"Han, Hanzhong doesn't need to garrison so many troops at all, the only place in Shu that needs to be heavily guarded is Nanzhong, let Huo Yi lead 30,000 elites to garrison here, appease the local barbarians, and be ready to go to Jiaozhou at any time, this is enough."

"The most important thing in Shu is those checkpoints, Yong'an and Sword Pavilion need to stay behind the army, and the rest of the cities, just like the counties of the Central Plains."

"In addition, in addition, Wudu County needs some soldiers here, because this place is close to the Waiqiang, and the Waiqiang may enter and exit from Gansong here."

"The governance of the Yongliang Legion can be moved forward, since Shu has been pacified, there will be no turmoil in Yongzhou, and the core of governance should be placed in Liangzhou, Guzang Jincheng, Zhangye Jiuquan and other places, all of which can properly station troops."

"Since the establishment of the Western Regions Governor's Mansion, the road has been intercepted and destroyed by Waiqianghu several times, and the merchants have been looted many times, ensuring the safety of the road from the Western Regions Governor's Mansion to Liangzhou is what we need to do next."

"There is a great possibility of turmoil in Shu, but since Your Majesty has realized this, even if the turmoil is launched, it will not be to the extent that it will sweep the whole of Bashu and make the temple look sideways."

Deng Ai was pointing to the map in front of him at this moment and told the many officials of the Ministry of War.

Chen Qian sat on the top seat, listening to Deng Ai's analysis, and his heart was extremely complicated.

There is nothing wrong with what Deng Ai said, but there is only one point, I didn't let you be in charge of these things at all!!

After Deng Ai arrived at the Ministry of War, Chen Qian didn't arrange any errands for him in order to suppress him, and said that he would familiarize himself with all the things in the Ministry of War, in fact, he also wanted Deng Ai to understand who was the one who said the count.

But he didn't expect that Deng Ai's understanding of familiar things might be a little different from what he thought.

In Deng Ai's opinion, to be familiar with all things, that is, to ask what the military department is doing, and then solve these things!

So, when Chen Qian gathered everyone to discuss major matters, Deng Ai suddenly came out and began to say many of his thoughts.

The first is the re-planning of the Yongliang Army.

The purpose of the establishment of the Yongliang Legion was to deal with the Shu State, but now that the Shu State has perished, the responsibilities of the legion will naturally be redivided.

Deng Ai believes that the administrative center should be moved forward and the core area should be changed from Yong to Liang.

Chen Qian listened to Deng Ai's narration, and actually wanted to interrupt him or refute him.

But Deng Ai is difficult to deal with because his speeches have always been very reasonable, and he will not be untargeted.

Just like the original plan to attack Jianye, it seems a bit outrageous, and it will fast forward to the decisive battle, but if you think about it carefully, this is definitely the best way to force Wu Guo to return to the army, even if Wu Guo clearly knows that Cao Wei is just acting and may not really want to attack, but they will still come back.

This is the power of Deng Ai.

The same is true now, Deng Ai's suggestions to Shu and the Yongliang Army are very pertinent.

Many officials of the Ministry of War thought about his words in their hearts, and they couldn't help but nod slightly.

They all felt that they could move forward according to Deng Ai's ideas.

Deng Ai looked at the map again at this moment, and he said: "The weight of the future is not in the west, but in the south and in the north. ”

"The south side is mainly because of the state of Wu, so there is no need to say more."

"There is still a war in Jingnan today, but the situation is gradually becoming clear, Jiaozhi County revolted, which made the idea of the commander of Wu State blocking Wang Ji in Wuling completely failed, and several counties around Wuling were originally gathered to defend themselves at the border with Wuling."

"There was a fire in Jiaozhi County, and there was an emptiness behind them, which was completely exposed to Jiaozhou."

"Therefore, the commander of the State of Wu will definitely take the initiative to abandon Jingnan at this moment and set up a new defense line through Nanjun, and the strategy will change from preventing Wang Ji from going south to preventing Wang Ji from advancing east."

"In this way, we surrounded the state of Wu from three sides, and the situation in the country of Wu is like a fish in a pond, quietly waiting for death."

"For the time being, there is no need to talk about the things in the south, but what we want to talk about is the north."

Deng Ai looked at the many officials in front of him, for some reason, at this moment, Deng Ai entered that high-spirited stage again, and there were no more symptoms of stuttering, and he began to talk loudly about his new ideas.

"The most important problem in the north, Xianbei."

"Everyone!! Don't take it lightly!! ”

Deng Ai suddenly raised his voice when he saw these disapproving officials.

"Xianbei is the most important thing to worry about! The Duanbu Xianbei of Liaodong, their language is basically no different from ours, and their leaders have to study the classics, read the art of war, and learn the Five Classics! They learned to plow and smelt in Liaodong! ”

"They seem to be loyal to the Great Wei, but they are definitely not the Southern Xiongnu, how could their tribesmen have ever come to Luoyang in person? They are unwilling to be the Southern Huns, they have just learned to forbear, and they have learned to look for opportunities! ”

"Tuoba Xianbei in the north!"

