Dajin picked up a god of war

Chapter 1022 Some Time Limitations

The children of nobles in this era neither like hunting nor entertaining, and the most popular leisure item is to sit and talk.

There is no need to waste physical strength, let alone how strong the body is.

It's five stones per capita, and if the hobby is this kind of thing, don't expect them to be martial arts. How is that possible? It's too laborious.

Therefore, in such a social atmosphere, Wang Mi was able to get rid of the inherent impression, stepped on the horse, and rushed to the battlefield, which was regarded as a leap forward.

It can be said that he was able to cheer up the Beifu soldiers in a short period of time, and won several big victories, which is enough to prove his strength.

There is still something lacking in civil servants.

This also has time constraints.

After the collapse of society at the end of the Sui Dynasty and the collapse of the Sui Dynasty, many scholars lost their places to work. Therefore, these scholars who were forced to lose their jobs had to find new jobs by themselves. After all, life must continue, right?

So, some of them defected to Dou Jiande, and some of them came to Tang Jun's command.

It is said that heroes come out of troubled times. Among these people who take the initiative to defect, naturally there are many mediocre talents who are not useful at all, but naturally there are also many truly capable people among them.

But whether these capable people can be excavated and put to practical use depends on the vision of the coach.

It's as if Li Shimin later became the emperor's boast. He believed that, as a monarch, the most important thing is to be good at controlling people.

Of course, Li Shimin's implication must be to control capable people, not mediocre people.

Therefore, the entire end of the Sui Dynasty was a time when capable people came out in large numbers, and at that time, not only pure scholars had to go around to make a living, but even local tyrants like Xu Shiji often did not take the usual path.

He funded Wagang Village, and defected to the Tang Army.

However, as a well-known wealthy family in a certain place, in fact, as long as he can preserve himself in the troubled times, it is enough for him, there is no need to go to this muddy water at all.

However, the chaotic era often inspired people's fighting spirit, so these powerful families with some backgrounds also served in the major armies, which was another quite powerful force.

Ever since, it can be seen that at the end of the Sui Dynasty, the talent pool in the entire land of Middle-earth was still very rich.

In a blink of an eye, let us turn our attention back to the last years of the Jin Dynasty.

See how many cards Langya King has in his hand.

No way, there are really not many.

In this era, although people's social life is extremely rich and colorful, there are relatively few disciplines and dogmas in society, and everyone pursues freedom, forming a kind of atmosphere.

However, as one of the very few times in the past dynasties, who especially admired various Taoist theories of inaction, there was another characteristic of the people at the end of Jin Dynasty that seriously hindered the collection of talents by King Langya.

That is to have no aggressiveness and to be self-motivated.

In fact, in ancient times, many dynasties did not particularly respect one source of Taoism, because the Taoist theory was not good for them to establish a court and control the insightful people of an era.

Only when everyone pursues fame and fortune, those talented and capable talents can more easily enter the court's field of vision.

Especially in the last years of the Jin Dynasty, when there was no imperial examination system, many of the so-called talents had to have a good background before they could enter the reserve team of ministers.

Those reckless heroes who descended from the sky, or famous mountain hermits, were really not easy to be discovered by the court.

However, the children of these famous families at the end of Jin Dynasty are often not enthusiastic about the most basic needs of human survival, such as being proactive in their careers and changing their own situation.

The root cause, of course, is that they don't have the need.

You see, wanting money to have money, wanting status to have status, these are all innate, and they are completely reincarnated.

At the end of the Jin Dynasty, as long as you master the reincarnation code, you can lie flat and enjoy a good life.

In such an age where status is considered high and low, and many wealth and benefits can be hereditary, as a child of a big family, you can obtain wealth that others can't match in a few lifetimes at all, so why work hard?
Where is the motivation?
There is no goal at all.

It is indeed a little difficult to find suitable candidates for civil servants among such a group of lazy and indifferent people.

Fortunately, there is Liu Muzhi.

This genius in troubled times, although his limbs are not working hard, he is indeed capable.

But now, going to Wang Mi is obviously better than going to Liu Yu in history to get real benefits faster.

Therefore, it can be seen that he is also working very hard in Beifu.

And Wang Mi will naturally give him what he deserves.

