Chapter 34, Zhen Rong Policy
Some people like to make crooked moves and send assassins when it is difficult to win, and this kind of opportunistic thing can be addictive, once it succeeds once, there must be a second time......
But this kind of assassination can never stop the wheel of history, for example, at the intersection of the new and Han dynasties, according to the Gongsun of Sichuan, Liu Xiu sent people to crusade, he first sent people to stab Lai She, and then sent people to stab Cen Peng to death - but in the end, he still could not escape the fate of defeat.
Pei Caixin said what kind of thing are you Zhang Chun? You can't even compare to Gongsun Shu's heels, and you dare to send assassins to seek Chen An first, and then want to get rid of me? And I almost fell for your poisonous scheme, and I even saved my will to die in a few milliseconds, what a shame! Immediately informed the generals, saying that they would wait for the autumn harvest, and at the latest this winter, I would personally lead a large army to attack Kuaicheng and crusade against Zhang Chun - "I will split his corpse and eliminate the hatred in my heart!" ”
Having said that, if you really ignore the situation in Yongzhou and Qin, and insist on attacking Zhang Chun, it is the so-called "rejuvenating division because of anger", which is likely to expose flaws and lead to defeat. Pei should have to wait for the news of the war in Anding County first, to know what the result is, as long as the battle is not too ugly, even if he can't extinguish Lu Shuihu, but as long as he can temporarily tie him up, he has an excuse to use troops directly against Zhang Chun - "Xiang Zhuang Dancing Sword", in fact, the sword is aimed at Sima Bao!
It is estimated that Sima Bao is unlikely to obey the edict and go to Chang'an to apologize, but even if you come, I will ask you to sacrifice Zhang Chunlai first, otherwise we will have no conditions to negotiate!
——————————
The body of Lu Shuihu is the ancient Peng people, known as "Peng Lurong" in the Zhou Dynasty, and later gradually absorbed the Xiongnu, Yuezhi, Xian, Qinhu, Qi, Di, Qiang and even the Chinese, and gradually prospered. Today's Lushuihu, with nearly 100,000 households and 20,000 or 30,000 victorious soldiers, not only occupies the entire western part of Anding County, but also captures Dulu and Wushi counties, and extends its power into Wuwei County in Liangzhou.
Therefore, Pei Gai also ordered the court to reach Liangzhou, and in the titles of Zhijie, Governor of Liangzhou Zhujun, Xizhong Lang General, Liangzhou Assassin Shi, Commander of Qiang Colonel, and Xiping Gong, Zhang Wei was given the three duties of Shizhong and Yitong, and ordered him to send an army to assist in attacking Lu Shuihu. Zhang Yu received the edict and sent the general Wang Cai to lead 2,000 cavalry south, first recovering the territory in the south of Wuwei County, and then entering Luoyang to join Chen An.
But if the king didn't come, he would have returned, and when he came, the question of command immediately surfaced. For all the chiefs of Di and Qiang, most of them have no official positions, so they can be compared to the Jin people, so they are headed by Chen An, but the king should also be a Jin person, and he is a Jin official, how can he put Chen An in his eyes?
In fact, whether it is Chen An or Wang Cai, the grade is not high, and they are all non-staff personnel - Chen An directly belongs to Sima Bao, the king of Nanyang, and Wang Gai directly belongs to Zhang Yu, the Duke of Xiping, and it is difficult to distinguish between the superior and the inferior. Therefore, Wang should be reluctant to accept Chen An's command, and at his instigation, Tuyuhun Xianbei and Chiting, Mozhi, Wuyi and other Qiang people also changed camps one after another.
Although these tribes are also nomadic or farming in Qinzhou, the problem is that Sima Bao is not the assassin of Qinzhou - the real Qinzhou assassin Pei Bao was not attacked and killed by him - plus he often asks for tribute and even bribes, greedy and insatiable, and the foreigners are generally dissatisfied. And Zhang Yu succeeded his father Zhang Liangzhi, but he governed Liangzhou quite well, and Jin Rong was safe, so they gave up Chen An and turned to support Wang Cai.
For the sake of a question of command, the coalition forces held meetings all day long, arguing endlessly, and a few families and Qiang had old grudges, and took the opportunity to divide their camps, and scolded when they were in a hurry, and even planned to add fists and kicks when they were angry-fortunately, Chen Anli made a big move, and Wang should not be a vegetarian, enough to be separated, so he did not elevate the fight to a weapon fight.
For nearly ten days, the soldiers were on the border of Luoyang and Anding County, but it was difficult to move forward.
Among the attendees, one of the Qiang chieftains, Junda, whose subordinates had originally been nomadic in Fufeng County, was also moved by the wanderers to come to their aid—the only army that had arrived from the east. This person could have left a name in the corner of the history books, but at the beginning of this year, there was a famine in the north, and Taishou Lichang begged the military to provide funds, and the military was able to transport grain and grass to Niyang, but was defeated by Hu general Liu Ya......
