Chapter 695 The real great cause!
The glorious history is flowing.
Information about the King of Yan State slowly emerged. After obtaining some information, Luo Zhang decisively cut off the King of Yan State's investigation.
The consumption of luck for human books is relatively small, but the consumption of luck for historical records is quite high, and they are generally only used to investigate key events.
On the book of human beings, the King of Yan State, who had always been quite mysterious to the people in the Central Plains, appeared.
He was a very tall and majestic man, with a layer of mist on his face, but one could still see that his eyes were full of unyielding arrogance. He held a sharp sword in his hand and rode a majestic horse.
There are words appearing on the human book.
[Yan Lin is majestic, always has the intention of fighting, is good at commanding thousands of troops, is violent and arbitrary, crazy and fearless. ]
Yan Lin is the current ruler of the State of Yan, but he was naturally not born with the surname Yan.
Today, the great nobles in the Yan State in Liaodong were all deprived of their surnames when their ancestors were exiled to the Xianbei Mountains in the extreme north of Liaodong.
For example, the Murong family was a Taoist family and thus took the surname Murong. After Yan Lin’s ancestors established the State of Yan, they followed the example of the former Zhou nobles and took the country as their surname, that is, Yan as their surname.
There is also very little information about Yan Lin.
Luo Zhang pondered and said, “This King of Yan seems to be a monarch who is good at martial arts, which is similar to what the family knows about him.
Violent and arbitrary, wild and fearless, this evaluation is somewhat speechless. "
The King of Yan was a military monarch. A monarch can be good at martial arts, but he cannot only have martial arts.
Luo Shu stretched out his hand and rubbed his brow and said, “However, a warrior monarch has a considerable advantage in the process of conquering the world.
If the time is right, he would very likely become a powerful enemy of the princes in the Central Plains.
The leader of the Liaodong Yan State may be the one who needs the support of his family the most, but Yan Lin has a violent and crazy personality, so he should be treated with caution. "
Luo Zhang nodded in agreement and said, "Yan Lin has a chance to enter the Central Plains to compete.
Gongsun Zan was in a bad situation. The State of Yan had occupied most of the land of the former Liaodong Protectorate, leaving only half of Youzhou.
As long as the opportunity is right and Yanshan is captured, the journey from Jizhou to Yuzhou and Xuzhou will be smooth.
The Yan cavalry could even march all the way to the north of the Huai River and conquer the Central Plains. They should not be underestimated.
Now let’s take a look at the King of Zhongxia.”
Luo Zhang waved his hand and the information about the King of Zhongxia appeared in the history books, and after the history books came the books of people.
A figure wearing a Buddhist robe appeared above the book. Above his head was a Taoist Tai Chi diagram with yin and yang colors rotating. In his left hand was a book, which was a collection of Buddhist, Taoist, and deity figures from all dynasties. In his right hand was a sharp sword covered in blood.
[Li Chang has a changeable personality, is good at both military and political affairs, and has a strong sense of kingly way. However, he worships Buddhism and Taoism, likes ghosts and gods, and likes extravagance and vanity.]
Both military and political!
The human book gave a very high evaluation of the King of Zhongxia's abilities, but subsequently gave a very low evaluation of his character.
Seeing this, Luo Zhang shook his head and said, "Among the two kings in the Western Regions, the King of Western Xia must first defeat the King of Central Xia before he is qualified to fight for the Central Plains.
The King of Zhongxia must first enter Liangzhou and even capture Guanzhong before he has a chance to participate in the fight for the world.
This is the congenital deficiency of the King of Zhongxia.
Coupled with his character flaws, it seems that the Western Regions can be directly excluded from the ownership of the world."
Luo Shu thought: "That's right, but the situation in the world is so complicated that it affects the whole body.
In the past, the Qin State was able to move eastward because it had been developing the west for a hundred years and had either wiped out or subdued the barbarians, so it had no worries.
However, Ma Teng and Han Sui did not have such conditions.
Any move of Li Chang will attract the attention of Liangzhou and Guanzhong. Ma Teng and Han Sui will be controlled by him, and a large number of troops will be tied up. This will be an opportunity for the princes of the Central Plains to attack Ma Teng and Han Sui.
Moreover, Li Chang may not be without opportunities. If he can directly kill his way into the grassland from the Western Regions, and then go south from the grassland, then from Bingzhou to Youzhou, they will all be battlefields for him to gallop on.
Besides, Ma Teng and Han Sui..."
Luo Shu frowned slightly. He and Ma Han had only been in contact for too short a time, so he really couldn't judge their personalities accurately.
Knowing people is a profound science. Just like Yuan Shao today, anyone who sees him thinks he is an invincible hero. Who would have thought that he would make mistakes again and again?
