Chapter 955
When Odin China was struggling with the plateau enclave, the instigators were also having a hard time.
Unexpectedly captured an enclave and once again received public praise from CCTV, but as the deputy city lord Yi Feng subconsciously thought, can the Zhulu leader take care of so many scattered and unstable territories? After Yu Buzhi had a brief exchange with Xu Shu, he couldn't help but
It does not acknowledge a cruel objective reality: Zhululing’s true strength has lagged far behind its expansion scale.
For a long time, the territory has been protecting itself by demolishing the east wall to repair the west wall, and borrowing external forces. It has tried its best to maintain the situation. During the several wars it encountered, it was mostly by deploying troops from other strongholds to avert danger.
If it weren't for the backing of teleportation array technology, I'm afraid it would have collapsed long ago.
There are signs that overexpansion must stop, at least for the time being.
Zhulu Ling should be more stable.
Yu Buzhi is also a person who can afford to take things and let them go. He said flatly: "In this case, give up this stronghold."
"I'm afraid it won't work just to give up." Xu Shu expressed his rare direct objection to the lord's words.
"Why?"
Xu Shu looked at Yu Buzhi with a strange expression on his face, as if he hoped that Yu Buzhi was joking, but Yu Buzhi looked surprised and innocent, so Xu Shu realized that the lord seemed to be really unaware, and sighed:
"Although this land was captured by our army, it has belonged to the Han Dynasty and is the territory of the Han Dynasty. The imperial court has not taken over it. If it is abandoned at this time, it will be taken back by the Qiang people. This is equivalent to losing the city and ceding land to foreigners. Not only the imperial court will be punished, but also the people of the Han Dynasty.
They will also regard us as traitors..."
"puff!"
Yu Buzhi was stunned on the spot, and a mouthful of old blood spurted out.
What a joke!
Xu Shu's words are by no means alarmist.
Since the founding of the Han Dynasty, it has overthrown the powerful Xiongnu, dismembered the Xianbei who succeeded the Xiongnu, and opened up the Hexi Corridor to reach the Western Regions. Although there have been setbacks along the way, in general, foreign wars have prevailed. "One Han conquered five
The pride and glory of "Hu" are deep in the bones. Perhaps because of this, the Han family, from the court to the common people, has a particularly strong aversion to defeat in foreign wars, and is not very tolerant of soldiers who lose in foreign wars.
Although the Han dynasty was in turmoil, the emperor's decrees could not reach Guandong, the princes from all walks of life failed to take the central government to account, and the national strength was not as good as before, but the attitude of the Han dynasty and the public towards foreign wars did not change significantly. How could the celestial dynasty lose to the barbarians?
In short, the victor is a hero and the loser is a bear. And bears are also divided into levels. Losing soldiers and generals will probably be scolded and humiliated. Losing a city and losing territory is definitely an unforgivable and serious crime.
Domestic princes attack each other, killing each other in rivers of blood, and cities change flags. These are all the household affairs of the Han Dynasty. It doesn't matter who is in charge of one-third of an acre of land, and the ancestral property is still there. However, foreign wars are different. Who dares to lose Banyu's land?
He is a sinner through the ages. No matter how great his achievements are, it will be difficult to wash away the shame and humiliation of losing his land.
People can die, but the earth cannot be lost!
There is no way, the flower growers are from a farming civilization, and they love the land very deeply...
In such a big environment, losing the country will inevitably become a target of public criticism.
Yu Buzhi is a prince, but Zhulu Leader is surrounded by powerful enemies. Those hostile NPC princes will most likely make a big fuss out of this matter. There are also Avengers in the dark who are ready to make a move. The price Zhulu Leader may pay for this in the future is simply
It is difficult to estimate, and probably even difficult to clean up. On the other hand, the benefits brought by the title of [Tuotu Yingjie] to Yu Buzhi are becoming more and more obvious. This title is equivalent to a pass for him to walk in the NPC world, and a halo of body protection.
