Chapter 18: Each with His Worries
Pei Gai clearly stated Huayi's distinction in the army, which naturally caused the generals to despise their comrades from other races. However, even if they are foreigners, there are generals who have achieved the level of Liu Guang and Yao Yizhong, let alone Wuling Manzhen...... Therefore, according to the propaganda of Sima's unified voice in the army, as long as you have a heart for Wanghua, usually do not speak bird language, and dress and customs are no different from Chinese, then you should not distinguish between each other, and we are still good brothers.
Therefore, after Lu Lou joined the three armies of the Great Sima and realized this situation, he had to confess to Guo Mo urgently, in fact, my ancestors were Chinese! Then he changed his color and changed his words, and now he finally recognized his ancestors and returned to his ancestors.
In fact, in this year, Chinese civilization was widely admired by the surrounding Rongyi because of its advanced nature, and people were proud to be Chinese - of course, the premise was that the Central Plains regime was strong enough. For example, Duan Ji Lu and Duan Piyan in the Northeast were awarded the title of Jin, and immediately changed to wear Chinese clothes. It's just that for the nomads, the traditional clothing of the Central Plains is not very convenient to move, and the nobles wear it from time to time, but the ordinary people can't wear it.
Most nomads have far less reverence for their ancestors than the Chinese, and there is not much psychological barrier to asking him to abandon his ancestors and change to Chinese as their ancestors - Liu Yuan took Liu Bang as his ancestor, and later Liu Yao felt that he could not be blinded, so he changed his worship. So why can't you get people? Because what is fake is fake after all, it is unlikely to be accepted by China without the efforts of several generations. And you can integrate, you want to climb the head of the Chinese directly, but it is difficult, that is, you are afraid of the situation, and you will not really treat you as a family.
After Yongjia, although most of the clans who stayed in the north submitted to foreign regimes, it was not until the Northern Wei Dynasty that they began to appear on a large scale, and the reason for this is also - if it were not for the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Southern Dynasties to raise it, the remnants shed tears and dust, and the king did not come, but no one would bow his noble head if he had a little heart.
However, in the three armies of the Great Sima, it was preached that as long as you changed customs and obeyed the king, you would be Chinese, giving foreign soldiers a convenient channel to quickly integrate into the collective, and in the melting pot of the army, it would be much faster to transform. Of course, with Lu Lou directly recognizing the Chinese ancestors, the probability of being accepted is three points higher.
Of course, as far as foreigners are concerned, they are more willing to be Chinese, and if they are grouped, then it is another matter, after all, heads and ideas are one thing, ass and interests are another. It's just that the Lu family was originally just a small family attached to Fu Di, and there were only more than 100 men and women with the same surname, so it was very convenient to change the vulgarity because of Lu Lou's words.
Now, if you talk about the highest-ranking general of Pei Jun in Qinzhou, it is this Lu Lou, who was promoted to the rank of lieutenant because he helped You Yao pacify the chaos in Luoyang.
Because the number of regular soldiers in Liutun Qinzhou was not large, there were more than 2,000 people in the Pei Cui era, and You Yao later brought 500 people, as for the commanders of various departments and battalions, they were all imperial Liu Cang before, and they successively returned to Jingzhao and Feng Yi.
According to You Yao's calculations and Tao Kan's considerations, Qinzhou had two or three thousand regular soldiers, plus three or four thousand auxiliaries and militiamen, and three or four thousand cavalry attached to the Jin Dynasty and Qiqiang, and there were Liangzhou cavalry as reinforcements, and the attack was basically enough. First, this battle is mainly to "encircle Wei and save Zhao", there is no need to start a decisive battle with the main force of the Void Division, and second, there are too many soldiers, and the road is far away, and the loss of grain and straw will be huge, but it cannot be drawn backwards.
It's just that the current Qinzhou guard is Lu Lou, although Guo Mo and You Yao have praised him many times, after all, one is to surrender, and the other is just an adult, which may not be reliable, Tao Kan asked: Do you want to order a general to lead the troops?
