Chapter 287: Place
And these things are very important keys.
Since the restoration of Guangwu, the so-called Eastern Han Dynasty has always had the situation of the family pit, but it has been repeated and has not caused a catastrophe after all, and it was not until the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty that this wave completely collapsed.
Coming back, the Wei and Jin dynasties cleaned up the mountains and rivers and re-established the unification of Wancheng, but the result was not as strong as the Eastern Han Dynasty, and it still fell into the family pit in minutes.
At the end of the day, what's the biggest problem? It is nothing more than the so-called issue of the family's local rights.
Although the Eastern Han Dynasty said that the family has been developing, local resources have been accumulating, and personal relations have been expanding, but until the Yellow Turban Uprising, one rule has not been broken, that is, elite private soldiers in the real sense are not allowed to exist, not to mention equipment such as heavily armored bows and crossbows.
In addition, whether the Han Emperor himself or the Taiwei in power, or the Great Sima, anyway, it means that the military commander in the real sense can control the pile of people in the main center, so the local family will not be able to make any big waves.
This is also why Liu Hong, who will be called Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty in the future, has no problem with the actual power of the Han Emperor, and the holy decree must be followed. Don't say anything openly if you throw Liu Biao off in Jingzhou, even if it is the so-called assassin and county guard, it is all arbitrary.
So the question is, with such a might, why did it collapse in the end? On the other hand, why does the local government look cowardly, what the Han Emperor said is what, when it is really needed, the development of the entire state and county will directly become private, and a large number of soldiers and horses can be exploded at once?
This question is completely in response to the old saying, money can make ghosts grind, and a penny is difficult to defeat heroes.
After all, no matter how much your Han Emperor Liu Hong bombs the sky, you can't directly slaughter the big families in Luoyang like Dong Zhuo in the final stage, and go directly to excavate the imperial tombs, right? Then you want to maintain the operation of the entire Han Dynasty, and tens of millions of people in the world are pointing at you, what are you going to do?
Of course, Liu Hong's private enjoyment is not excluded, but if it is really said that the emperor's private enjoyment can collapse the entire treasury, the problem is still in the country itself, and it is purely a problem with taxation.
Do you really think that Emperor Wu of the People's Republic of China took out the money in his mouth to deal with the Huns? Then you're just thinking too much. Although Emperor Wu is not as exaggerated and obscene as Liu Hong, except for that kind of strange gameplay, there will not be much difference in spending money to enjoy.
After all, this money is still in the hands of each family itself, and the biggest problem in feudal society is the existence of the landlord class, which is completely sophisticated in its routine for tax evasion and tax evasion.
So in the end, Liu Hong can only come to the so-called selling official, and this thing itself is not original, but he is the most murderous thing he does.
I don't have any money in my own right, and if I toss it like this, the problem will naturally be that the people don't have a good life. Cooperated with the Ten Standing Servants to deceive the superiors and subordinates, Liu Hong himself did not know the so-called civil suffering, so naturally there was the Yellow Turban Uprising.
The Yellow Turban Uprising can be described as mighty, although it is said that the main force was also destroyed by the army of the Han Dynasty itself, that is, the aforementioned Beiying, the Battle of Changshe and other things, it can be regarded as doing Zhang Jiao.
However, in this matter, the flames of the Yellow Turban have burned to most of the territory of the Han Dynasty, and the elite of the so-called Central Army is not enough to disperse everywhere to suppress bandits. In addition, Liu Yan's guy had bad intentions and wanted to go to Sichuan to be the emperor of the soil, so he proposed a state pastoral system to Liu Hong, which can be regarded as completely letting go of the shackles on the family.
Of course, the Han family itself said that only clan relatives could serve as state ministers, but there was also an order that the local government could recruit village warriors to suppress bandits on their own. At once, two openings opened, like small openings in the embankment, which seemed to have set up heavy restrictions, but in fact, they were completely vulnerable under the surging tide, and they collapsed under the frenzy in an instant.
As soon as this opening is opened, it is equivalent to opening the cage that locks the beast of the family.
Recruiting Townspeople? This kind of thing is not easy for ordinary people, and it is not even such an easy thing for local officials, but it is simply a piece of cake for local wealthy families.
The first is the material base, which is money and food. As a wealthy family with several generations or even dozens of generations, how can it be called a powerful family if there is not enough accumulation?
In the past, it was stuck by the Han family, and too many private soldiers would be treated as rebellions, but now there is no such restriction, and it is not a trivial matter to recruit those homeless people who can't eat.
Besides, even if his family does not accumulate much money and food, in terms of the family, what is more important is prestige and connections.