Luo Zhang put away the Qingshi and reflected the princes of the Central Plains. There was no need for this magical artifact, Qingshi. The information of Ma Teng and Han Sui soon appeared on the book.
The two men's images are almost the same, both of them look like warriors holding swords in their hands, and the overall color tone tends to be dark red, as if they had walked out of endless killing.
This background picture is very consistent with Luo Zhang and Luo Shu’s stereotype of Xiliang generals.
[Ma Teng is cunning and changeable, often suspicious and short-sighted.]
【Han Sui is very intelligent and suspicious, with deep thoughts. 】
Ma Teng and Han Sui naturally have their strengths, but Ren Shu obviously knew what Luo Zhang and Luo Shu wanted to know, so he directly gave them the most crucial information.
suspicious!
Changeable!
Cao Cao also possesses these two personality traits. It is quite normal for a king to be suspicious.
However, this personality trait naturally makes one resistant to counter-espionage and alienation tactics.
The same strategy of sowing discord basically doesn't work on Liu Bei, but it is likely to be useful on Cao Cao.
Luo Shu analyzed: "Since Ma Teng and Han Sui have such personalities, they will fall out sooner or later.
If other princes entered Guanzhong and Liangzhou at this time, the two would most likely lose their foundation, and the King of Zhongxia might not be without a chance. "
After he finished speaking, he found that his father did not speak, but was thinking about something, so he waited quietly.
Luo Zhang thought for a while and then said slowly: “Now all the princes in the world are listed in the Book of Humans.
I have never seen a monarch who can stir up the world with his personal ability. These princes are not much different. But I was just thinking that most of these evaluations of the monarchs contain the word "violent", which is not a good thing.
What can Luo do in this situation?
Now the grassland is still in a state of exhaustion, so the Xia people do not need to worry about the Hu people moving south. As for the Shanyue barbarians, they pose no threat.
If the family can restrain the power of the princes in the world to fight for supremacy, this must be the greatest merit. "
Luo Shu shuddered when he heard this, and said directly after just one thought: "Father, this is impossible.
Even the Luo State during the Bang Zhou period couldn't do it, let alone the current families.
Although we successfully attacked and killed Li Jue and Guo Si, the power of the great princes in the world is too strong for our family to contend with. In the final analysis, we have no one."
Luo Zhang didn't think so. He thought about it seriously and said, "It is impossible to stop the war, but it is possible to draw a line for the chaotic world.
No matter how cruel the battlefield is, that is what happens on the battlefield, but when the war is over, civilians should not be involved.
This is a good thing to win the support of the people. Except for those who are naturally bloodthirsty, even the princes who do not care about human life will not stop it. There is no need for the family to fight hard.
As for people who are naturally bloodthirsty, we haven’t seen many in the past 1,300 years. Even Dong Zhuo and his people can’t be considered bloodthirsty.”
Hearing that his father was not going to intervene in the war between the princes, Luo Shu understood what his father wanted to do and asked directly: "Father, are you going to make those unspoken rules that were once agreed upon into specific rules for the princes of the world to abide by?"
Luo Zhang nodded. Luo Shu thought about it and felt that it was quite feasible, so he asked excitedly, "What if someone doesn't want to join?"
Luo Zhang's eyes flashed with a cold light and he said, "This is entirely voluntary, but if you are unwilling to join, and commit a serious mistake, the whole world will attack you."
Luo Shu swept away his previous worries, stood up and said, "Father, I will go find Mr. Wenhe. He has great wisdom and will definitely be able to choose the most suitable path for the family."
After the trip to Guanzhong and considering the previous evaluations of Jia Xu in books, in the eyes of Luo Zhang and Luo Shu, he was no less than any strategist in history.
Moreover, in the view of Luo Zhang and Luo Shu, Jia Xu at least never took the initiative to harm others in order to achieve any purpose. Jia Xu's character only wanted to protect himself, which was better than most people.
When Luo Shu came to look for Jia Xu, he was lying leisurely in the house, with a pot of tea boiling on the boiler, a book in his hands, and a comfortable expression on his face.
In this chaotic world, there is still such a leisurely and safe life. Jia Xu just feels so happy.
Seeing Luo Shu coming, Jia Xu suddenly sat up, holding a feather fan in his hand, clasped his fists and bowed, saying: "Xu greets the young master."
After exchanging greetings, Luo Shu and Jia Xu hurriedly took him to meet Luo Zhang.
Luo Zhang first told Jia Xu about the personality traits of the princes. Upon hearing this, Jia Xu involuntarily covered the lower half of his face with the feather fan.
Here we come!
Living in Luo's family, the unreasonable feeling that I often encounter comes back.
Luo Zhang and Luo Shu were not very shy about Jia Xu.
