Chapter 243: Another World Line
For ordinary people like Lai Ying'er, they hope for the stability of the political situation even more, after all, there is a poem that says it well - the people are bitter when they prosper, and the people who are dying are bitter. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
In those days, turmoil and war represented famine and chaos, as well as death.
And for ordinary people, they have no way to get out of it, they can only passively accept it.
Therefore, when Lai Ying'er realized that Taiping Dao might launch a huge rebellion, and as a result, there would be a great chaos in the world, and even a change of dynasty, Lai Ying'er was a little panicked.
However, Liu Xin can see that the current Han Dynasty has long been decayed, and there is no need for it to exist, if it cannot be broken and established, then the Han Dynasty will inevitably be replaced by other dynasties.
And every change, there must be people behind it who will sacrifice because of this, which is an inevitable result, so what Liu Xin can do is to minimize the sacrifice.
So, Liu Xin opened his mouth and replied: "Ying'er, I'll tell you the truth, this matter is irreparable, the power of Taiping Dao has developed to a degree, a degree that the Han court can no longer control, and now His Majesty is still being deceived by traitors and knows nothing about this matter, so this gives Taiping Dao time to continue to develop; As the Taiping Dao grows stronger and stronger, the ambition of the great sage and good teacher will become more and more inflated, and eventually it will inevitably embark on the road of rebellion, but according to my calculations, if the Taiping Dao revolts within this year, the success rate will be less than 10%; If after four years, let the Taiping Dao fully develop and make all kinds of preparations, the success rate is only fifty percent, because the Taiping Dao can only take Luoyang in one go, control Your Majesty, and force Your Majesty to let the world be a great sage and good teacher, so that Taiping Dao can have a chance to revolt successfully, but even so, Taiping Dao will control Jizhou and other regions at most, and the major forces in the rest of the regions will not have the shackles of royal power, and they will definitely use the name of King Qin to establish themselves as kings, and then they will return to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. It was the time when the princes stood side by side. ”
Liu Xin explained the current situation clearly in a few words, and by the way, he also predicted the success rate of the Taiping Dao Uprising and the new pattern of the Han Dynasty in which the Taiping Dao Uprising succeeded.
In fact, if you think about it this way, if the Taiping Dao Uprising is successful, the power structure of the world will be even more chaotic, but at this point in time, there is no really powerful prince.
First of all, the Yellow Turban Army led by Zhang Jiao, although it occupied Luoyang and forced Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty to locate him, no one would recognize Zhang Jiao's status, but would attack Zhang Jiao in a group, and Zhang Jiao would be like Dong Zhuo in history who was crusaded by many princes of unknown roads, and he was attacked from both sides, unlike Dong Zhuo in history, who did not need to worry about someone stabbing him from behind.
And can Zhang Jiao cope with the siege of the unknown number of princes?
The answer is, of course, no, although Zhang Jiao's troops are numerous, but it is still the same sentence, the Yellow Turban Army only has quantity but not quality, even if it captures Luoyang and absorbs some officers and soldiers, I am afraid that Zhang Jiao will not dare to let these officers and soldiers be responsible for the defense of important positions.
And the quality of the generals under Zhang Jiao is too low, there are few second-rate generals, only one Zhou Cang is not bad (Zhang Yan's name in the Yellow Turban Army is not counted for the time being), most of them are third-rate generals or not at the level of the stream, and the most important thing is that there is no handsome talent, so even if the Yellow Turban Army meets veterans such as Huangfu Song and Zhu Yu, they will be killed.
Therefore, Liu Xin felt that even if the Yellow Turban Army was backed by the Tiger Prison, it would be defeated by the coalition forces in half a month, and Luoyang would definitely not be able to hold it at that time, and then it would be defeated again and again, and eventually become the dust of history.
But the next plot is debatable, what will happen if Taiping Road falls?
First of all, the coalition army will definitely be divided into royalists and rebels, the royalists are mainly based on the original Han clan relatives, such as Liu Yao, Liu Yu and others, they will continue to support Emperor Han Ling, if Emperor Han Ling has died, it is unknown whether they will support the great Han clansmen; As for the rebels, that is, some families with ulterior motives are ready to replace the Liu family as the lord of the world, and there will definitely be the Yuan family among them, after all, the fourth and third dukes, the extremely human ministers can no longer satisfy them, so becoming a royal family is the pursuit of the Yuan family.
At that time, there will inevitably be another big war, and the royalists and rebels will be like the Allies in World War II who need the Axis powers, and it is very likely that they will divide the river and divide the world.
And Liu Xin at that time, thinking about it carefully, was actually a little awkward.
At that time, Liu Xin was nominally a member of the Han family, but after all, Liu Xin was a "foreign hukou", and he suddenly returned from the Western Regions, because he had not been in the genealogy of the Han family, so for old Han clan relatives like Liu Yu, the recognition of Liu Xin would not be too high, and they would even suspect that Liu Xin had ulterior motives, anyway, if Liu Xin stayed in the royalist faction, he would definitely not be reused, and as for being elected as the new emperor of the Han family, it would be even more unlikely, at best he was just a thug.
Therefore, Liu Xin's joining this royalist faction is completely asking for hardships and running counter to the interests that Liu Xin wants.
But then again, Liu Xin is a relative of the Han family after all, if he joins the rebels, not only will his reputation be greatly damaged, but other members of the rebels will also alienate Liu Xin, worried about whether Liu Xin is an undercover agent of the royalists, and the royalists will regard Liu Xin as the number one enemy, and then the hatred will be on themselves.
