Chapter 5316 If you want to survive, send yourself as a slave

Doupeng said coldly: "Liu Yi is not an idle person. He has been in the military for many years and still has a large number of subordinates who are loyal to him and always follow his lead. Moreover, even in a Jiankang city, he can have tens of thousands of subordinates.

It is impossible for the underground legion to not be deployed elsewhere. Although Liu Yu now has the upper hand and can suppress him and deny him the opportunity to make great achievements, it is not easy to seize his army and remove him from his official position.

.”

"What's more, Liu Yi is getting closer and closer to the aristocratic family. In the past, he might have needed Liu Tingyun to help him make friends with the aristocratic family, but now Liu Tingyun is dead, and this year, he has been staying in Jiankang City.

Instead, he had the opportunity to socialize and meet many upstarts. There were buddies and allies like Xie Hun and Xi Sengshi who helped introduce him. There were also many aristocratic families who were not so satisfied with Liu Yu, or were not so satisfied with Xie Daoyun and Wang Miaoyin.

, I want to find another big shot in the military as an ally."

Kumarajiva hesitated for a moment and said: "But Liu Yi has completely lost power in this war of Tianshi Dao. Aren't you Gao Yiren, a noble family in the Eastern Jin Dynasty in the south, always only following the powerful? Why did you side with the weak at this time?

And on the loser side?”

Doupeng laughed: "Because this strong man will not give them the rewards they want just because of their surrender and loyalty. Liu Yu is an idealist. For the Northern Expedition, he must concentrate the manpower and material resources of the whole country.

, the whole country must strive for this goal. This is fundamentally in conflict with the idea of ​​most noble families who just want to occupy their current position, use the power in their hands, live in a dream, and enslave the people. They

If you want to concentrate your Chinese power on big things, you have to force the noble families to hand over their land, manors, and the bankers and tenants they control. Do you think the noble families can agree?"

Kumarajiva frowned: "But according to the system of military merit and nobility, didn't Liu Yu also allow the children of these aristocratic families to join the army, get some military merit, obtain titles and official positions, and continue to be in power?"

Doupeng sneered and said: "These are just expedient measures. They are just some compromises and concessions made when Liu Yu's power is insufficient. According to this system, after this war to pacify Tianshi Dao is over, a large number of soldiers will be

After all, there are only a few children from aristocratic families who can get promotions and titles for meritorious service on the battlefield. If they don't go to war or make new achievements, the title will expire and be reduced, and the land and manors other than the title will have to be given up.

Those soldiers who have made meritorious deeds, so as long as Liu Yu keeps fighting, the military group will gain more and more power. On the contrary, the nobles of the aristocratic family will have to be forced to do so even if they want to give their nephews a chance to make military achievements.

Handing over extra money, food and weapons, and mobilizing tenant farmers to join the army is tantamount to making wedding clothes for others."

"In the past, the senior members of the aristocratic families did not realize this. They thought that Liu Yu was just like other warlord leaders who just wanted to borrow some military exploits to become a member of the aristocratic family. Especially since Liu Yu had an affair with Wang Miaoyin before.

After the engagement, they thought that Liu Yu was just a person like Huan Wen who wanted to become a noble family first, and then use the help of the big family to usurp power and seize the throne and become king on his own. But now they discovered that Liu Yu's Northern Expedition was serious, regardless of

Will he follow Huan Wen's path in the future, but now, he wants to seize the fundamental interests of the aristocratic family, take their manor, family property, population, and even go on to seize the titles and official positions of the children of the aristocratic family."

Kumarajiva smiled and said: "This is impossible. Liu Yu's troops are all rough warriors who cannot read a few characters. They cannot govern the country. If you want to govern the world and manage the countryside, you still have to rely on educated talents.

Okay, this is where the confidence of the noble family lies. Even in our north, why the Hu regime has to be polite to the Han nobles? This is also why."

Doupeng laughed and said, "Master monk, I'm afraid you don't know yet. Liu Yu secretly wants to set up a public school, Xiangxu, which is to allow the children of ordinary people to read and practice calligraphy, and master knowledge and culture. Early on.

It was carried out in Jingkou for a few years, and the middle and lower class Confucian scholars were allowed to teach and study to the children of the Eighth Party of Beijing Party in Jingkou. Later, the aristocratic families found out about it and strongly opposed it. In order to exchange for the support of grain and grass during the Northern Expedition to Southern Yan, Liu Yu

They had no choice but to give up this plan and closed the Xiangxu in Jingkou. However, after destroying Nanyan, they continued to set up the Lanxiang Official School in the name of teaching Sinology to the Xianbei people of Nanyan, saying that it was to train people to govern Qingzhou.

officials, but actually I also want to find people other than the children of the aristocratic families to manage the people. You said, once ordinary people can read and write official documents, what will the children of the aristocratic families do?"

Kumarajiva's eyes widened: "This Liu Yu really wants everyone to be equal and completely replace the high-ranking family. The high-ranking family will definitely not cooperate with him anymore. If he comes back to Liu Yi like this

As a general in the army, it is inevitable to compete with Liu Yu, but Liu Yu now has all the power in the world. If I really piss him off, will he also eradicate the high-ranking families?"

Doupeng smiled slightly: "It depends on their subsequent development. Tao Yuanming was foresighted in this regard. He took the initiative to help Yu Yue, a young man from an aristocratic family, in this counter-rebellion. It may also be to form an alliance with Liu Yi after the war.

I have made some preparations, but I am not optimistic about this. With Liu Yi's arrogance and vengefulness, he will not look down on Yu Yue. In the future, it is more likely that he will want to annex the soldiers and horses in Yu Yue's hands and make them his own. In fact,

, in my opinion, if Liu Yi can come together with the Sima royal family and join forces with the royal family headed by Sima Dewen, there may be greater hope."

Kumarajiva nodded with satisfaction and said: "Exactly, as long as Liu Yu is an official of the Jin Dynasty, he must be loyal to the Sima family. This is determined by his status, otherwise he is disloyal. If he is disloyal, what about the Northern Expedition?"

Your righteous name is gone. When Murong Chui was still in black robe, he asked me to take in Sima Guofan as a banner to fight against Liu Yu. Now, you should find another banner of the Sima clan within the Jin Kingdom.

Already."

Doupeng nodded: "Exactly, the two forces mentioned above are fighting against Liu Yu openly, from above, or from the same position. However, it is difficult for these high-ranking powerful people to truly pose a threat to Liu Yu.

Threat, because the source of Liu Yu's strength is the common people and the entire army. Their number is far greater than that of the nobles and generals at the top. Therefore, the only way we can really shake Liu Yu's foundation is to expose his tactics.

The guise of seeking benefits for the people allows people like Huiyuan to preach to the people at the bottom, making them believe that what Liu Yu brings them is not happiness and a better future, but more pain and death.

Their bones paved a road leading to the throne, or leaving a name in history. If you want to live, send slaves instead!" (End of Chapter)
