Chapter 069: Lang Evil Zhuge Ke
Zhuge Ke, the character Yuan Xun, Lang Evil Yang are all people. He was obese, and was a powerful minister of Eastern Wu during the Three Kingdoms period, the nephew of Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of Shu Han, and the eldest son of the general Zhuge Jin.
Zhuge Ke was considered a prodigy when he was young, and later his performance was also quite good, taking over Lu Xun's garrison in Wuchang after his death, and before Sun Quan's death, Sun Liang was given to him alone.
[Agile Zhuge Ke]
Zhuge Kechuan was appointed as a cavalry lieutenant at the age of twenty, and taught Taoism with Gu Tan, Zhang Xiu and others who served the crown prince Sun Deng, and became friends with them. Historically, Zhuge Ke was very smart and quick-witted.
It is said that Zhuge Ke's father, Zhuge Jin, had a face like a donkey, and when Sun Quan was a courtier, he asked people to lead a donkey into the hall, put a long label on the donkey's face, and inscribed the words "Zhuge Ziyu" on the label, making a joke that was not big or small. When Zhuge Ke saw it, he knelt down and said, "Please let me add two words with a pen." Sun Quan agreed and gave him a pen. Zhuge Ke continued to write the word "donkey" on the label, and everyone present laughed, so Sun Quan gave the donkey to Zhuge Ke.
Seeing Zhuge Ke one day, Sun Quan asked him: "Which is stronger, your uncle (Zhuge Liang) or your father (Zhuge Jin)?" Zhuge Ke replied, "My father is stronger." Sun Quan asked the reason, and Zhuge Ke replied: "My father knows who to do, but my uncle doesn't know, so my father should be stronger." Sun Quan laughed again.
Later, the envoy of Shu came to Wu, and the ministers came to meet, and Sun Quan said to the Shu envoy: "This Zhuge Ke has always liked to ride horses, you go back and tell your prime minister to send him a good horse." Zhuge Ke immediately knelt down to thank him, and Sun Quan said, "What hasn't the horse sent to thank you yet?" Zhuge Ke replied: "Shu is Your Majesty's outer stable, and with this edict today, the horse will definitely be sent, how dare I not be grateful?" ”
In history, Sun Quan made a disgraced face in front of Zhang Zhao many times, but the young Zhuge Ke was able to not fall behind in front of Zhang Zhao.
Once Sun Quan asked Zhuge Ke to toast everyone in turn, and poured it in front of Zhang Zhao, Zhang Zhao was already a little drunk and refused to drink again, and said to Zhuge Ke: "This is not the etiquette of respecting the elderly. Sun Quan said: "If you can make Zhang Gongli quit poverty, then he will have to drink this glass of wine." So Zhuge Ke cross-examined Zhang Zhao and said: "In the past, Taishi Jiang Shang was ninety years old, and he was still holding the flag and holding the Yue, and he still did not grow old. Now the matter of leading the troops to fight, the general is behind, and the matter of drinking and eating, the general is in front, how can it be said that this is not respecting the elderly? Zhang Zhao finally had nothing to say, so he drank the wine in his glass.
According to the "Jiangbiao Biography", there were once white-headed birds gathered in front of the palace, and Sun Quan asked, "What kind of bird is this?" Zhuge Ke replied, "This is a pulsatilla." Zhang Zhao thought that he was the oldest in the seat, and suspected that Zhuge Ke was using a bird to tease him, so he said: "Zhuge Ke deceived Your Majesty, I have never heard of a bird named Pulsatilla, try to let Zhuge Ke find another Pulsatilla." Zhuge Ke said: "The bird's name is the parrot mother, and there may not be a match with its name, try to let Fu Wu (Zhang Zhao) find another parrot father." Zhang Zhao couldn't answer, and everyone present laughed heartily.
【Chiding Yamagoe】
Zhuge Ke has repeatedly asked himself to lead the troops to settle in the Shanyue people on the Danyang Mountain, Zhuge Ke believes that the Danyang Mountain is steep, the people are bold and strong, although they have also conscripted soldiers there before, but the conscription is only the civilians of the marginal counties, and there are few people in the far-reaching hinterland. He wanted to send out all the soldiers there, and said that in only three years, he could recruit 40,000 soldiers.
The officials of the DPRK and China discussed a lot, all believed that the terrain of Danyang was dangerous, the terrain extended in all directions, the people there made their own weapons, advocated martial arts, and went out of the mountains to be robbers, and the court sent troops to hide back in the mountains and disappeared, which could not be controlled since the Han Dynasty, and the people at that time thought it was unlikely, and even his father Zhuge Jin thought that it would not succeed, and said: "Ke'er will not make the Zhuge family prosperous, but will cause the family to suffer disasters." ”
In the third year of Jiahe (234), because Zhuge Ke insisted that he would succeed, Sun Quan promoted Zhuge Ke to the general of Fuyue, led Danyang Taishou, and allocated him 300 cavalry with halberds.
After Zhuge Ke took office, he adopted the policy of using both siege and appeasement by force, issued official documents to the governors of the counties under the jurisdiction of the four counties, ordering all counties to strictly guard the borders, strictly enforce law and discipline, and all the mountain people who had returned to the country should be set up to live in tun. Subsequently, he mobilized generals from all walks of life, sent troops to guard dangerous passes, built siege fortifications, did not exchange troops with Shanyue, and ordered all the soldiers to harvest the ripe rice in the fields. The Shanyue people had no harvest in the new valley, and the old grain was exhausted, and they were forced to go out of the mountains and surrender due to famine.
