  Chapter 2275 The psychological gap between ideal and reality

  『The people who are greedy for ink start with the tongue of sheep, the pursuit of ink, fame, wealth and sex, the art of greed for ink, bullying the superior...』

"Han Taifu Jia Gong, Chen Shiyu Emperor Xiaowen said, "Everyone who speaks is saying that the world is in peace and order, and the minister alone thinks that it is not yet. Those who say that peace and order are not stupid are flattering." Jia Gong's words are not harsh reprimands Also, it is the truth. It is unavoidable not to look into its disadvantages, and it is foolish to treat it with peace and order, but to praise it with peace and order without looking at what its talents can't do..."

  『The land of today’s Longyou Hexi, although it is said to be in peace and order, has been raped for a long time. The officials are corrupt and the soldiers are weak, the people are in dire straits, and when the floods and droughts are rampant, thieves and thieves flourish. Taxes and labors are increasing, food and drink are required, and everything is used to the extreme...』

  『People who are greedy for ink, use it for wealth, but in fact it is against the foundation. Accumulating bribes in order to relocate, follow the example, as an official of the imperial court, he does not ask for farming and mulberry, does not control water conservancy, only seeks the color of yellow and white, exploits the merchants, bends the law, and acts recklessly. In the long run, morality has deteriorated, and the country will lose the country...』

  『The way is not correct, the job is not clear, if this is dead, how can there be a country? Those who are officials, hold the salary and flatter them, and those who are the people, fear crimes and obey, even if they are in peace for a while, the war will eventually be inevitable! The governance or non-government of the world, the security or unrest of the people and things are determined here. 』

  『Ten years of severe illness, today's treatment, a century of revival, today's beginning. 』

  『This call is widely heard. 』

   Just as Zhang Liao was hunting down the horse thieves, a volume of writing was circulated in the land of Hexi.

  With the release of the call-to-action document, some people were panicked, while others were stunned, and then all kinds of undercurrents surged.

  Many smart people know the usual method used by the Hussar General of the Han Dynasty, that is, "ceremony first and then soldiers".

  If you are not smart...

  That is hopeless.

   This is not it, "Li" is here!

  In the call-to-action, it seems that it only talked about the historical origin of the so-called greedy ink in a popular way, and then explained some methods of greedy ink, but many people have noticed some vague dangers in this plain and plain call-to-action.

  Because in the call to action, the opening article mentions the sheep tongue fish.

Speaking of the twenty-four histories of China, in fact, looking at it, it is more like a history of corruption. There are as many corrupt officials in the past dynasties as crucian carp crossing the river, but there are very few high-ranking, clean and simple officials. .

  In history, it is hard to find who was the first corrupt official, but the first corrupt official to appear in writing, that is, the originator of the word "greedy ink", was the aristocratic sheep tongue fish of the Jin Dynasty in the Spring and Autumn Period.

This guy is a typical second-generation official. His father is a high-ranking official in Jin State, and his elder brother Yang Tongue is also an important minister of Jin State. She grew up in such a family environment of official family. In fact, his father and brother have already woven the net for him, and generally speaking, the starting point is very high.

The sheep-tongued fish, who received special care, served as the fake Sima of the Jin State at the beginning, and then began his behavior of using public power to accept bribes and extort bribes undisguisedly, and even the object of his blackmail was a The king of the country. Of course, to a certain extent, this kind of behavior can also be interpreted as invading the strength of other countries, but a later incident made the sheep-tongued fish irrefutable.

In the state of Jin, there was a dispute between two large aristocratic families over the boundaries of their land, and one of them, Yongzi, married his daughter to Goat Tongue. The land that originally belonged to another nobleman, Marquis Xing, was assigned to Yongzi.

   Sheep tongue fish seems to be doing the right thing, since they are all in-laws, so naturally they have to help out...

   Or the sheep tongue fish thinks that it can be awarded to Yongzi first, and then after Xinghou also sends beautiful women, he can give some to Xinghou. It takes both sides, wouldn't it be cool to hug left and right?

