Chapter 249: The Character of the Cultivators

Of course, having said that, this can't be regarded as a standard for evaluating people's abilities, after all, according to the records of the historical records, the number of marquis in the early Han Dynasty was still quite a lot, according to the records, it is said that there are three marquis in one hundred and forty, these mainly belong to the type of continuous conquest and hard work, or no merit and hard work, as for the clear record of the record, it is also the one in the forefront, and the others have no single performance, it is estimated that they are just mixed with the coach.

"Even if those guys have any careful thoughts, it is impossible to pull the rebel army under our command, at this point, I still have confidence in General Chen's ability!" Wang Huang said with a smile.

Wang Huang's words are not unreasonable, really speaking, Chen Huang's ability to collect hearts and communicate is definitely not boastful.

First of all, the first point, when Han Wangxin rebelled and fled into the Xiongnu, Han Gaozu went to Pingcheng and returned, named Chen Feng as a liege, and led the border troops of Zhao and Daiguo as the prime minister of Zhao, and the army guarding the frontier in this area was under his jurisdiction.

The status of Zhao Dynasty Xiangguo is no less than that of Cao Shenxiangqi, and Cao Shen's military merits can be described as the first, and he is one of the leading figures of Liu Bang's cronies and Fengpei's family, and Chen Feng is neither from Fengpei nor Fengpei's surrounding people, but he can be valued by Liu Bang and entrusted with such an important position, which can be seen.

On the other hand, in the seventh year of Gaozu, when Chen Feng was the prime minister, he went to Beijing to meet Liu Bang. Because he was Han Shin's subordinate in the past, he also went to meet Han Shin. Han Xin introduced the secret room and said to Chen Xuan: "You can get this important task today because you have the trust of the emperor, but Your Majesty is suspicious by nature, if one person accuses you of rebellion, Your Majesty may not believe it, if many people accuse you of rebellion, Your Majesty will be suspicious, I am afraid that your disaster is coming." If one day you are forced to rebel, I will help you in the capital. ”

This paragraph should refer to Huaiyin Han Xin rather than Han Wangxin.

There are not many people who can afford Han Xin, don't forget that Han Xin is ashamed to be in the company of Guan Jiang Fan and others, but he is very polite in his words with Chen Xuan, this attitude is not just to introduce an attitude of foreign aid in the local area.

These two points show his skill in communicating with the upper echelons, and of course, from the side, the fact that others can value him also shows his ability.

And then there's the attitude towards the lower classes.

Chen Xuan's entourage had more than 1,000 cars, and all the official residences in Handan were full. And Chen Feng treats the guests with the etiquette of communication between the common people, and is always humble and respectful, and treats others with condescension.

This proper routine of the fourth son, like this, can the people below still not be loyal?

However, it was this behavior that sent him to the point of no return.

Zhao Xiangguo and Zhou Chang saw Chen Xuan's battle, so he asked to go to Beijing to see him. After meeting Liu Bang, he told all the things such as Chen Xian's large number of guests, his sole military power outside for several years, and the fear that there would be changes.

Liu Bang ordered someone to investigate the violations of law and discipline in terms of property and other aspects of Chen Xuan's guests, and many of these things implicated Chen Xuan. Chen Feng was very frightened, and secretly sent guests to Wang Huang and Manqiuchen to communicate the news.

It's really true that he worships Xinlingjun and likes to make friends, and the fact that there are thousands of guests is nothing in itself. It's just that in the context of that era, one after another princes and kings rebelled, and you still toss these at this time to touch Liu Bang's sensitive nerves, isn't that too bad at being a man!

And speaking of which, with the development of the times, the routine of raising a priest itself is no longer suitable for such an open and fanfare.

At the end of the Warring States Period, the Qin State became more and more powerful, and the nobles of the vassal states tried their best to recruit talents in order to deal with the invasion of the Qin State and save their country from destruction. They were courteous and virtuous, and recruited guests to expand their power, so the practice of raising "scholars" prevailed. The question is, who do you want to fight against? What do you mean?

Looking back, as mentioned earlier, in order to deal with the strategy of the Four Princes of the Warring States and other cultivators to recruit talents to deal with the Qin State, Lü Buwei also recruited guests, and even compared with the Four Princes, their achievements in politics, economy and culture were much higher.

But what is the final result? Can the First Emperor tolerate an existence like you to restrain and threaten his authority?

