Chapter 92: Think Tank

The establishment of power in Annam is very easy, the descendants of the Zheng family, the Ruan family and the Zheng family are all over the country of Annam, not to mention finding orthodox people with blood relations, even if you are looking for orthodox children and descendants, Lu Bing can also turn them out. As long as the rebel army is pulled up, Lu Bing will not care, and after formulating a reasonable plan for the rebel army, he will return to the battlefield with the brigade to deal with the Gutian rebels. After all, Annan is just about to move, and the Gutian rebels are rebelling, if they don't suppress it and establish a regime, then where is the majesty of the country, won't the world be in chaos at that time?

The reason why Lu Bing is so urgent is because Gutian should also know that he has arrived in Annan and is not in Guangxi, no one is a fool, and once the clues are revealed, Lu Bing's trick of attacking the east and the west and stealing the day will be revealed.

Lu Bing left Annan and headed towards the border of the Ming Dynasty, followed by three thousand iron horsemen. In the jungle-dense Annan, it was not so easy to meet such a decent cavalry team, most of the peasants were frightened and trembled, knowing that it was the Han people with extremely strong combat effectiveness.

Although Lu Bing's military discipline was strict, and his subordinates had only disturbed the people a few times, people were born with a fear of outsiders, which caused them to still be very afraid of Lu Bing and his subordinates. Suddenly, an old man shouted: "General Qu? ”

Lu Bing restrained the horse, although he couldn't understand Annan, but this sentence General Qu Lu Bing heard too clearly, he had been studying the history of Mi 13 a few days ago, this General Qu was the name of the Han people who had ruled them by the people of Annan, and Lu Bing naturally remembered it after hearing it a lot. Lu Bing rode his horse to the old man. Waving his hand to let himself return with the army translator, Lu Bing did not dismount and asked, "Old man." What did you just say? ”

The old man muttered, and the translator turned to tell Lu Bing, saying that Lu Bing looked very much like a clay sculpture handed down from his ancestors. Lu Bing didn't care about going back, and personally followed the old man back to the old man's home, a pair of clay carvings were thrown aside, no one paid attention to this kind of handicraft, who cared about this if he couldn't eat enough. On clay sculptures. There are two lines of small characters, on which is written the honorable position of General Qu XX. The word so-and-so is too old to be seen clearly because of the serious damage.

Lu Bing walked out of the old man's house with a clay sculpture. Looking at it through the light, I couldn't help but be surprised: "This person really looks like me." ”

The clay sculpture is not made of ordinary mud, the material is very special, black and swarthy with bright light, knocking and knocking. It should have been baked. Lu Bing is not very good at this, but after all, there are many things he handles, and he can tell the good and bad at a glance. How to say this thing, it's not a boutique, it's not a bargain sold outside, and the carving between the eyebrows of this villain is lifelike, and the body is also in line with the proportions of the human body, which is a realistic technique. In a word. Although it is not ingenious, it can be called vivid.

Lu Bing hurriedly asked where the clay sculpture came from. The old man said that he didn't know, but it was handed down from his grandparents, and it must have been said for decades. Lu Bing took the clay statue and asked the entourage below to give the old man a lot of gold and silver, and then rode away.

Along the way, the more Lu Bing thought about it, the more strange he became, what connection did he have with Mi Thirteen? If the blood relationship is naturally impossible, and he is from time travel, and there is no blood relationship at all, then is this body related to that General Qu? It was already a matter of his grandfather's generation, and Lu Bing made up his mind to go back to Beijing to ask Lu Song if there were any secrets in his family history.

Three days later, Lu Bing came to the camp opposite the Gutian rebels, even if Lu Bing was not there these days, the Gutian rebels did not take advantage of the slightest, and various strategies were waiting for them one after another. When Lu Bing walked into the camp, there were no high-seated warriors, and they looked like a school, full of all kinds of men in Confucian costumes, and only a few of them changed their uniforms, but they were all energetic, and their ages were about twenty-five to fifty. Everyone talked about it, but they didn't notice Lu Bing's arrival.

Lu Bing is very smart and powerful, but he is not a god man, he can command a campaign, but he can't dispatch north and south and command the all-out war of the Ming Dynasty, or he simply doesn't have so much energy to do so. Most of Lu Bing's previous orders were to put forward a general idea, and then others would study a specific strategy. This group of people is in the big tent, they are Lu Bing's think tank.

Regarding think tanks, there are from ancient times to the present, in ancient times, most of the think tanks were held by sorcerers, and in the later period, the civil and military generals gradually became clear, and the civil and military systems that were not very clear in the feudal dynasty at that time were formed, and the civil officials were the emperor's think tanks. With the detailed division of labor, civil officials have to deal with a large number of government and civil affairs, so the role of think tanks is reduced. Later, in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, all the princes or famous monarchs all loved to raise a group of doormen, to put it bluntly, this group of doormen is composed of thinkers and killers, and they have created countless legends and classics.

