Chapter 286: "Warring States Period"
Zhao Wuxian waved his hand to let everyone get up, and secretly thought in his heart: "In this way, my name and reality in Zhenyi and Xiaqiu will be the same!" ”
He also knew the importance of matching the name with the truth, which was the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, the era of the classical aristocracy, and the ritual music was not broken. In history, even in the early Warring States period a hundred years later, the Three Jin Dynasty and even the Chen family divided the Jin Dynasty into Qi, and they had to obtain the legal canonization of Zhou Tianzi to survive.
Therefore, as long as his status in these two towns has not been determined, this temporary armed regime will not be stable for a day.
Now with Zhao Ying's strong proposal and Yang Hu's assistance, the matter of entering Lu has been completed, and the matter of compassion has been completed. However, compared to the original plan between him and Zhang Meng when they talked about the two of them in Shangqiu, all this was just the beginning!
Zhao Wuxian was in a very good mood, in the past half a month, because the prisoners were held more strictly, and he also adopted a gentle policy towards the foreign wild people in the city, coupled with his prestige and reputation in the battle of Zhen, which made the people of this place fearful. Just like the obedience of the Qi people to the Jin State after the Battle of Qi and the Battle of Pingyin, as long as the armed suppression of this place is maintained, most of the Qi people will obey, so there is no flame of resistance in Xiaqiu.
The spear throwers who put in the training also began to bear fruit, and with this good news, Wu Xian felt that this fifteenth birthday was not bad.
In addition, Zhao Ying also asked Feng Rin to bring a message, the Jin army has been fighting continuously for more than three months since the recruitment in April, although the intensity is not large, but the state soldiers in the barracks have complained, and they have sang:
"From Jin Sanqing, Pingwei and Lu."
"No, I'm worried."
The apprentices who were born as peasants were thinking about the grains that would be harvested in September, and they had no intention of fighting abroad, after all, most of the spoils of war belonged to the doctor, and they could only pick up some scraps and even bring autumn clothes from home.
Therefore, Zhao Ying claimed that the Jin army would return to the country and disband one after another in a few days, leaving only some of Sanqing's elite soldiers to go to the north to guard the enclave of Yiyi, in case the Qi people counterattacked.
The situation faced by the Qi people is the same. Guo and Gao Liangqing avoided the edge of the Jin army, and had temporarily retreated, retreating to the border to defend, and probably would not take the initiative to send troops to invade Lu before the end of the autumn harvest.
As for after the autumn harvest. The two months leading up to the snow fall were a time of crisis...... But judging from the current situation, there is no danger in the two towns where Wuxian is located.
Now his territory is sandwiched between several border towns of the Lu State, Qin, Gaoyu, and Yuncheng, and there is no need to worry about the Qi people crossing these places to attack for the time being. What's more, what the Qi people need to worry more about is the enclave of Yiyi, which is sandwiched between Qi and Wei by the Jin State, which is close to Dayi, Gaotang and Liaocheng. It's the big trouble that makes them choke in their throats.
"So unless the Qi people uproot Yiyi, they won't have much energy to recapture Xiaqiu in the south." Wu Xian said this when arranging defense for the Tiger Club, Mucha and others.
By the middle of July, Zhao Ying's Jin army had indeed returned to Jin from Liqiu, while Zhi and Bank of China Erqing took other roads. In this era, productivity was not high, not only were wars often seasonal, but even the marching routes were divided into batches, otherwise the cities and warehouses along the way would have to be eaten up.
The line of Liqiu and Zhenyi can also withstand the supply of more than 10,000 Zhao soldiers, which is the result of Zhao Wuxian tightening his belt after letting Dou Ping, a mathematics student, be a temporary planner and live within his means.
With power comes obligation. He could now understand why the small princes were overwhelmed by the overlord's demands.
Just like when he came, Wuxian also personally waited for Zhao Ying at Xiaoyi Sheephorn Pass in the east of Xiaqiu.
