MTL - Three Kingdoms-Chapter 2812 There is no fragrant grass anywhere in the world, why bother to love only one flower

  Chapter 2812 Where there is no grass in the end of the world, why bother to love a flower alone

  The big city of Hanzhong, apart from Nanzheng, is Shangyong.

  The land of Shangyong is also called Dongsanjun, but this name appeared in the middle and late period of the Three Kingdoms, and it is still called Shangyong, Fangling and Xicheng three counties today. However, judging from the appellation in the middle and late period, there are naturally some special reasons why Hanzhong is not called Xiji County, but Shangyong, Fangling and Xicheng are separately called Dongsan County.

As early as the period of Emperor Ling of the Eastern Han Dynasty, this area belonged to Yizhou. However, after Zhang Lu and Liu Yan and Liu Zhang fell out, Zhang Lu took control of the Hanzhong Nanzheng area, and also removed the Shangyong area from Yizhou territory. The inside is independent. During the period of Zhang Lu, the land of Shangyong neither completely surrendered to Zhang Lu, nor did it get in touch with Liu Yan and Liu Zhang. In these three small areas.

It was not until Fei Qian defeated Zhang Lu and after the troops came to the city of Shangyong that the three places of Shangyong joined Fei Qian's command, and then Huang Cheng took the town of Shangyong to train the troops, but soon Huang Cheng became Wei Yanzai. After training the soldiers, Wei Yan entered Sichuan, Shangyong was encouraged by Zhang Ze, half pushed and rolled together with Zhang Ze flirting. In the end, I didn't expect that when the adultery was not so hot, the so-called Crouching Tiger in Hanzhong was directly beaten into Nanzheng's sick cat...

The Shangyongshen brothers were so frightened that they split their urine, and quickly said that they were not familiar with Zhang Ze at all, and that they were all victims, crying and shouting that they hoped for the stars and the moon and finally waited for Fei Qian Send troops to restore Shangyong and other places, and then go to Chang'an to show loyalty.

   It's just that Fei Qian saw through the evil intentions of the Shangyongshen brothers, so he didn't pay attention to it at all.

  The three places of Shangyong belong to tasteless areas most of the time, and occasionally become strategic places, but they can't last long. They are often of an excessive nature, and they are thrown away when they are used up.

   The importance of geography is also shared by the three places of Shangyong. The three eastern counties are the main traffic routes connecting Jingzhou, Yizhou, and Hanzhong, but the problem is that there are many mountains in the territory. Although they are connected by Mian River, the three places are almost self-contained, and they have been semi-closed to the outside world for a long time. , It seems that some mountains and rivers are dangerous, but the problem is that there is no system at all, and there is no natural barrier, so it is just difficult to walk, not impossible.

  So as long as anyone really wants to fight the Yongsan, if there is no foreign aid in the Shangyong, basically they can fight, but it’s just a matter of time. In history, the three places in Shangyong often changed hands. Just like in history, after Liu Bei entered Sichuan and took Hanzhong, he divided his troops into two groups. One route sent Meng Da from Jingzhou to the north, and the other route Liu Feng traveled from Hanzhong from west to east along Mianshui. As for Xiacai, he directly forced brothers Shen Dan and Shen Yi to surrender.

The Shen family of Shen Dan and Shen Yi has been cultivating in Shangyong for a long time, and has gathered more than a thousand households. It is already a powerful force in the relatively isolated East Three Counties. Therefore, regarding the governance of Shangyong, regardless of Whether in history or in the present, they are basically in a state of mandated autonomy.

   Of course, this is also related to the strategy of the Shen brothers to have both sides.

  Or called the turtle strategy.

  The handling of this area, whether it is Fei Qian or several big shots in history, is actually very similar, that is, the way to deal with chicken ribs.

  War is not a game.

   Except for impulsive guys like Lu Bu, most normal people will definitely think about what they want to fight this war before launching a war?

   If it doesn’t make sense, even if a certain area is easy to attack, as a decision maker, you should not be tempted by it because it is easy to attack, because the decision maker needs to consider a higher-level strategy.

  The land of Shangyong, in fact, is such a piece, it can be regarded as a very famous tasteless area in the Three Kingdoms period...

