Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 2906 The madman goes east, and the chaser also goes east

  The Western Regions is the first step in China's first attempt to go out since the beginning of the Han Dynasty.

   After all, no matter what, the Silk Road is more in line with Dahan's current level of productivity development.

  Navigation requires a certain degree of skill in order to smoothly reach the East China Sea and southern Xinjiang.

  Although the snow area is also accessible by land, it is still too difficult to travel compared to the Western Regions. Even in later generations, not everyone can go back and forth casually, and there may be complications of altitude sickness on the way...

  So, this step in the Western Regions is actually very critical.

  The basic point of the Han Dynasty's management of the Western Regions was not to go out, but to fight against the Xiongnu. Therefore, after this direction was wrong, the importance of the Western Regions weakened rapidly after the Huns weakened. Later, Han Yu said that China's "large land and abundant resources"...

   Well, Mr. Lu also said the same thing about "a vast land and abundant resources".

Obviously, Han Yu and Lu Xun are not bad people. It is not a problem to say that China has a vast land and resources. The problem is that some people make use of the topic, some take it out of context, and some people don’t see others as good. It’s like a capitalist who sees an ordinary person earning one dollar more and losing a thousand dollars than him. All feel bad.

  China is actually very barren.

  Throughout history, China really has no advantage compared to other countries with large land area.

  The country in the United States has a lot of coal and gas, as well as a lot of oil, shale. The flat land is also suitable for agriculture.

  Australian kangaroo, more iron, more gas and more coal. The climate is extremely suitable for livestock and marine farming.

  Big Bear’s house is also full of wood, oil, gas, and coal.

   Then look at China. There is a lack of oil, gas, and coal, especially high-quality coal. It also lacks iron, which also lacks high-quality iron ore. Copper, silver, and gold are all lacking. The arable land area is small, and the hilly area is doomed to be unable to cultivate large areas by machinery. Moreover, there are twenty neighbors, most of whom are not the masters of peace. From ancient times to later generations, there are many old and new grudges!

  In this environment, can you still be immersed in the dream of being arrogant?

   Therefore, for Fei Qian, the Western Regions must go out!

   In order for future generations of China to have a broader space, this step must be taken.

  If Zhang Liao hadn't killed people in the Western Regions, he might still be a better candidate for the Protector of the Western Regions.

  Zhang Liao is cautious, courageous and resourceful.

   It's just a pity that Zhang Liao did it. Although for Zhang Liao, it was indeed necessary to do something at that time, but this is not a normal way.

  So now Tai Shici has become the main candidate.

   Yes, candidates, but not the only ones…

If it doesn't work, Fei Qian can still transfer Jia Xu, but that guy often likes to play tricks on people's hearts. There will be more or less side effects.

   After all, some people can't see it for a while, and they may not be able to see it forever. When the means become the purpose, they will be backlashed after all.

   Very period way, not suitable for all patterns.

   What Feiqian needs is "universal", not "acting according to authority" in an emergency.

The stability of a political structure must require the coordination of both civil and military aspects, just like human hands, and cutting a piece here and there with a knife at every turn, although it can indeed cut the lesion and remove carrion, but Why not treat it early? It can be treated with precision, so why do you have to chop off your arms and saw your thighs?

   This problem has even spread to later generations.

  The step Fei Qian wants to take now is a new step forward for Huaxia.

  It is not easy to go, but it is necessary to go.

Tai Shici also understands that he must be in step with Fei Qian, but how can he be more clear about Fei Qian's intentions and implement them well? This is not a simple sentence "I can do it", he must To show a certain ability to Feiqian...

Tai Shici felt that Fei Qian definitely didn't want to follow the route where people save government and others lose power, so Fei Qian was very cautious in handling Lu Bu, so Tai Shici also needed to deal with the issue of the Western Regions. Be careful, you can't just go up and light the fire.

  But I can’t say nothing and do nothing...

  It is the so-called "three fires for new officials to take office".

