Chapter 573: Achieving Certain Results, Four Bad News (Two Chapters in One)


The major military commanders have already set off with their armies, while Qingcang is directing the battle in Huaxia City.

This kind of small war can be left directly to them.

In the next few months, good news continued.

It can be said that the entire Chinese army was invincible.

In just a period of time, it conquered dozens of cities, especially some of the larger ancient cities such as Yuyang, Juyong, and Qingci. , Lecheng, Qinghe, Guantao, Liyang, Dongpingling, Gaoyuan, Tuyin, Huguan, Puyang and other places.

And this number is not increasing continuously.

It can be said that it radiates outwards with Huaxia City as the center.

At the same time, a large number of civilian officials and military generals led their troops to take over various cities.

China's demand for civilian officials is still rising.

China does not lack military generals, but it lacks literati who can manage cities, implement Qing Cang's orders, and carry out reforms.

They are the key to rule, and the army is only used for attack and defense.

Civilians are still needed to help in the rear.

What Qingcang wants to achieve is the separation of military and political affairs, that is, the separation of military and political affairs, rather than the integration of military and political affairs.

Let’s talk about the advantages and disadvantages of the two.

The advantage of integrating military and political power is the high efficiency of local governance.

The disadvantage is that local independence is enhanced, which is not conducive to Qingcang’s centralized control.

The separation of military and political affairs is the opposite.

To give two examples of the integration of military and political affairs and the separation of military and political affairs, during the Anshi Rebellion, Xuanzong delegated power to local governments and expanded the army in order to quell the rebellion.

This resulted in the military and political control of the vassal towns, which could not be eliminated, and the Tang Dynasty was destroyed.

In the Song Dynasty, Zhao Kuangyin learned from the lessons of the previous dynasties and emphasized the importance of civilian officials, governing military affairs with civilized affairs, and separating military power.

Although it completely eliminated the danger of local self-reliance with troops, it also weakened the army's combat effectiveness.

But Qingcang's separation of military and political affairs means that all power is in his own hands, and he has his own ideas on the combat effectiveness of the army.

He is both civil and military, and at least for a long period of time, he will still use this form of centralization to facilitate his rule.

On this day, Qing Cang was in the meeting hall in the main city.

There were about ten people from Wenwu there.

At this time, Yang Xiaomei entered the meeting hall and reported: "Qing Emperor, I have some news to report here. " "please say" Originally, Qingcang was discussing some major matters with Guo Jia, Xun Yu and Zhuge Liang.

The three think tanks have become his right-hand assistants in governing the entire Huaxia Kingdom.

Now it is different from the Huaxia City that used to call itself a city.

The state machine is very large and sophisticated, and any mistake will have irreparable consequences.

Now it seems that the deliberations have to be interrupted because of the arrival of these news.

Yang Xiaomei continued: "Four pieces of news, but none of them are good news."

As soon as these words came out, everyone began to whisper among themselves.

They were very curious about what the four bad news were.

Because there are not many threats to China.

"oh" Upon hearing this, Qing Cang was already mentally prepared.

"The first thing is about the commander of our army.

According to our intelligence department, the commander of our army, Zou Wei, encountered resistance when he was cleaning up the remnants of Cao Cao in Yanjin City.

Unfortunately, he was killed by Sima Yi.

The army suffered serious losses, and the rest of the army returned directly to our country."

Yanjin is only more than a hundred kilometers away from Xudu.

It is reasonable to encounter resistance from Sima Yi there, because he is about to hit someone's doorstep.

At this time, Qingcang asked: "Didn't we agree that we can only attack within a thousand miles of Huaxia City as the center?

Xudu is already more than 1,200 miles away from us.

Did they listen to my words?

And before I set off, I said, don’t touch these people within two hundred miles of Xudu.”

His tone was a little irritable, which was obviously the result of not taking his words seriously.

He told the army commanders before they set off that they should not fight within 200 miles of Xudu, Cao Cao's home base, because there was Sima Yi there.

He would only wait until other places were cleared before going to deal with Sima Yi, and Zou Wei was obviously He did not obey Qingcang's order and attacked Yanjin City directly, and was finally plotted by Sima Yi.

Yang Xiaomei said: "We don't know why Commander Zou Wei went there."

Military orders came from her, and all major military commanders would report wherever they went, but if someone deliberately concealed it, she didn't know.

Qingcang said quickly: "Commander Yang, I don't mean to blame you."

Yang Xiaomei's expression softened slightly, but she did have some responsibilities.

When something big like this happens, everyone has some responsibility.

