248. The way of employing people
"This Deng Ye is so aggressive!" The little emperor Liu Yu patted his thigh, feeling sorry for his 20,000 elite soldiers. "What kind of character is Liu Xiu? How dare he despise him so much?"
However, the other party was killed in battle for the country and had to treat martyrs. The emperor ordered: "Sacrificing oneself for the country, we must treat his family well! Does he have a son? Let him come to my side, and he has some official positions!"
The first time Liu Yu suffered such a big loss, 20,000 people, all of them were elite, and they were wiped out.
In fact, this is not a surprise. After all, Deng Ye was facing the great magician Liu Xiu. He only brought a few thousand people and directly destroyed more than 400,000, not to mention Deng Ye’s 20,000 soldiers.
So, should we fight to the death with the great mentor now?
After thinking about it, Liu Yu decided not to touch Hebei at the moment. After all, it was Liu Xiu's nest, and others would fight desperately if they were forced into a hurry. The two of them were the biggest forces at present and both sides were defeated. Liu Yong and others would take advantage of the situation and the world would definitely be even more chaotic.
Haste means failure, and the little emperor does not want to take this risk.
He must first manage the existing territory well, constantly enhance his own strength, use soft skills to slowly weaken the opponent, and then win with one blow.
Liu Yu felt that as long as you can defend the Taihang Mountain line and maintain a military presence next to Liu Xiu's nest at all times is a strategic victory. If you want to make efforts, it is better to think about a place a little further away from Hebei.
Luoyang is a good choice. It is not far or near to Hebei. It breaks eastward from Luoyang and occupies the entire Henan area. It can be connected with King Liu Yong of Liang, and Liu Xiu's journey to the south will be blocked.
However, Zhu Yu in Luoyang was too incompetent. She was not only incompetent, but also greedy for power and refused to let go, which made the little emperor unable to show his strength in Guandong.
Liu Yu repeatedly considered how to kick Zhu Yu away and hold Luoyang in his palm.
In addition to Luoyang, Nanyang is also a focus of strength. Although it is a little far away from Liu Xiu's ruling center, Nanyang is where he started and has extraordinary political significance.
Liu Yu thought about it over and over again and thought about how to make the fire in Liu Xiu's backyard burn more vigorously, but unexpectedly, his own backyard caught fire instead.
On this day, His Majesty the Emperor was chatting with Kou Xun in the palace, and the Secretary of Military Affairs, Luo You, met with him.
Kou Xun wanted to avoid it, but was stopped by the emperor. He smiled and said, "It's okay! Kou Qing, listen to it!"
Kou Xun was a little surprised. Shangshu of the Military Affairs Office urgently asked for a meeting. I guess something happened. The emperor did not shy away at all. He asked him, the enemy prisoner, to listen to it, and wouldn't he be afraid of any information being leaked?
If he knew that every time the emperor met Wu Yuan, he would not even keep a eunuch by his side, he would probably not think so.
Although Kou Xun insisted on living in prison, he was often ordered to enter the palace to chat with the emperor. The emperor talked about a wide range of topics, from small matters in daily life to major national affairs. At the beginning, Kou Xun was careful, afraid that the emperor would draw some secrets from him. Later, after chatting for a long time, he slowly relaxed.
Kou Xun sat silently at the lower head, watched the soldiers, Shangshu Luo You come in, and saluted the emperor.
He was surprised that the age of the Shangshu was only in his twenties and had already assumed such a heavy responsibility. He thought that Yang Yanshou, the teacher whom he met last time, was only in his twenties.
There were many young people around the little emperor, each of whom was full of energy and ambitious, making the Chang'an court full of vitality and full of positive power. Kou Xun looked at them and felt as if he had returned to his youth.
Kou Xun was shocked. Peng Chong was unfair, and he had noticed it. But Deng Feng was from Nanyang and was in-laws with His Majesty the Emperor. Several people in the Deng family were important officials in the court. How could Deng Feng rebel against the court?
It's incredible!
Kou Xun suddenly remembered that the little emperor once said: "Jianwu met Wu, and he favored Wu from the north and Feng in the south."
Peng Chong rebelled in the north, Deng Feng rebelled in the south, and Northern Feng Feng, so that's it!
Kou Xun sat in his single cell, looking at the mottled sunlight through the narrow window, and his mind was filled with various thoughts.
