Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 2516 Not everything goes well

  『This time…』

   Fei Qian looked at the information in his hand, with a surprised expression on his face, "Why do I feel that I was used by Prime Minister Cao?" 』

  Cao Cao's abnormal move to kill the "Firefighter" was naturally like a gust of wind, howling and passing away.

  In fact, in history, Cao Cao also did the same thing.

   It was also the same Xuchang Rebellion, and the one who died in the rebellion at that time was Cao Cao Chief Shi Wangbi.

  Even Cao Pi was in Xuchang at the time, Lao Cao was almost about to face the pain of losing his son again!

The great changes in Xudu made Cao Cao unclear how much resistance Xudu still had, and how many people were pretending to be submissive. Cao Cao, furious and suspicious, decided to cut the mess quickly. He would rather kill by mistake than miss it. …

The extent of the Xuchang rebellion this time in history, roughly, you can imagine that during Liu Bei’s battle in Hanzhong, Zhuge Liang who was guarding the rear was assassinated, or when Zhuge Liang’s Northern Expedition, Jiang Wan who stayed behind died in Chengdu inexplicably during the rebellion , what would it feel like?

   And anyway, it is the basic operation of Lao Cao.

  This time, what Lao Cao did was not exactly the same as in history, but it was a little unclear whether there were spies hidden by Fei Qian or internal agents.

  Thunder means!

  It's a pity that deterrence must be effective, but accidental injury is not small...

  Pang Tong nodded and said, "Ha, I feel the same way. Prime Minister Cao...It's a very good use of this smooth sailing...It's just a pity...』

   Feiqian was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled, "No problem..."

  Pang Tong was very puzzled, how could it be all right?

   Fei Qian glanced at Pang Tongtong and said, "War...is not just about swords and guns..."

  Pang Tong nodded and said, "There is still money and food!" 』

Fei Qian laughed, "Yes, and..." Fei Qian wanted to say the word information, but stopped when he reached his mouth, because he knew that Pang Tong might not know what information war is and how it evolved from information war. other types of wars that came out.

  『Qinglong Temple? ’ Pang Tong asked.

   Fei Qian nodded, "Part of it. 』

  『A part? Pang Tong repeated, and then asked with some doubts and puzzlement, "Please enlighten me, my lord." 』Isn't it all about scholars, farmers, industry and commerce? Qinglong Temple is a scholar, money is a merchant, tools and utensils are a worker, and Zhuanghe food and grass are naturally farmers. Isn’t this another mode of warfare besides soldiers?

  Fei Qian frowned, because some things are concepts that only later generations have. For a while, he didn't know how to say it would be more appropriate, but seeing Pang Tong's eyes, Fei Qian seemed to be back at the foot of Lushan in a trance.

  At that time, Pang Tong was often puzzled by some conceptual problems, and then he unabashedly yearned for new knowledge.

  『Let’s put it this way...』 Fei Qian stroked his short beard, 『Some time ago, we actually sent some people to Shandong and Jiangdong, right? Well, there are also those who go to southern Sichuan and the Western Regions. 』

  Pang Tong nodded. He knew this, and he still had the list in his hand.

  『These people, what I ask them is that they don’t need to say whether Guanzhong is good or not, just do more things... 』 Fei Qian said slowly, 『What are you doing? Do things that the people like...a farmer helps the people take care of the crops, a worker helps repair tools, and even a Taoist priest relieves worries and spreads good things...』

  『Why do these things? It’s because doing these things will help the people on the one hand, and protect them on the other hand…』

  Pang Tong nodded and said: "That's right, as long as they do this, as long as they don't meet fools, there is basically no danger." 』This is the truth. At first Pang Tong didn’t quite understand it when he took over this job, but then he discovered that this is the key to Fei Qian’s placement of eyeliner.

Generally speaking, at the moment of the big man, the spies and spies in most people's minds are either treacherous and cunning, or they are either disturbing, stealing, or buying as in the Guanzhong incidents these few times. Wait, the kind that don't do "good things" anyway.

