"It's Mr. Meng, you're so polite."
Liu Chan bowed respectfully to Meng Jian, who had a look of fear on his face.
"Can I accept His Highness's gift?"
Saying that, he quickly helped Liu Chan up.
"You are just a talented person. I dare not call you Wang Zuo. Otherwise, you will not have accomplished anything after your thirtieth year."
As he said that, Meng Jian also smiled bitterly.
He and Zhuge Liang, his old friends, seemed to be the worst offender.
Needless to say, Zhuge Liang is famous all over the world.
The same is true for Xu Shu.
Meng Jian, on the other hand, has been wasted for many years and is still just a commoner.
"Why do you have to be so self-effacing, sir? When I came to Runan, I had already heard about your reputation. I only regretted that Wei Ni didn't recognize outstanding people, so he had no official position."
It is said that those who are close to Zhuge are red, and those who are close to Mo are black. They can get along with people like Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu. But if you don't have some skills, you won't be able to get into their circle.
Do you want to say that Meng Jian is incapable?
That's impossible.
Historically, even though he was so suppressed by the Wei State, Meng Jian was held back by his identity as Runan, and in the end he still became the governor of Liangzhou and the general who conquered the east. This shows that his ability is extraordinary.
"His Highness has a great reputation, and Jiancai is like a thunder in the ears. However, he has a humble reputation. Compared with His Highness, it is really the difference between a firefly and the light of the bright moon. I am ashamed, I am ashamed!"
Liu Chan chuckled and said, "I'm meeting you today. Your husband will soon be famous all over the world!"
Be famous all over the world?
Meng Jian was stunned.
"What does your Highness mean by this?"
Being so despised and suppressed by the Wei State, Meng Jian still valued reputation and official career.
A dozen years ago, perhaps he would have smiled contemptuously.
But now that I am getting older, I am already middle-aged. If I am not a teenager, if I don’t do something, I will become a pile of dirt.
Wouldn’t my own talents and learning be buried?
"Sit down, please sit down first!"
Seeing that Meng Jian's interest had increased, Liu Chan was no longer in a hurry. He walked up to the main seat slowly. Meng Jian's heart felt like it had been scratched a few times. Now that Liu Chan didn't say anything, he felt really uncomfortable all over his body.
"Don't be impatient, sir. Just sit down!"
Zhuge Liang shook his head and said something to Meng Jian, who nodded slightly. Although he was anxious, he still had some patience.
After everyone sat upright, Liu Chan slowly spoke.
"Actually, the advisers and generals in the hall today came so neatly. It's not that I have the ability to predict the unknown and know that the military advisors have returned and want to welcome them. It's because despite the news, Runan is not stable and the Wei army will arrive soon. We I'm thinking about ways to defeat the enemy."
Does this strategy of defeating the enemy have anything to do with me?
Meng Jian frowned slightly and began to think.
only
I don’t know what the situation is in His Highness’s army now. I don’t know the situation. No matter how strategist he is, he can’t make any plans!
But soon, a cry for help came from the hall.
"Military advisor, you have to come up with some ideas! Your Highness is so frustrated. He has worked so hard. He actually asked us to write down a strategy to deal with the current situation. He asked us to think about how to win over the Runan nobles. How can we do this? This ability?" Zhang Bao immediately started crying.
E Huan also complained on the side: "How to defeat the Wei army? I just pick up the mace and charge straight at it. Won't writing policy papers cost my life, E Huan?"
The two complained for a while, and Meng Jian learned two very crucial pieces of information.
Take care of the Runan gentry.
Deal with the Wei army.
What Your Highness wants him to be famous all over the world is to win over the Runan gentry.
"Your Highness."
Meng Jian stood up slowly and said: "If you want to help Your Highness win the hearts of the Runan nobles, it is not impossible. It's just that although I have a small reputation, the Runan nobles are used to dormant, so I don't dare to take risks easily."
Or
Those who dared to take risks were dead and gone.
The people who still remain in the Runan gentry are all people with poor talent and bad blood.
"I want to share wealth and honor with the Runan nobles!"
Liu Chan looked at Meng Jian with burning eyes and said: "The Runan nobles have been suppressed by the Counter-Wei Dynasty for a long time! The cultural heritage of Runan has been almost cut off. How can the Runan scholars have a chance to succeed? The people of Runan have been violently suppressed by the Counter-Wei Dynasty. , it is extremely difficult to survive. Now that I have arrived in Runan, I am naturally willing to change this status quo. However, if I say it out loud, the Runan nobles may not necessarily believe it. I need a famous person to pass it on and endorse me. "
Runan
It has indeed been hard on Cao Wei for a long time!
only
Meng Jian frowned slightly and said: "Although Your Highness has made a new announcement, he has only gained four or five cities in Runan, not all of Runan. In addition, His Highness has sent troops to plunder Runan before. As far as I know, His Highness His reputation in Runan is not that of a wise man. Besides, the King of Wei is about to visit Runan, and whether His Highness can defend Runan is another matter."
Phew~
Meng Jian took a deep breath and said: "In this case, even with your help, it is almost impossible for Your Highness to win over the Runan nobles. Everyone is willing to share wealth and honor, but if you want the Runan nobles to accompany Your Highness to death? I'm afraid it's impossible. People will be willing!”
Meng Jian's words were very straightforward.
Loyalty is helpful to one's actions.
His words of advice were indeed a bit unpleasant to hear.
For example, some of the generals in the hall were about to start shouting after hearing Meng Jian's words, and many of them had murderous intent in their eyes.
The counselors' reaction was not as intense as that of the generals, but many people also frowned.
"Hahaha!"
After listening to this, Liu Chan laughed loudly and said, "Since you have said so much, sir, please tell me how to solve it!"
After seeing Liu Chan's advice, not only was he not angry, but he actually laughed.
Meng Jian felt a little happy, and unconsciously labeled Liu Chan a wise master.
"As long as His Highness can win first and give the Runan nobles hope that they can defend Runan, I can convince them to be loyal to Your Highness."
The State of Wei really suppressed the Runan gentry.
But being out of breath is better than dying, right?
Win first?
Liu Chan frowned slightly.
"Isn't Mr.'s reputation enough to convince them?"
There may be some people in Runan who are more famous than Meng Jian now, but not many.
Even Meng Jian couldn't handle these people from noble families, so who could?
"No matter how famous I am, I still can't convince them!"
It seems that the idea of asking Meng Jian to come out and regain the Runan gentry is too naive.
If you want to gain their support, you have to take the initiative on the battlefield.
only
When the main force of the Wei army comes, it is a problem for them to defend the city. Where will they get the troops to fight?
A dangerous move for soldiers?
Liu Chan turned his attention to Zhuge Liang.
The logistics officer smiled softly and said: "Your Highness, although you cannot directly win over the Runan nobles, it is no problem if you have public authority and let them raise food and grass for Your Highness. As for winning on the battlefield, you will always find opportunities. , His Highness is anxious, isn’t Cao Pi anxious?”
Zhuge Liang's words suddenly enlightened Liu Chan.
really
Compared with him, Cao Pi was on fire from all sides, and his butt was about to smoke.
In addition, the benefits of Xu Shu's business alliance caused damage to Wei's internal affairs.
hehe.
When the time comes, the fighter plane will appear!
