Chapter 366: Trying to Capture the Past

"Ahem, it's time for me to tell a story again." Li Yan didn't get serious at all because Yang Tinghe moved a small bench, but invited the two pavilion elders into the room even more narcissistically, and then said something quite self-feeling.

"Ahem......"

"Huh? Poof......"

The two who were drinking tea sprayed at the same time......

Li Yan's face was faintly green, this group of pedants, no wonder Zhu Houzhao didn't like them, and didn't take into account the feelings of others at all......

Li Yan felt sorry for myself for a long time, and then suddenly asked in the stunned eyes of the two people.

"Have you heard the story of Zhuge Liang's seven captures of Meng Shu?"

Zhuge Liang captured Meng seven times? The two of them were stunned at the same time, Zhuge Liang and they had heard of it, but they really didn't know who this Meng Shu was!

"You haven't read "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"?" Li Yan asked inexplicably.

Li Dongyang and Yang Tinghe shook their heads at the same time, they hadn't heard it.

Li Yan is different, but at the same time, a smile flashed on his face, sure enough, he is a good gentleman who only reads sage books, and he has never read a book or anything like that, it's good if he hasn't heard it, and I can't let you listen to it if you haven't heard it.

"Things are born in ......" Li Yan immediately entered the role of Mr. Storyteller, with a fan, and he looked like one.

……

…………

In fact, what Li Yan told Li Dongyang and Yang Tinghe is just a familiar story in the eyes of modern people...... And it's a children's story.

Zhuge Liang's seven captures of Meng Shu are a wonderful example of "wanting to capture and indulge" in military history.

After the establishment of Shu Han, the Northern Expedition was planned. At that time, Meng Shu, the chief of Southwest Yi, led an army of 100,000 to invade Shu. In order to solve the worries of the Northern Expedition, Zhuge Liang decided to personally lead his troops to level Meng Shu first. The main force of the Shu army reached near Lushui, lured the enemy to battle, and laid an ambush in the valley in advance.

In the last years of the two Jin Dynasty, Wang Jun, the governor of Youzhou, tried to rebel and usurp the throne. After hearing the news, Shi Le, a famous general of the Jin Dynasty, planned to eliminate Wang Jun's troops. Wang Jun's power is strong, and Shi Le is afraid that it will be difficult to win for a while. He decided to adopt the strategy of "wanting to capture the old and indulge" to paralyze Wang Jun, and he sent Wang Zichun, a doorman, to bring a large number of pearl treasures and present Wang Jun. and wrote a letter to Wang Jun to express his support for him as the Son of Heaven. The letter said that now the society is declining, the Central Plains has no owner, and only you are powerful and qualified to be the emperor. Wang Zichun added oil and vinegar to the side, saying that Wang Jun was happy in his heart and believed it. At this time, Wang Jun had a subordinate named You Tong,

Waiting for an opportunity to rebel against Wang Jun. You Tong wanted to find Shi Le as a backer, but Shi Le killed You Tong and gave You Tong to Wang Jun. This made Wang Jun absolutely relieved of Shi Le.

In 314 A.D., Shi Letan heard that Youzhou suffered a flood, and the people had no food, Wang Jun disregarded the life and death of the people, and levied miscellaneous taxes, which increased unabated, the people's grievances boiled, and the army's morale fluctuated. Shile personally led his troops to attack Youzhou. In April of this year, Shi Le's troops arrived in Youzhou City, and Wang Jun was still in the dark, thinking that Shi Le had come to support him as emperor and was not prepared for war at all. When he was suddenly captured by the Shile soldiers, he woke up like a dream. Wang Jun fell for Shi Le's plan to "capture the old and indulge", and his dream came to naught.

The goal of capturing the enemy commander has been achieved, and the enemy army will not have strong combat effectiveness for a while. However, Zhuge Liang considered that Meng Huo had a high prestige and great influence in the southwest, and if he was convinced and took the initiative to surrender, he would be able to make the south truly stable. Otherwise, the various tribes of Nanyi will still not stop invading, and it will be difficult to stabilize the rear. Zhuge Liang decided to take a "heart-attacking" battle against Meng Huo and categorically released Meng Huo. Meng Yu said that he would be able to defeat you next time, but Zhuge Liang smiled and did not answer. Meng returned to the camp, towed all the boats, and guarded the south bank of Lushui to prevent the Shu army from crossing the river. Zhuge Liang took advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness to smuggle across the river from the enemy's undefended lower stream and attacked Meng Shu's granary. Meng Huo was furious and wanted to severely punish the soldiers and provoke the soldiers to resist, so they agreed to surrender, and took advantage of Meng Shu's unpreparedness to tie Meng Huo to the Shu camp. Zhuge Liang saw that Meng was still unconvinced, and released him again. Later, Meng Shu used many more strategies, but Zhuge Liang saw through them, and he was captured four times and released four times. For the last time, Zhuge Liang burned Meng Huo's rattan armor soldiers, and captured Meng Huo for the seventh time. Finally moved Meng Shu, he sincerely thanked Zhuge Liang for his grace of not killing seven times, and vowed not to fight again. Since then, the southwest of Shu has been stable, and Zhuge Liang was able to raise troops for the Northern Expedition.

This is a very classic trick to capture and indulge, Zhuge Liang played this trick very well, it can be called a lot of flowers, there is no one before and no one after him, and now Li Yan also wants to follow the example of the ancients, to see if he can also come to a play like Zhuge Liang, but Li Yan doesn't want to play with Liu Jin as many as seven times, just once.

……

…………

Liu Jin is very proud now, his subordinates not only have the East Factory, but also come to the West Factory by the way, and the combination of East and West is really invincible in the world.

Father-in-law Liu now wants to stand on the street and shout angrily: I have two factories, who dares not to obey?

There are too many people who have taken refuge in Liu Jin in the past few days, and many civil officials who used to have a firm stance have also turned into grass on the wall and fell to Liu Jin's side, and Liu Jin's flattering appearance has been extremely useful, which can be called a great supplement, so ...... Gonggong Liu is now floating again.

"Come on, take out the yellow horse that His Majesty has newly given to the miscellaneous family!"

"Come on, make the tea that Xiao Liuzi gave to the miscellaneous family from Jiangnan!"

"Someone! Show the miscellaneous family who has given gifts to the miscellaneous family in the past few days! ”

"Jin Yiwei's side will give the miscellaneous family a little less, a little less, and a little less, hey, that's it, that's it!"

……

…………

Liu Jin floated, and he didn't even check Li Yan's movements, not knowing that Li Yan was having a banquet for two people in the largest restaurant in the capital tonight, two people he was very familiar with.

Gao Feng, Zhang Yong.

Huibin Building, the newly emerging restaurant in Beijing, stepped on all the restaurants in Beijing like a storm in just one month, becoming the first in Beijing.

There are also people who are indignant and have led people to find trouble with Huibinhu, and Huibin Hug does not resist, but the next day these people who came to find trouble were all included in the ranks of gangsters by Jinyiwei and hung on the wall of Jinyiwei's edict, and then everyone knew that the characters behind this restaurant were not ordinary.

……

…………

Gao Feng and Zhang Yong stood in the arms of the guests in a daze, looking at the place in front of them that they knew that it was a gold cave at first sight, they were a little stunned, and the two of them glanced at each other, both of them saw the consternation in each other's eyes, and there was a trace of ...... Frightened?

What did this man do with the two of them? The down-and-out phoenix is not as good as a chicken, could it be that he made a special trip to ridicule himself?

The two of them had a ghost in their hearts, took out the invitation, and walked upstairs.
