Chapter 194: Yang Biao Xunzi
"I really didn't expect that my stupid uncle would be able to become a hegemon! It's a pity that I was born at the wrong time, if I was born ten years early, there should be a place for me in this world! Holding the letter in his hand, Yang Xiu said with some unwillingness.
The heart is higher than the sky, and the life is thinner than paper, what he said is Yang Xiu. Living under the protection of Yang Biao, I didn't learn much about great wisdom, but a lot of small wisdom.
"Dezu, just say this to you, you are not suitable to be the master of the people." Yang Biao said expressionlessly.
"Father, why is that?" Yang Xiu asked with a frown. He thinks that his father underestimates him too much and is full of prejudice.
"I will give you enough money, food, and grass now, so that you can find a place in the world as a foundation to compete for domination in the world, do you dare to do it?" Yang Biao did not answer directly, but asked in a different way.
Father laughed. If there is chaos in the world and there is a lord everywhere, how can I start anew? Is it possible to take the barren Xiliang or the merge state as the foundation? It is impossible to win the world in this way. Yang Xiu glanced at his father strangely, and this situation could basically be seen by anyone with a little eyesight.
Yang Biao smiled coldly: "Then Yuan Highway can dominate the world by occupying Jiangdong?" You know that the land of Jiangdong is more than divided and the hegemony is insufficient, but Yuan Highway doesn't know? Could it be that Yuan Highway is stupid? Don't let Huainan go to the rich place, but go to that remote place in Yangzhou? ”
"Dezu, you're too self-righteous!"
Yang Xiu was stunned for a moment, and then argued with some excitement: "What does my father mean by this?" I'm just explaining the situation. And Yuan Shu's move is really stupid, if I would have chosen Jizhou or Yuzhou at the beginning, and then quickly unified Hebei or the Central Plains, and then dominated the world, it was easy. Therefore, Yuan Highway chose the wrong one from the beginning, and he gave up the best opportunity to quickly dominate the world. ”
Yang Xiu has always looked down on Yuan Shu, an uncle, thinking that he is useless, just a good tire. Regarding Yuan Shu's abandonment of Yuzhou, he only felt that his uncle was really stupid, he couldn't see the situation clearly, and gave up such a rich place in Yuzhou, but chose the poor countryside of Yangzhou.
Listening to Yang Xiu's rebuttal, Yang Biao's face became more and more ugly: "Do you really think that all the princes and families in the world are stupid?" Can you see that they can't see it? You can think of anything your uncle's advisors can think of. I can tell you clearly that if Yuan Shu raised troops in Jizhou, the current situation would not be much better than Yuan Benchu. And it is now Hebei, with Gongsun Zhan under the control, Yuan Benchu will definitely not be able to unify the four states of Hebei within five years. ”
"And if Yuan Shu raises troops in Yuzhou, if he doesn't grow, he will already be strong, and the surrounding princes will inevitably attack him in groups. Yuan Shu is now just trapped in Jiangdong, relying on the danger of the Yangtze River to protect himself. If he had chosen to take Yuzhou as his foundation, his current ability to cause trouble would have been destroyed or run away by the surrounding princes. Do you really think that you can do whatever you want if you have a high starting point? The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it! ”
It is rare to have a balance between daughters, and it is not a good thing to emerge too early in troubled times. There is basically only one ending that comes first, which is the precursor of the king. Like Yuan Shu was attacked by a group in history, it is certainly one thing to be called the emperor, but Yuan Shu's excessive power at that time was the main reason.
During the Warring States Period, the reason why Qiang Qin was able to annex the Six Kingdoms without delay was because of the existence of Hangu Pass.
It was not that the Six Kingdoms had not attacked the Qin State without a unified unity, but because the Hangu Pass was difficult to capture, and it was basically a necessary place to enter the Qin State, it failed.
Qiang Qin has Hangu Pass to protect himself, so that he can be so strong and not weakened, and have the opportunity to break the six countries one by one.
