MTL - Three Kingdoms-Chapter 2691 Total North-South Pang Shi Yuan

  Chapter 2691 North and South Total Pang Shiyuan

  Jingzhou.

  Xiangyang.

  Cao Ren has some headaches.

As a general, even if he can't be shortlisted for the first-class ranks, he is still very close to the first-class group, especially in defense, which can be said to be extremely good. He has been able to stick to one side in several battles, even in isolated situations. The stability of the soldiers can still be maintained until the army of Cao Cao's headquarters turns around.

  But no one is perfect, Cao Ren is not perfect in terms of civil affairs, it can only be said that he is too bad.

Because of the very complicated gentry system in Jingzhou, it is impossible for Cao Ren to delegate the people's livelihood and government affairs to other Jingzhou gentry children, especially the Cai family and the Kuai family. However, Cao Ren also cannot do without Cai Kuai, so the formation of A very interesting situation.

The people who handle the affairs are from the Cai family and the Kuai family, but there are many "supervisors". Well, yes, since there were civil servants and eunuchs in the later feudal dynasties who served as supervisors, naturally there are also Cao's children to serve as "supervisors". .

Of course, the job titles of these people are not "supervisors", but XX Lang, or XX Congcao, or simply the officials of the General's Mansion, etc., but basically the work they do is the same, Attempt to use the Cao family as the core to maintain the security of local government affairs. The obvious problem is that, although relative security can be guaranteed to a certain extent, like most systems that adopt this kind of supervision system, or even the monitoring system, it is very easy for laymen to guide experts, or even laymen and experts to deliberately confront each other. Case.

  So people's livelihood and political affairs became more and more chaotic.

  Cao Ren had a headache, and he had to pretend that he didn't have a headache.

  Cao's children don't understand civil affairs, so they did cause a lot of trouble at the beginning.

  Originally, when there is a problem, it should be discussed as it stands, and then it should be dealt with if it should be dealt with, punished if it should be punished, and punished if it should be punished, right?

   But in reality it is not.

  Because these "supervisors" of the Cao family are members of the Cao family.

  So how can the members of the Cao family deal with it at will?

So instead of going through the external trial at all, they went directly to the internal review process. Naturally, most of the big things were turned into small things. For many "supervisors" of the Cao family who obviously made things happen, they turned a blind eye in the end. Just close one eye and forget about it, after all, these "supervisors" are also "dare to take responsibility and have the courage to take responsibility", don't they? He is really willing to do things for the Cao family, even if he really accidentally made a mistake, or went out of line, it is not a bad thing, at least it is better than those who have "divergent intentions", isn't it? ?

If the problem is too big and the public grievances are too strong, they will be temporarily dismissed, and then avoid the limelight and change places, or simply go through the process internally. work.

  Cao Ren did this, on the one hand, he was helpless, after all, he didn't have many people under his command. There are fewer people available on Cao Cao's side, let alone Cao Ren's here? It's not that the total number of officials is small, but that there are few loyal and loyal people who really belong to Cao Ren.

  If you don’t protect these "loyal" people, who will do things for Cao Cao and Cao Ren next time?

   So here comes the problem.

   Many of the original Jingzhou officials learned to be good after suffering one or two losses. They either pushed or unloaded, dragged or kicked, did more and made more mistakes, and did less and made fewer mistakes. Is there still a need to choose what to do?

The accumulated government affairs of the people's livelihood cannot be dealt with, and those that can be dealt with are not dealt with. Repeated approval, repeated declarations, and repeated confirmations can delay things in spring until winter. Seeing that it is almost the next spring, they simply throw them away. Anyway, it has been delayed for a year, and it is not bad to delay the second year...

  Under such circumstances, Jingzhou is showing a more and more rotten situation, and the chaotic scene is even worse than the previous Liu Biao period.

   Fortunately, Jiangdong was too busy to take care of himself, and he didn't have the heart to attack Jingbei. Otherwise, under the situation of growing public grievances, another war broke out in Jingzhou, and no one can be sure about the outcome.

  However, in the past few days, there has been a good news and a not-so-bad news, which has somewhat diverted the attention of the people in Jingzhou.

