Chapter 538 Persuade Liu Yi
Wei Feng laughed and laughed here, and Princess Xiping and Cui Ying were both coaxed to laugh, but Liu Yu opened his face calmly and returned to the Taiwei Mansion with his confidants. As for the yellow gate that summoned him into the palace, he ignored him. Liu Yu had no intention of using Sima Dewenxu to have a snake.
Liu Yu was at the top of the head, first briefly introduced the conversation with Wei Feng, and then asked: "You all saw it today. The court is in danger and the alliance with Yao Xing will be useless. Our Northern Army must independently resist the Ming army. How should we deal with it?"
Tan Daoji said angrily: "It's all the short-sighted people of Liu Yi and Zhuge Changmin. The enemy is facing a great enemy. Instead of unity, they will split and seize power. Otherwise, even if our Northern Army is weak, why should we be afraid of the Ming army?"
No one present realized that they had unconsciously changed the title of Wei Feng's army to the Ming army, which shows that they subconsciously recognized the legitimacy of the Ming country and were a powerful tyrant with stronger strength than the court!
Chen Linzi took Tan Daoji's words and waved his hand and said, "What's the use of complaining? Since the Wei surname has been called the King of Ming and General, you might as well call him king. He simply abolished the emperor and established a country, so that he can concentrate his efforts to deal with the Wei surname. Although he asserted that the chaos in Guanzhong was in chaos, who knows what the facts are? Maybe Yao Xing, Tuoba Lie and Liu Bobo saw through his tricks and united to avoid turmoil?"
Liu Muzhi shook his head and said, "General Chen, it is not appropriate for generals to be king at this time. First of all, even if he is king, he is not as powerful as the Ming king. Where can the general capture the enemy monarch to sacrifice to heaven? What's more, he will completely abandon the court. In any case, the court is the name of the great righteousness. Especially when our Northern Army is currently weak, we need to hold the court firmly in our hands. I would like to ask more questions, do you have any intention of surrendering to the Ming king?"
Liu Yu took it and said, "Sir, you are right. When the enemy is in front of you, you must be united. If someone wants to defect to the King of Ming, I will not stop you. You can leave with your will!"
Tan Daoji took the lead in expressing his opinion: "The general will receive the kindness of the general who knows his favor, and he will not be able to repay him. He can only follow the general in this life!"
Chen Linzi also said, "How can you surrender because of the enemy's situation? If someone wants to leave, the general will not stop him. But I, Chen Linzi, would like to deal with the Wei surnamed to the end. Even if I am defeated and killed, why fear is there?"
In fact, Xie Hui was a little shaken. He was a scholar and a scholar. The starting point of everything was to take the interests of the clan first. He would not be as passionate as the generals such as Chen Linzi and Tan Daoji. He was no longer optimistic about the court. However, in the current situation, he could not say anything if he said goodbye or left, unless he didn't want any shame. Liu Yu and Liu Muzhi cooperated with each other and retreated to advance. They forced everyone to retreat to death!
Xie Hui felt helpless, but he could only bow down: "Hui was promoted by the general since he was a child. How can he leave when the general is in critical condition? Hui is willing to advance and retreat with the general!"
Regardless of whether the other generals were sincere or not, they could only express their support for Liu Yu.
"Okay!" Liu Yurui glanced at him and shouted loudly: "Liu remembers your kindness and kindness in his heart. He will not let you down in the future. The most urgent task is to send envoys to Yao Xing, Tuoba Qu and Liu Bobo to declare the righteousness and make some concessions appropriately!
Secondly, the King of Ming made it clear that the general attacked the north of the Yangtze River. According to what he saw, it was not a false statement. The most important defense of Jiangbei was Yuzhou. If Shouchun and Qiao were trapped in the hands of the Ming army, Liyang, Guangling and Xiapi might fall in succession. In Jieshi, he sent troops from Hebei and attacked them on both sides. Qingyan was in danger. I wonder what good strategies do you have to solve them?"
Liu Muzhi stood up and walked towards a mountain and river topographic map placed in the center of the hall, and the rest of the people surrounded him.
Liu Muzhi stretched out his hand and pointed: "The King of Ming returned to Jiangling and would not rush to send troops. First, observe the situation in Guanzhong. If there is chaos in Guanzhong, he will definitely attack Guanzhong first. If Guanzhong has no choice but to take advantage of it, he will move to Nanyang in late autumn and early winter. As he said, he will fight with our Northern Prefecture Army and put pressure on Guanzhong. This is the key.
Please see, Qiao is located only eight hundred miles northeast of Nanyang. There is a flat horse and no danger to defend. The Ming King will definitely attack Qiao directly from Nanyang. The rain in winter is scarce, which is conducive to the assault of his cavalry. If Qiao is lost, you can attack Hulao and Puyang to the north, and Shouchun to the south. Therefore, our army must stop the momentum of the Ming army in Qiao. At the same time, in order to crush the Ming King's intention to provoke a conspiracy of civil strife in Guanzhong, on the one hand, you need to ask Liu Bobo, Yao Xing and Tuoba Lie to go out to the pass to cooperate with our Northern Prefecture Army to attack the Ming army. How can the Ming army stop them? On the other hand, you need to fight quickly and decide quickly. If you are too late, you may be afraid that civil strife will arise!
Unfortunately, the current governor of Yuzhou is Liu Fan, Liu Yi’s younger brother. Liu Fan has limited strength and is not in the same position as you, so you will not be able to resist the Ming army independently. If the general’s main force enters Yuzhou, it may cause misunderstandings!”
All the generals felt deeply, and Tan Daoji snorted coldly: "Maybe before the Ming army attacked Qiao, Liu Fan will surrender the Ming King in Yuzhou!"