   That is to say, even if these people are not spies, as long as they do this kind of thing, they may be caught!

   And once it is reversed, it will be interesting.

  When a person does things that are conducive to local stability and people’s well-being, even if someone says that this person is a spy, it will arouse suspicion from others, "You call such a good person a spy?" You are a spy who does not do good things! 』

  So these people can easily gain a foothold in various places and reduce their own danger.

This point is that Fiqian's spies, or eyeliners, or other names, these people have great security in various regions, and only after personal protection can they do other things things, and most of those things are pretty risk-free...

   Such as passing messages. Some news is not even sent directly by them, but they collect it in normal times, and then communicate with some specific people at certain times, and they don't even avoid others!

For example, go to the market to buy, and bargain with the people in the caravan, saying that the utensils in Chang’an are easy to use, but the blacksmith’s shop here is not good, because the old blacksmith’s hand was injured a while ago, and he has no money to treat it. As a result, he is disabled. There are no new irons for miles...

   Then they gathered here in Chang'an, and they knew that there was a shortage of craftsmen in a certain place, and there were no backup blacksmiths. In a region, even craftsmen who produce tools are lacking for a long time, which means that the officials here don't care about this matter at all, and it even means that the local officials may not care about the inconvenience of the people's production and life at all, and they don't care about the lives of the people. …

   Similar to this.

   Fei Qian nodded, and then said: "Not only that... Where did the new method of farmland fertilization come from?" Chang'an. Who did the tool improvement? Chang'an. The new method of distance between Zhuanghe and Chang'an... don't ask, don't tell, if you ask, then learn, Chang'an...』

  Pang Tong laughed, "So the rumors spread in Shandong can't be passed on!" Those guys said how vicious and cruel we are, how we bully the people... At first the people were terrified, but when they heard it later, it was... completely different! No matter how much you make it up, you won't be able to make it up anymore! 』

  『Ha, that's it. Fei Qian also chuckled lightly, "So there is a saying that facts speak louder than words." If you follow the rumours, you will be exhausted to death! And the most important thing is that the Shandong officials... the officials and the nobles, and the common people have begun to doubt each other... This is the method of fighting without bloodshed...』

Officials in Shandong proclaimed all day how miserable Guanzhong Sanfu was, how the people in Guanzhong lived in dire straits, how they were bullied and oppressed, of course the people believed it at the beginning, but after a long time, these people found out, well, it seems not Such a thing is completely different from what the officials said!

  Officials don't take being exposed as a lie, because they are used to lying, so what are they afraid of being exposed by this one lie, and the next lie!

  But the people's trust in the officials is declining a little bit.

  As for the gentry in Shandong, local officials control the area and control the place. What is the key point that cannot be easily replaced? Isn't it the community where the local gentry, rich and powerful families have been integrated with the common people for a long time? If you want to clean it up, you're just throwing a rat's finger at it. If something goes wrong, pulling up the radish will bring up a large piece of mud. Some local gentry even use their network of several generations, or even more than a dozen generations, to control the place and hold the government hostage. , And then threaten the court.

   And now, those connections, the roots of this place, are rotting.

   What accelerates this decay is actually the loss of mutual "trust".

In fact, these local officials are powerful, and they did not become corrupt after Fei Qian, nor did they become greedy under Cao Cao, but from the very beginning. However, these officials and gentry have always had a protective film. The rotten place will not emit breath, and ordinary people still think that these officials and squires are sunny masters and local rich people.

  At that time, the common people still listened to what these officials and lords wrapped in protective film said.

Now…

  Then, is it because the common people are getting more and more difficult to manage and become "troublemakers", or is there some other reason?

  Pang Tong nodded and said: "This time, in the plan reported by Secretary Wen, he also took the opportunity to act... Oh, I see..."

"right. Prime Minister Cao took advantage of this..." Fei Qian nodded and said, "We are doing it, and Prime Minister Cao followed suit! You said that Prime Minister Cao discovered this problem, or... happened to catch up with this matter? Actually, this thing... I did it a long time ago...」

   Feiqian gestured to the north direction, "Southern Huns. 』

  Pang Tong was stunned, and immediately fell into deep thought.

