Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 1241
In the General's Mansion, Shen Zhezi was still discussing affairs with a group of staff members, the most important one was of course Shaanxi.

At this time, the latest military situation in Longshang has not yet arrived at Xingtai, but many arrangements related to this have been being enriched and adjusted.In fact, both Longshang and Liangzhou are an extension of the Guanzhong strategy.

It's not that Longshang Qunhu and Liangzhou Zhang's are not worthy of Xingtai's strategy centered on them, it's just that Xingtai doesn't have a clear strategy to continue westward.The core of sending Shen Yun's Fenwu Army to Shanglong is also to ensure the smooth progress of Guanzhong's operations.

From a strategic point of view, the area of ​​Longshang certainly has the strategic route of looking at Shu from Long, and it also has the effect of looking at Qin from Long and overlooking Guanzhong.Therefore, if Guanzhong is to be kept stable, Longshang will never allow a force strong enough to sneak into Guanzhong, including the Zhang family of Liangzhou.

With the expansion of the platform, there are fewer and fewer strategic choices, and less flexibility than in previous years.Although the recovery of Guanzhong has stabilized the Heluoxi territory, the pressure on the frontier has become even greater.

But this does not mean that the westward expedition to Guanzhong was a mistake in strategic choice. After the recovery of Guanzhong, Xingtai could have a deeper control of the Zhongzhou area under its rule, and it also had the basis for mobilizing the human and material resources of Yong and Qin.Overall, the volume of the platform has thus become larger, and the ability to deploy resources and forces across regions is also stronger.

For example, the war against Shu, which has been slightly sluggish in recent years, is mainly in charge of the war in this aspect by the Jingzhou army.However, the previous Xingtai's control over Jingzhou was a little weak, and it could not achieve the kind of control that is like arm and finger. Shen Zhezi had never even visited the towns of Jingzhou, so it was inevitable that he hesitated in dispatching.

This time the western expedition, first of all, transferred the original military strength of Xiangyang, so that Xingtai could directly control Xiangyang, and then looked south to Jingzhou.The recovery of Guan Long also gave Xingtai a way to directly send Wang Shi to participate in the war against Shu.In this way, in terms of the coordination of the grand strategy, the influence and control over the Jingzhou Army has been strengthened.

So in the recent period, the main issues of the staff of the General's Mansion are no longer limited to the current war, but have extended to the control of Longshang, and based on this, the capture of Hanzhong.Once Hanzhong is conquered, the connection between Xingtai and the Jingzhou Army can be integrated, so that the original background of the Jingzhou Army can be fully displayed, and the vast territory to the west can be freely controlled.

In order to complete the overall strategic layout of the western front, the Liangzhou Zhang family is an unavoidable goal.Of course, it’s not just the Zhang family of Liangzhou who is a potential threat. Other powerful forces along the line, such as the Hu tribes such as Di and Qiang in Longshang, and the Yang family of Qiuchi State that have existed for many years, all need to be resolved one by one. question.

At present, among these many targets, only the Liangzhou Zhang family has the greatest power and the highest cohesion, and the corresponding threat is also greater.If this problem cannot be properly resolved, then the entire strategic framework covering the Western Front will not be able to be laid.

Naturally, Shen Zhezi would not think that just because the Zhang family still served Jin Zuo, he could give orders casually.After years of Wang Ye's downfall, the Zhang family in Liangzhou has essentially become an armed group with force protection and certain political appeals, and because of its geography, it is different from the general separatist regime.

From a personal point of view, Shen Zhezi has no ill feeling towards the Zhang family in Liangzhou, on the contrary, he admires his family's many achievements in the past few years.But if it is based on reality, it must be admitted that the reason why the Zhang regime exists is because the abnormal historical period around Yongjia was an obstacle preventing the world from entering governance.

For the Liangzhou Zhang family, the highest goal is naturally to disintegrate and digest them, but this is not a task that is needed and can be completed right now.Therefore, how to deal with the Zhang family in Liangzhou has become the main topic of discussion in Xingtai recently.

Shen Zhezi's attitude towards this is very clear. First of all, one thing must be confirmed, that is, the deterrence of force, so that Zhang can realize that he should not think that his political intentions can be achieved through force. When necessary, he was put into battle in Longshang to suppress Zhang's intention to expand eastward.

In order to achieve this goal, Xingtai's offensive against the remnants of the Han and Zhao dynasties in the northern part of Guanzhong was suspended, in order to ensure that in the event of disputes over the sovereignty of Longshang, enough troops could be dispatched to Longshang.

In fact, it is to slow down the management restructuring of the Hedong area in order to speed up the construction of the military government in the Hedong area.Once the Hedong army is assembled and has a strong combat power, it can rush into Guanzhong at any time to replace the ace elite like the Hongwu Army to share the pressure of the border troubles of the Han and Zhao remnants in the north, so that the Wangshi in Guanzhong can continue to advance westward, He continued to invest in Longshang battles.

Of course, this is the only way to choose when the situation is at its worst.Before that, it is still impossible to give up the restraint and win over Liangzhou.

The existence of the Zhang family in Liangzhou is not only a local separatist force that vainly respects the orthodoxy of Jin Zuo, but also represents that the Han people still occupy a dominant position in the Hexi area.

In the original history, after the fall of the former Liang, there was the chaos of the Hu Dynasty. In the area of ​​Liangzhou and Longshang, several regimes rose successively. Among the sixteen countries alone, there were Houliang, Nanliang, Xiliang, Beiliang, Many regimes such as the Western Qin Dynasty did not include the Chou Chi State of the Dihuyang family that existed like psoriasis, and these regimes existed at the same time.From this, one can also imagine how complicated the power struggle in this area is.

