Chapter 1748 The plan is the plan
Sometimes, if you want to live a simple life, you can’t think too much about some problems. Once you think too much, life will not be simple.
The result of Pang Tong''s inquiry with Liu Qi came out.
Although Liu Qi didn''t know those thieves in the city, his guards recognized the faces of two of them. They were originally from Jiangling, and they were also rangers...
In the Jingzhou area, there are two important towns, one is Xiangyang in the north, and the other is Jiangling in the south. Jiangling was also the capital of the Chu State in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods. The original seat of Jingzhou was also in Jiangling, but because of Liu Biao''s personal reasons, it was changed to Xiangyang.
"Jiangling Renshi..." Fei Qian pondered, then glanced at Pang Tong, told Pang Tong to sit and rest, and called his attendants to serve tea.
Pang Tong nodded silently. Although he worked hard all day, it was indeed very hard, but the whole thing is not over yet. On the contrary, there are more follow-up things waiting...
Of course, it doesn’t mean that they don’t understand at all. Cao Cao’s side basically understands it. It’s just that these follow-up problems are caused by two different groups of thieves.
"..." A thought suddenly appeared in Fei Qian''s mind, and he immediately denied it. In order not to continue this dangerous thought, he changed the subject and did not continue to circle around the crossbow machine and Jiangling, "Cao Mengde didn''t Are you afraid that a certain soldier will leave Yanzhou?"
Pang Tong put down his tea bowl and sighed: "It is precisely because he was afraid that the lord would send troops that he came up with this strategy... Li Tong and Li Wenda confessed that Cao Sikong''s original intention... If the lord does not send troops, he must not act rashly, but what, the lord Yu Huai two days ago The military exercise in Li... turned out to be an omen of sending out troops..."
Feiqian laughed dumbly, shook his head, and said, "Such behavior really doesn''t look like Meng De''s handwriting... Didn''t you think that the matter would be revealed and be ashamed by the world?"
Pang Tong interjected: "What about this matter... compared to the foundation of the world, what is it to ridicule one or two? What''s more, now that Cao Sikong is coercing the emperor''s order to beg Yuan, if we wait to raise troops, it will be unrighteous, so we will cover it up... Well, there are other methods as well..."
Although what Pang Tong said was a bit convoluted, Fei Qian still understood it. He couldn''t help but nodded, sighed slightly, and said, "That''s true..."
First of all, Cao Cao was afraid of Fei Qian sending troops, so he had to leave some countermeasures. There is no doubt about this point. If it was replaced by Fei Qian in Cao Cao''s position, he would basically deal with it in the same way. As for whether he used an assassin or some other means, that''s another story. However, no matter how you look at it, assassins are more economical...
Secondly, if such a method is discovered, there will be nothing more than two results, Fei Qian sends troops, or Fei Qian does not send troops. However, it is very unlikely that Fei Qian will not send troops, so once Fei Qian sends troops, then Cao Cao can use the pretense of Fei Qian raising troops to go against him, and then modify the time sequence a little bit, it will be fine...
Just like "Fei Hussars marched eastward, Cao Sikong made the assassination unsuccessful", and "Cao Sikong sent the guest''s assassination to fail, Fei Hussars marched eastward", the events contained in the whole are exactly the same It''s not missing, it''s just that the sequence is different, but the feeling is completely different.
As for which one is true and which one is false, which one comes first and which one comes after, in fact, the winner has the final say, and the people who read history books in later generations look confused.
"If you go into the army, what should you do?" Fei Qian asked again.
Pang Tong glanced at Fei Qian, and was slightly silent. After a while, he said: "My lord, the military affairs... may as well postpone it..."
"Pause?" Fei Qian repeated.
Pang Tong nodded, and said: "Cao Mengde''s strategy is a strategy. The third is useful. First, if the lord sends troops, he can assassinate him... Second, it can mess up the Qinglong Temple''s discussion... Third, maybe he didn''t lure the lord to send troops immediately meaning..."
Fei Qian tapped lightly on the table, thinking.
As a counselor, Pang Tong, although his appearance is indeed a little ugly, but his strength should not be underestimated. Although he is basically busy all day, he still took time to sort out his thoughts and extract the essence from the phenomenon. …
Fei Qian cast his eyes outside the door, and Pang Tong''s statement was a bit new.
The setting sun bid farewell to the chaotic day and fell from the sky. The fires in Chang''an City have basically been extinguished. Under the cover of dusk, blood stains and black smoke are generally not visible. Everything that happened to people before.
"Inducing someone to send troops?" Fei Qian frowned, "Isn''t Shi Yuan''s words contradictory?"
