Chapter 37: Zhiyao stole the achievements of others
Confucianism may not have been suitable for the age of great strife when it was first founded. It would be too much to say that it was useless!
According to Zhiyao's knowledge, not only was Confucius a very good fighter, but many of his disciples could also fight. In other words, Confucianism, which has not been "formed" for the time being, is not the kind of hands-free kind that existed during the Song, Ming, and Qing dynasties.
The appearance of chicken power.
Another point is that around the time Emperor Ming of the Western Han Dynasty began to make extensive use of Confucian disciples, disciples of many Confucian sects not only studied, but also learned martial arts, and could basically distinguish between grains and grains.
After Confucianism evolved into Confucianism, the quality of disciples began to decline off a cliff. Once there were one or two Confucian disciples who had achieved something, they needed to be praised to death.
In line with the fact that the rarer the worldly truth is, the more it needs special promotion, it simply proves that more Confucian disciples are useless.
By the time Confucianism evolved into Confucianism, telling the truth "Confucianism" had become a burden and no longer had much positive value.
"Those are not the faults that Confucius should bear. They were all caused by the great Confucians in the past dynasties who were qualified to 'commentary' on scriptures. Don't think that Confucius is a bastard just because Confucianism eventually evolved into Confucianism!" Zhiyao knew this very well.
It's one o'clock.
What is that "annotation of scriptures"? It means the right to teach and interpret some Confucian classics, which non-"great Confucians" cannot hold.
Wherever there are people, there will be rivers and lakes, and where there are rivers and lakes, there will inevitably be competition for interests. In order to ensure that their own interests last forever, the vested interests who have the right to speak will definitely modify the rules, gradually changing everything.
"Zu Yao, please go to 'Li'." Zhiyao took the initiative to find Zhisong one day and made such a request.
This "Li②" is located to the west of Taihang Mountain, very close to "Hukou".
The civil war in the Jin Kingdom has not yet completely ended. A large number of cities belonging to the Fan family, Zhonghang family, Handan family and some small and medium-sized nobles who disappeared in the war have been redivided.
The Zhi family suffered little loss in this civil war, but gained a lot, including taking over all the cities of the Fan family in the central and northern parts of the country and all the cities of the Zhongxing family in the central part; in the western part of the Jin State, the Zhi family
The Fan family also obtained part of the cities in Hexi, and the Yiluo land belonging to the Zhongxing family was fully taken over.
In terms of "expansion of territory" alone, the Zhi family's territory expansion was the most rapid after a wave of civil war. What is more realistic is that the territories acquired were not well-developed places.
More lands that had been cultivated and completed for farming were divided between the Zhao family and the Wei family. As the younger brother of the Zhao family, the Han family subsequently gained some benefits.
Does the Han family, which received relatively few benefits, have any complaints? They lost nearly two "divisions" in the civil war, but the number of new cities was the fewest among the existing high-ranking families. Due to their poor performance in the civil war,
If you have any complaints, just talk about them behind closed doors.
The war is over for the time being, but there is still some resistance from the various families taking over the cities. I don't know how long it will take for the Jin Kingdom to regain stability.
"Song, Zheng, Wei, and Lu successively rebelled against me, and the princes allied themselves with a large army to occupy Henan." Zhisong felt that the internal strife was not over, and foreign enemies were coming again, and he was a little exhausted.
Yes, Jin's hegemonic position was already on the brink of collapse, and the countries in the Central Plains had long been showing that they had been suffering from Jin for a long time.
Then a civil war broke out in the Jin State. When the princes saw the opportunity to get rid of the Jin State, how could they not seize the opportunity?
This time, Qi was the initiator. They successively invited Zheng, Song and Wei to intervene in Jin's civil war. Zheng responded without hesitation, while Song, Wei and Lu hesitated for more than a year before agreeing.
Qi State's invitation to the alliance.
Zhizhuo said: "There are constant resistance in various places, and the Zhao, Wei, and Han families have no troops to send out."
Zhiyao said: "So, Zhongjun Zuo still does not change his ambition to destroy the Fan family and the Zhongxing family?"
Zhizhuang gets angry when talking about this!
It was clear that Shi Jishe and Zhongxing Yin had already admitted defeat and accepted the fate of Fan and Zhongxing being weakened. The problem was that Zhao Yang wanted to completely kill Fan and Zhongxing, and not only allowed the cities of Fan and Zhongxing to resist resolutely
, and also gave foreign countries the opportunity to intervene.
Currently, Zhong Xingyin and Shi Jishe are in Weiguo. They have contacted people sent by Qi Jun Chujiu, and a huge anti-Jin alliance is about to take shape.