  Of course, what the sheep tongue fish thought in detail, people who came later have no way of knowing.

   It’s just that Marquis Xing has a bad temper. After the verdict came out, he immediately picked up a knife and splashed blood all over his body. He not only killed Yongzi, but also the sheep tongue fish, and then surrendered...

After a big incident, Han Xuanzi, who was in charge of the Jin Dynasty, had to come forward to settle the matter himself. He called the elder brother of the sheep-tongued fish to come over and asked, who killed your brother? The murderer is here, what do you think?

  Yang Tong Yu had no choice but to say that all three of them were guilty, and his younger brother Yang Tong Yu’s crime was "Mo", which meant discrediting the monarch and himself...

   Probably such a meaning.

  However, what is derived from this call-to-action is somewhat intriguing.

   Sheep tongue fish, Tanmo, dead,

  Yongzi, bribed, died.

  Xinghou, the murderer, died.

  Even though the three had many reasons and various excuses, in the end it was decided that "all three are guilty." 』

   So, got it?

  As soon as the proclamation came out, many big households couldn't sit still. Isn't this clearly the rhythm of one pot, and it still hangs on the height of governance, such a big pit, you can't jump down!

So in various counties, those big households who sneakily lent to the magistrates and magistrates to fill their warehouses began to ask for it back. Where can we cry for a crime like "Yongzi"?

  Then where are the magistrates and heads of counties and townships in various places willing to do it? Once the money is taken back, isn't everything revealed? If you want to die, everyone will die together, the paralyzed big dog, if you want to leave us alone, don't even think about it!

In the beginning, only one or two counties were arguing, but then all the counties and townships had the same disputes. The alliance that had been working seamlessly fell apart in an instant because of the interests. After all, many people started jumping over the wall in a hurry.

  In addition, after the news that Zhang Liao slaughtered Zeng Dahu’s gang of horse thieves arrived, almost everyone realized that this call-to-action is probably not just talk, but a real action...

First of all, some county and township officials couldn't sit still, so they simply acted preemptively, killing one or two big households to confiscate their homes and recover their accounts, but most of them saw that the situation was not good, so they sent people to Han Guozhi Department of "reporting and exposing"...

  The entire land of Longyou, Hexi, suddenly felt like a pus clot burst, and blood and thick water flowed everywhere!

   In this way, the chaos will definitely be chaos, but after the thick water is completely squeezed out, the injury will not continue to worsen, but there is still the possibility of recovery and even re-growth.

After all, Han Guo was a bit young, he couldn't sit still when he saw such a situation, and he inevitably became flustered in his heart, but fortunately there was an old fox Jia Xu sitting in the back, who sent a letter to calm Han Guo's emotions, And instructed Han Guo to continue to send personnel to take over local administration in some places that have been exposed and treated the thick water.

To put it simply, Zhang Liao is like a scalpel, cutting east and west, causing blood and thick water to overflow everywhere, and chickens and dogs jumping everywhere, breaking the original order and alliance of interests, and then Han Guo It’s like mending needles and thread, following behind Zhang Liao, who is responsible for sewing up the cut wound, while Jia Xu slowly moves forward behind, like a piece of plaster, sticking it little by little, A little bit of governance…

   This method stunned many people, because these people never thought that such an operation could be performed!

  Among these people, there are Qiang people, especially Beigong.

  Different from most Qiang people, Beigong is quite familiar with the administrative model of the Han people, so he has never believed that Zhang Liao, Jia Xu and others will play such a big game...

   It is clear that it is a year or even years of taxation, and the posture of officials must be thoroughly rectified!

  After all, in Beigong’s impression, the officials of the Han people, apart from being able to collect money, then thinking of ways to collect money, and finally collecting money in a shameless manner, seem to not do anything else.

  And the change now, Bei Gong frowned, thinking that this seems to be a good thing, but it also seems to be a bad thing. For ordinary people, Han officials with clearer officials are of course better, but will the same conclusion be reached for Qiang people? Could it be that the stronger the Han people are, the more unlucky the Qiang people will be?

