Three Kingdoms.

  Chapter 2264 Cooperation is very important

"This is a place that has been rotten to the extreme..." Jia Xu looked at Zhang Liao and others who were going away, with a slight smile on his face, "From skin to bone, everything is rotten... For a place like this, the more you use plaster Put it on, and it will rot even more inside...』

"I was born here and grew up here. I want to make this land better every day, but..." Jia Xu laughed strangely, "I just see it getting worse and worse. worse! Everyone is comparing each other! Whoever is worse can live a better life! 』

"Well, there are some that are not rotten...but those that are not rotten are dragged away by a bunch of rotten people, and then either gradually rot, or they can no longer smell the rotten smell, and they get used to it..." Jia Xu patted the battlements, patted hard, his palms turned red, "The whole area, the inside and outside of this place, stinks!" Didn't you smell it? ! 』

   The guards around Jia Xu couldn't help being a little surprised, and exchanged glances with each other, somewhat uneasy, because they rarely saw Jia Xu being so emotional.

  Only a young man stood beside Jia Xu, silent.

  『I used to think that rot was passed down from above, so I also wanted to knock down all these rotten houses, these damaged walls, and these worm-grown beams and pillars! Jia Xu raised his head, stretched out his hand forward, as if pushing something, and then pushed it down, and then let out a sigh, "It's a pity... I found it useless... This kind of rot is simply It wasn’t passed down from above, it’s because they wanted to die in the first place, and then they just found an excuse...』

"It's like your father..." Jia Xu turned his head and looked at Han Guo, "Your father is half a rotten person... He originally wanted to be a good person, but he was eroded and rotten... When your father also started to When his own rot makes excuses, he is already hopeless...』

  Han Guo is still silent, just like his life for so many years, silent, listening, learning, like a weed in the cracks of stones, inconspicuous.

  The father's debt is paid by the son. Sometimes this sentence seems a little unreasonable, but sometimes it makes sense. Not all debts can be eliminated, and not many debts can be superimposed infinitely. Although Han Sui can only be regarded as his adoptive father, his adoptive father is also his father, and he is now the one to pay for his father's sins. His father Han Sui promised on the altar back then that he would return Longyou to a peaceful world, but in the end, even Han Sui himself fell into it.

   This is Han Sui's debt, and this is Han Guo's career.

  Jia Xu looked at Han Guo's calm eyes, and then laughed, "Well, that's right... I thought you would get angry, or hold back your anger..."

  『Strict first...』Han Guo finally spoke, his voice hoarse, like sand and stone grinding each other, completely inconsistent with his youthful appearance, "There was a word, if there is a change, then change it..."

  『Pass, where did you come from? ’ Jia Xu asked.

  『Guo…』Han Guo frowned slightly, and suddenly felt that his name seemed a bit off-putting, 「Please advise Jia Shijun…」

  『Come from a small place. Jia Xu said slowly, "The emperor has made mistakes, but if one person's mistakes are corrected, how many people will be harmed?" The ministers have made mistakes, but if there is a sound of integrity, they will be more or less restrained. The officials have made mistakes. If discipline and law are strict, they will be less corrupt. The common people have also made mistakes. If...」

Jia Xu stopped suddenly, tilted her head, as if she had encountered some problem, thought for a while, "I have had it too. Back then, I devoted myself to overthrowing these things, and never thought about how to build them... Now, I just change it... go stop! Make all the mistakes left in the past and correct them! 』

Han Guo bowed his head and bowed, then straightened up, turned around and walked down the city wall, walked slowly along the street, entered the Jincheng government office, looked at the people sitting or standing in the hall. The young officials and subordinates, big and small, said in a deep voice, like a golden stone falling on the ground: "I accept the order of the hussars!" 』

   Around the corridor and in the courtyard, all the people are either sitting or standing, only the sound of the wind blowing through the roof and the tricolor flag swinging...

