"Children's songs are called nursery rhymes because they come from their own hearts and cannot be taught by others." [Danqian Zonglu·Volume 25]
"The words of a child in Lu are not trustworthy." Guan Jing frowned and approached to persuade him: "The prince is someone who wants to build great achievements. How can he pay more attention to such rumors?"
"I don't know the long history." Gongsun Zan's sworn brother, fortune teller Liu Weitai glanced at Guan Jing lightly and said: "There is a nursery rhyme in his "Zuo Zhuan" that says: 'In the morning of Bing, the dragon's tail lies in the sky.
', It should be at the turn of September and October that the marquis of Jin besieged Shangyang, and then conquered it. Nursery rhymes are like prophecies, star magic, and refer to the way of heaven. How can it be described in children's words? "
"That's right." The speaker was Li Yizi, who made a living by selling silk in Youzhou. He had a rich family, but was underestimated because of his low status. Later, he and three other people including the diviner Liu Weitai, Jia Renle Hedang, and Gongsun Zan
They made an oath of brotherhood, married each other's children, and had a close relationship. Only then did they become Gongsun Zan's guest, and they were not afraid of Guan Jing and other scholars: "What Guan Changshi said is too biased."
"But I don't know what Liu Jun thinks this rumor has a profound meaning?" Guan Jing could not stand these arrogant and mediocre people who were favored. At this time, his face suddenly became serious and he asked coldly.
"Yannan border, Zhaobeiji, this is the land of Yan and Zhao. Between Dukang and Dukang, there is a place that is enough to escape from the world and wait for the changes in the world." Prophecy and magic are Liu Weitai's strengths. It is rare for him to be able to use his momentum in this area.
The superior officer passed Guan Jing and said arrogantly: "In my opinion, this place refers to Yi Jing. This place is adjacent to the Yi River and connected to the Liao Sea. There are majestic mountains in the north for danger and plains in the south for galloping. The kings and princes are based here,
It is precisely by advancing that you can conquer the world, and by retreating you can protect your foundation."
"This is not unreasonable." Seeing Guan Jing's disapproval, Gongsun Zan said: "The most important thing now is the south. If you want to capture Jizhou, Yijing is the top priority. As long as the army is stationed in Yijing, you can
The whole territory of Youzhou is protected and it is convenient to go south, and what the nursery rhyme says is just right, how can we not say that it is implicitly revealed by destiny?"
Guan Jing thought about it and felt that it was reasonable to say so. Yijing is a strategic location. If all the troops can be gathered here, it will be easier to mobilize and dispatch in the future to deal with the powerful Yuan Shao. But in this way, it is inevitable
There is a risk of strong trunks and weak branches, causing emptiness in the rear. After he expressed this concern, Gongsun Zan waved his hands disapprovingly and said:
"I have thought about it before, but Youzhou is adjacent to the sea to the east, and Gongsundu of Liaodong and I have the same surname and are friendly to each other; there are mountains to the north, and Wuwan and other tribes have long been afraid of the power of our army; as for Daijun in the west, although they are adjacent to each other,
Bingzhou, but Liu Yu is not good at military affairs, and the court relies heavily on me to check and balance Yuan Shao, so there is no need to worry."
Guan Jing didn't have any superb strategies. Almost all of their strategies were proposed by the lord Gongsun Zan. Now that the lord has made the decision, even though he attached it to a nursery rhyme with unclear meaning, Guan Jing can't come up with any more strategies.
It was a good decision, so I had to hand it over and say, "I promise."
Liu Weitai seemed to have won a move and looked at Guan Jing triumphantly, but Guan Jing turned a deaf ear.
So Gongsun Zan immediately issued an order, ordering Guan Jing to inform the governors of Zhuojun, Yuyang, Youbeiping, Guangyang and other counties to prepare grain and grass at all costs and store them in Yijing. With Wen Shu as a warning, the governors of Youzhou counties remained silent.
, some of them were close associates promoted by Gongsun Zan, while others did not have the integrity of Wen Shu, and under high pressure, they exploited the powerful and common people in the county.
