Chapter 461: Knowing People
Jiangdong Moling {Nanjing} Sun Quan received Zhuge Liang in the palace of King Wu.
Mr. Kong Ming, I don't know how many soldiers Zhang Jie has? And when will it go south? Sun Quan asked.
Kong Mingdao: There are about 150,000 cavalry and 150,000 infantry. There should be more than 300,000 people in total.
Sun Quandao: How can you see it?
Kong Mingdao: Ming Gong should know that Zhang Jie raised 300,000 troops to attack Cao Cao and Yuan Shao in the Central Plains, and according to later intelligence, Zhang Jie transferred a total of 280,000 horses at that time. This does not include Liaodong, and some of the state's defense against foreign races.
After the Central Plains War, although Zhang Jie suffered heavy casualties, after all, Zhang Jie won and there were many prisoners. In recent years, Zhang Jie has not recruited troops aggressively. But there are still more than 100,000 standing soldiers and horses.
At the beginning, Zhang Jie was able to send 300,000 troops only in Sanzhou, but now that most of the world is in hand, it is not too difficult to raise 300,000 troops.
As for the war horses, to be honest, Liang only estimates that most of the horse-breeding land in the Han Dynasty is in the hands of Zhang Jie, and if Zhang Jie is happy, it is not surprising that all the soldiers will become cavalry.
Sun Quan nodded and said, "Then how does Kong Ming think we should deal with it?" What are the odds of winning?
Kong Mingdao: If Ming Gong forms an alliance with my lord, there is a 30% chance of winning.
Only 30 percent? How is it so little? Sun Quan said.
Kong Mingdao: The battle between the two armies is not only more than the number of soldiers and horses, but also more than the brave soldiers and strategists.
If you fight for the number of soldiers, my lord can send 100,000 troops. Wu Hou can at least send 100,000 troops. Our numbers are not much smaller than Zhang Jie.
However, Wu Hou should know that Zhang Jie's soldiers and horses are mostly veterans who have been in the army for many years and have rich combat experience. And well-equipped.
The generals under him have been fighting for many years and have led the troops well. Such as Zhang He, Ju Yi, Wei Yan, Zhao Yun, Xu Huang, Zhang Liao, Hao Zhao, etc. are all famous generals! It's not a wasted name.
Speaking of strategists, Jia Xu, Fu Zhu, Tian Feng, Pang Tong, and Sima Yi are all wise and resourceful.
In fact, these strategists are not afraid. Deal with them with confidence. Liang is afraid of Zhang Jie himself. This person is terrible. Unfathomable!
Yell! What is so scary about Zhang Jie? Sun Quan asked.
Kong Mingdao: Zhang Jie was born in the market, and if you want to say how knowledgeable he is, it is purely a compliment to him.
But this person has a kind of ability, which few people can compare. I'm afraid that the big man can't find a second one in the world.
Lu Sudao: Kong Ming, what kind of ability does Zhang Jie have to be so harmful?
Zhuge Liang said: Know people, know how to use people.
Acquaintances? What does this mean? Sun Quan said.
Zhuge Liang said: It's strange to say, Zhang Jie only needs to look at it to know what this person is capable of. At the beginning of Lumen Academy, Liang had met Zhang Jie once. At that time, Zhang Jie could see at a glance the skills of Pang Shiyuan and Liang. It's weird.
If Zhang Jie was here, he would laugh, and if you were born a thousand years later, you would be the same.
Wu Hou, from Zhang Jie's employment, you can see his ability. Wei Yan was only a captain in Jingzhou, and he was immediately a general under Zhang Jie's account.
What's even more strange is that last time Ma Teng Han attacked Luoyang. Zhang Jiepai, Zhao Yun, Wei Yan, Dian Wei, and Hao Zhao rescued Luoyang. But he worshiped Hao Zhao as the main general, and let Zhao Yun and many other generals obey Hao Zhao's orders. This shows that Hao Zhao is definitely a good general.