  『Gentleman, be Hongyi! 』

  『The heaven and the earth cannot be held back, and the people cannot be bullied! 』

  『Since you are a gentleman, you should take good care of yourself, and your original intention cannot be changed. 』

  『Today's investigation, there are local officials in Longyou who are corrupt, colluding with gangs, shielding each other, and poisoning the localities. There are special orders! 』

  『Thoroughly inspect the warehouse, check the accounts, write off and check, and recover the dirty money! Anyone who has corrupted the court and taxed the court, invaded the population's fields, fish and meat, and the countryside within ten years will be investigated! 』

  『Those who make up the money will be reduced, and those who resist in the corner will be beheaded! 』

  『Everyone who accepts bribes, engages in private relationships, tampers with accounts, or covers up collaborators, all of you will break the law with knowing the law, and the crime will be treated as a third class! In special times, there is a law of marching. If there is chaos in the army, the corps leader will cover up the subordinates, and those who are not checked will be killed. If there is chaos in the team, if the military lord does not check, the military lord will be killed! If there is any chaos in the army, I will kill it myself, and then put my head in front of the hussars and kill myself as a thank you! 』

  『Gentlemen, be cautious and encourage! 』

  A large group of heads lowered, and the overall voice became high-pitched: "Wei! Follow the order of the hussars! 』

  『All of them! Set off! 』

  …(`Д*)9…

  『Patriarch! Patriarch! 』

  In the yamen of Weiduanfu in Chang'an, a steward was sweating profusely, holding the hem of his robe in front of him with one hand, and hurried forward.

  『Why panic? 』Wei Duan frowned slightly.

  『Patriarch...』 The steward swallowed a mouthful of saliva, then moved closer, and said in a low voice, "People from Longyou... say, say yes..."

   Wei Duan froze for a moment, then stood up abruptly, "Is this really true? 』

  After the words were spoken, Wei Duan also knew that asking was useless, but it was just a subconscious behavior because he was too anxious, so Wei Duan immediately added, "Where is the person?" 』

  『It’s in the front yard, is the head of the house going now? ’ asked the steward.

   Wei Duan took a step forward, but stopped, then stood, frowned and thought for a while, "Get him out!" 』

"what? ! ’ The steward was stunned.

  『…and then take it to the courtyard at the corner of the back alley…』 Wei Duan withdrew his step, 『Remember! I have never seen this person! 』

"Understood! The little one understands! 』The steward nodded and bowed, turned around and left.

  『Hussar... What is this for? 』Wei Duan turned around in the hall with his hands behind his back.

I thought that Hussar General Fei Qian went north to Yinshan, and Guanzhong could at least calm down a little bit, but what I didn't expect was that there was really no big thing in Guanzhong, and then something big happened in Longyou. Looking at this posture, it seems that Longyou is going to turn the world upside down generally. But the question is what should I do in this matter?

Wei Duan suddenly thought of Du Ji, and then suddenly realized that when Du Ji took office as the magistrate of Lantian County, Wei Duan thought that Du Ji was overqualified, and even condescending, but now that he thinks about it, Du Ji seems to be the real one. Great wisdom, far away from the hustle and bustle...

   Could it be that Du Ji had foreseen this at that time?

  『Come on! Wei Duan suddenly trembled, "Listen up! From now on, I will be living in an official residence, and anyone who comes to me will say that I am not at home! In addition, from today onwards, the gates will be closed, and everyone in the mansion is not allowed to go out except to buy necessary things! 』

  『Do you understand? ”Wei Duan said anxiously, “Prepare the cart...wait a minute, prepare the horse, I will go to the official house now...remember, anyone who wants to look for it will say that I am not here! 』

  …щ(Дщ)…

  Longxi, Longyou!

  The relationship between Guanzhong, Longxi and Longyou is too close. It's like the outside and the inside, like light and darkness.

  Since the Qin Dynasty, it has been almost like this.

