Of course, Zhu Yuanzhang would not forget to grant official titles to Liu Bowen and Li Shanchang.
"Mr. Liu, what kind of officials do you want to be, Mr. Li? Just ask! Don't have any worries, the person who speaks is not guilty!"
Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to promote democracy. This was a meeting. Of course, you could speak freely in the meeting, not Zhu Yuanzhang issuing orders.
Now Liu Bowen and Li Shanchang were asked to look at each other, but neither of them spoke.
At this time, Xu Da spoke, "Two gentlemen, didn't you talk a lot just now? Why are you silent now?"
"Yes, it's true. The commander-in-chief said that if you want to be an official, you can just bring it up. The speaker is not guilty!" Hu Dahai was really happy now!
People are like this. They want to speak out about matters that concern their own vital interests, but are embarrassed to do so.
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said, "Since you two are embarrassed to speak, let me tell you two official positions. What do you think?"
"Commander, please speak!"
Liu Bowen and Li Shanchang said together.
"Liu Bowen is the general staff officer, and Li Shanchang is the general manager of Jinling."
After hearing this, Tang He said, "General manager, we know what's going on, but what does the general staff mean?"
"The general staff officer is the chief of staff, the greatest strategist. He advises me on the secret plans of the gods in the world and restrains other strategists."
"Your arrangement for the competition is really perfect. Mr. Liu is our general staff!"
Finally, Chang Yuchun expressed his opinion.
Li Shanchang also strongly agrees.
Liu Bowen is good at planning, and Li is good at being pragmatic. When the two work together, each can get what he wants.
"There is another thing. You four commanders, and the positions of the two general managers, are in a competitive relationship. If someone under you does a better job and has a very large cumulative credit, he may also take your position. Therefore, you must remember Don’t be arrogant and complacent, always make progress, that’s the right way!”
"There is one more thing, your superior. I would like to ask your superior to make it clear. Is our strategic goal to unify all the territories of Yuan Dynasty? Or are there other arrangements?"
Xu Da said very formally.
Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a moment, "Our strategic goals are to reach Siberia in the north, the Indian Ocean in the south, Hawaii in the east, and the Danube River in the north! No! Our ultimate goal is to transcend the stars and the sea!"
As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang said this, the following people were stunned for a while, and no one spoke.
Finally Liu Bowen, who was very studious, spoke, "Commander, where are these places you mentioned? It seems that none of us have heard of them!"
Zhu Yuanzhang had just said such words on a whim, but now he realized that his thoughts were jumping too fast.
We will talk about the future matters later. Now we must first find a way to unify China.
He just felt like he had returned to modern society instead of the Yuan Dynasty.
"In this case, I will draw a new map, one for each person!"
"Thank you, Marshal!"
Liu Bowen was a very studious person, and he was really thirsty for new knowledge.
This time Zhu Yuanzhang's words changed his impression of Zhu Yuanzhang again.
It turned out that Liu Bowen believed that Zhu Yuanzhang was a born commander with great talents and broad strategies.
But now he feels that Zhu Yuanzhang's knowledge is really profound. He admires Zhu Yuanzhang's inventions of artillery, aircraft, etc. very much.
Sun Tzu's Art of War says: Those who are good at attacking move in the nine heavens.
Zhu Yuanzhang's aircraft at the moment is still relatively crude, but it has already exerted great power.
Given time, it is really immeasurable.
Liu Bowen sees things further than others. This is a unique ability.
To be honest, Liu Bowen originally thought Zhu Yuanzhang was wise and powerful, but now he thinks Zhu Yuanzhang is really unfathomable.
After the meeting, Zhu Yuanzhang was also reflecting on himself, why he was so excited and said things that he could not believe.
Every young man has a heroic dream, and Zhu Yuanzhang is no exception.
Not only do we need to unify China, but we also need to expand into a larger area. If we don’t do it now, we’ll wait until later!
Once the vision changes, the way of doing things will also change.
For example, Chen Youliang, it turned out that Zhu Yuanzhang must eliminate him, because his existence was a fatal threat to Zhu Yuanzhang.
However, because Zhu Yuanzhang's vision has become wider now, he no longer focuses on the entire Huaxia region. He wants further areas and a broader sky.
So he can make good use of Chen Youliang.
In any case, Chen Youliang is a good sword.
When this sword is pointed at Zhu Yuanzhang, it is of course a huge threat.
But thinking about it differently, if Zhu Yuanzhang controls this sword and points it at others, it will be Zhu Yuanzhang's greatest help.
When he thought of these, Zhu Yuanzhang was really excited!
He does not have to stick to the constraints of history, and this is not history.
He was preparing to launch an arrest operation against Chen Youliang.
After catching Chen Youliang, he beat him hard and made him truly surrender to him.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang also knew that Chen Youliang was naturally rebellious, and it would not be easy to capture him.
In ancient times, Zhuge Liang captured Meng Huo seven times before he finally gained Meng Huo's heart, and the border achieved long-term peace and stability.
He planned to use soft and hard tactics on Chen Youliang, making Chen Youliang fear him like a tiger and serve him.
To be his own sharp sword, to open up territory for himself, he wanted to give Chen Youliang another world to display his talents.
Zhu Yuanzhang prepared a plan.
This plan included a lot of combination punches. Zhu Yuanzhang believed that he would be able to defeat Chen Youliang with this combination of punches.
Chen Youliang took over the command of Xu Shouhui's army with iron-blooded means.
Therefore, Xu Shouhui's subordinates did not really surrender to him, but were afraid of him and were afraid of being killed by him.
If Chen Youliang can maintain his momentum of victory in the war, then his coerced subordinates will not have any problems for the time being.
Once there is a sign of defeat or a major setback, these people will quickly turn away from each other. In fact, they and Chen Youliang are not of the same mind at all.
Zhu Yuanzhang was analyzing how he could wage a psychological battle against Chen Youliang.
Chen Youliang was a man who could bend and stretch, so he tied himself with canes and went to see Xu Shouhui. He was really putting his life and death at risk.
If Chen Shouhui had captured Chen Youliang at that time, there would have been no future.
But his bet was right, Xu Shouhui did not kill him.
So Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking, what makes him better than Xu Shouhui? How to make Chen Youliang truly convinced? This matter is really difficult!
However, Zhu Yuanzhang also had another idea.
He can teach Chen Youliang some other things, such as Buddhist scriptures.
Zhu Yuanzhang is confident in this area, and Chen Youliang is definitely not his opponent.
