Chapter 5395 Separatism and self-reliance seek death
Xuanwu's eyes sparkled and he was deep in thought, while Qinglong said coldly: "Master Baihu, so you agree with us taking the initiative to settle in other places like Yu Yue?"
Bai Hu smiled slightly: "In the past, we couldn't control Jiangzhou, and the upstream counties of Jingzhou, and we didn't really control Qingzhou, but now, we can actually control these places, why not take advantage of our family business
, the power has expanded to other places. Do we really have to stay in Wudi for eternity?"
Qinglong shook his head: "Now is different from the past. Back then, we were dozens or hundreds of Nandu families, united as one, and gathered together to fight against the powerful landlords in Wudi. We also used various means to divide and disintegrate them.
, and finally drove them out of the center of power, and then gained the dominance of Wu. However, like Yu Yue, his family ran to Jiangzhou and Jingzhou, like a small river flowing into the ocean. Not only was it impossible to occupy the local power all at once,
, but it will cause various local powerful forces to join forces to exclude and target them.”
"The Yu family itself is not a very capable and resourceful family. Yu Yue himself is a typical playboy. He relied on the legacy of his father and ancestors to become a famous family, and the other nephews are even worse than him.
There are many, but there is no ability to speak of. When we were in Wu, there were other families taking care of each other, the power of Yu Yue and others when they were officials, and the division and order of forces in Wu for hundreds of years, no one dared to
Or maybe you are willing to have a head-on conflict with their family, but it’s hard to say in Jingzhou or Jiangzhou.”
Suzaku agreed: "Yes, if Yu Yue becomes the governor of Jiangzhou and has a Jiangzhou legion, he may be able to suppress the local tycoons from all over Jiangzhou and force them to offer their land and allegiance. But as we discussed just now, I'm afraid
Liu Yi would directly take over Yu Yue's official position, and even his troops. Yu Yue's loss of power would only lead to a joint attack by the major indigenous powerful people. So these days, Yu Yue has been in Jingzhou in the name of suppressing bandits and countering rebellion.
, all the crimes of plundering and plundering in various places in Jiangzhou, harming the public and enriching private interests, will be brought to the court. Mr. Baihu, if the Yu family loses everything because of this, and the territory in other places is not recovered, and even the territory in Wu is lost, these
Is this the external expansion you want?”
Bai Hu smiled slightly: "How do you know if you don't give it a try? If you change the angle, Liu Yi, who can annex Yu Yue, will become the new noble family sooner or later. Then if Liu Yi comes to Wu, even
If we are in Jiankang, why don’t we take over our territory and occupy our property? Over the past ten years, more than half of our households’ properties in Jiankang have been given to Liu Yi to take care of, or
It's joint management, right? Those members of the underground army, when they work as vendors, businessmen, and shopkeepers of vegetable shops, don't these shops all belong to us? Who are we to make fun of Yu Yue?
"
Qinglong looked at Xuanwu angrily: "Mr.
It is said that Liu Yi will become one of us one day, because he at least wants this family to be the world. Now Lord Baihu is right, Liu Yi has robbed a lot of our industry, what will we do in the future?"
Xuanwu said calmly: "At this time, at that time, it was the beginning of the founding of the Yi Dynasty. Huan Xuan had already taken a lot of these properties. Even if we didn't cooperate with Liu Yi, he and Zhuge Changmin could use them themselves.
The power in our hands is taken as our own in the name of dealing with the reversal of production. We have to do it as a last resort. Therefore, in the final analysis of this matter, having no soldiers in our hands equals to having no power. The reason why I have talked about the army with Mr. Baihu for so long
Isn't it because we must first take back military power and control the military before we can get back everything we have lost? Now it seems that Liu Yi cannot become one of us and help us regain the lost power.
Yeah, we have to find another way."
Zhuque said in surprise: "Liu Yi can't cooperate? He has been in Jiankang for most of the past six months, but he has become very close to Xie Hun, Xi Sengshi and the others. He still wants to become a noble from a high-class family to compete with Liu Yu
Woolen cloth."
Xuanwu shook his head: "Because of this, he is taking a dead end. Lord Baihu is right. At this time, if Liu Yi wins over high-ranking nobles and openly confronts Liu Yu, he may even want to follow Huan Wen's old path.
, to occupy Jingzhou, split and stand on its own, that is to seek death. Liu Yu can tolerate everything, but he cannot tolerate someone supporting his own troops, splitting the big state, and once again forming a situation of confrontation between Jingzhou and Yang. Therefore, Liu Yi thought he was pulling
A few aristocratic families can act as a helping hand to fight against Liu Yu, but in fact, the more he does this, the more Liu Yu will be tempted to kill him, because the times and conditions have changed."
Bai Hu said solemnly: "Yes, when the Big Three were back then, the combined strength of Liu Yi and He Wuji exceeded that of Liu Yu, and they could form a two-on-one advantage. Although He Wuji had a good relationship with Liu Yu,
If Liu Yu wanted to reduce his military power and seize his legion, he would never sit still and wait for death. He would definitely stand with Liu Yi. Therefore, Liu Yu later secretly supported Liu Daogui and Liu Jingxuan and made them governors of a large state.
Turning one-on-two into three-on-two to regain the advantage, the Northern Expedition to Southern Yan can be seen as establishing a new territory for Liu Jingxuan in a large state."
Qinglong laughed: "That's why Liu Jingxuan listened to Liu Yu's words and was so grateful. Indeed, this Qingzhou was given to him by Liu Yu, and it was normal for him to go back. However, now that He Wuji is dead, Liu Yi suddenly discovered that the original
There are not many giants left. Most of the old brothers of the same generation have either died or retired. Now the people commanding the major legions are mostly young marshals and generals who are rising stars. And these people actually want to fight against the older generation like Liu Yi and Liu Jingxuan.
The generals fought against each other, or even replaced them."
Bai Hu nodded: "Yes, so the more anxious Liu Yi is to seize territory and become independent, not only will Liu Yu not be able to tolerate him, but these rising stars will not let go of the opportunity to defeat him. Once Liu Yi really goes to places like Jiangzhou and Jingzhou, with
Xie Hun in the court, Xi Sengshi and others stayed away instead. It seemed that they were benefiting, but in fact they put themselves in a dangerous situation. Even if Liu Yu really wanted to attack him, he would not receive the news and react.
On this matter, we cannot side with Liu Yi, otherwise we will be finished with him."
Qinglong sighed: "But Xie Hun, Xi Sengshi and the others are still members of our aristocratic family, so why don't we notify them?" ()