  Ordinary Qiang people don’t have to think about this issue, but Beigong has to think about it, because he knows that if he doesn’t think about this issue, maybe no Qiang people will think about it.

  『Come on! Go invite the leader... come to discuss the matter! 』

  Bei Gong finally made up his mind and asked his subordinates to gather other tribal leaders.

  …(`dish)…

  Gongsun Du on the other side also had to make up his mind.

  As time went by, the situation became more and more unfavorable for Gongsundu.

Although it is said that Gongsun Du repeats his old tricks and does not have much creativity to make Ding Ling and Cao Jun fight each other, in reality, Ding Lingren and Cao Jun are not fools, and they did not act according to Gongsun Du's script. On the contrary, Cao Chun After raiding Lulongzhai and then controlling Lulong's return route, Gongsundu was extremely uncomfortable.

  Gongsun Du intends to fight a victory and then retreat, so as to at least ensure a stronger morale, so as not to say that if he retreats, he will collapse and be defeated, but the problem is that what he thinks and what he does will always be a pair of enemies. If everything in this world can come true, then there will not be so many sad pasts and regrets.

  Can't retreat easily...

   This is a very simple conclusion.

  Because Gongsun Du is in Liaodong, he is really called the Emperor of the Earth. If he runs back in disgrace now, even if he is unscathed during the withdrawal process, it will definitely cause some people in Liaodong to start floating.

   What's more, Gongsun Du thought that if he withdrew his troops easily, he might not be able to stop Cao Jun's pursuit.

  『Despicable! 』

  『Shameless! 』

  『No morality! 』

  『Shameless! 』

  Gongsundu cursed Cao Cao more than once, saying that Cao Cao, a bastard, is simply not human. It has been a long time since the peace talks, and the mat is still not cold. But Gongsun Du has nothing to do. After all, the covenant and peace talks were only on the top of the "talk", and it has not yet reached the time of the "coalition", so Cao Cao turned his face and refused to admit it. In fact, to a certain extent, it is nothing. …

  In anxiety, Gongsundu received the news that Ding Lingren had retreated, which made him finally make up his mind that he could not procrastinate any longer and had to evacuate, otherwise he would suffer even greater losses if he stayed in the northern part of Youzhou.

Gongsundu immediately found Liu Yi, announcing that his strategic goal of attacking Youzhou had been completed, but the treacherous Cao Cao ruined everything, especially Cao Chun's daring to attack Lulongzhai was unforgivable, and Cao Cao must be punished. Just a lesson, let Cao Jun gain some insight...

  Of course, Liu Yi still used the old saying, "My lord is right..."

Immediately, Gongsun Du sent someone to contact Ding Lingren, saying that he had taken the initiative to abandon Yuyang City according to the previous agreement with Ding Lingren, and then the whole army was dispatched, and rushed to Lulongzhai before Cao Jun arrived. .

Not only that, but Gongsundu also left some hidden people in Yuyang City, just waiting for anyone, no matter whether it is Ding Lingren or Cao Jun, to set fire to the city. In this way, no matter which side occupies Yuyang , can't get out immediately, and there is no way to get more resources.

  But what Gongsun Du did not expect was that neither Ding Lingren nor Cao Jun stepped on the trap he left...

For Ding Lingren, many people were intimidated by Cao Hong's large-scale suspicious soldiers. Even if they had some doubts, they did not dare to use the lives of people in their own tribe to test them out. Therefore, even the most greedy people, under the threat of death, gradually I will be more sober, and when I see it, it will become the main trend of thought. exist

  Under such a situation, even if there are Dingling people who think Yuyang is good, they just feel that it is a pity that they can't just grab it. But if these Dingling people go back and make a special trip to Yuyang, they must feel that it is not worthwhile...

On the other hand, Cao Hong, his main goal is not to chase Ding Lingren desperately. After all, he doesn't have that much power, so he aimed at Gongsun Du from the beginning, and because Cao Hong knew in his heart that Yuyang was going through a catastrophe. After that it must have been dilapidated.

