0037 The Way of Man
In the wall of Shangyuan Shi's dock, guests gathered, traffic was busy, and the chariot and horse teams that came and went to congratulate each other were even filled with the ravines between the platforms for a while.
At the banquet in the middle hall of the dock wall, Shi Gonggao, who was newly appointed as the governor of the county and township leagues, sat on the main seat, with a look of pride.
"The countryside has been in turmoil for a long time, although there are big banks in the past, and the villagers have also lined up to defend the land for the country, but there is a lack of a township leader, and Wuxun has been hasty. Fortunately, on this day, Daxingtai inspected the righteousness and appreciated the history of Weng, so that the local righteousness and courage were returned to the command of the king. Since then, the harmony of the hometown, the hometown to serve the country, the feudal festival, are all in the eyes! ”
Hearing a guest make this praise, Shi Gong also stood up at the table, bowed deeply to the direction where Huazhou City is located, and laughed after getting up: "Shi is not talented, only to lift up and down, make me ambitious, report to the monarch, and care for the villagers." Since then, it is incumbent upon me to advance and retreat with all the villagers and threaten the voice of my country! ”
When all the guests in the hall heard this, they all applauded.
Shi Jing, whose head and face were still bruised, also stood up from the banquet, holding the wine glass and grinning: "Today is indeed a time for my family to be happy, but it is not happy for everyone, and it is not happy." In the past, there were evil guests who entered the township and raped the township, which made our villagers restless. Today's situation is very happy, please ask the governor to lead a certain person to the township to catch him, not only for the governor to congratulate, but also for the villagers to settle a matter! ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone present knew who they were talking about, and their feelings became complicated, and they were not in a hurry to speak, but just looked at the Shi brothers.
"If so, then you go. Tell that Lang Jun that I am not a narrow person, if he sincerely comes to congratulate, I will treat him with my own dignity. If you still don't want to be kind, you don't have to embarrass him, in the future, there will always be a time for him to feel the righteousness of my hometown! ”
Shi Gong waved his hand generously and smiled, and then drank with others again.
Shi Jing waited for this day to be hard, and after his brother agreed, he laughed out of the hall, gathered dozens of family members in the dock wall, and went all the way to Li Tai's manor.
In the manor, Li Taichou sat in the middle hall, and when he heard that Shi Jing led the crowd to come, and shouted in front of the manor to let him go out quickly, his mood became even more irritable, and he waved his hand and said, "I don't see!" If he dares to make trouble again, he will be killed directly! ”
Soon after Zheng Man reported the news, Zhou Changming was also recruited by the envoy of Daxingtai to the township, thinking that he came to consult and transfer it to another place. Because he was afraid that the Shi brothers would come to the door to provoke, Zhou Changming arranged the soldiers of the countryside to guard here before leaving, and Li Tai was naturally not afraid of Shi Jing who came to disturb him.
But this is obviously not a long-term solution, since Shi Gong has been inaugurated as the county governor, then these township regiments in the county, including Shang Yangshu, should also be ruled by him.
The county official is not as good as the current management, if he is disturbed by the angels, the life and production of Li Tai Manor will also be greatly affected.
"It doesn't make sense! Why did this Shi Gong become the governor of the county? ”
In addition to being troubled, Li Tai was also puzzled in his heart, and couldn't figure out why things had turned out like this.
The reason why he clearly supports Zhou Changming is not only because of their friendship, but also because of his perception of the implementation of Yuwentai's policy.
When he was still in Tongguan before, he wrote a book about recruiting Guan Longhao as a soldier, which was the policy that Yuwentai would implement next, but he did not get Yuwentai's appreciation and use.
After Li Tai thought about Yuwentai's step-by-step measures, he gradually realized that his words were still a little radical.
The major affairs of the country are enshrined in Rong, and the army is the foundation on which the hegemonic government of the Western Wei Dynasty can be established. Therefore, regarding the various reform measures of the army, Yuwentai will inevitably be cautious.
Although the large-scale recruitment of Guan Longhao as a right army has been a choice that has to be made in the development of the situation, Yuwentai still strives to take the initiative in his own hands and push forward step by step.
Where is the specific step scale, only one of his minds, in addition, anyone's suggestions and suggestions, I am afraid that in his opinion, it is an ulterior motive.
Li Tai has recently also substituted himself into Yuwentai's perspective to consider, only feeling that this road is not easy to follow, and a little carelessness may cause a catastrophe, so this process is bound to be accompanied by various trade-offs and temptations, and it is inevitable that there will be hesitation and hesitation, and when the situation is not good, it will be stopped immediately.
If you want to take the initiative, you need to tightly control the course of things.
To attract a part of the powerful with rich assets but weak power to the ruling group is to implement the reward for losing.
As a result, the Western Wei Dynasty gained people and materials, especially a large number of material reserves, so that it could orderly regulate and control the prices and people's livelihood in Guanxi, raise prices to a certain extent, thereby increasing the cost of supporting the powerful and powerful, paving a material foundation for the next step of continuous reorganization, and reducing resistance.
If this line of thinking is followed, then the local tyrants with many real tribulations will not become the target of the first batch of awards. Especially in the core area controlled by the hegemon, he will not rashly let the powerful forces in the township take charge of the elite people.
The Shi family is a well-known local tyrant in Wuxiang County, and he owns a lot of troops and land. Once the township soldiers are in control, it will take more energy to control them.
