Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai, Xun Yu two people, in Yingchuan Academy and acquaintance, the three of them are each other for each other's character and knowledge, so as to become close friends, when they were in Yingchuan Academy, in their small circle, the three of them are also known as Yingchuan three friends. (The first text is published in the reading room biquge.info)
Later, although Xi Zhicai and Xun Yu left Yingchuan Academy one after another, the correspondence between them was also quite frequent, especially in the past two or three years. Sima Ruyan can have a very deep understanding of Liu Yi from the letters between them, so Guo Jia is the same, and it can even be said that Guo Jia's cognitive understanding of Liu Yi is even higher than that of Sima Ruyan, a woman.
In the letters given to him by Xi Zhicai and Xun Yu, Guo Jia was able to understand Liu Yi from many aspects. Not only did he understand, but he also had time and leisure to study and ponder what Liu Yi did and the significance of what Liu Yi did, so he also guessed some of Liu Yi's ideas, including some political, military, and economic ideas. is also because he does not directly follow Liu Yi's side, but observes Liu Yi from the perspective of a bystander and guesses Liu Yi, which also makes the essence of the things Guo Jia sees faintly more profound than Xi Zhicai and Xun Yu.
For example, Liu Yi built two bases in a row, one south and one north, on the surface, it seems that he is under the banner of sheltering and relieving the homeless, but secretly he is under the banner of a clear monarch and a stable foot. However, in fact, Guo Jia felt that this homeless person was indeed relieved, and he was indeed stable, but from beginning to end, it didn't seem to have much to do with the Qingjun side.
It stands to reason that Liu Yi's two bases, under the banner of sheltering displaced people, under normal circumstances, the local government will not do anything to the base, strictly speaking, no matter what position the local government stands, it must cooperate and support the protection of the base. That is, if Liu Yi cooperates with the local government. The government is responsible for protecting the base, so there is no need for the base to have its own army. In the Han Dynasty, private armies were set up, and other complicity rebelled. And Liu Yi is still doing this, which actually means that Liu Yi is already doing something rebellious. No matter how nice it sounds, and no matter how Liu Yi can fool so many people to follow him to do these things, it is undeniable that Guo Jia can already see that Liu Yi actually had the idea of self-reliance from the beginning.
Well, or it can be deduced. All the officials in the world are dirty, and Liu Yi and the people who follow him can't trust ordinary court officials, or local officials. There are also enough reasons to set up their own army, because the army was established to clear the monarch's side, eliminate traitors, and finally revitalize the dynasty and revitalize the Han Dynasty. However, Guo Jia saw it. The army was founded, and it seems that systematic training was carried out from the very beginning of the army. Those sergeants also became official soldiers. In other words, soon after the formation of the army, it already had a certain combat power. Well, if the two bases really want to raise troops and join forces, it is estimated that they can pull out 100,000 people, if they really think about the side of the Qing monarch, they are really for the sake of the Han court. Then, when the first emperor died and the political situation in the imperial court was unstable, Liu Yi should have driven the army to the capital of Luoyang and eradicated a group of traitors, because at that time. I believe that no one has as many sergeant forces as Liu Yi, as long as Liu Yi pulls the army to Luoyang, then Liu Yi can become the most powerful person in the entire Luoyang capital in one fell swoop. Then support the new emperor, at that time, it will be easier to reorganize the dynasty. No matter how big it is, when Dong Zhuo's army quietly kills under Luoyang City, Liu Yi can also temporarily gather an army of 100,000 and deal with Dong Zhuo, instead of completely giving up Luoyang and letting Dong Zhuo control the court, so that now, Han is not like Han, and the world is in chaos.
From beginning to end, Liu Yi didn't seem to have the intention of moving the two base armies, even until now, the world's heroes had already raised troops to fight against Dong Zhuo, but Liu Yi didn't seem to pay much attention to it, and he still had the heart to marry a wife in Dongting Lake Xinzhou, a place far away from trouble.
