Li You, who was sitting next to Liu Bei, had a look of understanding on his face when he heard Chen Xi's proposal. It was obvious that what Chen Xi wanted to do was to let Liu Bei firmly control the military power. Maybe Liu Bei didn't even notice that the military power in his hands was Some are scattered.
"That's fine. Taishan soldiers have been with me through life and death. They have worked hard for several years, so we should give them a chance." Liu Bei nodded and said.
Speaking of which, Liu Bei not only treated the old people who followed him well, but also treated the soldiers who had followed him for many years. Originally, this kind of thing should be paid attention to, but Liu Bei passed it with almost no thought. It should be said that Liu Bei is a human being after all. No matter how great his vows are, he cannot be equal to a bowl of water.
"Xuan Degong can personally select a group of soldiers from the lower ranks, but when the time comes, try to choose orphans among the soldiers, or soldiers with brothers and sisters." Chen Xi pointed out certain details calmly. This era is not the cosmopolitan one of later generations. In the 21st century, the ancients who paid great attention to returning their fallen leaves to their roots would not easily leave their ancestral home for a long time.
"This is very easy." Liu Bei said with a smile, "There are many soldiers in Taishan, so it is not difficult to mobilize three to five thousand soldiers and low-level officers."
"That's good. Then I'll ask Xuande Gong to help with the selection." Chen Xi said calmly, "As for the Xuzhou family, give them a chance. Now we want stability and don't want Xuzhou to be messed up because of them. "
Li You shook his head slightly. He had the same goal as Chen Xi, but his advice to Liu Bei was exactly the opposite.
Indeed, judging from the current situation, it is indeed not suitable to annihilate the Xuzhou family. It can be said that the current Xuzhou family has been turned into a frightened bird by Tao Qian. As long as there is a slight disturbance, the Xuzhou family may unite to form a desperate counterattack, which may cause heavy damage to Xuzhou.
But the comparison leaves behind the hidden dangers that will arise in the Xuzhou family. On the contrary, Li You felt that it would be more realistic to smash the current rules and regulations in Xuzhou to pieces and then rebuild them. After all, the Xuzhou family's desperate counterattack would definitely not take away millions of people in Xuzhou. At most, it would collapse the Xuzhou market, displace the people, and cause hundreds of thousands of people to be displaced. Billions of dollars in money and food were lost.
This is indeed very serious, but it is not unbearable for Li You. In his opinion, what Chen Xi is best at is construction. Without the aristocratic family, there would be no shackles. Chen Xi can recover within a year at most, and from now on, the Xuzhou family will never be able to turn around within ten years.
One year of chaos is replaced by ten years of unstoppable development. Li You decided to push the Xuzhou family with little hesitation. Let them see the opportunity to sideline Liu Xuande, and then seek death themselves. This will not damage Liu Bei's benevolence.
"I really don't want to do more killings in the Xuzhou family. Without them, it will not be easy to stabilize the people of Xuzhou for a short time." Liu Bei also agreed with Chen Xi's statement. Liu Bei, who was born in a lower class, has really seen how a clan family solves the problem of the government. It is difficult to solve the problems of the common people.
Chen Xi nodded. Liu Bei and he had similar ideas. The Xuzhou Family could still use it at this time. Moreover, the damage caused by wiping it all out is too great, so there is no need to rush. For things like aristocratic families, it is better to slowly let them destroy themselves. There is no need to rush for success to avoid causing a backlash.
"But we can't just take advantage of the Xuzhou Family in vain. Can they take advantage of all the good things? It's not that easy. Do you really think that you are all indispensable to Xuzhou? ] A sneer flashed across Chen Xi's face.
"Mr. Xuzhou Family still needs to give us some thin noodles," Chen Xi looked at Liu Bei with a warm smile.
¡¾good! ] Li You instantly understood what Chen Xi meant.
Ninety percent of the officials in Qingzhou were scholars from poor families who were recruited by Liu Bei through recruitment orders when he was at his poorest. They were also scholars who Liu Bei hosted banquets and gave gifts out of the city. Likewise, these scholars were basically Liu Bei's die-hard loyalists. group.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? When millions of Yellow Turban soldiers came out of Qingzhou to feed in the wilds, this group of scholars would not surrender even if they did not have a single soldier. They were defeated by die-hards who would live and die with the land under their rule.
It can be said that if those people were brought to Xuzhou, they would definitely carry out Liu Bei's orders to the letter. It would be difficult for them to be persuaded by the Xuzhou family. After the officials of the Xuzhou family were transferred to Qingzhou, they lost the support of the local family. Moreover, with Taishan's crowd watching behind him, it was impossible for him to do anything out of the ordinary.
In addition, Liu Bei's die-hard faction came to Xuzhou to occupy Xuzhou official positions, which in itself suppressed the Xuzhou family. This basically restricted the development of the local Xuzhou family. At that time, Liu Bei had military power, as long as the Xuzhou family was not stupid. Never dare to fight back, neither political power nor military power is in hand, and no one is willing to die with just a few private soldiers.
"This method is very good." Liu Bei's mind was not slow and he quickly reacted, "But it is probably not easy for the Xuzhou family to agree to this."
"It's not up to them to agree or disagree, it's up to us. The things Jia Wenhe has in hand are enough for them to make the right choice, and we have already said that we will let go of the past, and the other party must also pay the price of letting us go. The family will always know what's wrong." Li You said with sigh.
"Zichuan's proposal is very reasonable, and in this way, the new groups that are emerging in Qingzhou can be transferred to Xuzhou, and this new group of forces can compete with the weakened Xuzhou mainland." Li You remembered that some time ago The reported Qingzhou incident was more satisfactory to Chen Xi's proposal. Instead of allowing internal conflicts to arise, it would be better to transfer the internal conflicts of the die-hard faction to the Xuzhou family. In this way, even if there is a drain, it will also promote the overall situation.
"Well, that's what it means, and this is also a test. As a result, the local government of a big family will completely bring the local area into the power of the family within three or five generations. They only know the family but not the Han Dynasty. This kind of thing must be curbed. "Okay, let's see the effect first," Chen Xi said with a sigh.
To be honest, Chen Xi is not optimistic that the Qingzhou officials will continue to compete with the Xuzhou family after they arrive in Xuzhou. The most likely situation is that with the impact one after another, this group of officials and the Xuzhou family will finally reach a balance, but they can After gaining so much time, even if the Xuzhou family reacts, it will be difficult for them to threaten Xuzhou again.
It is difficult for rootless officials to defeat local forces unless they are extremely talented. This has happened too many times in history. This is why Chen Xi wants to establish absolute military power first, and at least give these people a The solid backing allows them to fight against the local forces in Xuzhou without any scruples to fight for everything they deserve.
