Chapter 745: Demons
Youzhou, Jixian County, where the shogunate of Sima Yi's expeditionary generals is located.
A letter from home from Luoyang broke the tranquility here.
Before the onset of winter, the scattered nomadic soldiers of the Six Towns retreated to the Seyne one after another to escape the cold winter outside the Seychelles.
In the past few decades, the climate has been changeable, and the winter outside the city is also extremely cold, with snow up to three or four feet thick overnight, and herdsmen and livestock have been frozen to death and starved to death from time to time.
Sené was much better, because the war had devastated the population and the vast deserted fields.
Sima Yi reorganized the soldiers of the six towns, and formed a system of nomadic herding outside in spring, summer and autumn, and returning to the Seinai for the winter in winter; During the nomadic period, the soldiers of each town also divided the exclusive pastures according to the establishment, and planted wicker to demarcate the boundary.
Now, in addition to some more barbaric, nomadic and fishing tribes in the depths of the Great Xianbei Mountain, other Xianbei, Donghu, Wuhuan, and Xiongnu have all been included in the establishment of the six towns.
Since ancient times, there has been a saying that the South Barbarian, the North Dixirong, and the East Yi, and the "Yi" has always been a bit human.
According to the glyph, the Yi people are a group of people who wear hats and are good at using bows and arrows.
The general of Zhengyi, as the name suggests, authorized him to manage all the Dongyi tribes, settlements, and cities around Liaodong, and to take charge of the conquest.
In the governance of the country, there was not only the Gongsun clan of Liaodong, but also the three Koreas of Korea, and there was also a Goguryeo who fished, hunted, graze, and at the same time absorbed Youyan refugees and learned to farm.
Among them, the most difficult thing to do was the Gongsun clan, which occupied the vast land of Liaodong and accepted Goguryeo and Joseon as vassals; Agriculture and animal husbandry, fishing and hunting, and commerce are developed in the territory, and if this goes on for a long time, when the Gongsun clan integrates Goguryeo, Samhan and other vassals, it will inevitably become a major problem for the Central Plains.
Uprooting the Gongsun clan and avoiding the Gongsun clan from descending to the Han Dynasty is a strategy that has already been set by the Great Wei Dynasty.
And now, it is urgent to attack the Gongsun clan.
It's just that the heavy snow is blocking the road, whether it is the six towns of Youyun or the Gongsun family, they can only secretly plan something in this winter, but they can't do it.
In the shogunate, Sima Yi and Master Sima quietly drank tea, and a row of plum trees was planted in the corner of the wall outside the window...... Now the branches are covered with snow, and it is impossible to tell whether they are dead or alive.
Sima Yi grabbed a pen to draw a map on the water-painted tabletop, pondering from time to time, and then wiped the ink with a damp cloth towel before making minor adjustments.
For the family and the imperial court, it is urgent to start a war against the Gongsun clan.
But this battle must not be launched hastily, at least not this winter; Not in the spring and summer of next year.
At present, the Gongsun clan is still the Liaodong county guard of the Great Wei; Due to the prestige of the six towns of Youyun, the Gongsun clan currently maintains its subordinate status; If it weren't for the six towns of Youyun, the Gongsun clan would have crossed the sea to hook up with Zhang Fei and become a vassal of the Han family.
Therefore, it is not easy to express hostility towards the Gongsun clan...... After all, this is a big family, and as long as it does not show obvious hostility, most of them will still choose peace and compromise, and will not unite together to resist decisively.
The Gongsun clan is like a napping person, relying on the Liao Tunnel Heavenly Danger to attack from the Yanzhao region...... There is an arrogance that stems from self-confidence.
Only when the Gongsun clan continues to nap can he kill with a single blow with the momentum of lightning.
Now I really can't tolerate the Gongsun family; Not only will the Han family collude and plot against the Gongsun clan; The Great Wei court will also win over the Gongsun clan to isolate the six towns of Youyun.
The general of Zhengyi naturally controlled Liaodong and Zhuyi; In order to limit its own power, the Great Wei court may enhance the status of the Gongsun clan, which is not conducive to the six towns of Youyun.
