Liu Yu looked at Liu Yi calmly: "Didn't I say this in the court last time?"
Liu Yi's expression changed, and he sneered: "Have you already said that? Are you going to make your good brother Liu Daogui the governor of Jingzhou? Don't forget that he is also a defeated general now. You dismissed Liu Jingxuan from office, but Is it reasonable to ask him to become the governor of Jingzhou?"
Liu Yu said calmly: "Then Dao Gui went to Jingzhou with you and Wuji before and made great achievements many times. However, I did not promote him, but let him continue to fight. This time I attacked Shu, but in the end he set up a trap." The camp plan was defeated and counterattacked, so that the Shu army did not dare to pursue. Previously, Ah Shou and Mao Xiuzhi made a sudden attack with light troops. He also gave many advices, but they were not accepted. So what do you think I should do this time? What about him? What's more, Jingzhou is an important place, with demons and thieves to the south, Yongzhou to the north, and Bashu to the west. It has to be a handsome man with both military and political skills. If the Taoist regulations are not here, who will go? Xi Le, you or Wuji you go?"
Liu Yi was silent for a long time, then gritted his teeth: "Even if only Liu Daogui can take on this important task now, he is the defeated general after all, so you don't punish him at all. It doesn't make sense."
Liu Yu nodded: "Of course. He took over the post of General Fuguo before. Although he does not bear the main responsibility for this defeat, he should be demoted. In my opinion, he should be demoted back to General Jianwei." how?"
He Wuji smiled and said: "This time in the expedition to Shu, Ah Shou and Dao Gui suffered a big loss. Originally, Ah Shou took over Xile's champion general, and Dao Gui took over my auxiliary general, but now, one of them has been directly wiped out. , one falls back to its original state, fighting is risky, so you need to be cautious when leading troops."
Liu Yi gritted his teeth: "Then let him take charge of Jingzhou alone. Isn't it too much? It just so happened that Changmin also led the army to replace Liu Huaisu. I think, let Changmin be the captain of the Southern Barbarians and the commander-in-chief of the military in Jingzhou. , how about using the power of dividing the road?"
Liu Yu said seriously: "Xile, this matter is not a trivial matter. You and I both know that although the Changmin can fight well, they are extremely greedy. Everywhere they go, they will plunder desperately. There is great resentment among the people. I asked him to guard Li." It has only been half a year since the Yang Dynasty, and there have been hundreds of memorials to impeach him by the soldiers and the people. You don't know this. Jingzhou has just been pacified, and the soldiers and people are not very welcoming to us. At this time, if the military and political chiefs are still scratching the ground, it will not affect the people's hearts. If we lose everything, not only will we not be able to get the food, manpower, and ordnance we need from Jingzhou, but we will have to invest a large number of troops here to suppress it, so what's the point?"
Liu Yi sneered and said: "But among us Jingba brothers, there are a lot of people who can fight, but few who can govern. After the death of Rabbit, apart from a few of us, there will only be Zhuge Changmin. Don't let him be here." Jingzhou, who else can we send?"
Liu Yu curled his lips and said: "Zhu Chaoshi, Tan Daoji, Wang Zhene, these rising stars are all good at fighting. Dao Gui can temporarily take over the post of Nanman captain, and then divide the troops to these young generals, and his main energy If you use it for governance, you will have no worries."
Liu Yi gritted his teeth: "What about Changmin? You want him who was originally the governor of Yuzhou to lead troops to Jingzhou, and now you want me to be the governor of Yuzhou and occupy his position. Then how do you arrange for Changmin?"
Liu Yu nodded: "We can't let the Changmin go to the Wu area for the time being. It's a prosperous place where the country will produce grain and soldiers in the future. If we let him go, I'm afraid there will be trouble. It's better to let the Changmin go to Huaibei. I'll transfer Pengcheng's people." When Yang Muzhi came back, he served as the domestic historian of Wu and guarded the territory of Wu. Changmin and his two brothers were placed in Huaibei to take over Liu Gai's original post of governor of Beiqingzhou. I also transferred Liu Daolian, the internal historian of Pengcheng, back to Huaibei. If you have any idle position, you can be stable."
He Wuji smiled and said: "Jinu, you gave up your family's position to Changmin, but didn't you originally want Huaisu to go out to control Huaibei? Now that it's Changmin, how can you follow him? He explains?"
Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "Things have changed. It turned out that I thought Ashou and the others could pacify Xishu, so that everyone would have somewhere to go. But now, the failure of the conquest of Shu has triggered a complete change. The established areas of our three giants It will not change, but the ones given to the brothers can only be squeezed. I will let Huaisu go home without work, and I will use him again if there is a war later."
He Wuji sighed: "Let's see, Jinu, if Changmin guards Huaibei, you may not have an excuse to start a war with Nanyan in a short time. Moreover, according to our original plan, we should first pacify the demon thieves in Lingnan, and then proceed. Northern Expedition. If you feel really sorry for Huai Su, let him come to me. But I have something to say first. If he comes, he must obey my orders completely and cannot do his own thing. To pacify Lingnan, I must be the leader. This Now, I don’t want to give credit to anyone, not even you two.”
Liu Yi sneered and said: "Don't worry, Wuji, I think the slave will not only send Huai Su to you, but maybe Ah Shou will come too. Lingnan is only so big. See how you are going to divide the credit into three parts." share."
He Wuji frowned and did not continue to speak. Liu Yu shook his head: "Wuji, don't worry, I promised to let you do your work alone, and I won't send anyone else, unless you take the initiative to ask for reinforcements to help, I said However, as long as you speak, I will definitely help you with all my strength. As for Huaisu, even in the past, he was completely obedient to your orders. If he does not obey orders, you can exercise your authority as the commander and act according to military law!"
He Wuji curled his lips and said, "Let's talk about this later. You need to comfort him first. I know Huaisu. He has a very strong ambition for meritorious service. He has clearly made meritorious deeds but was dismissed from office. It's hard to accept." . Don’t just suppress him just because he is your brother, this is not good.”
Liu Yi gritted his teeth: "After doing this for a long time, I don't seem to have any practical benefits. Jinu, is this all your sincerity?"
Liu Yu looked at Liu Yi and said slowly: "In addition to the original two states of Yu and Yan, the military forces of these five counties are also Huainan County in Jiangbei, Jiangxia, Anfeng, Tangyi in Jingzhou, and Lujiang in Jiangzhou. I gave it all to you, Commander-in-Chief, are you satisfied this time?"
The corner of Liu Yi's mouth curled up: "You really gave me a county in Jiangbei, but wasn't it Guangling County? Why did it become Huainan?"
Liu Yu said calmly: "Guangling wants to connect Jiangnan and Jiangbei. I gave Huaibei Pengcheng to Changmin. Then I will personally leave Zhenjiangbei. I can only go to the Beifu Army camp outside Guangling City. Xile, everything is done in moderation, Huaisu I withdrew, and all the Jiangxia granaries he guarded were given to you. Wuji's Lujiang County was also given to you. The entire transportation from the middle reaches of the Yangtze River to Jiankang was in your hands. Xile, if you still If you’re not satisfied, it’s just too much.”
Liu Yi raised his brows, his eyes sparkling, and finally gritted his teeth: "I agree!"
Liu Yu breathed a long sigh of relief and picked up a bartender on the case: "To our dead brothers, and to our future great cause, we will go our separate ways tomorrow. Today, we will not return until we are drunk!"
