Wang Mi, the one with the best family background, was a prefect in his grandfather's generation, and his father was unknown. By his generation, he was no different from a country tycoon.

Shi Le, who came from the poorest family, was beaten down to eighteen horses, but he still seized the opportunity, pulled Liu Yuan's tiger skin, and persuaded the Jie people who were not in the same tribe before to join him with a few words, and suffered repeated defeats.

Shao Xun was just a serf soldier, but he could also seize the opportunity and soar into the sky.

The strength of these people in just a few years has exceeded the accumulation of aristocratic families over a hundred years, which makes people sigh.

Maybe times have really changed.

Although the wealthy families are well-dressed and well-off, and have high-ranking officials and generous salaries, these are also a cage that tightly binds their hands and feet, making them dull and clumsy. When the great era comes, they will do nothing and be quickly surpassed by others.

But what’s the use of understanding it?

Can it be changed? It seems not possible.

Xun Zhen even pessimistically guessed that even at the critical moment of life and death, they would not be able to make any fundamental changes.

In the end, relying on the emerging rulers and continuing to maintain certain privileges and status is the best outcome.

It sucks!

On February 29, Shao Xun ended his show of force in Yingyin and sent his troops to Xuchang. He gathered the Yingchuan gentry here to discuss strategies for protecting Sangzi.

Xun Zhen also came over.

This is a political attitude, and the signal is very clear.

In addition, the news that Xunxian, the Marquis of Yingyangting, had "died of a sudden illness" spread quickly, and everyone knew what to do.

But this is not a bad thing.

When Wang Mi came over, there were more than 100,000 people in attendance, and the momentum was extremely huge.

To be honest, if the Yingchuan nobles can unite, each family will not hide their own interests, contribute their most capable elite troops, pay generous rewards, replenish their equipment, money and food, form a coalition army, and fight Wang Mi to the death. Who will win?

Unknown.

But can they do this? Even dogs don’t believe it!

And since we can't unite and protect our own safety, we can only rely on outsiders.

The conference in Xuchang is a conference of unity and victory...

Shao Xun not only collected a lot of money and food, but also "borrowed" a total of 300 elite soldiers from various noble families and sent them back to Yangcheng County to build a defense force.

Three hundred people, if we divide it among everyone, each family will only have a few dozen people. It's a bit painful, but it's still acceptable.

I wonder if they have ever heard the story of boiling a frog in warm water.

In Shao Xun's view, the unorganized and scattered aristocratic families are just cash machines.

Don't hurt them all at once, otherwise they will resist.

Just play slowly...
