Runan County Pingyu City, Runan Taishou Chamber. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The four sides were protected by Yu Hualing's three hundred personal guards, and only Han Yi, Bao Hong, Che La, Cheng Qi, Lu Ping, Le Peng and Ai Ke sat quietly in the hall. In the center is a large and sketchy map of the territory of the Han Dynasty. Today's discussion is a proposal for the pacification of the chaos in the whole country in the future.

The other six people sitting here are either credible people or people with wisdom and vision, and the initiator is Lu Ping, a subordinate son of Han Yi, the Marquis of Zhaoling.

Lu Ping sat at the bottom because of his lowest official position, but at this time, his eyes were full of essence and shouted first: "Master, my lords." If there is chaos today, the Han family is declining day by day; The princes of the states and counties regarded the Han Emperor as nothing, and accepted the land of the states and counties as their own. It can be said that it has become common to appoint private individuals, intercept superiors, forcibly seize territory, and kill court officials. ”

"As the auxiliary general of the Han Dynasty, the master lives in the land of Zhongzhou, with 200,000 soldiers, and between helping the Han family and being self-reliant, it is time to have a goal. Otherwise, everyone will be confused, and they will not know where their purpose is, and one day they will suddenly collapse themselves, or be destroyed by other forces. As the master's personal minister, Lu had to take the lead in putting forward this proposal, gathering all the loyal and righteous people to find out what the goal of the future is? Where do we go from here? ”

Bao Hong once had a brotherly relationship with Han Yi, although there was a master and slave at this time, but after all, he had been well-informed, and he had been in Luoyang for a long time, and now he was a prince, so he should be the first to speak.

Bao Hong did not shirk, cleared his throat and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, since the destruction of the second Qin Dynasty, the twelve emperors of the former Han Dynasty in the second hundred years were usurped by Wang Mang. Since Emperor Guangwu rebuilt the Han Dynasty, there have been 12 emperors for 200 years. Now there is Dong Zhuo in the court, which is similar to the death of the former Han Dynasty. In addition, in the past few years, there have been proverbs circulating in the world, saying, 'Those who represent the Han should be Tu Gaoye.' ’”

"And the reason why Dong Zhuo moved to Chang'an is precisely because there is a proverbial language: 'There is a Han in the west and a Han in the east.'" When the deer enters Chang'an, there is no difficulty. After Dong Zhuo moved the capital to Chang'an, sure enough, the Kwantung coalition forces scattered, and the second Yuan fought for the Kwantung region; The lord was also forced to negotiate peace with Dong Zhuo and retreated to Runan, preparing to discuss Yuan's affairs. It can be seen that the proverb is basically the same. It can also be seen that the funeral of the Han is right in front of you. I thought that the big man could not be supported, and the lord should consider it for self-reliance. ”

Everyone was silent for a while, and after carefully considering Bao Hong's words, Le Peng, as the head of the scribes, also spoke: "My lord, since Emperor Xuan of the former Han Dynasty, the lords of the Han Dynasty have supported and controlled most of the fields and subordinates of the Han Dynasty. Because the clansmen were officials and officials, the nobles and lords neither paid taxes nor served, and even sheltered a large number of slaves and vassals who were exempt from taxes and slavery. ”

"A few years ago, the annual tax revenue of the Han Dynasty was only 20 billion yuan, far lower than the highest tax revenue of the Han Dynasty before and after, but it caused chaos in the country. The court was powerless to suppress it, and in desperation, the governors of various counties and prefectures had great power, which became the beginning of the chaos of the Han Dynasty. The guards of each county have 30,000 or 50,000 soldiers, and the few have 10,000 or 20,000 soldiers, and the lord of a state has more than 100,000 soldiers. If the lord wants to support the Han family, he must conquer the rebellious forces in various states and counties, which is no different from the difficulty of building a new dynasty. Therefore, a certain believes that it is better to be self-reliant than to support Han. ”

