Guo Yi and Xun You, this is the help that Li Shushi provided to Huang Zhong, just like for himself who was the Taishou of a county at the beginning, Liu Hong, who was the emperor at the time, lined Lu Zhi to Lishi.
The only difference is that compared to Lu Zhi, who was secretly burdened with the responsibility of monitoring himself at the beginning, whether it is Guo Yi or Xun You, there will be no such problem, but Li Shushi also hopes that Huang Zhong can soften Xun You's political position and attitude through his connections in the clan circle, so that the other party can better integrate into the state army.
As for Huang Zhong's own loyalty, it is absolutely reliable no matter what.
The choice of Huang Zhong as the new Shuozhou Mu Li Shushi also has his own considerations.
As Huang Zhong said before, if Li Shushi just wants to follow Lu Zhi's policies, then he can choose Zhong Xuan as his successor, even if this successor may indeed be a little unstable factor at some point, as Li Shushi said, but overall it will not really cause a big mess.
Even if he has his cunzài, he will let Shuozhou provide additional help to Li Shushi as the rear of the state. It's like in another time and space, as the supreme decision-maker in the Sanfu region, he not only stabilized Cao Ying's flanks, but also provided a lot of help for Cao Ying's group to win the victory in the main battlefield of the Battle of Guandu, and at the same time, there were many highlights in the subsequent Battle of Hebei.
In fact, the first candidate recommended by Cheng Yu, who heard about this, was also Zhong Xuan, after all, whether it was political achievements, background or skills, and even the battlefield battle, although Zhong Xuan was not that hand, he was not ignorant, as long as he was equipped with a good general, Zhong Xuan could completely cooperate with it to swing the effect of 1+1"2.
It's just that when Li Shushi got the information from Hanoi, he finally vetoed Cheng Yu's suggestion.
For no other reason, Li Shushi felt that he might have been too deeply affected by the impression of another plane of history before, and his inherent impression of Huang Zhong was that he was a martial artist who was taken care of by Zhuge Liang and absolutely disobeyed by the old man. Even if he knew that Huang Zhong was from a big family in Nanyang and did not lack some communication skills, so he entrusted him with that sensitive and complicated place in Hanoi, in fact, it was more because his force could ensure that the rebels could be suppressed at any time in the rear, just like Zhang Xiu did in Hedong.
It's just that to Li Shushi's surprise, in the face of Li Shushi's "trust", Huang Zhong handed over a surprising answer sheet for him.
Although there is no shortage of support from the Sima family, the Shan family, the Yang family, the Zhang family, the Chang family and other families, Huang Zhong was able to sort out the relationship between the powerful and powerful families in Hanoi in less than a year, not only completing the autumn harvest and spring sowing smoothly, but also leaving no room for the public opinion warfare and psychological warfare of the Kwantung princes in Hanoi County.
Most importantly, this qiē is not by force, or that force is only used as a background rather than a means.
It was only at this time that Li Shushi began to realize that perhaps Huang Zhong's potential was not limited to military affairs, even if his intellectual potential was not impressive from the perspective of his family name.
However, as a mature adult with a mature mind, and at the same time living in the Nanyang clan group where the situation is relatively complicated and the position is quite important in the political circle of the Great Han Dynasty, Huang Zhong's experience in dealing with people is obviously far from what Li Shushi can imagine, but this middle-aged uncle has cleverly hidden this qiē because of his rich life experience.
Until he was "forced" by Li Shushi to take a position where he would make a mess if he didn't swing with all his strength.
It was also in Hanoi's position that Huang Zhongxiang's accumulated wisdom turned into practical ability little by little. Even if it is undeniable that Hanoi, as a large county located in Henan, has always had no shortage of talents, and the level of low-level officials is far from the national average, Huang Zhong's ability to skillfully control these people and make them work above the level is still commendable.
Therefore, Li Shushi believes that as long as Huang Zhong has the ability to deal with Xun You, so that the uncle can wave more than fifty percent of the active surname, plus the help of Guo Yi and other cronies arranged by Li Shushi in Shuozhou, Huang Zhong's Shuozhou pastoral trip is still worth looking forward to.
