There was a lot of discussion in the Jincheng court, and all the princes felt that they should sever ties with Soochow in order to demonstrate justice.
Adou, who was sitting on the throne, was also a little wavering.
In the past few years, while the Han Dynasty was recuperating, it also put down the rebellion in the south.
Compared with when he first came to the throne, the country's power has become stronger and stronger. Although the people's corvee labor is a bit too many, every household can have enough to eat all year round and no longer need to go hungry.
In today's world, the people do not have to go hungry, and the government can be fair and honest, and act in accordance with the law, so that the wealthy families do not dare to take plunder at will. Where else can there be except the big man?
Not to mention that Hanzhong and Yue also opened special schools so that children from Cangtou, Guizhou Province, could also have the opportunity to attend school.
Just to talk about this matter, this is something that will only happen if the Mingjun Holy Lord is alive and culture and education are prosperous.
Therefore, the common people of the Han Dynasty rarely complain.
Coupled with the great victory at Longyou, it greatly inspired the hearts of the Han scholars and the people.
In this case, the statement "With the strength of a big man, it may not be possible to beg thieves, so why beg from Soochow" does make many people think it is reasonable.
In this kind of discussion atmosphere, even the honest boy Adou is a little arrogant: all the gentlemen are saying this, I guess they are not wrong.
Ming Jun Holy Master, you really need to pay attention to the opinions of everyone.
Of course, the most important thing is to listen to your father’s opinion.
It's just that for such a big matter, the prime minister is far away in Hanzhong, so at this time, we can only let the princes of the court discuss it first.
Then the results of the court meeting were sent to Hanzhong for the Prime Minister to review, so that the Prime Minister could also know what the opinions of the princes in the court were.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, a person who no one expected stood up and published a book "Refuting Duanjue and Wu Mengyueshu".
"The speaker today said that Sun Quan was determined to stay at the foot of the tripod and did not want to advance north. This statement is specious and false, but it is actually deceiving Your Majesty. Why?
Soochow Wu did not want to advance northward, but it was actually because of its lack of intelligence, so it relied on Jiang to protect itself. In the past, Sun Quan took advantage of the victory at Chibi and attacked Hefei from the north but failed.
In the 20th year of Jian'an, after Sun Quan negotiated with the late emperor to divide Jingzhou peacefully, he personally led an army to attack Hefei, but was defeated by Wei general Zhang Liao with 800 cavalry.
In the fourth year of Jianxing, Cao Pi, the leader of the bandits, died. Sun Quan took the opportunity to lead his army to attack Jiangxia, but failed and returned without success. Therefore, the so-called crossing of the river due to lack of intelligence does not mean that one does not want to go to the north bank.
In the past, the first emperor wanted to reject Cao Cao's thieves in the north, and wanted to swallow Sun Quan in the east. In the end, he hated Yong'an. The shame of Yiling is still vivid in my mind.
How do your majesty's literary talents and military strategies compare with those of the late emperor? Now, can the civil and military officials of the Han Dynasty serve as advisors and generals under the late emperor?
If not, how can we say that it is good to cut off the relationship between Han and Wu? Therefore, I believe that it is not appropriate to expose Sun Quan's crime of arrogance at this time. "
After finishing reading, Adou was shocked. It was like a basin of cold water was poured on his head. His mind, which had just been swollen, suddenly cooled down.
Think about how talented the late emperor was, and how many advisers and brave generals he had. He still had the hatred of Yong'an, how could he return to himself?
Just seeing the name of the owner of this memorial, Adou couldn't help but frown: "Li Ping?"
Li Ping, the former governor of Jiangzhou and the Central Protector-General who nominally unified the Chinese and foreign military forces, finally returned to Jincheng, changed his name to Li Ping, and wrote a memorial to oppose the alliance proposed by most people to eliminate Wu.
As soon as Li Ping sent this memorial, it immediately attracted everyone's attention.
The Dukes of Gungun in the DPRK may not be ignorant of the disadvantages of severing the alliance with Soochow.
