Mystery makes me strong

Chapter 2076
The head of the Cui family had no choice but to talk to these short-sighted peers in the family.

On the contrary, a junior volunteered and said: "I heard that Youzhou Dutinghou, Zhonglang General Gongsun Zan is brave and good at fighting. He has defeated the Hu people outside the Great Wall many times. We can invite him to fight."

That junior's name is Cui Cheng, and his characters are not good.

"No, what you said is wrong. Gongsun Zan is from Youzhou, and we are from Jizhou. Isn't inviting him here to drive out tigers at the front door and wolves at the back door?" Someone immediately objected.

They didn't want to be disturbed by the war in the days when they had just calmed down.

Fighting requires food and grass.

It was also the first time for them to know how many peasants they would conquer and how much food and grass they would force when the army crossed the border.

Although they are big families, there are also people in the court.

But now the eunuchs are in power, as they are a famous family of Qingliu, it is not easy to make friends with eunuchs, so they can only bear with it.

If you don't give it, the yellow scarf will come to get it.

Every family did not know how much blood was shed.

Fortunately, ten months are over.

You must know that Jizhou is the hardest-hit place for the Yellow Turban.

Guangzong and Julu all happened in Jizhou.

Even so, Jizhou was still a large state with the largest number of household registrations, which shows that the north was still absolutely strong in the Three Kingdoms era.

This is also the ultimate reason why Jinergy is unified.

It is precisely because of the largest number of household registrations, the most complicated, the most intense conflicts, and the deepest foundation of the Yellow Turbans here, that's why they chose this place as their base.

So from the beginning they picked the wrong place.

Lack of strategic vision.

Unlike Wen Rensheng, who found a corner from the beginning.

The mountains are the corners of the hinterland.

"That's right, and the man from Taihang Mountain is located in the mountain, Gongsun is good at cavalry, how can he go into the mountain and strangle him? No, no, let's make friends with this person. After all, there is no one who can guard against a thief for a thousand days, but one who can be a thief for a thousand days." You said humanely.

The head of the Cui family swept over and had no choice but to invite these people away, leaving only Cui Cheng.

"Cui Cheng, I think that Taihang mountain man has great ambitions in his chest, and he must be the one who destroys the Han family in the future."

"Patriarch, why don't we invite him to my house and lay an ambush to assassinate him?" Cui Cheng was eager to express himself.

He is just a bastard from a separated family, and he is valued because of his tricks.

"It's okay to deal with those young and reckless people, but I think this Taihang Mountain person is obviously a cautious person. Otherwise, he would not let the sheriff of the great plain land not do it, but stay in the cottage. He is cautious. Very much, if we fail to invite him and expose our intention to harm him, then there will be endless troubles." Cui Family Patriarch said.

"Then I'll ask Gongsun to calm him down."

"That's not right. He didn't rebel, and now he still has an official position bought from the court. Gongsun has nothing to do with him. He is just busy suppressing rebels. Even if you say it, he won't come." Cui's family The Patriarch thought about it, but shook his head.

"Are we going to watch him develop and grow like this?" Cui Cheng also went to study this Taihang Mountain man.

The other party taught those poor children and selected talents from them, and they were able to form a whole from bottom to top.

With students as the core, establish a set of operating systems that can collect taxes, collect food, train troops, defend, and attack. This is a small tribe in the mountains, and even the imperial court.

Compared with him, Zhang Jiao was far behind.

To be honest, if it wasn't for the Cui family, the head of the Cui family would have wanted to go to Conglong immediately.

As long as the Taihang Mountain people don't die halfway, the world will almost certainly belong to the other party.

But what the other party did was obviously to make the world have no family.

"Let me think about it again, I'll go visit some great sages first." Cui Family Patriarch said.

"I don't know who the Patriarch mentioned, but the junior is willing to help." Cui Cheng said.

"There are many sages in the Xun family in Yingchuan, but the journey is a bit far away. The Yellow Turban has just been destroyed, and thieves are everywhere. It is very dangerous." Of course, the Patriarch of the Cui family will not really go, he said that he wanted Cui Cheng to go.

"The junior is not talented, and he is willing to run this life for the Patriarch."

"Okay, it's not too late. The number of Taihang Mountain people is increasing day by day. I predict that he will leave the mountain within a few years. You leave this afternoon. I will prepare ten guards and 20 good horses for you." Cui Family Patriarch said.

Cui Cheng immediately bowed: "Follow the Lord's order."

Soon, Cui Chengcheng was on the road.

During the trek along the way, I did encounter several bandits on the road, and I was able to escape only because of good horses and good guides.

Finally came to Yingchuan.

Ying Chuan is also making yellow scarves.

Just subsided.

Fortunately, nothing major happened to Xun's family.

After staying in a hotel, I posted a post and waited for the other party to reply.

The other party returned quickly, and they went to see him early the next morning.

