Chapter 1510 A field
?Fei Qian tapped the table gently with his fingers, listening to Huang Quan''s report on the previous unification of large households in Sichuan and Sichuan and the arrangements for related matters.
Attacking Sichuan and Shu with farmers instead of soldiers, this can be said to be an unprecedented and huge change.
This change was something that Fei Qian had not thought of. Before it was made, no one seemed to have thought of it, but after it was made, everyone suddenly understood. After all, ancient China was still a farming society.
? ? Some trolls in later generations said that in the beginning, agriculture was all about finding food in dogtail grass, so how could it feed a large group of people? Then he expressed doubts, saying that agriculture was actually an accidental development, because the original Zhuanghe was indeed similar to Setaria spp.
?Perhaps the domestication of crops in agriculture is indeed an accident, but from another perspective, it is inevitable for human survival.
Just like Sichuan and Shu.
Human history developed to about 10,000 years ago. At the end of the last ice age, the Mesolithic Age in archeology, the earth''s ecological environment on which humans depended for survival underwent tremendous changes. The global temperature rose, the replacement of animals and vegetation, and Changes in sea level, etc., have led to the emergence of a series of new things, the most important of which is the emergence of farming...
Of course, farming has not been smooth sailing, and there have even been faults. However, with the end of the post-glacial period, the permafrost thawed and the number of lakes and swamps increased, which led to the extinction of large prey that were originally adapted to the cold, such as woolly mammoths. As small mammals increased in number, it was impossible for primitive humans to preserve food as they did during the Ice Age. The double pressure of hunting quality and quantity caused primitive humans to begin to turn their attention to more and wider types of food, such as fish and shellfish. Food also penetrated from the second echelon to the first echelon, forming a more complex food chain system. In such a food chain system, humans consciously store and select some high-yielding and excellent varieties to supplement the large prey. Due to the shortage of food, farming took shape.
In addition, in the process of the origin of agriculture, the origin of livestock breeding can be said to be its twin sister. In a sense, they promote and drive each other, and then jointly become the main economic basis for the development of human society.
Therefore, in ancient times, the mainly agricultural China and the nomadic Hu people always fell in love and killed each other. This is because the two grasshoppers originally developed on the same line, and the genes that did not like each other were probably in the primitive people. In the midst of fighting and beating each other, I''m afraid the seeds have already been planted.
Fei Qian had thought about it for a long time before, and he really spent a lot of time on the issue of how to obtain the land of Sichuan and Shu. According to Pang Tong''s idea, they can just use soldiers to push in. From Hanzhong all the way south to Jianning, they can basically control the entire Sichuan and Shu.
As for Fei Qian, he needs to think further.
What is the ultimate goal of occupying Sichuan and Shu, or in other words, controlling Sichuan and Shu?
Obtain food and materials from Sichuan and Shu.
From a certain perspective, at least in the Han Dynasty, the military resources of Sichuan and Shu were not very good. Maybe mountain camps could be used, but should they be used for other purposes...
The men from Liangzhou and Bingzhou are more suitable for fighting with cold weapons.
?This is not to look down on the personnel of Sichuan and Shu, but history has proved that those who have Sichuan and Shu as their rear are relatively good, but those who only have Sichuan and Shu often cannot last long. That boy Liu Bang only went to Hanzhong for a tour, and he was transferred out again in a year or two. Moreover, the people who acted as Liu Bang''s vanguard at that time were not soldiers from Sichuan and Shu, but a large number of soldiers left over from the former Qin Dynasty. Guanzhong Army.
In addition, it is also very important to point out that the development of the commodity economy is to a certain extent a benchmark between war and peace. In more turbulent areas, households will inevitably gather together to protect themselves, and the natural economy and even small-scale collective survival economies will occupy a dominant position. , just like the Black Mountain bandits. If the population in the mountains hadn''t grown and they couldn''t afford it, some of these Black Mountain bandits wouldn''t want to come out of the mountains to plunder.
After the Heluo Rebellion in Guanzhong, the commodity economy of the entire Central Plains region suffered a devastating blow. From Dong Zhuo to Li Guo, the economic system of Guanzhong suffered a heavy blow. If Fei Qian had not injected his own economic system into Guanzhong, I am afraid it would be like Historically, until the reign of Emperor Wen of Wei, Cao Pi, China was still "poor with money and goods" and was even forced to "stop money and make the people use grain and silk as the market."
At the same time, in history, Yizhou can see obvious traces of the use of money, which shows that in the Bashu region, the commodity economy of money transactions has not been greatly affected.
Now that Guanzhong is merging with the north, there is an urgent need for product sales channels and a large amount of metal currency. The relatively undisturbed economic systems in Sichuan and Shu have naturally become a piece of fat in Fei Qian''s eyes.
?Fei Qian, who has received a lot of information from later generations, certainly does not think that war can only be fought with swords, guns and bullets. Economic wars are also **** and brutal.
