Chapter 308 [Four consecutive strategies]
Mr. Xu stroked his green beard and said slowly: "Lord, the county magistrate, we must understand that although Han Mo is less than twenty years old, his past actions are far beyond the wisdom of a young man. Therefore, from now on, we must not regard him as a young man. We must ignore his age and treat him as a difficult enemy. Only in this way can we not feel underestimated by the enemy and truly be prepared for this person!"
He Xuezhi said seriously: "What the sir said is very true."
Then Mr. Xu said: "The so-called four consecutive strategies are four consecutive strategies. Any previous strategy can work, so there is no need to use the subsequent strategy... The first strategy is 'pull'!"
"pull?"
"Yes." Mr. Xu said calmly: "Han Mo came here this time, and we don't know what kind of thoughts this person has. If he is smart and knows that Yichun County is our place, for safety reasons, he will definitely protect himself and not get involved in any right and wrong here. This is naturally what we want to see. But he may also use us as an opponent, make things difficult for us everywhere, and deal with us with Su Keyong's group of people. That is, we must take the lead in the situation that we are most reluctant to see but also the most guarded. Before we can figure out what he is thinking, this first strategy is to use "pull", that is, to win over this person. In fact, it is to test whether this person is willing to deal with Su Keyong with us... As long as we test this person's thoughts, we can know how to deal with him."
Situ Jing immediately asked, "Will win over Han Mo? This... I'm afraid it's not easy. The Han family has always had a very good relationship with the He family...!"
Mr. Xu said calmly: "What the county magistrate said is that I think it is not just bad. The Han family should be full of hostility towards the He family. But we must also understand that although the Han family has a bad relationship with my He family, it is not very harmonious with the Su family. In this situation, it is not a word to summarize who is against us and who is friendly. Han Mo can join forces with Su Keyong to deal with us, or against Su Keyong... or stay out of the matter, not participating, be an enemy or a friend or a neutral person, which is hard to say. Because of this, we must use the means of winning to test Han Mo's mind. If it is unmatched, it depends on how he chooses. If it is neutral, we send people to monitor carefully and we are on guard. But if Han Mo is neither incompatible nor neutral, then we naturally have to use the second of the four consecutive strategies to deal with it...!"
"What is the second strategy?" Situ Jing asked hurriedly, full of curiosity.
Mr. Xu smiled faintly and said, "If this first strategy is successful, there is no need to use the second strategy... I'm sorry to keep it a secret, let's see if this first strategy is successful!"
Situ Jing was a little disappointed, but she couldn't ask again.
Although Situ Jing is the highest commander of a county, in this chess room, she can even be said to be the one with the weakest speaking power. In fact, the county magistrates of the six counties of Yan State have never had much power. They have strong backstages and compete with local families by relying on the backstage. Just like Xiao Muzan, the county magistrate of Donghai County, who relied on the Xiao family as the backstage to secretly compete with the Han family, and was eventually designed and remediated by Han Mo to break out of Donghai County.
Officials like Situ Jing who had no background in aristocratic family and who were sent out only by the emperor's trust might have been ambitious at the beginning and wanted to compete with the local aristocratic families, but they would soon know how powerful the aristocratic family was.
After a confrontation, you will appreciate the strength of the aristocratic family and give you two things, silver and knife!
Situ Jing chose silver and chose the He family's silver, and became a vassal of the He family.
In other words, Situ Jing has become a lackey behind He Xuezhi's butt. His status is naturally not as good as Mr. Xu, who is highly valued by He Xuezhi. Since Mr. Xu did not say it, he naturally did not dare to ask too much.
He Xuezhi narrowed his eyes and smiled, "According to the words of Mr., let's start with winning over and see what kind of thought Han Mo has. Tonight, these people are going to attend the banquet, and they are all at the banquet, so they can be tested." He looked out from the window of the chess room. Seeing that the sun had already set and it was already dusk, he slowly got up, touched his thick chin and smiled, "It's time to send someone to invite our General Han to the banquet!"
...
...
