Chapter 645: Beware of Jiangdong and Propose to Become the King

PreviousBack to directoryNext
After hearing Ma Liang's inquiry, Mi Yang couldn't help but ponder.

If you want to resolve the Qiang rebellion in Guanxi once and for all, the best way is to conduct Wei Huo's campaign.

When dealing with foreigners, just conquer them and smash them to pieces.

Judging from the current situation, this once-and-for-all solution cannot be adopted by the big man.

There are many reasons.

The main reason is that the current big man is not suitable for launching a big battle.

Not to mention that after one year of the Northern Expedition, most of the Han's field elites were exhausted and in urgent need of rest.

Let's just say that in the past year, after the Han Dynasty regained Chang'an, its territory had been greatly expanded.

For the newly added large territory, the Han Dynasty will definitely spend a certain amount of time digesting it.

A very important reason why there is unrest among the Qiang people in Tianshui is that the Han Dynasty has not yet completely digested the territory of Guanxi.

For the foreigners who have lived in Kansai for hundreds of years, the Han army, which has just restored sovereignty over Kansai, is actually a "guest" at the moment.

And for the future unification war, the Han Dynasty must not only digest the large territory of Kansai, but also restore production to the land of Kansai as soon as possible.

Since Huan Ling, the land of Kansai has suffered too many wars, population loss, and serious land devastation.

Until the dilapidated land of Guanzhong is restored into the fertile soil of the 800-mile Qinchuan River, the national power of the Han Dynasty will not be qualitatively improved.

If the national power cannot be qualitatively improved, how can the productivity of Yizhou alone support the great Han Dynasty's war to unify the world?

On this point, Mi Yang, Liu Bei, and Zhuge Liang have the same opinion.

So for the big man right now, the most important thing is to recuperate.

Under the national policy of recuperation and recuperation, Mi Yang was not suitable to send a large number of troops to encircle and suppress the Qiang rebellion in Tianshui County.

And if a large number of soldiers and horses are not sent to encircle and suppress them, it will be difficult to quell the Qiang rebellion in Tianshui.

After all, the Tianshui Qiang people have a favorable geographical position. If they can't defeat them, they can always outrun them. After the Han army to suppress the rebellion leaves Tianshui, the Qiang people with evil intentions will come out to burn, kill, and loot.

This is also a trick that the Qiang people have tried repeatedly against the Han Dynasty for hundreds of years.

While pondering, Mi Yang had already gone over the stakes in his mind.

Tianshui Qiang chaos is indeed a difficult matter.

The tricky part is that if the Qiang chaos in Tianshui is not dealt with well, then the Qiang chaos in Guanxi will not be limited to Tianshui County.

But Mi Yang is not helpless about this matter.

"The Tianshui Qiang Rebellion seems to be caused by some Qiang people who want to avenge the guilty chiefs, but from Gu's point of view, their main purpose is actually to seize food."

Mi Yang revealed the nature of Qiang chaos in Tianshui with one sentence.

The alien races of the current generation are quite similar to a certain great ethnic group of later generations.

Moral decay, bullying the weak and fearing the strong.

It cannot be said that it is impossible for the Qiang people to avenge those guilty chiefs. After all, they are all "loved relatives and friends".

But it would be too simplistic to think that the purpose of the Qiang's unrest was just this.

At present, the land of Kansai has entered a cold winter. When the cold winter comes, not only the Qiang people, but also all other ethnic groups will fall into famine.

In the four hundred years since the Han Dynasty, foreign turmoil has mostly occurred in autumn and winter.

The Qiang people do not know how to grow their own food, so once they are short of food, they will naturally try to rob the Han people of their food.

This is the reason why the Qiang people still have unrest even though the Han army is in great power.

It's not that they are not afraid of the Han army's prestige, but they are more afraid of death.

After understanding the nature of Tianshui Qiang's chaos, Mi Yang quickly continued to Ma Liang:

"When you go to raise a batch of food and grass, you don't need to be large or fast, but you must let the news out.

It is said that the Han Dynasty recently wants to reward those Qiang tribes who have made meritorious service in the Northern Expedition."

Mi Yang's instructions immediately made Ma Liang's eyes light up.

In this Northern Expedition, some Qiang and Di tribes in Guanxi made contributions.

According to common sense, the Han Dynasty should have rewarded these tribes.

Mi Yang chose this opportunity to release the news that he would reward some Qiang and Di tribes. The main purpose was to appease them.

Aren’t you short of food?

Don't grab it, the big man will give it to you.

But the big man only gives money to those who obey him.

After this news spreads throughout Kansai, will most Qiang and Di aliens still think of risking their lives to cause rebellion?

Why bother licking the blood from a knife when you can get food by kneeling down?

What's more important is that even if some Qiang and Di tribes insist on licking blood from their swords, these Qiang and Di tribes don't even need the Han to send troops, and they will probably be annexed by other tribes who are eagerly waiting for the Han to give them food.

For foreigners, it's not that they can't use the knife on their loved ones, relatives and friends, just add more money.

Of course, Mi Yang will not just use appeasement methods towards foreign ethnic groups.

Mi Yang turned to Ma Liangyan and said, "Send an order to Jingzhou Mu and ask him to withdraw his troops back to Jingzhou.

And after arranging the military affairs in Jingzhou, he will come to Chang'an to report on his duties as soon as possible."

If Mi Yang's first order surprised Ma Liang, then his second order surprised Ma Liang.

During Mi Yang's Northern Expedition to Guanzhong, Liu Bei ordered Zhang Fei to lead the Northern Expedition from Jingzhou in order to complete Longzhong's strategic concept.

