Chapter 492: Vain Conspiracy (Ask for Subscription!) )
…
Traveling in the dark of night is never a pleasant experience.
Ma Kuo couldn't help but say, "Can't you wait until dawn to see your family's Grand Governor?" ”
Liu Qi said with a smile: "I should have sent you to see the Governor of Dadu as soon as possible, seeing that you worked hard all the way to let you eat enough on the road." ”
Ma Kuo said: "Bah, Bah, crow's mouth...... Tell me the truth, are you afraid that most of your family governors will be suspicious of you? ”
Liu Qi smiled and said: "You don't have to be tempted, my family's governor absolutely believes in me, and I also absolutely believe in my family's governor, I just don't want to leave a handle for those officials, you don't know, how annoying those officials are, and they will advise on everything, that is, the governor of my family, it is estimated that they can't stand it if they are replaced by any other monarch." ”
Ma Kuo said: "During the period of Renzong, Yongxi in the four seas, the eight wildernesses were calm, the farmers were happy, the civil and military were loyal, and the ministers did not dare to admonish, and the collapse of the Beijing division was crying in the alleys of the city, and it was endless for several days, although the beggars and children all burned paper money and cried before the big inside, the Liao Daozong heard its collapse, rushed forward and grabbed the hand of our Great Song Dynasty envoy and cried bitterly and said: "Forty-two years do not know the military revolution." He also said: "I will build him a well-clothed mound, send his sorrows, and bow down again, and then say: 'If I am born in China, but I will hold on to it, and cover it with all the ears of Yu Hou'er!'" Isn't it a hundred times stronger than most of your governors?"
Liu Qi was silent for a while, and said: "If you Song State is now reigning Emperor Renzong, I think there will be no governor of my family, and there will be no predicament of the Great Song Dynasty today...... I have served your family officials for three years, and it is undeniable that he is also a generous monarch, but he is too poor and extravagant, and he is a traitor, blindly believing in Taoist priests, and restless about himself. ”
Ma Kuo's expression was solemn, and he said: "The king humiliates the ministers to death, Liu Tong, please pay attention to your words and deeds!" ”
Seeing this, Liu Qi said: "Look, a capable and loyal courtier like you is just a small proclaimer, if you come to our Shuibo Liangshan, I dare not guarantee that most of my governors will teach you to lead an army alone or to govern the party." ”
Ma Kuo was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart: "Didn't I come to descend on you, why did you come to descend on me?" ”
Liu Qi said again: "Your talent and courage, I know best, it is too wasteful to be in the Song Kingdom, so come to our side, I will teach you to be useful." ”
Ma Kuo laughed and said, "I know that Uncle Xin is your person, and I didn't open my mouth to persuade you, why did you persuade me to be Ma Zichong?" ”
Liu Qi said: "You don't persuade me, not only because you know that my uncle is not a person with the heart of a second minister, but also because you know that I am doing well and are happy for me." I advise you, not because I think you Ma Zichong is a two-minded person, but because I know that your Ma Zichong is not doing well, and it is difficult for you to have a chance to play your talents over there, so I can't help but persuade you to try. ”
Liu Qi immediately smiled and said, "Moreover, you don't know much about the governor of my family, and he is sometimes very domineering, huh...... To be precise, he will do whatever it takes to achieve the goal, and the people he fancies, whether they are men or women, will try their best to get them, you don't know, many of our officials in Shuibo Liangshan were actually tied back by him, including Zhao Xianggong, the Xuanfu envoy who is now in charge of all political affairs in Yundi, if you Ma Zichong is favored by him, most likely you will not be able to go back to the Song Kingdom. ”
Ma Kuo was surprised: "He's so domineering? Can that govern the country well? ”
Liu Qi said: "He is domineering externally, and he is obedient to the inside, and dares to let go, or take Yundi as an example, he completely handed over political affairs to Zhao Xianggong to deal with, except for occasionally taking out a few policies to discuss with Zhao Xianggong and regularly listen to Zhao Xianggong's reports, he doesn't care about anything, and then in the army, life matters are responsible for the political commissars of the army, and the war is the responsibility of our army commanders, he has never blindly commanded from us, of course, the officers are appointed by him, and we only have the right to recommend." ”
Ma Kuoqi said: "He is not afraid that you will take the army away?" ”
Liu Qi smiled and said: "We won't, and we can't take it away, there are ...... in all our armies", thinking that Ma Kuo was not a person from Liangshan, Liu Qi did not tell Ma Kuo about the Political Department, but said vaguely: "In short, no one in the Liangshan Army can take away, except for most of my family, so your designation this time is in vain." ”
Ma Kuo said: "Not necessarily, but not everyone is your Uncle Liu Xin." ”
Liu Qi didn't explain to Ma Kuo the power of the Political Department.
In Liu Qi's view, as long as there is a political department, it is possible for the Great Song Dynasty to poach a few people, after all, there are people who are not strong-willed everywhere, but if you want to poach the army, it is pure wishful thinking.
Liu Qi smiled: "Then you can wait and see." ”
Seeing that Liu Qi was so determined, Ma Kuo was a little uncertain, he knew Liu Qi very well, and knew that Liu Qi was definitely not the kind of person who talked about it, so Liu Qi must have something to rely on.
After thinking about it, Ma Kuo really couldn't think of what Liu Qi relied on, so he could only shake his head with a smile, and then said, "Aren't you curious about what conditions Master Tong gave you?" Ma Kuo is not a person who gives up easily.
Liu Qi smiled and said: "I can teach you Ma Zichong to persuade me, the conditions should not be bad, let me guess, should it be to teach me to replace the handsome?" ”
This is what Ma Kuo admires most about Liu Qi - both self-confidence and not conceited, which is the necessary psychological quality of an excellent commander.
Ma Kuoxin said: "Maybe Li Yan saw this advantage of Uncle Xin that he let Uncle Xin command an army of 100,000." ”
Although he thought so, Ma Kuo said, "Are you tempted?" ”
Liu Qi shook his head and said: "I replace the old marshal, and I can't win the battle of Baigou River, the old marshal is a general, and his experience and ability are above me, he lost because your Song army was not fully prepared, and he didn't even think about fighting that battle. ”
Ma Kuo was silent, his summary of the defeat of Baigou River was completely consistent with Liu Qi, and that battle was not something that could be avoided by changing a commander at all.
Moreover, at that time, the commander of the Eastern Route Army was only the commander of the Eastern Route Army, the commander of the Western Route Army was Xin Xingzong, and the commander-in-chief was Tong Guan.
Liu Qi said: "I can win the battle of Qingshuihe, not because of how strong my command ability is, but because my metropolitan governor sat in front of the battle for me, so that the whole army listened to my command and obeyed my drive. Speaking of this, Liu Qi looked at Ma Kuo and said: "With such a monarch and such a commander, let you Ma Zichong command the battle of Qingshui River, and you can also win...... How could I betray the Governor if he treated me like this? ”
Ma Kuo's mood was extremely complicated when he heard this, how much he hoped that Zhao Ji and Tong Guan could also support the Seed Master Dao like Li Yan supported Liu Qi, in that case, their Great Song Dynasty would not be as passive as it is today......