But political correctness is always correct, and the correct line may not always be correct.
Anyway, it is absolutely politically correct to shout against Soochow's proclaimed emperor, not to mention that the line may be correct?
So how everyone chooses is just natural. Didn't you see that the Prime Minister's Mansion Chief Shi and Join the Army didn't say anything?
Li Ping, on the other hand, dared to be the first to say such words, which was really eye-catching.
Someone only heard a sneer: "If Sun Quan becomes emperor and the Han Dynasty reprimands him for trespassing, wouldn't the Zhongdu Hu stay in Jiangzhou to supervise the military to prevent Soochow from moving west?"
Anyway, it is not a secret that the prime minister wants to abolish the governor of Jiangzhou, but Li Ping has been delaying staying in Jiangzhou, so this has been delayed.
This approach naturally made many people in the DPRK angry.
Coupled with their trust in the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, there are many people who believe that Li Ping has lost power. Some people make sarcastic remarks, which is most normal.
Li Ping looked at the people sitting there and said calmly: "Do you want to argue with a certain court?"
As the Central Protector, he had been the Han Dynasty's second auxiliary minister before he fell. Even the emperor had to treat him with courtesy.
Xu Ci sat in his original position and stood up, "Why not? In the past, when the general attacked Xiangfan, Wanluo was shaken, and Cao Cao was almost tempted to move the capital. If Sun Quan was determined to go north, why would he attack Jingzhou from behind?"
This question made Li Ping, who was trying to put on a pretense, almost lose his temper and wanted to beat the old man to death on the spot.
What kind of question do you want me to answer to you?
Do you want me to say that there is something wrong with Guan Yu?
So he flicked his sleeves, raised his head and looked up, deliberately not looking at Xu Ci: "The loss of Jingzhou has been concluded for a long time. What did the gentlemen say back then? Do you want to point it out one by one?"
He saluted Adou, who was sitting at the top: "Your Majesty, you know that I have sinned against you, but the world can learn from your spring and autumn, a certain public spirit."
There was a slight roar of laughter in the hall.
Li Ping dares to say that he has a public heart?
At that time, he was appointed as the prefect of Qianwei, and he was able to force Yueqi Xiaowei (Yang Hong) to withdraw.
After becoming the governor of Jiangzhou, he forced Wang Chong, the Yamen general, to surrender to the Wei people, and also leaked the Han's Quyuan plow to the Wei state.
Not to mention what he has done in the past two years, if he is truly public-minded, then who is the Yueqi Xiaowei who is loyal to the Qing Dynasty and cares about his family as much as his family?
This roar of laughter made Li Ping's face look extremely ugly.
He thinks very highly of himself, and even if his status is equal to his own, he rarely communicates with him. Only the prime minister can write to him.
Now that he was in danger of losing power, he had to endure such humiliation. His chest was heaving and he was extremely angry.
He felt a rush of blood rushing to his forehead, and was about to rebuke loudly.
At this time, it was Yang Hong who stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I believe that Sun Quan's arrogance of proclaiming himself emperor is a treason."
"But even if the Han Dynasty pacifies Longyou now, it will only have the land of four counties, which is only a drop in the bucket compared to the land of Cao Cao's ten states."
"If we are to annihilate the alliance of Soochow, we can use the four counties and one state of the Han Dynasty to fight against the twelve states of Wu, the thief of Cao Cao. Therefore, I believe that what the Zhongduhu said is indeed reasonable."
Yang Hong stood up to support Li Ping, which was beyond everyone's expectation.
Adou respected Yang Hong. During his father-in-law's Northern Expedition, Li Ping had some changes in Jiangzhou. It was Yang Hong who was seriously ill and gave advice to Adou, which made him feel at ease.
If it were someone else who agreed with Li Ping, Adou would have suspected there was some collusion.
But Yang Hong agrees with Li Ping's words, which means that Li Ping's words do have some truth.
…
People in the Xinghan Society were relieved to learn that Li Ping, the Central Protector, was the first to stand up against the alliance with Wu Jue.
Even if they don't have to go to court, they also know that it is possible to talk about breaking an alliance with Wu, but it is not easy to actually do it.
As those who contributed a lot during the Northern Expedition, they clearly knew how difficult it was to supply food and grass to the Northern Expedition army last year.
Just the Yunnan horses used by Dongfeng Express suffered a lot of losses last year.
If Yunnan horses didn't grow very fast, they could start carrying most of the horse's weight in one and a half years, and new horses produced in the pastures might not be able to fill the gap.
In addition, the Yi people in Hanjia County in the north of Vietnam have many Qiang and Di tribes who raise horses, so Dongfeng express transportation can be kept smooth.
Therefore, everyone in the Xinghan Hui finally understood what Li Yi said that day.
In the seventh year of Jianxing, Li Ping responded to the imperial court's order and returned to Jincheng to take charge of the affairs of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
At the same time, due to the movement of Cao's bandits in Guanzhong in the north, Li Feng led 20,000 Jiangzhou troops north to support Hanzhong.
At the same time, Xiang Chong was appointed as the governor of Bajun and governed Jiangzhou.
Chen was appointed as the governor of Yong'an and the prefect of Badong to govern Yong'an.
The sudden movements of Cao's thieves in Guanzhong forced even the Jiangzhou soldiers to go north, suppressing the voice of the alliance against Dongwu.
The Prime Minister's mobilization of Han troops has already vaguely expressed an attitude.
Sure enough, the memorial from the Hanzhong Prime Minister's Mansion was quickly delivered to Jincheng.
Not only did Li agree with Li Ping's statement, he also pointed out:
If you break the Soochow alliance, you will become enemies with Soochow. At that time, the Han Dynasty will definitely increase its troops to the south to confront Soochow. This will only allow the Northern thieves to get their hands on the plan and is not a wise choice.
The two auxiliary ministers of the Han Dynasty had an extremely rare agreement and finally overwhelmed all objections.
The dramatic reversal caught people off guard.
Although this change is like seeing flowers in the smoke and is very unpredictable, Li Ping handed over the military power in his hands, indicating that the dispute between the two auxiliary ministers has finally come to an end.
The results were expected, but also somewhat unexpected.
Li Feng led 20,000 Jiangzhou troops to reinforce Hanzhong, which greatly enhanced the military power that the Prime Minister's Office in Hanzhong could mobilize.
Because some of the 20,000 Jiangzhou soldiers were handed over to Li Ping by the late emperor before his death, they were rare elite soldiers.
Zhuge Liang, the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, transferred Li Feng to the Prime Minister's Mansion as military counselor.
The turmoil in Shu did not affect Feng Yong.
In Longyou in June, there was no large-scale locust plague that Xu Erniang was worried about.
The Hu people believe in the God of Heaven, the God of Mountains, and the God of Sheep, but they do not seem to believe in the God of Locusts.
Colonel Feng gave an order, not only to irrigate the ground with more water before the locusts came out, but also to cull the locusts after they came out before they could fly.
Duan Muzhe, the dog manager, transferred many good dogs from Nanxiang and opened a dog farm in Pingxiang to guard the chickens and ducks day and night.
Li Tong took the people assigned to him to hatch and breed the chickens and ducks that had been raised for half a year, so that he could freely raise them all over the mountains and plains.
Although a lot of them were taken away by wild foxes, weasels and the like, and there was a lot of losses, it was worth it as long as the signs of the locust plague could be stopped.
The advantages of grassroots officials using school students and Nanxiang soldiers from Nanxiang are shown.
The execution ability is extremely high. Once the official document is issued, coupled with the inspection team sent to the local area, everyone in the Hu people's land under the jurisdiction of the Qiang Colonel is moved.
If you don’t want your grassland to be gnawed away by locusts this year, just do what the government says!
If you don’t want to starve to death when the White Disaster comes this year, just do what the government says!
It makes no sense to get whipped if you don't do it.
