Fang Yuan appointed Gao Yuanjue as the vanguard, and as soon as Xu Cheng's military order to escort grain and grass in the rear army came out, the entire military camp was in an uproar.

The first to bear the brunt are Gan Hui and Xu Cheng, Gan Hui is the commander of the expeditionary force, and the victory or defeat of this battle is also related to his honor and disgrace, how can he hand over such an important position in the vanguard battalion to a Gao Yuanjue who has no victory?

Xu Cheng was even more unconvinced, he had nothing to say about Najib and Hao Shaoqi as the commander of the pioneer battalion. But given to Gao Yuanjue, he was 10,000 dissatisfied. What's more, Fang Yuan ordered him to take charge of the most basic grain transportation work.

The two came to the Chinese military tent together and asked Fang Yuan for an explanation.

Fang Yuan met with the two quietly, made them serve tea, and said with a smile, "Governor Gan, why are you here?!" ”

Gan Hui has a saying, straight to the point, "Regent, what is the reason why you have repeatedly reused a defeated general?" Before, it was because Gao Yuanjue lost grain and grass that our army was in danger. This expedition to Burma, and you want to send him as a pioneer?! ”

Xu Cheng also chimed in, "Father-in-law, if my skills are not as good as others, I have nothing to say." But Gao Yuanjue can be a pioneer, but I have to escort grain and grass in the rear, I don't accept it! ”

Fang Yuan's gaze patrolled the two of them, and said unhurriedly, "This is a military order, you two dare to openly disobey the military order?" ”

Gan Hui half-knelt in the ground and said, "Regent, it is a matter of success or failure in the war, the life and death of 200,000 soldiers, and the minister cannot but disobey the military order." With the ability of Gao Yuanjue, he must not be a pioneer. I propose to replace the vanguard with Xu Cheng, Xu Zongbing! ”

Xu Cheng also said bluntly, "Father-in-law, I heard that Gao Yuanjue's mother arrived in the military camp a few days ago, and then my father-in-law reactivated Gao Yuanjue. This, is the father-in-law confused! ”

"Whoa!"

All the files on General Fang Yuan's case were swept to the ground, and he stared at Xu Cheng coldly, "Xu Cheng! It turns out that you think I was confused, so I appointed Gao Yuanjue as a pioneer?! How short-sighted you are! ”

Xu Cheng withstood Fang Yuan's anger, but he still didn't give up, "Is there a mistake in the end?" Father-in-law, please make it clear, it's not that you're lost in your mind, what is the reason? ”

Fang Yuan said in a deep voice, "Let me ask you, have you ever dealt with these foreigners in Myanmar?" ”

Xu Cheng shook his head truthfully and said, "No! ”

Fang Yuan asked again, "Let me ask you again, how can you make these Burmese people willingly submit to my Daming?" ”

Xu Cheng replied, "Enwei is used together, when it is suppressed, it is suppressed, and when it is stroking, it is soothed!" ”

Fang Yuan asked, "When should you be suppressed?" When to caress it? ”

Xu Cheng was stunned, thought for a while, and replied, "If you surrender, you will be appeased, and if you resist, you will be suppressed!" ”

Fang Yuan snorted coldly and said, "Wrong! It's all wrong! Xu Cheng, you're just talking on paper! ”

He got up and stared at Gan Hui and Xu Cheng, "The so-called non-our race will have different hearts, and it is not the same thing to ask the Burmese people to surrender and the Dian people to surrender!" ”

"The people of Dian think that they are my people of the Ming Dynasty, and for my people of the Ming Dynasty, they are naturally attacking the heart and attacking the bottom! And the Burmese people, as soon as I enter the territory of Burma, they will regard me as an aggressor, what is the use of attacking the heart? It is just to encourage the arrogance of the Burmese people, thinking that I am afraid of them. ”

Gan Hui and Xu Cheng glanced at each other, their scalps were tingling for a while, and they really didn't expect this. In particular, Gan Hui, who is the commander of the expeditionary force, if he does not even know how to force the Burmese to submit before he sets out, how can he successfully complete the conquest of Burma?

