Three Kingdoms.

  Chapter 2399 Information cocoon room

  In Chang'an, when Feiqian was thinking about the future direction of the army in the martial arts hall, another administrative center of the Han Dynasty, Xu County, was also discussing related matters in the army.

  『Nowadays, the battle in Qingxu is fierce. Jiangdong’s rebellious army has repeatedly increased its troops, and its army has reached nearly 100,000...Auxiliary troops, transporting food and grass, tens of thousands of auxiliary troops, the total number may be 150,000...』

"New reinforcements have arrived from Jiangdong, and the siege of Xiapi has been going on for several days...According to military reports, Jiangdong rebels dug the earth to surround it. Fearing a powerful enemy, we killed and wounded thousands of Jiangdong bandits...however, our army was also damaged by many...』

  In the Chongde Hall, Emperor Liu Xie was staring at the map, listening to others' narration, imagining the battle of Qingxu in his mind.

  These bystanders are of course a group of "Ai Qing" headed by Xi Xi.

   After Xixi arrived in Xu County, he quickly adapted to the life here, and even felt like a fish in water.

  Sweet air, familiar atmosphere. There are no those annoying and disgusting exams, only "high-quality" people, wearing luxurious clothes, with exquisite jade Zhang, relaxed and comfortable.

The key is that there are still people who continue to invite Xi Ji to the banquet, and then they only need to tell a few specious information about hussars during the banquet, especially revealing something about the "dirty mess" of Chang'an Sanfu. It has been highly recognized by many people, even praised beyond imagination.

  The "enlightened" Chi Chi, the fighter who dares to speak the "truth"...

  A banquet, a gift of thanks after the banquet, 20,000 yuan.

  A longer literary meeting will cost 50,000 yuan to start.

  If you come forward to tell the "anecdotes" about Huqi, and joke about Guanzhong Sanfu, you will need an appearance fee of 100,000 yuan to invite Chi Chi...

pretty.

  How long have you been in Xu County? Xi Xi has become much paler and tenderer. I can't wear my original clothes anymore, but it doesn't matter, the money I received now is like flowing water, and I can go to buy new clothes, new decorations, and new brocade robes!

  At the beginning, Xi Ji felt a little awkward, after all, it was uncomfortable and comfortable to pick the bones from the egg, but after a long time, he got used to it. Can't there be bones in eggs? Not only have bones, but also hair! Have eyeballs and feet, have a heart, liver, spleen, stomach and intestines!

   Otherwise, why is it called a hairy egg?

   As for whether these new clothes and decorations were produced in Sanfu, Guanzhong, and northern Sichuan and Sichuan, these people and Xi Ji ignored it.

  『Your Majesty...The defense of Xiapi has already lived and died with the city, and I vowed to surround Xiapi without losing it...If Xiapi can be defended, our army will be greatly stimulated.

  『The general will enter Xiapi in the near future, and he will definitely be able to turn the tide of battle in Xiapi by then...』

  『The general raises 100,000 troops and wants to meet Yu Yang with Jiang Dong’s son. Before the battle, he has already won by three points...』

   After Xi Xi finished speaking, the rest of the people also started talking one after another, waving their long sleeves, as if the Jiangdong Army would be wiped out in ashes in the next moment.

Emperor Liu Xie listened, and nodded a little excitedly. Although he said that he could not go to the battlefield in person to command the fight, hearing these battle reports can also satisfy part of Liu Xie's fantasies. He nodded repeatedly, looked at the map and said: " The memorial issued by the general a few days ago also claimed that the Jiangdong rebellion will be calmed down soon...in fact, I...」

   Liu Xie stopped in the middle of speaking. The surrounding "Ai Qing" waited respectfully, as if they were willing to wait forever.

  『Actually, I don’t want to see this...』 Liu Xie sighed, "Aren’t they all big men and people who are fighting here and there? What exactly are these people trying to do? When I think of how many people have been displaced during the war, my heart...is hard to calm down...』

  『Your Majesty is holy! 』

  『The great man wins the emperor like this, and the people also have great blessings! 』

  『Your Majesty is unparalleled in virtue and virtue, comparable to Yao and Shun alive! 』

  『…』

   Messy compliments.

