Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1888 Make an imperial edict to worship generals and divide Shaanxi into rule
Longshouyuan.

The sky is clear and the blue color is like washing.

On the altar of worshiping generals, flags are waving.

"Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong, step forward and listen to the seal!" 』

Even in the midst of the sound of bells and drums, the loud voice of the ritual officer was still clear and bright.

Amidst the sound of rumbling drums, Zhao Yun stepped up the ranks, raised his head and chest, and climbed up to the altar of worshiping the general step by step.

This moment is his glory.

The war drum vibrates, and the sound is like stirring blood, and the horn is melodious, and the sound is like yellow sand hitting the face!
Zhao Yun's face was still calm all the way up, but his heart was unavoidably surging. After all, he was the first one among the generals to be rewarded. The number one general under the tricolor flag.

Fei Qian chose Zhao Yun as the number one. In addition to Zhao Yun's outstanding military achievements, another very important reason is that Zhao Yun is calm and calm, not like a person of his age.

Of course, Zhao Yun is not completely flawless. According to Fei Qian's careful observation, Zhao Yun's biggest problem is that he is a staunch royalist through and through. This makes Fei Qian a little strange.After all, it was the emperor of the Han Dynasty who abandoned Changshan and other borders back then, and it was also the fatuous court of the Han Dynasty who made these people desperate and turned into bandits. Under such circumstances, Zhao Yun is still a heart, even worse than Lu Bu. It's really interesting to have a firmer intention to respect the emperor.

In history, Zhao Yun voted for Liu Bei, not necessarily without meaning in this regard...

In Mr. Luo's book, in order to set off Liu Bei, many people naturally became rebellious officials and thieves, but in fact some people are not as unbearable as described in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.Such as Yuan Shu and Lu Bu.Although Yuan Shu's reputation was also stigmatized in the end, and under Chen Gui's persuasion, Lu Bu also broke off the marriage alliance with the usurping Yuan Shu. It can be seen that Lu Bu still supported the attitude towards the Han Dynasty.Moreover, Lu Bu's supportive attitude was widely known at the time, so Sun Quan later said during the Battle of Chibi: "The old thief has wanted to abolish the Han and stand on his own for a long time, so he should avoid the two Yuan, Lu Bu, Liu Biao and Gu Er." 』

This sentence is very interesting.

Although the meaning of Sun Quan's words was not to praise Lu Bu, but to mark himself, but at the same time, it also explained that if Yuan Shu had really proclaimed himself emperor at that time, and Lu Bu had been known as a traitor before, then the face-loving Sun Quan would not Putting Yuan Shu and Lu Bu ahead of him.

So Yuan Shu and Lu Bu, in fact, in the eyes of Sun Quan, at least they were not recognized as rebellious ministers, at most they were just like Liu Biao, some presumptuous opportunists.And at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, were there still few people who overran?That prince didn't overstep?From this point of view, either Chen Shou was negligent when he wrote the Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms to Wu Shu, or it was the back door that Chen Shou deliberately left behind...

Of course, as a royalist, seeing Liu Xie so useless, especially this time Zhao Yun saw Liu Xie's hesitation and weakness with his own eyes, must have been a blow to Zhao Yun.

"The important task of the country is only for the meritorious, and it is divided into Shaanxi and governed, and it is really worthy.Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong in Changshan, brave and courageous, personally led the elite, chased Yinbei, beheaded generals and seized the flag, peaceful and quiet, loyal and filial, Kemin, long-term driving the humble court, meritorious service in the community, rich in qualifications.Today, according to the emperor's decree and the edict system, we will pay homage to General Pingbei, confer the title of Marquis of Quyangting, with two hundred euphemisms, send him to the pass, and lead the military in Youbeiyinshan!This edict! 』

Zhao Yun went forward to bow down, received the imperial edict with both hands, kowtowed thanks, got up, faced under the altar of worshiping generals, held the imperial edict high with both hands, the sound of clocks, drums, silk and bamboo was played, and he played a song of congratulations, while watching the ceremony from all over the world The soldiers and civilians shouted together, and they fell three times.