Zhuge Ke ordered: "The mountain people should be appeased if they abandon their bad habits and accept indoctrination." The government is not allowed to suspect and detain mountain people who have moved to other counties. "The mountain people are left behind, in the past, they were violent and evil, and now they are trapped and have no way out, so they have to go out of the mountain, and they still have different aspirations, ready to wait for the opportunity to make trouble, and Hu Yan, the magistrate of Jiuyang County, knows his thoughts and kidnaps him to the county government. Zhuge Ke believed that Hu Yan had violated the fatwa that "mountain people must not be detained" and beheaded him. When the mountain people heard that Hu Yan was killed, they knew that the government just wanted everyone to go out of the mountain, and had no other meaning, so a large number of mountain people helped the old and the young and surrendered one after another. Three years later, Zhuge Ke successively subdued more than 100,000 mountain people, exactly as expected, he incorporated more than 40,000 of them into the army, commanded 10,000 himself, and distributed the rest to other generals.
Sun Quan rewarded Zhuge Ke's exploits, sent Shang Shufu to shoot Xue Zong to the army to comfort him, worship Zhuge Ke as the general of Weibei, and seal the capital of the township. Zhuge Ke asked to lead his troops in Tuntian, Wankou, Lujiang. After he arrived in Anhui, he sent light troops to attack Shu County, captured the people of the county, and then returned to the army. Zhuge Ke also sent reconnaissance personnel to distant places to inspect the situation of roads and dangerous passes, hoping to capture Shouchun. Sun Quan thought the time was not ripe and did not agree.
Zhuge Ke's outwitting of Danyang Shanyue brought him huge political prestige, although his credit did not seem to be large, but because Zhuge Ke succeeded in a situation that everyone was unanimously unfavorable, many people's attitudes towards him began to reverse.
In the eighth year of Chiwu (245), Zhuge Ke learned that Prime Minister Lu Xun disliked him, so he wrote to him, saying that he could not seek full blame and should focus on the overall situation. Soon, Prime Minister Lu Xun died, Zhuge Ke was promoted to general, on vacation, stationed in Wuchang, and replaced Lu Xun to lead Jingzhou affairs.
However, Zhuge Ke still lacks a board in internal affairs, Sun Quan once appointed him as the acting jiedu, replacing the deceased Xu Shen in charge of the food supply of the army, but this work is cumbersome, Zhuge Ke does not like it very much.
According to the "Jiangbiao Biography", Zhuge Liang heard that Zhuge Ke had replaced Xu Shen, and wrote to Lu Xun and said: "My brother (referring to Zhuge Jin) is old, and Zhuge Ke has a negligent personality, and now he is in charge of food supply, and grain is the most important thing in the army. Please take the step to convey it to the Supreme for me. Lu Xun told Sun Quan that Sun Quan immediately transferred Zhuge Ke to lead the troops.
PS: I've found out that basically every chapter in this volume is seventeen chapters, and from here on, it's the era of post-Sun Quan, and it's estimated that it's also seventeen chapters, if not, I'll try to write seventeen chapters.
Concentrate:
and Prime Minister Lu Xun said: "Uncle Yang Jing narrated the Qing Dynasty, thinking that the characters of Fang Jin were all carved, and those who kept morality could not be repeated. and the worldly slander each other, so that what has been done is damaged; Those who will enter will not laugh. Hearing this, I am honest and alone. Foolishly think that the gentleman does not ask for one person, since the disciples of the Kong family are mostly 3,000, and there are seventy-two people who see differences, as for Zizhang, Zilu, Zigong and other seventy disciples, the virtue of Yasheng, but each has its own shortcomings, and the teacher is not given an order, how can it be that there is nothing to do here? And Zhong Ni does not take the unpreparedness of the number of children as a friend, and does not abandon his strengths because of others. With today's scholars, it is advisable to be wider than in the past, which one? The current affairs are subordinate, and there are few good people, and the national functions are often not filled. If you are not evil, and if you are determined to be powerful, you can be rewarded and do what you do. If it is suitable for a small and not enough for private conduct, it is appropriate to be broad and not responsible. And Shicheng can't talk about caustic, caustic will be incomplete, and those who come and go are evil? Therefore, it is said that it is difficult to look at people with the Tao, and it is easy to look at people with people, and the wise and foolish can be known. Since the end of the Han Dynasty, Chinese scholars and doctors have been like Xu Zi's generals, so they have slandered each other, or as for the disaster, it is not for the sake of great hatred, but it is not for self-denial to be courteous, and to blame others for justice. If the husband is not as polite as he is, then the person will not accept it. If you blame others for justice, you will be miserable. If you don't accept your actions internally, and you can't bear your responsibilities externally, you have to complain about each other. If you have a grudge for a lifetime, the villain will have to be idle. If you can tolerate your leisure, then the words of the three solstice, the infiltration of the admonition, the staggered intertwined, although the most clear and loved ones, it is still difficult to determine yourself, and you are a gap, and you can't understand it? That's why Zhang and Chen are as for the bloody blade, and Xiao and Zhu don't end up being good, it's just because of this. The husband is reluctant to give up the petty, the subtlety is responsible, and even the family is resentful for a long time, and there is no one in a country who has recovered the whole line. ”