  Amidst these boasting sounds, Liu Xie shook his head. I don't know if it's because I'm a little dizzy from being boasted, or I've already fallen in love with the sound of boasting...

There are often educators and scholars in later generations who argue endlessly about whether they should appreciate education or criticize it, whether they should adopt strict education or encouraging education. They can even cite ten thousand examples to blame each other for their mistakes, but most In most cases, when these experts debate or criticize each other's positions, they forget or deliberately forget a major premise, which is "education".

No matter which method is used, in the final analysis it falls on "education", and strictness and encouragement are just means and methods, just like food is to make people full and make people grow. Some people like to eat sweets, while others like to eat Salty, too much sweet food is prone to diabetes, and too much salty food is prone to high blood pressure, so basically, anyone with a little brain knows that no one eats only one flavor from childhood to adulthood...

  There are many flavors in life, so there can be no one way of education.

Eating is a matter between the eater and the cook, and education is also a matter between the educator and the educated. It is just to listen to what others say is good to eat, and to eat a single food all the time. Will eat the dead.

   No matter whether the meal is sweet or salty, if it is too much, it is definitely not good.

  As for why some people must be bragging about a certain method, a certain taste of food is so good, so good, so good, it’s like a panacea, and you can become a fairy once you eat it? Then it depends on whether he is selling that meal...

Just like now, Xiji will occasionally insert a few words about the benefits of the general, and compare it with the bad governance of the general Hussars, forming a general where Guangwei is good at everything, and the general Hussars is in dire straits. Poor description, anyway, if you say so, you will get money, you only need to move your lips, and feel free and easy, wouldn't you be a fool if you don't do it?

  Speaking of the bad government of Huqi, Liu Xie couldn't help but frowned.

Although Liu Xie is concerned about the battle of Qingxu, it is obvious that he has no way to go to the battlefield to see it in person, so he can only listen to the voices of certain parties to convey and relay, and in the process, even Liu Xie has a choice , but he will still inevitably fall into the information cocoon.

   It's like Liu Xie's information about Fei Qian.

  Liu Xie's impression of Fei Qian has always been pretty good.

  Liu Xie still remembers that Fei Qian took him to Yinshan Mountain, saw the desert, climbed the mountains, and passed the Dachuan. Having eaten farm food and drank military water, that was a life that Liu Xie had never experienced before. It was like taking Liu Xie out of the original confinement circle and into a brand new world.

  However, the new world is not all smooth sailing, nor can everything one wishes come true.

  Those outside the comfort zone are somewhat miserable.

  The bitter and hard to swallow mush, the surprised and scrutinizing eyes of the farmer, the biting cold wind in the wild, the pain in the whole body caused by the long journey...

  After the exciting period, it soon entered the refractory period, and then fell into the exhaustion period.

  It’s like saying that I’m going to a snowy area once in my life to see the blue sky and green grass, but when I really want to leave the warm nest and the home I’m used to, I hesitate...

   Obviously, no vows or willpower is enough to smooth out this huge gap in life, at least for Liu Xie, no. Liu Xie is used to being greeted with nodding and bowing every day, he is used to not needing to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation, he is used to being stable, he is used to being high above the ground, he is used to staying in a place where the wind and rain can't hit him, and trivial matters can't bother him.

  I left, but I missed him a little.

   After all, if you can't get it, you will be particularly concerned about it.

  But after all, the distance is far away now.

   How many flying swallows in the world are because of long-distance relationships? I want a warm hug, and there is only a shovel waving next to me. When my stomach hurts, there is only a sentence in the distance to drink more hot water, but there is a prepared Siwu soup nearby, and there are clever people like Xiji from time to time. Describe it Evil at a distance, good at near.

  The so-called "evil government" of the hussars is really "evil", and the people in Sansuke are so miserable every day? Obviously, there is no absolutely perfect system in the world, and of course it is impossible for all people under the system to be absolutely comfortable and happy.

In Cao Cao's place, the most comfortable are the sons of the gentry, such as people like Chi Chi, but on the side of Huqi, Chi Chi is not very popular, so in this hall, the so-called "people" are in the Here and there, the groups referred to are fundamentally different.

