Bai Hu nodded and looked at Xuanwu: "Lord Xuanwu, it seems that your idea of Pilu Daoxiu as the new guard is not very realistic. That's all. Qingzhou itself doesn't have any big aristocratic families to speak of. Pilu Daoxiu
Now that Xiu is in this position, he has almost become a person hated by the Han people in Qingzhou, and no one will cooperate with him. Our idea of controlling the Shandong people by controlling Pilu Daoxiu is impossible to achieve.
Yes, it’s better to give up as soon as possible.”
Xuanwu nodded: "Then in Qingzhou, let Pilu Daoxiu temporarily appease and communicate with other big clans and spread the word for the court's new policies. At the same time, we will gradually insert our nephews into it, and use the people of Wu, Jiangzhou, and Yuzhou to
The land was traded with the local nobles, leading them to hand over their estates and move their families south, while our nephews followed suit and took over the land. In twenty or thirty years, we turned Qingzhou into a territory under our own control. This plan,
You have no objection."
Bai Hu said with a smile: "This is the Wen Zhan you are talking about. I have no objection. As for the Wu Zhan, is it like wiping out Han Fan and sealing off the frontiers, killing other disobedient families on the charge of rebellion, or is it because others want to
How about wiping out a family and then annexing its land?"
Xuanwu stroked his long beard with satisfaction and said: "Yes, that's it, and the first target of such a target is Pilu Daoxiu. Their Pilu family has deep roots in Qingzhou, and they have always been the pioneers in luring wolves into the house.
, if we want to separate ourselves and stand on our own after that, we will be very active. We should not keep such a family in Qingzhou. We would rather let a family like the Yuan family, who has recently arrived from outside, have the right to cooperate."
Bai Hu nodded: "I understand what you mean, and I agree with this. Okay, let's forget about Qingzhou's affairs, let's talk about the subsequent arrangements, Tao Yuanming, I think it is still necessary to become one of us, because
Tao Yuanming is probably aware of our existence. Liu Tingyun should have some special relationship with him. It cannot be as simple as just working together once. It is more likely that Liu Tingyun is also rebellious against the Tiandao Alliance, so she needs to win over Tao Yuanming.
As an ally, the promise given to Tao Yuanming by such a person is probably on behalf of the family. So far, all Tao Yuanming's demands do not seem to be for the purpose of cultivating immortality or the like, but for the so-called interests of the gentry. I think
, he probably still wants to join the underworld."
Xuanwu smiled slightly: "What Mr. Baihu means is that Tao Yuanming didn't join the Black Hand Universe last time just because the Black Hand Universe at that time was not worth the risk for him to join?"
Bai Hu said sternly: "Yes, but through the last guard and give-and-take, he also successfully made friends with Liu Yi. Although Liu Yi's power is not as strong as before, it can still be roped in and used to fight against Liu Yu.
, can even be said to be the only candidate. My plan is to recruit Tao Yuanming as the guard, and use Liu Yi as the foreign aid, and our own nephew to run the three places of Wudi, Jiangbei, and Qingzhou. Only in this way can we cooperate with Liu Yi in the future.
Yu Fenting resists and is no longer subject to him."
Qinglong frowned: "Why, you still want to recruit Liu Yi as a helper? This is too risky."
Bai Hu smiled slightly and said: "This is not a risk, but a very good move. Liu Yi happily accepted the position of Bai Hu of the fake Black Hand Qiankun last time, which shows that he really wants to join our organization. If there is a chance, he can
With us, he will definitely be shocked and beg for it, because he will be very sure that we can really help him succeed and surpass Liu Yu."
Xuanwu gritted his teeth and said solemnly: "We can't let Liu Yi join us. If he knows that we have created a fake mafia to deceive him for so many years, he will definitely kill us."
Bai Hu nodded: "Yes, so I don't plan to recruit Liu Yi to join us, but use Tao Yuanming. If Tao Yuanming can recruit Liu Yi as a helping hand outside the mafia, he can help us. After all,
, Liu Yi can still command the troops and guard one side in the future, and will become our spokesperson in the army. If Tao Yuanming joins us, he will abandon Yu Yue without hesitation, switch to our Wu family, and win over Liu Yi for us
, to restrict Liu Yu, this is what I value most."
Qinglong said coldly: "Tao Yuanming is not trustworthy, and he is too ambitious. You said you wanted Tao Yuanming to join us, but how do you ensure that Tao Yuanming will not backfire on us?"
Bai Hu laughed: "If the three of us together can't even deal with Tao Yuanming, then what's the point of the existence of our organization? Lord Qinglong, are you afraid of this?"
A trace of anger flashed in Qinglong's eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "How could I be afraid of Tao Yuanming? I mean, we can't take the risk of exposing the organization to accept a Tao Yuanming with unknown origins, otherwise, if he rises in the future,
When someone is rebellious or refuses to join us, we have to deal with him according to the rules of the organization. But even if we deal with him, he may make us public. At that time, Liu Yu will be like pardoning the fake mafia.
Are you going to let us go like that?"
Bai Hu said calmly: "Master Qinglong, I don't think we need to worry so much. Tao Yuanming is not a fool. He wants to separate Jingzhou and Jiangzhou by himself. Yu Yue is not enough, far from enough, and Liu Yi did not catch it this time.
If he has the opportunity to go out with the army to perform meritorious service, he will definitely take the initiative to request to go out to control the major states, mainly Jingzhou. This is also our previous consensus, so after taking advantage of Yu Yue, Tao Yuanming will turn to form an alliance with Liu Yi, and Liu Yi and Yu
Yue has always had grudges. In the past, he reluctantly cooperated for the sake of the fake mafia. In the future, he will definitely fall out completely in order to compete for territory. The old and new grudges will be settled together. As for Tao Yuanming's choice, I think it is self-evident."
"But if Tao Yuanming had no other external help and only colluded with Liu Yi who eliminated Yu Yue, he would not have much chance of winning. The more he wanted to separate Jingzhou, the more he would force Liu Yu to get rid of them earlier, because Liu Yu
Yu will definitely mobilize the whole country for the Northern Expedition, and will never allow another confrontation between Jing and Yang. If anyone wants to do this, whether it is an old comrade or a famous person in the world, he will not let it go."
Xuanwu nodded: "So what Mr. Baihu means is that if we recruit Tao Yuanming to join the gang, we can expand our power to Jingzhou and Jiangzhou, and at the same time let Tao Yuanming contact Liu Yi. But in this way, they will be faster and more powerful."
They are obviously trying to separate Jingzhou, so aren't they afraid that Liu Yu will attack them?"
Bai Hu smiled slightly: "Just don't give Liu Yu an excuse to attack. With Liu Yi here, he can sit in Jingzhou in the name of stabilizing Jingzhou and even guarding against Lu Zongzhi and Qiao Shu. And with our help, Tao Yuanming can come to serve in the imperial court.
Only in this way will they become one with us completely, and Liu Yu will no longer be able to send troops to exterminate them." (End of Chapter)
