Now Liu Ming finally understood the purpose of the Wuhuan ethnic groups' joint protest.
These Wuhuan people simply failed to rob, but were taken care of by Lu Bu. Moreover, the strong men sent by the tribe to rob were all captured by Lu Bu and sold into slavery. Even the gathering points of some small tribes were also captured by Lu Bu.
Lu Bu took it. All the horses, cattle, sheep and other materials they were grazing were also confiscated by Lu Bu. These small forces could not defeat Lu Bu, and the large forces were afraid of being damaged in the battle with Lu Bu, so they
Others could take advantage of them, so none of their individual tribes were responsible for Lu Bu. But if they united to send troops, they were afraid that Liu Ming would be dissatisfied with them in the end, which would give them an excuse to attack them. Therefore, these Wuhuan tribes wanted to
Join forces to have fun and force Liu Ming to vomit out the tribesmen captured by Lu Bu, as well as the horses, cattle and sheep confiscated, and other materials they lost, and pay appropriate compensation.
Liu Ming handed the intelligence file to Guo Jia with a smile, and said: "The ideas of these Wuhuan people are quite interesting. They come to our territory to rob. It is natural and a national habit. We will win."
In the end, you have to be kind to them and compensate them for their losses. Whose principle is this?"
As Liu Ming opened his mouth, Zhang Fei was the first to jump out and said: "That's right, that's right. They came to our land to cause trouble, and they dared to tell us not to fight back. They're so stupid! Brother, that Lu Bu will do it this time
That's right! We should treat these uncivilized barbarians a tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye!"
But before Liu Ming could express his position on Zhang Fei's statement, Cai Yong stood up and said: "Third general, this is unacceptable. I think our dynasty is a heavenly dynasty, a country of etiquette! How can we compete with those ignorant people like them?"
The general wisdom of the barbarians is that since those barbarians know that they are wrong, we will return those things to them. In this way, the world will be at peace and the people will be comfortable. This is the style of the heavenly kingdom."
Although Zhang Fei is a straight-tempered person with a bad temper, he has been disciplined by his father and teachers since he was a child. He has always been very polite to the clan officials and other class officials. Moreover, Cai Yong is the father-in-law of his eldest brother Liu Ming, especially
After Zhang Fei gave Cai Yong a hard time, Zhang Xiuer returned the favor. Therefore, when Cai Yong came forward to speak, Zhang Fei just stepped aside.
Zhang Fei became silent, and other generals did not dare to speak. As for the civil servants, seeing Cai Yong speaking like this, they all agreed that what Cai Yong said was reasonable. However, some civil servants had different opinions.
view.
At this time, Chen Lin, one of the civil servants, also laughed and said: "A dog has bitten a man. Can we humans bite him back? In that case, how are we different from those beasts? All races in Wuhuan, dogs
Yes! Feed it with money, silk and other things so that it can guard the door for us.
, wouldn’t it be great to round up foxes and rabbits? Although General Lu is brave, the wealth he obtained is just a drop in the ocean to us in Youzhou. If you don’t like what you get, throw it away. Give those secular things back to these bastards
People, and we can enjoy peace, why not?"
As Chen Lin's words fell to the ground, everyone felt that Cai Yong and Chen Lin were on the same page. After a while, Liu Ming's ministers no longer had any objections. Instead, there was a chorus of approval. It was not Liu Ming.
These people under Ming Ming have become fast, but Cai Yong and Chen Lin are now too famous in Youzhou.
First of all, since Cai Yong took charge of the editor-in-chief of [Youzhou Shuwan], with the release of various books and publications of [Youzhou Shuwan], Cai Yong's reputation in Youzhou has skyrocketed. Originally, that
Cai Yong is a contemporary great Confucian, a famous scholar in the world! But now he has the tendency to overtake Zheng Xuan and become the number one scholar in the world.
Secondly, since Chen Lin took over the position of editor-in-chief of [Youzhou Current Affairs Newspaper], with the publication of several articles by Chen Lin, Chen Lin is also famous in Youzhou for her sharp writing style, which is daunting. As a result, she has become famous in Youzhou.
Zhou. To be honest, among the literati and poets in Youzhou, there is really no one who dares not to be afraid of Chen Lin’s pen. If Chen Lin writes some praise, praise or something to others, then it will be
That's all. Although Chen Lin's writing will be extraordinary, unconventional, and wonderful, it will only make people happy and feel good. It will never make people feel scared or convinced by Chen Lin.
