Chapter 290: Sunset and Dusk Liangzhou City (42)

Liu Guo stroked his palms and said, "Ah! That's exactly the case, but Liu Yu is now trapped in Shouchun, surrounded by outside, and there are no reinforcements inside. ”

Huan Xuan glanced at Liu Yu suspiciously, and said: "Liu Yu is the Northern Expedition of the country this time, along the way, he will capture the city and recover the land of thousands of miles in Shandong, which can be described as a high degree of hard work, and now a group of bastards in the imperial court do not go to the rescue, and they have already made the army complain. ”

When Liu Guo heard this, he just laughed and said nothing.

Every word and deed of politicians, even an expression, is very meaningful, since Liu Guo does not speak, the meaning is obvious, this is his statement.

"What, Mr. Liu doesn't approve of me going to help Liu Yu?" Huan Xuan asked.

"Hehehehehe. Liu Guo didn't dare. Liu Guo didn't answer directly, but stood up and said, "However, Liu Guo wants to talk about a certain main section of the industry first, for the reference of Nanjun Gong." ”

"Okay, you can do it." Huan Xuan is interested, after all, although this industry has become famous all over the world, but his affairs are mostly hearsay after all, and everyone doesn't count how much credibility there is. Although I can't see it with my own eyes now, it's good to have a core staff member who can talk about it.

Although it is inevitable that his people will always be biased when they say about him, it is also much more credible than the news that has poured a few hands.

Liu Guo smiled and said: "In the past, my lord followed Lu Guang's expedition to the east, Dunhuang surrendered without a fight, Jiuquan stubbornly resisted to the end, my lord fought to the death, successfully attacked and took Jiuquan, so his reputation spread far and wide, but Wu Wei Taishou Peng Feng had already secretly communicated with Lord Lu Guang, trying to work, although my family knew it, but deliberately withheld it, and fought in Shahaizi, breaking Peng's army. After that, he cooperated with Peng Feng and finally won Guzang, which became the first merit of the Eastern Crusade, and because of this, he was named the Dunhuang Taishou by Lord Lu Guang. ”

Liu Guo's words are very short, but the amount of information is really huge.

First of all, Huan Xuan was surprised by Duan Ye's sophistication and ruthlessness, after all, under normal circumstances, if the core figure of the other party surrenders, of course, it is necessary to rush to surrender, first, you can fight for merit, and secondly, you can give grace, after all, whoever is surrendered is equivalent to the benefactor of the other party, how can people repay it, and third, you can take advantage of the situation and get greater credit.

However, Duan Ye's consideration is completely the opposite, which reflects the thoroughness of his thinking.

First of all, the other party's surrender is not necessarily true, it may be a fraudulent surrender, throughout the ages, ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign, how many heroes and heroes have finally been planted on this fraudulent surrender. It is really rare for Duan Ye to be able to stay calm in this situation.

And secondly, even if the other party really surrenders, it is necessary to weaken his strength. After all, Peng Feng is not an ordinary official, but a powerful faction with soldiers and generals in his hands, he went to surrender, originally with a meeting gift, and the meeting gift is also rich, it is conceivable that it will be more and more valued in the future. Such a person is obviously a competitor to Duan Ye.

Such a person, after becoming a minister together, wants to plot against him again, it will be difficult to do, so he can only yin him, and many things are inconvenient to do. But at this time, after all, each is his own master, although you said that you want to surrender, isn't it that you haven't completed the surrender yet, on the battlefield, the sword has no eyes, and it seems understandable to inflict a little bit of damage on your men and horses.

At this time, Huan Xuan had a relatively three-dimensional understanding of Duan Ye, from a humble background, seized a small opportunity to take the position, once he held the military power, he firmly grasped it, and at the critical moment, he went to the blood and went out, and he was ruthless enough, such a person does not come out, who comes out?

Suddenly, Huan Xuan saw Liu Guo's eyes, and suddenly remembered that Liu Guo mentioned this matter, I am afraid that it was not to make himself worship Duan Ye and attach importance to Duan Ye, but to have a deep meaning.

That's right! Just mentioned Liu Yu, and then mentioned Duan Ye's matter, isn't it just a comparison with each other?

Liu Yu is now born as a child, and he is in trouble, so isn't the relationship between himself and Liu Yu also a competitive relationship? We need to compete, but we also need to cooperate for the time being.

After figuring it out, Huan Xuan smiled, and he said sincerely: "Thank you Mr. Liu for your guidance." ”

"Don't dare to be." Liu Guo said busily.

"Make!" Huan Xuan said: "It seems that Mr. Liu thinks that Huan Xuan shouldn't save Liu Yu?" ”

"The point is that even if Nanjun Gong doesn't raise troops to rescue, Liu Yu will be able to get out of trouble this time."