  The good news is that Cao Chun, a general who seems to have failed to achieve much after arriving in Youzhou, sent troops to conquer Wuhuan a while ago, and made great contributions and gained a lot of gains! It not only pacified the Youbei frontier for the great Han, but also obtained the extremely scarce war horse resources of the Cao Cao regime!

  Another thing that is not bad is that the Emperor Liu Xie will hold a celebration for this Youbei victory, and invite the elders and nobles from the surrounding states and counties to Xu County to participate in the celebration...

  After these two news came, everyone in Jingzhou immediately started discussing.

  Some people watch the excitement, and naturally some people watch the doorway.

After Jingzhou was blood drawn by Cao Cao, all the systems in the Jiangling area in the south of Jingzhou completely collapsed. For Cao Cao, he was extremely frustrated and disappointed, just like Kuai.

  『What kind of **** celebration, such a big man, only a hussar, what other dare to call a hero? ! Just this point of merit, I am ashamed to show it off! It's a joke! 』Kuai Yue flicked his sleeves.

  For ordinary people, it may be a good thing for the emperor to hold a celebration after the great Han has won the victory, but for Kuai Yue, this is not the case.

It’s not that Kuai Yue is really dissatisfied with the emperor Liu Xie, it’s just that the south of Jingzhou has been too difficult for a while, and the base of the Kuai family is in the south of Jingzhou, even if they get what they want now , really began to control a part of Jiangling in the south of Jingzhou, which is not as good as Liu Biao's previous heyday!

  Because of the constraints of "Jianmin", Jingnan's recovery and development, I don't know how long it will take!

  『Speak carefully! 』Kuai Liang frowned.

  『Let’s talk about it at home, what’s the matter? Kuai Yue was dissatisfied, but he did not ridicule the emperor Liu Xie's celebration anymore, but changed the subject and said, "Brother, have you heard what happened in Linjiang County a few days ago?" 』

  『…』 Kuai Liang was silent.

   Kuai Yue gritted his teeth and said, "Qiu Fu! The time has not yet come, so we must set the quota first! The county magistrate of Linjiang County just said a word, saying that Linjiang suffered a disaster and was afraid of completing it, but he was taken off his official hat on the spot and thrown directly into prison! Well, now they are still declaring that it is necessary to use extraordinary methods, exert extraordinary efforts, do extraordinary things, and make extraordinary achievements! It would be better to demolish the house for three thousand dollars than pay a bucket less! Hanging yourself to a rope, and refusing to give you a knife, you would rather die than hundreds of families, and never be short of food and grass in autumn! Listen, what is this called? ! 』

   Kuai Liang remained silent.

   This matter, in fact, Kuailiang Kuaiyue and the others also did it, but a squire like Kuai would be relatively subtle, not so simple and rude, at least not as unscrupulous as the "Jianmin" did.

Kuai Liang didn't think that these "supervisors" did a good job, but Kuai Liang wondered if Cao Ren sent them here to test Kuai's obedience and intentionally provoke some relations. In extreme cases, what would you do?

   Kuai Liang felt a little guilty.

  After all, the Kuai family is actually doing some things secretly...

"correct! ’ Kuai Yue suddenly rolled his eyes, “Why don’t we take advantage of it…”

"Shut up! ’ Kuai Liang glared at Kuai Yue, ‘Are you going to bring trouble on Mrs. Kuai? 』

   Of course Kuai Liang knew what Kuai Yue was thinking, after all, he was his brother, so he was too familiar with him. It can be said that Kuai Yue pouted his ass, and Kuai Liang knew where the chrysanthemums were blooming, so Kuai Liang immediately interrupted Kuai Yue's words. After all, it is not a very safe area now, and there are some idle people around, complaining and complaining If it is, there will be no problem, but it will be a big problem if someone stabs Cao Ren to plan something.

  『Now is a time of crisis, we should work together to take care of the overall situation. Kuai Liang said in a deep voice, "As for the imperial court, we are not in the position, don't care about it, and don't participate..."