But it would be a big deal if Chen Lin belittled a person. Then Chen Lin could really talk about a person's ancestors in ancient times, all the way to his son.
Sun Wandai! The rigorous research and detailed reasoning in it make people extremely convinced. Especially Chen Lin's newspaper has a large circulation and people like to read it. After reading it, they will believe it and spread it everywhere. It is also called the euphemistic name.
: How can the things on the paper be deceptive? And if there was no such thing, how could Editor Chen write in such detail and with such a nose and eyes? That’s impossible!
And when this kind of article spreads, the man who was written about has no other choice but to die to thank his ancestors for their heroic spirit. And if that man's ancestor really had something
If Ling were alive, he would probably be so angry that he would jump out of his grave to teach those unfilial descendants a lesson. Therefore, all the literati in Youzhou are not afraid of Chen Lin. And the more learned they are, the more afraid they are.
But Liu Ming was a little unhappy when these people unanimously agreed. To be honest, after Liu Ming inquired about Xun Yu and others, and read the files and information about Lu Bu, Liu Ming had no idea about Lu Bu's bravery and character.
, that's really special love, especially Lu Bu's attitude towards foreigners, he really cares about Liu Ming. Others don't know, but Liu Ming never
Coming from modern times, does he know how much damage the descendants of uncivilized nations in the eyes of the literati in front of him have done to the cultural inheritance and development of the Central Plains? But now none of his subordinates can see this.
, this made Liu Mingde very dissatisfied. Liu Ming couldn't help but glance at his ministers.
But after taking a closer look, Liu Ming felt somewhat comforted. Not all of his ministers agreed. Not to mention his generals, even his important advisers
, and no one has a look that agrees with Cai Yong and Chen Lin.
After listening to what Xun Yu and the others had to say, Guo Jia and Jia Xu had obviously just returned and had insufficient information to express their opinions. Now Guo Jia was concentrating on reading the files given by Liu Ming to understand the whole story in detail. And that
Jia Xu was listening carefully to the speeches of the people around him.
Xun Yu, Xun You and Yang Jun knew what was going on. However, they still did not express support for the speeches of Cai Yong, Chen Lin and others. Instead, they looked confident and sat calmly on both sides.
After Liu Ming felt at ease, he felt a little resentful towards Yang Jun, Xun Yu and others. Liu Mingxin said: It's better for you guys, if you have an idea, don't say it, just use your airs to make me worry? So Liu Ming stared.
Yang Jun glanced at it.
Yang Jun has become a mature man and has cooperated with Liu Ming for many years. What does Liu Ming mean by this glance? Yang Jun trembled in his heart and did not dare to remain calm anymore. He quickly stood up and said: "
My lord, I have other opinions on this matter."
"Speak!" Liu Ming responded, thinking: You old guy is wise, but if you can't come up with a good idea, I will cut off your drinking and make you suffer for a few days.
Yang Jun coughed, moistened his throat, and said slowly: "I think that all the barbarian tribes, since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty promoted the divine power of our dynasty, have all bowed to our dynasty. It can be said that they have been the subjects of our dynasty for a long time.
But since Emperor Heng, this
These barbarians have been spying on the turmoil in our Central Plains, and have gradually become disobedient. They do not pay tribute to their annual stipends, and do not worship. Their ambitions are obvious. In recent years, they have invaded our borders many times. They have harmed the people of our country. They are really gods.
Public outrage! Later, fortunately, Mr. Taiwei governed Youzhou.
This put down the unrest of those barbarians, deterred the ambitions of those barbarians, and signed an alliance with us. But now, they took advantage of the fact that Lord Taiwei was not in Youzhou to rob and cause trouble! This is like a rebellion.
, how can I be spared lightly? General Lu praised me for being quiet.
This is the divine power of the state, which is in line with the will of heaven and the will of the people below. It should be commended! As for the protests of those barbarians, we not only cannot ignore them, but also punish them. In this way, we, Youzhou, can be powerful in all directions and make the barbarians unable to stop.
How dare you feel contempt!"
After Yang Jun finished speaking, Liu Ming was really satisfied. This old guy was in tune with him, and he thought the same thing. He had to have a few drinks with this old guy later. Thinking of this, Liu Ming looked at it happily again
Xun Yu glanced at it and said to himself: Yang Jun has finished speaking, why don't you express your opinion?