Judging from these various circumstances, Guo Jia came to a conclusion that Liu Yi's relief of the people of the world and the revitalization of the Han Dynasty should be sincere, but the matter of the Qing monarch's side revitalization of the dynasty may not be so enthusiastic. Even, Guo Jia has the feeling that Liu Yi is sitting and watching the power of the court fall, watching the chaos in the world, and then cleaning up the mess.
Today's general trend in the world also proves that Guo Jia's various speculations about Liu Yi, Liu Yi should be a ambitious, versatile and ambitious person, he has a political mind and military vision that is different from ordinary people. Looking at the two bases, one south and one north, echoing each other from afar, although they are temporarily separated by a little far, the two bases are relatively independent, and at present, it is difficult to threaten the fundamental security of the two bases. If there is any way to connect the two bases, then the entire Han will be faintly in the hands of Liu Yi. When Guo Jia thought of this, he was really admired by Liu Yi's foresight and talent, if it weren't for the fact that he hadn't studied art and was not considered Mahayana, he was afraid that he would have wanted to see Liu Yi earlier.
I have to say that Guo Jia's guess of Liu Yi still makes some sense. Some of Liu Yi's thoughts are also guessed to be inseparable. Especially the current situation of Dahan, it is not unchangeable, and there is indeed a taste of Liu Yi sitting back and watching. But no matter what, Guo Jia has already decided that Liu Yi is an ambitious hero, and he is also a hero who really wants to revitalize the Han Dynasty, so not only does he not have any dislike for Liu Yi, but feels that Liu Yi is a master worthy of his follow. It is precisely because of this that he wants to take his mother to Luoyang to vote for Liu Yi, firstly, because he really wants to vote under Liu Yi's account, and secondly, it is also to heal his mother's relatives and his own illness.
It's just that he is not by Liu Yi's side after all, and he has not really come into contact with the officials in the Han court, and because he has always been behind closed doors after all, although he is smart, he has always been not deeply involved in the world, and there are some views on Liu Yi, so there is a slight deviation.
For example, Liu Yi didn't want to drive all his soldiers and horses to Luoyang to eradicate the traitor Qingjun, if Liu Yi really acted earlier and eliminated the eunuchs in the palace first, then there would be no murder of the first emperor Liu Hong. However, Liu Yitong's contact with Guò has completely lost confidence in the entire Han court, and a fundamentally rotten court is no longer worthy of Liu Yi's support. killed eunuchs, relatives, and powerful ministers, in addition to these, the general court officials are also uneven. Each has selfish and different intentions, how can Liu Yi support the emperor to reorganize the dynasty and revitalize the Han Dynasty? If you really want to talk about the side of the Qing monarch, I am afraid that almost all the officials in the court will die. In such a situation. How else could Lewy do such a pointless thing? If it is true that after killing those eunuchs, he can revitalize the dynasty and revitalize the Han Dynasty, then even if Liu Yi is burdened with some infamy and misunderstood by the world, Liu Yi will lead the army to kill all those eunuchs, and then after returning the power to the emperor, he will live in seclusion. No longer born. But the question is, will it be so simple to revitalize the Great Han? Definitely not. Guo Jia misunderstood that Liu Yi had the opportunity to change the chaos of the Han Dynasty but did not act, that is because Guo Jia is really not deeply involved in the world, and he has not really realized what kind of ** regime the Han court is.
However, it's okay, because Guo Jia misunderstood Liu Yi's meaning, but regarded Liu Yi as a far-sighted hero, and resolutely determined his intention to serve Liu Yi.
And because of that. He arrived in Xiangyang by chance, but he unexpectedly heard some news.
Guo Jia was seriously ill more than half a year ago because of her mother. had to leave Yingchuan Academy early and take his mother on the road to refuge in Liu Yi.
