Chapter 145: Enlightening Wisdom
Xu Du, the former Prime Minister's Mansion.
He Yan, Qin Lang, and Xiahou Ba sat on their knees in the courtyard in front of the corridor, and Cao Pipan sat on the straw mat in the corridor, wearing an open-sleeved maroon silk coat, holding the music table in both hands and studying it carefully.
There was a stack of silk books in front of him on the red moire lacquer plate, and after reading the last one, Cao Pi wanted to pick up the folding fan and shake it off, but it was obvious that the palms of his hands were sweaty and he couldn't feel the heat.
Looking up at the bright sunshine in the courtyard in the afternoon, the heat was pressing, but I really didn't feel the heat: "Tian Xiaoxian really rode a thousand?" ”
Qin Lang said in a deep voice: "The minister and the Yue cavalry captain Xue Qiao's department watched the battle on the east bank of Lishui, and saw with his own eyes that this person rode alone to break through the formation, even broke the seven battalions of soldiers and horses supervised by Changdiao, beheaded Changdiao in the array, captured the general Zhuge Qian, and forced the landing of more than 3,000 officials. Later, he led 300 knights to the north, counterattacked Zhang Pu with more than 1,000 horsemen, killed nearly 700 of my knights, and Zhang Pu and other more than 100 horsemen were defeated by this person. ”
"When it was dark, this person was hit by dozens of arrows, the men and horses were tired, and the two armies collected troops one after another, and General Zhennan did not notice it for a while, so he was captured."
Cao Pi listened to his own oral statement, and his face was amazed: "In the past, Guan Yunchang beheaded Yan Liang, and he was known as a god and a man in the army; Later, Chen Hou led the cavalry to break into battle, like a celestial. Imada Takasen is like an overlord resurrected, can there be a plan for me? ”
Xiahou Ba spoke: "Your Majesty, the minister sees that this person is arrogant and self-contained, if he is not poor, I am afraid he will not change his course." After fifteen years of servant Rong, what he saw was that he would kill the fierce, and Tian Xiaoxian was the first to be promoted. The Huya Army under his command is skilled in tactics and sharp in equipment, no less than my armed and defensive armies. ”
Xu Chu was the general of Wuwei, supervising the three armies of Wuwei, namely the Wuwei Army, the Left Guard, and the Right Guard.
Cao Pi picked up another piece of music at this time, and when he looked at it for the second time, he was still a little frightened.
After the truce and the war last night, Xiahou Shang's department retreated more than ten miles to rest, and in the middle of the night, there was a camp roar, and the officials who woke up in their sleep ran for their lives, mixed with each other, affecting three battalions, and more than 1,000 dead.
And the cause was just a soldier shouting in a dream, 'Tian Xin is coming', which woke up more people, and the military officer failed to press it at the first time, which led to this incident that seriously affected morale.
On such a front line, soldiers can no longer be forced to come forward to fight, and it has reached the point where it is necessary to rest.
Weighing the gains and losses in his heart, Cao Pi said: "Tian Xiaoxian wants to redeem Pang Shiheng's wife and daughter and a horse with Wenlie, which is a trivial matter. Wen Lie loves horses, and I give Wen Lie two more great horses. and the remains of the Ma Mengqi clan are also permitted. I withdrew another 200 catties of gold and 300 catties of silver to redeem the heads of the officials. ”
"Also, when you go to the enemy camp, you must warn Yu Wenze that you can learn the swordsmanship taught by Tian Xiaoxian."
Xiahou Ba and the three of them got up to retreat, but Cao Pi opened his mouth to keep Qin Lang and He Yan to dine together, and the three of them dined under the porch.
Cao Pi handed a newly made folding fan to Qin Lang: "Who can defeat Tian Xiaoxian?" ”
Qin Lang spread out the folding fan and saw that the poem with a new title was the "Seven Steps Poem" that Tian Xin said to Cao Xiu before the battle.
On the side, He Yan turned his head to take care of him, he and Qin Lang had no official positions, they had never been in office, and they were barely considered to be members of the clan.
Seeing that He Yan, who was frivolous in the past, was also silent, let alone the steady Qin Lang.
Cao Pi said in a slightly distressed tone: "The matter of my siblings has been rumored to laugh at the enemy country, I don't want to be despised by Tian Xiaoxian, and I don't want to upset my mother, and I am distressed by Ziwen and Zijian's mind." Uncle Ping and Yuan Mingru also have a brotherhood with me, would you like to go to Ziwen and Zijian? ”
He Yan immediately breathed a sigh of turbidity, his face was happy, and he caught a glimpse of Qin Lang frowning and thinking from time to time, and then restrained his smile.
Seeing this, Cao Pi looked at Qin Lang: "Yuan Ming is serious, are you willing to go to find Ziwen?" ”
Qin Lang solemnly said: "The minister thinks that the Marquis of Yanling has repentance, and Uncle Ping can go." Linzi Marquis, it is advisable for His Majesty to write to recruit him, and Shengchen and other tens of millions of words. ”
Cao Pi bowed slightly, and handed out the folding fan in his hand: "Yuan Ming took this fan to see Zijian, today's state affairs are difficult, I and his siblings, we should be in the same boat." I should have honored my father's wishes, but I shouldn't have been reckless. ”
No written notes, only verbal apologies.