With the gradual maturity of the feudal dynasty, the role of think tanks has declined, and many officials only need to sit on duty or follow the orders of the superiors. Most of the think tanks of civil officials come from relatives at home or friends who are also bureaucrats, and although they are closely related, they have little to do with their interests, and when they are tempted enough, they may turn against each other and fight against each other, in short, it is not a tie-up life-and-death alliance in which both prosperity and loss are lost.

There are more think tanks among military generals, and most of them have staff and military advisors, but the number is not as large as that of Lu Bing's now. Lu Bing's staff brought together many strategists from the north and south of the country, and these strategists were not without talent, either they were born at the wrong time or they were not talented, or they were originally geeks but were not reused by the imperial court, or what they learned was no longer among the imperial examinations. Lu Bingwu made the best use of it and began to collect these talents very early, although they were also useful on weekdays, but they were by no means used to their maximum potential.

Now, Lu Bing has used it, and at the beginning of the war, Lu Bing set up a think tank to deal with all political and military issues, and politically discussed both internally and externally, which Lu Bing often saw before the crossing, and the bureaucrats of most capitalist countries have their own think tanks. Lu Bing listened to their discussions, no matter what it was, sometimes not to listen to the results, but to listen to others analyze the pros and cons, so as to have a more comprehensive understanding of the overall situation and make judgments. As the so-called authorities are obsessed with bystanders, that's all.

Of course, once there are people, it is inevitable that there will be gangs and factions, although the generals are rude but better, especially the literati, and they are not for the righteousness of buddies, but purely interests and opinions and camp issues. In order to prevent his think tank from being divided into camps, so that he could not discuss the real issues, he was committed to pinching each other and fighting for power, so Lu Bing let them hold positions on an equal footing and vote to decide, and it was a secret vote.

Once the judgment is wrong, the bonus will be deducted once, and he will be let go immediately after three consecutive mistakes, and Lu Bing will not support useless people. Those who leave may be unlucky, and will be sent to the combat unit as a staff member, and then promoted according to the situation.

That's right, the reason why Lu Bing was able to attract such a large group of talents relied on three points, one is money offensive, two is a sense of fulfillment to apply what he has learned, and three respect.

Needless to say, Lu Bing is not short of money, but he didn't use his own money, this is the matter of the imperial court, why use his own money, so the annual dedication of these strategists is higher than that of a prefect. This money seems to be a lot in total, but it is nothing to the imperial court, and on weekdays, an official is greedy and perverts more than that, since Lu Bing took charge of the overall situation, most officials are very sensible and dare not deduct any money from the war, regardless of the size of the official position.

Lu Bing used to fight corruption and advocate honesty, at that time, the heads of people who killed corrupt officials were rolling, and the two purges were carried out around corrupt officials, and some people even secretly compared Lu Bing to Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty.

It is better to apply what you have learned, talented people hope that their talents can be reflected, although it is somewhat difficult and impractical to leave a name in history, but it is always possible in the current civilization, right? Lu Bingzheng gave them such a chance, with a group of smart people like himself, every strategist had a trace of fighting spirit and enthusiasm in their hearts, and hundreds of schools of thought expressed their opinions and voted to decide the final result of the matter, fair and just, everyone showed their due light, without the slightest tyranny.

Respect is an attitude, although Lu Bing has not had much contact with this group of strategists, he has done enough respect, attaches importance to them, is neither humble nor arrogant, and will not spoil them and make them arrogant, nor will he despise these high-spirited literati because they have given money and have a prominent status.

After giving advice to Lu Bing, Lu Bing rushed to the northwest, and the think tank went south with the army, came to Guangxi, and began to implement the strategy that Lu Bing had previously decided according to the terrain. When the war against the Japanese changed, and Lu Bingzai'an's whereabouts in the south were exposed, the think tank began to deploy rapidly, in addition to holding the camp, it also fought a few beautiful ambushes, which made the Gutian rebels really suffer.

The Ming army is powerful, not only the main force of the three major battalions and the garrisons of various garrisons have sent a lot, but Lu Bing's 3,000 elites are also here, and there is a great tendency to not destroy the Gutian rebels, so the Gutian rebels must not fight hard, and they can only fight a few victories through sneak attacks, so as to extinguish the spirit of the Ming army and achieve the goal of damaging the morale of the Ming army, but the intervention of the think tank made the Gutian rebels' plan fail.

When Lu Bing walked into the crowd, the strategists discovered the arrival of their employers, and they retreated to the left and right, although there was no order but they were also neat, and more than 30 people shouted "Lord" in unison. (To be continued......)
