualties, therefore, Although the emperor's grandfather had his wish fulfilled, he also completely lost the hearts of the people. ”

"The people are precious, the community is second, and the king is again. The people are higher than the sky, and their relationship with the court is like a boat and water, water can carry a boat, and it can also capsize a boat! The Great Sui lost the hearts of the people, just like a lonely boat in the desert, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't go far. ”

Fang Xuanling's eyes lit up, not because of Yang Tong's despair for Da Sui, but because of his casual sentence "Water can carry a boat, and it can also overturn a boat". He tasted it carefully in his heart, "Take the king as the boat, take the people as the water, the water can carry the boat, and it can also capsize the boat!" …… Wonderful, wonderful! ”

Sighing, Yang Tong said in a low voice: "The second problem of the Great Sui is actually the old land of the Northern Qi Dynasty, Zhai Rang, Gao Shida, Zhang Jincheng, Wang Bo, Huang Junhan, Dou Jiande and others are the representatives, but because these people are more brutal than the imperial court, it is so easy for the people to accept me." Tyrant's grandson, fortunately, I was lucky, which led to the stabilization of Hebei Province, I moved in a large number of victims of the Central Plains, mixed with the people of Hebei Province, and reused the children of the Han family, as long as I put the people first in everything in the future, those with different aspirations could not pull the army. To a certain extent, it was the brutality of Zhang Jincheng and Gao Shida that made today's Hebei Province. ”

Fang Xuanling was silent, he understood that Yang Tong was telling the truth, and he also knew that what Yang Tong said was reasonable, but this issue was too much involved, and he couldn't say anything. However, Yang Tong was able to think that the Guanlong magnates were the source of cholera, which was really remarkable, and he didn't seriously consider this.

Yang Tong said: "The third big trouble is the emperors of the Southern Dynasty, the north and the south have been divided for hundreds of years, and the regional unification is less than forty years, the estrangement of the people's hearts can not be resolved in one or two generations, even if the emperor's grandfather shows goodwill, those emperors always regard the Great Sui as an invader, they are just like the nobles of the six countries during the Qin Dynasty, in order to take power again, always thinking about restoration, if the world is safe, they especially dare not move." And now the beacon fire is everywhere, and the people everywhere are uprisings, just like Chen Sheng and Wu Guang at the end of the Qin Dynasty, and like the Yellow Turban Uprising at the end of the Han Dynasty, when the majesty of the Great Sui completely collapsed, these people must jump out to rebel. They have a deep-rooted influence in the south, and because the generals of the Great Sui countered violence with violence in the process of countering the rebellion, the Great Sui lost the support of the people. ”

"Originally, I had already suppressed the Wagang army, but due to Wang Shichong's rough law enforcement, Wagang gained profits, and the momentum became bigger and bigger day by day, and when they took off again, they were more able to deal with it than before."

"By that time, there were nobles of the Southern Dynasties in the south, the magnates of the Western Dynasty, the Wagang rebellion, and the Turkic deterrence in the north, interspersed with some civil uprisings supported by the nobles. Xuan Ling thought, what will happen to the next world? ”

"This ......" Fang Xuanling thought for a moment and said: "The current situation is like the Yellow Turban Uprising, many generals in the process of counterinsurgency, while deliberately using violent methods to ruin the reputation of the Great Sui, making the people disgusted with the Great Sui, while on the other hand, they are accumulating strength and money to prepare for the future. Once a nobleman rises up, these generals will inevitably take advantage of the situation, thus bringing the world into a pattern of princely separation. ”

And Wang Shichong is this kind of person, he has ruined the reputation of the court in the war from beginning to end, he has filled his own pockets, but the notoriety is carried by the Great Sui. In the Central Plains, he swung the butcher's knife at the Kwantung clan in the name of King Yan, with four intentions: first, he regarded Luoyang as his own territory, second, to separate the King of Yan and the Kwantung clan, and third, he was a laker, and the Kwantung clan, who regarded themselves as orthodox of the Han nationality, would not support him, so he took the opportunity to cut off future troubles; Fourth, accumulate money and food and train the army. ”

"It's okay when the saint is alive, if something happens to the saint, this person is very likely to follow Dong Zhuo's example, let King Yan ascend the throne first, and then coerce the world to order the princes."

Yang Tong nodded with a smile and deliberately asked, "Why didn't Xuan Ling say that he was Cao Cao?" ”

Fang Xuanling said disdainfully: "The belly of the Central Plains is already surrounded by enemies, the reason why Cao Cao can use this as a base to encroach on the world, and coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes is only one of them, second, Cao Cao has the righteousness of crusading against Dong Zhuo, so he has the help of the Shi clan, and he does not stick to one pattern and reuses the Han Shi, so that the talents are abundant, and third, Cao Cao himself is eloquent and majestic; And Wang Shichong is as brutal as Dong Zhuo, he can't be supported by the scholars, and he can't be supported by the people, but he wants to take the Central Plains, which is surrounded by enemies, as the foundation, which is really the way to die. ”

"Where's Wagang?"

