Chapter 623: Never Peace
"I can't stay in Youzhou for too long. The matter here must be settled as soon as possible." After returning to Jicheng, Shao Xun found his former Junfu officials and said, "Who can take a trip to Daijun?
To relieve my worries?"
Zaosong, Zhu Shuo, You Tong and You Mi understood immediately upon hearing this that Mr. Chen did not want to go to war with Tuoba Xianbei, at least not now.
In fact, if you think about it, you can understand it. There are only more than 800,000 dendrobium grains. What should we do? We will not be able to survive this year?
"Ming Gong, I would like to accompany you." Lu Shen said.
Shao Xun pondered for a while and nodded.
Lu Shen is more suitable than anyone else.
His father, Lu Zhi, is brother-in-law to Liu Kun, and Liu Kun has a good relationship with Tuoba Yilu. Whether Lu Shen takes action is another question, but at least his personal safety will be greatly increased.
"Zili, tell Tuoba clan that in the past, Liu Yueshi was generous and granted Daijun to Yilu as a feudal state, but the imperial court did not agree. In addition, Yanmen was the main county of the imperial court, and Liu Yueshi ceded it privately
, and it’s not in line with the system.” Shao Xun said: “What’s the point of spying on Changshan today? If you want to take away the counties and counties that the soldiers of the Jin Dynasty fought bloody battles for, you have to exchange their blood for them.”
Lu Shen understood and accepted.
This is fraud!
Mr. Chen didn't want to fight, but he just put on a tough look and pointed out clearly that if you dare to extend your claws to Jizhou, I will chop him into pieces. Do you dare to try?
The competition is heartbeat. Whoever blinks first loses.
Shao Xun was a little emotional.
When he made the Northern Expedition plan at the beginning of this year, he did not think about taking Youzhou because he was worried that it would cause new trouble.
Everything in this world has its advantages and disadvantages. It is impossible for you to enjoy only the advantages without the disadvantages.
Why do you want to capture Youzhou without any involvement of cause and effect? Are you God’s biological son?
However, the prospect described by Lu Zhi was so good that he could obtain the land of five counties without spending a single soldier. After careful calculation, the advantages outweighed the disadvantages, so he finally made up his mind to capture it.
If he takes over Youzhou, he will also take over all the troubles in Youzhou. You still have to be mentally prepared for this.
Tuoba Xianbei has been involved in Youzhou affairs for a long time. Duan Bu and Murong Xianbei are also entrenched in Youzhou. Their forces are complicated and complicated, which is troublesome.
The trouble needs to be solved step by step. Meeting Tuoba Xianbei now will only make the Xiongnu smile crookedly.
But then again, if Tuoba wants to fight, just fight. Without this posture, it is impossible to achieve peace.
Liu Han, the governor of Youzhou, and Yang Dan, the internal historian of Gaoyang who was about to take office, were also present. When they saw Shao Xun being so staunch, they had a new understanding of his style.
"Let's discuss the matter of Duan Xianbei." Shao Xun added: "Yesterday, Murong Xianbei arrived and agreed to attack the Duan family. What do you think?"
"Ming Gong, Murong Xianbei is very ambitious. He wants to eliminate his old enemy in one fell swoop." You Tong has been an official in Youzhou for many years and is very aware of the troubles between Yuwen, Murong and Duan Xianbei.
"Murong's plan was definitely not a sudden one. He may have been planning for a long time." Zhu Shuo sighed: "The Zhengjun in western Liaoning was first controlled by Duan Bu, and then fell into the hands of Murong. Now he has extended his hand to Beiping. His ambition is beyond control."
"Who doesn't have some ambition?" Zaosong said with a bitter smile: "Youzhou is still too weak, and there is nothing to be done if it is coveted. Tuoba Xianbei fought so many battles for the court. In the end, if there is no reward from Daijun, I am afraid that he will not be able to do anything.
They are willing to fight with the Xiongnu. The Murong family is naturally ambitious. Changli and western Liaoning are in their hands. What's so strange about taking Beiping?"
"Ming Gong must not allow the Murong clan to interfere in this." Yang Dan frowned and said: "The Duan tribe has a hundred thousand people, which is not a small number. If it is defeated by the Murong clan, after killing the chieftain, the remaining
All the Muzi herdsmen can be conquered by Murong. In this way, the Murong family's strength will greatly increase and they will become more and more uncontrollable."
"Ming Gong, Youzhou still has 800,000 grains of dendrobium. If we send tens of thousands of troops, which will last two to three months, we may be able to attack them."
"Ming Gong, we cannot let Murong enter Peiping."
"Ming Gong..."
It can be seen that General Youzhou is really a little anxious.
Who in this world is really willing to give up his own interests to cater to others?
Once Murong Xianbei entered Youzhou, the situation was completely different from when Chen Gong occupied Youzhou.
The Murong clan has its own tribe, which is very powerful. At the same time, there are also a large number of scholars and refugees who have taken refuge in the past. Once they take control of Youzhou, they will inevitably place a large number of their own people in order to occupy the official positions of the locals in Youzhou.
In fact, a large number of Xianbei tribes moved inward, completely changing the population structure of Youzhou, competing with Wubao commanders and even ordinary people for fields, pastures, and mountains and forests.
But Chen Gong could not do this.
To put it bluntly, his rule over the entire Youzhou is actually restrictive. Unless he migrates soldiers and civilians from Henan as his base, he will not be able to truly change the current situation.
