Bian Fanzhi was stunned at first, then said urgently: "Your Majesty, you must not do this. The aristocratic families in Jiankang City are wavering in their stance and may rebel at any time. Relying on their servants to monitor the families of soldiers is tantamount to taking the initiative.
The power has been given to others. If they turn to Liu Yu, it will be all over!"
Liu Tingyun said coldly: "Haven't Shizhong Bian considered the damage to your Majesty's reputation by evacuating the capital without fighting? Since your Majesty raised his troops, he has been invincible in every battle and conquered every attack. Even if there are occasional small setbacks,
He has never retreated without a fight. In other words, the reason why the old troops of Jingxiang came to surrender one after another when the world returned home was not only due to the reputation of the late emperor, but also because of His Majesty’s own luck as the destined son. If we evacuate the capital now,
, is tantamount to showing the world that Your Majesty is no match for Liu Yu. When the time comes, let alone return to Jingzhou to regroup the army, even the existing troops will probably mutiny. No soldier is willing to follow a man who flees without a fight.
Your Majesty, even a woman like me can’t!"
Huan Xuan's face turned red and he said loudly: "Queen, what do you mean by this?"
Liu Tingyun bit her lip tightly: "Your Majesty, Tingyun was born and raised in Jiankang. I am very happy to help you achieve your great cause in this city. If you really insist on leaving, then Tingyun has no choice but to stay in Jiankang."
Die here, because Jingzhou has never been Tingyun’s home. Without Jiankang, without those relationships and ties with the aristocratic family, what use will Tingyun have to you? Instead of following you back to Jingzhou
, the families of the soldiers who died in Jingzhou were angered, and I, a woman from the Jiankang family, was regarded as the representative of all the Yangzhou people who opposed you, and was finally executed. It is better to let me die here. At least, I can still join the Liu family.
Ancestors, be buried with my family!"
At this point, she couldn't bear it any longer, she burst into tears and kept sobbing.
Huan Xuan sighed and said: "Jingzu, Jingzu, you have always thought of everything, but this time, you really missed one thing, that is, people's support is against you. The queen is right, if we retreat without a fight
, I will look down upon all the Jiankang families, and they will abandon me just like they abandoned Sima Yuanxian. Originally, we left Jingzhou and settled in Jiankang as our capital, which has already hurt the hearts of the Jingzhou elders. The only thing we can do to compensate them is
It is the property and manor of Wudi. But now that these things are not available, they will flee without fighting. Ordinary soldiers will not care about this. They will only think that we have tens of thousands of troops, but we can't even defeat Liu with a mere few thousand.
If Yudu can't deal with them, and they don't even have the courage to fight, then they will definitely collapse on their own. At that time, these people will become Liu Yu's subordinates and attack us in turn. Even if we get to Jingzhou, what can we do?
?”
Bian Fanzhi said solemnly: "Your Majesty, as long as we control their family members, we can..."
Huan Xuan shook his head: "How can this kind of behavior like that of bandits and bandits be done by an emperor? Besides, most of the family members of these soldiers are also women who were kidnapped in the past. How can they have deep feelings? If they are really
If you control your family, you control everything. So when Liu Laozhi rebelled, why didn't these Jingkou people follow him? Dear ancestors, you'd better help me think carefully about how to fight this battle, how to fight it. Even if it's a stalemate
It’s better to just do it for a while and decide the next step depending on the situation than it is now.”
Bian Fanzhi let out a long sigh: "Your Majesty, you are putting all your bets on this one time. You always make decisions before taking action, leaving a way out in everything. Why are you so stubborn this time?"
Huan Xuan gritted his teeth: "Then why didn't you talk about Liu Yu? Did he leave a way for himself to retreat? Besides, I don't think that even if we lose all the troops in Jiankang now, it will really be the end of the world. Back then, I had nothing.
You can also resurrect in Jingzhou. Even if you return to Jingzhou, you can also summon the old troops to fight again. Do you have to bring these tens of thousands of troops back to Jingzhou to fight? Don't forget, I still have tens of thousands of loyal subordinates in Jingzhou, Lu
Strong generals like Zong Zhi and Huan Zhen are also there, who can say that there will be no fight?"
Bian Fanzhi gritted his teeth: "If your Majesty insists on fighting, I suggest that your Majesty follow the method you mentioned before, garrison Fuzhoushan and set up camp, with the Beifu soldiers and Xifu soldiers in the front, the Chu army in the back, and Liu Yu all the way.
A bloody battle will inevitably lead to exhaustion. If we stand ready, he will most likely not attack by force, but will camp for a stalemate. When the time comes, we will quickly mobilize Jingzhou soldiers and horses to come to the rescue. As long as we last for a month, Huan Zhen and Lu Zongzhi's Jingzhou garrison will arrive.
We will have the opportunity to counterattack Jingkou again and seize the initiative."
He Danzhi shook his head: "Shizhong Bian is still too conservative. If you want to fight, hit the big ones and hit them hard. We have an army of 60,000 to 70,000 people. Liu Yu now has at most 3,000 troops. We can fight with 20 people."
He is the only one who can drown him even if he spits on him. Liu Yu is rushing in with light troops now just to cover up the weakness of his lack of troops and to show that he has a large number of troops. I have studied Liu Yu's art of war for many years and know that he likes it.
Such cheating is also in line with the gambler character of the Jingkou people. Therefore, if we take the initiative to attack Liu Yu, he will never dare to fight and will inevitably retreat. In this way, the crisis in Jiankang City will be relieved, and all places will
Those who rebelled against Liu Yu will also reconsider the consequences, and the aristocratic families in Jiankang City will also stand on His Majesty's side, and everything will be fine."
Huan Xuan nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, at this moment, at that moment, this time Liu Yu won several battles in a row, and his morale was strong. This was not a situation of waiting for work as I said the other day. It was a situation where Beijing and Ba rebel against the party and ran wildly for two days.
We have traveled hundreds of miles but gained nothing. At this time, we will be exhausted mentally and physically. But now, if we continue to shrink and not fight, it will only make Liu Yu more arrogant and make more people fall to him. Either we don't fight or we fight.
It’s a decisive battle, there’s no problem with that!”
Huan Qian and He Danzhi said at the same time: "Your Majesty, we are willing to fight to the death!"
Bian Fanzhi sighed and said: "Since your Majesty has decided to go to war, I have nothing to say. I only want to say one last thing. I also ask your Majesty to keep a good army in hand and hand it over to General Yu Yizhi of the rear army. Our
The military strength is far greater than that of Liu Yu, and they are not inferior to this elite force. However, if Liu Yu seizes the opportunity to raid one unit, then there needs to be strong troops to fill in, so as not to give Liu Yu a breakthrough and the entire line collapses."
Huan Xuan smiled and said: "That's right. Stop thinking about escaping and shrinking. Think more about how to win this battle. According to your advice, the general reserve team is the palace guard.
, the three thousand Royal Forest Army, General Yu, I can leave them all to you."
