Northern Dynasties Imperial Industry
Chapter 521 The old man loses his moral character
When Cui Qian heard what Li Tai said, he knew that he also had thoughts about himself, so he smiled and said: "Although I can't be idle in Beijing today, it doesn't mean that things are complicated. Ah Pan, if you have any plans, you might as well Straight talk.”
Cui Qian is now the official in the imperial court and the capital official. This position is certainly not a sinecure, but now the entire Chang'an court has been seriously neglected, and his little authority is better than nothing. If there is a better choice, of course I would be happy to change seats.
"I still don't have a firm plan, I just have some ideas."
Li Tai continued: "I met with the prince of Taiyuan and his envoy to Henan before, and briefly discussed current affairs. They both felt that the death of the Gao family and the rebellion of Hou Jing were an opportunity for the general trend of the world to change. If we can make good use of this opportunity, , even if the separation of the three kingdoms cannot be ended, the strength and weakness of each country will inevitably change. Those who are determined to make meritorious deeds should not sit idle."
"Although this is the truth, today's defeat in Heluo is only achieved by you, Apan. Recent commentators in the country dare not think of taking advantage of Heluo again! Although Duke Taiyuan's army is in Henan, he has no hope of help. Yes, once the bandits invade in large numbers, the situation will be critical."
Brother Cui Qian used to come from Heba Sheng to control Jingzhou. They themselves were both civil and military. They were quite ambitious and thought a lot about the current situation. After hearing what Li Tai said, they sighed again.
"Indeed, although the Gao family's authority is not as powerful as that of He Liuhun, it is still stronger than Kansai. If you rashly compete with it, the outcome is still unpredictable. But today's competition for power is not just a struggle between east and west, but also between north and south. Each one has his own picture.”
During this period, Li Tai also made a mockery of the situation between the north and the south in recent years, and even said: "Since the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, the national destiny has not been prosperous, and the war has been chaotic for several years, and the situation has been divided between the east and the west. On the other hand, the military in the south has not been diligent and the people have to recuperate, and the two wars have We often need to act in a big way without being disrespectful. But now we are rashly involved in chaos, and this will bring disaster to the country that is dishonest!"
"You want to conquer the Southern Kingdom? Isn't this idea a bit... Ah Pan, you don't enter his country, or you don't know the situation in Jiangxi Province. The Liang Lords enjoyed the country at that time, and Zhongli decided the fate of his country in one battle. He took one brigade and went straight to Luoyang. Even if there are The military performance should not be underestimated! The leader of Liang has been in the country for a long time, has shrewd governance, and is convinced by everyone. No one dares to rebel..."
Hearing that Li Tai had actually set his sights on Nanliang, Cui Qian and other people who had lived in the south of the Yangtze River changed their expressions. Even if they tried to persuade Li Tai not to be too frivolous, the old man of the Xiao family would only be the emperor at the age of one. He is older than us, not to mention cunning and cunning, but at least he is shrewd and skillful, so how can we take this lightly?
Li Tai couldn't help but feel happy after hearing this. Indeed, authority is often built up through time.
The Battle of Zhongli shortly after the founding of Nanliang was a great victory for the Northern and Southern Dynasties, Central and South Korea. Although decades have passed, many people are still deeply impressed by it.
Even in history, Hou Jing used this incident as an example when he advised Xiao Yan not to negotiate peace with the Eastern Wei Dynasty. The so-called battle of Zhongli and the failure of the horse to return. When the Northern Wei Dynasty was the most powerful, you made us cry for father and mother. Now we are facing How could you talk to Gao Cheng, the kid from the Eastern Wei Dynasty who borrowed corpses to bring back souls?
In the eyes of later generations who knew about Hou Jing's Rebellion, Emperor Wu of Liang Xiao Yan was naturally a big joke, but at the moment, Bodhisattva Xiao was indeed a remarkable figure, and it would be hard to overstate how profound and unpredictable he was.