  『…』 Kuai Yue frowned, then pondered for a while, 『Understood. 』

"Understood? 』Kuai Liang glanced at Kuai Yue, "Then go, live well, do things..."

  …(oω`o)…

  In fact, Kuai Liang wronged Cao Ren.

  Cao Ren doesn't bother to spy on Mrs. Kuai now...

  Cao Ren couldn't care less.

   Or I can’t take care of it for the time being.

  What happened in Linjiang County was nothing more than a few "supervisors" holding Cao Ren's bird feathers as arrows.

The specific situation is that the Jiangling area in the south of Jingzhou does have economic problems and needs to be restored and developed. Bargaining means bargaining more, but for the officials of the "Jianmin", they don't care about the specific situation. They don't need to be responsible for the gentry and gentry people in the Jiangling area in the south of Jingzhou. They are only responsible for their own official hats!

  Where did the official hat come from?

  Of course they came from Cao Cao and Cao Ren, so they only need to complete the tasks assigned by Cao Cao and Cao Ren. As for the life and death in the south of Jingzhou and the suffering of the people, what have they to do?

  They don’t plan to work in the Jiangling area in the south of Jingzhou for the rest of their lives. If they do well, they will be promoted.

  The guys in the Jiangling area of ​​Jingzhou have also done a little too much. They have already reduced or exempted taxes for a long time under the pretext of suffering from disasters.

Under such circumstances, some "smart" "prisoners" feel that they have found an opportunity, just like selling shoes to islanders who don't wear shoes on a deserted island. Did you prove that you are capable?

  So this "supervisor" really dared to give the "death" order.

  Anyway, it is not these "prisoners" who are going to die, but the "prisoners" who want others to die, so why dare not give orders?

  So under such circumstances, will the country gentry suffer?

   Although the country gentry are a bit troublesome, they don't think it's so hard. Because they have many paths, they can still afford to hide if they can’t be provoked, but those ordinary people who have no way to go will be unlucky...

  Anyway, for ordinary farmers, Qianshou, they don't understand the political struggles and interest competitions at the top. Anyway, it is the lowest class people who suffer and suffer.

  Whether it is the Kuai family or the Cao family, or the Han Dynasty, or the future feudal dynasty, for these people, the most concerned thing is not the life and death of the people, but the taxes paid by the people. Of course, the more people live, the more taxes they pay. There is no feudal dynasty that is really all for the people to live well, and then provides various benefits to the people without requiring the people to pay various taxes, but instead collects high land and property taxes from the gentry and landlord class.

  Cao Ren at the moment is not aware that the "supervisor" he sent has caused him trouble, and his attention is now attracted by another piece of information.

  『Pang Shiyuan arrived in Wancheng? ! ”Cao Ren frowned, “Is this serious? 』

  If Fei Qian is the number one figure in the Guanzhong political group, then Pang Tong is an extremely important core figure even if he is not number two.

   Wancheng is Cao Ren's heart disease.

Although Wancheng announced at a very early time that it would not participate in the struggle for hegemony, would not join any party, and maintained absolute neutrality and free trade, this also made Wancheng's economy develop rapidly and became an important place in Nanyang to replace Xiangyang, Jingzhou. A commercial city, but who can guarantee that Wancheng will always be neutral?

   It's like the establishment of a covenant for the ultimate purpose of breaking the covenant. Now that Wancheng declares neutrality, what will happen if Wancheng suddenly declares that it is not neutral that day? Moreover, Wancheng's position is too important, like a thorn on Cao Ren's back, it will sting from time to time, making Cao Ren feel pain.

  『My nephew heard that Mr. Pang De was seriously ill, and thought that Pang Shiyuan might come back... 』Cao Zhen replied, 『So I sent someone to keep an eye on it, but I didn’t expect to see someone who looked like Pang Shiyuan...』

  『Didn’t confirm in person? ’ Cao Ren asked.

  Cao Zhen shook his head and said: "That's not true... But Pang Shiyuan's figure is very different from others, and he can't do it normally..."

   Simply put, the fat black bird is so recognizable that it is difficult to find a substitute.

