Chapter 232 Visionary
"If the prince wants to revive the majesty of business, the key lies in three people. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info" Liu San pondered for a long time and said slowly.
"Oh?" Hearing this, Yang Ke couldn't help but be moved. Liu San is the best among businessmen, but after all, it is only limited to businessmen, and listening to Liu San's words at this moment, it is actually a secret agreement with the hidden worries in his heart, this is not simply a businessman's thinking and vision can reach, more like a strategist who lives far away from the rivers and lakes thinks and worries, and is still an extremely clever strategist, thinking of this, Yang Ke couldn't wait to ask: "Please sir in detail." ”
"The Hexi Corridor borders the Qiang and Xiongnu, and leads to the Western Regions outside, while the inner border is long, reaching many states and counties. Although the Qiang people are numerous, but there are many people, they do not have the strength to threaten our Great Jin for the time being, and they can be connected and repaired, so the Qiang is not worried. Hearing this, Yang Ke nodded yes, he knew that the real rise and dominance of the Qiang people in the world would start with Songtsen Gampo in the Tang Dynasty to unify the Qiang people, and the current divided Qiang really don't have to worry.
Liu San continued: "The first person at the critical point is Shi Le, the second person is Li Te, and the third person is Zhang Liang. ”
Yang Ke's face was silent, but his heart was turbulent, as a traverser, of course, he knew that these three people were not only related to the safety of the Hexi Corridor, but more importantly, the five Hu and Sixteen Kingdoms, the clothes and the southward crossing were all caused by these three people taking the lead, following them, there was a chaos in the history of the Central Plains Dynasty, and this chaos, it took generations of descendants to complete the reorganization of the rivers and mountains. Unexpectedly, Liu San saw through the crux of the problem at a glance, looking at the world, even if it was a high-ranking person in the middle of the court, there was no one who could have this insight.
The first person named Shile that Liu San talked about, the small character Qiangle, the Qian nationality, and the Shangdang Wuxiang people. He was the founder of Later Zhao during the Sixteen Kingdoms period, known as Emperor Ming of Later Zhao in history. He was also the only slave emperor in Chinese history. When he was fourteen years old, Shi Le went to Luoyang with the people in the village to peddle, and once leaned against the upper east gate and roared loudly, and the left servant of Shangshu shot Wang Yan was surprised when he saw it, and turned back to the people on the left and right and said: "The Hu boy just now, I heard his voice and felt that he had outstanding ambitions, and I am afraid that he will become a disaster for the country in the future." (To the Hu Yan, I see that his voice and vision have strange ambitions, and I am afraid that it will be a disaster for the world.) Men were sent to arrest him, and it happened that Shile had already left. If it is true, that Wang Yan will one day regret his intestines, because it was this Hu boy who broke Wang Yan's army in the confrontation between the two armies a few years later, and captured Wang Yan alive.
Yang Ke knew that in the process of Shi Le's victory in the world, there was a pivotal key strategist who planned for him, that is, Zhang Bin he killed at that time, but the real reason for killing Zhang Bin was that he couldn't explain it to outsiders. This Shile also used to be a spy for the anti-intermediary, and with the trust of the enemy chieftain, he absorbed the other party's subordinates in one fell swoop and laid his first pot of gold.
Liu Yuan sent Shi Le to lead an eastward invasion in 308. Shile captured Yecheng in September, and the Jin expedition to the northern generals and Yu fled. In October, Liu Yuan was proclaimed emperor and awarded the envoy the festival and the general of Pingdong. Soon Shi Le led 30,000 troops to attack Wei County, Ji County and Dunqiu, and more than 50 fortresses gathered by the locals were attached to the wind, so he was given the seal of the general and the commander of the fake base. Later, he killed Wang Cui, the Taishou of Wei County, and Feng Chong, the governor of the western part of Jizhou, and defeated and killed the generals of the beggar army, Yu Ting and Tian Yu. Liu Yuan then awarded Shile Anton the general and opened the mansion. Shi Le then attacked Julu and Changshan in 309, and the number of troops increased to more than 100,000 people, and more scribes joined, and set up a "gentleman's camp" with them. Because of his strong military strength, under the persuasion of Zhang Si of Shile, most of the Hu Liang people in Bingzhou also followed Shile.