Qin Lang caught the heavy folding fan with both hands, and he couldn't cry or laugh in his heart.
During the Battle of Xiangfan, Cao Cao appointed Cao Zhi to supervise the troops to rescue Cao Ren, hoping that the pattern of the clan commander could be continued.
Wei's military power, the division of the system is very clear, and there is always nothing to do with the family.
The governor level has always been filled by the clan and the Xiahou clan; The following is the governor of the five sons, the five sons of the good general Li Lejin is the founder of the first day of the business to recruit thousands of soldiers, Xu Huang, Zhang He, Zhang Liao are all led troops to surrender, Yu Ban inherited Bao Xin Taishan soldiers.
There are two kinds of generals and captains at all levels below the rank of governor and Wuziliang general, one is the armed leader who surrendered, and the other is the Qian Pei Township Party and the Hanmen warriors.
In particular, Xu Chu's Hushi, who followed Cao Cao to experience war, learn war, and were promoted to lieutenants and captains; There are so many middle and high-level military officials from Hushi, and there are even more generals and colonels from Qian Peihanmen, so the military power is currently very stable.
Now most of Cao Zhang's old army has been purged, and Cao Zhi has lost most of his henchmen since Ding Yi's brother was killed.
In terms of actual harm, it is already very low at present, and if it is activated, many henchmen will be raised over time.
This is inevitable, whoever occupies the upper position can raise a large number of henchmen.
Since the implementation of the Jiupin Zhongzheng system, although Cao Pi has become the emperor, Chen Qun and Sima Yi have not shown the ability he expected. For example, to block Ma Chao and Tian Xin's soldiers, the influence and strategy of the family are a little weak in the face of the two martial arts groups who are determined to take revenge.
On the contrary, it was Jia Xu and Cheng Yu, who were old ministers who couldn't walk, who were old and reliable, and with the attitude of not hesitating to fight a civil war, they scared Zang Ba and successfully solved the hidden dangers of Qingxu.
It is also thanks to the courage of clan generals like Xiahou Shang and Cao Xiu that they blocked Ma Chao and Tian Xin in Wankou and did not let them go deep into the Central Plains.
Now Cao Chang is the only one who dares to resist Tian Xin on the battlefield and has a chance to block it.
Only by putting Cao Zhang in the army can the officials no longer complain and muster the courage to fight.
Otherwise, this camp roar will be a symptom, and in the future, there will be a series of bad things such as camp roars, mutinies, and defections.
Forcing the sergeant to fight an invincible enemy, the sergeant did not want to die, so he had to find another way.
Rather than delay and corrupt the situation, it is better to give in as soon as possible, establish the already powerful clan, and let them fight.
This is not only Cao Zhang and Cao Zhi, but also Cao Pi's other dozen brothers behind these two, as well as more than a hundred nephews. Loosen the restrictions of the clan, the clan relatives will naturally work hard to make progress if they have ambitions, whose upward space is this squeezing?
As for the sudden promotion of Cao Zhang and Cao Zhi, will it cause dissatisfaction among Sima Yi, Chen Qun, Sun Zi, Liu Fang and others...... Will Cao Pi care about the feelings of these people?
The emperor has already become the emperor, the main force of the Han army has gone east to conquer Sun Quan, Ma Chao and Tian Xin are about to retire, is it possible that the Yingchuan clan who got on the thief ship and was covered in mud still wants to turn around and become a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty?
The loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty have died, and now the only ones living in the Great Wei are the founding fathers of Wei.
Qin Lang and He Yan left, Cao Pi returned to the living room, and wrote "Seven Steps Poem" on the screen with a pen, and in the middle of the screen was the innate Tai Chi Bagua diagram.
After writing the poem, Cao Pi stared at the Taiji diagram, which seemed to be running slowly, and the two forces of black and white were chasing each other.
In the black one, the faces of Sima Yi, Chen Qun, Zhong Xuan, Wang Lang, Hua Xin, Lu Yu and others appear from time to time; In the white one, Xiahou Shang, Cao Zhen, and Cao Xiu also have the faces of Cao Zhang and Cao Zhi.
Emperor Cao Pi of the Great Wei Dynasty, wisdom plus one.
"Wonderful, wonderful."
Raise your hand and caress the Taiji diagram on the screen, which is very mysterious in itself, and the innate and acquired gossip of derivation and collocation is even more incomprehensible.
And many scholars, Yi scholars, and metaphysicians have speculated that Tian Xin has a more complete Taiji diagram in his hand, which is enough to deduce the heavenly machine.
Maybe Jiangdong doesn't have a so-called traitor at all, it was calculated by Tian Xin's divination!
Perhaps, Tian Xin has already comprehended the mysteries of heaven and man, and his force has tended to the limit of manpower, or he may have stepped into the realm of immortals.
A complete Taiji diagram must contain the truth of the universe.
But how do you get it?
