Liu Yu pondered for a moment and then said: "Liangzhou is too far away. Not to mention that the power of the Jin Dynasty has not been able to reach it for more than a hundred years. Even the news is extremely inconvenient. Most of the information from humble positions is obtained through staying in

There is also a time difference between Chang'an's informant and the local intelligence in Liangzhou. Even in the late Han, Cao, Wei, Jin and Western Dynasties, the control of Liangzhou was very weak. The Qiang people rebelled for more than a hundred years.

For years, they could not be put down. For example, the Tufa clan in Nanliang was the Xianbei Tufa tree function that launched the great rebellion in the Later Han Dynasty. In the end, the powerful Han had to bribe assassins to assassinate him to put down the rebellion. So.

, it is too early to talk about how to manage Ganliang and Liangzhou. Only by taking Ganzhou first and controlling Longyou can we talk about Xu Tuliangzhou and Hexi."

Sima Yao nodded: "So, in your opinion, what will be the future trend of Liangzhou?"

Liu Yu curled his lips: "Western Qin is now a vassal state of the former Qin, and so is Qiu Chi. Later Liang Luguang has become independent and has severed ties with the former Qin. However, these three countries will not really listen to Fu Deng.

After Fu Deng's defeat at Dajiebao, it was no longer possible to reverse the war situation. Failure was only a matter of time. Sooner or later, once the former Qin was destroyed, the latter Qin would inevitably expand its power to the west.

.”

"After all, it is much more certain to clean up these local forces in Liangzhou and Longyou than to go east to Tongguan and compete head-on with the powerful Jin, Northern Wei and Later Yan. Yao Xing himself does not have the ambition to conquer the world. I

It seems that he is more likely to take the sweet and cool land to the west, and then support the remaining forces of the Tiefu Xiongnu to establish themselves in Hetao as a buffer with the Northern Wei Dynasty. As for the land of Guandong, whether it is the Central Plains or Bingzhou, unless there is a big change

, if there is a major fighter opportunity, he will not send troops easily."

Sima Shangzhi said bitterly: "A while ago, Yao Xing seduced my general Yang Fosong from the Liangzhou area of ​​Dajin to rebel and surrender. Yang Fosong was Mao Qiu's favorite general, and he had met Liu Yu several times.

It’s fate.”

Liu Yu shook his head helplessly: "Yes, Yang Fosong is also a descendant of the Yang family in Qiuchi. He is the bravest of the three armies and is powerful in the Hanzhong area, but his group and Yang Ding's group are fighting to the death.

Over the years, Yang Ding repeatedly invaded Hanzhong, but was repelled by Yang Fosong. Unfortunately, after Mao Qiu died, Liangzhou governor did not appoint Yang Fosong, but sent another central official to take over. Yang Fosong originally thought that this

The position will be his turn, but he rebelled against me in anger and surrendered to Qin. Although his rebellion is unforgivable, it is a pity that a tiger general leaves Jin just like this."

Sima Shangzhi sneered: "It's true that heroes cherish heroes, and rebels lament rebels. Sergeant Liu, are you feeling the same pain as this Yang Fosong?"

Liu Yu said loudly: "I, Liu Yu, am devoted to protecting the Jin Dynasty and have never betrayed me. Is it really okay for the leading general to frame me like this in front of His Majesty?"

Sima Yao waved his hand: "Okay, okay, let's not talk about the past. Yang Fosong betrayed the Jin Dynasty. There is nothing to say. Just act according to the law. But when the Later Qin Dynasty blatantly tempted our Jin generals to rebel, in fact,

He is provoking me, the Jin Dynasty, and Yao Chang also asked Yao Xing to plot my land in the Central Plains. Liu Yu, who do you think we should rely on to prevent the invasion of the Later Qin Dynasty?"

Liu Yu said calmly: "Your Majesty has recently reorganized the defense of the Central Plains. He has asked Xi Hui to lead the Yongzhou governor, command the troops and horses of the Central Plains and the Nanyang Basin in northern Jing.

He has military and political talents, enough to guard the northern gateway of the Jin Dynasty. But..."

Sima Yao frowned: "It's just that he is a member of the Xi family after all. The Xi family just had a big rebel named Xi Chao, so Xi Hui's loyalty is questionable. Is it possible that he will follow the path of Yang Fosong?"

Sima Shangzhi immediately made a military salute: "The general is willing to share your majesty's worries and go out to Yongzhou to recall Xi Hui."

Liu Yu shook his head: "I don't think it's okay to hold a humble position. Xi Hui has been in office for many days. If he wanted to rebel, he would have rebelled long ago. Xi Chao's conspiracy is behind the entire Xi family. You can't destroy the pillar of the country just because of one person.

Besides, if he really wanted to rebel and sent someone to replace him at this time, he would probably rebel directly in the state, just like Yang Fosong. When the successor governor was on the way, he fled with his troops and defected to the Later Qin Dynasty.

.”

Sima Shangzhi sneered and said: "Then according to Sergeant Liu's opinion, what ability do you have to replace him with Xi Hui? Is it possible that Yongzhou will be named Xi for the rest of his life?"

Liu Yu looked at Sima Yao and said seriously: "Your Majesty now only needs to let Xi Hui continue to guard Yongzhou and give more comfort. When the interior is pacified in the future and the Northern Expedition is launched, Xi Hui will be allowed to lead the troops to join the Northern Expedition. As long as he brings troops to join,

There are ways to annex his tribesmen, and after the war, use their merits or punishments to appoint them to other places. In this way, the problem of Yongzhou can be solved without bloodshed. This is better than directly ordering replacements and forcing the generals to rebel.

Well done."

Sima Yao laughed: "Look, look, Shang Zhi, you all say that Liu Yu is a martial artist with no ideas, but you can't think of such a method. It seems that the princes in my court are

Compared to Sergeant Liu, it's much worse. I'm very happy with today's response, but I want to know one last thing, what were you worried about Xi Hui just now?"

Liu Yu sighed: "I am not worried that Xi Hui will raise his troops to rebel against Jin at this time. However, Jingzhou behind him has the ambition to annex Yongzhou. Yin Zhongkan is the governor of Jingzhou, but the real power lies with Xiang Huanxuan of Nanjun.

In the hand, Huan Xuan was Xi Chao's student and apprentice before. He was willing to separate Nanyang in the north, merge it with the Central Plains to form Yongzhou, and make Xi Hui the governor. He must have made some deals with Xi Chao. Now Xi Chao is dead.

He will not be willing to lose the territory that belongs to him and will definitely try his best to regain it. I am not worried that Xi Hui will rebel, but I am really worried that Huan Xuan will use insidious means to seize Yongzhou. If he is not careful, it will lead to

The civil war is the tragedy of our Jin Dynasty."

Sima Yao frowned: "Huan Xuan may have this intention, but Yin Zhongkan has been my loyal minister for many years. He is loyal and upright, and he is extremely filial to his mother. He should not be like this."

Liu Yu gritted his teeth and glanced at Sima Shangzhi. Sima Yao frowned: "General Shangzhi, please retreat first. I have something to say and want to listen to Sergeant Liu's solo."

Sima Shangzhi bowed unwillingly, retreated, and glared at Liu Yu fiercely. When the sound of the armor plates hitting his body disappeared outside the palace, Liu Yucai slowly said: "Because the leading general has been

I am on good terms with the King of Kuaiji and Wang Shangshu, and it is related to the dispute over Changdao, so I have to ask him to withdraw from my humble position."
