Liu Yu was surprised: "There is such a thing? Why haven't I heard of it?"
Liu Muzhi smiled and said: "At that time, Huan Xuan came to Beijing. When you retired and returned home, you later went to lead the troops to fight against Lu Xun. At that time, you were only focused on how to fight against Huan. How could you care about these small conflicts on the northern border?
Are you interested?"
Liu Yu nodded: "That's right. Without military reports, naturally I don't know what's going on in the north. Just like this time, if Ah Shou hadn't caused such a big disturbance, I wouldn't have been able to keep an eye on Nan Yan every day. By the way,
You said that Liu should have surrendered to Batabafei, but did the Northern Wei Dynasty send troops to attack the Jin Dynasty?"
Liu Muzhi said with a smile: "What he attacked was not the Jin Dynasty, but the Chu Dynasty. I just said that Huan Xuan usurped the throne. At this time, there were people with evil intentions who took the initiative to invite foreign enemies to invade. Nan Yan because of Alan's
The reason was that they did not send troops, but the Northern Wei Dynasty did not reject anyone who came. Ba Ba Fei led 20,000 cavalry across the Yellow River to attack Zhen City. At that time, Jiangbei's defense was in chaos because Sun Wuzhong was killed, even if he originally stayed in Pengcheng
Most of Huan Xuan's troops and horses were transferred to Guangling, so Liu Gai was left alone and had no help, so he thought of this move."
Liu Yu frowned: "Then why didn't Baba Fei directly attack Zhencheng or even Pengcheng, but allowed Liu Gai to continue to occupy this place?"
Liu Muzhi said seriously: "Because the Northern Wei Dynasty does not really have the strength to cross the Yellow River and expand southward. For some unknown reason, the Northern Wei Dynasty has been unable to expand beyond the Yellow River in these years. Even after winning the Battle of Chaibi, it did not take the opportunity to invade Guanzhong."
, it’s the same this time. Perhaps, only your good Aqian can explain this. But in my opinion, the root cause is probably the emergence of a powerful enemy like Rouran in the north of the desert. Tuoba Gui did not dare to go too deep into the Central Plains.
The ethnic group relocated, and the support of the Han people in Hebei for them was not as good as when they first entered the customs ten years ago. The bad impact of the killing of Lu Pu and Cui Cheng was too great, and Tuoba Gui also understood that the Han people still have the power of non-violence.
Cooperation is not like relying on killing people to establish authority on the grassland."
"Last time Ah Shou and others were in trouble and fled north to Huaibei, Gao Su's younger brother Gao Changqing, and the old Beifu generals Yuan Qianzhi, Liu Shou, Guo Gong and others were also with them, but these old generals did not follow them
They went to Nanyan together, but fled to the Later Qin Dynasty. At that time, Yao Xing asked them about the situation in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Yuan Qianzhi said that Huanxuan was a usurper, and that seizing power did not rely on head-on strength or external achievements, but only on
Liu Laozhi's defection is just a sign of dissatisfaction in the Jin Dynasty, and he has no faith and kindness, so he will be destroyed by others."
Liu Yu said with a smile: "General Yuan is right. These are all veterans of the uncle generation, but it is a pity that Huan Xuan forced them to defect to Fan State. If there is a chance, I will still find a way to make them
They come back."
Liu Muzhi shook his head: "Jinnu, these old generals who have been driven away, you'd better not let them come back, at least not now, otherwise it will be difficult to resettle these uncles when they return to Beifu. If you don't give them power,
It's uncomfortable. The brothers are uncomfortable now that they are given the power. This principle is the same as when Ah Shou comes back, but Ah Shou is your equal and can be easily talked to. It's different for these seniors."
Liu Yu sighed: "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. These uncles left the Northern Wei Dynasty nearby and wanted to go to Guanzhong. I'm afraid it's because Tuoba Gui was cruel and warlike, and he was ruthless to the Han family in Hebei.
, kill them if you say so, it will chill their hearts."
Liu Muzhi nodded: "Exactly, that's what Yao Xing asked Yuan Qianzhi, and his answer was the same as yours. After Tuoba Gui heard this, he sighed, so he changed his question to the Han family in Hebei
He got close to him and even pardoned the people of Lu Pu and Cui Cheng. I think that the reason why he did not expand in recent years was because of internal instability and constant rebellions on the grasslands. Only by stabilizing the Central Plains first and winning the hearts of the scholars and families can he have the remaining strength.
Rely on these products from the Central Plains to appease the grassland tribes, but you must learn from his lesson. No matter how much you dislike the high-ranking family in Jiankang City, you cannot be like him and kill at will without any reason. After all,
Before a new order is established, we will still have to rely on this system to operate."
Liu Yu said seriously: "Thank you for your reminder, I will definitely pay attention to this aspect. Then Liu should have escaped disaster by surrendering to the Northern Wei Dynasty, and later retreated. I remember that Huan Xuan also sent Yang Mu to lead the army.
When the troops went north, mainly the surrendered troops of the Xifu Army and part of the original Su Guards of the capital were stationed in Pengcheng, and it was at this time that Yanzhi transferred from the original Su Guards back to his hometown."
Liu Muzhi nodded and said: "Yes, Yang Muzhi is the descendant of the famous Taiyang clan in the Western Jin Dynasty. His ancestors include the famous Western Jin general Yang Hu, and the two queens of the Western Jin Dynasty Yang Huiyu. Oh, this is the wife of Sima Shi
, and later she was honored as the Queen Mother, not a strict queen. But the famous Queen of the Six Dynasties Yang Xianrong was genuine."
Liu Yu sneered: "It is because Yang Xianrong was greedy for life and feared death, and he bent down to serve many Hu emperors, which also affected the family. The once famous Taiyang clan had almost no high-ranking officials or generals in our Eastern Jin Dynasty.
Up to this point, Yang Muzhi was just a general of the Su Wei Army. He had been taking orders from Sima Shangzhi for a long time. After Huanxuan entered the capital, he sent him far away to guard Pengcheng City. Going to the north at this time was definitely not a good idea.
Zhongyong, I'm afraid he was worried about Liu Gai's so-called false surrender last time and sent a partial force to monitor him from behind. Fatty, which one, Liu Gai or Yang Muzhi, do you think is more like the mole of the dark forces?"
Liu Muzhi curled his lips: "It's difficult to find out at once. My eyeliner has been staring at them. It seems that they don't have any evil intentions. However, they have been supporting troops in the local area for a while.
Such people are most likely to rebel against the separatist regime. As long as the court orders them to be recalled and replaced by someone else, whether they are loyal or traitorous, it can be seen at a glance that the real insiders will immediately rebel against the separatist regime and recruit foreign aid.
Loyal and loyal men will resign and return to Beijing. However, this is a critical period. The north is unstable. At this time, generals are changing at the last moment. I am afraid that something big will happen. In my opinion, it is better to withdraw the local garrison and return to the south of the Yangtze River. This way, the internal
Even if ghosts rebel, losses can be minimized."
Liu Yu shook his head: "No, if you take the initiative to withdraw the troops at this time, it will give the insiders an excuse to threaten the people to rebel against Jin and establish themselves. I can't give them this opportunity. Let the women and children go south, firstly to protect them, and secondly to allow the soldiers to go south."
We understand that their family members are in the south, so don’t do anything that will affect their families. On the other hand, I will not let them stay where they are and die. I will personally lead the army to support them. The real insider will definitely deal with them at this time.
I took action! Whether he is loyal or traitorous, you can tell at a glance!"