After talking for a while in the reception room, the Xun family invited the other party into the secret room.

There are three people in the secret room.

One is Xun Yu, and the other is Xun Chen.

In the future, one will vote for Cao and the other will vote for Yuan.

They will enter the court in a few years, and they are all at home at this time.

In the future, he will definitely not be able to enter the dynasty. It has to be said that this is the butterfly effect that Wen Rensheng will inevitably trigger.

In short, there are too many discerning people.

Especially at the end of the Han Dynasty, the ministers chose the emperor, and the emperor chose the ministers, and rushed in both directions.

The Xun family has many talents, and each has his own choice.

Whether they did it on purpose or not, it doesn't matter, the important thing is that they chose the right one and passed it down through the family line.

Wen Rensheng's quiet rise, although only ten months old, is still in its infancy, and still attracts a lot of attention.

After all, his rise is really different.

And it is a place overlooking Gyeonggi.

Many aristocratic families who pay attention to the general trend of the world will naturally notice his power.

"His power has already been established, and it is difficult to shake." Xun Chen shook his head and said, "In less than five years, the land of Jizhou, where Hebei is located, will belong to him."

The head of the Xun family smiled and stroked his beard without saying a word.

Compared with his own Maxima, Qinghe Cui Jiakong is famous, and few people can be called superheroes.

"I really don't know where his talents come from. Judging from his governance and army, he has a system. If he is less than twenty, if he is not a monster, it is a gift from God." Xun Yu asked doubtfully.

He asked himself that he is also talented and good at governing the people, but compared with this Taihang Mountain native, the news he got from those business travelers and the news he got from his family, combined, his methods are just a schoolboy .

Scholars at this time are far from being imprisoned in their thinking.

Just like Zhuge Liang, he never discriminated against business travelers, and vigorously developed the textile industry in Shu as a military supply.

Practical first.

This is also the last great era in which the various schools of thought can show their brilliance.

The Han Dynasty respected Confucianism, but it was not exclusive. The Han family had its own system, mixed with kings and domineers.

"Could it be impossible to control it? From my observation of his behavior, it is to dig out the roots of my famous family, the foundation of the family." Cui Cheng said unwillingly.

Xun Yu shook his head: "What is a distinguished family? Three generations have been eager to learn. People are different, and clans are different. The people of Taihang Mountain are just widely educated. A clan who is studious and motivated will naturally stand out."

"That's right, what my brother said is true. I'm going to study with people from the Taihang Mountains, but the Yellow Turban hasn't been destroyed before, and the road is not safe." Xun Chen also nodded greatly.

As the world's best planners, they naturally have great confidence in their own minds.

I firmly believe that if you go to the people of Taihang Mountain to study, you will naturally achieve great success.

It is definitely better than those poor children from poor families.

The fact is the same, after all, they have a solid foundation of knowledge, and have a good practice environment.

Cui Cheng understood immediately.

Facing the true sage born out of nowhere, the Taihang Mountain Man, their Cui family chose to be conservative and hostile; while the Xun family chose to accept and learn.

The high and low are immediately clear.

There was no other way, he had no choice but to say: "From my point of view, he established his own system, and in the future it will be necessary to replace the Han. Should the two of you also support it?"

Xun Chen was silent.

Xun Yu frowned and said: "Because he wants to replace the Han, we have to go deep into the sect and learn his way so as to counter it."

Cui Cheng nodded, and finally said: "Is there really no one, no soldiers, no generals to fight against? General, eunuch, Your Majesty?"

Xun Chen shook his head and said with a smile: "Taihang Mountain people take Taihang Mountain as their foundation, set up a large fortress, guard the dangerous points, reclaim wasteland, and have springs inside. Outsiders with a crowd of [-] are enough to resist."

"Now Your Majesty is obsessed with pleasure, and his ambition has faded early. The two princes are young, with eunuchs inside and relatives outside. They are fighting endlessly. The matter of the yellow scarf has already consumed a lot."

"But there are local braves and governors everywhere..." Cui Cheng asked again.

"The villager is more than self-preserving. Those with short-sightedness and long-term vision have no military power at this time." Xun Chen shook his head.

Cui Cheng completely understood.

At the same time, fear emerged deeply.

Good fighters have no illustrious feats.

This Taihang Mountain person settled down quietly, and he fell into a place where many forces had no time or were unwilling to take care of them.

The mountains are barren, and they are tasteless, and how many people are willing to spend a lot of trouble for tasteless?
So he watched Taihang Mountain people commit treasonous acts, and responded indifferently.

"Damn it, isn't this the same as the previous Yellow Turban incident? Someone warned the court a few years ago, but the court turned a deaf ear to it..." Cui Cheng suddenly realized.

"That's right, the whole court has long since lost the will to make progress, and just muddled through." Xun Chen didn't say a word, which was basically the case in the last years of the dynasty.