Not only Lü Buwei, but also Chang Yu, who was raised by the first emperor to deal with Lü Buwei, was named the Marquis of Changxin, with Taiyuan County in Hexi as his fief, Yongcheng should be decided by Chang Yu, and everything in the palace was determined by him, and there were thousands of child servants and guests at home, and there were more than 1,000 guests who went to Chang Yu to seek officials.

Lü Buwei threatened his position because he was jealous of Chang Yu's ability and was deeply appreciated by the Queen Mother. Send someone to the King of Qin to tell Chang Yu and the Empress Dowager *** The Empress Dowager and Chang Yu decided to take advantage of the absence of the King of Qin in Xianyang to eradicate Lü Buwei, and when the King of Qin went to the city to hold the crown ceremony, Chang Yu used the seal of the King of Qin and the Empress Dowager as planned to guide his servants and the army to launch a coup d'état to kill Lü Buwei. Unexpectedly, Lü Buwei had deep roots, colluding with the Chu forces Changping Jun and Chang Wenjun to lead the Xianyang soldiers to fight with Chang Yu, and the two armies fought in Xianyang. Lü Buwei pretended to be the king of Qin and ordered: "All those who have military exploits will be rewarded by the lord, and those who participate in the war will also be rewarded by the knight." "Hundreds of Chang Yu's troops were killed, and Chang Yu was also deeply damaged. Chang Yu's army was defeated, and he fled with his dead friends in a hurry.

These two guys tossed such a big movement in the capital Xianyang when the first emperor was away, how harmful it was, as long as the emperor was not too stupid, he would see it, and at the same time, he would not tolerate them.

Needless to say, the final result was that the two powerful ministers were killed one after another.

Although Chen Feng is far less ferocious than the above-mentioned ones, and it can even be said that he has not crossed the cordon at all, but after all, you have already had such behavior, as the emperor, Liu Bang cannot pin his hopes on your heart, and emotionally think that you are a loyal minister, even if you raise so many diners, you will not rebel.

In fact, if you really want to talk about it, Liu Bang is very similar to Emperor Shi in these things, especially the centralization of power.

In the matter of the princes and kings, Liu Bang inherited the concept of the emperor's unification, and abandoned the feudal system inherited from the Zhou royal family. Even the princes and kings who had to compromise and divide the feuds were cleaned up by him one by one afterwards.

The same is true for the cultivators, who cannot condone the development of this kind of atmosphere, which is harmful to centralization and social stability.

But back to the point. Regardless of whether this matter is right or wrong, whether it conforms to the trend or reverses the trend, anyway, the facts are already there, Chen Feng has won the support of a large number of diners, which shows that his personality and personality charm are also very set for 'closing the heart'.

Speaking of which, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu fought for 4 years, Yingbu went from rebellion to being flattened for less than 1 year, Han Xin Peng Yue was stillborn, and Chen Feng and Liu Bang fought for 3 years.

Of course, there are factors in the overall situation, I just said that Liu Bang was not prepared to leave such a legacy product of the princes and kings from the beginning, it was just that after the Chu and Han wars, those princes were powerful, and they also had prestige in the local area, and the credit was not small, and it was not good to directly unload the mill and kill the donkey after all, and at that time, it was also necessary to slow down and digest the entire Central Plains, so there was a temporary compromise, and there were several major princes and kings. But fundamentally speaking, Liu Bang has been planning to end them since the day they were separated.

Because of this, their rebellion can be said to be as expected by Liu Bang, and it is naturally easy to calm down. And Chen Feng is Han Xin's cronies, which really means that his rebellion is not planned, and relatively speaking, he can naturally struggle for a little longer.

But on the other hand, if Chen Feng did not have such a mass base, it would not have been possible to hold out for so long, after all, you must know that the lineup to quell Chen Feng's rebellion is very grand, starting with Liu Bang, Zhang Liang, Chen Ping, Zhou Bo, Fan Xu, Guan Ying, Xiahou Ying, Cao Shen, Lu Juan, Chai Shen, Li Shang, Le Xin, Fu Kuan, Guo Meng, Zhao Yao. This lineup can be compared with Peng Cheng and Xiaxia.

So looking back, a figure like Chen Feng can be said to be very easy for the soldiers of the peasant uprising like the Yellow Turban Righteous Army, which is why Wang Huang is so confident that he is not afraid of what big moves he can make. (To be continued.) )