Zhao Yun turned around and bowed to Fei Qian again, Fei Qian nodded, and took a purple and white ribbon from the gold-patterned red primer plate from the side attendant, hung it on Zhao Yun's waist himself, and then awarded the gold seal.

Zhao Yun turned around again, accepted the congratulations from the soldiers and civilians, then paid homage to Fei Qian three times, and then slowly descended from the east passage to the second floor of the altar of worshiping generals, waiting for the street parade after the end.

The No.2 person standing on the altar of worshiping generals is Tai Shici who rushed back from Hangu.

Tai Shici was relatively close, and those who were far away and couldn't come back naturally had no way to accept Fei Qian's personal conferment on the spot, so they could only wait for Fei Qian to send someone to convey it separately.

"De Mao Mao Guan, Gong Mao Mao rewards, Ke Kuan Ke Ren, Fang Zheng You Xia."Donglai Tai Shi Ci Tai Shi Ziyi, courageous and powerful, first praised Qi Lue, personally led the flying 罴, rushed into Yuanbiao, cleared Huai Road, Wei Zhen Xiaoxiao, loyal to the king, suppressed police patrols, and comforted Heluo.Today, according to the emperor's decree and the edict system, worship the general who protects the town, seal the marquis of Pingting, and have a hundred and fifty euphemisms.This edict! 』

Tai Shici also received a purple and white ribbon and a gold seal with turtle buttons.

"Resist insults and rushes, protect the western lands with virtue, stop the army from attacking, and eliminate the legacy of troubles.Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan of Yanmen were loyal, filial and conspicuous, strategic and far-sighted, Xicheng rushed to the key points, suppressed the Tibetans, ruled Tibet, educated and educated the soldiers, had a good reputation, outstanding military exploits, and publicized internally and externally.Today, according to the emperor's decree and the edict system, we will worship the general who conquered the captives, and he will be granted the title of Marquis of Ting, the capital of Xidu, with a town of [-].This edict! 』

Zhang Liao stepped forward to receive the golden seal with purple ribbon.

Lu Bu was originally known as Marquis of Wen, but now he is changed to Marquis of Jiuyuan County, and he is called General Anxi.

Xu Huang and Wei Yan were commanding troops abroad, so they could not be present in person, so they just read out the imperial edict, awarded the generals of the town army and the generals of Shu, and awarded the green ribbon and gold seal to station in Guanzhong and Sichuan respectively.

There are also Huang Cheng, Ma Yan, Ma Yue, Zhang Ji, Zhang Xiu, Jiang Jiong, Gan Feng, Xu Ding, Meng Shu, Li Dian, Zhu Ling, Zhang Lie, etc., who are assigned the titles of Zhongjian General, Huya General, and Guerrilla General. , General Xiaoqi, and Captains of Tunqi, Yueqi, Infantry, Changshui, Shesheng, and Pinglu.The above colonel, although he is called a colonel, is actually roughly equivalent to a general of the fourth rank, so it is not bad.

As for those like Ling Jie, Liao Hua, Xu Yu, Wang Zhong, Liu Xiong, etc., who don't have any new merits for the time being, they have raised it a little bit, from the unknown school captain Duwei to a miscellaneous number, which is about the same as It was raised by half a level. Ling Jie was the captain of Jianzhong, and Zhang Chen was also posthumously named. Gong Jun was the captain of Jianyi and the captain of Kou.As for Liao Hua, he is the captain of the guard army, and it can be regarded as a little preference given by Fei Qian to this famous long-distance running general of the Three Kingdoms.

Huang Xu is the captain of Dingwei, and Xu Chu is new, and he is ranked behind Weidu. They are also Wuwei and Wuwei Duwei with a miscellaneous number.

