I will be the master of Xuande

Chapter 640: Someone who is not a martial artist
Why is Xun Yu so sensitive to Jia Xu's words?Because what Jia Xu said is indeed too involved.

There is no doubt that if the Xiliang army in Liangzhou is dragged in now, it will definitely cause huge waves in the Chang'an court.

Not waves, but choppy waves.

In this turmoil, the current emperor Liu Bian, as well as his subordinates Wang Yun, Yang Biao and other representatives of prominent families and ministers may not get any good results.

Moreover, it is very likely that Liu Jian will also profit from the chaos.

But once these people are brought in, will the situation be good for the audience?
Xun Yu did not dare to confirm this.

Especially the Xiliang army without Dong Zhuo's check and balance will definitely be extremely chaotic.

When the time comes, all the armies in Liangzhou attack and kill each other, and if Ma Teng and Han Sui take advantage of the situation to rise, then the entire Yongliang land will be in chaos, and the northwest will be even more chaotic.

Thinking of this, Xun Yu stood up and said to Liu Jian:

"Wenhe's method is inappropriate. Please think again, my lord."

When he said this, Xun Yu also cast an apologetic look at Jia Xu.

Jia Xu just smiled and showed no anger at Xun Yu's objection to him.

In fact, Jia Xu also knew that the four names he just mentioned would make people think that they were tactics of chaos.

If it were anyone else, they would never say these four names to Liu Jian today.

However, as an adviser and Liu Jian's minister, Jia Xu must tell Liu Jian this news and opinions. As for Liu Jian Cai not accepting it, Jia Xu will not care.

Because Jia Xu knows that Liu Jian knows that with his own wisdom, he will definitely have opinions that are different from ordinary people. If he holds back or doesn't say it, or says it too late, it may have an impact on his status in Liu Jian's heart. .

Jia Xu and Liu Jian cannot hide their secrets. This is the best way for him to establish himself under Liu Jian in the future - Jia Xu understands this deeply in his heart.

Xun Yu just opposed Jia Xu's plan, but he did not give a specific reason. In fact, Xun Yu did not need to say this reason at all, and Liu Jian knew it very well.

Liu Jian knew that Xun Yu didn't want him to end up in a dilapidated Guanzhong.

Because Guanzhong is very important to the western region and its future expansion to the Western Regions, it is the base for the Han Dynasty to expand its influence to the Western Regions.

If the west is uncertain, the Han Dynasty will not always be peaceful, but if the Western Region is to be stable, it needs a good forward position.

Guanzhong, without a doubt, is the best forward position.

What Jia Xuzhi said is quite attractive to Liu Jian to a certain extent, but for the long-term development of Guanzhong, this strategy cannot be implemented at least now.

In other words, the implementation method requires certain means and timing.

With this question, Liu Jian looked at Jia Xu.

"Wen He, you know, if people like Niu Fu, Lu Bu, Li Jue, Guo Si, and even Hu Zhen and Zhang Ji start to make trouble."

"I'm afraid Guanzhong will no longer be the Guanzhong it is now."

"By then, Guanzhong will probably become an extremely dilapidated Guanzhong, and a dilapidated Guanzhong will really have no meaning for my overall strategy in the future."

After Jia Xu heard Liu Jian ask him this question, he couldn't help but feel comforted.

In fact, the current Jia Xu is also influenced by Liu Jian, and is different from the past.

Although he still acted with caution and self-preservation, Liu Jian's unfathomable ambition has been influencing Jia Xu over the years.

For the current Jia Xu, if Liu Jian can realize his ambition, Jia Xu's descendants and all the people in the world will really be able to live in a relatively safe environment.

Therefore, helping Liu Jian realize his ambitions and aspirations is now one of Jia Xu's major life goals.

But Jia Xu gave a long salute to Liu Jian.

"My lord, Mr. Wenruo, you two have misunderstood Jia. Just now Jia just mentioned the four names Niu Fu, Lu Bu, Li Jue and Guo Si."

"But Jia didn't say, let the master plan now and let these four people cause trouble in Guanzhong."

"I understand in my heart that for my lord, it is of great strategic significance to obtain a relatively stable and prosperous Guanzhong."