If Yuan Shu had chosen Yuzhou at the beginning, with his strong foundation and power, coupled with the killing of the emperor, he would have been attacked by Cao Cao and others on a charge. Two fists are hard to beat four hands, and the best ending of Yuan Shu at that time is estimated to be to give up Yuzhou to protect himself and retreat to Jiangdong. After all, although Yuzhou is strong, there is no danger to defend, and it is surrounded by land.
The path chosen by Yuan Shu was destined for him to stand on the cusp of the storm, so he chose Jiangdong, a marginal place that was easy to defend and difficult to attack, from the beginning.
What if you chose Yuzhou? In the end, he will either compromise with some people and go against his original wishes, or he will still have to give up Yuzhou in disgrace.
So it's not that Yuan Shu is stupid, but that Yang Xiu is too self-righteous and thinks too simply.
"And if everything is as you say, then it must be Yuan Benchu who will dominate the world in the end! I can tell you unequivocally that the battle for world domination is never so simple. Time and region are important, but the real success depends on ability. Although Yuan Benchu said that he seized the opportunity, he may not be able to have the last laugh. ”
Yang Biao really can't imagine that his son would be so stupid, he really thinks that fighting the world is a game! If the fight for the world depends on the heritage and territory, then what else to fight? Just give the world to the Yuan family!
The two strongest states in the world, Jizhou and Yuzhou, are basically from the Yuan family, what do you compare?
"Now that Guanzhong and Xiliang are leaderless, it is not difficult for you to become the power of Xiqin, why don't you dare to try it?"
Under Yang Biao's sharp eyes, Yang Xiu only felt that he was unable to argue, and his slightly open lips were white but he didn't know how to explain.
Seeing his son look so depressed, Yang Biao sighed: "Don't say that Xiliang is sparsely populated and chaotic, these are all excuses. Whoever has achieved great things, hasn't he gone through hardships and hardships? At that time, Gaozu became the emperor, and he only relied on the land of Bashu, which was closed to traffic and difficult to enter and exit. ”
Although Yizhou is easy to defend and difficult to attack, it is known as the land of abundance, but it is indeed not a good place suitable for hegemony in the world. The terrain is too steep, and it is very inconvenient to transport troops and food, so what's the use of not being able to take out food? Zhuge Liang's six exits to Qishan all failed, and the shortcomings of Yizhou's difficulty in entering and exiting are also an important reason.
"So, Dezu. After all, you are not a master! Because you're so 'smart' that you can only be a strategist at best. You will always only see that the general trend has passed, the time is not there, and there is no indomitable perseverance and indomitable courage at all. It is impossible for a person who looks forward and thinks about the future to become a hero! ”
Yang Xiu stood in place. Yang Biao's words were like thunder, hitting his fragile and arrogant heart hard, making him difficult to calm down for a long time.
When Yang Biao saw Yang Xiu like this, he was also extremely unbearable in his heart, and sighed lightly in his heart: Son, don't blame your father. In the future, the Father will not be by your side, and everything will depend on you.
If it weren't for the fact that this son was going to leave him and go to Jiangdong, Yang Biao really didn't want to hit him like this. After all, who hasn't had a time when they were young and frivolous? Yang Xiu is still young, and it is normal to be arrogant, and if he experiences more things in the future, he will naturally become more sophisticated and calm like himself.
It's a pity that time is running out, and now there is no time for him to grow freely. would rather destroy Yang Xiu's self-confidence, and Yang Biao would also get rid of his arrogance. Otherwise, with Yang Xiu's character in Jiangdong, I'm afraid it would be really difficult to get along.
After all, Yuan Shu is a domineering master, and Yang Xiu likes to be smart, so if he really annoys Yuan Shu, the consequences are unpredictable. That's why Yang Biao, who has always been fond of Yang Xiu, was so ruthless and said these words before he left.
Yang Biao slowly walked past Yang Xiu, who looked sluggish, and left. Only a lost figure remains.
Walking out of the door and looking at the beautiful sunset in the distance, Yang Biao murmured softly: "Yuan Highway, since you have such a measure, you shouldn't let me down!" ”
The Han Dynasty has gradually declined, and Yang Biao's most optimistic among the princes in the world is not Yuan Shao, but Yuan Shu, who has the courage to choose to single-handedly dash the last hope of the Han Dynasty.
