Eastern Jin Dynasty: Starting from the son of the refugee commander who returned from the north

Chapter 48 Zhao's Conspiracy
clap clap~
Li Xia couldn't help applauding.

"Young Marshal is smart, and his observation of subtleties is admirable. It seems that he also has unique insights into the court's insight and tactics."

After listening to Zhao Yue's words, Li Xia dared not underestimate her young commander.

Actually.
In the lectures and conversations of the previous few days, Li Xia had long since stopped treating Zhao Yue as a young man.

But as a year-end friendship.

In fact, today, without telling Zhao Yue, why is it not Li Xia's exam?

Now that Zhao Yue has passed Li Xia's test, Li Xia's recognition of Zhao Yue has also increased.

in other words
Take it easy.

The ruler chooses the minister, and the minister chooses the ruler. This has been the case since ancient times.

"I just heard you talk about the benefits of this game. You seem to have some insights?" Li Xia asked after taking a sip of wine.

"I'm afraid the teacher had already thought of this when he set up the situation. There was great chaos in the court, and the Zhongshu ordered Yu Liang to take care of one thing and lose the other. The clan and the Langya Wang family were all his constraints. The one who can be relied on, the one who has to be relied on, is probably our Tianshui Zhao family?"

"good."

Li Xia admitted it generously.

"The commander-in-chief ordered me to come back because he wanted me to muddy Jiankang's waters."

When does a person with a heavy hand have the greatest say?
The answer is in times of turmoil!
When the time comes when Su Jun's army comes under the pressure, what request does Zhao Xun make to Yu Liang? If Yu Liang dares to agree, can he not agree?

"I'm afraid the teacher has already known about the rebellion of the guards in the palace?"

"General Youwei is in charge of the palace guards. Doesn't he not know about such a big event? Then Yu Yin is indeed famous among the palace guards, but if there are no caring people behind to help the flames and promise benefits, how can they turn against him?"

Zhao Yue was stunned for a moment, as if he wanted to understand something, and said: "That is to say, the palace guard's conspiracy has nothing to do with Yu Yin, and we planned it alone?"

"good."

Li Xia nodded slightly.

"What's the purpose of arresting the queen mother by rebelling against the guards in the palace? If you want to arrest him, you also arrest Yu Liang. Killing Yu Liang and arresting the queen mother will only make Yu Liang furious."

"The family members of the palace guards have already crossed the north?"

"Jiangbei is short of female relatives, the land is vast, and there is also a shortage of servants to cultivate. When they arrive in Guangling, they will naturally be scrambled for."

Good guy!
Those guards in the palace were probably promised a lot of benefits, but now they are gone, and their wives are also given to others.

This is selling yourself and counting the money for others!

"Young Marshal sympathizes with them and thinks we are cold-blooded and ruthless?"

Zhao Yue shook his head lightly.

"I just feel that in the battle of the court, the little people are always involuntary. They can be chess players if they want to, and dominate the lives of others, instead of being calculated by others and becoming a pawn that can be discarded at any time."

pity?

Maybe there is.

Those rebellious palace guards were dazzled by the benefits they promised verbally. Maybe they deserved their crimes, but his family members are always innocent. Now they go to Guangling. The female family members were kidnapped by outsiders to become concubines, Meiji, bad luck Yes, just pretend to be a military prostitute.

It was even worse for the men.

The young ones depend on their luck. If they are raised by someone, they will survive, but if they are not adopted, they will die.

The older ones directly became slaves and were driven away.

They are indeed poor.

There are also those palace guards who did not rebel and their families were exiled to the border.

Poor?

Poor indeed.

Sympathy?
Sympathy indeed.

But Zhao Yue also understands that in the most chaotic era in China for 5000 years, if your heart is soft, your end will only be worse than theirs.

And it will hurt those who follow you.

They did their best for you, but they ended up dying because of your soft heart, isn't it pitiful?
In troubled times, what is sympathy?
How much is it worth?

"Young commander-in-chief is very pleased to have such an idea. The young commander-in-chief has never been to Huaibei. Human life is worth more than grass. Things like changing children and eating them often happen. Once a war starts, thousands or tens of thousands of people will die. Lives were lost in one day, blood flowed into rivers, and corpses even clogged rivers, compared to them, what is the fate of those palace guards?"

Li Xia stared at Zhao Yue with burning eyes, and said: "I am waiting for this unscrupulous means, just to better return the world to peace, to return the world to a bright and bright world! At that time, there will be no more fighting, no more killing, and the people will live and work in peace and contentment. The prosperity of the world depends on killing, the commander has fought for it all his life, and his subordinates have also fought for it all his life, and after that, he has to rely on the young commander."

"I understand, teacher, don't worry, I'm not a person with a weak heart, and I won't be depressed because of this matter."

Zhao Yue knew that Li Xia was trying to enlighten him.

But the point is
Zhao Yue didn't need him to enlighten him at all.

"There will be war soon."

Li Xia sighed faintly.

"Yu Liang wants to summon Su Jun to the court to interrogate him. I have acquainted with Su Jun on several occasions, and even killed the enemy with him. I know his temperament well. Yu Liang forced Su Jun to enter the court. It will only force Su Jun back, but fortunately the commander has already destroyed the bandit Zhao Xingying in Huaibei, and within a short period of time, Jiehu can't gather troops to attack, and this is what the commander can buy for a few months."

Zhao Yue heard the clue.

"That's why. Father asked you to come back to let Su Jun make trouble in advance, while he still has the energy to spare?"

Li Xia nodded slightly.

"There are also considerations in this regard."

So it seems
His cheap father is really a master of fire.

You say he is a loyal minister?
He is definitely not a loyal minister, he can even be said to be a traitor, but he is dedicated to serving the people and keeping the people of a county safe, but he can be regarded as a loyal minister who is loyal to the people.

I am afraid that he has no loyalty to the Sima family at all.

"It's just. Will Su Jun really turn back so quickly?"

After all, marching and fighting always takes time, and preparing food and grass will undoubtedly take more time.

And
With tens of thousands of people under Su Jun's account, it will take at least a few years to calm down.

Then
Does Zhao Xun have such a long time to put down the rebellion?
Li Xia also saw the confusion on Zhao Yue's face, and said: "It's up to the sky to plan things, but it's up to people to make things happen. Huainan is a victorious place, with a general in command, and the enemy has suffered a new defeat. Maybe they don't dare to fight Shouchun again." Now that we have made up our minds, we will attack Xiangyang instead."

There are two major battlefields in the Huaihe River.

Xiangyang battlefield, Huaihe battlefield.

Taking any one of them can break the Huaihe defense line.

The enemy can't break the situation from the Huaihe battlefield, so they can only go to Xiangyang.

It just so happens that the person guarding Xiangyang now is Hou Zhoufu of Xunyang County recommended by Director Wang.

Zhou Fu participated in the Wangdun Rebellion, but to be honest, the Eastern Jin Dynasty was a family politics and a family game.

The rebels killed the three clans?

maybe
But as long as the backstage behind you is strong enough and you are useful, others will try their best to keep you, and when the rumors pass, they will be activated again. Zhou Fu is an example of this.

　Sore throat caused a low-grade fever, which lasted for a month. Now I have asked for medicine, received antipyretic injections, sweated and rested, and I will send out a new update first.
