A City of Infinite Winners in One's Life

For the infiltration of Wei State, Li Wei has been going on all the time, so Cao Cao's physical condition cannot be concealed from his eyes and ears. Judging from the news sent by the shadow, Cao Cao may not live long.Cao Cao became ill from overwork and had a headache all the time. When he fell ill, he would roll around.The Cao family recruited Hua Tuo, a famous doctor, hoping to cure Cao Cao's headache, but Cao Cao refused Hua Tuo's craniotomy. Li Wei said that Cao Cao gave up the treatment himself.

Cao Cao was suspicious by nature. He felt that Hua Tuo wanted to harm him, so he killed Hua Tuo, but what Cao Cao didn't know was that Hua Tuo was his last hope. blame others.

Sure enough, in less than three days, Cao Cao was finished before he could even make his will, and the entire Wei Kingdom was leaderless.

"Hahahaha, it's too ironic that Lao Cao died like this." Li Wei laughed so hard that he wanted to pat the table, but after laughing, his heart was empty. The so-called "Three Kingdoms" are all over. .

Li Wei looked at the handed-back, that Cao Wei's forces were already in the wind. At this critical time, he went to Cao Cao, the backbone, and his entire strength was messed up. If it weren't for this time, there would still be a foreign enemy like Li Wei. , I'm afraid that if the grass is internal, I have to pinch it first.Cao Wei's internal contradictions can be said to be many. After all, it is a force formed by various aristocratic families. It is completely dependent on Cao Cao's personal charm and means to maintain this fragile balance, but now that Cao Cao is dead, all kinds of contradictions will disappear. can continue to suppress.

Cao Wei has now decided that Cao Ang will inherit the position left by Cao Cao, but it is helpless to push Cao Ang out at this time. Most people really can't bear this mess, at least Cao Pi who is ambitious but lacks responsibility is not. Wishing (abce) to take the lead, after Cao Cao's "state funeral" simply ended, Cao Ang began to deal with the situation that had been completely corrupted.

But at this time, the situation was irreversible.On the front line, Li Wei's new army slowly advanced all the way by relying on the destructive power of artillery. Although the speed was not fast, it was steadily eroding Cao Wei's territory.Unlike Daxia, Wei State did not have a deep enough strategic buffer, so it was unavoidable. After breaking through more than ten cities one after another, Cao Wei was almost unable to withstand it.

Because Daxia's new army has enough mobility, they are not afraid of dragging the front line too long, and they directly advance across the board. They soon approached the city and hit the plains, the capital of Cao Wei. Facing such a situation, Cao Ang, who inherited the throne, had only two men. One option is to transfer the army back to the northern front to confront the new army of Daxia, but this also means that the northern border can no longer defend Yuan Shu. Originally, Yuan Shu had been taking advantage of Li Wei's attack on Wei. The army in the north was pulled away, and it was a situation of front and rear pincers in an instant.

Now anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Wei Kingdom is finished.Although the big battle has not yet begun, anyone with a little brain can understand that the era of Wei State has come to an end.Regarding this result, the senior officials of the Wei State are naturally like a concubine, because Daxia really unified the entire China, with Li Wei's strength, these noble families have no room to survive at all, Li Wei is an out-and-out tyrant, and Still a very capable monarch.

If Li Wei did not appear, then in this era, the status of scholars is still detached. The wealthy family has mastered the way to acquire knowledge and the promotion channel of being an official. Relying on these aspects, the wealthy family can cooperate with each other and control each other. the whole government.The founding emperor of a country is naturally full of prestige and does not need to worry about this problem, but when it comes to the second and third generation, that is the world of aristocratic families.

Therefore, aristocratic families can completely delay and use time to control the entire country.But Li Wei, a wonderful person, directly played the popularization of education for all and opened up people's wisdom. Now Daxia does not say that everyone is literate, but at least the illiteracy rate of the younger generation has been reduced to a minimum, and Li Wei has extracted the essence from Confucianism and removed the dross. The "Yixue" that was born, the idea of ​​equality for everyone is also what these noble families do not want to see. .

Chapter 675. The Unification of China (Part [-])

When the various princes and nobles of Cao Wei were in turmoil, the atmosphere of the people was different. Although the people didn't say it on the surface, they were looking forward to Daxia calling early, and they were better than going to the south. good day.Except for someone in the family who is still worried about being in the army, everyone else is looking forward to waiting for the new army of Daxia to break into the plain and liberate Wei.