When Gongsun Zan saw this, he felt more and more that he was doing the right thing by killing the chicken to scare the monkeys. If you don't give him some color, those scholars will continue to put on airs in front of you. Thinking like this, he put aside the consequences of the accidents between the Wen family and the Lu family.
Negative effects were deliberately ignored.
After the first time, there will naturally be a second time. Gongsun Zan forgets his mistakes and his nature of seeking retribution is completely exposed. In the past, Gongsun Zan would still be somewhat afraid of those scholars in the state who were highly virtuous and prestigious and whose reputation was greater than his own. Now, as long as
They had a complaint and often used harsh methods to harm them. For example, Sun Jin, the former Prime Minister of Changshan who was friends with Liu Yu, cursed Gongsun Zan at home and abandoned the market immediately after being accused. There were also Daijun Chengxu, Yuyang Zhang Zan and others.
They were also killed for various reasons.
Gongsun Zan naturally understood the disadvantages of this. For this reason, he specially transferred the well-dressed disciples to remote places where there was poverty and poverty. He also vigorously promoted traders, poor families, knights and other people. His sworn brothers Liu Weitai, Le Hedang and others were even more fond of him.
He was highly used and acted as a thug to invade the people.
In this way, the disadvantage was that the people were alienated and everyone was resentful. The advantage was that all the opposition forces in Youzhou were suppressed in a short period of time and nearly three million hu of grain were collected.
"Look, they said before that they couldn't get enough, but I think they are unwilling to contribute at all! Now everyone is working hard, don't they just raise the grain and grain?" Gongsun Zan stood on the tall building in Yijing,
Looking down at the long queue of grain transporters at the entrance of the granary not far away, I felt very proud.
While working in the government, Fan Fang, who was born in the Fan family of Daijun, could no longer bear it. Regardless of Guan Jing's repeated instructions, he asked: "The princes look down on the talented children, respect the unscrupulous people in the village, and I am shallow.
I really don’t know why!”
"Don't you understand?" Gongsun Zan held the hilt of the sword with one hand, looked at him and said with a smile: "If you use them and treat them as high officials, they will all think that they deserve it, and they will not be grateful to me for giving them the salary.
If the promotion is small, it will be different. They will be more grateful and serve me wholeheartedly."
The superior's way of employing people can only be done, not said. Gongsun Zan spoke unabashedly and violated the axiom of employing people on their own merits, which made Fan Fang extremely angry. Fan Fang immediately turned cold, threw up his sleeves and left. He was the first to follow Gongsun Zan.
A group of people were ordered by Gongsun Zan to go to Yanzhou to fight. Now even he couldn't bear it. It would undoubtedly cause turmoil. Guan Jing looked at Gongsun Zan worriedly and said: "Why do you have to do this..."
"Ignore him!" Gongsun Zan waved his hand and said decisively: "I plan to open a farm in Yijing to support the army. What do you think?"
Guan Jing looked at Gongsun Zan with a complicated expression, suddenly he didn't recognize him.
Many of the guests took up their posts and left on the second day. Gongsun Zan didn't care about these clumsy and arrogant staff and let them come and go. Soon, only Guan Jing and other old people were left around him.
"Report!" A scout quickly climbed up the high building and shouted loudly: "The Lord of Yuyang Zou Mansion reported military information to the Lord. Yan Rou of Yan State lured Saibei Wuwan, Xianbei and other tribes, gathered 30,000 troops, and captured Yuyang.
Yang, Anle and other counties. The ruler of Fuyang joins Yuyang and the two counties of Beiping on the right. He has only a few thousand county soldiers under his command. Now he has retreated to Lu County. I hope the prince will send reinforcements early!"
Lu County is the eastern gateway to Ji County in Youzhou Prefecture. Once the city is destroyed, the three counties of Yuyang, Guangyang and Youbeiping will be lost. Shanggu and Dai County are adjacent to Saibei and will also be unstable. This is the time when people are panicking.
If you are not careful, Gongsun Zan will lose the entire Youzhou!
Gongsun Zan had sworn to judge Xianbei earlier, and Wuhuan was so beaten by him that he did not dare to covet Youzhou again. Now he was slapped in the face and kicked into the house, which made Gongsun Zan's face turn black and ugly.ntent
