Jiangdong, compared with the attention received by the major princes of the Central Plains, Sun Ce, Wang Lang, Yan Baihu, and Liu Xuan, who at most occupied a county, received much less attention.
Liu Xie's list text naturally did not pull down the Jiangdong area, although Yuan Shu directly expelled the imperial court envoys, and also issued an order to rule all places, the imperial court's list text should be torn up immediately, and the imperial court envoys were not allowed to enter the country.
But in fact, since last year in the hands of Liu Xie, after suffering a big loss, losing troops and losing the city and land, Yuan Shu's control over Jiangdong has been constantly weakening, especially after Sun Ce won a few battles, defeated Liu Xuan, completely occupied Qu'a, and became more and more prestigious.
At the beginning, Sun Ce presented the jade seal of the country, although it was indeed exhaustive, in addition to hoping to get Yuan Shu's funding, he also did not have the intention of pitting Yuan Shu.
With Sun Ce's understanding of Yuan Shu, after getting the jade seal of the country, it is not certain whether he can be the first prince of the world with peace of mind.
And the truth was as Sun Ce expected, but what really surprised Sun Ce was Yuan Shu's madness, which had the audacity to insult and kill the three dukes, which completely angered the imperial court.
And then the war between Yuan Shu and the imperial court, even more disdainful of Yuan Shu, although the imperial court has become increasingly prosperous in recent years, but after all, Guanzhong has just experienced a great chaos, and according to the detailed information later, the soldiers and horses are only 30,000, and as Yuan Shu's subordinates to now, Sun Ce is still nominally controlled by Yuan Shu, Sun Ce is very clear about the details of Yuan Shu, not to mention, 200,000 soldiers and horses can definitely be taken, but the final result is that the 30,000 soldiers and horses of the imperial court have lost their armor and abandoned their armor, not to mention the loss of soldiers, even such a large county as Nanyang has been lost.
This caught Sun Ce, who wanted to make Yuan Shu emperor and take the opportunity to break away from Yuan Shu, a little unprepared, the degree of cheating of this teammate was really unexpected, even if it was Zhou Yu, although he thought that the imperial court would win, but it should also be a tragic victory, who would have thought that Yuan Shu not only failed to bring a blow to the imperial court, but even the big county of Nanyang was lost.
In this way, the plan to draw a clear line with Yuan Shu by using Yuan Shu to become the emperor will be in vain, but Sun Ce is not in a hurry, with his understanding of Yuan Shu, even if there is no such thing, with Yuan Shu's character, sooner or later there will be chaos, no, the opportunity is here again.
"Gong Jin, what do you think" In the small courtyard, Sun Ce, who had just finished dancing a set of marksmanship, wiped the sweat on his face, sat at the stone table in the courtyard, and didn't care about his image, although he and Zhou Yu were not brothers, but they were like brothers, in front of Zhou Yu, they didn't have to care about the so-called monarch's majesty.
"What the Son of Heaven did, the benefits are in the Qianqiu, it's just" Zhou Yu looked at the list text, shook his head with a smile and said: "Go too quickly, if you can delay it for another two years, the results of this defeat of Yuan Shu will be completely absorbed, although the princes will not agree, but under the rule of the Son of Heaven, it is not difficult to implement, now Nanyang is newly determined, and the major families are hesitating. ” When Sun Ce heard this, he shook his head and sighed: "It's a pity, we are separated from Nanyang in Jingzhou, but it is impossible to attack." ” Zhou Yu glanced at Sun Ce in surprise, and then said with a smile: "But a woman, why should Bo Fu take it to heart, not to mention that there is already a wife in the family, how can he ignore this is not a hero's act because of a concubine." ” Qiao Rui repented of the marriage and sent the Qiao sisters into the palace, so that Sun Ce was always in his heart, he really liked the girl, as for Zhou Yu, although he also felt a little sorry for Xiaoqiao, but he had great ambitions, and the two sides talked about it, it was only a few faces, although the face was not very good-looking, but it was not enough to put personal grudges into this national event.
This brother of his own, everything is good, courageous, courageous, heroic, good at making friends, only one thing, that is, he cares too much about personal feelings, put it on ordinary people, this is a good thing, but on a monarch, it is by no means a good thing, but people's character is difficult to change, Zhou Yu can only mention one or two, but he didn't expect Sun Ce to change.
To tell the truth, if Sun Ce really becomes the cold-blooded and ruthless king who only knows how to weigh the pros and cons, Zhou Yu will have to restrain his edge, it is precisely because of Sun Ce's qualities that Zhou Yu, a famous general, can be willing to serve and display his talents without scruples.
Sun Ce spread his hands: "Now that the imperial court has sent this list down, the Jiangdong family will definitely not agree, how should we choose Yuan Shu has already ordered that all counties and counties expel the imperial court envoys, whether we respect the imperial court or Yuan Shu" "Respect the court, but also respect Yuan Shu."
Zhou Yu smiled.
