Chapter 669: Collusion

Spring ploughing in Kanto has started again.

Wang Meng went on a killing spree in Liangzhou, and an unexpected consequence was that all the Kwantung clans became honest.

The Cui family, the Zheng family, the Lu family, and the Liu family all closed their doors, and the once arrogant and domineering sons of the gentlemen also disappeared.

And Wang Meng really rejected Zheng's marriage.

Li Yue then issued an edict prohibiting intermarriage between the wealthy clans such as Cui, Zheng, Liu, Lu, Gao, Liu, Xue, and Pei, as well as officials of 2,000 stones.

"Why doesn't Your Majesty follow Han's edict? The children of the clan, regardless of their grandchildren, can share the family wealth equally. Lu Qing suggested.

"You are from a scholar clan, don't you know the doorway?" Li Yue said with a smile.

"When the Lu clan was not in the Han Dynasty, the ministers also suffered from hunger and cold in their early years."

"Then why can you still enter the court as an official?"

"Minister, minister...... I can't tell. ”

The strength of the scholars lies not in the wealth and property, but in the monopoly of knowledge.

After studying hard for a few years, after the imperial examination or the entrance examination, he can quickly occupy important positions by virtue of his prestige.

Power can generate momentum, potential energy generates wealth, and with power, family wealth and land are not easy to come by?

And even if the decree of Tui En is promulgated, it is another matter whether the nobles will listen to it or not, and the patriarchal law and family law of the people are far stronger than the national law.

There are right policies and countermeasures, and behind closed doors, the decrees of the imperial court cannot control them.

"Your Majesty, this is a secret piece sent by Lu Xun from the East China Sea." The eunuch reported outside the palace.

Lu Xun burned, killed, and plundered in the Japanese country, and his career became more and more prosperous, and he was able to transport five or six thousand young and strong slaves to Liaodong every year.

The island of Tamna locked up Silla, Baekje, Wakoku, and Goguryeo.

Li Yue opened the fold, it turned out that Lu Xun found two gold and silver mines in the west of the Wa Kingdom, according to what he said, the mineral deposits are very large, and they can be picked up directly on the ground, and it is recommended that the Liaodong Navy come to a big one and directly take the western part of the Wa Kingdom.

"What do you think?" Li Yue handed Lu Xun's secret recital to Lu Qing.

"The minister thinks that there are too many troops and it costs money and food, so it is better to slowly figure it out, and use the navy army to pretend to be pirates and enter the Japanese country.

Li Yue was stunned, no wonder the Lu family can produce a Lu Xun, this Lu Qing is not simple, killing people and setting fires, extremely skilled......

Daliang is now orthodox in the world, and he must take into account his image in everything he does, and he also needs a justifiable excuse.

Otherwise, if he attacked overseas for no reason, Li Yue would definitely be put on a hat of reckless military force.

If it's a pirate, you don't have so many scruples.

They can do whatever they want, and it looks better in the "international view", after all, the big beam also has to take care of the ideas of his subordinate countries, and everything must be a meal.

"The Hainan Aviation Division and the Liaodong Navy have been set up for so many years, and they are mules and horses, and they should be pulled out for a walk."

Under the influence of Lu Xun and Lu Qing, Li Yue's heart moved, and he suddenly had a way to deal with the best of both worlds for the Shi clan.

The Shi clan is a cancer in Middle-earth, but if it is in the border areas or overseas, it is the defender, pioneer, and propagator of Chinese civilization.

As long as the stakes are large enough, these people will definitely take risks.

The warrior clan is a double-edged sword, the key depends on how to use it, but also how to guide it.

But it's still a vague idea, and the timing is not right.

Daliang's extermination of Tuoba Shi Yijian, taking the Western Regions, and unifying Jiangdong are inseparable from the support of the powerful men of the sergeant clan of the country.

The strength of the noble clan is also part of the national strength.

The road has to be taken step by step, the steps are big, and it will not be good if you pull the egg like Emperor Yang of Sui.

