Three Kingdoms

  In Chang'an Hussar's government office.

  The discussion gradually went deep into some substantive issues.

   These problems were once undiscovered or ignored intentionally within three or four hundred years, but now they are put on the table and presented to everyone...

   Confront him, finish him off.

  Even if the optimal solution cannot be obtained temporarily, it can be a reference or an experience for the next step or the next generation to solve problems.

  Pang Tong first said: "In a certain opinion, the state and county should be used to control affairs." There are also so-called states in the Western Regions, which should not be granted canonization lightly, lest chapters and seals will be changed, and old things will be created, which is a pity. The book can only be granted to those who belong to it, and it should be like the law of the Southern Huns, the way of enlightenment, and the seal and ribbon of the Han Dynasty must not be used as a bargaining chip for friendship. 』

   China has never had a relatively complete and long-term foreign affairs reserve for foreign countries. From talents to institutions, it is like using whoever is caught...

   And diplomacy has little coherence.

  During the time of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, the Han Dynasty made an agreement with the Xiongnu that the south of the Great Wall belonged to the Han Dynasty, and the north of the Great Wall belonged to the Xiongnu. Neither side could accept surrender from the other side.

   This is a very formal foreign affairs covenant, and it was a formal covenant between the two relatively powerful regimes at that time, but this covenant did not play its role, and then the Huns threw this covenant aside. The big man sent someone to arrest him when he knew about it, and nothing happened if he didn't know about it.

For example, Wang Jugu, the queen of Cheshi, and Tangdou, the king of Quhulai, defected to the Huns because they hated the captain of the guard of the Han Dynasty. Shan Yu handed over Ju Gu and Tang Dou for Fa-rectification.

  Then there was the so-called "Four Articles of Establishment", that is, "Chinese people who died to the Huns, those who surrendered to the Huns from Wusun, those who surrendered to the Huns with Chinese seals and ribbons from the countries of the Western Regions, and those who surrendered to the Huns from Wuhuan are not acceptable." 』However, such regulations were not written down, nor were they recognized by the surrounding states, and with the demise of the Huns, they gradually became invalid.

  Xun You nodded and said: "Every mediocre's politics, where there are internal worries, there must be external troubles!" The key to governance is to seek the truth and correctness, not to seek the sword in a hurry. Now that the Western Regions have been protected for four hundred years, the current situation has changed, and new laws and regulations should be adopted to be comprehensive. 』

  Both Pang Tong and Xun You told the same thing, which was also a loophole in the Western Regions in the past. There is no separation of powers and responsibilities, and the country is unclear, and the problem of "creating four articles" has arisen from this.

  『The matter of construction is really a remedy after a dead sheep! 』

  『But how can you mend it again and again, especially if you don’t know it as a warning? ! 』

  The sonorous and powerful voice echoed in the hall...

  …(*Д*)…

  In the big camp outside Xihai City, suddenly the fireworks rose, and the people and horses were chaotic.

   This camp was originally used to protect Xihai City and guard against military affairs in the Western Regions, but suddenly it became chaotic.

This camp is quite strong. It was originally erected according to the standard of semi-permanent fortifications when Li Ru was still there. Apart from the core area of ​​the central tent, there are quite a few functional blocks around it. It looks like a small military city, and it is a horn with Xihai City.

  But on this day, there was a riot inside the camp.

  In the camp, someone suddenly started killing!

   The soldiers who were attacked shouted loudly, rushing out of tents or huts in disorder. Some corporal leaders at the bottom went in without knowing their leaders, and they were still barely controlling the situation, telling the soldiers to close the gates of the village, go up to the walls of the village, put on their armor, take out their weapons, and prepare to form a defensive formation! These corporal chiefs subconsciously looked towards the direction of the large tent of the Chinese army, but they found that in the first moment, no orderly rushed out to pass the order...

  These soldiers in the Xihai camp, although their military appearance has become not very strict, but after all, most of them are veterans who have been through battles for a long time. Now there is a sudden chaos, and there is no effective command for the time being. These soldiers don't know what happened. The defense sits and waits.

  In the large tent of the Chinese army, Zhang Liao held his saber and looked at the general Ma Pianjiang, "Interesting... It seems that you are not as useless as Supervisor Zhang said..."

  Although Zhang An was able to track and record most of the officials in Xihai City, after all, civil and military are different. His understanding of the military camps outside the city is not as deep as those of the civil officials in the city, and he only stays on the superficial impression. Of course, when Zhang An gave Zhang Liao information on this point, he also made relevant supplementary explanations.