"After all, there is Liangzhou to the west of Guanzhong."

"And to the west of Liangzhou, there are other countries in the Western Regions."

Hearing what Jia Xu said, Xun Yu and Liu Jian were both refreshed.

Jia Wenhe... is not a person who is violent!
Then, I heard Liu Jian laughing and saying.

"I know that Wen He is not the one who brings trouble to the world. Wen He, Wen He, although you have the method of chaos and martial arts, we can still rule the world with Tao!"

Jia Xu hurriedly said: "I am ashamed of myself. There is a word of Tao, and in the whole world, only my lord can do it."

"Wen He, tell us your opinion, so that Wen Ruo and I can feel at ease."

Jia Xu said:

"I mentioned these four names to my lord just now. I just informed my lord that these four people are available, but I did not want these four people to cause trouble in Guanzhong. Moreover, these four people can be used in more than one way."

"In my opinion, these four people will have to be used sooner or later, but now, we can only make preparations first. It is not suitable for the four of them to be excessively involved in this war. What is happening now. What the lord has to do is to first Hold them steady, then separate them one by one and use them."

Liu Jian leaned forward and asked, "How to stabilize them?"

Jia Xu stroked his beard and said with a smile: "My Lord, in your opinion, Dong Zhuo is seriously ill now, and the generals of the Xiliang Army cannot advance or retreat in Liangzhou. Aren't they anxious? If The lord is one of them now, I wonder what the lord is thinking about now?"

Liu Jian said without any hesitation: "Escape!"

Jia Xu clapped softly and said, "My lord is indeed a hero of the world. He hit the key to the matter with just one sentence."

"For the generals of the Xiliang Army, no matter what the situation is now, their retreat is their most important matter."

"Dong Zhuo is seriously ill and is unlikely to die soon. Even if he can recover, it will have a great impact on his physical condition in the future. Who knows how long he can survive?"

"Now that the imperial court has abolished even the New Deal, it shows that the situation in the imperial court has changed drastically. These generals of the Xiliang Army are just a group of warriors. They are good at leading troops in war, but when it comes to politics, each of them is worse than the last."

"They cannot lead troops and horses to fight everywhere forever. They also need political support and guarantee. At least their soldiers need food and grass. With the current situation, these people are not sure about their future retreat."

Liu Jian said slowly: "Wen He means, let me give these people a way out first, give them a guarantee, so that they don't act rashly?"

Jia Xu said solemnly: "My lord, you can give them a guarantee, and other people in the court can also give them a guarantee. Moreover, these Xiliang generals each have hidden ambitions. It is meaningless to simply win over each other. And some of them are not suitable to be lured to Hebei."

Xun Yu probably understood something when he heard this.

"What Wen He means is that Wang Yun, Yang Biao and others will send people to win over the generals of the Xiliang Army?"

Jia Xu said with a smile: "Although the ministers in Chang'an City have enough political power, they do not have enough military strength. At present, all the military strength in the city is in the hands of Dong Zhuo, but Dong Zhuo is seriously ill now, they will definitely find a way to dig him out." An army in the hands of Dong Zhuo.”

"However, according to Jia Mou, Wang Yun and others will not recruit the generals of the Xiliang Army. They will mainly recruit the Bingzhou group, such as Lu Bu, Zhang Liao and others as assistants."

When Liu Jian heard this, he immediately realized something.

In history, Wang Yun indeed joined forces with Lu Bu to annihilate Dong Zhuo. Later, Li Jue, Guo Si and other Xiliang soldiers wanted to join the imperial court, but Wang Yun refused.Wang Yun also died as a result.

But let me ask, why did Wang Yun in history refuse the surrender of Xiliang soldiers such as Li Jue and Guo Si?Is it because Li Jue, Guo Si and others did too many evil things under Dong Zhuo?
If you think about it in a simple way, when Lu Bu was under Dong Zhuo, would what he did be too different from Li Jue and Guo Si?
Why was Wang Yun able to surrender Lu Bu, but couldn't accept Li Jue and Guo Si?
Wang Yun is a mature politician. It is impossible for him to refuse a strong army to submit to his command because of the issue of whether to do evil or not.

