After Liu Ye transmitted the Chu State's request to "jointly build a Tuyin Port" back to Yecheng, a great controversy broke out in the Wei dynasty.

Although the military advisor Guo Jia strongly opposed it, most of the ministers of internal governance led by Xun Yu and Chen Qun agreed......

Guo Jia is indeed Cao Cao's most trusted strategist - not only resourceful and strategic, but also from a humble background, without too many entanglements of interests, and at the same time seems to be cynical, but his loyalty to Cao Cao is beyond reproach!

However, Guo Jia's more suggestions are in military strategy and domestic affairs...... Guo Jia is not ignorant, but he is more inclined to "comment" and analyze the impact of domestic affairs on military strategy, and is "lazy" to actually govern.

Of course, Cao Cao also knew that Guo Jia's "laziness" was partly due to his unstable personality, and partly because Guo Jia's body really couldn't bear it - if it wasn't for Liu Bei to facilitate the entry of the Han Emperor, the luck of the Han family and the Wei State was cut off, which indirectly reduced the pressure on Guo Jia to pass on his luck, and I am afraid that Guo Jia would have died.

Guo Jia proceeded from the aspect of military strategy, believing that the navy of Chu had been on the sea for a long time, and it often traveled to and from Liaodong and even overseas, as well as the strength of Chu armor and the advantages of Chu soldiers, which could not be regarded as the same as ordinary southern naval forces......

Normally, in everyone's impression, the northern army goes to fight in the south, because the climate is hot and humid, and there is a miasma, and the strength must be discounted, and if it is a water war, it will be even more discounted; Similarly, the southerners came to fight in the north, the cold and dry climate, and the generally higher physical superiority of the northerners, once they fought in the north, it was difficult to compare with the northern army.

This is not only applicable to generals, but also to the quality of the population of the "source of soldiers"!

However, Guo Jia felt that the navy of Chu had already overcome the climate disharmony, and as for physical fitness...... The ordinary people of Chu can often see meat, occasionally supplemented with eggs and milk, and the fresh fish along the coast, pickled fish and pickled vegetables in the inland are also eaten daily......

Especially recently, the State of Chu has even frantically encouraged the people to popularize the cultivation of true qi, and the food of ordinary people for a day is probably comparable to the grassroots generals in the elite troops of the Wei State!

The gap in physical fitness has long been not a problem, and even if there is a gap, I am afraid that Wei is backward......

Therefore, Guo Jia believes that handing over Tuyin Port to Chu State is equivalent to opening an opening in the rear.

However, Chen Qun and Xun Yu look at it from different angles......

The enemy came from the sea, it was a lone army to go deep, whether it was from Liaodong or from the south, it was very inconvenient, as long as it could hold the city, what could the navy do alone?

What's more, this time it is still for the new sea ship of the Chu State!

If the navy of the Chu State is really that strong, then it should get the other party's ship structure as soon as possible and start copying it.

Otherwise, if your own naval army is about to collapse at the first touch, won't it be forced to land?

And Chen Qun also had his own considerations - Wei only promised to cede Tuyin Port to Chu State, and the Chu people could not leave the range of sixty miles, but ...... Wei didn't agree, others could enter within sixty miles!

Didn't the State of Chu want to do business in Tuyan Port?

That would completely block the port of Tuyuan, only give permission to a limited number of caravans, and turn the city into a real trading hub.

In this way, it is convenient for the privileged caravans to jointly lower prices, and Tuyin Port can only play the role of material distribution, and Tuyin City, which is controlled by Wei, can easily develop into a commercial city no less than Shouchun and Wancheng!

Moreover, according to the conditions negotiated by Liu Ye, Tuyin Port is only a part of the military port, and the Chu State can block it, and the port itself can dock the merchant ships of the Wei State, and the Chu State cannot stop it.

Chen Qun's argument was supported by the vast majority of Wei Chen, and even Xun Yu was moved, and further Cao Cao was moved.

In general, Wei did not get too entangled, and agreed to Chu's assistance in the construction of Tuyin Port - to hand over the land of 100 miles along the coast and 60 miles in length and breadth to Chu.

It's just that for the specific development plan of Tuyin County, Chen Qun and Xun Yu, the future son-in-law, broke out again!

"Xun Lingjun's words are wrong, just with the official caravan of the Wei State, not only entrusting all the needs of my Great Wei to the Chu State, but also the sea ships of the imperial court, is it really enough? After that, who will distribute the goods entering from the mound to the whole country, and even to Liaodong and Bingzhou? "When Chen Qun was discussing politics in the DPRK, he naturally would not call Xun Yuzhang.

Even if he is only engaged now, Chen Qun's performance can be called "brave".

"This time, the imperial court specially purchased a batch of sea ships from the Chu State, why is it not enough? Tuyan Port is also used by the imperial court and is dedicated to the court, so why not? What's more, the imperial court will hire each family, or buy the qualifications with gold. ”

……

"Tuyin County is originally a lower county, even if Tuyin is driven by the port in the future, it can be further developed, at most, it is only mentioned to the commercial tax of Zhongxian County, how can there be a special special tax? Previously, they all encouraged families to take the initiative to buy Chu goods! ”

"In the future, the status of Tuyin County will be different from the rest of the counties, and as soon as Tuyin Port is opened, it will be directly connected to the sea of Chu State, so it will naturally not be the same as before."

