Yu Yue took a breath of air: "Is he really going to usurp power and become the emperor himself? This is completely different from his image in the first half of his life. Everyone thinks that although Liu Yu is strong, belligerent, rude and brutal, He was still loyal to the Jin Dynasty. When Jingkou Jianyi raised troops and overthrew Huan Xuan, he did not establish himself as king. Moreover, as far as I know, it was not that no high-ranking family members tried to persuade him to join him. In the end, he did not sit on the throne. It’s something that makes our families feel a little strange.”

Tao Yuanming sneered: "That's because at that time Liu Yu Jianyi was under the banner of restoring the Sima family of the Jin Dynasty. This loyalty was his greatest asset. If he himself sat on the throne of God, he would be a treacherous minister and traitor like Huan Xuan. He will lose the popularity in the world, and this popularity is his biggest advantage over Huan Xuan besides his military ability. In addition, his control over his subordinates and the internal control of the Jingba Party at that time was far less than it is now. Liu Yi He Wuji and He Wuji were both the eldest brothers in the army who were on par with him at the time. They even had more men and horses than him. They only elected him as the alliance leader for various reasons. If he sat on the throne himself, Liu Yi and He Wuji and even other military leaders will stand on their own one after another, and the Jin Dynasty will fall into an era of numerous military towns and wars, and will also be destroyed by foreign enemies."

Yu Yue laughed: "That's true. Liu Yu didn't have the prestige he has now. Although he had great achievements, he still lacked all the steps to usurp the throne. However, his status and achievements are different now. Not only did he conquer Nan Yan still defended Jiankang, and his younger brother defended Jingzhou. If we go one step further and eliminate the demon thieves, Liu Yi's prestige will be greatly reduced, He Wuji will die, and no one can stop him from ascending to the throne of God."

Tao Yuanming shook his head: "He will not proclaim himself emperor so easily. He must succeed in the Northern Expedition and regain the two capitals, at least after capturing the Central Plains and Guanzhong, before he ascends the throne in Guanzhong. I have analyzed before that this is to gain To strengthen the authority of Liu's Han family in the world and make the world believe that this is Liu's destiny, this will minimize the criticism caused by his ascending to the throne as a courtier. Therefore, The Northern Expedition to capture Chang'an and restore the old capital of the Han Dynasty is his biggest goal, Yu Gong, you must have a very clear understanding of this."

Yu Yue's brows raised: "In that case, why do we still want to help him in the Northern Expedition? Do we want to personally send Liu Yu to become the emperor? If he becomes the emperor, he will definitely become the only man in the world like Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. No one in the world dares to disobey orders, not to mention being the governor of a big state, even if you are the prime minister, you kill when you say it, and destroy it when you say it, so it will definitely not be as comfortable as what we are living now."

Tao Yuanming smiled slightly: "Yes, but here comes the question. Will Liu Yu personally conquer the north and encounter powerful enemies such as the Northern Wei, Later Qin, and Hu Xia? Will he definitely win? He has an advantage in fighting the Celestial Master, but in the north On the grassland, facing the powerful Hu cavalry, does he still have an advantage?"

Yu Yue's face changed: "You mean, Liu Yu can't win in the north? But he even defeated Nan Yan's cavalry. The opponent's coach was the invincible God of War, plus all kinds of secret magic and magic from the Tiandao Alliance. As for Murong Chui, are these Northern Huru countries more powerful than Southern Yan?"

Tao Yuanming said calmly: "Murong Chui overestimated his own strength, so he wanted to defeat Liu Yu in a battle at Linqu in the south. However, he failed in the decisive battle. Liu Yu took advantage of the situation and pursued him non-stop, and immediately surrounded Guanggu. The battle to destroy Yan seemed to last for a year, but the real battle was actually just two battles. It can be said that Murong Chui did not use the mobility of his cavalry, as he did when he defeated Huan Wen, either by confronting him head-on or by luring the enemy in. However, he sent out light cavalry to cut off Liu Yu's food route, dragging him down and wearing him down. He chose a decisive battle when Liu Yu's Northern Expeditionary Army had sufficient supplies, high morale, and the strongest combat effectiveness. This was his biggest failure as a coach. .”

Yu Yue said unconvinced: "But if he didn't fight, wouldn't it mean that Liu Yu would directly occupy Linqu? The entire southern gateway of Nanyan would be given to Liu Yu, and the Jin army could obtain supplies from the local area. He has to fight this battle!"

Tao Yuanming shook his head: "There is obviously Daxian Mountain and there are natural dangers like Muling Pass, but he did not defend and prevent Liu Yu's army from entering Qilu. In other words, he did not take advantage of the dangerous terrain of Daxian Mountain. They set up camp in the north of the mountain and blocked Liu Yu's army in the mountain road, unable to advance or retreat. This was his biggest mistake. In other words, he had won too many battles in his life, which made him lose his reason and calmness. Liu Yu also thought that his former subordinates had been defeated. Just like Tuoba Si, he seriously underestimated these two rising stars, so whether he was a black robe or a **** of war, he was in danger of losing his life. Looking for Shuyuan www .zhaoshuyuan.com died in Liu Yu’s hands.”

At this point, Tao Yuanming changed the topic: "However, Nanyan still has its own problem, that is, they are the Qilu land occupied by foreign barbarians. The local people are not attached to them and are completely suppressed by force. Even the Xianbei tribe Internally, power was also valued, and rebellions occurred from time to time. Murong Chao came to the throne as the new king, and did not have the ability and prestige of Murong Beide. As the manipulator behind the scenes, Murong Chui wanted to rob the Eastern Jin Dynasty when Murong Chao came to the throne. He also wanted to establish his authority for Murong Chao, and at the same time, he wanted to warn Murong Lan and give Liu Yu, who had just taken over the position of Jianyi, a blow not to try to go against him. However, he underestimated Liu Yu's ruthlessness and dared to risk his life in this situation. All your own expedition to the north."

Yu Yue sighed: "That's because he doesn't understand Liu Yu. Liu Yu has been flying the banner of protecting the country all day long. I don't even know what the wrong string is in Murong Chui's mind. Just come and rob the property." , insisting on robbing thousands of Jin people, isn't this just a slap in the face of Liu Yu? If Liu Yu doesn't fight back, then those previous slogans of protecting the people and building Jiangbei will become nonsense. He only wants to give Murong Chao To increase his prestige, but not to take away Liu Yu's prestige, how can this gambler get off the stage? I said, why did Murong Chui provoke Liu Yu, a bastard?!"

Tao Yuanming said calmly: "So Murong Chui failed. Of course, his failure was also due to the narrow territory of Nan Yan and the unsympathetic people. When Liu Yu's army arrived, he had to either block the Daxian Mountain Road, abandon Shannan counties, or let Liu Yu go. Yu came to a decisive battle, a battle that determined life and death. However, Murong Chui lost the bet. In fact, the mixed army of chariots and cavalry in the south might not be at a disadvantage in a decisive battle with cavalry on the plains. In this regard, Murong Chui used blood and tears to Come and prove it, so that other northern barbarians will not make this mistake again." (End of Chapter)