Liu Yu took a deep breath and gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, if Yuzhou surrenders without fighting, it will definitely affect Liu Yi. Liu Yi has already hesitated. If he surrenders again, our Northern Palace Army may collapse! I will never allow him to surrender, and we should go to Shitou City to make a statement of justice!"
"General, no!" Xie Hui quickly dissuaded: "What if Liu Yi takes you down as the first Ming King? At an extraordinary moment, you should not be in danger!"
Liu Muzhi also advised: "Mu Zhi will take a trip on behalf of the general. Even if he can't persuade Liu Yi, he will not harm Muzhi."
Liu Yu pondered for a moment and nodded, "I'm sorry, please tell Xile, if he joins hands with me, I recommend him as the Secretary of the Shangshu, Prime Minister. By the way, although it is unlikely, you must be careful of the King Ming's deception, taking advantage of Liyang, Gushu, and the riverside, and the cavalry of our Northern Palace Army is always on standby. Whenever there is a danger, go to help immediately!"
"Mu Zhi understands!" Liu Muzhi bowed and left quickly.
Liu Muzhi left the Taiwei Mansion and issued orders in the name of Liu Yu, then rode his horse towards Shitou City. Liu Yi was still standing on the top of the city and looking at the river. The 50,000 Hu cavalry of the Ming army had left Shitou City and gradually gathered downstream. The huge fleet was also making the final preparations before starting the journey.
Liu Muzhi didn't speak, but stood beside Liu Yi and looked at the river with a bit of a fairy-like charm.
In terms of patience, Liu Yi is far inferior to Liu Muzhi, and he still has his worries. Not long after, he felt a little upset and couldn't help but say coldly: "Sir, I am here, but I persuade Yi to surrender the Ming King, but to abandon his past grudges with the Taiwei and work together to fight against the enemy?"
"Not bad!" Liu Muzhi did not deny it at all.
Liu Yi said again: "Why didn't the Taiwei come? Could it be that he is afraid of Yu Yi?"
Liu Muzhi said lightly: "Who is the general? Xile should be careful to know his reputation. The general had originally planned to persuade him personally, but Muzhi and the generals refused to let him go. After all, the general is in the safety of the Northern Army, how can he be in danger at a slightest risk?"
Liu Yi's expression calmed down a little, and he pondered: "The Ming army is powerful, and the Ming king is so talented. I will go against him, or even die, or die in the family. Since this is the case, what's wrong with surrendering the Ming king?"
Liu Muzhi pointed down: "Xile, look at this big river, surging eastward for millions of years. A person's life is just a drop in the ocean. But how can a person last forever? It is spirit and integrity. If he surrendered due to the enemy's power, why did he resist Huan Xuan? Why did our Northern Army fight against Fu Jian's 820,000 army?"
"This..." Liu Yi was speechless for a moment.
Liu Muzhi's face turned cold and then said, "Especially, others can surrender, but you cannot surrender. If you surrender, you must go to the General of Guard. This General of Guard is deeply involved. Since you take it, you should bear the consequences. If you are forced to go to the General of Guard by the Ming King, you will become a joke for the ages, and your descendants will be ashamed of this in the future!
What's more, even if you surrender the Ming King without caring about the ridicule of the world, the Ming King will definitely take all the soldiers in your hands and arrange for you to take care of your old age. Mu Zhi understands that you have ambitions. Could it be that you are willing to do nothing until you die of old age?"
Liu Yi was slightly shocked, but he still kept his face unchanged: "The Ming King took over the Hu cavalry, and the general Hu was still led by the army. As far as the Helan tribe He Hu, the slang man Xian Enzhuo, how could he see that the military power of Yi must be abducted Yi?"
Liu Muzhi smiled coldly: "Since ancient times, the disaster has not been outside but inside. The Ming King is very afraid of the generals of our Northern Palace. How could you allow you to lead the army? But the Hu generals are different. First, they are simple-minded and surrender to the strong, and second, the country has been destroyed. What can I do if I don't give up on my life for the Ming King?
Xile, if you surrender to the Ming King, the most unworst thing is the general. The general's wife, daughter and sister have surrendered to the Ming King. If the general goes to Jiangling, he will definitely have high officials and high titles. If he fights with the Ming army, he will have only one or two chances of victory. But why don't the general surrender? People cannot only seek profits when they live, but also have good fortune. Life is only a few decades. Even if they are defeated and die, they will be better than relying on others and living a life of silence!
The general would rather be broken than to be broken!"
Liu Muzhi was making a sound, looking at death as if he was ready to die. Liu Yi was shocked and his boundless shame surged into his heart, so he asked, "If I join forces with the Taiwei, will the Taiwei let go of his grudges?"
Liu Muzhi smiled and said, "The general is a man who has accomplished great things. How can he stick to the minor details? The division between you and the general is the internal affairs of the Northern Army. If you close the door, you can fight no matter how you fight, but the premise is to be consistent with the outside world. Xile, the general has met you since childhood, so how can he be resentful to you? The general is willing to record the affairs of the Shangshu and the Prime Minister in exchange for this mere place!"
Then, Liu Muzhi briefly said that Wei Feng would attack Qiao.
"Oh?" Liu Yi said with emotion: "Yes, it's hard to defend Yuzhou just because Liu Fan was unable to defend him. Na Yi immediately wrote a letter and gave Qiao to the Taiwei to the garrison. He also asked the Taiwei to tell him that since he had the will to fight to the death, Yi would accompany him. Before our Northern Palace Army could not escape the crisis, I would like to follow the Taiwei's leader!"
"Okay!" Liu Muzhi praised: "Xile has great righteousness and should keep his reputation forever. Muzhi is not willing to do this old bone, and he vows to deal with the Ming King!"