When the Great Wei court stabilizes the Gongsun clan, it is very likely to attack him.
Sima Yi studied and calculated the map, and wanted to find the place 6,000 miles 'east' of Luoyang on this 'self-made map'.
After continuous calculation, it can be roughly determined that the three Koreans of Korea should be 4,000 miles away from Luoyang; Therefore, the evil place that Tian Xin refers to is definitely not North Korea, but on a large overseas island outside of North Korea.
This news was sent by the clan brother, Henan Yin Sima Zhi; At the latest, when spring begins, the Gongsun clan of Liaodong will also know.
So what will happen to the Gongsun clan?
In the early years of the Gongsun Du period, the Gongsun clan actively expanded to the outside world, once crossed the sea to capture Donglai, and set up the Yingzhou Thorn History Department. Therefore, the Gongsun clan had a fleet of sailors who could cross the Bohai Sea and look at the ships between Liaodong and Donglai.
If this fleet is vigorously supported by the Gongsun clan, it will definitely be able to return to the size of the year.
Therefore, there is a high probability that the Gongsun clan will ...... to this overseas island Or it's a very big island, just like those dark and short overseas Yi people said back then, there is a very large territory, as large as Joseon's Samhan.
Searching for overseas immortal mountains has been the consistent pursuit of the monks of the Middle Earth dynasties.
The Gongsun clan has no way to enter at present, and it is very likely to explore overseas, preparing to arrive at the overseas immortal island before the Wei army and the Han army, to hunt that demon, if the Gongsun family eats the demon and raises a 'celestial man' like Tian Xin, it is enough to gain a foothold in the world.
What about your chances......
In the spring and summer of next year, the six towns should go to the pastures outside the Saiwai to graze normally, during which the Gongsun clan will be paralyzed; In autumn, they gathered elite cavalry, bypassed the Liao Tunnel, and interspersed from the upper reaches of the Liao River, that is, the Goguryeo region, to attack Liaodong and disintegrate the Gongsun clan.
Then grab this Liaodong sailor, and when there is no sea breeze in winter, go to explore this overseas immortal mountain.
In other words, if everything goes well, at this time next year, I should probably be on a ship or set foot on an overseas fairy island.
Sima Yi's expression was calm, he had already listed the Gongsun clan as a dead man, and he was thinking about what he should do after the birth of the overseas immortal island.
If you want to occupy the overseas immortal island, this is too difficult, the soldiers of the six towns are used to the current nomadic way, and there are definitely not many people who are willing to go to the overseas immortal island.
But with the loss of the soldiers of the six towns, how can he subdue Liaodong, Goguryeo, Sanhan, and overseas barbarians?
had to find another way to try to take away one-third of the soldiers of the Six Towns; In this way, the current territory of the Gongsun clan can be controlled, and then used as a springboard to migrate the population to overseas immortal islands and gradually develop them.
Since it is an island, you can't think about advancing layer by layer...... So also develop your own water army.
Unlike Sima Yi, who thinks about big things, Sima Shi is more concerned about the safety of his mother and younger brother.
From Sima Zhi's letter, Sima Shi was at ease, and his younger brother was recommended by his friend Xiahou Xuan to study at Nanshan University, and apprenticed to Chen Liucai's family. In order to respect the teacher, Sima Zhao changed his name to Sima Wen.
The younger brother can gain a firm foothold in Nanshan Academy, and with the care of Cai and Xiahou Xuan, he will naturally be able to enter Guanzhong in the future.
As long as my brother's life is good, my mother won't worry too much.
Father and son have different emphases, but they also share the same understanding.
Only if they firmly control the army under their command, then Zhang Chunhua and Sima Wen can naturally be courteous to Tian Xin.
The longer they were in charge of the army outside, the thicker the relationship network that Zhang Chunhua and Sima Wen had formed in Guanzhong; If the six towns of Youyun do not help, and his father and son return to Guanzhong, there is also a possibility of accommodation, settlement, and acceptance.
This is the way out, and the direction of progress is clear, that is, the demon.
If you get a demon, whether you eat it or use it as a bargaining chip, you can exchange it for a rich and peaceful person.