Li Wei never dared to relax his penetration into the north, and publicity among the people was naturally the top priority. Li Wei followed the people's line.Because history taught Li Wei a truth, that is, meat eaters are contemptible, and individual elites are nothing more than a drop in the bucket for the entire nation and civilization. Only when the individuals of the entire civilization become smart and strong, this civilization can be regarded as Promising.

The reason why New Huaxia can rise rapidly after the war is because of the emphasis on education, so it was able to complete the journey of more than two hundred years in the West in just a few decades. Li Wei knows this, so when it comes to matters related to the common people , never dared to be sloppy.It's like so many people are now looking forward to the arrival of Daxia, because of the good publicity, Li Wei's nails buried in Wei have been mixed in a good position, equivalent to various "grassroots cadres", and these grassroots The cadre wants to spread some news, ~ that is naturally very simple.

Shadow is already very familiar with this method of blasting from within the enemy, so it has not been discovered. After so long of propaganda and offensives, the grassroots people of Wei state have a consensus, that is, the reason why they are so poor It's because of the fault of Cao Wei's managers. No matter how hard they try, they can't survive. It's all because of being oppressed. After being awakened little by little, the entire Cao Wei folks have accumulated huge grievances. , Especially in Qingzhou, where the most "strong men" were arrested, many people were dissatisfied with Cao Wei, and at this time, they were a little so incited...

As a result, Qingzhou revolted, and the people of Qingzhou who did not have much knowledge were actually very good at instigating. With the full force of Li Wei's nails buried in Qingzhou, Qingzhou launched a large-scale rebellion.Because Wei State's troops were almost exhausted, and Daxia was involved in the Qingzhou rebellion, the rebellion quickly cut off the entire Qingzhou from Cao Wei's territory.

As for Xuzhou?That place is nominally the territory of Cao Wei, but the actual manager is now Daxia, so there is nothing to say.Because they were worried about hurting the common people, the Daxia army did not launch a full-scale attack with great fanfare after hitting the hinterland of Cao Wei. At this time, chess pieces such as Liu Bei and Zhang Fei could come in handy.

Liu Bei and Zhang Fei had always been unhappy during Cao Cao's time, especially after Guan Yu's death in battle, the days were worse by the day, so Liu Bei didn't complain that it was fake.Moreover, after Liu Bei's ambition was wiped out, he just wanted to find a stable environment to live his own peaceful life. Even Zhang Fei decided to "retire", and this naturally happened. Li Wei promised, As long as the two of them can make a move at a critical moment, then the life of a rich man can live on.

At the most chaotic moment of Cao Wei, the private army trained by the shadows stood up, and under the leadership of Liu Bei and Zhang Fei, launched an assault on Cao Wei's palace.It should be said that Cao Wei killed himself, because Cao Wei’s power itself is a large collection of wealthy families, so all kinds of dignitaries will support private armies in order to protect themselves, and the shadows have the economic support of Daxia behind them, plus their own business. The income and the assistance of the Zhen family in Jizhou secretly raised a large elite force, which was prepared for this moment.

The bad consequences of the wealthy family supporting their private army turned back on Cao Wei like this. Liu Bei and Zhang Fei were unparalleled generals with outstanding military force. Under the circumstance of calculating and unintentional, they really took down the palace, and even Cao Hong and Zhang He were beheaded. Unfortunately, Liu Bei and Zhang Fei were unable to capture Cao Ang because they were hindered.However, Liu Bei and Zhang Fei made such a fuss, which also caused chickens and dogs to jump in Pingyuan City. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Daxia's army and Neiying opened the city gates and attacked directly into Pingyuan City.

After a day and night of brutal street fighting, Cao Wei's capital, Plain, was occupied by Daxia.Because the shadows have already done all kinds of preparations, the Daxia army knows the location of the various hiding caves in Plain City. Although the battle is fierce, the loss of personnel is not large, and only less than a thousand casualties are paid. occupied this great city.After occupying Pingyuan City, the Daxia military did not relax, but continued to pursue and fight hard. Now is the time when Cao Wei's forces are the weakest. If they can't be killed at this time, then there will be a lot of trouble in the future.

