1181 Guanzhong Future
There is also no shortage of disagreements within the Pu clan about whether to accept and contain the remnants of Guo Chun's department.
The young and strong people in the clan like Pu Xie naturally looked down on Guo Chun's generals and weak soldiers and failed disastrous divisions, especially Guo Chun's people who had fallen to this point and still could not hide the deep-rooted contempt for them in his mind. In their opinion, for such a person who does not know the current affairs, it is necessary to kill the killer and teach the other party with bloody facts which side of the current power is.
As for an old and serious person like Pu An, it was because he was worried that containing Guo Chun might anger the general Shen of the Jin State who was currently gaining momentum. Although the Jin King's division has not yet completely entered Guanzhong, no one would expect that these strong beams in Guanzhong still have the ability to prevent the Jin King's division from advancing into Guanzhong.
It is conceivable that in the future, Guanzhong will soon be dominated by the Jin kings, and even if they contain the remnants of Guo Chun, their strength will not be strong enough to compete with the Jin army. If that General Shen provoked because of this in the future, it would really be an unwarranted disaster for their tribe that would outweigh the losses.
Once the topic was opened, everyone present also expressed their opinions. In the unpredictable situation of the current Guanzhong, it is normal to have different views on a matter, some people oppose the acceptance of Guo Chun, and naturally some people support it, and these supporters also have good reasons.
First of all, although Guo Chun's remnants were defeated, their combat effectiveness was still unbeatable. No matter how far the situation in Guanzhong develops in the future, it is the most fundamental task to develop and strengthen its own strength.
No matter how powerful the Jin army is, after all, it has not yet become the master of Guan Zhi, and it is really a shameful cowardice to turn away this help out of fear alone.
Secondly, their Diren Pu clan is not the most eye-catching force in the current pass, and naturally they will not become the first target of the Jin army. If the Jin army wants to actually threaten their survival and safety, they still have to gain a foothold in Chang'an Sanfu before they can consider it.
At present, although the Jin army is coming violently, it has begun to shrink its forces after conquering Shangluo, and it does not plan to attack Sanfu within this winterβ₯ and the war will start again next year, the first to bear the brunt is the Jin people between Sanfu, and they still have enough time to wait and see the situation.
The third is that although Guo Chun has been beaten like a lost dog, Guo was also the overlord of Guanzhong in his early years, and his strong posture still made the Guanzhong group heard a lot. The Pu family can help a little when he is in trouble, and he can also establish the image of his family's benevolence and righteousness, which is still very beneficial to appease the surrounding small tribes.
Pu Hong sees these reasons more thoroughly.
"Although the east of Heluo in the name of Xingtai, it seems to be righteous, but deep into the fundamentals, the late emperor of the Jin Dynasty was captured in Chang'an for the old Zhao Liu Yongming, and its national fortune and royal spirit have long been lost here. The only thing that is troubled is that there are frequent turmoil in Guanzhong, and there has been no intimidation of the heroes for a long time. β
Pu Hong is fierce and cunning, and he has a lot of thoughts about the changes in the current situation and the subtleties of people's hearts, and now he analyzes it with a firm face: "The general Shen between Heluo and Luo said that the king ordered the Jin ministers, but in the final analysis, it was nothing more than Nanxiang Daoyi, taking advantage of the collapse of the world to rise up in the border wilderness, relying on his fierce and brave countryside to cut off the Chinese people in Jiangbiao, controlling the Jin Emperor Yu Jianye, and abusing the edict in China. β
"In previous years, he was dominant in Guanzhong, the old Zhao Liu Yongming was just a fake son of the Han Emperor Liu Yuanhai, and the Han Kingdom was in chaos, so he could make new branches on the old tree. Shi Jilong of the Kingdom of Qianguo is also an ugly person who kills his compatriots, relying on his courage and tyranny to the world. That Daoyi Shen Weizhou, what is the difference between it and these two? If he really regarded himself as a pure and virtuous minister of the Jin Kingdom, how could he be in a hurry to kill a Chinese high-ranking family like Hongnong Yang in order to establish his authoritative criminal law? β