??After all, even middle school politics textbooks have a lot of them written in black and white. It’s the 21st century, but they only know **** if they don’t obey? Could it be that all the books I have read over the years have ended up in a dog’s belly?
Therefore, using farming technology to lure people in Sichuan and Shu, and then using the economic system to invade Sichuan and Shu, thus forming a fait accompli, intensifying the conflict between Liu Zhang and the local people in Sichuan and Shu, and finally gaining control of Sichuan and Shu as a whole, has become The focus of Feiqian''s entire current strategy is to operate.
Therefore, the strategic change brought about by Fei Qian suddenly plunged the entire Sichuan and Shu into chaos. The people in Sichuan and Shu who had not welcomed Fei Qian suddenly felt that they were doing things under the Zhengxi. Being ruled by its management is not a bad choice...
?So does Feiqian have the foundation to achieve such a strategic goal?
There is, and it is abundant.
In addition to the common greedy instinct of ordinary people, the humanistic characteristics and social deconstruction formed over the years in Sichuan and Sichuan have become the basis for Fei Qian to realize this strategic plan.
Those who have always fought for the world cannot only look at the quantity of output on the panel, but must look at the specific situation. Only by truly making good use of every piece of national power, applying it to the place where it should be used, and better integrating the resources it belongs to Only with the various political and economic resources in its base can such a regime have the capital to dominate the world.
?Sichuan-Sichuan Province is a place with strong economic strength, but few people can make good use of it and bring out the maximum potential of Sichuan-Sichuan Province.
As a native of Sichuan and Shu, Huang Quan is located in Brazil, an area bordering Hanzhong. In addition, he is also relatively smart. This time he followed Fei Qian from Hanzhong to Sichuan and Shu, so he naturally planned to do something on his own. A career is not like living in a foreign country in Hanzhong.
Therefore, in the lobby of the Langzhong government office, after Huang Quan finished reporting his previous work, he took the initiative to point to the map of Sichuan and Shu and said to Fei Qian: "The customs of Sichuan and Shu are completely different from those of Hanzhong and Guanzhong. The land of Sichuan and Shu is very different from Hanzhong and Guanzhong. Most of them are smart, quick-tempered, and ugly in appearance. Most of them are under seven feet tall and admire the classics. There are also some who are outstanding. However, most of the children are indulged in pleasures and rarely serve as officials. They may become old and gray and never leave their hometowns. …” ? ? Fei Qian nodded slowly and glanced at Huang Quan. This guy suddenly talked about the weaknesses of Sichuan and Shu people. Did he mean that he was an exception, or that he knew Sichuan and Shu very well, or both? Or is there something else besides the two?
?However, what Huang Quan said about the situation in Sichuan and Shu is indeed the case.
This is the typical rural thinking of the people of Sichuan and Shu. Because the land of Shu is closed and rich, and the people are addicted to leisure, it shows that the character is relatively weak, likes to enjoy, and is not brave in martial arts. Those who can take action in Bingzhou with Xiliang will never do anything. The styles are naturally different. At the same time, it is no wonder that the surnames in Sichuan and Shu are so powerful, and the local political power in Sichuan and Shu is often controlled by the surnames. This is somewhat similar to Guanzhong, but it is more serious than Guanzhong.
"The people of Sichuan and Sichuan are so skillful craftsmen..." Huang Quan glanced at Fei Qian, then lowered his head and continued, "... He is good at guessing things, his silk brocade carvings are exquisite, and he plays with the wonders of food and drink. All young and old admire him. Most of them are proud of it... In the family, the women work hard, while the scholars are free, partying and feasting, especially money plays..."
As Fei Qian listened, he suddenly felt some emotion in his heart. The Sichuan and Shu forms are of the same origin. Let alone the Han Dynasty, it seems to be the same even in later generations. There is not much change. The crackling sound of mahjong has lasted for thousands of years. ah!
In later generations, when Sichuan and Sichuan are mentioned, Sichuan cuisine must be thought of, and when Sichuan cuisine is mentioned, boiled fish, pickled cabbage fish, boiled fish must be indispensable...
Fei Qian has been to Chengdu before. Do you want to ask for directions? If you ask about government offices and street administration places, seven or eight out of ten ordinary people don''t know very well. But if you ask where there are fun and delicious places in the surrounding area, , haha, both parties were immediately happy...
And what’s very interesting is that when Fei was hiding in Sichuan and Shu, he heard about male and female friends and marriage. There may be other words and other meanings in other places, but in Sichuan and Shu, no matter young or old, the man is the woman and the man is the woman. , they all call this behavior "playing friends", which is really scary when you think about it...
