Yu Yue said to himself thoughtfully: "The method of restriction? The method of restriction? This is a bit interesting. You mean, not only to make these tiger and wolf generals afraid, but also to give them enough benefits to make them
There is hope for promotion, betraying you will result in heavy consequences, and obeying you will result in due rewards?"
Tao Yuanming smiled slightly: "The art of controlling and employing people is nothing more than this. Since they are villains who have risen from the bottom, Wufu, you have to know what they want most and what they are most afraid of losing."
Yu Yue laughed: "Villains and low-class people endure hardships, so joining the army is nothing more than trying to fight for wealth with your life. Now I kind of understand what you mean. Liu Laozhi and the others don't want to leave the army, even if they are generals
They also do not forget to practice martial arts. In fact, to put it bluntly, it is not because they like to fight and kill people, or practice riding and shooting, but because they understand that all they can do is fight and kill people. They cannot be a noble family or hold great power. At least they are
They can only survive by their fighting skills in this life, so if they are allowed to leave the army and become separated from their subordinates, they will think that this is reducing their military power and want to harm him!"
Tao Yuanming nodded with satisfaction: "Yugong is really a great talent. With these few words of reminder, you will know what these villains and warriors are thinking. Yes, our noble family has a family tradition that is passed down to our descendants.
Most of them are people who have read poetry and books, are literate, and can recite poems and compose poems. In the eyes of the lower class people, we are born with the ability to rule them. This ability is culture. Those military generals
No matter how high their martial arts skills are or how powerful they are in killing people, they still don’t have this ability. Even if they want to manage more people in the army, they have to look at the art of war and military orders to do it, and these art of war and military orders are ancient
Those famous people wrote it for the soldiers, and it is also the military art of our ancestors. Therefore, the warriors are afraid of and respect our cultural talents and do not dare to make mistakes easily."
Yu Yue murmured: "This is the same as the so-called emperor is the Son of Heaven, has the power granted by God, and represents the herdsmen. This statement to us seems not worth refuting, but countless fools believe it. In fact, it is
By the same token, it’s no wonder that although Liu Laozhi betrayed his old master many times, he never thought of becoming self-reliant and assuming power like Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao. It turned out that deep down in his heart, he still believed that he had no culture and could only
He was driven by a noble family to be just a general. He didn't want to leave the army, but he didn't expect to be able to control the government. Alas, Wang Gong, a fool, and Sima Yuanxian, a fool. If they knew Liu Laozhi's thoughts, they would give him
How can a little respect for face lead to the final outcome?!"
Tao Yuanming nodded: "Dong Zhuo, Cao Cao was able to abolish the establishment in the end and take sole control of the government because they were nobles before joining the army. They were educated and knew the past, so they would not limit themselves to the status of a warrior.
Above, this is where they are higher than Liu Laozhi. After the failure of the Northern Expedition, Liu Laozhi lost all his main force. At this time, he actually had no capital to help the Xie family anymore. As Xie An and Xie Xuan gave up on their own,
After taking power, Liu Laozhi also disbanded and returned to his fields, and was idle at home. At this time, the Beifu Army could actually be said to be gone. Therefore, it cannot be said that Liu Laozhi, Sun Wuzhong and others betrayed the Xie family, or that they betrayed the Xie family.
The first generation of Beifu Army."
Yu Yue said seriously: "Didn't Liu Laozhi rebuild the Beifu Army later? Although the Xie family did not provide resources, it was Wang Gong who used the imperial treasury to let him build the army. Does this mean that Liu Laozhi
Will you join Wang Gong’s family from now on?”
Tao Yuanming shook his head: "You can't say that. Wang Gong was the governor of Yangzhou and rebuilt the army in the name of the imperial court. He didn't even name the Beifu Army at the beginning, but just reactivated Liu Laozhi and authorized him
When he went to build the army, the initial quota for the army was only about 10,000 people. Liu Laozhi did not summon many old troops, because the Beifu Army's truly effective tiger troops only had a few hundred people left after the Battle of Wuqiaoze, which could be said to exist in name only.
, so Liu Laozhi summoned mostly stragglers, horse thieves and bandits. Because of Liu Laozhi's reputation as a famous general in the Northern Expedition, and the generous conditions given by Wang Gong at the time, many of them were scattered around after the Feishui Battle.
All the tough bandits are willing to join Liu Laozhi's new army. What we are going to take today is actually Liu Laozhi's old path."
Yu Yue suddenly realized: "Yes, after the war, there were stragglers everywhere. These people are a God-given source of troops. They are much better than the usual recruitment and training. However, these people are difficult to manage and do not obey military discipline. We need
Only a strong leader can take control. Liu Laozhi happens to be such a person!"
Tao Yuanming nodded: "So in order to maintain the hearts and minds of this army and use it for his own purposes, Liu Laozhi completely ruined military discipline. The reason why he later did so many bad things when he conquered Tianshi Dao and marched into the land of Sanwu,
Also because this was to satisfy the needs of his sergeants to plunder wealth through war, Wang Gong asked Liu Laozhi to form an army, not for the Northern Expedition, but for the opportunity to break into the capital and kill Sima Daozi and his son, so this army
He also made up his mind to get rid of it after using it!"
"It's a pity that he didn't expect that because his arrogant attitude towards Liu Laozhi angered Liu Laozhi, and Liu Laozhi felt that it would be more promising to seek refuge with the prince Sima Daozi than to hang out with Wang Gong, who looked down on him, so he
He betrayed Wang Gong and turned to Sima Daozi with his head. Sima Daozi soon gave him the opportunity to loot Sanwu. From this time on, Liu Laozhi truly took control of the Beifu Army and was no longer controlled by the powerful family.
, this kind of civil war in Changdao led to Qiu Ba's rise to power and the tragic lesson that the family lost power, we must learn from it."
Yu Yue frowned: "Is Luo Longsheng reliable? Could he be another Liu Laozhi?"
Tao Yuanming smiled slightly: "Luo Longsheng is a member of my tribe. I know him very well. I control his family and nephews, so he would not dare to betray him. Wang Gong had no way to restrain Liu Laozhi at that time, but he thought that this
He was a running dog who would take orders from him, so he made a big mistake. Moreover, he did not have enough eyes and eyes in the army, so that when Liu Laozhi turned against him, he didn't know anything about it. I will not make this mistake.
If you do something wrong, don’t worry about it, Mr. Yu.”
Yu Yue secretly breathed a sigh of relief, still frowning: "Another mistake you mentioned was that you didn't give people like Liu Laozhi enough promotion channels. But after I just listened to your words, Wang Gong gave them
Liu Laozhi has enough official titles, so how can he be promoted?" ()