"Oh?" Huan Xuan became interested, "Now the imperial court doesn't send troops at all." Outside Shouchun City, 100,000 Qin troops, if Liu Yu gives up the city and does not want to break through with all his might, with his ability, Fu Rui Xiaoer can't stop him, but if he escapes from the battle like that, this Liu Yu will not have to mix up in the future. ”

"Have you forgotten Xie Xuan?" Liu Guo said.

Huan Xuan suddenly realized, don't say, if it wasn't for Liu Guo's reminder, he would have really forgotten this buddy.

Xie Xuan is still a fake festival now, General Zuo, the governor of Xu, Yan, Qing, Si, Hebei, You, and the military of the seven states, the great victory in the battle of Huangshui made Xie Xuan's prestige skyrocketing, but the faux pas of the Northern Expedition made Xie Xuan suffer a lot of criticism, it is said that Xie Xuan has been closed at home for a long time in order to avoid the limelight.

But although he did not go out, Xie Xuan was always Xie Xuan, and the Beifu Army was always created by him, from the selection of officers, the training of soldiers, the construction of camps, and the raising of military salaries, almost all of them were handled by Xie Xuan himself.

During the period when Xie Xuan was closed, Liu Yu made himself famous because of winning battles in a row in this opportunity, but at this time, if Xie Xuan ascended to the heights, he still had a strong appeal to the Beifu Army. Even if he doesn't have a talisman to transfer troops now.

"Mr. Liu is saying, then Xie Xuan will save Liu Yu?" Huan Xuan still couldn't believe it, for this person with the same name as himself, in fact, Huan Xuan was still very in awe.

"This depends on Duke Xie, if Duke Xie thinks that Liu Yu's defeat is not good for him, then it doesn't matter what the imperial decree is, what other people's opinions are, the trump card in his hand is Xie Xuan, he will definitely let Xie Xuan send troops north. A certain thought that Shouchun was in the territory of the Southern Dynasty after all, and if the Beifu army went north to reinforce it, Fu Rui would not be able to take advantage. Fu Rui is still very cautious, he will not take risks, after all, it is not easy for him to get the power of this 100,000 army. ”

"Listen to your words, let a certain mouth open up!" Huan Xuan said with emotion. It's just that at this time, he suddenly remembered a very serious problem.

According to Liu Guo, he is Duan Ye's staff, but he has been active in Jiangnan all the year round, and listening to Liu Guo's words, he knows everything about Jiangnan's politics, military, people's feelings, factions, and other issues, and he knows a lot of things that insiders don't know, which not only shows that Duan Ye's tentacles are really far away, but also shows that Duan Ye's ambition is really big!

Thinking of this, Huan Xuan also had a trace of vigilance against Liu Guo, and he said with a straight face: "Mr. Liu, Mr. and Mr. Duan, I didn't know each other in the past, and it is also fate to be able to see Mr. today, but Mr. Duan and Mr. So, are not ordinary people, every word and deed, every word and deed, Huan Xuan is not a three-year-old child, Mr. today came to condole, Huan Xuan is grateful and sincere, Mr. Huan Xuan pointed out Huan Xuan, Huan Xuan is also grateful in his heart, and there will be a return, but Huan Xuan does not believe that Mr. came here, just to guide Huan Xuan." ”

Liu Guo nodded calmly and said, "I can't hide it, Liu Guo this time is on the order of my family to give Nanjun Gong a merit and a piece of treasure land." ”

"Oh?" Huan Xuan was a little surprised, "I want to hear about it." ”

"Yizhou." Liu Guo gently spit out two words, and when Huan Xuan heard it, his face became serious.

Yizhou is the real land of abundance, the land of fish and rice, and since Guanzhong was captured by the Hu people, in fact, relatively speaking, it is going downhill, and the wealth of Qinchuan in eight hundred miles has long been inferior to Yizhou. In Yizhou, near Chengdu is a basin, where the Yangtze River and its tributaries flow into the bottom of the basin and then flow eastward out of Sichuan. The alluvium of rivers forms fertile plains, which are very suitable for farming, and there is no shortage of irrigation water, plus the middle generation of Shu, the climate is warm, so the land of Yizhou is rich in products, enough to compare with the other two or three continents. The geographical chronicle of the Book of Han states that Ba, Shu, Guanghan and other places "have fertile land, fertile rivers, mountains and forests, bamboo and trees, vegetables, fruits, and the rao of Jiadian and Yuwei in the south, and Qiong in the west, and horses and cattle in the west." Its treasures include wall jade, gold, silver, beads, blue, copper, iron, lead, tin, ochre, chalk, brocade, embroidery, rhinoceros, elephant, felt, yak, danhuang, empty green, mulberry, lacquer, hemp, ramie. ”

In addition, there are many salt wells in Yizhou, and in this era, with salt, it is equivalent to having money, which is equivalent to having military salaries. And as long as there is a military salary, are you afraid that you will not be able to gather warriors and ministers? It can be said that getting Yizhou is equivalent to getting the richest place.

