Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 4166
Fang Xuanling thinks that he has always been good at judging people, Su Dingfang has the qualifications of a famous general, strategizing and decisively winning thousands of miles, given the time and history, there may not be a place for him in history.However, Liu Rengui is more proficient in government affairs and has outstanding abilities. He has lived under Su Dingfang for a long time and his talents cannot be promoted.

It's better to take this opportunity to let Liu Rengui go north to make meritorious service. If he can take this opportunity to break away from the navy, not only can his personal ambitions be fulfilled, but he can also turn around and feed back to the navy.

But knowing that once the King of Jin is defeated and Prince Fubao ascends the throne in the north, it will be a meritorious service. Whether Su Dingfang will be willing to give up and fulfill Liu Ren's path needs to be explained in advance...

Su Dingfang turned his head and understood Fang Xuanling's meaning, and then he laughed and said: "Prime Minister Fang and the general have only been together for a short time, and it is also possible that they don't know much about the general's temperament. The general does not dare to praise his merits. A feat is achieved by the generals and soldiers fighting bloody battles, but when it comes to the heart and mind, the final general is not willing to be inferior to others."

After a pause, he gave Fang Xuanling a cup of tea in return, and sighed: "At the end of the year, I will follow Duke Wei, wasting years, and being depressed all day long... I can best understand the anguish of being unrewarded and repeatedly suppressed. The feeling of being unable to break free from the pressure of a mountain on your body is extremely uncomfortable. Therefore, since the Duke of Yue, Jian Ba, entrusted him with the post of commander of the navy to take charge of this powerful army in the world, he has made great efforts to promote him. Talents, as long as there are capable generals and schools, try to cultivate them so that they can be used. Regular talents are high-end, not a thing in the pool, and a mere navy is definitely not the end of his official career. Regularity is the stage of advancement, if you can go one step further, the general can only be pleased and support it with all your strength, how can you be jealous and block it? Xiang Fang, you underestimate the general."

Knowing his own family affairs, Su Dingfang thinks that his military strategy is not inferior to anyone who removes Wei Gong, but he also knows that he can only fight in the army for the rest of his life, and at the top of the sky, he will be the governor of one party and the general manager of the whole road. Ascend to the pavilion to pay homage to the prime minister and go straight to the center.

If you don't have that ability, but still expect to get there, isn't that just asking for trouble? Once you enter the center, with your own ability and personality, you will be tricked by those people in three or two days. left.

Why bother...

It's better to stay in the navy honestly, to be able to make contributions and cultivate talents, such as Liu Rengui, I give my full support at this moment, and when he is in a high position, how can he not think about today's friendship?

At the beginning, the reason why Duke Wei handed over his military affairs and stayed at home was deeply feared by His Majesty Li Er and excluded by the ministers of Zhenguan. In the final analysis, no one spoke well in front of His Majesty Li Er...

The officialdom is ups and downs, if you want to rise steadily, you must not only have outstanding talents, but also have noble people to support you all the way.

In the final analysis, the officialdom is not only talented, but also sophisticated in the world. He has been proficient in both civil and military affairs all his life, and he considers himself to be outstanding in strategy, but he lacks talent in this area. Here's an experience: Since you don't have the talent in this area, then don't be too demanding, just cultivate a few subordinates who are good at dealing with people. When these people occupy high positions in the future, you don't have to suffer in this area...

What's more, he is an open-minded person. If he didn't have a little heart, he would have been demoralized and drifted with the tide because of Li Jing's being squeezed out. How can he wait for the day of recovery?

Therefore, he has always been happy to see the success of the generals and schools under his command, whether it is Xue Rengui, Pei Xingjian, or Liu Rengui in front of him.

Liu Rengui got up, bowed to salute, and said gratefully: "Thank you for the cultivation of Fang Xiang, and thank you for the success of the governor! The general is always a member of the navy, and he is proud of his experience in the navy in this life, and he has already regarded the robes of the navy as his own. Like brothers and sisters, in this life and in this life, there is only gratitude, and we will never lose each other!"

He really spoke from the bottom of his heart.

Thinking about Liu Rengui who almost became Fang Jun's domestic slave back then, it was because he joined the navy that his talents were fully displayed, and with the ambition of being unreconciled to mediocrity, no matter where he will go in the future, the history of the navy will be his An indelible glory.

Besides, the hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the navy, the generals who have gone out one after another over the years, and the generals who are still serving in the navy, which one is not a genius?Over time, when these people slowly go out and fill higher positions, they will gradually form a powerful political force.

Above the imperial court, throughout the ages and dynasties, if you want to go further, you can't do it alone. You must have like-minded people to report to the group to keep warm and forge ahead, and the "Navy Department" may be his greatest political capital.

The name of "Navy Division" will one day lift the backbone of this empire and resound throughout the world...

Xiao Guan led the servants in Jinling City to urgently transport the money and silk goods from various shops and houses out of the city, and hid them in Guanyin Mountain.

It's not that he doesn't pay attention to these money and silk goods. This time, he summoned the private soldiers of the Jiangnan gentry to gather in Jinling to cross the Yangtze River to the north. The Xiao family almost used most of the family property. lose.But precisely because of the Xiao family's dominant position in the gathering of private soldiers this time, he was afraid of becoming a major target of the navy, so he had to return to the ancestral house in Nanlanling without stopping, and carry out emergency evacuation according to the pre-planned plan.