Every time he thinks about this, Shen Zhezi can't help but feel resentful. A group of idiots from the Sima family have left such a broken situation, so that even if the newcomers want to revive the Hanzuo community, they feel that they have no way to start.Even he, thinking about the past and the future, often finds it difficult to engage in emotional disputes and wanton schemes.

Now the foundation of Xingtai is becoming more and more stable, and it even has the strength to operate Longshang.As for the ownership of Longshang, it seems that the Liangzhou Zhang family is the biggest competitor at present, but this is only a temporary situation.

Perhaps the Liangzhou Zhang family still feels that the existence of Xingtai is an opponent that restricts its further growth, but Shen Zhezi still has to consider whether Xingtai has enough strength and energy to fully take over Liangzhou once the Liangzhou Zhang family is killed by mistake. Zhou and Longshang.Otherwise, killing a Zhang family in Liangzhou would result in a fight among the gangsters and corruption, which would affect the Xingtai West Front strategy and cannot be fully rolled out.

Recently, Xingtai has filed many conjectures here, and a conclusion will be made only after the latest information is sent back from Longshang.

The meeting here is not over yet, suddenly a family member came to report that it was He Chang who came to pick up Shen Mu's family members and return them to their mother's house for a temporary stay.

Since Shen Mu and others were away from the Rong town all the year round, and Luoyang city was not yet completed, there was no need to occupy too many mansions and houses, so most of the Shen clan's relatives temporarily lived in the general's mansion.

When Shen Zhezi heard the report from his family, he was shocked at first, thinking that He Xi, who was sick at home, had become seriously ill, so he hurriedly suspended the meeting and hurried to summon He Chang.

He Changde was instructed by his father to come to meet the general, and after meeting each other, he would explain in detail the matters related to Jiuxi.

After Shen Zhezi learned the whole story, he was relieved at first, and then he couldn't laugh or cry.He has been busy enough recently, and he didn't expect to be disturbed by these chores.

He inquired about the inside story for a while, and after confirming that this incident was just accidental and there was no sign of conspiracy, he waved his hand and said: "I know about this, don't bother with it, just cover it up."

Hearing the General's reaction was so dull, He Chang was a little unwilling, and said: "These three memorials, some sages from the field, or advice from the officials, the General will enjoy the honor, and it is already highly regarded by the government. If you don't care, Against all wishes..."

Hearing what He Chang said, Shen Zhezi couldn't help but smiled again, and then said: "It is the order of the king to manage affairs in Taiwan. Although the road of virtuous words is widely spread, it must not be lost. Such indecent remarks , no matter where the clues come from, how can we resort to public opinion!"

He Chang, a son of Wu Xiang, also followed Xingtai to work, so he naturally hoped that the general could take advantage of the situation and make further progress.But Shen Zhezi was in such a position, and his thoughts and concerns were much more generous than theirs.Nowadays, the ceremony of Jiuxi means a signal of a courtier's arrogance, and the meaning it represents is too obvious, and it is not limited to the etiquette.

But Shen Zhezi really didn't have much interest in it, and he didn't really need to accept this virtual gift at all.Once this kind of matter is spread out to discuss rashly, not only is it useless, but it will make the situation that has been stable for a long time regenerate waves.

Today's Jiangdong court has been completely evacuated, and most of the overseas Chinese families who were in power in the early years have also withered away. Luoyang Xingtai itself is already the biggest representative of Jin Zuo's legal system, and there is no deviation from the righteousness.Under such circumstances, Shen Zhezi didn't even need the blessing of Jiuxi's special ceremony to have enough qualifications and prestige to rule the inside and outside.

What's more, the farce of Emperor Min's will just broke out in Guanzhong before, which also exposed the fatal flaw of the Jiangdong court's whiteboard emperor.Fortunately, with the fall of Du Hong, the situation did not deteriorate further.

Today's Luoyang Xingtai is originally a role of collecting rent for the second landlord. Even the legitimacy of the emperor's legal system has such a hidden danger. How much legal advantage can Shen Zhezi gain even if he forces Jiuxi?In the final analysis, it was just a self-indulgence, and there was really no need to cause such trouble.

Moreover, at present, Jiangdong itself is where the Shen family's headquarters is located, and Luoyang Xingtai was built by the general, especially the Wangshi army is controlled by the general Shen, and there is no internal turmoil that requires such special gifts to stabilize people's hearts. At this time, discussing whether to add Jiuxi is simply nonsense.

Hearing the general's statement, He Chang didn't dare to persuade him any more, but asked for instructions: "Then do we need to investigate further?"

"It's not necessary, just hide it."

After pondering for a while, Shen Zhezi waved his hands and said, it's not that he hasn't considered whether there is a conspiracy behind this matter, but whether it is a conspiracy or not, it is really not a big deal for him right now.

Earlier in the Jiangdong coup, real swords and guns could not overthrow him, but now Master Wang's morale is strong, and it is by no means a conspiracy that can be easily defeated.This matter is still under control from its beginning to now, which shows that even if there is someone planning behind it, the power that can be mobilized is really limited.If Xingtai responds with great fanfare, it will spread it instead.

Up to now, what restricts him and Xingtai Bafu's further progress is no longer from external forces, but whether he can grasp the measure and move forward steadily.

"Not only this time, there will be such indecent comments in the future, all of which should be ignored."

Shen Zhezi said again, it's not that he is content with his current position and doesn't want to usurp the Daiguo. In fact, he and his confidants have already thought about and made up their minds about this matter, and there is no need to follow this old path to do anything. Test the foreshadowing.