But if you think about it carefully, you will find that it is actually mainly a matter of region and origin.

Where is Wang Yun’s ancestral home?It’s Bingzhou!

He is from Taiyuan, Bingzhou.

For Wang Yun, if he were to take charge of the government, it would be easier to control him with troops and horses from his own state and hometown, and it would also make it easier for him to control the overall situation in the future.

The Xiliang Army was originally the northwest frontier army and had nothing to do with him. Moreover, there were too many factions and too many generals in the Xiliang Army. They were from Liangzhou and were incompatible with Wang Yun.

With so many Xiliang troops under his command, Wang Yun may not be able to completely control them with his ability.

Dong Zhuo was an old man who had been living in Xiliang for a long time. These Xiliang soldiers were all elite soldiers who had accompanied him in battles all year round. Dong Zhuo had the ability to control them with his own prestige, but Wang Yun was definitely not able to do so.

If these Xiliang soldiers are really taken under his command, it will indeed strengthen Wang Yun's strength in the short term. However, over time, these Xiliang soldiers will naturally form their own faction. Wang Yun, a native of Bingzhou, will not be able to do so at all. It may be recognized by Liangzhou soldiers and generals.

This is equivalent to burying a huge thunder around yourself, which may explode at any time.

But for Wang Yun, the generals of the Bingzhou system were different.

People like Lu Bu and Zhang Liao were all born in Bingzhou. These people can be said to be trustworthy to Wang Yun, because the reputation of his Taiyuan Wang family is in Bingzhou.

People like Lu Bu and Zhang Liao knew the reputation of the Wang family in Taiyuan very well, and they were all locals in Bingzhou, so they had some local feelings for each other. Based on this, Wang Yun was confident that he could capture the hearts of these soldiers. .

Therefore, Wang Yun in history accepted the Bingzhou faction, but firmly refused to accept the Xiliang faction.

And the situation is the same today.

From Wang Yun's perspective, he must be hoping to win over the Bingzhou faction headed by Lu Bu, Zhang Liao and others.

But it was difficult for him to accept Li Jue, Hu Zhen, Guo Si and other Liangzhou factions.

……

"According to my inference, Wang Yun will definitely promise Lu Bu huge benefits."

"But Lu Bu is now united with Niu Fu. To a certain extent, the two are in the same boat. Lu Bu will probably introduce Niu Fu to Wang Yun in the future."

"However, Niu Fu is Dong Zhuo's son-in-law after all. I'm afraid Wang Yun will also be wary of Niu Fu."

"My lord should send someone to contact Niu Fu secretly and ask Niu Fu to stop Lu Bu from joining Wang Yun's army!"

"But Niu Fu has always been at odds with Li Jue, Guo Si, Hu Zhen and others."

"It is impossible for people like Li Jue, Guo Si, and Hu Zhen to be accepted by Wang Yun. In other words, the future of these people is already determined, and they will inevitably be excluded from the imperial court."

"My lord, you can use this to make the Xiliang army restless."

After listening to Jia Xu's analysis, Liu Jian couldn't help but admire him.

The person who can analyze the Xiliang Army so clearly must be Jia Xu.

"Wenhe, please continue."

Jia Xu said seriously: "What the lord has to do is to continue to confront Yuan Shao in Sizhou, and then send an envoy to see Lu Bu first, and at the same time secretly notify Niu Fu, and secretly spread rumors that Wang Yun will recruit Lu Bu to submit, so that Xiliang The generals will be alert to Lu Bu so that Lu Bu cannot defect to Wang Yun's command!"

"If the Bingzhou army does not defect to Wang Yun, no matter how much trouble the court makes, it will be useless. There are not many soldiers and horses, and in the end they will be nothing more than fish and meat on a sword."

Liu Jian couldn't help but be happy when he heard this.

Jia Xu, this is to cut off the roots of Wang Yun and Yang Biao first.

Liu Jian thought seriously for a while and said, "What if I take one step ahead of Wang Yun and recruit Lu Bu?"

Jia Xu laughed and said: "It's not necessary. Now the lord still needs Lu Bu to contain Hu Zhen, Hua Xiong and others. Once these people are left unchecked, they will inevitably cause trouble. Moreover, if Lu Bu joins the lord now, it will still be a problem for the lord." A burden."