  『Any other means? Zhang Liao stared at Ma Pianjiang and said, "Maybe you can use them all...Let me guess, there should be some ambushing people outside the big camp, waiting to see the chaos in the camp, is it to take advantage of the chaos?" 』

  Ma Pianjiang moved quietly outside, and shouted loudly, "General Zhang, it's useless even if you kill me!" Now in the Four Seas City, you can't have the final say if you bring a scepter! 』

   As soon as the voice fell, it was heard that there was a faint sound of horseshoes outside the barracks.

   Immediately there were more shouts rising in the distance, like a small wave surging, and then gradually getting bigger, until it was about to develop into a monstrous wave and wiped out Zhang Liao in the camp!

  Zhang Liao stood up slowly, "Finally something interesting... I was wondering before, how could you, a group of **** who only attribute their mistakes to others, obediently surrender and plead guilty?" 』

   Ma smiled grimly, "Do you think it would be useful to bring some guards?" I have someone too! Come on! Come on! kill him! kill him! 』

  …(〃dish`)=-…

   Fei Qian looked at Guo Tu and Feng Ji who were afraid to express their opinions easily, and called out, "The Senator is the principal. 』

  『The minister is here. 』Guo Tu hurriedly answered respectfully.

  『Western Regions state affairs, what law can we participate in now? ’ Fei Qian asked.

  Guo Tu's eyes widened, and he searched hard in his mind, but he couldn't find it.

   Indeed no...

  There has been no big man for three or four hundred years.

   Interesting, but what is more interesting is not only in the Han Dynasty, but in the subsequent feudal dynasties, they still only stared at the domestic people and formulated a set of laws every day. For foreign people...

  For example, Edinburgh, that is true love for Ding, but the one who loves is not Hua Ding, but Yang Ding.

  First of all, Fei Qian felt that the most important thing in setting up the Western Regions Protector was to control the military and diplomatic power of the Western Regions.

In terms of military power, although it cannot be said that big men don’t pay attention, there is no better way. They only know how to make peace, provoke, alienate, etc. if they are discovered, it will easily fail. Like later generations, what about a selection of civilizations in the Western Regions?

   If the promotion is good, it is impossible to say that the Western Regions themselves can grab children's desks!

   In addition, diplomatic power is also missing a large piece.

  『The decrees obtained by the rulers of the Western Regions are only for restraints,’ Fei Qian said again, 『It is not different from the laws of the Huns’ boy servants in the past... Are there any relevant laws in the Senate? 』

  Guo Tu swallowed a mouthful of saliva, "Minister, minister... Let's organize people and discuss this law..."

   Feiqian nodded and said: "Military affairs, diplomatic relations, government affairs, wealth and wealth, these four things are the key to enlightenment." First weaken its military, control its soldiers, attract heroes for its own use, weaken its people, and exhaust its army and restrain its soldiers. 』

  『Fanjiao. The country that has been registered should not be handed over to a foreign country without authorization, and it should be the same as the counties of the Han Dynasty. ’ Fei Qian called out to Guo Tu, ‘Gongze, this should be attributed to the law, and its scope should be determined. 』

  『Only. The minister wrote it down. ’ Guo Tu responded repeatedly.

Wealth and internal affairs are the internal affairs of a state. If you intervene at the beginning, it is likely to cause dissatisfaction. However, if military operations and diplomatic alliances are delegated to territories or vassal states, these guys can play various tricks in minutes. , the so-called canonization has become a joke.

  Pang Tong said: "It can be followed by Li Ershi's old rule that all canonized countries are not allowed to pay tribute to each other, and tribute envoys will be escorted by Han people..."

   Feiqian nodded, "Besides, the canonized state has a new embassy, ​​full-time communication, and coordination of foreign affairs. The number depends on the size of the state. In addition, Fanyuan is temporarily established under the Senate, pending follow-up. 』

  Guo Tu responded quickly again.

   Fei Qian turned his head to look at Feng Ji, "The Department of Examinations has just been established, and the affairs are complicated, but don't get bogged down in trivial matters, delaying the essentials of your duties. The guardians of the Western Regions are like counties and prefectures, formulate laws, and perform their duties, so that they can know what to look for, and avoid the disadvantages of being superfluous and not full-time. 』

   Feng Ji nodded again and again, expressing his memory.

  In the legal system of the Han Dynasty, all aspects of the Duhufu lack clear definitions, and have not been improved. In the prefectures and counties of the Han Dynasty, the duties and powers of officials at all levels were defined and clearly defined. For example, in local administration, the prefect was in charge of the military administration of a county, and had the right to review the active local troops in the capital examination. And the county captain is in charge of the county soldiers, responsible for daily military operations to wipe out local bandits and so on. As for the assassination department, it is in charge of monitoring impeachment and so on.

