Chapter 239: Lack of Heart
Of course, what Jia Xu said is not unreasonable, it can only be said that for the yellow scarf, this is an opportunity to win people's hearts, and it is also a very huge challenge. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The will of the people is easy to control, but it is difficult to control.
On the one hand, the common people are the most tolerant, as long as you give him a field to plant and a way to live, then the possibility of him coming out to rebel does not exist.
On the other hand, the people's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants, and how to divide this field so that there are no problems is definitely a major problem.
Everyone is the same ordinary people who came out to revolt, why do your family share more and my family share less? Or why is your family's land good, but my family's field?
The key is that the human heart itself is uncertain, and the so-called lack of human heart and insatiable greed are this truth.
It's not just that the above is unfair, even if it is distributed fairly, for many people, there will be something that is good for others, and the feeling that the house flowers are not as fragrant as the wild flowers, and they will always feel that other people's families are better.
Not only in terms of the people, even in the high-level, it is impossible to really achieve a bowl of water, and even in many cases, the people and the management are supervising, and there will be no chaos because there is no constraint, but because of the lack of restraint at the top, all kinds of stupid behaviors that make people stupid emerge in endlessly.
For example, the so-called insatiable allusion source.
Zhibo, a man from the Spring and Autumn Period, was very ambitious, and once he united the three kingdoms of Han, Zhao, and Wei to destroy the Zhongxing clan and occupy the territory of the Zhongxing clan. A few years later, he sent people to South Korea to ask for land cession, and South Korea was afraid, so they gave him a piece of land with 10,000 families. Zhibo knew about the taste of eating marrow this time, and asked Wei to cede the land, Wei didn't want to give it, but he was also afraid of the siege, so he had to give him a piece of land like Korea. Zhibo was even happier in his heart, and asked Zhao Guo for the two places of Cai and Gao Wolf; However, King Xiang of Zhao refused, and Zhibo combined Korea and Wei to attack Zhao. King Xiang of Zhao adopted the strategy of his strategists, moved the capital to Jinyang, and prepared sufficient food to resist Zhibo. After three years like this, Zhibo has never been able to capture Jinyang. However, Zhao was running out of food, so he sent people to lobby Wei and Han, teaching them to unite and attack Zhibo. Because Zhibo's ambition was too great, Wei and Korea agreed. As a result, Zhao sent troops overnight, and Han and Wei responded by defeating Zhibo and dividing his land; At that time, the people of the world not only did not sympathize with Zhibo, but ridiculed him for being "insatiable" and getting retribution.
Of course, it is not accurate to say that the three kingdoms of Han, Zhao, and Wei are actually only the three families of the Jin State, and they have not yet established their own country.
It was this guy who was killed in a pit, which led to the rise of the three families of Han, Wei, and Zhao, and the three families were divided into Jin, and the shape of the Seven Kingdoms was established, and since then it has entered the Warring States Period.
Of course, to be honest, this is just an idiom story that extends from the story itself, and the real characters are not so brain-dead. Of course, in terms of results, it is true that the brain is dead, but it is not simply insatiable greed that can explain it.
Zhibo is a talented and resourceful leader who emerged from the Jin Kingdom in the late Spring and Autumn Period, the third member of the Zhi family and the fifth Zhengqing of the Xun family. During his reign, the Jin dynasty showed a situation in which the Zhi family was dominant, overpowering the three secretaries, and the foreign Zhibo fought in the south and the north, and the strength of the Jin State gradually recovered. In the battle of Jinyang, when it was about to flood Jinyang City, it was due to the rebellion of Han and Wei, and the success was lost, and the battle of Jinyang directly led to the destruction of the Zhi clan and the fate of the Jin Kingdom being divided by the three families.
Historians of the past dynasties have seen more of the flaws of Zhibo's character and criticized him, but regarded Han and Wei's anti-water behavior as a righteous act, and praised Han Zhao Wei's retrograde behavior of carving up the Jin Kingdom, which is really incomprehensible? This kind of evaluation of Zhibo with the concept of success and defeat is quite unfair.
