Volume 1 Chapter 85 Li Ru offered advice
The next day, Han Cheng summoned the generals in the army to the camp and introduced 'Han Feng' to everyone.
The generals in the Fenwu Army have never had any doubts about Han Cheng's approach, so they don't have too many objections to the sudden appearance of the intelligence battalion "Han Feng".
Han Cheng was afraid that everyone would embarrass Li Ru, so he prepared a set of rhetoric, but now that he looks at it, he can't use it.
He said with a sense of accomplishment in his heart: "I didn't expect that I would have a lot of prestige in the army, and I said a lot." ”
Only Zhang Liao, who had been in Chang'an, looked at this figure and the gloomy atmosphere, and felt very familiar, like a 'celebrity' in Chang'an.
But in the face of Captain "Han Feng" after changing his face, he could only murmur in his heart: "Could it be him?" ”
......
After Li Ru took over the affairs of the intelligence battalion from Fu Zhi, he first browsed all the documents and personnel materials in detail.
Although the intelligence battalion has developed rapidly with the strong support of the Liu family, it has heard a lot of news;
But whether it is the number of people or the ability of personnel, Li Ru, who once 'ruled the world', was greatly disappointed.
The only thing that satisfied Li Ru was that these more than 30 people had always kept in mind Han Cheng's teachings: low-key. So he made no achievements in intelligence investigation, but there were no big mistakes.
Li Ru could only comfort himself in his heart: "The current Han Cheng is like a blank piece of paper, on which the general outline has been drawn, and the specific branches and leaves still need to be filled in by himself." ”
Therefore, Li Ru called all the people in the intelligence battalion back and personally conducted a half-month intelligence investigation training for them.
With Han Cheng's consent, he asked Dong Si, who was specially responsible for finding out the news, to select more than 100 loyal and clever soldiers in the army, supplement them to the intelligence battalion, and participate in training together.
He also appointed Liu Wei's sons Liu Li, Liu Fu and Dong Si as the capital of the intelligence battalion to assist him in managing the intelligence battalion.
In just one month, under Li Ru's vigorous teaching, the people in the intelligence battalion have changed a lot, and information from inside and outside Yanmen County has come one after another.
On this day, Li Ru received important information: Han Cheng ordered: Next month, the military salary of the Fenwu Army will be delayed for three days.
Li Ru instantly deduced from this: The lord Han Cheng had encountered a difficult matter, and there was not much money in his hand.
Because military salaries are a major matter, according to Han Cheng's style, it will not be delayed unless it is absolutely necessary.
Li Ru thought for a moment: It seems that there are some things that he is going to do.
took the initiative to come to Han Cheng's study to meet Han Cheng.
At this time, Han Cheng was indeed worried about money.
Although Uncle Han Fu left Han Cheng a lot of wealth back then, with the influx of a large number of homeless people into Changshan County and Han Cheng going through several wars, there was not much wealth left in the treasury.
Although there are taxes from Yanmen County and Changshan County and the support of the Liu family, Han Cheng's army of nearly 30,000 consumes a huge amount of food every day, and the tax can support the military food is already very good, so now the money that Han Cheng can use has bottomed out.
I had no choice but to make this decision and postpone the payment of the military salary of the Fenwu Army for three days.
Although Han Cheng knew that the military salary could not be delayed and it was easy to have an accident, it was difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and Han Cheng, who had no money, could not do anything in the face of this situation.
Han Cheng's state in the study, how can he be so good at the word "sorrow"?
At this moment, the subordinate outside the door announced: "Captain Han Feng of the intelligence battalion asks to see him." ”
Han Cheng had no choice but to tidy up his clothes and said, "Please invite Captain Han in." ”
Xin said: "Wen You suddenly asked to see, it can't be that he knows any clues, right?" ”
"Meet the Lord!" As soon as Li Ru entered the door, he saluted and said.
The current Han Cheng was not in the mood to talk and laugh with Li Ru, so he said bluntly as soon as he came up: "Is there anything wrong with Wen You?" ”
When there were only Han Cheng and Li Ru, Han Cheng generally called Li Ru Wenyou, and only in front of everyone did he call Li Ru Han Feng.
One is that although he is the lord, he changes the name of his subordinates privately, and his subordinates will feel disgusted in their hearts;
Second, when the world is in turmoil, who cares about the former Li Ru, Li Ru can't call Li Ru back, Han Cheng just used this to collect Li Ru's heart.
When Li Ru heard Han Cheng call his cousin Wenyou, he was indescribably moved in his heart: "The lord is so good!" ”
Li Ru looked serious and said to Han Cheng: "Tell the lord, my subordinates know that the lord has been worried recently, so he came to solve the problems of the lord." ”
Han Cheng said to Li Ru expressionlessly, "How do you know that I have been sad recently?" ”
Li Ru rolled his eyes and said, "It's all the lord who told me?" ”
Han Cheng said to Li Ru in surprise, "When did I tell you?" ”
Seeing Han Cheng's surprised expression, Li Ru joked lightly: "The lord let his subordinates take charge of the intelligence battalion.
