Chapter 209 The influence of gate valves

"Brother Xu, this Sima Hui must be out of his mind. The three armies have not yet moved, and the food and grass go first. They wish to bring more food and grass in the war, but he is good. He asked us to bring less. What's the pretense of learning from Xiang Yu's failure."

While on the way, several acquaintances gathered around and complained about Sima Hui's honey operation.

"Oh, he, Sima Hui, didn't climb up step by step by his own ability. How much ability do you expect him to have? For a reckless man like him, reasoning and strategy are useless, only fighting is. The last word."

After finishing speaking, Brother Xu looked around and found that there were no strangers, so he raised his hand and pointed to his head, and said quietly,
"Everyone in the Sima family is mentally ill."

"Hahaha, poof..."

The people around forcibly held back their smiles, then looked at Sima Hui who was swaying on the horseback in front of him, and nodded in agreement.

"Forget it, forget it, this time I will remind everyone, everyone has prepared early, since our 20 army was swallowed by others last time, the risk of [-] now is also very high, especially Sima Hui is a brainless reckless man, so everyone remember to leave a way out for yourself."

After speaking, Brother Xu sighed and returned to his team.

This battle has not yet started, but a cloud has already shrouded the top of the Jin army.

"You mean that there is a high chance that Sima Hui will lead the team this time?"

"Yes, Your Highness, apart from me, there are only a few people who are qualified to lead hundreds of thousands of troops, and in this special turbulent period, Sima Lun will definitely choose the one he trusts the most, so Sima Hui of his Sima family are the most likely to get the job."

Ever since he knew the identities of Li Chengqian and Li Yi, Liu Bi's waist had never been straightened when speaking in front of Li Chengqian and the others, and he called each other more affectionately than anyone else.

God man!Can travel through time and space, this is a god-man!
Originally thought that I was in trouble and entered the den of thieves, but who knew that when I turned around, I fell into the den of dragons and phoenixes. If I don't seize this opportunity well, God will not let me go.

"Well, that makes sense. Do you know anything about Sima Hui?"

"Hahaha, Sima Hui is reckless, impulsive, arrogant, and doesn't think through his brains. If you really want to praise him, you should be able to add bravery, but his little force is not worth mentioning in front of General Wang. .”

After flattering Li Chengqian, Liu Bi did not forget Wang Li beside him. This is the banner of the Daqin disciples, and there is absolutely no harm in currying favor with him.

"Oh, Sima Hui is such a bad guy, how did he get to where he is now? Is it because of the surname Sima alone? Has the Jin family dynasty fallen to this point?"

It's really a joke that a reckless man with well-developed limbs and a simple mind actually took the position of commanding an army of hundreds of thousands.

"Your Highness does not know, although Sima Hui is not worth mentioning, but his father was the founding general who followed Jinwu Emperor Sima Yan to fight in the north and south, so he relied on his father's shadow to get to this point. "

In China, many people have believed in a common saying since ancient times, that is, the dragon begets the dragon, the phoenix begets the phoenix, and the son of a mouse can make holes.

Your father is great, so everyone's first impression of you is that you are also great. If your father is not good, then you must not be good either.

This concept, especially in the Jin Dynasty, became a rule system and express law, which is the well-known Zhongzheng Jiupin System.

The Nine-rank Zhongzheng System, also known as the Nine-rank Official Person Law, was an important official selection system during the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties. It was the system that Wei Wendi Cao Pi adopted in the opinion of Chen Qun, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and ordered him to formulate it in the first year of Huangchu (220). This system gradually became complete in the Western Jin Dynasty, and changed in the Northern and Southern Dynasties.

The Jiupin Zhongzheng system has existed for more than 400 years in ancient Chinese history. It was not until the imperial examination system appeared in the Sui and Tang Dynasties that it gradually began to decline, but this concept has been handed down.

The Jiupin Zhongzheng System has three main contents. The first is family background, which is your family background and your ancestors.

The second is the shape, which is your behavior and ability. After the inspection, you can start to decide the product, which is the third step.

So now I know why Sima Hui can hold such a high position, because he is of high rank, and he is also a figure of the third rank. Taking a small official as someone is an insult to him.

Rank is not only related to your official career, but also related to your reputation and influence in society.

