Three Kingdoms

What does it mean to destroy the enemy country?

How can we achieve long-term peace and stability?

Qin Shihuang said: "I will unify the six kingdoms and unite the world. I will build the Great Wall to control the dragon veins of the nine states, defend our great Qin, and protect our country." I swear this in the name of the First Emperor! I am here to defend the territory and open up the borders, wipe out the four barbarians, and lay the foundation for everything in our Qin Dynasty! Even if I die, I will transform into a dragon soul to protect China forever! This oath is witnessed by the sun and the moon, recognized by heaven and earth, and heard by immortals, devils and gods! 』

Qin II is here

Then it was gone...

Because Ying Zheng did it by himself from beginning to end and talked about himself from beginning to end, and his son had nothing to do, so Qin Er felt that he had nothing to do, so he went to play with Zhao's mother.

"Don't listen to that coward's nonsense! Just listen to my voice and it’s easy! "Liu Bang kicked Ying Zheng over with one kick, and then said, "The wind is blowing and the clouds are flying. Weijiahai is returning to his hometown, and An De is fierce and guarding the four!" Ah ha, Ande, guard the four directions! 』

Emperor Wen of Han Dynasty thought about it, and then suddenly realized. "An De is fierce and guard the four!" It's not that it falls on Shou Sifang, but it's "safe"! How can we let warriors defend the four directions? Isn't this the source of unrest? Cut off the vassal! 』

Seven Kingdoms: "..."

Now that Fei Qian is here, there are many countries in the Western Region.

If Fei Qian is willing, he can kill them one by one.

Or like Qin Shihuang, as long as "I" am still alive, I will "defend the land and open up borders and wipe out the barbarians".

Or maybe it's like Liu Bang's method, which can make the warriors "guarding the four directions" safe.

Then what?

The little prince of Shanshan rushed to Fei Qian and said, "Dear General! Why? Why is this so? ! 』

"What's going on?" Fei Qian asked knowingly.

"He is a cunning snake, he is a ferocious wolf!" "The little prince Shanshan seemed to have suddenly understood a lot of rhetoric and grammar. He waved his arms and emphasized his tone, "General, you must kill him, kill him! 』

Fei Qian smiled, "I am a kind person... I am not good at killing people... Really, I am telling the truth..."

The little prince Shanshan squinted his eyes at Fei Qian with a look like you're a bad old man. Now there is a smell of blood inside and outside the city. So you said you are not good at killing people? As long as you didn't kill these people yourself, they don't count as yours, right?

"Come, come..." Fei Qian waved, "You hate this boy so much, right?" 』

"Tong Grojia...General, his name is Tong Grojia..." the little prince Shanshan said, but he soon stopped arguing about the name, "Yes, I hate him!" He killed my mother, my brother... I want to kill him, I must kill him..."

Seeing that the little prince was in a nagging state again, Fei Qian simply ignored him and went to arrange other matters. After arranging most of the things, Fei Qian turned around and looked at Shan who had calmed down again. Good little prince, "Are you calmer?" 』

The little prince Shanshan finally learned his lesson. He nodded obediently and had a soft smile on his face. He no longer looked like a arrogant person who was always ready to argue.

"Why did you think I came to Shanshan?" Fei Qian said with a smile, "Are you here to take revenge on your behalf?" Or is it to uphold justice in Shanshan? 』

"..." Little Prince Shanshan fell silent.

"We are friends... I will not deceive my friends..." Fei Qian still smiled gently, "I will not deliberately hide it from you to negotiate a deal with that boy." Everything I do is in front of you... My friend, you will gain if you give... What can you give if you want to get something? 』

The little prince Shanshan's eyes widened, and he opened his mouth several times to say something, but in the end he couldn't say a word.

"It's okay, my friend..." Fei Qian smiled, "I give special preferential treatment to my friends... You can make a decision after that boy reports the price... But I hope you can speak next time When you are young, you can think clearly... I am your friend, but not your parent..."

After saying that, Fei Qian patted the little prince Shanshan on the shoulder, and then went straight forward, leading his troops to the city of Wuni.

