Chapter 2 Lu Cao Moke dizhimeng Zheng zhenggong, a powerful force to guide Xinyi

The northern apricot League did not immediately drop the curtain after it passed the oath. The alliance will go up and say to the princes, "Lu, Wei, Zheng, CaO, and other countries are in violation of the fate of the son of heaven. If they do not come to the meeting, they should be criticized." Qi zhenggong said to everyone, "I hope the troops and vehicles are insufficient to act together ." Chen, Cai, and Jun all agreed to work together. Only song xiaogong said nothing. In fact, Qi zhenggong didn't really want to deal with Lu, Wei, Zheng, and CaO at this time. Although Qi is now powerful, however, it is not strong enough to deal with the four major powers of Lu, Wei, Zheng and CaO at the same time. Moreover, since he has determined a strategy like peaceful rise, he would not choose such a method to take the initiative to use troops to establish a dominant position. He and Guan zhongstaged a "Jun Chen dual Spring" only to test the loyalty of alignment countries. Song zhengong lacks political wisdom, as he has in the history of the Song Dynasty. He does not have the overall situation and cannot fully consider the political interests of the Song Dynasty. He only has his own small abacus in his mind and is unwilling to come to the alliance, now, we have to fight for troops. Naturally, we are not happy with 10 thousand troops.
On the evening of that day, Song zhenggong returned to the mansion to rest, and said to Dai shupi, the accompanied song doctor, "Qi Hou, he is an arrogant man. If he does not talk about the primary and secondary roles, he wants to dispatch troops from all countries. In the future, our country will be exhausted !" Shu PI said: "The princes have half of the obedience and resistance to Qi, And the Qi has not yet had the largest power. If Lu Zheng and his two countries are conquered, Qi's Overlord will become. Qi's dominance is not the blessing of song. In the four countries that attended the event, we joined the greater Song dynasty. If we did not launch troops, the other three countries would also be split. In addition, we only came here to get the fate of the son of heaven to consolidate the status of the master and the public. Now we have completed the task and there is no need to stay. It is better to leave now ." Song zhenggong did not consider the political consequences of this practice. He listened to his suggestion and led the crowd to board the car and return to Beijing apricot.
Qi zhenggong was very angry when he heard that song zhenggong left Qi despite diplomatic etiquette and unexpectedly left QI without a sound. This meeting was originally held by Song zhenggong for the purpose of the issue. Now song zhenggong unexpectedly left without permission, this made him feel very shameless, and he wanted to send someone to chase song gong back. Guan Zhong said, "This is not the most important thing. You can wait for the event to come and fight for it ." Qi zhenggong asked Him, "Is there anything more urgent than this ?" Guan Zhong said: "Lu Guo, Song Yuan and Lu Wei, is also the family of the Royal Family. Lu guodu is not in the eyes of the alliance. How can song be convinced? Therefore, the most urgent thing is to conquer the country, so that the countries can obey our country ."
Qi zhenggong thinks that it is quite reasonable. Among the countries that have not yet attended the conference, Lu is the most important. If Lu is downgraded, you do not have to worry that other countries will betray Qi, as a result, I no longer paid attention to Song Gong's affairs. I was given a generous gift to Chen, Cai, and Chen Guojun from the Alliance. I would like to thank them for coming to Beijing Apricot for their support, then, instead of connecting the Three Kingdoms, they sent them one by one to leave the Qi country, and then the class teacher went back to the corner to consider how to deal with the luguo issue.
Qi and Lu, as a neighboring power country, were in the same position in the western Week and the early spring and autumn, with a considerable population and area, and considerable strength. Although they were connected to each other, however, because of the competition for economic and political interests, there will inevitably be some friction and battles between the two countries, and the small countries around the two countries are also selected by their respective sides, forming two collection countries, not to mention that before Qi Gong came to power, the two countries had already fought countless times. Just a few years after Qi Gong came to power, there were already several wars between the two powers, for example, the War of the dry hours, the battle of the long spoon, and the battle of the Qi Song and the Lu, the latter two battles are all at the end of the defeat of the Qi,
Qi did not take advantage of the previous confrontation with Lu Guo, so it is obviously not a good solution to directly seek troops to punish Lu Guo, at this time, Guan Zhong suggested that Qi Gong eliminate the country of the luguo group first. This country is a small country in the northeast of jishui, and has always been a vassal of the country of Lu. backed by the mountains of the country of Lu, Qi has never respected QI. Qi also invited Qi to attend the Beijing apricot summit, however, the country did not participate in the event according to the meaning of Lu. This country is small and weak, and there is only one city in the country. Guan Zhong suggested that the Communist Party of China take over the country and teach the country a lesson. Then he contacted Mrs. Lu and asked her to promote the Union of Qilu, we will use peaceful means to deal with the state of Lu and drag the state of Lu to the allies of the State of Qi. After resolving the state of Lu, we will be able to do our best to deal with the state of song.
