Eight Hills in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

Vol 4 Chapter 2623: Compromise and seek cooperation

Liu Muzhi's brows frowned slightly: "In fact, this is what I am worried about. This time, the monster sent Ruan Qianzhi to the dynasty to spy on our reality. Once the war with Nanyan is prolonged, I am afraid they will unite. Xishu and even Hou Qin joined forces to attack each other. For this, you still have to make full preparations."

Liu Yuzheng said: "So this time I rejected the support of Xi Le and Wuji. They actually wanted to participate in the Northern Expedition, but because of the demon, I could not transfer the soldiers and horses in the west. Jingzhou has There are 20,000 soldiers and horses of Taoism. Jiangzhou has 30,000 elite soldiers. In Xiangzhou, there are 10,000 elite soldiers from Huaisu. These 60,000 horses are dedicated to guard against monsters. Muji is a good general, and most of these soldiers and horses are veterans of the North House. I think, even if you can't attack Lingnan, you can defend against the monsters, there is no big problem."

Liu Muzhi hooked up the corner of his mouth: "However, our soldiers and horses are scattered in a vast area of ​​thousands of miles, especially in Jiangzhou. There are dozens of states and counties that need to be divided into defenses. Wuji has only three thousand troops at hand. The thief suddenly dispatched an entire army and raided southern Hunan, I'm afraid it will be difficult to mobilize troops for a while."

Liu Pao's brow furrowed, holding his hands behind his back, and pacing, after a long time, he stopped, and said in a deep voice: "If the demon thief is dispatched by an army and breaks through the Five Ridges, he will first rely on the 10,000 Malays in southern Hunan to resist. Being stationed in Baling now is enough to fight for this time. Even if it cannot be delayed for too long, at least it will fight for Dao Gui and Wuji to gather time. In addition, Xi Le can dispatch 20,000 to 30,000 elites to support at any time in Yuzhou, I think, No matter how strong the demon thief is, it is impossible to easily defeat these brothers of mine. After all, they are also battle-tested veterans of many years. If it weren’t for the invasion of Nanyan, Wuji would go to Lingnan as planned. To put down the demon, I think, he also has a lot of energy, ready to prove himself."

Liu Muzhi nodded: "Recently we transferred Wang Hong, Changyu Zhang Maodu and others to Wuji to help him manage the prefectures and counties from Xiangzhou to Yuzhang. As long as Jiangzhou's production can be quickly restored, It can provide sufficient military rations for the front line of Jingzhou and become a new stable rear. I hope that this time the demon will be able to stand on their feet and, as Ruan Qianzhi said, change their minds and become a new man."

Liu Yu nodded: "If Lu, Xu and others can really allegiance to the court, this time Anfen, then I will let them live a little longer. As long as they are willing to hand over the army and leave Guangzhou, it is not impossible to give them a pardon. But it depends on their performance. By the way, besides the first 50,000 soldiers and horses, I also need Wu Di to dispatch 10,000 or 20,000 people as soon as possible to support the front line, Fatty. Can I do it?"

Liu Muzhi's brows frowned: "Did you strike up the idea of ​​the family trilogy of the Wu Di family?"

Liu Yu smiled slightly and looked at Wang Miaoyin: "There are also the guards of the family in Jiankang City. For example, Yu Yue, this time he is willing to take the initiative to ask for the expedition, and he will definitely bring people to vote. It will never be like last time. In that way, it’s just to give credit to the army."

Wang Miaoyin sighed: "Yu Yue was because he was at odds with Xie, Xi Sengshi and the others, or that he fell out with Liu Yi before turning to you. This is not the common behavior of the family in Beijing. As mentioned earlier, you used scholars, established prefaces, and even wanted to use printing techniques to popularize education and replace aristocratic families. This caused their panic. Even my mother couldn’t suppress it, so she could only temporarily retreat behind the scenes. Xie Hun came out to preside over this matter, I'm afraid there won't be many family members following this time."

Liu Yu said calmly: “It’s okay. The top family refuses to contribute, so let the frustrated people like Yu Yue and other middle and upper-class families, especially the Zhang family and the Shen family, have the opportunity to make contributions. The irregularity has been set long ago, no merit is not rewarded, no noble is not an official, if this time I can successfully destroy the swallow, then I will definitely distribute the benefits after the victory to those who contributed in this battle fairly. "

Liu Muzhi smiled and said: "Last time Liu Yi went west, he assigned many family members to officials after returning. This has attracted many people. You should have done this a long time ago. Once Nanyan is settled, the six counties in Jiangbei will It's completely safe. When the time comes, these aristocratic families will come here frantically grab the land, you have to prepare early."

Liu Yu said solemnly: "The original land allocated remains unchanged, and now the state-owned land without an owner will be distributed to the meritorious soldiers and families according to the merits of the battle. At present, the enemy is the issue of Xingxu and printing. You can put it away for a while, just follow what we have done before, and wait for Nanyan to be laid down. It is the hometown of Confucius and Mencius and the former residence of the saints. At that time, a new preface will be built there. The newly regained areas will train qualified staff, so that it will not damage the interests of the existing family, and will not stop our plan. What do you think?"

Liu Muzhi nodded: "This is a good idea. However, there are many Han Chinese families in Nanyan. If you want to destroy the Yan, you will need their support. Now, more energy should be placed on how to win. , Anyway, we have no advantage in military strength at UU reading www.uukanshu.com."

Liu Yuzheng said: "That's why I need the support of soldiers and horses from Wudi. There are hundreds of thousands of private soldiers in the family of Wudi. It is like the five tigers of the Shen family with more than two thousand soldiers. , I have been in my hometown. I used to consider not keeping a large army in Wudi to reduce the supply and maintenance costs of the imperial court. But this time it is an extermination war. I can no longer hide soldiers in the people. Within a month, I need At least 20,000 horses will go north and gather in Pengcheng. The ordnance can be supplied by the court, but people must come. Mu Zhi, can they do it?"

Liu Muzhi's brows frowned: "If the Zhang and Shen families are willing to take the lead in helping, the 20,000 rebels are not a big problem, but this is the name..."

Liu Yu smiled slightly: "Just come first in the name of recruiting soldiers, let them form the army separately according to the family and the village, don't mix with the Beifu army, first take charge of the flank defense and the task of guaranteeing the food road, and then the war is about to go. It’s not too late to use. Many of the Shen family soldiers were born in the Heavenly Master Dao, and they have very strong combat effectiveness. They also defeated Jingzhou soldiers and horses in the Jiang Cheng **** battle during the last Jianyi. I believe that they can be used at critical times. Sure."

Liu Muzhi laughed and looked at Wang Miaoyin: "It seems that your brother Yu has already thought about it. Then, this time, the Xie family or the Wang family can help? If you can take the lead, at least it can There will be an extra 30,000 troops and a million stone, grain and grass."