The little prince Shanshan stood in the wind, his mouth wide open in confusion, and was immediately swallowed up by the dust raised by Fei Qian and other people. He choked on the wind and sand, and couldn't help but close his eyes and bend down to cough.

Coughing so much that my face is covered with snot and tears...

Today, the little prince Shanshan seems to have fallen from a mountain peak into a valley, and also seems to have spent his whole life.

……(〒︿〒)……

Tong Geluojia also felt that this day seemed like a lifetime had passed.

In the morning he was still full of confidence.

Although the hussars arrived at the city, what does it matter?

The Han people who were tied up on top of the city could be delayed for more or less a few days, not much, three or five days would be no problem, right?

The various fortifications and defense systems prepared on the city wall can repel several hussar attacks, right?

Although some of the horse thieves arranged outside were wiped out, the real horse thieves are dead and there are still fake horse thieves. Those horse thieves whose families are in the city, even if they can't compete head-on with the hussars and horses, will still harass them and disrupt the Han people's food routes, right?

In addition, by inciting the people in the city to show them how ferocious the Han people are and how capable they are of killing their own people, it will naturally arouse the Shanshan people's willingness to defend...

With all this going on, if you stick to it for three to five months, what’s the problem?

Then the gods will take action, just like a snowstorm will freeze the pests on the land to death, they will also freeze these Han people to death outside the city one by one!

Everything was perfect originally!

But amid the roar of artillery, everything changed...

Tongluojia didn't want to admit that when he heard the roar of artillery for the first time, he peed his pants. He didn't want others to see or know, and the scene at the time was very scary. As the head of a country, he had no reason to stay in a dangerous place...

Isn't it?

So he led his guards down the city wall in the chaos and returned to the palace.

This behavior can be regarded as saving Tong Geluojia's own life.

But Tong Geluojia never expected that Muni City would be broken like an egg, smashed to pieces by a stone. He had expected that Muni City might be breached, but he never expected that it would be breached so quickly!

Originally, Tong Grojia had prepared the last "dignity" of a king, but unexpectedly, news came from outside the palace...

Can it be redeemed?

Use Shanshan's money, land and population to buy his life?

this……

How did this happen?

Tong Geluojia was shocked at first, and then became angry. He looked like the king of Shanshan Kingdom...

What is your price?

Is it clear?

But now he had to make calculations.

The Han people not only want money, but also land and population.

Land was ceded and compensation was paid.

Plus a "free" market!

What the hell is "freedom"?

There is no problem in ceding land. Anyway, the land occupied by the Han people...

No, that’s not how it’s calculated!

If it is occupied by the Han people, it is called occupied by the Han people, and if it is cut off by ourselves as compensation, it is called compensation!

It turns out that this is how the Han people think...

We can’t just agree to the Han people!

Absolutely not!

If he just "compensates" to the Han people, how will he face his own people in the future? How to face one's ancestors? How do you keep yourself pure before your God?

But if you don't agree or compensate, you will really die...

At the moment when the city was destroyed, Tong Grojia really wanted to commit suicide. He even decided to have his concubines and concubines killed first to avoid being humiliated by the Han people, and then he himself In the end, he sat on the throne, drank a glass of poisonous wine, and died holding the sword. He would rather die than show an unyielding look, so that he could be sung as a hero by the people of Shanshan throughout the ages...

But the suicide process was interrupted.

The courage I had accumulated seemed to have been used up.

Now let Tong Geluojia commit suicide...

He stared at the knife, which was aimed at him coldly.

"No! Tong Geluojia threw the knife aside, "I can't die!" We can't die in vain! I will also lead the Shanshan people to take revenge, and I will have a chance to take revenge in the future! right! That's it, that's it! 』

Tong Geluojia thought about it and finally decided that as long as he retained the core land that was the most loyal and loyal to him, then there would be a chance for a comeback!

Since the Han people gave him a chance to live, he must seize it! He couldn't die now, at least he couldn't die in vain!

