Liu Yu was unable to do practical control in the Western Regions.

We can only ensure that the influence of the local Hu people in the Western Regions continues to decline by constantly muddling the waters.

Ran Liang took Liu Yu's advice and set out on the journey to the West Sea of ​​Xiazhou the next day.

In order to show his trust in him, Liu Yu also asked Ran Liang to take away his eldest son Ran Min, who had already been studying.

He no longer needs any hostages, nor has he any hostages used for them.

Because Ran Liang has eight or nine sons, it is useless to keep such a so-called eldest son.

Just show your magnanimity and generosity directly.

"Your Majesty, the three generations of the Ran family will die after your Majesty's great cause to conquer the Western Regions, so as to repay Your Majesty's kindness for you!"

Before leaving, Ran Liang said with tears in his eyes.

Seeing him like this, Liu Yu's intention to be conspired and conspired was basically gone.

"You father and son are both loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty, but you must always remember that the grassland tribes under your command are not born loyal servants of the Han Dynasty."

"We must try our best to make them respect the reputation of Han from their hearts."

"Only in this way can we control the countries of the Western Regions where there is no advantage in numbers!"

The current areas controlled by the Chief of the Western Regions are only about half of the former Western Regions Protectorate.

The rest of the area has returned to a completely independent state.

Liu Yu's expectations for Ran Liang were naturally to use him to conquer those areas that had been freed from the control of the Changshi Mansion.

With Liu Yu's high hopes, Ran Liang took away all the families who stayed in Luoyang.

The same person took away was a genealogy of the Neihuang Ran clan.

From then on, Ran Liang and his son will set up a new house and separate from the family of the Huang Ran family.

This is the establishment of a branch.

Of course, these things are all trivial things for Liu Yu.

Now his most important thing has become a plan to conquer Jiangdong.

Since the death of Jin General Wang Dun, the heir Wang Ying and others who occupied Wuchang have become increasingly ineffective in controlling their subordinates.

Coupled with the pressure from Jiangzhou Governor Tao Kan, the situation in Jiangdong is actually very tilted towards Sima Rui.

After all, since Wang Dun's death, Wang Dao and others from the Wang family of Langya have opposed Wang Ying's inheritance of his power, which is also considered as a consideration for the overall situation in Jiangdong.

Liu Yu naturally could not sit idly by and watched Jiangdong complete internal coordination, and decided to accelerate the formulation of a plan to pacify Jiangdong.

"Your Majesty, the most critical thing to enter Jiangdong is to control the victory or defeat of the water battle. Only by gaining the initiative on the river can you choose the time and place of landing at will."

In the palace hall, Shen Chong, who had just arrived from Jingzhou, was explaining to Liu Yu the key points of crossing the river.

"Shen Qing, you are also a famous general in Jiangdong. You have half of the navy in Jingzhou. Are you not sure of winning?" Liu Yu asked.

In his impression, Shen Chong was a prominent clan in Jiangdong and was once a general under Wang Dun. He controlled the elite of the Jingzhou naval army. As long as the Han army was subsequently supplemented, wouldn’t it be easy to pacify Jiangdong?

When Shen Chong heard this, he immediately replied very respectfully.

"Report to Your Majesty, although I have some small experience in water wars and some Jingzhou soldiers are helping me, it depends on whom I fight."

"Oh, then tell me." Liu Yu was also interested.