And compared with other places, Yizhou was developed relatively early. During the Warring States Period, Qin Shu guarded Li Bingying's capital Jiangyan and irrigated fertile land for thousands of miles. During the Qin and Han dynasties, the wealthy merchants of Shu were famous all over the world. At the beginning of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Central Plains was hungry, and the Shu land was "fertile for thousands of miles, the soil was creamy, the fruits were born, and there was no grain and full; The industry of women workers is the world of clothes; Famous bamboo, the rao of the instrument, can not be used; There are also the benefits of fish, salt, copper and iron, and the convenience of floating water. Therefore, when Zhuge Liang Longzhong took countermeasures, he called Yizhou "the land of abundance" and "the people are rich and the country is rich". Even now, Huan Xuan clearly knows that Yizhou is rich and Yangzhou is compatible, and the tax is the most in the world. Although its own Jingzhou has an important strategic position and is a real country of force, its products are far inferior to Yizhou, with more than ten counties in Jingxiang, and the taxes mentioned are less than one-third of Yizhou.

In addition to the abundant products, the strategic position of Yizhou is indeed very important, the reason is very simple, when the north and the south contend, Yizhou according to the upper reaches of the Yangtze River Basin, so the past generations of people who run the world all draw on the upstream trend of Sichuan: to the north to advance to the south, to obtain Sichuan can drive down the river, straight down to the southeast; Use the south against the north to ensure that Sichuan can protect the upstream and ensure the integrity of the situation in the south of the Yangtze River.

Yizhou was the country of Ba and Shu during the Warring States Period. Ba and Shu are divided into Dongchuan and Xichuan. Later, King Qin Hui took advantage of the attack of the two countries of Bashu and sent Sima to lead the army to attack Shu, destroy the Shu State and annex its land. The effect of this wise move of Qin was remarkable, because as soon as he took Shu, Qin's national strength increased rapidly, and it became rich and prosperous, and Qin took Bashu, which not only enhanced its national strength, but also changed the strategic situation against Chu. The land of Bashu has become a source of Qin and Chu and Chu attacks. In the future, when the Qin State attacked the Chu State, it would not always have to go south from the Shangyong Han River, but it would be completely possible to attack from both sides. In short, Qin's occupation of Hanzhong and Bashu greatly weakened the status of the Chu State.

At the beginning of the Western Han Dynasty, Liu Bang was named the king of Han, Wang Bashu and Hanzhong. The land of Bashu provided human and material support for its unification war.

During the Three Kingdoms, although the Eastern Wu army was strong and strong, but Yizhou was not in hand, it could only hoard heavy troops in Jingzhou to prevent the upstream, and at the same time, the downstream did not dare to go north. And Shu Han, who is partial to Yizhou, with such a weak force, can still stand on its feet for nearly fifty years, this is the power of Yizhou.

In the later period of the Three Kingdoms, Deng Ai had just destroyed Shu, that is, the above table suggested that the Shu land should be operated to prepare for the destruction of Wu: "Now because of the momentum of Ping Shu to take advantage of Wu, the Wu people are terrified, and when they are swept away." There are 20,000 soldiers in Long, 20,000 soldiers in Shu, boiling salt and smelting, for the military and agriculture to use, and as boats, preparing for the things of the river, and then sending an envoy to inform the interests, Wu will be naturalized, but it can be determined without levy. Although Deng Ai died, Wang Jun later operated a sailor in Yizhou, and Tuwu was upstream. After Cao Wei of the Western Jin Dynasty, Yanghu expressed Chen Van Wu Fangluo: "The soldiers of Liang Yi are both on land and water; The people of Jingchu entered Jiangling; Pingnan Yuzhou, pointing directly to Xiakou; Xu, Yang, Qing, Yan, and will socks Ling. With a corner of Wu in the world, the potential fractals are scattered, and everything is urgent. Ba and Han Qi soldiers out of their emptiness, one place is broken, then up and down shocks, although there are wise people can not do anything for Wu. ”

Later, the battle of the Jin State to destroy Wu was basically carried out in accordance with the suggestions of Yanghu and others, and the most wonderful stroke was actually that the army went down the river from Yizhou and broke through the Jingzhou defense system that Dongwu had operated for many years in one fell swoop.

