Chapter 567: Northwest County

Jia Xu is a native of Wuwei, Liangzhou. He thinks that Wang Gui has never been to Liangzhou at all, let alone knows about Liangzhou. It's all about paper, and it's a lot of talk.

Liangzhou is indeed influenced by Xiqiang, how heroic, how strong, and the man is good at fighting.

However, there are many loyal and brave people in Liangzhou since ancient times. I didn't hear it from afar, so I said that Liangzhou Sanming, Huangfu Song, Gai Xun, etc., made great contributions to the imperial court to stabilize Xiqiang.

Jia Xu was influenced by Liu Fan, and was no longer the same as in history, only seeking self-preservation.

He is now comparable to Zhang Liang and Chen Ping, he assisted Liu Fan in establishing a foundation, and he will not watch anyone slander and destroy the current achievements.

Behead Wang Gui, and the world will be stable. This sentence stirred up a thousand waves.

Some people think that Wang Gui's words are indeed excessive.

It is inevitable that the prime minister will take Guan Long.

Liangzhou has been the territory of the Han Dynasty since ancient times, and the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty are indispensable.

But some people think that Jia Xu's words are a provocation to civil and military officials.

Yang Zan, the captain of Huqiang, came out of the ranks, impeached Jia Xu, and said: "Shang Shuling insulted important ministers in the court, which is a big crime."

"Shang Shuling, what do you think?"

Liu Fan asked Jia Xu.

Jia Xu stood up, saluted the hundred officials present, and explained: "Back then, the Xiongnu Shan Yu Maodun rebelled against the Empress Dowager Lu, and the general Fan Xu praised Haikou and said, 'I wish to have 100,000 people, rampant among the Huns', so loyal and patriotic, Ji Bu still said that Fan Hao can be beheaded. Liangzhou is the key to the world, the national domain, and the gateway to Guanzhong. And Guanzhong is the gateway to the Central Plains. Gaozu and Lishang pacified the Longyou region, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty opened up Liangzhou and set up four counties of Wuwei, Zhangye, Jiuquan and Dunhuang. Now the governance of Liangzhou is chaotic, there is rebellion, the world is in turmoil, and the prime minister is difficult to sleep and eat. Wang Gui, as a military attache with 2,000 stones, can't share the worries of the country, but wants to cut off a territory of thousands of miles, I am puzzled by this. Li Dao, Guo Yan, Han Sui, Ma Teng, there are many foreign races in the soldiers and horses under their command, and the ambition of the wolf son is zero, if the traitor is allowed to stabilize Liangzhou, he will launch a more powerful offensive, which is the biggest evil result! If Wang Gui doesn't know this truth, then he is ignorant, and if he does it knowingly, then he is disloyal to the Han. ”

Jia Xu's sharp words made the court silent for a short time.

In an instant, the courtiers whispered and talked about it again.

"Liangzhou is the hard work of Gaozu and Shizong, countless Han children have succeeded each other, and the vast territory has been obtained, Jia Lingjun is right. Without the Han of Liangzhou, it is not a unified Han. ”

Zhou Zhongxiang got up and said.

"Liangzhou is a good land that is not inferior to Xu Ji, and the Hexi Corridor has fertile soil that is suitable for farming. Because it is located on the border of Han and Qiang, the people are fierce and not afraid of death, and it is a place of elite soldiers. There is also a saying that Liangzhou is a horse that is rampant in the world. Liangzhou celebrities, and there are many knowledgeable people. I think Wang Gui's home is not in Liangzhou, so I let out this kind of big talk. ”

Huang Wan also said to Liu Fan.

At this time, Wang Gui was already in cold sweat on his forehead. Since Jia Xu's words, no one dared to speak for Wang Gui.

Everyone looked at Liu Fan and wanted to see how Liu Fan dealt with Wang Gui.

Liu Fan's generals marched westward, which was imperative, and Wang Gui had to intervene. This is something that Liu Fan cannot tolerate.

"Is Captain Yue Cavalry ignorant or disloyal? If it is the former, you will take off the seal and leave the court. If it's the latter, then try that my sword isn't sharp. ”

Liu Fan used a stern voice to condemn Wang Zhuo.

