Chapter 179 Wen Xi is right
Looking at the civil servants who were filled with righteous indignation and wished to beat Qiao Chun to death on the spot, Pei Xiaoer asked Qiao Chun without any comment and said, "Your reason is not enough to convince me, even if the next time is not enough to deal with the encirclement of officers and soldiers.
, but at least, this time our army is sure to win, and we will talk about what happened next time."
"Yes." Qiao Chun bowed seriously and said, "There are three reasons for humble position and have to leave."
"Tell me, look."
"First, our army is located in southern Shanxi, which is the place of four battles, whether it is Taiyuan in the north, Shaanxi in the west, Northern Zhili in the east, Henan in the south, no matter where the troops are sent,
All can threaten the rear of our army. If the four sides of the government army come out together, our army will be surrounded by enemies, defend and passive everywhere. At that time, our army will be peaceful, how can we develop?
Secondly, although the production in southern Shanxi has gradually recovered under our army's rule, it still cannot be compared with the usual years. I heard that the land output under our army's rule is not even half of the average year's output. Such production is
How can you support the army when you come out?
In addition, even if our army has silver and goes to other provinces to buy grain, Henan is now in ruins and is now in battle and training, and even if we are not enough to sell it to our army? And the same is true for the provinces. In this way, our army can buy it since then.
The nearest grain production area we arrived in Huguang. Huguang is more than a thousand miles away from our army. If we buy the third one and get one, it will not be a long-term solution.
Third, our army has now become a thorn in the eyes of the official army and a thorn in the flesh. First of all, this is because our army's practices are very different from those of the bandits, and it poses a greater threat to the court. The court will definitely not allow our army to develop calmly, and will definitely
Trying to encircle and suppress our army; secondly, the southern part of Jin is less than a thousand miles away from the capital. If our army is strong, it can directly threaten the imperial court. No matter how stupid the imperial court is, it will know that under the bed, it will not allow others to sleep soundly
reason.
Therefore, I am humble in my post and think that our army should make plans early and go away to another place."
Qiao Chun's words were reasonable and well-founded. Pei Xiaoer and Liu Xianchun, who were sitting in the upper head, bowed their heads and thought deeply. However, some civil servants in the hall seemed increasingly angry and felt that they wanted to say something else.
To refute Qiao Chun, he saw that Pei Xiaoer and Liu Xianchunjun both said something, so he had no choice but to endure it for the time being.
After thinking for a long time, Pei Xiaoer suddenly asked, "Then do you think, if our army wants to transfer, which place is better to transfer? You can't always wander around like the bandits, right? In that case, one day,
Our army will be wiped out by the official army, so it is better to stay here and fight to the death with the officers and soldiers."
"This..." Qiao Chun hesitated for a moment when she heard Pei Xiaoer's question. She actually had an idea in her heart, but she was not very mature. She didn't know whether she should use what she thought to Pei Xiao at this moment.
Two say it out.
But Qiao Chun hesitated, and the civil servant who was unhappy next to him immediately stood up and pointed at Qiao Chun and cursed: "General. This person is a person who seeks fame and seeks favor and sells straightforwardness. He seems to be very wise, but in fact he is in a jealous way.
It was empty. As soon as he asked him about the specific situation, he immediately leaked the stuff. He also asked the general to insert this person out and never hire him."
When Qiao Chun saw Pei Xiaoer's eyebrows and eyes moved when he heard this man's words, he couldn't help but feel anxious. He didn't expect that his suggestion would cause disaster, and he didn't care whether his ideas were good or not.
He said it all out.
"General, I am humble in my position to settle down in Sichuan."
"Sichuan?" Pei Xiaoer's eyes narrowed, his eyes stared at Qiao Chun with bright eyes, signaling him to continue. The civil servant who had been accusing Qiao Chun on the side wanted to say something, but Pei Xiaoeryi was
The glare was so scared that he shrank back and did not dare to say more.
"Yes, general." Qiao Chun nipped his teeth lightly. Since he had already said it, he would not look back. He then continued, "I think our army is still weak at this stage and urgently needs to find a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Come to resist the encirclement of officers and soldiers.
