Chapter 5 Towards Unification Section 72
On this day, Sun Quan convened all the generals to discuss the military situation, and when he saw that all the generals were weak, he couldn't help but be angry: "Everyone, are you all waiting for Liu Bei's law to be promulgated? Do you know that others can copy Liu Bei's law, but we can't."
The generals were amazed. Sun Quan continued to explain: "Most of your families are from the north, and after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, they went south to escape the war, and the land you own was taken from the Shanyue tribe. Also, we are about to attack Jingzhou, there are many wealthy families in Jingzhou, and the land belongs to them, why are we fighting? You don't want to work hard, but make wedding clothes for others. β
The generals of the Sun clan were in high spirits and suddenly realized.
Yes, Cao Cao can implement the property law, because he was supported by the wealthy family to come to power, Liu Bei can implement the new law, because Qingzhou was ravaged by the Yellow Turban bandits, and the Hao family was slaughtered, and at the same time, Liu Bei laid a huge new territory, which is enough to support him to compensate the old landlord for the loss, what does Sun Quan use to implement the property law? If the old owners of those lands came to them, wouldn't the foundation of Sun's regime not exist.
However, is it okay not to implement the property law? Seeing that Cao Cao is also following Cao Cao's example, once Cao Cao also follows Xuzhou to promulgate similar laws, then the world's money will not flow to the north, if the wealthy families in Jingzhou know that their property can be guaranteed from Cao Cao, relying on the Liu Biao regime established by the wealthy families, will not fall apart and surrender to Cao Cao.
The important thing is that the wealthy merchants in Yangzhou are ready to move, they have bought the auction VIP card in the emperor's hand, and are ready to transfer money, and the generals are also waiting and seeing, if Sun Quan starts to change later, I am afraid that Yangzhou will not even have scum left.
Change, to die, to change, but also to die, Sun Quan is in a dilemma.
Or a minister who was close to Sun Yi suggested: "My lord, in the past, when Xuande Gong was in Lu'an, he once dragged Sun Yigongzi around the fields, and explained to Sun Yigongzi various ancient and modern imperial techniques, and the words of Xuande Gong have been recorded in the book." The minister has been reading this book for the past two days. He seems to have said that a method that can not only not recognize private property rights, but also seize the world, can just solve the current dilemma. It seems to be called 'I have your property at my disposal, and you don't want me to suppress it' - by the way, it is called 'land reform', and Xuande Gong said that this can win the support of the people in the shortest possible time and seize the world. Lord, if we also carry out land reform after conquering Jingzhou, deprive Jingzhou of the property of the wealthy in the name of rebellion, and let those who have contributed to us be rewarded, won't the generals take the lead. As for the implementation of the property law, wouldn't it be more beautiful to wait for a hundred years later, when the original owners of the property are all dead, and then implement the property law to protect the rights and interests of the heroes? β
Sun Quan asked unhappily: "Take the property of the wealthy families in Jingzhou to distribute - if we really do this, won't we be fiercely resisted by the wealthy families?" It is so difficult for our army to fight a Jiangxia. In case he sent spies to deliberately announce to the wealthy families in Jingzhou that we were ready to deprive them of their property, wouldn't the wealthy families fiercely resist our army while defecting to Cao Mengde like a tide, and then our army would be struggling, how would it develop? β
Left and right replied: "Lord, this emperor's technique is quite troublesome to explain, and after listening to what Sun Yigongzi said, he thought about it for many days before he figured it out." To put it simply, we need to distribute all the property to the peasants first, and take advantage of the peasants' hatred of the rich to launch the peasants into war in exchange for their response to our troops. After the country has been settled, find a reason for the farmers to hand over the land to the state, for example, to tell the farmers that they need to engage in collective farming. Lord, you think, the farmer gives the land to the state, which does not belong to you yet. In this way, the power to dominate the land returned to the lord, and at that time the lord did not decide who he wanted to reward. In this way, it can not only ensure that the people look at the scenery, but also ensure that the heroes are rewarded. β
Sun Quan was silent and asked again: "What else did Xuande Gong say?" β
Xuande Gong said that this imperial technique is a rare technique to seize the world, however, using this means to seize the world will lead to a decline in the credibility of the government, and in the future, the people may never believe the words of the government again. It will take a hundred years to slowly restore the credibility of the government. However, my lord, although this plan is dangerous, it is the only way at present. Besides, the world is in hand, and how to govern it is not up to us.