   Those who are as dark as Pang Tong are not as fat as him, and those who are as fat as him are not as dark as him.

  Especially in the era when the productivity of the big Han was relatively low, you can still find some fat people among the children of the gentry, but it is really extremely difficult to find them among the people.

  So Cao Zhen’s subordinates said that they saw with their own eyes a dark, ugly and fat man sneaking into Pang’s mansion, and Cao Zhen naturally reacted that Pang Tong had come.

Due to emotion and reason, Mr. Pang De is seriously ill now, and Pang Tong was promoted by Mr. Pang De's forces to stand by his side and took him with him. Then he met Fei Qian in Lushan and made great achievements all the way, so if he hadn't Pang Tong's kindness, can Pang Tong have today? Therefore, it is understandable that Pang Tong came to see Pang Degong for the last time.

  『I heard that Pang Shanmin came back a few days ago...』 Cao Ren stroked his beard and said, "I thought that Pang Shiyuan would not come back... If so, Pang Shanmin came back earlier, in fact, as a cover for Pang Shiyuan? 』

  Cao Zhen didn’t say anything, because he had already expressed his meaning very clearly.

Although it seems a little morally excessive to count Pang Tong while taking advantage of Pang Degong's death, but since the beginning of the collapse of the Spring and Autumn Rituals and music, all kinds of provocative legs have continued, and those who value rules and morals have died early, even The whole family was given away in waves, and among the surviving genes, some "flexible" genes were gradually left.

   Is it a big deal to apologize afterwards...

   Announcement.

  If it doesn’t work, send it twice.

   In-depth review, draw inferences from one instance, and sincerely apologize.

  As for why the two armies are not beheaded when they are at war...

   Isn't there no fighting now?

   What's more, Pang Tong only went to Wancheng, and didn't come to Xiangyang to be an envoy, so no matter how you say it, he doesn't belong to the ranks of this "envoy"!

   And what if, for example, Cao Cao himself, or Fei Qian personally acted as a messenger, went to the enemy's army to see whether the opponent would kill or not?

  But Cao Ren really didn't want to kill Pang Tong, because what Cao Ren wanted more was Wancheng.

   It is not the so-called "neutral" Wancheng, but the complete recovery of Wancheng.

  If Pang Tong can be captured, whether it is forcing Pang Tong to call Kaiwan city defense, or exchanging hostages with Pang Tong and Feiqian, it is a good choice. As for killing Pang Tong, it was just the result with the least benefit.

  『However, there is Huang Hansheng in this Wancheng...』 Cao Ren mentioned this name, but he felt a little headache.

  Under the Hussar General, why are there so many fierce generals?

   Not to mention the soldiers of the Najiang army in Jingzhou, even the soldiers of the Cao family under Cao Ren knew Huang Zhong's prestige. If Cao Ren sent troops, let's not talk about the final result. This has not yet been fought, and I am afraid that he lost three points of morale before the battle.

  『Wan City has been repaired for many years, the city defense is complete, and there are brave generals stationed there. If a large army is attacked, it may not be effective within a year or so,’ Cao Zhen said slowly. If it's from my nephew's opinion... Since Pang Shiyuan came, he must leave...』

  Cao Ren's eyes lit up, "Zidan meant to set up an ambush on Wuguan Road?" 』

Cao Zhen nodded, "From Wancheng to Guanzhong, all the way to the west, take the Wuguan Road, and all the way to the east, passing through Runan, Yangcheng, Heluo, and returning to Guanzhong... Going east is no different from looking for distance, and there are all relevant points along the way. Pass checkpoint, Pang Shiyuan's appearance... Hehe, quite outstanding, I am afraid it is difficult to cover up his whereabouts, so if he wants to return, he must take the way of Wuguan! All we need is for us to pretend that Runan has changed, to bluff, to let Huang Hansheng think that we have a heavy army in Runan...then send elite soldiers to set up an ambush at the dangerous place in Wuguan Road...』

  『Good! ”Cao Ren clapped his hands, “This is a great strategy! Follow Zidan's strategy, and wait for Pang Shiyuan to enter the hub! 』
