Uncle, please help the Han family

"I have no objection."

Even if it is as uncomfortable as eating Xiang, those aristocratic families can only bite the bullet and eat it, and they have to smile and say it is really delicious.

After the ideological work was done, Liu Yu began to point out: "That's good, Xian Yufu listens to orders."

"The end is here."

In the camp of generals, a general with a stature of about eight feet (180), strong body, dark complexion, and rough appearance stood out.

Xian Yufu is Xian Yuyin's younger brother. He currently holds a post in Youzhou. He commands the army strictly and has a high degree of loyalty. He also joined the alliance against Gongsun Zan after his death... This is really strange.

In short, he is a reliable subordinate.

Liu Yu sent someone to fetch a soldier talisman for mobilizing troops, handed it to Xian Yufu himself, and then ordered: "Xian Yufu, I ordered you to select thousands of weak and elderly soldiers from the headquarters of Jicheng and the counties of Youzhou. , and marched toward the junction of Zhuojun, Guangyang, and Yuyang, and began to farm."

Farming is an activity that needs to endure loneliness, and some generals are more suitable, such as Yu Jin.Of course, some people can't do it, such as Zhang Fei.Therefore, the most important thing to carry out work is to give full play to the talents and bring out the advantages and specialties of each subordinate.

"Here!" Xian Yufu said with a resolute expression as he took the soldier talisman with both hands.

"Tian Chou, you are in charge of writing the detailed rules for grazing farms, formulating garrison orders and issuing them to all counties and counties, recruiting refugees, and starting farming within half a month. There must be no mistakes."

Summarizing the crystallization of the wisdom of the predecessors, Liu Yu knows that the best form of cooperation is one general and one political commissar.Let Xian Yufu, who is good at running the army, be in charge of the management of the army, and Tian Chou, who is good at government affairs, is in charge of the propaganda and distribution work. One piece of paper, one military, one soft and one hard, perfectly implement the policy in place.

And Liu Yu also discovered just now that Tian Chou is very supportive of the Tuntian Order, so he should be more dedicated in doing things.

"Here." Tian Chou also accepted this arrangement, feeling very honored.

The problem of the refugees was solved, or in other words, after we had a solution that could be solved, we came to the very sensitive topic - barbarians.

Really very sensitive.

"My lord, I believe that the Hu people are cruel and barbaric. We should not make friends with them. There is only one war." Before everyone could think about what to say, Gongsun Fan stood up directly and recommended himself, "I beg your orders to adjust most of Youzhou." Soldiers and horses, go to war against King Wuhuan Qiao, and wipe out the main force of the Hu people in one fell swoop!"

Gongsun Fan is Gongsun Zan's cousin, and he has a very clear Gongsun Zan camp, and is different from Gongsun Zan who was born to his concubine.

Of course, the current Gongsun Zan is the leader of the Gongsun clan, so Gongsun Fan's attitude is equal to Gongsun Zan's attitude, an absolute fighter.

If the prefect of Youzhou was not airborne by the imperial court, but was held by Gongsun Zan, then these guys might have to come up with a "killing Hu order".

It's very extreme.

"General Gongsun's courage is commendable, but we should wait for the adults to discuss it before making a decision." Of course Liu Yu did not agree.

I will command you the soldiers and horses of Jicheng, when the time comes, you will join forces with Gongsun Zan's army and directly behead me?

What about your mother?

"The barbarian is a recalcitrant and hard-to-raise beast, he must be taught a good lesson, and the final general agrees to go to war!"

"Yeah, we must fight, and we must fight."

"Didn't General Gongsun send the barbarian who attacked the lord before? We'll cut off that guy's head and send it directly to King Wuhuanqiao's tent, and give him a letter of truce, and we'll fight every day!"

All the generals were on fire, especially the arrogant female school lieutenant, who gritted her teeth.

By the way, the number of female generals in the army is the same as that of male generals, and there are even more female generals in some states. After all, mother stones and women are more compatible.Moreover, just like the men who want to fight when they disagree with each other, they also don't have any good impressions of the Hu people, and they think that fists are more important than everything.

