To borrow a sentence from the "Nine Pin Sesame Officials": "Adulterous ministers want adultery, and loyal subjects want to rape." The loyalists can't even protect themselves, so how can they fight with the traitors? "The Biography of Li Yan in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms": Yan and Zhuge Liang were entrusted with the edict to assist the young lord. According to Liu Bei's will, 2 people were listed side by side as auxiliary ministers.
After thinking about it for a while, let them both come over
First, military power equals great power?
From the perspective of the distinction between work contents, Li Yan is even more in charge of the national military, "taking Strict as the central capital protection, unifying the internal and external military, and staying in yong'an." Thinking of Ao Bai, who also holds the power of the world's soldiers and horses, and the young Kangxi who often bullied him to the point of not wanting it, naturally he could not underestimate Li Yan's status.
However, combined with the "Biography of Zhuge Liang", Liu Bei's arrangement is somewhat peculiar. "Biography of the First Lord": The first lord is sick, entrusted to Yu Xiangliang, and Shang Shu makes Li Yan a deputy. Probably: Li Yan was in charge of the national military as Zhuge Liang's deputy, and the seat of government was in Yong'an (the border between Wu and Shu).
It's all important, but you're the only one
A deputy post is also arranged in the frontier, and the central organs and the emperor are still in Chengdu, so how can we manage the national military? Some people say that Aobai is not also on the border? Is it better to master the army away from the center? It is also true, but from the beginning to the end, the military army and soldiers have nothing to do with Li Yan.
For example, Zhuge Liang led a large army to pacify Nanzhong, and he did not report any military to Li Yan. Later, when the troops were sent to the Northern Expedition and the unified troops were stationed in Hanzhong, they regarded this "Zhongdu Protector" as nothing. In addition, Li Yan was named "Grand Marshal of the Terracotta Army", and during the Northern Expedition, his responsibility was only to carry grain and grass.
I brought my own people and horses to Yunnan for a trip
Properly done is the right thing to do, not doing a good job is a serious sin of the work, thankless! It is estimated that I, in the face of such a contrast, will not complain less than Li Yan. But Li Yan was Li Yan after all, and although he had never complained, the secret struggle for power and the throne had never stopped.
Second, the ins and outs of the matter
1. After the Northern Expedition, Zhuge Liang transferred Li Yan from the border of Yong'an to the inland city of Jiangzhou. This was not something Kong Ming wanted to separate the generals, because the successor Governor of Yong'an, Chen Zhi, was still under The jurisdiction of Li Yan. The transfer of Li Yan to Jiangzhou, which is closer to Chengdu, is in the hope that he will better grasp the collection and dispatch. But Li Yan, because he was closer to the capital, did not want to waste his expanded influence.
A set of "additional Bazhou" plans was set aside. According to the administrative divisions of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there are a total of 13 prefectures in the world. The Shu Han territory was small, accounting for only 1 state. At this time, Zhuge Liang, the chancellor, also concurrently served as the Assassin of Yizhou. Li Yan proposed to list more than 1 prefecture and divide several counties in the east in order to also want to get a thorn in shi dangdang and enhance the influence of the same assistant minister and the opening of the government.
Hmmm, I just don't move
Naturally, he was rejected by Zhuge Liang. Think about the Battle of Hanzhong at that time, Zhuge Liang got rid of the mayor of the capital of Fazheng, and Fazheng charged forward, and there was nothing unhappy about it. At this time, the Shu Han bureaucrats really drifted away from their original intentions of not counting the size of their official positions for the sake of their ideals and beliefs when their ancestors were alive.
2, one plan does not succeed, and two plans are born. He wrote to Zhuge Liang and said: You should add nine tins and become king. At that time, the title of king was the standard for usurpation. Li Yan's statement is that Zhuge Liang has done a great job. Think about Cao Cao, Cao Pi and Sima Zhao, which credit is small? What is the meaning of Li Yan's letter?
My credit is not small
Professor Xiamen University said that this was a temptation, a test of the heart. I think there is another layer of meaning, called the rising tide. Kong Ming eats meat, and Li Yan can also drink soup. As a result, Zhuge Liang categorically refused, replying: First of all, we do things for the sake of ideals and beliefs. "One heart for the country, how to spend time in the body".
Secondly, I was originally a village man, and I was looked up to by the emperor, and at this time, I was already very content under one person. Finally, now that the great cause has not been accomplished, if we can really return to the old capital in the future, you and I can add ten tin, let alone nine tin. Li Yan's calculations still failed.
3. Starting from Cao Zhen's fa shu, in order to enhance Li Yan's role, Zhuge Liang transferred him to Hanzhong and appointed him as a general and "staying in the government". After that, in order to continue to grasp the logistical support, Li Yan was permanently stationed in Hanzhong, and his son Li Feng went to Jiangzhou to take over. However, when Zhuge Liang once again went on the Northern Expedition, the contradiction between the 2 people was completely made public.
