Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 2022 The rules of the big man, Zhang Fei's means

In any case, in the four years of Taixing after the Salt and Iron Conference, the court in Xu County actually entered a rather rare period of political stability.

Naturally, there are many factors that affect this, but fundamentally speaking, most people are actually busy, so naturally they don't have the heart to talk about those trivial things.

The common people have to take care of Zhuanghe, the nobles are planning the fields, and the ruler Cao Cao wants to stabilize Jizhou. Xu County is somewhat relaxed here. It is not like the time period when General Hussars came. It seems that there is an atmosphere of instability everywhere. , Something might explode at any time.

The Jizhou Group fell, Yuan Shao died, and the Yuan family fell apart.But this does not mean that the Jizhou gentry were immediately labeled as losers and then knocked to the ground.

On the whole, the gentry in Jizhou failed, and the agent Yuan Shao was out. However, the gentry in Jizhou did not suffer much injury. These guys have more opportunities to control the place, after all, no one cares about it, so what to say in the countryside, or how to calculate, of course, these gentry have the final say.

It's like some companies in later generations went bankrupt and went bankrupt. The legal person and a large group of guys who worked in the company naturally fell apart, but it doesn't mean that the investors will also go bankrupt. In name, the most critical things in the company were plundered in advance as compensation for its investment, and the remaining tables, chairs and benches were thrown to the next company to start a company at a reduced price...

So now the Jizhou gentry are negotiating with Cao Cao, and no one wants to tear their face apart, and no one wants to lose the initiative.

But what is clear is that the Jizhou gentry and Cao Cao will reach a certain degree of agreement after all. After all, there is at least Hussar General Fei Qian, and even because of Fei Qian, the integration of the Jizhou gentry and Cao Cao will be faster and faster. Smoother.

The Son of Heaven and Empress Cao seem to be getting more and more harmonious. As Empress Cao's belly grows day by day, Liu Xie also seems to have become a little more calm as a father, and no longer blindly compete with Cao's group. There seems to be more harmonious atmosphere underneath.

Of course, many people know that such a peaceful atmosphere may not last long.

It is very realistic, what is in front of us is the disaster situation in various places, and now they are doing disaster relief and busy with replanting, so no one has paid attention to the issue of the subsequent autumn harvest. Relax, if you still want to maintain the original taxes, and even recruit civilians to assist in the battle, then...

But the question is will Cao Cao stop fighting?
It's hard for anyone to say, and it seems that, from south to north, there seems to be murderous intentions everywhere.Facing the interior of the court, Liu Xie showed some methods, which seemed to be effective, but Liu Xie was powerless against this external threat.

Although Liu Xie, the Son of Heaven of the Great Han Dynasty, has shown some ability to coordinate conflicts and some political skills through the Salt and Iron Conference, he is still immature to these veterans who play politics.Of course, immaturity is not a problem for ordinary young emperors, because other emperors still have opportunities, make mistakes, and have time to learn, but for Liu Xie, the cost of these learning opportunities is very high of.

Whether it is possible for the emperor Liu Xie to transform himself into the "Second Liu Xiu", even the most optimistic royalists may not have a bottom line.This is more or less understandable, after all, the forbidden curse of the great magister Liu Xiu is not something anyone can learn if he wants to.These people place more hope on Liu Xie to become another emperor, an emperor who is also young and turbulent, and succeeds to the throne.

In all fairness, in such a country where the Han flag has been flying for 400 years, even though the status of Liu's emperor is a little shaken at the moment, many people will still leave a place in their hearts.

As for the current situation...

There is no way, in fact, many things, or rules, have already collapsed.For example, the most simple example is that the dispatched officials of the Han Dynasty must have their family members in Kyoto. Whether they are prefects, governors, or state shepherds, their family members must stay in Kyoto, especially the eldest son, who must be in Kyoto!
Even during the period of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, who was known for his mediocrity, Liu Yu was sent out to be the governor of Youzhou, and his son Liu He was left in Luoyang; Liu Yan was sent out to be the shepherd of Yizhou, and his son Liu Fan had to stay in the capital...