Since it is called worshiping generals, Pang Tong and his like are basically regarded as spectators for the time being. Even if it is a half general like Xu Shu who adds points, since he is a civilian official, he can be called "Xiangxiang" at most. ’ instead of being called ‘general’.

At the same time, the guards of the four directions cannot be short of important generals for a long time, so the sealing of generals cannot be delayed. As for the civil servants...

The arrangement and promotion of Pang Tong and others were not carried out on the altar of worshiping the general, but on the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month, at the general's mansion.

Zhao Yun and others, under the guard of soldiers, galloped to Chang'an, and went around the city without mentioning it.Such a large-scale award has far-reaching significance. In addition to the system of military titles mentioned earlier, it also allows the nobles and commoners in Feiqian's current chassis to understand that under the three-color flag, there is such a strong team of generals that can protect safety. Stablize.At the same time, Fei Qian also took this opportunity to build a defensive theater in the four directions of east, west, north, south, and delineated a regional defense system, breaking the original county and county limitations of the Han Dynasty. It is still under the management of the county magistrate, which is especially important.

According to the laws of the Han Dynasty, soldiers from counties and counties could not be mobilized across counties. When Sun Jian was the prefect of Changsha, after defeating Ou Xing, Zhou Chao, Guo Shi and others rebelled in Lingling and Guiyang. Sun Jian crossed the county boundary, went to conquer, and finally calmed down.Although Sun Jian may not have all done it for the public good at the time, he was impeached even if he made meritorious service across counties and counties.

Now that the area defense system is established, the concept of the boundaries of counties and counties will become blurred and more flexible. Feiqian can increase or decrease the jurisdiction of the military region as needed to meet new needs, and also the military power and civil affairs. Complete separation will further reduce the authority of the local prefect. At the same time, it is also possible to easily check and balance the power of the general by adjusting the size of the military region, or simply rotate and change every five years, etc., which can effectively curb military factions. flood……

Of course, everything is established when the system is well maintained and the operation is compliant and effective. Most of the time, it is far easier to destroy than to build. Even the most perfect system can sometimes be broken.

If Feiqian's generation passes, it's hard to say whether what seems to be a good move by Feiqian at the moment will turn into a bad government under the sabotage and exploitation of some people.After all, there are still many factors of human beings' innate self-destruction, which makes some people want to abuse and vent their anger even when they read novels, let alone when interests are really involved?
The passionate people cheered for the glory of Zhao Yun and others, and when they saw the Lin Ruyue's marching troops, they shouted and jumped with excitement. However, among the nobles, not all of them were willing to eat wind and sand, drink rain and snow, walk through life and death, and fight. Nine wastes, perhaps because they feel that their weak body is not suitable for fighting, or because they feel that they are born with intelligence, and those who use knives and guns are too low-level, so these people are more interested in Zhao Yun and others. Those things that are displayed after being canonized...

"Tsk tsk, divide Shaanxi and govern..."

Some people began to wink their eyebrows and made various sounds tacitly.

And others who haven't read this allusion, or haven't remembered it, echoed it with a little embarrassment, and then asked those who had already understood it to explain one or two things.

"This is the allusion of King Zhou..."

"King Wu of Zhou died of illness, and King Cheng of Zhou was young and ignorant, so he was assisted by Zhou Gongdan and Zhao Gongshi..."

The destruction of Shang in the Western Zhou Dynasty was not accomplished overnight. Although the two generations of Zhou Wenwang and Zhou Wuwang finally completed the great cause of destroying Shang, Zhou Wuwang Ji Fa did not enjoy the mandate of heaven for a long time. Not long after the establishment of the Western Zhou Dynasty, or because of excessive Tired, or neglected because of contracting a disease, he died soon, without even having time to make arrangements for his death.

Although it was said that the son of King Wu of Zhou, King Cheng of Zhou, was pushed to the throne at that time, King Cheng was young and unable to govern. Therefore, a vacuum of royal power was formed in the Western Zhou Dynasty at that time, and the Western Zhou Dynasty was in turmoil.