The sentence that the poor thief does not chase is not true for Da Xia. As long as Cao Cao's family is killed, the backbone of the state of Wei will be finished. Such a good opportunity cannot be missed.At this time, Cao Ang took his family towards the north under the escort of Xiahou brothers and others. Only by reconciling with the army in the north can they have a chance to continue to consume their weak soldiers.But Cao Ang actually knew that the Wei state had already gone, and even if they reconciled with the remaining [-] troops in the northern border, they would only be lingering.

But as the monarch of Cao Wei, anyone can surrender, but he cannot, because he is the eldest son who inherits Cao Cao's legacy.But on the way to escape, Cao Ang encountered an unexpected person.

The large army that could not see the edge in front of them blocked their way in a straight line. Cao Ang knew that he was finished today. In this case, he couldn't rush past. The new weapons equipped by the Daxia army were simply not something they could fight against. of.The remnants of the defeated generals brought out by Cao Ang, that is, more than [-] people, and everyone was injured, how to fight? .

Chapter 676. The Unification of China (Part [-])

"We met for the first time, but I didn't expect it to be like this." Sitting on a super-heavy multi-legged chariot, Li Wei slowly approached the team of defeated soldiers and looked at Cao Ang condescendingly.The pressure brought by the super-heavy chariot with a height of five meters above his head is enormous. More than [-] people kept retreating.

"What are you retreating, I'm only one person, are you even afraid of this?" Li Wei smiled indifferently.

For Li Wei's question, Cao Ang did not speak. The man in front of him single-handedly created a powerful and unprecedented Great Xia Empire, and beat the Qiang people into dead dogs. , Cao Ang knew that compared to the other side, he was nothing more than a rookie monarch, and less than a month after he ascended the throne, he was driven to the point where the mountains and rivers were exhausted.

Li Wei looked at the circle of people in front of him, it seemed that Liu Bei and Zhang Fei were really working hard, and the explosives that the elite troops were equipped with were indeed powerful. With the piercing of defensive violence, coupled with the efforts of the shadows, many eunuchs and palace maids in the palace had been bought before the battle of attack and defense, which was also the reason why the battle would be so smooth.

"Now that we have reached this stage, you are satisfied." Cao Ang raised his head and looked up at Li Wei, his eyes full of cold light.

"No, I'm not satisfied. For me, only dead enemies are good enemies, and you are not dead yet, so I'm still not satisfied. If you can wipe your neck, I will be grateful. "Li Wei said with a smile, the feeling of playing a cat and a mouse is nothing more than this, it is really interesting.

For Cao Cao's family, Li Wei is still a little pity.There are talents who are talented, but their eyes are also limited by the times. Because of the civil war in the Three Kingdoms, the bloodline of China has been greatly reduced. After the return of the Three Kingdoms to Jin, there will be a dark era of Wuhu chaos. If there is no such thing as "kill Hu Ling", I am afraid that the Chinese blood will be cut off. Among them, the reason for the chaos of the Three Kingdoms cannot be escaped.

"Isn't there any room for negotiation?" Cao Ang himself was not afraid of death, but all his family members were to die.

"Do you think this is doing business? Although Daxia's business atmosphere is very strong, not everything can be used for business, especially for national interests. Daxia is a hidden danger, and I like to cut grass and root."

Li Wei looked at the remnants of the defeated generals behind Cao Ang. Those who could follow Cao Ang to this point were the most loyal soldiers to Cao Wei. With the fall of Pingyuan City, most of the remaining troops had surrendered, and those who did not surrender were beheaded. .Moreover, in the absence of logistics, the [-] troops in the north are just sitting on the mountain. Even if Cao Ang and those troops reconcile, it will not help. The army without logistics supply will not be able to exert its combat effectiveness at all, and they will starve to death if they are hungry. .As long as Li Wei compresses their maneuvering range, just besieging and not attacking can make the [-] army self-destruct without attacking.

Li Wei patted the big man under him, and the driver in the cockpit turned around with the heavy chariot. Li Wei finally looked back at the soldier who was willing to follow Cao Ang to his death. Although he felt it was a pity, Li Wei did not. I am not envious at all, because like Cao Ang, he has soldiers who are willing to die for him.Li Wei's heart was a little complicated when he thought of the fanatical worship of him by the Daxia army, but he was accustomed to this feeling, not only as a "God of War", but also as a "God of Food" and "God of Wealth" among the people.