Pang Tong said: "My lord, the so-called different ways do not conspire with each other. My lord and Cao Sikong will eventually have a battle..." What Pang Tong said is true. Fei Qian and Cao Cao will eventually have a battle. Both sides actually know this matter, but although Cao Cao looks very weak now, and his troops are not in Yanzhou, does it mean that it is the best time for Fei Qian to start the war?
Fight, kill, kill, the simplest.
Is it broken after all, who wouldn''t?
But it is not easy to think about construction in addition to fighting and killing, and even think about how to use the raw materials of the ruins to build a more majestic building on top of the ruins.
If it is simply from the perspective of soldiers and generals, although Wei Yan is in Sichuan, Zhao Yun is in Changshan, and Zhang Liao is in Xidu, but there is Xu Huang in Guanzhong, Tai Shici in Hangu, and Liao Hua in Wuguan. Well, although it is not a complete body form, it still has a certain weight...
So, there is no problem with sending troops, the problem is after sending troops.
Regardless of the victory or defeat of the soldiers and generals on the battlefield, let’s say that Yanzhou and even Jizhou have been defeated, and then what? How should personnel be arranged?
How to promote the policy? Should it be carried out in accordance with Fiji''s policy in Guanzhong, or should it follow Shandong''s previous policy, or should it be readjusted and adopt another balanced approach?
In addition, with that troublesome emperor, what standard should Fei Qian use to treat it?
Everyone doesn''t like a guy who goes back on his word, whether it''s ancient or modern, Chinese or foreign. Therefore, Fei Qian is also extremely disgusted with those leaders who assign extra work on a temporary basis, or leaders who have to assign tasks when they are off work. Similarly, do not do to others what you want to do. In this era of very slow information and communication, there must be continuity and consistency. Once a political strategy is implemented, it is naturally impossible to switch quickly.
Political laws and regulations are the most taboo to change overnight.
The Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, or the feudal dynasties of later generations will not be mentioned, but only the lessons learned before us.
Yuan Shao.
And Yuan Shu.
At the beginning of the appeal for Dong, Yuan Shao was really a model in the world, and everyone responded, but as time went by, people gradually discovered that Yuan Shao was not a "loyal" person who took the rise and fall of the world as his own responsibility as originally imagined, but a A careerist who plans to change the dynasty, so the Yingchuan faction that originally took refuge under Yuan Shao split apart...
Until the proud and conceited Yuan Shu, he dreamed of using the kindness accumulated by the Yuan family for a hundred years to build an ambitious throne, but finally found that even with a hundred years of kindness, he still rebelled when it was time to rebel.
Now, although Yuan''s flag has not been lowered, it is actually not far from falling with a bang. Except for those who can no longer get off the ship, most of the rest have abandoned Yuan. How long did it take to go from being a role model in the world to being spurned by the world?
The shift in the political line, from a brave person who advocated resistance to violence, became an ambitious prince who used violence to disrupt the government. This undoubtedly made many people who originally supported the Yuan family begin to waver. The foundation of the army is loose, and if there is a slight disturbance, it will fall apart and Cao Cao will be cheap.
So once Feiqian sends troops, it means that the new policy of Kansai and the old policy of Kanto will collide with each other, just like when Qin State unified the six countries.
What''s more, Fei Qian now has the strength of Qin Shihuang at that time, can he sweep the princes? Qin Shihuang has a great talent, and he has been doing it for nine years. Where is Fei Qian now? How long will it take?
Fei Qian listened to Pang Tong''s analysis, pondered...
"Besides, my lord is now sitting in Guanzhong, condescending, and sitting in Hangu, which is the state of Western Qin..." Pang Tong continued to analyze, "However, Qin was not strong at the beginning, and it will decline for a hundred years. If the six countries have their own plans abroad, There are also vertical and horizontal strategies to counteract, and it is difficult for the former Qin Dynasty to achieve nine years of achievements..."
The Qin Dynasty was not all emperors. They were so successful all the time, and sometimes they lost without underwear. Duke Hui of Qin raised 500,000 soldiers to fight to the death with the Wei army. He thought that he would surely win because of his superior force, but he was defeated by Wu Qi with 50,000 soldiers in the first battle of Yin and Jin. Offensive, fortunately there are still many contradictions in the Three Jins themselves, and they did not continue to press Qin, otherwise Qin would probably be mysterious.
It is precisely because of the loss of the Qin State that only the underpants are left, so the Qin State learned from the painful experience and adopted Shang Yang''s reform. After that, everyone is basically familiar with it...
Pang Tong''s meaning is also very straightforward. At this stage, Fei Qian seems to have this momentum, but it still takes a certain amount of time to transform from momentum to strength.
