Chapter 550

"Haha, Murong Wei still resents me in his heart. After he goes to the Western Regions, he will be able to understand my good intentions."

Liu Yu said with a gentle smile.

Gongsun Sheng felt inexplicably confused about this sentence.

It is certain that Murong Xianbei felt resentment, but why did he experience some good intentions after arriving in the Western Regions?

Liu Yu saw his doubts and explained casually.

"The countries in the Western Regions all act independently. Even the so-called major countries such as Wusun are just a few princes and princes who are separating one side and then supporting a leader. The real power is still in the hands of these princes and princes."

"However, these Western Regions countries are crowded and powerful. Even if Murong Ting can defeat for a while, it will be difficult to manage the conquered population without a strong support."

"The benefits of this Buddhist teachings will be reflected by that time."

Gongsun Sheng still had some understanding of the teachings of Buddhism. Although there were many exaggerated and false elements, its essence was to guide people to be good, and even for great evil, he advocated the ability to practice.

"Your Majesty, if this is the case, wouldn't Murong Xianbei take root in the Western Regions? Will it become a major disaster in the Western Frontier in the future?" Gongsun Sheng said worriedly.

"No, once you arrive in the Western Regions, there are weak and rich pigs everywhere. How could you run back?" Liu Yu said with a smile.

Gongsun Sheng’s worries are basically impossible to achieve.

Historically, as long as you understand that various forces flowing out from the East Asian zone to Central Asia, whether it is the Dayuezhi, Wusun and other forces that moved westward from the Hexi Corridor, or later Western Turks, Western Liao and other forces, they all became unbearable after entering Central Asia.

Isn’t he good to be the king of the Western Regions where the sick are everywhere?

Why do you have to return to the Central Plains as cannon fodder?

"However, I will not let Murong's tribe live in the Western Regions for a long time."

Liu Yu is now out of reach for the Western Regions, so he can only move westward as much as possible to a number of hidden dangers.

The advantage of doing this is to move potential threats such as Murong, Tuyuhun to the Western Regions on the one hand.

On the other hand, he could also use Shi Mozhi and others to spread Buddhism in the Western Regions. After all the people in the Western Regions became great charitable people with compassion, Liu Yu sent the Han army to take over, which was very relaxed.

"Okay, no matter how many people are sent, follow Murong Xianbei in the name of business travel, monitor their dynamics at any time. If there is any change, go to Ran Long and his son to solve the problem immediately."

Now Ran Long and Ran Liang and his son have 60,000 troops stationed in the Helan area. As long as anyone in the Xianbei tribes dares to move around, they will inevitably suffer a catastrophe.

"As for your order!"

Gongsun Sheng immediately agreed.

Liu Yu suddenly remembered again and asked.

"How is the war in Yizhou going now?"

The two Han troops commanded by Xi Jian and Gou Xi had already advanced to Yizhou, and Li Xiong, who had just recovered from serious injury, had to deal with it.

"Your Majesty, Baishui and Langzhong have been captured. Li Xiong gathered troops to control the road ahead and is now confronting our army. I am afraid that he will not take the initiative to attack within two or three months." Gongsun Sheng said.

Faced with the fierce two Han troops, the Western Qiang recruited by Li Xiong were no match for them at all.

Even when Pu Hong, Yao Yizhong and other Di Qiang in Qinzhou attacked the Han army, these Western Qiang surrendered and became servants of the Han army.

However, the Ba Di soldiers in Li Xiong's hands were all soldiers who dared to fight, and with the dangerous terrain of Yizhou, they temporarily blocked the Han army from the Chengdu Plain.

"Li Xiong is almost unable to defend himself, which is to exhaust our army!"

Liu Yu immediately guessed Li Xiong's strategic intentions.

Li Xiong had already guessed that it was extremely difficult for the Han army to transport food and grass from the Central Plains, otherwise it would not have been plundering cattle, horses and vehicles in the Guanzhong area.

As long as the Battle of Yizhou becomes a war of attrition, Li Xiong can use his geographical advantage to drag the war to winter.

"After a while, winter will soon begin. At that time, the Qinling Mountain Road will be even more difficult, and it will be even more difficult to transport food and grass." Gongsun Sheng was also a little worried.

"Then tell Xi Jian that he is the main force along the way. As long as he ensures the food route, even if he does not conquer the city, he will be considered a victory." Liu Yu said for a moment.

"Where is Gou Xi along the way?" Gongsun Sheng asked.

Liu Yu touched his chin and said slowly.

"Along the way, Gou Xi passed by the territory of the Diqiang tribes and other tribes. He had already entered Yizhou. It would be impossible to transport grain and grass by Guanzhong."

"Appoint Gou Xi, if you cannot stockpile enough food and grass before winter, then you can retreat and guard Yinping, Baishui and other places."

Liu Yu was not very worried about the end of the Battle of Yizhou.

Now Li Xiong no longer has the hearts of the people in Yizhou and cannot recruit more soldiers. He only relies on the Ba Di soldiers in his hands, and sooner or later he will die.

However, this process is just a war of attrition.

"As long as the battle in Yizhou is stable, it will be enough to make Li Xiong surrender."

"When you take over Yizhou, there will be no major war in at least five years."