However, history has changed, Liu Ya has long been defeated in Henan, fled to Pingyang, and it is impossible to come to Hexi again, and Lu Chang has long followed Lu Yun to flee to Sima Bao, the king of Nanyang - Beidi and Fufeng have become Pei's world.
Let's say that this day was noisy for a long time, and the meeting broke up unhappily again, and the military army rode back to his own camp, and did not return to the tent first, but ran to a tent next to him, and arched his hand outside the door and said: "The military university asks to see you." A voice came from the tent: "No need to be polite, come in." ”
Jun Da opened the curtain of the tent, stepped in, only to see a person in the tent, dressed in the clothes of a Jin minister, reading at the desk, seeing him come in, slowly closed the scroll, and asked with a smile: "How is today?" Jun Da smiled at each other and replied: "As the captain said, I also instigated it, and sure enough, it was still two points, and they did not obey each other, and there was no result." ”
This Jin Chen is none other than Captain Xirong, who is far away, so he has been hiding in the military camp and refuses to show his face. The military university inevitably raised his doubts again: "Captain You is the fifth rank for General Pei's personal order, and the president Xirong is military and political, how can Chen An and Wang should be compared with you?" And most of the departments came by order of the captain, and if the king came forward, he would be the commander-in-chief—why would he not meet them? Could it be that the general's intention to kill Lu Shuihu this time was only in Jiao Song, and he did not have the ambition to capture Peng Fuhu? "If that's the case, then why are we here, just to show our loyalty?
You Yao smiled and replied: "Linjing has been captured by the Beidi soldiers, and the matter of Lu Shuihu is entrusted to me by the general." In fact, he was a little uncertain in his heart, why did Pei Cai put such a heavy burden on his shoulders? I'm just a civil servant, and I haven't been in politics for a long time, so I've never led troops or fought before......
However, no matter what, if people treat me as a countryman, I will repay them as a countryman! Even if I completely put aside the soldiers and horses in the north and don't expect them to attack, I will use my own strength to command these scattered sand and Qiang, and attack the crowd with outnumbered, at least Peng Fubao will hurt!
As for the reason why he hid his whereabouts for several days and refused to show up, You Yao explained to the military university in this way: "The various departments are not subordinate to each other, and the courage is uneven. It is to let them be noisy first, so that Chen An and Wang should know that the hearts of the people are not attached, and I will come forward to lead them, and the two generals can only obey orders; And the army is defeated here, and if it does not advance for a few days, Peng Hu will also despise me, wait for his arrogance, and wave his army to attack, there is a chance of victory. ”
This is only a military reason, one is to facilitate his own control of the whole army, and the other is to show the enemy weakness, in fact, in the political aspect, his reasons are more sufficient, but it is not convenient to declare them.
When You Yao first served as the captain of Xirong, he had a long talk with Pei Cai. Pei Gai first encouraged him, saying: "In the two states of Yong and Qin, the Jin people are scattered, and Xirong is more multiplying, attached to Jin Ke'an, if Hu Kou is attached, one person advocates chaos, and I am afraid that the counties will fall together - if I want to determine Guanxi, I must first determine Di and Qiang, and I have high hopes in Yuqing." Then he asked Youya, how do you think you should settle these people inside and outside the country?
You Yao replied: "They are also my Jin people, but the local shepherds see them as aliens, and they are unkind, so they have different hearts. Now we should treat it with leniency, so that Jin Rong is safe, and then check its elite riding for use, so that Hu Kou can be attacked in the east. ”
Pei Gai shook his head: "Qing has one thing, not the other." Then he explained: "Heterogeneity is originally heterogeneous, and it is very different from my Chinese heart. If it is scattered and the people are united, it can gradually turn into Chinese. However, many of them live in clusters, each with its own chieftain, such as the Jin people, the big families, many acres of land, dependence, and even counties and counties, etc. However, the son of Jin Tianzi is here, and the family can get Shi Nai'an, that is, Hu Koulai, and also fight against it with many data dock forts. The chief of Xirong is different, there is a step to advance in Jin, and in Hu Ke is the general, if Hu Kou comes, he will descend one after another......"
You Yao frowned and asked, "With the intention of Ming Gong, do you want to start the road of Rong Ren and official?" ”
Pei Gai said with a smile: "Ordering the chief of Qiang to be a general and a lieutenant, this is also the meaning of the past dynasties, but in the end, he can't be really given, and he still guards his department." If they have loyalty, and have a considerable talent, I can also recommend them to the court, but there will not be many—is the court my court alone? Is the world for me alone? Even the Son of Heaven cannot do this, otherwise it will cause the Chinese to betray morality. What I said is that Yun is naturally restless, and he does not want to be simple......"
Later, the Sui and Tang dynasties mixed hundreds of ethnic groups, and countless foreign ethnic groups and even foreigners could also enter the court as officials, so the rebellion and chaos of foreign ethnic groups in the territory were not much less than those of the Han and Jin dynasties? As for the Anshi Rebellion, it is chaotic on the surface, but in fact, it is a chaos between important towns and mercenaries, and you can see that more than half of the people under the command of An and Shi are not all Han generals and Han soldiers.