   It's like Liu Feng and Meng Da captured Shangyong in history. In fact, it was not simply for the three counties of Shangyong, but for the preparations for the follow-up Northern Expedition to Luoyang and Chang'an!

  So in history, after Liu Bei took control of the Shangyong land, only two months later, Guan Yu led the Jingzhou Corps to march directly, starting the most suspenseful and controversial Northern Expedition in the history of the Three Kingdoms, attacking Fancheng and Xiangyang!

But many times, when people in later generations discuss certain things, they often only view the success or failure one-sidedly, and seldom consider other factors. Stepping into sixties...

   At that time, Liu Bei and Cao Cao had been fighting for more than 20 years. Therefore, after becoming the king of Hanzhong, Liu Bei, who wanted to become an emperor, inevitably had ideas to resolve the battle in a short time. Seizing the entire upper and middle reaches of the Han River and completely completing the preparations for the Northern Expedition to Chang'an and Luoyang have also become Liu Bei's urgent strategic goals to be resolved and completed.

  Although there is controversy over whether Guan Yu should carry out the Northern Expedition during this period, there is one link that is not controversial, that is, in history, Liu Bei seized the three eastern counties and the area from Fancheng to Xiangyang. There is nothing wrong with this military goal.

  But when Guan Yu was backstabbed by Sun Zha, the Jingzhou Corps was quickly defeated, and even Liu Bei in Sichuan and Shu couldn't react, and then indirectly triggered Mengda's rebellion, and finally the three eastern counties were captured by the Cao Wei Group. After this series of changes became a fact, the changes in the situation also quietly changed the strategic position of the three eastern counties. To put it simply, it has changed from a strategically important area to a tasteless area. Zhuge Liang's subsequent Northern Expeditions, at most, hoped that the three eastern areas would be contained, and did not take it as the direction of the main force.

Since the three counties of Jingzhou have been lost, even if the Shuhan Group sends troops to capture the Dongsan County area, the north of the Dongsan County is the Cao Wei Group, and the south of the Dongsan County is the Soochow, which is at odds with each other and may be stabbed in the back at any time. group. Having learned from the surprise attack in Jingzhou back then, the Shuhan Group will definitely not make a strategy of trapping itself into a situation where the north and the south are attacking.

   Soochow, the same is true. Sun Quan, who had already occupied most of the territory of Jingzhou, had no interest in this area, because even if Sun Quan took Jingzhou as the fulcrum of the Northern Expedition, he could take the mature route of attacking Xiangyang, Fancheng, without entering this area to climb mountains and ford water.

  The Cao Wei Group in the north is even more so. Even though they seem to control the three eastern counties, since this area is not the upper reaches of the Han River, it is really difficult to attack the Hanzhong area upstream by water and land. Go south to attack Jingzhou from this area, and lack the support of water and land, if you go south to conquer Sun Quan. The Cao Wei Group can also go south by water and land from Xiangyang, Fancheng, and there is no need to send troops from the three east counties with rugged mountain roads.

  So in the later period of the Three Kingdoms, anyone can win the Yong Sandi, but no one is interested.

  Including Fei Qian who controlled Hanzhong, he did not invest much in the three places of Shangyong. Because this area is a mixed area of ​​Han people and barbarians, with more mountains and less flat land, the population is relatively sparse. It is very suitable to train mountain soldiers. After all, there are mountains around, but if you send a large army to station, it will be difficult to get effective supplements, whether it is from soldiers or food supplies.

Therefore, Feiqian generally treats Shangyong as a subsidiary place, neither letting go easily nor investing too much, especially before the Shen brothers' influence in Shangyong area is completely eliminated, Feiqian is It will not focus on how much money and effort is invested in the Shangyong area.

   All of these, strategically or from the actual situation of the region, naturally determine that the Shangyong area is now a state where grandma does not love uncles, parents ignore them, and there are no brothers and sisters.

Between people, people are most afraid of comparing each other, especially when the Shen brothers watched Nanzheng become a transit point and made rapid progress all the way, while the land of the upper reaches can only rely on the small caravans that take the route of Wancheng and Xiangyang to eat and drink. , It is inevitable that there will be some gaps in my heart.

  The local tyrants have reached the level of the Shen family, and it will not be easy to go up...

   These days, Shen Dan and Shen Yi are worrying almost every day.

