The big man is on the run

Chapter 68

"If Li Jue is pacified, the first thing to do is to rectify Guanzhong to consolidate the foundation of the country. Eight hundred miles away, Qinchuan is the foundation of the king's hegemony. The pre-Qin and modern Han are the foundation of the emperor. Now the people are scattered and the powerful are also Those who suffered heavy losses due to the war can collect idle fields and land in the Han Dynasty, so as to farm the fields, and in just one or two years, they can store grain and reorganize elite soldiers."

Jia Xu looked at Liu Yi who was hesitant to speak, and said directly: "Your Majesty, with the current situation, even if Li Jue is leveled, there will be no more wars in the short term. The people can't support it, even if it is barely And because, once defeated, there is no room for recovery.”

Jia Xu moved his finger to the right to the "L"-shaped corner of the Yellow River, and said loudly.

"Hanoi Zhangyang and Hedong Wangyi don't have the heart to stand on their own and separate themselves. As long as the central government is able to defeat Li Jue and regain control of Guanzhong, the two of them will naturally show their sincerity to the imperial court and resist Yuan Shao in Jizhou."

"Now Yuan Shao occupies Jizhou and Qingzhou, and Gongsun Zan has been beaten back to Youzhou. Seeing that he is dominating Hebei and annexing Ji, Qing, You, and the four prefectures, Hanoi Zhangyang and Hedong Wangyi must rely on the imperial court."

"When Guanzhong is stable and Hanoi and Hedong are attached, Your Majesty can start to pacify Han Sui and Ma Teng in Longxi."

Hearing this, Liu Yi couldn't help asking a question.

"Yuan Shao's army is strong, with [-] armors. Even if Guanzhong is settled, it is not enough to compete. I can understand this. But why do you want to pacify Longxi first? Can't you take Hanzhong? Mr. Wen He also said that Qin and Han used it because of it. Apart from Guanzhong, isn’t the other place where Chengdiye is located in Hanzhong?"

Liu Yi followed his own train of thought and continued: "If you can take Hanzhong, then you can get the land of abundance in Yizhou. If you get these two places, the world will be divided into half and half, and the west will return to the hands of the Han court."

Jia Xu only asked one sentence, leaving Liu Yi speechless.

"Has Your Majesty walked the plank road from Guanzhong to Hanzhong?"

Jia Xu's original intention was not to embarrass Liu Yi, since the topic came to this point, he had to explain it in detail.

"Your Majesty's original intention is good. If you go south to take Hanzhong, and then get Bashu, you will have the territory before the pre-Qin unification of the world."

"But this road really doesn't work."

"Your Majesty, what Mr. Jia said is true. If you go to Hanzhong now, you really miss it."

Wang Yue who was at the side suddenly interjected rashly, but Liu Yi was fine, and motioned Wang Yue to continue.

"These roads from Guanzhong to Hanzhong, I have traveled in the early years. Not to mention the Tangluo Road and Ziwu Road in the east. It is true that we can start from Chang'an, but let alone Zhang Lu. Even if there are no checkpoints for fighting in the mountains, one-third of the soldiers will have to be lost just to walk through these two roads, and it is too difficult to walk."

"Baoxie Road has a river that can transport supplies. It is relatively easy to walk, but it is also a place guarded by Zhang Lu's heavy troops. In that kind of place, there are high mountains and deep streams, and the cavalry cannot use it. As long as the defenders attack layer by layer, or even burn down the plank road, it is really true. There is no way at all, you can’t get in.”

"Qishan Road is easy to walk, but that road can't be taken from Guanzhong. You have to cross Longshan Mountain first, and then go to Jieting, Shangyu, and Qishan Mountains from Longxi to enter the territory of the Di people in Wudu County. Chen Cang Road Zhang Lu It is not fortified, but these two roads, when they come to the end, they can't help Hanzhong, because there is still Yangping Pass blocking the road to Hanzhong. Yangping Pass is the first-class pass in the world. Heaps of human lives can be conquered."

After listening to Wang Yue's words, Liu Yi knew that he had taken it for granted.

But he was still a little reconciled. Liu Yi always felt that it seemed more reliable to fight Hanzhong, Bashu, accumulate strength and then go east to sweep the world. After all, Qin Shihuang and Han Gaozu (Han Taizu Gaodi) were both That's what you did.

"Then how did you fight Hanzhong from Guanzhong?" Liu Yi asked unwillingly.

"When marching and fighting, the right time, place and people must be considered. It was a fluke in the pre-Qin period to attack Hanzhong. As for the present Han Dynasty, it is from Hanzhong to leave the pass, using the strategy of 'clearly repairing plank roads and secretly covering Chencang'."

"If it is today, I have to re-analyze it. Wang Zhonglang has already said about geography just now. As for Renhe, I would say something bad. The Five Dou Rice Sect has been running Hanzhong for so many years, and the people's hearts have long been out of the court's side."

"Zhang Lu claimed to be a teacher, he did not set officials up, and managed local government affairs with sacrifices. Zhang Lu also inherited the teachings of his ancestors, teaching the people to be honest and not deceitful, and making patients surrender themselves; forgive offenders three times. Additional punishment; if it is a minor offense, you should build a hundred steps to make atonement.

According to Zhang Lu's "Moon Order", slaughter and alcoholism are prohibited in spring and summer when all things grow.He also founded a charity house, put rice and meat in it, and provided passers-by with food for free.With such various administrations, people in Hanzhong are stable. In terms of harmony, the imperial court has no advantage whatsoever. "

The location, people and harmony are not on the court's side, not to mention the weather. The army mostly goes out in autumn and spring plowing, and in autumn and winter, as long as it rains and snows, or encounters bad weather, the plank road cannot march at all!
From this point of view, Hanzhong is easy to defend and difficult to attack, the people's heart is for Zhang Lu, and the period when troops are mostly sent out is inclement weather. Without an absolute advantage, it is really impossible to fight.

"Mr. Wen He, let's go on, what should we do if we don't fight Hanzhong and Longxi?"

Jia Xu nodded slightly and said: "Longxi is much easier to fight than Hanzhong, and Guanzhong and Longxi are integrated. Although the Weishui Road between Chencang and Sanguan cannot be marched, Longkou is a natural road for marching. It is a smooth road. This is a favorable location. Ma Teng and Han Sui seem to be in harmony with each other, and the local tyrants in Longxi and Liangzhou, the Qiang people and the Di people are complicated, and each has its own demands. This is the harmony of people. As for the weather, it is different from the endless Qinling Mountains. When it is fat, there is little rain in Longxi, and after passing Longkou, there are plateaus and plains, and a little rain and snow will not delay the galloping of the cavalry, this is the right time."

"According to Guanzhong's attack on Longxi, the right time, place, people and people are all on my side, while attacking Hanzhong is not on me. That's the reason."

Liu Yi looked at the counties in Longxi, and said: "If Longxi is pacified, we can get the horse farms of Juhan and Guzang, and with a large cavalry army, the principle of going east to the middle is invincible. Does that mean it?"

"Yes." Jia Xu nodded bluntly, "Besides, the commercial routes in the Western Regions can also be opened up. Taking Longxi Dingliangzhou is the three advantages. Obtaining military horses and strong soldiers can also accumulate wealth and enrich the treasury for military supplies."

Liu Yi took a deep breath, feeling uncontrollable ecstasy and excitement in his heart. The strategy Jia Xu said even related to the general trend of the world in the next ten years.

Zhuge Kongming has "Longzhong Dui", and today's discussion, this is Jia Wenhe's "Guanzhong Dui"!