It is still very cost-effective to start the business from this era. After all, Liu Muzhi in history took care of the logistics for Liu Yu, but unfortunately fell before Liu Yu proclaimed himself emperor.

Therefore, as Liu Yu's most important behind-the-scenes think tank, Liu Muzhi basically did not enjoy much of the fruits of victory.

On the contrary, his death also caused great difficulties for Liu Yu.

Back then, Liu Yu had already led troops to conquer Chang'an, but he had to give up due to various reasons. Among these multiple reasons, there was naturally the factor that Liu Yu was also infected with the disease.

Similarly, Liu Muzhi's sudden death is also a major reason.

Without Liu Muzhi, Liu Yu's supplies cannot be guaranteed. In this way, the longer the battle line is drawn, the more worrying it will be.

On the one hand, Liu Yu was worried that the rear defense would be empty and no one would be in charge of the overall situation, so he had to give up the achievements he had already won and return to Jiankang to stabilize the situation.

On the other hand, it was also because my physical strength was gradually declining, and I was worried that if I didn't claim the title of emperor again, the career I had worked so hard for would be handed over to others.

Liu Yu lived in a different era. In front of his eyes, there were Huan Wen who died before he could achieve his great cause, and Wang Dun who died of illness halfway through the rebellion.

To be honest, in terms of their foundation in Dajin, the foundation of these two people is much better than that of Liu Yu.

They were all descendants of decent families. Although they had a powerful army in their hands, the people in the imperial court were naturally jealous of them.

After all, fundamentally speaking, they still belonged to the same camp as the civil servants in the court, just like the current Wang Mi.

As for Liu Yu, although he claimed to be a descendant of Liu Bang, he was born barefoot after all. Few of the noble princes in the court took him seriously.

Even in Beifu, which he controlled for a while, these people were not convinced, but for them, the most important thing was to protect their family's interests in Jiangzuo.

The tacit agreement reached by the family alliance is that none of us want to be emperor, but the emperor who is elected must protect our interests.

In this context, if Liu Yu is willing to be emperor, there is no need for them not to support him.

As for Liu Yu, as a grassroots military general emperor, before becoming emperor and after becoming emperor, his position must have changed.

According to his background, he should naturally dislike the aristocratic family. However, the foundation of the aristocratic family is deep and unbreakable. If he wants to secure this position, he must cooperate with the aristocratic family.

Therefore, in order to become the emperor, he could transform himself into six emperors. However, after taking the throne, Liu Yu did not kill any more. He also entrusted those ministers who looked down on him before with heavy responsibilities and continued to use them.

This is a relationship of mutual cooperation, and the maintenance of this relationship also benefits from the pattern of partition between the North and the South for more than 200 years.

It is precisely because of the inability to complete the unification of the north and the south that both the northern court and the southern court are relatively weak, and no one can conquer the other side.

Therefore, this situation of separatism can only continue to be maintained, because the whole territory cannot be unified, and various human and material resources cannot be well mobilized and integrated.

Regardless of whether it is in the north or the south, relatively speaking, the imperial court's ability to control the localities is extremely limited.

Not to mention those cities near the confrontation line between the North and South separatist regimes, which are constantly fighting. Don't think about developing business, it will simply become more and more withered.

Under such circumstances, in order to maintain half of the country, as the emperor, he naturally wanted to make as little fuss as possible and reduce the effort.

Then cooperating with the family is the easiest way to maintain it.

But, what Wang Mi has to do now is to create a new model.

Previously, his senior Wang Dun once wanted to do the same, but because of limited ability and unclear goals, the great cause failed.

And now, Wang Mi is about to make a breakthrough!

In the age when a family was the king, a child of a top family is actually going to stand up and preside over the overall situation!
He has embarked on the path of a powerful minister and regent!

Can he succeed?

Can he break with tradition?

All of this, so far, is far from settled.

It is only reasonable if there are contacts. Wang Mi transferred two generals, Liu Muzhi and Tan Pingzhi, from Jingkou, and he had to express it.

So, soon he sent someone to call He Mai.

At this time, of course, we must mobilize all the people under our hands that can be mobilized.

As soon as He Mai arrived, he immediately smiled.

