Liu Yi looked at Liu Yu motionless for a long time before sighing softly: "Jinnu, let me tell you the truth. This time I almost fled back to Jiankang alone. After working hard for several years, I
The Yuzhou Legion was completely wiped out. Even if the demon thieves were defeated, it would be impossible to regain their previous strength. After I returned to the city, I mobilized all the underground forces and formed a guard force in Nancheng. It looked like there were ten or twenty thousand troops.
But I am no longer the same as you. Even if I defeat the demon thief and recruit his troops, I no longer have the strength to compete with you."
Liu Yu curled his lips: "Xile, I have told you a long time ago that we are the generals of the imperial court, the governors of one side, not the warlords like the Huan family who cede territory for independence and divide the country. Don't say anything.
Your soldiers and my soldiers are all soldiers and horses of the imperial court."
Liu Yi shook his head: "There are no outsiders here. We are just two brothers. We will not say such things. We are all people who have led troops for many years. Knowing that soldiers and generals know each other is the prerequisite for winning a war and the use of personnel."
The prerequisite is that if the generals and commanders under their command are not familiar with each other, and if these generals and commanders are not familiar with the soldiers under their command, how can they still fight?"
Speaking of this, Liu Yi curled up his lips: "I ran all the way back from Sangluo Prefecture. There were thousands of stragglers on the road. I didn't even try to gather them. I only took Zhao Yi and dozens of them with me. Why? Because I only believe in
, I only know these dozens of good brothers who have followed me for many years. With them, I can recruit hundreds of team commanders and brigade marshals, and I can recruit tens of thousands of troops. This time I can return to Jiankang
, I raised tens of thousands of troops in a few days, just because I used this model of old superiors and old subordinates to respond to each other and recruit people, and they usually live scattered in the city and meet with people regularly, and they only recognize this kind of old people.
boss."
"Jinnu, aren't you also an iron bull when you use it? Are old brothers like Ah Shou easy to use? Although people like Suppression of Evil, Big and Little Stones, the Shen brothers, and Ah Shao have gradually become able to take charge of their own affairs, they are still fighting against you.
You can rest assured when using the old department. You are familiar with their ability, level, and character. Even if they are released as local officials, you will know it well. This is not a matter of whether the old department should be used or not, or whether to separate the government or not, but it is human nature."
Liu Yu nodded: "What you said makes sense to a certain extent, but just like the Huan family did, when the old military departments were transferred to local officials to control each township and village, the nature is different. A war is a war.
It is easy for you to command with old troops, but if a large state, every state and county, from the county to the village is full of such subordinates, then in the end the people will only know that there are generals and not know that there is a court."
Liu Yi curled up his lips: "However, after you have achieved a title, you will use it as an official or a clerk, and then you will be disarmed and return to your fields and return to your hometown with honor. This is a rule you have set yourself. You can never take the lead in violating it."
Liu Yu sighed: "That's true, so we have to add some restrictions to this rule. We can't let the brothers in the entire army settle down in a certain place and work as officials. Otherwise, it will become like this. The old ministry controls a big state, and almost
In the case of a large county, the end will not be lost."
Liu Yi waved his hand: "These are things for later. Just like these old brothers of mine, it is reasonable to say that they are used to living in the capital and Jiankang, but after they finish fighting this time, they still have to go elsewhere, because although they used to
Although they were discharged from the army, they were still under my care and worked for me. This time, in order to defend the city, I gave away all my family's assets, and their identities were also exposed. I'm afraid it will be unsustainable to build Kangcheng here in the future.
."
Liu Yu frowned: "Do you want them to leave Jiankang and go to Wudi?"
Liu Yi shook his head: "I want to take them to Yuzhou, Jiangzhou, and Jingzhou. Let them take root in these places. Wudi is the territory of those aristocratic families and where their centuries-old foundation lies. Forcibly occupying these places will cause great conflicts.
Yes, just like this time, Xie Hun and Xi Sengshi wanted to take the opportunity to seize the Yu Yue family's property. I don't even know how to deal with such conflicts after the war."
At this point, Liu Yi frowned: "Your reaction to this matter this time is very strange. In the past, you always valued peace and avoided all kinds of conflicts. Why did you indulge Xie Hun and Xi Sengshi this time?
In doing this, do you intend to side with the Xie family and the Xi family and attack the Yu family? Just because Yu Yue joined the Black Hand Universe?"
Liu Yu curled his lips and said calmly: "If you want people to do things, you must benefit them. Xie Hun and Xi Sengshi are willing to take the initiative to recruit troops and return to their hometown to recruit troops to support the capital. We cannot let them work in vain. Yu Yue
Without receiving our order for people to fight behind enemy lines, they went on their own to fight guerrillas on the front line, and the source of their logistical supplies and intelligence support was very doubtful. They did not move closer to Liu Daogui's Jingzhou Army, or served as other
We are going to lead the Jingzhou Army to attack the enemy's key points. If Xie Hun and the others say that Yu Yue is collaborating with the enemy, they are not letting the enemy go."
"Xie Hun and Xi Sengshi will not recruit young men from their own families first. They must recruit members from other families, such as the Liu Tingyun family who are sure to be in trouble, and the suspicious Yu family. They are the first batch to recruit, those who refuse to obey and those who are hesitant.
, it can be dealt with according to national laws and confiscate his property. This is feasible at present. As for Yu Yue, if he is innocent, he will be promoted to a higher rank and given other land after his return. This is not an intentional challenge.
start their fight."
Liu Yi said coldly: "I hope what you said is consistent with what you think. Jinu, I think you have become a little different from before after coming back from Nanyan."
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "I am still the same person I was before. There is no difference between Liu Yu and Liu Yu when I joined the army with you more than 20 years ago and went to assassinate Diao Kui. It's just that I am happy with you. Now we can all say that you are far better than me."
I have not expected what I expected when I joined the army to serve the country, to hold great power, break up the soil and seal the territory, and leave a name in history. These things that I never dared to dream about before have now become a reality. I need to cherish my blessings, cherish my life, and not be ambitious. The most regretful thing is
It’s too late.”
Liu Yi looked at Liu Yu with a cold look in his eyes: "Are you warning me, or teaching me how to do something?"
Liu Yu shook his head: "I have warned you once about what happened in Wuzhuang last time, and I will not warn you a second time. This is the relationship between you and me. I can allow you to be superior to me through legitimate competition.
But I will never allow you to ruin national affairs, ruin brotherhood, or ruin the foundation we have built together for your own selfish interests."
Liu Yi gritted his teeth: "If I hadn't been thinking about these friendships and the country, why would I have gone through all the hardships and ran back to Jiankang? How could I have used the power I had hidden for many years?"
