Han Shizu

Chapter 111
It was already dark when we left the Waiting for Virtue Hall, Liu Chengyou was half a body behind to show respect, the two brothers walked silently on the street, heading towards the state government office.Liu Chengxun folded his hands behind his back, frowned, and glanced at Liu Chengyou, hesitant and hesitant.

"Erlang, is this subject to be discussed?" After pondering for a long time, Liu Chengxun finally spoke.

Liu Chengyou took Liu Chengxun to see Zhao Yanshou, and naturally confessed his thoughts and plans, and hoped to get his support.But obviously, his big brother didn't have confidence in his plan.

Liu Chengyou had already told Liu Chengxun about the purpose of this plan and his considerations before and after, but seeing that he still looked hesitant, Liu Chengyou was not surprised. As far as China is concerned, it is a sharp sword that hangs above the head and can fall at any time. When the country is first established, Hebei must be established. However, if you want to make the country peaceful and the northern Xinjiang long-term, you must take back Youyan and rebuild the northern line of defense. Otherwise, you must Like Shi Jin, he will be threatened by his harassment for a long time.”

Liu Chengyou and Liu Chengxun have already talked about similar statements, but the same rhetoric has different feelings when repeated.A little worry appeared on Liu Chengxun's expression.

"Is this move really beneficial to Hebei Yubei?" Liu Chengxun asked after thinking about it.

Liu Chengyou didn't know if his eldest brother really didn't understand, or he was pretending to be confused. Looking at him, he said in a low voice: "For the sake of the family, the country, and the livelihood of the people, if it is not forced by the national conditions, I will send the army to the north to drive Kill the Hulu and revive Youyan."

Liu Chengyou's words are a bit of a moral kidnapping.Obviously, it was really useful to Liu Chengxun, so he stopped and looked at Liu Chengyou, only to see excitement and hope shining on the serious face of his family Erlang.

Taking a deep breath, he pointed to the Waiting Hall not far away: "But, is Zhao Yanshou trustworthy?"

Liu Chengyou shook his head, his eyes became deep at this moment, and he said leisurely: "Zhao Yanshou, I'm afraid he wants to make a comeback with our support. Perhaps, when this person agreed to my proposal, he still had a lot of thoughts in his heart." Secretly laughing, this kid actually plans to use him!"

Listening to Liu Chengyou's self-deprecating tone, Liu Chengxun frowned: "Since that's the case, why did you choose Zhao Yanshou? Even if you intend to use martial arts in Youzhou, you can just send a general to go north. How can you give soldiers and horses to Zhao Yanshou?"

After all, Liu Chengxun still didn't believe in Zhao Yanshou, but Liu Chengyou had already brought him into his rhythm when speaking.

"Nowadays, no one can replace Zhao Yanshou. Except for him, no one can subdue those Yan soldiers. We can't support him with Jin soldiers, can we?" Liu Chengyou said: "As for whether this person is trustworthy, it still depends Look at the development of the situation, look at the strength. I dare not say in the future, at least for now, this person is credible, or can be used."

Hearing this, Liu Chengxun fell silent, and fell into deep thought again, after a while: "This matter is so important that you and I cannot decide, or should we report it to my father, let him discuss with the court officials, and then make a decision?"

It was reported to the imperial court, and after that, the day lily was probably cold.What's more, it would take a while to wait for the court to make a decision, and the final result might not be as good as Liu Chengyou intended.

While thinking about it, Liu Chengyou said: "In the short period of time, it may be the time when Khitan's control over Youyan will be the weakest. Don't miss this opportunity, time will never come again!"

His brows furrowed even deeper, and Liu Chengxun asked again: "Is there really a chance? Can Zhao Yanshou really win Youzhou?"

Liu Chengxun's questions were too many, and it was because of the many questions that it showed that he was really thinking about this plan.

My eldest brother is obviously not familiar with Youyan's situation when he first came here. Since Liu Chengyou had the idea of ​​asking him for endorsement, he naturally explained tirelessly: "I have discussed carefully with Zhu Wenwu many times, and the conclusions I have come to are basically It is unanimous that there must be internal struggles in Khitan. If not, let alone Zhao Yanshou, our army will go northward regardless of everything, and it will be difficult to win. As for Zhao Yanshou's ultimate success, I can't guarantee it. Already!"

As he said that, Liu Chengyou sighed: "It is up to man to plan things, but it is up to God to make things happen! Let's just try it out, no matter how bad the result is, how bad can it go? But as long as it succeeds, in the future when you recapture Youji, you will definitely reduce the number of people who have lost your life." Loss and Resistance!"

Liu Chengxun nodded subconsciously, his expression relaxed: "Let me think about it again."

"I can't rush this matter. It all depends on Youzhou and Yeluruan's movements! Big brother, you can think about it!" Liu Chengyou said softly: "I'm looking around today. I think big brother has worked hard. I'd better go back and have a good rest for a while. Bar"

It was not a very long distance to go back to the state office, and the two brothers had to walk for a long time.In front of the yamen, seeing the back of his elder brother slowly climbing up the stairs, the corner of Liu Chengyou's mouth twitched slightly.

To plan for the future, Liu Chengyou tried his best to promote the proposal of Youyan.Although Liu Zhiyuan entrusted him with the power to control the Hebei armies, it is not easy to abuse it.Cooperating with Zhao Yanshou and returning Yan Bing to him, these things are really not something that Liu Chengyou can decide with a single word.Even if he insists on going his own way, he will kill first and play later, there will be troubles later, and Liu Zhiyuan will probably be dissatisfied.

Wei Renpu reminded Liu Chengyou that such a major event must be explained to the emperor.Tao Gu also carefully persuaded him that if he could not do something that violated the taboo, he should try his best not to do it.

Liu Chengyou is not a person who does not listen to advice, he has been thinking about how to solve this problem, and Liu Chengxun's arrival immediately made him think.If the two of them push forward this matter together, then the future troubles will be much smaller. Even if there are any unexpected changes, he, the big brother, will share the pressure and bear the consequences.

This is also the reason why Liu Chengyou was treated so hospitablely and patiently explained.There is no need to go back and forth for hundreds of miles to receive him in person, even if it is his own brother.

Looking at the current situation, although Liu Chengxun hesitated in his heart, in his words, Liu Chengyou could already feel that his brother was tempted.

In fact, in addition to Liu Chengyou's "border defense strategy" rhetoric, it also has a bit of temptation.If Youyan's proposal can come to fruition and produce results, it will definitely be a great achievement.

Since the start of the strategy to enter the Central Plains, Liu Chengyou has made great achievements in leading troops south and east, especially the battle of Luancheng, which can be boasted for a lifetime.And his elder brother, who had been staying in Jinyang before, although he had the merits of defending the rear, how could he have any merits on the battlefield.

Liu Chengxun is a gentleman, which is good, but it does not mean that he has no desires or desires.Especially, as Liu Zhiyuan's eldest son, the eldest prince of the new dynasty.

Now Liu Chengxun is tempted.