Anyway, Feng Junhou is the descendant of the mountain god, so his words must be right.
Compared with the rule of the Colonel Huqiang, under the rule of the Longyou Dudufu, a small area of locust plague occurred.
Although Feng Yong has reminded this matter, some things cannot be avoided if you know they will happen.
Doubts, slow efficiency, even resistance from local elders, and so on.
It would be great to cull locusts when they appear, but do you want to control them before they appear?
Thinking too much.
Who would believe that there is no trace?
Even if you believe it, you don’t need money or food to do this kind of thing?
Who will pay for this money and food?
Therefore, it is inevitable for the locust plague to appear.
This Longyou is not big or small.
Now Mr. Zhao led the army to inspect Xiaoguan. Feng Yong received Deng Zhi's request for help, so he sent Li Tong and people from the breeding farm to drive a group of chickens and ducks there.
In fact, these are small things.
The real big event was the battle between the Han Dynasty and the Cao bandits in Guanzhong for the pass in Hanzhong and Longyou.
Wei Yan led his army along Chencang Road, exited Dashan Pass, and saw Chencang who was waiting in full formation.
Chencang City is small and strong, blocking the exit of Chencang Road, and the terrain is narrow, making it difficult to attack the city.
In addition, Cao Zhen knew that the Xiegu Road was impassable. If the Han Dynasty wanted to leave the Pass from Hanzhong, they would have to go through Chencang. Therefore, since the Battle of Longyou, he had vigorously built the city.
Although the prime minister just asked Wei Yan to test it out, there was no need to actually attack the city.
However, Wei Yan was eager to achieve success. He originally planned to attack Chen Cang if he was really unprepared, so as to scare Cao's thieves.
Unexpectedly, after attacking several times, they all retreated without success.
Coupled with the fact that Zhuge Qiao, who had joined the army, was advising him, Wei Yan had no choice but to grit his teeth and retreat bitterly.
When the Han army appeared at Chencang City, Cao Zhen, who was guarding Chang'an, was shocked and personally led his army to reinforce.
At the same time, I heard that the opponent was led by the Han general Wei Yan, and I was still lucky. If there was a chance to intercept this Han army, I would be able to wash away the shame of last year.
Unexpectedly, Wei Yan retreated just as quickly as he came. Cao Zhen couldn't help but pause and sigh: "How timid the Shu captives are!"
The news of Wei Yan's defeat at Chencang reached Feng Yong, which made the broad-minded Feng Junhou gloat: "This old man Wei, how could you embarrass me back then!"
When Guan Ji on the opposite side heard what he said, she threw a card: "Touch!"
Then she rolled her eyes at him and said, "Alang is now a prince after all. In terms of position, he is not inferior to General Wei. He should work together to destroy the thieves. If someone had listened to what he said just now, I'm afraid he would have said Alang is narrow-minded."
It was Zhang Xingyi's turn to draw the card. His big eyes narrowed, and it seemed that he had picked up a good card.
Then throw out a second barrel.
Feng Yong made a "tsk" sound and glanced at her angrily.
Zhang Xingyi held her head high, with a proud smile, and the expression on her face seemed to say, "What are you looking at? I just won't let you eat!"
"There is a saying in my school," Feng Yong hummed. "The right way is not to bully a young man who is poor. Twenty years to the east of the river, twenty years to the west of the river. When he bullied me back then, did he ever think of today?"
If he could talk to him properly and build a good relationship back then, who knows, he would still have an engineering battalion belonging to the Qiang Xiaowei Mansion on his hands now.
Amei picked up a card carefully, looked at Feng Yong first, then at Guan Ji, and hesitated.
"Hurry up."
Zhang Xingyi was anxious, and it was obvious that she was almost confused.
Amei's hand trembled and she threw out a card.
"Confused!"
Guan Ji quickly caught him.
Feng Yong and Zhang Xingyi both glared at Amei: "How many are these?"
This girl definitely made her mistress comfortable by feeding her on purpose!
What an amazing brain?