As for choosing to become a neutral, then Liu Xin can only say hehe, what kind of neutrality is there in this era?
Black and white is the main theme of this era, there is no gray option at all, because the neutral faction is not in the interests of the other two factions, so the two factions will be regarded as a common enemy, and then they will be attacked by a group like the Taiping Road.
So don't look at Sweden's claim to be an absolute neutral country, as long as the world war begins, Sweden must choose its own position, and if it dares to be a neutral country, it must be prepared to be "peacefully occupied" by a certain force.
So, what's the neutrality of war?
Thinking of this, Liu Xin dispelled the plan to make the Taiping Dao uprising successful, after all, this is too unin his own interests, not to mention that he still has the task given to him by Tiandao at hand, although Tiandao did not say what kind of punishment there will be if the mission fails, but Liu Xin knows very well that Tiandao will never let himself have a good time.
Therefore, Taiping Dao must die!
At this time, Lai Ying'er also came back to her senses from Liu Xin's words, and said with some sadness: "You are right, the current situation is irreparable, and the rebellion of Taiping Dao is already a certainty, so what should we do now?" ”
Liu Xin shook his head with a smile, and said seriously to Ying'er: "Ying'er, what we have to do now is very simple, that is, one word - wait." ”
Lai Ying'er looked at Liu Xin with some puzzlement, and asked, "Wait?" Why should we wait? You can tell Your Majesty about this when you meet Your Majesty in person, and Your Majesty will definitely send troops to clear Taiping Dao in anger, and Taiping Dao will have no chance to launch an uprising at that time, so why should we wait? ”
Liu Xin shook his head, and only said one sentence in his heart, sure enough, Liu Xin had already expected that Ying'er would say this.
However, Liu Xin had already prepared his words, so Liu Xin calmly said to Ying'er: "Ying'er, don't forget what I told you before, Your Majesty has been deceived by traitors, and these traitors are the ten permanent servants around Your Majesty, they accepted bribes from Taiping Dao, thus concealing the news about Taiping Dao, so Your Majesty will not know anything about the current situation of Taiping Dao, and Your Majesty's trust in the Ten Standing Servants You also know, if I tell Your Majesty the current situation of Taiping Dao, do you think Your Majesty will believe me? Or do you believe in the rhetoric of the Ten Attendants? ”
Faced with Liu Xin's question, Lai Ying'er gave an answer without thinking, "Your Majesty's trust should be the Ten Standing Attendants." ”
That's right, Lai Ying'er doesn't think that Emperor Han Ling will trust Liu Xin, after all, Emperor Han Ling's trust in the Ten Standing Servants is obvious to all in the entire Han Dynasty, basically Emperor Han Ling will not doubt the Ten Standing Servants, if there is a disagreement between the Ten Standing Servants and other people's statements, Emperor Han Ling will also decisively choose to believe the Ten Standing Servants' statements, rather than other people's statements.
Therefore, Lai Ying'er felt that even if Liu Xin opened his mouth to point out the current situation of Taiping Dao, as long as the Ten Constant Attendants intervened, Emperor Ling of Han would not pay more attention to Taiping Dao, but would have a bad impact on Liu Xin.
Liu Xin smiled and continued to say to Lai Ying'er: "What's more, the current Taiping Dao, although there have been some cross-border behaviors, but generally speaking, it is not serious, this is also an individual behavior, even if Your Majesty is investigated today, as long as Taiping Dao hands over a few scapegoats, and then let the Ten Standing Attendants maneuver around, everything will be in the past, so even if I tell Your Majesty everything now, Your Majesty will not have any thoughts about Taiping Dao, and Taiping Dao will not suffer any losses because of this, but will make Taiping Dao more vigilant, Start to be prepared, and then it will be much more troublesome for us to deal with Taiping Dao again. ”
Lai Ying'er nodded, understanding Liu Xin's good intentions.
However, Liu Xin can also feel that although Lai Ying'er did not explicitly say that he wanted to take revenge on Taiping Dao as soon as possible, Liu Xin could still hear it from Lai Ying'er's words, and Lai Ying'er still hoped that he could eradicate Taiping Dao as soon as possible.
So, Liu Xin opened his mouth and comforted: "Ying'er, you also know that there are some things that can't be rushed, especially if you want to eradicate a behemoth like Taiping Dao, you have to be well prepared, and you must also kill with one blow, so that Taiping Dao has no room for resistance, so as far as the current situation is concerned, it is not the best time to eradicate Taiping Dao." ”
"So we can only wait now, waiting for a suitable time, but I don't think we need to wait too long, because now the Taiping Dao has become impetuous, and the ambition of the great sage and good teacher is also expanding, now we let them continue to have a smooth ride, we can give them an illusion, an illusion that they can have a chance to seize the world, as long as the Taiping Dao begins to prepare for the army, I can find a way to report the conspiracy of the Taiping Dao, and then His Majesty will definitely send troops to exterminate the Taiping Dao, In this way, we can truly eradicate Taiping Dao and make Taiping Dao become the dust of history and disappear forever on this land! ”
Lai Ying'er knew that Liu Xin was comforting himself and reassuring himself that he would definitely help him take revenge.
Thinking of Lai Ying'er here, she couldn't help but nodded, and said to Liu Xin with a smile: "Ziqi, I understand, thank you." ”
Liu Xin also nodded, and said with a smile: "Ying'er, don't worry, I will definitely do what I say, Taiping Dao will be destroyed, and I have already discovered a little mouse in Taiping Dao in Luoyang City, as long as this little mouse is caught, Taiping Dao is a piece of pork on a cutting board, and I can only slaughter it!" ”
