three kings

Chapter 375
After bidding farewell to his parents, Sun Can led Zhuge Liang, Tai Shici, and Xu Chu back to Xuchang after a few days' journey.

As soon as he arrived at the government office, Sun Can found Ma Liang, his deputy in government affairs, and asked him to arrange a residence for Zhuge Liang and Tai Shici, and then asked Liu Hua, Xun Yu, Guo Jia, Jia Xu and other core counselors to come to his study for discussion. political affairs.

Before all the guests arrived, Sun Can took the time to meet his two wives in the backyard.

Reunited after a long absence, the three of them are extremely infatuated.

Sun Can also told them about Qiao Ying at the right time.

In the Han Dynasty, it was very common for men to marry wives and take concubines. Neither of them said anything, neither supported nor opposed, and it was a tacit agreement.

The time of the gathering seemed very short, and it felt like before ten words were spoken, the news that everyone had arrived came from outside. Sun Can looked helplessly at Cai Yan and Diao Chan, showing an apologetic smile.

Cai Yan and Diao Chan left Ailang's arms one after another, and responded with expressions of understanding.

When they came to the meeting hall, Liu Hua, Xun Yu, Guo Jia, and Jia Xu were listed in their seats one by one.

Sun Can took a look at everyone, and said with a smile: "You guys have worked hard. During these days when Can was away, thanks to your concerted efforts, our army has been prosperous. Especially on the way back, the satisfied smiles of the people are all It means that our army has completely established a firm foothold in the Central Plains, and the economic and cultural center of the big man has begun to show its former style. All of this is inseparable from your hard work."

Everyone was humbled.

Sun Can looked at Xun Yu and said, "Especially Wen Ruo, as long as Wen Ruo is in the Central Plains, not to mention Yuan Shao, even if Cao Cao invades, Can can rest easy in Jiangdong."

Xun Yu politely said: "The subordinates are only performing their duties, and dare not claim credit."

Afterwards, Sun Canyou praised Guo Jia and Jia Xu one by one, and rewarded them with corresponding property respectively, expressing his great regard for them.

Trivia is done.

Sun Can got straight to the point, he said: "Before I get down to business, I would like to introduce a genius to you all. From now on, you will be ministers in the same temple, and you must work together to bring happiness to the people." As soon as the words fell, Sun Can He said to the outside world: "Come here, please invite Mr. Zhuge to the palace."

After a while, Zhuge Liang walked into the hall with a flying look, shaking his feather fan lightly.

Zhuge Liang first saluted Sun Can with a solemn expression, and then saluted Liu Hua, Xun Yu and others, and said loudly: "Zhuge Liang in Nanyang, I have met Liu Yafu, Mr. Xun Yu, Mr. Guo Jia, and Mr. Jia Xu. "

There is no need for introduction, and the courtesy is exactly the same.

Seeing Zhuge Liang's extraordinary temperament, Xun Yu, Guo Jia, and Jia Xu nodded in secret praise one after another.They are all brilliant people in the world, and they all have exquisite hearts, how could they fail to guess what Sun Can meant so grandly?
Everyone responded with a friendly smile.

"Haha!" Liu Huazai knew in the letter that Zhuge Liang would work for Sun Can. Seeing him now is still exciting. As the embodiment of Chinese wisdom, only he can understand what the three words Zhuge Liang represent in this era. Thinking of the excitement, I couldn't help laughing out loud, and said cheerfully: "Chan'er has Zhuge Liang's help, it's like getting half of the Han Dynasty."

Liu Hua's ability to understand people is enough to conceive, and he has already convinced everyone. When he said this, Xun Yu, Guo Jia, and Jia Xu immediately started to look at Zhuge Liang again.

Seeing this scene, Sun Can showed a smile. He had already seen Zhuge Liang's intelligence, and he was not inferior to anyone present. What he lacked was prestige, persuasion and tacit understanding.

The three factors of prestige, persuasion and tacit understanding do not happen overnight, but they are very important.

You don't have enough prestige. Although you are a big official, how can you convince the public? If you can't convince the public, what's the use of your talent?If you don't have enough persuasive power, how can you get your colleagues to listen to your strategy? Even if your strategy is excellent, if you don't persuade others to use it, is it still useless?Insufficient tacit understanding, others negotiate as usual, completely exclude you and ignore you, how can you join the group?
These are the three conditions that a core character must be defeated.

Therefore, if Zhuge Liang wants to develop his talents as soon as possible, he must master these three points.Otherwise, it will be difficult for him to take a single step, because he is different from others. Others are stepping up to a high position step by step, and they must have friends and subordinates to support them.But he reached the sky in one step, joined Sun Canjun's core without any achievements, and no one would stand by his side.

He said a thousand sentences earnestly, and there was absolutely no one sentence, or even a single word, that Xun Yu, Guo Jia, and Jia Xu had.After all, people have a subjective mind.The talents of Xun Yu, Guo Jia, and Jia Xu have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and what they say has a certain weight, but Zhuge Liang has no weight at all.

Therefore, it is not easy for Zhuge Liang to join Jingzao and truly integrate into the core of the army.