This point can be guessed without detection, so instead of accepting Yuyang, you can concentrate on chasing and killing Gongsun. If you accept Yuyang, Cao Jun will not care about the various problems in Yuyang. After all, it is very troublesome...

So a very strange situation appeared. Yuyang used to be fought by three parties, but now all three parties don’t want it. It’s like a red card in a brothel. People spurn.

   As a result, Gongsun Du fell into an extremely bad situation!

  Especially after the soldiers of the Gongsun Army found out that their former big brother in Liaodong had been knocked down, the self-critic damage caused by this psychological gap made the situation even worse.

  It doesn't take long to go from ambitious to self-defeating.

A group of Gongsun soldiers with very emaciated spirits were slowly advancing. They fanned out and looked listlessly at the surrounding mountains and forests. Some of them looked like frightened birds. A little unusual movement would scare them. , and then curled up involuntarily, pointing the knife and gun at the abnormal sound.

  These are the Gongsun soldiers in charge of guarding behind...

After withdrawing from Yuyang, even though Gongsundu encouraged him again and again, and even issued a command at the end, the soldiers were not allowed to discuss the situation of the battle, and they were not allowed to pass any news in the army. Anyone who violated it would be guilty of deceiving the public with evil words He was punished by beheading, but even though the order was so severe, some gossip still spread quietly in the army...

In addition, after passing through Youbeiping County, the rations allotted changed from six liters a day to four liters a day, and then not long after, it became three liters a day. The rumors still seem to have grown wings, flying around.

   Compared with running out of food, the enemy is actually not terrible.

  When you encounter enemies, you can still fight them, and you can exchange your lives for them, but if you run out of food, you don’t need the enemy to do anything, and hunger can crush them...

Because of hunger, there will be quarrels every time the food is distributed, and every soldier who gets the food will immediately find a way to eat the food as quickly as possible, just like wandering refugees, there will never be enough food, and no one dares Keep any food, and even feel hungrier because of it. Normally, six liters can resist one day, and three liters can resist half a day. Although this is not the case, but often after eating three liters, you are still hungry. You are hungry all day long. Hunger is like a ubiquitous devil, in everyone's ears Make a silent grin.

  No one knows whether they can go back, thinking wildly in their minds, hungry in their stomachs, the morale of Gongsun soldiers is inevitably low, and there is no fighting spirit...

  There was a "click", and there was a strange noise from the woods on the side, and suddenly these Gongsun soldiers shouted in horror, "Come out!" who is it! I see you! 』

  Gongsun's soldiers roared loudly, stared, and huddled together.

   There was silence all around, and there was no sound.

  The leader of the team, Gongsun Bing, slowly straightened up, turned around, pretended to be relaxed and said to his subordinates: "Damn it, look at you cowards..."

  『Whoosh! 』

   Team Gongsun had only spoken half of what he said, when an arrow flew out from the forest, pierced it directly from the back, and then exposed a small half of the blood-stained arrow on the chest!

  『What……………………………………’’ Gongsun Bing led the last two groans, then fell headlong to the ground.

  Amidst the whistle, Le Jin led Cao Jun to rush out from the forests and bushes on both sides, and then killed the panicked Gongsun soldiers in a blink of an eye.

  『Take off the armor of these guys! Hurry up! Don't use it, but use it! Le Jin flicked the blood stained on the saber in his hand, and ordered loudly, "The corpses must be thrown into the woods!" Don't stay on the road! Then someone, go get some loess and dead leaves to cover these bloodstains...』

  Cao Jun responded one after another, and then one Cao Jun said to Le Jin, "General Le, you are so powerful!" You know so much! 』

"It's nothing..." Le Jin smiled, waved his hands, and then seemed to think of something not very funny, his face was a little stiff, and finally he said, "Stop talking nonsense, move faster ! Tonight... Hey, there's a big deal tonight, so don't lose the chain! 』