, supreme glory, you can gain respect and admiration wherever you go. What the NPC respects is his feat of opening up territory for the Han Dynasty. Taking the initiative to abandon the plateau stronghold, taking the initiative to lose the city and the land, the NPC world's evaluation and perception of Yu Buzhi are bound to be
decline, with far-reaching consequences.
After thinking about this, Yu Buzhi burst into tears.
Nimei! I threw away the land I conquered and turned out to be a traitor. Is this what I suffered for myself?
What a cheating rule!
It's just a change of hands, do you want to be so serious?
It's all my fault that I was confused and chose to occupy...
"In that case, we don't just give up and wait for the Qiang people to fight back here. We go deep in alone. With such a small force, we can't resist the Qiang people's counterattack. Does it make sense?" Yu Buzhi blinked his eyes and said, this guy has no idea.
If the turn is not slow, we can't abandon the defense, but if we can't defeat it, we can always retreat, right? He has even thought out the details of Xu Ying's story: as soon as the Qiang people come, they shout a few times, fire a few arrows and run away, and the troops follow the trend and return to the court; or simply let them go
The Qiang prisoners regained their freedom faster and safer. This is a great plan...
"Lord, think about Li Shaoqing."
Xu Shu's words directly made Yu Buzhi's heart sink to the bottom.
Li Shaoqing is Li Ling.
Li Ling was the grandson of Li Guang, the famous flying general of the Western Han Dynasty. He was ordered by Emperor Wu to conquer the Xiongnu and went deep into the hinterland of the Xiongnu. With 5,000 infantry, he fought with 80,000 Xiongnu cavalry at Junji Mountain. He fought alone against tens of thousands of troops without fear.
The wise kings of the left and right joined forces to encircle and suppress Li Ling's tribe. The Huns were killed and injured numerous times and had no time to save themselves. They also called on the common people who could shoot arrows to join the siege. Li Ling's tribe was outnumbered and fought thousands of miles away. The soldiers were facing the enemy's arrows with their bare hands.
He still fought to the death and bravely killed the enemy. His loyalty and bravery were commendable. Finally, he was forced to surrender because he was isolated and helpless. He hoped to remain useful and serve the Han Dynasty again.
Later, Emperor Wu mistakenly believed the rumor that Li Ling was training troops for the Huns. The three Yi clans, Li Ling's mother, brother, and his wife were all executed. The scholars in Longxi also felt that Li Ling could not die and affected his family. They were all loyal and loyal.
He fought for his country on the battlefield and gained countless military exploits. There were many objective reasons for Li Ling's defeat and capture. Furthermore, the achievements of Li Ling's tribe cannot be said to be unparalleled in history, and definitely not inferior to many so-called famous generals in the world. However, because of his defeat and surrender, he ended up like this.
His reputation was ruined and his family suffered a tragic fate.
The Han family's attitude toward failure in foreign wars can be understood by looking at Li Ling's experience.
"Not only do we have no right to abandon the defense, but if the Qiang invade, the Zhulu leader must also assume the responsibility of defending the land, otherwise we will become criminals of the Han Dynasty. Don't worry, my lord, as long as your subordinates are still alive, we must not let the Qiang
If someone captures this place, let alone bring shame to the lord!" Xu Shu looked solemn. Xu Shu, who was born as a ranger, had a high degree of identification with the Han Dynasty. Although he had devoted himself to the Zhulu Territory long ago and focused on the interests of the territory, the Zhulu Territory was developing steadily at the same time.
Xu Shu would not force him to expand territory for the Han Dynasty, but he was optimistic about the success.
Yu Buzhi wanted to cry but had no tears, and said after a while: "Yuan Zhi, you're not going to fight to the death here, are you?"
"It should be." Xu Shu said seriously: "My lord intends to appoint me as the captain of Bajun. Although it has not been announced yet, I should follow the self-discipline of Han ministers and encourage myself to protect the country's territory and protect my lord's honor. I am honored to do so."
, how dare you cherish yourself?"
