Chapter 15: The Heroic Times
Sun Zi Sun Yanlong is a pivotal figure in the political history of Cao Wei, not only surpassing Zhang Ji, Jia Kui and other famous assassins, but also not even under Dong Zhao, Zhong Xuan and others. In the original history, he was recommended by Jia Kui and came out, successively served as the Gongcao and the accountant of Hedong County, and then went to Xu because of the plan, Xun Yu sighed when he saw it, saying: "The north has been in turmoil for a long time, and it is said that its wisdom is scattered, and today it is to see Sun Ji's officials again!" ”
After Cao Cao was crowned Duke of Wei, he hired Sun Zi into the shogunate, and Liu Fang and Liu Ziqi of Peijun were the secretary Lang, and he was secretive. In this way, the two started as Cao Cao's confidential secretary and became the vice premier of Cao Wei's central government (Liu Fang was the Zhongshu supervisor, Sun Zi was the Zhongshu Ling), and controlled the government for nearly 20 years. When Emperor Cao Rong of Wei Ming was dying, he originally wanted to use Cao Yu, the king of Yan, and Xiahou Xian, the leading general, as auxiliary ministers, but Sun and Liu were not on good terms with Cao Yu and others, so they recommended Cao Shuang and Sima Yi instead-In a sense, it was the Sima clan that destroyed the Cao clan, but it was Sun Zi and Liu Fang who paved the way for the Sima clan, and they were also important executioners in the destruction of Wei.
Yes Xun wanted to assist Cao Cao in unifying the world, but after all, he came from two thousand years later, and he didn't care at all whether the Cao family would be able to last forever. Besides, he has always believed that "the times create heroes", not "heroes make the times", Sima Yi came to power, although because of his own outstanding talent, but the general trend of the three-point and the Cao family's children and grandchildren themselves are not competitive, and the political structure is chaotic, which are more important factors. So he wasn't worried about recommending Sima Yi to Cao Cao at all, and now he wasn't worried about pulling Sun Zi into his bowl.
After all, these two people are the heroes of the world, they have the ability, and they are absolutely useful for the Cao family to unify the world. As for what will happen in the future. We'll talk about that later. Cao Cao can naturally control these two. Cao Cao's heirs, whether it is Cao Ang, Cao Pi in the original history, or a few generations later, if they can't control it, it's their own problem.
History has proved that under the command of Ming Jun, Sima Yi and Sun Zi and others were still quite loyal. is not like Liu Bei, who is almost born with a backbone in the back of his head, and will never be subservient to others. Therefore, Shi Xun didn't dare to recommend Liu Bei to Cao Cao, but he was really not worried about Sima Yi and what would happen to them in the future to affect him.
There really will be a day when I turn around and go to be a Jinchen, although it is not easy, it may not be completely useless.
Hebei has Fu Zhu and Tian Feng, Yuan Shao will still be defeated, Shu Han has Zhuge Kongming, and Liu Wei Chuan II. The trend of the times is irretrievable. Shihoon always believes. For example, there has never been a thriving era of the Central Plains Dynasty, and the grassland nomads will be put in the eyes, and the rise of the nomads is often followed and exploited by the decline of the Central Plains Dynasty. Therefore, Shi Xun has never thought of killing and slaughtering the Huns, and if he wants to eliminate the possible "five chaos in the future", the only way to unify the world as soon as possible and rebuild the powerful Central Plains Dynasty can be taken.
kill all the Huns, and Xianbei; Kill the light and the humble, and the Turks; kill all the Turks, as well as the Khitan; Kill all the Khitans, and the Jurchens...... The vast northern grasslands, coupled with the dense forests of the northeast, cannot always be empty there, there will always be small tribes that come out of nowhere to fill the gaps, and then take advantage of the chaos in the Central Plains to rise instantly. Before modern society, that was an unstoppable historical trend.
After Shixun hired Sun Zi in Puzi City, he proudly embarked on the road back.
In the original history, Sun Zi did not have the intention of going out of Hedong, and relied on his friend Jia Kui to persuade him: "Hold the talents of Yiqun at your feet, value the overthrow of the old state, the Lord will be diligent, extend the neck for thousands of miles, and worship the righteousness of the ancient sages and mulberries." And Jiu Panhuan, refusing to disobey the king's order, Si Yuyao and Bi were in the court of the King of Qin, and the price of the city was stuffed. Steal for the foot and don't take it! "Only then did he go out of the mountain and from Wangyi.
But this premise is that the county only sends small officials to hire. Just like Sima Yi, if Cao Cao is also like Liu Bei, he looks at Mao...... Mansion, do you see if his brother will pretend to be sick? In this timeline, Cao Cao didn't come, but Hongfu came, so Sima Yi and Sun Zi all hesitated a little and set off. Let's not talk about the cliché of "the scholar dies for the confidant", these talented and ambitious scholars who want to make a career are all greedy for the powerful, and they will naturally bow down in front of the powerful.
After all, there are not many people like Yan Guang and Li Mi who are both capable and regard wealth and nobility as floating clouds.
At the beginning of February, Shi Xun had just returned to Anyi, and was planning to spend a lot of effort to train the army, when news came that Yuan Benchu had officially started his army, and he had set up an army of 100,000 troops. At the same time, Yuan Tan also raised troops from Qingzhou and joined Liu Bei, wanting to capture Langxi County in one fell swoop. There is no warning signal in the direction of Bingzhou, in Shixun wants to come, one Gongsun Chan has not yet been extinguished, it is estimated that Gao Gan will focus on him and Zhang Yan of Montenegro, and second, Bingzhou is vast and sparsely populated, and it will take more time to gather troops and horses to attack Hedong.