  Everyone seems to know that it is not good to do so. They all know that for the sake of safety, they should not try their best to show their work ability as soon as they take office.

  The truth is clear.

  But many times, when I take office, I can't help but burn it.

   If you don’t move for a long time, the people above will ask, Xiao Mou, what have you been doing for so long?

  The people below will also ask, what kind of bad water is this old wretch holding back, thinking about what to do?

   After the fire, everyone was at ease except the one who was burned.

   What is very interesting is, what does the post-secular saying "three fires for new officials" mean? The prototype actually refers to the three fires after Zhuge Liang came out of the mountain, that is, the fire of Bowangpo, the fire of Xinye and the fire of Chibi.

   But the problem is that these three fires were fabricated by Mr. Luo...

   is the fire in the romance.

  In the real history, none of these three fires had much to do with Brother Pig.

  The fire on Bowangpo was set by Liu Bei, and it didn't burn the chasing soldiers, but burned his own camp. At that time, the two armies faced each other in Bowang for a long time, Liu Bei took the initiative to change his tactics and led the army to "burn the puppet and escape by himself". Xiahoudun ordered to pursue, Li Dian, the lieutenant general, thought it was impossible, saying that the opponent might be hiding in the grass, but Xiahoudun refused to listen.

"Dun and others chased him, but were broken by ambush soldiers. Dun and others entered the bandit's ambush, and the battle was not good. Dian went to rescue him, and when he saw rescue, he scattered and retreated." Push it to the yard city!

  The Battle of Bowangpo is a classic case of Liu Bei personally commanding, and it seems that as long as Cao Cao does not personally lead the troops, Liu Bei can basically beat any general under Cao Cao...

   Xiahou Dun was burned, Cao Cao came, Liu Bei had no choice but to withdraw.

  So Xin Ye became popular, but in fact there was no such thing.

  As for the Chibi Fire...

   That's all.

  So the so-called "Three Fires", one "Crown and Li Dai", one "Nothing", and one "Li Daitao Stiffness"...

  『Soga…』Understanding Wang nodded again and again, expressing his understanding.

  The "three fires for new officials" in later generations actually refer to "people, wealth, and things".

  Because a unit's personnel and property directly control the lifeline of a unit. Therefore, when a new leader takes office, the first thing to do is to change the director of the office, because the director of the office is the immediate confidant of the leader. The director plays a comprehensive and coordinating role, and needs to arrange a new person, someone who the leader can trust.

  The second is the financial department. Whether it is a unit or a family, it is whoever manages the money who has the confidence. The finances of a unit must be managed by trustworthy people, otherwise, any small means will be enough for the leader to drink a pot. There is also personnel affairs. Whether the unit can perform depends mainly on whether the people are united. First, start with the personnel department, and then there will be a major change of middle-level leaders.

   At this point, after all personnel, property and property have been exchanged, the new leader can completely grasp the real power of the unit.

   But is this really necessary?

Many people think that after the previous leader, the employees in the unit are basically the dog legs of the previous leader, so when the new leader takes office, the work is not easy to carry out, so the "three fires for new officials" are In desperation, what must be done. As for other content, such as the new officials came up to change some systems, improve the office environment, and pull a few posters and red banners, they are actually laying the foundation for these three fires.

   But the problem is, maybe it is necessary to do this sometimes, but most of the time, it is to expand this one thing.

  Fei Qian didn't want the Western Regions to be the first case of "expansion" under his command.

  For Tai Shici, he must make a difference, but he cannot act at will, especially as a successor, he needs to know the road and direction, so as not to go astray.

  Fei Qian asked Tai Shici about Lu Bu and the Western Regions. On the surface, he seemed to be talking about Lu Bu, but in fact he was asking about the governance of the entire Western Regions!

  『I'm... stupid,』 Tai Shici felt that it would be better to let Fei Qian make the decision, so he said, 『I don't have any idea at the moment, but my lord has orders, and I will definitely obey them. 』

   Does it sound good?

  Is it correct?

