Chapter 5144 What confidence does a whole family have to move?
Bai Hu said calmly: "I don't know about this, because the people who introduced these Qiang horse thieves into various Di tribes were the leaders of the merchant caravans. Many Qiang thieves were the transporters of the caravans disguised as these caravans."
Goods guys, those who enter these tribes will, of course, never leave once they enter."
Qinglong frowned: "Then if we find the leaders of these caravans and conduct rigorous questioning, we can find out who is protecting these Qiang thieves, or even find out clues about these Tiandao Alliance?"
Bai Hu shook his head, sighed, and said: "It's not that easy. After the Battle of Jingzhou, Liu Muzhi once used the confessions of Qiang captives to find the caravans that took them into these Di tribes, but these
The caravans disappeared mysteriously, and the few shops opened in Han towns were closed early and empty. Obviously, those were just peripheral organizations of the Tiandao Alliance, which had completed the task of fostering the Qiang army.
After the mission, he disappeared without a trace and all traces were erased."
"As for those Di tribes, the Qiang and Di have the same origin. Although in their view, the Qiang are more backward and primitive than them, but in Han Chinese areas like Jingzhou, they are also people in distress, and their living customs are similar. In addition, there are
Due to the common pressure of survival, they huddled together to keep warm. The Qiang thieves helped these Di tribes repel the incoming mountain barbarians, and the spoils of war and the plundered women belonged to the Qiang thieves. Out of caution, they did not
How to start a war with Han villages, so those battles in the mountains and forests are often difficult for even the government to detect, and to the higher-level court, they only report that everything is safe. This is the reason why these Qiang thieves can spend the year safely."
Xuanwu sighed: "No one would have thought that after Gou Lin's death, his subordinates would definitely flee back to their hometown in Longyou. But I didn't expect that there are thousands of Qiang thieves hiding in the Di tribe in Jingzhou.
However, this also shows that the imperial court's control over Jingzhou is extremely low. If the demon thieves are eliminated, many Jiangnan aristocratic families will have to move to Jingzhou. Only the children of our aristocratic families can effectively and stably control these.
Mountain village.”
At this point, Xuanwu frowned: "By the way, you two, Yu Yue has recently sold off his properties and transferred most of the manors in Wu to other families or to other branches of the Yu family, and saved a lot of money.
With a lot of money, food and weapons, I got myself the position of Jiangzhou Governor and Jianwu General. Moreover, most of the Yu family’s nephews and nephews also came out this time, preparing to join the Jiangzhou Army in the name of Lord Baihu and Lord Qinglong.
, what do you two think?"
Qinglong said in a deep voice: "Yu Yue has given everything he has this time. The losses he suffered last time in Jiangzhou were too great. Not only was the initial investment lost, but he also became the laughing stock of the family. If he can't make new achievements,
If we regain the official title, we may not even be able to save the existing manor. After all, the rules of the game among our aristocratic families are that the strong get stronger and the weak are eliminated. The Yu family has gradually become a second-rate family in the past few decades.
If you fail to catch up, you may run the risk of being kicked out of the Jiankang family."
Bai Hu nodded and said: "Exactly, and the identity of Yu Yue's fake mafia guarding Qinglong has also been exposed. Although Liu Yu said that he would not pursue it anymore and allowed them to exist, in his heart he must no longer care about Yu Yue.
Trust, after all, when Liu Yu went to conquer Nanyan, he took Yu Yue with him, which shows that he has trust in him. He is the most trusted head of the family besides Mrs. Xie and Queen Wang. However, it turns out that Yu Yue is the mastermind of Qiankun
member, opposed him behind the scenes, and also colluded with Liu Tingyun. This person's political life may have ended with Liu Yu, so I think the reason why Yu Yue was uncharacteristically still fighting in Jiangzhou for more than a year after Liu Yi's defeat,
And after this operation completely failed, he continued to bet everything on the Yu family in order to make a last-ditch effort. I think Yu Yue is already ready to leave Wudi in the south of the Yangtze River and turn to run Jiangzhou and Jingzhou."
Xuanwu smiled slightly: "Yu Yue is out of town now, and I can't communicate with him, so I don't know what he thinks. Even the Yu family members in Jiangnan don't know what Yu Yue himself thinks. It's just that
Following his instructions, everyone in the Yu family is now in a state of panic, and they don't know where the future will lead. But one thing is certain, they have lost most of their manor and family property, and many people have even no place to stay, and they have gathered in
The Yu family lived in a large house in the capital, and under such circumstances, the Yu family's nephews were asked to go out with the army to find an opportunity to join the Jiangzhou Army. I think that Yu Yue did give up his family business in Wudi and go to
Jingzhou’s plan to start over.”
Qinglong frowned: "How can you see that? The Yu family has a century-old family business in Jiangnan. Although he once served as the governor of Jingzhou, he was replaced by Huan Wen within a few years, and all the properties in Jingzhou were lost.
Most of the sons and nephews of the Yu family who were captured by Huan Wen and stayed in Jingzhou were executed on various charges. It can be said that the power of the Yu family has long been wiped out in Jingzhou and Jiangzhou. What is the purpose of going to Jingzhou at this time?
?”
Xuanwu nodded and said: "But the enemy Huan Wen's power in Jingzhou and Jiangzhou was wiped out, and the imperial court's foundation in Jingzhou has never been stable. Liu Daogui led his army to station in Jingzhou before.
I originally thought of relying on what Liu Yu had envisioned before, where veterans and soldiers from the army returned to their hometowns and served as township officials to control the grassroots, but this method would not even work in the north of the Wudi River, let alone in Jingzhou."
"Most of the soldiers of the Jingzhou Western Expedition Corps will return to Jingkou after their service period is over. Almost no one is willing to stay in Jingzhou. Even if a few veterans who are promoted to officers are willing to settle in Jingzhou, most of them will be in Jiangling or Shashi.
People living in big towns like Ma Tou and Changsha are not willing to leave the towns and go down to the grassroots villages, and there is no place for them in those places."
"So the idea of relying on a mere 10,000 soldiers as officials to control the grassroots in Jingzhou failed completely. Liu Daogui was finally forced to cooperate with the local gentry in Jingzhou and give them various privileges from the Huanchu era.
In exchange for them to govern the grassroots areas on behalf of the imperial court. This is Liu Yu's failure, but it may not be an opportunity for our aristocratic family, and Yu Yue was the first person to see this."
Qinglong shook his head in disbelief: "I don't quite believe this. Yu Yue is a well-known young master. He is greedy for enjoyment and afraid of challenges and changes. He is reluctant to join the army and make achievements. This is where the whole family moved.
In this sad place where the Yu family almost came to an end, how could he have the confidence?" (End of Chapter)