"Uh" Sun Ce raised his sword eyebrows, and glared at Zhou Yu angrily: "Talking about people." ” Zhou Yu was blocked by Sun Ce, and glared at Sun Ce angrily: "After all, the imperial court represents orthodoxy, and it openly violates the imperial decrees, Yuan Shu did it, but we can't do it, don't forget, your current official position is not given by Yuan Shu, but canonized by the imperial court; And respecting Yuan Shu is not to conflict with Yuan Shu, and not to act is, but secretly, it is necessary to gather craftsmen to make this engraving printing technique. ” Zhou Yu escaped from his arms with a thread-bound paper book, and said with a smile: "Regardless of personal grievances, this engraving printing technique is a weapon to break the pattern of the Han dynasty for four hundred years, that is, the imperial court was finally defeated, this thing, we must continue to do it, but the bookstore cannot be built, that will lead to fire, but the township school must be built." ” "Xiangxue" Sun Ce frowned, he really didn't understand this thing.
"Although the bookstore can attract the world's cold scholars, but since the imperial court has opened a bookstore in Chang'an, Luoyang, and Wancheng, we are waiting to do it at this time, and the attraction of the cold door is by no means as good as the imperial court, but it is better to sell the family a face, and directly refuse to establish a bookstore, but also make the Jiangdong scholars not to reject us, and the township school, in my opinion, is the most critical part of the Son of Heaven's actions, aiming to cultivate a large number of talents, for the use of the imperial court, this is a solid policy, more importantly, because of the attraction of the bookstore, Nowadays, there are not many people who really attach importance to the township school, and it just happens to sell the court a face, but the township school cannot be as stated in the list, let the court be founded, that is to make a wedding dress for the court, the wise man does not take it, this township school must be built by us.
Zhou Yu said with a smile.
"A book of Analects, what kind of talent can be taught" Sun Ce pouted disdainfully when he heard this, he didn't know the talent if he was literate, otherwise there were a few people who didn't know the signboard of the storefront on the street.
"This is the genius of the Son of Heaven."
Zhou Yu said with a smile: "Bo Fu thinks so, and most families probably think the same way, but with township school, why can't there be county school, county school, and even state school?"
"You mean" When Sun Ce heard this, his eyes froze, and he looked at Zhou Yu in surprise.
"Township learning will not attract too many people's attention, the Son of Heaven can secretly investigate in the township school, select gifted students, and when the time is ripe, establish a higher level of learning, which is equivalent to giving those low-level people a promotion channel, and then in this, teach more advanced knowledge, and then from this higher level of learning, select the right talent to enter the official office, how to do it, Yu is not clear, but the Son of Heaven will make a fuss on this point in the future, and when the time comes, it is the time to really shake the foundation of the scholars."
Speaking of this, Zhou Yu couldn't help but be a little amazed at Liu Xie's idea, in this way, supplemented by engraving and printing, in a few years, Liu Xie can completely get back the right to recommend talents from the hands of the family, and the influence of the family on the government will be weakened to the maximum.
Seeing that Sun Ce was still a little ignorant, Zhou Yu patiently explained: "Let's put it this way, Bo Fu thinks that the most important thing to manage a force is those rights."
"Military power," Sun Ce said without hesitation.
His brows jumped fiercely, and Zhou Yu said, "There is more?"
"This" Sun Ce carefully recalled his experience along the way: "Money and food are also very important, and there is also employment" "Not bad" Zhou Yu stroked his palm and smiled: "The army can be a sign, as long as there is a territory, there is no problem to sign the army, but to sign the army, it is inseparable from money and food, and your own territory needs to be stable, orderly and prosperous, and it is also inseparable from the employment of people, so if you want to manage a force well, the most important thing is not the army, it is nothing more than money and food, and employing people." ” "The Royal Chamber of Commerce is doing business all over the world, refined salt, glaze, and Hanxing plough can provide a steady stream of financial resources for the imperial court, and with money and food, it is natural to recruit troops, and the imperial court is now, fierce generals such as clouds, Lu Bu, Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun and even Tai Shici who is far away in Qingzhou, which is not a general who can take charge alone, such as today's son has the royal business house in hand, not only does not have to be subject to the family in terms of financial resources, but can even use this to balance the family, and the family can now balance the Son of Heaven, and only the talent."
Sun Ce suddenly said: "No wonder even in the face of the opposition of the world's families, the Son of Heaven still insists on going his own way and wants to promote this engraving and printing technology to the world, so it is." ” "Therefore, this township school must be in our hands, with the Son of Heaven in Chang'an to attract the attention of the family, we can set up a township school in Jiangdong, establish their own caravan, and do business in the world, and when this matter is over, no matter whether the Son of Heaven wins or loses, Bo Fu no longer has to be subject to the family."
"Hey, although I'm unwilling, I'll do as Gongjin says."
Sun Ce smiled and said.
"The lord is wise, but before that, let's talk about whether to pacify Jiangdong first."
Zhou Yu also smiled.
"Ha, it's really not easy to hear you call a certain lord."
Sun Ce was in a good mood at the moment, and laughed loudly: "Wang Lang, Yan Baihu and the like, I regard them as dogs, don't let them lose their interest, come and come, it's rare that Gong Jin is willing to call me a lord today, and talk to me first, that Zhang Ying, Xue Li and the like, vainly call generals, but they are not my three-in-one place, but they are suffocated, come and fight with me." ” When Zhou Yu heard this, he shook his head with a wry smile, took off his sword from his body, and fought with Sun Ce. t1706231537:
