Chapter 106
When Zhao Yun and others heard Liu Bin say this, they couldn't help but look at each other, then clasped their fists and said, "I'm the one who listened to the lord's instructions!" Liu Bin said with a smile: "It's not that serious! In fact, I didn't want to let Gongsun Du and the others leave at the beginning! You know, this guy has the greatest damage to my Youzhou. My nature is to repay kindness and take revenge with revenge. I will never delay it! But the situation later forced me to think about it. If I really wipe out Gongshen now.
Is Sun Du and the others good or bad for our Youzhou? Yes, with our current strength and the combat effectiveness shown by Gongsun Du and the others, it is no problem for us to annihilate them in Youzhou! But if we really destroy Gongsun Du and the others now, then problems will come one after another!" Speaking of this, Liu Bin deliberately paused, looked at Zhao Yun and the others, and they began to frown and think! Obviously, they also felt a little bit of the problem!
Liu Bin smiled slightly and continued, "We then took the opportunity to attack Dong Zhuo and occupied the entire Bingzhou. When the rebels in the north attacked Youzhou, they took the opportunity to turn the defense into attack, occupied western Liaoning, Xianbei and Wuheng, and occupied the northern counties and occupied most of the grasslands in the south of the desert on the grassland. It can be said that we have expanded our territory for thousands of miles this time! If we defeat Gongsun Du and his group now, then the Liaodong region and even the territory of Goguryeo will be taken down by us, and the entire Northeast region will be ours! Together, these places have their cheeks that are at least five times more than the Youzhou region we originally occupied! But the problem comes! Can we really completely occupy such a large place?"
Liu Bin said this. After looking at Zhao Yun and the others, their expressions changed, and they obviously knew the seriousness of the problem! Liu Bin continued: "It's okay to say that the counties occupied by Gongsun Zan in western Liaoning are also in Youzhou. After all, this is also the Youzhou area, which is the jurisdiction of the Youzhou governor. With my prestige in Youzhou, the people of Youzhou have already returned to me, so it is naturally no problem! Bingzhou is not a problem! Bingzhou is now without a leader, Ding Yuan is dead, and the military power of Bingzhou has almost been lost after several wars, and there is no power of resistance. As the King of Jin, my fief is in Bingzhou. Speaking of which, I am also the legitimate master of Bingzhou. Now the world is in chaos, and the court
The majesty is declining. Now that I have entered Bingzhou, I believe that those people in Bingzhou will not have much resistance! As for the grassland area, it is not a problem. Wu Heng needs to say that I have been intimidated by them over the years. In addition, their strength is now damaged, so we must take over here. I don’t have the courage to fight us! The Xianbei tribes are even more unworthy! The Xianbei tribes have been beaten by us and have been crippled. They have no idea how much troops they have. They have suffered heavy losses and can no longer occupy such a large area. And now they have retreated to the Mobei region, which is just in a state of emptiness! So there will be no resistance here!"
After analyzing these areas, Liu Bin sighed and said, "Although there will be no big resistance in these areas, these areas are large after all, and it will take a lot of energy to really master and digest these areas! Not only do we have to station a considerable number of troops, but we also have to send a large number of internal personnel to implement our Youzhou policy in these areas! At the same time, because these areas are relatively poor and backward, we have to invest a lot of materials and money to rebuild! If this was the same as before, it was relatively calm and morale, then
No problem, with the strength of Youzhou, we will take over step by step, and we will definitely be able to digest these places in a short period of time! But we have just experienced several wars and the Youzhou headquarters has been destroyed by the rebels. Our own strength has also suffered a lot of losses, and we need rest and restoration when we restore construction, we can divide our energy and occupy these areas, which has reached our limit! If we still have to go to Liaodong and fight with Gongsun Du at this time, what will happen? Can we bear this consequence?"
Zhao Yun and others couldn't help but be speechless when they heard Liu Bin's question. They were all military generals, commanding and leading troops to fight, siege cities and plundering land, and they really couldn't manage the local area, nor did they think about governing the local area! Besides, Youzhou was originally a policy of separation of military and political affairs. They were only responsible for leading troops to fight, so they never thought about how to deal with government affairs! They thought about what situation to consider in the world! This was not their strength! Now that Liu Bin is surrounding him, they naturally don't know how to answer!
