The fifth piece of the general trend of the world Chapter 30 The proposed construction of Jiayuguan
Luoyang. []
Dong Zhuo's fire burned Luoyang into ruins, and now 30 years have passed, and after 30 years of reconstruction and repair, Luoyang has gradually recovered its former prosperity. The geographical location of Luoyang is much better than that of Xudu, and the transportation is more convenient than that of Xudu, so now, the prosperity of Luoyang is no longer under Xudu.
Cao Pi is still happy with Luoyang. When Cao Pi ascended the throne, he intended to make Chang'an, Luoyang and Yecheng the national capital, but this Liu Bei attacked him, and this move could only be stopped. However, in recent years, with the increasing prosperity of Luoyang, Cao Pi has spent nine times in the Luoyang Palace.
Now, Cao Pi in the Luoyang Palace began to sigh and sigh that his luck was not good and his fate was unlucky.
Indeed, since Cao Pi ascended the throne, Liu Bei first attacked and captured Yongzhou; Later, Sun Quan raided Hefei and occupied the entire Huainan. As for Xiahoudun, Zhang Liao and other generals left by Cao Cao, they also died one after another. Karasuma in the north has also begun to change recently, and what makes Cao Pi even more depressed is that Cao Pi's wife still makes trouble for herself.
Cao Pi was in Luoyang, but Cao Pi's wife Zhen was demoted to Yecheng by Cao Pi, and Cao Pi's new favorite Guo spoke ill of Zhen in front of Cao Pi all day long. A few years ago, Zhen made a "Tang Shang Fu", which happened to be an excuse by Cao Pi, so he sent someone to send a cup of poisoned wine and poisoned Zhen.
But it didn't end there. Shu, Zhen also gave birth to a son to Cao Pi, that is, Cao Rong.
It stands to reason that Cao Rong is the eldest son and should be erected. is the crown prince, but because of Zhen's original intention, Cao Rong is now only named the king of the plains. And now that Cao Pi has been on the throne for several years, he still has not established a prince, and the ministers of the court and the central government are persuading Cao Pi to establish a prince as soon as possible. For the position of the prince, Cao Rong is naturally the best choice.
There is a saying that the son is more expensive than the mother, because of the Zhen family. The reason is that Cao Pi does not want to make Cao Ei the crown prince. But Cao Pi's other sons either died early or were young, except for Cao Rong, Cao Pi had no choice at all. Helpless, Cao Pi had to delay this matter as much as possible.
Since ancient times, as long as the emperor has not appointed a prince, and at the same time the emperor's son is . There are more, and a set of good shows will be staged, which Cao Pi himself experienced back then. Now because Cao Pi's sons are all young, and some are still in infancy, this battle for the heir began between Cao Pi's concubines. These concubines made Cao Pi very annoyed.
Cao Pi's favorite Empress Guo, who is nearly forty years old, has no children, and estimates. There will never be any more of them. But maybe it's because Queen Guo still has such a glimmer of hope, so she also obstructs Cao Pi's establishment of the prince all day long, and now Cao Pi's harem seems to be calm, but secretly there is an undercurrent, and in order to win the heir, the concubines are doing everything.
In the court, Cao Pi lost the city and lost the land, surrounded by enemies on three sides, and when he returned home, he had to face the competition for favor and concubines to win the heirs.
Good at the beginning of the year. Wait, Xiahou Shang, who was guarding Xiangyang, came with a good news that the general Wen Ping led the troops to contribute to Jiangxia. This can be regarded as giving Cao Pi a little comfort.
Luoyang in late autumn can already be called cold, especially in the morning and evening, the cold air in the air penetrates the bone marrow.
Cao Pi put his hand into the wide sleeve and let out a long breath.
The chamberlain officer walked in with his head bowed, still holding a small jade cup in his hand.
"Your Majesty, please use the Dragon Tiger Pill! This is what Hua Shen Doctor has just refined today. The chamberlain said in a low voice, and at the same time handed the jade cup over.