……
The sheep's horn was originally Weiyi, and when it came to the age of Qiren's Chengjiao, in the summer, Qi Dafu Wuyu ran to Jin with Liqiuyi, attacked Weiyangjiao, and took it. After that, it was returned to the country by Zhao Wenzi, and after Wei Hou Yuan was supported by the Qi Hou pestle to quell the civil strife, as a thank you, he dedicated this place to the Qi country. As a hundred small towns under the jurisdiction of Xiaqiu.
When the Jin army broke through the hill, they seized it together, and this kind of continuous replacement of several or even a dozen lords within a few decades was a common thing in the Spring and Autumn Period. It is also the easternmost point of the Dio Mound boundary. Nearby the river is full of Lu high fish.
After Zhao Ying ended the Wadi Alliance, he returned to his division and was warmly welcomed by Zhao Wuxian. You Wuzheng arranged for everyone to camp, but the wolf doctor Dou Li, who was accompanied by Zhiqiang, was nowhere to be found, and it is said that he took leave with Zhao Ying and went to Zhongduyi to visit his long-cherished Confucius.
In the tent curtain that was temporarily erected, Zhao Wuxian seized any opportunity to fulfill his son's filial piety. Help Zhao Ying take off his armor and serve him to put on a deep coat.
Zhao Ying was also very satisfied with this, and he said to his son: "For my father's return to the country this time, I must first form an alliance with Wei Hou in Dun Ze, let Wei Hou officially return to the Jin Alliance, and then agree to cede Zhen Yi to Lu State." In a few days, after you move the Dinggui in the temples of Zhenyi and Liqiu Society to the temple of Zhou Gong in Qufu, Lu Hou's envoy will come to canonize these two places to you, and from then on you will be the doctor entrusted to Lu Hou. ”
This ritual of the "feudal system" in the classical era, Zhao Wuxian listened to it with relish.
"In addition to giving them land and giving them to the people, will they also reward them?"
Zhao Ying stroked his beard and muttered for a moment and said, "However, you are only fifteen years old, just like in the Jin Kingdom, you are just a doctor for the time being." ”
Wuxian smiled: "The kid is just curious, the doctor of this small country is only a sergeant of a big country, but he is worse than the little pedestrian in the Jin Kingdom." However, the kid also knows that as a feudal lord of a land, the most important thing is not this kind of false lord, but the soldiers in his hands and the land and people under his rule. The state of Chu is only a viscount, but now it can expand the territory for thousands of miles, and the two countries of Duke Yu and Yu, who were once prominent in the Zong and Zhou dynasties, have now disappeared and become the counties of the Jin State. ”
Zhao Yinghuai was pleased: "Good, this is the great truth of the survival of the princes and doctors in the Ji world, you just know it." ”
His voice changed, and he said solemnly: "Wuxian, you tell your father, in the future in the Lu country, will there be an additional Zhao clan named Zhen Clan, or Liqiu Clan?" ”
Wuxian heard it, and Zhao Ying meant to ask him if he would take root in the Lu country and open a branch base of the Zhao clan here, just like the Handan clan.
This is related to the fate of himself and the Zhao family in the future, and Zhao Wuxian naturally can't be careless.
So he responded without hesitation: "Father, although Lu Bang is good, it is not as good as Jin Guo, Lu wine is weak, not as mellow as Jin wine; Although there are many mulberry elms in Pushang, although Lu Min is soft, it is not as good as Xinjiang's Ge Ma armor and big cloth sheep clothes. ”
His tone became more and more resolute: "As the poem says, the people of this state." Don't get along, return to me, my fathers! The root of the shirt is always in the lower palace, and he doesn't want to return to the Jin Kingdom all the time. Assist his father to become the ruler of the Jin Kingdom! For the Zhao family, open up the land, fill the treasury, store the people, let my clan for thousands of generations, and be willing to be Fan Wuzi. Reluctant to be a Berth. ”
Fan Wuzi once went to Qin, and later returned to the Jin State, and the Jin State Bozhou ploughed to Chu, completely became the doctor of the Chu State, and multiplied there.
"Great goodness! What a thousand generations! Zhao Ying waited for this sentence, now that he knew Zhao Wuxian's intentions, the block in his heart suddenly disappeared.
