Chapter 1009 Lu Bu is excited
"I wonder who other than Yan Xing, Ma Teng, Ma Chao, Pang De, Meng Da and other veterans from the Liangzhou Clan have the power to mobilize in the army?"
Jia Xu asked a very crucial question.
If you want to expand the Han territory, export culture, and open up trade, in addition to strong economic strength and cultural foundation, the most important thing is to have a strong enough military strength to serve as a deterrent.
Without strong military strength as a basis, all other external affairs are nonsense.
Liu Qi looked at Jia Xu with a smile: "Since you have been appointed governor of this matter, you will naturally be in charge of the military affairs of Kansai. In addition to the soldiers and generals of Liangzhou, you can also call on the people here who you think are suitable."
After saying that, Liu Qi looked at Jia Xu with a smile, quietly waiting for his reply.
Jia Xu thought seriously and did not speak in a hurry.
When I was young, I heard Liu Qi ask: "Why doesn't Wen He say anything? If you really can't tell, how about I assign a few to you? How about Lu Bu? Guan Yu? Zhang Fei?"
Jia Xu shook his head decisively: "Lü Bu is not someone who can be used by the old minister. Guan and Zhang also have some bad personalities. They are not very good at handling matters outside the northwest."
"Gan Ning? Zhang Ren, Zhao Yun...or should I transfer Wei Yan back?"
"You are still too young and not mature enough. It is better to assist His Majesty within the borders."
"Where are Huang Zhong, Wenpin, Taishi Ci or Xu Rong?"
"Huang Hansheng is the leader of the army. Your Majesty should stay with you to intimidate Yuan, Cao, and Xu Rong. He is a bit old... Wenpin is a good defender and is not suitable for the expansion of the Western Regions... Taishi Ci is a good candidate, but the old minister wants to
Ask Your Majesty to borrow two that would be more suitable."
"who?"
Jia Xu said slowly: "They are Zhang Liao and Gao Shun."
"Oh?" Liu Qi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then said with a smile: "You have a very poisonous vision... you immediately picked these two elites."
Jia Xu smiled faintly and said: "Although they have not established many meritorious deeds under His Majesty's command, the Guards Department has found out the life experiences of the two of them quite clearly, and then refer to the achievements of the two of them.
With their achievements, it is not difficult to see that the two of them are unparalleled generals with calm personalities but capable of fighting... Moreover, they came to His Majesty quite late. They will make meritorious deeds in the future. In the Central Plains, I am afraid they will not be able to compete with His Majesty.
The generals under his command are not as good as people who can use their talents to the best of their ability. Let them expand the territory for the Han Dynasty and fully display their talents, and they will not be tied up."
Liu Qi nodded and said: "That's true. The two of them are not inferior to Lu Bu in terms of talent and military skills. They can even be said to be far superior to Lu Bu. But after all, Lu Bu was their lord and now they have joined together.
If they follow Lu Bu and fight by my side, I'm afraid they will be somewhat tied up. It's better to let them out! Make achievements, this will also free them from Lu Bu's shackles."
Jia Xu smiled and said: "Among the armies that have joined your Majesty now, only the soldiers under Lu Bu have their own system and need to be divided. Your Majesty will first separate Zhang Liao and Gao Shunsong from the Bingzhou Army so that they can make contributions in the northwest and become successful in the future."
After a major event is accomplished, they will be rewarded for their achievements, so that they can be on par with Lu Bu or suppress Lu Bu. The other generals in Bingzhou will have something to think about when they see His Majesty promoting talents in an eclectic way. As time goes by, Lu Bu will gradually lose control of them.
."
After a pause, Jia Xu added: "The one Lu Bu relies on is the Bingzhou Army. Without the Bingzhou Army, he will be like a tiger without teeth and an ox without horns. From now on, he can only be driven by your Majesty and will never give birth to a child."
Two minds... In other words, he cannot give birth to two minds."
In fact, Liu Qi wanted to reuse Lu Bu, but it was always not easy to use him, or he was worried about using him.
After all, Lu Bu's reputation in history was so bad that the term "house slave with three surnames" was tailor-made for him. No one could take this title away from him. Even if Liu Qi had the confidence to convince him, deep down in his heart,
There are always some taboos.
But now Jia Xu hit the nail on the head and pointed out Lu Bu's problem clearly.
He pointed out a way for Liu Qi to use Lu Bu safely.
