Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1149 Inside and Outside the Battlefield

In the sky, the pillar of fire and black smoke rising from Lijiawu Fort reflected on the land of Guanzhong, as if tearing a hole out of the heavy sky.

Amidst the turbulent flames, a small group of cavalry suddenly broke through the gate to the east of Lijiawu Fort, and ran wildly outwards!

Every fleeing cavalry soldier of Lijiawu Fort let out a hissing and exhausted roar, as if they were struggling to escape hell and escape the threat of death.

The Qiang cavalry who followed Ma Chao on the north and south sides of Lijiawu Fort did not immediately speed up to intercept them, but some of them seemed to be watching a show, they just made a show, and the Li family who tried to follow the small cavalry on foot All Wubao personnel rushed into chaos, either captured or killed...

Coming from Longyou to Longshan, the whole journey was also in a hurry. Since Ma Chao wanted to attack Lijiawu Fort and take its property to supplement military use, these Qiang people naturally would not have any objections, and Ma Chao had said the siege at the beginning. The strategy of Three Ques and One, since this is the case, if someone breaks through, let him break through, and the Qiang people are naturally more relaxed.

Moreover, the Qiang people also knew that those who broke through must be elite soldiers, and they were also important personnel in the Lishiwu Fortress, but what the Qiang people cared about was food, property, and women and children who could be plundered. Once he escaped, it meant that the resistance of Lishi Wubao had come to an end. At this moment, when there was a large piece of meat that could be shared, who would just stare at the bones with thorns and not much meat?
The Qiang people were originally more open-minded than the Han people, not to mention the turbulent flames constantly reminding these Qiang people that a slow step may only leave some residues, so the two wings These Qiang people chased away a few steps meaningly, then retreated, and enthusiastically joined the process of ethnic integration in Lishiwubao.

Screams and howls erupted in Fort Lishiwu, accompanied by black smoke soaring into the sky, rolling and boiling.

For the Li family's tenants and family members in the surrounding area, who would have expected such a situation today?
Shouldn't the collection of food and grass be just bargaining with each other, and then compromise to a level that is relatively acceptable to everyone?

How can there be such a person who comes up with a knife when there is a disagreement? !
These thieves from the Ma family actually sent troops to destroy the fort?

Where is General Xia Muxia?

Why don't you come and stop it?
Or……

Tens of thousands of thoughts swirled in the minds of the fleeing Li family members. Looking back at the black smoke soaring into the sky, everything finally turned into a howl of pain: "Mother..."

This fire was set by the old woman in charge of the Li family.

The men may have a chance to escape, but the women and children are basically guaranteed to be unable to escape, and the children of the gentry are naturally very clear about what will happen to the women and children who fall into the hands of the Qiang people.

Enduring humiliation and waiting for the Li family to spend money to redeem it?
Which family would be willing to spend a lot of money, and then re-place a shameful mark in front of themselves?

After the death of Hu Hanxie Shanyu, Wang Zhaojun wrote a letter requesting to return to the country, but Emperor Hancheng ordered him to "follow Hu customs"...

Does Wang Zhaojun have merit?

Meritorious.

No matter who it is, whether it is ancient or modern, even the most staid Confucian scholars, when they talk about Wang Zhaojun, they always express their deep admiration.After Wang Zhaojun went out of the fortress, there was no war between Han and Xiong in the past 60 years. If it weren’t for this, the Western Han Dynasty would have collapsed without waiting for Wang Mang to usurp power...

But such a woman is still engraved with the imprint of the Han Dynasty's tolerance and love, so even if she has contributed to the community, she is still not allowed in the court.The living Wang Zhaojun is a disgrace, and the dead Ning Huyan is the hero.

Life is better than death, that's it.

At present, the Qiang cavalrymen rushed into Wubao and so on along the opened gate of the village. When they saw the male, they didn't even think about it, didn't ask questions, and just chopped with knives and stabbed them with spears, and didn't even bother to use knives or guns. , directly galloped forward and stomped!

Whenever he sees a woman, he grabs his hair with his hands, or pulls his waist and arms, puts them on the horse's back, laughs and rushes to the next target...

At this time, on the west wall of Lijiawu Fort, the gate of the village has also been breached, and groups of soldiers poured in, breaking through the gates along the street like wolves and tigers, rushing in with swords and guns at the same time. .

At Zhaimen Long Street, a figure sat on the back of a horse, with a spear in his hand and a bloody head pierced. It was Ma Chao.The commander of Lijiawu Fort who led the soldiers to resist was finally defeated by Ma Chao's gun and became the last straw for Ma Chao to defeat Li's resistance.