Stopping and stopping all the way, her mother-in-law fell ill many times, so that he had to stay temporarily, and only after his mother's illness was relieved a little before he could go on the road, but in this way, the Panchuan obtained after he sold all his property had also been used with a chime, fortunately, he barely reached a place dozens of miles away from Luoyang. But Luoyang has been in chaos. Around Luoyang, military horses from all sides were frequently mobilized, in and out, and passers-by, who were lucky, were looted and turned. You can leave or enter the city, and if you are unlucky, you will be killed directly by those officers and soldiers. Seeing such a situation, how dare Guo Jia rashly approach Luoyang with his mother?
Among them, there is another reason why Guo Jia did not dare to take his mother to Luoyang and enter the city. Because her mother gave birth to her at the age of fifteen, and now she is only thirty-three years old, and in other people's words, her mother is now only a young woman, when a woman is thirty-one flowers. Well, it's just a matter of age, it's very common to say, but even Guo Jia, who has only seen the young lady of Yingchuan Academy, Sima Ruyan, the great beauty, he also knows how beautiful his mother's appearance is, usually in the town near Yingchuan Academy, his mother is known as the first beautiful lady in Yangzhai, far and near ten miles and eight towns, it can be said that everyone knows and everyone knows, and its reputation has already spread to the county town, otherwise, it will not be called the first beautiful girl in Yangzhai.
To be honest, if it weren't for his mother's strength, or her mother's willingness, she wouldn't have known which rich family's wife she was at this moment, and she wouldn't have had to live such a hard life with Guo Jia. Later, for Guo Jia's studies, his mother sold her property in the county seat and moved to the town near Yingchuan Academy with Guo Jia, so as to avoid a lot of trouble. The people in the town are much simpler than the people in the county, although some people usually laugh at their mother, but no one dares to really treat his mother, so that he and his mother can live peacefully in the town for several years.
After her mother was sick, she was a pitiful sick beauty, and her appearance not only did not decrease, but increased a little more moving. Guo Jia took his mother to Luoyang to vote for Liu Yi, and along the way, he didn't know how worried he would be that others would see his mother's appearance, and he made his mother and mother look like a beggar.
However, no matter how ugly his mother is, he can't change the fact that his mother is a woman, Guo Jia was exploring the way, and he saw that those people who wanted to enter Luoyang City were ordered to clean their faces before they were willing to enter the city, among them, there was also a woman, because after washing her face, she was found to have a bit of a posture by those soldiers, and she was caught to do the beast's desire, and afterwards, the woman was also killed and abandoned in the wilderness naked.
Having seen such a tragic thing with his own eyes, how dare Guo Jia take the risk of taking his mother into the city?
It was also inconvenient to be in the wild with his mother, and the wild wolf robbers were infested, Guo Jia had no choice but to throw himself into the home of a classmate who used to study at Yingchuan Academy. His classmate originally had a little wealth, but when Guo Jia cheekily threw himself into his house, Dong Zhuo's cavalry suddenly came to his classmate's house, confiscated all his property, and killed several people.
At that time, Guo Jia and his mother hid in the firewood room of his classmate's house. Originally, Guo Jia planned to temporarily borrow a tile to live in his classmate's house, temporarily settle his mother in his classmate's house, and then he himself went into the city to vote for Liu Yi, and after seeing Liu Yi, Xi Zhicai or Xun Wenruo, he asked Liu Yi and others to help take his mother into the city. But something happened to his classmate's home, and his classmate fled away overnight. And Guo Jia and his mother suddenly became a person who could not be relied on, but fortunately, his classmate was on the run. gave a little money and Guo Jia that was not robbed by the sergeant, so that Guo Jia would not be penniless, but seeing that Luoyang was in front, he couldn't enter, which made Guo Jia not mention how anxious he was.
At that time, Liu Yi was only guarding a gate in Luoyang, and there were no soldiers and horses outside. The roads were all occupied by Dong Zhuo's army. In the correspondence between Xi Zhicai, Xun Wenruo and Guo Jia, they did not dare to mention the secret base of the Xishan Imperial Mausoleum, after all, the letter is not safe, and if half of the road falls into the hands of others, it may expose the secret camp in the dense forest of the Xishan Imperial Mausoleum. Therefore, Guo Jia didn't know where the secret camp of the Xishan Imperial Mausoleum was located, and he couldn't go there.