Guo Jiazhi said: "Maybe he did this because Commander Zou was too eager for success and wanted to share some of Emperor Qing's worries as soon as possible."

This is probably the only explanation, because Zou Wei was too anxious, which led to a big mistake.

Now every soldier is crucial to the Huaxia Kingdom, and there cannot be any losses.

This time the army commander died in the line of duty, it will undoubtedly have an impact on the morale of the military.

Qingcang didn't want to delve deeper into this matter.

He said: "This kind of thing must be avoided in the future.

Send an order to the army commanders not to get too close to Xu Du.

As for Commander Zou, find a way to get his body, bury him properly, and do a good job of comforting the returning troops."

No matter what, Zou Wei accompanied Qing Cang to conquer the world, and he was worried about the whole country.

His death also made everyone very sad.

No matter how you calculate it, he sacrificed his life for the country and deserves to be treated favorably.

Those in the logistics department will naturally handle it.

"yes" Then someone went down to make arrangements.

And Qingcang asked again: "Commander Yang, what is this second thing about?"

The first bad news has already made people very sad, and this second one may not be a good thing either.

"The second thing is that Cao Pi has been placed under house arrest by Sima Yi.

With his huge power, Sima Yi proclaimed himself emperor and named his country Jin."

Qingcang also didn't understand why Sima Yi named himself Emperor of Jin and named his country Jin, so he asked: "Oh, why Jin?"

Xun Yu's words directly solved Qing Cang's doubts.

He said: "Sima Yi's hometown of Wen County in Hanoi was originally part of the pre-Qin Jin Dynasty, so it is called Jin."

That is, whether it is Sima Yi or his grandson Sima Yan, the dynasty they established will be called Jin.

This also coincides with history, but it is just that one has his grandfather as the emperor, and the other has his grandson as the emperor.

The difference is 36 years.

"That's it.

Thank you, Staff Officer Xun, for clearing up the confusion."

"Don't dare, don't dare" Qingcang then said: "As for the unstable factor of Sima Yi, I heard Kong Ming say it before, but I didn't expect him to be so fast."

Sima Yi is difficult to deal with, which Zhuge Liang once introduced, and this person cannot be changed by using tactics.

And sure enough, he couldn't wait any longer, so he directly deposed Cao Cao's son and became emperor himself.

At the same time, he must have taken over Cao Cao's army, which was a considerable force.

He probably also wanted to resist the pressure from China.

Guo Jia said: "I think this person must be removed quickly, otherwise he will become a roadblock to our reunification."

Guo Jia is the leader of the war faction.

His worries are not unreasonable, but in fact they are not allowed to do this.

Qing Cang said: "We are in the recovery period at this time, and the nearby princes are also eyeing us.

This needs to be considered in the long term."

The current Chinese military strength is still seriously injured, so it will take several months to recover, and a large number of forces have been dispatched.

At this time, the Chinese military can be said to be relatively empty, but they are not idle either.

A large number of soldiers were sent back because they were all recruited by major military commanders.

However, the combat power of these soldiers was still not enough and they still needed to be trained.

In addition, the princes and countries are dissatisfied with the unification of the Huaxia Kingdom.

If the army is transferred back to fight Sima Yi at this time, a fire may break out in the rear of the Huaxia Kingdom.

By then, the gains will outweigh the losses.

Zhuge Liang also put forward his opinion at this time.

"I also feel that this matter cannot be rushed.

I think with Sima Yi's caution at this time, he probably does not dare to attack our city too ostentatiously.

When we are fully prepared, it will be time to subdue him."

Xun Yu said: "I agree with Kong Ming's opinion."

After Guo Jia thought for a while, he said nothing more because most people disagreed, especially Qingcang.

Qing Cang said: "Then let's leave it like this for now, Commander Yang.

Then we have to rely on you to pay close attention to Sima Yi's movements.

Anyone who has any changes must report them on time."

"Follow your orders" Yang Xiaomei continued: "Then let me talk about the third thing.

After we released the intelligence, we received some small results.

Among them, Sun Yi directly proclaimed himself emperor in Jianye City, today's Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, and his country was named Wu.

And Zhou Yu because he opposed him He became emperor and was demoted from Jianye City."

When Qingcang heard this, he realized that these proclaimed emperors were happening one after another.

From this information, we can know that Zhuge Liang's strategy has achieved a certain effect.

Qingcang said: "That is to release Sun Quan and send people to escort him back to the Kingdom of Wu.

This time, the entire Kingdom of Wu will be turned upside down."

Zhuge Liang took the initiative and said, "Just leave it to me."

