For the current chaos, it would be better for Sun Tongxuan to take action.
Although Duanwu is a special commissioner, he represents external forces.
Everyone has a xenophobic heart, and this has never changed.
So what Dragon Boat Festival has to do is to do as little as possible to avoid others using the excuse that he is an outsider to create trouble for him.
What's more, at this time, it was Sun Tongxuan who was the first to lose his temper. It would be best if he sent his brother-in-law to ask for advice. Duanwu took the opportunity to secretly control Sun Tongxuan to completely control the 12th Army.
Thinking of this, Duanwu said: "Then I will help you think of a way out of your sincerity."
"Thank you, commissioner, thank you, commissioner."
Wang Changshou thanked him for his kindness, but at this time, the Dragon Boat Festival pretended to be deep in thought. But in fact, he already had an idea.
Before, he was worried that Sun Tongxuan would sit back and watch the situation, and then he would pick up what was ready after he took action. But looking at it now, General Sun is much more active than him.
So this countermeasure has been in place for a long time, but it can't be said immediately. Otherwise, if the fat man in front of him went back and told his brother-in-law, Sun Tongxuan would think too much.
So Duanwu pretended to be thoughtful for a moment, and then said: "That Li Yuqing, you can leave her alone for now. Although she controls the Sun Mansion, her real purpose is actually your brother-in-law. As long as Brother-in-law can stabilize the 12th Army, She would not take the risk of attacking Sun Mansion. The worst possibility was that she would use this to coerce her into leaving LY.
However, that would need to happen under extremely disadvantageous circumstances for her. In other words, it will happen when your brother-in-law completely controls the entire 12th Army. "
"oh oh!"
Wang Changshou nodded repeatedly, and actually took out a small notebook and kept writing.
This caught Duanwu's eyes, and he felt even more that Wang Changshou was a talent, because not everyone could do shorthand.
It's a pity that Duanwu does not lack such talents now, otherwise he would definitely want Wang Changshou to come to him.
Of course, it doesn't matter. Because as I said before, what Dragon Boat Festival wants is an officer who can fight, not a flatterer like Wang Changshou.
Perhaps, when Duanwu wants to join the officialdom, he needs such a talent. But now that we are at war, he doesn't need it at all.
So such talents should be left to Sun Tongxuan!
At this moment, Wang Changshou quickly finished taking down the handwriting and asked for advice again: "Special Commissioner, how can we control the entire 12th Army as quickly as possible?"
Duanwu smiled and said: "A cup of wine releases military power, have you heard of it?"
"Release military power over a glass of wine?"
Wang Changshou murmured in his heart. As I said before, this Wang Changshou has never attended a private school for a few days, and he is not willing to study. He just plays for fun all day long.
Moreover, some experts told him that he would be rich and powerful in the rest of his life. With the addition of official robes, he would be even less willing to study.
However, Wang Changshou likes to listen to operas, so he is somewhat impressed by the story of releasing military power over a glass of wine.
He searched his memory and found that the content of the play should be about Song Taizu.
It is said that after Song Taizu retired from the court, he left Shi Shouxin and other senior generals of the imperial army to drink. When the wine was in full swing, Song Taizu suddenly dismissed his attendants. He sighed, expressed his difficulties, and said: "If I didn't rely on your efforts, I wouldn't be able to reach this position. For this reason, I have always thought of your merits from the bottom of my heart. However, the world is too difficult, so I might as well Doing Jiedushi makes me happy, and I dare not sleep peacefully all night long!"
Shi Shouxin and others were horrified and asked why. Song Taizu continued: "It's not difficult to know. Who doesn't want me as emperor?"
After hearing this, Shi Shouxin and others knew that there was something in these words, and kowtowed quickly and said: "Why did your Majesty say this? The destiny has been determined, who dares to have different intentions?"
Song Taizu said: "Otherwise, although you have no different intentions, if your subordinates want to be rich and noble, if they put a yellow robe on you, even if you don't want to be the emperor, I'm afraid you will have no choice but to do so."
These generals knew that they had been suspected and might even be killed. They all cried in fear and begged Song Taizu to point out a way out for them.
Song Taizu said slowly: "Life in this world is as short as a fleeting moment, so those who want to gain wealth only want to gather more money and have more entertainment to save future generations from poverty. It is better for you to give up military power, go to local places, and spend more money." Good land and a beautiful house, to establish a long-term inheritance for our children and grandchildren; at the same time, buy more singers, drink and have fun day and night, and live forever; I will marry you again, and there will be no suspicion between the monarch and his ministers, and everyone will live in peace. Isn't this great? ?"
Shi Shouxin and others saw that Song Taizu had made his words very clear and there was no room for maneuver. Moreover, Song Taizu had firmly controlled the Central Forbidden Army at that time. Several generals had no other choice but to bow their heads and obey orders to express their gratitude to Taizu for his kindness.
The next day, Shi Shouxin and others claimed that they were ill and demanded to be relieved of military power. Emperor Taizu of the Song Dynasty readily agreed, and ordered him to be dismissed from the post of Imperial Guards, appointed as the local governor, and abolished the inspection department in front of the palace and the command department of the guards and horse infantry forces.
Afterwards, the imperial army was led by the Palace Commanding Department, the Guards Horse Army Commanding Department and the Guards Infantry Commanding Department, the so-called three yamen.
After removing the military power of senior generals such as Shi Shouxin, Taizu selected some more junior people with low personal prestige and easy control to serve as generals of the Forbidden Army.
Therefore, the power of leading the imperial army was split into three, and the three yamen were controlled by lower-ranking generals. This meant that the imperial power's control over the army was strengthened.
Thinking of this, Wang Changshou suddenly realized, and he bowed and saluted: "Listening to the commissioner's words is better than ten years of reading. I will tell my brother-in-law about this method. Thank you, commissioner, thank you!"
Duanwu waved his hand, and Wang Changshou bowed and retreated, and then turned around and went out when he reached the door.
As soon as he left the door, the fat man jumped up and made a cheering and victory-celebrating gesture with his right hand.
The guards on the side looked at Wang Changshou in surprise. Only then did Wang Changshou realize it. He quickly adjusted his clothes, coughed lightly, and walked away.
"You, is this man sick?"
a guard complained.
Another guard said helplessly: "We must have been stimulated by our group again!"
"Yeah, it must be!"
The two guards complained, but Wang Changshou didn't care about it. After getting the idea, he ran to his brother-in-law to offer the treasure.
"Release military power over a glass of wine?"
Sun Tongxuan frowned slightly when he heard the story of Song Taizu, because he was wondering whether he could borrow this drink to release military power, and what his success rate would be.
However, it is undeniable that this is tantamount to the fastest method. Eliminate those buddies of Han Fuju, and the 12th Army will be firmly in your hands.
As for the safety of his family, Sun Tongxuan had the same idea as Duanwu. As long as Li Yuqing could not control him, the commander of the 12th Army, his family would be safe. The worst case scenario is that Li Yuqing used her family to threaten herself and then left LY on her own.
Thinking of this, Sun Tongxuan immediately ordered: "The Dragon Boat Festival Special Commissioner came to our army to conduct tactical exchanges on the order of the Chairman. He ordered all departments of the 12th Army and all officers above the regimental commander to come to LY to participate in this tactical exchange meeting!"