Fang Xuanling laughed loudly: "Li Mi is both wise and brave, not willing to live under the people, and Zhai Rang's talent is not as good as him, and he stupidly divides the foundation into two, once the Wagang forces fight again, there will inevitably be contradictions between the two, and infighting has always been the beginning of the weakening of a country and a force." ”

"Presumably, Xuan Ling has also traveled a lot of places these days, and there are differences in the new policies of Hebei Province?"

"His Royal Highness Weichen has the same point of view, the cancer of the world is the selfish family lords and the leaders of the scholar clan, they are not extinguished, the world is restless, only by promoting the cold family, can we eradicate the problem of our clan. Weichen thinks that the new policy of Hebei Province is really a real move to benefit the country and the people, and there is nothing to add, as long as the righteousness and learning are combined with the imperial examination system, the land policy is combined with the apportionment into the mu, and then the money replaces the land as a reward, and the world will not shake the foundation of the national foundation, if the victory is implemented, it will inevitably become the foundation of the eternal world, Xuan Ling is willing to use his life's strength to assist His Royal Highness to lay the foundation of the great cause of the millennium, and cast a dynasty beyond the Han Dynasty. Fang Xuanling's eyes even showed a hint of loftiness.

"Haha, I didn't expect Xuan Ling to take such a look at these new policies!" Yang Tong said with a smile.

Fang Xuanling said with admiration: "Your Highness has a long-term vision, based on the blank Hebei Road, with the people at the bottom as the strength, step by step to control the people and the army, to the greatest extent to eliminate the worries of the people and soldiers, but without harming the interests of the heroes, it is definitely a pioneering act, Xuanling has benefited a lot along the way."

Yang Tong nodded, and said with a little seriousness: "But these are just the beginning, our future enemies are not only the major princes, but also the family lords of the whole world, if we can't unify the world, these new policies are meaningless." What should we do next? ”

Fang Xuanling said: "Grant benevolent government, love the people, train elite soldiers, govern the country and the army according to law!" The foundation is solid, and then seek Hedong, Guanzhong, seize a place to govern a place, and so the Central Plains princes are both defeated, and then swallow the Central Plains with the momentum of Mount Tai and pacify the south of the Yangtze River. If all of them are opposed, it is better, and it can eradicate the future troubles once and for all. This world has always been respected by strength, as long as there is strong strength in hand, His Royal Highness can do whatever he wants to deal with the door valve of this family, just make up an excuse. In short, there must be no compromise, otherwise, we will fall into the vicious circle of changing the dynasty. ”

The views of the two are actually the same, but Fang Xuanling is a real talent, looks at the problem from reality, and thinks of a solution, while he takes advantage of more than a thousand years of knowledge.

Yang Tong thought for a while and said, "So far, Xuan Ling knows my ambition, according to Xuan Ling's opinion, what should we focus on?" ”

Fang Xuanling said categorically: "Recruitment." ”

"Talent?"

Fang Xuanling said: "The new policy of Hebei Province is more fierce than the original imperial examination, and the criticism and resistance will be unprecedented, and His Royal Highness will not compromise with the family lords and scholars, so he will not get the sincere assistance of the family, even if someone works, it is also a trivial matter with low ability." ”

"What Xuan Ling said is that when I decided to do this, I didn't plan to ask for the help of the children of the family, so I appointed the children of the poor family as officials and founded Yixue."

"Talent is not a grain, without ten years of work, righteous learning can not produce talents. However, His Highness is in urgent need of talents to govern the world, so he must take the first step to seize the limited talents of the poor family, even if they are recruited to provide for them. If he takes Hedong Province in the future, he will need more than 2,000 officials, and if he does not prepare in advance, where will the officials who govern the local area come from? Sometimes, the war is changing rapidly, and if the Hetao area is conquered again, then there will be five or six thousand people to be used. ”

Yang Tong said: "Not bad! The key to the stability of the country is not those rare demons, ghosts, and geniuses, but the second-level talents who govern counties and counties, and these talents are the foundation of a country. With these people stabilizing the rear, demons, ghosts, and geniuses can rush to the front without distraction to expand their territory! ”

Fang Xuanling praised: "That's right! ”

Yang Tong handed the two rosters brought by Yang Guang to Fang Xuanling, and said, "There is Lao Xuanling, list Han Shiluo, and give priority to talents under forty." When they arrive in Hebei Province, we will set up a special training college, not to learn poetry, books and articles, but to learn the practical way of governing the people of the county. ”

Fang Xuanling happily agreed, and said: "The talented people among the reserve officials have long been absorbed by the major forces and have taken up positions in various places, and it is difficult for His Highness to summon them. The rest are all second- and third-level county talents, which can certainly stabilize their foundations, but they will not help much in development. Weichen believes that His Royal Highness should set up a recruitment hall dedicated to recruiting talents, and raise the threshold for entering the museum, so as to elevate the status of demon talents, ghost talents, and geniuses. ”

Since ancient times, talented people have been very confident and narcissistic, not only wanting to sell their talents to the emperor's family, but also unwilling to be promoted step by step. If you enter the Zhaoxian Hall through harsh conditions, you will naturally have fame, and you can also have a direct dialogue with Yang Tong and ascend to the sky in one step.

Fame and fortune.

Fang Xuanling's suggestion can be said to be directly aimed at the hearts of the people.

It's worth it! It is necessary not only to make a big deal out of it, but also to use public opinion to spread it all over the world.
