Ancestor Bless: I built a thousand-year-old family

Chapter 133 Wei Yang
The attitude of the current Luo State Office to Qi State is very complicated. The Ji-Jiang Alliance formed by Qi Luo and Luo State has protected Bangzhou through hundreds of years of ups and downs.

How important is a solid alliance?
In the previous Ji Jiang alliance, for the sake of mutual friendship, they even gave up the short-term benefits they obtained. The political trust between the two parties was extremely high, which was completely different from the current alliance among the nations that betrayed at every turn.

But now the Qi State has drifted away from the Zhou Dynasty, because although the Jiang surname Lu is still the monarch and has great influence, the real power that can affect the Qi State's national policy is not in the hands of the public office.

The Ji-Jiang Alliance did not break up, but simply disappeared.

The Wei State initiated the reform, and its power quickly became stronger. It defeated the Qin State in the west and the Chu State in the south, and then woke up all the vassal states in the world. It turns out that the reform is so important. With the reform of other countries, Wei State The advantages of the system are gradually disappearing.

But relying on Wei Wuzu, Wei State is still very tyrannical, and then just like weakening Chu State before, the three kingdoms of Qi, Qin and Chu unanimously chose to weaken Wei State.

But Wei Guo had the Three-Jin Alliance before, and it was not easy to do it. Now Wei Guo has dismantled the Three-Jin Alliance by himself, which is simply suicidal.

The most excited state is Qin State. Qin State is the weakest reformer in recent years. Because Qin State is too remote, it attracts the fewest talents. Most of the talents go to Qi State, South Korea and Zhao State. of.

Although the wars between Qin State and Wei State in these years were not as miserable as those fought during Wei Houqing's period, they were still difficult. Then Qin State learned from the pain and decided to carry out a thorough reform to change the current situation.

Wei Yang, a man of destiny who is favored by the rise of the Qin Kingdom, surveyed the world in the Luoguo Academy, and finally fell in love with the Qin Kingdom, a piece of white paper land, which is the battlefield where he gallops freely.

Then Wei Yang entered Qin and told Uncle Qin his plan to strengthen the country, starting from the most fundamental political system change, to the difference between agriculture and business, to military reform, to the organizational form of the most grassroots common people in Qin State, one by one. , the former Wei State reform was taken as the foundation, and then it was strengthened to the point where it could not be added.

Wei Yang explained the necessity of the policy to Uncle Qin in detail: "My lord, among the Xia kingdoms, only the Luo kingdom has always been strong.

If Luo Guogong wants to dominate the world, will it be unsuccessful?

The reason for this is because the Luo State Office can completely mobilize almost all adult men in the entire Luo State, and can make these people serve their hearts to death.

Luo Guogong's practice cannot be imitated.

Therefore, they can only be recruited by force. This is the importance of registered households. It is also impossible to do one's best service. Therefore, minor crimes and heavy punishments are added to the military merit system, forcing the people of Qin to die, otherwise they will really die.

Although the process is different, the final effect is the same.

As long as the state of Qin implements these laws, it will prosper within ten years. "

First break up all the common people of the Qin state into individual people through one system after another, and then control them through severe punishments, especially the continuous sitting system, which is simply the only way to control the person.

Qin was born with a crime, and he had to serve in the military and make military exploits to be exonerated. Coupled with the military merit system, all Qin people were tied to chariots.

Wei Yang was worried that Uncle Qin thought more than ten years was too long, so he analyzed the situation in the world for Uncle Qin, "My lord, Wei is strong, so don't all the other countries worry about it except Qin?
If this was the case, Han and Zhao would not have attacked and killed Marquis Wei in the past.

Now that the three Jins are in civil strife and attacking each other, although South Korea's strength is weak, it is not vulnerable. Even if Wei can win, its strength will definitely be weakened, especially the world's elite like Wei Wuzu.

Once the loss is too much, it will not be possible to train in a short period of time. By then, will Wei Guo still have the current power?

The state of Qi is powerful and has always wanted to take back the enclave of Huaisi, so it will definitely be hostile to the state of Wei. I also ask you not to affect the relationship with the state of Qi because of the gains and losses of Huaisi.

Qin State's enclave in Huaisi is to contain Chu State and collect taxes and food, and has gained enough benefits in recent years.

If the relationship with Qi can be maintained, even abandoning it is not a big deal.

Qin State can use the land of Huai Si to guide the war between Wei State and Qi State.

The war between the two powerful countries cannot be ended in a short time. As long as Wei State devotes all its efforts to the war with Qi State, it will definitely relax its suppression of Qin State.

Qin State can buy precious time for the reform.

When the reform is completed, no matter who wins or loses between Wei State and Qi State, Wei State's strength will definitely suffer greatly, and Qin State, which has greatly increased its strength, can directly take back the land in Hexi.

