Chapter 455: The Destruction of the Wei State

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty poured all his strength into expelling the Xiongnu, and although the battle was won, the entire Han Dynasty was also hollowed out, and it is really difficult to comment on the success or failure of the gains or losses. Now, Liu Hou has simply set up an incentive system, which can easily solve the scourge of the grassland without paying money or food, nor with human lives.

Although this solution is not a matter of one or two days, or even a year or two, as long as these systems exist, there will be a steady stream of warriors who will slaughter the steppe with red eyes, exterminate the nomads of the steppe, and take back their land, livestock, gold and silver treasures, and population.

In this process, the population of the Han people will not be consumed, but only the Xianbei people, Karasuma people, Qiang people, Turkic people and other foreign races, they will be killed, or transformed into mercenaries of the Han Dynasty, or taken captive into slaves who work hard in various labor places, in short, they will continue to be consumed, and the number of ethnic groups will continue to shrink, and some ethnic groups will even eventually disappear completely in the long river of history.

After making a plan to vigorously develop the iron and steel industry and the cement industry and make every effort to build cement warships, everyone soon decided to establish an incentive mechanism for external expansion with the "Military Merit Department" as the core, and a grassland strategy of razing and razing.

The meeting lasted for three days before the strategic guidelines were preliminarily decided. Liu Hou was also too tired to become ~ humanoid, and hid in the Jingzhou Mansion for three days before recovering his strength.

Fortunately, as the emperor, he only needs to set the general direction for everything, improve it concretely, and implement it with a large number of officials. Zhuge Liang is one of the top internal affairs talents in the world, with him, the prime minister, presiding over the overall situation, and with the assistance of Sima Yi, Guo Youzhi, Deng Zhi, Buqi and other capable officials, Liu Hou can be his hands-off shopkeeper with confidence.

After resting, Liu Hou inspected Jingzhou for many days, and the key places to inspect were cement factories, shipyards, naval forces, and other places related to the felling of Wu. Liu Hou's inspection was not just a formality, but a detailed understanding of the construction of these places, and also interacted with the lowest soldiers and craftsmen, patiently listened to their voices, and helped them solve some practical problems, fully demonstrating the image of an emperor close to the people.

By the time Liu Hou ended his trip to Jingzhou and led his ministers back to Xuchang, it was already more than a month later. In the past month or so, the war in Guanzhong finally came to an end, and Wei officially withdrew from the stage of history.

On that night, on the night when Zhang Bao gave an ultimatum, countless Wei civil and military officials poured into the palace to persuade Cao Pi to surrender. Cao Pi smashed countless cases and antique ceramics in the palace, and injured and killed several palace maids and eunuchs.

However, no matter how he lost his temper, no matter how unwilling he was, the cruel reality was in front of him. The enemy outside the city has already invaded the city, and depending on the situation, the enemy has the ability to attack the city at any time and capture him alive, the last emperor.

The city is even more unbearable, although he is in the palace, but he also knows that the city has been in chaos, outside the gongs and drums are noisy, shouting and killing, screaming, crying and crying, it should be that there are constantly people in chaos.

According to the report sent by Zhi Jinwu, there have been four attacks on the military camp tonight, five incidents of attempting to seize the city gate and dedicate the city to the Shu army, and several other disturbances.

In fact, what worries Cao Pi even more is that in the palace~, eighty percent of the civil and military officials have knelt outside the palace all night, begging him to abdicate and surrender. These people put the most pressure on him.

The divine right of the monarch is actually the emperor himself talking to himself. Where does the emperor's power come from? On whose basis is the power of the emperor to be carried out? It is by relying on these civil and military officials outside the palace and the local officials scattered all over the world.

Without these officials, what is an emperor? What is an emperor? The emperor is nothing! The emperor is just an ordinary man with two eyes and one nose. Without a huge bureaucracy, the emperor was a single commander, and his ownership of power was nothing more than a joke.

Just like in the finale of "Dragon Babu", Murong Fu thought that he was the emperor and felt good about himself sitting on the high platform to accept everyone's worship. No matter how good he felt about himself, kneeling before him were just a few children who had been bought with candy, and there was no bureaucracy loyal to him, and even if he called himself emperor, he was just a wretched worm, a joke in the eyes of others.

Cao Pi is now facing this situation, he is panicking, the bureaucrats who he didn't look down on very much before are now forcing the palace outside the palace, and the officials who he could kill and take away in the past are now in turn to his army.

He had never felt that it was very important to be a civil and military official before, but now he finally knew that that was the source of his strength and the backer he could rely on. Now, this backing mountain has finally collapsed, and after the collapse, it will smash him head-on, trying to smash him to the ground.

Among the "Three Princes", Situ ~ Hua Xin strongly abdicated and surrendered, Sikong Wang Lang took leave to hide at home and refused to come out, only Taiwei Zhong Xuan was still supporting him. At this critical moment, the role of the "three publics" is undoubtedly very important, and if these "three publics" can work together and give full play to their role as mainstays, they may still be able to turn the tide.

After all, the "Three Princes" are the example of the ministers. Now, however, if there is a vote, one vote in favor, one vote against, and one abstention, the two sides are tied. Wang Lang's vote is very important! Cao Pi sent people to ask Wang Lang to come out and express his position several times, but Wang Lang just said that he couldn't get sick.

Later, Cao Pi was in a hurry, and sent a eunuch with a holy decree and a royal envoy to invite Wang Lang, and he instructed the accompanying "wrestlers" to carry Wang Lang over. In the end, Wang Lang was forcibly carried over, and Cao Pi forced him to express his position, but he didn't say a word, just silently took out a letter and presented it to Cao Pi.

This letter was written by Zhang Bao to Wang Lang, and the general content was that his son Wang Su was now a guest in his military camp, and was warmly received by himself, and drank a few more glasses, but now he was as drunk as mud, so Zhang Bao stayed with him, and planned to let him rest until after noon tomorrow before letting him return to the city.

At noon, it is a sensitive time, that is, the ultimatum time given by Zhang Bao, and a discerning person will know what Zhang Bao means at a glance, that is, to detain your son, wait for you to express your position, and see what you do within the ultimatum time? If you don't behave well, hum, be careful of your son's head.

It turned out that Wang Su volunteered to send an envoy to Shu Ying that night, intending to persuade Zhang Bao with his incorruptible tongue. Under Wang Lang's arrangement, he went out of the city smoothly and met Zhang Bao smoothly, Zhang Bao also warmly received him, the two sides also launched friendly talks, and Zhang Bao really arranged a banquet to entertain him. It's a pity that he has the ambition of Zhuge Liang's tongue to fight the Confucianism back then, but he doesn't have Zhuge Liang's earth-shattering eloquence.

ps. Yesterday was really unlucky, the article was written, it crashed when it was modified, all the previous efforts were abandoned, restarted and modified, and then crashed, and then discarded, tossed until twelve o'clock, and turned off and slept angrily. This morning, I took some time to change the pass.

Situ ~ Hua turned out to be a forbidden word, what the hell is this, what kind of angry thing have you done? What a tired birdman