After all, during the entire Northern Wei Dynasty, these northerners did not know that the emperor could actually live to be over eighty! The old emperor Xiao Bodhisattva, who is over 80 years old, is an extremely wise being. He is a living legend in the world!
Li Tai is not surprised that his cousins hold this view. With the advanced information in later generations, there is no shortage of paw teams to wave flags and summon souls for imperialism. Now at least Nanliang has not shown its timidity. Who can guess what Xiao Bodhisattva has in his crotch? There were a few bubbles.
Regarding the acute class contradictions in Nanliang Kingdom, although Li Tai knew the concept, he did not know the specific details. However, the huge crisis can be seen from the current political structure.
"The Southern Dynasty seems to be still strong, but in fact it has serious internal deficiencies and many shortcomings. I would like to ask my cousins, who is the enemy that can be defeated in a battle between the Kansai and the East bandits?"
Hearing Li Tai's question, Cui Qian and others shook their heads. Although they admitted that the Southern Dynasties were powerful, they did not belittle themselves. It was impossible to destroy the Kansai regime with just one war. As for the Eastern Dynasty, whose national power was stronger than that of Kansai, it was even more of a dream.
Li Tai then laughed and said: "Old people have lost their virtues, and are especially poisonous! Although the Liang Lord has enjoyed the country for a long time, his descendants are all strong, and each of them is fighting wars and vassals outside. Even if his power is inherited, it is inevitable to fight inside the house. . Is it a good idea for me to be beguiled by Hou Jing at such an old age and make a grudge against the north? "
When Cui Qian and others heard this, they couldn't help but look thoughtful, obviously their thoughts were stimulated by the situation described by Li Tai.
Yes, Xiao Yan, Lord of Liang, is now an octogenarian. Such an old age is very rare in this troubled world. Even if he has the dignity of an emperor and enjoys all the worship in the world, it is not easy to say when he will die.
The change of imperial power in the Southern Dynasties was often accompanied by various coups and turbulences, even more so than in the Northern Dynasties. The frequency of rise and fall of political power was also more frequent than in the Northern Dynasties. Now Xiao Yan has single-handedly prevented this trouble in the Southern Dynasty for decades, but this does not mean that this phenomenon has been completely eliminated. On the contrary, it has nourished and strengthened a batch of poisons, which may become more violent when they erupt again.
If Xiao Yan is a responsible emperor, then the most important thing for him now is to seize the time to solve some internal hidden dangers and ensure the stability of the throne transfer process, instead of being tempted by Hou Jing and rashly establishing external power because of his greed. of enemies.
Although Li Tai has the ability to predict the unknown, it is absolutely impossible to convince people at the moment based on things that have not happened yet. However, he can point out a basic context of the matter. Regardless of whether Hou Jing is present or not, today's Nan The situation in Liang has actually reached a very dangerous moment.
Therefore, history sometimes seems confusing, with countless clues, but in specific situations, what matters is actually luck and destiny.
Among the latter three kingdoms, why were the Western Wei and Northern Zhou Dynasties, which had the worst congenital foundation and the weakest power, able to complete the final counterattack?
No matter what angle you explain this problem from, one point cannot be ignored, that is, Yuwentai died later than his opponents, his own political power was more stable, and he suffered the dividends of several waves of opponent deaths and civil strife.
Even if Hou Jing can't resist Jiang's torment, the possibility of Xiao Yan and his sons not engaging in a quarrel is extremely slim given their virtue. A group of poisonous poisonous insects happened to meet an old and kind father who cared for them and indulged them in every possible way. As a result, the people of Jiangnan suffered.
"So, Apan, your next step is to go south to Jingzhou?"
Although Li Tai has not said it clearly, since the next step is to take Nanliang as a strategic target, then Jingzhou, which borders Nanliang and has the closest communication in the Western Dynasty, is naturally a choice. Therefore, Cui Qian asked again, with a face on his face. There was also an excited smile on his face.