Then try to seize the land in the east of the river. At that time, the Hangu Pass opened by Wan Fumo will be destroyed without attack. "

Uncle Qin was very excited, thinking that Wei Yang was a genius in the world, so he directly appointed him as Zuo Shuzhang, the actual state minister, and presided over all reform matters in Qin State.

In Luoguo Palace, Luo Ce and Luo Li had serious expressions on their faces, and even the temperature in the whole room dropped a bit. They looked at the bamboo slips in their hands, as if they were looking at a scourge.

Wei Yang's reform strategy for the Qin State had just been implemented in the Qin State, and it had already fallen into the hands of the Luo State Office.

In fact, the State of Luo has been paying attention to the reforms in other countries. The actions of these Legalists distributed in various countries are large-scale experiments.

Luo Kingdom has gained a lot of experience from the reforms of various countries in these years, but there has never been a reform that can make Luo Kingdom's palace so serious.

Luo Li said in a deep voice: "The reforms of various countries in these years, although they are all hegemonic, but like Qi's reforms, they were born out of Guanzi.

Guan Zi originally advocated strengthening the country and enriching the people, so Qi's reforms did not oppress the people of the country relatively lightly.

Wei Guo's reform had stronger control over people, but at any rate, it still left a glimmer of life, especially with Wei Houqing's death, Wei Guo's punishment gradually became looser.

The state of Qin...

I really doubt that Wei Yang, the Zuo concubine, has read the patriarch Minggong's book Domineering, too ruthless, except that he can't be killed wantonly, what is the difference between this and the slaves of the past?

You can't move at will, you are forced to serve in the military, and you are born to atone for your sins. From your teens to your 60s, you really don't treat people as human beings. "

The core of Wei Yang's reform is not the so-called military merit system. A reward system does not have so much energy to change a country.

There are only two fundamental purposes of all reforms. The first is to enhance the strength of the entire country, and the second is to enhance the strength that the country can mobilize.

The reason why the reforms of various countries can change the power balance between countries in a short period of time is because the new system allows the central government to draw more power from the country and invest it in the country's arms war.

And Qin's reform, the control of the country, has almost reached the highest peak that can be achieved in this era.

Luo Li had some doubts on his face, he was holding another letter in his hand, which was Wei Yang's words when he debated with everyone in the academy.

This is the strength of Luo Guoxue Palace. Basically, people with names and surnames in all countries have studied in Luo Guoxue Palace. Their ruling ideas and personalities can be understood from their usual words and deeds .

But Wei Yang has changed too much. "From his previous debates with everyone in the academy, he is not such a heavy-handed person among Legalists. Compared with other Legalists, he even It is rare to have some who agree with the kingly way.”

Luo Ce carefully watched Wei Yang's words and deeds, and said in a deep voice: "It is precisely because he understands the kingly way and is proficient in domineering that he can create such a law. He is really going to put the law above the monarch and above all people."

After speaking, Luo Ce pointed to one of the bamboo slips and said, "Li'er, look here.

Wei Yang said: "Confucian scholars always think that Luo has not changed for more than 800 years, but it is still prosperous, so it is not necessary to change the current system."

But what about the truth?
Luo Guo directly skipped over the nobles in the middle and showered favors on the people of the country, which was no different from the effect achieved by the reform.

Therefore, if you want to strengthen the country, you must learn from the Luo country. The more bottom people you can control, the stronger the country will be. '

You see, Wei Yang understands the kingly way of Luo Kingdom very well.

But Luo Guo cannot be replicated, so he chose to use domineering methods to achieve the same goal. "

Luo Li said coldly: "The life and death of Luo's king's way of emphasizing the people is subtle, and in the end everyone will regard the country as their home.

But Wei Yang's path is evil, everyone from nobles to common people will hate him.

Especially the common people, I am afraid that they wish for the death of the Qin State. If one day, these Qin people see the living environment of the Luo people, they may immediately turn around and destroy the Qin State.

However, in the cycle of heaven, such a radical reform by Wei Yang must not end well. The military reform of Chu State caused such a big wave, and few people who reformed have a good end.

Wei Yang almost changed the system of the entire Qin State. When this generation of monarchs passed away, Wei Yang would die, and it would be regarded as paying off the debts he had committed.

He may be the most successful disciple of Legalism, but there will be no place for him in the Temple of the Masters. "

Luo Li made no secret of his dislike for Wei Yang.

----

Drawing lessons from the reforms of Wei and Chu, Wei Yang's reforms in Qin were the most thorough and successful in the entire Warring States period, rapidly enhancing Qin's national strength and arming Qin into war. Behemoth.

However, Wei Yang's reform used the power of punishment too extreme, advocated heavy punishment for minor crimes, heavy exploitation and oppression of Qin people, resulting in the phenomenon of "the people do not know the country", and finally prospered the Qin system and buried the Qin Dynasty. —— "Warring States Reform Collection"

　Shang Yang, this person, alas, forget it, let’s not talk about it.

　　Let's talk about "Book of Shang Jun", I don't know if this thing was written by Shang Yang, anyway, you should die if you use this thing.
