In fact, due to the convenience of geographical transportation, the envoys sent by the Jin State to the Eastern Wu arrived at the border of the Eastern Wu much earlier than the one sent to Shu Han.

At this time, it was August 265, and it had been a full year since Sun Hao ascended the throne of Eastern Wu.

In April of that year, it is said that manna fell on Jiang Ling (Sun Quan's tomb), so in May of that year, the Yuanxing era name that had only been used for eight months was discontinued. Switch to the new era name, nectar. Therefore, in 265 AD, it was the first year of manna in Soochow.

At the beginning of this year, Sun Hao had just purged the Dongwu Dynasty by destroying the remnants of the Puyangxing and Zhang Bu clans, and after replacing the main posts with his own people, he began a vigorous national household tax clearance action.

But in a country like Soochow, it is necessary to really check the household tax without discrimination across the country, hehehe......

Before Sun Ce crossed the river, the Jiangdong family was already very powerful. Gu Lu Zhu Zhang These noble families, who TM is not tens of thousands or even more than 100,000 serfs in their families? It is not too simple to casually transfer strong men and form a private army of thousands or even tens of thousands. Do you want to check your household tax? I'll let you check the team and destroy it?

"Ah, Shiji. What a deal? Let's not talk about Xishu in Yizhou, the foundation of Prime Minister Zhuge is good, and the top family there is a dwarf in our place. That Guan Zifeng handled the knife very easily. But you also said that even in the Jin Kingdom in the north, the scale of its top family is far inferior to that of my Great Wu. How so? ”

"Uh, Your Majesty. Before the minister came to His Majesty's side, Guan Zifeng once told the minister the reason why the scale of my Great Wu family is so large. ”

"Oh? So what did Guan Zifeng say? ”

"Your Majesty, Guan Zifeng said. First, Jiangdong was developed relatively late, and in general, the land is vast and sparsely populated, and the level of cultivation is low. Single-family farmers face much more difficulties than farmers on the northern plains to survive on their own. ”

"Well, that's a reason. But the ones over there in Yizhou are not much better than my Dawu. No, they have fewer people and a lower level of cultivation. ”

"Your Majesty has a point. That's the second reason. There is Dujiangyan in Yizhou, and the entire Chengdu Plain is flooded and drought, and there is basically no large-scale famine. Therefore, although there are few people in Yizhou, it is very difficult for ordinary farmers to survive independently. My Dawu is different, we have a dense water network here, and there are lakes and swamps everywhere. Without a strong organization to unite the many farmers, it is impossible to cope with frequent floods and to drain the swamps for farming. In addition, there is a third reason that Jiangdong is too far away from the Central Plains, and both the former and later Han dynasties are beyond the reach of this place. Therefore, the Jiangdong family, the general trend has become a success. ”

"Hey, this Guan Zifeng is far away in Yizhou, and he can actually see my Da Wu's heels clearly?"

Although the minister wanted to be greedy for merit, he said that the opinions just now were the minister's own. It's a pity ......"

"Hehehe, Shi Ji is really a sincere person. So, has Guan Zifeng said how to solve this situation? ”

"I don't dare to speak."

"Shiji, you and I get along, but it's okay to speak up."

"Okay." Zhong Hui sighed softly: "The minister is presumptuous, please speak close to Your Majesty." ”

"Hahahaha~~ Shiji, when you first came to Wucheng, I slept with you. Well, I'll come to you. Say. ”

"What Guan Zifeng means is that the geographical environment of my Dawu determines that this is simply a paradise for the big families. Therefore, it is impossible to destroy the family. The only thing that can be done is ......" further lowered his voice, Zhong Hui gritted his teeth and said: "With the Nangong Party of the past years as the core, in the name of clearing household taxes, clean up the Lu Wang Party." If this is not enough, they will stir up the contradiction between Wu County and Huiji County, and use the Wu County family as the basis to purge the family of Huiji County. In this way, in this process, although the Nangong Party and the Wu Jun family will be stronger, the power of the country will only be stronger faster! ”

"Hiss~~~ This Guan Zifeng is trying to provoke civil strife in my Great Wu!"

"Yes, that's what Guan Zifeng said at the time. And he also said......"

"What else?"

"This is a conspiracy, although Your Majesty knows that he has bad intentions, but Your Majesty will do it sooner or later."

