Chapter 1869 repeat the same mistakes
Xun Yu shook his head repeatedly. "Ziyang, you think too simple. Sun Ce is not Dou Wu, He Jin, or even Liang Ji. He has no court in his heart. If he had to say that he is Wang Mang, and Wang Mang with powerful force. What can block him now is the solidity of mountains and rivers. If he lets him enter the pass, the last line of defense will be handed over. Who can still block him?"
The emperor's eyes flashed and he turned to look at Liu Ye.
Liu Ye asked back: "According to the opinion of the Lord, I will reject Mr. Zhao's advice?"
"It cannot be simply rejected." Xun Yu's head hurts a little, and he raised his hand and pinched his eyebrows lightly. On the way back to the city, he was always thinking about how to deal with it. Judging from Jiang Gan's attitude, Sun Ce's willingness to enter the court was very strong, which made him very uneasy. But after thinking about it, he couldn't find a suitable reason to refuse. Jiang Gan had a copy of Zhao Qi's memorial in his hand, and the news could not be hidden. Sun Ce was about to enter the court, but the court disagreed. The responsibility for provoking the war was on the court, and the court would lose its moral advantage.
Liu Ye was a little impatient. "What does Lingjun mean?"
Xun Yu was helpless. "Zi Yang, have you ever thought that the general wants to control military power? Sun Ce and Han Sui and Ma Teng were already very close. Once he entered the pass, how many people could obey His Majesty's command? The general is an internal court official. If he wants to replace all the people around His Majesty with his confidants, how can you deal with it? He issued an edict in the name of the court to insert his confidants into various prefectures and counties. Will Your Majesty agree or disagree?"
Xun Yu asked several questions in a row, but Liu Ye did not answer, but just listened quietly, and finally asked: "Let's say bluntly, what are you planning to do?"
"To be honest, I have no way to deal with it for the moment." Xun Yu sighed. "The enlistment of Sun Ce into the dynasty is to lead a wolf into the house, and refusal to enter the dynasty is to cut off oneself from the world, and to be in a dilemma. I can only hope that Your Majesty will not make hasty decisions and think twice before acting."
Liu Ye nodded, his tone was a little calmer, but his attitude was very firm. "It is naturally good to make the king cautious. However, as Lingjun said, Sun Ce originally had no right to be a monarch and minister, and he could not be in harmony with the court. Sun Ce was good at fighting, and Nanyang was his place of success. He had been in charge for many years. If the court went out of Wuguan to fight, he might not have a chance of victory. If he was in danger and defended, he would not have money and food in Guandong, and it would be difficult to maintain his own life. Since both the strife and the strife were not obtained, it would be better to lure Sun Ce.
When entering the court, there may be a chance to fight. The troops in Guanzhong are divided into three parts: the North and South Army, Lu Bu's Bingzhou Army, and Ma Teng's Liangzhou Army. The North and South Army are His Majesty's personal army, which is not something that Sun Ce can control. Although Lu Bu and Sun Ce had contacts, they were not close, and they could not give up military power. As for Ma Teng, even if he relies on Sun Ce, he would not be able to obey his plans. In this way, Sun Ce could only rely on his confidants, and Your Majesty could always find opportunities."
Xun Yu shook his head. "Zi Yang, you are treacherous and hopeless. If you can succeed, it is certainly good, but if Sun Ce is cautious and does not give you a chance, what will you do? And I heard that Sun Ce is brave and rarely encounters an opponent, and there are many bears of bears and tigers like Xu Chu and Dian Wei. Where can you find such a warrior to deal with him?" He turned to the emperor and gave a deep courtesy. "I beg Your Majesty to think twice."
Liu Ye also bowed to the emperor, but did not speak, and his expression disagreed with Xun Yu's suggestion.
The emperor walked back and forth with his hands behind his back. "Two lords, Sun Ce is thousands of miles away. Whether to enlist him into the court is not in a hurry, so he can slowly plan it. There is one thing that needs to be decided as soon as possible."
"Please tell me."
"It has been more than four months since the end of the Western Expedition. The rewards and pensions have not been issued yet. The soldiers have many complaints. What suggestions do you two Lingjun have?"
Xun Yu and Liu Ye looked at each other and smiled bitterly. The emperor did not fight with the Xianbei people in the plan for the Western Expedition, but just walked around Liangzhou. The court prepared some food and grass, and Han Sui raised some of them. The court then awarded rewards to the scholars of Liangzhou and Qianghu leaders, and promoted their ranks, issued a bunch of seals and ribbons, and granted many generals, but did not spend much money. However, the Xianbei people invaded the territory and His Majesty fought in person. The battle was won, but he gave extra rewards and pensions out of thin air. A large part of these rewards were given to ordinary soldiers, and they had to be tangible property. The court could not produce this money at all, and it was delayed until now.
Seeing that the two of them were helpless, the emperor said, "I also heard that the people of Liangzhou who moved to Guanzhong were bullied by the people of Guanzhong. The counties and counties guarded the people of Guanzhong have made many acts of protecting the people of Guanzhong, which has caused the people of Liangzhou to feel unfair and even attacked the temples. Is this true?"
Liu Ye nodded. "It's true, it's just..."
The emperor raised his hand and interrupted Liu Ye. "Is there a solution?"
Liu Ye was stunned for a moment and bowed, "For the time being... not yet."
