Chapter 136 Convince people with virtue

With the lessons of the past, Zhang Yuan will be much safer to do things again.

A simple "letter of peace" was not enough to convince Fan Yong, let alone make Fan Yong and Fang Zhongyong turn against each other. So, a guy named He Zhen, carrying Yuan Hao's handwritten letter, came to Yanzhou and asked to meet the highest governor of Yanzhou by name.

Who is the supreme governor of Yanzhou?

Theoretically, it's Fan Yong, because he's a genuine Zhizhou. Under the premise that the correct treatment of Wen Yuwu is correct, there is no problem.

But Yanzhou is a border state, a frontier region, and everything has to serve the war. Therefore, there is a general like Liu Ping who actually leads troops, and he can also be called the highest commander.

Of course, there is also a role like Fang Zhongyong, which is temporarily assigned to be similar to the commander of the theater in later generations, which can also be called the supreme commander.

For this kind of superficial provocation, Fang Zhongyong laughed at it, Liu Ping didn't even let out a fart.

The chief executive competes with the officials appointed by the imperial court, and he, a person with no qualifications and no connections, should not blindly participate. Anyway, you always need someone to guard the country! A civil and military all-rounder like us, who was born as a jinshi and has rich combat experience, is still worried that there is no place for it?

According to the reports of some people who can't see the light, after He Zhen met Fan Yong, it was like seeing his father, that intimacy!

and like a dead father, he wept bitterly. scolded some people for their desire for profit, slaughtered the officials and people of the Western Xia without authorization, instigated disputes between the two countries, and wanted to use the blood of the Western Xia and the people of the Great Song Dynasty to stain their own black yarn.

It's really sad for those who hear it, and weep for those who hear it!

It is said that Lord Fan was very accompanied by a handful of old tears, and vowed not to let the traitors and villains succeed and destroy the friendly and good-neighborly relations between the two countries for generations.

Dou Shouzhi talked for a long time, and saw that Fang Zhongyong always had a smile on his face, and did not say a word.

Dou Shouzhi was anxious: "Don't be stupid!" Fan Yong privately met with the envoys of the enemy country, and was suspected of collaborating with the enemy! As long as the handsome man gives an order, the slave will definitely make him a dilemma of life and death! ”

"Don't button your hat! Master Fan is old and respectful, and he is really a role model for us! ”

"Dashuai, are you stupid? That old thing was arguing with you yesterday, saying that Yuan Hao has always been submissive. This is doubting your judgment! To say small, secretly ended up with him, saving noise! "Boss Zhe is quite sad about his misfortune and angry with his indisputable meaning.

Fang Zhongyong kicked over: "You bastard, you have only eaten a full meal for a few days, and you dare to kill high-ranking officials in the imperial court?" When the time comes, I'll have to be unlucky with you.

Dou Gonggong, if you fold it big, it's a rammer, don't take it seriously! ”

Dou Shouzhi said with a bitter face: "Okay, my handsome, don't tease the slave!" In this Yongxing Army's one-acre and three-point land, who dares to stab you? It is true that the slave and maid have the responsibility of supervising the army, but how dare they overstep their responsibilities and question the decision of the main general?

Fan Bochun relied on the old and sold the old, did not understand the world, and fell into the enemy without knowing it. is still self-assured and wise, and he is constrained everywhere, which is worse than the one of his predecessors. The slave and maid are really not tempting the marshal, if the marshal really intends to get rid of this person, although the slave and maid will do it, to ensure that the gods do not know the ghost. It's a big deal, just report the death of the battle afterwards. ”

Fang Zhongyong slapped the table: "I told you a long time ago, we are cultural people, we must pay attention to convincing people with virtue everywhere, repay grievances with virtue, and don't fight and kill at every turn." spread out, and people thought that the champion of Ben Shuai was bought with money! You say yes, Hongxuan? ”

Gongsun Ce's level of cultural people is high, and he praised: "What the adults said is very true! It's just half a sentence less, Zi said, repay grievances with virtue, how to repay virtue? Master Fan is really a little too much! ”

"Hongxuan, you've learned badly! Let me ask you, after Yuan Hao suffered a big loss in Jinmingzhai, will he repent so quickly, and be ready to change his past mistakes and reconcile with my Great Song Dynasty? ”

Gongsun Ce sneered: "It's just a plan to slack off the soldiers, what a way!" ”

Seeing that everyone was confused, Fang Zhongyong helplessly explained: "In "Huainanzi Military Training Strategy", it is said that the way to use soldiers is to show softness and welcome them with rigidity; Show it to be weak, and multiply it to be strong; For it, it should be done; Will want to the west and show it to the east.

I usually tell you to read more books, but I don't listen, it's a shame, right?

And you, Di Qing. It doesn't matter if others don't understand, you can always understand it, right? I remember when I was in Tokyo, I told you to read more military books. ”

Di Qing was a little embarrassed: "The last general is reading "The Art of War", and he has not studied it thoroughly, so he doesn't dare to dabble too much. Please punish the commander! ”

"What did you do? Soldiers are impermanent, water is impermanent, and being able to read "The Art of War" for a lifetime is enough for you to make a name for yourself. Reading too much, it's just like being a two-legged bookcase. "Fang Zhongyong is very modest.

Which god of war says he is the god of war, and which big star says he is a star? It's all up to someone else to say!

Sure enough, Chong Shiheng, who had a very low sense of existence, hurriedly brushed a wave: "The handsome man is not too humble!" With a little trickery before, Yuan Hao was bumped, and he thought that Yanzhou would be the place where Yuan Hao was buried! ”

"Whether Yuan Hao can be defeated in Yanzhou, or even die in this battle, is not in the commander, but in the general, in General Liu Ping, but also in the security army, the Suide army, and even the Dingbian army and the Huanzhou garrison."

