First of all, from the time when Jinyang raised troops, the King of Qi was like a divine calculator, basically calculating every move of Liang Jun. The strategic planning during the dialogue with Liang Gaozu was like the Longzhong pair, showing a strategy that transcended the times.

Planning ability.

Of course, this kind of strategic planning ability is actually fake and is just copying historical data, but Liang Gaozu didn't know it.

Therefore, in the eyes of Liang Gaozu, King Qi was a wise general who strategized and won thousands of miles.

On the other hand, although the King of Qin was victorious in every battle, his image looked more like a mighty general, without the strategizing and calm demeanor of the King of Qi.

Secondly, the military merit of King Qi has surpassed that of King Qin.

After defeating Xue Ju in the battle of Qianshuiyuan, Li Hongyun defeated Liu Wuzhou and Song Jingang, taking all the credit that originally belonged to the King of Qin.

Therefore, in Liang Jun's view, King Qi was already a victorious general that surpassed King Qin, and his prestige was unparalleled.

Finally, there is a very important point, which is Liang Gaozu’s selfishness.

According to the original historical development, the reason why Liang Gaozu sat back and watched the situation in Jinyang and even the entire Hedong gradually deteriorate and get out of control, but he would rather let the King of Qi do whatever he wanted and let Pei Ji lead the rescue force was because he wanted to beat him.

The thoughts of King Qin.

King Qin defeated Xue Ju and gained too much prestige in the army, so Liang Gaozu began to feel that he could not rely entirely on him.

However, after being taught by Liu Wuzhou and Song Jingang, they found that no one could handle it except King Qin, so they had no choice but to move King Qin out again.

In this world line, although King Qin did not directly win the Battle of Qianshuiyuan, nor did he defeat Liu Wuzhou and Song Jingang, his military ability was still solid, and his prestige in the military was still extremely high.

Moreover, the prince is obviously closer to King Qi.

In the eyes of Liang Gaozu and the prince, King Qin was still a huge threat and might directly challenge the prince's position.

And what about King Qi? He is too young, and he is more like a strategist, and is not as aggressive as King Qin.

Therefore, after careful consideration, Liang Gaozu decided to hand over the power of commanding the army to the King of Qi.

The King of Qin served as the important assistant and forward general of the King of Qi.

Finally came the battle of Hulao Pass.

Li Hongyun has experienced it many times, but it is even more familiar than fighting Liu Wuzhou and Song Jingang.

He began to organize his troops, constantly eroding Wang Shichong's military strength, and gradually surrounded Luoyang.

King Qin was surprised to find that this fourth brother seemed to always want to go with him.

But this thing no longer makes him happy, but makes him feel depressed.

Because he always felt that there seemed to be an invisible obstacle in front of him. Every time he wanted to do something, he would always find that King Qi was already waiting there...

This feeling is quite similar to the feeling of powerlessness felt by the original author of the poem after the time traveler copied all the poems.

However, King Qin didn't think much about it and just continued to lead his troops to fight with all his heart.

This time, Li Hongyun was full of confidence, because without the previous two heavy losses of the Dianyuan fiasco and the Jinyang fiasco, the Liang Dynasty could mobilize more soldiers.

In addition, he and the King of Qin cooperated perfectly. He was arranging troops in the rear, strategizing, predicting the future as if cheating, while the King of Qin was fighting with the generals in the front, making this battle even more suspenseful than before.

However, what Li Hongyun didn't expect was that just when he was about to fight Wang Shichong and drove him into Luoyang City without daring to come out, an accident happened.

The King of Qi, played by Li Hongyun, is leading his army into battle, and his bows and arrows are always in vain.

However, a Turkic cavalry suddenly came out from behind and dispersed Li Hongyun's formation.

Wang Shichong took advantage of the situation and attacked from both sides and joined forces with the Turkic cavalry.

Li Hongyun was beheaded from his horse in a state of confusion, with countless question marks floating in his mind.

Where did the Turkic cavalry come from behind my butt?

The Turks were far away in the north. Could it be that they directly grew wings and crossed the land east of the river and flew to Luoyang?

Take a closer look, no, this seems to be my Turkic cavalry...

Confused and unwilling, Li Hongyun ended this smooth battle inexplicably, and also ended his performance this time.

After reviewing the entire battle, I finally discovered the problem.

These Turks were an army he conquered when he defeated Liu Wuzhou.

Li Hongyun still followed the previous strategy of treating prisoners of war, showing his extremely tolerant mind and not only integrating these troops as they were.

Not only did the organization not be broken up, but the original generals were allowed to take command.

When Xue Ju was defeated before, this was how Zong Luohu and other subordinate generals were treated.

Later, when Liu Wuzhou was attacked, the same treatment was done to Yuchi Jingde and other surrendered generals.

This is also the consistent style of King Qin.

However, both Zong Luohu and Yuchi Jingde were loyal to him, but the Turks did not accept this trick at all.

When Wang Shichong heard that there was a group of Turks in Liang's army, he immediately secretly sent envoys to bribe them with heavy sums of money, causing them to defect before the battle.

This strategy really worked. King Qi, who seemed to have a brilliant plan, capsized in such a gutter.

Li Hongyun was very angry. After he restarted the trial and killed all these Turks, he also understood a truth.

There are also prerequisites for employing people without doubt.

And this premise is to know people well and be able to see through people's hearts.

For generals like Zong Luohu and Yuchi Jingde, they knew honor and disgrace as well as benevolence and righteousness, so by using benevolence and righteousness to win over them, they could serve you loyally.

But what about the Turks?

The barbarians are just like beasts, fearing power but not possessing virtue.

Although this sentence is a bit extreme to a certain extent, it is indeed true. Because the Turks and the Central Plains people do not have the same moral standards, it is not an easy task to control them and make them serve you loyally.

things.

Li Hongyun also wondered, how did Liang Taizong do it?

Not only did the Turks surrender to him willingly, but even when he died, many barbarian generals asked themselves to be buried.

What's even more magical is that Liang Taizong had anticipated this before his death, and specifically left an edict instructing these barbarian generals not to be buried alive but to live well.

This incident made Li Hongyun understand a truth. Pure benevolence and righteousness are useless. In troubled times, many people have their own agendas. If you do not have strong enough force and wisdom, they will not think that you are a benevolent king.

I'll just think you're a cowardly idiot.