Yes, Sun Hao's shoes. That's what you're doing on the plane of history. After you ascended the throne, reuse the descendants of the princelings in the Southern Lu Party struggle to carry out a thorough purge of the descendants of the Lu King Party. Then he used the Wujun family to suppress the Huiji County family. In this process, although you have killed a lot of people, your throne is still stable - if you really want to kill indiscriminately like in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", this throne can sit for more than ten years?

“…… Hmph, hehehe, Shiji. I'm really getting more and more interested in that Guan Zifeng. Why don't we invite him to Soochow as a guest? ”

"Hehehe, Your Majesty, I hope he doesn't come."

"Oh, too. If he comes, he must have brought tens of thousands of troops. At this time, although Cao Wei had been destroyed, the Wushu Alliance still had a need to exist. ”

"Your Majesty is very pleased to see this."

"Where, when I was young, I lost my father's teachings when I was a child. There is still a lot of confusion about how to control the country. Therefore, in the future, please know everything. ”

"The minister is trusted by His Majesty, and he dares not to die!"

After the two of them staged a bloody drama again, Sun Hao looked up at the sky: "Well, the morning light is getting brighter, it's time to go to court." Today, the envoys of the Jin Kingdom are going to see the court, so let's go to the main hall early. By the way, these two envoys are called Chen Xiuyuan, Zhang Mao first, right? ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. Chen Qian's character Xiu Yuan is currently the general of the Jin Kingdom. Zhang Huazi Maoxian, the current Huangmen Shilang of the Jin Kingdom. ”

"Hey, it's a pity that I didn't send the Fire Cloud Evil God here."

"Hahahaha~~~ Your Majesty, the Fire Cloud Evil God is forty out of eighty this year, even if Jian Wushuang doesn't give him such a nickname, he won't be able to come."

"Tsk, it's a pity, Shiji, you know these two people who came today, right?"

"Hehe, Your Majesty, the minister is very familiar with them."

"Well, this Chen Xiuyuan I have heard about it a long time ago, the son of Chen Jiao of the Guangling Chen family. It is said that when the Jin Kingdom was founded, it was awarded eight false titles, known as the Eight Princes of the Founding of the Kingdom. Chen Xiuyuan, a general, can neither open a government nor run the army, he is completely an old man who is a pensioner. ”

"Your Majesty, don't underestimate this person. This person's military strategy, in the opinion of Zhong Hui, will not lose to Lu Zijing in the past. ”

"Oh! Why did Shi Ji say that? ”

"Your Majesty, Chen Xiuyuan first defended the Xiongnu and Xianbei in Zhongshan for many years. When it was in the north, the Xiongnu and Xianbei did not dare to make a mess at all. Later, he followed Sima Zhao to quell the Zhuge Rebellion. After that, he guarded Yangzhou for a long time and successfully recovered Hefei City. During his tenure, the right big Sima (Ding Feng) was not allowed to advance an inch. Later, he went to Jingzhou to be the chief official. Zuo Da Sima (Shi Ji) also failed to please him in front of him. He is the kind of commander who is not known for his tricks and tricks, but is good at making all kinds of preparations in advance to crush the enemy with a dignified array. Very often, the enemy has not even gone to the battlefield and has already been defeated. ”

"Hiss~~~ Listening to Shi Ji, this is a rare general! But Sima Yan actually left such a good general idle? Why, there are so many talents in the Jin Kingdom that such a good general has no place? ”

"Hehehe, Your Majesty. The talents of the Sima family have long withered to the point of not being able to speak. But what can be done? The defeat of Shu and the forced ascension to the throne were unwilling in all aspects. can only be the tallest among the short in the relatives, control the troops in various places, and deal with it exhaustively. However, in case the Jin Kingdom reaches a critical juncture of life and death, whether it is Chen Xiuyuan or Shi Zhongrong, they will all return to the battlefield. ”

"Hey, I really hope that one day I can force such a famous general into battle. Well, Shi Ji, what about this Zhang Maoxian? I've never heard of this person before. ”

"Your Majesty, this Zhang Maoxian, although he is only in his thirties this year, is talented and has a good character. Its ability to govern is already above Zhonghui. If it weren't for the limitations of seniority and family rank, this person would be the most suitable person to be a scholar in the Jin Kingdom. ”

"Ahh Shiji. What a flourishing talent in the north! It's a pity that they can't stay in the most suitable position because of family and valve calendars. Hey, I really look down on that Sima Yan more and more. ”