On the other hand, now Feiqian controls Hanguguan, Wuguan, Taihang Pass, etc., which means that Feiqian can use a small amount of troops to contain a large number of opposing forces, and at the same time it is difficult for the opponent to attack, and the flanks are worry-free, but if Feiqian chooses Sending troops to leave the pass, no matter entering Yanzhou or Jizhou, unless it is a quick decision, or a surprise like Tai Shici, otherwise once you fall into a tug-of-war and positional warfare, the longer the front, the more vulnerable you will be. many.
"Thus, although Cao Sikong is now fighting in Hebei, it is not impossible to get rid of it..." Pang Tong said, "What''s more, if the lord turns from the situation to reality, it is not as good...So Cao Sikong chose a Shi Huan and Shigong Liu, and he also chose him. A Li Tong and Li Wenda...this is a plan!" Pang Tong emphasized again with a heavier tone.
"Hmm..." Fei Qian nodded slowly.
When Pang Tong said this, some vague doubts in Fei Qian''s heart were basically explained.
Logically speaking, Cao Cao shouldn''t be so short-sighted and use assassination methods, but if Pang Tong''s analysis is added, it seems quite reasonable. After all, no one likes a tiger lying on the side of the couch to grow up comfortably. Wouldn''t it be better to kill the tiger earlier than to wait for the tiger to grow up?
So Cao Cao originally planned to make several traps?
That''s why it was Shi Huan and Li Tong who came to Guanzhong. They didn''t look like Xiahou or Cao''s fierce generals participated. In a sense, Shi Huan and Li Tong were actually abandoned children. It''s great to have some special effects, but it doesn''t matter if they are discovered, because Cao Cao himself didn''t fully expect these two people to do anything...
Pang Tong looked at Fei Qian, and continued, "If it wasn''t from Jiangling, I wouldn''t have thought of this place..."
"People from Jiangling?" Fei Qian knocked on the table and said, "After a certain person left the city, Fang Xing made trouble?"
Pang Tong nodded and said: "My lord is wise! That''s right! The Jiangling thief is not for assassination, but for chaos!" If he really wanted to assassinate Fei Qian, he should go to ambush him like Shi Huan and Li Tong did. Fei Qian, how could he act after "Fei Qian" left the city?
Although there are some reasons for Feiqian to implement the Baojia system, in essence, it does not seem that there is much desire to assassinate Feiqian, only the intention to mess up desperately. From the destroyed workshops in the city, it can be generally seen that come out. In some workshops near the General’s Mansion, there is basically no impact, and the workshops that have suffered more damage are basically far away from the General’s Mansion...
Do not seek to kill Fei Qian, only to stir up trouble.
This is interesting...
Why the mess?
It''s very simple, because the current Feiqian has already made people feel a great threat, so I don''t want Feiqian to settle down and accumulate strength. If it can disrupt Feiqian''s rhythm, disrupt the rhythm. It''s better to lose your mind...
So if Fei Qian sends troops, who can get the most benefit?
"According to what Shi Yuan said, this Jiangling man..." Fei Qian stretched out his hand and slapped it on the table, "It wasn''t sent by Cao Sikong, but..."
Pang Tong nodded, stretched out his finger and pointed in another direction, "Besides, this is also a bit suspicious..."
"Hehe..." Fei Qian was taken aback for a moment, smiled bitterly, shook his head slightly, and sighed, "In this world, there are indeed so many heroes..."
Those who can leave some names in history are not good people!
"In this case..." Fei Qian thought for a moment, and finally said, "Let''s put Li Tong, Li Wenda and other thieves on public trial in Qinglong Temple, and convict them of indiscriminate killing of innocent people and murdering courtiers. Send it to Xu County!"
It turned out that Fei Qian had a lot of grievances in his heart, and he wanted to kill Li Tong and others to vent his anger, or cruelly picked off some tendons and tendons and tortured them, but after listening to Pang Tong''s analysis, he felt that if he really The only thing to do is to kill Li Tong and others, which is equivalent to taking advantage of these guys who are secretly rubbing behind their backs. It is better to throw them out and let Cao Cao shoot himself in the foot!
Pang Tong smiled and said: "My lord is wise! However, if this is the case, we might as well separate this matter... Li Tong and Li Wenda feel that the lord is unparalleled in virtue and can''t bear to do evil, so he abandons chaos and turns to the light. He should show his loyalty and protect him to the utmost. Xu, make his name famous in the world... and blame Lu Da in Weinan, find out that he colluded with foreign thieves, and caused chaos in Chang''an. The crime is unforgivable. The effect of the bird is also..."
Fei Qian laughed and pointed at Pang Tong, "Good! That''s it!"
