Chapter 224 Emperor Wu of Song Dynasty Liu Yu

Liu Yu's ability is not bad. After Liu Hua's guidance, he immediately figured out the key.

"So..." Liu Yu's eyes lit up and he said solemnly: "We may be able to use the power of the princes to capture the eight passes of Luoyang and occupy all the four counties of Sizhou."

Liu Yu was worthy of being the first emperor of the Southern Dynasties. He looked at the problem from a very comprehensive perspective. Liu Hua just gave a brief outline. He had already guessed Liu Hua's purpose through a glimpse of the leopard in the tube.

That's right, Liu Hua's biggest purpose in forming the coalition was to use the power of the princes to capture Sizhou, so that the two forces of Han and Shu could completely join forces.

Although Han and Shu are both under the influence of the Liu family, they are not adjacent to each other. The main sphere of influence of the Liu family is in the two states of Youji and Hebei, and their future development direction is also in the north. In this way, Shu falls into the awkward position of an enclave, especially It was Liu Yu who conquered Shu alone. If Liu Hua wants to convince Liu Yu and jointly expand the territory in the future, Liu Hua must occupy Guanzhong and merge the two places into one.

Once the coalition forces destroy the Qin State, Guanzhong will naturally become an unclaimed land, and due to various issues such as geography and hatred, it is impossible for other princes to get an inch of land in Guanzhong.

Regarding his brother's ambition, Liu Yu said he had mixed feelings, because he also has ambitions, and who doesn't want to compete for this hegemony?
Liu Hua seemed to understand what Liu Yu was thinking, and then took out his trump card, a map.

Show Liu Yu the world map, not only because Liu Yu is Liu Hua's younger brother, but also because Liu Yu's current ambitions are not big enough, and Liu Yu's ability is indeed the best in history, and Liu Hua does not want brothers to kill each other.

Liu Yu was a little confused when he saw this map.

Liu Hua didn't waste any time. He handed the map to Liu Yu and said, "Open it and see for yourself."

Liu Yu naturally believed that his brother would not harm him, so he began to look through the picture.

What Liu Hua gave was naturally a map of the world. On this vast map, Liu Yu couldn't help but feel a bit stunned when he looked at the Shu land he currently occupied. It was not even the size of a fingernail.

"The Central Plains is too small to accommodate you and me, and it cannot accommodate any king, but the world is very big. In the name of China, you and I can coexist. Are you interested in conquering the world with me?"

Liu Hua looked at Liu Yu with a slightly fiery gaze, as if he was looking at a rare treasure.

The talent of the monarch: swallowing thousands of miles with anger: swallowing thousands of miles with anger like a tiger.Leading his generals forward with his own strong courage, pointing out the current path of his generals and what he is good at subconsciously, and integrating the paths they have taken before and what they are good at, Liu Yu can integrate the legion talents of all the generals under his command. Effect.

Talent of the whole army: Queyue Polu: When fighting barbarians and aliens, all attributes of the whole army will be increased by [-]%, and the organization ability of the whole army will be strengthened, the will resistance of the legion will be strengthened, the internal energy recovery speed of the whole army will be increased, and the enemy's attack power will be weakened. , attracting enemy attacks.

Exclusive Legion: Beifu Army: Military Soul: Legion Power Control and Power Integration.Military soul ability: Polu.

The effect of Liu Yu's monarch talent ability is vaguely described, but this may be the reason why Liu Yu has famous generals such as Wang Zhene and Tan Daoji under his command. Moreover, Liu Yu can use the legion talent effects of all generals under his command, which is no better than Zhuge Liang who can use friendly talents. poor ability.

Perhaps this can also explain the internal strife between the civil and military forces of the Jin Dynasty who stayed in Chang'an in Liu Yu's later period. Shen Tianzi killed Wang to suppress the evil, Wang Xiu killed Shen Tianzi, and Liu Yizhen killed Wang Xiu again.

When Liu Yu received the news, he was horrified and ordered Zhu Lingshi to guard Chang'an and ordered Liu Yizhen to return as soon as possible.Liu Yizhen and his soldiers plundered a large amount of treasures and beautiful women, and returned south in their carriages, where they were pursued by the Xia army.Zhu Lingshi was killed in battle, and Liu Yizhen escaped alone.Later, although Chang'an was gained and lost, many good generals and soldiers were lost. As a result, Liu Yu failed to make the Northern Expedition because Liu Yu's combat power was greatly lost.

Liu Yu was poor since he was a child, and later joined the Beifu Army as a general, and gradually grew into the third-generation general of the Beifu Army.After the three-day Beifu Army was destroyed, Liu Yu led the Beifu Army to achieve military spirit!
If the three-talented Beifu Army represents hatred towards the Hu people, then the military spirit of the Beifu Army is the hope of defeating the Hu people and regaining the Central Plains!

