Liu Yu was a little surprised. He looked at the serious look on Liu Muzhi's fat face and said, "You want to use this method to attract the people of the Hulu country? Is this feasible?"
Liu Muzhi nodded: "The land of Nanyan after the war will become the Qingzhou of the Jin Dynasty, which means we have new enemies. The rebels of Sima Guofan's party here at the junction of Qingyu and Henan have been fighting
Recruit surrender and accept the rebels, and use Qin as the backing to attract the hostile forces within the Jin Dynasty. Now there is a vague climate. After the war, we have to return to the army to fight against the demon bandits, and it is unlikely to eliminate these border rebels.
"
Liu Yu frowned: "Is it feasible to send Qingzhou's local troops and Murong's surrendered troops to attack them?"
Liu Muzhi said with a smile: "It is easy to defeat them. Xile from Yuzhou can do it. But the problem is that if these people lose, they will flee into Later Qin. Do we have the ability to start a full-scale war with Later Qin now?"
Liu Yu was silent for a while and sighed: "Later Qin is no better than Nanyan. It is a big country that sits on Guanzhong and the Central Plains and occupies two capitals. It also has hundreds of thousands of troops. It is not easy to destroy them. They dared to send that monk Jiumo before.
Luo Shi came to threaten us based on this confidence. In fact, if the monster thieves hadn't caused trouble, I really wanted to destroy Nanyan this time and take advantage of the situation to capture the Central Plains."
Liu Muzhi's expression changed: "Don't be impulsive, Ji Nu, you should know that a single move can affect the whole body. It's not just a problem of Hou Qin, but also..."
Liu Yu waved his hand: "I know that the Later Qin and the Northern Wei have intermarriage and good relations, and they are like allies. If we really go to war with the Later Qin, we have to consider the reaction of the Northern Wei and must be fully prepared. Qingzhou has just been taken down
, the rule here is not stable, not only cannot we use Qingzhou’s manpower and material resources, but we have to invest resources in a few years to stabilize this place, and we do not have the conditions for a full-scale war.”
"So, this is just talk. Even if there is no demon-thief rebellion, after conquering Nanyan, we must first pacify Lingnan and Xishu, and continue to cooperate with the aristocratic families until all the forces of the Jin Dynasty are integrated.
, then we can conduct a comprehensive Northern Expedition, first destroy the Later Qin, then capture Ganliang, and finally expel the Northern Wei and unify the country."
Liu Muzhi nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, this is the correct approach. At any time, as a commander-in-chief, you must stay calm and not be carried away by temporary anger. The treatment of the Murong clan involves the subsequent attack and destruction.
The intensity of their resistance when the barbarians invaded the country."
"If we can successfully accept the surrender of the Murong clan of Nanyan, other barbarians will not have the attitude of dying together when they are at a disadvantage militarily."
"So this time you insisted on not taking the Murong clan members as slaves, which is very good. This was what I was most worried about before. Once this precedent of enslaving a clan after the destruction of the country is set, the biggest trouble will not be to leave.
If we go back to the old path of aristocratic family and world, but fight again, the resistance we encounter will be even more intense."
"After all, there are only two to three hundred thousand Xianbei people in Southern Yan, and they have only been here for a short time. The founding of the country was only about ten years ago, and the people's hearts are not yet attached. The roots of the Northern Wei, Later Qin, and Liang are already deep. Han and Hu people live together in the country and intermarry.
A country that has been integrated for many years and is difficult to distinguish between Han and barbarians is completely different. When the time comes, you may face the desperate resistance of millions or tens of millions of people, which will far exceed the difficulty of destroying the country this time.
"
Liu Yu nodded: "I actually didn't think much about it. I just simply hate this kind of people oppressing people and enslaving people. Whether it's the Han people robbing the Hu people as slaves or the Hu people forcing the Han people to be slaves, it's all me.
What I don’t want to see is that the country I built and the country I built will never allow such a thing to happen. Unless it is a guilty butcher who kills civilians, he will have to pay for his crime by losing his freedom.
The price must be paid, but they should be punished by national law, not by becoming the private slaves of some noble families, powerful men, or chiefs. We cannot allow future generations to continue to be slaves."
Liu Muzhi sighed: "Jinnu, your thoughts are indeed those of the ancient sages. In this world where people are confused and beasts are rampant, it is even more valuable. But I still have to say that you must consider the reality in everything.
You cannot go against the majority of people just because of your lofty ideals and lofty ambitions. Even if you want to realize these ideas, you must benefit as many people as possible, or avoid losing too many benefits, so that they will stand firm.
On your side."
At this point, he paused: "Just like you want to abolish the emperor and return to the ancient abdication system, so you are already attacking the Sima family. But people like Sima Guofan and Sima Chuzhi will think that you are
You want to be the emperor yourself, so you have to start cleaning up and killing the Sima clan, so they will flee, rebel, and oppose you. In their eyes, you are the traitor and rebel of the Jin Dynasty.
They are the ones who are just, loyal, and patriotic. They regard you as Huan Xuan back then, and they are you before Jianyi."
Liu Yu said coldly: "If I want to seize the Sima family, I can just take the position myself after the success of Jianyi. Why bother to rescue Sima Dezong and Sima Dewen who are like corpses? These guys are running rampant on their own.
Those who are unruly, want to bully others by relying on their clan status, or want to be rewarded for no merit, do not see them when they are working hard, but jump out one by one when they are assigned officials and rewards, hold a grudge after being rejected, and do not hesitate to betray the country and surrender to the enemy. This kind of
They are extremely selfish and have no regard for their family and country, but they are very much like the descendants of the Sima family. Only when I saw them did I understand why there was the Gaoping Ling Incident and the Eight Kings Rebellion!"
Liu Muzhi said sternly: "Of course we know the ins and outs of these things, but the common people below don't know. The clan status of these people can confuse people. Moreover, following the Sima family's dynasty, people who can dominate and bring blessings
There are also quite a few. Over the years, the army has marched east and west, eradicating all kinds of internal and external bandits. There are also many remnants who hold grudges. When people like Sima Guofan raised a rebellion, they went to follow them. To put it bluntly, they still want to restore the previous situation.
That kind of status where you can legally be a master and get something for nothing. There are many domestic aristocratic families who secretly communicate with them and provide assistance. Therefore, I must maintain a certain balance between you and the aristocratic family. I cannot
Let them all come to the opposite side at once, which is why I reached an agreement with Miaoyin behind your back."
Liu Yu sighed: "I have never doubted your loyalty to me. I also know that there are some things you have to do as a last resort. But Fatty, I, Liu Yu, am not unreasonable or stubborn. If the situation is irreversible, my
Ideals have to give in temporarily.”