This point is actually easy to understand. For example, the leader of the War of Chibi was Zhang Zhao, the leader of civil servants, and the fanatical main battle faction was the leader of military generals, American Wolf. Once the status reached a certain level, the generals hoped to use a wonderful Victory gilded his three-foot sword.

But war is a continuation of politics.

Therefore, the consideration should not only be victory or defeat, but more importantly, the cost of victory or defeat.

Of course it is possible to win. The frontier troops of the Han Dynasty are all elite troops of the Han Dynasty. Gongsun Zan in Hebei and Dong Zhuo in Xiliang are all famous anti-Hu heroes. If Gongsun Zan came to lead the troops, it would be more stable.

But what good is winning?

The city cannot be occupied, because the barbarians do not have a decent civilization.

You can't conquer the people, because the barbarians are all troublemakers.

Even if they win a big victory, there is no way to completely wipe them out, because they have horses and can run further north.

But what if we lose?

Three massacres in Jiading, ten days in Yangzhou.

The horror of nomadic civilization is their shamelessness.

Fighting against these shameless people, you won't get any benefits if you win, and the people will suffer the bloodiest massacre if you lose.

Liu Yu seems to understand why he adopted a soft policy towards the Hu people in history. This is the same as Zhuge Liang captured Meng Huo seven times without killing him. Politicians only consider interests. If the cost is huge, then this war is meaningless.

Of course he wanted to kill the barbarian who attacked him, and the ashes were thrown away.

Yes, but not necessary.

"What do you think of Zhao Gai?" Although Liu Yu had decided not to fight, he still wanted to act like a democratic discussion, so he asked Zhao Gai again.

"My lord..." Zhao Gai was a little hesitant, because the imperial court chose to let Liu Yu parachute to mean Huairou. After all, the country can't send troops to help, and the power of a state can't win completely, so the best way is to fight if you can't fight .However, after experiencing the incident where the lord was almost killed, he began to lose his mind.

My lord, do you want to fight?

Zhao Gai struggled for a long time but couldn't come up with a reason, so Liu Yu directly called the name: "Qi Zhou, tell me."

Before Liu Yu took office, Qi Zhou had represented a state, so he had a better understanding of the situation.Considering it from a politician's point of view, he replied directly: "My lord, the exchange market."

As soon as this statement came out, there was an uproar.

"Mutual market? No mutual market."

"I was beaten by someone just now, and now I have to do business with someone. This is absolutely not acceptable."

"It must be fought. Only when the barbarians see blood can Youzhou be peaceful."

The so-called mutual market is to open a trading market to allow people in border areas to conduct free trade.If the mutual market policy is determined, it is equivalent to acquiescing-the two sides are not allowed to go to war.

But after so many battles, whether it is the generals or the people, they are very malicious towards the Hu people, and they are more inclined to fight a fucking battle.

Therefore, Gongsun Fan is now trying his best to facilitate this battle.

As long as there is a battle, Youzhou will have to rely on our Gongsun family.

It's a bit difficult to handle, and they all want to fight.

It's not that Liu Yu doesn't want to fight, it's just that he thinks he can't fight now, but if all his subordinates are the main combat faction, then if he insists on going his own way, it will chill their hearts, and the work of the mutual market will not be easy to carry out.

In a delicate mood, he looked around and saw that Zhao Zilong seemed to have something to say, so he raised his hand with a smile: "Zilong, please tell me."

"Thank you, my lord..."

Zhao Ziyu did have something to say, but when Liu Yu pointed at her, she froze and froze.

Why do you call others by their full names, but I am Zilong.

Moreover, I laughed...

My lord is so serious.

"The lower official believes that to eradicate the evils, we should attack them one by one."

As a middle-level officer in the former Baimayi Cong, Zhao Ziyu has rich experience in fighting Hu, so when she speaks, both civil and military officials in Youzhou attach great importance to it. After all, among these people, no one is better than Zhao Ziyu. Know more about fighting against Hu.