Anyway, people are much more powerful than they were at the beginning.
And with Lu Zhi's departure from Shuozhou, the entire political layout of Shuozhou will also change greatly with Li Shushi's entry into the main position.
is the so-called principle of a son of heaven and a courtier, and Li Shushi's strategic goals are also quite different from Lu Zhi.
However, before introducing Li Shushi's arrangement, I must first talk about the political environment in Shuozhou under Lu Zhi's rule.
Although Li Shushi has not relaxed his attention there, and at the same time, the Xihe Li family and some other forces that Li Shushi once left over there can transmit news for him, but because Lu Zhi's Shuozhou can basically be said to be completely harmless to the state, the intelligence there belongs to the lower level of all intelligence, whether it is an important surname or an urgent surname.
In fact, if it weren't for Dong Zhuo's sudden recruitment of Lu Zhi into Chang'an this time, and Lu Zhi also responded to this suggestion, Jia Xu would not even have submitted information related to Shuozhou to Li Shushi - because it was really unnecessary.
And this is also the reason why Li Shushi was a little surprised when he looked back at the information.
The changes in Shuozhou seem to have been somewhat out of Li Shushi's previous imagination.
When Lu Zhi first accepted Shuozhou, although nominally Shuozhou owned the land of Yunzhong, Dingxiang, Xihe, Wuyuan, Shuofang, and Shangjun, but with the merger of Dingxiang and Yunzhong, all Lu Zhi could control was Yunzhong County and Xihe Half County, and the rest were basically either occupied by various Hu forces, at least it was not easy for the Han Dynasty to reach out to those places, or it belonged to the land of chicken ribs, and the Han Dynasty abandoned the local area for a long time, forming a very complex social situation.
Just as Liu Hong had promised Li Shushi, Liu Hong also gave Lu Zhi the greatest support - reducing or exempting Xihe's taxes, and at the same time giving Lu Zhi a high degree of decision-making power over the appointment of Shuozhou officials. Although most of the so-called Shuozhou was beyond the jurisdiction of the Han Dynasty at that time, such a private commitment was quite decentralized.
In fact, if it weren't for Liu Hong's peace of mind about Lu Zhi, and at the same time, Shuozhou really didn't have any oil and water, this kind of thing would never have happened. And it is precisely because of this that Lu Zhi has carried out Liu Hong's request as a testament to this day.
It was under such circumstances that Lu Zhi began the greatest opportunity to show all his talents.
Up to now, although Li Shushi divided and disintegrated the Xiongnu, did everything possible to weaken the Xianbei people, and co-opted the Karasuma people in the Taiyuan and Xihe areas to objectively help Lu Zhi, so that he had a lot less external pressure and internal disturbances, but he was able to completely control the entire county of Xihe and Yunzhong (including the former Dingxiang County), and basically control all of Shangjun and most of Wuyuan County, Lu Zhi's political and military skills were indeed strong.
Powerful manoeuvres also brought a powerful bureaucracy to keep this vast force running.
Among the four counties controlled by Lu Zhi, the Taishou of Xihe County has been vacant, which is equivalent to Lu Zhi himself concurrently serving as a concurrently servant, after all, the nominal Xiongnu royal court is still here, and Lu Zhi needs to use his reputation to promote a series of policies and guard against possible problems.
Yunzhong Taishou has been handed over to Zhang Yan, the leader of the Black Mountain Army from the remnants of the Yellow Turban Army, and Zhang Niujiao is hidden behind the scenes, but after so many years, inspired by Lu Zhi's personal charm, Zhang Niujiao has not done anything difficult for Lu Zhi, but has become Lu Zhi's most staunch supporter, and even this time Lu Zhi's escort to Chang'an has Zhang Niujiao and more than 100 elite Yellow Turban troops led by him, and it is rumored that Zhang Niujiao's Yellow Turban Army soldiers are the highest achievement of the former Taiping Road - Yellow Turban Force, The strength is amazing and at the same time, there are some magical powers, as for the specific power is a matter of opinion.
