Guo Shao did not bring the officials to the living room. When he entered the living room, he was surrounded by a girl from Jing. She wore a lapel robe and a squid. Of course, she could tell she was a woman at a glance.

"Please sit down." The three men bowed together.

Guo Shao naturally did not refuse, so he sat down on a chair facing north and south, and called Liu Renzhan and others to take their seats below. Liu Renzhan said, "Thank you for your majesty to give me a seat."

As soon as Guo Shao sat down, he felt that the decorations here of Liu Renzhan were really ordinary, and even the edges of the coffee table next to him were painted. Liu Renzhan is also a figure in the world. Of course, his yard was arranged by the government; but Guo Shao had also been to the family of a senior official such as the Privy Councilor Wang Pu, and the same feeling... Guo Shao used to think that the bureaucrats should be very sophisticated, but after seeing it, he realized that in fact, most official residences are far away from merchants like Chen Jiali. Chen Jiali's house looks simple, but it is carefully arranged, deliberately for a kind of temperament.

At this time, Jing Niang walked outside, and then she didn't see the slave immediately presented tea. Guo Shao remembered that when he left the palace first, he would not eat anything outside.

He ignored Jing Niang and looked at Liu Renzhan recalling the battle in Shouzhou, and his words were full of mutual appreciation.

Then he immediately looked at Lin Renzhao and said with an admirable expression: "In the battle of quarry, if the Southern Tang Dynasty used General Lin as its general, it is still hard to say whether the Great Zhou army could protect the ferry. They might be forced to retreat upstream temporarily and fall into a long-term war of attrition. It's a pity!"

Lin Renzhao was still relatively stable, and he said immediately: "Your Majesty is too good. Even if the last general can control the quarry battle, the process may be different, and the outcome of the war will still be the same."

Guo Shao also said: "As early as the first emperor attacked Huainan, he met General Lin in Zhenggu, and praised him that there were such military generals in the Southern Tang Dynasty, and Huainan should not be quickly drawn. I have heard of General Lin's talent."

There was also a younger man next to him, Liu Renzhan's son Liu Chong. Guo Shao did not ignore him, and then he said suddenly: "I led my troops to surround Shouzhou, but the troops in the city went out of the city to counterattack, destroying many siege equipment. The general who led the troops to raid was General Liu?"

Liu Chong was not as calm as Liu Renzhan, and was even worse than Lin Renzhao. Liu Chong immediately looked flattered and excited and replied: "That's right, it's the last general!"

"I was a military general of the Great Zhou Dynasty back then, and it was because of that incident that I was forced to issue a military order." Guo Shao smiled, "General Liu was surprised and had the courage and courage to be commendable."

Liu Chong pretended to be modest and said, "It was my father who issued the military order, and the last general just led his troops out of the city..."

Guo Shao nodded seriously and looked very enthusiastic. Such greetings set the atmosphere for this meeting... He will not neglect everyone who is qualified to meet him, and his words and deeds can make the people below feel appreciated; officials hope to be appreciated by those who are centralized and superiors, and Guo Shao's actions do not violate the principles and skills of getting along with others, so that everyone can feel more comfortable.

He was not such a person at first, nor did he understand the rules of the officialdom very well. But Guo Shao was a person who was good at learning, and these were all learned after learning in ancient times in recent years. Moreover, he did not learn superficial behavior, but only understood the ways of civil and military bureaucrats, and integrated them into his own perceptions to deal with things... So now Guo Shao often gives his ministers the feeling that etiquette is very simple and casual, but he seems to understand the worldly style very well.

Wang Pu once used ancient sayings to govern a big country like cooking a small freshman. Guo Shaoben's dream has not changed, but he gradually realized that he is no longer a warrior and can no longer govern the country with just one passion. In this country ruled by man, it is difficult to achieve something if he does not understand and integrate the old things at all... For example, if he cannot win over people in the first place, it is difficult to control it.

When the three martial artists present truly felt the emperor's sincerity. Guo Shao did not make any traces to direct the topic to the second pre-prepared step. He turned to Liu Renzhan, without saying anything nonsense, and asked directly: "I want to win the Northern Han Dynasty. I am here today. I am really going to ask Mr. Liu for his advice."

Liu Renzhan immediately bowed and said, "I am a defeated general, and I dare not make any mistakes in the court's major affairs."

Guo Shao said: "Mr. Liu doesn't have to be modest and polite."

Liu Renzhan's expression was very serious. Under the system, the power of the central government is very great, and the right to participate in decision-making on major events is not something that ordinary people have; Shi Yanchao may not really understand this, but Liu Renzhan can be so successful in the complex dynasty of the Southern Tang Kingdom, so he must understand this thing.

Now Liu Renzhan doesn't know what the Tokyo court is doing, so the suggestion is probably not easy to mention. What Guo Shao values ​​is not what he said, but let him understand: if he can speak in front of the emperor, the emperor is willing to listen carefully.

But what happened soon surprised Guo Shao! Liu Renzhan could say very useful things when he knew very little...

Liu Renzhan pondered for a moment and said, "I am not talented, but I have two humble opinions. I dare to ask Your Majesty, which is stronger, the Northern Han Dynasty or the Southern Tang Dynasty?"

"The Southern Tang Kingdom is strong." Guo Shao said without hesitation. No matter how much the Southern Tang Kingdom has a large territory in the south of the Yangtze River, with hundreds of thousands of troops, where did the Northern Han Dynasty get hundreds of thousands of troops? If there is one, there is no food to support it.

