"In this way, the Jia Dynasty doesn't have the idea of taking Shuzhong?" Luo Zhaomu asked slowly, after getting the news, Su Zican immediately returned to the mansion to convene the ministers to discuss, Duanmujian's words seemed to make them see hope again. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Now they have to clean up the mess of Guannei Dao, and they also have to beware of the barbarians in Hedong Road going south, even if they can extort money again, it will take years to recover, so as long as we withdraw General Luo's soldiers and horses, the Jia Dynasty will not regard us as a thorn in the flesh, and Shuzhong can still enjoy peace." Su Zican was convinced of Duanmujian's words, indeed Luo Zhaoyuan's position was really a little embarrassing, only two or three hundred miles away from the capital, if it was a different place, I am afraid he would not be at ease.

That Luo Zhaoyuan was originally sent out to attack the capital and take Xu Shiyong, and of course the place where the army was stationed had to choose the most threatening position to the capital, but in the past few years, there had been a large army stationed in the capital and Gyeonggi Province, and Luo Zhaoyuan did not find a suitable opportunity, and occasionally occupied one or two cities and quickly gave up; But despite this, the presence of him and his tens of thousands of soldiers and horses is still a huge threat to the capital and Gyeonggi Province.

"It's easy to say that the army is withdrawn, but I'm afraid it's not appropriate to cede Shannan Dongdao, right?" Luo Zhaomu said hesitantly, Luo Zhaoyuan is his clansman, of course he doesn't want to see Luo Zhaoyuan die under the swords and guns of the Jiazhou army, it would be better to be able to transfer him back to Shuzhong, and with the help of this rare general in Shu, he may be able to overpower Su Zican and taste the taste of being in charge of a country's government, but the matter of cutting land is very important, and he must not easily take a stand.

"Now that the troops stationed in Shannan Dongdao have returned, what's the use of keeping Shannan Dongdao?" A courtier from Su Zican's family retorted, what he said also made sense, without a large army garrison, Shannan Dongdao is like a woman who has stripped off her clothes and has no defense, and it is only a matter of time before she is eaten by the Jia Dynasty, so why give the Jia Dynasty an excuse to use troops because of these things?

Moreover, the land of Shannan East Province is barren and the output is not much, and in recent years, there have been a group of thieves, and gradually the cost of maintaining the stability of Shannan East Road even exceeds the taxes collected, plus Shannan East Road does not have a few important ministers who are qualified to speak in the court, so they do not have the slightest psychological burden on the loss of Shannan East Road, but hope that the Jia Dynasty can be trapped by the quagmire of Shannan East Road, and there is no spare energy to covet the land in Shuzhong.

"Of course, Shannan East Road can be abandoned, but I am afraid that the Jia Dynasty will gain an inch, and then ask us for Shannan West Road, Qianzhong Road and Jiannan Road!" Su Shaoyou was young and vigorous, and seeing that everyone was in favor of cutting land and paying money for peace, he couldn't help but sarcastically say, if it was that time, what should they do?

"If they want to completely subdue Shannan Dongdao, it will take them at least three or five years of effort, and during this time, they will have to divide their energy to deal with the affairs of Kannai Province and Hedong Province! I'm afraid it will be another situation then! Su Zican said righteously, "The Jia Dynasty has been perverse and mistreats the gentry, and the gentry in the world have been patient for a long time, and in order to settle the affairs of Guannei Road, Shannan East Road and Hedong Road as soon as possible, this Jia Dynasty will definitely increase the exploitation of the gentry; Since ancient times, those who have treated the gentry harshly and enjoyed the country for a long time can there be? They can still rely on the sharpness of their armor to barely maintain the situation, but as long as one person rises up, the gentry of the world will definitely respond at the same time. ”

Su Zican analyzed the current situation of the Jia Dynasty according to his own inherent understanding, he always felt that the new ruling structure of the Jia Dynasty was not stable, and all the representatives of the gentry class here nodded yes when they heard the words, they also thought that the progress of the Jia Dynasty would not last long, so since it was not a good deal to give up a piece of land that was useless to himself and win valuable time for himself?

"It's so good, drag down the Jia Dynasty with the land of Shannan Dongdao, let them mess up first, and then we can watch the enemy defeat themselves in Shu!" Luo Zhaomu also gradually relented.

"General Luo has been guarding Shannan Dongdao for many years, and he has indeed worked hard, so he should accept the reward and return to Yizhou to recuperate, as for the soldiers and horses under his command, let's take pictures of Qianzhong Road for the time being! Over the years, the Tusi of Qianzhong Dao has been restless, just so that they can see the strength of our strong army in Shuzhong. Before Luo Zhaomu could be happy, Su Zican lightly deprived Luo Zhaoyuan of his military power and separated him from the soldiers.

This excuse was so bright that Luo Zhaomu had nothing to say, so he had to put away the ambition that had just emerged, and forced a smile to thank Su Zican for taking care of their Luo family.

A few days later, Duanmujian was summoned to the palace of the king of Shu again, this time there were fewer courtiers waiting in the palace, all of them were powerful factions in charge of Shu, after some temptation, Su Zican finally forced Duanmujian to retract his words of persuasion and show his true purpose.

The two sides engaged in a heated debate on this issue, and finally reached an agreement: Luo Zhaoyuan and his army immediately withdrew from Shannan Dongdao to prove that Shuzhong had no coveting of the capital and Gyeonggi Province; In addition, in order to completely dispel the concerns of the Jia Dynasty and congratulate Li You on his ascension to the throne as emperor, Shuzhong was willing to cede Shannan Dongdao to the Jia Dynasty, and sent 200,000 taels of silver, 100,000 horses of Shu brocade, and 200,000 stones of grain to congratulate; After the above agreement was completed in Shuzhong, the Jia Dynasty no longer asked Shuzhong to surrender, and the king of Shu could still enjoy peace in Shuzhong.

Now that the agreement has been reached, Su Zican and the others finally put their minds at ease, and repeatedly kept Duanmujian to stay in Shu for a few more days, feasting and drinking every day, and giving gifts constantly, Duanmujian smiled and accepted them one by one, and at the same time took the opportunity of the banquet to observe the relationship between these important ministers in Shuzhong.

The news was transmitted back to the capital, Li You was overjoyed, he didn't expect this Duanmu to have this ability, some of them drove away Luo Zhaoyuan's tens of thousands of troops with a knife and a gun, and took Shannan Dongdao, with this territory, it will be more convenient for the Jia Dynasty to attack Shuzhong in the future, and Luo Zhaoyuan was also transferred back to Yizhou, and the border is missing such a general, it can really be described as self-destruction of the Great Wall!

"Your Majesty, it can be seen that the ministers in Shuzhong are all short-sighted and unenterprising, and when the court recovers in a few years, it must be easy to win Shuzhong!" The ministers congratulated Li You one after another, and they already regarded Shuzhong as a thing in their pockets.