Cao Pi stretched out his hand, took out an elixir about the size of a thumb nail from the jade cup, put it in the palm of his hand and looked at it, and then asked, "Have you all tried this medicine?" ”
"Back to Your Majesty, I've tried it all. When Huashen Medicine was refining, our people were always watching from the sidelines, and after refining it, we also found someone to try it. ”
"Yes." Cao Pi nodded, and then put the pill in his mouth with confidence.
After Cao Pi swallowed the pill, he only felt a feeling of dryness and heat in the dantian, and then, the surrounding scenery seemed to become like a dream, and Cao Pi felt an irrepressible impulse rise in his heart.
"Let's go, go to Li Guiren......
……
In the Dan room, Hua Tuo was constantly fiddling with the medicinal materials in his hands.
Wang Xiaohu leaned over from the side, still holding a medicine mortar in his hand.
"Teacher, this medicine, I have already chiseled into powder. Do you see if it works? Wang Xiaohu handed over the mortar.
Hua Tuo glanced at the medicinal powder in the mortar, smiled and nodded: "That's right." ”
At this moment, Cao Pi's internal officials walked in from outside.
"Doctor Hua, are you there?"
"The old decay is here, the old decay is there!" Hua Tuo hurriedly greeted him and asked, "That Dragon and Tiger Pill, Your Majesty has also used it?" ”
"Yes, of course. His Majesty also said that this Dragon and Tiger Pill this time is good. The internal servant official smiled: "Doctor Hua, I have heard of your medical skills for a long time, but I didn't expect you to prepare this kind of elixir, and it is so powerful...... But it's a pity......"
"What a pity?" Hua Tuo hurriedly asked.
"It's a pity that I'm a eunuch and don't have the opportunity to enjoy your elixir." The eunuch said, secretly approached Hua Tuo's side, and asked quietly: "Doctor Hua, let me ask you, do you have any medicine there, can you grow that thing again after eating?" ”
"Well...... What ...... this" Hua Tuo hesitated for a moment before he spoke: "You are really joking, how can this thing grow." ”
"Hehehe, I'm just asking, just asking." The eunuch laughed dryly twice, then turned to leave.
"Teacher, it seems that Your Majesty likes this Dragon and Tiger Pill you have refined very much...... Wang Xiaohu said.
"Of course, this thing is liked by men." Hua Tuo coughed dryly, and then said, "What's more, I also added a little material to it." ”
"A little material? Master, what did you add? Wang Xiaohu hurriedly asked.
"Good boy, have you ever heard of 'Five Foods'?"
"Five food scatters? Of course I've heard about it. Master, didn't you say that although these five food powders are medicines, you must not eat too much? ”
"Yes, these five food scatters must not be eaten too much, if people eat too much, they will be delirious. If it is used in excess, it can even be fatal. Hua Tuo paused, and then said: "But these five foods will make people feel dependent, make people want to stop, and those who are not great Yi cannot quit." ”
"Teacher, did you add five food powders to the Dragon Tiger Pill?"
"It's not five eclipse, but it's three points more powerful than those five eclipse. After Cao Pi ate it, he promised that he would not be able to stop. ”
Wang Xiaohu hesitated for a moment, and then asked: "Teacher, don't you often teach me, we practice medicine in order to cure diseases and save people, but you ...... it."
"Am I harming people?" Hua Tuo sighed helplessly, and then said: "Apprentice, let me tell you, as a doctor, I should naturally treat diseases and save people, but we need to keep this useful body to cure diseases and save people." I'm just doing it for my own preservation. ”
"Self-preservation?"
"Yes, self-preservation...... In vain, this matter is related to the death of the first emperor. If I don't do this, then Cao Pi probably won't allow me to live anymore. Only by letting Cao Pi know that I am still useful, Cao Pi will not kill me. That's why I added some ingredients to this Dragon and Tiger Pill, so that Cao Pi couldn't stop after eating it, so Cao Pi was reluctant to kill me. ”
"Then teacher, will these things you add be harmful to the human body?"
"Yes!" Hua Tuo nodded: "And it's better than those five food scatters." Now Cao Pi only eats one grain a day, and there may not be much problem for twenty or thirty years, if it is two grains a day, the eater will die for ten years, and if he eats five grains a day, it will be good to last for a year. ”
"What, this medicine is so powerful?" Wang Xiaohu was frightened.