And this hand, someone will learn it immediately, that person is Fu Jian, who once brought nightmares to Huan Xuan's uncle Huan Chong, as well as countless ministers and warriors of the Jin Kingdom. Fu Jian's strategy of dominating the world back then was actually the same as the battle between Jin and Wu. Eleven years ago, Fu Jian sent troops to capture Liang and Yierzhou, gaining an upstream advantage in one fell swoop, and ordered Yao Chang to start building warships in Yizhou. At that time, the young Huan Xuan was still a child, but when he was playing, he could often see sawdust on the river, needless to say, this was a sign of upstream shipbuilding, and the worried eyes of his uncle Huan Chong at that time, now Huan Xuan still remembers it clearly.

After five years of preparation for the capture of Yizhou, as a prelude to the battle of Jin, Fu Jian sent an army to attack Xiangyang and wanted to go out in person, but at that time he was blocked by Liang Xi, the assassin of Liangzhou, although this was the case, under the command of Fu Rong and Liang Cheng, although Huan Chong tried his best, but still did not stop Fu Jian's army, and Xiangfan was lost.

Every step before, Fu Jian walked perfectly, it can be said that the Jin Kingdom has no way to go to the sky, no way to go to the ground, to the later, Fu Jian finally couldn't bear it, personally led a million troops to the south, Fu Rong, Murong Chui led the army to the Huai River and Xiangyang respectively, and Yao Chang Duyi, Liang Erzhou military, led the troops of Shu down the river. This set of formations really makes everyone in the world think that Fu Jian is going to dominate the country.

It's just that due to various reasons, especially many reasons that can be attributed to luck, it led to the defeat of the water and the overall collapse.

This scene, until now, Huan Xuan still remembers it clearly in his heart, and even has palpitations, after all, at that time, their Huan family was in Jingzhou, and they were the direct bearers of the pressure on Yizhou.

But now, this Liu Guo actually suggested that they go to Yizhou, which really surprised Huan Xuan.

Huan Xuan has always looked grim, and Liu Guo, who was watching coldly, knew that in fact, he was already moved, so he said: "Nanjun Gong, now Shuzhong is left behind, originally Zhongshan Gong Fu Xu, this person is Fu Jian's young son, although he is young, but sophisticated, both civil and military have merits, and there are tens of thousands of elite soldiers. But presumably Nanjun Gong, you also know that Guanzhong was in an emergency before, and Fu Shu led the king of Qin, but now he is still in Guanzhong, and it is difficult to return suddenly. The strength of Fu Xu's generals is just average, and at this time, it is time to lead the army west! This is the time of day; Jingzhou Naval Army, unparalleled in the world, water and land go hand in hand, then the danger of the Three Gorges is not enough, this place is also advantageous; The people of Shu have been captured by the enemy for only ten years, and the people think about the court and do not want to be slaves of the country. Once Yizhou is taken, Nanjun Gong will have the merit of recovering the country, and his prestige will inevitably rise, and his position will also be consolidated. ”

Liu Guo's words were reasonable, which made Huan Xuan's blood boil for a while, indeed as Liu Guo said, if Fu Xuan was still in Chengdu, he really didn't dare to act rashly, but Fu Xuan almost transferred the original garrison and his newly recruited soldiers, so what were he afraid of?

And Liu Yu, you have recovered Shandong, and if I also recover Shuzhong, which of the two has the greatest credit, it is not necessarily! Besides, I am still a famous family, and I have a team and connections, when that time comes, what will you fight with me?

But after all, Huan Xuan is no longer the Huan Xuan of the past, he will not be simply moved by these words, he smiled and said: "Mr. Liu is really a three-inch tongue, Huan Xuan admitted, your words made me also moved, but Huan Xuan still doesn't understand something." ”

"Nanjun Gong, please speak."

"This matter, according to your meaning, is almost beneficial to the Huan family, but the so-called unprofitable is not early, Lord Duan is far away in Liangzhou, and he will not take the initiative to let you mention Huan Xuan because he feels that he is in love with my Huan family, right? Excuse me, what is the benefit of Huan Xuan doing this? ”

Although Huan Xuan's tone was calm, the meaning of his words was aggressive!

It's just that Liu Guo was not moved at all, he smiled and said, "Don't hide it from your lordship, if your lord raises troops to the west, it will indeed be beneficial to my family." ”

"Where's the benefit?" Huan Xuan asked immediately.

"It's very simple, there's no need to hide it from you now, my lord, I will seize Liangzhou in the near future! If the adults raise troops to the west, it is tantamount to attracting the attention of people all over the world, which will be of great benefit to the career of my family! Liu Guo said calmly.
