Liu Daogui was silent for a long time and sighed: "It seems that these newly conquered places do not regard Da Jin as their own country. In their eyes, perhaps Da Jin's army and our Beifu soldiers are not here to protect them, but
They are invaders like the Huru, massacring and ruling their foreign enemies. If you want to implement your brother's ideas in the world, the resistance is not ordinary. So, you only kill the culprits and scare other powerful people. This time you are here
Does Jingzhou want the same treatment for Tao Yuanming?"
Liu Muzhi's expression became very solemn: "Tao Yuanming is far more troublesome than Han Fan and Feng Yi, because he does not only engage in such incitement in his hometown, but also in all places within the Jin Dynasty
, especially when sending slaves to implement the New Deal, or doing these things in newly occupied areas, it will make the people we have newly subdued with great difficulty, and the places where we want to try new laws and regulations go crazy, and his methods must be
Much more dangerous."
Liu Daogui gritted his teeth: "He is the one who goes around writing essays and poems about the sufferings of the people, and goes everywhere to write memorials or elegy for the fallen soldiers, and then pretends to be asking for life for the people, resisting the war and truce, it makes him look like
He is the conscience of Jin Dynasty, he is the one who wholeheartedly seeks the welfare of the people, right?"
Liu Muzhi nodded: "Yes, in comparison, you and I, and your elder brother, we have all become tyrants and traitors who are militaristic, overjoyed in success, and don't care about the life and death of the people, and want to drive the people to the battlefield.
, or they taxed them violently and made the people miserable, just to achieve their own fame. This time the demon thieves rebelled, so many people joined them in just one year, it cannot be said that it has nothing to do with these daily propaganda.
"
Speaking of this, Liu Muzhi curled up his lips: "Because the people of Wudi have experienced the Sun En Rebellion, they no longer believe the lies of these demons wearing the robes of heavenly masters. But in Jiangzhou, Xiangzhou, and even
Places like Yuzhou have experienced post-war reconstruction over the years, and the people who pay taxes and levies are disgusted with us deep down in their hearts. After all, these places did not fight many wars before, but after we succeeded in establishing Yiyi, for the Northern Expedition
As a result, some additional taxes will be collected in these places to prepare for the Northern Expedition."
"When Liu Xile and He Wuji were in charge of Yuzhou and Jiangzhou, in order to make contributions and fight, they recruited many stragglers and arrogant generals who were scattered in previous wars. These people were originally deserters or soldiers.
Bandits and military discipline are difficult to control, and there are even cases where people pretend to be bandits to rob rich and powerful people, and kidnap the children of ordinary people. These things have greatly damaged the image of our imperial officers and soldiers, and the soldiers of Beifu, and also made us lose the public support in these places.
It’s not very stable.”
Liu Daogui closed his eyes and murmured: "I have heard about this a few years ago, and I have also privately advised Brother Xile and Brother Wuji, but they also said that post-war reconstruction will be full of waste.
The food and grass allocated by the imperial court alone is not enough to maintain a large army that can conquer the Northern Hu and pacify the demon bandits. They also sarcastically said that I occupy the land of Jingzhou and there are many households, but Yuzhou and Jiangzhou do not have this strength.
They can't control some of the activities of raising food, grass and ordnance by themselves, unless I, here in Jingzhou, allocate food, grass and ordnance to them, and when it comes to this, there is nothing I can do to persuade them."
"Moreover, many of the officials in counties and counties in Jiangzhou and Yuzhou are children of aristocratic families. They are still the same as before. They only serve as officials for one term and cause harm to one party. They only care about plundering the people's fat and anointing, thinking about donating food and using their merits to gain merit.
After getting a title and then using the title as an official, you can get back the capital, invade people's land, bully men and dominate women. As the chief official of the imperial court, you should be familiar with these things."
Liu Muzhi smiled bitterly and said: "If the governors of the major states and the generals of the legions can withstand the pressure like you, not even a son of aristocratic family will be allowed to advance, or can restrain their subordinates, someone like Wang Zhenzhi can be considered incorruptible.
The children of the aristocratic family are officials, so I don't have to worry about so many difficult things. Wei Shunzhi ran away from the battle and left his companions alone. On the surface, it was a military problem, but the root cause was that he had been an official in Jiangzhou for a long time.
, was dragged into the water by those officials of the aristocratic family, and became greedy for life, fearful of death, and greedy for pleasure. His Wei family had a fortune, dozens of wives and concubines, and countless antiques and treasures at home. When we finally checked his family's property, we ate all of it.
Surprised."
Liu Daogui gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "What a pity. Thinking about the original brother Shunzi, he was a good brother who went through life and death. I didn't expect that he would become like this after being an official for several years. I don't know what he will do after his death.
How can you go to see Brother Rabbit!"
Liu Muzhi sighed: "It is meaningless to lament these things now. In fact, we are not as popular and supported by the people as we thought before. On the one hand, we must strengthen ourselves in the future and try not to let brothers who have military backgrounds
Being seduced by wealth and honor, they have become the people we hated most in the past. On the other hand, if the children of aristocratic families have no real achievements, try not to give them real jobs, especially if they cannot be allowed to serve as local officials and hold power. We would rather give them a higher title.
Let him stay at home. Another point is that we must not let people like Tao Yuanming come back to stir up trouble and make the people turn against us."
Liu Daogui murmured: "I understand what you mean, but to be honest, this is difficult. The more you do this, the more people will think that we are avenging private revenge. If we cannot solve the problem, we will solve the person who raised the problem. In this way, as long as
It will push the people even more against us. What's more, we don't have enough evidence to prove that these poems and songs that incite the people to fight against the court were written by Tao Yuanming. Only those poems signed by him are mostly about his own indulgence.
Landscapes, the trivial matters of returning to the countryside, how can you rely on these to kill people?"
Liu Muzhi said bitterly: "I can conclude that this person has a very strong anti-reconnaissance ability, and there will be a powerful organization behind him to help him complete all this. He is by no means a simple pastoral poet. This time he is in trouble.
Among thieves, if we don’t take this opportunity to get rid of him, there will be no chance in the future. But this time, he must have escaped with Xu Daofu. We can’t catch him yet. Otherwise, I will
You can kill him. Daogui, tell me the truth, is Tao Yuanming here with you now?"
Liu Daogui shook his head: "Fat man, I don't need to lie to you, let alone turn against you because of Tao Yuanming. I have told you very clearly how I was injured by the arrow. I have been in a coma these days.
How can you protect Tao Yuanming among others? Otherwise, you can ask Wang Zhenzhi, maybe Tao Yuanming falls into his hands." ()
