Chapter 1011: Wei Qing Has Not Yet Revived
"I say, Marquis Huaiyin! Have you thought it through?"
Chen Xi looked helplessly at Han Xin who was looking serious in front of him. He came to Han Xin today to collect debts. After a group of people in the Government Affairs Office discussed it, they felt that the Han Dynasty was currently lacking two types of troops.
One is an auxiliary scout type that controls light and shadow to amplify the army's command like the Roman Fifth Skylark, one is a jack of all trades type that has infinite talents for the Fourteenth Combined Legion, and the last one is an amplified legion type like the Scepter of the Kushan Empire and the Parliament of the Roman Empire.
To put it more abstractly, the only legion in the entire Han Dynasty that could enhance the power of others was the Xiliang Cavalry. What an abstract thing this is.
Although most of the time, the Han Dynasty could make up for it through military formations, but the problem is who doesn't want good things? Chen Xi wanted it anyway, so he thought it would be okay to collect illustrations.
Chen Xi came to the Weiyang Palace and began to collect debts from Han Xin.
Han Xin knew that he couldn't shirk the blame for messing up the palace, so he could only accept his fate because it was his fault.
Bai Qi watched Han Xin make a difficult decision with a smile.
The three types Chen Xi mentioned are more bizarre than each other. Even the God of War is not omnipotent. Light and shadow manipulation is a pitfall, infinite transformation is a big pitfall, and the amplification legion is a cesspool. None of them is easy to deal with.
However, what does this have to do with him, a man who loves fun? He just wants to watch Han Xin choose a pit and then jump into it.
Han Xin’s own military training was “rubbish”, and his actual level was at most the same as Huangfu Song’s. Of course, this does not apply to the battlefield.
On the battlefield, Han Xin trained his troops so fast that Huangfu Song couldn't see the exhaust gas.
But the problem is that Han Xin cannot go to the battlefield, so this vicious circle means that Han Xin is doomed to be unable to climb out of any pit, and then he is clamped by Chen Xi and others.
God knows how many legions of imperial guards these black-hearted guys will ask Han Xin to train to pay off his debts.
Although training the Royal Guards is not very difficult for the God of War, it is mostly troublesome. They are finally resurrected and just want to have some fun, but they are forced to train the legion every day. What kind of hell is this?
"Let's go with Infinite Transformation!" Han Xin finally chose Infinite Transformation. In fact, Han Xin had thought about it. Infinite Transformation was just a quantifier anyway, so he would just use the entire legion that could switch talents to take over.
Although he admitted it, he is not an honest man. If he really puts himself in the trap, he will only be asking for trouble.
Light and shadow and the auxiliary legion are so difficult to deal with. To be honest, Han Xin feels that it will take him several years to complete them, basically starting from scratch.
At least he was quite familiar with the Infinite Transformation, because he used whatever talent he had to wash in the war. It was a level higher than the Infinite Transformation, after all, he washed the entire army together.
Chen Xi left with satisfaction. No matter whether Han Xin could succeed or not, it would be a win-win for the Han Dynasty.
How to motivate the big guys to work at the same cost is a metaphysical problem. The big guys need to take action, while the newcomers need to grow. The right balance is very difficult to grasp.
Han Xin looked at Bai Qi eagerly, intending to ask Bai Qi for help and let Bai Qi work with him, as working together would always make the work faster.
"Don't look at me, I can't!"
However, what Bai Qi was best at was refusing others, just like when he refused the Qin king's forced request for him to go to war.
Han Xin twitched the corners of his mouth. Facing a guy who used his life to reject others, he was helpless.
"What about that kid Huo Qubing? He was also the one who caused this. He must help me!" Han Xin's eyes turned and he immediately thought of another culprit.
Although Huo Qubing was not good at training soldiers, he was still a military god no matter how unskilled he was. Maybe some inspiration could be generated through communication and exchange.
"I'm here, but I guess I can't help you!" a voice said weakly. Only then did Han Xin and Bai Qi realize that Huo Qubing was actually lying in the underground palace.
"What are you doing?" Han Xin and Bai Qi sank into the ground, looking at Huo Qubing with strange expressions.
"It's backfired. The cost of rescuing people from the long river of time is too high!" Huo Qubing's face was pale, and he felt like he had returned to his childhood when he was weak and sickly.
Bai Qi and Han Xin were silent. Huo Qubing's condition reminded them of some bad things.
