Chen Lin's "Exhortation to the Thief" in the New Three Kingdoms

It is said that a wise monarch seeks danger to control change, and a loyal minister is afraid that it is difficult to establish power. Therefore, there are extraordinary people, and then there are extraordinary things; There are extraordinary things, and then extraordinary achievements are made. Extraordinary things are not what ordinary people can imagine. Once upon a time, the strong Qin Dynasty was weak, and Zhao Gao was in power. He monopolized the power of the court, and his power and fortune were his own. At that time, people threatened him, and no one dared to speak out. Finally, he was defeated by the State of Qin, and his ancestors were burned and destroyed. He has been insulted to this day, which will always be a lesson for the world. At the end of Empress Lu's reign, Lu Chan monopolized the government, concurrently serving as the commander of the two armies at home and the commander of Liang and Zhao at home. He was able to make decisions without authorization, deal with political affairs, and reduce the ban. The lower was bullied and the upper was replaced, and the hearts of the people in the country were cold. Therefore, Jiang Hou Zhu Xu raised an army in anger, wiped out the rebellious and tyrannical people, respected and supported Taizong, so that the king's way flourished, and the light was bright and bright. This is a clear sign of the minister's power. Sikong Cao Cao's grandfather was Zhongchang Shi Teng, who was a demon together with Zuo Wei and Xu Huang. He was greedy and arrogant, hurting the people. His father, Cao Song, begged for food and support. He took advantage of the stolen money to take the throne. He carried gold and jade, transported goods to the door of power, stole the tripod department, and destroyed the important weapons. Cao Cao's eunuchs left behind ugly, originally did not have good moral character, but cunning and sharp, like chaos. The shogunate's Dong Tong was like an eagle in the sky, sweeping away the vicious rebels. He met Dong Zhuo again and again, usurping his official position and ruining the country. So he raised his sword and beat the drum, issued an order to the Eastern Xia Dynasty, recruited heroes, abandoned their shortcomings and appointed them. Therefore, he consulted with Cao Cao and appointed him as a deputy division, saying that he had the talent of eagles and dogs and could be trusted. As a result, he was stupid, frivolous, short-sighted and resourceful, easily defeated, injured and defeated, and lost his master and apprentice many times. The shogunate immediately divided his troops and ordered elite soldiers to repair and supplement them. He asked the emperor to go to Dongjun and concurrently serve as the governor of Yanzhou. He was rewarded with a tiger pattern. I am afraid of the power of the Qin army, hoping to get the reward of a victory. However, Cao Cao was arrogant and domineering, wantonly cruel, cruel and cruel. The former prefect of Jiujiang, Bian Rang, was a talented and outstanding man who was famous all over the world. He spoke bluntly and seriously, and did not flatter others. His head was hung by an owl, and his wife and children were killed by ashes. From then on, the scholar-bureaucrats were indignant, and the people's resentment was even heavier. One man raised his arm, and the whole state was in unison. Therefore, he was defeated by Xu Fang, and his territory was seized by Lu Bu. He wandered eastward and had no place to tread. The shogunate only wanted to strengthen the backbone and weak branches, and did not recruit the traitor's party. Therefore, he raised his flag and armor, swept up the expedition, beat the golden drum, and spread the morale of the people. He saved them from the disaster of death and restored them to the position of Fang Bo. In this way, the shogunate had no kindness to the people of Yanzhou, but had great achievements in Cao Cao. Later, when the emperor returned to the city, the group of bandits invaded and attacked. At that time, Jizhou was in danger of the northern border, and there was no time to leave the situation. Therefore, he sent Xu Xun, who was engaged in Zhonglang, to send Cao Cao to repair the temple in the suburbs and protect the young master. Therefore, Cao Cao let go of his ambition. He arbitrarily coerced the promotion of officials, which should be controlled by the imperial court. He despised and insulted the royal family and violated the law and discipline. He sat in charge of the three departments and monopolized the government. The title and reward were in his heart, and the killing was in his mouth. He loved the five clans and hated the three clans. Those who talked in groups were killed in public, and those who talked in private were killed in secret. All officials were silent and looked at each other on the road. Shang Shu was the secretary of the court meeting, and the public officials were appointed as officials. The late Marshal Yang Biao was in charge of the two departments and enjoyed the highest position of the country. Cao Cao was angry because of this, but he was accused of not committing a crime. The five poisons were all in full swing, and he