These news were sent by Cao Cao to Anyi, and almost at the same time, Pingyang also galloped in, and the Southern Xiongnu sent people to Huchuquan to present a roll of bamboo slips. Shi Xun opened the bamboo slip to take a look, only to see that it was written:
"General Zuo led Yuzhou to assassinate the history and the county and the country: Gai Wenming's main plan was to control the change, and the loyal ministers were worried that it would be difficult to establish power. It is because there are extraordinary people, and then there are extraordinary things; If there is something extraordinary, then make extraordinary contributions......"
After only two lines, he couldn't help but laugh out loud. He is familiar with this article, and later generations will be called "Yuzhou Wen for Yuan Shao", which is the masterpiece of Chen Lin and Chen Kongzhang, and it is also one of the famous texts in Chinese history. It is said that when Cao Cao was suffering from a headache, he was shocked when he saw this, and he was so shocked that he was cured without medicine. After the Battle of Guandu, Cao Cao caught Chen Lin and asked him: "Qing used to be the original book, but the crime is lonely, and the evil stops his body, why is it the evil of the father and the ancestors?" "It's over if you scold me, why do you want to scold my ancestors for three generations? Chen Lin replied: "The arrow is on the string, and it must be sent." "I was forced! Cao Cao loved his talent deeply, so he pardoned him.
Shixun didn't believe Chen Lin's clarity at all, and believed that when he wrote this article, he didn't know how happy Lu Dao was in his heart. But those who are reluctant and hesitant will never be able to write such momentum and show such literary brilliance!
It was originally to affirm his righteousness in his hands, to devalue the target of the crusade to worthless, to scold the three generations of his ancestors, and to splash sewage, which is also reasonable. But Xun always felt that Chen Lin's article was a bit excessive, "Specially set up the general of the Qiu Zhonglang, touch the golden captain, and the sudden appearance, no remains are exposed" and other words, it is too fake - not to mention that Cao Cao did not dare to dig graves and rob graves publicly, even if he did it publicly, he would not dare to set up an official position with such a name.
Two thousand years later, on the Internet, there are still people who really believe in this, and they even take it out to talk about it.
As he thought, he read down, and as he read and read, he felt that something was wrong, that this was missing a paragraph. If you think about it carefully, yes, there is indeed one in the original text: "Therefore, Taiwei Yang Biao, the second division of the calendar, enjoys the extreme position of the country." the cause and the fate of the eyes, and be regarded as a non-sin; The list is merged, and the five poisons are prepared; Touching the feelings, ignoring the constitution. He also discussed Lang Zhao Yan, loyal and outspoken, righteous and acceptable, and listened to the holy pilgrimage, changed his appearance and decorated. If you want to lose the time, put an end to words, collect and kill without permission, and do not serve the country. "But in this timeline, Yuan Shao moved his troops relatively early, and Cao Cao has not yet captured Yang Biao; As for Zhao Yan, Cao Cao was imprisoned on the pretext that he was implicated in Dong Cheng's rebellion, although the charges may not be true, but they are also more decent than the original history, so it is not easy to take it out and talk about it.
After reading it from beginning to end, Shi Xun couldn't help but feel a little itchy in his heart, and said in his heart that I might as well write an essay to confront Chen Lin - I think that when I was in the suburbs of Yecheng, that is, my subordinates were defeated, how could I make him specialize in beauty? Although I have never written an essay, I still have a few examples of future generations in my stomach, how difficult can it be to repair them?
When I spread out a piece of hemp paper, lifted the pen, dipped it in ink, and the first words that came to my mind were: "The pseudo-Linchao Wu clan, the sex is not harmonious, and the ground is cold and ......" This Tang Dynasty Luo Bin Wang's "On behalf of Li Jingye to discuss Wu Cao" remembers the most, okay, that's it!
So he started writing and wrote: "General Yuan Shao, the sex is not harmonious, and the ground is cold and slightly ......" After writing a sentence, the pen tube was raised high, but it could no longer fall. He said in his heart that Yuan Shao's name was above Cao Cao, so he dared to directly point his nose and scold "Sikong Cao Cao", and he wanted to write an essay on behalf of Cao Cao, but he couldn't directly "General Yuan Shao" How about it. As a general, under one person and above 10,000 people, he can crusade against any courtier, as a general who crusades against the general, how awkward does this sound...... Besides, the words "sexual non-harmony" are not suitable for men.
He still remembered that he had read a certain crossing article in his previous life, and he really dared to copy "Seeking Wu Cao", obviously the target of the crusade was a man, and he was "not harmonious in nature", "fox charm can confuse the master", and he abandoned the article on the spot!
At the moment, "brush brush brush" painted this sentence, thought about it with his back to the sky, and rewrote it as: "Ruyang Yuan Shao is the original one, the name is born as a eunuch, the earth is really cold, the son of the maid, and the ...... is born."
Yuan Shao is a native of Ruyang County, Runan County, and was originally a concubine, and it is said that his mother's status is very low. How low is it? In the history books, when Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao competed for the position of Yuan's patriarch, he once scolded him for being "born of a servant girl", so Shi Xun not only started with this matter, but also simply poured sewage, saying that it was Yuan Shao, who was "born out of fornication" by his father and mother - not an official concubine at all, completely illegal, and Yuan Ben had an illegitimate child in the beginning!
Yes Xun felt that he was quite despicable, but there was no way, these years are very particular about family background and grandchildren, the fourth generation and third duke of the Yuan family, and he can't be blackened in the family world, so he has to think about his descendants and legitimacy...... (To be continued......)