Tong Geluojia decided to give the fiefdom that originally belonged to the little prince Shanshan, that is, the cities he had occupied before, as his ransom to the Han people. Wouldn't this kill two birds with one stone? It can not only preserve one's own strength, but also drive a wedge between the Han people and the little prince Shanshan. It's like the Han people dug a hole for themselves and put themselves in it, right?

Although Tong Grojia vaguely knew that there seemed to be something wrong with doing this and that there were some hidden dangers, the current desire to survive prevented him from thinking about this issue in detail...

Fei Qian also arrived under the palace and looked up at the palace.

The palace is roughly divided into three floors, like a "sun", going up the mountain.

Each horizontal grid on the palace wall is raised one level, which is not only impressive, but also very practical in defense. In a normal attack and battle, even if the outer city wall is broken, it will be very difficult to attack this strengthened military fortress.

But now, with the artillery, no one takes such a palace seriously.

Taishi Ci smiled, came to see Fei Qian, and reported to Fei Qian the relevant situation in the city, as well as the inventory arrangements for the warehouses and other matters...

"The warehouses are all empty?" Fei Qian nodded, then turned his gaze to the palace, "I guess... there are probably a lot of things in here?" 』

Taishi Ci nodded, "I also saw some traces of kerosene in the warehouse... There is also some kerosene on the city wall... In this palace, there is probably some... I was originally worried that these thieves would jump over the wall and die..." 』

Fei Qian smiled and was about to say something when he suddenly heard an old voice roaring in the distance. It was heartbreaking, as if someone had stabbed the ass on the spot.

Turning around, he saw Bu Sen.

Old monk Busen seemed to have all the blood on his head and face, and he cursed with a distorted face.

He was not scolding the Han people, but scolding Tong Grojia.

Fei Qian watched with great interest as Bu Sen jumped on his feet, foamed at the mouth, and made various insulting gestures with his hands towards the palace. He looked at Tong Grojia and his relatives for a while. Powerful output without gaps.

It turns out that old monks can also curse?

Isn’t it said that everyone in the family should stop being angry?

"What is he scolding?" Fei Qian asked the translator on the side.

The translator hummed for a while and then said in a low voice: "I just called Groga a donkey. No, he is stupider than a donkey... His head is full of shit..."

Fei Qian nodded, smiled slightly, "That's a good scold." 』

Cutting soil can only be done by rulers with shit heads.

Fei Qian welcomed the surrounding foreign kingdoms, and the rulers of them all had shit in their heads.

In fact, the rulers before the Han Dynasty were not much better. The minister of Shandong during the Huanling period said that he wanted to cut off Beidi and Liangzhou, as if this would avoid trouble...

The larger the country, the more different situations there are in each region. They only think about gaining power and making money, but they don’t think about how to formulate different development plans according to the different situations in different places. If something goes wrong, they just want to blame others. Of course, the arable land in Longyou in the north is not as good as that in Jizhou, Yuzhou and other places in Shandong, but does the entire country only need arable land?

In order to prove that their heads are not filled with shit, these officials from Shandong also want to forcefully instill shit into other people's heads, so that other people will agree that China only has farming, only farming, and farming is everything!

As a result, in later generations, even though some people have experienced the washing of new information in later generations, they still have not washed away the imprints of those shit. They think that ancient China only had farming. If we did not follow the farming route, what else could we do?

As for the earlier events in China, how the ancient Chinese nation expanded its trade when productivity was lower, technology was poorer, and transportation was more difficult is a mystery that cannot be seen or imagined.

Fortunately, in the current era of the Han Dynasty, the amount of this kind of shit is not too many...

After all, the heroic spirit of opening up new territories and expanding territory that survived from the early Han Dynasty has not been completely eliminated.

After the Shanshan Kingdom was ceded, could Fei Qian really take control of these ceded lands immediately?

It's obviously impossible.

However, from the day of the cession, the Han Dynasty no longer used the "garrison mode" for the Western Regions, but entered the "land management mode"!

What were the initial responsibilities of the Western Region Protectorate? It is "pacifying the vassals and pacifying the foreign invaders". To put it simply, it is "pacifying, conquering, narrating merits and punishing the faults" of the surrounding ethnic groups!