The two of them are now under the command of the hussars, but apart from a title and local autonomy, they have not been given anything, not to mention the various investment and construction in Nanzheng, and even the original Shangyong three places were damaged due to the war. Some areas in the country are also ignored.

The Shen brothers have almost packed their itinerary during this period of time. They not only went to Hanzhong, but also went to Chang'an, and even went to Xu County secretly. After meeting Xun Yu from Xu County, He pulled down his old face again to be a kid, and accompanied the Xun family and the Chen family in Yingchuan to feast and have fun, intentionally flattering them, in order to ask for a future way out for the Shen family...

   It's a pity that Xun Yu also knows very well that the Shen family can stealthily dig into the hidden corners to benefit the Shen family, so the Shen family is naturally very likely to stab Cao Cao's chrysanthemum in the future. Therefore, Xun Yu basically just took the attitude of hitting a few shots casually with or without dates. It is of course good to plant some nails for Fei Qian in the mediocrity, but it doesn't matter if he doesn't have the support of the Shen brothers.

  Although Cao Jun said that Fangling is located west of Xiangyang, which can be regarded as close at hand, and there are almost no defenders in Fangling, Cao Ren did not dare to act rashly. Because for Cao Jun, the real trouble is not Shangyong but Chang'an, and the important thing is not the Shen brothers but Fei Qian himself.

  Under such circumstances, it is conceivable what good the Shen brothers of Shangyong can do.

Among the three places of Shangyong, the powerful local commanders are not small. Whether they are mediocre or Di people, there are copycat tribes, but these tribes and cottages are not connected with each other to fight against the court, or to want to fight against the court. To fight for independence is more just for self-preservation and survival. In this regard, the goals of these ethnic minorities in the Shangyong area are not the same as those in other areas.

Fei Qian is definitely not a brutal leader, and he also did not adopt any very harsh government orders for these few mediocre people in Shangyong and other places, which made it difficult for Shen to find anything particularly good The reason for this, let alone let these people beat him to death for him.

  The last time Shen Yi went to Xu County, she wanted to make money from it.

   But he was disappointed.

"The hussars don't want to use our people..." Shen Yi said somewhat angrily, "When I was in Chang'an in Guanzhong, the hussars mostly used martial arts, and they were from a poor family. They didn't have good relations with us... It's hard for a martial arts man from a poor family. You have long wisdom, if you lose your grasp, the hussars may...chaos may happen in an instant...』

  Shen Yi traveled both east and west. On the whole, he is still more used to the atmosphere in Shandong. In addition to the presence of the Son of Heaven in Shandong, perhaps for Shen Yi, Shen Yi was filled with inexplicable resentment when she was refused several times in Chang'an to see the hussars.

   At least he saw Xun Yu in Xu County, but even Pang Tong didn't bother to see him in Chang'an.

  Is this question...

  Of course Shen Yi doesn't think this is her problem.

  For Huqi, Fei Qian has a lot of things to deal with. Among other things, the administrative documents that require Fei Qian's signature and distribution can fill up two or three desks every day!

  Even if you just glance at the summary, then scan the ten lines to see if there are any discrepancies, and then sign and print, the whole process will take at least five or six minutes to write a document, and more complicated ones will take more time to think and measure.

In addition to these matters, Fei Qian also takes time to inspect various places, inspecting Chang'an Sanfu towns, military camps, workshops, water conservancy, etc. Basically, the schedule is full, even if he has some free time, he will sit down with his wife Wouldn't it be nice to just sit and chat and play with your child for a while? Why do you have to pretend to be a polite corporal for others to see?

   After all, Fei Qian has already passed the time period for posing.

   What's more, when Shen Yi was in Chang'an, she still boasted that she was very tall, but she just blindly went to find hussars. Naturally, she was repeatedly rejected, which led to resentment. If you follow the process and report some practical problems, you may still have a chance to meet.

  After Shen Yi arrived in Shandong, on the one hand, it might be Pei Heng's recommendation, and on the other hand, Shen Yi might have a little more self-knowledge, and didn't blindly go to see Cao Cao. Think about it, if Shen Yi went to Xu County, Shandong, she would only want to see Cao Cao, so if Cao Cao was not in Xu County but in Yecheng, it would be hard to run back to see Shen Yi in order to let Shen Yi Is there a style of Zhou Gong in a compliment?

