Thank you to Mr. Chengde, a book friend, just six words, and a book friend Fan Minhan, have something to say, book friend 16***068, Wu Zhiyang's reward, thank you for your recommendation and monthly pass, please continue to support Xiaoxin, thank you!

Because what Xi Zhicai said earlier happened to be in Yan Xing's mind, so the words behind also made Yan Xing, who didn't care about it before, suddenly pay attention to it, he looked at Xi Zhicai, and asked,

"Why?"

Xi Zhicai still smiled, but he was reluctant to speak.

Yan Xing waited for a while, didn't wait for Xi Zhi to speak, and soon understood, he turned around, loudly ordered outside the tent, and told Da Niu that in the next period of time, it was not an emergency military situation, and he would not see anyone.

Looking at Yan Xing, who was looking at Xi Zhicai again, a smile appeared on his face, and he said with a smile:

"The drama is a great talent, everything Fang Cai said is in line with my wishes, I bluntly said that Yan was sick before, but Yan now believes it, it is a heart disease! Please also invite the drama gentleman to sit down, don't be too glamorous and shallow, and talk carefully about the crux of the problem for me! ”

Xi Zhicai was not polite, and said, "Captain, please." Then he found the nearest seat at the lower head and sat down, and Yan Xing thought about it, and did not return to the main seat of the upper head, but brought a pu seat, and then sat opposite Xi Zhicai, and made a gesture of deference.

Xi Zhicai stretched out two fingers, began to pick up the previous words, and continued:

"There is a reason why the lieutenant is too hasty. If my prediction is correct, the captain is not only checking the deficiencies and omissions in the account books of the county temple, but has also sent people to secretly investigate the lawlessness of the county temple officials and the powerful remnants of the city. ”

Sure enough, Xi Zhi only got a glimpse of the whole leopard, and he had already thought of Yan Xing's other actions from the account books.

Yan Xing didn't hide it, nodded and admitted.

And Xi Zhicai saw that Yan Xing did not deliberately hide it from himself, and also smiled.

"That's good, the captain retrieved the account books of the county temple, presumably he had already shocked the officials of the county temple before, and the other party must have taken precautions, and I don't know if he can succeed if he acted in secret?"

Seeing Yan Xing's mouth open, Xi Zhicai continued:

"Then we don't care if we can succeed, even if the matter is done, I don't know how the captain will act if he gets the evidence of the crimes of the county temple officials and the strong surname, whether to ask the crime directly, or to play the county government?"

Yan Xing heard Xi Zhicai's question, his face was contemplative, this is also what he is entangled in his heart, although he is a lieutenant, but he is an official in charge of military affairs, this accountability of dereliction of duty officials, investigation and handling of illegal and powerful things, has nothing to do with him.

If Yan Xing's goal of completely controlling Jiangyi and stabilizing the people's livelihood in a city was to achieve the goal of completely controlling Jiangyi and stabilizing the people's livelihood in a city, he would either use soldiers and horses to forcibly investigate and deal with the law-breaking officials and lawless tyrants, or he would use these criminal evidence to make deals with the county temple officials and the tycoons in the city in exchange for their compromise and cooperation.

However, both of these approaches have their drawbacks. After coercing the transaction, it is not easy for the officials and powerful who temporarily compromise and cooperate to control it, and they may bite back on themselves anytime and anywhere.

As for the Shangju County Government, Yan Xing didn't think about it at all, not to mention whether the county government would handle it impartially and punish these children with big surnames and local heroes, even if the Hedong County Government really punished it, asked for the guilt, removed the old officials, and then came a new batch of trial officials, this is still contrary to Yan Xing's purpose of comprehensively controlling Jiangyi, and it has no practical meaning at all.

Now that Xi Zhicai has talked about this problem that he is entangled in, Yan Xing is thinking about whether to open his mouth to seek Xi Zhicai's opinion. Unexpectedly, Xi Zhicai had already changed his words, and then said:

"If the captain hasn't made a decision on this matter, then we might as well ignore it for the first time and jump directly to the next thing, the problems of the county temple officials and the powerful in the city have been solved, and the people's livelihood in Jiangyi has also settled down, but how should the captain deal with himself?"

"It must be known that the captain acts like this, and is most taboo by the local surname Haoqiang and the officials of the Hedong County Government, and the slander of the captain in Anyi City must be very loud, the captain was born in the army, and he is under the command of Niu Zhonglang, or he does not have to worry about the pressure of the county government and Haoyou for the time being, but in order to protect himself, after the captain is settled, he will inevitably ask for thieves, so there will be problems again."

"The captain is anxious to beg the thief, and if he is defeated, he will be defeated and killed, and there will be no bones left. If you win, you will break the axis lightly and cause trouble to the wall. Imagine that Niu Zhonglang will hold a large army and have been defeated repeatedly, while the captain has 3,000 soldiers and horses, but he can subdue the thieves. ”

"Weak stems and strong branches, if they are not broken, they will be draped. Niu Zhonglang will already be jealous, at this time, the general will be suspicious, coupled with the previous slander from the county officials and the big surname Haoyou, the school captain is self-controlled, but he is worried about his life? ”

"Shhh

After listening to Xi Zhicai's words, Yan Xing couldn't help but gasp, feeling a faint chill on his back, and cold sweat began to penetrate his armor.