Zhibo's defeat directly led to the division of the Jin State by Han, Zhao and Wei, and the division of the Jin State also laid the foundation for the unification of the six countries of the Qin State in the future, and the Qin government left by the Qin State continued in China for more than 2,000 years.
From the perspective of the whole historical process, it seems that he is also a very good minister to help the monarch weaken the family.
How can it be said that weakening the family is not for their own Zhi clan? Because Zhibo said that everyone should give the land ceded earlier to the King of Jin.
At the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, the Yue Kingdom destroyed the Wu State, and Gou Jian led the army north to hold a princes' alliance, becoming the last overlord in the Spring and Autumn Period. The traditional hegemon Jin Guo was unable to compete for power externally because of the internal friction between the ministers and doctors, and the power was lost. The loss of the overlord is a great shame for the Jin State. After Zhibo became the ruler of the dynasty, he fought in the south and the north, which greatly increased the prestige of the Jin state, and many small states that broke away from the influence of the Jin state during the Jin civil strife were re-annexed. In the Jin Kingdom, it seems that he is expected to regain the position of the overlord of the Central Plains, and in the eyes of the Jin Dynasty, Zhibo is a loyal and good general who puts the country first. As the ruler of the Jin State, Zhibo knew very well in his heart that the power of the Jin State was sidelined, and the government was private, and if he wanted to restore the hegemony of the Jin State, he must reduce the feudal domain to enhance the strength of the Jin monarch.
In order to realize his ideals, Zhi Boyao said to the three doctors Zhao Xiangzi, Wei Huanzi, and Han Kangzi: "The Jin State was originally the overlord of the Central Plains, but it was later taken away by Wu and Yue. In order to make the Jin Kingdom strong, I advocate that each family should take out a hundred miles of land and household registration to return to the government, and my Zhi family will first take out a 10,000-household yi to dedicate to the Jin Duke, what about you? ”
Zhiyao naturally called on Han Kangzi and Han Hu to also dedicate a fief of 10,000 households. Han Hu didn't want to sacrifice his territory in vain like this, and wanted to refuse. Duan Gui admonished: "If you don't give up your land, Zhibo will definitely send troops to attack the Han clan. After Han donated the land, Zhibo would ask others for the land again, and if others did not give it, he would definitely send troops to attack. In this way, South Korea can avoid being attacked and wait for the situation to improve. Han Hu thought about it reasonably, and generously donated a land of 10,000 households to the office.
Zhi Yao asked Wei Huan Zi Wei Ju again, but Wei Ju didn't want to give it. His retainer Ren Zhang asked, "Why don't you give it?" Wei Ju said: "I want land for no reason, so I don't give it." Ren Zhang patiently persuaded Wei Ju: "Zhiyao asks for land, the doctors will definitely be afraid of him, we give him land, he will definitely relax his vigilance." When Zhibo relaxes his vigilance, he will underestimate the enemy, and our family will be close to the alliance out of fear; Once there is a conflict, if a close and united army is used to deal with the enemy, Zhibo's life will not last long. Wei Ju accepted his words and handed over a 10,000-household fiefdom to the Duke of Jin.
Zhiyao sent his brother Zhixiao to question his political opponent Zhao Wuxian, and designated that Zhao would cut out Lin and Zhaigao wolves and dedicate them to the country. And Zhao Wuxian refused: "I'm sorry! The land was passed down from the ancestors, and it is impossible to give it away at will! ”
This is what I said earlier, and it is not difficult to find from here that simply saying that you are insatiable can only be seen as a joke.
Of course, it is undeniable that he is indeed a little dizzy, insatiable, and can't see the ambition of the three families, naively thinking that if he can solve this matter peacefully, his family will be able to turn the tide, and he doesn't know where he got his confidence.
