He cannot obtain military merits like others.

He only knows how to study and ask him to go to battle and kill the enemy. He really doesn't have the courage and wants to give advice, but he doesn't have the intelligence. But if he can't get enough military merits here, even if he has more wealth, he will be consumed after three generations, and even three generations cannot be saved.

In fact, the central leadership and central protection system under Cao Cao's command is actually the same military merit system. However, Cao Cao did not do it as thoroughly as Fei Qian, and Cao Cao's military merit system has too many of his own people.

However, now, the military meritorious class under Fei Qian is more extensive than that under Cao Cao, which makes Fei Qian have more hidden dangers at present and fewer hidden dangers in the future than Cao Cao.

In the entire political system that is dominated by military merit, a large number of interest classes will be born in every victory of the war, which is the so-called military meritorious landlords. These military meritorious landlords will have a strong impact on the manor landlords formed in the three or four hundred years of the Han Dynasty. In the face of such an impact, the moat originally built by scriptures and prophecies in Shandong can be said to be basically useless.

Pei Jun’s meaning is very clear. Cao Cao does not need to completely defeat Fei Qian, he only needs to interrupt Fei Qian’s continuous victory trend...

Cao Cao was silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "Can Fengxian know about the affairs of Shanshan Kingdom?"

Pei Jun was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "I know. However, the land of the Western Regions is not a good place. Gold and silver are also obtained for a while, so can it be obtained every year? Therefore, it is impossible to fight for a long time..."

Pei Jun is not optimistic about Fei Qian because of this.

Pei Jun felt that Fei Qian had no way out now and was forced to start a war in the Western Regions. Although he had conquered the Shanshan Kingdom, it was like drinking poison and could not last long. Once the war stopped, the military and meritorious landlords had a strong need to start a war. If you don’t let them fight, they would have to rebel. Fei Qian either wanted to suppress the princes like Liu Bang in the early Han Dynasty, or they would be killed in the rebellion.

Pei Jun thinks that Lu Fengxian is the best proof...

Even though the official claims that Fei Qian did not kill Lu Bu, Pei Jun did not believe it.

Once the wars are frequent, a considerable number of military landlords will face the situation where their land may not be able to inherit. They will not be happy. Even if Fei Qian reforms again, saying that future land inheritance does not require military merit, it will not work. Not to mention how many of the military landlords who have died in battle in order to inherit their titles before will cause trouble. Even for the rest of ordinary people, if there is no new land and the original land has been divided by the former military landlords, then wouldn’t there be hope? They will never have a piece of land of their own in the future?

These factors determine that Fei Qian cannot stop the pace of war, must continue to fight, constantly plunder new land, and enfeoff new landlords.

Then there was a fight against the desert in the north, arriving in Jiaozhi in the south, and arriving in the west.

There is no way, everyone knows that those bad things are boring, but they can't beat them...

I have to say that Pei Jun’s logical chain still makes some sense.

But Cao Cao just nodded slightly and did not look happy because of this.

Cao Cao knew that the landlords of the Shandong political group were indeed different from the system of Fei Qian, and did not have as strong desire to attack as Fei Qian's subordinates. It can even be said to be completely opposite. He had no idea of ​​expedition to the outside world, and even wanted to directly cut off Xiliang and other frontiers and cut off Yong'an.

So if Cao Cao also adopted the so-called "rest and recuperate" strategy as Pei Jun said, that is, to pull up with these manor landlords, compromise with the obedient landlords, and eliminate the landlords, and then fill in their own people after they are eliminated, and try to be strong and weak branches. It seems to be a good strategy, but in fact, Cao Cao knew in his heart that he had no time anymore.

At the moment of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the manor landlord class in Shandong had evolved towards the separatist rule of the powerful, and the process was irreversible.

This kind of manor economy with the core of the powerful has been formed in Shandong. The fort manors of each wealthy family are independent small kingdoms, and the internal economy can be self-circulated. Each wealthy family has its own family soldiers. As long as Cao Cao relaxes, the local area will gradually form a situation of actual separatist rule by big and small tyrants. In the end, the rest policy will be that all the princes and counties will become kings, and Cao Cao can only stay in his acre of three-point land...

Just like the King of Zhou back then.

Cao Cao looked at Pei Jun, his eyes slightly cold.

If Cao Cao had waited and had some hope and patience before Fei Qian's gunpowder appeared, but when he found that Fei Qian's gunpowder was used more and more, the craftsmen's skills were getting better and better, and the economy was getting stronger, Cao Cao understood that he had reached a dead end.

If you wait any longer, you will be dead.

Although the landlords and powerful people in Shandong may not die, Cao Cao will definitely not have any good endings...

Cao Cao smiled on his face and seemed to nod his head slightly, but in fact, his evaluation of Pei Jun has been declining again and again. "What Fengxian said is good...is not bad...haha, but what else is there to give me some advice?"
