Liu Yu smiled and said, "It's just that, Xie Hui, you once said that this kid has his own ideas. Are you not afraid that he will use his credit to gain power in the future and compete with you for power?"
Liu Muzhi said calmly: "If he really has this ability, it will be a blessing to the country. If he goes on a mission to Baekje this time and can get a clear picture of the situation in Baekje, Silla, Japan, and Goguryeo, then
You have made great contributions to the country. With such a talented person assisting you in the future, I can retire with peace of mind. I wish I could."
Liu Yu nodded: "Then let Xie Hui return to Goguryeo with Gao Yunyan's fleet and leave for Baekje on the way, right?"
Liu Muzhi nodded: "Yes, we have to bring the banners used to call for a truce. I'm not too worried about the Baekje people daring to mess around, but it's hard to say about Japan. Maybe they will use
As an excuse to attack the Goguryeo fleet, we also attacked the Jin envoy ship."
Liu Yu frowned: "Is there any way to avoid this?"
Liu Muzhi sighed: "There is no good way. After the army retreated south, it turned out that the Xie family had placed it in the Donglai area, and the fleet that was preparing to evacuate the Murong tribe back to western Liaoning would also go back with them. You will fight against the demon thieves later.
We need this fleet, and besides, the demon thieves have a powerful navy and can sail far into the sea, so we have to guard against the possibility of them sending one of them to sneak attack Wu by sea or even land in Qingzhou."
Liu Yu took a breath: "Can they have this ability?"
Liu Muzhi said sternly: "The ability to conquer Guangzhou from Wu to the sea and across thousands of miles proved their ability. However, this would require them to bring in the most experienced sailors and boatmen who had followed them all the way.
The Three Wu Old Thieves can be used on sea routes and can be dealt with head-on. I don’t think they will use this trick on a large scale, but if you can withstand their attacks on Yuzhou and Jiankang on land, you can do it.
Consider this strategy and send a fleet to Guangzhou to raid the base of the demon thieves."
Liu Yu frowned: "I'm afraid we don't have such a force for the time being. If we have this force, we must first consider opening up Jingzhou and getting in touch with Daogui."
Liu Muzhi curled his lips and said, "This is just a suggestion from me for your reference. If your war progresses smoothly, after the situation in Qingzhou stabilizes, I can ask Xiang Mi to lead his army to fight westward to expel or eliminate the entrenched troops in Qingzhou.
As long as Sima Guofan's troops in the northwest of Yuzhou can be driven away, the eastern part of the Central Plains will be opened. We can open up the connection with Yongzhou via Runan and Liangjun. If we advance, we can take Luoyang of the Central Plains, and if we retreat, we can support Yongzhou and Jingzhou.
, completely encircle the demon thieves from the north."
Liu Yu laughed: "I'm afraid it's not enough to rely on Tieniu's more than 10,000 troops. Besides, Qingzhou cannot do without his troops. If we really want to break through Yongzhou and seize the Yanzhou area of Liang County, it is best to start from
Yuzhou attacks. When the time comes, I can consider giving the credit for the capture of Luoyang to Xi Le. You can add this to the letter you gave him. If he can cooperate with the action, Sizhou and the Central Plains will be handed over to him in the future.
"
Liu Muzhi frowned: "Give the Central Plains to Liu Yi? In this way, you are giving him the power of the Northern Expedition. He can go north to attack Bingzhou, and he can also go west to attack Guanzhong. Isn't this too much?
「
Liu Yu said calmly: "If we don't offer such conditions, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to sit still. Now, in order to maintain stability, we must not let Liu Xile lead his army to take the initiative to fight against the demon thieves before my army returns. If he loses, then
There is no danger to defend Jiankang, and even my army may not be able to save Jiankang."
Liu Muzhi sighed: "Everything is up to you, but I still have to say that Liu Yi's ambition is difficult to control. You'd better not give in without principle or bottom line. Once he truly takes control of the military power, he will fight against you."
, with his method of rewarding his subordinates by verbally allowing plunder and conferring titles, I am afraid many people will follow him, which we have discussed before."
Liu Yu sighed: "This is also an expedient measure. After all, it is Xile who has taken the initiative now. He can't take action. It's his whim. I can't restrain him. I can only ask for discussion. You'd better use humble words in your letter."
Some even call him brother and me brother in my name."
Liu Muzhi nodded: "I understand. I will go back and revise a letter and send it directly to Liu Yi, and ask Liu Cui to bring the letter to show respect."
Liu Yu said seriously: "Starting tomorrow, the army will break camp and go back. Have all the arrangements been made?"
Liu Muzhi said with a smile: "Everything is completely arranged. The Guanggu city wall has been leveled and all the wells have been filled. At Wulongkou, we performed rituals to liberate the souls of the dead, and arranged for Xianbei prisoners to be killed.
, the bones buried in the spring are reburied, and the resentment of the wronged souls here should be slowly dissipated. If it were not to completely eliminate the possibility of rebellion in Qilu land, it would really be possible to rebuild an important town. "
Liu Yu shook his head: "If you think it is safer here, you can also rebuild a city here as a state government. There is a plague this time, and Qingzhou may not be peaceful. You'd better be as safe as possible, especially in the iron
Before the cattle department recovers."
Liu Muzhi waved his hand: "Forget it, the strongest defense in Qingzhou is not the solid city wall, but the people's hearts. Ordinary Han people do not really want to be attached to the local powerful clan forever, but really want to separatist rule and cause chaos.
Yes, these are the big families. I will attack the Han family and the Feng family again at the appropriate time. In the past, I will try my best to stabilize them."
Liu Yu said seriously: "Everything is decided by you. You don't need to ask me for instructions. If things really get serious, just say that you are acting under my secret order and let me solve it for you."
Liu Muzhi sighed: "Having said that, I will not shirk responsibility from you. I will arrange for your Xiao family's nephews to return to their hometown of Lanling to develop their power in the name of recognizing their ancestors and returning to the clan.
At the critical moment, my family is still reliable, and I also want to put Liu Yizhen and Hu Daoan there temporarily. "
Liu Yu frowned: "Lanling? Is it safe there?"
Liu Muzhi curled his lips: "I will definitely change their names and place them in a secret and safe place. You should know who the person who wants Yizhen's life the most in this world is."
Liu Yu felt a pain in his heart and closed his eyes: "Will the grievances of the previous generation continue to the children? Fatty, I don't want this."
Liu Muzhi sighed: "Then sit in that seat as soon as possible. You have the final say in everything."
Liu Yu opened his eyes and walked towards the distance without looking back: "We all have to hurry up, Fatty, Qingzhou, please!"