Liu Yu's only expectation after conquering Yizhou was to quickly restore the population lost due to the war.

Now, the total population of the entire Central Plains states is less than half of that of the Taikang period.

You know, there were many families in Dingkou during the Taikang period, and none of them were counted as population.

Liu Yu has now ordered the states to release the households and servants, and there have been as many as five or six times.

Even so, it is still less than half of that year.

"Your Majesty, the civil strife in the Jin Dynasty in Jiangdong has stopped now, and thieves on the Huainan line have emerged. Wang Dun and others cannot check and balance at all. They are already threatening the Huainan area." Gongsun Sheng said.

As the saying goes, when encountering troubled times, there may be a stop to the war, and it is difficult to stop the small battle.

Especially all kinds of chaos that occupy mountains, rivers, lakes and thieves are always invincible.

"The solution that Diao Yi and others think is not very useful," said Gongsun Sheng.

Since Wang Dun raised an army to attack Diao Xie and Liu Wei, his son Diao Yi suggested that Liu Yu recruit troops from Huainan to flee north.

The chaos in Huainan now is mostly caused by Diao Yi and others.

"This is not Diao Yi's method doesn't work. The key is to see who will use it." Liu Yu was also a little helpless.

Diao Yi's method is very beautiful, but it did not work very well when implemented.

Wang Dun and others also tried their best to win over all the refugee troops in Huainan, especially the heroes of the refugee troops, who promised very high autonomy, and the official positions given exceeded the specifications offered by Diao Yi.

"If we can recruit all the troops from Huainan, then we will be able to cross the river in a short time."

"Why would Wang Dun and others not understand this principle?"

Liu Yu had already been mentally prepared for this situation.

"Now, refugees from all walks of life in Huainan are already in chaos, especially some refugees who gather in the mountains and forests have completely become robbers. It is very difficult to cross the Huai River north to rob," said Gongsun Sheng.

Liu Yu frowned slightly.

Diao Yi had a good idea for the responsibility of refugees from various Huainan areas, but his prestige and ability were not enough, and he did not achieve much results except causing chaos on the other hand.

"It seems that Diao Yi's ability is still a little worse."

"Since Diao Yi can't do it, then go there another person."

Gongsun Sheng immediately asked, "Who does Your Majesty want to change?"

Liu Yu said without hesitation.

"Diao Yi and Liu Wei came to join us at the same time. Now Diao Yi is not good, so he will naturally use Liu Wei."

He thought for a moment and then said.

"Liu Wei can take advantage of the situation and let Murong Wei give up Liaodong obediently. You can imagine that he is still very capable."

Gongsun Sheng disagreed with this matter.

"Liu Wei and Sima Shao have a close relationship. If Liu Wei takes the opportunity to reconnect with Sima Shao, wouldn't it be a pity?"

Diao Yi did not have much friendship with Sima Rui and his son, and even resented Sima Rui and his son for not trying their best to protect their father Diao Xie, which made Diao Xie die in a bad life.

Therefore, Gongsun Sheng felt that there was no problem with asking Diao Yi to be responsible for the affairs of Huainan refugees.

Liu Wei was smart and capable, had high prestige and skills, and had a good relationship with Sima Shao, the crown prince of the Jin family.

If Liu Wei takes the opportunity to cause something, it would be bad.

"Haha, there's no need to worry about this kind of thing."

Liu Yu had long considered this kind of thing.

"Now Wang Dun is in charge of power, and his flames are even more intense. At that time, Sima Rui was just a puppet. Even the prince of Jin Sima Shao gave up the Jingkou Shogunate. What other waves could he make?"

Liu Yu had known about the rumors about Jiangdong for a long time.

Since Wang Dun won the victory of "cleaning the king's side", Crown Prince Sima Shao gave up the Jingkou Shogunate, which was in name only, and returned to Jiankang to continue to be the crown prince honestly.

Moreover, Liu Yu also heard that at the beginning, Wang Dun, the general of Jin, intended to depose Sima Shao, but Wang Dao and others tried their best to protect him, so Wang Dun gave up his plan.

"When Sima Rui had some power, he could not protect Liu Wei, Diao Xie and others."

"Now there is no inch of power in your hands. Will Liu Wei still give Wang Dun his head?"

After this period of contact, he still has some understanding of Liu Wei's ambitions.

Liu Wei had the heart to make achievements. Since it was not feasible in the Jin Dynasty in Jiangdong, as long as Liu Yu gave him a chance, he would definitely not be involved with Sima Shao again.

After all, Liu Wei had a great grudge against Wang Dun and others, so how could he serve the surrendered Sima Rui and his son?

"But if Liu Wei went to Huainan, then those Murong Xianbei from Dongping Prefecture would not know who would send to protect the people?" Gongsun Sheng asked.

A member of the Murong Xianbei in Liaodong was left in Liaodong, and later moved to the south of Lelang County by Liu Yu, and was placed near the Fuyu people in Baekje.

Liu Wei is still in Dongping Prefecture and personally supervises these Murong Xianbei movies.

"These Murong Xianbei will no longer need anyone to protect them. It's time for them to serve."

"How does Your Majesty plan to make them serve?"

"I have saved them from the suffering of migrating thousands of miles. Going up the mountains and seas to fight thieves, it is always the duty."