Pu Hong counted it with his fingers, and then sighed: "If these are the three, although they have different strengths and endowments, they are all fish and turtles in the same pond when it comes to the fundamentals. They are all from the border barbarians, taking advantage of the collapse of the general trend and no one in China, each taking advantage of the power to rise up, climbing on top of the boss to create their own momentum, and only then did they become the hegemons of the Weijia side. β
"We, the savages, can't be listed among the strong, and it's not easy to survive in the chaotic domain in this level. Liu Yongming took away the people of my country, Shi Jilong took away my flesh and blood, and although Shen Weizhou has not yet entered the Sanfu, do you think that he will treat us who cannot enter his decree? He is a strong lord, once he enters the Guanzhong, no matter whether there is the crime of our department to contain Guo Chun, he will inevitably add me to make things difficult! β
When Pu Hong said this, tears of grief and indignation flashed in his eyes. For those ordinary people, he has more than tens of thousands of people, crisscrossing many counties inside and outside Sanfu, and is a hegemon.
But this does not mean that he has lived much more calmly than ordinary small people over the years, although he has power, he is still far inferior to the real overlord.
In his early years, he also fantasized that he could take advantage of the collapse of the world and gather his troops to divide one side, but when Liu Yao of Han Zhao proclaimed himself emperor in Chang'an, those people of the same clan who originally elected him as the leader were afraid of Liu Yongming's turbulent power and forced him to submit to him. The consequence was that its forces were forced to move away from their homeland, and they were unable to move near Chang'an.
Later, it was not easy to take advantage of the defeat of the Liu clan to gain a little autonomy, but the subsequent attack on Guan Zhi Shihu was a more tyrannical and domineering person than Liu Yao, and the Pu family had moved away from the old homeland for many years, and his power was gradually weakening, and he was even more unable to resist, so he could only lead the crowd to follow.
Although Shi Hu did not stay in Guanzhong for a long time, he still recruited more than 2,000 strong soldiers from the Pu clan to be organized as righteous servants, and even Pu Hong's two older sons were coerced into joining the army and returning to Hebei with him. As the situation in the Central Plains corroded, the fortunes of the state of China were cut in half, and the roads to and from here were cut off, and Pu Hong didn't even know whether his two sons were alive or dead.
Hearing Pu Hong's words, everyone in the tent was speechless, and even the young and strong Pu Jiang in the clan was really difficult to make any eloquent words at this time, and they were really inferior to others.
"If it is really as Grandpa said, once the Jin army enters the Guanzhong, it will definitely not treat our clan well, then how should our clan survive? Can you only wander around in this Kansai land and wait for death? β
There was silence in the tent for a long time, and another young man opened his mouth to ask, it was Pu Hong's young son Pu Xiong, who saw that all the people in the house were in a depressed posture, so he continued: "Although the Jin army is temporarily outside the three auxiliaries at the moment, it is only waiting for the season. Judging by its momentum, it will definitely be a large-scale attack in the coming year, and the three auxiliary villagers are still not enough to defend the households, and it is really difficult to stop the offensive of the Jin army."
When everyone heard this, they all looked at Pu Hong, including Pu An and others, who had previously advocated bowing their heads to the Jin army's Wang Shi, who were also at a loss at this time. In addition to the Jin army Wang Shi who was afraid of the western expedition, in addition to the fact that the Jin army was indeed powerful, there was also the cruelty and murderous nature shown by the Shen general, who was much more vicious than the Liu and Shi clans in the early years.
Although Han Zhao and Shi Zhao also ravaged Guanzhong with strong armies one after another, causing a lot of killings, their killings were not uncontrolled. At least as long as the local township heroes are willing to bow their heads, they have not been killed, and the real suffering is still those who have no way to rely on them.
