Three Kingdoms: I choose to assist Sun Jian

If this problem of this aristocratic family is not resolved, then even if he helps Sun Jian take over the world, he will only be brought into ruin by the aristocratic family just like the Jin Dynasty!

In a sense, although the Jin Dynasty was unified, it was only a continuation of the Han Dynasty.

As long as the system does not change and the aristocratic family dies, the dynasty they create will be nothing more than the next Jin Dynasty.

It's still very likely to happen.

However, he couldn't say that.

At least not now!

Because neither the timing nor the conditions are ripe!

After all, if you want to rule a family, you must only rule the family under your command. If you are not under your command, then you have the ability to reach the sky, and you are just adding enemies to yourself.

And relying on their current strength, if they want to declare war on the world's aristocratic families, I am afraid that they are a bit overconfident.

In the same way, of course the Central Plains family must be governed, but the conflict between them and the Central Plains family has not yet reached the point where governance is necessary.

And now these frontier aristocratic families are the ones they can govern and urgently govern.

Only by starting from the local area and gradually expanding to the overall situation can it be possible to achieve the most thorough innovation.

And following Bai Liming's words, both Sun Jian and Sun Ce and Zhou Yu fell into silence for an instant.

Until this moment, they didn't know why Bai Liming chose to speak in private this time, and so formally!

Because the enemies they faced this time were far from being as simple as one or two sheriffs!

Instead, it involves all the aristocratic families in Kuaiji and Yuzhang, including Wu County!

It is no exaggeration to say that if Bai Liming's words are spread in the public, then he will face accusations and abuse from countless people, and even endless assassinations!

Intuition told Sun Jian that what Bai Liming was going to talk about next must be some strategies for reforming and governing the country.

Thinking of this, he immediately got up again, and bowed to Bai Liming from a distance:

"How to solve this matter, please teach me sir!"

Seeing this, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu looked at Bai Liming solemnly.

If Bai Liming showed his military strategy before, then based on these words now, he can see that his overall view is far beyond ordinary people!

Obviously, the gentleman is also very proficient in the way of governing the country!

They will wait and see Bailiming's policy!

But seeing Sun Jian saluting so solemnly, Bai Liming couldn't sit still, and hurried forward to support him:

"My lord doesn't need to be like this!"

As he spoke, he smiled slightly and said:

"My lord, have you forgotten?"

"Besides being a military advisor, Ming should not drive in Yangzhou!"

"Now that our army has achieved great momentum, Wang Lang and Hua Xin are all dead bones in the tomb, and they are no longer worthy."

"When our army takes Yangzhou, Ming will naturally have to think about how to govern Yangzhou!"

As soon as these words came out, Sun Jian couldn't help shaking his head and said with a smile:

"Ruozhong, Ruozhong, how do you tell me to say that you are good!"

"You are truly the genius of Wang Zuozhi who came from heaven to me!"

"Forget it, since Ruo Zhong doesn't accept it, let's talk about your strategy first!"

"In your opinion, how should these families be governed?"

Hearing these words, Bai Liming started to pace in a deep groan:

"If you want to govern these aristocratic families, you must know how harmful these aristocratic families are to our army!"

"Count out all of them one by one, and then you can make them in corresponding ways!"

"In Yiming's opinion, the biggest problem of these aristocratic families is their selfishness!"

"Confucius said: The son hides for the father, and the father hides for the son, straight in it."

"Nowadays, the Han family respects Confucianism, and these aristocratic families use this as a wise saying. Anyone who is an official, no matter good or bad, if he does not consider his family, he is a sinner of the family!"

"Based on this, anyone who regards a family member as an official will inevitably bend the law for personal gain when he is in office!"

"Nowadays our army lacks talents, it is inevitable to recruit these scholars as officials, which will give these aristocratic families an opportunity to take advantage of!"

"But if the children of the aristocratic family are not officials, one will have a bad reputation in our army, and the other will be that our army's talent reserve is also not enough!"

"This is the number one problem these aristocratic families pose to our army!"

"Ruo Zhong is right!"

When Sun Jian heard this, he said in a deep voice:

"This is indeed the number one problem!"

"From the current four surnames in Wuzhong, it can be seen that they can grow so strong after being an official for more than ten years!"

"Even the upright Lu Jining must be one of the strengths of the Lu family!"

"This matter must not be ignored!"

When Sun Ce and Zhou Yu heard this, they naturally nodded again and again.

Not to mention Lu Kang, even Zhou Yu himself, as a child of the Zhou family, if there is an opportunity to help the family grow, they may choose to help!

Thinking of this, Zhou Yu frowned and said:

"Sir, what you said hits the nail on the head."