Kong Ming defeated Sima Yi at Qishan, and "the situation in the line went all the way." However, he received a letter from Li Yan: "Because of the heavy rain in the sky, it is difficult to receive grain and grass, please withdraw your troops!" In desperation, Zhuge Liang had to be a class teacher. Li Yan wrote another letter: "Huh? How did the prime minister withdraw his troops? Zhuge Liang looked confused.
Not happy for a few days
He also wrote a letter to Liu Chan: "The withdrawal of the army is a strategy to lure the enemy to go deeper." In the face of such a change, Zhuge Liang was naturally very angry, and the consequences were quite serious. After returning to Chengdu, he showed Liu Chan all the letters, and the evidence was as ironclad as a mountain, and Li Yan did not confess himself and ate the consequences. In the end, he was reduced to a commoner.
Third, Li Yan's small abacus
Thinking about today's palace fighting plan, all the officials can't help but feel strange. Such a clumsy technical operation, not to mention Huan Huan and An Lingrong, about touching even the Qi nobles are not as good, right? In fact, although they are also assistant ministers, judging from the appointment and dismissal of cadres over the years and the final results of the treatment, the power of the two people is really a world of difference.
As a deputy, Li Yan wanted to confront the main leader Zhuge Liang, and taking a direct hard step was undoubtedly to hit the stone with a pebble. It can only be done step by step, step by step. Isn't the key to your Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition to send grain? Since I was assigned to do it, I can make a fuss. How? Discount.
First play the pressure to suppress the shock
Judging from Li Yan's considerations, as long as he delayed in specific implementation, he could not only ensure that the Northern Expedition would not be defeated, but also make Zhuge Liang futile. The number of times is more and longer, and naturally it will form the effect of exhausting national strength and officials mourning and resenting the people. When Kong Ming confronted Zhongda, Li Yan did not make a move.
When Zhuge Liang achieved the great victory of Halo City, he saw that there was a major turnaround and immediately wrote a letter to stop it. Such careful thinking is undoubtedly correct from the strategy of 2 handles against 1 handles. As long as Zhuge Liang fails more often, the more voices of doubt within the group will be, and the negative impact of poor military force will become stronger and stronger.
That's not what I meant
After all, an opportunity like a major military victory is often a once-in-a-century opportunity. To let the boss gradually lose control and credibility of the organization, there is no other way. This is called: the movement should be small, the action should be clever, don't think hard, slowly dig the foot of the wall. At the same time, there are fewer handles.
In the real world, even if the gap between the strength of the second and the eldest is really minimal. Taking a direct hard result, in general, will lose faster and worse, unless the boss makes a major mistake. As for why Li Yan is not worried about settling accounts after the autumn, it can only be explained as "self-esteem is too high."
I'm just afraid you're really bad
It is believed that a problem like this can only be called "wrong", not "wrong". Compared with losing Zhuge Liang at a critical moment and forming a long-term negative impact, Zhuge Liang could not do anything to him as a lonely and heavy subject. It's just that the strategy is fine, the problem is that the wrong person is chosen.
Estimating that without much consideration, Zhuge Liang recognized such a trick. Is it difficult for politics 100 to be a random evaluation? In the face of such unstable factors, how can we be soft-hearted and be relegated to the common people in order to get rid of the troubles. This is the truth that a traitor wants to commit adultery, and a loyal minister wants to be even more adulterous.
See who is better
Fourth, 3 questions worth mentioning
1. Zhuge Liang's punishment did not harm Chiyu, and he still reused Li Feng, and under the premise that his ability was no problem, he arranged to take his father's place and continue to serve the country. 2. Let Li Feng write a letter to tell him that although he is degraded, as long as Li Yan does not move chaotically, do not think chaotically. At the time when the state is employing people, it is not impossible for him to make a comeback.
Don't have psychological baggage
3. Only 3 years later, Zhuge Liang died of illness in Wuzhangyuan, and Li Yan had no chance to make a comeback. On the one hand, Liu Chan had been taught to be a man for too long, and judging from the means by which Kong Ming immediately deposed the chancellor and divided his power over Jiang Huan, Fei Yi, and Jiang Wei, although he did not hate his father to death, he still had shadows and resentment towards the powerful ministers.
On the other hand, judging from Zhuge Liang's will, the auxiliary political team with Jiang, Fei, and Jiang as the main body was reorganized, one was responsible for the government, one was responsible for the palace, and the other was responsible for the military, and there was no longer a position for Li Yan. Jiang Feiyi? Ability is strong, not necessarily the original intention of tolerating the overall situation.