"The price is so high, and you don't even know whether you succeeded or not?" Bai Qi asked with a frown. Logically speaking, only if you succeed in rescuing people will you suffer this kind of backlash.
"Is time really irreversible?" Han Xin also frowned.
In fact, at the end of the research, what everyone involves is similar. One is to trace the past, and the other is to preview the future.
It is easy to go backwards, but it is too difficult to go forward. In the past, Zhang Liang and Xiao He also tried to revive legendary mythological figures to deal with Xiang Yu.
However, it was of no use. Those mythical figures were all blown up by Xiang Yu with one punch.
From then on, Zhang Liang and Xiao He completely gave up on fighting Xiang Yu with force and instead turned to attacking Xiang Yu's heart.
Han Xin also secretly studied the idea himself, and thought about going back to the past and killing Xiang Yu with one blow to eliminate future troubles.
But he still has no clues, which is why he and Bai Qi helped Huo Qubing in the first place. In addition to wanting to meet Wei Qing, they also wanted to see whether going back to the past could become a reality.
Han Xin wanted to go back to the past, but Bai Qi was different. He just wanted to go back and see what level those so-called famous generals of the Warring States Period were at.
Why did he feel like he had never encountered any of them back then? The only one, Lian Po, had been transferred away by the time he took action, and he did not face off against any of them.
When he saw so many famous generals in history books, he wanted to fight with them to see whether it was because there were no heroes back then that allowed him to win every battle, or whether these generals were just at that level.
As for the evaluation in history books, Bai Qi did not believe a word of it. Who was Han Xin in history books? He was a king, a general, and a man who pacified the world and fought against rebellions. People who didn't know him would think he was a heroic figure, but in reality he was just a gangster.
How can you believe what is recorded by a group of people who don’t understand military gods? It’s better to see it with your own eyes.
"Success!" When he said this, a hint of redness appeared on Huo Qubing's pale face.
"Greetings to Marquis Huaiyin and Lord Wu'an. Qing is ill now. I will debate with you two after I recover!"
A mature and steady voice was heard from the corner.
"What a blessing!" Bai Qi and Han Xin's eyes gleamed. They didn't expect that Huo Qubing actually succeeded.
Moreover, Wei Qing's invitation to fight was exactly what they desired.
It is lonely to stand on the top of the mountain. The lonelier you are, the more you desire to meet others like you.
Guo Hao looked in the direction of Weiyang Palace with some surprise, and his consciousness revived. Although it was very weak, it was indeed revived.
"It actually worked?" Guo Hao scratched his head and then allocated more luck to Weiyang Palace. It would be able to nourish the new consciousnesses and allow them to recover.
"It really is destiny!" Guo Hao thought about it and finally decided not to publicize the matter. General Wei was obviously in bad condition, so he decided to wait until he recovered.
Moreover, the matter of rescuing people from this long river of time and space still needs careful consideration, at least we have to wait until the result of Huo Qubing comes out.
If you gain one and lose another one, it would be a waste of time.
…
A few days later, the previous issues concerning Sun Ce, Zhou Yu, and Xun Shuang were brought up again at the court meeting.
After all, since Sun Ce and Zhou Yu have been crowned kings, they should quickly take office and achieve some results to reassure the aristocratic families and the Han Dynasty .
Therefore, after a series of urgent quarrels among the noble families in private and some PY, they have restarted the previous proposal.
In fact, it is just a process. The aristocratic families discuss it among themselves , and then the court approves it. After all, this is not a one-size-fits-all policy. As long as the vast majority of the aristocratic families leave, there are plenty of ways to deal with and utilize the remaining ones. It is even a good idea to use them as benchmarks to motivate those who come later.
Before going to court, Guo Hao and Chen Xi prepared the information for Liu Ying in order to avoid any accidents. This proposal must be passed, and there is basically nothing to say. After all, everyone with a discerning eye knows that this matter will benefit the country and the people.
This time the noble families have almost finished their discussions in private, and even if there are some dissatisfactions, they have been resolved by exchanging benefits.
Therefore, this proposal already has a framework in the parliament, and the matters to be ruled on have also been planned. It can barely be considered a rudimentary team and regulations. Now it just needs to be reported to the eldest princess for a ruling.
After all, no one in the aristocratic family can trust other aristocratic families. The aristocratic families are about to become a mudslide, who dares to trust them? The three families of Chen, Xun and Sima have never been good people, and the aristocratic families can't trust them at all. What could have been done in private with a group of aristocratic families to set up a team was directly brought to the court because of the trust issue.