Let's give an example, let's take the most famous "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

"I am a commoner, working hard in Nanyang, and surviving in troubled times."

Everyone should know who said this, Wolong Zhuge Liang's "Teacher's List".

Returning commoner clothes, he Zhuge Liang is farting, if he Zhuge Liang is commoner, how many people can call themselves famous families.

He, Zhuge Liang, was born in the Zhuge family of Yangdu County, Langya County. The Zhuge family is the first-class family in Langya, and is famous all over the world. Before Zhuge Liang came out of the mountain, the reputation of Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Cub spread all over the world. Why, it is not their family background good.

If he, Zhuge Liang, were really a commoner, it would be impossible for him to achieve such a great achievement. If you have a bad background, no one will listen to your words.

After talking about Zhuge Liang, let's talk about Zhuge Liang's protagonist, Liu Bei and Uncle Liu Huang.

It is indeed a very inspirational story that Liu Bei went from a struggle selling straw sandals to becoming the king of Shu Han, one-third of the world.

When Liu Bei first conquered the world, he always called his clan relatives of the Han family. He was the Queen of Zhongshan County. He tried every means to get a little relationship with the Han family. Why?
Isn't it just an identity, as long as he has this identity, he is qualified to talk to others, and he is qualified to let others come to seek refuge.

For this identity, Liu Bei suffered a lot. In order for Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty to recognize his status as the emperor's uncle, Liu Bei personally went to battle and issued a belt edict, and almost lost his life in the hands of Cao Cao. .

But are you asking for value?Liu Bei will only say, it's worth it!
Without the title of Uncle Emperor, Liu Bei would not have achieved one-third of the world until his death. This is the concrete manifestation of the influence of reputation on a person during that period.

But when it comes to status, Liu Bei is still a wild man after all. In terms of status, compared to me, the fourth and third generation of the Yuan family, he is a bit better, hahahahaha.

I don't know what kind of thing Yuan Shao is. His Yuan family's early advantages can completely overwhelm the world, but he has a top-notch hand that he beats into a pile of shit.

Yuan Shao and the Yuan family have a lot of status. They are the fourth generation and the third prince. They are a famous family in Hebei and the highest family in Hebei. They are also among the top three wealthy families in the world.

Yuan Shao also said something awesome,
"I, Yuan Gonglu, never knew who Liu Bei was!"

So, instead of saying that the Three Kingdoms is a heroic stage where your side sings and our side comes on stage, it is better to say that this is a game duel between powerful families.

Speaking of this, everyone now understands how natural it is for Sima Hui to be the commander of this 20 army. I am a person from the third rank, and I can lead your 20 army?
I can get you 50 yuan, but I am on the third rank!
"Your Highness, our military spies have just sent news that the Jin army has sent 20 horses to encircle and suppress us."

"What, they came to surround us and they actually took the initiative?"

Stepping down from his seat, Li Chengqian was very surprised. He always thought that Sima Lun was guarding his hometown at this time, waiting for him to attack in Luoyang City.

But he never expected that Sima Lun would actually send an army to encircle and suppress him, how much he must hate himself!

"Then who is the commander-in-chief of the Jin army this time?"

"Reporting to Your Highness, it is Sima Hui."

"..."

Liu Bi nodded charmingly to meet Li Chengqian's gaze, but secretly clenched his hands into fists.

That's great, that's great, I guessed it right, and this is the beginning of my road to fortune!

"Okay, Gu Du knows it, you go down, you continue to investigate the Jin army."

"Your Highness, I have another piece of information."

Li Chengqian stopped his steps, turned around and looked at the paper in the scout's hand, and then opened it for a look.

"What are you talking about, throwing everything at the bottom of the boat and turning to the light?"

Looking at the information in his hand, Li Chengqian felt like he was reading the Arabian Nights. Are you sure this is what a general will do?
"What? Show me."

"Ahem, let me read it to you, Master."

After clearing his throat, Li Chengqian began to read the contents of the letter to the people present.

It turned out that the aristocratic army in charge of resistance in front had already had preliminary contact with the Jin army. This contact did not mean that they had already fought, but that the aristocratic army had received several people who came to find out and said they would take refuge.

Before the battle even started, there were already several waves of people from the Jin army coming to join Li Chengqian and the others, and at the same time, they spoke out Sima Hui's rubbish idea of ​​breaking the boat.

