Chapter 80 Recruitment(2/2)
At this time, King Qi couldn't help but show a trace of disgust on his face when he heard this name.
King Qi had put all his efforts into the Southwest Frontier Army. He was destroyed by Liao Gu in one battle. It was obviously hard to have a good impression of this man!
When Feng Chu saw this, he knew that King Qi was dissatisfied with this person, but he still spoke to persuade:
"Your Highness, according to the battle report investigated by the Xiu Yi Envoy, the defeat of Rongzhou City was not entirely his fault. The Yun army had the help of luck and vision, and it was difficult for our troops to resist. Commander Wu Zixu, Your Highness that year
I also met him when I was on an envoy to the Yun State. His military strategy, intelligence, and methods were all superior. Liao Gu was not as talented as Wu Zixu, and his troops were not as lucky as the Yun State army. But he was able to maintain ten
Tens of thousands of troops have been trapped in the isolated city for more than a month, which shows that they are not incompetent."
"Now he leads the remnants of the army and saves Yongzhou City in a critical moment. Leaving him alive and allowing him to perform meritorious service is telling the generals of the whole army that as long as they work hard during the battle, there is no need to worry about the consequences of defeat! And!
Liao Gu is bound to shed tears of gratitude and dare not fail to do his best!"
The Yun Kingdom has now mastered the method of luck. What King Guangqi now knows is that there are several elite soldiers and horses that can summon visions directly on the battlefield to help. To deal with such an enemy, no matter how strong the Xia Kingdom is, it will
Before he learns to mobilize the power of the national destiny, he will not be able to confront the Yun army head-on.
Since defeat is inevitable, if the punishment for defeated generals is too harsh, it will obviously be very detrimental to military morale!
Thinking of this, King Qi relaxed with a cold face and said in a deep voice:
"In this case, I will report this matter to my father, and then allow him to serve in the army for his crimes!"
At this time, I heard someone suddenly say:
"Not only that, His Highness should also personally receive Liao Gu!"
King Qi suddenly looked at the staff standing on the side of the hall, with dissatisfaction clearly showing on his face.
"I was just talking!"
A scholar wearing a moon-white Confucian robe with a calm and calm temperament slowly stood up, bowed his hands to King Qi, and said:
"Xun Borong, a Confucian disciple, pays homage to His Highness!"
This is another disciple from hundreds of schools who is now serving under King Qi as a staff member.
King Qi looked at this person, nodded slightly, and said in a deep voice:
"I remember you! When the rebels in Anshun County were put down, you worked a lot for me!"
Having said this, King Qi's face almost overflowed with dissatisfaction, and he shouted in a serious voice:
"General Liao Gu was defeated and the situation in the southwest collapsed to this extent. He is partially responsible. For such a person, to forgive him is to worry about the morale of the army. Why do you need me to personally meet him?"
People have emotions, and they are not extremely rational beings. Even though he understood the key, Liao Gu, who had killed hundreds of thousands of troops in one battle, was still very dissatisfied. When he heard the words of this Confucian disciple, he felt
The dissatisfaction can no longer be suppressed!
After hearing King Qi's somewhat scolding remarks, Xun Borong remained calm, gave a salute and said:
"Your Highness, please listen to the next words!"
"explain!"
"Liao Gu is a retainer of the King of Jin! It was also because of King Jin's connections that he was able to take over the Southwest Frontier Army after His Highness. According to the news in Jinling City, King Jin was ordered by His Majesty to leave the government and assist in the administration of the government. This is
Your Highness should have heard about it." Xun Borong said in a deep voice.
King Qi frowned, nodded, and said nothing.
Now that the Embroidered Clothes Envoy is under the control of Yu Yingyao, the affairs of the Xia Kingdom cannot be hidden from his eyes.
But Feng Chu had previously analyzed for him that after the King of Jin left the palace, many of his close associates who had been exiled from the capital were still not recalled to the court. Obviously, this is just a method used by His Majesty to balance power, and he is not serious about himself.
There was a rift.
Although it is worthy of vigilance, there is no need to react too much!
At this time, Xun Borong continued:
"Now that Liao Gu is serving in the hands of His Highness, Your Highness is exempted from his guilt, but he is kind to him. If he intends to recruit him, he will definitely not be able to refuse. In this way, the former disciples of King Jin will be able to appoint him regardless of past suspicions.
If you are exempted from guilt, everyone in the world will definitely praise His Highness’s kindness when they see this!”
This persuasive tone has a hint of Confucianism.
But King Qi was able to understand the deep meaning inside.
King Jin has the intention of resurrecting, but it is not as good as his current reputation. If he uses Liao Gu's incident to show his ambition and let the former close disciples of King Jin have hope of switching to the family, it can be a good blow.
King of Jin.
When Feng Chu heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up. He couldn't help but look at King Qi and said:
"Your Highness, this advice is acceptable!"
When King Qi heard this, he thought of King Jin, who had always been close to him before, and sighed quietly, saying:
Chapter completed!
