He Fu was overjoyed. He went to Guling to welcome Sun Ce, and heard people talk about Tai Shici many times. Compared with other generals, Tai Shi Ci's experience is almost legendary, Sun Ce put his son He Qi and Tai Shi Ci side by side, even if there is a polite component, this evaluation is very high, and it will be spread out in the future, and the He family will have a lot of face.

He Qi was also surprised. He wasn't as happy as He Fu, but he was a little confused. "The prince of the government has won the award, and he is ashamed to be ashamed."

"Dare to be, dare to be." Sun Ce smiled happily from the depths of his heart. His words are not exaggerated at all, He Qi can probably be regarded as the strongest one among the generals of the Huiji, and it is definitely not comparable to Dong Xi, Quan Rou and others. But he was affected by the He family, because the Huiji family did not cooperate with Sun Ce and Sun Quan's brothers, he was killed too hard, and he has not been able to recover his vitality, and has been suppressed, although He Qi has repeatedly made military exploits, and was later sealed as the Marquis of Shanyin, but he did not get the opportunity to play a full role, most of the time he dealt with Shanyue, and Wei Shu did not have many opportunities, until the Jianghuai generals passed away one after another, he had the opportunity to be alone, but at that time he was also old and past his peak.

As a general, age is important, and veterans are experienced, but their energy can't keep up.

Without a strong enough opponent, no matter how great his feats are, He Qi will not be able to exert his true strength. Now he has changed his strategy and tried his best to have a good relationship with the Huiji family, so that he doesn't need to suppress He Qi, he can use it freely and give him a broader stage. Of course, Yamagoe wants to fight, but that's just an appetizer, not a real meal.

Sun Ce exchanged a few words with He Qi, and asked He Qi directly about his views on the current situation.

He Qi knew that this was the exam, and whether the results of the exam were good or not was directly related to his starting point under Sun Ce. He didn't dare to slack off, organized the language, and talked eloquently. Today's banquet was prepared for him by He Fu, and he is the protagonist of course, so naturally he will not fail to prepare. But he knows better that Sun Ce is not a scholar like Guo Yi, he is a famous general with great military achievements and fame at a young age, and he is by no means fooled by anyone, if he does not have insight, it is difficult for him to be recognized by Sun Ce.

"The Ming Mansion is a native of Wuhui, so it naturally wants to take Wuhui as the foundation. Wu Hui's long in the water, Wu Hui's short in the horse, want to chase the Central Plains, the Ming Mansion needs to defend instead of attacking, in order to wait for its disadvantages. If you want to guard Wuhui, you should guard the river. If you want to defend the river, you should guard Pengcheng and Suiyang in the north, guard the river in the west, guard Jiangling and Nanchang in the west, and guard the Three Gorges. Consolidate its realm on the outside, strengthen its heart on the inside, and then lead the children of Jiangdong to run rampant all over the world......"

Sun Ce listened very carefully. Strategically speaking, there are not too many new things, the situation of mountains and rivers has remained unchanged for thousands of years, and everyone who has a heart understands it, so there is not much difference between He Qi's strategic analysis and Guo Jia's and Zhang Hong's views, and even the discussion is still insufficient, but in terms of tactics, He Qi's opinions are unique. Based on Wu Hui, he looked at the world and put forward a more realistic view.

Wu will lack horses, this is a fact, no matter whether Sun Ce bought horses from Liangzhou and Liaodong, or took the enemy's horses for his own use, he could not change his shortcomings in cavalry. But Wu will have a lot of water and mountains, and the usefulness of cavalry is limited, so there is no need to rush for a while. When running Wuhui, we should give full play to the advantages of Wuhui people in water warfare and vigorously develop the water division. With a powerful sailor, you can control the Yangtze River. If you control the Yangtze River, you will be able to protect Wu Hui. Even if the Central Plains are contested in the future, the naval division can play the role of transporting grain, grass, and troops, greatly reducing the pressure on logistics and supplies.