From the military information we received before, we know that Zhang Fei is currently leading his army to besiege Wancheng, and the situation is not bad on the surface.

At least in Ma Liang's view, it might not be impossible for Zhang Fei to capture Wancheng in the near future.

In this case, why did Mi Yang summon Zhang Fei back to the court?

The most important thing is, after the generals of chariots and cavalry are transferred back to Chang'an, who will be responsible for guarding Jingzhou?

Mi Yang noticed Ma Liang's surprised gaze. He was about to explain, but he didn't expect a sudden laugh from outside the lobby.

"The general thinks that Sun Quan will be restless!"

After hearing these words, everyone in the hall all looked at the entrance of the lobby.

Under the gaze of everyone, Zhuge Liang supported Liu Bei and slowly walked into the hall.

Seeing that Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei were arriving, everyone in the hall saluted them one after another.

Even Mi Yang quickly came to Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang and bowed to Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang respectfully.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! When Mi Yang raised his head again, his face was already filled with joy.

He finally doesn't have to work overtime tonight!

After seeing the joy on Mi Yang's face, Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang still didn't understand Mi Yang's little thoughts. Liu Bei took the lead and said with a smile:

"Being so lazy at such a young age is nothing like when I was young."

After Liu Bei laughed and scolded Mi Yang, Zhuge Liang took a look at the mountain of official documents on Mi Yang's case, and he also said with dissatisfaction:

"A few official documents can scare you to this point.

You haven't learned a single bit of my ability to govern."

In Zhuge Liang's eyes, those mountains of official documents are nothing.

If he were to take charge, he would be able to take care of everything within a day.

The "questioning" from Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, two elders who were like teachers and fathers, made Mi Yang look embarrassed on his face.

But the shameless Mi Yang was just embarrassed for a while, and then led Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang to two places to sit down.

After Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang sat down, Mi Yang glanced at the people present who were suppressing their laughter and ordered: "You all should stand down first."

After hearing Mi Yang's words, all the ministers present at the Shangshutai hurriedly walked out of the hall.

If they took one step too late, they would be afraid that they would not be able to hold back their laughter.

Who would have thought that a great general like Huo Guang would sometimes be taught a lesson?

After everyone left, Mi Yang looked at Zhuge Liang and said, "Of course."

It was Zhuge Liang who just said that Mi Yang was worried about Sun Quan's rebellion.

And when Mi Yang said the word "ran", the smiles on Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang's faces gradually disappeared.

Liu Bei asked with a serious face: "Is Zisheng worried that Sun Quan will abandon the Han Dynasty and form an alliance with Wei Wei?"

Liu Bei knew very well that if Sun Quan wanted to take action against Jingzhou again, then Sun Quan would definitely form an alliance with Cao Wei first.

With the current national strength of the Han Dynasty, it is impossible for Sun Quan to let his family deal with the Han Dynasty.

After Liu Bei asked that question, he then asked: "What news has Zisheng received?"

Liu Bei knew that Mi Yang had a minister who heard about Cao, and he was always well-informed, so he asked this question.

Facing Liu Bei's question, Mi Yang shook her head.

No matter how well-informed Si Wen Cao was, he would never be able to find out about Cao Wei's conspiracy with Jiang Dong for Mi Yang.

However, although there is no definite news, Mi Yang has his own views on the situation.

"After our country regains control of Kansai and rests for several years, our national power will definitely be higher than that of Wei Wei and Jiangdong.

Although Sun Quan is cunning, he is not a stupid person, and he will naturally know this.

Your Majesty has always known people, do you think that Sun Quan would be willing to hand over his power and become a free lord for my great Han Dynasty?"

Liu Bei didn't need to think about Mi Yang's question and immediately blurted out:

"Absolutely impossible."

When Liu Bei made this judgment, he understood why Mi Yang was so worried.

Some things don't need to be known through intelligence. They can be inferred logically through an understanding of people's hearts and a grasp of the general trend of the world.

"Yang believes that within a few months at most, Sun Quan will definitely take action against Jingzhou."

Hearing Mi Yang's certain conclusion, Liu Bei's expression became more solemn.

But at the same time, Liu Bei also had a puzzled look on his face.

"Since Zisheng was worried that Sun Quan would plot to seize Jingzhou again, why did he summon Yide to return to the court?"

Liu Bei could understand this by asking Zhang Fei to withdraw his troops from Wancheng in time to deploy defenses in Jingzhou.

But after Zhang Fei deployed the defense in Jingzhou, he still had to ask Zhang Fei to return to Chang'an, but Liu Bei didn't understand.

Seeing Liu Bei's doubts, Zhuge Liang explained: "Wolves want to do obscene things, but they tend to be wary of family dogs.

But if the guard dog is not around, will the jackal still hesitate?

Compared with hidden arrows, which are difficult to prevent, it is often a better way to actively lure the enemy into a trap."

Zhuge Liang's explanation made Liu Bei suddenly realize.

Sure enough, Zhuge Liang is the only one in the world who can keep up with Mi Yang's thinking.

But Mi Yang's purpose of summoning Zhang Fei to return to court was more than this.

"Yang planned to publicly submit a letter to your majesty after General Chaoqiu returned to the court, requesting your Majesty to posthumously make the late general the king.

Such a major event will definitely cause an uproar in both the government and the public.

If the chariot and cavalry generals are in court, Yang will be more confident."

Mi Yang's words made Liu Bei's eyes suddenly become tender.
