Liu Yu shook his head and said: "At that time, the former Qin Dynasty was going south. If we don't join the army to serve the country, our country will be destroyed and our family will be destroyed. The entire Han nation will cease to exist. Do you want to live like the Hulu?"
Liu Yi curled his lips in disdain: "The barbarians have occupied the north for almost a hundred years, and the Han people in the north still live as they please? Xiang Ping, Rabbit, Yanda and the others went south really just because they wanted to preserve Chinese clothes. ?Don’t be stupid. They had lived a good life in the north for decades before, and I had never seen them so loyal and patriotic. It wasn’t because Fu Jian went south to recruit troops on a large scale. In order to avoid military service, especially because they didn’t want to be enemies with the Han people, That’s why they moved their families south, but how many are like them?”
Liu Yu said in a deep voice: "But this time when I went to the Northern Yan to attack Southern Yan, I saw that the people of Qilu all came out to welcome the king and joined the army enthusiastically. This is different from what you said."
Liu Yi sneered and said: "If you lose the battle in Linqu, see if they will come to greet you. These common people will only be so active when the king's flag changes in their hometown city and they need to stand up again and express their stance. Moreover, It is not the ordinary people who make these decisions, but the powerful people who control them. In our Jin Dynasty, you see the high-ranking families, but all over the world, it is more the local powerful people who manage the people at the bottom."
Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "So, we can only let this situation continue forever. We will always leave the people of the world to aristocratic families, or to such local powerful people to govern, so that the imperial court will never be able to control these people, forever The world can only be managed through these aristocratic families and powerful men, right?"
Liu Yi smiled slightly: "So, we have to find a way to turn ourselves into a new aristocratic family, a court? What is a court? A court that lets others give orders, so why not let yourself manage it?"
Liu Yu said in a deep voice: "You are trying to go back to the old path of aristocratic families, Xile, how can you be so confused? Think about how we suppressed those incompetent and dominant aristocratic families back then, think about how we We were bullied by the Diao family, do you want our descendants to become people like Diao Kui?"
Liu Yi curled his lips: "That is a matter for future generations. You want to maintain the ambition of future generations through competition and lowering the title every generation. I don't object to this, but I don't think so. , what’s wrong with the idea that the ancestors came up with the idea of aristocratic families and gentry to govern the world? This division of scholars, farmers, industry and commerce existed thousands of years ago, but it was not invented by the Black Hand Qiankun later. Send a slave, if you don’t have Let everyone in the world believe in you and your ability, I advise you not to go against the general trend of the world."
Speaking of this, Liu Yi said in a deep voice: "Tianshi Dao is actually the same as you. It started under the banner of injustice and oppression. The Yellow Turbans in the late Han Dynasty also said all day long that the sky is dead and the Yellow Turbans Heaven was established to buy people's hearts to rebel with them. But we all know that these cultists are not really for the common people, they are just raising some banners. Do you think you will be recognized among the people and the soldiers now? How can it be better than these swindlers?"
Liu Yu said sternly: "I believe that I am dedicated to the public good. Most of the people in the world believe in me and are willing to follow me, instead of just following you for some immediate benefits. I have more than a dozen people to conquer Nanyan." Thousands of troops are following me, but you have been operating in Yuzhou for so many years and only have 30,000 or 40,000 troops. Are you saying that the people who follow me are not as good as you?"
Liu Yi sneered: "You have such an army because you are fighting a big war and recruiting troops across the board. You only have fifty or sixty thousand standing troops in Yangzhou. I originally prepared sixty or seventy thousand this time." The army attacked because they wanted to catch the demon thieves off guard, so they did not bring troops recruited from all over Yuzhou. Slave, these elite soldiers and generals are not necessarily for your noble ideals. What they want is real benefits. , you will stay safe this time, but you can no longer talk about righteousness."
Liu Yu nodded: "This time I have given an order to recruit warriors to defend the city according to the reward when Jingkou was founded. Even civilians, as long as they can contribute, will be calculated according to this standard. We will not talk about the big principles, only this. When you return to defend the city, I have given you such a standard, which should help you draw the family members and servants to form an army."
Liu Yi raised his eyebrows: "But this will offend the major families. You can do this during the war. After all, everyone has to stick together to survive. But after the war, if you hold these people captive, you will take away the family." They won’t agree to the fundamentals.”
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "I don't want them to have these powers of aristocratic families all the time. Don't you want to become a new aristocratic family? Isn't it beneficial to you to take the power of other families for your own use? ? Do you think that you will always be suppressed by these big aristocratic families, and you will always be a second- or third-rate family? "
Liu Yi looked directly at Liu Yu and said in a deep voice: "What's going on with you now? Today you told me that you want to seize the power of the aristocratic family, especially the power of the intelligence organization, and then you told me to become a new aristocratic family, give me Benefits, isn't this contradictory? Or are you planning to attack me again after excluding the existing high-ranking families?"
Liu Yu said calmly: "If I have such an idea, I can deal with you today with military law. What should I do in the future? I will naturally have a way to collect the intelligence of these aristocratic families in the name of concentrating my strength this time. Personnel and secret guards, it’s just that it will be difficult to deal with the subsequent relationship in the future. If you, as the representative of the family in the military and the emerging family, do this kind of thing, I think you will be better qualified than me. "
Liu Yi gritted his teeth: "Then you are not afraid that I will regain my strength, even better than before, and you will be unable to control it in the future?"
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "Xile, we started from the Jingba Party, which is a giant model. I have not rejected you. As long as you are of the same mind as me and are willing to realize the great ambition of making the country strong, expelling the barbarians, and seeking welfare for the people of the world, then From now on, we can share the wealth of the world. As long as you do not segregate yourself for the selfish interests of one family and one surname, causing the Jin Dynasty to fall into division and civil war again, your promise to divide the land, divide the territory, and worship the prime minister and ennoble you is still valid! "
Liu Yi's eyes sparkled. He stared at Liu Yu and said in a deep voice, "Do you really mean what you say? Do you dare to swear?"
Liu Yu laughed loudly, pointed to the sky, stood up, and solemnly said: "I, Liu Yu, swear here that as long as Liu Yi and Liu Xile are united with me, we will expel the barbarians and benefit the people, and we will not harm the country for personal gain of one family or one surname. People, then I am willing to divide the world equally with them. Heaven is above. If you violate this oath, it will be difficult for me to accomplish my great cause, and my Liu family will fight against each other!"
