"What Yuan Tan means...is the root cause of Jiangdong people's xenophobia?"
Liu Zhang answered tentatively.
As for Jiangdong, Liu Zhang, as a time traveler, actually didn't know much about it.
It is different from the Central Plains and Hebei families, different from the border families, and completely different from the Sichuan and Shu families.
The Jiangdong family seems to be a very special group.
Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Liu Zhang has traveled all over the world and read countless people.
Whether they are people from Hebei, the Central Plains, Northwest, Bashu, or Jingchu, almost everyone from the noble family to the common people understands it.
Only about Jiangdong, there is a huge information gap.
I only know the general situation, but I don’t know the specific details.
It wasn't until Lu Xun returned that the two of them accidentally chatted about the matter and got to know each other better.
Otherwise, now I really can only listen, not speak.
It was precisely because of the exchange with Lu Xun that Gu Yong was shocked again with just one sentence.
"As expected of King Qin, he can see through the key points at a glance!"
"The problems of the Jiangdong family are very complicated, and everything stems from external pressure!"
"Not to mention now, even during the heyday of the Han Dynasty, the Jiangdong family is extremely xenophobic."
"In fact, it is similar to the idea of the Yizhou clan. Shu people rule Shu, and Wu people rule Wu."
Liu Zhang frowned and refused unceremoniously.
"Yuantan, you should know the rules under Guzhi."
"Loneliness does not mean that the world is not allowed to exist, but that the existence of the world must be within control."
"This is the bottom line, the bottom line that cannot be touched!"
Gu Yong's eyes twitched and he felt a little panicked.
Liu Zhang's invisible anger was simply more terrifying than a sword and ax!
"King Qin calm down..."
Liu Zhang waved his hand, indicating to Gu Yong not to be nervous.
"Yuan Tan, this is not a matter of calming down the anger alone, but a matter of life and death for your Jiangdong family."
"You should have heard that the Yizhou clans united to resist Gu. What happened?"
"Nowadays, among the top wealthy families in Yizhou in the past, which one has not surrendered his power and worked hard under his command?"
"Only by giving up can you gain. If you don't know how to give up, not only will you not gain, but you will be destroyed!"
"I highly agree with what King Qin said!"
How dare Gu Yong say no!
Let’s not talk about the Jiangdong family for now, let’s just talk about the Gu family. Gu Yong did not dare to disobey Liu Zhang.
I just want to make a great contribution to Liu Zhang and let him occupy Jiangdong without any blood, but I also have to weigh the pros and cons and find a way that the Jiangdong family can accept.
It’s really difficult!
The first thing to bear the brunt is military power!
In Sun Quan's governance, everyone in the family could recruit soldiers and horses.
Even the enemy troops that were restrained during the war belong to whomever surrendered.
This provides great motivation and power to each family.
It is also extremely beneficial to Sun Quan.
Let the noble families recruit their own troops, and Sun Quan will not need to pay for food, weapons, wages, etc.
When there is a war, we gather together. When there is no war, everyone goes back to their homes.
We have been living together peacefully and developing together for more than ten years!
As the saying goes, it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality!
The Jiangdong family has enjoyed the benefits of power for so long, how can they easily give up their power?
If he heard that Liu Zhang wanted to remove military power and weaken the family's status and original rights in various ways, he would definitely help Sun Quan and the Qin army to the death!
After all, after the defeat, it was the Sun family that suffered first, and the family would suffer some losses at most.
As long as there is no threat of genocide, which family wouldn't want to give it a try?
"Yuan Tan, do you think it's almost impossible to capture Jiangdong without a single blow?"
Gu Yong happened to be in trouble, and Liu Zhang happened to ask a question, so he nodded.
"The King of Qin forgives me, but it is indeed true..."
Gu Yong didn't want to show off, talk big, let alone deceive Liu Zhang.
If you can't do it, you just can't do it, which is better than saying you can't do it.
"The King of Qin should know that Sun Quan's system of governing Jiangdong is far different from the King of Qin's system!"
Gu Yong sighed, pointing one hand upward and the other downward.
"To put it bluntly, it can be regarded as the heaven and earth!"
Looking at this helpless look, Liu Zhang couldn't help but laugh.
"Haha, Yuan Tan was joking, how could he be so exaggerated!"
This time Gu Yong was not modest and shook his head quickly.
"King Qin, he can only be more exaggerated than this!"
"Has King Qin forgotten what happened to Sun Ce in the past?"
"Sun Ce was cruel enough in the past, wasn't he? When he arrived in Jiangdong, he waved the butcher's knife wildly. What was the result?"
Speaking of this, Gu Yong felt that he might have said something too harshly, so he quickly explained.
"I have no other intentions. I am purely thinking about King Qin..."
Liu Zhang smiled and patted Gu Yong on the shoulder.
"Yuan Tan doesn't have to be so nervous, Gu is not a murderous person!"
"By the way, when it comes to Sun Ce, I really have a question. Was it really you who did it to him in the first place?"
Gu Yong pursed his lips and smiled, but instead of answering, he asked Liu Zhang.
"What does King Qin think?"
"solitary..."
Liu Zhang looked directly at Gu Yong, and seemed to have felt the answer from his half-smiling face.
In fact, Liu Zhang had his own understanding, and he even mentioned it to Sun Xiaomei at the beginning.
But no matter how clear Liu Zhang was, he was certainly not as clear as Gu Yong, the leader of the Wujun family.
Very willing, Gu Yong is also a participant!
Therefore, Gu Yong did not say anything clearly, so how could Liu Zhang draw a conclusion.
"Yuantan, there is no outsider here, it comes out of your mouth and into my ears!"
"Only heaven knows and earth knows, you know and I know! No need to be taboo, right?"
Even after hearing Liu Zhang's words, Gu Yong hesitated for a while.
After a long time, he spoke slowly.
However, there is still no outspokenness.
"Does King Qin know what happened when Sun Ce was assassinated?"
Liu Zhang nodded and shook his head.
"I know a little bit, but I don't know if it's true."
"I heard that Sun Ce liked hunting. His horse was very fast. After throwing away the protective sergeant, he was assassinated on the way to hunting."
Gu Yong nodded and confirmed the situation.
"What King Qin said is almost the truth."
"Sun Ce's death is indeed like this."
Liu Zhang was a little puzzled.
Gu Yong said it, but it seemed that he didn't say it, and it was still in the clouds.
"Yuantan, what does this mean?"
"The King of Qin is so wise and intelligent, don't you understand?"
Liu Zhang ignored it and shook his head in denial.
"not understand!"