At that time, Zhou Gongdan, as the younger brother of Zhou Wuwang Jifa, decided to act as the son of heaven to assist the young Zhou Chengwang and maintain the continuation of the Zhou Dynasty. However, Zhou Gongdan's move was opposed by many people. Not only were there opposition from distant princes, but even the clan members within the Zhou Dynasty had doubts about his administration as the emperor, and the biggest resistance came from Zhao Gongshi, who was of equal status.

Later, Zhou Gongdan persuaded Zhao Gongshi, and the two men divided the land of the Zhou Dynasty into two, and chiseled a [-]-meter-high stone pillar and planted it at the boundary, which is called "the pillar is the boundary".According to the historical record "Zuo Zhuan·Yin Gong Five Years" records: "Those who come from Shaanxi to the east, the princess of Zhou will take over; those who come from Shaanxi to the west, the princess will be called". It was during Wang's dangerous period that the later "Chengkang Reign" came into being.

Of course, Fei Qian’s use of Zhao Yun’s comments must not be miscalculated. After all, the word “dividing Shaanxi and governing” itself has the meaning of cutting out a part of the area and appointing talented people to manage it, and Zhao Yun’s management of Yinshan Youbei also means It is in line with this situation, but the question is, if this is not only aimed at Zhao Yun, but has another meaning?

Today in Shandong and Shanxi, together with the Xijing Shangshutai in Fei Qian's hands, isn't this the reappearance of Zhou Chengwang who was too young to manage politics, and then erected pillars as boundaries to divide things?
Then someone suddenly realized, "In the east, the Duke of Zhou quelled the rebellion of the survivors, and the Duke of Zhao encouraged Nongsang in the west, so there are words of Gantang... So, now, the Hussars want to follow the example of Duke Zhao?" 』

A group of people looked at each other and thought it was very possible. After all, there is indeed a rebellion in the east, and Cao Cao still has several opponents. On the other hand, Feiqian in the west is almost leveled, so it can be developed. Nong Sang.

"That's why there is a saying of "virtuous officials, meritorious rewards"..." Suddenly someone came up with a sentence, "Hussar's mind is really ingenious...First there is "Fenshan", and then there is "Mao Mao" ", tsk tsk, it's really wonderful, wonderful..." The so-called "virtue and meritorious officials, meritorious rewards" comes from "Shangshu Zhonghui Zhigao". Then give rich rewards.

"Zhong Hui's patent, this is Zhong Hui's patent!Ah, ha, this is an ancient document...』

"Hey, it's true to say so!Huqi hates the cumbersome modern texts, and it has been difficult to distinguish the prophecies and latitudes for a long time. "Fen Shan" refers to the official affairs of the Zhou Dynasty, which is also ancient, and "Zhe Chong" is also an elegant poem, all of which are taken from ancient Chinese!Woohoo, is it possible that this article is useless? 』

"This article is cumbersome, and there are many contradictions. Qinglong Temple has theories, and they are true. Ancient and modern articles, only the truth seeks truth..."

Immediately, the building was crooked, from the general's edict to the modern and ancient prose, and then it became more and more crooked.

Ordinary people generally just talk about the excitement, even if they really said something, they may not take it seriously, but the news spread to Cao Cao in Xu County a few days later, when these few edicts When it was placed on the table, Cao Cao couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion in his heart, which was hard to express for a while.

Especially the four words "dividing Shaanxi and governing" simply penetrated into Cao Cao's heart, and felt that the ink was like blood, and even the turning points of those strokes were extremely sharp, piercing the brain and making the heart feel depressed.

Although most people believe that the division of Zhou Gongdan and Zhao Gongshi laid the foundation for the rule of Chengkang, Cao Cao knew that in fact, the relationship between Zhou Gongdan, Zhao Gongshi, and Zhou Chengwang, It may not be as harmonious and beautiful as Confucianism extols...