Wang Gui is embarrassed, Jia Xu's words blocked Wang Gui's back road, is it ignorance or disloyalty?

The former punishes his body, and the latter punishes his heart.

"If a person is not a sage, who can be without fault? Wang Yueqi also took into account the country, so he was a little unscrupulous. ”

Wu Xun, who will be a master craftsman, pleaded with Wang Gui.

"This kind of open-mouthed, speaking in the court is like contempt for the emperor's authority. Could it be that the Son of Heaven is not there? Are you so presumptuous? I just want to ask Captain Yue Cai, whether he is ignorant or disloyal! Let no one else say much, lest they be infected by his foolishness or infidelity! ”

Liu Fan stood up, holding a sword in one hand and carrying his back in the other, his eyes were like electricity, including majesty.

All ministers who have ghosts in their hearts dare not look at them.

All civil and military officials know that although Liu Fan is as authoritarian as Dong Zhuo, Liu Fan is an upright person, a true man, and a very royal way.

Wang Gui looked left and right, and found that no one dared to squeak, the huge court hall was quiet and terrible.

He suddenly fell into underestimation in his heart, regretting that he had talked too much.

Wang Gui took off the seal ribbon from his waist, held it in his hand, came to Liu Fan, put it down in front of Liu Fan's low table, and said discouragedly: "The minister is ignorant and unworthy of this official position!"

After finishing speaking, Wang Gui hung his head and walked out of the court.

"Today's situation, as it was in the early years, is a necessary change under the general trend. The annexation of the powerful land, the people's homes are surrounded by walls, and there are even more people who have no target, resulting in the human tragedy of Zhumen's wine and meat, and frozen bones on the road. I want to follow the example of Zhou Gong to assist the Han Dynasty, and then shape a prosperous era of Jianwu. The attack of Guanlong is imperative, and only by obtaining Guanlong can we pacify those rebels in Shandong. This time I went to Guanlong, and I personally commanded the overall situation. Before the arrival of winter snow this year, I will station my soldiers and horses in Wuwei. ”

Liu Fan said to the ministers in a straight manner.

"Take Guanlong in the west and crusade against the unsubordinate. It is a major event related to the society, and the national tripod is not divided, and the national honor can last forever. There are few people in the DPRK who know the soldiers, and this kind of thing is decided by the prime minister. The ministers wished the prime minister a victory. ”

Zhao Qi got up and said to Liu Fan.

With the tragedy of Zhao Qi taking the lead and Wang Gui, the rest of the ministers did not dare to stop Liu Fan from using troops against Guan Long. They all bowed to Liu Fan.

"With your support, this will calm down Guanlong in one fell swoop. After I left, the major affairs were handled by Shang Shuling Jia Xu, and Prime Minister Si Zhi Xun Yu was the deputy. ”

Liu Fan arranged.

Although the minister felt uncomfortable, there was nothing he could do.

"Prime Minister, after pacifying Liangzhou, you can choose a county in Liangzhou and focus on development. It has made it an important commercial port in the northwest. Set up important ministers and heavy troops in this county, repair the road leading to this county in Xi'an, increase the control of the counties of Xiliang, and deter Qiang. Prevent the recurrence of the Hanqiang Rebellion. ”

At this time, Xun Yu got up and suggested to Liu Fan.

"Si Zhi Gao, I don't know which county is the most suitable?"

Liu Fan praised Xun Yu, and then asked him.

"Wuwei County is known as the throat of the five counties that leads to the desert and controls the five counties. Not only is it strategically important, but it is also rich in products and fertile land. It is one of the nodes of the Silk Road. Select a city of Wuwei, rebuild it, make it a big northern city that can be as famous as Chang'an, and send a minister with both civil and military skills to sit in Wuwei and blend Qianghu, so that the customs of the Central Plains and the customs of Xiliang are more circulating. In this way, Wuwei can be Weixi Domain, and the south can Zhenqiang and Hu, so that Liangzhou will always defend the Han Dynasty. ”

Xun Yu replied to Liu Fan.