?At the same time, because of the characteristics of Sichuan and Shu, those who dominate Shu are often relatively powerful refugee groups who come to avoid chaos. The contradiction between subject and object has existed to a greater or lesser extent in the Shu regimes throughout history, but it was extremely acute in the Shu regime of Liu Yan and his son, and even threatened the survival of the regime.
When Liu Yan entered Sichuan, he brought tens of thousands of people from the Sanfu area of ??Nanyang to Sichuan and Shu to avoid disaster. He thought that his cronies were the so-called Dongzhou scholars in Sichuan and Shu, and they were also Liu Zhang''s last barrier...
And if you want to dismantle the barrier, it is often more effective to start from the inside, isn''t it?
Huang Quan continued: "Now there are nearly 30,000 Dongzhou soldiers near Chengdu... Because Liu Yizhou is lenient and ruthless, the Dongzhou soldiers disturb the place and Yizhou breaks the grudges... The lord adopts this strategy, not attacking the city but attacking the heart, which is in line with the military strategy. Wonderful, this is the best strategy... If the crops are plentiful at this time, it will be the day when Sichuan and Sichuan are settled... Although a certain person is not talented, he wants to share the worries of the Lord, and is willing to do his best to choose a field in Langzhong and try it. , help the Lord accomplish this, and take Sichuan and Shu as soon as possible..."
Oh, I understand.
? Huang Quan came here specially this time not only to report, but also to invite Ying.
?However, it is not impossible to give this authority to Huang Quan...
Generally speaking, the scholars of Sichuan and Shu probably had some expectations for Liu Yan when he was ordered by the emperor to become the shepherd of Yizhou. You must know that when Liu Yan entered Shu, his surname was Jia Long in Yizhou. I went to greet him in person. However, after Liu Yan succeeded in taking over the state, he went back on his words and soon executed more than ten people from the Yizhou family in vain to establish his authority. This move directly caused the Yizhou family to alienate Liu Yan''s rule. After Liu Yan did this, he did not think about easing the conflict or changing his ways. Instead, because he offended the Yizhou surname, he relied more on the Dongzhou people as an outside force and used them as his **** to fight against the Yizhou wealthy people. The conflict between the two parties eventually ended. reconcile.
Huang Quan happened to have witnessed such a change, so although his words were inevitably mixed with some selfishness, he also strongly agreed with Fei Qian''s strategy from the bottom of his heart, so he came to ask Ying to host such a meeting. After all, if a thing is successful, such a feat is no less than conquering a city in front of the battle.
Unlike Cao Cao''s model of controlling all military power in the hands of his relatives and brothers, Fei Qian did not have many relatives to share the important tasks, so most of the military power was dispersed, with part of the Jingxiang faction, part of the Xiliang faction, and part of Bingzhou. The faction seems to be very loose, but in fact it is Huang''s workshop that is responsible for the internal connection.
Not to mention anything else, the words "General Fei Huang''s Supervisor" on the armor blade are the first words these big-headed soldiers learned about cultural literacy. Together with the nameplates on each soldier, It also integrates these scattered soldiers into a whole, so although the generals commanding the soldiers under Zhengxi are now scattered, the soldiers under him all know that above these directly subordinate generals, there is also a Zhengxi General...
Naturally, Huang Quan did not dare to ask General Zhengxi for the authority to command troops and horses, but when he presided over the demonstration of farming technology this time, he keenly realized that this was his way to show off himself and gain meritorious service. An excellent opportunity, and by the way, if it succeeds, it will not only prove the operability of these advanced farming technologies of General Zhengxi, but also master these technologies at home...
For Fei Qian, the general who conquered the west, Huang Quan''s suggestion to create such a test field was naturally necessary.
Experimental field…
?Fei Qian nodded slightly.
From a certain perspective, isn’t Huang Quan a testing field?
Of course, these Sichuan and Shu people cannot be solved in just one or two sentences. The specifics still depend on the efficacy, well, the effectiveness of the yield per mu. Therefore, Huang Quan’s suggestion, this experimental field opened in Langzhong, will naturally It has become the focus of attention in the next stage of Sichuan and Shu.
Fei Qian pondered for a moment, looked at Huang Quan, and said: "A new trial field is like building a river to build an embankment. It is not easy to build, but it only takes a moment to destroy it. I wonder if Gong Heng can care about it?"
Huang Quan cupped his hands and said loudly: "My lord Mingjian, outside Langzhong City, there is a mountain to the north of the Xishan School Ground, named Ping. As the name suggests, the mountain is like a screen and a barrier, so it is an excellent place. On the hillside, with the sun facing the sun and the back facing the sun, it can be a great place. The camp is next to the Langshui River, and can be used for plowing. Ditches can be dug to create water conservancy, and fences can be built outside. Troops can be stationed on patrol to prevent the lack of power. Come and see me!"
Fei Qian smiled slightly and nodded in approval, but Fei Qian never expected that when he was preparing this field in Langzhong, the other field was undergoing earth-shaking changes...