In a few days, Luoyang will fight. Guo Jia thought that Dong Zhuo had become a general trend in Luoyang, according to Liu Yi's character. Even the soldiers and horses of the two bases have not moved, and it is estimated that they will not stay in Luoyang for too long, and when the time comes, they will inevitably evacuate Luoyang and return to his two bases. In this way, Guo Jia took his mother and turned to Dongting Lake.
Walking to Wancheng, Guo Jia didn't know the relationship between Wancheng Taishou and Liu Yi, he didn't throw himself into Qin Jie, but looked for a boat to go south.
On the boat, Guo Jia's mother fell ill again. Fortunately, there was an old man on the same boat who knew a little about medical skills and relieved Guo Jianiang's condition.
To Guo Jia's surprise, the old man turned out to be a famous man Pang Degong. And Pang Degong and Mr. Shui Jing are friends, and Pang Degong naturally wants to take care of his friend's younger brother. In the conversation, Pang Degong also found that Guo Jia was young, but he was knowledgeable and behaved extraordinary, so he had the intention of loving talents and invited Guo Jia to Xiangyang City. And Guo Jia was also admired by Pang Degong's knowledge, and because he saw that Pang Degong seemed to be able to treat his mother's new illness, he agreed to stay in Xiangyang, mainly because Guo Jia also thought that even if he went to Dongting Lake now, Liu Yi was not there and there was no way to treat his mother, so Guo Jia did not refuse Pang Degong's kindness.
It was precisely because Guo Jia met Pang Degong that he had the opportunity to learn some news, and because of this, Xun Wenruo went to Luoyang to find Guo Jia for a long time and returned to Wancheng. Pang Degong is a famous man, and his whereabouts, as Qin Jie, who is the Taishou of Wancheng, naturally knows, and he also knows what kind of people are on the same boat with Pang Degong, because on that day, it was still the ship hired by Qin Jie for Pang Degong. In this way, Xun Wenruo knew Guo Jia's whereabouts and found Guo Jia in Xiangyang.
Let's talk about Guo Jia, he went to Xiangyang with Pang Degong. Pang Degong is full of economy, but his medical skills are average, he really only knows a little about fur, and he only sees that Guo Jia's mother may be suffering from angina, and because his body is too weak, he is infected with wind and cold, and he often coughs, and when he coughs, his heart hurts. To be completely cured, Pang Degong can't do anything. However, it was barely enough to alleviate the pain of Guo Jia's mother, and Guo Jia temporarily settled down in Pang Degong's house.
The so-called talk and laughter have a great deal of Confucianism, and there is no white ding, and the family of the famous man Pang Degong is full of some famous people in the world, and Guo Jia also benefited a lot from listening to them when they talked about literature. What surprised him was that Liu Biao, the assassin of Jingzhou, often visited Pang Degong.
Through Guo Jia's observation and eavesdropping, he was shocked to find that Liu Biao had already received the support of Pang Degong, and it was precisely because of Pang Degong's support that Liu Biao would completely control Jingzhou in such a short period of time. The reason why Pang Degong went to Wancheng was to create momentum for Liu Biao, and with him coming forward, those local celebrities in Wancheng, or the famous families, would stand on Liu Biao's side at that time.
And Guo Jia listened to the conversation between them, and also understood why Liu Biao was able to control Jingzhou in such a short time. That's because Liu Biao's political proposition is very suitable for the interests of the local scholars in Jingzhou, and because of this, he hit it off with many famous families and cooperated with Liu Biao to carry out matters of power.
Very simply, Liu Biao implemented a series of reforms to deepen interests in response to the situation of famous families in Jingxiang area. For example, if there are several wealthy families in a certain place, then Liu Biao proposed that the local government should appoint and recommend officials by their families, and these families would jointly govern the local area, and he would not bother with their daily affairs, as long as they paid him the taxes on time and in the amount, and the officials obeyed his orders, then he would completely delegate power to the local wealthy families.
