The laughter of the generals stopped suddenly. They did not expect that Tao Yuanming could still retort in this situation, but Tao Yuanming's voice still echoed in the palace: "Since the end of the Later Han Dynasty, the world has been in chaos, and all the tribes in Jingzhou have
The people fled into the mountains one after another to survive. The so-called Shanyue refers to the general name for the people who went into the mountains to survive from the late Han Dynasty to the Three Kingdoms period, from Jingzhou to Jiangzhou and then to Wuyue. They may not necessarily be foreign barbarians, just like my Peach Blossom Spring.
The people recorded in the diary entered the mountains at the end of the Qin Dynasty and did not know that there were Han people. Regardless of the Wei and Jin Dynasties, they are what everyone calls the Xi people. In fact, they are all Han people like you."
"It's just that if you stay in the mountains for a long time, the Han people who later live in the plains will mistakenly think that you are a foreign country. This is a big misunderstanding. Now, we Xi people have also come out of the mountains and begun to serve as officials and generals in the Jin Dynasty.
There will be more people of the same clan coming out later. You are from Wudi in Yangzhou, and many of them are from Jingkou. They may not settle down in this land of Jingzhou. They will have to go back sooner or later, and the local soldiers and horses in Jingzhou will still be mainly Jingzhou people.
, we Xi people who have come out of the mountain will take on the important task of defending our hometown, Army Lord Luo, don’t you think so?"
Luo Longsheng laughed and nodded: "Exactly, the place in Jingzhou. If even us Jingzhou natives don't come to defend it, who can we expect? It is for this reason that I was transferred from Yongzhou to Jingzhou to defend our homeland.
Liu Pushe, I hope you can fulfill my wish."
Liu Muzhi, who had been silent just now, nodded: "Since Lord Luo has a reason to return to his hometown, I can't stop him. General Lu, I think this is the best. Your Lu family and Lord Luo have also cooperated for ten years.
More than 20 years ago, as you said, you and Master Luo are brothers. Now that they are going back to their hometown, everyone can get together and disperse. If Commander Luo brought his old troops from Jingzhou, if I want to go back to Jingzhou with him,
Don't stop him and let him bring him back. If the Yongzhou officers and soldiers are transferred to his army and don't want to go to Jingzhou, they can return to your subordinates. Since General Yu Yue has transferred people to you, he should give you the corresponding food, grass and weapons in return. In this way
With all due respect to my kindness, what do you think?"
Lu Gui sighed: "Since Lord Luo has made up his mind to leave, it will be useless if I try to stop him. It will also make others laugh. However, now that the autumn harvest in Yongzhou has ended, Hou Qin and Sima in the north will
The invasion threat from traitors such as Chu Zhi and Sima Guofan has been lifted. However, there are still several counties in the northeast of Yongzhou and Changshe in northwest Henan that are occupied by these traitors. My father gave me an order.
, you want me to expel and defeat these rebels and solve the future troubles as much as possible. This requires Liu Pushe’s order and consent."
Liu Muzhi said softly "Oh": "The demon thieves have not yet been quelled. If you lead the army to fight against these Sima traitors again, it may trigger a war with the Later Qin Dynasty, which is not good."
Lu Gui said in a deep voice: "This time the demon thieves made trouble, Later Qin took advantage of it and sent two armies, Huan Qian and Gou Lin, to invade Yongzhou and Jingzhou. Later, he ordered Sima Guofan and Sima Chuzhi to cooperate with tens of thousands of Central Plains Qin troops.
Entering western Henan, waiting for an opportunity to annex the land of Huainan, they have actually started a war with us. If Hu Xia hadn't defeated the Qin army in the north of the mountains behind, forcing the main force of the Qin army to return to Guanzhong, I'm afraid we would have been in Yuzhou by now.
Even Yongzhou is at war with the Qin army."
“The two evil dogs Sima Guofan and Sima Chuzhi even roamed the border between the two countries, invading Yongzhou and Yuzhou from time to time, killing our officials, taking our people captive, and attracting domestic bandits and thieves to join them.
It has gradually grown in size. If it is not eliminated, it will become an endless border trouble for the Jin Dynasty. Instead of defending the homeland and being beaten passively, the Yongzhou Army should take the initiative and take advantage of the absence of the main force of the Later Qin Dynasty to attack Sima Guofan and
Sima Chuzhi's rebels are wiped out. As long as they can kill a few leaders and disperse the rest, even if Sima Guofan and Sima Chuzhi escape by chance, they can defeat their party members and weaken their arrogance, so that they will not dare to invade easily again.
In Yuzhou and Yongzhou, once these evil thieves no longer have a foothold in the Jin Dynasty, they will be scattered like birds and beasts sooner or later."
Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "So, are the Yongzhou soldiers and horses not preparing to participate in the next war against the demon bandits? Are they preparing to clear the border troubles in the northern area for the Jin Dynasty?"
Lu Gui curled his lips and said: "Yongzhou is in the northwest of Dajin. If we go to the Dajiang area to fight against demons and thieves, spend time on expeditions, and weaken Yongzhou's defense power, it would be a bit outweighing the gains. Since Lord Luo is willing to lead his troops,
If Ma goes to work for General Yu Yue, it means that Yongzhou has contributed to the subsequent efforts to fight against thieves, General Yu, don't you think so?"
Yu Yue nodded quickly and said: "Yes, yes, it means that Yongzhou has sent out an elite army, and I will command it to fight against the thieves. Liu Pushe, Major General Lu is right. He put down traitors like Sima Guofan in the north. Likewise,
It is also a contribution to the country and avoids the possibility of the two groups of thieves joining together. I am willing to finance 500,000 stones of food and grass and 2,000 troops of armor as a token of my gratitude."
Lu Gui said calmly: "General Yu, no need. We in Yongzhou have enough money, food, troops and horses to cope with this war. Besides, this time the demon thieves were defeated in Ma Tou, and our army also collected a lot of the demon thieves' baggage.
, my father-in-law has issued an order, asking me to lead the army attacking the demon thieves to the northeast to pursue Sima Guofan's troops. Now that Luo Jun is mainly leaving the team, although I am reluctant to part with him, I will respect his wishes.
, I just hope that Liu Pushe can support our actions and allow me to handle the seizures in the war and collect prisoners on my own."
Liu Muzhi pondered for a moment and said: "That's right. However, you can temporarily take charge of the recovered counties and counties, which belong to Yuzhou. After the court decides on the candidate for the governor of Yuzhou, we will deal with the delivery matter with you. Yongzhou's
You can manage the counties directly after you regain them without asking us for instructions."
Lu Gui asked: "Then what if I pursue Sima Guofan, enter the territory of Later Qin, and occupy the territory of Later Qin?"
Liu Muzhi raised his brows: "It is okay to pursue and enter the Hou Qin Dynasty, but after completing the combat mission, it must be withdrawn. Don't give the Hou Qin Dynasty an excuse to start a war. Now after all, we have to take the elimination of the demon thieves as our primary goal. It is not appropriate
At the same time, we fought against the Huru and Qiang thieves."
A trace of disappointment flashed in Lu Gui's eyes: "Then we have to be passively beaten all the time and be restrained by Sima Guofan and Sima Chuzhi?"
Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "Xiang Tooth, this does not depend on us, but on you. If you act quickly enough and kill these two traitors directly, wouldn't there be no future troubles?" (End of Chapter)