Among the "dividing Shaanxi and governing", it was Zhao Gongshi who gained fame, and Zhou Gongdan was a bit like a dumb man eating coptis.

The Battle of Muye only defeated the central government of the Shang Dynasty. The local nobles may not completely submit to the Zhou Dynasty. However, King Wu of Zhou was short-lived and the young master was in power, so the ruling and opposition parties were unstable.As early as the period of King Wu, Zhou Gongdan, as an important member of the royal family, participated in all aspects of Zhou's regime construction.Zhou Gongdan has considerable political ability and has accumulated considerable political experience, so Zhou Gongdan seems to be a regent, but the problem is that Zhou Wuwang did not appoint him as a regent.

This is very interesting.

King Wen of Zhou had five children, Bo Yi Kao, the eldest son, Wang Fa of Wu, the third son, Guan Shuxian, the fourth son Zhou Gongdan, and Cai Shudu, the fifth son. Boyi Kao was made into human meat soup by King Zhou. He also pretended not to know, and praised it for its incomparable delicacy, so that King Zhou could rest assured and said, "Who is called the sage of Xibo, who eats his son's soup, I don't know yet", and finally let King Wen of Zhou go.

Therefore, when King Wu of Zhou died, Guan Shuxian and Cai Shudu were out fighting to suppress the princes. Therefore, among King Wu's direct younger brothers, Duke Zhou was the oldest and was in the court.

It is recorded in the Records of the Historian that "the King Cheng was young, and at the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty, the world was established. The Duke of Zhou feared that the princes would rebel against Zhou, so the Duke took charge of the administration to govern the country." 』That is to say, King Cheng is the legal and designated heir of King Wu. Duke Zhou's regent was not arranged by King Wu when he was dying, at least not a formal appointment, nor was it recommended by the Zhou royal family, but by Duke Zhou himself. decision.

"Historical Records Lu Shijia" records that Zhou Gong "practiced Zuo to become a king on behalf of the government, and took charge of the administration to rule the country". The Duke of Zhou proclaimed himself king and issued orders in the name of "Wang Ming".It can be seen that what the Duke of Zhou did was not only to act as a regent, but it is very likely that he directly kicked King Zhou Cheng aside and became king himself.

Then came the "Three Prisons Rebellion".The Rebellion of the Three Supervisors was actually Guan Shuxian and Cai Shudu's dissatisfaction with Zhou Gongdan's ruling. Therefore, the Rebellion of the Three Prisons had the nature of a struggle for the throne. Xun agreed to "divide Shaanxi and govern", and what was specifically agreed is untestable, but one thing is certain is that Zhou Gongdan promised to return the government to King Zhou Cheng in the future, so Zhao Gongshi was willing to be Zhou Gongdan As the back-up, Zhi Nongsang supports its operations.

The age of King Cheng of Zhou, about ten years old, is about the same as that of Liu Xie when Cao Cao served as Sikong and began to be regent. What, it is very clear.Cao Cao can even imagine that in Chang'an, Fei Qian's calm and slightly mocking face after passing these edicts...

Zhou Gongdan wanted to become a king, but he couldn't get rid of the confinement of the Zhou Dynasty, and he had to conquer the Quartet in the name of the Zhou Dynasty. As a result, after seven years of hard planning and management, he still had to return to King Cheng of Zhou. What about Cao Cao?

After being silent for a long time, Cao Cao finally slapped the table and stood up, shouting for wine, and then stood in the corridor under the hall, holding up the wine cup against the wind, "Having such an opponent is a joy in life!"Let's do it, who is Zhou Zhao? ! 』

After a few moments of emotion, Cao Cao suddenly thought of something, turned his head and stared at the copies of the Fei Qian seal on the table, and then a smile spread out, and then he laughed out loud, laughing to the point of tears The snot is almost sprayed out...