"I thought about it and maybe I could solve these problems together. Guanzhong was originally a land and sea, known as the 800-mile Qinchuan, and there were many fertile land. Qin was promoted because of this. Now that the household registration was insufficient, this led the people of Liangzhou to move to Guanzhong to enrich the household registration. The conflict between the people of Liangzhou and Guanzhong was not insufficient land, but unfair distribution. Whether it is Guanzhong or Liangzhou, they are all my people, so it is not appropriate to be partial. I plan to dispatch envoys to check the land in various counties and counties, uphold justice for them, and punish officials who cannot enforce the law impartially. Do you think it is feasible?"
Xun Yu thought for a moment. "How do you plan to reward soldiers who have made meritorious service?"
"Land." said the emperor: "There are so much abandoned land in Guanzhong, why not reward the soldiers who have made meritorious service?"
Xun Yu smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, there are a lot of abandoned land in Guanzhong, but it is not a matter of time to turn those abandoned land into fertile land overnight. The people of Liangzhou are not good at farming, and even if they are distributed to them, they may not be willing to accept it."
The emperor took two steps back and forth. "Then give them good land."
Xun Yu and Liu Ye looked at each other in surprise. The emperor wanted to distribute fertile land to the people of Liangzhou, which meant taking away fertile land from the people of Guanzhong, which would trigger a greater conflict. The two almost said in unison: "Your Majesty, you must not!"
The emperor laughed silently. "Two, please don't worry, I haven't finished speaking yet."
Xun Yu and Liu Ye bowed and obeyed again. After hearing this, they already knew that the emperor was not on a whim, and that it was a premeditation. They almost thought of the Liangzhou people at the same time, and this suggestion was probably put forward by Yang Fu, Yan Wen and others.
The emperor said the suggestion mentioned by Yan Wen. In the past two days, he had considered it repeatedly and discussed it with Yang Fu and Yan Wen many times. The more he thought about it, the more he felt it was feasible. It could not only solve the current financial difficulties, but also solve the food problem for future combat. More importantly, he would have a stable source of troops, even if people escaped, and the land could not be escaped. There was so much land in Guanzhong, and it would not be a problem to support 200,000 soldiers. With 200,000 permanent sources of troops, there was no need to worry about food. What else could he have to worry about?
The emperor was very excited, but Xun Yu was frightened. When he remembered what Jiang Gan said, he felt an indescribable absurdity in his heart. In the unfortunate words of Jiang Gan, he indeed embarked on the old path of his ancestor Xun Qing and used Confucianism to teach an emperor who believed in the Legalists and practiced farming and fighting strategies.
Why is this the case?
Although he was full of disgust, Xun Yu also knew that the court had lost Guandong and cut off food and taxes, which was almost the only way to solve the difficulties. Otherwise, if Sun Ce did not attack, the court would starve to death.
Xun Yu and Liu Ye worked together to provide advice for the emperor, refine the plan, and minimize the impact as much as possible. In order to ensure that the plan is feasible, they brought Liu Ba and Yang Fu over to discuss it together.
After repeated discussions, they came up with a plan to divide the land in Guanzhong into three categories and treat it differently.
The land occupied by the Guanzhong family was basically unchanged to maintain the stability of Guanzhong. These families not only controlled the land, but also controlled the workshop. The court moved to Guanzhong, and they were also beneficiaries, and their support for the court was relatively firm, and they were also the basis for the court to gain a foothold in Guanzhong. They could not be easily shaken. But they could use this opportunity to bargain with them, so that they could provide them with more resources, and take the opportunity to clean up some people who were on both sides of the court.
The land of ordinary people who were originally from Guanzhong was redistributed, and the occupied land must be paid and distributed uniformly by the government. Ordinary people have no strength to fight against the government, and they have not moved their original interests. Although there will inevitably be someone to resist, it cannot affect the overall situation and will be calmed down soon.
Finally, the cleared land was allocated to the people and soldiers who moved from Liangzhou, including Ma Teng and Lu Bu's subordinates, and implemented the sage system. Each household was assigned land that was enough for the family to live, and did not have to pay land rent, but a part of the amount was withdrawn every year to centrally manage it. When going to war, food was extracted from these warehouses as military rations. These people served for life, and their father died and their sons succeeded. In addition to farming, they also had to train troops, practice war formations, and maintain combat effectiveness.
The scholar's family was not managed by the county and the court directly arranged people to be responsible. They lived and farmed as units of the army. They were neighbors in normal times and robes in wartime to ensure tacit cooperation between each other. The system of joint seats was implemented. If someone was afraid to fight or fled, others would be punished together until they were executed.
In addition, Yang Fu also made a suggestion: choose children who are familiar with martial arts in the royal family, and go to various places to take on the positions of school lieutenants, chief lieutenants, etc. The chief lieutenants lead thousands of households and 500 households. They usually manage the people and train troops, take turns to be responsible for the guards of Chang'an City, and serve as officers in wartime to command troops. These people are children of the Liu family, and honor and disgrace are closely related to the court, and can become barriers of the imperial court. Governing the world requires controlling the royal family to avoid future troubles. Now it is a critical autumn, and the role of the royal family in protecting the royal family should be played. So many royal families gather in Chang'an and do not assign their tasks. They do nothing, and sooner or later they will cause trouble.
The emperor happily agreed and handed over the matter to Zong Zheng Liu Chong, and personally selected some candidates.
A few days later, the plan was basically finalized and discussed during the court meeting. .