Liu Yu sat upright and asked earnestly, "How to break through one by one, please tell Zilong."

After thinking about it for a while, Zhao Ziyu explained in detail: "The Hu people lived far outside the Great Wall, and they lived as nomads. They grazed in their spare time and became soldiers in wartime. Although they did not have a unified country, when fighting against the Han people, their tribes could quickly Based on the combat experience of the Hu people, the officials below roughly estimated that the Hu people may mobilize 40 to [-] combat troops. The entire Youzhou has only [-] soldiers, and even less than [-] cavalry. Although the victory lies in the excellent equipment , but the disparity in mobility is too great. Therefore, the lower official believes that we should focus on Huairou, supplemented by combat, and only attack tribes that take the initiative to provoke."

Although Zhao Ziyu had more victories and fewer defeats when fighting Nomad under Gongsun Zan's men, she often felt powerless, so she thought it was impossible to completely defeat the opponent.

"Zi Yu's words are deeply rooted in the essence of the art of war." Because it touched Liu Yu's heart, he exaggerated directly and clearly.

Moreover, Zhao Ziyu really understands that if a war is to be won at the lowest cost, then one principle must be adhered to - unite the majority, strike a small group, the culprit must be dealt with, and the coercion should not be questioned.

The crux of the problem is which Hu people can make friends with each other and which ones cannot.

"The barbarians are difficult to raise, and they can break their promises for petty gains. If we give it a piece of meat today, it will not offend us. If we don't give meat tomorrow, then it will eat us."

"Yes, yes, this is not a long-term occasion, and one day they will definitely unite for greater interests, so we must guard against it."

"Besides, the Hu people have always been hostile to the Han people. If we attack one of them, what should we do if the rest come to sneak up on us?"

They also understand what Zhao Ziyu said, but racial hatred is a seed planted since childhood, and they are really not sure-do you remember the grudge, my lord?

Seeing that the debate was about to start again, Qi Zhou stood up at the right time, and said to Youzhou Wenwu, "Everyone, please look here."

When we were talking, several officials brought out a map, and Qi Zhou explained to the map: "The Hu people outside the Great Wall are nothing more than the Qianghu, Xianbei, Wuhuan, Fuyu, Goguryeo and other tribes, among which they are divided into three groups. There are countless tribes. Among them, Fuyu Koguryo is close to General Gongsun Zan's garrison, so they seldom commit crimes in the south, and Qianghu is far away from Youzhou. It is not a concern to be intimidated by Xiliang cavalry. Therefore, the main thing to guard against is Xianbei Wuhuan Two tribes. Among them, the Xianbei once captured a Han named Yan Rou, but because Yan Rou was smart and smart, he was well liked by the Xianbei people and had a high prestige among the Xianbei people, so we can make friends with the Xianbei people through him. "

"So, what's the price?" Liu Yu likes to listen to people who do things, so he doesn't meander and get straight to the point.

After thinking about it for a while, Qi Zhou replied: "Biaozuo the imperial court, canonized the leaders of the Xianbei tribes as princes, and sent people to send some rewards from the imperial court."

As soon as he finished speaking, some people were about to stand up and object, but Liu Yu quickly interrupted: "It's just a vain name. If these titles can stabilize the north, that would be great."

"As for Wuhuan..." Qi Zhou raised his head, looked at Liu Yu, and hesitated for a while.

"Say."

"King Wuhuan Qiao."

"No!" A young female general directly denied, and looked at Liu Yu eagerly, "This thief almost killed the lord, and must be severely punished!"

This sentence is exactly what Gongsun Fan wanted.

Liu Yu has been an official in Jiyou these years, and his policy towards the Hu people has always been gentle, so those among the Hu people are highly regarded. To put it in a disobedient way, they have never seen the emperor, and Liu Yu is equivalent to theirs. emperor.But this time, an eyeless bastard nearly killed him.Now, no matter how benevolent a person is, he can't swallow this bad breath.

