Chapter 1964 Returning to Japan (round [-]) knowledge and knowledge
The Heart School headed by Zhao Zhigao is currently forced by the situation, can only bet on high pragmatism, "self-confidence", and then become arrogant and domineering.

Gao Pragmatism is not without "floating". For example, he is a little bit floating about Japan's possible response to the current situation-he believes that Japanese elites, including Tokugawa Ieyasu, are now autumn The grasshopper in his life can only give in to his pressing every step of the way, and finally hand over all his power and let him kill him.

This kind of "floating" is a kind of self-confidence based on absolute strength. He believes that after Toyotomi Hideyoshi's death, it is impossible for Japan to be twisted into a single rope. , and then completed his "Japan Plan" that had been revised several times.

But the reason why I say it is still a bit floating is because after all, he has not personally met those important people in Japan. His understanding and understanding of Japan mainly comes from his previous life's history books, literature, film and television, and even game works. Some cases are indeed based on the original historical appearance, but it is still unavoidable to be superficial.

This has led to some deviations in his previous best "predicting people like a god". There is an opportunity to take advantage of it, especially to prevent him from having the urge to directly send troops to intervene.

Of course, Tokugawa Ieyasu also miscalculated, that is, he didn't know that Gao Yushi was also making two-handed plans.That is, the plan that the imperial court is willing to send troops directly and the plan that the court is unwilling to send troops directly, under these two different plans, the things Gao Pragmatic has to do are actually different.

In short, within the scope that Jinghua can exert its power without scruples, high pragmatism is more or less floating.But Zhao Zhigao and the others don't know that when it comes to domestic political issues, Gao Pragmatic is not only never drifting, but is even unbelievably cautious.

Gao Yushi was a history buff in his previous life.There is a saying that "reading history makes people wise". The more history books you read, the more you can understand how a person should be a "good minister" under the monarchy.

Gao Pragmatism naturally has his own understanding of this.In his opinion, there are enough cases in Chinese history from all dynasties to teach him how to be a "courier", especially for a man like him who may be "a master of merit" in the eyes of many people. The situation, or the situation where the power is too great and may threaten the monarch, is not without precedent.

He believes that it can be roughly divided into four models: Xiao He model, Fan Li model, Guo Ziyi model, and Zhao Kuangyin model.

The characteristic of Xiao He's model is to recognize the identity clearly. I will do what the boss needs me to do; and I will resolutely not do what the boss does not want me to do.Don't do things that exceed your authority, but do what you are supposed to do.In addition, there is another key point, that is, if you don't like it but the boss likes it, you should obediently follow the boss's wishes.

When Liu Bang secured the throne, he was afraid that his brothers who were born and died would turn against him.Even if you don't turn against him, maybe you have to turn against his son.And the one who worried him the most was Han Xin. Liu Bang wanted to kill but couldn't bear to kill him, so he hesitated and couldn't do it.

At this time, if you want to say vicious, it has to be Empress Lu.Empress Lu saw Liu Bang's thoughts, and thought that if you don't kill him, then the old lady will do it.So Han Xin and the Yi clan were killed, and they were killed first and then played-but Xiao He helped to do it.

Originally Xiao He didn't want to, but at that time Liu Bang was old, Xiao He was afraid that his mind might not be so clear, and now that Empress Lu is so powerful, Xiao He had to give in.

As a descendant, it may be said that Xiao He was cowardly and betrayed his brother, but from the perspective of the overall situation, Xiao He was not wrong.Han Xin is indeed "peerless in the country", but he shows his sharpness. As long as Liu Bang dies, facing orphans and widows, who can guarantee that he will not rebel in the future?If he reversed, wouldn't the world be in chaos again?
As the prime minister and an old man under Liu Bang, in Xiao He's eyes, no matter how capable a courtier is, the world still has the surname Liu.Xiao He was lucky enough to escape the catastrophe just because he recognized his identity as a migrant worker and proceeded from the overall situation.

The characteristic of Fan Li's model is to accept it when it is good, and find another way out.

This gentleman is regarded as the originator of Confucian businessmen in later generations, known as "loyalty to the country, wisdom to protect oneself, business to get rich, and fame in the world." It can be said that he is an all-around talent in the migrant industry. Even Sima Qian had to admit that he succeeded in three cross-border job-hopping up.

Thanks to Fan Li, King Goujian of Yue was able to successfully destroy Wu, and he was ashamed of Kuaiji.When the Yue King's regime was consolidated, Fan Li decided to retire. He also persuaded his friend Wen Zhong to retire together, saying the famous saying of the ages that the bird is exhausted, the bow is hidden, and the rabbit is dead.