  Guanzhong, Xianyang Chang'an, extremely brilliant, admired by the world, who has paid attention to what Longyou has done in this process? The bright and bright ones are all in Chang'an, and the dark and obscure ones of course fall in Longxi and Longyou. These are interdependent in themselves, so that in the Tang Dynasty, they were simply combined together and called the Guanlong Group.

This question is actually very simple. From the beginning of the Western Han Dynasty to the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Western Qiang wars continued for hundreds of years, especially during the reign of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty. Several major riots broke out in the Western Qiang Dynasty, which cost tens of billions of military funds. According to the plan, the replacement of generals and commanders should be no less than dozens of people. Are they all so incompetent that they can't solve the problem?

   Is it really that troublesome to suppress Xiqiang?

  Why is it so fun to suppress the Yellow Turban Army?

Some people may say that it is due to the region, because Longyou is wider than Jizhou and Yuzhou, but in fact it is not. Those vast areas are not suitable for settlement, and they are also not suitable for army gathering. Therefore, controlling the main points is also controlling That's why Jincheng is so important, and it will only be stable if it is stable.

  So geography is never the most important reason.

   There is always only one important reason.

   People's hearts.

   Abandoning the Western Regions and Longxi, what are the benefits for the Shanxi people?

No.

   Not at all.

   Only beneficial to Shandong people.

  Want to lead a group of Shanxi people to defeat the Shanxi people on the territory of the Shanxi people? Isn't it the same as Ying Jiang leading a group of monkeys to beat monkeys on the monkey territory? Who will win in the end?

  So the big man became weaker and weaker, while Longyou became more and more chaotic.

  Obviously, what the hussars mean now is that this kind of chaos should end. But these big households in Longyou, who are already used to eating meat, are willing to change to eating grass? After all, not everyone can learn the skills of iron-eating beasts...

  『This time, the hussars really did it...』

   A group of people were silent in the shadows.

  『That’s my dock! mine! Damn it, **** it! ”Zeng Dahu patted on the table, “We must let the **** hussars know how powerful we are…”

   "It's not us, it's just you..." A voice came from the audience.

  『Bastard! who? stand out! Zeng Dahu said angrily, "I'm the only one now, right?" I'm just asking you one question here! Do the blood oaths and fingerprints made by the alliance back then still count? ! What's different this time? What's there to be afraid of? Last time it was the Northern Army of the Han Dynasty! Aren't you being played by us like the second idiot? 』

  『Oh, you all came out when the money was distributed, and now you all want to hide? Where can I hide? 』

  『This time the hussars are going to attack the whole Longyou! whole! 』

  『The more you hide, the more the hussars will like it! 』

  『When the time comes, you will be arrested one by one, and then your homes will be ransacked and your clan will be wiped out one by one! 』

Zeng Dahu almost stood up angrily, and slapped the table, "At the beginning you didn't want to come forward, and I came forward, and you didn't want to take over this mess. Yes, what's the matter, now that the situation is wrong, you want to kick me out? 』

  When Zeng Dahu was angry, no one said anything, they all looked at him quietly, until he finished speaking, someone suddenly sneered and said: "You stood up at the beginning because you could earn more..."

  『How many benefits have you taken for yourself in the past few years? Do you think everyone doesn’t know? 』

  『After all, he is General Loyalty... how nice it sounds, Zeng Zhongyi...』

   As soon as this sentence was uttered, it immediately caused a lot of people to sneer.

   But the laughter didn't last long, Zeng Dahu kicked over the table with a "dong", stood up, and shouted: "This old man is loyal and unfaithful, it's not your turn to judge!" What have you done yourself, you don't need me to say it in public? Let me tell you bluntly, if you want to do everything right today, don't blame the old man for being rude! 』

  『The old man will withdraw all the money he swallowed over the years! After all, I still have the title of General Loyalty! what about you? Ok? At that time, all of you will be uprooted by the Hussar General, and there will be no hair left! 』

  『…』

  『Wow…』

  In the hall, it was quiet for a while, and then it became like boiling rice porridge, not only gurgling, but also splashing everywhere!

