Chapter 1502 Speculated


    In any era, as long as there are classes, the lower-ranking people will inevitably speculate on the minds of the higher-ranking ones, and even regard such abilities as a secret book, a unique skill.


    Zhang is no exception. It has become a subconscious behavior of him to speculate on Fei Qian, General Zhengxi. Zhang Ze knows that he is indeed a bit dishonest when it comes to Liu Dan, but having said that, everyone, as long as they have the ability to think independently, they need to be responsible for their own thinking. This standard should be ability, not age.


    So Liu Dan fell into the current desperate situation, or the desperate situation in the eyes of others. Liu Dan''s own fairyland is also Liu Dan''s own choice. Zhang Ze just chose to be silent and go with the flow at the critical moment. Is there any responsibility? , but not very large.


    However, the problem is that Zhang Ze is not sure what this problem, which is not a big problem in his own eyes, and this responsibility, what is in the mind of Zhengxi General Fei Qian...


    Who would have known that Fei Qian, General Zhengxi, came to Hanzhong? Even if Zhang Ze was not prosecuted for the crime of promoting it, it was more or less inevitable for a simple crime of negligence and dereliction of duty.


    Zhang Ze originally thought that the Battle of Bingzhou between Zhengxi General Fei Qian and General Yuan Shao could not end so quickly, so naturally Zhengxi General Fei Qian didn''t have much thought to take care of Hanzhong, as long as Hanzhong There were no mistakes in the money and food provided, so naturally no one cared about Liu Dan''s inadvertent "disease death" in the process. Kedan ghost, what good things to say...


    However, in the world, plans often fail to keep up with changes. Who would have guessed that General Yuan Shao would be so careless?


    The general Yuan Shao seemed to be showing some pretentiousness, and it also proved from another angle that General Zhengxi Feiqian was tyrannical at the moment, so when General Zhengxi said that this matter was "not for the time being", Zhang Ze reacted almost immediately. "For the time being" is his last chance to make up for it.


    So, how to make up?


    Let Hanzhong pay more money and food to support General Fei Qian who conquered the West?


    Zhang thought for a while, then shook his head.


    This idea cannot be regarded as wrong, but it cannot be regarded as right either.


    Paying money and food, or collecting more money and food, is indeed something that can help Zhengxi and make General Zhengxi happy, but this thing is not a must!


    If another person does it, it may even be better than Zhang Ze. Because there are always three fires for new officials when they take office, and most of the Hanzhong gentry will not fight against the newly appointed officials from the beginning, so in a short period of time, as long as the new officials want to do it properly, then in a short period of time. It is not too difficult to pay some extra money and food.


    Therefore, what Zhang needs is a thing that must be done by him, something that no one else can do except him, and only in this way can the "temporary" that General Zhengxi said go on indefinitely.


    So what are the things that you can do that you can''t do, or that others can''t do?


    Zhang was in his study, with his hands behind his back, circling back and forth.


    Suddenly, Zhang Ze saw the few books on the table in the study, and couldn''t help but feel a move...


    China has a very long, quite long, very long period of time. There are national laws above and family laws below.


    Even in the period of the Republic of China, clan law was still greater than local law and national law. To give a simple example, under such circumstances, life will not be too easy for the little three and four who have extramarital affairs. Not everyone has the golden body that is exempt from entering the pigsty, and often only the man has it, and the woman either Either into a pig cage, so she is not a woman who is stupid to a certain extent, and she will not easily get out of the affair. After all, not only her own life, but also her family''s reputation, the price to pay is indeed too high.


    If it weren’t for this “tradition” that would still be preserved in many places, so from a certain point of view, in fact, everything has its contradictory unity.


    Such a custom was formed, of course, because of the feudal system.


    From the moment when the Duke of Zhou in the Spring and Autumn Period divided the world, three basic levels were formed: the princes and nobles, the nobles and officials, and the grassroots at the head of Guizhou. It can be seen as the collision and mutual penetration between these three classes. The more prosperous the age, the more stable the class will be, and then the contradictions will continue to accumulate, and then enter the next link. The changes of the ages only make the relationship between the three classes more stable. There are some windows for mutual communication, but in essence, there are not many changes. For details, you can refer to the Asan Kingdom, which still has a lot of such customs.


    Therefore, Fei Qian, the general who conquered the west, wanted to implement the laws of the Han Dynasty, and reprinted the laws of the Nine Chapters, etc., which may be innocuous in the eyes of ordinary people, but in the eyes of Zhang Ze, this is actually the same as that of Jia Gong back then. To change, to seek stability through Confucianism...