It's a pity that Wen Zhong didn't believe that the king of Yue would kill him, but who knew that it was as it should be, not long after Wen Zhong became prime minister, the king of Yue sent him the sword that Fu Chai used when he asked Wu Zixu to commit suicide. Wen Zhong had no choice but to commit suicide with the sword .But Fan Li, who retired, kept his name incognito, started to get rich personally, and became Tao Zhugong, a wealthy man, who was called "Sage of Shang" by later generations.

In fact, Fan Li's model has been a highly pragmatic choice for a long time.If there is any difference, it is probably that Fan Li made his fortune after retiring, while Gao Pragmatism walked the two paths of politics and business together, but with one foot on the left and the other on the right.

Of course, no matter what, his ultimate goal is to retire like Fan Li.However, judging from today's situation, it seems that there are still some variables to achieve this goal, but I don't know what caused this situation, whether it is a temporary change, or some fundamental change.

The two models of Xiao He and Fan Li are actually somewhat different from the actual situation of high pragmatism. The difference lies in military power, or the impact on the army.

Whether it is Xiao He or Fan Li, their influence on the army is relatively limited, let alone any direct-line army and direct-line generals.Gao Wushi is not the case. In terms of military power or influence on the army, he should actually be compared to the third model, which is the Guo Ziyi model.

What happened to Guo Ziyi was mentioned earlier in this book, so I won’t repeat it here.In short, Gao Yushi's current prestige in the army can be said to be the same for a while. General Xuan's family is almost all his direct descendants, and the direct descendants of Ji Liao and Sanbian (Shaanxi) are probably half of them. There is even Liu Ting in the Southern Army Such a mainstay.

Even the Qi family army, because of the relationship between Gao Yushi and Qi Jiguang, made him have considerable influence on many generals after the Qi family army "spread branches and leaves".

In addition, because Gao Yushi's wife Huang Zhiting was born as a chieftain, many chieftains in the Southwest regard Gao Yushi as their biggest backer in the center of the court to a certain extent.

In this battle to aid Korea, Gao Wushi was able to easily control the chieftain soldiers and horses recruited from Sichuan and other places, but did not cause various problems that were common in the past, which can also prove this relationship from the side.

Calculated in this way, among the generals of the towns on the Nine Sides, there are probably not hundreds of "little XX" among the generals in the towns, and the army they directly control or can indirectly influence may account for one-third of the Nine Sides. two or more.

How many people is that?That's at least 60 troops.

If you add the influence of Liu Ting’s Liu Jiajun on Sichuan, and the recognition of Gao Yushi by the chieftains in the southwestern provinces as their protectors, and finally add the only Qi Jiajun (the other one is the Yu Jiajun) that can fight in the south of the Yangtze River, they are also comparable to him. For the sake of ambiguity, the southern half also went for a while.

Although even with such prestige and influence, under the special national conditions of the Ming Dynasty, it does not mean that he can make these people follow him and raise the flag to rebel without hesitation, but... for the imperial power In other words, it seems that it is not too much to say "the tail is too big to lose", right?

Therefore, on the issue of military power, Gao Pragmatism's situation is very similar to Guo Ziyi's.This similarity lies in the fact that Gao Yushi's influence cannot be ignored regardless of whether he is in the position of directly managing the army.

If you compare this with future generations, it is as if there is an old leader who personally promoted you. Apart from promoting you, this old leader has also promoted countless people who are similar to you, and these people are so numerous that they are all over the world.Then one day, he said that he contacted all the disciples and old officials to plan to do something, and now everyone has agreed, and just waiting for you to express your opinion, then you... dare not agree?

In particular, don't forget that this is the feudal era, an era when human feelings can even outweigh legal principles.In this situation, not only do you dare not refuse from the consideration of strength, but also from the perspective of human relations, reputation and reputation in this human society, you may have to refuse to agree!

Ingratitude—this word is a bad name even in a society ruled by law in the new era, let alone in the old era. It is a bad name at the level of digging ancestral graves.

Why did Guo Ziyi single-handedly make Huihe retreat even though he had already resigned?Prestige only.Gao Yushi now has the same prestige as Guo Ziyi in the Ming army. Can such influence not be scary?

Zhao Zhigao was afraid, so he chose the ostrich tactic, saying that he was watching his own defeat, but in fact, why didn't he really dare not?

So... Will Zhu Yijun be afraid too?Since there were no eunuchs in the crowd who came to greet him today, should we consider this possibility?

This is the direct reason why Gao Pragmatism said just now that "the eggs are at stake".