At this moment, the light of the fire reflected on Ma Chao's face, revealing a smile on Ma Chao's face.

Ma Chao enjoyed this moment very much. In this moment of fighting and fighting in the battlefield, in an instant, a city can be overthrown, and a country can be destroyed. Isn't that what a man should do?

....................................

At this moment, Fei Qian, who was far away from the Guanzhong battlefield, was slowly heading south with his troops.

Fei Qian didn't want to take Guanzhong so soon.

Taking Zuo Fengyi, this is definitely necessary, because if Zuo Fengyi is not taken, then Guanzhong will be on the same line with Yang Biao, which is a big threat to the future.

But the whole territory of Guanzhong...

Ok.

Still a problem.

Because the problem in Guanzhong is not outside, but inside...

Fei Qian glanced at Pang Tong who was at the side.

Pang Tong has come back from the east of the river, sitting wobbly on the horseback, with his face up, squinting his eyes, trusting the horse to walk freely, anyway, the war horse has this advantage, the automatic follow function, you don’t need to control it yourself Walking with the horse in front, he was not afraid of the sun tanning him even more, humming a little tune in his mouth, looking very comfortable.

Naturally, Pang Tong had a reason to be so proud. He led [-] soldiers and Zhang Liao's [-] cavalry, but there were more than a thousand, but they disturbed Yang Biao's left and right sides, and he had to retreat from Tongguan...

Of course, Zhang Liao was responsible for most of the work, but no matter what, Pang Tong deserves some credit, right? And just when he was young, he wanted to show all his achievements on his face, so he just wore red and hung a banner and wrote a letter. Three big characters, "Praise me".

Naturally, if he really boasted, Pang Tong would show that he didn't care at all. In short, being arrogant and modest is enough to describe Pang Tong at this time.

Fei Qian couldn't bear it, and gently poked Pang Tong, who was squinting and swaying on the horse's back, with his whip, and said, "Come on, Shi Yuan, I want to ask you something..."

"Huh?" Pang Tong uttered a rising syllable, cooperating with raising Fei Qian's eyelid and eyebrows, and said lazily, "...but it's okay..."

"Within ten years, can all the wings of the Guanzhong nobles be wiped out?"

Fei Qian resisted the urge to whip Pang Tongtong, and then said, as if he was saying whether to eat mutton or beef today, and his tone was very smooth, but Pang Tong was so frightened that he shook on the horse's back and almost fell off the horse.

Pang Tong quickly grabbed the saddle and reins with his hands, and said with wide eyes: "Your Majesty, this matter is not to be laughed at!"

Fei Qian looked ahead and said calmly, "I'm not joking..."

"You know the gentry in Guanzhong, but for more than a hundred years..." Pang Tong looked at Fei Qian and said, "Although it is already sunset, there is still some light, how can it be quickly eliminated..."

Fei Qian naturally knew what Pang Tong said.

Why do some people repeatedly propose to abandon Xiliang?Isn't it because of abandoning Xiliang, Guanzhong has become a border, and then these Guanzhong gentry will become the next Bingbei gentry?

In the Western Han Dynasty, the gentry of Guanzhong ruled the world, but now the gentry of Jizhou and Yuzhou in the Eastern Han Dynasty, in the Western Han Dynasty, were all country bumpkins...

The recommendation system of officials in the Han Dynasty was the biggest cornerstone of the rise of these gentry.

Why did the people in the Han Dynasty never forget the officials with two thousand shi, even as a standard for whether a gentry can be ranked among the upper class? The power ranges from one to three people per year, and if the country needs special talents, this is not the number.

Regardless of whether these nominated and recommended personnel can become officials in the end, their reputation, class and status in the Han court will be greatly improved.

And in return, these recommended personnel will be branded with the recommender's imprint on their bodies, becoming a small part of the big tree of the recommender's family...

Over the years, these officials with more than two thousand shi, in addition to their own expansion, can also absorb those outstanding talents to their side through this method, and finally formed a dense forest.

The gentry in the Guanzhong area of ​​the Western Han Dynasty have experienced such expansion and multiplication for more than a hundred years. Even if they were suppressed by the Shandong gentry in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Jizhou and Yuzhou for a hundred years, they could still dominate one side during the chaos of China. The Li family with Longyou could rise again in the Sui and Tang Dynasties...

There is a very important reason why Fei Qian didn't want to take Guanzhong so quickly, that is, he didn't want to follow the old path of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, and he didn't even want to follow the path of Liu Bei and Sun Quan.

Those who are interested only need to pay a little attention to those things outside the battlefields of the Three Kingdoms, and they can clearly know that these battlefields are not isolated, nor do they just mean that the two armies are fighting each other.