The so-called informant, the lord's 'eyes' are also, the lord's pocket has no money, my 'eyes' can't see, isn't it blind? ”
"Haha, good you Li Wenyou, my frowns are so worried, you are still joking with me? I guess I came to see the jokes.
Tell me quickly, where is the money? Also, how did you get the news? ”
When Han Cheng heard Li Ru say this, he knew that Li Ru already had a countermeasure in his heart, so his brows furrowed, and the troubles of the past day disappeared, and he also jokingly said to Li Ru.
I thought to myself: "It seems that it is appropriate to engage in such a thing as intelligence, and it is still necessary for an 'old yin person' like Li Ru to do it; I worked for more than a year, but there was no improvement.
There was such a big thing as civil strife in the Southern Xiongnu tribe, and I didn't know until more than a month later, what is the use of the information being transmitted at such a speed?
However, Li Ru's ability to engage in intelligence is too powerful, and he has never told anyone about the lack of money except for Han Ye, Huang Zhong, and Xu Miao. Can Li Ru know? ”
Li Ru saw a smile on Han Cheng's face, and said slowly: "I analyzed this news. As for the money, of course, it's in Yanmen County. ”
Han Cheng was angry when he saw Li Ru's slow and logical appearance, he was anxious, but you looked so slow and reasonable.
Pretending to be angry, he said, "Then tell me, how did you analyze it?" If there is a lie, I will turn your intelligence battalion Captain Han into Master Han who cleans the toilets in my Han Mansion. ”
Li Ru laughed, knowing that Han Cheng was pretending to be angry, so he changed his calm appearance and said, "Has the lord ever issued an order to postpone the payment of military salaries for three days?" ”
Han Cheng is a smart person, and when he heard Li Ru's words, he knew what the problem was: it turned out that it was this order that made Li Ru feel the clues.
Seeing that his pretense was seen through by Li Ru, he continued to the next topic: "Tell me, where is my money in Yanmen County?" ”
Seeing that Han Cheng had moved on to the next topic, Li Ru couldn't continue to entangle, so he could only say: "The lord thinks, who is the richest person in Yanmen County now?" ”
Han Cheng glanced at Li Ru and said in his heart: "Okay, you Li Ru, I just asked you, and immediately asked me in turn." However, they can't ask me. ”
Han Cheng replied without thinking: "The richest ones are, of course, the three great families. ”
Li Ru saw that Han Cheng's thinking was quick, so he said, "Isn't this the treasure mountain of the lord." ”
Han Cheng said aggrievedly: "But, these three families have money, but they don't give it to me?" ”
Li Ru showed a domineering look and said: "As long as it is in Yanmen County, it is all the lord's, but the lord wants to take it in that way." ”
Li Ru also talked about the theme of coming to see Han Cheng this time, and put away his joke.
As soon as Han Cheng heard Li Ru's words, he said in his heart: "What a domineering Li Wenyou, this is the Li Wenyou who poisons the world." ”
said solemnly: "Then tell me, what are the ways to take it?" ”
Li Ru liked this kind of tone of the lord's questioning of himself, so he continued:
"There are only three ways to dispose of the family. The first is to suppress it with force, just like Dong Zhuo, if you don't accept it, you will kill it, and you will kill it until you obey it. Under this coercion, the family will honestly take out the money. ”
After Li Ru paused for a moment, Han Cheng blurted out: "Dong Zhuo's methods are too arrogant, doing so will offend the whole world's families, I can't use it, this way is inappropriate." ”
Li Ruxin said: "This is the lord who has the world in mind." ”
He continued: "The second way, properly cooperated, just like Liu Biao in Jingzhou, let the various families reach an agreement. In this way, the family will also come up with money for its own interests. However, in doing so, although Liu Biao is the lord of a state, he is just a puppet of a family's compromise. ”
Han Cheng said thoughtfully: "Liu Biao is too weak. Yanmen County is mine, and the state will also be mine in the future, and I must say it. Neither will it work that way. ”
When Li Ru heard Han Cheng say this, he said in his heart: "It seems that my vision is good." Han Cheng is this son, but he has the heart to dominate the world. ”
Li Ru put away his thoughts and continued: "As for the last way, it is to break each one, hit one, pull one, and let the families weaken their own strength. When we take the initiative, we will also make them consciously come up with the money. ”
Han Cheng thought for a while: "In the end, this way is good. Wenyou, this matter is left to you, what do you need, tell me, I will satisfy you all, and after half a month, I hope their money is in my treasury. ”
Li Ru said respectfully: "No."
There was a burst of joy in my heart, and after being silent for a long time, I could finally make a move again.