It's funny to say that the biggest enemy of the aristocratic family is the aristocratic family, and the biggest friend of the aristocratic family is also the aristocratic family. They are just grasshoppers on the same rope, stabbing each other in the back.
What happened in the Six Dynasties? It is not just talk that they just pursued their own private interests.
It is obvious that both sides would rather reduce the power in their hands and prevent the idiots on the other side from taking any advantage. As a result, the current situation is that the stage has been set up, the rules and regulations have been drawn up, and then the country is brought in to suppress the other side.
After all, both parties are of the same opinion: whether I cheat or not is my business, but I absolutely do not allow you to cheat. This is the premise of fairness, but now it turns out like this...
Well, how should I put it, this kind of thing could not be accomplished in the past.
Because the largest aristocratic family happens to be the Liu family, which means the imperial court.
If you let the Liu family be the referee, you will be putting them all in a trap. The Liu family is well-known for their cruelty and ruthlessness. Only Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu was better. The other emperors all centralized power without reservation.
Although whether or not it can be done is a question of ability, at least I have always maintained this idea in the general direction.
The four aristocratic families of Chen, Xun, Sima and Yang took the lead in developing a parliamentary system, which was roughly modeled after the court meetings and its rules were reasonable.
"The aristocratic family parliament system is okay. It seems to be based on the court meeting, and the rules are reasonable." Liu Ying said with a lazy look, as if she was ready to agree, but suddenly changed the subject.
"But I think it would be better if we set up a team to handle the affairs of the noble families, called the Left House. This is the parliament you are proposing now. Set up another team to handle the affairs of the common people, called the Right House. Except for a few adjudicators from both sides who can serve concurrently, everyone else must perform their duties."
The corners of Liu Ying's mouth curled up. Although the general direction could not be changed, she still decided to fight for more benefits for the court.
Just like when there are more rich people, money is no longer money. If aristocratic families can only manage aristocratic families, their power will be greatly reduced. Moreover, the parliament and the court will be divided, and all conflicts between the two sides will become internal conflicts, and all struggles will become internal struggles.
This would also be able to divide these future princes to the greatest extent, and the future direction of the parliament is destined to be a meeting of princes. The tragedy of the Zhou Dynasty is still vivid in people's minds, even if Liu Ying understands that no one in his dynasty can shake the Han Dynasty.
But she was also considering future generations in her heart. If nothing unexpected happened, her and Guo Hao's son should inherit the throne.
When they all let go, these will become legacy issues. It’s okay when they are strong, but it can easily become a disadvantage when they are weak.
Chen Xi looked at Liu Ying with interest, then turned to look at Guo Hao. He was sure that this was Liu Ying's idea, but it was also related to Guo Hao. This model of the House of Commons and the House of Lords was very familiar.
The so-called left and right houses are just a variation.
Moreover, the so-called enfeoffment in the future will become the so-called autonomous region model. How to say these things? They are all within his plan, but the speed of advancement is faster than he imagined.
Guo Hao smiled at Chen Xi. He had no way of commenting on matters such as the public empire and the family empire, but he was very clear about how to keep a country alive for a long time.
Chen Xi stood up and took a step forward. "May I ask Your Highness, how should the conflict between the noble families and the common people be resolved?"
"Of course, this depends on where the people are from." Liu Tong continued.
What this sentence means is that the vassal of my vassal is not my vassal.
The people from the aristocratic families immediately started talking. This was the first time they felt Liu Ying's edge, and once again they were caught off guard.
If you say it's a loss, it doesn't seem so. So many people have gone there, and their children have grandchildren, their grandchildren have children, and their descendants are endless. In other words, if this parliament passes it, the Han Empire will recognize these vassal states of the Xia Dynasty.
It also set the tone for future vassal kingdoms, that is, they can govern their own citizens, and this matter is approved by the imperial court .
The subjects of the vassal states were Han people, but they were also subjects of the vassal states.
But just as everyone was talking, an unexpected person came out.
"May I ask Your Highness how to deal with conflicts between the vassal states and the Han Dynasty?"
Yuan Shu and Yuan Gonglu directly pointed out the contradiction between the aristocratic families and the state, which put the issue of the Spring and Autumn Period's hegemony on the table.
Great unification is the general trend, so who will unify is a good question. If the hegemons of the Spring and Autumn Period can let go of their desire for power, then feudal fiefdom is also a kind of great unification.
But the problem is that no one can let it go, so once it is divided it is almost inevitable that it will split.