    But for Zhang Ze, what are the benefits of doing this? Therefore, although Zhang Ze guessed the intentions of some generals who conquered the west, Fei Qian, he still put these newly arrived laws on the table, and did not actually implement them.


    But now, it seems that it is time to compromise.


    After sitting at the table again, Zhang took the books of laws in front of him and flipped through them.


    The laws of the Han Dynasty are of course incomparable with the laws of later generations, but even the laws of later generations still have some loopholes. For those who can change their ID card time at any time, the law is just a piece of paper, but on the bright side , still have to talk about the law.


    As the patriarch of the gentry, Zhang Ze naturally likes to be the spokesperson of the law. In this way, his position in the family will be more consolidated, and people will respect him, but if it is replaced by the Han law...


    Doesn''t this mean that as long as the clansmen abide by the Han law, Zhang Ze will not be easy to manage? In other words, it means that he, the patriarch, must also be under the rules and regulations of the Han Law?


    Although Zhang Ze was somewhat enlightened, he still inevitably hesitated when he picked up these books of Han law.


    Looking at the three-color flag outside the government office courtyard wall, Zhang Ze was silent for a long time, sighed a long time, then cleared his throat slightly, and raised his voice to order: "Come on! Take a certain name card and go to Si''s, Tian''s, The Yang family and the Niu family posted a post! It means that the old man is hosting a family banquet, please be sure to appreciate it!"


    That''s all, that''s all, let''s keep the moment first!


    ………………


    Zhang is thinking about how to keep the present, but Xu Huang is thinking about how to keep his future.


    Looking at the swaying three-color battle flag above his head, Xu Huang''s thinking inevitably wavered accordingly.


    Under the three-color battle flag of General Zhengxi now, it is not like the three or two people in Bingzhou before...


    Zhang Liao, with 300 soldiers alone, rushed into Hongnong to take the food road, forcing the Tongguan army to advance and retreat; Zhao Yun came from a humble background, but now he was able to lead an army alone, dealing with the Xiongnu, Xianbei and Wuhuan, and forced the general Yuan Shao to retreat in the first battle. There is also that Tai Shici who came out of nowhere, with incomparably coquettish agility and cavalry control ability...


    Every time Xu Huang thought of this, the corners of Xu Huang''s mouth twitched unavoidably.


    Under the conquest of the West, there seem to be too many of these monsters!


    How to do it?


    Is it to say that Zhang Liao''s mind is not pure, and he must have ulterior motives by following Wen Hou Lu Bu in circles? Or to say that Zhao Yun came from a humble background, and he is in charge of the people in Montenegro, so it is inevitable that he will be suspected of resurgence? Or is it because Tai Shici and General Dong have colluded with each other so that they can come and go smoothly without hindrance?


    Irresponsible spraying, who wouldn''t?


    In contrast, Xu Huang''s previous achievements seem to be far away, or they are no longer dazzling marks.


    Hit Baibo?


    Beat the Qiang people?


    Can you change someone?


    Not necessarily impossible. In these years, I don’t know how many people have fought against the Yellow Turban Heishan Baibo. Some lost, and naturally some won. Can you say that whoever leaves will definitely do it, or can you say that he must not do it?


    But in turn, let Xu Huang command the cavalry, between the black mountains and the white waters, to and fro in Bingbei, or in Heluo and Jizhou, looking for opportunities...


    Xu Huang asked himself, he didn''t dare to say that he could do better than Zhao Yuntai Shici.


    In this way, Xu Huang''s sense of insecurity became more and more intense.


    Naturally, I dare not think about it on the front line, so I am now considered to be the second-line combat force under Zhengxi''s command? Or can''t even rank in the second line?


    Xu shook his head, as if he wanted to shake this not-so-good idea out of his mind.


    I went to Zhengxi at the beginning, was it because I was a low-ranking military general who could not be ranked second-rate?


    What a joke!


    Then the problem is very realistic. When it comes to riding skills, Xu Huang is not the best, and his control over cavalry is not the best, and when it comes to infantry...


    Damn it, but whoever is a bit capable, and which general can''t command infantry?


    Even if these infantry were immediately transferred to people like Li Ru and Jia Xu who were more inclined to people''s livelihood and government affairs, it would not delay much. These people can also manage well. If you line up, just line up, and it will definitely not be much worse than Xu Huang''s command.