This is almost entirely focused on the military aspect, and is quite weak on the civilian and political aspects.

In other words, the political structure of the Protectorate has always been lame.

And now...

Taishi Ci smiled beside Fei Qian and said: "It seems that this old monk knows a little bit... As for this boy Grojia, as expected, he really used the land of the little king of Shanshan as a ransom... My lord, Do other countries do the same? Give up a city today and cut off a land tomorrow. In less than ten years, all the Western Regions will be Han territory! 』

Fei Qian laughed and nodded slightly, "It is said that letting the old Wang Tong Grojia decide which piece of land to cut is just to dissipate his will to die. When he is willing to cut the land, he will naturally not want to die. ...and the compensation for that piece of land is ultimately not decided by him, but by us...Oasis, mines...prioritize proximity, easy control, and high value..."

Taishi Ci nodded repeatedly.

Taishi Ci, Xu Chu and others were able to immediately understand Fei Qian's meaning without prior communication, and naturally they could not do without the good example of Qin Shihuang.

("(￣︶￣)" Qin Shihuang proudly crossed his arms)

Taishi Ci, Xu Chu and others quickly understood that Fei Qian wanted to implement a replica of the "Six Kingdoms" here in the Western Regions.

This is clearly a good strategy that has worked in the past.

Wasn't this how the Qin Dynasty gradually ascended to the throne of unification?

It turns out that General Hussar wanted to continue Qin’s strategy in the Western Regions! Why didn't I think of it before? !

He is worthy of being a hussar general!

Taishi Ci even thought about the follow-up process.

Of course, when the land is cut off, officials must be dispatched to manage it. Then the newly cut people in these lands will of course be dissatisfied with the management. Even if they are obedient, they must find some who are malicious and disobedient. Only in this way can they have reason to send troops at any time. , continue to cut the soil...

When to obey and when to disobey naturally depends on the specific needs.

The land acquired this time will naturally be counted among Fei Qian's military achievements.

next time……

The Western Region is so big and has so many countries.

Taishi Ci burst out laughing in his heart, but he was a little worried that Fei Qian would accuse him of being militaristic, so he rolled his eyes and cautiously asked for instructions, "I dare to ask my lord, this... if after the Western Region is cut off, the king will not accept it." Law, disrespecting the king's order...how should I deal with it? 』

Fei Qian glanced at Tai Shici and said with a smile: "Although this method originated from the Western Qin Dynasty, times have changed and it needs to be slightly improved... Since Ziyi thinks this method is feasible, he might as well talk about the advantages of it?" 』

Taishi Ci had obviously thought about it a lot, and he spoke unequivocally at the moment, "My lord is wise." This method is more wonderful than the heart. It is easy to destroy the countries in the Western Region, but it is difficult to govern them. If we talk about the art of war, it means surrounding three towers. It can be said that the art of war is used to govern the people. In the country of Shanshan, there are those who are pro-Han, and naturally there are also those who are evil. If they want to destroy the country and cut off their sacrifices, it will be convenient for a while, but if they lose the support of the people, they will eventually surrender and rebel again, just like what happened in the old days with the Southern Huns... 』

"Now my lord is using the redemption of his life as bait to lure the Lord of Shanshan to cut off the land and abandon the people." Taishi Ci looked up at Tong Geluojia above the palace and said with a sneer, "When you cut the land, you will lose the dignity of the king. Go against the will of the people! This thief thinks that the place he abandoned is just a mere place, but he doesn't know that he has lost the support of the people! Over time, there will be no authority to control hundreds of officials, and no people will support them. The country will be overthrown, and the country will lose its inheritance... At that time, people will all want to surrender to the Han, and it will be logical to organize households to unite the people... This is a strategy to slow down the emergency by making close contacts with distant enemies. ...』

Fei Qian laughed, nodded and praised, "As expected." Ziyi is the most suitable for this... However, there are some ingenuities in using this method. Wait..."

"General!" Before Fei Qian could speak, a sharp voice came from the side, interrupting Fei Qian's words...