Qi zhenggong was very appreciative of Guan zhong's proposal. In June 681 BC, Qi zhenggong personally led Qi Jun to surround this poor country, just three months after the Beijing apricot league. This small country is really too small, even less than a doctor of Qi's food, but the monarch is more arrogant, rather unyielding, refused to surrender to Qi Gong, but after all, the strength is limited, after the powerful Qi Army completes the formation, a charge will be taken down and the country will be destroyed. The State of Qi ordered that the country be merged into the territory of Qi, and the army of Qi did not mean to withdraw. Instead, it was stationed on the edge of Ji Shui, directly threatening the security of Lu on the other side of Ji Shui.
Qi zhenggong's strategy of killing chickens and monkeys really played a role. Although Lu Zhuanggong once defeated Qi zhenggong's army, it was three years ago, the national strength and military power of Qi have both developed rapidly. As a close neighbor of Qi, Lu Zhuanggong is clear about this. Although he is not willing to join the northern apricot League led by Qi, he understands that, today, Lu is unable to compete with Qi. In desperation, he had to ask the Minister.
Lu Zhuanggong's half-brother, Lu qingfu, was an impatient man. He stood up and said, "the Qi army once invaded our country twice, but they both ended in defeat, chen is willing to take troops on the banks of jishui to attack Qi's invasion." At this moment, Dr. Shi said, "No, no, it is no best strategy to meet each other ."
Lu Zhuanggong asked Shi bodao, "Why? Do you have any good Countermeasures ?" Shi Bo said, "The minister has said in the past: Guan Yiwu is a wonderful talent in the world. Over the past few years, Qi Zhengguo has been dominated by military restraint. This is the first place. The Beijing apricot summit will be named in the name of an honorable king, our country has not gone against the rules, and we have lost money. This is the second aspect; killing and correcting the mistakes, the primary and public sectors are active in Qi, Wang Ji is waiting to marry, and the primary and public sectors are working hard, if you lose the credit of the past and settle your enemies in the future, this is the third aspect. As a Minister, it is better for China to seek help from Qi Hou and ask for help. The qi can leave without war ." General Cao mo also said, "I agree with this opinion ."
Lu Zhuanggong said this to the Ministers, so he ordered the consolidation of national defense and sent people to the Qi State, so that he could not go to the Beijing apricot Summit and request an alliance with the Qi State. That is to say, Lu is willing to negotiate with Qi and join the Qi camp under appropriate conditions. Qi zhenggong met with Lu Zhuanggong and was naturally very happy. As a result, the diplomatic staff of both sides quickly agreed that the two countries would hold a summit of heads of State in kedi (northeast yanggu County, Shandong Province) of the same country. Because kedi is the territory of Qi, Lu's ambassador is a smart person Worried that Qi suddenly changed his face during the summit, so he proposed, "This is a peace meeting, and Lu is a small country, of course, there are no weapons. If the two sides carry weapons, there will be misunderstandings in the outside world. Therefore, no weapons should be carried in this meeting." Qi zhenggong wanted to ke di as his own territory, so he agreed happily and the two sides agreed to join the alliance in the winter.
Lu Zhuanggong was ready to go to kedi. He asked the ministers, "who can accompany the widowed man to Qi ." When CaO Mo raised his hand to sign up, Lu Zhuanggong asked him: "You have been defeated by Qi three times. Will you not be afraid to laugh at you when I accompanied you to QI this time ?" Cao Mo replied: "It was because that failure that made me shame that I wanted to go. I have a solution to all the shame in front of the snow ." Lu Zhuanggong said, "when I went to the Chinese border to sum up, it would have been a failure if you followed me. It would be worse if you were born, I will hear from you later." Cao Mo said to Lu Zhuanggong, "The minister already has an arrangement ,"
Lu Zhuanggong was puzzled. "How should we be ashamed ?" Cao Mo said, "The Lord is dealing with Qi Hou, while I am dealing with Qi Chen. We are armed with weapons. I am ashamed to take advantage of this opportunity ." Lu Zhuanggong understood Cao Mo's meaning, so Jun Chen and his men did not follow Qilu's prior agreement on not carrying weapons and secretly carried the Li Jian with them to go to kedi. (The record of this section shows the 13-year old Zhuanggong of the "Biography of Public goat)
Here, I would like to add that some text works often mention Cao Yu, who went to kedi with Lu Zhuanggong. In fact, this is a mistake. I have mentioned the relationship between the two people in the previous article, remind me here.
Qi zhenggong also set out to go to kedi from the presence of the country. before his departure, he thought of the prior agreement with Lu. He ordered all followers to carry no weapons. Guan Zhong raised an objection on one side. In fact, from the very beginning, he opposed Qi zhenggong's alliance with Lu Zhuanggong on such a premise. According to his ideas, qi zhenggong's Overlord should be based on the Peaceful Rise of the people to serve the people. Although, if necessary, he can warn some large countries that do not want to cooperate with the country by hitting some small countries, however, at present, Lu's situation is obviously forced to form an alliance with Qi. He Helped Qi Gong to analyze the situation. "Lu Hou is a forced force on this alliance, and he is not really willing to do so, now many princes hate the lord, and on this premise, they force the country to form an alliance with our country. The princes will add their names to the Lord, and what will happen in the future will make small countries more stubborn, large countries have organizations early, which is not good for our country. Therefore, it is better to withdraw from this alliance. We can consider other measures to truly make Lu take care of itself." Qi's views on fair day are very important to Guan Zhong, but this time, his acute character once again shows that Lu is willing to come to the Alliance, no matter whether Lu Zhuanggong is willing or unwilling, he insisted on going to kedi. Guan Zhongjian was unable to persuade him to withdraw from the Alliance, so he ordered his followers to bring weapons. "Lu Hou cannot bring no weapons. Cao Mo is strong and vicious, i'm afraid it's not just about the Covenant to solve the problem." (The record of this section can be seen in) in the end, Qi Gong still did not adopt the advice of Guan Zhong, so he arrived at ke di with an usually unarmed follower.
