Volume 2 The Rise of Jingzhou Chapter 381 - Jingzhou and Yongliang

"Your Majesty...."

Jia Xu interrupted Liu Xie's memories again, and after Liu Xie coughed lightly, he nodded slightly towards Jia Xu.

"Jia Gong, did I get distracted again just now.... Lately, this mind has been a little bit wrong... I don't know where I think of it.

I also hope that Jia Gong will not be surprised. ”

"Your Majesty laughed, Your Majesty has worked hard for the future of my Han, and this is why I have such a appearance.

Obviously, we should be grateful and relieved to Your Majesty, instead of letting Your Majesty be so sad, this should be Your Majesty not to blame us.

Your Majesty can't say that, Your Majesty can't say that..."

Looking at Jia Xu, who had become polite again, Liu Xie also showed a slight smile, and then let him continue to talk.

"I actually feel a little tired, and I still hope that Jia Gong..."

"The old minister understands!" At this time, Jia Xu looked at Liu Xie's tired face, and knew that he couldn't continue to toss.

He saluted directly to Liu Xie, and then continued to talk to Liu Xie.

"Your Majesty, in fact, the meaning that the old minister wants to express is very simple.

Even if it was Taiwei Duan back then, he killed the Qianghu in the land of Yongliang to the point of blood, even if Taiwei Duan had already achieved that point.

But the chaos in this desolate land never stopped.

If it is just the character problem of those Qianghu in the Yongliang Land in the northwest, then they don't respect my Han's virtue towards him.

They should also be afraid of the deterrence that my big man brings to them.

But none.

Whether it was Captain Duan back then, or General Dong Zhongying and General Dong later, or the national thief Li Dao Guo Yan, or Ma Teng who has surrendered to His Majesty now, and Han Sui who is still breathing.

They all have great prestige in this desolate land in the northwest, and they have made countless Qianghu trust them, willing to serve them and even die.

But even so, they still can't completely recover this desolate land, and they can only choose to cooperate with each other.

Or even... They are more unbearable from generation to generation.

They have gone from fear to respect, and if they lack an ally who is fearful, then they are not a good ally.

This is also why after Dong Zhuo, after Li Dao and Guo Yan, the Central Plains Junjie people are looking down on those fierce generals from the northwest more and more.

Because these people are really not worthy of their respect.

Even Yongliang is not afraid, and the people of the Central Plains are even more fearless.

But now His Majesty wants them to become His Majesty's vassals, wants to get the land of this desolate land, and wants to make those Qianghu available to His Majesty.

Then this must be faced!

How did they get Qianghu's help, and how could we make Qianghu obedient?

In fact, it is very simple, that is, to let Qianghu live!

Let everyone in the Northwest Cool Land live...

Whether it is Qianghu, the Han people in this desolate land, even those many countries in the Western Regions.

They didn't rebel to do anything to our big man, they didn't have the guts to do it, and naturally they didn't have the ability.

There is only one thing they can do, and that is to let the people of the Yongliang Land, so that those of them who are in the Yongliang Land can live.

That's all...."

"What Jia Gong wants to say, in fact, it's still the word food!"

Liu Xie, who was full of exhaustion, seemed to have finally figured out the whole thing, and finally understood what Jia Xu wanted to say.

"Your Majesty seems to understand..."

"Hmm..."After a short silence, Liu Xie finally nodded slowly, "This grain is indeed very important.

There are only a handful of places that are good at farming in the cool land, and there are actually only a handful of places that can graze.

Most of them are still in the hands of those Qianghu, and if we want to cultivate, we will have to destroy their grasslands.

But if they do this, even if they are included in the territory of my Han and become the people of my Han, they will still not be able to live.

There are so many aliens that they have to choose this way in order to survive.

And if I want to get the cool land in the future, I want to get a stable northwest rear, so that they can become my continuous source of soldiers.

Then the only thing to do is to give them a chance to live.

Or rather, give them hope for their lives, that is, food ....

Let them have enough to eat, so that they will not starve to death, so that they have food, clothing, and even a house to shelter from the wind and rain.

Then they naturally quieted down.

Even...."

"Even in order to be able to keep their current life, they will desperately help Your Majesty.

Because they all know very well that only His Majesty can give them this.

It's been a hundred years.... These hundreds of years of chaos not only exhausted my life, but also made their lives very difficult.

If they want to live better, then they must fight hard.

Since Your Majesty has given them hope, then they will be grateful to Dade and loyal to Your Majesty, knowing that this hope is so hard-won..."

Liu Xie was very moved by what Jia Xu said, and Liu Xie also knew that it was not a lie.

Because Liu Xie really knew that in the chaos of the later generations, the reason why the former Qin was able to rise rapidly was inseparable from those people in the Yongliang Land in the northwest.

And the reason why he was able to get the support of the other party actually relied on this.

This is the only way for him, and the only way he can change his current situation is this way.

After thinking about this, Liu Xie also understood the next thing.

"So, the reason why Jia Gong is obsessed with Jingzhou is because of Jingzhou's grain?"

"What Your Majesty said is extremely true, it is the grain of Jingzhou!" Jia Xu smiled helplessly, "Actually, for the two of them in Yongliang, the best place should not be Jingzhou.

It should be the land of Xichuan and Hanzhong, when Emperor Taizu Gao relied on the land of Bashu to feed Yongzhou, and then continued to recruit soldiers and horses from Yongzhou.

With the food of the land of Bashu to feed, it finally achieved this hegemony!

But...."

"But how?" Liu Xie was a little puzzled at this time, because this routine was actually thought of by someone in this era.

But it was clear that the man failed in the end.

It's the defeat of the grain!

"Hey....." Jia Xu simply sighed at this time, "As a result, when Empress Lu was in the past, a dragon in Wudu County turned over and completely destroyed this road!" ”