"Of course it's amazing, it's not amazing, how can it make Cao Pi want to stop!"
……
Cao Pi opened his eyes slightly, just now Cao Pi seemed to feel that he was like being in the clouds, and he had whatever he wanted in his head. Cao Pi even led his troops to sweep Jiangdong, invade Chengdu, and dominate the world, but at this time, this dream suddenly woke up.
"Hey...... Dreams are just dreams after all! After returning to reality, Cao Pi sighed slightly, the reality is completely different from the dream just now, in reality, it is internal and external troubles, but in the dream, Cao Pi wants what he wants, he has it. Cao Pixian is already a little reluctant to return to this cruel reality.
"Someone." Cao Pi snorted softly, and the two eunuchs immediately walked in from outside.
"What time is it?" Cao Pi asked slowly.
"Back to Your Majesty, just after the time."
"Just after the child? It's still early, and I can sleep again. Cao Pi let out a slight breath, and suddenly, a trace of longing rose in Cao Pi's heart, eager to return to the dream where he could do whatever he wanted just now.
"Come on, go and get me a Dragon Tiger Pill again."
……
Shou Chun.
Sun Quan looked at Zhou Yi and Xue Zong in front of him with a smile on his face.
Zhou Yi is the son of Zhou Bin, Zhou Bin was also an old courtier in the Sun Ce era, it can be said that Zhou Doi father and son are serving the Jiangdong Sun family for two generations, and because of this, Zhou Yi is deeply trusted by Sun Quan and was appointed as a general at a young age.
A few days ago, Sun Quan ordered Zhou Yi to go to the front line of Poyang to inspect, but unexpectedly, Zhou Yi actually brought a great news, that is, Zhou Yi appeared in Poyang Huanglong and the phoenix were born.
Zhou Yi immediately rushed back to Shouchun overnight to report the great news to Sun Quan. Although Sun Quan also knew that this thing was eighty percent false, Sun Quan was very happy to listen to this Jia Hua.
At this time, the crown prince Xue Zong was on the side, this Xue Zong liked Zhou Yi, and when he heard that a yellow dragon and phoenix were born, he immediately stood up and said that this was a godsend auspiciousness, indicating that Sun Quan should ascend the throne as emperor, succeed to the throne, and obey the will of heaven.
Sun Quan wants to be the emperor for a day or two, the last time he mentioned this matter, he was pushed back by Zhuge Jin, and now Xue Zong mentions this matter again, which is exactly what Sun Quan wants. Sun Quan naturally smiled happily.
However, Sun Quan can't mention such a thing as the emperor, this kind of thing has to be brought up by his subordinates, and then Sun Quan himself will shirk it, and finally he can conform to the will of heaven and the trend of the times, and ascend the throne and become the emperor. If you propose to be the emperor, I am afraid that you will be ridiculed by the people of the world.
Since ancient times, as long as there is power in the hands, there will definitely be no shortage of these sloppy people under his hands. Soon, Sun Quan's courtiers who liked to pat on the back came to the table, saying that Xiangrui was born, but to tell Sun Quan that he should immediately ascend the throne and succeed to the throne.
Today's Soochow, a few ministers who are more able to speak and dare to admonish, are almost sick and dying. Those who stayed, such as Gu Yong, Zhuge Jin, Bu Qiu and others, were all very cautious people, and they would never risk their lives to admonish the emperor, so for a while, there was only the voice of singing praises in the court.
At this time, Cao Zhen led the army to attack.
So Sun Quan discussed with a few confidants and generals, and took advantage of this opportunity to ascend the throne, which happened to boost the morale of the army.
In October, Sun Quan was proclaimed emperor, with the country name Wu and the year name Chiwu.
The so-called Chiwu is the meaning of the sun, and this era name was proposed by Xue Zong. At the beginning, Cao Pi called the emperor, because of the Yellow Dragon, so he called the year name Huanglong, and Xue Zong felt that Chiwu, that is, the sun, was much bigger than Huanglong, so he proposed that the era name be Chiwu.