Ai Ke also bowed and said: "My lord, since the establishment of the Later Han Dynasty, the power of the world is not in the hands of the emperor, but in the hands of the living lords. It can be seen from the dispute between Yuan and Dong that this is a dispute between the world lord and the warlord. It can be seen that the world of the Han Dynasty is no longer the world of the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, and since the Later Han Dynasty and the Emperor, there is almost no emperor in the Han Dynasty who is worth mentioning. The reason why it has persisted for a long time is because the world valve does not want it to collapse quickly. ”

"Now that the Han can't help him, the world lord doesn't care, and he begins to seize the world for himself. The lord was born from a lowly family, or he could follow the example of Emperor Gaozu and take advantage of the dispute between Chu and Han to purge the descendants of the Six Kingdoms. Taking advantage of the chaos in the world, he wantonly cleansed the world's lords and scholars, and rebuilt a peaceful and prosperous world where everyone is equal, even if slaves can be generals. ”

Che La also shouted: "Lord, when today's enemies, except for Er Yuan and Dong Zhuo, the rest are just mediocre people. Although the old man is old and unwell, he knows that if the lord has the heart to build a country on his own, the old man is also willing to rise up and lay a great territory for the lord. ”

Lu Ping and Cheng Qi also bowed: "Master, I don't know what your ambitions are?" ”

Han Yi closed his eyes and said nothing, and the hall suddenly fell into a long, uncomfortable silence. Only the people began to sweat profusely, and the sound of dripping on the table kept dripping. I don't know if it's because of the heat or because of the lack of heart.

Although people call Han Yi a son-in-law and a cheap son, those who really know Han Yi know that Han Yi's status is all built by himself, and he has almost no help from others. Since Han Yi's conquest, he has won many victories and lost few defeats, and at this time, he has already developed a momentum of inviolability, and ordinary people are frightened when they see it, and they dare not look at him.

In addition, Han Yi rarely laughs, although he is not tyrannical, he can often be imposing. In addition, the prestige has become heavier recently, and the soldiers are intimidating, and there are few people who can maintain their composure in front of Han Yi. Unless it was when Han Yi was happy, no one dared to be presumptuous in front of Han Yi.

After a long time, everyone heard Han Yi's faint voice and said: "As the proverb goes, 'Those who die in Qin are also Hu.'" Liu Xiu should be the Son of Heaven. This was indeed widely spread before Hu Hai was proclaimed emperor and Liu Xiu was proclaimed emperor. I heard that the First Emperor built the Great Wall in order to eliminate the proverbs, and the national teacher Liu Xin changed his name to Liu Xiu in response to the proverbs, but they all failed. 'Those who represent the Han should be Tu Gao. This prophecy is inexplicable, I think about it, and it has nothing to do with me, do you think that the prophecy should be on me? ”

Everyone shouted in unison: "Although the prophecy is inexplicable, but if the lord doesn't give it a try, how can he know it?" ”

After a long time, uncomfortably silent, Han Yifang said: "This matter, everyone can keep it in their hearts, don't spread it." I only have a few counties now, and although there are many soldiers and horses, nearly half of them are easily unmobilized. In fact, there are only about 50,000 soldiers who can be used, and it is difficult to fight the world with 50,000 soldiers without the help of family background. Therefore, we should silently develop our strength under the banner of Fuhan. When the strength is not fixed, don't expose your ambitions. ”

Lu Ping shouted: "But if the master has no heart to swallow the world, the world knows the master's will, how can he be willing to help the master?" ”

Han Yi said with a smile: "There is only a lack of righteous parties in the world that share good and woe, and there is no shortage of followers who are icing on the cake, as long as I have you, the support of the soldiers and the people, and a huge foundation for food, why not be afraid of no one to help." ”