Pei Gai groaned slightly, then shook his head and said, "No need to appoint Zi Yuan." β
If you want to say that among the scholars who served Pei Gai, in addition to Tao and Pei, the greatest credit is that You Yao Youzi is far away, and only the military merits have gathered to retreat Peng Fu Protection, as well as the two things of pacifying the chaos of Luoyang, then Youzi knows the soldiers far away, and everyone is convinced. Therefore, Pei should say that there is no need to send other generals, and let You Yao lead the troops to Shangjun Keya, and Tao Shixing has no objection.
Although Pei should be accustomed to listening to the opinions of his subordinates, whenever there is a major event, he will discuss with his colleagues, but he easily does not express his position, and once he does so, there are not many people who dare to stand up - especially under the premise that Da Sima's idea is not too deviant, or completely ridiculous - this is called "a word". After all, it should be an official, unless necessary, no one is willing to follow the boss, even if the boss's order is wrong, as long as it is not too much, we can reverse the implementation stage slightly.
Pei Gai has also noticed this recently, and he deeply feels that the system of three provinces of Sui and Tang is indeed reasonable. Because under the three-province system, the imperial decrees are from the Chinese book and are reviewed by the subordinates, and the subordinate provinces do not directly face the emperor, so there is no need to be open-minded. The order of the subordinate rejecting the Chinese book is a department to a department, not a courtier to the emperor, and the waist is naturally much stiffer. However, because of this, the imperial power was gradually further mystified and sacred, and gradually even the people were anti-corrupt officials and not against the emperor - isn't this the case in "Water Margin" - the feudal imperial power was more stable......
pulled back and said that the reason why Pei Gai did not give up his life and took up the tour full-time was because of his inconvenience with Changshi and Sima Mingyan; In addition, You Yao is not only the assassin of Qinzhou, but also the captain of Xirong, and he can meddle in the miscellaneous affairs of the county in terms of authority - although you are the county guard, you are also Rong, and the wanderer crosses the border to kill you, which is justified.
The discussion was established, and the secretary was ordered to draft military orders. Pei Wei and Tao Kan should have retreated, but Tao Shixing still refused to leave, and his expression was a little embarrassed. Under Pei Gai's repeated inquiries, Tao Kancai mustered up the courage to say: "Kan has many children, and Da Sima naturally knows about it......"
According to later records, Tao Kan had a total of seventeen sons - of course, some died young, not yet minors, and his nominal ones, nine or ten - there were also more than a dozen daughters, in addition to the deceased brother Tao Cao also left him two nephews - Tao Zhen and Tao Yu. At present, except for the eldest son Tao Hong, who has died, the second son Tao Zhan who visited Zhou, and the newborn son Hu Nu by his side, the others are staying in their hometown of Xiaoyang County, Poyang County, farming. Pei Gai has asked Tao Kan many times, saying that I am short of manpower here, Tao Junzi's nephew, is there anyone willing to go to Chang'an? Tao Kan always uses words to prevaricate, either saying that the children are not talented, or saying that they are too far away from their hometown, and they are worried that they will not adapt to the water and soil......
But who would have thought that this time Tao Shixing took the initiative to say to Pei Gai, I have already sent someone to take my wife, children and even nephews to Guanzhong, and I am about to arrive in Chang'an, so I will inform Da Sima first. Pei Gai heard the news, and he was really overjoyed. He has been trying his best to win over Tao Kan, but he always feels that the relationship between the two sides is a little estranged, and Tao Shixing seems to be trying his best to maintain an ordinary relationship between superiors and subordinates, and is unwilling to really integrate into the semi-independent system of Guanzhong Xingtai. Pei Gai was puzzled by this - how did he finally get his eyes on it today?
Could it be the rumors and rumors that have been circulating lately?
immediately congratulated him on the reunion, and said Tao Jun, you have a lot of family, so I will order someone to build you a big mansion in Chang'an. It's just that when asked the question of who among his nephews is willing to be a celebrity, Tao Kan talked about him left and right, and deliberately vaguely past......
ββββββββββ
Tao Kan's family has not yet arrived in Chang'an City, but there is a person who has traveled thousands of miles to meet Pei Gai - it is the Huaihai Governor and Guard.