Although Jia Xu had not seen it with his own eyes, a man as smart as he was could still vaguely feel the magical power of the Luo family.
After listening to the personalities of the princes, Jia Xu said directly: "My Lord, if these personalities are true, then I think the fate of the world lies in them.
If Xiang Yu of the past had been judged in this way, he would probably not even have the potential to be a ruler. However, if he had not met the gifted Emperor Gao, Xiang Yu would have really established the Chu Dynasty.
There are two key factors that determine the strength of a force: the lord and the foundation.
If the foundations are not much different, the victory or defeat will be determined by the lord's ability. If the lords are not much different, the victory or defeat will be determined by the depth of their foundation.
Among these princes, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, the Lord of Yan, and the King of Zhongxia were rated higher. But in Xu's opinion, unless the Luo family was willing to assist the Lord of Yan and the King of Zhongxia, these two would have no chance.
Yuan, Cao and Liu are the world's top heroes, and their foundations are also unrivaled. The future lies in these three people.
Today, all the major families in the world have begun to place bets on various aspects, and the Luo family should also make preparations early.
Liu Bei has Ying Hou with him, so only Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are left.
Yuan Shao had contacted the Luo family many times and showed great goodwill towards them. Now all they lacked was an opportunity for both sides to get along well.
Cao Cao's situation is the most complicated. He took back the emperor of the Han Dynasty. He is not willing to be inferior to others. There will definitely be conflicts in the future. If Luo's son gets involved, he needs to think carefully. "
The current situation is quite different from that at the end of the Qin Dynasty. The Luo family had just experienced destruction, and their sons and daughters traveled on their own. They had made friends with Emperor Gao since they were humble.
But nowadays, most of the young people live in Zhaocheng, and it is rare for outsiders to see them.
When these princes started the rebellion, the family members did not participate, and now it is very difficult for them to get a share of the pie.
Jia Xu's analysis was very logical. Luo Zhang and Luo Shu looked at each other and then told each other what they had discussed.
Jia Xu just stood there in a daze, forgetting even to wave his feather fan. He looked at Luo Zhang and Luo Shu, and seeing the look in their eyes he knew that they were serious.
Jia Xu did not say anything, but said: "My Lord, I once heard a saying that if a law can bring good results, but there is no power to enforce it, it is best not to allow it to appear.
If it doesn't appear, it will never be trampled upon.
If it appears and is trampled upon without being punished, morality will slide into a deeper abyss.
Just like killing the monarch, it is nothing to those barbarians who eat raw meat and drink blood.
However, the Xia states had their own rituals established by their kings, so regicide became an unforgivable sin.
If you want to do something and you don’t have the means to punish it, it’s better not to do it.”
Jia Xu rarely looked so serious. He really felt that this matter was too difficult and there would probably be a large number of unnecessary sacrifices.
Luo Zhang and Luo Shu looked at each other after hearing this, and then burst into laughter.
Luo Shu laughed out loud and said, "Mr. Wenhe, you said that the Luo family has always existed in the world in such a high-profile manner for 1,300 years.
The most declining period was when the Luo State was conquered by Qin Shi Huang.
But when the Qin Dynasty fell, the Luo family not only survived, but became even more powerful during the Han Dynasty.
What is the most fundamental basis?"
Before Jia Xu could answer, Luo Zhang and Luo Shu said in unison: "The spirit of the Su King is in heaven, granting great light to our descendants!"
Luo Zhang smiled and said, "The Luo family has always been worried about not being able to satisfy our ancestor, King Su, and worrying about bringing disgrace to our ancestor, King Su. As for our sacrifices, they are nothing. King Su is with us."
Luo Zhang and Luo Shu directly revealed their cards in front of Jia Xu, how could Jia Xu not understand?
There were endless waves of turmoil in his eyes, but he soon calmed down and bowed and asked, "Grand Duke, if that's the case, Xu understands.
Please tell me what you want to do. I need to think about it."
Luo Zhang pondered for a moment and told Jia Xu some things he had just thought of. Jia Xu took note of them silently and then thought in his mind what the probability was that these things would be accepted.
Fortunately, Luo Zhang is not a reckless man. He has considered many things, and these things are relatively realistic.
As Jia Xu listened, he gradually felt relieved. If that was the case, then there was a great chance of success.
After Luo Zhang finished speaking, Jia Xubai bowed and said, "My Lord, the most troublesome thing about what you just said is the scope of application. As long as the princes do not feel constrained, it will not be difficult to implement it successfully."
Luo Zhang bowed and said, "Thank you, Mr. Wenhe. Luo Shu and Mr. Wenhe will discuss this together. When the rules here are finished, we will invite all the princes in the world to the alliance."