Liu Renzhan asked again: "Then, Your Majesty thinks which is more difficult to attack the Northern Han or Southern Tang?"

Guo Shao pondered for a while before saying, "I haven't attacked the Northern Han yet, and now I don't know how difficult it is."

Liu Renzhan said: "The Northern Han country has a far inferior to the Southern Tang Dynasty. But it is difficult for Your Majesty to win the country, but the Northern Han Dynasty is not inferior to the Southern Tang Dynasty. Why? In the past, the internal struggles between the ministers of the Southern Tang Dynasty were fierce, and many people were dragged down. However, although the Northern Han country was small and strong, it was relatively firm and firm. Moreover, the Northern Han country had elite soldiers who had been through the battlefield for a long time. Since the Battle of Gaoping, there has been no major war. Now there are important cities as barriers, and we should be able to maintain our energy and wait for labor. Therefore, this country is small and strong, and it is a hard bone."

Guo Shao nodded frequently when he heard this.

Liu Renzhan glanced at him and clasped his fists and said, "I think that before using troops, you can guide the profits according to the situation, try to make your own advantage and the enemy at the disadvantage. If the country is firm in the Northern Han Dynasty, you should find a way to get rid of it; if they wait for their work, they can make them tired first."

"Liu Gong's words are reasonable." Guo Shao agreed from the bottom of his heart.

In fact, Guo Shao's idea coincides with Liu Renzhan, and he is also doing this. However, Liu Renzhan is an experienced veteran after all, and he can clearly explain what to do; while Guo Shao only relies on analysis and screening strategies.

Guo Shao said again: "Mr. Liu's words have benefited a lot."

Liu Renzhan hurriedly said, "I dare not."

Guo Shao took this opportunity to hurry up and advance the topic, looking at Liu Renzhan sincerely: "I am grateful to the German army for lack of talented generals. Will Liu Gong be willing to give up again and condescend to the German army's chief general?"

Liu Renzhan was slightly stunned and blurted out: "As far as I know, I am grateful to the German army was selected by the surrendered troops in Huainan..."

"Duke Liu knew that Gao Yanqi, the chief general of Jiannan Army? He is a general of Shu and can also lead Shu soldiers." Guo Shao smiled and said, "Don't doubt people, but don't doubt people. I have never misjudged them. Gao Yanqi has not let down my trust."

After hearing this, Liu Renzhan stood up from the chair, knelt on the ground, and the other two people followed the rules and etiquette. Liu Renzhan said, "Your Majesty went to the humble house personally and treated him with courtesy. He also ignored the old ministers and had great trust. The old minister was grateful to Your Majesty for his gratitude to meet him. He was willing to give up this old bone and die for Your Majesty."

"Duke Liu, please get up quickly." Guo Shao laughed, "I will get Liu Gong today, this trip is enough! You are all right, you can all be under Liu Gong's command, serve Liu Gong's orders, and be loyal to the court."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Guo Shao smiled and said, "Next day, Mr. Liu will meet in the palace and discuss the military aircraft in detail."

He was in a very good mood. He not only got a general, but also received at least 30,000 German soldiers' strength... He has existed for several years, but the combat effectiveness of this army was extremely poor, and the Zhou court did not really win the morale of the army; once Liu Renzhan became the leader of the German army, Guo Shao foreseeed that this team would become really useful.

This is how the soldiers of this era looked like... The Huainan army could withstand the siege of hundreds of thousands of Zhou troops in the lonely city of Shouzhou. The same people became a miscellaneous army after being incorporated into the Huainan army; because it was difficult for people to establish trust in the military generals sent by the Zhou court. There was also the Shu imperial guards, whose combat effectiveness was even worse at the beginning, but after Guo Shao used Gao Yanqi, he could withstand the impact of the powerful general Lin Renzhao in Huainan.

Guo Shao believes that using useful people in the right places can affect the performance of tens of thousands of people.

He immediately looked at Liu Renzhan and hinted: "Mr. Liu, don't be in a hurry. Lead the troops first. I will definitely reuse it when I personally fight."

Liu Renzhan said: "The old minister only obeys Your Majesty's imperial edict."

Guo Shao looked at Lin Renzhao and said, "General Lin will not be worn with small shoes under Liu Gong this time, haha!" After hearing this, several people laughed awkwardly. Guo Shao said to Liu Chong again: "Father and son soldiers go into battle, General Liu follows Ling Zun, hoping to be as brave as before."

Liu Chong said with gratitude: "I am willing to be loyal to Your Majesty, and I will be indifferent to you!"

Guo Shao nodded with satisfaction and thought to himself: In this way, thanks to the German general Liu Renzhan and the Long Jie Army commander Zhang Guanghan are all veterans on the battlefield with rich experience in the battle formation. As Fu Zhaoxu's deputy general, at least they will not make any low-level mistakes in the specific battle. Although Fu Zhaoxu did not see any talent in the marching and fighting, he was a relatively humble and calm person; in addition, Guo Shao gave him advice in person, as long as he knew what he wanted, grasped the goal of the battle, and controlled advance and retreat, there would be no problem.

Guo Shao cleared up his personnel deployment in his heart. Fu Zhaoxu was a person who was easier to get along with and could listen to others. Liu Renzhan was a person who knew the overall situation. Lin Renzhao was stubborn and stubborn when fighting, but Liu Renzhan could control him.

After thinking about it, Guo Shao gradually felt much more at ease.