  『So, you planned to blackmail us a long time ago? 』

  Among the angry and cursing, a cold and calm voice became more prominent, and after the voice came out, the others gradually stopped and turned their heads to look.

  『Beigong…』 Zeng Dahu’s eyes were cold, 『You still want to fight against me? 』

  『Right? ’Bei Gong sneered, ‘It’s the other way around, it’s you who are against us…’

  Bei Gong didn't even raise his eyelids, as if he didn't care about Zeng Dahu at all, "Why do you need so much money?" At first, things gradually calmed down, and after a few years, I will forget what happened back then... As a result, some people still can't control their greed and want to make money...』

   The surrounding noise became quiet when Bei Gong spoke.

  Many people sneered and looked at Zeng Dahu.

  That’s right, back then we swore together, drank blood wine, and became brothers together, but what about the past few years?

   You, a big family once took **** money to exchange for a loyal general, but what about the former "brothers"? When it comes to making money, it’s none of your business, and if something goes wrong, you have to deal with it together. Is there such a “brother”?

  Amidst the reprimands, Zeng Dahu sneered a few times, "Okay, since everyone is tearing their faces apart, there is nothing to say!" 』

  『You...wouldn’t think that I’m not prepared for anything,』 Zeng Dahu sneered, "Why don’t you come to call you for a discussion? I have already sent people to Chang'an, if something happens to me... I will keep your accounts all these years! 』

  Gritting his teeth, Zeng Dahu emphasized his tone, "I'm making money, hehe, without the cooperation of you guys, how could I make money?" Even... without the bluff of the Qiang people under Beigong, how could there be such a big stall today? 』

   Zeng Dahu stared and sneered, "And you... you... and you... you guys have less benefits than me? 』

  『…』

   Immediately, the faces of many people began to become more and more angry and distorted. Everyone who was pointed out by Zeng Dahu looked like he was about to shoot the case, but when he saw that others were silent, he held back.

  『I'm the head of the eaves, the wind and rain hit the old man's face, the old man said nothing! ? Zeng Dahu looked around, "What happened to General Loyalty?" That's what I deserve! Without me covering it up in the front, would it be so smooth for all of you to take advantage of the low places? It's better now, all of you pretend that nothing is the same, and want to leave me alone, so you are all good people? Hussars will let you go? You are so naive! 』

  『Do you know how the hussars did it? Do you know what happened after my dock was breached? ’ Zeng Dahu was aggressive, ‘You don’t know anything! But the **** doesn't know anything and dares to talk back to the old man here, and still wants to get rid of the crime! You are all a bunch of idiots! including you! Beigong! 』

  Bei Gong subconsciously wanted to slap the table, but held back, "Tell me... what happened after the dock was broken?" 』

  Zeng Dahu stepped on the table he had overturned, "Oh? Scared now? All of you were very tyrannical just now, why don't you jump up now? ah? 』

"Do not talk nonsense! If you really don't want to say it, you won't ask us to come! ’Bei Gong said coldly, ‘Don’t play tricks, just be real! 』

"Humph! Zeng Dahu snorted, "Breaking Wubao...it's nothing...you're laughing!" The old man is heartbroken, but he also knows that there are some losses that should be paid for! But this time it's really different...really different...』

  Zeng Dahu's voice gradually lowered, even a little trembling, "What was it like before?" It doesn’t matter if we robbed our docks, they are all in the army anyway, money and utensils can’t be eaten, at most it’s a waste, when we defeat them, it’s ours again... right? But this time...it's really different...they gave the things, the money...all, to those poor ghosts...』

  『Hehe…』Someone laughed loudly, 『Wouldn’t that be better? Wouldn't it be easier to **** it from the poor than from the hussar army? Haha...uh, heh...』

  When only you laugh and no one else laughs, it is somewhat embarrassing.

  『Idiot! ’Bei Gong snorted unceremoniously, then stared at Zeng Dahu, ‘Speaking of which, how do we cooperate? 』