This used to be an iron law that could not be changed. If the dispatched officials dared to take the eldest son to escape, the yellow mud would fall into his crotch. It was not a mutiny or a rebellion. I am afraid that the court would send troops to arrest him immediately!
But what about now?
Cao Pi followed Cao Cao and ran around. As for Hussar General Fei Qian, there were only two words left.

Once the rules are broken, it is difficult to stand up again!
Therefore, rules are very important!
Rules cannot be broken!
What are the rules of the Han court?It represents the interests of the broadest gentry!

What are the rules of the Han law?It is to protect the interests of all gentry children from infringement!

It's like if a merchant dares to sell ordinary ducks under the name of noble ducks of the gentry, he must have smashed the brand of the merchant who sold the ducks, and by the way, ransacking his home is absolutely unforgivable, but conversely, if the gentry deliberately smashed the artisans, If it is disabled, at most it will pay two hundred dollars...

The first thing a local official has to do when he is newly appointed as the prefect is to summon the village elders and assure the local tyrants on the spot that whoever has trouble with the local tyrants of the gentry, he will have trouble with anyone!The people... Uh, the local tyrants don't care about anything, they don't arrest them if they can, and they don't move if they can!Respond to every call, do not disturb anything, never fail to be called, always on call...

No matter how bad it is, I also want to show that I will show the courage and responsibility of a big local official when facing problems, contradictions and pressures!Worried about the worries of the local tyrants, choked up by the difficulties of the big rural households...

This is the rule!
These are the "rules" that, as a great Han dynasty, as a court official of a great Han, one should have and understand!
As a result, a nonsensical "Law of Lending Orders" came...

Since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, it has been usury for gentry officials to borrow money from ordinary people. The most is 100%, the least is 5.00%, and the least is [-]%. Therefore, the "Law of Loan Order" [-]%, what the hell is that?There is such a thing? !

Temeow's hussar general Feiqian got water in his head?

The emperor eats the gentry, the gentry eats the common people, the common people eat the soil, and the soil eats... well, don’t care what the soil eats, isn’t this the iron law anyway?Isn't it a thousand-year-old rule to kill people and pay for their lives, and pay debts and money?
5.00%?

Those guys in Shanxi are so pitiful...

Regardless of whether it is Jizhou or Yuzhou, while these Shandong gentry are indignant, they also have some pity for the Shanxi gentry in their hearts, which is probably similar to the feeling of sadness when a rabbit dies and a fox.

There was a lot of disturbance for a while.

Jizhou, Yuzhou, various discussions in groups of three or four.

Wine shops, manors, all kinds of noises.

The smell of meat, the scent of tea, the retractable neck in the curtain.

"Heaven committed evil.It can still be violated.Self-inflicted.Impossible... aha...」

"Do evil!Do evil! 』

"Listen to a certain word!After this incident, Guanzhong will be in chaos! 』

"There must be chaos!There must be chaos! 』

"The actions of the hussars are fatuous and senseless, and bring about their own destruction..."

"Death!perish! 』

The son of the gentry after he said hi, his face was flushed, he put his arms around the new and tender girl who had only been sold in the past few days, raised his glass and laughed loudly, as if he had foreseen the day of the demise of Hussar General Fei Qian ,coming soon!

I thought it was really a "Hussar", but it turned out to be a "Dong Zhuo"!A calm, thoughtful, and powerful hussar is undoubtedly worrying and terrifying, but if you remove the previous definitions and only have pure strength and a chaotic mind, then you are nothing more than a warrior !

A warrior!
That being the case, what is there to worry about?
If so, what is there to be afraid of?

Haha, come on, raise your glass!
And better than drinking!
...o(^.^)Y!!Y(^.^)a...

Nanzhong.

Dianchi Lake.

Liu Bei's garrison.

"If you want to enter Cochin, you have to go through the gate of hell first!" ’ Liu Bei said in a deep voice, ‘This must be fought here! 』

The ghost gate is not the illusory gate in religion, but an unavoidable dangerous gate in front of Liu Bei and others.

Detour, of course.

