The conversation between Ma Xiaoyao and Gu Zhiqiu was very harmonious, and Gu Zhiqiu gave Ma Xiaoyao advice based on his own experience.
"If you want to control the entire military camp, you must first subdue ten thousand commanders." Gu Zhiqiu said in a deep voice: "As the Lord just said, you have just arrived, and your martial arts cultivation is not enough to suppress everyone, so the ten captains will definitely despise you."
"Do you despise me, they have a lot of respect for me today," Ma Xiaoyao said.
"That's pretending." Gu Zhiqiu pouted: "I have a deep relationship with them, what kind of character they are, I know very well in my heart, even when Han Mingguang was the chief soldier, it took a lot of effort to subdue these ten people." Speaking of this, Gu Zhiqiu added: "Before the adults came to take office, I heard the rumors that ten captains were plotting together to prepare to deal with you. β
"This is true," Ma Xiaoyao's eyes flashed with a gleam.
"If you don't believe it, you can investigate it privately." Gu Zhiqiu's tone of voice was very affirmative.
"Damn" Ma Xiaoyao slapped the table: "Ding Xiong and the others are really bold, they dare to join forces to deal with me, I will definitely not let them go"
After Ma Yao's feelings calmed down a little, Gu Zhiqiu continued: "My lord, have you ever heard a fable that is a story about an old scholar teaching his disciples, the old scholar has a total of three apprentices, all of whom are very talented, the only deficiency is that the three apprentices are all in the limelight, fighting each other openly and secretly, no one obeys anyone, the old scholar is very anxious in his eyes, and then he thought of a way, one night, he called the three apprentices into the room, and then gave each apprentice a chopstick, Then let the apprentice break the chopsticks, the three apprentices easily broke the chopsticks, and then the old scholar sent two chopsticks to each person, let them continue to break, this time the three apprentices took a lot of effort to break the two chopsticks at the same time, and then the old scholar gave each of them ten chopsticks, let them break this time, no matter how the three apprentices worked, they could not break the chopsticks, at this time the old scholar warned the three apprentices, a chopstick can be easily broken, but a chopstick is difficult to break, this is the same as being a man, After all, a person's strength is limited, and it is easy to be defeated by the enemy, if the three apprentices can work together, then the strength will skyrocket, and it will be difficult for the enemy to deal with them, after listening to the words of the old scholar, the three apprentices suddenly woke up, and they will never fight again. β
Ma Xiaoyao nodded thoughtfully: "You mean that once Ding Xiong and the others join forces, it will be very difficult for me to deal with them again."
"Yes." Gu Zhiqiu nodded: "That's what I mean, if the ten captains unite together to fight against you, then you, the general soldier, will be hollowed out." β
"They dare," Ma Yao snorted angrily.
"If it were Han Mingguang, they would definitely not dare, but they would dare to you." Seeing that Ma Xiaoyao's face became ugly, Gu Zhiqiu hurriedly explained: "My lord, I definitely don't mean to underestimate you, I just want to tell you that your foundation in the White Tiger Banner is too weak, and your own strength is not very strong, it is really difficult to suppress Ding Xiong and others." Gu Zhiqiu thought about it and added: "My lord, although what I said is a little unpleasant, it is all from my heart. β
Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "Then what do you say I should do?"
"Divide and strike." Gu Zhiqiu said without hesitation: "Don't go toe-to-toe with Ding Xiong and the others for the time being, slowly look for opportunities to divide the relationship between them, and it would be better if you could provoke a fight between them." β
Ma Xiaoyao didn't speak, it seemed that he was thinking about Gu Zhiqiu's construction.
"Of course, if the adults are troublesome, then we can take a more direct approach." Gu Zhiqiu said.
"In what way," Ma Xiaoyao hurriedly asked.
"Take advantage of the fact that Ding Xiong and the others are not prepared at the moment, and use thunderous means to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys."
"Killing chickens and setting an example for monkeys"
"Yes."
"Who's the chicken"
"Ding Xiong is among the ten captains, Ding Xiong is the oldest and the most difficult, if you can get rid of him, it will definitely deter the others, and then the adults will adopt some gentle policies, so as not to worry that they will not obediently listen to you."
"It's going to be very risky."
"Yes, there is a lot of risk, but the results are the fastest." Gu Zhiqiu nodded: "There are only these two ways I can think of, first, with Ding Xiong and the others, slowly looking for opportunities to divide them, it takes a lot of time to do so, but the success is great, second, while they are not too prepared, use thunder means to take down Ding Xiong, and deter others, and then use some gentle policies to appease the remaining few captains, which one are you willing to choose, my lord"
Ma Xiaoyao did not rush to answer, but pondered Gu Zhiqiu's two mentions in his heart, the two mentions have their own advantages and disadvantages, the first method is slow to work, but there is not much risk, the second method is fast, but the risk is too great, and if it is not done well, it will cause a big mess.