The fourth generation and the third duke of the old Yuan family were placed there, and Yuan Shao escaped from Luoyang even later, and even after the end of the fight against Dong, he did not seize any materials. Turned around and ran Jizhou Han Fu sent it directly. This kind of prestige resource is more than any money and food.
Just having money without these resources can only be used as an investment, and without a real background recognized by everyone, a lot of money is not of much effect.
At the end of the Han Dynasty, the so-called Zhen family in Jizhou, the Mi family in Xuzhou, the Wei family in Hedong and the Wu family in Yizhou were called the four wealthy businessmen, and they didn't know where to use it at all, like the Zhen family, there were not too many disaster reliefs, which is why the family was not wiped out in Jizhou, the main base of the Yellow Turban. It's not just a castle or a private soldier.
However, it is useless, and in the end, you can only play investment.
Let's not talk about the unlucky Zhen family, from the beginning of investing in Yuan Shao, they came all the way to the pit, and finally when Zhen Ji and her son took the throne, the Zhen family was all gone. But it is undeniable that during the period of the Yuan family or the Cao family, the Zhen family definitely paid for it.
Needless to say, Mrs. Mi and their family did their best to invest in Liu Bei. Although it is said that the family is bankrupt after tossing along the way, Liu Bei is still more nostalgic, except for the second brother Guan, the Mi family still does not lose.
Not to mention the Wei family, Boss Cao's die-hard fan, Boss Cao's assassination of Dong Bucheng escaped and sent a document to ask for Dong, which was invested by the Wei family.
The Wu family in Yizhou is similar to the Zhen family, relatively speaking, it is slightly better, first married his daughter to Liu Zhang, and then was married by Liu Bei again, hugged Liu Bei's thigh, and basically did not get cheated later.
As for Su Shiping and the like, there is no need to say more.
All of this in essence also illustrates a truth, that is, the problem of the regionality of the family.
The fourth generation and third duke of the old Yuan family are completely protégés all over the world, and their own lineage is actually Yuan Shu Nanyang's side. Therefore, Yuan Shu occupied the soil emperor over there, and only then did he have the confidence to dare to be the emperor.
And the north relies on political reputation and so on the one hand, and on the other hand, it also depends on ability, if it weren't for the little brother of the Xun family to help Yuan Shao shake some Han Fu, it would not be so easy to take down Han Fu's cake.
As for the Jiangdong Sun family, they have also been mixed up there for a while, and even so, the Jiangdong family still has a lot of dissatisfaction, and they have come up with the assassination of Sun Ce and so on.
This is also a problem that later princes had to face when they opened up the situation locally.
Not to mention Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, who directly returned to their own land, Cao Cao also relied half on the background of his hometown brothers, half on the support of the Wei family, and later the think tank began to go online, so he was able to develop steadily.
The most obvious negative case is the ghost place in Xuzhou, where there are various pits in the family.
Cao Bao of the Cao family helped Lu Bu pit Zhang Fei, and Chen Deng helped Cao Liu pit Lu Bu, to put it too much, the girl was completely played by others.
In the final analysis, for Bao Hong, the basic plate is the radiation area where Fufeng begins, and Liangzhou can be regarded as slowly becoming the scope that Bao Hong can influence, but when it comes to the Central Plains, where is there no family that has been inherited for 100 generations? Local influence can completely trap you, you want to conscript? Let's make them satisfied first, like Liu Biao, who rode into Jingzhou alone, can't do this kind of thing by himself, what else is there to say?
In the final analysis, there must be a local base, and the so-called local base is the population. Only the population that has a degree of recognition for you can be transformed into soldiers on the basis of the population, and only then can there be things to follow.
Therefore, in Bao Hong's situation, it is very difficult to recruit troops on the Central Plains, and as for the collection of displaced people, although Bao Hong is indeed doing it, it is not worth the loss. Bao Hong doesn't have enough land here as a basic plate, and what to collect the displaced people is a fart.
It is said that the common people are the easiest to be satisfied, as long as they have enough to eat. But on the flip side, they are also the most difficult to deal with, why? In a word, it is difficult to leave the homeland.
In fact, what is difficult to leave is not difficult to leave, to put it bluntly, it is still a matter of soil.
After you collect the homeless, it is a matter of giving a few meals, and if you really want to say conscription or something, unless it is the kind of lonely person, it will definitely have to rely on this land, and it is impossible to run away with you.
And that's not even counting the cases of local tyrants blocking it.
Of course, if you want to consider occupying the land locally and distributing it to them, then go directly to war with the local landlords.
As for taking them somewhere else, there are very few people who are willing to do so.
Therefore, Du Fuwei's group really has a population and even an army that has enough popular support, which is definitely a huge wealth for Bao Hong.
Of course, the reverse is also a big burden. That is, the issue of placement. However, this is not a problem, and there is a way to solve it by working together.
