Chapter 161: Ziyu Shows His Talent
"Meet my lord."
When Mi Zhu went down to rest again, Zhuge Jin came to see him again.
"Ziyu, what's the matter?"
Wei Tao was slightly stunned, and then he understood, this should be Zhuge Jin's desire to seek for himself, and immediately asked with a smile.
"When Jin first came to the state, he didn't have an inch of merit and won the importance of the lord's father, and he was sincerely uneasy in his heart, and he wanted to dedicate a plan to the lord and help the lord's great cause."
Zhuge Jin immediately bowed and said.
"Although I know that Mr. Zi Zhongxin is to the lord, I don't want to speak freely in front of him, and I hope that the lord will forgive me. In the future, Zizhong will officially submit to the lord, and I will also ask him for guilt. ”
"Oh? I don't know what Ziyu means? ”
Wei Tao was also interested when he heard it, and immediately asked.
"Yes, now the state is sparsely populated, and tens of thousands of people were killed and injured in the Xiongnu war, so now the worry of the state is not that the soldiers are tired and the food is less, and the strength is insufficient after the state, if the lord is not heavy, I am afraid that after a few years, only the old and weak, no young and strong can be recruited, once the Huns are south, when there is no guard, then Mo Yan's ambition, I am afraid that the lord is a sinner for the Han Dynasty."
Zhuge Jin's words were a bit heavy, but the words in his words were not a threat, but they were true.
"Thanks to Ziyu, I almost forgot about it!"
Wei Tao woke up through Zhuge Jin at such a point, and he understood his mistake.
Speaking of Xun You and Zhou Yu, they are indeed talents in the world, but most of their talents are in military strategy, and although they have also made achievements in people's livelihood and politics, they have not paid much attention to what they do.
Zhuge Jin may not be as good as Zhou Yu and Xun Yu in terms of wisdom alone. But he is able to make up for his own shortcomings. Honesty is precious.
This made Wei Tao's eyes even more eager. He bowed his hand slightly.
"Dare to ask Ziyu what to do?"
"Today, chaos will arise, the former Han Emperor's capital Luoyang is also burned to the ground, and the people want a place to live but can't get it. If anyone can give it, it will be supported by the people, and when the people come, will they not be able to receive it? ”
Although Zhuge Jin was conspiring for the first time, he did not see the slightest anxiety. Immediately, it was a conversation.
"The land is vast and sparsely populated, not to mention the barren fields, even the fertile land is rarely cultivated. Why doesn't the lord practice tuntian? ”
"Tuntian, Juntun?"
As soon as Zhuge Jin reminded him, Wei Tao just remembered that in history, Cao Cao successively implemented the military tun, which ensured its endless logistics.
"Although the military tun is okay, but the corporal under the command of the lord is the one who has established meritorious service, if the army is marching, I am afraid that it will be dissatisfied. Moreover, the implementation of military cantonment will also affect daily drills. Since the lord is determined to expel the Xiongnu, he must have elite soldiers. This military tun is not in accordance with the matter, and the lord should implement the people's tun. ”
Zhuge Jin talked eloquently, and all he said made Wei Tao nod secretly.
"Of course, with the current situation of merging states, I am afraid that there is a difference in the words of Tuntian alone, and there are not enough people in the state. Therefore, the lord may wish to do so, he can order the tuntian, and then make it clear that in a few years, the land will be equally distributed to the people of tuntian. ”
"This method is good, and it will definitely attract a lot of displaced people."
Wei Tao didn't expect Zhuge Jin to still have this consciousness, and his heart was suddenly overjoyed, and he immediately said with a smile.
"In that case, how about Ziyu being in charge of this matter? I first appointed Ziyu as the captain of the agricultural school, and was in charge of the affairs of Tuntian. As long as it is a borderless land within the state, Ziyu can do it, and as for how to determine it, I will no longer interfere. I believe that Ziyu will definitely live up to my expectations. ”
"The lord of Duoxie trusts, and Jin will do his best to preside over this matter for the lord, so that I and the state will have a rich harvest of grain and grass."
As a newcomer, Zhuge Jin was naturally excited to be so trusted by Wei Tao.
After Zhuge Jin received the order and left, Wei Tao still asked Zhou Yu to ask, after hearing Zhuge Jin's strategy, Zhou Yu praised it repeatedly, and with Zhou Yu's ability, he naturally understood that this was indeed a loss of merging states.
Mi Zhu came this time, for both public and private purposes, but I have to say that his trip not only filled Wei Tao's treasury, but also recommended Zhuge Jin to Wei Tao, a great talent, so that Wei Tao gained a lot.
But this time it was obvious that the matter was very urgent, on the second day of the negotiation, Mi Zhu and Chen Deng were in a hurry to leave with the war horse entrusted by Wei Tao, obviously this time King Qin's edict made Kong Rong, a good old man, really angry.
