Chapter 2078: Inside and outside the market, strategy and planning(1/2)
Sometimes things are just such a coincidence, and sometimes everything seems to be destined.
Xiahou Dun asked Cai Mao to come forward, partly as a threat and partly as a force to make most of the Jingzhou gentry north of Xiangyang migrate to Xiangyang. Naturally, his thinking was similar to the strategy of migrating large households to enrich Guanzhong in the early Han Dynasty.
But the location was changed to Xiangyang.
This behavior is like cutting leeks.
Of course, Xiahou Dun was not the first to cut leeks among the Han people. If he followed, he would not be able to avoid Liu Bang.
Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, was an ordinary person with a gangster streak before he came to power. He became emperor by relying on violence and luck. Even though he had become emperor, many acquaintances knew the details of his early years, and there were many other six-year-olds.
The subjects of the country, they are still loyal to the aristocratic blood of the six countries, and look down upon the hooligans who come from common people.
How can Liu Bang, who was once an ordinary person, be accepted as the emperor? How can people be loyal to Liu Bang's descendants and obey this emerging regime for a long time?
Liu Bang created the method of cutting leeks.
At that time, the leeks in the hometown of the Six Nations had basically lost all their capital and strength in the last struggle. When facing the sickle raised high by Liu Bang, even if they were unwilling, they were powerless...
The correctness of the Han Dynasty's political power was gradually established through this act of cutting leeks.
This time, Xiahou Dun cut the leeks in an attempt to get rid of all the influence of Liu Biao, the herdsman of Jingzhou, and clean up the leek fields. On the one hand, he could obtain a large amount of material wealth before the war, and on the other hand, he could collect and organize these leeks.
The leeks' servants and private soldiers enhance their own strength. Of course, it also has the meaning of strengthening the wall and clearing the country.
This kind of strategy is naturally not as colorful and ups and downs as the Thirty-six Stratagems, but it is indeed direct and effective. It can make Cai Mao a villain, disrupt Cai Mao's original plan, and separate the Cai family from these Jingzhou nobles.
The close relationship between them, and at the same time eliminating hidden dangers, backhand laid a trap for Fei Qian...
Wealth and food were brought to Xiangyang. When Xu Huang led his troops, they were faced with the evacuated forts in various places, and then the village slaves and ordinary people were left without food and clothing.
So according to Xiahou Dun's prediction, there is not much that Xu Huang can do.
If Xu Huang rescues these people, it will be equivalent to weakening his own strength, consuming a lot of military rations, and can only pursue a quick war. If he cannot capture Xiangyang and the military rations are unsustainable, it will be an irreversible defeat!
It is not easy to capture Xiangyang under Xiahou Dun's tight defense.
If Xu Huang does not rescue these Jingzhou people, it means that Fei Qian's emotional cards in Jingzhou are all lost, and Fei Qian's so-called cover for justice for Liu Qi is torn off. If Fei Qian cannot even take care of the poor Jingzhou people,
What about the friendship between Jing and Xiang?
If Xu Huang gathered strong men from all over and led them to attack the city, Xiahou Dun would not be afraid. On the one hand, Liu Biao did not expect that he would fall so quickly. Xiangyang also had a lot of war supplies in its inventory, so there was no need to worry about consuming tactics.
, On the other hand, if Xu Huang really did this, it would naturally arouse the indignation and sorrow of the relocated nobles in the city, and they would inevitably fall into the arms of Cao Cao from neutrality...
After all, Xiahou Dun ostensibly just "invited" these people to come to Xiangyang to escape the military disaster. To a certain extent, he did not directly destroy his manor and its population...
Xiahou Dun stood on the top of Xiangyang City, supervising the repair of city defenses and building fortifications, while looking at Xu Huang's camp in the distance, looking at the queue of soldiers entering and leaving Xu Huang's camp, he couldn't help but smile.
From the looks of it, Xu Huang seemed to have come into contact with these evacuated manors and forts, as evidenced by the sporadic people who were brought to the military camps.

This time, let me show you the methods outside of the battle formation!
While Xiahou Dun was actually using off-the-table tactics, Xun Yu and others who stayed at the base camp in Xu County also had to face Fei Qian's off-the-chart tactics...
Ordinary people rarely have too many concepts about the world, politics, or the future, because most ordinary people are busy making a living. If they can't do anything for a day, they have no food for a day.
They are all occupied by most of the work. Even if they have some leisure time, they will pursue some of the simplest entertainment. The extreme ones are like Sanhe Master, an Internet cafe for one yuan an hour, water for two yuan, and five yuan
Money means a happy day.
Whether this kind of simple happiness is good or bad, let’s put it aside for the moment. Let’s just say that the rulers of these feudal dynasties in Xu County, as the Han Dynasty, are not willing for the people under their rule to think more about something...
Because these superiors know in their hearts that if even these grassroots people start to think passively or proactively, the problem will be big. Regarding the Hussars’ series of actions in Jingzhou, all relevant news only stays at the upper levels, and even
It only flows among the top part, that is, among the core people surrounding Cao Cao.
Information is an important resource, and thinking is a precious ability. Most people in society do not want those at the bottom to have such abilities, so the propaganda basically says that thinking is good, and you will be happy, and life is so hard.
, why can’t you be happy?
Don't think about it.
Do not ask.
After thinking about it and asking, he would say, "Would you like some candy? Here you go."
If you refuse to eat sweets...
Cheng Yu's face was gloomy. Well, basically speaking, Cheng Yu rarely looked gloomy when he sat in the hall and said in a cold voice: "Mr. Xin has been gossiping a lot recently... His heart is worth killing..."