"Then thank you Mr.

Kong Ming for your hard work."

"yes" Guo Jia asked very curiously, "What will Mr.

Kong Ming do?"

Zhuge Liang said: "Counsel Guo, I will release the news of Sun Quan's release in advance.

First, I will give the State of Wu a big surprise.

Then there will be two major factions in the State of Wu.

One is to support Sun Quan, and the other is to support Sun Yi.

Sun Yi has military power, but Sun Quan It’s more about connections.

There will definitely be chaos in the entire Wu Kingdom.

Then, ten teams were sent to disguise themselves as Sun Quan and enter the Wu Kingdom.

This was done to protect Sun Quan’s safety and allow our plan to be implemented.”

Zhuge Liang's reply made everyone applaud.

He had budgeted all the things that might happen in the future and made countermeasures in advance.

He had to control the deeper details alone because everything was random.

It changes, and some details will also change as the situation changes.

Qingcang signaled everyone to be quiet and asked: "Okay, what about the fourth thing?"

Yang Xiaomei cleared her throat and said: "This fourth thing is still a matter of proclaiming the emperor.

A big battle broke out between Liu Bei and Liu Zhang.

At this time, Liu Bei was stronger.

He beat Liu Zhang to retreat.

Finally, Liu Bei He also proclaimed himself emperor in Chengdu and named his country Shu."

In just a few months, three people have become emperors.

Everyone thinks that they are the emperor.

Their purpose is very obvious, that is, they want to share a piece of the pie with China.

Sometimes, you and I may be able to live in peace.

This is probably what they really think, you be your emperor, I will be mine, and we will not interfere with each other.

Guo Jia said: "Without Cao Cao's control, Liu Bei still proclaimed himself emperor.

Everything was just as Kong Ming said.

He fought with Liu Zhang and then proclaimed himself emperor."

Xun Yu also said: "What about Liu Zhang now?"

"Returning to Xun's staff, Liu Zhang actually ceded territory to Zhang Lu for help at this time."

Liu Zhang, who had a huge territory and a developed economy, actually turned to Zhang Lu, who had a huge territory.

In fact, this starts with Zhang Lu's background.

Zhang Lu's Hanzhong regime was a powerful force.

Zhang Lu promoted Five Pecks of Rice Taoism in the local area, which united the teachings and the people.

The society was stable and the people's consciousness was high.

Zhang Lu won the hearts of the people.

Especially Zhang Lu's troops were all fanatical religious believers.

When fighting, Be brave and not afraid of death, whoever encounters you will have a headache.

It is reasonable that Liu Zhang would cede land to him and ask for help.

If he doesn't want to perish, this is the only way he can go.

At this time, Zhuge Liang said: "Zhang Lu, who was under Liu Yan, and later Liu Zhang succeeded to the throne, killed Zhang Lu's mother and younger brother on the grounds that Zhang Lu did not obey his orders.

How could Zhang Lu agree to this?

I'm afraid Liu Zhang would be killed." " Yang Xiaomei continued: "Mr.

Kong Ming really knows what will happen.

That's it.

Zhang Lu rejected Liu Zhang's request."

Guo Jia was worried at this time and said: "In this case, Zhang Lu will definitely eat Liu Zhang's territory and become stronger.

Our Chinese general will have Zhang Lu as an enemy."

Xun Yu asked: "Consultant Guo is afraid that Zhang Lu and Liu Bei will join forces."

Zhuge Liang said: "We don't have to worry about Zhang Lu and Liu Bei still having a feud.

No matter whether we take Liu Bei or Zhang Lu first, they will not help each other, and we don't have to worry about them joining together."

Everyone was amazed at Zhuge Liang's reply.

It turned out that this young man under twenty years old had studied the entire world's situation so thoroughly.

He vaguely had the momentum to surpass Guo Jia and Xun Yu.

In fact, it was Zhuge Liang's talent.

He was deeply appreciated by both of them, so why not let him show off sometimes.

Guo Jia and Xun Yu may have different methods of handling things, but the results are not much different.

It can be said that they are on equal footing with Zhuge Liang.

Moreover, what they are good at are also different, and the information they receive is also different.

Judging from Zhuge Liang's performance alone, everyone exclaimed: "Mr.

Kong Ming is really a god."

Zhuge Liang said modestly: "Don't dare to take it, don't take it" And Qingcang said: "This is inseparable from diligence.

I heard that Kong Ming worked day and night to research information from various places.

I hope you can learn more from Kong Ming."

These words made everyone immediately respect Zhuge Liang.