At the same time, Sun Quan fixed the capital of Shouchun, posthumously crowned his deputy group of broken generals Sun Jian as Emperor Wulie, his mother Wu as Empress Wulie, Sun Ce as King Huan of Changsha, and the eldest son Sun Deng as the crown prince. The control imitates the official position of Shu Han, the prime minister is a civil official, served by Gu Yong, and the general of the military attache is held by Zhuge Jin, as for the hussar general and the chariot general, 6 Xun was appointed as a general, and the official title is second only to the general. All other officials will be rewarded.
Sun Quan was called the emperor, which also made the third emperor appear in the Central Plains, and the three parts of the world were completely formed.
Among them, Cao Wei's side occupied Youzhou, Bingzhou, Qingzhou, Jizhou, Xuzhou, Yuzhou, Yanzhou, Sili, Yangzhou, Huaibei, and Nanyang and Jiangxia counties in Jingzhou. Counting the Central Plains is almost under the control of Cao Wei, when the Han Dynasty won the victory, these places were all populous states, but now these places are the main battlefield of the Yellow Turban Rebellion and the war of the princes, so many years of serious population loss, vitality is greatly damaged, now it has only been peaceful for ten years, the younger generation has not grown up, but if it is in the long run, the war potential of Wei should be the largest.
Sun Quan's state of Wu occupied Jiangdong, Huainan, Jiaozhou, and Jingzhou, with the exception of Nanyang and Jiangxia. Most of these places have not been affected by the war, and the people live well, but at the same time, the population of these places is relatively sparse, and Jiaozhou is even more inaccessible, and the southeast of Jiangdong is still the place where Shanyue lives, Jingzhou is the land of the four wars, and only the situation in Huainan is much better. The land of Huainan is fertile, and the Great Plain of Xuzhou is in front of him, and Sun Quan has a Jiangdong naval army, which can fight in Huaishui, compared to it, it is relatively easy to defend Huainan. However, on the whole, Jiangdong is still limited by population, and it is impossible to gather a large number of people in a short time.
Adou's Shu Han controlled Yizhou, Yongzhou, and Liangzhou.
Yizhou is the largest state in the Han Dynasty, of which Hanzhong and Chengdu Plain are important grain producing areas, after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Yizhou became the most populous state in the Han Dynasty. In addition, Shu Road is difficult to travel, and Yizhou is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Now with the addition of Yongzhou and Liangzhou, Shu Han has occupied the territory of Qin during the Warring States Period.
At that time, the Qin Dynasty once relied on these places in this pass to dominate the world, and then Liu Bang also relied on Guanzhong, chasing the Central Plains, and finally defeated Xiang Yu to win the world, so in the eyes of the people of the Three Kingdoms era, this pass is the land of Longxing. At the same time, Guanzhong is rich in products, Yongzhou is fertile for thousands of miles, so the folk customs of Qin are even more fierce.
Speaking of population, the three states of Shu and Han are definitely not as good as the vast Central Plains occupied by Wei, and in terms of resources, the gap with Wei is not very large. But for today's Shu Han, the difference is two levels.
One is Tongguan, and the other is Wuguan.
At that time, Qin had four stops. One is the Hangu Pass in the east, and the other is the Wuguan Pass in the southeast, both of which are guarded against the six countries of the Kanto region. Now Tongguan has been established and has gradually replaced Hangu Pass.
One of the other two fortresses is Xiaoguan in the north, which is connected to the Great Wall of Qin, in order to guard against the Huns on the grasslands in the north. Now Xiao Pass has been burned down by Cao Pi, but Adou has ordered Xiao Pass to be rebuilt.
As for the last one, it is Sanguan, which was established by the King of Qin in order to guard against the Ba people in Shu, but later the Qin State conquered Ba Shu and pacified the Ba people in Shu, and the Sanguan was slowly idle.
Tongguan and Wuguan are still in the hands of Cao Jun, both passes are easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it will be difficult to recapture for a while and a half, but Wei is now busy with the war in Huainan and has no time to take care of Yongzhou in a short time, so Chang'an does not need to worry about it for the time being.