I don’t know, but Liu Bin is very clear about this! It is the time when and military, they are interdependent and mutually promoting each other! Military cannot be separated from politics, and politics cannot be separated from military! Simple politics cannot achieve the world. Simple military will only destroy and not build. Even if it can achieve the world, it will soon disappear! The five thousand years of history of China has proved this! Liu Bin, who is familiar with history and has experienced the information explosion in modern society, naturally knows it very well!
Liu Bin shook his head and said, "Besides, Gongsun Du has been in Liaodong for so long, which is much longer than I have been in Youzhou. Although his governance is a bit cruel, it cannot be denied that his influence on the Liaodong region and even the entire Northeast region is unmatched! The Northeast region has a large number of people, a complex terrain, and many forces are intertwined. If we enter the Liaodong region now, with our strength, even if we can defeat Gongsun Du, our own strength will be lost, and it will be difficult to control the complex situation in the Northeast! Our large amount of energy will be affected by the Northeast region. At that time, other
We can't take into account the areas we occupy this time! The areas we occupy this time are likely to be lost again! You know that we are now thorns in the side of the princes. If we see that we are in an unfavorable situation, those of them will definitely be the ones who take the blame! In that case, except for the Youzhou area that we have completely controlled, the others will be occupied by the enemy, and our strength will be greatly limited, which is too unpaid! So it's better to let Gongsun Du off for the time being, we take the opportunity to recuperate and restore our strength, and at the same time digest those occupied areas! Don't give our opponents any opportunity to take advantage of!"
After hearing this, Zhao Yun and others couldn't help but nod! They also understood Liu Bin's good intentions. This was a decision that they had to make in the overall situation! They also agreed to do so, but they were still a little unwilling to let Gongsun Du go! Zhao Yun said, "We understand the good intentions of senior brother! We also agreed to the decision of senior brother! But we were really unwilling to let Gongsun Du go like this and let the culprit who invaded our Youzhou and destroyed our Youzhou! We have never suffered such a big loss before! In the past, whether it was the alien races such as Xianbei Wuheng or the Yellow Turban thieves, they did not get any benefits in our Youzhou, nor did they do it.
How much loss did we cause! On the contrary, they have also received great losses and received rapid revenge from us! This has also created the reputation of our Youzhou that is invincible! It has created the reputation of our Youzhou army that is invincible! But now that Gongsun Du has invaded our Youzhou, although his strength has been greatly damaged, he finally returned to Liaodong in disgrace, which is a huge loss to our reputation! It is really cheap for us to let him go! "As soon as Zhao Yun finished speaking, Dian Wei and Huang Zhong nodded repeatedly, and they thought so! Although they understood Liu Bin's good intentions in doing this and knew that the current situation forced them to do so, they were still very unwilling to let Gongsun Du go!
After hearing Zhao Yun's words, Liu Bin couldn't help laughing! After a while, he said, "I am very pleased that you can fight to maintain the reputation of the Youzhou Army! Because this shows that the Youzhou Army already has military spirit and has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people! I have always believed that only with its own military spirit can a truly strong army be able to truly be invincible and invincible! With military spirit, the Youzhou Army is the real number one army in the world! However, military often has to serve politics. For the future situation, we can only temporarily tolerate and put away our reputation! Raise our energy and restore our strength. In this way, our Youzhou Army can be powerful in the world for a long time and truly pass on through the ages!"
Speaking of this, Liu Bin squinted his eyes. Although his voice was a little low, he still said sharply: "Of course, the reputation of the Youzhou Army is inviolable. Anyone who infringes on our interests must accept our crazy revenge! We let Gongsun Du go for the time being because we have to take the overall situation into consideration and the overall interests of equity! But this does not mean that we really let Gongsun Du go! Although Gongsun Du can now withdraw to Liaodong and return to his own territory, you don't
If things are done, just let it go! After Gongsun Du returns, he is destined to be unable to live in peace! I will not give him any chance! Our Youzhou is now losing strength and needs to rest for a while, but I will not give our opponents time to regain their energy and restore their strength! After Gongsun Du returns, he will definitely be busy suppressing civil strife and being overwhelmed! He should not say that he can restore his strength, it would be good that he can preserve his current strength and not suffer any major losses!"