He even ignored his grandfather Xiao Xun's life and death in the naval formation...

A few days later, Xiao Guan returned to Nanlan Mausoleum in a hurry, but fortunately, he did not find any navy soldiers who landed from the Yangtze River and went straight to Nanlan Mausoleum.

Since the end of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the northern gentry moved southward on a large scale, and the Xiao family of Lanling also crossed the river and migrated to the south of the Yangtze River. Becoming a famous family in Wujin, and successively appearing such astonishingly talented clansmen like Emperor Gao of Qi Xiao Daocheng and Emperor Wu of Liang Xiao Yan, made the Xiao clan of Lanling more and more prestigious, and faintly became the largest clan in the south of the Yangtze River.

Now Wujin has been renamed Nanlanling, and it is the ancestral land of the Lanling Xiao family. It has many industries and deep roots. If it is slaughtered by the navy, the consequences will be disastrous...

Returning to the ancestral house to gather the clan elders, because Nanlan Mausoleum is close to the Yangtze River, he got the news early that tens of thousands of private soldiers in Yanziji were defeated by the Navy in World War I, which saved Xiao Guan a lot of tongues.

In the hall, Xiao Jun, the son of Xiao Xun, sat in the middle, next to Xiao Guan and a group of elders, they asked Xiao Guan impatiently: "Why did you come back by yourself, but abandoned your grandfather?"

Xiao Guan was ashamed and said helplessly: "Grandfather went to the river by boat to stop the navy, but then the navy came suddenly and launched an attack brazenly. I couldn't find my grandfather. At that time, the boy was afraid that the navy would attack the ancestral house, so after properly placing the money and silk goods in Jinling City, he kept returning all the way, it really deserves to die."

Xiao Jun wept silently at first, worried about his old father, and then angrily slapped the table and scolded: "Fang Jun, you are really deceiving people too much!"

Although Fang Junyuan was in Guanzhong, he had nothing to do with the order of the navy to attack the private army in the south of the Yangtze River, but he was the one who created the navy. Naturally, Fang Jun should be blamed for this, let alone his brother's only son, Xiao Siye, who died indirectly In Fang Jun's hands, although he has gained a good reputation as a "dead room", how can the blood debt be written off?

But the Xiao family married their daughter from the first line to Fang Jun as their concubine...

It's really entanglement, love and hate.

Thinking of my father being trapped in the naval formation in his seventy-seventh year, I am afraid that there will be more bad luck, and I am more and more angry.

Xiao Guandao: "The navy's soldiers are so strong that it is difficult to resist on the big river. This place is always under the threat of the navy. It is better to temporarily go south to Yangxian to avoid its edge, and then reconvene all the families in the south of the Yangtze River to discuss the follow-up, otherwise If you stay here, who knows when the navy will land and attack?"

In the battle of Yanziji, tens of thousands of private soldiers in the south of the Yangtze River were completely helpless, which made him deeply fearful of the navy. Nanlanling is only a few dozen miles away from the Yangtze River. The navy may attack at any time, and he can't sleep well.

Furthermore, it was led by the Xiao family who summoned various families in the south of the Yangtze River to recruit private soldiers to go north. Now they have lost a lot and suffered heavy losses. Let it go, and the Lanling Xiao clan will almost cut itself off from the Jiangnan clan.

Even though it is extremely difficult to recruit private soldiers again, one must make a gesture, otherwise the Xiao family will become sinners of the Jiangnan clan...

Xiao Jun hesitated, and sighed: "Back then, the north was full of dust and blood, and the ancestors had to give up their ancestral homeland and move their family to the south. During the process, they went through thousands of relatives and suffered countless twists and turns. Only then did they cross the south of the Yangtze River and settle down. So now... do we have to give up the family business that we have worked hard for for hundreds of years, disregard the ancestral tomb and clan, and move south again? Our descendants are ashamed of our ancestors."

Even for ordinary people, it is not easy to relocate the whole family at every turn, let alone a wealthy family like the Lanling Xiao family?
Xiao Guan said anxiously: "But the navy is running rampant across the river, waiting for the next attack. Who knows when it will attack by force? Father, if you break it, you must break it, otherwise the catastrophe of overthrow is just around the corner!"

The rest of the clan elders were also silent, in a dilemma.

Just at this time, a servant rushed in and said anxiously: "I want to report to your lord, an official letter from Shibo has arrived!"

Xiao Guan hurriedly said: "Bring it quickly!"

He got up and took the official letter in his servant's hand, opened the sealant and inspected it carefully. After reading it at a glance, he suddenly sighed: "There is no need for the whole family to go south to hide, and the Jiangnan clan will no longer be able to recruit private soldiers to gather north."

As he spoke, he handed over the official letter to his father, and sat down again with a slumped and depressed expression.

The Shibo Division actually seized all the merchant ships, cargo breeding, stores, and warehouses of the Jiangnan clan...the bottom line was taken properly. In this way, whoever dares to speak against the Shibo Division will have to bear the consequences of massive wealth loss.

And the Shibo Division and the Navy are basically one with each other...