  However, among the Protector of the Western Regions and the Colonel Wuji, it is not clear how to legally exercise their powers in accordance with the provisions of the law, everything is very vague. Because of the rules and regulations in the Western Regions, Dahan has always been blank.

Because the legal system of the Han Dynasty lacks detailed regulations on the position and powers of the Protectorate, and it has not been declared in foreign relations, so when the people of the Protectorate or the envoys of the Great Han go to other countries to conduct diplomatic relations, Often can only rely on the messenger's personal ability to speak.

   Of course a powerful envoy is good, but who can guarantee that all envoys in three or four hundred years will be as powerful as Ban Dingyuan?

  The law is the minimum guarantee.

At that time, Hu Hanxie sought peace with the Han Dynasty in a half-professional attitude. The two sides stipulated the so-called "from the south of the Great Wall, the Son of Heaven has it, and from the north of the Great Wall, the Son of Heaven has it". The Hexi Corridor, the Hetao area, and the southern foot of the Yin Mountains were seized from the Central Plains, and the Han Dynasty also returned the Outer Great Wall area to the Xiongnu as appropriate, and withdrew their soldiers, and the boundaries between the two sides were legally demarcated.

  This is generally considered a good thing, but the big man didn't let this good thing work.

The big man didn't realize that his rule in the Western Regions would extend to such a far-reaching situation. After all, it was just an idle move at the beginning, which led to the Western Regions being under the independent rule of the Protectorate for a long time. The lack of widespread recognition has also made the central court have always been uneasy about the Western Regions and suspicious of its rulers in the Western Regions.

   There is no good means of controlling the outside world, and freedom is allowed.

  Give heavy power to the Great Protector of the Western Regions, but also fear that his supporters will be too heavy to lose.

  Three or four hundred years, even a stone can be warmed up. As a result, the entire Western Regions have not been able to be effectively developed until now. All the problems are still repeated, and they are constantly lost between selfish desires and fears.

  『Old things in the Western Regions, you should choose the good ones and follow them, and change the bad ones. 』

  『There is no way in the world, only those who walk can find their way! 』

  『Now the way of the Western Regions is convenient for you and me...』

  …(*`ェ*)…

  『Kill! 』

  The sounds of clashing weapons and shouts of soldiers resounded chaotically outside the tents of the Chinese army.

  Human figures swayed outside the big tent, weapons collided from time to time, screamed and fell to the ground, and the sound of blood splattered.

  But no one rushed in...

   Situation, something seems wrong.

  Ma Pianjiang's hands were trembling, and his face turned pale.

  Aren’t Zhang Liao’s guards the ones at the door? Why didn’t the manpower I arranged couldn’t kill those guards before rushing in?

  Listening to the noise outside the big tent of the Chinese army, Zhang Liao looked at Ma Pianjiang and the other three people in front of him with leisure.

"what are you waiting for? ’ Zhang Liao said with a smile.

  『…』Ma turned his eyes wildly.

  『What else do you have? You might as well use it," Zhang Liao approached the horse unhurriedly, "If not..."

  The corner of Ma Pian's mouth trembled a little, he pointed at Zhang Liao, and shouted to the other three, "Aren't you going to do it? ! Do it! 』

  Ma Pianjiang's original plan seems to have gone a little bit wrong now!

  After the initial deception failed, there was only one way to do it, but the swordsmen and crossbowmen who were supposed to appear at the first moment when the horse sent out the signal disappeared at this moment...

  Although Zhang Liao has guards, what can he do?

  Even though Zhang Liao is brave, what can he do?

  Axemen and crossbowmen together can not only kill Zhang Liao's guards, but also kill Zhang Liao's life!

  This is the reason why Ma Pianjiang felt that he had a chance to win, so he dared to blatantly turn against Zhang Liao. As long as he can block Zhang Liao's first few knives, Zhang Liao will be directly beheaded on the spot by the swordsmen, axes and crossbowmen who rushed in!

But…

  Why didn't you come?

  How could it not come? !

Ma Pianjiang watched Zhang Liao slowly draw out his saber, and the bright blade flashed a cold light. When he was about to make a final fight with Zhang Liao, suddenly a cold light flashed from the corner of his eyes, and then he felt a coldness in his ribs. Cool!

