1182 The old thief is cunning
When Pu Hong heard this, the melancholy on his face became even stronger, and he pointed at Pu An and said with some dissatisfaction: "I have said so much, just to tell you to wait for a reason." Born in this world, it is a big mistake to be weaker than others, and if you are not strong enough to be human, you deserve to die, and it has nothing to do with whether you are guilty or not. Which of those fierce people on the domineering side didn't climb up by stepping on the bones of the living? What kind of reasoning will he talk to you about? ”
"Guo Chun and his people have come to vote for the poor, and now it is really helpful to me, why don't I accept it? As for the fate of our clan in the future, it depends on whether the power of our clan can be used for it, and how can it be missed in these small sections? That Shen Weizhou is a heroic stream who can peek into the power of the world, if I am talented enough to help him succeed, how can he abandon me because of just one Guo Chun? ”
Speaking of this, Pu Hong looked at Pu Jian again, and said in a deep voice: "This matter also teaches you a truth, such as Shen Weizhou, a hero whose prestige and reputation has been passed on to the world, and he still has to ask for the help of the public to achieve his hegemony, what qualifications do you have to pick and choose people to vote for?" Guo Chunqi is just a lackey who has lost his family and the public, and it is a trivial matter to accept or not. But the poor man chooses me to seek refuge, because in his opinion, my ambition is enough to cover him, these modest names, you ask yourself, how much does it have to do with you? Are you qualified to decide on your father's behalf? ”
When Pu Jian heard this, his face was already full of shame, and he was speechless. And although Pu Hong's reprimand was ostensibly teaching his son, everyone present heard it in their ears and felt a lot of feelings in their hearts, and understood that it was also alluding to them.
"What is the current power of my clan, it is superfluous to talk about whether the Jin army has harmed me or not! Then Shen Weizhou is menacing to Guanzhong, what is his intention to be in me, a weak clan? There are many strong beams in Guanzhong, and our clan is in it, and the strength is not stronger than people, and the strength is not greater than people. No matter how strong the Jin army is, its army is still outside the three auxiliaries, what danger and disaster are there at the moment that are worth abandoning your affairs here and fighting endlessly? ”
When Pu Hong said this, his tone was a little cold. Although he was nominally the leader of the clan, in fact he did not have any prestige, otherwise he would not have been forced to surrender to Liu Yao by his clansmen many years ago, and was forced to abandon the foundation of Luoyang and move to Chang'an.
Although in the past few years, he has also quietly weakened and suppressed Puguang and other clansmen who participated in the persecution of him in the early years, but in fact, the clan power is still scattered in the hands of a group of clansmen, and he can only rely on the prestige he has accumulated over the years to deter everyone.
Recently, due to the Jin army's westward expedition, the situation in Guanzhong has been unpredictable, and the future of the entire tribe is also bleak, which has also greatly reduced Puhong's prestige among the tribe. Disputes like Guo Chun's have occurred more than once.
Therefore, in Pu Hong's view, this state of disheartenedness, lack of authority and reverence in the tribe is even more harmful to the future of the tribe than the Jin army's westward expedition.
As he said earlier, it was impossible for the Jin army to exterminate all the miscellaneous Hu in Guanzhong, at most it concentrated on a few powerful targets, or co-opted or suppressed them to demonstrate their authority.
There is still a chance that their tribe will be targeted and must be eradicated, but the distraction of the tribe will weaken the already weak forces. If there is not enough cohesion, not to mention whether the Jin army Wang Shixi will deal with them after entering the main pass, it is very likely that the various conveniences in the Guanzhong will attack them first.
Born in this life, Pu Hong did not have one or two ambitions in his heart, but the reality hit him one after another. Since the turmoil in Yongjia, although the tribe has not suffered any catastrophe under his leadership, the situation has also deteriorated, and it is not optimistic.
Fang Jinshi Dao, there is no one in China, and the border soldiers are striving to advance.
Compared with those majestic heroes, Pu Hong does not feel that he has any obvious deficiencies in talent, what he lacks is only a little luck, to be more accurate, and the Liu Yao and Shi Hu he listed before, including Shen Weizhou of the Jin Kingdom, who is now strong, what he lacks is only that he did not get a long-term object of protection and borrowing when he was weak.
Liu Yao is Liu Yuan's false son, Shi Hu is Shi Le's son, and Shen Weizhou is the concubine of the Jin State and the local tyrant of the Southern Countryside. It is precisely because they have their own support behind them that these people can perform their abilities and shine in the world.
However, the Puhong tribe was not strong in the situation of Guanzhong, and lacked the strength to compete for hegemony independently, and the relatively closed situation in Guanzhong also made him lack the opportunity for Shi Shilong to switch to the north and south and become bigger. The hearts of his own people cannot be cohesive, and the several main forces that have taken refuge in one after another will not last long, so he is trapped in the quagmire, and even if he has talent, it is difficult to display it.
At this moment, the clansmen in the tent all became silent because of Pu Hong's interrogation and reprimand, and Pu Hong couldn't help but sneer in his heart when he saw this. He also knew that if he wanted to lift the hearts of the people again, it was really difficult to reprimand him with words alone.
Taking advantage of the silence of everyone, Pu Hongcai spoke again: "The future of our clan is indeed unpredictable, but it is much better than the old Qiang Yao thief who is trapped in Long. The Qiang slaves took advantage of the old Zhao to occupy the land of our clan and did not return it for a long time. But now Longshang is also a brawl between all parties, the Jin army Wang Shixing is about to enter the customs, Liangzhou Zhang's family must also look at Longshang, there are poor attacks before and after, Yao thief is not easy to get out this time! ”
What can make people happy in the midst of a difficult situation is not that the situation is immediately improved, but that there are people who are more miserable than themselves. So after hearing Pu Hong say this, a series of malicious laughter suddenly sounded in the camp.