Now send Hao Zhao to stay in Chang'an. Liang thought that this person must have something extraordinary. Because he sent Xu Yu to Ma Teng as a military advisor, it was even more unexpected. Xu Yu helped Ma Teng unify Xiliang under Ma Teng's tent, how could Ma Teng not reuse it? It's just that I didn't expect this to be a dose of poison from Zhang Jie. In the first battle of Jieting, 80,000 soldiers were wiped out in three days.
Zhang Jie began to lay out two years ago, using Xu Youben to be Yuan Shao's military advisor, and the psychology of avenging Yuan Shao made Ma Teng scheming. What a scheming! To be honest, Liang is not sure about Zhang Jie.
Sun Quandao: Zijing persuaded Gu to form an alliance with Xuande Gong to deal with Zhang Jie together. Lone also has this intention, but Jingzhou is Liu Qi's. Why don't you and my family send troops together to take Jingzhou first, and then you and I form an alliance?
Zhuge Liang said: Absolutely not! If Wu Hou and my lord send troops to Jingzhou, it will not be difficult to take the four counties of Jingnan while they are unprepared.
It's just that this will push Liu Qi to Zhang Jie! If Zhang Jie gets the Jingzhou naval army, it will be a big threat to Jiangdong. Wu Hou can only persuade Liu Qi to form an alliance with us and deal with Zhang Jie together. Only a three-way alliance can be assured!
Sun Quan thought for a while and said, "If you want, Kong Ming, you persuaded Gu." Gu Pai Zijing went to Xiangyang with you to meet Liu Qi. Discuss the alliance of the three families.
Xie Wuhou.
In Luoyang, Chen Qun brought the rank of officials, as well as court clothes, to Wei Houfu.
Lord, please take a look, this is according to what you said about the nine grades, the eighteenth rank, including the cabinet scholars, Taihedian scholars. are all knighthoods and titles.
Thorn history, is the third grade, or from the second grade. Too observant from the third grade or the fourth grade. And so on......
Zhang Jie said, yes, it's just that this grade is not only available to these officials on the surface, but also those behind-the-scenes staff, such as the main book of Taishou, which should also be given an eight-grade and nine-grade grade.
Long article, this grade is not only a rank, but also a good fortune according to the rank!
There are also those who are in charge of prisons, public safety, and agriculture. Although this person is only a official, he often has great power in his hands. And it doesn't work without them. Among these people, if they perform well, they should also be given a rank of nine or eight. Let's try to be as thoughtful as possible.
Of course, this is just the beginning. It will gradually improve in the future. In the future, we should also listen to the opinions of those officials who have been in local politics for many years and have experience in politics, and listen to what they have to say.
Promise! The minister wrote it down.
The lord, and the court clothes are also ready, but the lord's nine tin things are not done yet. The minister wanted to hear the thoughts of the lord.
Zhang Jie knew that the so-called Jiuxi refers to chariots and horses, clothes, Geyue, Zhu Hu, Na Ma, Hu Ben, axes, bows and arrows, and beards. Except for the crown on the head, which is nine, and the Son of Heaven is twelve, the rest are the same.
In history, Jiuci, Wang Mang, Cao Cao, Sima Zhao, and Li Yuan all did it, and later the founding emperors of the Song, Qi, Liang, and Chen dynasties all received "nine tin", so "nine tin" became synonymous with usurpation.
Zhang Jie said: Jie has nothing else to ask for, it's just that Jie wants to change the crown dress {dragon robe} to yellow. And this red yellow is for exclusive use of royalty later! No one else shall trespass, otherwise he shall be convicted of treason. And these should be written into the laws of the Great Wei.
Promise! Change it when you go back!
Well, you go back and fix it well. It's done, and I'll take it to Jie first.
Promise!
is about to become king, Zhang Jie is uneasy in his heart. Back in the backyard, Zhen Mi is now mature and more beautiful, and Zhang Jie is also very precious to her.
Zhen Mi saw that Zhang Jie had something on his mind, and said: Brother Shimin, what's wrong with you, why are you so worried?
Zhang Jie said: It's nothing, but I'm thinking that many generals at the border have not seen Jie for many years. Jay is trying to give them a title.