"The current situation is not entirely Zhao Yang's fault. The monarch and...grandfather, including the rest of the people in power, are all responsible." Zhiyao thought to herself.
During the time when Zhiyao was out leading the troops in battle, Zhishuo, the leader of the Zhi clan, made some risqué moves.
Bewitched by Liang Ying's father, a retainer of the Zhonghang clan, Zhishuo agreed with the monarch and executed Dong Anyu, Zhao Yang's chief adviser.
Later, Zhizong repeatedly stated that Shigaoyi and Zhongxingqi could take over the Fan family and Zhongxing family, and that the Zhao family should not kill them all, so that the relationship between the Zhi family and the Zhao family became a bit bad.
Zhiyao knows very well the principle of "if the hair is gone, the skin will be attached".
If the Jin State failed completely, how could the Zhi family still dominate? Only with the strength of the Jin State could they suppress other countries and obtain benefits, right?
The Fan family and the Zhongxing family were high-ranking families in the Jin State, and they also had a high reputation in other countries.
This time Qi Junchujiu organized an anti-Jin alliance, to a certain extent, he borrowed the prestige of the Fan family and the Zhongxing family in other countries.
"Ji Qin and Gao Qiang are entrenched in 'Mo', and they have three 'divisions' under their command." Zhi Shuo looked at Zhi Yao with questioning eyes, wondering if he should go to 'Li' in this chaotic situation?
Who are those two people? Qin is a retainer of the Fan family, and Gao Qiang is a retainer of the Zhongxing family. The rare thing is that they are the kind who are good at conquering and fighting.
What is the current situation? The overall situation has been decided. However, as Zhao Yang decided to completely destroy the Fan family and the Zhonghang family, which caused the Fan family and the Zhonghang family to collude with foreign forces, Shijishe and Zhongxing Yin may become "
The "Leading the Road Party" counterattacked and returned home.
In addition, because the Zhi family took over the cities of the Fan family and the Zhongxing family very smoothly, the monarchs, Zhao Yang, Wei Chi and Han Buxin believed that Zhi Shuang was the "traitor who came out of the country", and the factors that prevented him from taking action could not occur.
Therefore, they may have had discussions or had a good tacit understanding, and unanimously asked the Zhi family to gather an army and go south, no matter what, they would defend the anti-Jin coalition forces from outside the country.
Of course, in order to reassure the Zhi family, the Zhao family, the Wei family and the Han family will once again mobilize their forces to attack the Qin and Gao Qiang troops of "Mo".
"My grandfather's reputation is completely ruined. Not only is he nicknamed a coward, but he will also be called a traitor if he is not careful. I just want to farm and invent with peace of mind, but why is it so difficult?" Zhiyao had previously heard about the news.
It doesn't make sense. I didn't expect the situation to be so bad. After hearing the situation, I knew that I still wouldn't have a peaceful life for the time being.
Zhiyao asked: "How many troops can my family recruit?"
Zhizong didn't even think about it and replied: "We can send out two more 'armies'. However...the combat effectiveness may not be good."
What!?
The old Zhi family was able to recruit two legions? This surprised Zhiyao!
However, when you think about it, it's not that surprising.
Zhao can also recruit two or three legions, and he can also recruit four legions regardless of quality.
Zhiyao thought for a while and said: "If the Lord gives Yao arbitrary power, it will be easy to defeat the coalition army!"
Not bragging.
At present, Zhiyao has gained his own prestige in Lao Zhi's family. At the same time, Zhi Xuwu and Cheng Shuo are helping each other, and they can also borrow Zilu from Confucius for use.
"The team is getting older day by day. I can't just let them work hard. I must give them promotion channels. If they can't get national military honors, why can't I also get internal rewards and punishments?" What Zhiyao doesn't know is that if he does this, he will
Zhao Yang did what he had to do after being forced into a hurry.
What would Zhao Yang do? After he was completely cornered, he used his family's cities and official positions to reward meritorious people, with the intention of motivating his subordinates to fight hard.
The original history took place in the "War of Iron". Zhao Yang's speech of swearing an oath became a model for later generations of military strategists. Shang Yang even made Zhao Yang's system of rewarding morale into a system as the national law of the Qin State, which became the law of the middle and late Warring States Period.
The spiritual pillar of Qin's strong military power was the "military meritocracy" system.
Zhiyao was not pushed into a hurry by anyone, he just wanted to seize the opportunity to shape the centripetal force and enterprising spirit within the Zhi family, and then build up a strong sense of belonging!