"According to what you said, our army seems to have no way to deal with this trouble!"

"otherwise!"

Bai Liming laughed and said:

"I have a strategy, which may alleviate this phenomenon!"

Sun Jian heard this and hurriedly said:

"What's Ruo Zhong's plan for this?"

"This strategy is simple to say, it is nothing more than a compromise!"

Bai Liming said in a deep voice:

"Since we want to take these people as officials, we might as well give a restriction so that these people can't use their power to directly help the family!"

"How can it be restricted?"

Sun Jian hurriedly asked.

"It's very simple, the key is to separate the place where it governs from the place where its home is!"

Bai Liming laughed and said:

"Practically, it is eight words, the people from the south rule the north, and the people from the north rule the south." Yi.

Chapter 096 Three moves, put heavy shackles on the family

Southerners rule the North, Northerners rule the South!

When Sun Jian heard these eight words, the eyes of the three of them lit up.

Immediately realized the beauty of this strategy.

Because the disadvantage of being an official for the children of aristocratic families comes from the investigation system.

The first is because the probation system monopolizes the chances of advancement for most of the family's children, and the strong will always be strong.

The second is because most of them are officials in the local area after the investigation, and they are doing harm to one side.

And Baili Ming's policy avoided the disaster of being an official in the local prosecutor system.

An example can be given very simply, such as the Yuan family, the largest family in the late Han Dynasty.

Although the Yuan family has four generations and three generations, no matter how they become officials in Luoyang, the foundation of the Yuan family can only be in Runan.

Just because the Yuan family is an official in Luoyang, they will not be able to move their roots to Luoyang.

The meaning of Bai Liming's strategy is also very simple, which is to transfer these scholars away from the place where the family is located.

In this way, the selfishness of these officials can be initially resolved!

Because no matter how selfish you are, if you are an official in Huainan, it is impossible to directly affect Jiangdong's family.

The impact that can be achieved is only indirect.

The advantage of this is that the power of officials is immediately limited.

And on this basis, it can also be extended to the rotation of the official system, changing every few years, so that these aristocratic families are also the largest in other places!

Thinking of this, Sun Jian stroked his beard with a smile and said:

"If you want to use this strategy, it's simple but direct!"

"After our army occupies Yangzhou, we can follow this plan!"

Zhou Yu also smiled and said:

"Sir, once this strategy is implemented, our army can use these aristocratic children with peace of mind. First, it can alleviate the shortage of talents, and second, it can temporarily protect the aristocratic family from growing stronger. It's really good words!"

As for Sun Ce, he is first-class in war, but two-handed in politics. Hearing that this is useful, he naturally nodded his head again and again.

Facing the compliments from the three, Bai Liming shook his head and said with a smile:

"You don't need to do this, this strategy is a solution to the symptoms, not the root cause!"

"To completely eradicate the troubles of these aristocratic families, this strategy alone is not enough!"

"I know that Ruo Zhong must have a plan in his belly!"

Sun Jian said with a smile:

"Since you can tell the family's first problem, then you must have a second problem and a solution to it!"

Zhou Yu hurriedly said:

"That's right, sir, the first problem is selfishness, and the second problem is probably the influence of these aristocratic families!"

"Correct!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Liming said:

"If the first problem is the family's problem to our army, then the second problem is the country's problem!"

"There is no family in the world that does not use the field as its foundation!"

"With this as the foundation, we will annex the fields and expand our property!"

"But if you have land, someone has to cultivate it, and these aristocratic families will take in refugees as domestic slaves and become their own private property!"

"In this troubled world, this is the second problem!"

Speaking of him here, he couldn't help but look at Sun Jian and said solemnly:

"This trouble is a trouble that shakes the foundation of the country, so don't worry about it!"

What he said was not alarmist, but the annexation of aristocratic families and the concealment of population during the Three Kingdoms period had reached a crazy point.

The population dropped sharply during the Eastern Han Dynasty, half of which was the fault of the aristocratic family!

Before the Yellow Turban, the population of the Eastern Han Dynasty was nearly 6000 million, but when the three points returned to the Jin Dynasty, the paper data fell to a shockingly less than [-] million.

If it is understandable to say that at the end of the Han Dynasty, there were frequent wars and turmoil, the disease continued, and the population dropped sharply, then in a place where the political situation is stable, the population still drops sharply, which is a problem.

The most obvious is the Shu Kingdom under Liu Bei's command.

Before Liu Bei entered Shu, the population was nearly 800 million!

But when the Kingdom of Shu fell, the population was less than one million.

And this is still under Zhuge Liang's governance!

It's fine to say that Zhuge Liang is a murderous maniac, but Zhuge Liang is still a capable minister.
