Return to the Three Kingdoms with the Empire System

Chapter 424 Taking Yizhou Lightly
Although Ye Mo is no longer in the officialdom, no one thought that Ye Mo was joking when he said these words.

The Ye family's influence on the whole big man is absolutely extraordinary.

It can be said that before the appearance of the Ye family, the Yuan family with four generations and three princes was the family most likely to replace the Han Dynasty and establish another dynasty.Since the appearance of the Ye family, the Yuan family has completely degenerated.

Although the prestige of the Ye family in this period was not as good as that of the Yuan family before, some words of the Ye family were enough to influence the court's decision.

What's more, what Ye Mo was talking about was outside the territory of the great Han, and the territory conquered by Ma Chao belonged to his fiefdom.

What is a fief?It is the tax paid from this area, and part of it will be distributed to the court.How could the court refuse such a good thing?

"Patriarch Ye seriously?" After Ye Mo finished speaking, Guo Jia asked before Ma Chao could speak.

Since Guo Jia has been with Ma Chao for a long time, he naturally knows how popular Ma Chao is among the Qiang people.

Among other things, it can be clearly seen from the number of cavalry and soldiers that Ma Chao brought back to Yizhou in Xiliang: Even though Ma Chao is no longer in Xiliang, the Ma family is still majestic to the Qiang people. .

As long as Ye Mo promises that what he says is true, then most of the Qiang people's territory will become Ma Chao's fiefdom.After all, although some Qiang people live on the territory of the Han Dynasty, the vast majority of the Qiang people still live outside the territory of the Han Dynasty.

Ye Mo glanced at Guo Jia, and smiled immediately: "Mr. Feng Xiao, have you ever said what Ye Mo said as a joke?"

Although Ye Mo didn't answer Guo Jia's question directly, such a simple rhetorical question made Guo Jia and everyone present understand: since Ye Mo said such a thing, it would definitely not be a lie.

After getting Ye Mo's affirmative answer, Ma Chao and Guo Jia also looked at each other.

Although Ye Mo promised to allow Ma Chao to conquer territories other than the Great Han as his own fiefdoms, in the same way, there was another meaning in Ye Mo's words that Ma Chao and Guo Jia heard.

Ma Chao has a high reputation among the Qiang people, and Guo Jia doesn't believe that Ye Mo doesn't know this.But even so, Ye Mo still said these words.

If this is the case, it can only mean that Ye Mo has already given his bottom line.Ma Chao can live and get a lot of nourishment.However, if Ma Chao still wants to continue to be the local emperor in Yizhou, then Ye Mo can only lead troops to quell the rebellion.

Although it is said that there are more than [-] troops in Yizhou, after the enemy of these people is Ye Mo, the number loses its meaning.

It's not that Ye Mo is so powerful, but that Ma Chao, Guo Jia and others have already given Ye Mo a myth in their own minds.

Since Ye Mo started to lead the army, he has never been defeated.Such an achievement, in the eyes of Ma Chao and the others, is incredible.

As the saying goes, victory and defeat are commonplace in military affairs.Even Han Xin, who used soldiers like a god, had many failures in his career.

But looking at Ye Mo now, no matter how bad the situation is, Ye Mo always has a way to win.Since ancient times, China has been able to achieve this level, and there is only one soldier, Sun Wu.

But who is Sun Wu, that is China's well-deserved soldier saint.The art of war written by him is a must-read book for generals of later generations.

It's just a pity that although Ye Mo had already invented movable type printing, Ye Mo still didn't spread it out for strategic readings like "Sun Tzu's Art of War".

"Uncle, my nephew has been in Yizhou for nearly a year, and now I am used to the customs and customs of Yizhou. If I ask my nephew to leave now, my nephew will be very reluctant." After a moment of silence, Ma Chao , said to Ye Mo.

How could Ye Mo fail to understand the meaning of Ma Chao's words, but how could Ye Mo allow Ma Chao to continue to stay in Yizhou and develop with peace of mind?
The reason why Ye Mo asked Ma Chao to lay down a territory for himself was because Yizhou was in the land of Western Shu, and the terrain was rugged, easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Secondly, it was because Ye Mo understood that if he relied solely on his own system, it would be difficult to realize his original grand ideal of "everywhere the sun and the moon shine, and wherever the rivers reach, is Han."

Moreover, according to Ma Chao's personality, it might be very difficult for Ma Chao to submit to Ye Mo.

The reason why Ma Chao in his previous life recognized Liu Bei as the master was because Ma Chao had never been able to avenge his father, so he had to rely on the strength of others.

But in this life, Ma Chao not only personally avenged his father, but also owned his own foundation. How could Ma Chao willingly bow his head as a minister?

"Nephew Meng Qixian's words are different. Thinking about the great achievements of General Fubo who guarded Xiliang and pacified one side for the Han Dynasty. After that, the Ma family also stayed in Xiliang to inherit the ancestral business. If the nephew prefers Yizhou, happy If you don’t think about your ancestors, how will you face your ancestors in the future?”

In short, no matter what, Ye Mo wanted to persuade Ma Chao to leave Yizhou.Even if it can't be done, then Ma Chao's behavior should be belittled to gain a reputation for himself to send troops in the future.

Guo Jia was also frightened by Ye Mo's words.If Ma Chao doesn't listen to Ye Mo's advice, he will be putting himself in an unfilial and unjust situation!

"Sure enough, losing to this kind of person is not unfair to me." Looking at Ye Mo who said "I think about you", a layer of cold sweat broke out on Guo Jia's back.

After Ma Chao heard what Ye Mo said, he turned to look at Guo Jia, intending to listen to Guo Jia's opinion.

At this time, Guo Jia also thought clearly, if he didn't follow what Ye Mo said, Ma Chao might not even be able to keep Yizhou.Therefore, when he saw Ma Chao looking over, Guo Jia nodded calmly.

Seeing Guo Jia nodding, Ma Chao didn't hesitate immediately. "What my uncle said is absolutely true, and my nephew almost feels ashamed of his ancestors. My uncle is so kind to me, but my nephew has no way to repay him. I can only rush back to Xiliang with his soldiers as soon as possible to make new contributions to the Great Khan."

What Ma Chao said was equivalent to saying that he was going to give up Yizhou.

After Ye Mo saw that Ma Chao had made a decision, he also nodded. "It's a good thing that nephew Meng Qi knows how to turn back when he lost his way. Uncle looks forward to one day fighting side by side with nephew Meng Qi and making an indelible contribution to the great man."

Regarding Ye Mo's words, Ma Chao only regarded Ye Mo's joke.It was only now that Ye Mo forced Ma Chao to leave the fertile land of Yizhou, so how could the two have the chance to fight side by side in the future?
However, these words seemed like an agreement to Ye Mo.Others don't know, so would Ye Mo not know?

That unknown danger is like a sword of Damocles, reminding Ye Mo all the time, never spend too much energy on the internal consumption of the big man.Always remember that only by unifying the strength of the big men, will there be a better chance of winning in the face of that disaster.