   Immediately, Ma Pianjiang felt all the strength in his body vented out with a sneer, his legs and feet were weak, and then Ma Pianjiang felt the sharp pain coming from his side rib, which made him howl in pain!

  The horse turned his head away, but saw Jin Xi, who had been lowering his head, twisting the dagger in his hand viciously!

"ah! Ahhh! 』Ma Pianjiang exhausted his last strength and wanted to push Jinxi away, but he couldn't!

  Jin Xi himself was born as a veteran in the battlefield, and he knew the vitals of the human body like the palm of his hand, and he rushed to kill him on the spot with a single blow. How could it be possible for the horse to have the strength to fight back?

   Jin Xi gritted his teeth, and exerted force on his hand, "Damn thief, go to hell!" 』

  Zhang Liao slowly put back the half-drawn saber, tapped the handle a few times with his fingers, looked at Ma Pianjiang with a frown, and then at Jinxi.

  『Plop…』Jin Xi pushed the horse general to the ground, and immediately knelt down on the ground again, and kowtowed,『General Zhang! I was forced by this dog thief! Everything is done by this bitch! I am loyal to the hussars and have no second thoughts! 』

The other two military academies also bowed down together, echoing their voices, saying that they were all coerced by General Ma, and then they had to cooperate with General Ma, and now they are willing to set things right, and are willing to identify those General Ma Confidants, and those who have contact with Ma Pianjiang inside and outside Xihai City...

   Outside the big tent of the Chinese army, there were suddenly the sound of chaotic footsteps, and there seemed to be many people.

  Jin Xi was stunned for a moment, his expression became stiffer, and his words of begging for mercy were also paused.

The light and shadow outside the big tent flickered for a moment, Meng Hua lifted the door curtain, his body was filled with a strong smell of blood, he walked in, he didn't look at the three of Jin Xi, and he didn't look at the corpse of General Ma Pianjiang on the ground. The few heads he carried dropped directly to the ground, and he bowed his hands to Zhang Liao, saying, "Fortunately, it's not a disgrace!" 』

  The human head rolled and bounced on the ground...

   "So it's you..." Jin Xi trembled suddenly, and then suddenly saw Meng Hua, and suddenly turned to Zhang Liao, with seven emotions on his face, "General! Back then, I also spent some time with the general! The general has watched me for many years...』

"enough! 』Zhang Liao waved his hand.

"ah? There was still noise outside the big tent. Jinxi didn't hear what Zhang Liao said, but saw Zhang Liao waving his hand, thinking that Zhang Liao had pardoned him, he couldn't help but feel a little happy, "Thank you, thank you general..."

  Zhang Liao was also taken aback for a moment, and then he realized that he couldn't help laughing.

  The three of Jin Xi were very embarrassed. They didn't know whether they should keep laughing or continue to pretend to be pitiful.

  『Let me tell you...』 Zhang Liao held the handle of the knife, 『The impression I left on you back then...is it so easy to deceive? 』

  Jin Xi's expression changed, but before he could make any movements, he saw a bright knife light head on!

  …(〃＞盘＜)∫→…

  In the lobby of the General's Mansion.

  『Gongda. Fei Qian instructed, "Taking the benefits of the Western Regions as the topic, let the children of the academy discuss it for a period of 15 days. Those who are outstanding in the selection will be rewarded. During the imperial examination, they can choose the best." 』

   Xun You should go down.

  『Now that you know the disadvantages, you should change them. Fei Qian said slowly, "Today's discussion, scholars can record it, and report it to the county in the county. If there is a good plan, it can be stated on the table." 』

  Pang Tong also nodded.

  『Public rules, the discussion of relevant laws is the top priority of the Senate. ’ Fei Qian looked at Guo Tu and said.

  Guo Tu's beard trembled, "I take orders!" 』

"Yuan Tu," Fei Qian said to Feng Ji again, "The Kaogong Division has the responsibility to judge the good and bad of officials. This time, something happened in the Western Regions, and many officials committed crimes. This is a battle for the Kaogong Division to rectify their names. If there are people in Yuantu, just report them." . Need to remember, do not favoritism, do not bend the law, do not omit, do not add indiscriminately. If it can be practiced in the Western Regions, it can be practiced in the world. This can be described as a great achievement. 』

  Feng Ji bowed generously, "I will definitely live up to my lord's trust!" 』

   Fei Qian nodded, "This matter in the Western Regions has a lot to do with it, so don't be careless. If it is established in the law now, it can be said that the merits will last for thousands of years. You should try your best! 』

  The four of them glanced at each other, then stood up together, bowed their hands together, and said, "Your servant takes orders!" 』
