Xu Jinnian and Lu Liang both stared at each other, "Why?"
They had discussed this matter many times before, but no one had ever made such an argument as Lu Fang's.
How could it be a dead end to attack Kyoto?
"Don't say there is no emergency on the border. Even if the border is really in danger, Liang Hanmin will not fail to guard against us. Unless it is Daliao and Jin Feng's cavalry approaching Kyoto."
Lu Fangdao.
Xu Jinnian, Lu Liang and Yu Yuanwei all nodded lightly.
This is inevitable.
Not to mention Liang Hanmin, anyone sitting in that position who is not an idiot would not be defenseless against the rebels.
"But this is a rare opportunity."
Xu Jinnian frowned slightly and said: "Perhaps the cavalry of Daliao and Jin Feng can put great pressure on the imperial troops northwest and north of Kyoto this time. By then, our chances of success will be much greater."
There are Imperial Guards and garrison troops in every county, southeast and northwest of Da Yu, but generally speaking, the Northern Imperial Guards are stronger than the Southern Imperial Guards.
Because there are really few countries south of Dayu that can pose a big threat to Dayu.
Along the coast, we are just dealing with pirate attacks.
Unlike the north, which had to fight against the cavalry of Daliao, Jin, Feng, and even Tiemeng for many years.
If the military in northern Dayu is contained, the chance of the Chengdu County rebels succeeding is indeed much greater.
But Lu Fang still shook his head, "As far as the people of Dayu are concerned, at most only half of them think that we are the teachers of justice. Our incident in Chengdu County alone has already caused many people to criticize..."
The truth can sometimes be obscured.
After years of exaggeration, various versions of Liang Hanmin's bloodbath in the palace have long been derived.
Nowadays, many scholars are trying their best to excuse Liang Hanmin and even smear Emperor Qingyu, including Lu Liang and Lu Fang.
Lu Fang didn't go out of his way to learn about these things, but he always heard about them, and some clues could be seen from the gains in admiration and hatred.
Upon hearing this, Xu Jinnian and Lu Liang both frowned slightly and felt helpless.
"If we still take advantage of the country's crisis and lead an army to attack Kyoto, it will be criticized by thousands of people, reviled by thousands of people, and the people will be completely devastated!"
Lu Fang's expression gradually became serious, "In this case, how can we possibly reach Kyoto? Even if we reach there, how can we secure that position?"
There was silence in the house.
"But back then, Liang Hanmin was also an unjust teacher, so why don't he just sit still..."
After a long while, Lu Liang's angry voice sounded. Before he finished speaking, he realized that something was wrong and stopped talking.
"The situation is different."
Lu Fang sighed softly, "At least he has a reason to raise an army, hehe, Qingjun is on his side."
A sarcastic smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "With the current situation in Dayu, it is inappropriate for us to launch an army no matter what the reason is."
This is like a fight between people in a family. When there are no external enemies, they can have a lively fight behind closed doors. But if there are external enemies around, and under such circumstances there are still people making trouble within the family, such people must be
Scorned by the entire family.
There was silence in the house again.
"But if you wait for Daliao and Jin Feng to retreat, what chance will you have?"
When the sound came out again, it was Yu Yuanwei who spoke.
Without outsiders, he seemed to be thinking about the problem from the perspective of Lu Liang and Lu Fang.
Of course, this does not necessarily mean that he has fallen in love with Lu Liang and Lu Fang, but it is enough to show that he truly cares about Lu Fang.
"So we have to take advantage of this opportunity to strengthen ourselves!"
Lu Fang said: "When they go to war, we stock up on food. Is there no problem? We can't protect the stability of the Chengdu Prefecture and we can't be reviled by others."
"How much power can Chengdu County alone accumulate?"
Luliang Road.
He vaguely remembered that Lu Fang himself had said this.
"hey-hey."
Lu Fang suddenly laughed, "If we talk about troops, Chengdu Prefecture cannot recruit too many, but Chengdu County alone is enough for food. And I think that when Daliao and Jin Feng retreat, we may not be able to fight against Liang Hanmin."
The strength. After all..."
I shrugged my brows at Lu Liang, "You know I always advocate having the best troops, not too many."
Lu Liang's eyes flickered, thoughtfully.
Xu Jingnian also remained silent.
Lu Fang paused for a moment, then continued: "In the long run, the people's support is the most important thing. Otherwise, even if we can go to Kyoto, we will be like Liang Hanmin, sitting in that position, but always like a light on our backs.
In fact, whether we take advantage of it now or wait until the border incident is over before going to Kyoto, I think the difficulties we have to face will not be much different."
He spread his hands, "And since it's all gambling, what's the big difference between using a greater probability to win a small profit and using a small probability to win a big profit?"
The eyes of Lu Liang, Xu Jingnian and Yu Yuanwei all moved slightly.
They understood what Lu Fang meant.
When the border incident is over, it will be more difficult to overthrow Liang Hanmin than it is now, but the country of Chongqing that will be gained by then will be much more stable.
And if you take advantage of this time to attack Kyoto, you will definitely be despised by countless people. Even if you get the emperor's throne, you may not be able to sit safely.
This is undoubtedly something that requires making a decision.
Among the entire rebel army, only Lu Liang could make such a choice.
For a moment, after coming back to their senses, Xu Jinnian and Yu Yuanwei both looked at him.
Lu Liang looked very confused.
He is not a particularly decisive person.
After a long while, he said to Yu Yuanwei: "Can you allow me to think about it?"
After all, Lu Fang had told Yu Yuanwei before that he should return to Liang Hanmin after returning to Kyoto. Now, Lu Fang has taken back what he said.
"nature."
Yu Yuanwei nodded of course.
"well."
Lu Fang just sighed softly in his heart.
Having lived in two lifetimes, he could see through the shortcomings of his older brother.
Afterwards, the four of them had a tacit understanding and did not talk about the affairs between the rebels and the imperial court. During the dinner, Lu Fang was mostly talking to Yu Yuanwei, asking about the situation in Kyoto.
What about his wife, and what about his old friends in Kyoto?
Yu Yuanwei also told Lu Fang some news he had heard.
Liang Hanmin sent people to Jingnan County to investigate, and heard that the Wang family, Xu family, etc. were regarded as key targets.
But fortunately, I didn't hear anything happened to anyone.
This made Lu Fang feel relieved.
After the banquet was over, Lu Fang personally arranged a residence for Yu Yuanwei. Later, Jiang Zimo came to find him, saying that Lu Liang was looking for him.
Lu Fang knew that his brother probably wanted to hear his detailed plans before making a decision.