"When does Wenhe plan to leave for Wuwei?"
"I plan to leave after the Chinese New Year."
"Okay, I'm sure, take care along the way."
"promise."
Although Jia Xu went to the northwest to preside over the overall situation of the westward expansion, his family members were still in Luoyang, and his sons were still serving in Jingzhou and Jiaozhou respectively, and they were all under Liu Qi's control. Although Liu Qi did not allow Jia Xu to bring his family,
But the old man was very smart and took the initiative to ask the whole family to stay in Luoyang.
In this way, his personal safety can be guaranteed when he is making achievements in the northwest.
And his family members will live very comfortably in Luoyang.
…
After Jia Xu returned to the palace, Liu Qi sent people to summon Lu Bu, who had just been promoted to Cavalry Captain, and Gao Shun, the school captain, into the palace.
Lu Bu and Gao Shun entered the palace to see them. After Liu Qi chatted with them for a while, he saw Liu Qi suddenly let out a long sigh and shook his head lonely.
Seeing this, Lu Bu was curious and asked: "Why is your Majesty so worried that you make such an expression?"
"Well, now I am sitting in half of the world, with so many powerful generals around me, and advisors like rain, but the things I have to face are increasing day by day. In the past, my close friends were in high positions, and there are only a few available people. It is really difficult."
Lu Bu heard this and said hurriedly: "The difficult thing your Majesty mentioned, is it Yuan Shao?"
"It is true that Yuan Shao is my biggest difficulty, but I received news today that the Qiang people in Liangzhou have rebelled again. Yan Xing, Ma Teng, Ma Chao and others are unwilling to do their best for me to eliminate the border troubles in Liangzhou. Instead, they support the bandits.
I respect myself and intend to send good generals to Liangzhou, but most of my generals are from the south and do not understand the border situation. They are similar to Zhao Yun, Taishi Ci and other generals who are good at using cavalry. I still want to keep them to deal with Yuan Shao... Now
It is difficult to send two capable people to Liangzhou to guard the border for me."
After hearing this, Lu Bu hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, a certain family comes from a border county in Bingzhou. Although I am not familiar with Liangzhou, I think the Qiang people there have similar customs to the Xiongnu. Bu is willing to go and help your majesty eliminate the troubles he has in mind."
Liu Qi sighed and said: "Actually, I originally wanted Fengxian to help me overcome the difficulties in the northwest, but Yuan Shao's side has so many fierce generals, many soldiers and generals, and there are also Xiongnu and Wuhuan to help me, and there are many cavalry, so I
Although the cavalry team is being expanded aggressively, there is still a slight gap compared with Yuan Shao. If Fengxian is left, who will be the commander when we pacify Hebei in the future?"
After hearing this, Lu Bu felt extremely confident.
Everyone is willing to listen to nice words, especially the emperor's compliments from Chrysostom, which made Lu Bu feel that if His Majesty really wanted to pacify Hebei, he would definitely be unable to do without him.
"Fengxian, do you think Gao Qing might take this post?"
Lu Bu was stunned when he heard this.
He turned to look at Gao Shun... Gao Shun's face was expressionless, as if Liu Qishu was not talking about him at all.
The emperor wanted to borrow Gao Shun, which made Lu Bu feel a little sad.
After all, Gao Shun is his right-hand man. With Gao Shun by his side, Lu Bu will be even more powerful in fighting, and it will be extremely smooth.
If Gao Shun were allowed to go to the northwest, it would be like breaking his arm.
Before Lu Bu could speak, Liu Qi said with emotion: "If Gao Qing can take on this important task, then in the future I will lead an army to the east, and Gao Qing will lead an army to the west, and great disasters will be caused on both the east and west roads."
You Bingzhou Army will solve the problem for me... I really didn't expect that in this difficult time, Bingzhou Army would be more convenient than my Jingzhou people."
The speaker didn't mean it, but he listened with intention. Lu Bu's heart suddenly came to life.
yes!
Gao Shun is my direct descendant. Now that we are both generals in the imperial court, he has always been with me and has no great potential!
If the soldiers of the Bingzhou Army can lead the east, west, and south for Your Majesty, build meritorious services for Your Majesty, and take the path of military promotion, then the supreme commanders of the powerful Han army in the future will all be members of the Bingzhou Army. Then Lu Bu
When I am in the court, don’t I have a foundation?