Logically speaking, local officials are not allowed to summon, and they are not allowed to leave the country to run around - it is impossible to go to Luoyang to meet the emperor, let alone come to Chang'an to visit Da Sima?
However, Wei Xun got Wang Gong's suggestion and went to Luoyang first, saying that although I control the Huaihai Sea and can't control the Yellow River, since I have been transferred to Le'an to open a port and prepare to aid the north, it is impossible for me not to fight the Yellow River. It has been reported that there are few places along the coast of Jizhou where ships can be berthed, so I can only transport materials and even soldiers to the city through the Yellow River. To this end, it was requested to explore the hydrological conditions of the Yellow River and build vessels suitable for inland navigation.
In this regard, the Luoyang Imperial Court has no reason to disallow it, but Wei Xun's request is very vague, and the imperial court's edict will inevitably fall into its trap - you didn't mention which section of the Yellow River hydrology I asked me to explore! Wei Yinzhi used this as an excuse to take a boat upstream, and ran from the city of Le'an County to the confluence of the river and Wei in one breath.
Immediately in Weiwei sent an envoy to release the boat, through Weishui, arrived in Weicheng for two days and nights, and then went to Chang'an by land, asking for a visit to Da Sima - that means, I am floating on the Yellow River and it is inconvenient to get off the boat, Ming Gong, you hurry down the official document to summon me, then I can run to see you.
Pei Gai didn't know why, so he immediately ordered. So two days later, Wei Xun smoothly "answered" the call and entered Chang'an City, and bowed down in front of Pei Gai. Pei Gai asked him why he came here, and what did he want to see me? Wei Yin replied:
"The ministers were appointed to Huaihai, and the overall planning was not effective, so that the merchants opened the sea route, and the trade was mostly private; Fu and General Su joined forces to disturb Youzhou in the north, and there was no big damage to the thieves......"
He harassed the coastal areas of Yan Country twice, which really disgusted Kong Chang, but to tell the truth, the blow to Qian Zhao was not powerful, and it did not have any impact on the battle situation in the Central Plains-
ββ¦β¦ is confused, I don't know how to serve the court. Because the thieves will not invade before the autumn harvest, they take advantage of this free time to come specially to receive the teachings of the Ming Gong. β
Pei should inquire about the situation in Qingzhou in detail, and Wei Xun took the opportunity to say: "General Su has recruited many Donglai villagers, the good and the bad, and the military discipline is sloppy, even Zhong Aihua is unrestrained. The day before, the minister and the prince went to the camp together to discuss reinforcements with him, but he had many soldiers and insufficient food, so he was only willing to send two or three out of ten to the north. We persuaded him to eliminate redundancy, but he refused to respond, and persuaded him to return to the Qingzhou Governor to the imperial court, and return to Chang'an, obeying the dispatch of the Ming Duke, and refusing to obey the ...... I'm afraid that it has the intention of self-reliance! β
In fact, Wang Gong had already secretly reported this matter to Pei Gai, and now Wei Xun came to say it again, Pei Gai couldn't doubt it in his heart - is Su Jun really so domineering? In the past, Bian Yan was in Xuzhou, and when Xi Jian was in Qingzhou, he never said much good things about him......
Of course, there is no need for Wei Xun to come to make a small report to him in person, Pei should think about it for a while, and then understand his meaning: Wei Zhi was worried that he would classify him as Su Jun's kind, so he hurried to Chang'an in person to show that he was no more than Da Sima. As for suing Su Jun, the implication is: I am completely unaccustomed to his behavior, so it is impossible for me to be with him, and Ming Gong should not doubt me......
At the moment, the kind words soothed him, and said that you just need to manage the sea trade, and I will not be harsh on the specific reinforcements and tired of the second, and do what you canβI know that your two brushes will not ask you to fight a naval battle, and you will not be able to engage in the Marine Corps for the time being.
Wei Xun stayed overnight, and then hurried home.