The two Zhao intersected in charge of Guanzhong, although the local tycoons were also suppressed, but as long as they could show a deferential attitude, those in power were not lacking in restraint and wooing them, and they did not blindly force them to be eradicated.
However, before the Jin army entered Sanfu, they killed the Hongnong Yang clan, a leading Xiangzong who was quite famous among both the Chinese and the Hu tribes, and even uprooted them. You must know that this is an evil thing that the two Hu regimes have not done before, so they are really frightened by the arrival of the Jin army.
When Pu Hong heard this, he laughed instead, pointed to his son and sighed: "Xing observes the world, but what he sees is still too shallow. Guan Zhonghua is miscellaneous, the situation is complicated, how can you blindly kill the state poorly. Although Shen Weizhou belongs to the same category as Liu Yongming and Shi Jilong, there are still differences after all. Liu Shi and the like were all arrogances and hypocrisy, so they treated the Sanfu Chinese clan preferentially and showed their solemn orders. Daoyi Shen Weizhou originally climbed to the orthodoxy of the southern kingdom, and killed the Chinese who moved south to take power, but now that he has become powerful, how can he recruit those old clans in the north to share the authority of the edict enjoyed by them"
"But Grandpa obviously has already lost the royal spirit of Jin in the preface"
Pu Xiong still didn't understand his father's explanation, so he asked again.
"This is the difference between the children of my clan and those who are truly heroic, it is still difficult for us to survive at the moment, what is the help of orthodoxy or not? But if the real power reaches Shen Weizhou, what he wants is to rule the world, decree Huayi, and make people willing to follow him, then he must always give the world an explanation, where did he get the authority of this law. β
In fact, Pu Hong's understanding of this kind of broad and big topic is also shallow, and he can only teach his children in the way he understands: "For example, a blunt knife can not kill chickens in hand, and holding it in the hands of wrestlers can make the crowd timid." That Jin Tong Wang Qi is a blunt knife, but in the hands of that Daoyi, it has been polished into a sharp blade. β
Seeing that his brother and son Lang were still at a loss, he simply stopped dwelling on this topic, and said: "Although Shen Weizhou is a fierce posture, after he enters the Guanzhong, he will definitely not hold the old state for a long time. At that time, Guan Zhonghua Yi will become his ruler of the land and obey the people, how can he kill his own forces? He holds the life of the King of Jin in his hand, and he doesn't need to rely on those old clans to subdue the Guan Zhonghua clan, so the heroes of Sanfu should be frightened by the disaster of the Hongnong Yang family. β
"But we Rong Hu and the like are originally outside his royal law, and we will only bow our heads when we are afraid of the strength of the swords and soldiers under his command. At present, half of the ant people in Guanzhong are Huayi, and the number of Yibu people in all sides even exceeds that of the Chinese, if he kills how much he can kill, it will only cause all parties to resist in fear. At that time, the chaos in Guanzhong was even more than in previous years, and those Chinese ants were looking up to him for shelter and peace, but they turned out to be even more sad to live, and they would definitely leave him. β
Speaking of this, Pu Hong's eyes gradually brightened: "That Shen Weizhou has grand ambitions, what he values most is to go north to compete with Ji Long for hegemony in Chu and Han, our Guanzhong is that he is only a side arch, as long as the heroes can respect his subordinates, it is impossible for him to put the strong army commander in the pass." Guan Zhonghua has his own royal law to deter, but to control our Yirong and the like, he still has to entrust the adults of various departments to help him. As long as our clan is not too reckless, he has been listed as a cleaning target at the beginning of his journey, and after surviving the beginning, there is still room for survival. β
"It's really as Brother Ao saw, we shouldn't have rushed to contain the Guo thief!"
Hearing Pu Hong's explanation, Pu An and other clansmen who were not willing to accept Guo Chun couldn't help but feel more worried on their faces, and they didn't want to be listed as a liquidation target for the first time, the less noticeable the better.
