Chapter 896: Seeking wealth, fame and fame on the battlefield
Liu Yu stood up in surprise: "What, directly allocate land to the soldiers? This, this is too courageous, the imperial court does not have such laws!"
Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "The imperial court has no laws for buying and selling officials, so how did brother Diao Kui become the governor of South Xuzhou? Any laws on the surface are dead, but those who enforce the law are alive. The Xie family
As long as the soldiers of the Northern Expedition can serve as officials, and the captives are given to them as slaves and tenants like last time, they will naturally be able to control the newly occupied land. The soldiers of the Beifu Army who have benefited will naturally be grateful to the Xie family.
In this way, in these newly occupied territories, we only know Xie Xianggong and not Emperor Sima."
Liu Yu was silent for a while, and then sighed: "No wonder everyone came here as soon as they were called together. It turns out there is such a benefit."
Liu Muzhi nodded: "Yes, you have not been in Jingkou in the past two years. You don't know the life that the old brothers are living now. Everyone originally came from a poor background, has no fixed place to live, and is homeless, so they are not afraid of heaven and earth.
Not afraid, because there is nothing left except a dead life, but in the past two years, everyone has their own fields and houses in Jingkou or the six counties of Jiangbei, and there are more or less a few prisoners of the Qin State.
When you become a banker of your own family, you don’t even have to do the farming yourself. This kind of life of a rich farmer or a small landowner has fallen from the sky almost overnight. Who is not jealous, who is not envious?"
Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "So, when they heard that there was an opportunity to go to the north to fight for a larger territory and more slaves, they rushed to it. Even though they knew that the road ahead was dangerous, they had no hesitation, right?
"
Liu Muzhi sighed: "Humans are such strange animals. After receiving benefits and tasting the sweetness, they will think about more and greater benefits and strive for more benefits. Liu Yi is very good at discerning people's hearts.
When he communicated with his brothers, he didn't talk about the righteousness of the family and the country at all, or big talk about regaining the lost land. He only talked about the practical benefits such as glory, wealth, wealth and women. In the Jin Dynasty, there was no land and power that could be divided.
Under the control of aristocratic families, how much benefit can a mere Jingkou bring to tens of thousands of soldiers? If you are not satisfied with spending your life as a peasant woman with some land, and want to be a rich man, you can only go to the north and fight with your own hands.
, not only for myself, but also for future generations!”
Liu Yu's eyes sparkled and he murmured: "Grandma, what you said is so damn good. I wish I could pick up my sword and go to the battlefield right away after hearing this. This guy Xile is really eloquent.
"
Liu Muzhi nodded: "Liu Xile does have this ability. He is not afraid of life and death. He went to Yecheng once, so he was able to make that secret agreement with Jiang Rang. But I'm afraid even he knows that this agreement will probably not be possible."
It will happen. Therefore, he must make plans early to form an army and set out on the road early. After crossing the Yellow River, no matter whether he can get Yecheng as planned or not, there will be no way out. He can only follow him."
Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "I'm not surprised that Liu Xile did this. This guy always takes fame too seriously and is a born gambler. He doesn't even care about his own life, let alone his brothers'. As long as he can do it for him,
To get the power he wants, he won't care about the lives of his brothers. What I'm surprised about is that Marshal Xuan and Mr. Xianggong know this, so why do they insist on risking the future of the Xie family this time and insist on going their own way? "
Liu Muzhi's eyes flashed coldly: "Because of the emperor's attitude, because of the emperor's suspicion, and because of the persecution of other families, the Xie family turned out to be just one of the larger families, or in other words, because of the talent and timing of the husband, he became a famous family.
The leader of an aristocratic family, but in essence, he is still just a leader and cannot be superior to big aristocratic families such as the Wang family and the Yu family."
"So any decision made by Mr. Xianggong in the past must take into account the interests of the entire family, with a slight preference for his own family. Everyone can accept this. In the past hundred years of the Jin Dynasty, not all such families have taken turns to be in power.
It’s a pattern.”
"But this time is different. Before the Battle of Feishui, the formation of the Beifu Army broke the balance. The Xie family suddenly became like the Huan family, with their own army, and became famous because of the Battle of Feishui.
The world has become a first-class powerful army, which itself has aroused the vigilance of other families, so after the Battle of Feishui, the Xie family was forced to disband the Beifu Army, and even in the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains, only a small number of troops were used."
"But Mr. Xianggong did not allocate these newly occupied places to other aristocratic families on the grounds that these places were newly recovered, they were on the border, and there were frequent wars. These places are what I just said. After this battle, if our army can
Once Hebei is recovered, the Central Plains will become inland, and the land can be used to reward meritorious soldiers. The soldiers of the Northern Expedition will definitely get the largest share."
"In this way, the Xie family has manors in the south of the Yangtze River, six counties in the north of the Yangtze River and even the Central Plains. There are also a large number of old Beifu army troops to control these places. Their strength has surpassed that of the Huan family who dominates Jingzhou. Even more powerful is the Xie family.
He also controls the central government. Once the Northern Expedition is successful, Mr. Xian Gong may take the initiative to abdicate and let Xuan Shuai take over the power of Prime Minister. Now, you should be able to understand why Mr. Xian Gong and Xuan Shuai will also gamble on their family fortune and act according to Liu Yi's plan.
Alright."
Liu Muzhi talked endlessly, saying so much in one breath, and he didn't even gasp for breath. For a fat man like him, it was a miracle. But Liu Yu listened so intently that he didn't even say a word.
It was not until Liu Muzhi finished speaking that he sighed: "So that's how it is. I didn't expect that my husband and Commander Xuan would put the interests of the family before the interests of the country in the end. It's a pity, it's such a pity."
Liu Muzhi's eyes were shining brightly: "It cannot be said that the Northern Expedition is a major event for the whole country and the whole nation, and it is a great cause for us Han people. It is very risky to send troops to Hebei now, but it is not without the possibility of success. There is at least five to six
The Xie family is betting, and so is Liu Yi. But if we don’t bet this time, we don’t know how long we will have to wait before we have such a good opportunity. So strategically speaking, I support the Northern Expedition.
But I don’t want to be so aggressive.”
"Jinu, this time you will follow to defend Liyang Ferry. I think this is the request of Liu Yi and even Liu Laozhi. They don't want you to take their credit in the front army, so they let you stay there, but
Although Marshal Xuan has made a compromise, he still hopes that you can guard the key retreat channel for the army. Therefore, your task this time is no lighter than that of Liu Yi and others who are forward."
