With Su Yonglin's weird way of speaking, if he hadn't been the leader of the Liberation Army, he would have been beaten to death eighteen times with just three sentences.
But it is a pity that he is the actual controller of the Liberation Army, the actual ruler and the holder of the highest power in the areas occupied by the Liberation Army.
So it is not anyone else's turn to hit him, only he hits others.
With just three words, he can kill 180,000 enemies.
Knowing the essence of it, the offended Kong Zheng didn't mind, and chose to smile when faced with Su Yonglin's eccentricity.
"Everything has passed. The fact that the Kong family can continue so stably to this day is all due to the general's trust and promotion. Kong is very grateful!"
Kong Zheng gave another big gift, ending the awkward conversation and sweeping away the awkward atmosphere.
How else can I say that she has a soft figure and a good family background.
Su Yonglin laughed, then stood up and walked to Kong Zheng, took Kong Zheng's hand and helped him up.
"What are you grateful for? Not only do you need me now, I also need you. Look, I am in charge of this huge Zhongdu, and there are an army of 500,000 people. I am already too busy and in dire straits. I am really short of money. The available talents are just waiting for Yuan Ji to help me!"
Hearing these words, Kong Zheng was stunned for a moment, and then a burst of ecstasy came over his heart. All the unhappiness in his heart disappeared without a trace in an instant, and he even felt a little grateful to Su Yonglin.
"General...this..."
"You also know that it has only been more than two years since I started the army. I thought it would take more than ten years to destroy the Jin Kingdom. At that time, I probably had a lot of useful talents under my command, but who would have thought that this Jin country man It's just a paper tiger, it's too inexperienced, it only took two years, and it's over.
Before I even exerted any strength, he fell down by himself. The emperor was dead, the general was dead, and the army was finished. Leave this mess to me, and now I have no one to ask for, and no money. I am so poor and helpless. "
Su Yonglin squeezed Kong Zheng's hand and used a little more strength.
Kong Zheng's smile became a little embarrassed again.
Good guy, Kong Zheng really caught up with this large-scale Versailles scene.
What does it mean that it took only two years to succeed after originally thinking it would take more than ten years?
Don't talk about you, who among us would have expected you to be so cruel and the people of Jin country to be so useless?
They were promised to be the most powerful country in the world, but they ended up with such a record, which suddenly shattered the undefeated golden body that they had spent thirty years building. Now everyone was dumbfounded, and no one was prepared.
What else can I say?
There are too many monsters in this world, but people like Su Yonglin... It's no wonder that so many people criticize Su Yonglin's policies and behavior, but they still dare not conflict with him head-on.
It's so weird, so monster, it's so scary to beat the world's hegemon like a grandson.
Who can bear it?
It was just too fast, so no one was prepared, so they had to come to Zhongdu to beg Tian Wenshe with a shy face!
Kong Zheng doesn't hate Su Yonglin at all now, he just hates Wan Yanliang and Jin Guo.
A bunch of trash, they couldn't hold it for two years, and they didn't give us any time to prepare. It was like rushing to reincarnate. The country perished so quickly that Kong Zheng felt that Wan Yanliang and Zhao Heng were twin brothers.
But now that the matter has come to this, what can we do?
Kong Zheng could only boast with a shy face that Su Yonglin was a man from heaven, a god from heaven who came down to earth to save people in distress, and that he came to help the Han people in the Central Plains overthrow the brutal rule of the Jin Kingdom.
Then the conversation changed and the "helper" Su Yonglin needed was mentioned.
"The ancients said that governing a large country is like cooking small dishes. Even so, governing a large country also requires caution. If you make a mistake, you will make a wrong step. If you make a mistake, the country will be in danger. This is the reason why the Jin Kingdom fell, but the generals did the opposite. If you follow the path, you will naturally be able to replace it.”
"Well, good point! Keep going."
Su Yonglin nodded, looking very satisfied, but in his heart he was scolding Kong Zheng, why are you here across from me?
Let’s get to the point!
So Kong Zheng started to talk about the key points.