"Congratulations to King Langya."

"Okay, let's get down to business."

Unable to understand He Mai's greasy smile, Wang Mi hastily interrupted him, but He Mai was quite sensible, and wanted to tease him, but since Wang Mi was not interested, forget it.

"What orders does King Langya have, but it doesn't matter."

He Mai was ready a long time ago and was waiting for Wang Mi's order.

Now that he finally got the opportunity, he was naturally excited. Seeing his eagerness to try, Wang Mi felt relieved.

OK!

This errand is best left to him.

"The current situation has changed drastically, and you can no longer stay in Jiankang. Now go back to Jingkou, succeed Mu Zhi, and manage Beifu well."

He Mai was very excited, and pointed at himself with his backhand: "You want me to replace Liu Muzhi?"

"Yeah, I thought about it, you are more suitable than Wuji. You are shrewd, tactful, and careful. Now the Beifu doesn't need to fight. All you need to do is to manage the daily accounts of the Beifu managed by Mu Zhi. There are also reserves of weapons and supplies, all of which are well managed, as well as the daily drills of the soldiers, and the recruitment of troops, all of which require you to cooperate with the slaves and implement them as soon as possible."

"Nowadays, Beifu is not only going to fight abroad, but also responsible for the defense of Jiankang City. There must be a shortage of troops. Soldiers must be recruited from all over the country and the best ones selected."

"I understand."

"Leave these things to me, and you can rest assured."

Although He Mai has not seen what Liu Muzhi is doing, he still has confidence in himself.

He also knew that Liu Muzhi, as a strange person who emerged in Jingkou, did a very good job in logistics support, and he was also smart enough to stay calm in times of crisis.

However, He Mai is not bad either.

After all, before Liu Muzhi took refuge in Beifu, when he attacked Xiangyang, He Mailai was responsible for the daily management of many accounts in the army, and he did a good job at that time.

Later, when Wang Mi returned to Jiankang, He Mai began to bond deeply with his cousin He Wuji. Where He Wuji was, He Mai would be there.

To be honest, He Mai was still a little unconvinced.

He is also capable, and he can fully act as a practical person, but why is he left idle?Of course, even if there is a little resentment in his heart, He Mai can see the current situation very clearly, and understands that now is not a good time to attack.

But now, Wang Mi was able to entrust him with this errand, which can be said to be in the arms of He Mai.

He Mai is a smart man. After a period of experience, he found that being a civil servant is more suitable than going to war.

Now that you have seen through this level, you should use your strengths as soon as possible.

"Zhiyuan, let me go to Jingkou, there is no problem at all, but I still have one thing to ask."

"Why be so polite, it's easy to say."

Such a clever person, suddenly became serious, I feel bad.

He Mai pulled his face and showed a bright smile: "I want to take my wife who lives in Lujiang to Jingkou."

wife?

Wait a minute, does He Mai still have a wife?

Judging by his state, he really couldn't tell.

"Of course it's no problem. You pick it up and ask me what to do."

"This is your family business."

"However, you haven't brought your wife with you for such a long time, how do you remember it at this time?"

Well, this is indeed a bit puzzling.

After all, when the few people met in Jingkou, He Mai had been away from home for more than half a year. At that time, he was also alone in Jingkou.

Later, he fought with Wang Mi and never had a family by his side. Although Wang Mi guessed that he probably had a wife, he had never heard of such a person from his mouth.

After drying up for such a long time, he didn't think of his wife, why did he think of it at this time.

Could it be that he was really stimulated by He Wuji?

He Mai's thoughts were very simple. He smiled calmly and said, "Of course it's because of the changes in the current situation."

"Now that you are the King of Langya, our group of young people from Jingkou naturally have to perform their duties. Originally, I planned to go back to my hometown in Lujiang to pick up my wife when the affairs of Jiankang City came to an end. Unexpectedly, the situation changed so quickly, since I was sent to Jingkou to replace Mu Zhi, it is of course a big deal."

"However, I thought, in this way, I won't have much time to go back to Lujiang, so I might as well bring my wife here now. It just so happens that Wuji's wife is still in Lujiang's hometown. This time, we can go to Jingkou together as companions." Come."

"So, very good!"