Of course, Li Shushi is more willing to believe that this is a rumor released by some well-intentioned people, after all, even if he hasn't been in the top of the Yellow Turban Army for a long time, but don't forget that he holds the real product of "Taiping Yaoshu" and the projection copycat version of "Taiping Qing Lingdao" in his hands, Zhang Niujiao is at most just a combat priest who can preach and cut people, and it is really difficult for him to study it, so it is more reliable to say that those Yellow Turban wrestlers are the "legacy" left by Zhang Jiao back then.
Wuyuan County, like Xihe County, was not too guarded and managed, because it was still in a state of tug-of-war between the Han army and the Xianbei people, and the troops under the jurisdiction of Liyi, who was the general of the Xiongnu Zhonglang, were basically playing with the Xianbei people over there after they were not controlled by the Huns.
Of course, although the position of Taishou was not established, Koji Yoshishi actually assumed all the responsibilities of Taishou.
Anyway, the current Gohara County is basically a military-related affair, and Koji Yi has been trained for so many years to bear it.
And this is on the county...... When he saw the name of Shangjun Taishou, Li Shushi had an urge to grab the ground with his head.
Du Ji, Du Bohou.
This brother is not very outstanding in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but he is a very outstanding officer, served as a Taishou in Hedong for 16 years, during which various winds and waves have gone through countless times, but finally able to let the local people live and work in peace and contentment, and at the same time provided a lot of logistical support for Cao Ying's expedition to the northwest and Hanzhong region, this ability is enough to be called outstanding even in the Three Kingdoms period at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and its governance concept of "benefiting the people" is exemplary.
Of course, despite all the praise for him, it is sad that the fame brought by these diligent deeds is really insignificant compared to the great name of this old man's grandson.
Who is Du Ji's grandson so powerful?
Answer: It is the same name as our Guan Erye, who likes "Left Turn" and even obsesses with Cheng Dù Du Yuankai.
Du Pre, how powerful is this famous general of Wu can go to Du Niang for in-depth exchanges, the only digression is: You can see from Du Pre's various encounters that Sima Yan would definitely drop a lot if it weren't for being the unified emperor of the Jin Dynasty, and this emperor completely had a fight with Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty - looking at the country is really the most prosperous, but it is also the joint point from prosperity to decline, and it can even be said that the humiliating history of their descendants can basically be found in them.
Du Ji was originally a county magistrate in Jingzhao Zheng County, and when he made this Zheng County magistrate, there was an interesting incident.
It is said that the former county magistrate of Zheng County is an even more incompetent guy than Li Shushi, not only has poor political performance, but also has a backlog of a large number of cases of inaction, and in the prison is closed hundreds of people waiting for trial, you must know that this is a place under the jurisdiction of Jingzhao, although the status of Jingzhao in the Eastern Han Dynasty is far from being comparable with the Western Han Dynasty, but it can also be regarded as a major place in Gyeonggi, and now it is equivalent to a district party secretary in Shanghai + the president of the district court and the procuratorate who drinks all day long and does not do anything, Happy going in and out of nightclubs all day long, it is estimated that he will have been sanctioned by the iron tongs of the river crab lord a long time ago.
We don't know what happened to this superb predecessor, after all, because of the existence of the trend of ten permanent servants and selling officials, you really can't guarantee the purity of those grassroots bureaucracy, and the richer the area, the more so.
As a result, as soon as Du Yi arrived, it was like Pang Tong when Zhang Fei inspected Leiyang, although it was not as exaggerated as half a solution, but Du Yi also ran up and down by himself, and it didn't take long to solve the matter.
By the way, Pang Tong in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms performed the demeanor of the two Zheng County magistrates before and after, and in history, Pang Tong lost his official position because of his poor performance in Leiyang. Therefore, it is very suspicious that the plot of Lao Luo's Romance of the Three Kingdoms Pang Tong is influenced by Du Ji's deeds.
Therefore, the reason why Cao Wei was able to divide the world into two parts, in addition to those familiar figures and policies, a diligent and capable local official like Du Yi was definitely an important reason why he was able to make the war-torn Central Plains region recover quickly and gradually have an overwhelming national power advantage over Wu and Shu.
