Chapter 10: Shoot the arrow first and then draw the target. It’s easy to make clever calculations

 Zhao Kuangyin was stunned.

It is said that governing a big country is like cooking small dishes. Yuan Yan, Li Jun, and Li Chongjin are all powerful military envoys who support the army. There are thousands of things involved, and he must be cautious when dealing with these three people.

, walking on thin ice, as long as there is the slightest mistake, the newborn Song Dynasty, no, the Song Dynasty that has not yet been born, will also fall into turmoil, or even die in the womb, fall apart, and then the common people will not be able to get it.

This Zhao Kuangmei actually dares to pat his chest and swear that he has a clever plan to solve it without bloodshed?

This was a real big deal, even in Zhao Kuangyin's eyes, it was far more important than when and how Chai Zongxun would abdicate. Immediately, the originally cheerful black face turned serious in an instant.

"What are you going to do?"

"Just tell me whether you want to bet or not."

"I... you wait, I'll order someone to call Zhao Pu."

Zhao Kuangyin felt a little confused and even thought that he had drunk too much.

After a while, Zhao Pu came and heard that Zhao Kuangmei wanted to surrender Yuan Yan, Li Jun, and Li Chongjin without any bloodshed. They all looked confused and shook their heads repeatedly: "Impossible, absolutely impossible, my dear brother, you

Although they are smart, they don't know enough about the affairs of the court. These three people are completely different from Han Tong. In yesterday's situation, Han Tong was clearly a trapped beast still fighting. Even the soldiers under his command had no fighting spirit.

Let you take a trick, but these three people all want soldiers and territory, how can they be so easy?"

When Zhao Kuangmei heard this, she proudly raised her hand and said, "Why, even Brother Pu, you can't do anything?"

As a close confidant of Zhao Kuangyin, Zhao Pu is very familiar with the Zhao family. This Zhao Pu is in the kind of relationship where he doesn't need to go out of his way to see Empress Dowager Du. He is almost half a family member, so it is not easy for Zhao Kuang to get along with him.

Naturally, I called him "Brother Pu" directly.

Zhao Pu thought for a while and said: "In my opinion, the only way is to treat him with sincerity, courtesy, and try to influence him. If you can do it without using weapons, it's better to use weapons. If you have to use weapons, you should try to find a way to separate them."

To annihilate them, we cannot allow these three people to form an alliance, and then use the thunderous momentum to attack first and get rid of one of them first. As long as these three people do not advance and retreat together and form an alliance to rebel together, let us worry about one and lose the other and run for our lives. It is expected that we should also

It can’t change the world.”

Zhao Kuangmei sighed: "Oh, Brother Pu, what kind of method do you have? Not to mention whether they can change the world, the three of them are from the Song Dynasty, oh no, they are from the Zhou Dynasty

They are fierce generals. Those elite soldiers and horses under their command are all brothers of our great Zhou Dynasty. We are fighting among ourselves. Even if we win, we will probably be severely damaged. Who will benefit then?

Not the Southern Tang, Hou Shu, and Khitan? Besides, it seems that my brother is not loyal enough to the world. No, no, no, no, I can't do it, or I should never do it."

Zhao Pu was so angry that he couldn't help but asked in anger: "Then do you have any clever ideas, can you do it without using weapons?"

Zhao Kuangmei glanced at Zhao Kuangyin: "He hasn't agreed to my bet yet."

"Hmph, if you really have the ability to help me take over the military power of these three towns, what if I agree to you? I promise you that if this matter can be accomplished, you will be given a high-ranking official to do it, at least four

If you are above grade, how about letting you wear a purple robe?"

Of course, Zhao Kuangyin really didn't believe it. Neither he nor Zhao Pu could do anything about it. In real national affairs, what could Zhao Kuangmei, a young man, do about it?

To put it bluntly, this is not the same thing as forcing Han Tong to surrender. Forcing Han Tong to surrender relies more on whims and daring to think and do. Although this quality is rare, some people are indeed born with such courage, and

Not surprising.

But this matter requires real political wisdom.

Zhao Kuangmei was naturally overjoyed and quickly said to Empress Dowager Du: "Mom, you heard it, my eldest brother personally promised this. You must be fair to me and don't let him keep his word."

"Okay, okay, Mom, I promise you. What good ideas do you have, dear boy? Tell your brother about it. Look at him, his face is almost turning red."

"Hmph..."

Zhao Kuangmei was so proud when she heard this. She couldn't help but put her hands behind her back and said in a pretentious manner: "It's actually very simple. As Brother Pu said, these three people only need to be dealt with one by one.

, but in my opinion, Yuan Yan is the easiest to deal with."

"How to say?"

"Because everyone knows that brother, you and Yuan Yan have a grudge and have always been at odds with each other. This is why you are afraid of him. However, because of this, this person is actually the best opportunity for you to win people's hearts. If brother, you even

If you can accommodate Yuan Yan and give him a high official and a generous salary, the other Jiedu envoys will definitely feel relieved when they see this. In this way, it can also reflect your brother's magnanimity, which is similar to Jia Xu's persuasion to Zhang Xiu to surrender.

Cao Cao is the same. Brother, you are the hero. The more vengeful you are, the sooner you surrender to set an example, the better your treatment will be in the future."

Zhao Kuangyin frowned when he heard this and said: "If you want me to treat Yuan Yan well and ignore his past grievances, I have no problem, but how can he believe me? He has soldiers in his hands."

"Hahahahaha, big brother, you are just a fool of the authorities. The people who really know you best in this world are not necessarily your relatives and friends. They may be your old enemies. He, Yuan Yan, has been against big brother for so many years. I guess, he

You must understand your eldest brother’s character very well, and since he is qualified to fight you as a political opponent for so many years, he must also be a smart person who will not do stupid things.”

Zhao Kuangyin couldn't help but think deeply after hearing this, and said: "What you said... does make sense, but such a judgment is still too arbitrary."

"Hmph, I recommend one person to serve as this lobbyist. I will explain to him the power and make him surrender to the elder brother."

"Who is so powerful?"

"That's the one you sent to communicate with me yesterday, Pan Mei."

"Pan Mei? Is there anything special about him?"

"Don't worry about it. Anyway, if you send him, it will definitely happen."

In fact, Zhao Kuangmei and Pan Mei don't know each other at all, but it doesn't matter. He is familiar with history. Although our intelligence is average, who wants us to cheat?

Historically, Yuan Yan was forced to surrender by Pan Mei with her sharp tongue. Originally, Zhao Kuangyin just asked Pan Mei to inform Yuan Yan and tell him that she was the emperor.

Unexpectedly, Pan Mei overfulfilled the task. She actually took Yuan Yan back to Kaifeng alone without any troops, and personally congratulated him and saluted him, which made Zhao Kuangyin laugh out loud. Pan Mei herself

It was precisely because of this great achievement that he truly rose through the ranks, promoted through the ranks, and finally became the number one general in the early Song Dynasty.

As for how Pan Mei persuaded Yuan Yan to surrender, he didn't know. The historical records were not so detailed. To put it bluntly, the lot he analyzed just now was to infer the reasons based on the results. Shoot the arrow first and then draw the target. This is not true.

All the magic tricks are gone.

In this time and space, Zhao Kuangyin's usurpation of the country was much smoother than in the original time and space. There is no reason why Pan Mei in history has done it, but this Pan Mei can't do it, right?