Perhaps, Li Wei will be mythologically regarded as a god in charge of war, wealth and food in later generations, but Li Wei is already a god and does not need these beliefs.Although the power of faith is a good thing for ordinary gods, Li Wei still despises such power. He is not fighting for the worship of others, but because he is in this era and is pushed by the sense of historical mission Moving forward... ...it doesn't matter if he is not understood, what he wants to do is for the entire ethnic group and civilization.

Li Wei did not look back. The army made way for Li Wei to open a wide road, and behind Li Wei, a large number of multi-legged chariots and firearms began to fire, and the gunshots were loud for a while, and the thrown explosive packets fell on these remnants of defeated soldiers. , instantly exploded into a piece of flesh and blood.Li Wei closed his eyes and opened his arms to enjoy the carnival of the guns. The pure man never looked back at the explosion.The war with Wei is over.

With the death of Cao Ang and other members of the Cao family, this war completed a beautiful crushing with Daxia's absolute advantage. Jizhou, Qingzhou and Xuzhou were officially incorporated into Daxia's territory.On the other hand, the Northwest Front Army that attacked Bingzhou has also achieved gratifying results. Luoyang has been conquered by Daxia, and the puppet Han regime controlled by He Miao has officially perished. Continuing north, only Yuan Shu, Gongsun Zan and Dong Zhuo are left. But this is already a disease of mustard moss, and Li Wei does not care about it, letting the military play freely to fight these three forces.

2.2 However, to Li Wei's surprise, Gongsun Zan surrendered very readily, and acted as a forward for Daxia to attack Dong Zhuo and Yuan Shu. In less than a month, the entire northern border was included in Daxia's territory, and Huaxia was officially unified. .

Although it seems very easy, in order to stably unify the entire land of China, Li Wei has also made a lot of preparations. It is not an easy thing to expand his economic size.The most important thing is to have enough materials to clean up the mess caused by the war. The princes in the north will beat me and I will beat you. In the end, it is the common people who suffer, and the trouble is Li Wei who takes over the mess.

In addition to the economy and materials, another important thing is the handling of the aristocratic family. .

chapter 677. clean up the mess

Dealing with aristocratic families has been a difficult task for the kings of all dynasties, because it is difficult for poor families to produce noble sons, and in the end, the emperor still has to select talents from within these wealthy families. Decay.Because the emperor needs these few elites to maintain his own rule, not only can he not suppress the aristocratic family, he must also treat the wealthy family as guests.

The most serious political period of the aristocratic clans was in the middle and late Ming Dynasty. The literati dominated the government, but they were obsessed with party struggle and internal friction, which dragged the Ming Dynasty into the abyss.Most of the scholar-officials in the Ming Dynasty were from wealthy and wealthy families. It was not that there were no officials from poor families, but very few of them were. What can't be said, the emperor has become the plaything of the wealthy family, and the whole country is also dominated by these so-called "family world" and "the way of saints cannot be violated".

Especially after the so-called "eunuchs" who are loyal to the royal family have been thoroughly discredited, these aristocratic families are even more lawless, colluding with foreign enemies, buying and selling military private goods, and merging land. Is there anything these aristocratic families can't do?It is precisely because Li Wei knows the ugly faces of the wealthy and powerful families that he is so vigilant that he directly kills all the aristocratic families in Daxia, cutting off the foundation of the aristocratic family from the root.Because the family is innocent, but when the family sits in that position, the butt decides that the head will naturally go astray.

As for these aristocratic families in the north, Li Wei showed no mercy, and directly let people start to search the properties of these aristocratic families, and then exiled and beheaded.As for the Confucian family in Qufu, Li Wei also completely eradicated it. For a time, Li Wei's reputation was completely stinky among the scholars, because Li Wei wiped out the blood of the sage Kong.

But Li Wei just sneered, this so-called after Kong Sheng, that's all.In the Ming Dynasty, when the Qing army entered the customs, the descendants of the Kong family immediately went to kneel and lick.Especially after Li Wei achieved great success in implementing Yixue in Daxia, the existence of Confucianism was quite embarrassing, so Li Wei simply added a fire and completely eradicated those outdated things in Confucianism.

Moreover, the popularity rate of Confucianism is not as good as that of the more refined and sharp Confucianism. In another ten or twenty years, no one will remember Confucianism except those lingering sour literati. Under the impact of Yixue, the more dull and cowardly Confucianism can only be replace elimination.Because Yixue itself is the knowledge refined by stepping on the shoulders of Confucianism, and adding various advanced ideas of later generations, its advanced level surpasses Confucianism for at least a thousand years.