Guan Zhongyi is half, and among the various Yi tribes, the Qiang people are the most powerful, relatively speaking, the Qiang people are better than the Di people. Because the Qiang people joined the rule of Guanxi as early as the Han and Wei dynasties, such as Yao Yizhong's Nan'an Qiang, his father Ke Hui was the general of Zhenxi and the governor of Xiqiang in Cao Wei, until Yao Yizhong moved to Yumei near Huangshui.
Yumei is on the right side of the wind, and the Pu clan who live in Longshang Luoyang originally did not violate the river water, but after the Liu family entered the Guanzhong, the two tribes were reversed, so there was a contradiction.
The idea of missing their homeland is not unique to the Jin people, and they also have this kind of feeling. Relatively speaking, the emotional demands and actual needs of the Di people are more urgent, especially after being expelled from Sanfu by Sanfu Haoqiang, the Di people are in urgent need of a place to live, and the original hometown of Luoyang has naturally become their first choice.
However, it is not easy to return to the homeland, although the Pu family lives in Luoyang, it is far from the extent of dominating the county alone, and there is no lack of old enmity in the countryside, so those people will join forces with the Yao family to resist the Pu family's relocation. The two sides fought several battles and won and lost each other, blocking Pu's strongly.
At this moment, hearing that the Yao clan, the thief who had stolen their homeland, was about to suffer, everyone's hearts were naturally filled with heartfelt happiness. Many people also said that they should take this opportunity to attack the Yao clan and expel these Qiang slaves from their homeland!
After hearing this, Pu Hong shook his head and said, "If the Yao thief could be driven out in previous years, I would lead the people to fight without your advice." But now that the drastic changes in Guanzhong are imminent, even if our subordinates return to their hometowns, it is actually difficult to do anything, and they are nothing more than snatching the Yao family's suffering to bear it themselves. ”
"Liangzhou Zhang's family has been looking at Longshang for many years, although his family has been far away for a long time and has long been divided, but he always calls himself a Jin minister. At present, the Jin army is coming west, and it is echoing with his subordinates, and the Zhang family will definitely attack Longshang. Besides, there are also a group of thieves and disputes under Longshang, my department has been away from my hometown for a long time, and I have forgotten the nostalgia, and I am afraid that I will have to bear the attack of those hometown enemies, and I can't stand on it! ”
Although the subordinates felt homesick, this was not enough to influence Puhong's decision. Although he is already in his sixties, his ambition has not been extinguished, and he hopes to take advantage of the drastic changes in the situation in Guanzhong to make a difference.
"But if we don't attack Yao Thief, where should our people go? When the Jin army comes to the west, Jingzhao will be war-torn, and our department has no ...... even one or two to hold on to at the moment."
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help frowning and wondering, full of confusion.
"We don't attack Longshang, we attack Huaili!"
When Pu Hong said this, his tone became firm: "At present, all parties in Guanzhong are looking forward to Jingzhao and Feng Yi, and the location of Fufeng is ignored. After the surprise attack conquered Huaili, you can sweep the Yumei Yao thief countryside in the near future, and you can conquer the Liu thief king in the north! ”
This is where Puhong's strategy lies, in addition to the current Jin army's Wang Shi Chen Bing Sanfu, even if there is another battle in the coming year, the first to bear the brunt will be Jingzhao, where Chang'an is located, and Feng Yi opposite Fenyin, as for Fufeng County further west, it is still a base behind the battle line.
By attacking Huaili, the seat of Fufeng County, you can not only collect funds along the way, but also avoid the edge of the Jin army's attack next year. Emotionally speaking, since the Yao clan occupies their Luoyang township, then they will kill the Yao clan's Fufeng clan, which also has a great effect on the integration of military morale.
And morally speaking, if they can enter the heart of Fufeng County, then they can set up a banner of rebellion at any time and continue to crusade north against Liu Changming, the king of thieves who pretends to be the king.
Of course, Tu Ge's power in Guanzhong was still strong, far from being matched by their Pu clan. Pu Hong didn't think about really raising a righteous teacher at all, but just used this to let his clan stand in a calm place.
The focus of the Jin army's strategy next year is nothing more than two, one is Chang'an, and the other is Liu Changming, the old Zhao remnant who is entrenched between Fengyi County and Beidi County and wants to restore the country. Chang'an is the focus of attention from all parties, and if Pu Hong's subordinates are invested in it, they will not be able to make any waves at all.
However, if the Han king Liu Changming was unfavorable in battle, and when the main force of the Jin army was attracting his military strength head-on, Pu Hong dared to insert it into his belly from Fufeng, which could not only take advantage of the fire to rob, but also take a reputation for helping the war.
"As for the first battle of attacking Huaili, it was taken by Guo Chun's department. It is also hard for our clan to accumulate these grain and grain resources, so naturally we do not support idlers. When his army has enough strength, he will let him lead his people north to attack the Liu's dock wall in this realm. During this time, there should be no shortage of military provisions. If you can't open Liu's Dock, it's not too late to ask again. ”
The Liu family is a big clan in the territory of Juxian County, and his home is based on a dangerous position, and Pu Hong cherishes the military strength and has not attacked it before. As early as when he decided to send someone to recruit the remnants of Guo Chun's army, he had already decided to let Guo Chun's troops work hard for him to capture this gateway to the north.
Then, he instructed Pu Andao: "When our department invades Huaili, you will go east to ask Shen Weizhou to see him, tell him that my department is loyal and righteous, and help Wang Shi capture the remnants of Guo thieves. ”
After hearing this, everyone understood that Pu Hong considered it all, and then reflected on the behavior of sheltering Guo Chun's remnants, which was really not a bad deed that violated the taboo of the king's order.