The government is run by the family, which is what a temptation for famous families such as Jingxiang. The officials of the government are all done by the people of their own families, so whether it is in land, agriculture, commerce, etc., they have the final say, who will oppose Liu Biao's political proposal? This is the real reason why Liu Biao was able to take power in Jingzhou so quickly. His political proposition is to closely make friends with the wealthy families of the noble clan in the Jingxiang area and get the support of these wealthy families.
This trick can not be described as vicious, even if it is a famous person like Pang Degong, he was quickly won over by Liu Biao, because Pang Degong is also a famous family, and Liu Biao's political advocacy is in line with his interests.
Pang Degong invited Guo Jia to his house because he took a fancy to Guo Jia's talent and wanted to recommend Guo Jia to Liu Biao. Guo Jia refused Liu Biao's solicitation on the grounds that his mother was seriously ill, but Liu Biao naturally attached great importance to the person recommended by Pang Degong, and he asked the Kuai brothers, Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang to communicate with Guo Jia often, hoping to make friends and win over Guo Jia to serve him.
Guo Jia had already recognized Liu Yi as the master in his heart, how could he turn to Liu Biao? Moreover, Liu Biao's political proposition is also disgusted by Guo Jia, although Liu Biao can control the power of Jingzhou in a short period of time, but in the long run, it is not a good thing, in the future, after the development of those local noble families, it will be from the big to the master, and it will be difficult for Liu Biao to really control Jingzhou. Moreover, Liu Biao's practice of only forgetting the famous family and decentralizing power to the local nobles severely harmed the interests of ordinary people. It is conceivable that those famous families, once they take power, will definitely increase taxes and monopolize many industries, which will make the lives of ordinary people who are already miserable even more difficult. Guo Jia felt that following Liu Biao, there was no hope for the revitalization of the Han Dynasty at all.
Guo Jia instead learned Liu Biao's attitude towards Xinzhou New City and Liu Yi from the mouth of the Kuai brothers.
If Liu Yi hadn't built a new city in Xinzhou, and hadn't eliminated the water thieves and robbers around Dongting Lake, and ruled in an orderly manner, then Liu Biao might only have a headache about the current situation of Dongting Lake after taking office, and he would not have set his sights on such a wilderness as Xinzhou. However, Liu Yi built a city in Xinzhou for no reason, and its official office was completely under the command of the Jingzhou official office, which made Liu Biao feel very uncomfortable.
He felt that no matter how big Liu Yi was in the past, but now that he has been wanted by the current imperial court and is no longer a court official, then it is not in accordance with the rules to let Liu Yi rule Dongting Lake again, and he feels that as long as it is anywhere within the scope of Jingzhou, it should belong to him Liu Biao.
Guo Jia learned from the Kuai brothers that Liu Biao would take action against Liu Yi. Specifically, it is not ruled out that Liu Biao may send troops to Dongting Lake. At present, Liu Biao has gathered the officers and soldiers of the entire Jingzhou local government, about 100,000 military horses, most of which are trained by Cai Mao, and are forming a naval army.
Obviously, Liu Biao's purpose in forming a naval army was to deal with Liu Yi, at least, and also wanted Cai Mao to replace Liu Yi, the commander of Jingzhou's river guard, and in the future, he Liu Biao would control the Yangtze River waters around Jingzhou.
Guo Jia's worry is that once Liu Yi raises troops to participate in the crusade against Chongzhuo, once the army leaves Dongting Lake Xinzhou, then Liu Biao will use troops in Dongting Lake Xinzhou, and at that time, 100,000 troops will be killed under Xinzhou New City, and the foundation here will be difficult to keep and will be occupied by Liu Biao.
Guo Jia told Liu Yi the news he learned from Liu Biao's subordinates Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang, and said that he must beware of Liu Biao stabbing him in the back. (To be continued......)