Not only that, this place must also have a large population and a large land. In this way, our army will take over it. With the virtue of a general and the talent of Mr. Liu, our strength will be greatly increased by time. By then, our army will be strong and our foundation will be stable.
, In this way, when sending troops to fight the world, how can there be a reason for the world to be inferior?
For such a place, just imagine what is the whole world besides Sichuan? Sichuan has the dangers of mountains and rivers and the solid city. If you rely on it, you can resist the officers and soldiers with a few troops. Moreover, Sichuan has a large population and fertile land. I
If there are troops, within a few years, they will definitely dominate the country. Watch the two tigers in the Central Plains fight. At that time, our army will send troops north to capture Shaanxi, and then take down the Central Plains, and the whole world will be returned to the general.
”
"Sichuan," Pei Xiaoer repeatedly muttered these two words, raising his forehead slightly, and everyone present could not understand his true thoughts.
Seeing that Pei Xiaoer did not agree or objected, the civil servant who had always opposed it felt that Pei Xiaoer had no agreement. He immediately stood up again, pointed at Qiao Chun, and cursed: "It's really nonsense, you
Is it going to kill our army? After more than a thousand years of historical records, all the forces occupying Shuchuan were Bashu in front, Shu Han in the back, and Later Shu, and Mingxia in our dynasty.
These forces all occupy Shu and dominate for a while, but what is the result? Waiting for the pacification of the Central Plains, surrendering to all directions, the separatist regimes in Shu all died and were ridiculed by the temple. Do you want the general to learn from them?"
In fact, what this official who has always accused Qiao Chun is saying is not without reason. Sichuan has never had any cases of unifying the world since ancient times. Sichuan is surrounded by mountains, with a huge basin in the middle, and the surrounding mountains are extremely
It is easy to block attacks from the outside world. As the saying goes, before the world is chaotic, Shu is chaotic first, the world is settled, and Shu is determined later, which is what is said.
However, once these forces enter Sichuan, the extremely comfortable environment will quickly destroy people's will and destroy people's motivation to struggle. Not only that, even if people entering Sichuan are determined and actively expanding, they will resist from all sides.
When foreign forces attacked, the mountains with great advantages became obstacles, like natural barriers that could not be crossed. Otherwise, even those who were as smart as Zhuge Kongming had gone out to Qishan six times and returned without success.
Now, Qiao Chun encouraged Pei Xiaoer to abandon his foundation in Shanxi and run to Sichuan, which made people doubt his motives.
"General, this is not the case." Qiao Chun saw the other party's big hat and buckled it, and immediately became anxious and explained, "I always thought that if our army occupied Sichuan, the court would have all its energy.
The rebel army will give priority to the elimination of bandits, while our army can take the opportunity to develop. If other rebels are found to be at risk of being wiped out, our army can also go out to Sichuan to attack Shaanxi to relieve the dangers of other rebel army.
At that time, whether to advance or retreat, the power will be in the hands of our army. When the officers and soldiers and bandits are exhausted and both sides are injured, our army will go north from Sichuan and clean up the rivers and mountains, and it will be easy to see the general clearly.”
The opposing civil servant wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Pei Xiaoer. Pei Xiaoer said, "Okay, okay. Let's go here first today, let me think about it carefully. However,
But the army of the northern court is urgent. I will set off to the north early tomorrow morning. Zhongfang, stay in Wenxi, you must raise military rations, recruit new soldiers, and provide sufficient supplies to the front."
"Yes, the general's subordinates understand," Liu Xianchun nodded.
"Well, everyone else has dispersed, right?" As Pei Xiaoer said, the others stood up and saluted one after another, and then retreated. Liu Xianchun walked to the end and saw that the other officials had walked out. He turned around and told Pei Xiaoer.
"General, what Qiao Chun said is not unreasonable, so please consider it carefully." Liu Xianchun expressed his attitude. He actually supported what Qiao Chun said. Moving to Sichuan first cultivates himself, and then he will talk about it when he has the strength in the future.