In addition to the water master, He Qi also suggested that Sun Ce recruit Shanyue. In addition to the normal conquest, he also suggested that Sun Ce open up wasteland between the mountains and establish townships and counties. He has been fighting for many years, and he has a good understanding of the mountainous areas south of Huiji, not to look at the mountains and mountains, which seem to be a wild land, but in fact, there are a lot of cultivated land distributed among the mountains, and there are hundreds of people cultivating them. Those people are still in the primitive state of slash-and-burn farming, with limited output and no etiquette, if they are educated, taught how to farm, and increase production, they can also provide a lot of food and troops.

Sun Ce agreed with He Qi's opinion. Although there are many mountains and little land in the southeast, that is only the overall situation, and there is still a lot of potential to be tapped in this area, not to mention that the small mountain basins in Zhejiang have not been fully developed. After the Yongjia Rebellion, the Jingkang Rebellion, and the two collapses of the Central Plains Dynasty, the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty were in a corner of peace, and they could survive for more than a hundred years, relying on the economic strength of the southeast, not to mention that in the Ming and Qing dynasties, the southeast occupied half of the world's wealth.

He Qi can't see that far, but as a Huiji, he has a strong sense of the countryside and personal experience, which is more practical than the Central Plains people who look at flowers in the fog with prejudice, and the suggestions he puts forward are also more operable.

Sun Ce immediately introduced him to Guo Jia and Pang Tong, and after Guo Jia and He Qi communicated, they also agreed with Sun Ce's opinion, He Qi's personal force is not as comprehensive as Tai Shi Ci, but his ability as a general is no less than that of Tai Shi Ci, and he is a general who can take charge alone. In particular, his expertise in the Shanyue War could play a major role in the next Yuzhang War. However, this is only an insight, and the actual ability to command troops still needs to be tested in actual combat, otherwise the generals may have opinions.

Sun Ce also had such worries. He Qi did have a talent for soldiers, but he was just groping for himself, and his opponents were some bandits, and the gold content of his battle was insufficient, and he was suddenly promoted to a high position, and others would think that this was because of the influence of the He family, but it was not good for He Qi. Moreover, he has always been committed to weakening the influence of his background on the generals, and how many people He Qi can lead should be linked to his ability and uniformly deployed, rather than receiving as many people as the He family can afford. It is still unclear whether Ho Qi will fit into the atmosphere he has created.

He Qike is a very proud person. He has talent and wealth, and he never hides this, and his subordinates' weapons, flags, and ships are all first-class goods, making them magnificent, lest others not know that he has money, and drag him to the point where he has no friends.

Such a person is, to put it nicely, maverick and individual, and unconventional to put it badly. How to make good use of such a person is a test of leadership level, if he does not pay attention to it, he is wronged, and attaches too much importance to it, and others will have opinions, which will affect the overall unity.

Sun Ce looked at He Qi, who was hovering among the guests, with three points of pride on his face, and wondered whether he should arrange a drill to kill his majesty. Pang Tong tugged at Sun Ce's sleeve and reminded him to look at Sun Quan. Sun Ce turned his head and saw that Sun Quan was no longer in the seat, standing at the gate of the courtyard, probing his brain, not knowing what he was looking at.

Sun Ce frowned. In the courtyard next door are the female dependents, Feng Wan and Huang Yueying are there, and the female dependents of the He family and other guests are also there, what is this kid doing there? He gave Lu Yi a look and asked him to call Sun Quan back. After a while, Sun Quan came back, tiptoed over to Sun Ce, and whispered in his ear: "Big brother, the daughter of the Xie family is a beauty, I like her." Can you help me propose? ”

Sun Ce turned his head, looked at him, and couldn't help but smile: "How old are you, and you want to propose?" ”

Sun Quan stalked his neck. "I'm already twelve, and Pang Shiyuan was about the same age as me when he took a fancy to Zhang Zifu. If you can help him, you won't help me? ”

Sun Ce pursed the corners of his lips. Sun Quan immediately put on a smiling face and begged, "Big brother, help me." That girl was about the same age as me, and if she hadn't proposed earlier, she might have been snatched away at some point. They now have a request from their brother, and if the brother mentions it, it will definitely be done. ”
