"The governor of Youzhou has been very at peace in recent years. Except for sending some money and grain every year, I almost heard about him."

"Yes, when he was just a county magistrate, he made a big fuss and overthrew Wang Jun with the power of a county. Now Wang Jun is still locked up, and there are rumors that he has been killed secretly, and the land of Youzhou is like a Chen family's one-man show."

"Strictly speaking, Youzhou is not a good place, but it is a piece of land in the imperial court. It is not a big deal to be controlled by the Chen family. If you can take the opportunity to take Youzhou back, the strength of the imperial court can also be greatly improved."

"Isn't it! I guess, the Youzhou Army has not used weapons in recent years, and its combat power has been deteriorating, and it is no longer as brave as it was back then. After all, General Conquesting the North governed a county and a large state, which is completely different. After Chen Zhengbei took over Youzhou, he was involved in energy. The Youzhou Army has not moved for several years, and his combat power may not be as good as that of the officers and soldiers."

"Yes, officers and soldiers have been fighting every year over the years. Not only the officers and soldiers, but also wherever they are fighting in the world? They are fighting desperately. Practical experience is very important. The soldiers and horses of the court fought with people every day. How many years did their troops in Youzhou remain unmoved? Let them go to war and don't be humiliated by Goguryeo again..."

The ministers' discussions gradually changed toward the inconclusiveness of the combat power of Youzhou.

But it reveals a meaning.

It was suddenly that they seemed to have fallen in love with the land in Youzhou.

"The key to the decline in the annual income of the imperial court is that the territory under its jurisdiction is declining, and the taxes in many places cannot be paid or difficult to transport them. In this case, if you want to quell the rebellion of all directions, you must first integrate yourself. But you have to think carefully about where to start this first step."

Everyone couldn't help but think about this passage from the King of Yingchuan.

The situation in the court was a bit miserable, but the previous several royal families or many ministers were fighting for power and profit. Originally, the court was controlled by the King of Donghai, King of Guanghan, King of Jin, and King of Changsha. For the King of Chu at that time, the court was someone else's, and it would not be distressed if it was ruined. Instead, it weakened its opponents and gave it an opportunity to take advantage of it.

But when they were on the banker and on stage to perform, their mentality changed immediately. They began to feel that the court was in a difficult position and that the actual control was too small, so they wanted to make some changes.

It is no wonder that the territory that the court can control at the moment is really not large, otherwise the situation in various places would not have evolved to the current situation. There would have been a large army and swept the surrounding area long ago.

In fact, the places where the New Han court could convey orders in name were really limited, that is, the line from Guanzhong to Qingxujiangzuo.

Even so, Qingzhou was still difficult to pass on government orders because of Cao Wei's riots and Banzhou's decay. Xuzhou was also obeyed Xuan and did not listen to the orders because of King Jiangdu, which further hindered the taxes and transportation of money and grain in Yangzhou, Jiangzuo, and the strength of the imperial court was greatly reduced, and the number of troops that could be raised was reduced a lot.

Strictly speaking, the lands truly controlled by the imperial court were Sizhou, Yanzhou, Yongzhou and a small part of Qinzhou.

Among them, the two corners of Sizhou were occupied by Shile and the Hun Han Kingdom respectively. Na Shile is currently calling himself the Dongzheng of the Hun Kingdom, so the vast land in the north can actually be classified into the territory of the Hun Han Kingdom. Its area is really not small, and it is not as good as Yuan Zhao forty years ago, but there is only a lack of Youzhou.

Under such circumstances, the power of the ministers in the court naturally shrank, and they wanted to seize more territorial power. However, there were bandits everywhere in the world. If they wanted to get it, they had to rely on military forces to suppress it one by one and scatter all over the world. If they could do it, the world would have been peaceful long ago. How could they still worry about it here?

In contrast, the states that are nominally part of the imperial court sequence seem to be better planned.

Many people have always looked down on the bitter and cold land of Youzhou. In addition, there is a Shi Le between the court and Youzhou, so they don’t have much thought, but since someone mentioned it, someone naturally agrees.

The King of Huainan said: "There are problems in Youzhou. Shi Le sent troops several times. If Youzhou is willing to cooperate with Zu Ti and fight together, there will be no such situation at all. It is still the Chen family is not loyal enough. Now the Shi thieves and the Huns have no time to take care of each other. It is a good time to replace the governor of Youzhou!"

When he said that, when he mentioned Shi Le, the whole court suddenly became silent, and no one dared to speak rashly anymore. Even Yu Liang, who came forward to cause the topic, took a step back secretly, not daring to really preach the slogan here, leaving behind a verbal statement.

Shi Le has been uneasy at all in recent years. He has defeated the imperial army one after another, making the whole of Jizhou uneasy. Now he has been threatening Sizhou, Yanzhou, Qingzhou and Xuzhou, which is like a great trouble in the imperial court, which is even worse than the Xiongnu Kingdom.

But on the other hand, the conflict between Shile and the Huns has also grown year by year.

Shi Le was able to revive in Jizhou under the banner of the Huns, and is still known as a member of the Huns. However, compared with the Huns Han Kingdom that occupied Bingzhou, Shi Le, which occupied most of Jizhou and a small Jiaosizhou, had little comprehensive strength, and one country and two hearts had their own strengths, and the conflicts would certainly breed.

On the one hand, the Huns king Liu Cong wiped out Liu, and was in charge of power. He wanted to integrate the country and fell in love with the nominal Han territory under Shi Le. On the other hand, Shi Le can have today because he and his brothers beat him one by one. How could he offer it with both hands?

As a result, the conflict between the two families broke out. In the intense stage, Shi Le slowed down his pace of external conquests and focused on internal confrontation.

This gave the court a breathing effort, otherwise they would not have the leisure to pay attention to the Goguryeo invasion far away in the northeast?

"inappropriate!"

Just as several political and royal families were discussing the matter in a hurry, one of them suddenly stood up and sang a counter-tune. Everyone looked over and saw that it was Zhang Ruo, the court officer, and they all thought it was this person.

A few years ago, Zhang Ruo was still in the court, and now he is in charge. He is famous for being upright and not flattering. He is quite admired by the King of Chu.

He stood up at this time, regardless of the power of the two royal princes, and said bluntly: "The Youzhou army dominated the northern land. With Shi Le's arrogant, he dared not go north. We are not capable of dealing with Shi Le. It is unwise to provoke the General Zhengbei Mansion! What's more, this Youzhou was originally under the rule of the imperial court, and the General Zhengbei was even more enthroned by the imperial court. Why do we need to provoke our own people? Isn't it ridiculous?"