When you compare the two, it becomes obvious what to do.
"Meng Sun." Shao Xun glanced at Zhang Bin, who was sitting low-key and invisible in the corner, and asked, "What are your plans?"
Seeing that his name was called, Zhang Bin could not continue to remain invisible, so he could only say: "Ming Gong might spread the news that Murong Xianbei is going to attack Peiping. In this way, Duan Bu will definitely panic, and things will be much easier to handle.
.”
"Well..." Shao Xun thought for a while and praised: "This is a good plan."
Everyone has some idea of Duan Bu Xianbei's current state.
The internal affairs must be torn apart. Liaoxi County Duke Duan Ji and his family cannot control everyone. He, Duan Mobo, Duan Shefuchen, Duan Pixi, Duan Wenyang and other powerful factions have their own ideas, and not everyone may act in one direction.
It's dark.
Appropriate application of pressure can promote the internal differentiation of Duan Xianbei, making it much easier to fight.
"This matter can be handled immediately." Shao Xun said, "What else can be done?"
"Ming Gong." The elder Liu Han suddenly spoke: "Ming Gong said before that Duan Bu should be suppressed and appeased at the same time. I think that the main purpose is to appease and suppress the army as a supplement. Now that the armies are scattered, Jicheng has stopped black.
, Yi Cong's second army only numbered ten thousand people. Zhang Wu's silver spear army numbered only a few thousand, but they were not strong enough. When Duan Bu's life and death were at stake, he ordered a battle between trapped beasts. Can these more than ten thousand soldiers and horses be enough?
Who——"
Liu Han mentioned something that no one else had said, but that must be guarded against: "What if Murong Xianbei comes with a crowd and goes straight to Duke Ming? How to deal with it?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's expression changed, and even Shao Xun's face became serious.
After a little deduction, we can see that this is not impossible.
Duan Xianbei was desperate and might have surrendered to Murong Xianbei. In the past few years, countless clan leaders took refuge with their tribesmen.
The only ones who are really difficult to rely on are the senior leaders of the tribe, and it’s hard to tell.
If Murong Xianbei annexes the Duan family and directly attacks Jicheng, can you really withstand it?
The Yi Congjun may have been defeated directly.
The black army of more than 4,000 men and a half will be completely annihilated.
The Silver Spear Right Battalion is unable to support itself alone, and the possibility of destruction is not small.
At that time, not only will Youzhou change, but even Jizhou will face turmoil, and the losses will be huge.
Of course, it seems that the number of troops that Shao Xun can mobilize is not more than 10,000. After all, there are still people in Youzhou. However, the Yan soldiers are quite afraid of Xianbei, so it is difficult to guess how much force they can contribute.
When the war is not going well, it is not impossible to disperse in a hurry.
To put it bluntly, don't do it poorly and pierce the tiger's skin, otherwise the situation will become complicated.
After all, you use your silver spear, black gun, and righteous troops to intimidate the undecided Youzhou soldiers and barbarians. Once the tiger skin is exposed and the myth of victory in every battle is shattered, people will be dissatisfied.
Shao Xun stood up and walked around the room twice.
His eyes came into contact with Zhang Bin, who nodded slightly.
He had only proposed one strategy: to publicize the news that Murong Xianbei was going to attack the Duan family, and it was obvious that the main purpose was to appease the Duan family.
It's just that I couldn't figure out Shao Xun's thinking and didn't put forward any more opinions.
"Shi Lun." Shao Xun looked at Yang Yu and said.
"Servant is here."
"Years ago, an envoy came to Peiping, but the appeasement failed. Are you willing to make another trip?" Shao Xun asked.
"When will we set off?"
"After my troops are sent out, we can make the trip." Shao Xun said: "If you are willing to come and surrender, you can give it to three generals. In the future, you can help them capture western Liaoning and expel Murong Xianbei."
"As commanded."
"Made in Taiwan." Shao Xun added, "I'll go to Xu Wu and contact the tribes in Peking."
"As commanded."
"Guangming, how many tribal light cavalry can be recruited at this time?" Shao Xun asked.
"The grass has not turned green yet, and there are many things to do, so I'm afraid it will be difficult." You Tong said truthfully: "If we spread money and food to attract people, we might be able to get more than ten thousand riders."
"Recruit as much as possible." Shao Xun said: "The sooner the better."
These tribesmen knew Xianbei's great reputation, so they would definitely not be able to fight a tough battle, but they could not do without them, let alone live without them.
"Generals from the five towns of Feilongshan, Puyangshan, Yijing, Wuqiang, and Lukou will each bring two thousand cavalry to the meeting." Shao Xun made the final decision: "The armies must be fast when they arrive, and be slow to send out troops to suppress them."
Use them both together, mainly caressing."
After speaking, he waved his hand and said: "We will discuss it carefully later and check for any omissions."
Zhang Bin looked at Shao Xun silently.
I wonder if Mr. Chen regrets taking Youzhou so early.
If you don’t take Youzhou, you won’t have so many worries.
After taking Youzhou, we have to face the Xianbei directly.
Murong probably started planning to attack Duanbu after he learned about the changes in Youzhou last year.
They have no friendship with Ming Gong, so it's hard to say what their specific attitude is.
In addition, there is a more powerful Yuwen Xianbei who is keeping an eye on him. There is a high probability that he will not go south, but what if it happens?
Youzhou should not start another war, otherwise there will never be peace.