But in fact, it does not mean that there is no confidence.
Zhi Yao sent troops to garrison the Fenshui embankment, and soldiers dug up the soil to direct the Fenshui to Jinyang City, which turned into a Wang Yangze country overnight. Zhao Wuxian never expected Xun Yao to come to such a move, using the geographical and natural advantages to attack the city where people were stationed.
The soldiers and civilians in Jinyang City have begun to feel uneasy, and the crisis of the Zhao clan is coming.
Two months have passed, and Jinyang City is already eating with Yi Zi.
It can be said that in this situation, the Zhao clan was successfully destroyed, and with the power of the Zhao clan and the Zhi clan, coupled with the righteousness of the Jin king, it is not impossible to restore the Jin kingdom.
However, the results are needless to say.
At the time of the crisis, Zhao Wuxian asked Zhang Mengtan: "What can I do about it?" Zhang Mengtan said: "Let me go out of the city to meet Han Hu and Wei Ju!" Zhao Wuxian agreed. On this night, Zhang Mengtan secretly infiltrated Han Hu and Wei Ju and said about the current situation: "If the Zhao family dies, Han and Wei will not be protected!" It was this sentence that hit the key point of Han Hu and Wei Ju, and his lips were cold. Duan Gui and Ren Zhang were also fanning the flames, so the two families negotiated an agreement with Zhang Meng to destroy the Zhi clan together, and an earth-shattering conspiracy took shape.
Han Hu and Wei Ju led the two personal soldiers into the embankment of Fenshui, and took advantage of the unpreparedness of the Zhi clan to suddenly attack, killing all the Zhi clan's personal soldiers and controlling the embankment. Then the Fenshui was directed to the Zhi Shuai camp, and the water potential in Jinyang City receded. Zhao Wuxian knew that things were going according to plan, and led Zhao's personal soldiers to fight out of the city. Zhi Yao was still in a dream at this time, and when he heard that there was chaos in the barracks, when he woke up, there was already an ocean around him, and the Zhi army was at a loss in the chaos. The Zhao clan fought out of Jinyang City, and the Han clan and the Wei clan attacked both sides of the Zhi clan from the left and right, and the Zhi army had become a turtle in the urn.
Zhiyao couldn't control the army and wanted to take the road and escape. At this time, Zhao Wuxian, who hated Zhi the most, led his troops to capture Zhi Yao alive and kill him, and also carved Zhi Yao's head into lacquer, as the head of drinking. The Han, Zhao, and Wei families continued to exterminate and surrender the remnants of the Zhi clan. The main forces of the Zhi clan were all annihilated in this battle.
In order to avoid future troubles, he began to lead the army to attack the Zhi family's fiefdom, killing more than 200 members of the Zhibo family at one time, and the world was shocked! The Zhi fiefdom was also divided equally among the three families. Jin Chugong was furious and borrowed troops from Qi and Lu to crusade against Sanqing. Han, Zhao, and Wei Sanqing joined forces to attack the Duke of Jin, but the Duke was unable to resist and was forced to flee, but died of illness on the road. After the death of the Duke of Jin, Ji Jiao of the clan was established as the monarch of the country, and was known as the Duke of Jin Ai in history. Later, Han Zhaowei divided the other lands left by the Jin Kingdom, and the history called "Three Families Divided into Jin".
I have to say here that the careful thinking of the people of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period is still more reliable than those of the later Han Dynasty.
is also about cutting the domain, and the Duke of Jin said that he would directly borrow troops to attack Sanqing. Of course, it can't be denied that this is useless, but I have to say that people's minds are still relatively simple.
And Emperor Han Jing's mistake is completely incomparable.