In terms of personal force, Liu Yu is even more fierce. "He is often strong and sharp, takes the lead for his soldiers, and often defeats the enemy in every battle."With only a few dozen men, he dared to fight against thousands of Sun En's men. Even though the people around him were almost dead, he still "had a fierce fighting spirit, wielding a long sword in his hand, and killed many people."It is also one of the best among monarchs.

Liu Yu's military skills are enough to rank among the top three emperors in history, only behind Zhu Yuanzhang and Li Shimin.

Liu Yu was undefeated in his life, and he turned defeat into victory many times when he was outnumbered. He also remotely controlled the headquarters to destroy the Qiaoshu regime. Like Zhuge Liang, he anticipated the enemy and then gave him a clever plan. He arrived at the designated place and acted according to the plan.

Liu Yu was a strategist who dared to innovate in tactics. He could not only give full play to his own advantages, but also cleverly deploy his formations. He used his advantages to make up for his shortcomings, fully demonstrating his outstanding military talents.His military thoughts enriched the treasure house of ancient Chinese military thoughts.

In terms of combat guidance, Liu Yu advocated grasping the overall situation, anticipating the enemy's victory, using surprise and deception, and avoiding the real and attacking the weak.It is required to have a thorough understanding of the enemy's situation before the war. The deployment of troops and the time to start the war must be carefully considered and decisions made carefully.

Pay attention to choosing the direction of the main attack and try to avoid being attacked from the front and rear; emphasize multiple sieges and oppose the sudden advance of a single army; when attacking a strong enemy, it is advisable to first defend and strengthen your strength, and wait for an opportunity to attack when the enemy's food is exhausted and the army is exhausted; when the enemy is in retreat, pursue it without any means Give up and strive for total annihilation.

Pay attention to winning by deception, such as suppressing flags and drums and pretending to be weak; setting up many flags and drums to show off the military strength; sending fake messages to confuse the public; using surrender ministers to persuade surrender to undermine the enemy's military morale.He is good at making wise use of the weather and geographical conditions, such as riding the wind to set fire, flooding the city with water, and making roundabout ambushes.

Liu Yu was not only good at strategic decision-making and battle command, but also good at tactical innovation; not only good at commanding infantry and navy operations, but also good at commanding coordinated operations of various arms.

Among them, the defeat of the Northern Wei Jingqi with the "Queyue Formation" is a typical example of Liu Yu's command of various arms to coordinate operations.He absorbed the shortcomings of early formations, boldly used the navy in the formation, and used the advantages of the navy to restrain the cavalry, creating a new chapter in the history of tactics.

Liu Yu participated in many wars far more times than all other famous generals in the Jin and Southern and Northern Dynasties. Therefore, his long and epic military career showed the world his omnipotent military qualities. He was the master of military affairs in the Jin and Southern and Northern Dynasties.

In terms of politics, Liu Yu set an example after eliminating Huan Xuan and taking over the government. He banned hundreds of officials and quickly changed the long-standing chaotic political style of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. "In two or three days, customs changed suddenly."Whether it is to promote the elimination of land to suppress mergers or to rectify the administration of officials and re-employ poor families, they all hit the shortcomings of the times.

After the Jin Dynasty established itself, its capital was Jiankang, and the country was named Song.During his reign, he learned from the previous dynasty's tyrannical gentry's tyranny, strengthened centralization of power, restrained annexation, implemented land extermination, rectified official administration, reused humble scholars, revitalized education, and repeatedly sent envoys to visit the people's sufferings, despised corvee and reduced taxes, and abolished harsh laws. , improved social conditions, and established the political pattern of "cold people holding secrets" in the Southern Dynasties.

Liu Yu has a gambler's mentality who dares to take risks, and his indomitable determination, combined with his unparalleled personal bravery and the fearless combat capabilities of the Beifu Army, combine to create the most perfect war machine.

This means that he can capture opportunities that others dare not take action, and it also ensures his exceptional robustness in adversity and even desperate situations.

It is this characteristic that makes any other famous generals from the Jin Dynasty and the Southern and Northern Dynasties eclipse in front of his glory.

In addition, it should be pointed out that under the command of Liu Yu's monarch charisma, his generals were also infected by him, and they dared to take risks and move forward bravely.

This kind of positive support for the entire military group was extremely rare, even unique, in the 300 years of the Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties.

As a result, the only person under his command is Cao Cao. Others may be more capable than Liu Yu, but they do not have the courage to be a monarch.