    Thinking about it this way, I seem to have an advantage over these people that I can fight with an ax on my shoulders?


    Xu Huang ground his teeth.


    Xu Huang, who has some family traditions, naturally knows how youthful it will be if he is just doing a battle before the battle. Indeed, in the years when his body is at its peak, the scenery is unparalleled. The sharp center of gravity of the entire army is admired by thousands of people, and will receive many honors and rewards, but as he grows older, his body is injured, and his strength declines, how can he be able to fight on the front line on the battlefield for ten or twenty years?


    Then where are these generals who have fallen from the peak?


    All have become stepping stones and collectibles for the next generation of fighters to become famous, and they have become the capital for the opponent to show off their military exploits by putting them in the wooden box.


    Pure fighters have no future, so what advantages do you have, and where should you use them?


    During these days, Xu Huang was rushing from Longyou to Hanzhong, thinking about this question constantly in his mind. After all, this question is related to Xu Huang''s own future direction, as well as the prospects and expectations of the Xu family.


    "General! The Yangping Pass is ahead!"


    Xu Huang raised his head suddenly and found that it was indeed the case. The outline of Yangping Pass had already appeared among the distant mountains.


    Not long after, Xu Huang was passing through Yangping Pass, and met Ma Heng, Yizhou Biejia and Yangping Pass Order.


    Ma Heng, in fact, was originally Liu Dan who deliberately wooed him, trying to use the Jingxiang forces of Ma Heng and others to fight against Zhang Ze, the native of Hanzhong, but he did not expect that Liu Dan collapsed before the two sides really entered the wrestling stage. Ma Heng was naturally squeezed out of the central administrative circle in Hanzhong, and became the guard of Yangping Pass under the title of individual driver.


    Of course, from another point of view, such an important pass as Yangping Pass is of course safer in the hands of the Jingxiang faction, so although Xu Shu settled in Hanzhong later, he didn''t have much opinion on such a transfer. . In Xu Shu''s view, taking such an opportunity to hone Ma Heng and let him accumulate more experience in military affairs is also a normal operation, and it is not worth making a fuss about.


    Ma Heng is not a dull person, and he can somewhat perceive something from Xu Shu''s attitude. Therefore, during this period of time in Yangping Pass, he basically did not wear the long robes and wide sleeves of scribes, but wore a helmet and armor. It is no different from ordinary generals.


    Even Xu Huang couldn''t help but be a little surprised. After all, in Xu Huang''s impression, shouldn''t the so-called long history don''t drive and so on, should have a long scarf, a broad robe and a high crown?


    Although Ma Heng saw that Xu Huang had some doubts in his eyes, he just laughed and did not explain. Ma Heng is not Xu Huang''s father, nor Xu Huang''s master, so why should he explain Xu Huang''s confusion?


    However, if it is said to steal some teachers in turn, Ma Heng showed no psychological burden, and told Xu Huang how much supplies, how much food and grass he had, and provided them to Xu Huang as a supplement. Immediately, he changed his tone and talked about how tough Xu Huang''s subordinates are. Many of them carried huge battle axes, expressing how to train so many strong soldiers, so that Xu Huang can teach them at all costs...


    Xu Huang wasn''t stupid either, he slapped a few haha ??and got away. I use tomahawks myself, so I taught some of my subordinates how to use axes. Isn''t this normal, but Ma Heng is not one of his subordinates, so why should he say it in vain?


    Ma Heng didn''t care too much. Anyway, in the Han Dynasty, no matter what kind of knowledge, it was basically a place for everyone to settle down. Therefore, it is normal not to pass it on easily. Anyway, it was originally a test of whether there is a date or not, so Xu Huang It''s normal not to say anything, and he is a colleague, and there will be opportunities in the future, so he said goodbye and left with a smile.


    After sending Ma Heng away, Xu Huang suddenly realized something in his heart, and turned to look at his subordinates who were holding battle axes...


    During this period of time, Xu Huang was basically in Longyou, Xiliang. Naturally, he also recruited some Xiliang men. These Xiliang men are tall and strong, otherwise they would not be able to handle heavy battle axes.


    Xu Huang looked at it, and suddenly had a preliminary idea. He couldn''t help frowning, tilted his head slightly, and looked at the tricolor flag on his head. Well, I don''t know if General Zhengxi will support such an idea. …


    嗐, very distressed...