The current strategy is to recuperate, restore national strength, and then communicate with the Western Regions, attack the grassland, destroy the Dai Kingdom, and then gather the power of the Western Regions and the grassland to invade Jiangdong in the south and dominate the world.

As long as the Western Regions surrendered and returned to the Liang State, they would be able to destroy Tuoba Shiyijian within three or five years.

Within ten years, Jiangdong was annexed and the world was unified.

There are talented people from generation to generation, each leading the way for hundreds of years.

Fifteen years later, who knows if there will be one or two bulls in Jiangdong who will turn the tide?

Although Li Yue's strategic concept is good, nothing in the world can be smooth sailing.

Before the spring ploughing was over, Tuoba Shi Yijian's ranger went south.

A law has been formed on both sides, and in autumn and winter, Li Yue sent the Black Cloud cavalry north to "hunt", and burned the grassland by the way.

In the spring and summer, Tuoba Shiyijian went south in large numbers, plundering the border lands, destroying cultivated fields, and burning villages.

Liao, You, and, Dai, Shuo, Liang Zhuzhou suffered from it, can rob it, can burn it, in the local Xianbei old department of the inside and outside of the combination, but also broke through a county town in Daizhou, the whole city of the old and weak were killed, young men and women were taken captive.

The Black Cloud Army arrived, and the Daiguo Ranger had already left.

Li Yue was furious and deposed all the assassins and governors of Daizhou.

Tuoba Shiyijian is rolling bigger and bigger on the grassland, and he can obviously feel that the strength of Daiguo is getting stronger and stronger.

Although the equipment is not as good as that of the Liang army, there is also a lot of iron armor, and the swords and spears sent back are also quite sharp.

"Where did Tuoba Shi Yijian get these things?" Li Yue picked up a long knife that had been captured from the Dai Guo Rangers.

It is slightly longer than the ring head knife, and the blade is slightly curved, which is not as exquisite as the ring head knife, and it is somewhat shoddy, but it is enough to deal with the people and the town army.

Compared to before, it is a huge improvement.

The scimitar is good for slashing and is suitable for cavalry charges.

The straight blade is suitable for foot slashing, and the cavalry slashing is easy to break.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, Huaxia also had a scimitar, named Wu Hook, but it was gradually eliminated by the Central Plains battlefield.

This thing is by no means a product of the Central Plains, but it is a very vigilant thing for the country to be able to build iron armor and swords and spears, which requires a certain number of mature craftsmen, wrought iron technology, and mines.

Daiguo has been entrenched in Daijun and Yunzhong for nearly a hundred years, absorbing a large number of Central Plains craftsmen.

"Looking at its shape, it is either from Goguryeo, or from the Western Regions." Chang Wei arched his hand.

"Western Regions!" Li Yue frowned.

The Xiongnu were strong and would inevitably invade the Western Regions, as were the case with the Turks and Uighurs in history.

The rise of the country will definitely have to wrestle with the Great Liang in the Western Regions.

Wang Meng made such a big move in Liangzhou, and killed Tuoba Shiyijian's own brother Tuoba Gu, 20,000 cavalry, and the armor did not return, which must have stimulated him.

Of course, with the current strength of the country, it will definitely not be possible to annex the Western Regions, and there are several powerful countries in the Western Regions, but it is still possible to collude with these powerful countries and resist the Great Liang together.

After all, no one wants to kneel under someone else's crotch as a grandson these days.

Even the gang in Jiangdong knew how to resist, not to mention the barbaric countries of the Western Regions.

Li Yue couldn't help but worry about Liu Ying and his party, the situation was more complicated and dangerous than expected.

It's been almost a year since Liangzhou was recovered, and there was no movement in the Western Regions, so it was really unreasonable, even a barbaric tribe like Tuyuhun knew to come to say hello and be familiar.

Since the Yongjia Rebellion, China has declined for fifty or sixty years, and I don't know how many people have changed in the Western Regions.