What's more, His Majesty still sells officials and nobles. Officials spend most of their energy on accumulating official money and promotion money. How can anyone be patient and get rid of the evil?

"When the Yellow Turban was flattened before, a general emerged in the south. They were Sima Sun Jian and Sun Wentai of the other tribe. They might be able to compete with each other, but the distance is too far to reach them." Xun Yu thought for a while and then sighed.

"Hehe, my brother thinks highly of Sun Sima. He is more than fierce but not resourceful. If he confronts the people of Taihang Mountain, his entire army will be wiped out in just a short while. According to the news from the merchants, there are now [-] elite soldiers in Taihang Mountain, and Sun Sima is no more than an elite soldier." There are more than a thousand men, and most of them are men from the south, how do you fight in the northern mountains? If you don't fight, you will die, and if you fight, you will die." Xun Chen shook his head and said.

"The battlefield is not my specialty. My nephew Xun You is good at military strategy. Please invite him over."

Then the head of the Xun family left and asked Xun You to come over.

So the four of them discussed the general trend again in the secret room.

This is also one of the favorite things of today's resourceful people.

"Although the people of Taihang Mountain are strong, they also have a fatal weakness." Xun You's words were astonishing.

In fact, he is six years older than Xun Yu, it's just a matter of seniority, so he is a nephew.

It doesn't matter if you don't see each other often, but it's a bit embarrassing if you still meet every day.

"Oh, I would like to hear more about it." Cui Cheng asked quickly.

"He is too young, his foundation is too shallow, and his reputation is not enough. The family will not be convinced. It is okay to rule in the mountains. Once he goes out to conquer the world, he will be opposed and delayed everywhere. Therefore, once his methods are learned by outsiders, he can be used. Someone took the opportunity to grow stronger, and then devoured him in turn." Xun You said confidently.

Cui Cheng suddenly realized.

At the same time, he also understood the huge gap between himself and the Xun family.

People are learning and choosing other masters at the same time, but he only thinks about how to kill the Taihang Mountain people by his own strength.

The other party said yes.

Learn the skills of the Taihang Mountain people, and then find a prestigious family prince to join him, and then do him in turn.

If Wen Rensheng heard this, he would definitely laugh.

If his method is really learned, it will not be adopted by all the nobles of the family. They will only learn some skills, but it is impossible to learn the Tao.

Just like me in the Qing Dynasty, it is impossible to learn the way of the West no matter what.

Because those Taoisms are meant to bury the Qing Dynasty.

This is true.

After training the new army hard, the new army became a gravedigger.

The reason is that the new army has learned new ideas from the West, and this is just a few.

If they dare to learn the way of Wen Rensheng, they will first betray the interests of the gentry.

What is the greatest interest of the gentry?
One is the land, and the other is the fame obtained by bragging and showing off, and then controlling the main channel to become an official.

Relying on recommending each other, recommending each other, and then controlling the officialdom.

This is also the reason why Liu Hong wants to make troubles. He was also ambitious at the beginning. He wanted to break this situation and open more upward channels.

As a result, after several times, I still couldn't resist the general trend.

Because he couldn't find a reliable ally class.

It is impossible to rely on eunuchs and relatives. They are only a small part of the interest class and cannot represent the broad social foundation.

So when Xun You said this, after hearing Xun You's words, he felt something was wrong.

Brother Xun Chen also shook his head slightly.

"Nephew, there is a big loophole in what you said." Xun Chen shook his head.

"What loophole?" Xun You felt dissatisfied, but his face was still respectful.

Just because of seniority, being called nephew by these two little guys every day is enough.

"You can learn his ways, but you can't make full use of them. If you can't make full use of them, you can't defeat them." Xun Chen shook his head.

As Yuan Shao's chief counselor later, he also had two brushes.

At the beginning, he helped Yuan Shao get Jizhou easily, but then he didn't make any noise. That's because he saw Yuan Shao's problem, stopped talking, and didn't escape to Cao Cao.

"Can't make full use of them? How many heroes are there in the world? Why can't we make full use of them?"

"Tell me to see it alone."

"Captain Cao Cao, who has just emerged in the anti-rebellion Yellow Turban, is a man of ambition and has a deep strategy. I think there must be someone who will succeed in the future." Xun You said one person.

This shows the gap between Cao Cao and Liu Bei.

At this time, Liu Bei did not have any reputation. Cao Cao had long been famous. He had killed eunuchs before, and now he has military merits. He has long been in the field of vision of many counselors.

This is also the reason why Xun Yu defected to the other party's command and successfully recommended many talents.

People have already tossed out their fame.

Although there is no territory, but with fame, talent and family background, he can attract the gentry, and with the support of the gentry, he has a territory.

And Liu Bei wasted too much precious time in the early days, and later he was able to compete with Cao Cao for a while, and defeated Cao Cao twice.

It can already be said to be a success.