In the winter of 681 BC, the two countries officially joined the kadiu alliance. On this day, on top of the Alliance altar specially built by Qi, Qi's two countries held four-person talks with one Jun and one minister respectively. Qi's side was Qi Gong and Guan Zhong, lu Guo's side is Lu Zhuanggong and CaO Mo. Everything was normal at the beginning. when the two sides discussed how to deal with the many issues after the alliance, Lu Zhuanggong and CaO Mo were right-eyed, cao Mo began to act. He drew the Hidden sword from his arms and rushed to the front of Qi Gong. He pointed the sword to Qi Gong and said, "the border of the country of Lu is only fifty miles away from the country, sooner or later, it would be better to stay together with you today!" Qi zhenggong expected that Cao Mo would come here, and he was in a panic for a moment. While Guan Zhong immediately went forward and wanted the savior, but he was blocked by Cao Mo's sword. Guan Zhong asked Cao Mo, "What are you doing, doctor ?" Cao Modao said, "Lu has suffered successive aggression from Qi and the country will perish as soon as possible. I will not sit down and ignore it ." Guan Zhong asked, "What do you want to do ?" Cao Modao, "Qi is a strong, weak, occupying the place of wenyang. Please return it to our country today ." "Well, few people promise you ." Qi zhenggong readily agreed, Cao Mo was afraid of Qi zhenggong's regret, until he saw that he had written the return to the Covenant, after Qi zhenggong signed the word, cao Mo put the signature, and he returned to his position.
This is an unexpected scene. After this incident, the prince became a father and other ministers were very angry and demanded that Lu Zhuanggong and CaO mo be arrested in succession, so that Xue Guojun would be humiliated on the Alliance's platform, but Qi zhenggong has stopped everyone. Qi zhenggong said, "The widowed man has promised Cao Mo in public, so he has to keep his integrity. The man still has to lose his trust. What's more, he is the king of a country?" This stabilized everyone's mood. Then, Qi zhenggong ordered a banquet, accompanied Lu Zhuanggong for a drink, and sent Lu Zhuanggong to return to China. Afterwards, qi zhenggong did not try to retaliate against Lu Guo, but actually returned the land of wenyang to Lu according to the agreement. Qi zhenggong seems to have suffered a big loss because he has no weapons, cao Mo helped Lu to regain the vast land in wenyang (not to mention whether Cao Mo's behavior was reckless, with the power of one person, you dare to face the powerful Qi Guojun, who wants to return to a large land for the country. The future generations say Cao Mo is the ancestor of the chivalrous guest, and there is indeed some truth). However, qi zhenggong is the beneficiary of this incident.
Wenyang is the land that Qi snatched from Lu. Now, according to the agreement, the land is returned to Lu. There is no substantial loss to Qi, on the contrary, it sent a special gift to the Alliance camp headed by the Chinese Communist Party of China (Lu), which relieved Lu's hatred of alignment to some extent, what's more, it sets up an example for Qi to trust people in the world, and all countries admire Qi's actions, this virtually laid a good public opinion foundation for QI zhenggong's true hegemony. Therefore, later Shi's comments said, "the secret belongs to the world and begins with ke zhimeng." (For details, refer to "biography of the Goat" Zhuang gong for 13 years)
The Beijing apricot Summit opened the first step of Qi zhenggong's substantial hegemony, while Cao Mo's reckless actions of Qilu kedimeng Helped Qi zhenggong establish a trustworthy moral image virtually, now we can see that the external conditions of the United States are becoming more and more favorable. The rise strategy of the great powers of the Qi nation that we are going to analyze today should have some enlightening significance for us today. The rise of the Qi nation is a peaceful rising strategy, we can divide Qi Gong's perfect rise plan into three stages:
In the first phase, we will carry out domestic reforms, develop the domestic economy, and strengthen the country's economic and military strength.
In the second stage, we will shape the international influence and establish our own new international order. In fact, peaceful rise does not mean not to launch war, but to establish military operations on a principle that can be recognized by the majority of countries, at that time, the Qi State was "King of money ".
The third stage uses the discourse power and influence of the language acquisition in the previous stage to serve the national interests of the country to the greatest extent.
At the time of writing the work, Qi zhenggong has completed the first stage of work and is starting the second stage of work. Beijing apricot will be the beginning, and Ke dimeng will be the promotion, lu is one of the great Powers in the Spring and Autumn dynasties. Even when he joined the QI National camp, Qi's overlord industry would seem to have been built. But what is the truth?