Huazhou, as the base camp of Yuwentai's hegemony, is not the only kind of armed forces that exist, and a large number of Beizhen military leaders have been given pastoral fields here to raise their troops, which will inevitably have nostalgic friction with the local heroes. If local tyrants are allowed to lead the township regiments, the contradictions will undoubtedly become more complicated.
Zhou Changming, whom Li Tai chose, was not, he was not a wealthy family in the township, and he had served as the lord of the township soldiers for a long time, and his military literacy was also quite impressive.
But something went wrong, Shi Gong was appointed as the county governor, but Zhou Changming had to listen elsewhere.
If Yuwentai has to rely on a local tyrant like Shi Jia to stabilize the nostalgia of the base camp, it is also a joke.
A more reliable explanation should be that the business situation of Huazhou, the base camp, is stable, and the position of the governor of every county is not worthy of Yuwentai's repeated measurements, so it will be awarded according to the rules.
Li Tai thinks that he can guess the deep meaning of Yuwentai's order, but he is not Yuwentai after all, he is facing a nostalgic struggle within a radius of 100 miles, while Yuwentai has to consider the entire Kansai.
A slight negligence in the details does not hinder the overall situation for Yu Wentai, but it is enough to make Li Tai's calculations empty and his family house restless.
The miscalculation of this matter is not to blame Li Tai's miscalculation, it is purely that people are unlucky and drink water between their teeth. His roots in Kansai are still shallow, and his ability to resist risks is weak, and any wind and rain may be flooded or drought.
"Do you want to write another reminder? Or pack up and run? ”
Thinking that he was laughing at these local tyrants in the He Batsheng Mansion a few days ago and was short-minded, and he didn't want to face a dilemma today, Li Tai couldn't help but sigh.
He hasn't been in vain in the past few months, but he won't run away at every turn, but if things don't turn around, it will definitely not be practical to stay in Shangyuan any longer.
In the past period of time, Situ Governor Shi Heland has already done the naturalization for him, and now he is a serious person from Longshou Township, Bacheng County, Jingzhao County, and there should be dozens of acres of land on Longshou Plain as a rule. But during this time, he was addicted to rural fighting and couldn't extricate himself, and he didn't have time to deal with Juntian's affairs.
If Shangyuan is not enough to live in, it is also an option to transfer to Longshouyuan. Zhou Changming also told him before leaving that if the place of transfer was too far away, he was willing to resign and follow Li Tai.
But just walking away in a gray way is really not in line with Li Tai's style. Although he didn't say it, he was also dreaming of usurping the Wei Dynasty and Zhou in his heart, but he was submissive by a local tyrant in the township, which was really a joke!
After pondering for a while, Li Tai decided to work hard again in his heart, and let Yu Wentai see how harmful it was to suddenly select the local heroes as the commander of the township regiment.
"Fetch my armour, bow the horse! If the historical surnamed Diao Nu still doesn't leave, let them die here today! ”
Although he had previously stated to He Batsheng that he would not do any more conflict with others, there was no reason to be abruptly tolerated by others.
Li Tai planned to cut off the heads of the Shi brothers and go to Huazhou City to sell a miserable complaint, the two local tyrant brothers violated the law and bullied the guests from other states once they gained power. Lao Tzu had no choice but to kill him, but also to eliminate the evil for your Beizhen military leaders, otherwise your children and grandchildren will also be bullied by this country thief in the coming year!
If Yuwentai wants to punish him severely, then Lao Tzu and my uncle will not attend this autumn's parade, you still want to see my big brother He Liuhun jokes, look at your grandma!
Thinking like this, Li Tai rushed to the gate of the manor with a lance, and when he saw that Shi Jing, who was short and thin and barely saw people on horseback, he still led the house slaves to entangle with the manor guards, and he rushed straight to the other party with the horse lance.
"Stop him, stop him! This kid is crazy......"
Shi Jing was immediately shocked when he saw this, turned his horse and fled to the rear, and shouted for the house slaves to stop Li Tai and his party, who were killing with great momentum.
The slaves of the Shi family came this time just to play a trick to vent their anger, where did they think that Li Tai would dare to kill brazenly, they were also panicked for a while, and a few of them wanted to stop them, but when they saw that the bright lance stabbed straight in front of them, they were all panicked and flew out of the sky, or fell off the horse, or turned their heads to flee for their lives.
In front of the manor for a while, people turned over on their backs, and when Li Tai got rid of the entanglement and rushed out, Shi Jing had already galloped out of more than a mile. Naturally, he would not let go of this old boy and chased after him in the field.
At this time, another group of knights appeared on the rural road ahead, which was Zhou Changming and his party who had returned from Huazhou City.
Li Qujian followed Zhou Changming to Huazhou, and at this time he saw Li Tai chasing Shi Jing violently, and immediately rode his horse to rush up, and when the two horses passed by, Shi Jing was lifted off the mount with a long arm.
"Lang, what's going on?"
Li Quji, who was struggling with his hands and dancing with his feet, rode his horse to meet Li Tai.
"Stab this old boy to death!"
Li Tai raised the horse lance in his hand, and was about to pierce Shi Jing, and Zhou Changming on the side shouted with a happy face: "Lang Jun, great joy!" Daxingtai awarded me to be the county marshal and governor! ”
!!!
When there was no room for it, Li Tai's elbow sank, and the lance swept Shi Jing's shoulder. When he looked again, Shi Jing's hem was already soaked, and urine dripped down his robe into the field.
"Shi Hou is really polite, when he is drowning, he is drowning, why do you have to endure this fat and I plow the field."
Li Tai immediately looked at Shi Jing, who was thrown down by Li Qujian and fell to the ground, and laughed.