After defeating the Qiang people, Adou had not had time to return to Chang'an, and his eyes had already fallen to the Yumen Pass in the west.
The Yumen Pass was set up by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, because the jade from the Western Regions had to pass through here when it was transported to the Central Plains, so it was named Yumen Pass. The Yumen Gate of the Han Dynasty was located in the small Fangpan City in the northwest of Dunhuang, which was an important town on the Silk Road in the Western Regions. However, due to the chaos in the world at the end of the Han Dynasty, the Western Regions Protectorate existed in name only, and Yumen Pass gradually became deserted.
For Adou, now the war in the Central Plains is too busy to take care of itself, and there is not much effort to manage the Western Regions, so Adou is ready to move Yumen Pass eastward, from Dunhuang County to Jiuquan County, to facilitate management.
At the same time, Adou remembered the era in which he lived, at the end of the Great Wall, not far from the east of Yumen, there was a Jiayu Pass, known as the first pass in Hexi, which was also the starting point of the west of the Great Wall.
Shanhaiguan and Jiayuguan, as the two ends of the Great Wall, naturally have their reason, from the topography point of view, Jiayuguan is close to the mountains and rivers, guarding the canyon area of about 30 miles wide from north to south, the valley of the Lai River in the south of the canyon, and constitutes the natural barrier of the pass, in comparison, the establishment of Jiayuguan is more cost-effective than moving east to Yumen Pass.
————————
The text above is 5o23 words, and then the gluttonous worm has to talk nonsense, because the matter is a bit big, and it is calculated that there is no cost if it is not six thousand.
Regarding the so-called Wuhu Chaohua, the history is said by the writers of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. In fact, the Five Hu and Sixteen Kingdoms is a very successful national integration in Chinese history, and there is also a saying that there are no Han people after the Sui and Tang Dynasties, which means that after the Tang Dynasty, the national integration has made China no longer have the so-called orthodox Han people.
In fact, it is difficult to define what a Han Chinese is. For example, at the end of the Shang Dynasty, the people in Shandong were called Dongyi, and after that, the people in Shandong also became Han Chinese; During the Warring States Period, the people of Chu were called Jingman, and in the Han Dynasty, the people of Jingzhou also became Han people; During the Three Kingdoms period, people in Zhejiang and Fujian were called Shanyue, but looking at the Eastern Jin Dynasty, only these people in the south of the Yangtze River could call themselves Han Chinese. Emperor Wen of Sui has one-half of the Xianbei blood, and Tang Taizong also has the blood of the Xianbei people, which is the result of national integration.
For another example, pick out a surname "Wang" with the most in China (this is just an example, not for a certain surname), and now China has the most surnames Wang, but there is a cloud in the history book "Di Nationality Luo" that "those who go out of Henan are Kepin; Those who come out of Feng Xu are the pincer-eared people; Those who go out of the camp state, Ben Goryeo; Out of Anton, Ben Ke Shibu. This is the king of the surname, and after the son is the king, he is called the king. "In the Wuhu and Sixteen Kingdoms, many ethnic minorities have changed their surnames to Han surnames, and now there are a few surnames without ethnic minority backgrounds, even if there is no surname, but the surname is inherited from the father's side, how can the mother's bloodline be counted?
The gluttonous insect said so much just to tell everyone that from the current point of view, there is little point in arguing about these Han and Hu people, and now there is only a Chinese nation, under this framework, whether it is the Han nationality or other ethnic minorities, they are all contributing to the exhibition of the motherland and the rise of the Chinese nation! They are all Chinese, all compatriots of the Chinese nation, and there is no need to fight for a Han Hu person. Gluttony has always advocated the unity and common prosperity of all ethnic groups.
Next is the key content, about the national issue, those discordant voices should not come to the gluttonous book review area to discuss. The disharmony here refers to the question of the national policy of the day. For the sake of a harmonious society, and for the gluttonous to continue to write, please do not come to the gluttonous book review area to express their opinions. Today, the gluttonous worm was just deleted, and in the future, it can only be banned and reported.