"What the hell, he's playing desperate, even if he wants to play, he doesn't play like this, doesn't he bring enough food and grass, isn't this the way out?"

Not to mention Wang Li and the others, even Li Yi, a military rookie, knows how important food and grass are.

If you don’t bring enough food and grass, I won’t fight you head-on when the war comes, so I’ll just delay it for a few days. At this time, your food and grass are gone and I’ll go back. What can you do? You have nothing to do!
This guy was sent by Sima Lun to laugh us to death!
"It's stable, it's stable. This battle is completely stable. Go and give the order. Tell us that we will accept all those who come to seek refuge. As many people as you want. If he surrenders all his 20 troops, we will accept him."

After the messengers left, Li Chengqian began to hum a little song proudly, and his feet felt windy when he walked.

"You kid, you're getting carried away, aren't you?"

"No, no, how dare I get carried away in front of my master? Besides, my apprentice's small achievements are not even as good as your master's fingernails. How can I get carried away in front of you?"

Holding Li Yi's hand, Li Chengqian jumped up and down around Li Yi like a monkey.

"Hmph, it's fine if you don't have one. Although the balance of victory has been tilted towards you now, you still have to be a good coach. Among other things, how to make your soldiers survive better is something you have to keep in mind." living."

"Chengqian understands."

"Well, it's good to understand. Then I went back and stayed here for a day or two. I think Liu Xun must have been crazy waiting for me at this time."

Thinking of Liu Xun's furious appearance at this time, Li Yi couldn't help grinning, telling you to laugh at me, to see if you dare to follow me in the future.

"Master, you are back."

"Fuck, who is screaming... calling... so it's you, Shiman."

As soon as Li Yi went out, he heard someone calling him husband, and jumped up in fright. These days, there are too many people who want to recognize him as their husband, so always remember to be careful.

But when he looked back and saw Ying Shiman, Li Yi immediately remembered that he seemed to be married a few days ago, and he also had a wife, so he was no longer an old bachelor.

"What's the matter, sir? Why are you so sneaky?"

"It's nothing, it's just... I'm avoiding Liu Xun, yes, I'm avoiding that guy Liu Xun, I left him here for a few days, he must be very angry at this time, if he touches him It will definitely hit me."

Looking at Ying Charmaine's confused face, Li Yi hurriedly found an excuse for himself and couldn't help but praise his wit.

"No way, I don't think Liu Xun should be so grumpy."

Looking at Ying Shiman winking, Li Yi didn't react for a while, but hurriedly defended his words.

"Why not? You don't know how hard he hit Liu Shi. Those slaps hit Liu Shi so hard that it hurt when I heard them."

"Oh, really, does it hurt to hear it? Do you want to listen to it now?"

Hearing the voice from behind, Li Yi was stunned for a moment, then slowly turned his head, looking at Liu Xun who was sitting there expressionless, Liu Xun who was standing aside covering his face in shame, and smiling while covering his mouth. Liu Xie.

Fuck, why are these three guys here, bragging about others and speaking ill of them in front of the protagonist of the story, this is too embarrassing.

"This...haha...Old Liu, why are you here?"

Li Yi's face was a little embarrassed, he could only laugh and laugh a few times.

"Why can't I be here? I've been drinking tea here these days and waiting for you to come back. Sure enough, it seems that I didn't make a mistake in coming. I can still see a big show today. It's worth it."

"Here, Lao Liu, don't be so eccentric. What I said just now is a bit exaggerated, but it is the truth after all. For the sake of my exaggeration, come on, why don't you hit me a few times to vent your anger?"

Li Yi stretched out his hand in front of Liu Xun, and then shrank back and forth.

"Is it really difficult?"

"this is OK!"

In order to calm Liu Xun's anger, Li Yi felt that he had to make a huge sacrifice today.

"Okay, very good, Li Yi, you are a real man."

Liu Xun stood up and patted Li Yi's shoulder, then his smiling face suddenly turned into an angry one,
"He's a real man, let me die today!"

"Damn it, you fucking hit me!"

"If I don't hit you today, it's hard to vent my anger."

"I was wrong, I was wrong, Lao Liu, please let me go."

"Impossible, die, the White Emperor Holy Sword follows me!"