It is true that he acted too quickly, did not plan well, and did not think about it thoroughly, so that not only did his actions have loopholes, but also did not think about and prepare in advance for the aftermath of the results.

As Xi Zhicai said, there is indeed a failure and worries about the safety of his life.

Yan Xing thought about this, and when he looked at Xi Zhicai again, he was already in admiration, "The wise man sees the unsprouted, and the fool is secretly successful", Xi Zhicai is not only strategic, but also has a far better view of the overall situation than ordinary people.

He thought back to when Xi Zhicai entered the account, he said that he had come to treat himself, and now that he had analyzed his condition so clearly in what he had just said, he must have known the method of curing the disease.

So, Yan Xing hurriedly got up and left the table, bowed to Xi Zhicai, and said sincerely:

"Mr. is talented, he knows the end of the day, predicts the end of misfortune and fortune, Yan has been taught, but he doesn't know how to get rid of illness and get rid of diseases, Mr. can teach me!"

"I came here for this matter, and I would like to explain a thing or two more for the captain."

Xi Zhicai avoided Yan Xing's salute and continued:

"As I just said, the end of the disease is urgent and slow, and it is necessary to prescribe medicine for the symptoms before the disease can be eliminated. Since it was said that the captain was too anxious and had three drawbacks, then he also planned three strategies for the captain, or he could try it to eliminate the disease for the captain. ”

"The first thing is to show it in a hurry, and to show it privately ······ publicly"

Xi Zhicai talked eloquently, not only guessing seven or eight points of what Yan Xing planned to implement, but also pointed out the shortcomings in it, and began to offer ways to check and fill in the gaps.

Slowly, Yan Xing told the details of the plan, negotiated with Xi Zhicai about the gains and losses, and then made a decision, constantly improving Yan Xing's original plan to calm the people and fight the thieves.

After the two of them had roughly finished talking about things, as Xi Zhicai expected, it was almost dark, Yan Xing laughed and got up, ordered the soldiers to prepare an extra evening meal, lit a candle flame, invited Xi Zhicai to have a twilight meal together, and planned to continue to talk with Xi Zhicai and discuss all night.

Under the candlelight, Xi Zhicai's originally indifferent face gradually turned red, and his emotions became a little excited with his words.

These days, he stayed in Yan Xing's army, because he had Yan Xing's permission, but he acted cheaply, so he generally knew about Yan Xing's camp, and he also learned a lot about Jiangyi through familiar scribes and sergeants.

After combining this information, Xi Zhicai has been thinking hard for many days, and has planned many strategies for Yan Xing in advance, and now, this effort has finally not been in vain, and it has all come in handy, and Xi Zhicai has spoken freely to express his ambitions.

When it comes to the back, it becomes that Yan Xing has broken up the matter of begging for thieves and the people, and asked Xi Zhicai for countermeasures one by one, and Xi Zhicai also knew everything and answered them one by one.

For Anmin, he advocated "respecting sovereignty, teaching officials, going to the heavy, and leniency of the peasants", and for begging thieves, he suggested that "rewards and punishments, order No. 1, armor soldiers, and fortify the city defense" first······

After listening to Xi Zhicai's strategy of currying over thieves and people, Yan Xing couldn't help but praise it with his palms, and said with a smile in his mouth:

"Drama Jun Dacai, this time I came to offer advice, not only cured my heart disease, but also relieved my thirst for talent!"

Speaking of this, Yan Xing changed his words, put away his smile, looked at Xi Zhicai with a serious face, and said sincerely:

"I intend to use the drama to seek the history of the army in the camp, I don't know if the drama is willing to succumb, counsel the military affairs for me, and make up for the shortcomings from time to time."

Yan Xing is now a captain of more than 2,000 stones, although he is only a "miscellaneous captain", and he cannot set up subordinate officials such as engaged and Cheng under his account, but he has the power to set up officials according to events, and the official rank ranges from 100 stones to 300 stones.

Like Zheng Duo and Huang Po are his scholars, Zhou Liang is his history of dealing with things, and now he has given Xi Zhicai a history of military strategy, which is already the highest position of clerk that Yan Xing can give at the moment.

Xi Zhicai heard Yan Xing's solicitation, this time he thought about it, but he did not refuse, but immediately left the table and got up, came to the tent to bow down, saluted Yan Xing, and said:

"The soldier dies for his confidant, and he is loved by the captain, and he is willing to do his best to repay the captain's kindness!"

"Great goodness, I have a talent, and I have a wise man."

Yan Xing immediately laughed and got up, came to Xi Zhicai, and stretched out his arms to help Xi Zhicai up.

After Xi Zhicai got up, he looked at Yan Xing and spoke again.

"Since the Ming Duke has appointed the post of military planning history, then there is one more thing to ask for in the military strategy."

"It's okay to be outspoken."

"I have heard that people are soft-spoken and resourceful. Even if there is a clever plan, the prestige of the person who plots the matter is not there, and it is often folded in the mouths of the people. Therefore, he is planning for the history of the army, knowing that he is ugly and not enough to have prestige, and he is willing to ask ten soldiers to help the ambition of the work. ”

Hearing that Xi Zhicai asked for ten guards from the armor, he looked at Xi Zhicai's black and white, deep and dense eyes.

Yan Xing smiled.