Everyone worshiped happily, Han Yi stepped on the map of the territory of the Han Dynasty, pointed from north to south, and said: "Che Lao said that except for Er Yuan and Dong Zhuo, the rest of the people in the world are mediocre, but this is not true. According to Yang Li's intelligence collection in the past year, Liu Yu of Youzhou is virtuous and ancient, and has high prestige among foreign tribes such as Xianbei, Wuhuan, Fuyu, and Huiqian; Gongsun Du of Liaodong was ambitious and overlooked in the army; Brother Bo Jue of Beiping on the right is also ashamed of himself in terms of military strategy. ”

"Yuan Shao in the land of Jizhou is virtuous and resourceful, and countless heroes under his command have gathered, and even talents such as Cao Cao have acted according to his orders. Tao Qian of Xuzhou is strong and benevolent, the people of Xuzhou are prosperous, and the military is quite strong. Huainan's Yuan Shu had many soldiers and horses, and many scholars were attached, and although they were defeated, they were able to recover. Liu Biaohu of Jingzhou stood in Jiangbiao and pacified a state, and even Sun Jian's brother of the Jiangdong Tigers was defeated in his hands, which shows that his ability is extraordinary. ”

"Han Sui Ma Teng of Xiliang has not been able to calm down the strength of the country for several years, which shows its strength. Liu Yan of Yizhou, even when Emperor Xiaoling was there, had the dream of the Son of Heaven in a peaceful place early. In addition, Dong Zhuo, who controls the court of the Han Dynasty but does not die, although he is brutal, he is very angry, has many soldiers and horses, and is a big enemy. There are so many heroes and heroes in the world, how can they be said to be mediocre. ”

"If you have the heart to help me calm the world, you must not be too careless. If there is no chaos today, there are still many talented people lurking in the grass and waiting for the sky, you need to know that the first person to make a contribution is definitely not the one who has the last laugh. Just like the countries surnamed Ji during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, Xiang Yan Xiangji, etc., who first revolted at the end of the Qin Dynasty, and the first emperor of the Red Eyebrows and Green Forest after Wang Mang's rebellion, were all those who made wedding clothes for others. ”

"Do you know that the four sides within my ministry are attached to peace and stability? Is there no one who silently accumulates strength on my body, and when I am weak, I fight back and replace it? ”

Everyone was shocked and asked, "The lord has some suspicions. ”

Han Yi shook his head and said, "No, it's just that I have been reading history recently." I, Han Yi, am among today's forces, and my strength is also in the forefront, only slightly weaker than Dong Zhuo. But in terms of prestige and popularity, it is far inferior to Liu Yu, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, and Tao Qian. Scholars and virtuous people turn a blind eye to me. You persuaded me to have the ambition of the world, but I was afraid of repeating in the footsteps of Dong Zhuo and being opposed by the people of the world. ”

Everyone was also a little uneasy, and asked, "After the lord reads history, is there anything else?" ”

Han Yi thought for a while before he said: "Over the years, our department has only shown martial arts above military strategy, but never on top of cultural governance. At present, the development of our department is too rapid, and it is far from enough to support our department in the competition for the whole world. Therefore, the current strategy of our ministry is to calm down and focus on developing people's livelihood and governing local areas. Yuzhou is the land of four wars, and there is no danger of mountains and rivers. Although the people are numerous and the products are abundant, if we do not build it into a strong foundation fortress that belongs to me, I am afraid that it may be lost in an instant. ”

After everyone heard this, they suddenly felt that Han Yi's words were the words of prudent planning for the country, and they suddenly bowed down. Lu Ping suddenly shouted: "Master, Lu Ping has neither martial arts nor literary talent, and the responsibility of teaching the son is too heavy, and Lu Ping does not dare to take up the position of concubine again." I would like to build a secret guard to protect my master's position and monitor those who are loyal and deficient under my master's command. I beg your lord's approval. ”

Han Yi was stunned for a moment, and nodded: "Well, it's okay, just call the Hidden Eagle Guard." ”