But if Liu Bei made a detour, but Shi Xie was able to walk in a straight line, and then Shi Xie raided Liu Bei's rear, the detour was only halfway through, should he continue to march, or return to the army for rescue?

Therefore, opening the gate of ghosts means prying open the gate of Cochin.

Going south from central Sichuan, crossing Lushui River, passing Dianchi Lake in the hinterland of Nanzhong, and winding along the valley, you will arrive at Guimen Mountain and Longgou Ridge.In the 17th year of Jianwu, General Fubo of the Eastern Han Dynasty led more than [-] troops to conquer Linyi. He also passed through this pass. He once erected a monument and called it the gate of ghosts, which shows how dangerous it is.

The ghost gate is closed between the two mountains. The city wall is three feet high, five feet thick, and more than ten feet long. It is surrounded by ghost gate mountain and Longgou mountain on the left and right.

Between the two mountains, there is only a flat land about two or three miles long, where troops can be stationed.In the narrow valley in front of the pass, there is not enough space to accommodate a large number of troops to form a queue, which means that no matter how many troops there are, the number of inputs is limited. Under consumption, even a large army can often only look at the pass and sigh.

With such a dangerous pass, the Cochin Kingdom can always be on the edge of the Han territory, close to each other...

It is almost an impossible task to overcome such a pass. It can be said that since the official opening of the gate of hell, there has been no experience of being forcibly broken through.With such a dangerous pass as a heavy reliance, after years of recuperation, Jiaozhi Shixie is basically not afraid of the conquest by Liu Bei and others, and even sneered a little.

Even these tyrants in Nanzhong have some doubts in their hearts. Although they have obtained a lot of benefits after Liu Bei's operation, they are also eager for more benefits, but when they get the news of the ghost gate , They inevitably had some doubts about Liu Bei.

Such a dangerous pass, even if General Hussars attacked it himself, I am afraid he would have to hesitate again and again...

So Meng Yan also hesitated.

Really want to fight?This casualty is probably...

Meng Yan is a full-time working man, although he is not tall, he is also brave and fierce, and is quite famous in Nanzhong.As for Meng Huo, at this moment, he is still Meng Yan's younger brother.

This time Nanzhong, headed by Zhu Timengyan, made some profits and obtained some official positions. Naturally, he had to put in some strength, but everyone knows that these strengths are not bottomless. Need to re-evaluate.And Meng Yan, in the name of assisting, ensured that the Nanzhong tycoons' bets on Liu Bei would not be lost.

Liu Bei was very calm, and the reason for his calm was that he had no way out, only struggling forward.

"Xiu Ming, how are those under your command?" Liu Bei seemed to have noticed Meng Yan's hesitation, turned his face, and asked Meng Yan.

"General, please rest assured. Meng Yan arched his hands, opened his eyes and said, "When the time comes, as long as the general gives an order, our warriors will definitely charge forward and never retreat. 』

"Um.Of course, I don’t have any worries under Xiu Ming...” Liu Bei said slowly, “It’s just that Shi Weiyan is spreading his harvest fields, attracting people’s hearts, and pretending to be a blessing to the world. Of course people with a discerning eye know that he is just a lie, but It's hard to guarantee that someone will be deceived by him... Maybe someone will tip him off...』

Meng Yan's eyelids twitched, and he quickly said, "General, don't worry!My subordinates are all sensible, and it is absolutely impossible to cooperate with the enemy! 』

"That's good..." Liu Bei said with a gentle smile, "If all the news is leaked, how can you be so quick and unexpected? 』

Meng Yan nodded, also smiled, and then said: "What the general said is, but if we enter the army like this, let alone the front of the pass, even if we walk one or two hundred miles, we will be discovered by the guards at the gate of hell... What, what?" It can't be said that soldiers are expensive and fast? 』

"It's okay, but it's just a detour, avoiding the truth and attacking the false." ”Liu Bei said casually, “Xiu Ming will see soon…”

Meng Yan laughed, nodded, and said nothing more.

Then there were some matters related to military affairs, but basically there were no major objections. After deciding how to cooperate with each other in the short term and what to do, Meng Yan left.

Guan Yu looked at the back of Meng Yan who was going away, and sneered.

