Chapter 4886: All generals fight for power after the war
Luo Longsheng said thoughtfully: "Sir, do you mean that the generals of Beifu will start to fight for power in the future, especially to form their own power based on the size of their troops, and then compete for the position of commander-in-chief of Beifu?
"
The black robe nodded and said: "This is an inevitable result. Think about it, after Liu Yu raised his troops in Jingkou, he himself took the position of the central court, the governor of Yangzhou, and the commander-in-chief of the Beifu. Moreover, Jingzhou,
Places like Jiangzhou and Yuzhou were guarded by comrades of his generation such as Liu Daogui, He Wuji, and Liu Yi. At that time, Liu Yu was just the leader of the Beifu Army, or in other words, the leader of the alliance.
At most, I'm only half a stature ahead of these allies, and I'm far from being the only one who has the upper hand."
"Later, Liu Yu wanted to implement the Big Three model. To put it bluntly, it was because no one of him was big enough to control the entire Beifu Army Group. Although his contemporaries Liu Jingxuan and Xiang Mi followed him, Liu Yi, He
The power of Wuji and Wuji is also very large. With people like Zhuge Changmin, Liu Yu still needs to take into account the opinions of many parties. The reason why he has been in power for nearly ten years, except for Nanyan's active invasion of Jiangbei, gives him the opportunity to start a war.
The reason is that he has never been able to take the initiative to launch the Northern Expedition, and he has been unable to implement his ideas on a large scale across the country. This is why."
Luo Longsheng laughed: "So, this time Tianshi Dao raised troops to kill He Wuji and seriously injured Liu Daogui. This also broke the balance of forces and will inevitably set off a new round of rebalancing of power within the Beifu Army. Yes
Isn’t that the case?”
The black robe nodded: "That's right. People who were of the same generation as Liu Yu in the past, such as He Wuji, Liu Yi, Zhuge Changmin, and Liu Jingxuan, have always been vassal-like generals who ruled one state and ruled the other.
He has a complete legion under his command, and after Liu Yu captured the land of Nanyan, Liu Jingxuan finally had the crucial place of Qingzhou Governor, which was rich in resources and people, enough to increase the size of his legion from the previous five thousand.
The number rose to more than 50,000 people. The reason why Liu Yi and He Wuji rushed to attack the Tianshi Dao army was actually stimulated by this, because once Liu Jingxuan's strength expanded to the size of a large state, the three giants were likely to
It has become the Big Four or even the Big Five.”
Luo Longsheng squinted his eyes and nodded: "In the end, the two of them messed up. Both Jiangzhou and Yuzhou were lost directly. One died, and the other was wiped out. His reputation was greatly damaged. Although Liu Yiqi used the underground forces in Jiankang City
, he partially rebuilt his army, but he never had the possibility to rule in Jiankang. As you analyzed before, he could only take the initiative to go out and join the vassal, become the governor of one party, and then slowly
Rebuilding your own power."
Heipao laughed: "Yes, so what Liu Yi is eyeing must be the position of governor of Jingzhou. I will help him fight for this. Only when Liu Yi comes to Jingzhou can a full-scale conflict with Liu Yu break out.
It will also be the beginning of a comprehensive split of the Beifu Army and a civil war. However, before that, I think Liu Yu's disciples and grandchildren, those young people a generation younger than him, will start to seize territory in various places first, forming various factions.
A handsome soldier."
Luo Longsheng raised his fingers and began to criticize one by one: "Yes, these young marshals under Liu Yu have grown up in the past two years of war, and their reputation and military merit in the army are very good.
As the older generation of generals faded out, they began to become the backbone of the current Beifu Army, such as the three heroes of the Tan family, Tan Zhi, Tan Shao and Tan Daoji. As the eldest son, Tan Shao inherited the power of the Tan Ping family.
, I also followed Liu Yu in the southern and northern wars, and made great achievements in the war. After the war, I was named the internal history of Langya to manage the Shannan counties of the original Southern Yan, which was the original land of Southern Qingzhou."
"However, Tan Shao is a typical fierce general and soldier. He is good at combat and assault. He knows nothing about civil affairs. He also likes to drink, ride and hunt. He has no political achievements to speak of. Like Xiang Mi, he became an official of aristocratic families and accused and impeached Beifu.
Generals are typical examples of being brave and incompetent, and disrupting the people and government, so it is unlikely that he will become a high-ranking official. At most, he will stay in the army and retain his military position."
The black robe nodded: "Yes, Tan Shao is such a person, and he has a bold personality. Even in Liu Yu's view, he is unruly. He has been demoted and punished many times in the past, but he cannot be allowed to have such a good temper.
Therefore, in recent years, Liu Yu has begun to deliberately transfer the Tan family's troops to Tan Zhi and Tan Daoji. In fact, he wants the third and fourth sons to replace the eldest brother of the Tan family, who has disappointed him somewhat."
Luo Longsheng continued: "Tan Zhi is much more stable than his elder brother, but he is not a person who gets along well with the people. Whenever he goes to a place, he also likes to make friends with local powerful people, have banquets and socialize. This may be the home of the Tan family
Feng, it's okay to be a strong man and a big brother, but local officials still can't be too close to the local heroes. Look at his relationship with the captain of the Dongman Asiba, it's a bit beyond the boundary between superiors and subordinates. If it were changed
When the noble family is in power, I am afraid that some people will impeach him for establishing personal favors in the local area, or even privately building the army that these powerful men have contributed to, and having evil intentions."
Speaking of this, Luo Longsheng suddenly laughed: "However, this time Tan Zhi lost all his money in the Battle of Horse Head. As the front army, almost all of his regiment died in the battle, including Captain Asiba.
All the Dong barbarians under his command have also been lost. After the war, I am afraid he will have to return to Wuling and spend a long time rebuilding the army. Moreover, this will require Liu Yu to allocate him a large number of Beifu army troops to reorganize the core army."
The black robe shook his head: "Tan Zhi will not return to Wuling. Wuling and Jiangzhou were important in the past just because this place was used to monitor the Tianshi Dao army in Guangzhou and then serve as a vanguard to attack Tianshi Dao.
But this time, Liu Yu should be determined to destroy Tianshi Dao. Tan Zhi will definitely follow the army in the next war. Regardless of the outcome of the war, Tan Zhi will not stay here long after the war.
, Liu Yu will have other appointments for him, just like you said, he will be asked to go to places like Wudi or the Six Counties of Jiangbei to reorganize his Beifu Army."
Luo Longsheng frowned: "Aren't these places controlled by Zhuge Changmin and Liu Daolian? Xiang Mi's territory is also in the six counties of Jiangbei. How could it be given to Tan Shao?"
The black robe sneered and said: "Zhuge Changmin is greedy, but Liu Daolian is not only greedy, but also incompetent. Although he is brave in fighting Xiang Mi and listens to Liu Yu's words, he has no ability to govern the place and collect taxes."