……

Cao Cao smelled the quarrel between the two, and his head hurt slightly, and Cao Cao himself didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse to "loosen" the right of the family before......

The quarrel between Chen Qun and Xun Yu is nothing more than dividing the boundaries of interests between the family and the imperial court!

Who is Chen Qun?

is a famous family, after Yingchuan Chen, Chen's family background is no less than Xun's, and Chen Qun is also engaged to Xun Yu's daughter.

Because Xun Yu is more upright, and more sympathetic to Cao Cao, although he is from a family and has some involvement with the interests of the family, he pays more attention to the interests of Cao Cao's group, or the Wei State, so the northern family mostly takes Chen Qun as the hope of the court.

One of the most famous things in history is that he contributed to the "Nine Grades Zhongzheng System" - which is a continuation of the "Inspection System", the essence of which is to standardize the process of "Inspection and Inspection", and implement the right of inspection to the size of Zhongzheng, and have clearer standards.

In the history without the white picture effect, during the Cao Cao period, the nine-product zhongzheng system had a clue......

Theoretically, the Jiupin Zhongzheng system is a higher form of the inspection system, and theoretically because the standard is clearer, it has the effect of clearing the rule of officials.

However, on the one hand, starting from Cao Pi, the emperors and ministers of the Cao family had an unhappy quarrel with the Cao clan, and gradually began to rely on the family......

The so-called "effect" was too short-lived, and the Jiupin Zhongzheng system quickly became a more barrier-by-one and more monopolized system for electing officials than the "probation system", which made the scholars who controlled almost all the ascending channels completely transformed into a gate valve.

Even Emperor Cao Rong of the Ming Dynasty after Cao Pi was already powerless about the overly inflated gate valve, and expressed his dissatisfaction with the system of recommending officials several times, but he was pushed back by the soft nails of the courtiers.

It can be said that it was the official implementation of the Jiupin Zhongzheng system that made the scholar clan a symbol of the real power of the gate valve, and the change of Gao Pingling, the gate valve force led by Sima Yi killed Cao Shuang and other warlord forces, and it was also the Three Kingdoms period that the gate valve officially began to overwhelm the warlords and became the symbol of the mainstream......

It is the Sima clan that the gate valve holds up together, and naturally continues to use this system, and when it comes to the Western Jin Dynasty, there is already a "high grade no cold door, and the lower grade has no warrior clan".

Maybe the current Chen Qun did not think of the consequences of the "Nine Grades Zhongzheng System", but what can be known at present is that Chen Qun definitely considers the interests of the family more.

Chen Qun's current status in the Wei State is similar to that of Lu Kang in the Chu State, who is responsible for coordinating the family...... It's just that he doesn't have Lu Kang's qualifications.

At the same time, he did not have Lu Kang's support for his own king and his own court, so Cao Cao's "use" of him only valued this channel of communication with the family!

Xun Yu is more interested in the Great Wei, but the result of ignoring the interests of the family is that the family does not regard Xun Yu as a "spokesperson".

From the perspective of the wealthy family, Chen Qun is their "Lu Kang", but in Cao Cao's view, Xun Yu and Chen Qun can be regarded as "Lu Kang".

In this matter of Tuyin City, Xun Yu also agreed with Chen Qun's opinion, thinking that he could promise the Chu State......

However, this pair of Weng sons-in-law had differences in the development of Tuyin City.

Or rather, a concentrated eruption of inherent differences!

Wei has long hoped that it can learn from the commercial tax system of Chu State, and the commercial tax and agricultural tax will be cut together, and both knives will be ruthless.

However, it suffered widespread opposition from the northern family, after all, for the north, the commercial tax ...... Isn't it just to collect these taxes from Gu Yinghao?

Taxes are also levied on land and trade......

So why should we accompany you?

After the Han court was out of control, although Cao Cao stabilized the situation with the assistance of a group of civil and military officials, his legitimacy was greatly hit, and in order not to overturn, he ceded part of his power to the wealthy families in the north, and also made peace with the family group to which the Yuan family belonged.

Cao Cao even personally married Zhen Mi, Yuan Xi's wife and daughter of the Zhen clan of Yecheng Wang, as a sign of appeasement.

What the? Zhen Mi is Yuan Xi's wife? Cao Cao: Isn't that better!

The root cause is that Cao Cao gradually felt powerless under the rapid development of the Chu State, and decided to try a unique way - the rise of the Chu State was too idealistic, but there was actually a simpler way to reproduce it......

It's just that things that are too dirty can't be done by the "Great Wei Imperial Court", and instead use the right of the family to do it, in fact, it can be more "efficient".

This also needs to mobilize the enthusiasm of the family, that is, to let the family get a part of the benefits, which can also directly bypass the family's resistance to change!

The situation of Chu State, which was the first in the world and relied on technological superiority to forcibly smooth out internal differences, cannot be replicated, because the southern scholars had never seen the white map before, and the northern scholars ...... The results of the white chart have been seen.

If other "shortcuts" were not taken, Wei would not have any chance.

Inevitably, it also made Wei more restrained than in history when facing the opposition of the scholars......
