Kumarajiva curled his lips and said, "Then let's wait and see what Liu Yu's next move will be. If he returns to Jiankang, I will let Yao Shao attack Nanyan in an all-out way and seize Yuzhou.
Let’s grab the benefits of the territory in the north first.”
The black robe pondered for a moment, shook his head and said: "It's best not to be so eager for success. I think we can wait and see the subsequent development. Once the Qin army takes the opportunity to invade, there will be no room for relaxation with the Jin in the future. How about
, when Liu Yu and Tianshi Dao fight to the death, both sides suffer losses, and even all the defenders in Nanyan land are withdrawn, it will not be too late to send troops again. And "
At this point, he paused: "Over at Nanyan, can we take advantage of the powerful Han clan such as Han Fan and others? Last time he was sent as an envoy to the Queen of Qin, you must have had a good relationship with him."
Kumarajiva was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "Han Fan, like Qiao Zong, is a big local snake in Qilu. His family has a big business, and his forces are intertwined. In the past, even Nan Yan of the Murong family was there.
We also need to let him get three points. If we, the Qin Dynasty, want to seize Nanyan and send troops by ourselves, why bother with Han Fan? If we let him start a rebellion, it will be the same as Qiao Shu, the tail will not be lost, and we will not be of any benefit."
The black robe said calmly: "So, how long can Yao Shao's 100,000 troops stay here this time? Can they stay in Yuzhou or Qilu permanently and not return to Guanzhong?"
Kumarajiva gritted his teeth and said: "Of course that's not possible. Guanzhong is the foundation of the Qin Dynasty. It's just at your invitation. Taking advantage of the fact that the war in Guanzhong is now stable, I took the opportunity to go to Guanzhong with Hu Xia.
The 100,000 elites fighting here are just here to seek profits. If they fight here for half a year at most, they will all have to withdraw to Guanzhong. From now on, they can only rely on the Central Plains troops in Luoyang to maintain them. This is why we clearly know that Sima Guofan and Sima Chu have
Alien heart, the reason why I still have to use it.”
The black robe nodded: "That's not true. Not to mention how much his 100,000 troops will be consumed in these conquests. Even if he conquers Qilu and occupies half of Yuzhou as you wish, it is impossible to garrison him for a long time.
Needless to say, Sima Guofan and Sima Chuzhi here, with their strength, the Central Plains Qin Army in Luoyang may not even be able to protect the Changshe. The land of Qilu is not as good as here. Even two people who can hold the banner
None. The people of Qi have no feelings for the Qin Dynasty. If I send troops to attack Qilu at this time, I will be deeply hated by the local people. Even the Xianbei people left behind by Murong will never be grateful to us."
"In the end, we can only send troops. If we don't want to lose the land of Qilu, we can only cooperate with local powerful people like Liu Yu and let them defend the land of Qilu. It only belongs to Da Qin in name. Instead of waiting until the end
If you have to do that when you withdraw, it is better to send a large army to attack Qi from the beginning, instead of letting Liu Yu take the opportunity to expel the Jin army, and stand on his own in Hanfan, just like the Pilu family before. This is the most important thing for our Qin State.
Something beneficial."
Kumarajiva frowned: "But in this way, we support Sima Guofan in Yuzhou and Liu Yu in Qidi. This does not benefit us. Instead, we have two more burdens, and we have to rescue at any time.
Instead of them doing this, we might as well not send troops."
The black robe smiled slightly: "The purpose of our sending troops is not to seize land, but to take the opportunity to eliminate Nanyan. During the last battle in Guanggu, Nanyan had openly turned against us and declared war. As long as we let him relax
With that tone, sooner or later we will become his next target for the Northern Expedition. When he is at his weakest, we will find a way to join forces with you to eliminate him. Even if we cannot eliminate him, we must destroy his base for the Northern Expedition. We must not allow the Jin State to
Bordering Da Qin, he has many enemies and is surrounded by enemies on all sides. He has spent his whole life dealing with powerful enemies from all walks of life. He is already over seventy years old, how long can he live? If he is killed, Da Qin will be safe.
.No matter who succeeds Nan Yan, it is impossible for him to be as crazy about the Northern Expedition."
The black robe turned and walked towards the back door of the county government office: "I want to go to Qi Di. This time I don't feel very good, and I may not be able to kill Nan Yan. I have to start the follow-up plan in advance."
Nan Yan, dressed in military uniform and accompanied by more than ten famous generals, stood on a high slope about half a mile outside the ferry. More than a hundred guards lined up on the slope to guard. Tan Shao breathed a sigh of relief and saw
Looking at the willow trees on the bank of the river, he smiled and said: "Brother Jinu, we can go back to Dajin again."
It’s on this land, and this willow tree looks so damn familiar.”
Xuzhou, Xiapi.
Willows are fluttering, accompanied by bursts of spring breeze. It is already July and the weather is pleasant. However, there is a lively scene around the ferry. Thousands of carters are pushing wheelbarrows to unload the goods that have just been unloaded from the ship.
Bags of supplies were loaded into the car, and then they quickly ran towards a temporary military camp that was just being built eight miles away. On the other side of the road, the same empty wheelbarrow was speeding. Obviously, this was a temporary military camp that was just being built.
The baggage ordnance brought back by the Northern Expeditionary Army has been moved into this temporary camp.
Wang Zhene said with a "hehe" smile: "Brother Ah Shao, you recovered so quickly this time. We all thought you had to stay with Brother Tieniu."
Nan Yan looked at the ships in the distance with a solemn expression and said nothing.
Kumarajiva sighed: "That's the only way it can be. Okay, let's wait and see what happens next. Do you want to go back to Jiankang now, or do you want to make a decision with me here?"
A temporary military camp has been set up on the edge of Hangou. On this famous canal, hundreds of transport ships are docked on the shore. Countless civilians are shouting slogans, such as
Like ants, they shuttled between the shore and the transport ship, stepping on the wooden planks and carrying them with their shoulders and hands. They transported the heavy bags of military equipment from the ship and threw them on the ground on the shore.
Tan Shao rolled his eyes at Wang Zhene angrily: "I don't want to accompany you to him. Grandma, I only fell ill after drinking with him last time. If I stay with that stupid cow for a few more months,
We didn’t even fight the demon thief.”
Zhu Lingshi sighed: "Brother Ah Shao, don't open the pot and pick up the pot. We have lost contact with Brother Xile for half a month. I think if Brother Xile hadn't stuck to Liyang, he would have been
Is this the result?"
Having said this, Tan Shao looked at Nan Yan: "Brother Xinu, what's going on with Brother Xile? Let him take over for another month, and all our men should be able to recover from the epidemic. By then, we can kill the demons
A thief leaves nothing behind, so please leave the vanguard to me this time."