In the blink of an eye, another month has passed.
I have to say that Kong Rong is indeed a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, and after waiting for a month, he ordered Tai Shici to lead the cavalry that had just been formed to go to the west.
Kong Rong's move immediately attracted the attention of the world.
Wei Tao had already sent Xun You to Chang'an, bluntly saying that he could not come to King Qin because of his suffering.
Although Yuan Shao didn't say anything at this time, he also stood still, waiting to see how the situation changed, only Cao Cao, when Kong Rong made a move, he responded and led the army to wait, when the Xuzhou army passed through Yanzhou, Cao Cao went west to Chang'an with Kong Rong.
And at this time, there was also another person who made a move, but it was Naxi Liang Ma Teng.
Ma Teng did not receive any edict, but in the name of the Qing monarch, he also went to Chang'an, and for a while, there was a situation of the former coalition army to fight for Dong, which made Li Xuan and others where Chang'an City was located panicked and uneasy.
In fact, Li Xun didn't think about repeating the old trick and ordering everyone from all walks of life to retreat, but this time it was different from Wei Tao's time.
Wei Tao did not obey the emperor's edict that time, and at that time, Wei Tao could or could not save the Son of Heaven, since the Son of Heaven did not say it at that time, Wei Tao naturally retreated from the army, but instead took the position of a state pastor.
But now Li Xuan's edict, its envoy was immediately refuted and angrily reprimanded by Cao Cao, and Cao Cao still told the world that if Li Xuan and others have a heart of repentance, they will immediately withdraw from Chang'an and let the Son of Heaven come to power, if not, the fate of Dong Zhuo in the past is like this.
Li Qi and the others can have this position by controlling the Son of Heaven, now if they are allowed to withdraw from Chang'an, where is it possible?
And those court ministers are not without ability, and during this period, they are provoking the relationship between Li Xu, Zhang Ji, Fan Chou and others, so that they cannot meet the enemy together.
In such a situation. Many people can see it. Li Xun and others are already in the wanest. It's hard to last.
Of course, at this time, the liveliness of Chang'an City has nothing to do with Wei Tao.
In fact, at this time, Wei Tao was paying attention to Zhuge Jin's trip, and I have to say that Zhuge Jin is indeed very capable, just one month, he recruited a lot of displaced people from Sili, and then resettled them one by one.
should act in an orderly manner, so Wei Tao couldn't help but nod secretly.
And with the arrival of the money and grain from Xuzhou, it filled the already exhausted treasury. The annexation of the state has gradually recovered.
"Report! The lord, Cao Kong's coalition army defeated Li Xuan and Fan Chou's coalition army, and that Zhang Ji had quietly left Chang'an before the war, and it was reported that he was heading south to the Wancheng area. ”
Although Wei Tao is not ready to go to Chang'an, he still pays attention to the news of Chang'an, and this day is to discuss political affairs with Zhuge Jin, that is, someone came to report it.
"Oh? Although Li Xuan and others are not strong, after all, they are the Xiliang Iron Cavalry who inherited Dong Thief, and it is probably not easy to win a battle before I and the state armies break the Huns. How is it to break its cavalry? ”
Wei Tao asked curiously, in fact, it was not only Wei Tao who was curious. Zhuge Jin was also curious.
"Lord Qiyu, it is said that Cao Cao also formed a cavalry called the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, which was united with the five thousand cavalry just formed under Kong Rong, and the cavalry led by the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry forcibly attacked Li Xuan, under the first battle, the cavalry was only half damaged, and the Xiliang cavalry was directly defeated."
Hearing this report, Wei Tao was slightly surprised, it turned out to be the case, the cavalry under Kong Rong should be just a newly trained cavalry, could it be the tiger and leopard cavalry?
"Lord, I'm afraid this is also because the cavalry under Li Qi and others is not as good as Dong Thief, it is reported that when Lu Bu fled, he brought the elite of Liangzhou, Li Xun and others blindly abused the atrocities like Dong Zhuo, and the cavalry under his command was no longer considered elite. The lord need not worry. ”
Maybe he saw Wei Tao's doubts, but Zhuge Jin said with a smile.
"And I'm afraid that this still took advantage of the raid, just like the lord to the Huns, Rao is so, it still hurts a lot of people, it seems that it is far inferior to the lord."
Hearing Zhuge Jin's persuasion, Wei Tao felt a little more comfortable in his heart, but he also knew that he was afraid that the strength of the tiger and leopard ride was not weak.
However, this matter is just Wei Tao's secret attention, and he still acts calmly on the surface.
Cao Cao and others defeated Li Xuan and others, and the soldiers went to Chang'an, and under the internal and external troubles, Li Xun and others were defeated only within time.
However, Li Xuan and others are also treacherous, wanting to forcibly take the Son of Heaven as a life-saving talisman.