Although the Xin family is considered to be a Yingchuan clan at present, if we trace its ancestors, the Xin family actually originated from Longxi, after the Qiang general Xin Wuxian was defeated. Xin Ping was in Jizhou, and with the fall of Yuan Shao, he also followed the trend
He joined Cao Cao's camp, but his younger brother Xin Pimo went to Chang'an.
Therefore, although Xun Yu and others blocked the news and tried their best to keep the Shandong nobles from contact, or selectively released some information from Chang'an, they could not block the exchange of letters between the Xin family...
This is very troublesome.
Man Chong glanced at Cheng Yu and didn't say anything, or in other words, he didn't want to say anything to Cheng Yu. In Man Chong's view, Cheng Yu was too violent and would kill the whole family at every turn. It was not like that.
Just kill one of them yourself. After arresting Xin Ping, what else can you do not to confess? Then he will be beheaded to serve as a warning to others.
What did Xin Ping do? In fact, it is not a heinous thing, because everyone knows that someone from the Xin family is in Chang'an, so when they want to know some additional information, they will go to Xin Ping, and Xin Ping is not like
It was Xun Yu who was so cautious that he said what he shouldn't have said during the banquet.
Of course, Mr. Xin may not be careless to this extent, but is showing off to a certain extent to elevate his status, just like a driver in the imperial capital. When talking about a certain political figure, he will inevitably say, "I know that one, and that one is
My buddy!』
As for the leaked news...
For example, General Hussar granted permission for the Sima clan to mine in the Western Regions, appointed Zheng Xuan as an admonishment official, appointed female officials...
Although these things are not a big deal strictly speaking, they will inevitably make some Shandong nobles feel uneasy. They point to the west and say how round the moon in the west is, but Boss Cao can’t see it? Let’s not talk about other things for now.
Even the Hussars can let Sima mine gold mines. So here, Boss Cao will let us mine the iron mines. Isn’t that excessive? It’s just iron ores, so we shouldn’t be so stingy?
Chirping chirping.
As for whether this would take advantage of Cao Cao, or make matters worse, these people naturally didn't care. In their opinion, the whole world is not as big as their family's business. Besides, they are also representatives of public opinion and the common people.
The first choice naturally represents the people's livelihood and public opinion, and what's wrong with putting forward some "benign" suggestions?
The most troublesome thing is not the problem of money. After all, what problem can money solve?
The key is that there is no money...
Ahem, wrong. The key is that there are some problems that money cannot solve, such as female officials.
Xin Xianying has become an official!
When Xin family conveyed this news, she was naturally very proud, but the question is, is there a place for female officials in Xu County? There are not enough positions for men, so who can care about giving more positions to women?
You must know that the important positions now are all in the hands of the Cao family and the Xiahou family, and the rest will be divided by Xun Yu and others. As for the other people...
Under such circumstances, how could there be a female official system?
But the problem is, women’s sense of comparison and vanity is not much worse than that of men, or is it stronger? And this sense of comparison and vanity, whether they are the same or slightly different, have led to this period of time
A large number of Shandong noble ladies are discussing whether that girl Xin Xianying, whose hair has not even faded off, can become an official. Mom, uh, why can't Ben Guliang?
Chi Chi Chi Chi.
This is very troublesome.
The trouble was so great that Xun Yu and others had to sit down and discuss it.
Xun Yu closed his eyes.
"Your Majesty!" Cheng Yu looked at Xun Yu and said, "Now my lord is in a chaotic situation. If you make a mistake, it will be catastrophic. Since we can't go into battle to kill generals at the moment, we should also relieve your lord from worries! Xu County is now,
Only one word!』
Cheng Yu glanced away from Xun Yu, and then looked around, "It's just "stable"!"
Cheng Yu believed that the cause of the chaos was Xin's nonsense, so he started directly from the root cause. Killing Xin would firstly frighten others, and secondly, it would also plug subsequent loopholes. Of course, the most profound root cause came from Piao.
Cavalry General, there is nothing we can do about this for the time being, we can only do what we can first.
"Let's call Xin Zhongzhi to come..." Xun Yu said slowly, "That's not enough... If Xin Zhongzhi refuses to repent, it's not too late to talk about other things..."
Man Chong was stunned and frowned a little, "Xun Lingjun... you need to be cautious about this matter..." The prudence Man Chong said of course did not mean the prudence in letting Xun Yu deal with the Xin family, but another meaning of prudence.
Xun Yu smiled slightly and nodded to Man Chong, "I also know Boning's intention...but I still have to do this..."
Behind the smile is Xun Yu's silent sigh...
……(* ̄(エ) ̄)……
The chaos in Jingzhou is still continuing.
The armies of Cao and Sun were facing each other near Dangyang, and in Linchuan County, Changsha County, southern Jingzhou, and other places, fighting was frequent and corpses were everywhere.
After discovering some new uneasy changes, Han Xuan also mobilized his troops and launched a rapid attack on Jiangdong Army's defense line. However, Changsha County was originally the frontline area of Jiangdong Army. Before the war with Liu Biao, he
Although it is not a foolproof preparation, it is still enough to withstand the attack. The camp is stacked on top of each other, and the layers of defense are like an iron plate. Han Xuan hit the general with his head and almost broke his head.
Blood flow.
However, Han Xuan finally took advantage of the numbers and divided the attack. He finally broke through the original defense line of Jiangdong soldiers, reached the foot of Linxiang City, and surrounded the city.
To be continued...
