Eight Hills in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

Vol 2 Chapter 365: Huan's Northern Expedition

Liu Yu shook his head: "No, you are wrong, I mean, if the Xie family intends to go northward, of course, I still work for the Xie family, but if the Xie family really like Huan Xuan said, they only want to protect themselves, don't think Enterprising, then I can't let the dream of recovering the Central Plains be broken. "

Murong Nan ticked the corner of his mouth: "Do you think Huan Family can help you realize this dream?"

Liu Yu's eyes flashed coldly: "Yes, at least, they are more motivated to achieve this than the Xie family."

Murong Nan gently "Oh" said: "Why do you see it?"

Liu Yuzheng said: "Xie Xianggong wants the real power of the monarch. As long as he holds the power of the prime minister, he will make friends with the major families through marriage, so that the court is full of children of the family. The emperor has no power and can only obey his words. Therefore, even if you do not go northward, as long as you keep the existing territory, the Xie family can still retain its power. "

"But the Huan family is different. They are foreign clan. They are too far away from the central government. They want to seize power. The only way is to usurp the throne, and to do the tampering, except to be as strong as Huan Wen, enough to bring troops to control Jiankang City. In addition, as you said, it is necessary to effectively control the people and the countryside. "

Murongnan smiled and said: "Is this necessarily related to the Northern Expedition?"

Liu Yu sighed: "I used to think that the Northern Expedition was just to accumulate popularity, so that the family or the gentry could support themselves. Just listening to you said, I think I hadn't thought enough before. Northern Expedition can gain fame. In addition, you can get the existing benefits and tampering costs. "

A move in Murong Nan's heart quickly said, "Where does this start?"

The light in Liu Yu ’s eyes shone: “I ’ve been in Jindu Nandu for nearly a hundred years. In fact, at the beginning, the northern family members of Nandu were not very prosperous, and they were like the local indigenous tribes such as Zhou Lu Zhang Shen Zhu. In contrast, apart from the power of North Korea and China, there is not much advantage. Therefore, since the founding of the country, the power of North Korea has belonged to the northern tribes, and most of the civilian land population is owned by Jiangdong indigenous families. "

Murong Nan nodded: "This is how the king and the horse came together. Qianglong and the ground snake have found a balance, which makes us northern Hu people also look at each other."

Liu Yu said with a smile: "But in the past 100 years, the descendants of the powerful northern tribes have multiplied. They can rely on the power in their hands to let their descendants occupy the field and slowly encroach on the interests of those indigenous people. The land of the Three Wus, Lingnan, Minyue, is full of nieces and nephews of these family members? "

Murong Nan raised his eyebrows and looked at Liu Yu: "Yeah, didn't I say that before? Wang Xie's nephews of the high-men family control the rural folk in Jiangnan, and there are a large number of manors and tenants. The reason why Huan Wen dared not commit tampering. But what does this have to do with the Northern Expedition? "

Liu Yuzheng said: "My Dajin is now the land of Jingxiang with only the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, as well as the land of the Three Wus and Lianghuai, which are regarded as the core area. Others such as the land of Minyue and Lingnan Jiaozhou are remote, It can be neglected. The land and population of these core areas have basically been divided up by the family or the warlords. It can be said that it is difficult to divide the new benefits from their hands to the meritors of the Northern Expedition. Those children of the family have divided their farm produce and tenants into the mud leg of the Beifu Army. I think even Xie Xianggong can't do it. This is the root cause of the failure of the Northern Expedition over the years. "

"But if the newly occupied and conquered land in the north is different, with these unowned land, it can be used to reward new meritorious soldiers, and the population obtained can also be redistributed, and even new troops can be trained in these populations. To make his own strength constantly stronger. The Huan family only depends on Jingzhou, and it is impossible to control the folks of Sanwu, but if there are Central Plains, Qilu, and Guanzhong, the power and military strength are different. "

Murongnan nodded his head while murmuring, "Yeah, we Murong's entry into the Central Plains is also dependent on the local Han powerful landlords to maintain their rule. With the strength of our own race, it is impossible to stabilize the North. Liu Yu, how did you think about this? "

Liu Yu sighed: "Liu Muzhi often talked to me before. I didn't pay much attention at the time. Now I think that the truth of the world is the same. The Huan family wants to cut north. In the final analysis, it is for new land, population, and they I want to be an emperor, I want to be the whole world, not half of the emperor in Jiangnan, so this point may be essentially different from the family clan in Jiangdong, because the Huan family is more of a feudal town than an ordinary one. Family gate valve. "

Murongnan smiled and said: "The warlords want to win the world by relying on strong soldiers and strong horses, rather than defending their own one-third of an acre, so they are naturally more aggressive than the family gatekeepers. Do you want to say this?"

Liu Yu sighed: "Yes, I used to think that Xie Xianggong was in the world, and he had the heart to regain the lost ground, but listening to Huan Xuan said, I am a little shaken now. Xie Xianggong is after all Xie's family, he has to consider, The first is to maintain the power of the Xie family, and the second is to restore the great cause of the Central Plains, and the Huan family, they wholeheartedly want to usurp the throne, but to reach this point, they must enter the original in the picture. Perhaps at this point, it is the Huan family. Closer to my goal. "

Murong Nan nodded: "Do you really have the intention to change to Huanjia?"

Liu Yu shook his head: "So how is it possible? Xie Jia how to say that I have great grace ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ I will not betray Xie Jia, but if one day, Xie Jia can not do the Northern Expedition Central Plains, and If the Huan family can do it, maybe I will help the Huan family once. After all, I am a Dajin citizen first, a Chinese. "

Murong Nan sighed: "But even if you think so, what will Xie's family think of you? How will people in the world think of you? Liu Yu, in the eyes of others, you are already Xie's future son-in-law, they need to control Beifu The future of the army will be star. "

Liu Yu smiled and waved his hand: "I don't want to be anyone's tool, Murong Nan, I won't be like your Murong family, once the wings are hard, I will bite back the old master, there is really a day to clean up the world, maybe I will be back to Linquan. "

Speaking of which, Liu Yu sighed and looked up at the sky. In this narrow alley, even the sky became narrower and narrower: "But now that these are useless, the Qin army soldiers are under pressure, and they first repel the strong face to face. Enemies can only think of anything else. However, will Xie Xianggong really say what Huan Xuan said, maybe this time the treatment of Huan Jiang ’s death can be somewhat discernible. "