However, this is after a long and dark period of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the Hu tribes gradually integrated into the Chinese nation, to be able to form an open mind, now there is no such soil, if you want to plant flowers, poisonous weeds will grow. Besides, even if I can not look at Di and Qiang as barbarians or even beasts, what about the rest of the people in the court? How many of my men are? The social environment and public opinion are here, if you want to go against the trend, even if I am the emperor, it is estimated that I will be pointed out by thousands of people, and I will die without a problem.
Not to mention anything else, the Jin family is willing to leak some power from the palm of his hand and hand it over to foreign clans? They won't even give it to the Hanshi!
Pei Gai wanted to take advantage of this turbulent period when the family suffered a serious blow to gradually pull some of the poor families into the ruling class, to put it bluntly, it was to expand the source of rule and strengthen the mobility of the upper class, only in this way could the regime be stable. But this must be boiled in warm water, slowly, before achieving certain results, how can I still have the energy and strength to tolerate so many foreigners?
In later generations, some people on the Internet clamored that they wanted to kill all the foreigners, which was a once-and-for all-for-all solution, but the problem is that even if Pei should barely be regarded as a nationalist, he is by no means a racist, and he is not willing to engage in racial oppression or even genocide, so it is not feasible to kill all foreigners. Even if Ran Min's butcher pointed his knife at the Qiang clan with the smallest number of people, didn't he be able to kill it? On the contrary, he completely cut off the foundation of his rule.
Therefore, Pei should guide you like this: "My long-term plan is to organize all the domestic and foreign tribes, all the farmers, into households, and slowly change their customs, just like China; Those who are nomads divide their tribes and limit their lands, so that the Chinese will keep them, not the chiefs of the tribes. However, this is all for later, and it is undecided today, and the new policy cannot be implemented.
"And in the past, Cao Cao divided the Xiongnu into five parts, and wanted to digest them, if it took time, it might be effective. It's a pity that the Jin Dynasty is not ...... The internal strife among the kings caused Hu Kou to reunite and cause a catastrophe. In the troubled times, Yu Xirong should also be as Qing said, caress it, restrain it, and borrow its strength.
"However, you should know that this is not a long-term solution. And Xijon is different from the Chinese, often afraid of danger and not virtuous, why not? The nomadic people, who are all fierce, and who cannot survive unless they live in a group—are not like peasants, but are given land, and are not old enough to make ends meet—so the chiefs of the tribes cannot be abolished for the time being. However, we should also have insight into their internal situation, provoke their contradictions, and not make one man advocate difficulties, and all departments should obey.
"All in all, Qing must be enviable, and slowly divide and disintegrate, so that they know that they can live if they attach to Jin, and kill each other when they leave Jin, and no one can do it all. Follow these two ways, and Sijon will be safe. ”
Pei should know that in the original history, You Yao ruled Rong, mainly to show grace, and only picked a few people who really refused to bow their heads - for example, to eliminate the power canal - to start the knife, and to control Rong with Rong. I don't know how You Ziyuan practiced this ability, theoretically speaking, in the original history, he pacified the chaos and eliminated the void, and it would not be more than ten years today - Liu Yao would die in another ten years. In the past ten years, will a person's talent take a big leap? Maybe You Yao is very capable of fighting now, right?
Therefore, Pei Caicai handed over the important task of calming Xirong to Youziyuan, because there was no more suitable person available at hand, and Furong and Yongrong were the top priorities to pacify Guanxi. But at the time of his first life, he had to make it clear to You Yao, I don't want you to settle Xirong, but the result is to make the foreign clan sit big, and when the time comes, the Fu family and the Yao family will be able to sit on one side, and the descendants will still have the hope of the world!
After getting Pei Gai's teachings, You Ziyuan came up with such a trick, first gathered all the departments of Xirong, but he deliberately did not show his face and let them pinch each other - through the ventilation report of the military university, which department has a grudge with which department, which department is attached to which department, and You Yao has already mastered it. From the current point of view, there is no one in Xirong who can raise his arms and shout, many Yuncong generations, as long as the balance of power is maintained in the future, the powerful are suppressed, and the weak are supported, it should be able to prevent the situation that General Pei is worried about, right?
However, these few days are almost enough, as the military university said, if You Yao does not show up again, maybe the coalition army will disperse. Therefore, You Yao quietly left the military camp that night, and then went around in a circle in the field, pretending to have just arrived in a hurry the next day. When Chen An and Wang heard the news, they hurriedly led the chieftains and generals of all departments out of the camp to greet each other and let them enter the big tent.
After entering the account, You Yao honestly and unceremoniously ran to the throne - his official position is the highest - and then looked around at everyone and asked: "The court summoned you here to attack Peng Fu, why did you waste a few days and refuse to enter the army?" ”
The military commander hurriedly opened his mouth to help: "Because there is no commander, there are different opinions on how to attack, and there is no consensus, so it is ......."
You Yao's face sank: "In that case, do you think I can be handsome?" ”