In the fourth year of Yongjia, Shi Lenan crossed the Yellow River, captured Baima, and attacked Xu, Henan, and Yansanzhou with Wang Mi. Soon after, he captured Juancheng and Cangyuan, and crossed the Yellow River north to attack the Jizhou army, surrendering more than 90,000 civilians to him. Later, he assisted Liu Cong and others to attack Hanoi, and attacked the champion general Liang Ju, and Emperor Huai of Jin sent troops to rescue. Liang Ju still asked to surrender because of the defeat, but Shi Le did not allow it, and finally killed more than 10,000 soldiers and killed Liang Ju, and the reinforcements were also returned. This battle shocked all the self-defended fortresses in Hebei, and they sent hostages to Shile one after another.
Shi Le later changed to attack Nanyang, and the Yongzhou exiles Wang Ru, Hou Tuo, and Yan Wei, who had rebelled in Jingzhou earlier, were frightened, so they sent 10,000 troops to defend Xiangcheng to resist. However, after Shi Le arrived, he defeated the defenders and captured all his troops, and stationed north of Wancheng. At that time, Hou Tuo possessed Wancheng and Wang Ru guarded the county, Wang Ru was afraid of Shile's attack, so he bribed Shile with treasures and became brothers with him; At the same time, because Wang Ru and Hou Tuo were not on good terms, he persuaded Shile to attack Hou Tuo. Yan Wei knew that Shi Le led troops to rescue after attacking Wan, but Shi Le captured Wancheng on the 12th, and Yan Wei couldn't catch up and surrendered directly to Shi Le. Shi Le killed Hou Tuo and imprisoned Yan Wei, and merged the two of them, and the army was very strong.
Shile then invaded further south, attacked Xiangyang, and followed the Han River to capture more than 30 fortresses in Jiangxi. After Shi Leliu Diao Ying defended Xiangyang, he led 30,000 elite cavalry to attack Wang Ru, but because he was afraid that Wang Ru would be strong, he attacked Xiangcheng instead. When Wang Ru found out, he ordered his younger brother Wang Li to lead his troops and attack Shile under the pretense of being an army, but he was destroyed by Shile. At this point, Shile has the will to occupy the Yangtze River and Hanshui area.
In February of the second year of Taixing, Shi Le sent Zuo Changshi Wang Xuan to present good news to Liu Yao, and Liu Yao then awarded Shi Le Dazai, the leading general, and the king of Zhao, and added a series of special treatments, just like the precedent of Cao Cao in the Eastern Han Dynasty in the past. After Liu Yao asked Wang Xuan to return to Xiangguo, Cao Pingle, a native of Shileshe, told Liu Yao that the purpose of Wang Yao's coming was to explore Liu Yao's reality, and after Wang Xuan returned to report, Shi Le would attack Liu Yao. At that time, Liu Yao's strength was indeed greatly depleted, and after hearing Cao Pingle's words, he was very afraid that Wang Xuan would report his truth to Shi Le, so he chased back Wang Xuan and killed Wang Xu, and the official titles, titles and courtesies originally granted to Shi Le were also shelved. Liu Mao, Wang's deputy, managed to escape, and when Shi Le returned to Xiangguo in March, he reported Wang's death, and Shi Le was furious: "I have served the Liu family, and I have done more than my duty as a minister." I have laid down their inheritance, and today they have the will to come and plot against me. King Zhao, Emperor Zhao, I can give it to myself, how can I use it to be given by them! Since then, he has formed a grudge with the former Zhao.
Since Shi Le took refuge in Liu Yuan, he is his own Xiongnu sworn brother. Since then, it is like taking a big ship, riding the wind and waves, sailing away, Liu Yuan established the former Zhao State, after his death, the Xiongnu experienced Liu He, Liu Cong, Liu Cang, Liu Yao, these four emperors, the last emperor was in power, Shi Le set up another door, established the Later Zhao Dynasty.