Now, Cao Mengde is formulating a law similar to Qingzhou, which is about to be announced, and the Jingzhou giants are swaying, if I don't wait to do it quickly, and when the Jingzhou giants run to Cao Mengde's side, my army is empty, but there is nothing to gain, how can the generals be willing? β
Sun Quan asked again: "You and I should explain in detail, how to implement this method?" β
Later, the Sun regime began to send Xiaozuo to infiltrate Jingzhou, trumpeting the view that the powerful were sitting on the land and lustful and that the peasants should rebel because they were in dire straits, and spread rumors that after the Sun entered the city, they would expropriate the land of the powerful and distribute it to the peasants in the name of rebellion. As soon as this statement came out, it really worked, Jiangxia guards opened the city gate at night, Sun Junbing occupied the whole city without blood, and Cai Mao only escaped and fled into Xiangyang.
After the news reached Qingzhou, Liu Bei smiled slightly: "It's funny, Sun Zhongmou also wants to follow suit." This policy requires several prerequisites, Sun Zhongmou does not have them, and now that the Central Plains are all strong and strong, Sun Zhongmou is so faithless that he will not know how to die in the future. β
When Liu Bei said this, Frustrated Shou was cleaning up the scattered papers beside him, and at this time, Liu Bei annotated the memoirs written by Frustrated Shou.
Since the invention of printing in Qingzhou, northern China has entered an era of knowledge explosion. In the past, a piece of bamboo slips could write six to twelve characters, and twelve pieces of bamboo slips were a volume, or a volume. A volume of books to write up to 144 words, to Qingzhou vigorously promote paper and hard pen calligraphy, a page can write more than 300 words, and the development of lead printing technology is a page of books can print 800 to 1,000 words, through the sorting of past classics, Qingzhou now has the amount of knowledge and information, it can be said that there is no ancient.
The memoir written by Frustration is the first biographical work in history to describe a personal experience in prose. The literati regarded writing books and sayings as the highest achievement in life. When he was alive, he was able to record the prosperity of following Liu Bei and founding Qingzhou, and his heart was full of pride, so he specially chose the vernacular (colloquial) style to write this work of Genesis, and the title of the book happened to be named "Genesis" by Liu Bei.
In order to let this historical precedent biographical work circulate for a hundred years, Liu Bei also took an extremely serious attitude towards Frustrated Shou's book, adding annotations almost paragraph by paragraph.
The first volume of frustrated silk wrote 30,000 words, from Liu Bei's army to suppress the Yellow Turban Rebellion, to Liu Bei's quelling of the Le'an rebellion, and narrated all the events he had experienced, including many of the touting and self-showing off. Liu Bei's annotations are very simple. For example, when Liu Bei preached that Liu Bei recruited displaced people to form an army, Liu Beijia's annotation explained in detail the formation of the army, with a squad of ten people, a platoon of five squads, and a battalion of five platoons......; When Liu Bei preached about Liu Bei's attack on the Yellow Turban Army, Liu Beijia's annotation detailed the unfolding of the battle formationβthe snare drum controls the pace of the soldiers, how many drum beats are beaten, how many drums are beaten per minute, how many steps the infantry takes, how long it takes for the whole formation to unfold, how to use soldiers, how to fight, how many military supplies are used, ......; Here, Liu Bei first put forward the concept of speed, and used the language of staff officers, elaborated on the way of numerical measurement in the process of combat, because in the book, for each battle, Liu Bei explained in detail the formulation of the battle plan, as well as the implementation of the battle plan, since then, this book has become a must-read book for students of staff military disciplines.
Liu Bei's annotations not only contain military content, but also a lot of macroeconomic planning content, for example, when Guangrao was established, the annotations on the outer eight townships exceeded 30,000 words, Liu Bei explained in detail the geography, climate, and soil characteristics of Guangrao, and explained what kind of commodities are easy to develop in such a geographical and climatic environment, and the analysis of each commodity finally became a model for market research. Since then, businessmen have used a similar approach to market research to determine the direction of their investments.
For another example, Liu Bei has a detailed explanation of the planting of cash crops, where is suitable for growing grain, where is suitable for growing fruits, where is suitable for planting grass and grazing, and even some methods of grafting fruit trees are mentioned in the book......
Eventually, the book became a sensation in the Central Plains, and the princes regarded it as a book of emperors to study the techniques of governing places; Military strategists regarded it as a military work, studying the art of war, the formation of troops, and the training techniques in it; Farmers use it as a planting guide, to study the improvement of crop varieties, and to maximize the return on land......