Chao Cuo once again stated the sins of the princes to Emperor Jing, asked for the reduction of the fiefdom, the recovery of the side counties, and proposed to cut the feudal domain. Shang Shu's "Cutting Strategy" pointed out: "Today's cutting is also the opposite, and not cutting is also the opposite." Cutting it, its counter-urgency, small disaster; If you don't cut it, it will be too late, and the disaster will be great. ”
The chapter was sent, and Emperor Jing ordered the ministers, the princes and the royal family to gather to discuss, because Emperor Jing favored Chao Wrong, no one dared to openly oppose it, only Dou Ying disagreed, and since then he has formed a grudge with Chao Cuo.
Emperor Jing's edict: to cut down the Changshan County of the King of Zhao, the six counties of the King of Jiaoxi, the Donghai County and Xue County of the King of Chu, and the Yuzhang County and Huiji County of the King of Wu. Thirty articles of the decree were changed by mistake. The princes were in an uproar, and they all strongly opposed and hated Chao Cuo.
Chao Cuo forcibly cut the feudal domain, taking a great risk. Chao Wrong's father's persuasion was ineffective, and he committed suicide by taking poison.
More than ten days after Emperor Jing issued the order to cut the feudal domain, Wu Chu and other seven kingdoms rebelled in the name of punishing Chao wrong, which was the rebellion of the seven kingdoms of Wu and Chu. Emperor Jing heard the news and discussed with Chao Cuo about sending troops. Chao Cuo suggested that Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty drive the expedition in person and stay in the capital by himself.
When Dou Ying entered the palace, he asked Emperor Jing to summon Yuan An. Yuan Ang once served as the prime minister of Wu State, so Emperor Jing asked Yuan Ang for advice. Yuan Ang thought that the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms of Wu and Chu was not a big deal, and asked Emperor Jing to retreat from others, and offered advice: "The purpose of the rebellion of Wu and Chu is to kill Chao Cuo and restore the original fief; As long as the mistake is cut down, the envoy is sent to announce the pardon of the Seven Kingdoms, and the fiefdom that has been cut back can be restored, and the rebellion can be eliminated without bloodshed. Emperor Jing was silent for a long time and decided to sacrifice Chao Cuo in exchange for the princes' retreat. So he named Yuan Ang too often, and asked him to secretly rectify his outfit and send an envoy to Wu State.
More than ten days after Yuan Ang's advice, Prime Minister Tao Qing, Lieutenant Chen Jia, and Ting Lieutenant Zhang Ou jointly wrote a letter to impeach Chao Cuo, proposing that Chao Cuo be beheaded all over the house. Emperor Jing approved this movement, and Chao Cuo did not know about it at this time. So Emperor Jing sent a lieutenant to Chao Cuo's house and issued an edict to deceive Chao Cuo into going to the court to discuss matters. The carriage and horse passed through Chang'an East City, and the lieutenant stopped, read the edict to Chao Cuo, and cut Chao Cuo, who was still wearing court clothes at that time.
Although in the final result, Emperor Jing successfully suppressed the Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, while the King of Jin was divided by the three families. But it is not difficult to find that for the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, even politics is still a bit of discipline in it, and in the Han Dynasty, it can only be said that you want to be faced, and if you want to be disciplined, you will lose.
So then again, is it mainly morality or fraud for the people? In fact, needless to say, except for the monarchs who are occasionally brainwashed by those people of the Hundred Schools of Thought, they will consider using virtue to win people's hearts, and most of them still rely on deception.
I remember that some novelists said that if the Three Emperors don't say it, at least during the Five Emperors period, they may begin to spread the saying that thousands of techniques and tricks have been used to gain fame to obtain the throne, for example, the bamboo book records the affairs of Emperor Shun, and Emperor Yu's acquisition of Zen has also been shady.
After all, in the early days of the propagation of the ideas of the Hundred Schools of Thought, there were still a group of believers who believed in this matter, and those peasant-born teams, such as Yingbu and other early bandits, still had a better understanding of how to serve the public with the seizure and distribution.
So in the final analysis, Bao Hong is 12 points skeptical of Jia Xu's statement. (To be continued.) )