As for the fourth mode, which is Zhao Kuangyin's mode, everyone knows this, and there is no need to explain it at all.However, Gao Yushi never considered this point since he was a child.

The reason for this has been said a lot before. Simply put, he does not want to see any civil war, does not want to see any internal chaos and disputes, and does not want the regime established by the last mainstream nation in the original history to consume its power internally and then lose. The battle of civilizations under the first direct conflict between Eastern and Western civilizations.

In the eyes of Gao Pragmatism, the interests of Chinese civilization are far greater than all his personal interests. This is his unswerving view as a person who grew up under the education system of the new era.

Gao Pragmatism doesn't care about "even if there is a flood after my death" or "I don't care about the rise of great powers, but only about the dignity of ordinary people".Without the rise of the nation, without the strength of the country, ghosts care about this little man!

So many small countries are guilty of committing crimes, and they are beaten by a big country with a test tube of washing powder. The country that was thriving has been turned into ruins, and the people who live and work in peace and contentment have become refugees. At this time, do you have the dignity of a fart?
They just get a sentence: "They lost everything, but they got freedom."

What is the use of such freedom when you can only beg for charity from others to feed your dog?

Without a prosperous and strong country, there will be no self-respecting and confident people.The world has always been like this and always will be like this.

Therefore, there is no Zhao Kuangyin model in the high-practical choice, because he believes that the Ming Dynasty never had the social foundation for an almost peaceful transfer of state power like Zhao Kuangyin and Chen Qiao's mutiny.

The reason why Zhu Di was able to succeed in the Jingnan change was that at the social level he was also surnamed Zhu and was Zhu Yuanzhang’s own son, so he also had a certain legitimacy in jurisprudence to succeed to the throne; at the level of the court system, objectively speaking, Zhu Yunqi was gone, and the “National You can’t be without a king for a day”; on the military level, he was able to break into Nanjing with a single army, and the other kings were scared, and no one dared to jump with him.

These three levels are indispensable for the success of Jing Nan Zhi Bian, and if the high-practical assumption is really to be reproduced, at most the third point can only be reproduced, but that is not enough at all, and the follow-up will definitely be chaos in the world.

No matter how quickly he calms down, it will be an incalculable sunk cost for the country, not to mention that it will bring about a permanent Debuff that will inevitably run through the entire dynasty.

Therefore, Gao Pragmatic has always hoped to adopt Fan Li's model and Guo Ziyi's model comprehensively, which makes him always adhere to the style of "doing things high-key and being a low-key person", doing what should be done with great fanfare and candidly.

Even for a seemingly sensitive matter such as the military industry reform back then, he first suggested to Gao Gong, and then publicly appealed for it himself, and extensively recruited parties with similar interests to work together, and finally it was finally done.He would clearly analyze the advantages and disadvantages to Zhu Yijun, who was still the prince at the time, and let Zhu Yijun pass it on to Emperor Longqing, and finally came to a "sacred judgment".

At the same time, he is highly pragmatic and strictly abides by various etiquette and morality, and never engages in any "overstepping the rules".Even when the Rixin Building was being built in his mansion, because "there was no such system in ancient times", he personally went to discuss with the emperor such things as the height of the building and the presence of spineless animals, and started construction only after obtaining the emperor's permission , which shows his caution.

His return to Beijing this time had already been discussed beforehand. It was not a triumphant return to Beijing as an army, but just a report on his duties.Since it was just a debriefing, there shouldn't have been a scene of "a hundred officials greet each other outside the city", but now not only the hundreds of officials greeted each other inexplicably, but also the ceremonial supervisor was still absent, which naturally caused immediate arousal. High pragmatic vigilance.

For a moment, he thought of several possibilities.Either the "hundreds of officials greet each other" happened suddenly, and the supervisor of ceremonies—or simply said that the emperor had no time to respond; Past.

It seems that the second possibility means that the situation is more serious-ah, and of course it is.However, Gao Yushi believes that the first possibility cannot be ignored, because it means...someone is deliberately setting a trap for him!
Seeing Liu Ting and Dong Yiyuan who were stunned, Gao Wushi shook his head slightly, and said, "I'm afraid someone is trying to drive a wedge between the emperor and me...Okay, okay, don't be dazed, follow me to see this national champion." How about Yili?"

PS: One thing is confirmed. On the 28th, my wife is going to take an exam for a new subject.My family lives in the southeast of the city, and she has to go to the northwest of the city to take the test, so I probably have to pick her up the whole way, and I guess I have to wait outside the test center all the time.Therefore, the update time on the 28th should be relatively late, and there is a high probability that it will be released after the early morning or the next morning...Report in advance to let readers know.