Such hills and forests, full of ravines and ravines, declare war first and then enter the army?

Is it still serious to swear to the teacher first, and then the army advances together?

When the three Liu Bei brothers went to the battlefield to fight the Yellow Turbans, they just sneaked into the village and shot... Uh, if you don’t swear to your teacher, you can kill the Yellow Turban bandits by surprise. Positive, isn't it what a fool is?
Besides, the gate of hell is so dangerous that everyone knows that it is difficult to fight, so who would really fight with soldiers piled up head-on?

If you want to break the gate of hell, you must use means...

Liu Bei stroked his beard and said, "Nanzhong has no fighting spirit..."

Guan Yu stroked his long beard, and said proudly: "Without these Nanzhong people, a certain person can overcome the ghost gate!" 』

Liu Bei laughed, "It's April now, if it gets hotter as usual, there will be mosquitoes and insects in the mountains and forests, and it's hard to guard against... But right now, haha, it's God's help..."

Guan Yu squinted, and a cold light bloomed in his pupils, "If this person is still double-faced after overcoming the gate of hell, don't blame Guan for taking the opportunity to kill him!" 』

Liu Bei patted Guan Yu's shoulder and said nothing.

It is not uncommon for people to engage in local tyrants when they come up, and to arrest and kill each other as soon as they meet each other, such as Sun Jian.But what happened to Sun Jian?Back then when Sun Jian faced Dong Zhuo under Taiwei Zhang Wen's tent, he didn't have anything else to say, "Kill!" 』So if the traveler likes to kill and kill without thinking, it is right to join the Sun family.

At that time, the reason why Taiwei Zhang Wen didn't kill Dong Zhuo was not because Zhang Wen liked Dong Zhuo, or because Zhang Wen was weak, but because Zhang Wen knew that if Dong Zhuo was killed, there would be chaos!
Just like now, Liu Bei and others also know that Meng Yan is slack in marching into Jiaozhi, but if Meng Yan is killed right away, new problems will immediately arise in Nanzhong, which has just established a new order!

Liu Bei knew that Meng Yan and others were not very enthusiastic about cochin.

Of course, this is nonsense. After all, these tyrants in Nanzhong have stayed on this territory for at least decades, and many have been in the past for hundreds of years. The speed is slightly higher, and it is not Shi Xie's turn to do anything.

Nanzhong is so handsome, he seems to be walking sideways, calling the wind and rain on his own land, but in the eyes of Liu Bei and others who have seen the world, they are just a group of nests, as long as they leave their own land and go outside the mountain , it doesn't even count as fart.

Just like Shi Xie, he is still a figure in Jiaozhi, if he gets Zhongyuan...

Ha ha.

Shi Xie's generation seems to be quite good, but in the eyes of many people, they are just like clowns, not worth mentioning.This is not contempt or neglect, but the general trend.If the north is restless, then Shi Xie can be peaceful. If the Central Plains is pacified, Shi Xie must bow his head and shake his tail immediately.In a tiny place, it is undoubtedly a daydream to want to compete with the Central Plains.

In fact, this is indeed the case. Most of those assigned to Jiaozhi in the Eastern Han Dynasty were guys with full-level skills. .Naturally, these people in Jiaozhi still mainly talk about it. On the one hand, they hate the Central Plains extremely, and on the other hand, they are extremely longing for the Central Plains. Finally, they have created an extremely contradictory cultural atmosphere in Jiaozhi.

Can't go up, can't go down.Arrogance mixed with low self-esteem.

During the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Cham people even killed the magistrate of Xianglin County in Rinan County of the Han Dynasty, and became independent from the Eastern Han Dynasty, occupying most of the original Rinan County, and established the so-called "Champa Kingdom" with Brahmanism as the state religion. It is bounded by Hue County with the Eastern Han Dynasty.Then Shi Xie couldn't beat such a big treason twice, so he just gave up, as if he couldn't see it...

How does this make the three Liu Bei brothers think highly of Shi Xie and his ilk?
Liu Bei looked at the south and said, "This time, it depends on the methods of the third brother..."