Frustrated Shou only wrote more than 30,000 words, and when he saw Liu Bei's tireless annotations, he realized that his book would be famous through the ages. The people of Xiangyang are rich, the rivers are vertical and horizontal, the land is fertile, and the capital of the emperor is also true, but Sun Zhongmou is doing this, and I am afraid that the rich businessmen in Jingzhou will have no legacy. At that time, although Sun Quan was in Jingzhou, he was not to be afraid. β
Frustrated Shou's words are tantamount to secretly touting Liu Bei's wisdom, and the official has achieved the level of frustration, and there is no need for flattery, so Frustrated Shou's praise turned several times. If it weren't for Liu Bei's understanding of the frustrated mentality, he really wouldn't have felt the taste.
Liu Bei tapped the table with his knuckles, and said thoughtfully: "One Xiang and two benefits, Sun Quan's trouble, Jingzhou will be difficult to do in the short term, I am afraid that Cao Cao will understand this, if he transfers troops to specialize in Hanzhong and regain Yizhou, Cao Mengde's strength should not be underestimated." β
Frustrated Shou suggested: "The lord has buried the meat thorn of Lu'an in the south, why don't you let this meat thorn play a good role?" Yuan Shu was defeated, and there were more than 100,000 remnants of the army collected by Lu'an, if they were allowed to go south and invade Jingzhou, wouldn't they be able to get a piece of the pie between Sun Quan and Cao Cao? β
Liu Bei shook his head and sighed, and said: "The thorn of Lu'an is not aimed at Liu Biao, but against Sun Quan, the more peaceful the development of Lu'an, no matter how big the territory of Sun Quan is, he will also be restless, and now it is not time for this thorn of flesh to play a role, I am not in a hurry." β
Liu Bei took a deep breath, stood up, paced around the table, and said: "In the spring of next year, there are two major events, the first is to handle Taishi Ziyi's marriage, according to the etiquette, they have been engaged for a year, and the wedding can be held; This winter, we need to build a large number of sea ships, train sailors, and wait until autumn, if Wen Ping has not returned, I am ready to form a ship to go south, and use iron and fire to open a trade route for my Qingzhou. β
Before he could interject, Liu Bei waved his hand to stop his words, his boots were crumbling, and he hurriedly circled around the room. Macedonia's southern expedition to India failed because the Nordic soldiers were intolerant of extreme heat, which produced thoughts and emotions. The main force of the Qingzhou soldiers is the northern Han Dynasty, and it is uncertain whether they can endure the scorching heat in the equatorial region, so it is necessary to train a group of southern soldiers in order to ensure the smooth progress of the war.
"I intend to contact the Jiaozhi family immediately and recruit 20,000 soldiers in Jiaozhi, what do you think?"
Frustrated Shou frowned slightly, and replied: "The Jiaozhi soldiers are not tolerant of bitter cold, once they participate in the battle, the short Jiaozhi soldiers lack the toughness and physical strength to keep up, I am afraid, they are not very useful......"
As he was talking, Frustrated Shou's heart moved, stopped talking, and asked tentatively: "After these soldiers are trained, lord, where are you going to let them station?" β
Since Qingzhou implemented the milk and egg plan in Mengxue ten years ago, the average height has increased by 5.7 cm (after World War II, Japan's milk plan has increased the average height of the people by 9.2 cm), and now, every morning, a glass of milk, an egg Qingzhou people are generally taller and stout than people in other states and counties.
"Three years, no matter whether Wen Ping comes back during this period or not, it is the time for my army to go westward, I am ready to train 20,000 sailors and 30,000 marine soldiers within three years, and go to Nanyang to show off their might.
Frustrated with great joy, he said happily: "I often hear merchants say that there are many rare and exotic beasts in the South Seas, and when the time comes, if I don't die, I will fight this old bone, and I am willing to follow the lord and go to see the scenery of the South Seas." β
Liu Bei patted his shoulder vigorously, laughed and said, "Okay, it's decided." β
Frustrated, he calmed down and asked uneasily: "Lord, is 50,000 horses too little?" β
"Not a lot, more than 500 years ago, there was an emperor named Alexander in Greece, who led 30,000 men and spent three years penetrating the entire Europa continent, penetrating the Great Eclipse (Persia), crossing the entire Arabian Peninsula, and hitting the Indian border. Our army uses Qiongzhou as a springboard to set foot on the Indian subcontinent, with more soldiers than Alexander, and the supply transportation is much more convenient than him. β
