Chapter 5105 The exchange of interests is not hereditary
Liu Yu looked into Wang Miaoyin's eyes motionlessly and said seriously: "From the bottom of your heart, are you willing to hand over these new territories to the noble families? I know these conditions were proposed to you by the wealthy families.
, conveyed to me through you, but what do you think?"
Wang Miaoyin said calmly: "Does it matter what I think? In this matter, we have almost no other choice, unless..."
At this point, she hesitated to speak. Looking at Liu Yu's face, her brows furrowed slightly. Finally, she said, "Unless you change a candidate they are satisfied with to serve as the governor of these places.
Then use this person's shogunate to absorb the children of these aristocratic families, so that these places will not fall into the hands of the aristocratic families forever. However, this candidate they trust will inevitably become your biggest opponent in the country in the future.
It may even cause division within your Beifu Army, you know who I’m talking about.”
Liu Yu sighed softly: "So, Xie Hun and Xi Sengshi have already continued to negotiate terms with Liu Yi, and he will come forward to take over these territories. That's why Liu Yi took the initiative to go out today, just to defeat him.
The land that came down rightfully belongs to him, just like after the Western Expedition, he could definitely capture Jingzhou, but he just wanted to come back to compete with me for power in the DPRK, so he chose Yuzhou nearby."
Wang Miaoyin nodded and said: "Yes, you guessed it right. During the period after the victory in the Battle of Jiankang, Liu Yi and his two allies got very close again. In this battle of defense
, his strength has been restored. He used all the secret underground legions in the capital before, which was less than 20,000 people, but with the help of batches of new recruits from behind, as well as some of the Tianshi Dao army who were originally from him
The old troops defected and surrendered. Now Liu Yi's troops have exceeded 40,000, and they have almost returned to the strength they had when he was the governor of Yuzhou. Of course, the stores of grain, grass and weapons he had in Yuzhou are gone forever.
Already."
Liu Yu said seriously: "So, to maintain his large army, it is not enough to rely on the military rations provided by the government. I have only given Liu Yi 15,000 troops and horses, so the remaining nearly 30,000 people are
Relying on the support from the wealthy families, right? However, Liu Yi's troops are scattered in many places, and some of his troops are not even reported. I didn't bother to check the actual number of his troops. Your information is correct.
?”
Wang Miaoyin smiled slightly: "Of course it is true. In addition to the information obtained by some of my informants, it is also because Liu Yi needs to directly ask Xie Hun and Xi Sengshi for insufficient military rations, so I have no confidence in his strength.
It’s clear, brother Yu, you have to be careful. This time’s Tianshi Dao chaos is actually beneficial to you. It can not only eradicate this big cancer, but also weaken Liu Yi, who has always been the biggest internal opponent. But now
His strength has recovered again, so he once again wants to use his military exploits to rise to the top and take back his previous power. Once he is given command of the Western Expedition or becomes deputy commander, it will be difficult for you to suppress him in the future."
Liu Yu nodded: "Yes, I have realized this, so from beginning to end this time, I did not plan to let him lead the troops to attack again, but planned to leave him in Jiankang to defend the city. As an appeasement, I asked Liu
Fan and Liu Cui went out with Meng Huaiyu and took away 10,000 troops, while the rest stayed in Jiankang as a defense force for the capital. Zhuge Changmin, as the governor of Northern Xuzhou, led his 10,000 troops to garrison in the north of the Yangtze River.
Six counties.”
Wang Miaoyin's eyes flashed: "Aren't you afraid that Liu Yi will suddenly seize power in Jiankang City by doing this?"
Liu Yu shook his head: "At this time, it is impossible for him to do such a thing. Even if he intended to, his soldiers would never do such a treasonous thing. Now you are in the capital, and there are all the heads of the family.
Here, since Liu Yi has already formed an alliance with them, he will not do such unnecessary things. However, this requires that the newly conquered area be governed by Liu Yi according to the conditions you mentioned as his future shelter.
, that is to say, half of Yuzhou in southern Anhui and the entire Jiangzhou will be handed over to him in the future."
Wang Miaoyin shook her head: "But Jiangzhou has been handed over to Yu Yue. If you give it to Liu Yi again, I'm afraid you won't be able to explain it to Yu Yue. Although you didn't give it directly to the governor of Jiangzhou, but to Mu Xia
If you give orders, others will also regard them as your orders, how do you solve this problem?"
Liu Yu's eyes narrowed slightly: "Then let Yu Yue temporarily move to Yuzhou. The part of Yuzhou in Jiangbei will be under his jurisdiction, except for the counties at the junction of northwest Henan and Yongzhou. The fat man has a secret
Tell me, Lu Zong's superior requested that these places be assigned to Lu Gui's jurisdiction as a fiefdom for Lu Gui to leave the town in the future. This was the exchange condition for the Yongzhou Army general Luo Longsheng to be assigned to Yu Yue, so I had no choice but to agree."
Wang Miaoyin sighed: "Mu Zhi said that he is planning to hand over Jingzhou to Liu Yi to manage it in the future, as a condition to balance you and the big family. Have you considered this condition?"
Liu Yu sighed and said: "To be honest, I don't want to give this condition to Xi Le. If he has self-awareness, I can accept it if he goes out to control Guangzhou or leads troops to defeat Qiaoshu and then becomes the governor of Yizhou.
, or become an official in the court, and let Liu Fan and Liu Cui continue to be the governors of Yanzhou and Yuzhou. This is something I can agree with. Jingzhou is too important. If it falls into his hands, if he establishes a hereditary vassal state based on Jingzhou,
, or even provokes the conflict between Jing Yang again, then I can't tolerate him, even if we are brothers for many years, we can only meet with swords."
Wang Miaoyin's expression turned serious: "Are you planning to attack Liu Yi? Is this serious?"
Liu Yu's eyes flashed coldly: "Of course it is true. The land of Jingzhou can only belong to the country, and there cannot be another Huanchu regime. If Liu Yi is in Jingzhou, my bottom line is that I can let him separatist power there.
, it doesn’t matter if he doesn’t pay taxes to the court. As long as he is willing to join me in the Northern Expedition to defeat the Huru and regain the lost land, then I am willing to share the world with him. But if he regards Jingzhou as his family’s private property, he wants to be like the Huan family.
Separating the empire from generation to generation and passing it down from generation to generation is completely contrary to my ideal of the world being a common people and everyone being like a dragon. Even brothers in life and death will become mortal enemies that have to be eliminated. Miaoyin, you let me go on this journey
This road to the emperor wants me to do this, right?"
Wang Miaoyin smiled slightly: "I like Brother Yu like this. In the future, when he serves as governor in various major states, the only people who can guard one side are your sons or brothers. Anyone else cannot be trusted!" (This chapter)