  This is where Tai Shici is smarter than Lu Bu.

  But similarly, this is also where Tai Shici is not smart enough...

  So Fei Qian is going to let Tai Shici have a little more memory.

   Feiqian smiled, and stretched out two fingers, "Since that's the case, what do you think, Lu Fengxian's affairs in the Western Regions should be right and wrong, and should be right and wrong. 』

  Tai Shici was obviously stunned, and he bowed after a while, "Please give advice, my lord!" 』

   Fei Qian nodded slightly, and said: "Tian Boding loves scholars and saves his king, Baigong loves scholars and disturbs Jing." Its lovers are the same, but its reasons are different. Gongsunyou respected Baili from himself, and flattered Duke Huan from the palace. Its self-punishment is the same, and its reason for self-punishment is different. Huizi said, "The madman goes east, and the chaser also goes east. If they go east, they will be the same, but if they go east, their actions will be different. Therefore, those who are called colleagues must examine them." Can Ziyi know why? 』

Tai Shici understood somewhat, but also did not understand. He thought for a long time, and then tentatively said, "Han Feizi's words are likely to abandon things and value others. The madman goes east, and the chaser also goes east. Who knows this?" Dong He Dong also? If you look at it from things, it’s the same, if you look at it from people, it’s different. This is how to explain it, and please teach me, my lord. 』

What Han Feizi said actually means that we should pay more attention to people rather than things, because as Han Feizi said, it is possible for a lunatic to run eastward, and then a group of people also run eastward, doing the same thing. But people are different. But in this way, wouldn't it be contradictory to what Fei Qian said before, "Treat things not people"?

   Fei Qian smiled, "It's all about human effort. As someone said yesterday, people should compete with the sky, the land, and the people. Those who compete must do something and not do something. Difficulty and fear, and second, you should have the meaning of knowing the subtleties, observing things and observing people. 』

   Tai Shici nodded and said, "Yes! If you don't know people at the beginning, you should do it! Therefore, there is a saying, be right about things but not people. I have known people for a long time, so I should teach them! That's why we can say, it's wrong to treat people..."

   Feiqian nodded, "Ziyi got one of them." 』

  Tai Shici was taken aback for a moment, "My lord's intention is...is there anything left to say?" 』

   Fei Qian nodded.

   Tai Shici frowned, thinking.

  In fact, in traditional Chinese philosophy, you often hear two concepts that seem to be diametrically opposed. "Treat things and not people" and "Treat people and not things" are one of them.

  Those who support "doing things wrong to people" think that only objective factors can reflect fairness without prejudice; those who support "doing things wrong to people" think that the essence and ability of people are the key factors that determine things.

  When some people are young, they think that it is the supreme truth to "be right about things and not people". Of course, there are also people who are the other way around. When they were young, they liked to look at the faces of handsome men and beautiful women. No matter what handsome men and beautiful women do, they are right. Farting is good. When they are older, they will know that handsome men and beautiful women also want to shit. Yes, **** stinks.

  So, in fact, whether it is right for things or not for people, or for people or things, it is all focused thinking and simple mode.

  The world is so big, things are so chaotic, and people’s hearts are so complicated. I just wonder if there is a simple way, a universal template, and then bang up, and I’ll be done with one set.

   But obviously, this will not work, and this is also an important point that Fei Qian wants to tell Taishi Ci to govern the Western Regions.

   The more you want to simplify and model, you will find that the Western Regions are not simple and the model cannot be applied.

  The Han Dynasty has adopted the county system for three or four hundred years...

  The county system is a simple local management model.

  Applied to the Western Regions, can it really be effective?

   Of course, it is understandable that if you really use this set of models, it will obviously save you worry and effort.

  It's like Tai Shici's "ask if you don't understand", and then let Fei Qian "arbitrary".

  When things become absolute, problems will arise.