Chong Shiheng was greatly admired: "Dashuai is really a big game of chess!" ”

"Actually, it's not very clever! It's just that I, as a chess player, have more pieces at my disposal, and if it were you, maybe it would be better than what I did. Fang Zhongyong will be humble to the end.

"The last general will not dare! The last will not dare! "Although Chong Shiheng also wants to be the leader, he is still very low-key because his strength is not good at the moment.

Now you don't dare, when your sons have grown up, and they have been in the northwest for decades, known as the "family army", you will naturally dare.

The boss couldn't get used to these vain things, and urged: "Don't talk about it at this time, okay?" That shitty messenger of Western Xia is about to run away, whether we swallow him alive or skin him alive, you should give a happy word! ”

Fang Zhongyong slapped another flying leg that made the fold extremely comfortable: "My words, you listen to the dog's belly?" As I just said, we must convince people with virtue and convince people with virtue, why do we only think about black hands? The guests are leaving, and Ben Shuai, as the commander of one party, why don't you go to see off to show off the demeanor of my country of etiquette in the Great Song Dynasty? ”

The boss was still confused, but Di Qing had already reacted: "This is the so-called, show it with softness, and welcome it with rigidity; Show it to be weak, and multiply it to be strong, right? ”

Fang Zhongyong looked at Boss Zhe with disgust: Look, look, you know why your grades are so bad, right? I don't have to listen to lectures in class, and I always answer the phone, and I can't learn you well in 800 years! Di Qing is so well-behaved, he studies seriously and thinks positively in class, and he doesn't play with you after class, and secretly learns by himself.

No wonder people will become deputy privy envoys in the future, you fold big, at most follow me to eat and wait for death!

Riding a horse and rushing outside the city, Fan Yong was still with the messenger, lingering and sympathetic, saying goodbye, but there was never a farewell.

I saw the expected lose

came, Boss Fan Yong smiled generously: "Knowing that mistakes can be changed, good is great!" Master Fang is young and vigorous, although there are small mistakes, he is still very able to understand the general situation! The old man is very relieved! ”

He Zhen, the envoy of Western Xia, also smiled and said: "Lord Fang can put all the people first, and do not make the two countries regain their swords, and the sage book is indeed not read in vain."

But why is it so deserted outside the city? Could it be that Lord Fang still doesn't believe in my Great Xia's sincerity, and is still carrying out the policy of strengthening the wall and clearing the wilderness? You can take a break!

How difficult the people's livelihood is, please put the people first and restore normal order as soon as possible! ”

Let the people come out and cut and enslave you with you? Think beautifully!

Still looking compassionate? Virtue!

Fang Zhongyong resisted the urge to break the corpse of this guy who was full of benevolence and morality, and who seemed to be a traitor but was actually a traitor, arched his hand, and flew away.

Fan Yong laughed: "Young people are shallow-skinned, so don't take it to heart." Please also ask the envoy to go back, and the good student will discuss with the lord of your country, as long as you go to the honorable name, everything is easy to discuss! Returning to normal mutual markets, ordinary things too! ”

Fan Yong returned to the city with joy, still fantasizing about the time when he used his incorruptible tongue to move Yuan Hao and settle the dispute between the two countries. He was stunned to find that his illness was not greeted by flowers and applause, and there was no ashamed Fang Zhongyong who came to ask him for his guilt and repented, but a few eunuchs in palace clothes who were fierce and vicious.

He knows the leader, Dou Shouzhi! A flattering villain who followed Fang Zhongyong all day long and completely forgot about his errand in supervising the army!

Fan Yong was not afraid: "Father-in-law Dou is not on business with Lord Fang, what are you doing here to this official?" ”

"What? You accepted the emperor's favor in vain, and you didn't want to serve the court, but you exchanged news with the thieves of Western Xia, ignoring the safety of the country and society. Jinte was ordered by Shangfeng to come and capture you and escort you to the capital to await trial! ”

Fan Yong, an old bird who has been through the ups and downs of the sea for a long time, can be frightened by a few big words: "You are a little yellow door, who gave you the courage to coerce this official?" Oh, yes, it must be that Fang Zhongyong felt embarrassed and wanted to scare the official and save some face. Go back and tell Fang Zhongyong not to do what you are doing, lest you be a bad person in the future! ”

Dou Shouzhi sneered: "Do you really think that I, the prison army, don't do anything?" Our family only follows the will of the official family, and Fang Zhongyong and Fang Zhongyong are just trying their best to overcome the difficulties together.

To tell you honestly, our family has also tested whether Lord Fang has the intention of going out to you, and Lord Fang said that he must convince people with virtue. No, our family is here to convince people with virtue.

Lord Fan, you are also an old minister of the first dynasty, and you are an envoy of the festival. If it weren't for the definite handle, do you think our family would come and dare to touch you? ”

Fan Yong was furious: "You gelding, how dare you kill Zhongliang? ”

"It's true that our family is a eunuch, but it's not someone's dog. It's you, who pretend to be full of poetry and books, but you're just a confused old dog! Yuan Hao's army is not far away, waiting for the day, and the troops and horses are strong, and they will attack Yanzhou in the near future. But you are still delusional, and you will surrender without a fight. It's so confusing! ”

Of course, Dou Shouzhi didn't dare to really treat Fan Yong as a matter of house arrest. It is to provide good food and drink every day, and you are not allowed to go out to work.

As a result, everyone suddenly discovered that Master Fan, who was originally in good health, suddenly became seriously ill and entrusted the affairs of the yamen to Lord Fang as his agent.