  Liu Xie's nostalgia for Fei Qian only lasted for a moment, and then he quickly refocused on the current Qingxu battle.

   Well, I hear you.

   Liu Xie stood in front of the battle map with his hands behind his back, as if he had become the commander of this battle, or the master of the battlefield. He deduced and speculated, trying to use limited information to make a judgment on the future of the battlefield.

  This is not the first time Liu Xie has done this kind of thing...

Moreover, the number and scale of participants in this "seminar" or "evaluation meeting" of the Qingxu Campaign is also increasing. To a certain extent, it actually represents a meaning that Liu Xie wants to express. A message sent out.

   As for whether this information is what others want, or whether it can be passed on, this is the next question...

  The key to Qingxu is actually not a place like Xiapi, but the Chen family in this place.

  Xiapi and Guangling belong to the "Land of Huawai" to some extent.

  From the time of Tao Qian, the old man Tao has been unable to control Guangling prefect, he can only watch Guangling prefect Hong Xing go out of the wall and wander to Suanzao.

Later, Cao Cao laughed and asked Chen Deng to be the prefect of Guangling. Maybe he didn't want to take advantage of Jiangdong to engage the Chen family, or to use the Chen family to engage Jiangdong. Anyway, he only needed to let the Chen family and the Sun family fencing It's such a joy, it would be the best if both sides can be hurt and both chrysanthemums can be disabled.

   It’s just that Chen Deng was too sharp, and Sun Shiwan’s climaxes were caused by two or three hits. Then, seeing that Guangling was about to be picked up by Chen Deng and become the second xiapi, Boss Cao couldn’t sit still...

   Immediately Chen Deng became the prefect of Dongcheng, and then died the next year. Sun Shiwan felt that there was an opportunity to take advantage of it. He repeatedly winked at the Chen family and the Taishan army, brandished a shovel and a hoe, and started digging the wall.

  Sun Quan’s political promises, money temptations, and all kinds of sweet words to the Chen family are not very effective. To put it simply, except for those Bai Fumei who live in movies and TV shows, most of them still pay attention to the right family.

  What Sun Quan can give, the Chen family does not lack.

  Even what the Chen family has, Sun Quan can’t afford it!

This is of course meaningless. There are at most one or two people who can eat enough with sweet words. After all, there are so many clansmen behind the Chen family, and a large family has to live, so we can't just say a few words because of Sun Quan. Good words, forget about the parents and clansmen?

  In Chen's eyes, Sun Quan is worse than Cao Cao.

   After all, Cao Cao wanted to give Chen a bag or something, and Cao Cao had the final say. What can Sun Quan offer? Even if Sun Quan wanted to buy a new pair of pants, he had to go through several inspections...

  But in the eyes of different people, the situation is different.

  The Chen family dismissed it, and Chang Xi felt like a treasure.

  In fact, not only Changxi, but also Sun Quan sent people to contact Taishan Army.

  Whether there are fish or not, let’s get a net to catch it first...

  Sun Quan wants to become One Piece, and most of the Taishan people are not bad, they know that the current state is the most beneficial for the Taishan army, as long as the Taishan army can stand between Qing and Xu, as long as there is a threat from the Jiangdong army, they can get a lot of preferential treatment. A good One Piece is doing a good job, and he will not take refuge in the past just because of Sun Quan's few words. No matter how nice Sun Quan's words are, in fact, after the past, he will become a laundry, cooking and mopping the floor for Sun Quan, a cow and a horse, and be ridden by Sun Quan play.

   After Man Chong went deep into Qingxu, he also gave two secret performances, and selectively picked some situations to report. Although it was superficial, he also vaguely pointed out the problems.

Of course, it is impossible for Man Chong to go into great detail. On the one hand, Man Chong has not caught any concrete and substantive things, and there is no video or audio that can be produced as evidence; Li is relatively inclined to Cao Cao, but Man Chong can't guarantee whether Yin Li will be faking it, and the memorial he delivered has to go through Qing Xu...

