Chapter 2265: Yu Jia personally fights against Liu Yi
Huan Xuan's eyes were shining. The words of these two counselors had clearly analyzed the pros and cons. But now, when he was asked to make a decision on his own, after pondering for a long time, he still shook his head: "No, it's over now."
There is no way to retreat, and we cannot surrender. With the title of emperor, we can unite the forces of Jingzhou to fight against the Eight Bandits of Jing. If we lose this title, I am afraid that even the soldiers in the camp will be dispersed.
I'm clean. Liu Yi is a ruthless person and will never let me go, because he also has his eye on Jingzhou. To compete with Liu Yu, a princess is not enough. I heard that he has recruited the people of Pankou
The captured baggage was left as a prisoner, under the care of his confidant Xi Sengshi, and Jingzhou's military strength and storage were far superior to Jiangzhou's. He had finally won the position of commander-in-chief of the Western Expeditionary Army, so how could he give up like this?
"
Bian Fanzhi said with a smile: "What your Majesty said is absolutely true. Even if Liu Yu is willing to let you go, Liu Yi will never let you go. There is another He Wuji who is a very filial man. His mother committed suicide in order to rebel. He took this account
Your Majesty must have been blamed, and it is impossible to retreat. Sending Sima Dezong and Wang Shen'ai back at this time will only further improve the morale of the enemy. That is an act of weakness. Your Majesty, you must not show weakness at this time!
"
Tao Yuanming sighed: "If we really want to fight, it would be best to take advantage of the favorable conditions of winning the battle with the Mao family of Bashu, negotiate a secret peace with them, and promise not to take the initiative to attack Bashu. The Mao family is not very loyal to the Jin Dynasty, so we must
Otherwise, they would not have stood still when His Majesty took over the Jin Dynasty. They just saw the success of the Jingba uprising and wanted to take advantage of it. Now giving them a head-on blow should make them sober up a lot."
Huan Xuan said bitterly: "Although Liu Yuezhi was killed, my cousin Huan Xi, the governor of Liangzhou, was attacked and killed by the Mao family, and the land of Hanzhong in Liangzhou also fell into their hands. Is this account right?
Is that all?"
Tao Yuanming smiled slightly: "These are trivial matters. First, stabilize the Mao family. Their nephew Mao Xiuzhi is still under your command. He worked hard in the previous battles and is loyal to His Majesty. You can communicate with the Mao family through him.
Get in touch and secretly agree on the terms of peace talks. Now that the Jin Dynasty has changed, Liu Yu and his gang of soldiers have taken power. If Jingzhou is really destroyed, it is unlikely that Yizhou will be able to survive alone. When the time comes, they will be given an order to give way.
Are they willing to give up the territory they have been operating for decades? By cooperating with you, they can at least protect their current territory."
Huan Xuan gritted his teeth: "That's all, it's important to deal with Liu Yi in front of him first. The Mao family can indeed have a temporary truce. Jingzu, what do you think?"
Bian Fanzhi nodded and said: "I have the same view as Yuan Ming on this point. You must not be attacked on both sides at this time. First stabilize the Mao family, repel Liu Yi, and then slowly settle the score with Mao."
Huan Xuan said sternly: "However, after I stabilize the Mao family, I will not stick to this place. Liu Yi won a battle at Fankou. His front is very sharp. If we don't take the initiative to fight against him, we will probably join him along the way."
There will be a lot of people. As a result, when he reaches Jiangling, we may no longer have the advantage of troops. When Sima Yuanxian was my enemy, he also led his army to march westward. At that time, I decisively marched straight forward with an overwhelming momentum
After Sima Yuanxian, Liu Laozhi defected. The last battle of Jiankang was the other way around. Liu Yu only had a few thousand men, but he pretended to be an army of tens of thousands, marching straight forward, and finally forced him to
The Beifu army defected in front of the battlefield, which made us what we are now. I will not make such a mistake again. I will attack Liu Yi head-on!"
Even Bian Fanzhi changed his expression at this time: "Your Majesty, please don't act on your own initiative. Our elite soldiers have not yet been assembled. Even if Liu Yi came thousands of miles away, the people who joined him on the way were just some weak soldiers from Jiangzhou, which is not enough."
For the sake of fear, at the very least, we have to wait for Huan Zhen or Lu Zongzhi to come and join us before we can be sure of competing with Liu Yi."
Huan Xuan said coldly: "Don't I rely on them to raise armies to conquer the world for so many years? Isn't it my own strength?"
Bian Fanzhi stopped talking and did not dare to speak anymore, because he knew that this involved Huan Xuan's arrogance or self-esteem. There was no right or wrong on this issue.
Tao Yuanming sighed: "Since your Majesty is determined to take the initiative to attack, then at least let Huan Zhen come to his senses. Although this son is strong and violent and difficult to control, he is the most courageous in the war. Moreover, your Majesty has lost a lot of good generals. The fastest and nearest
, so Huan Zhen."
Huan Xuan waved his hand impatiently: "We haven't reached an agreement with the Mao family in the west yet. We have to have generals guarding them at this time. Huan Zhen, this kid, has always been disobedient. It's good to let him take charge of his own affairs. If we call him at this time,
Then the whole army will think that I am not as good as this nephew in fighting, and then my throne..."
Having said this, Huan Xuan said in a deep voice to Tao Yuanming: "Yuanming, you go and draft a letter to the Mao family with Yin Zhongwen now. You have a good grasp of the content. Just write down the meaning we just discussed, and also
Yes, keep an eye on Wang Shenai and don’t let her have any contact with the Jingba thieves at this time."
Tao Yuanming smiled slightly and saluted: "I will do it now."
When Tao Yuanming's figure disappeared outside the tent, Huan Xuan sighed and lowered his voice: "Jing Zu, Jing Zu, are you really confused or are you pretending to be confused? Do Huan Zhen and I have a simple uncle-nephew relationship? Back then I was
Why did you hack his father and forget it?!"
Bian Fanzhi nodded: "I only thought of this when you asked Tao Yuanming to go out just now. Huan Chong, Huan Shiqian, and Huan Shimin were all eliminated by you with Xi Chao's Five Stone Powder, so you have been on guard.
Huan Zhen. However, this matter has been going on for many years, and Huan Zhen does not know what happened back then. Now is the time to employ people. Without Huan Zhen, who will resist the charge of the tigers and wolves under Liu Yi? This Battle of Huankou proves it again
Come on, these Beijing thieves are not afraid of death, they are the first to attack, they are all the best generals in the world."
Huan Xuan sighed: "If it were a land war, I might recall Huan Zhen, but this is a water war, and my personal bravery is not that great. Last time in the Battle of Mukou, we were defeated by fire. This time in
Just pay more attention to this aspect. Apply a layer of black mud on the outside. This will be a head-to-head contest. Don't be self-defeating like He Danzhi. Even if the loss is bigger, as long as you can defeat Liu Yi this time, there will be a turning point, just like Tao Yuanming
As I just analyzed, Liu Yi now has a princess who wants to resist Liu Yu. If we repel him then, we can secretly send Sima Dewen back. Liu Yi is unfavorable in the war, but he has gained political capital, and maybe he will change.
And by supporting Sima Dewen and returning to Jiankang to fight for power with Liu Yu, our crisis will be over."