violated his own feelings and did not care about the law. In addition, Zhao Yan, a counselor, was loyal to remonstrance and outspoken, and his morality could be accepted. Therefore, the holy court listened to him and changed his appearance and embellishment. Cao Cao wanted to confuse the Ming Dynasty, cut off the way of speech, arbitrarily arrested and killed, and did not wait to serve the country. In addition, King Xiao of Liang was the mother of the late emperor. His tomb was noble and prominent. The mulberry, pine and cypress trees should also be respectful. Cao Cao led his soldiers to dig in person, break open the coffin and expose the body, and seize the gold and silver treasures. As a result, the holy court shed tears, and the people were sad. Cao Cao also specially set up a general in the hill and a lieutenant in the gold. Wherever he passed, there was no place where bones could not be found. In the position of the three public, the behavior of the cruel and cruel, corrupt the country, harm the people, poison people and ghosts! In addition, they were meticulous, cruel and harsh, and they set up laws and regulations to prevent each other. They used fishing nets to fill the paths, dug traps to block the roads, and hung nets with their hands, and touched the traps with their feet. Therefore, there were bored people in Yanzhou and Yuzhou, and there were complaints in the capital. According to the records of history books, there is no way of courtiers, greedy cruel cruel, to Cao Cao is the most serious! The shogunate is interrogating foreign traitors, but there is no time to discipline them. However, Cao Cao's wild ambition, secretly harboring evil plans, he wanted to destroy the pillars of the Han Dynasty, isolate and weaken the Han Dynasty, eliminate the loyal and upright people, and become a strong man. In the past, when Gongsun Zan attacked the north, the strong bandits rebelled and resisted for a year. Cao Cao took advantage of the fact that the enemy had not yet been defeated and secretly sent letters to help the king's army externally and attack internally. When the enemy's men were exposed, Gongsun Zan was also killed, so the enemy's edge was defeated and his plan failed. Now they are stationed in Fucang, blocking the Yellow River as a solid, want to use the axe of mantis to resist the tunnel of the long car. The shogunate followed the prestige of the Han Dynasty and broke through the universe. There were millions of long halberds and thousands of barbarian cavalry. The soldiers who fought hard in the middle of the Yellow River crossed the Taihang Mountains and Qingzhou crossed the Jiluo River. The army crossed the Yellow River and blocked the front of the army. Jingzhou captured Wanye and blocked the rear of the army. Thunder shook the tiger's steps. It was like raising a fire to catch the flying grass, covering the sea to burn the charcoal. What could not be extinguished? In addition, Cao Cao's army officers and soldiers, those who can fight, are from Youji, some of the old camp subordinates, all resentment, want to return home, tears to the North. The rest of the people of Yanzhou and Yuzhou, as well as the remnants of Lu Bu, Zhang Yang and other people, were forced to submit to Sun Quan at that time. They were all injured and killed, and everyone became enemies. If you go back to the mountain, climb the hill and beat the drum and blow the wind, wave the white flag to open the way to surrender, you will certainly fall apart and not wait for the blood to be shed. At present, the Han Dynasty is in decline, and the laws and regulations are lax. There is no assistant in the holy dynasty, and there is no power to resist. Within the capital, all the ministers who are loyal to the court are hanging their heads and wings, and there is no one to rely on. Even if there are loyal ministers who are threatened by tyrannical ministers, how can they show their integrity? He also led 700 elite soldiers to surround the palace. He pretended to be a guard on the outside, but he was actually arrested on the inside. I'm afraid he's going to usurp the throne and rebel. This is the time when loyal ministers pour their brains on the earth, and when martyrs make contributions. How can we not encourage them? Cao Cao also pretended to be the emperor and sent messengers to send troops. I am afraid that the remote prefectures and counties will give too much, betray the masses, rebel, lose their reputation, and be laughed at by the world. On the same day, the four states of Youzhou and Qingji went hand in hand. When the letter arrived in Jingzhou, he ordered his troops to show up and coordinate with General Jianzhong. Each state and county organized their own righteous soldiers, reduced their border, raised their weapons to show their power, and helped the country together. Then extraordinary achievements were made. Those who get Cao Cao's head will be granted the title of Marquis of 5,000 households and rewarded with 50 million yuan. Those who surrender to the army are not to be questioned. It is necessary to spread the grace and credit, publicize the reward, and announce it to the world, so that everyone knows that the holy dynasty is in trouble. As the law!
