Jiangbei, Liuhe, Beifu Army Jianwu Military Camp.
Liu Yu'an was sitting in the commander's tent. Only Liu Mu was sitting in the lower position of Chang Shi. He looked at Liu Yu calmly and said slowly: "Huan Xuan finally moved. The forwards Wu Fuzhi and Huangfu Fu
Huan Zhen followed, and Huan Xuan led the central army behind him, with 80,000 soldiers and 4,000 warships. They sailed eastward along the Yangtze River. They have defeated Yuzhang and are now pointing directly at Liyang."
Liu Yu nodded: "Huan Xuan was originally afraid of our Beifu Army and Sima Yuanxian taking the initiative to go to Jingzhou, so he stood firm at first, but Sima Yuanxian did not move for more than ten days in a row. Huan Xuan is a fool, and he can do it
Seeing the quarrel between him and the Beifu Army, if we don't take action now, then when. To put it bluntly, the only person Huan Xuan can control and command is Sima Shangzhi of Liyang. Kill him.
Without Sima Shangzhi, it's hard to say whether the Beifu army will fight or defend."
Liu Muzhi looked at Liu Yu and said with a smile: "Then are you fighting or defending, send slave?"
Liu Yu sighed: "Mu Zhi, I don't have to hide it from you anymore. Now I can see clearly that in this world, if you want to realize your ideals and ambitions, you can't just hold on to those noble morals and principles, and you can't lose your original intention."
, but you must have the ability to realize your own wishes. In the past twenty years, the reason why I have repeatedly plotted, framed, and even made so many brothers suffer is not because my persistence is wrong, but because I have no
Enough power to support me in realizing my ideals. This time of Tianshi Dao chaos, even the mafia, which has been controlling the wind and rain for hundreds of years, was hit hard. It lost its land, population, and everything. And in this troubled world,
It gave me the opportunity to rise above the aristocratic families and the warlords in the feudal town, and I can no longer miss it."
Liu Muzhi nodded: "If you can figure this out, everything will be easier to handle. I'm afraid that you will hold on to the pedantic view of loyalty, filial piety and benevolence this time, and miss a great opportunity again. The civil war was not started by you.
Yes, but you can use it. This time, I hope you can control the entire Beifu Army, and then control the world!"
Liu Yu shook his head: "If you force Marshal Liu at this time, it will cause divisions within the Beifu Army and even bloodshed. Just because I want to seize power does not mean that I want to fight with my brothers. This is the bottom line. Fatty, I know.
What do you want, but now is not the time for me. I need to establish meritorious deeds in the Beifu Army again and again, let more people, especially the veterans, stand on my side, and finally let the commander see
Just be clear about the situation and take the initiative to give in."
Liu Muzhi frowned: "I'm afraid it won't be easy. His mind is now full of dreams of becoming a mafia guard. How can he have any intention of retreating?"
Liu Yu's eyes flashed coldly: "Then he must completely cut off all hope for the mafia. In fact, without the mafia in the land of Sanwu, there is no power to control the world directly.
Playing some political tricks in the court without the support of the army can be said to be useless. I finally understand this now. As long as I can prevent the Beifu Army from being used for it, the mafia's power in the court will eventually collapse.
Lose!"
Liu Muzhi laughed: "So, you are going to watch Huan Xuan destroy Sima Shangzhi here? And then let Liu Laozhi destroy Sima Yuanxian?"
Liu Yu nodded: "I have always been wary of the ambitions of the Sima family. During the Western Dynasty, they caused the Eight Kings Rebellion. Later, I also experienced how Emperor Xiaowu wanted to use me to regain power.
Things, they don't have the ability, but they want to control the power of the world, and they don't hesitate to cause today's chaos. The current Sima Daozi, Sima Shangzhi, and Jing Yang are at odds with each other. Aren't they also the Sima emperors in the past who instigated the rebellion in order to alienate the great families in the world?
Was it caused by the civil war? In a sense, there is no difference between them and the mafia, except that one is in power and the other wants to seize power."
"And the mafia now wants to regain power by controlling this fool Sima Dezong. Their method is to manipulate and control Sima Yuanxian, but Sima Yuanxian is obviously out of their control and actually moved their Wudi Manor.
If this kind of dog-eat-dog mentality is allowed to continue, the civil strife in Jin Dynasty will never end. Neither my ambition of the Northern Expedition nor the people's livelihood and contentment will be possible. Therefore, I must use this civil war to
Eliminate Sima Yuanxian and Sima Shangzhi together and avoid future troubles forever."
Liu Muzhi frowned: "You want to do this through Huan Xuan? But Huan Xuan is even more dangerous. If he enters the capital, your life may not be saved."
Liu Yu said seriously: "We can only let Huan Xuan destroy Sima Shangzhi, and we must not let him enter the capital. Once Sima Shang is destroyed, the commander-in-chief will probably attack Sima Yuanxian, but in this way, the commander-in-chief will become a traitor again.
, and it is impossible to provide enough benefits to the soldiers, so they will become alienated from the Beifu Army. At this time, there are strong enemies outside and no backers at home. The mafia will turn to support me to control the Beifu Army and force the commander-in-chief to abdicate.
At that time, I can finally have the troops in hand to do what I want to do."
Liu Muzhi smiled and said: "After all, do you still want to cooperate with the mafia?"
Liu Yu sighed: "This time I became General Jianwu, I have actually cooperated with them. I don't know what Miaoyin's status is now, but at least the Xie family can keep in contact with them. If I want to uproot the entire mafia now, then
You have to make an enemy of the Xie family and the entire Jin Dynasty. It is not appropriate to do this when there are powerful enemies around. You need to know how to advance and retreat in a war. In the court, you will also need to briefly fight with your enemies in the future.
Cooperate. Fatty, I will need more help from you in the future."
Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "Leave this to me. Xianzhi can also help you. This time he was sent directly to Yuzhou by Liu Laozhi to be responsible for liaison with Sima Shangzhi and Yu Yue.
In other words, you are responsible for monitoring the military situation ahead. If you really want to sit back and watch Sima Shangzhi fail, at least don't defeat Xianzhi."
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "Don't worry, Xianzhi has told me about this a long time ago. He is prepared and has a way to escape. Moreover, I believe that he has a way to influence the situation of the battle."
While he was talking, Liu Daogui's voice came from outside the tent: "Brother, there is an urgent military report from the front!"
Liu Yu nodded and said in a deep voice: "Come in."
Liu Daogui ran into the tent sweating profusely, holding a small yellow leather scroll in his hand, and handed it to Liu Yu: "Urgent report from Xu Xian of Yuzhou. Sima Shang had previously resisted Huan Xuan, and the entire army was wiped out. He himself was captured.
, and Sima Xiuzhi, who stayed behind in Liyang, also abandoned the city and fled. The entire territory of Yuzhou has fallen into the hands of Huanxuan. Now the Jingzhou army has entered Liyang, which is only five hundred miles away from Jiankang!"