The reason why Sun Can made things so grand was that Xun Yu, Guo Jia, Jia Xu and others helped Zhuge Liang and accepted Zhuge Liang so that he could fully display his talents as soon as possible.

Sun Can asked Zhuge Liang to stand under Jia Xu, and asked Liu Hua, "Father Ya, is there anything important about the military strategy?"

Liu Hua replied: "All the armor and weapons of the soldiers in our army are replaced with new ones. All kinds of weapons have been replaced by new ones, damaged, unable to be forged, and old weapons have been made into various agricultural tools and distributed everywhere. Generals day and night There is no negligence in training soldiers, and everything else is fine."

"Then something went wrong in government affairs?" Sun Can turned to Xun Yu and asked.

Xun Yu came out of the shift and said: "Not yet! There is nothing wrong with all taxes and things. If there are individual mistakes, the subordinates will deal with them on their behalf. Don't worry about it."

"That should be the matter of Cao Cao, Liu Bei or Yuan Shao. What's wrong with them?" Sun Can asked again.

"Indeed!" Liu Hua nodded and said, "According to the information, Cao Cao asked his favorite general Xia Houyuan and his confidant Xi Zhicai to guard Hanzhong, and there is suspicion of sending troops to Xichuan. However, according to reliable information, Cao Cao's army has been collecting wood extensively recently. Ironware is used to make arrows, crossbows, spears, shields, chariots and other weapons."

"Arrows, crossbows, spears, shields, chariots" Sun Can said silently in his heart, and then asked, "No ring swords and spears?"

Liu Hua shook his head seriously and said, "No, according to the information we got, there is none."

Sun Can's expression also became serious, which is completely unreasonable. The first choice of weapons for making weapons such as knives and spears, they are not only cheap, but also have amazing lethality. They are must-choices in the army.Even for the most powerful self, the main weapons are ring swords and spears. Only ace elites have luxury weapons such as spears.

If it is said that Cao Cao wanted to use weapons to increase his strength, this reason is in the past, but what about shields, chariots, arrow branches, and crossbows?

Although the crossbow is a sharp weapon for killing the enemy, once the crossbow is close to the soldiers, the soldiers will completely lose their combat power. It is obviously not feasible to use it as the main force. The mobility of the chariot is a military tool that has long been eliminated. If Cao Cao has no reason, he will not Take pains to make it.

What does Cao Cao want to use these for?Is it used to deal with cavalry?

At this time, Sun Can suddenly thought of Li Mu, the God of War of the Zhao Kingdom, and thought of him setting up a strange formation with chariots and outflanking the Huns with two wings.

As he continued to think about it, he thought of the great Han Li Ling who shot and killed [-] Hun cavalry with [-] infantry.

"Could it be...could it be..."

An impossible idea appeared in Sun Can's mind, "Cao Cao wants to fight Ma Teng?"

Guo Jia replied in the same voice: "This subordinate also thinks the same way, but I'm not sure."

"I'm not sure" shouldn't have come out of the mouth of a genius like Guo Jia, but he did say that.

Sun Can also became puzzled at this time, Cao Cao is not an ordinary person, he will not do unnecessary things.It was not a wise decision for Cao Cao to go to war with Xiliang.

It is true that Cao Cao's army is stronger than the Xiliang army, but the [-] cavalry in Xiliang are not easy to deal with.

Not to mention Cao Cao's tens of thousands of troops on the grassland, even if Sun Can led his 30 elites, he would not dare to say that he could win the opponent's [-] cavalry on the endless grassland.

As long as the [-] elite cavalry are used properly, they can fully display ten times the combat effectiveness on the endless grassland.

If you want to win, you can only use strategy.

However, Ma Teng is brave and good at fighting, Han Sui is old and treacherous, and Ma Chao is wise and brave. It is not easy for Cao Cao to win, even if he wins, it is a miserable victory.

At that time, even if they win Xiliang, how will they resist their own offensive?How to resist the offensive from aliens?

In this way, there is no advantage to Cao Cao. With Cao Cao's wisdom, he would not go to war with Xiliang so hastily. Cao Cao will not make dangerous moves unless it is a last resort.

Obviously, Guo Jia has also figured this out, so he has some doubts about the judgment he has always been proud of.

"What do you think?" Sun Can asked Liu Hua, Xun Yu, and Jia Xu.

Liu Hua shook his head and said: "Our opinion is the same as Feng Xiao's, we all think that Cao Cao made these sharp weapons to deal with Liangzhou's cavalry, but how to deal with them is really hard to figure out.

However, according to the preliminary analysis, we have always believed that Cao Cao's move was for long-term planning, because our army's current strength is far superior to his, and he must take Liangzhou. Only in this way can he have peace. The strength of our army to contend with.But this statement also has a great disadvantage, that is, time.Bing is very fast, and if he wants to send troops, Cao Cao's actions are a bit abnormal. Compared with his intention to invade the northwest, it is better to say that his actions today are waiting for a fighter opportunity. "

At this time, Zhuge Liang, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "Could it be that Cao Cao discovered a fighter plane that we didn't find? This fighter plane did not come from Cao Cao himself, but from Ma Teng's side in Liangzhou."