After saying so much about Du Ji's goodness, let's talk about the reason why Li Shushi wanted to grab the land with his head after seeing this name.
Because...... This guy doesn't know if he is not too cold to Li Shushi or too cold to Lu Zhi, I heard that Lu Zhi was called to Beijing's decision, and after explaining all the political affairs in hand, he came to Lu Zhi's side with a light car, looking at the posture is going to be life and death, maybe in Du Ji's opinion, Chang'an is an absolute Longtan tiger's den, and the old man Lu Zhi will fold in it if he doesn't pay attention.
Although Du Ji is a filial son, but because he was not born in a wealthy family, he did not have the opportunity to show filial piety, and he was not even appointed as the gong cao of Jing Zhaoyin until he was twenty years old, and the Zheng County Decree mentioned before was just a temporary agent after the previous county magistrate left office, that is to say, he did the things of the county magistrate but did not have the grade of the county magistrate.
After a period of investigation, he was recruited into his own mansion, first appointed as the county magistrate of Pingding County in the northwest of Xihe, and then became the Taishou of Shangjun because of his outstanding political achievements and served until Lu Zhi left.
It can be said that Lu Zhi has the grace of knowing him in an absolute sense.
And this explains the reason for Du Ji's previous actions, after all, don't look at Du Ji as a civil official, but he is not lacking in courage, so whether it is in Pingding County or Shangjun, on the one hand, he adopts a bodhisattva heart for the people under his rule, but if someone dares to destroy the lives of the people, he can also raise the sword of thunder in time, so that there is a thriving and prosperous Shangjun can be called the second result of Shuozhou.
If Li Shushi could have learned about these situations earlier, he would definitely find Old Man Lu and say that he would leave Du Ji behind, whether it was in the name of righteousness or private feelings, and I believe that Old Man Lu Zhi would definitely cooperate with Li Shushi's actions, after all, Lu Zhi did not persuade him when he ran to Old Man Lu's side, but because he saw the other party's resolute demeanor and thought about some other ideas, he did not insist on his own ideas, so that Li Shuzhi had to regret that he had missed a great talent.
So it is said that a Zhang Ji but a Du Ji is lost, between a drink and a peck, is it not heavenly?
Maybe Li Shushi can only comfort himself like this.
As for others, such as county orders or county officials, there are also many abandoned officials who have joined Lu Zhi's team to go to Chang'an, and they are all the kind of staunch elements that you can't get rid of no matter how you rush away, which makes Lu Zhi angry and full of emotion, and finally can't bear to refuse.
It can be seen that in the past few years in Shuozhou, what kind of prestige has the old man Lu Zhi established to make so many people die for it.
"Does Zhang Yan want to go to Shangjun?" The general situation in Shuozhou has been sorted out, and the next step is to arrange for it.
"Yes, the reason, you should also know it, my lord, Lu Gong's charm is really enough to make me admire."
The two Taishou promoted by Lu Zhi, one Du Ji directly sacrificed his life to follow, and the other Zhang Yan, who was a little more distant, also took the elite of the former Yellow Turban Army, who had been trained in the clouds for a long time and was already a veteran of the border soldiers, to ask for orders to go to Shangjun.
After all, Shangjun and Zuo Fengyi are neighbors, and they are only separated from Chang'an, the seat of Jingzhao, by a Wei River that is not too wide.
In addition to the close relationship with Li Shushi, the rest of the forces directly under Lu Zhi basically appeared in different ways, which is not only the embodiment of Lu Zhi's personal charm, but also Li Shushi is also very suspicious that this is some kind of backhand arranged by Lu Zhi, after all, Li Shushi knew very well what Dong Zhuo's "burning Luoyang" made Old Man Lu angry about.
Don't forget, although Lu Zhi has always shown the humble and generous side of a gentleman in front of Li Shushi and other juniors, don't forget that gentlemen are also a group of people who "repay grievances with straightforwardness", not to mention that the horror of honesty and fire has to be added to the third level.
"Is that so? It looks like the previous plan is going to change. ”
Unsurprisingly, the answer made Li Shushi fall into deep thought again. (To be continued.)