Besides, that kid from Cheluhui was captured alive by Gongsun Zan and sent here, so why don't he just throw it into the frying pan for fun?

Gongsun Fan is now looking forward to Liu Yu's reaction very much. As long as he shows a little hesitation, he will immediately show his loyalty and ask to lead the army to fight and seek justice for the lord.

Get angry quickly.

"The news that they attacked my convoy should have reached King Qiao's tent." Liu Yu's mood was still calm, without any disturbance, "And King Qiao should be very panicked now, after all, he I owe him a favor. At this time, let's make a favor, put him back, and give him a little favor, he will be grateful and no longer allow his subordinates to attack."

"...My lord!" Gongsun Fan was dumbfounded. He didn't expect that this kind of deep hatred would be brought over so lightly. He quickly said, "But, my lord was almost killed by those beasts..."

"Benmu's personal matters are small, but the peace of the people of Youzhou is the most important. I have made up my mind, so there is no need to say more."

"..." The main fighters, including Gongsun Fan, were all stunned speechless, but the lord had said so, so he had no choice but to give up.

Liu Yu was also very angry. He really wanted to execute that Che Luhui to death. After all, after seeing the slaughtered village, he now felt extremely disgusted with these demons.But at this time, you can't fight, you can only grow wretchedly.

"After the envoy of Benmu reached a consensus with the Hu people, we will open the mutual market between the two counties of Shanggudai County and call on the people to start trading with the Hu people. After that, all armies are not allowed to fight without authorization, and those who violate the order will be severely punished." After Liu Yu finished the prohibition, he got up again An equally important order was added, "However, if the barbarians invade, you must follow me to stop the enemy from outside the Great Wall!"

After experiencing that kind of purgatory on earth, Liu Yu just wanted to live well.

If he was driven by hatred and resorted to fighting Hu with all the strength of the whole state, after Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, he would lose the strength to compete in the Central Plains.

And maybe it will be annexed by Gongsun Zan, who is getting stronger and stronger through the war.

Endure for one year, just endure for this year, when the time comes, the ashes of these dog baskets must be hoisted into the sky.

Even the victim of the attack said that he didn't care about it anymore, and the others couldn't say anything, they could only follow orders.

Gongsun Fan was upset because there was no more battle to fight.

But Zhao Ziyu felt more and more that this new lord was different from others.

Gongsun Zan is a talented general, but he is too militaristic. In order to strengthen his own strength, he even condoned his soldiers to rob the people many times.

Put personal grievances last, treat the common people more than anything else, and appreciate me so much...

If the lord is willing to reuse me as a general, he will definitely serve with all his might!

"Qi Zhou, Zhao Gai, and Zilong stay here." Just as Zhao Zilong was thinking this way, Liu Yu suddenly said, "The rest of the adults, please go back."

Moreover, because three people were called in succession this time, the word 'Zi Yu' was particularly prominent.

To put it in a more intimate way, it would be——

Everyone, please go back, but Lord Qi, Lord Zhao, and Yunyun stay here.

Just now Zhao Ziyu thought that the lord was a little partial, but now he is sure - this is partiality!

But I have only joined the lord for a few days, can I become the confidant of the lord?

Is this a kind of imperial order...

Chapter 11 I want a barbarian's horse

Through the first morning meeting, Liu Yu could see that although he was the highest official of Youzhou in name, his foundation was not stable, especially in this era when the aristocratic family was in power and even Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao had to compromise. There is no way to cover the sky with one hand.For example, those officials who blatantly refute themselves from below are not easy to control.

After all, their officials are all bought. To them, being an official is just getting tired of enjoying the glory and wealth, so they just have fun.In essence, it is like certain capital consortiums trying to use the economy to manipulate politics in order to seek greater benefits.

Of course, there are still many people who can be trusted, such as Xian Yuyin, Xian Yufu, Tian Chou and others, otherwise Liu Yu would not directly name them.

But this is not enough, Liu Yu needs a confidant.