However, since the Son of Heaven dared to order the king to work with the important ministers of the imperial court, he was naturally fully prepared, and before he knew it, the soldiers and horses in the city were already controlled by the imperial court.
When Li Xuan wanted to act forcibly, he suddenly counterattacked, making all his plans come to naught.
Then Cao Cao and Kong Rong naturally entered Chang'an smoothly.
However, there is a turning point here, that is, according to history, it was Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty who took the opportunity to flee, and then Cao Cao welcomed Feng, which was the relocation of the capital to Xuchang.
But now it is different, it is the Son of Heaven who issued an edict to Qin Wang, and Cao Cao, Kong Rong and others have entered Beijing.
In addition, unlike Cao Cao, although Kong Rong is mellow, he is also a person who is loyal to the Han Dynasty, and if the Son of Heaven orders him to hand over his military power, he will not hesitate at all.
Of course, Liu Xie naturally understands this, but he is very fond of Kong Rong, and he is ready to continue to establish Chang'an as the imperial capital.
In fact, this is also normal, Chang'an is the imperial capital of several dynasties after all, and it is not much better than Xuchang who doesn't know how much better, at most, it is only possible to be threatened by Li Xuan and others.
Cao Cao understands very well that if he is stationed in Chang'an for a long time, then the materials to be consumed are not small.
It's a pity that today's imperial court has experienced the Yellow Turban Rebellion, experienced the disaster of Dong Zhuo, and Chang'an was occupied and destroyed by Li Xuan, and there is not much left of its foundation, and it is impossible to let many people garrison here.
It's a pity that Cao Cao understands this truth, but others don't understand it, and Liu Xie doesn't understand it either.
If Chang'an is not established as the imperial capital, how can the imperial capital be established in Xu County?
So after arranging many things, Liu Xie directly summoned Cao Cao and said to him.
"I already understand what Meng De means, not to mention that the autumn harvest is approaching now, and Wenju has already ordered someone to transport grain from Xuzhou, with Xuzhou's wealth, it must not be short of this grain."
Regarding the few openings with Cao Cao, Liu Xie was only faint.
Being trapped by others several times made Liu Xie a little more suspicious, for fear that Cao Cao was actually under house arrest, and when he was no longer forced to do so, he would naturally not act arbitrarily.
What's more, in comparison, Kong Rong, who is still famous all over the world, is even easier to be trusted by Liu Xie.
"This ......"
Cao Cao wanted to speak, but he didn't know how to speak, so he had to shake his head in his heart.
Although Cao Cao also had to be crowned a general, which was very honorable, Cao Cao was kept in Chang'an by Liu Xie and was not allowed to leave.
But Liu Xie also knows the Tao after several twists and turns, no matter how much he trusts, it is impossible to let only one person be in charge of the imperial court, leaving Cao Cao is to let him have a fight with Kong Rong, so that he can balance it.
If it was peacetime, Cao Cao would naturally not do anything about it, but when the world was about to be in chaos, Cao Cao really didn't know whether it should be like this.
There is no impermeable wall in the world, not to mention that now that Chang'an is settled, it is already for people to come and go, Xun You soon sent a series of things in Chang'an back, and at the same time, it has been stated that Hua Xin already has the intention of taking refuge.
"Gongda handles things, I should rest assured. But now that Meng De is probably in a dilemma, staying in Chang'an is wasted money and food, but if he leaves and is angry by His Majesty, I am afraid that he will confirm that he has Dong Zhuo's heart. ”
Wei Tao couldn't help but shake his head when he closed the letter.
"I'm afraid that at this time, all the heroes in the world should be happy, Your Majesty has done this, and it is really inappropriate to entrust it, but it is also, Your Majesty has been banned for a long time, and now is the time to seek power."
"My lord, what do you think of what the public letter said now?"
At this moment, Zhou Yu also finished reading the letter and immediately asked.
But Liu Xie is now supported by Kong Rong and Cao Cao, at least he has mastered the division of the territory, and the young son of heaven is assisted by famous ministers and generals, at least in Liu Xie's opinion, it is very likely that it is the time when the Han Dynasty is in Zhongxing again.
Therefore, Liu Xie has begun to prepare for the new era name, and at the same time is preparing for amnesty to the world.
Of course, if it is just like this, it does not have much to do with the princes like Wei Tao who are already in charge of a state, but the key is that according to Xun Youxin, there are already ministers who ask for music from time to time, so that all the princes from all walks of life come to congratulate.
Naturally, it is impossible for such a group of people to be transferred, and if something happens, it is not impossible to calm the world in one fell swoop.
Although he didn't say anything, Zhou Yu's meaning was actually understood, and he didn't want Wei Tao to go to Chang'an.
In fact, everyone can figure out that with the heart of today's son, it is indeed impossible to really wipe out everyone, but who can't say for sure? (To be continued......)