  Divorce, there are many ways.

   Those who say bad things behind their backs are like the most inferior way of spreading rumors in Shandong. Although being simple and rude has quick results, it is too easy to be exposed. Once exposed, the mentality of being deceived and being played like a monkey will be reversed, and on the contrary, it will promote a "compensation" mentality.

  Fei Qian took advantage of this to destroy the natural connection between the local gentry and ordinary people. This method was not only carried out in Guanzhong, but also in Shandong and many other places.

   Such as the Southern Huns.

   This is the first step.

  The second step is like buying the old wizards of the Southern Huns, buying some local people who are not in power but have some status. These people have been stuck in the middle and have been stuck for a long time, and they will have some resentment to some extent, so they are the easiest to be bribed.

These people may not leave their original places, and they may not be promoted immediately, but they can exchange for themselves or their next generation's "happy life" through their own influence, just like the old wizard of the Southern Huns His grandson lives happily in Chang'an...

  The third step is to expand and recruit a group of people, especially young people. Those who are older, either have a family, or have clearly recognized the cannibalistic nature of the world, have resisted and fought, and have been hit by being hit, so generally speaking, they are not easy to be incited, but young people are different. Still have innocence and fantasies about the world, yearn for their own growth, have just escaped from the protection of their parents, or have never experienced wind and rain at all, so they feel that they are strong and powerful in everything, and look down on their parents' "weakness". And those who can't bear the slightest "grievance" are the best group of people to encourage.

  It’s like Feiqian was in the Southern Huns at that time, and gathered a large number of Southern Huns teenagers, not only learning Chinese, wearing Han clothes, even the toys are Han people, thinking that everything is the best of the Han people...

When Fei Qian was about to count the property of the Southern Huns, these youngsters of the Southern Huns scrambled to give the clearest figures, including the few hairs on Yufulo’s buttocks under the curtain, because at that time in these Southern Huns In the hearts of young Huns, Chang'an is the best, and the southern Xiongnu represents filth, poverty and backwardness. If you can exchange this information for a hope of going to Chang'an, why not do it?

   The fourth step and the third step, Fei Qian didn’t make a clear distinction at the time, but they were roughly the same, which was to support or borrow a leader who opposed Fu Luo.

  At that time, Huchuquan and Yu Fuluo also had disagreements and gaps...

  The rest of the matter is naturally a matter of course.

  Southern Xiongnu civil strife.

   Countless casualties.

But the important thing is not the death of people and livestock, but after that civil strife, the Southern Huns completely lost their energy. The beliefs and trust in the Southern Huns disappeared, and even the tribal leaders The natural bonds between man and tribal people were also broken.

In the end, even if Yu Fuluo knew the problem, he was helpless, and the next generation he tried his best to cultivate was just fighting with the next generation who were pro-Han and fighting among the Southern Huns. Not surprisingly, the more such fighting and fighting, the more difficult it is for the Southern Huns to gather together, and eventually their forces became more and more dispersed. Even if Fei Qian did not divide the Southern Huns into five divisions like Cao Cao did in history, it was still the same. This made the Southern Huns weaker and weaker, and eventually they could only fall apart and cease to exist.

   Pang Tong knew all of this.

  And the second infighting of the Southern Huns is almost a certainty...

"This is why a certain has been reluctant to come to Shandong..." Fei Qian said slowly, "The former Qin used Wu to conquer Shandong, but failed to win it. In the early Han Dynasty, it used Guanzhong to conquer Shandong, and it was also able to conquer it. Therefore, Guangwu reformed Luoyang, the capital, also failed to reconcile Shandong and Shanxi...』

  It’s like Zhuge Liang’s concern for Boss Cao’s life, the Northern Expedition, the Northern Expedition, on the one hand, may be because of the need to fulfill Liu Bei’s last wish, and on the other hand, he can also avenge himself, and the rest may still have some personal vendettas from the family’s ruin...

  Of course, this is just Fei Qian's personal guess.

   But it could also be true.