  Absolutely treating things rather than people can actually be regarded as an extremely realistic attitude, because it advocates objectivity and fairness on the surface, but actually corresponds to short-term opportunism. Regardless of whether it is a good person or a bad person, just care about whether you recognize or not what you do, which is equivalent to caring about whether your interests in this matter are compatible. If you agree, if you are compatible, you will form a fellow traveler and go forward together for a while.

  This makes it seem that everyone does the same things, but because the people who do things and the logic that drives them are different, the consequences will be different in the future. If we can walk together for a while, we can walk for a while. How far we can go depends on whether we still agree with the same views and compatible with the same interests when the next thing comes. No matter how good the previous road was, you may still stab each other at the next intersection. It's all about business, and there is no personal grievance. Everyone joins or breaks up at any time, and no one should think too much about it.

   By contrast, being wrong to someone is less a strategy than a desire.

  A desire that is not easy to realize.

  If it becomes absolute, there will definitely be a big problem.

  The desire to make things happen because of people is based on various viewpoints and various interests. People still have a natural character, and then believe that human true character is more reliable than these complicated views and interests. This kind of desire points to people, indicating that opinions may be confused for a while, and interests may be diverged temporarily, but the bottom is still the same person, and this person is trustworthy, so the last thing is also trustworthy.

   But is it possible?

   It is difficult to deal with things and not people.

  If you don’t understand things, don’t know, don’t know, if you don’t have a problem, you can enjoy peace and happiness, and good things will eventually be turned into bad governance.

   It is difficult to judge people if they are not right.

  Who can guarantee that this person is accurate?

  Even if you see a person for a while, as time goes by and things change, people will change accordingly. At that time, can the person after the change still be the person before?

  The ability to identify a person is mostly reflected in the resume. Those who are not in the resume can also be tested by work, but there is no generally reliable method to detect how a person is.

Right now, Tai Shici, the more he thought about it, the more he had a headache. Before he talked with Fei Qian, he felt that his brain was still sufficient, but he didn't expect that the more he talked, the more confused he became. Now he feels like his brain is full of mess. Groups of people are crowded together, if it is said that there is no insight, that is not right, but it is said that there is insight, but there is no clue.

  『Where are there six villages, why are there six chases? How about literati, how about warriors? ’ Fei Qian said with a smile, ‘Ziyi, don’t be rigid. If you look at things from people, you will make mistakes based on your emotional likes and dislikes; Is it Zhan Ye? Hu people and Han people, what's the difference? 』

  『This…』Suddenly, Tai Shici seemed to have a flash of inspiration in his mind, 『My lord! Six villages and six chases are originally one! Six villages can become six chases, and vice versa! The one who decides the township is not the township, and the one who decides to chase the boundary is not to chase it! If you do things with things, you will lose them to others! If you do things with people, you will miss things! 』

  『Warrior and literati are also one! Tai Shici obviously grasped the key points of the Western Regions, and his expression was quite excited. Under the lord, if you are honored, you will be honored together, and if you are humiliated, you will be humiliated together! If you benefit, you will benefit, and if you lose, you will lose! Seeking common ground while reserving differences can be one! 』

  『My lord! ’ Tai Shici half-kneeled on the ground, cupped his hands and worshiped the Taoist priest with a solemn and solemn expression, ‘Your servant must always remember what happened to Lu Fengxian! Take this as a lesson! Focus on the big picture! The minister should take Chang'an in the West Sea as one, and act cautiously! One is to take the people of the West Sea as the people of the country, to set the law of the towns and cities, and to solidify the big and small states! The second is to pay attention to the four peoples without forgetting to fight, use the ability of civil officials to supervise their power, and use the power of generals to monitor their handles! Thirdly, if the subject has any corruption, laziness, and selfish desires, he should bind himself under the seat of the lord, and die without complaint! 』

  『Good! Ziyi got it! ’ Fei Qian helped Tai Shici up, and shook his arm vigorously, ‘We will entrust the whole Western Region to Ziyi! 』

  The two looked at each other and smiled, the smile was like the sky with the jade gate closed, clear and pure.