"In fact, the problems faced by generals were also encountered by the ancients. In order to select talents, the ancients also tried their best to select talented people from among all the people. Therefore, there were first the imperial examinations and the imperial examinations, both of which were for the imperial court. .
Up to now, both the Song State, which once governed the Central Plains, and the Jin State, which later governed the Central Plains, use the imperial examination to select talents and govern the country. Through the imperial examination, Confucian scholars who are proficient in classics are selected. Only by governing the country with Confucianism can long-term peace and stability be achieved. "
Su Yonglin nodded.
"Yuan Ji means that I should hold the imperial examination to obtain scholars?"
Kong Zheng was excited.
"Exactly, the Central Government has surrendered, and the Kingdom of Jin has been destroyed. Why doesn't the general comply with God's will, establish a country, proclaim himself emperor, and hold imperial examinations to show the world that the new dynasty is mighty and majestic?"
Su Yonglin watched Kong Zheng blink his eyes and was silent for a while.
"What you said is very good, but I have no intention of becoming emperor now."
"ah?"
Kong Zheng opened his mouth wide and was stunned.
"Wouldn't I be roasted on the fire if I became emperor now? I have just destroyed the Jin Kingdom, Guanzhong has not yet been captured in the west, Liaodong has not yet been captured in the east, and the Xia Kingdom and the Song Kingdom are all watching.
If I don't become the emperor, all parties will still be wary and won't immediately send troops to fight against me. If I become the emperor now, won't I be facing enemies on all sides? Yuanji, don’t you understand this situation? "
Su Yonglin looked at Kong Zheng in surprise and showed disgust.
Kong Zheng was shocked, thinking that Su Yonglin could not let Su Yonglin doubt his ability, so he immediately made amends.
"I understand! I understand! It's just...but in our hearts, the general's great achievements are unparalleled, and he should be the best in the world!"
Su Yonglin shook his head repeatedly.
"Stop saying that, Yuan Ji, let me tell you the truth. Under the current circumstances, I lack everything and have no confidence to be the emperor, let alone hold the imperial examination. Even if I open the imperial examination, no one will come to participate. , isn’t it just a slap in the face?”
Kong Zheng wanted to tell him that it was a bit too much for you to show off like this, but the education he had received prevented him from saying such a thing.
"Then does the general think it is appropriate to hold the imperial examination?"
He still wasn't willing to give up on the answer to this important mission.
Su Yonglin knew that this was the core interest of the scholar-bureaucrats, and it was impossible to give in to them, so he said: "After I pacify the Central Plains and completely eliminate the Jin Kingdom, by that time, I should be able to make everyone in the world recognize my achievements."
After hearing this, Kong Zheng breathed a sigh of relief and finally got the answer he wanted.
Although the imperial examination is not allowed at the moment, Su Yonglin always thinks so, that's good.
But his mission was not over yet.
If the imperial examination cannot be held for a while, then we must seize resources through other means to prevent the first comers from snatching up all the political resources and not even being able to drink soup.
In the officialdom, the phenomenon of grouping together based on seniority is very serious. If you cannot seize the opportunity and take one step slowly, then even if you become an official, you will have to serve tea and water and grovel without raising your head. Then the situation of Shandong scholar-officials is worrying.
After thinking about Su Yonglin's statement just now, Kong Zheng decided to take the initiative.
"The general said before that there is a lack of talents to govern the place. If the general does not give up, Kong is willing to recommend one or two to the general to relieve the general's worries."
"Great, I am short of manpower to take care of my affairs now. If you can be recommended by Yuanji, you will definitely be a great talent!"
Kong Zheng smiled and said: "Great talents dare not say it, but the desire to share the general's worries can be learned from heaven and earth. I hope the general will be aware of it."
After a conversation, Kong Zheng recommended twelve or three "talents who can help the general to share his worries" to Su Yonglin. Su Yonglin also "accepted" and said that he should let them come to Zhongdu as soon as possible so that he could arrange for them to do things and "share the worries" for him.