"Their leaders have great contempt for many Hu leaders in the past, thinking that those people can only loot and kill, and they don't know the root of governing the world at all!!"

"Their leaders have begun to practice benevolence!! Isn't that the scariest thing ever?! ”

Deng Ai said solemnly: "Many people are even very happy, thinking that they are well educated, thinking that Xianbei people know etiquette, and the world will be peaceful!" ”

"But you must know that a tribe that only knows how to plunder and kill people, no matter how powerful it is, can only rise for a while, and is destined not to last long, but if they learn the scriptures and know the benevolent government, then their harm will not only be plundering."

"Wu did not know the truth of benevolence and forced their people to be forced to serve in the army, but the one in the north had already understood that they were not a greater threat than Wu. It's just because they don't have enough population, so what if they get enough of it? ”

"If you want to solve this matter, you can only defeat their tribes, kill their leaders, and place their people in batches in various parts of the Central Plains, so that they cannot communicate with each other"

The officials of the military department listened very seriously at the moment, and they were even a little relished.

Deng Ai was the first general to think that the Northern Expedition to Xianbei was going to be.

Deng Ai mentioned the Huhua of the people in the border area several times, which in the eyes of the ministers, was only because these Diao people were unwilling to pay taxes, but in Deng Ai's opinion, it was because their enemies had begun to grow rapidly.

Chen Qian finally couldn't help it at the moment.

"Duke Deng, this Xianbei has always been friendly with me, the Xianbei tribes in Liaodong are all loyal and willing to follow us to crusade against wrongdoing, and the Tuoba tribe in the north has never sent people to plunder our land, and has also taken the initiative to restrain their own army."

"Why do you have to think they're enemies?"

Deng Ai glanced at him and continued: "The Southern Xiongnu fought against Xianbei, but when the strength was equal, they were defeated by the other party. ”

"What does Gong Chen think is the reason for this?"

Chen Qian said very confidently: "The commanders of the five Xiongnu tribes are addicted to pleasure, they have not ridden a horse-drawn bow for a long time, and the generals under their command are also like this, living in the city, and the military affairs are deserted, so they have failed miserably. ”

"No, the right king who was the commander at that time was a commander who had participated in many wars, and had fought against many generals in the Central Plains.

"And the generals under his command at that time did not dare to be as slacking off as they are now, as for their people, they are still nomadic today, what is the difference from the past?"

"Even if it's a little bit worse, it shouldn't be a fiasco."

Chen Qian hesitated and asked, "That's probably because of the terrain." ”

Deng Ai smiled, and he said very confidently: "This is because the right virtuous king of the Southern Xiongnu is unpopular, while the leader of Tuoba is benevolent. ”

"The leader of the Tuoba reduced the taxes to be paid by the tribesmen, used light punishments to curb the nobles, promoted the low-level people with military merits, made the lords of the tribes familiar with the classics, and even took the initiative to help the poor tribes"

"In such a situation, his subordinates are willing to fight to the death for him, on the other hand, on the side of the Southern Xiongnu, their commanders only care about their own enjoyment, and do not care about the life and death of their subordinates at all, let alone give them any benefits, how can they not be defeated?"

"The reason why Xianbei can defeat the Huns is because they are more popular!"

Hearing Deng Ai's words, Chen Qian wanted to scold a ridiculous sentence.

Hu people still win the hearts of the people?

Are you crazy?

An official said with a smile at the moment: "What if he is more popular?" ”

Deng Ai squinted his eyes at the moment and said slowly: "If you win the hearts of the people, you will win the world." ”

"Deng Gong!!"

Chen Qian was almost about to call him by his first name.

Deng Ai's words made him a little unbearable, what do you mean? Can the Hu people win the hearts of the people more than us?

Deng Ai looked at the frightened crowd and said calmly: "I'm not saying that they are more popular than us, I'm just saying that they have learned how to fight for the world, and their harm is no less than that of Wu State." ”

"If they continue to stalemate with them because they have not plundered, in case of any turmoil in the future, then they can be stationed in the Central Plains by winning the hearts and minds of the people, and if they can promote meritorious people, punish those who make mistakes, and continue to implement benevolent government."

"Then Zhuo Lu is not the country of the Central Plains."

"Deng Gong is a little worried!"

Officials shook their heads, not appreciating Deng Ai's idea.

At this moment, the officials still treat the Hu people outside the Saiwai as robbers, they feel that these people do not know how to govern the world at all, and they will rob, kill, set fires, and run away when they are done.

They also did not think that these robbers could establish a state in the Central Plains.

This is probably because they didn't expect that there would be a Central Plains Dynasty that would actually lose to the Hu people outside the Saiwai in terms of winning people's hearts, but Deng Ai had already stared at these people to death, because he felt that these people had mastered the method of building the country.

This is no longer a robber, and if you deal with them from the previous point of view, you will definitely suffer a big loss.

Chen Qian narrowed his eyes, for the sake of military merits, he even blew Xianbei on, okay, you forced me, do you really think I can't debate you?!
