Chapter 317: Surprising Win!

Before the war started, Yuwen Shihong had already shown an inevitable attitude towards the recovery of Guizhou and Ningzhou, which made everyone present unconsciously straighten their waists.

Most of Yuwen Shihong's words have no opinion, but there is only one ......

Instead of raging the city to guard against traitors, he actually associates with traitors?

This...... Aren't you afraid of giving other people who have the heart of rebellion to create a false impression in their interactions?

Thought that rebellion would not invite disaster!

It will even make the traitor think that Yuwen Shihong is not capable of quelling the rebellion!

Xiao Renchang pondered for a while, thinking that Yuwen Shihong should have his own thoughts, so he said quietly:

"Your Majesty, seeing your resolute attitude, I guess this matter is on the same time, and it will be inevitable."

"Weichen and the others will prepare immediately, and when the recovery is imminent, they will immediately regain the dominance of Gui and Ning, and calm the people!"

Yuwen Shihong smiled and waved his hand, indicating that you don't have to be in a hurry:

"I said, you stay in Beijing for a month, and you can rest and relax, after all, Gui and Ning are thousands of miles away from Chang'an, and you Aiqing are in a secluded place, so it is inevitable that you will experience bitter cold all year round."

"In the past two years, Gui, Ning and other places in southern Xinjiang have achieved mediocre state governance, and I know that it is not that you Aiqing is not in good governance, but that the situation in which you are located is harsh and barren, and it is difficult to achieve results without spending a lot of money."

"And whether to use a heavy amount of money has to be weighed again and again, just because after the heavy money is thrown out, I am afraid that it will not be able to be recovered for a long time."

"There are some decrees that need to be adapted to local conditions, otherwise they cannot change the appearance of a place."

"In short, the rebellion also reminded me that since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, southern Xinjiang has been in a position of being despised or even ignored."

"A harsh living environment will always breed a divided soil."

"You can rest in peace, and come back in mid-February, and then I will discuss with you Aiqing in the long term about the governance of southern Xinjiang."

After the magistrates bowed and retreated, Xiao Renchang walked on the way out of the palace, pondering Yuwen Shihong's words.

Ignoring the vigilance of the city defense, it ...... Actively trade with the Lingnan traitors?

Yuwen Shihong is not afraid to fatten these traitors? Will it be even more difficult to clean up then?

"Lord Xiao, what do you think of Your Majesty's words?"

At this time, Tian Sitong, the Ningzhou assassin who left the palace side by side with Xiao Renchang, frowned and said to Xiao Renchang.

Xiao Renchang's brows were also furrowed for a long time, in his opinion, now is the best time to recover Guining, or even go all the way south to take the entire Lingnan.

Maybe Yuwen Shihong is worried about not wanting to meet Chen Guobing for the time being.

As long as the forbidden army of the Zhou State did not set foot in the south of Guining, the war in the Lingnan area had nothing to do with the Zhou State, and it was a secession and turmoil caused by local traitors.

In this way, Chen Guo did not blame Zhou for violating the reasons for the rapprochement talks, the war was caused by separatist forces, and it had nothing to do with Zhou State.

Chen Guo, who has always avoided war, wants to negotiate with the object of negotiation, not Zhou Guo, but the group of separatist thieves led by Yang Jian.

Fortunately, after more than two years of assassination in Guizhou, Xiao Renchang also felt that the war was not a good thing, whether it was a war or a war, it was the people who suffered.

He very much recognized Yuwen Shihong's way of governing the country outside and at home.

Seeing that Xiao Renchang only thought to himself and did not respond, Tian Sitong touched his beard, and said in a cautious voice:

"I suspect that His Majesty's intentions are threefold."

"Huh?" Tian Sitong's words aroused Xiao Renchang's curiosity:

"Why don't you elaborate?"

"You and I, as magistrates in southern Xinjiang, both know the area of Lingnan and Wuling (Jiaozhou), this is the weakest time, if we can recover Guining smoothly and continue to the south in one go, we can take advantage of the weakest time in Lingnan and Wuling, so that I can make the southern Xinjiang of the Great Zhou Dynasty in one fell swoop, and open up to the south."

"But Your Majesty's consideration is not the size of the territory, but every time you take a land, you must completely take the place from the aspect of peace and security, which is an effective strategy."

"Let's look at the past, when His Majesty personally conquered the Qi country, the front of the army opened up the territory and expanded the territory, and the civil officials and officials arrived almost simultaneously with the logistics footsteps of the army.

"Then there is the logical state and county system, as if there had never been a war, and those places that were taken belonged to the Great Zhou before, so natural and peaceful."

"Therefore, I see, the purpose of His Majesty's conquest is not to expand his territory, but to be as His Majesty said, he wants the people."

"Only when there are people can there be prosperous local states."

After listening to such a large number of words that had already been concluded in his heart, Xiao Renchang's brows turned to frown as if speechless:

"I know what you said, and there are three deep meanings of Your Majesty, which three are you talking about?"

Tian Sitong said slowly while thinking about it:

"First, it is nothing more than not wanting to have a head-on conflict with Chen Guo and cause unnecessary troop consumption."

"There is also a ...... The deep meaning of paralyzing Chen Guo made Chen Guo relax his vigilance against my Zhou State and instead focus on the matter of the Lingnan Rebellion. ”

"Originally, I didn't think so, but His Majesty actually said that after Guining was recovered, he would not defend the city, but also respond to strengthening trade with Lingnan."

In other words...... Your Majesty seems to be quite happy to see the chaos in Lingnan, the result of trade is a rich place, if Lingnan is rich, it is the traitor Yang Jian who is rich. ”

"Yang Jian doesn't dare to be rude to me frequently, so as not to attract annihilation, so Yang Jian's eyes will definitely be on the east, and the vulnerable Chen State shown by the actual combat results!"

"Ouch, Your Majesty is clever! Sandpiper and clam compete for fisherman's profit, and my Da Zhou is the fisherman! ”

After Tian Sitong figured out Yuwen Shihong's thoughts, he couldn't help but be so excited that his face was full of red:

"Your Majesty is brilliant! Clever! ”

"Once we figure it out, we will be able to carry out His Majesty's decree with peace of mind!"

Xiao Renchang is also suddenly cheerful, if this is really the case......

It's still a good thing that trade is rich and traitors? It is equivalent to not putting down the rebellion, but still supporting the traitors behind the scenes to continue to weaken the Chen State.

So in the long run, what Yuwen Shihong means...... Hiss!

Don't you just want Lingnan, or you want Chen Guo?!

"That's not right, even if Chen Guo is vulnerable, then, if Yang Jian, a traitor, is strong and strong, then I will clean him up in Da Zhou, won't it take more effort?"

"Hey, you guy," Tian Sitong claimed to be much smarter than Xiao Renchang:

"No wonder Your Majesty asked me to rest in Beijing for a month, it turned out to be so that we could understand a series of decisions made by the center."

"Do you know that the Northern Expeditionary Army has already been launched?"

"Since ancient times, the threat to our Central Plains has never been in southern Xinjiang, but in northern Mobei."

"If you want to completely settle down, of course, you have to focus on the north!"

"And at the same time, we can also think of ways to make the enemies surrounding southern Xinjiang contain each other, lose the opportunity to continue to sit on the big side, and continue to be in a state of attrition!"

"Your Majesty is a genius!"
