The hall fell into a dead silence. Everyone stared at the two giants in the hall. No one expected that the two most powerful generals of the Jin Kingdom would actually confront each other in public. This was beyond everyone's imagination.
It’s so unexpected that others don’t even know how to interrupt.
He Wuji frowned, walked past Liu Yi, and whispered: "Xile, if we have something to do, let's resolve it privately. It's not good to say it publicly like this. How about..."
Liu Yi burst into laughter suddenly: "Wuji, you can't tell anyone anything. Since we are discussing state affairs here, everything can be said openly. Otherwise, if everything is decided by us in private, then how about that?"
What’s the difference between the mafia that secretly controlled everything in the past? Ji Nu, are you right?”
Liu Yu looked at Liu Yi and suddenly laughed: "Xile said it very well. Since we are discussing state affairs, we should indeed discuss them openly. These matters are not only decided by our three giants in Beijing, but also by all the officials present.
They are all high-ranking officials and dignitaries of our Jin Dynasty, and they should also discuss these military and state affairs. Everyone, how do you think Liu Fujun’s proposal just now should be handled?"
He turned his head and looked at Meng Chang, who had a gloomy face: "Meng Pushe, tell me, do you agree with Liu Fujun's opinion?"
Meng Chang gritted his teeth and said: "These letters of Yin Zhongwen's collaboration with the enemy are ironclad evidence, but these things about Liu Fuguo (Liu Huaisu is now the general of Fuguo) have not been verified. Now he is the general guarding the eastern part of Jingzhou and Jiangxia.
The task is heavy and the position is critical. If you dismiss a general just based on hearsay, you may miss a major event. Moreover, even if you need to replace someone, there must be a replacement to take over the handover, just in case..."
At this point, he stopped talking and said no more.
Liu Yu sneered and said, "What Meng Pushe wants to say is, what if Huaisu has other intentions and is unwilling to hand over his power and army, and even raises troops to rebel?"
Meng Chang sighed: "We must plan and prepare for the worst. If what General Fujun said is true, then General Fuguo is suspected of taking the opportunity to expand the army by suppressing the rebellion. In the hundred years before the Jin Dynasty, there was always someone who was in charge of one side.
When warlords take advantage of the opportunity to separate themselves and establish themselves, the first step is to expand the army. Then they will use the excuse that the army is huge and the current supply of food and grass is insufficient to demand government food and grass in the area directly under their jurisdiction. Over time, they will become just like Jingzhou in the past, and they will become too big to lose.
Already."
He Wuji said in a deep voice: "I think Meng Pushe has overstepped his bounds. General Fuguo is my deputy general and a cousin of the Zhenjun. He has also been a good brother of our Beifu for many years. Everyone should know what he is like.
He is not the kind of person who has different intentions. The reason why rebellions in various places are difficult to put down is because there are people like Yin Zhongwen who constantly inform the rebels and let them take advantage of the absence of the army to cause rebellion. In addition, the land of Jingzhou belongs to the Huan family.
Although Huan Chu was destroyed, there were still many remnants who were loyal to the Huan clan. They would take advantage of the opportunity to cause chaos. General Fu Guo had been away on an expedition for nearly two years, and his subordinates had no time to go home. It was very difficult.
Thank you, I think it is okay to send a suitable general to replace him, but you must not unjustly accuse him and accuse him randomly!"
Liu Yi said coldly: "Zhennan, when you asked Fu Guo to go out to suppress the rebellion, you only gave him 5,000 troops, but now, his army has exceeded 20,000. This is not an arbitrary charge.
"
He Wuji gritted his teeth: "When we went out to conquer Huan Xuan, we only had 10,000 troops. Now you have 50,000 troops and I have 30,000 elite troops. According to your opinion, we all have problems?"
Liu Yi sneered: "We defeated Huan Xuan and the rebels from all walks of life with an army of hundreds of thousands, and collected many surrendered troops. But now that Jingzhou has been pacified, it is just the struggle of some remaining parties, which can allow him to expand his army four times."
The above, Wuji, things are not so casually analogous. In my case, officials from all over Jingzhou wrote to report that the army of the auxiliary state was extorting excessive demands, and even in the name of suppressing rebellion, they reached out everywhere to instruct his cronies to seize power in various states and counties.
It was also said that it was for the purpose of supervising the provision of food and fodder for the army and obeying authority in emergencies. I would like to ask, is this also what you authorized?"
He Wuji was speechless for a moment, and just murmured: "This, this, the military situation on the front line is like a fire, and sometimes it is not impossible to obey the authority in urgent matters. Xile, you..."
Liu Yu said calmly: "Okay, Wuji, needless to say, thank you for defending Huaisu. However, I have also received many memorials from officials in Jiangzhou and Jingzhou to impeach Huaisu. Xile said
That's right, he did do a lot of things beyond his authority, which exceeded the authority of a general and exceeded his responsibilities as the governor of Huainan and Jiangxia counties."
He Wuji's expression changed: "Jinu, you..."
Liu Yu turned around and saluted Sima Dezong: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, General Liu Huaisu was recommended by me. No matter what reasons he has, he has already done something beyond his authority. Jingzhou and Jiang
The state has just been recovered, and the local veterans, soldiers and civilians are all looking at our performance. If we can't abide by the laws here, how can we make the people here support the imperial court?"
"No matter what reasons Liu Huaisu had, he did not act expediently and had the power to supervise the army with integrity, and he did not promptly report these things afterwards. These two alone are enough to dismiss him on the spot. As for the candidate to replace him, I
It is recommended that the current governor of Yuzhou, Zhuge Changmin, speed up the 3,000 troops guarding Liyang to go to Hutao Mountain to handle the handover with Liu Huaisu. The troops led by Liu Huaisu will be temporarily led by governor Zhuge. After the rebellion is suppressed,
Then return it to the governor He."
Liu Yi was a little surprised. He did not expect Liu Yu to make such a decision, and gritted his teeth: "Liu Zhenjun's treatment was very fair. If Liu Fuguo is really loyal, he will hand over his troops unconditionally, just in case..."
Liu Yu said coldly: "If he really rebels, I will personally lead the troops to destroy him. My Liu family has been loyal for generations, and I believe that my cousin will never betray the country and raise troops to cause chaos at any time."
Yes! Even if he is really obsessed, his soldiers will not let him cause chaos. I am willing to guarantee this with my life!"
He Wuji said solemnly: "I am also willing to work with Liu Zhenjun to guarantee the loyalty of General Fuguo with my life!"
Liu Yi rolled his eyes and laughed loudly: "You two, I just said it casually, there is no need to take it seriously. Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I agree to the proposal of suppressing the army."
As he said this, he was about to turn around and return to his position when he heard Liu Yu's voice coldly coming from behind him: "Xile, don't go back in a hurry. Next, we should discuss how to arrange for you.
This is a question for a great hero."