ββββββββββ
A few days later, Tao Kan's old wife Gong led a family of more than 100 servants to Chang'an City. On the evening of the same day, Tao Kan summoned several adult sons and nephews - Tao Xia, Tao Qi, Tao Qi, Tao Bin, Tao Cheng, as well as Tao Zhen and Tao Yu, and asked them: "Do you know why I summoned my family to Guanzhong?" β
Tao Xia said: "My lord is loved by the great Sima, and he is responsible for the important task of the station, and the general secretary is in charge, and in the atmosphere of the thief, I am afraid it will be difficult to return to his hometown in three or five years." Wives and concubines, children are separated from each other, and it is inevitable that they will miss them with affection, so they called me to come. β
This is a piece of soup, there is no nutrition, so Tao Cheng, who is impatient, immediately said after the brothers: "Da Sima reuses Daddy, the official residence is three products, and the descendants are all cloth clothes except for Brother Daozhen (Tao Zhan), how to inherit the adult's business, and the family's door?" Summoning me to wait here today is to recommend Da Sima. β
Tao Kan glared at him: "Shut up!" How can you be so frivolous and impatient as you be a ruler? I am afraid that the day you will become a leader, you will bring disaster to your family! β
Tao said that he was scolded by his father, and he couldn't help but be ashamed and angry, but he didn't dare to reply, so he had to shrink back. Tao Zhen asked: "Uncle has a far-reaching plan, he has been with Da Sima for a few years, and he has never summoned me to go north. The boy was stupid, and asked his uncle to speak clearly. β
Tao Kan twisted his beard, sighed long, and said: "Recently, the rumors inside and outside Chang'an have also been mentioned in my family letter...... Although Da Sima pinned his heart, and Tao was only willing to kill thieves for the country, he really didn't want to get involved in the turbulent current of political disputes......"
When the sons heard this, they couldn't help but be slightly surprised, and Tao Qi asked tentatively: "What do you mean, is it the big Sima...... Do you have the heart to do it?! β
Tao Kan shook his head and said, "I don't know the heart of Da Sima, but the heart of Zhu Pei can be known without asking." Today, the great Sima controls the internal situation of the court, and the general government outside, with tens of thousands of soldiers, stronger than the Chinese army, thousands of generals, and is better than the Chinese dynasty...... The situation is like this, even if you don't want to follow Emperor Wu (Sima Yan), you will inevitably become Emperor Yiwen (Sima Zhao).
"Since I have received his kindness, I can't say anything about it, and the thief has not been destroyed, the society has not been restored, the country is undecided, and I don't want to retreat to my hometown, and I will travel to the forest ......and springs."
Overall, Tao Shixing's dedication is very heavy, and he has a long lifespan, originally led the army for 41 years in history, and lived 76 years old, so he returned the military power to the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and then handed over the next day to return home, on the way to hang...... In other words, the military power was pinched until the day before death!
Now when he is in high spirits, you want him to resign and step down, and you won't do anything to kill him!
"If the Great Sima Chengwen Emperor's merits, I will always be good at assisting him, and if he becomes the cause of Emperor Wu, he ......" Tao Kan said this, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh - "Even if Your Majesty is willing to take the throne, the kings of Danyang, Runan, and Pengcheng are still there, and China will inevitably be divided." Especially the king of Danyang has been in the south for many years, and the government of the south of the Yangtze River is supplemented by Wang Maohong, and Wang Chuzhong has a heavy army, how can he be willing to condescend to others? Once the north and the south are divided, I will be in the north and you will be in the south, and I will be caught by others......
"Having many children and grandchildren is a blessing, but it is also a drag. I can't help but think of the rumored matter of Da Sikong (Liu Kun), because his son Liu Qun was captured by Duan Moqi, Duan Pi was suspicious, so he imprisoned Da Sikong, almost unfortunate...... If in the future, if you are robbed by Jiangnan, and Da Sima suspects me because of this, and Hu Nu and I die in the north, then I am afraid that the Tao family will be extinct! Even if it is endless, it will also be reduced to a common person, I have worked hard for half my life, and it will turn into smoke! β
Speaking of this, he glared at Tao Cheng again, and said, "I summoned you and others today, for the lives of all father and son, how can I ask for you and others?!" β