  Does Cao Cao need this compliment from Shen Yi?

  People often feel that they are not at fault, and that others are at fault.

  So Shen Yi felt that Hu Qi was not good, and Lao Cao was not bad.

   Of course, the main reason for this is that there are some differences in the talent system between Fei Qian and Cao Cao. Fei Qian's place has basically become a scientific examination system, and there are no recommended ones. After all, Fei Qian has a list in his heart, and only those who are impressed will be specially promoted. On the outside, it seems that he also has a filial piety, but in fact it is completely different from Shandong.

  Shandong also implemented imperial examinations, but encountered trouble again and again. Cao Cao used the children of the poor family, and those wealthy and local tyrants played for the children of the poor family to find fault with everyone, even the bones of dinosaurs could be picked out from the eggs. So on the whole, the talent system in Shandong still pays more attention to personal background and interpersonal relationship.

  Shen Dan was silent at the side.

   These days, he is also constantly thinking.

  Zhang Lu, Zhang Ze, Liu Zhang, Liu Biao, etc. are like a revolving lantern. What will happen in the future, is it Shandong or Shanxi, Cao Cao or Feiqian? For Shen Dan, this is a very difficult matter to decide.

   If you follow Feiqian, then the juetian system is an unavoidable problem.

For the Shen family that has been operating in Shangyong for a long time, the Juetian system is like a shackle stuck around their necks, or a knife hanging above their heads. The fat meat, the money and food that have been collected in the warehouse of the family through untold hardships, are likely to be taken away with the fall of the juetian system...

  This is the most critical question.

  If you want to exempt Jue Tian from incremental taxation, you must have military merits.

  But this military exploit...

   Difficult.

While Shen Dan was thinking, Shen Yi was still rambling on, "...the Zhang family in Xixian County was originally a son of the Han family, but now they are the magistrate of a county, just because of the name of hussars, they are domineering and domineering." …In recent days, they have openly called the head of Guizhou to preach the scriptures, teach arithmetic, measure the land, and use the reason of young crops to lend money to the fields, and even went to General Li to borrow cattle and horses...』

"Um? ’ Shen Dan seemed to come back to his senses suddenly, turned his head and asked, ‘What did you just say? 』

  『Cows and horses? General Lee? ’ Shen Yi didn’t know what Shen Dan wanted to ask, so she repeated, ‘Is it a loan from young crops? 』

  『No,』 Shen Dan frowned and said, 『You just said... to measure the land? 』

"ah! ”Shen Yi also reacted, and her face darkened immediately, “Brother...could it be... Hussars want to attack us, right? 』

   Shen Dan couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva.

Over the past period of time, the Hussars have almost cleaned up the Xiongnu, Xianbei, Wuhuan, Qiang, Di, and Ji people around them, which makes these less powerful mediocre and Di people in Shangyong almost trembling. They didn't dare to act rashly at all, and at the same time, it made it impossible for the Shen brothers to get any extra support from mediocrity.

Now, not only the mediocre and Di people, but also the Han people in the three places of Shangyong seem to have begun to be influenced by Fei Qian, which naturally makes the Shen brothers sit on the stove, roasting their buttocks Raw smoke...

As the sons of the gentry, they control the knowledge. The last thing they want to see is that ordinary people in Qianshou know something that they "should not know". What they want to see most is that they say that the common people don't understand. The common people also don't understand that those ordinary people in Qianshou only need to work every day.

  But the county magistrate Zhang Zhangzhang, who is now located in Xi County, this guy from a humble background, not only wants to pass on that knowledge to ordinary people in Guishou, do arithmetic with scriptures, and measure land?

   What is this for?

  Especially when I heard that Zhang Zhang went to find Li Dian...

  At the same time, Li Dian also summoned Di Renwang some time ago, and has opened a so-called trial field, saying that he wants to demonstrate the latest farming technology, and so on, which makes the Shen brothers in Shangyong panic. The ability they rely on for survival, or the channel for them to obtain extra profits, isn't it to bully those ordinary Qianshou and rural people who are "ignorant"?

   Now if these Qianshoudi people are starting to become "smart", where will their profits come from? At that time, as soon as the juetian system was implemented...

   Shen Dan could not help but shudder.

  『This matter…』Shen Dan said slowly, 『There must be a countermeasure…』