If you change to an ordinary person, being expelled from the country is already a dead end, and it is simply a dead future. But when it comes to Zhao Wuxian, he becomes more and more courageous. created this situation in the land of Pubei, and became a doctor in Liangyi, with 30,000 people, and it was not a small combat power to be able to recruit a division of soldiers. In fact, if you think about it carefully, if you stay in the country, because of Liuqing's constraints, it is impossible to even have such an achievement.
Speaking of this, Zhao Wuxian felt that it was also necessary to discuss the future development of the Zhao family in the Jin Kingdom. I had a deep talk with my father.
He is not in the country now, in terms of industrial and agricultural technology and other hardware, he can also remotely transfuse blood to the lower palace after the development of Pubei, but Zhao's grand strategy. But it had to be planned.
In case it enters the trap as in history, the fate of her sister Ji Huan and the fate of the Zhao family will have to be "unequal, unstoppable". He had already made a mistake last year and can't afford to make a second mistake!
So he bowed down and said, "Although the kid is trapped in the country of Lu. But it will definitely echo the things of the lower palace as if it were in China. If the father intends to fight for hegemony for the Jin, then he can be the Jin State Yuqi, Lianlu, point guard, Cao, and Song. If the domestic ministers want me to ...... Zhao"
He glanced up at Zhao Ying, and saw that he was listening attentively, so he continued: "If Fan, Zhongxing, and even Handan Xiaozong are plotting against my Zhao family, the kid can also march west from Pubei and attack Handan and Chaoge, and his father is west of Taihang, and Wuxian is east of Taihang. ”
Zhao Ying suddenly became serious: "Do you also think that Liuqing will have a battle in the end?" ”
Zhao Wuxian stood tall and slowly said some of the big strategies he thought about in the big tent: "Father should know that since the succession of the first monarch Pinggong, the situation of the six kings being strong and the office being humble has been formed......"
Zhao Wuxian looked back on the past and believed that with the development of the times, the six-secretary system that had always been in the Jin State was gradually shaken - the relationship between the subordinates and subordinates of the six secretaries became less strict, and the so-called chief general of the Chinese army and the secretary of state was gradually losing his dominance over state affairs and other five secretaries, and the independence and centrifugal force of each family were gradually increasing.
Zhao Ying knows this more clearly than Wuxian, he is the most domineering second secretary: "Yes, I am honest." ”
Now that Zhengqing wants to realize his wishes, he needs the support of his close family to a greater extent, and he needs to unite other ministers and monarchs to achieve advantages. This trend is gradually becoming obvious, and now it is a situation in which the six Qings are in their own ways, Fan and Bank of China are one family, Zhao and Han are one faction, and Zhi and Wei are one party and are in a situation where they are in each other's affairs.
Zhao Ying is also a little worried, now, the Zhao-Han alliance is a little shaken, and Zhao Wuxian may be one of the reasons for this rift.
Wuxian continued to talk eloquently along with Zhao Ying's words, at that time, many areas near Xinjiang in the Jin Kingdom were still in the hands of the Gong Clan. Liuqing, through the Jin and Chu armies, temporarily stopped the war for foreign hegemony, and began to concentrate on seizing the land of the public office and the clan.
"In the fifty years of the three generations of Pinggong, Zhaogong, and Qinggong, the Luan clan, Yangyu, and Qi clans were destroyed one after another, and their territories were divided. Subsequently, the clan contradictions became more and more complex and worsened, and the six Qings were all running their own bases, recruiting ministers, raising tiger soldiers, helping foreign countries, and becoming rich and strong. As Dong Zi predicted, Zhu Qing is now preparing for the upcoming merger, whether active or passive. ”
In the end, Zhao Wuxian said categorically: "Now that the six secretaries of the Jin State have clashed many times, the reason why they have not fought is that each family can still endure and prepare, and the other is that the Qi people are pressing, and if they don't do their best, their descendants will be humbled." But the kid dares to assert that within five years, there will be civil strife in the Jin Kingdom! ”
Zhao, Wei, Han, Fan, Bank of China, Zhi Liuxiong, plus the Marquis of Jin, although the Spring and Autumn Period has not yet ended, and the Warring States Period has not arrived, but the "Warring States Era" within the Jin State has come! (To be continued.) )