Xun Yu was also very cooperative. After Liu Ming read it, he stood up and said calmly: "My lord, I think Yang Lao's words are reasonable. Moreover, this time the Wuhuan ethnic groups jointly protested, then
It should also be a test of their response to our Youzhou bottom line. If we agree with their point of view this time, then they will continue such unscrupulous plundering in the future.
Go down. So we should resolutely attack them at this time. Moreover, those barbarians still use Lord Taiwei's wife to interfere in our Youzhou government affairs, which is even more intolerable and intolerable. Therefore, my subordinates suggest
Kill your Wuhuan concubine who was involved in politics, and at the same time send troops to conquer his clan. Make them remember this lesson, and only in this way can the peace of Youzhou be stabilized."
After Cai Yong had finished speaking to Yang Jun, he felt that what Yang Jun said made some sense. Although he was a country of etiquette, it would be good to appropriately promote the power of his heavenly kingdom. Especially when Xun Yu suggested beheading
Killing Wu Liya was more in line with his wish, so he no longer objected, but agreed and said: "Wen Ruo is right. What he said makes sense. I agree."
Liu Ming immediately had a headache, and thought to himself: After all this talk, my wife is blamed again? Although Wu Liya is far worse to Liu Ming than Zhang Xiuer and Cai Yan. But after all, Liu Ming is from modern times.
I came here to please myself and serve Wu Liya.
There is still a certain amount of affection for the person next to him. But what Xun Yu said attracted everyone's approval. At this time, it was hard to get angry. If this made his ministers think that he was a monarch who was greedy for women, what would happen to him?
Future development may be greatly disadvantaged.
However, just when Liu Ming was in trouble, the savior arrived. Guo Jia finally finished reading the file in his hand and stood up to speak.
Then Guo Jia himself is a talented person. Although Guo Jia has always boasted that he has been among thousands of flowers, not even a leaf has touched him. But Guo Jia has no good impression of the harsh methods of urging flowers. Guo Jiaxin said: Regarding the war,
Why imprison a little girl? She ran out to interfere in the government affairs. It was because she was ignorant and was instigated by others. As long as the people in power ignored her, what role could she have? Therefore, Guo Jia casually gave the file to Jia
Xu said to Liu Ming: "My Lord, what Wen Ruo said is reasonable. But when Wu Liya was given to you as a concubine, it was a sign of loyalty to you by the Wuhuan people and a way to connect you with them.
a tie of covenant
Although the Wuhuan tribes are plundering various places in western Liaoning, they also followed our orders to attack the Gongsun family. Now that they were defeated by General Lu, they did not immediately unite and rebel.
Instead, they followed the legal channels of our Youzhou and came to jointly protest. Therefore, although these Wuhuan tribes are guilty, they will not be punished to death! Moreover, the lord has already had a comprehensive strategy to deal with the Wuhuan tribes, and now he rashly kills his concubine
room
, conquering his clan may also ruin the lord's plan. Moreover, if this matter becomes serious, it will inevitably force the Wuhuan clans to join forces to fight against us Youzhou. Although our Youzhou now has strong troops and horses, we are not afraid of Wuhuan.
It is absolutely undesirable for the various races to join forces and waste so much in vain. Besides, if we were the first to break the covenant in this matter, we would also break our trust and be ridiculed by the heroes of the world. Therefore, Jia
It is suggested that it is better to scold all the Wuhuan tribes and order them to repent. As for the lord's concubine, it cannot be killed. But since it cannot be killed, then she is of no importance and can be dealt with according to the lord's family.
.”
At this time, Jia Xu also finished reading the file in his hand and said calmly: "My lord, I also think that the protests of the Wuhuan tribes are irrelevant. Just like Mr. Xun said, they are just the protests of the Wuhuan tribes."
It's just a test of the bottom line of our response in Youzhou. The way Commander Guo handled it is enough. But what is worrying is General Lu. General Lu made the decision to send troops without authorization.
They invaded various places and even recruited troops without permission. Such behavior is really counter-intuitive and must be guarded against. Moreover, I have heard about General Lu’s behavior and his humble position. He is of Hu origin and is greedy for money and lust. He once killed his father and killed
He hired Ding Yuan, the governor of Bingzhou, to seek refuge with Dong Zhuo and seek wealth and honor. This man can be said to be a slave of the third surname, a jackal, and cannot be trusted, so please ask the Taiwei to find him early."
