Chapter 4928: There is a reason for the Tianshi chaos
Yu Yue nodded proudly: "This was the result of secret deliberations between the senior members of our aristocratic family at that time under the call of Wang Ningzhi. However, at that time we did not know that there was a black hand Qiankun behind everything, let alone the affairs of the Tiandao Alliance, but
Wang Ningzhi said that Sima Daozi controlled the government and wanted to regain power as a clan. The Xie family had made great contributions to the country. Although they had organized a private army, their crimes were not enough to surrender their positions. Wang Gong and Yin Zhongkan were both suppressed in this way.
He is a descendant of my family who is in charge of the big state to check and balance the imperial power of the Sima family. However, Sima Daozi bribed Liu Laozhi and used them to rebel and killed Wang Gong. Wang Gong is dead, and our families may be next.
It has been our consensus since the founding of the country to check and balance the Sima royal family and prevent them from killing high-ranking members of the family. Therefore, we must resolutely refuse to cooperate with Sima Daozi. We have various tax exemptions and exemptions stipulated by the emperors of the past dynasties.
Even if we receive the emperor’s orders, he can’t do anything to us.”
"As a result, Sima Daozi soon ran out of military food supplies, and there were no human resources available. To put it bluntly, the manor and people in Wudi are all controlled by the aristocratic families. If we don't cooperate, then he won't be able to receive it.
Regarding taxes, even the salaries of hundreds of officials in the capital may not be able to be paid, let alone the tens of thousands of Beifu troops who support Liu Laozhi. Later, he wanted to recruit subordinates and recruited the villagers from Wu to join the army. In fact, it was not necessarily possible.
If he really wants to build an army by himself, it is more likely that he will let these villagers go to Huainan, Jiangbei and other places that he can still control to open up wasteland and cultivate land. With about 100,000 strong men, he can at least supply tens of thousands of troops with military provisions.
, there is still no problem.”
Tao Yuanming's face changed slightly: "It turns out he was looking for men to farm the land. I mean, how can he fight with some farmers who have no military qualifications? Liu Laozhi's tens of thousands are left alone.
What kind of genius does it take to come up with the idea of building an army by yourself without using the Tiger Wolf Beifu Army? It seems that Sima Yuanxian is smarter than I thought. He obviously wanted to build an army, but actually found people to farm the land.
"
Yu Yue laughed: "It's just that he died because of his little cleverness. Even if we, the noble family, couldn't clearly reject him, because he threatened us with the matter of hiding people in hiding, we had no choice.
We can only pretend to issue these edicts to see if these villagers voluntarily join the army. We originally thought that they were strong men who were unwilling to join the army and stay away from their hometowns, so they fled, but we did not expect that there were actually monsters and thieves causing trouble.
Just let these bankers rebel and rebel. This is the origin of Sun En's rebellion."
Tao Yuanming sighed: "Although Sima Yuanxian is not very old, he actually has a lot of evil in his belly. He lets these villagers work in the fields, and in the future he can control these people and become the soldiers of the Sima family.
And because they are farming in Liu Laozhi's residence, he can slowly integrate these people into the Beifu Army and then penetrate into Liu Laozhi's sphere of influence. Over time, he may win over Liu Yi. Why?
Wuji and other young generals went to seize the power of Liu Laozhi and other old commanders. Although Liu Laozhi had the ability to run the army and fight, he lacked the ability to govern. In the future, they could be isolated and promoted openly and secretly, and given some high-ranking officers.
In this way, as long as there is a new generation of Beifu Army generals who want to be promoted, Sima Yuanxian can always control the Beifu Army and replace them batch by batch. This is what I said,
Gives people hope for advancement.”
Yu Yue swallowed a sip of saliva: "So what you mean by promotion is to move the veteran generals out of the army, and then let the new generation of generals take the positions of the veteran generals. This is to divide and disintegrate these warrior groups.
, let them all focus on the position of commander-in-chief, and they can't form a joint force. But if you really want to become the commander-in-chief, and you can't sit there for a few days, you can transfer the army openly and covertly. This is how to control the Beifu Army.
What a way."
Tao Yuanming smiled slightly: "Actually, Liu Yu is doing the same thing now. After the success of Jianyi, his comrades and brothers went to various major states to become governors, but they also left the front-line troops, those military leaders, and brigade commanders.
, was given to the new generation of young generals and marshals. When Liu Yi came to his senses, he found that juniors like Tan Daoji, Wang Zhene, and even Meng Huaiyu had begun to threaten his position. As for Liu Yu, he was stable
Sitting in the position of the chief general of the North Mansion, he controls the army of the whole country. The power in the court is controlled by Liu Muzhi and Wang Miaoyin through the Xie family, and issues orders. In this way, the power can be maintained forever. "
Yu Yue gritted his teeth: "So, the only way is to put Liu Yu's Northern Expedition into a stalemate and in trouble, as you said before, to undermine his prestige, especially to make the soldiers realize that following Liu Jinu will not only put their lives in danger, but
You may not be able to get the promotion you want. If you continue to fight despite being disappointed, then the whole army will mutiny and the warriors may be driven out of power."
Tao Yuanming laughed: "Yes, this is what we want. Just like what Sima Yuanxian did back then, it aroused the anger of the people. He thought he could save the people from the manor of the aristocratic family and allow them to escape from the unknown.
He thought that this would save them from the miserable situation of being slaves for generations, but he did not consider whether these people wanted it or not."
"For the tenant farmers, although they are nameless under the rule of aristocratic families, there is always the risk of being evicted from their jobs, and the daily work is also difficult, but in any case, they do not have to risk their lives on the battlefield, nor do they have to bear any responsibility.
Although the government's heavy taxes may lead to a better life, it may also be worse than it is now. After decades or hundreds of years, they have become accustomed to this kind of life, and they have to risk their lives.
, leaving their hometown and going to the north to face the unknown future, they will never think that this is a happy thing, they will only feel fear and fear. At this time, as long as someone comes out to cause trouble and exaggerate the risks of the future, it will easily cause a big disaster.
There was unrest and mutiny on a massive scale."
"Sun En just played this role. Originally, the Five Pecks of Rice Dao and the Tianshi Dao were widely spread among the people at the bottom. With this opportunity, a large number of people gathered on the road, and there were no villagers from aristocratic families who were familiar with them to escort and escort them.
Their guards in the capital often beat and scolded these bankers with fists and kicks. At this time, as long as a small group of Tianshi Tao swordsmen sneaked into these crowds, they could take the lead in killing soldiers and beheading schools, and the whole team became a
The rebellion started in Ludi, and then, by turning back and attacking the arsenals of the prefectures and counties, they could capture the city and occupy the territory. This is why in ten months, all eight counties in Wudi fell, and the rebels suddenly numbered hundreds of thousands!" (