   But with such ambiguous, even cryptic words, Lao Cao is so shrewd. With almost no effort, he found out the few hairs that Sun Quan lost in the Man Chong Memorial.

The Chen family has not been operating in Xuzhou for a year or two. Basically, the surname is Chen in Xiapi. Generally speaking, the old Cao classmates can’t move the people here. The value of its existence is that it can contain the Taishan Army on the one hand, On the other hand, it can defend Jiangdong.

  The existence of Taishan Army is similar to this.

  But not everyone can break away from the cocoon of information and observe this issue from a higher perspective, especially for those who are involved in the incident.

  Taishan Army is in such an information cocoon.

Maybe there is a better, more subtle way of micromanipulation that can even be praised for thousands of years, and then you can swing your butt, twist your waist, and outline a coquettish posture between Cao Cao, Jiangdong, and Xiapi Chen , get the maximum benefit with ease.

  But if these leaders of the Taishan Army know how to do this, maybe they are not just Taishan thieves in history...

  So with them, struggling in the blood.

  In spring, the rain will bring hope to farmers, but it will bring despair to both soldiers and soldiers in battle.

  Especially the offensive side.

   And it is also the attacker of the siege.

When the golden clang finally sounded, many Taishan troops who attacked the city withdrew from the front line, listless and embarrassed, as if crawling out of hell, there was no sigh of relief, only endless exhaustion .

  Another round of attack failed.

  Donghai Government Office, Tan County.

  Changxi's base camp.

   Outside the city of Tan County, high mounds of soil have already been built. No matter day or night, the peasants captured by Siye are struggling to stand in the muddy water, piling up the soil higher and higher.

   It is best to pile it directly on the opposite wall.

  In the muddy water, there are corpses everywhere.

   There are Taishan Army, and of course more are the people of Donghai County. In spring, the temperature is not high. Even a healthy man, if he works in the open air under such weather, undertakes heavy physical labor, and has high-intensity mental oppression, plus does not have enough rest and food. With enough supplies, it is hard to survive for three days!

Some people were digging the mud, and when they were digging, they would chirp and fall to the ground, unable to get up again. However, the soldiers of the Taishan Army who were in charge of overseeing the work would at most come up and throw their wooden shovels to the next one. Civil husband.

  The Cao army under Cao Cao's command seemed to be unable to see these corpses.

  Is Donghai considered Cao Cao's territory?

   Count, count again.

  Even if Cao Cao extended grace and mercy to the people of Donghai County, would it be possible that the people of Donghai would be grateful to Cao Cao and guide a secret passage into Tan County?

   Obviously impossible.

  Cao Cao is not a fool. When he ordered to raise the butcher knife against Xuzhou, he had already anticipated these problems. These people in Xuzhou don't agree with him. Yes, these people in the East China Sea, ordinary people are innocent, but in this world, can the word "innocent" alone be immune to harm, and then smooth the world?

  Tan County is not too big. There are two waters on the left and right, one is Mushui and the other is Yishui. Tan County is in the middle of the two waters. Therefore, if you want to continue going south, you must first get through Tan County.

  Under the city wall of Tan County, the tragedy was several times more miserable than the place where the mound was!

  The continuous days of spring rain, coupled with the fact that Tan County's city defenses were not considered strong, had already fallen apart under repeated attacks. Although these breaches were blocked by the defenders with wood and stones, they looked like they would collapse at any time. Due to the rain, the water level of the ditches around Tanxian County also skyrocketed, and the suspension bridge was also damaged, but several places have been filled with straw bags and become passages that can be attacked. Around the passage, and inside the trench, there were layers of corpses.

At the moment, another attack failed. When the Taishan army retreated, all those who could move were also withdrawn. However, there were still some wounded in the battlefield who were not completely dead for a while, just tossing and crying in the muddy water, or It was calling for mother, or just moaning meaninglessly, but no one came up to help, let alone rescue.

  Because everyone knows that if you are seriously injured in such a situation, and dirt enters the wound, even if you don't die temporarily, you won't live for a few days, so why bother? At present, in the Han Dynasty, in the feudal dynasty, the lives of these ordinary people are so worthless, let alone worthy of pity.