After hearing this, Li Tai nodded: "I do intend to leave Jingzhou, but I am afraid that my prestige and talent are not enough to calm down the popular forces in that town, so I want to ask my cousin to go with me and conspire to conquer this town. I don't know what my cousin wants. ?”
"Yes, of course I do! Ah Pan, have you asked Daxantai?"
After Cui Qian heard this, he nodded repeatedly. He used to go out to control Jingzhou from He Basheng, and he served as He Basheng's left prime minister. He was responsible for the government management of Jingzhou and the contacts and exchanges with powerful Fang chiefs and other local forces. , so many achievements have been pinned on Jingzhou.
It's a pity that He Basheng was defeated and defected to Nanliang, and they also followed him, and they have no chance to meet Jingzhou since then. It would be a great comfort to him if he could return to Jingzhou this time because of Li Tai and realize the ambitions of his youth. As for whether it was because of his reputation that he was inferior to his cousin, he didn't care at all.
"Although I am interested in Jingzhou, I still don't know much about the situation there. If I want to ask Daxingtai to control that place, I naturally need to have a deep understanding of people and things, so I have to ask my cousins for their advice."
Li Tai said with a smile that his knowledge of Jingzhou today is all based on paper. When it comes to details, he will inevitably make many mistakes and omissions. Of course, he has to ask Cui Qian and other people who have actually been there before he can have a firm understanding. In addition to several cousins, he also wrote to his father-in-law, Dugu Xin, expressing his desire to go to Jingzhou, hoping that Dugu Xin could help him.
Hearing Li Tai's request, Cui Qian pondered and sorted it out before saying: "In recent years, the situation in all parties has changed a lot. It is useless to think about the situation that is too long ago. Let's talk about it after the old grand master left Jingzhou... …”
Today, Jingzhou in the Western Wei Dynasty is located on the west side of the Nanyang Basin and south of Funiu Mountain. The prefectural government, Rangcheng, is the later Dengzhou in Henan Province. Compared with Jingzhou in the usual sense, it is located to the north, and it is more than 200 miles south of Xiangyang.
Today's Xiangyang is still under the rule of Nanliang, and because it was the former town of Longxing, the former town of Xiao Yan, Emperor Wu of Liang, it is also a large town in Nanliang today east of the Han River, and is governed by Yongzhou Prefecture.
Although Jingzhou's strategic position is important, it was not considered a major military town in the late Northern Wei Dynasty and the Eastern and Western Wei Dynasties. Although the two sides have fought fiercely over this place, in most cases they have used this place as a barrier to the core area of their rule, and have not deployed heavy troops to operate it seriously.
The fiercest competition between the two sides around this place was in the early years of Datong. He Basheng was first driven to Nanliang, and Duguxin regained Jingzhou, and then he was also driven to Nanliang. In the battles such as Shayuan and Heqiao, Jingzhou was used as a The loot from the periphery was transferred between the two Wei Dynasties.
It was not until the fifth year of Datong that Hou Jing tried to regain Jingzhou but failed, and then he gave up the fight for this place. From then on, Jingzhou belonged to the Western Wei Dynasty, and the Western Wei Dynasty appointed Changsun Jian as the governor of Jingzhou, which lasted from the sixth year of Datong to last year. In the twelfth year of Datong's reign, Zhang Sunjian was recalled and Wang Sizheng was sent out of town.
After that, Wang Sizheng abandoned the town and left, and the Bafu sent Luozhou local tycoon Quan Zhongzun to take charge. It is a pity that Jingzhou of the Western Wei Dynasty and Jingzhou of the Southern Liang Dynasty are not bordering each other. Otherwise, it can be suspected that this appointment is a mockery of Xiao Yi, the king of Xiangdong in the Southern Liang Dynasty, so that the two generals can have a pair of eyes.