Gan Hui asked hesitantly, "Regent, then, then what should we do?!" ”

Fang Yuan glanced at him, these words were clearly said to Xu Cheng, but they were actually said to Gan Hui, the boss, and continued, "To rule these people who are not of my race, you must first subdue them, kill them, minimize their expectations of Da Ming, and then attack the heart, in order to achieve twice the result with half the effort, understand?!" ”

What Fang Yuan said is the simplest theory of Stockholm disease.

For a person who has just been tied up and rejects you psychologically, the more pleasant you are to him, the higher his psychological expectations, and the more he will not give in.

The best way is to catch him and smoke a few meals, abuse him for a few days, and then starve for a few days, and then you smile at him again, or even throw him a bowl of dog food, and he will treat you as a benefactor.

The same is true between countries, just look at how the United States conquered the Indians and how the British ruled the Indians. The less you treat him as a human being at first, the more obedient he will be to you after that, and giving him a little favor will make him kneel completely!

Fang Yuan saw that the two of them were listening intently, and continued, "The military orders I gave to the Xing family and Gao Yuanjue are actually only five simple words, Wu Yi minus Ding method!" ”

The so-called Wu Yi minus Ding method, in short, is to kill one person for every five Burmese. For each tribe or village, kill one-fifth of the Burmese. It was up to the Burmese people of these tribes and villages to decide who to kill or not, and the Ming army was only responsible for counting the full number of heads.

In this way, it can not only clean up those Burmese who are bloody and want to resist, but also provoke internal strife among the Burmese, which is more conducive to the rule of the Ming Dynasty.

Gan Hui suddenly said, "The regent's idea is that in Burma, it is to slaughter first and then pacify?!" ”

Fang Yuan saw that he had finally come back to his senses and smiled, "Yes, you have to kill them to make their hearts tremble, so that they can truly fear the Ming Dynasty and surrender respectfully!" ”

Xu Cheng understood Fang Yuan's intentions, but what he didn't understand was what this had to do with appointing Gao Yuanjue as a pioneer?

Xu Cheng asked, "Father-in-law, I will do the murder too!" ”

Fang Yuan laughed and said, "Carrying out this kind of bloody killing that exterminates the human race will definitely bear the notoriety, do you want to bear this notoriety?!" ”

"Xu Cheng! You are the governor of Guangxi, Guizhou, Yunnan, and Burma provinces, if you have such a bad name, how can you govern one side?! ”

Xu Cheng was slightly stunned, and finally understood Fang Yuan's good intentions. The bloody killing was handed over to Gao Yuanjue, and the notoriety was borne by Gao Yuanjue. When the time is ripe, Fang Yuan will remove Gao Yuanjue from his post and transfer him back, and Xu Cheng will be responsible for reassuring the Burmese afterwards and winning the hearts of the people.

What Fang Yuan did was not reusing Gao Yuanjue at all, but paving the way for Xu Cheng, the real governor of the four provinces!

Xu Cheng knew that he hadn't comprehended Fang Yuan's mind before, so he rushed straight to the counter, it was too impulsive. He was already moved to tears, and hurriedly knelt on the ground at Fang Yuan and confessed his sin to him, "Father-in-law, I, I am guilty, and I ask my father-in-law to punish me." ”

Fang Yuan laughed and stepped forward to help him up, "Haha, Xu Cheng, I hope you don't want to live up to your cultivation and become my Mu Ying!" ”

Xu Cheng nodded yes again and again.

Gan Hui smiled awkwardly and said, "Regent, I'm too impulsive, and I'm also guilty!" ”

Fang Yuan smiled and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't be guilty, Governor Gan, this time you will go to Burma, and the safety of 200,000 soldiers and horses depends on you, please!" ”

Fang Yuan sent Gan Hui and Xu Cheng away, but when he came back to his senses, he saw Chen Yuanyuan, who was hiding behind the military tent, ashamed and red-faced.

Chen Yuanyuan lowered his gaze and said, "Fang Lang, I, I." ”

Fang Yuan generously didn't bother with her, patted his thigh, and said with a smile, "Yuanyuan, come here!" I've always told you not to interfere in military and political affairs, but you don't listen, so what do you say now? ”

Chen Yuanyuan saw him smiling, obviously not angry or angry, he sat on his lap and got into his arms, coquettishly, and he was not stopped, which can be regarded as having been exposed.