Just like Fei Qian realized that war is just a continuation of politics a long time ago when he was in the Suanzao Alliance. The victory or defeat between Yuan Shao and Cao Cao has their own factors, but there are more factors. It is the result of the struggle between the political groups under their sect, that is, the gentry groups.

Yuan Shao used the gentry from Yingchuan and Nanyang to kill Jizhou Mu Hanfu, but in order to borrow the power of Jizhou, most of his soldiers were still led by Jizhou people. Even the one who defeated Gongsun Zan Baima Yicong was also led by Jizhou Juyi. It wasn't Yuan Shao himself, let alone the gang in Yuzhou, so the strife and internal strife between the Yuzhou and Jizhou factions, at Guandu, took Tian Feng, the benchmark of Jizhou, as the breaking point, which eventually led to Yuan Shao's decline...

For Cao Cao, his life is simply a master of the gentry's internal strife, and it is the most perfect embodiment.

Fei Qian believes that, not to mention Cao Cao's migraine, disease dragged down, and eventually died, even if Hua Tuo can successfully treat Cao Cao's disease, it will still be very difficult for Cao Cao to unify China if he is given ten more years.

Not only that, Liu Bei and Sun Quan are also using different methods to solve this problem, but unfortunately, the last well-known thing is that Cao Cao, Liu Bei and Sun Quan were all solved by this problem in the end.

Cao Cao was suppressed at first, and then had sex with him.

As for Liu Bei, the executor Zhuge Liang had very harsh punishments after entering Sichuan, and he also adopted a strategy similar to Cao Cao's to divide and suppress.

Sun Quan is completely different. The way he uses is to compromise, which is why Sun Wu has always been the most stable and darkest regime in the Three Kingdoms...

These things are like hidden reefs under the surface of the water. Most people see the rough waves on the surface of the water, the waves are surging, and there are many waves, but these things hidden in the shadows under the surface of the water are rarely mentioned. If we don't think and explore slowly, I'm afraid we will inevitably follow the old path of the Three Kingdoms.

Domination is simple, just kill.

But when Fei Qian gets old or dies, those sneaky things suppressed by Fei Qian will crawl out from under the water again...

Yuan Shao, who took the balanced route, got out of balance once, and then fell into a slump and couldn't get up again; while Cao Cao, who took the suppressed route, was finally stabbed again and again, and even had to compile the "Dream Is Easy to Kill" Zhuge Liang, who also took the oppressive route, was forced to do everything by himself. Many people in later generations would ridicule Zhuge Liang for being too smart and asking for trouble, but they never thought that this was actually What a painful and helpless act; Sun Quan, who took the path of compromise, was finally dyed black and completely sunk...

Or do you get drunk today when you have wine, just let it go, as long as you take care of your eyes, smooth it out, leave a mess for future generations to deal with, anyway, when you close your eyes, you just take care of it Does the sky collapse, does the flood flood?

Pang Tong looked left and right subconsciously, and then said: "...you are...why are you in such a hurry?"

Fei Qian sighed and said, "At first I thought I could take it easy...but now I can't..."

In the original plan, after Bingbei has cultivated a group of grassroots personnel and formed a complete system in civil affairs, culture, and military affairs, then use these personnel to slowly infiltrate the emerging classes. To replace the original role of the gentry in this era, and finally complete the guidance and improvement of the entire gentry, or cut off.

But now, Cao Cao married, um, the time to welcome Emperor Xian was obviously earlier, and Yuan Shao also advanced his attack on Gongsun Zan. There was an extra Yang Biao in Heluo, but Ma Chao came to Guanzhong...

What else will happen next?
Fei Qian didn't know at all.

For Fei Qian, who has lost control of the time chain of the Three Kingdoms, the future in front of him is like a black curtain that covers his eyes, but there are winding and rugged mountain roads under his feet, and he may step into the air at any time... …

Just like what Xun Chen said, there are more than [-] refugees in Guanzhong. If Fei Qian does not take action, even Zuo Fengyi may not be able to keep them. The most important thing is that these populations will become nourishment for the surrounding forces, even if they cannot go east. On the other hand, going south to Wuguan is Jingzhou Yuzhou, and going west to the inclined valley is Hanzhong Sichuan, or simply becoming part of the Qiang people, and this situation is also what Fei Qian does not want to see.

And just like the famous saying in later generations, when you open the window, not only fresh air comes in, but also mosquitoes and flies.

Therefore, facing Guanzhong, Fei Qian needs to face not only the inside of the battlefield, but also the outside of the battlefield...
