Wei Qing Feng Hou Chapter 31 Boiled frogs in warm water
Dongfang Shuo likes blue-gray clothes, and the same goes for court clothes. Today, he also wears a blue-gray cloth robe, with a black string tied around his waist, and a piece of mutton fat jade, which is white and flawless; His hair was wrapped in a cloth band, and he was very civilian.
"Dongfang Aiqing, flat. Today is my special invitation to you to come to the meeting, Aiqing does not need to panic.
Since I have been in power for more than a few years, I am ashamed of Mr., and I hope Mr. is not strange! Liu Che suddenly became a little polite and virtuous, and blamed himself, beyond imagination.
Dongfang Shuo was also stunned, and quickly replied: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" He stood up unhurriedly and shook his head invisibly.
"Dongfang Aiqing, Wei Qing, Huo Quai, you can also sit down.
I am looking for you today to discuss something, in this Weihou Mansion, everyone relax, just like you get along on weekdays, and we will discuss big things together.
Wei Qing, you first introduce the matter discussed today to Dongfang Aiqing, and let him listen to it, staff officer. Liu Che said with a smile, picking up the teacup in his hand and taking a sip.
Wei Qing had a bitter expression, which was a signal of uneasiness in Dongfang Shuo's eyes, but he had to listen.
Soon, Wei Qing introduced Emperor Liu Che's original words to Dongfang Shuo word for word.
Hearing that the northern land was about to fight again, Dongfang Shuo's face trembled slightly; When Wei Qing said Liaodong and Wei Man, Dongfang Shuo was as calm as water, and he was not alarmed. After listening, the person has fallen into deep thought, and no longer pays attention to others.
A strategy about Wei Man brightened Dongfang Shuo's mind. "Long-distance friendship and close attack, business and military use, division and disintegration, strong troops and weapons, and the people from the beginning."
According to historical records, during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, in order to weaken the separatist power of the Baekje Wei clan, he sent the great merchant Jia Pengwu to operate trade? In the Baekje Wei clan proper, as well as in the Donghao (Lintun) and Wofu regions east of Daling, the leaders of the eastern indigenous peoples like Namlu were connected to Liaodong County, indicating that they broke away from the rule of the Baekje Wei clan and joined the Han Dynasty.
Unexpectedly, from Dongfang Shuo, the peninsula of the Liaodong Peninsula has been the sweet potato country of the Han Dynasty since then.
Dongfang Shuo thought for a while, and proposed to Emperor Liu Che: Distant friends and close attacks, merchants are gentle, divide and divide, and forcibly resist Hulu! The sixteen-character proverb, every word is beautiful, deeply engraved in Liu Che's mind.
Although these sixteen characters are simple and slightly understood, they are different from Liu Che, Wei Qing and Huo Quzhi who were present. Long-distance and close-range attack is easy to understand, that is, to adopt an offensive strategy against the strong enemy Xiongnu in the north, so that it does not dare to despise our Han and attack and defend easily; The Baekje Wei clan in Liaodong is thousands of miles away, and it can't be wiped out immediately, so it can only be slowly tied to the Han Dynasty by using business travel and trade, so that its clothing, food, housing and transportation are basically inseparable from the commodity trade of the Han Dynasty, and then slowly cannibalize and become the domain of my Han Dynasty, fortunately, there are many people like Nanlu.
When Emperor Liu Che listened to Dongfang Shuo's explanation of this place, his eyes flashed and he was constantly surprised. I didn't expect that a place of scabies would one day become a territory under my rule, which is equivalent to being able to expand my territory, how can I not be elated.
The kings of all dynasties have regarded the expansion of territory as the most glorious thing in their ruling careers, and as Liu Che, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, who was known as the first emperor of the ages, is an inspiring political achievement, which can shine in the annals of history.
"Dongfang Aiqing, what he said is reasonable, and there is indeed a place for advice. Wei Qing and Huo Quzhi both recommended that you resolve this matter, and now it seems that Mr. is indeed talented. Liu Che couldn't help but praise Dongfang Shuo.
Dongfang Shuo and Wei Qing looked at each other and smiled, and said to Emperor Liu Che again: "Your Majesty is eloquent and strategic, and there are many talents under his rule, and Weichen is just throwing bricks and attracting jade!" “。
Liu Che laughed heartily again, although he knew that Dongfang Shuo was suspected of being a sycophant, but he couldn't pierce it, anyway, it sounded comfortable. So, being able to pat on the back is also a kind of knowledge and technology.
After Liu Che was overjoyed, he continued to ask Dongfang Shuo: "Aiqing has long been mature about the situation in Liaodong, and the strategy to solve it must be able to be explained in detail. ”。
Dongfang Shuo did not shirk, and continued to talk about the situation in Liaodong and the infiltration strategy.
"Your Majesty, Zhongqing, go to the sick, the minister thinks that Liaodong is thousands of miles away, the east of Youzhou, if you use soldiers, the money and food expenses in the process of marching are also a lot of money. If you send 100,000 troops from Jixian County, Youzhou, you have to walk for three months and march 80 miles a day, counting grain and grass alone, 100,000 troops will eat 180,000 stone per day, and the army will have to use millions of stone grain and grass before entering Liaodong, and before the war, we will lose millions of money and grain, from the perspective of trading, the use of troops is the last measure, so the minister suggested that the former Qin Shi Huang should be used to weaken Liaodong before unifying the six countries.
Dozens of business travelers entered Liaodong from different directions, selling some daily necessities, of course, the texture is much better than the local one, and the price is about the same as that in my Dahan, and then use some commercial means to lay out in advance, so that it can be effective in four or five months. At that time, the situation in Liaodong will fall apart, and it will completely become the meat of His Majesty's case, which can be slaughtered by others.
The strategy of boiling frogs in warm water was adopted to encourage postal communication, trade, and intermarriage between the two places, and the same script flowed into Liaodong together, and slowly assimilated the local residents. When intermarrying, it is celebrated by the local government sticking to the list; The government of his heirs can propose many matters such as the name, and exempt some unnecessary taxes for three years; A few years later, our Han will have another new force, and then we can form an army from Liaodong and lead the troops to attack the eastern grassland of the Xiongnu, and at the same time, our Han and Jizhou will send troops at the same time, so that the Xiongnu can not take care of each other, how uncomfortable it will be, and how uncomfortable it will be, and let the northern Hulu taste the humiliation we have endured.
