Yu Yue said coldly: "According to your point of view, neither Confucianism nor metaphysics can make people truly equal, so what is Liu Yu doing now? Isn't he using the banner of loyalty and filial piety? Isn’t it Confucianism?”
The black robe shook his head: "Liu Yu is just using Confucianism as a banner and cover. What he really wants to achieve is complete equality for everyone, or in other words, to make everyone have hope and have the opportunity to rely on themselves. This is fundamentally in conflict with the Confucian ideals of settling one's destiny and adhering to hierarchy and order."
Yu Yue frowned: "But he himself needs to have the power of an emperor. He can command the world and let everyone act according to his will. Isn't this exactly what Confucianism does?"
The black robe smiled and said: "He wants this power to do great things, to establish new rules and order. Through the Northern Expedition, people will have the opportunity to make contributions, and then let these newly made common people get titles and official positions to replace you old ones. As a child of an aristocratic family, when he succeeds in the Northern Expedition, the power of the world will be completely redistributed. At that time, his education will also be popularized. The children of ordinary people will not be much worse in knowledge and culture than the children of your aristocratic family, and they can pass through If you join the army and fight to gain power at the grassroots level, what do you have left?”
Yu Yue gritted his teeth: "What you said so much is just to prove that Liu Yu's approach is almost impossible to crack. This kind of behavior is under the banner of Confucian loyalty and filial piety, and in the name of the Northern Expedition, which is the most important event of the Jin Dynasty. By sending out troops for conquest, we can also get rid of the kind of bellicosity that causes the country to
Accusations of family peril, our Taoist metaphysics are content with
The theory of destiny, Taoism, and rule by inaction cannot compete with the righteous Northern Expedition, and cannot suppress these ordinary people who have made contributions and gained power in the Northern Expedition. This is what you said, in terms of giving people hope, It's not as good as Liu Yu, so can it be resolved according to your method? "
The black robe nodded: "If Hou Qin sends troops, the premise is that Liu Yu is not allowed to participate in the battle to pacify the Tianshi Dao. Liu Yu's current epidemic disease in the army has not been resolved. Even if he wants to go out, he is still too ambitious and unable to do so. In these two months, the only ones who can save Jin and hold back the Heavenly Master are the soldiers and horses of Later Qin."
Yu Yue shook his head: "There is also Liu Daogui. Didn't he just win the battle in Jingzhou? Can't he cut off the demon thief's retreat from behind, and even attack the demon thief's hometown in Guangzhou to force him to divide his troops or even retreat?"
The black robe laughed: "This time when Tianshi Dao raises troops, they are using a radical strategy of never returning. Why do we need a hometown? Liu Daogui in Jingzhou, even if he takes Jingnan, even if he invades Guangzhou, he can't stop ten people. Tens of thousands of Tianshi Dao troops rushed towards Jiankang. If he followed behind and wanted to pursue Tianshi Dao's army, he would only be ambushed by Tianshi Dao and the whole army would be annihilated. This kind of thing did not happen to him half a year ago. At that time, Tan Daoji also led his army to follow Tianshi Dao's army in an attempt to delay, but the result was a disastrous failure, and Tan Daoji himself was almost defeated."
When the black robe said this, he paused: "So, if you want to stop the troops of Tianshi Dao, after Liu Yi's defeat, only Liu Yu himself can send troops. Even if Meng Huaiyu leads the remaining troops in Yuzhou and Jiankang, It is not enough to resist the attack of Tianshi Dao. Even if they do not cooperate with Later Qin, Sima Guofan and others can lead the Later Qin soldiers to attack Yuzhou directly, and then take the lead and enter Jiankang City first."
Yu Yue sighed: "If things are really like you
Based on this kind of analysis, this is almost the only option.
However, if the cost of bringing in the troops of the Later Qin Dynasty is to allow Sima Guofan and Sima Chuzhi to return, and then separate part of the Qilu land and give it to the Later Qin Dynasty as a thank you, can Liu Yu agree? "
A cold light flashed in the black robe's eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "The first condition for Later Qin to send troops is that Liu Yu can only garrison in Nanyan and Jiangbei, and is not allowed to return to Jiankang. Naturally, I have a way to force Liu Yu to do this. It doesn’t make sense that he is unable to save Jiankang and does not allow others to save him.”
"Since Liu Yu likes to talk about justice, loyalty and filial piety in everything, when the country is in trouble and he is asked to be loyal, he must put the overall situation first. As long as Sima Guofan and Sima Chuzhi take the initiative to ask for war, there is no reason for Liu Yu not to pardon Even if Liu Yu does not bow his head, Meng Chang, Xu Xianzhi, and even Wang Miaoyin, who are in charge of Jiankang City, will directly issue an edict. As long as Liu Yu and Liu Muzhi are not in the capital, then this matter can be easily settled.
Come. "
Yu Yue laughed: "At this time, I should be in the capital. I'm fighting guerrillas here, but I can't preside over major events in the capital, and I can't hold meetings of the Black Hand Universe."
The black robe waved his hand: "If Liu Yi is defeated miserably, why is there any need to hold this meeting of the Black Hand Qiankun? If he comes back and wants to lead the army to fight again, what will you do? Hand over these three thousand soldiers Should I give him a comeback, or should I not give him a chance and end up hurting my relationship with him head-on?"
Yu Yue sighed: "What you said makes sense, but now I feel that when this kind of war comes, if I will not participate in the Jiankang defense war but will fight guerrillas here as an auxiliary, then when it comes to evaluation after the war, how can I Wouldn't it be a big loss? How can we defeat Xu Xianzhi and Meng Chang, win the first victory in this battle, and become the leader of the aristocratic family?"
The black robe smiled and said: "If Liu Yi is defeated this time,
, then his position of guarding the Black Hand Qiankun will not be guaranteed.
Well, the three of you can find a way to let Sima Guofan take over the position and replace Liu Yi. In this way, you don't have to worry about Liu Yi taking the opportunity to retaliate. As for Xu Xianzhi and Meng Chang, they are civil servants and cannot lead troops in battle. They will judge their merits after the war, but they are far inferior to you, a hero who went deep behind enemy lines and fought alone. Didn't I say before that you are equivalent to Peng Yue and Yingbu? What a great achievement. "
Yu Yue nodded: "Then, what can I do to expel Liu Yi from the Black Hand Universe? Will he hold a grudge and betray us to Liu Yu?"
A smile flashed in the black robe's eyes: "If Liu Yi was defeated this time and escaped alone and lost everything, what qualifications would he have to stay in the mafia? A defeated general and a hero who saves the country, everyone will Who do you listen to? Sima Guofan returns, and if he performs meritorious service, you can just insert him into the Black Hand Universe, and make it clear to him that by returning to the previous period when kings and horses shared the world, you can give him certain powers of the Sima clan, and pull him into the world. Together with the clan, they deal with Liu Yu.
"As for Sima Chuzhi, after defeating Tianshi Dao, you can leave Yuzhou or Jiangzhou in the west to him, but you can arrange for the officials in these two places to be the nephews of the Yu family or the children of the aristocratic families who listen to you Take responsibility, and in this way, the power of the world will come back."