Even in later generations, the estrangement of various places is still a very difficult thing. From time to time, some people will openly abandon a unified name intentionally or unintentionally, and publicize that I represent so-and-so, and you are so-and-so, how so Same…

  So, among the natural or unnatural gaps in various places, how much is left over from history, and how much is added intentionally or unintentionally by subsequent people?

  China is a huge country and a multi-ethnic territory. It is too easy to find some old and new hatreds in it.

  Pang Tong nodded and said: "So we waited for them to make a fuss...just like the Southern Huns..."

   Fei Qian said: "It's a pity, this time, Prime Minister Cao moved too fast... Or, he got stuck on this line just right... If a few more days pass, Jizhou will also become noisy..."

  『Hmmm…』Pang Tong nodded slightly, 『Indeed. Now under the thunder in Yingchuan, most of the people in Jizhou will not dare to act rashly...』

Because after Cao Cao became the prime minister, he adopted a strategy of giving sweets and scattered resettlement to some people in Jizhou, which made it more difficult for the people who wanted to close Jizhou again. This article can be seen thousands of miles away, and can also be commanded remotely by the way.

  『Let the Youwen Division send a message, Jizhou...stop for a while...' Fei Qian said, 'If the Jizhou people themselves don’t move, it will be too obvious for our people to move...』

  Pang Tong nodded and said, "Follow the order." 』

   Fei Qian laughed and said, "Don't worry about Derun, there will be opportunities in the future!" 』

  Pang Tong smiled and agreed.

Previously, there was news that the Division wanted to push between Jizhou and Yuzhou to cause some troubles for Mr. Cao, but unfortunately, not everything went as planned. Before Jizhou was completely instigated, Mr. Cao started in Yuzhou , directly ignited the problem in Yingchuan, and then completely extinguished it with a thunderbolt... Well, it’s not completely, it’s just cutting off the most serious lesion regardless of whether it’s good or bad.

Because the hidden danger has not been eliminated, Lao Cao still does not have enough probes. His position is too high, even higher than Fei Qian. It is very difficult to know the situation at the grassroots level after so many layers. .

Fei Qian would often secretly go to the Sanfu area of ​​Guanzhong, and Lao Cao was basically in Xu County and Yecheng, rarely going to the countryside, at most staying in the camp of Cao Jun, Perhaps Mr. Cao himself didn't realize that he was getting farther and farther away from the bottom.

  So Mr. Cao wants to make some changes, but he doesn’t know what is the most appropriate way to do it. Killing people is very simple, but it’s still far from having real effects on the people who kill them.

  The officials of the Han Dynasty are life-long officials. As long as conditions permit, they can be officials for a lifetime.

  But the gap between Shandong and Shanxi is constantly widening.

Over the years, Fei Qian has opened up the overall promotion channel from civilians to officials, from officials to officials, and from local officials to the central government. For the officialdom monopolized by the powerful, this is already a huge breakthrough.

Moreover, under Fei Qian's command, the welfare of officials is also very high. Just an ordinary petty official is enough to make a family live comfortably. Gradually cultivate a positive incentive system in which the more you pay, the more you do. The more you do, the better, and naturally the more you pay.

In terms of the bureaucracy system, it is still impossible to say that everything is going well, and there are still problems of one kind or another, but it can be said that the set of strategies implemented by Fei Qian is more advanced than that of Lao Cao, don’t you know? How much, at least it has been promoted and used in later generations. In later generations, the positive salary system is not only used in officialdom, but also in enterprises, and even in marginal rural areas and small workshops. It is a very versatile method, and it can naturally Applicable to the big man at the moment.

  Of course, among these systems, the most important thing is still the standards and the people who implement them.

  If the theory of Qinglong Temple promoted by Fei Qian is also to occupy the high ground of the standard, it is better to say that Fei Qian wants to acquire those people who can come together with him in this process!

  How can everything go well in the world?

   This time, the action of backtracking old classmate Cao came to an end for the time being, but what Fei Qian didn't expect was that in the Qinglong Temple, there was an unexpected big wave!
