Emperor Shuang: The counterattack started from the Gaopingling Incident Chapter 507: The meaning is still unfinished, and the prestige is even greater than before
Chapter 507: The meaning is still unfinished, and the prestige is even greater than before
Although the generals at the head of the hall were a little dissatisfied and seemed to be unfinished, they still placed the empty wine bowl and the wine jug they had just picked up on the table in front of them, then clasped their fists and said, "I beg you to obey."
Grand Sima Military Order!"
Quan Cong saw that his prestige in the army was even greater than before, and his confidence in the upcoming war also increased a lot.
Obviously, like the generals of Wei and Shu, they still respect their superiors who can lead their neighbors to victory. Zhuge Liang's prestige in the Shu Han army was also established in the same way as Sima Yi and Cao Shuang's prestige in the Wei army.
Zhuge Liang was invited out by Liu Bei after he visited the thatched cottage three times. He obeyed his advice and was "like a fish in water".
However, Liu Bei's two sworn brothers, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, were not cold-blooded and did not approve of the new military advisor Zhuge Liang.
For Zhuge Liang, he is new to a force in which he is the youngest and the most junior. Old oily men like Guan Yu and Zhang Fei will not obey his orders.
Sure enough, I heard that Xiahou Dun, on Cao Cao's orders, led an army of tens of thousands to the new wilderness.
Liu Bei recruited Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, two wise brothers, discussed it. Zhang Fei said: "Brother, why don't you let the water go?"
This is a typical behavior of looking at Zhuge Liang's jokes. If Zhuge Liang doesn't have a good plan to retreat, he will expose his own ugliness and prove that he is a person in name only.
When Liu Bei asked Kong Ming for advice on how to retreat, Zhuge Liang said: "Afraid of Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Zhang Fei are self-reliant and unwilling to obey my orders. If my lord wants me to give orders, he should give me the "Sword Seal" and let me
I am fully responsible." Liu Bei then handed the sword seal to Zhuge Liang and asked him to command Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.
This is the best strategy for newly hired strategists to "settle" old employees. First, they must gain the highest trust of the boss and gain the right to "false holiday".
After Zhuge Liang obtained the supreme command, he divided his troops and dispatched generals, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Guan Ping, Liu Feng, Zhao Yun, and Liu Bei in turn, while he guarded Xinye County.
This aroused fierce dissatisfaction between Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, who were waiting to blame Zhuge Liang for losing the battle. Although the other generals did not say anything, they were full of doubts in their hearts and accepted the order with hesitation.
Later, under Zhuge Liang's strategizing, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun and other generals scattered Xiahou Dun's tens of thousands of troops and obtained many military supplies and equipment. At this time, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei raised their thumbs and sincerely praised Zhuge Liang as "the real
Yingjie too!"
Later, Zhuge Liang also successfully commanded the burning of Xinye and the burning of Red Cliff, and battled wits and courage with Zhou Yu, the governor of Soochow. These glorious deeds deeply impressed Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.
Zhuge Liang used both kindness and power to completely conquer the rebellious hearts of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.
According to Zhuge Liang's plan, after every victory, Zhuge Liang would reward Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and other people who had made great contributions.
In the Battle of Huarong Road, Zhuge Liang deliberately sent Guan Yu and asked him to issue a military order.
The final result was that Guan Yu ignored military orders and secretly released the embarrassed Cao Cao.
This is equivalent to Zhuge Liang grabbing Guan Yu's pigtails, and he did not delve into Guan Yu's guilt for letting Cao Cao go, so that he would not dare to be arrogant again.
Of course, compared to latecomers like Quan Cong, Zhuge Liang used not only military victory, but also literary methods, which was to use three visits to the thatched cottage to temper the two generals.
After Liu Bei said goodbye to Mr. Shui Jing, he chose a good time and auspicious day to go to Longzhong where Zhuge Liang lived in seclusion together with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.
On the way, Liu Bei saw a farmer singing a song composed by Mr. Wolong, and suddenly felt that Zhuge Liang was extraordinary.
When he came to the thatched cottage, he announced his family name very formally: "The General of the Han Dynasty, Yicheng Tinghou, and the Yuzhou Shepherd Emperor Liu Beite came to pay homage to Mr.
The boy responded, "It's too long and I can't remember it. He also told Mr. Liu Bei that he was not at home and was traveling around the world."
Liu Bei was very disappointed. He didn't know when Wolong would return, so he could only go back to Xinye and come back next time.
A few days later, Liu Bei heard that Wolong had returned home, so he went to visit Zhuge Liang regardless of the cold weather. He only saw Zhuge Liang's third brother, Zhuge Jun, but not Wolong himself, so he missed the opportunity again.
At this time, Zhang Fei, who had a fiery nature, couldn't stand it anymore. Before he set off, he asked a question, "Measure a villager." There is no need for the elder brother to go. I can just call him.
Liu Bei went to visit Zhuge Liang for the third time. Even Guan Yu, who had always been steady, couldn't hold his temper. He thought that visiting twice was already a great honor, and there was no need to visit a third time. I guess Zhuge Liang was a man with empty reputation.
People with practical knowledge avoid it for this reason.
Zhang Fei even looked down on the village man Zhuge Liang. He thought he could "invite" Zhuge Liang with a rope.
Liu Bei came to the thatched cottage for the third time and finally saw Mr. Wolong, whom he had always dreamed of. Unexpectedly, he was taking a lunch break.
Zhuge Liang made Liu, Guan and Zhang escape twice, but the third time he was still asleep. This time, after making Liu Bei wait for a long time, he finally got his wish to see the real Wolong.
This had long caused Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's dissatisfaction, but there was nothing they could do about it. The means of establishing prestige in the army were much more sophisticated than Quan Cong's. Of course, in addition to leading his soldiers to win the battle, Zhuge also used both civil and military means, and there was another move that had faster results.
That is to directly kill people and establish their authority!
In the age of cold weapons, if a general did not have prestige, it would be difficult to convince the public, let alone be able to lead his troops to victory in the war. Therefore, ancient generals attached great importance to establishing prestige.
When Sun Wu came to the Kingdom of Wu, King Helu of Wu did not know whether he had real talent or knowledge, so they randomly selected 180 maids in the inner palace and asked him to practice marching formations.
For ordinary people, faced with so many court ladies, they may not know where to start practicing - in fact, if it were easy to practice, the King of Wu would not use it to test Sun Wu's talent.
But Sun Wu was not an ordinary person after all. He divided the palace maids into two teams and appointed two concubines favored by King Wu Helu as captains. He explained the essentials of actions, rules and punishments to these palace maids, and made it clear to those who did not obey orders.
will be killed.
After the training, they started to practice. The maids didn't take Sun Wu's words about punishment seriously at all. They were all laughing and joking. They just thought it was fun and no one obeyed the orders. Sun Wu said sternly: "If you don't know the restraints and don't know the orders well, you will be punished."
." Ordered the execution of the two captains in accordance with military law.
When King Wu Helu saw that Sun Wu was actually here, he was shocked and immediately ordered to intercede on behalf of the two concubines: "I know that the general can use troops. I am not such a concubine. I can't bear to eat, so I hope you won't behead me."
Sun Wu replied: "Since I have been ordered to be a general and will serve in the army, I will not accept your orders." He insisted on killing the two Ai Ji who were in Helu, and then let the two people below them be captains and continued the drill...
