Chapter 183: Razing and Razing

Raze to raze!

When he heard this word, a glimmer of light flashed in Liu Xie's eyes, don't look at it as only four words, but this is a very clever strategy to confront and restrain foreign races.

There are two theories about the origin of this strategy in the rumors.

The first statement is recorded in the Book of the Later Han Dynasty, the Biography of Deng Xun.

Deng Xun is the founding father of the Eastern Han Dynasty and the son of Deng Yu, the head of the 28 generals of Yuntai, but what is written in the original text is actually "razed and razed".

The second theory is that according to legend, this strategy appeared in the hands of Wang Anshi of the Northern Song Dynasty, and he also really implemented the strategy, and under this strategy, he made a lot of gains.

However, no matter where the word comes from, coming out of Cao Cao's mouth at this moment, Liu Xie is more inclined to it, this is his personal idea, after all, in terms of strategy and tactics, there are always some similarities among those who combine them.

Suppressing the surprise in his heart, Liu Xie looked at Cao Cao pretended to be puzzled: "Dasikong, what do you mean by using razing to control raze?" ”

"It's very simple, does Your Majesty know why the minister wanted to include Kiran in the army?"

Liu Xie shook his head, in fact, he could imagine it, but he still wanted to hear what Cao Cao would say.

And Cao Cao didn't hold back, took a deep breath, and stroked his beard: "Let's put it this way, Kiran is undoubtedly the person who is most familiar with Guishan among us, and I believe Your Majesty can also see that he is a person with hatred and dreams." ”

"That's right." Liu Xie bowed his head and listened very carefully.

Cao Cao continued: "It is precisely because of this point that he can be recruited, so recruit him, and people like him often have a certain degree of incitement, and there is today's naturalized army." ”

"From here on, the Han army is equivalent to becoming one with the Kushan army in a sense, and when we fight, they can charge into battle and lead the way for us. It's also the best person to be a guide and a translator, right? ”

"Yes." Liu Xie nodded again.

Cao Cao smiled and continued: "Then the next is the most important thing, Your Majesty, with the first few as the base point, if we want to conquer Guishan, there will be a lot less obstacles. ”

"That's true."

"Then the treatment that Kieran received in the Han army was unimaginable to him in his previous identity, so will more people start to defect in order to change their status quo and get ahead."

"In this way, we have a steady stream of soldiers, and there will be no problem in how long this battle is fought. With the growth of the naturalized army, Kieran's status will naturally continue to improve, and at that time, all the naturalized army will become his subordinates, let's win, who is the absolute owner of Guishan? ”

"Big Han."

"Yes, but the exercise of power is in the hands of Kilan, he controls the largest military force in the region, and then we use him to get benefits, as well as his awe of the Han and all other emotions, when the people of Guishan are governed by him, and he is controlled by His Majesty, then Guishan is not equal to being controlled by the Han?"

Speaking of this, Cao Cao suddenly stood up, and seemed to sigh a little: "The most familiar with the local customs and the inheritance of his country, then he can control the weakness of the hearts of the people of the Guishan people, he can face his own clan, he can use the most appropriate method to control, and even if he does too much, all these complaints will not fall on the Great Han, if he is pushed to the height of Vesudeva, he becomes a mediocre person, or he no longer wants to be loyal to the Great Han, we have a way to easily eliminate him." ”

"Lord Sikong, I don't quite understand this last sentence."

As soon as Liu Xie wanted to ask, Cao Cao gave the explanation he wanted most.

"Actually, Your Majesty, you can look at it from another angle, if one day Kiran becomes the king, but he changes, and he begins to be mediocre and extravagant, then the people think of who can ask for help? It's a big man. ”

"Secondly, if he becomes the king, won't the imperial court send someone to supervise here? If one day, his status is given by the Han, then the Han will deprive him again, and the people will not say anything, on the contrary, they will be more loyal to the Han, because the Han can turn a slave into a monarch, and who among the people does not want to get this opportunity? ”

Admire!

Cao Cao's remarks made Liu Xie clearly feel that he was playing with power tricks, and in just a paragraph, he pointed out all kinds of essentials, and he had already regarded Guishan as a bag.

However, Liu Xie also noticed that all the topics of Boss Cao just now have a standard premise - hypothesis!

In other words, everything he just talked about may not happen, and what is the future of Kieran, it seems that he has already made a choice, but he just refuses to say it.

What the hell is he going to do?

Liu Xie couldn't help but think about it in his heart, and Cao Cao seemed to see what he was thinking, so he didn't say any more.

After a meal, everyone was tired, Liu Xie lay in the tent and fell asleep unconsciously, but what woke him up was a shout of killing!

What's wrong?

Suddenly startled from the tent, Liu Jin, Fu Dian and Ling Hujun were all carrying weapons to guard him at this moment, Liu Xie rubbed his eyes, and hurriedly stood up, Liu Jin picked up the armor and put it on him.

"Your Majesty, someone is attacking the camp, but don't worry, there are Xiahou Tang and them staring outside, there are two slaves and maids and uncles here, there will definitely be no problem!"

"You help me tie the back of my armor!"

After listening to him, Liu Xie immediately decided to go out to have a look, there were guards beside him, and safety was not a problem, so it was better to take this opportunity to see what it was like to be on the battlefield.

Liu Jin didn't know what he thought, it was all because he was worried about his safety, so he hurriedly helped him hang the lock plate behind him, and the armor was with him.

"Let's go out and have a look."

After Liu Jin finished fiddling, Liu Xie picked up the sword of the Son of Heaven at the head of the bed, and walked out.

Liu Jin hurriedly stopped him: "Your Majesty, no!" The situation outside is unknown, you can't go out! ”

"It doesn't matter."

Liu Xie took a deep breath, and the firmness between his words was irresistible.

Fu Dian and Ling Hujun glanced at each other at this moment, and finally nodded and accompanied him out of the tent.

Look outside, it was dark, the original fire was extinguished by someone, and they were in the woods, and the thin moonlight was not enough to support the vision.

In his ears, he could hear different slashing sounds from far and near, which were very sharp and terrifying, but Liu Xie clearly felt that under this fear, there was a faint excitement in his heart.

However, at this time, Fu Dian and Ling Hujun seemed to have discovered something, and they immediately became alert, and in an instant, Fu Dian rushed out with a sword like a leopard.

And at this moment, I don't know if there was a scream from the beginning, which made Hu Jun's ears move, and the brilliance in his eyes flashed and the knife was slashed, and then he heard the sound of gold and iron staggering, which sounded......