Ma Xiaoyao is not a fledgling young man, he has been an official for many years, he is well versed in the way of being an official, and the most taboo point in the officialdom is to rush forward, it is good to succeed, but it will be miserable if he fails.
Which one should you choose?
Ma Xiaoyao fell into deep thought.
Gu Zhiqiu didn't bother, and sat quietly waiting for Ma Xiaoyao's decision, in fact, he was more inclined to the first method, steady and steady, not seeking quick results, just low risk, he is now a grasshopper on a rope with Ma Xiaoyao, Ma Xiaoyao is developed, he will also be developed, Ma Xiaoyao falls, then he will also be unlucky, so he doesn't want to see Ma Xiaoyao take a detour, and he doesn't want to see Ma Xiaoyao have any mistakes.
No matter what, the decision is in the hands of Ma Xiaoyao, Ma Xiaoyao is whatever he says, and Gu Zhiqiu, as a subordinate, can only obey unconditionally.
Time passed bit by bit
After careful consideration, Ma Xiaoyao finally made a decision: "I thought about it, I am new to the city, and I am not familiar with the situation here at all, and I am afraid that it will cause a big mess if I take it rashly, so I decided to come steadily and step by step." β
"Okay, since you have made a decision, then I will cooperate with you unconditionally." A smile appeared on Gu Zhiqiu's face.
"Old Gu, it's up to you next, you can't let me down." Ma Xiaoyao quipped.
"Don't worry, my lord, I'll start making plans when I get back, and I won't let you down." Gu Zhiqiu patted his chest and reassured.
Next, the two chatted about some trivial matters, and then Gu Zhiqiu got up and said goodbye and left.
Half an hour later, there was an earth-shattering roar outside, Ma Xiaoyao hurriedly pushed the door and ran out, there was an ugly-looking behemoth standing in the yard, it was the toothed beast who saw the toothed beast, Ma Xiaoyao was extremely happy, and rushed over directly and hugged the toothed beast: "Hahaha old man, we meet again"
"Whew"
The toothed beast is also very affectionate to the horse, and keeps rubbing the horse with its big head.
"Old man, I'm the chief soldier now, and in the future, you will follow me, eat and drink well, live well, and play well, and you won't have to worry about anyone hurting you anymore." Ma Yao smiled.
"Whew"
The fanged beast nodded happily.
"Plus, you'll take the little toothed beast over, and you'll be reunited then." Ma Xiaoyao has already figured it out, there is a time bomb to deter the fanged beast, there is no need to threaten its descendants anymore, return the small toothed beast to the big toothed beast, the big toothed beast will definitely be grateful to him, and then he will be more loyal to him.
Sure enough, the toothed beast was very excited when it heard Ma Xiaoyao's words, and kept circling around Ma Xiaoyao.
"Alright, you can find a place to play by yourself, I'm going to rest." The horse patted the fanged beast's big paws.
"Whew"
The fanged beast consciously walked to the door and lay down, acting as a gatekeeper.
"You don't need to guard the door, you can go play." Ma Yao waved his hand.
"Whew"
The fanged beast shook its head and lay motionless in the doorway.
"Whatever you want, if you get tired of going out to play, but there is one thing, you can't leave the General Military Mansion, and you can't hurt people casually." Ma Xiaoyao admonished.
"Whew" the fanged beast nodded, indicating that it understood.
"Well, I'm going to rest." After saying hello to the fanged beast, Ma Xiaoyao returned to the hall with his feet up, and then went to sleep in the back house.
The Ouyang family manor is brightly lit.
Most of the main members of the family gathered in the hall.
The head of the family, Ouyang Wudang, sat in the middle, with tigerish eyes, and glanced at the family disciples in the hall: "I called you all over today to discuss one thing, a major matter related to the rise and fall of our Ouyang family. Speaking of this, he paused: "Lie'er, it's up to you." β
"Yes, father." Ouyang Lie bowed slightly, then raised his head and said loudly: "You may have heard that some time ago, my daughter was dealt with an object, but I didn't agree very much, and then because something happened, I was even more opposed."
"Pick it up." Ouyang Wuxing frowned.
"That's right" Ouyang Lie twitched his cheeks: "My daughter's object is called Ma Xiaoyao, everyone is familiar with this name, that's right, he is the newly appointed chief soldier of the White Tiger Banner." β
"Wow"
The scene immediately caused an uproar.
"Be quiet and listen to Lie'er finish speaking." Ouyang Wuxing tapped the table with his fingers, his majesty in the family was still very high, as soon as he spoke, everyone immediately closed their mouths and didn't say a word more.
Ouyang Wuxing was very satisfied with his control, he waved his hand at Ouyang Lie, and motioned for Ouyang Lie to continue.