"Now the emperor is extremely dissatisfied with the lord. If the lord finds Lu Bu under his command at this time, it will be harmful and useless for the time being. At the same time, it will also arouse the vigilance of other Xiliang army generals, and he will also have to bear the responsibility of supporting the Bingzhou army. This For the Lord, it is not the best choice right now.”

"As long as my lord can make Lu Bu unable to surrender to Wang Yun and waver, Lu Bu will become a sharp sword in Liangzhou to contain the generals of Xiliang!"

Liu Jian nodded and said, "What about Li Jue and Guo Si? You just mentioned Lu Bu and Niu Fu, how should I deal with Li Jue and Guo Si?"

Jia Xu said: "According to my observation, Hu Zhen, Hua Xiong and others are die-hard loyalists of Dong Zhuo. They are now in Liangzhou and are constraining each other with Lu Bu and Niu Fu. And Li Jue and Guo Si are , their army is currently in Guanzhong, under the command of the imperial court. As far as I know, these two people are not that loyal to Dong Zhuo."

"Both of them used to be famous for their bravery in Liangzhou."

"Dong Zhuo admired their bravery, so he took them both under his command."

"Although Zhuo treated him as a confidant, he did not attract his confidants."

"Now that Dong Zhuo is seriously ill and the Liangzhou army is pinned down in Xiliang, these two people must have the most active minds."

"If my prediction is correct, the two of them must be willing to join a force and find a future for themselves."

Liu Jian said: "Wen He thinks I should surrender these two people, right?"

Jia Xu was silent for a moment, and then said: "If the Lord wants to recruit Li Jue and Guo Si, they will definitely comply."

"But I just don't know if the lord is willing to surrender these two people."

Xun Yu on the side cupped his hands and said: "My lord, as far as I know, Li Jue and Guo Bang are vicious people. The Xiliang soldiers led by them have killed the most Li Shu people under Dong Zhuo in recent years."

"As for the Xiliang generals under Dong Zhuo, these two are the most difficult to restrain."

"Especially in the past two years, these two men secretly went to Yingchuan to quell the rebellion on Dong Zhuo's order. Many people in Yingchuan at that time were killed by these two men. They killed people, broke their homes, seized grain and grass in the countryside, and carried out military plunder. Rape/harlot women, what they do can be said to be outrageous to both humans and gods."

"Although Dong Zhuo has put more restraints on Xiliang soldiers in recent years, Li Jue and Guo Si disobeyed Dong Zhuo's military orders. On the surface, they were quite afraid of Dong Zhuo's military orders, but secretly they did not obey them. Every time they went out to fight, they brought disaster to one side. , this matter is known to everyone in the world, and the wealthy and distinguished families in all parts of the Central Plains deeply hate these two people."

"Even ordinary Li Shu, when they hear Li Guo's name, they are frightened and wish they could eat his flesh alive."

"If the lord wants to recruit these two, although it can expand the strength of our army and cut off the arm of the imperial court, it will be quite damaging to the lord's reputation. Moreover, these two people are also wolf-hearted, and they may not be sincere. Submit yourself to the Lord."

"Besides, one of Guo Si's toes was broken in our Hebei army back then. This man was a horse thief and was narrow-minded. I'm afraid he still harbors resentment."

Liu Jian was silent for a while, and then looked at Jia Xu again.

"Wen He, do you have any strategies against Li Jue and Guo Si?"

"Have!"

"Haha, I've known you for a long time. How should I deal with Li Jue and Guo Si?"

"According to my inference, Wang Yun has no troops available for the time being, so he must have pretended to protect the two of them, and tried to alienate them first, so that the two of them would deal a heavy blow to Wang Yun, Yang Biao and others, and lower the morale of the court and Wang Yun. Waiting for others' prestige, and then getting rid of these two people to enhance the lord's prestige, it can be said to kill two birds with one stone."

After a pause, Jia Xu smiled and said: "Everyone under Dong Zhuo's command is very useful. If these people are used well, the lord can easily capture Guanzhong!"