In the main hall of the Spring Garden, there are two rows of nanmu low tables. The tables are filled with fruit and fruits. The fruits and fruits are all rare fruits, and the fruits and fruits are fragrant. The wine is even a fine wine that has been stored for many years. Such fruit and fruits and wines are extremely luxurious even before the flood occurs, not to mention that at such a time, it is simply the enjoyment of the gods in the sky.
There are two main seats, one on the left and one on the right, namely Situ Jing, the governor of Yichun County, and He Xuezhi, the head of the He family in Yichun County. On the left, there are more than ten officials from the three eastern counties of Yichun County. On the right, the first one is the supervisor Ling Lei. Below is the case of the Nanmu case. Below is an empty Nanmu case. Below is a black-faced official over 40 years old. His skin is extremely dark, his face is a national figure, and he is full of government officials. This time, the Ministry of Personnel sent a thorough investigation of Yichun officials. On the lower side, he was seated with seven or eight elders of the He clan and other He clan members. There are two or three officials below. They are officials from the Ministry of Personnel who came with Su Keyong this time.
Han Mo was not present, and the vacant seat was obviously left for him.
As for the commander of the defenders of Xinyi City, the commander of Xinyi City is not here. Now he is still in Xinyi City. Although Xinyi City is surrounded by water, it is not broken by water, so he stays in Xinyi City to maintain order. There are many officials and people in the city who have not been withdrawn. Some of the He family's direct line are trapped in Xinyi City, and only some of them are transferred out.
This was the first time that Ling Lei sat in the first place in front of so many officials and gentry, so he naturally felt unconcealed pride. Su Keyong looked calm and just watched the four dancers dancing in the venue.
The four dancers were all beautiful and dressed in beautiful cloud dresses like clouds, dancing gracefully. Naturally, there were musicians who were playing music for the dance next to them.
Everyone was watching the dance, and they heard a shout from outside: "General Han is here!"
Situ Jing and He Xuezhi ignored it and immediately got up. He Xuezhi quickly walked towards the hall door and saw Han Mo appearing in front of the hall door, and behind him was the guards' gentry leader Miao Wu wearing the same armor.
Miao Wu was the lieutenant of the infantry team of the Leopard Turban. Even if Han Mo, the grain protection officer, was his boss, his identity was extremely impressive in this place. He was the second only to the commander in the Imperial Guard.
As soon as the two appeared, everyone in the hall stood up and greeted each other with a stern hand.
He Xuezhi smiled at the meeting and said, "General Han and General Miao, if you have any mistakes, don't mind it!"
Han Mo took off his helmet, clamped it in his arms, and smiled and said, "Brother He Shi, official business is important. I have only pulled out the grain point and cleared the warehouse. Let you wait for a long time. Don't blame me."
Everyone laughed and said, "Where is it, General Han and General Miao have worked hard!"
He Xuezhi smiled and said, "These are mostly officials and gentry in Yichun, and they all want to see General Han's style..." He pointed to Su Keyong on the seat and said, "General Han, that is Lord Su Keyong and Su of the Ministry of Personnel!"
Han Mo looked up and happened to meet Su Keyong's gaze. This was the first time the two of them met. Both of them looked very calm, and they hugged each other, but they didn't say much.
Ling Lei was already screaming at the other side: "General Han, come on, come on, sit here!" The empty seat beside him was prepared for Han Mo.
Although Ling Lei came here this time, he was very honored to have the identity of the Supervisor, but he had no soldiers under his command. He came here because he was with Han Mo. So when he was with Han Mo, it was like the group of imperial guards who were his people. He was determined to show his intimacy with Han Mo in front of others and add weight to his identity as the "Supervisor".
Han Mo was not polite, and went up to sit down in the empty seat, put the leopard helmet on the case, and Miao Wu also sat down on a case below.
He Xuezhi returned to his seat and said with a smile: "Everyone should take your seat!" He whispered: "Serve the food!"
So a group of maids came forward to place the fruits and vegetables on each of them again, leaving a large area of space, and soon a servant brought the fragrant food to the table.
Han Mo kept a smile. In this case, Chunyuan could still have such luxurious food. I wonder what kind of mood the victims facing death would know about such a situation.
No one spoke for a while, everyone's thoughts were buried in their hearts, and the atmosphere was quite strange.
In the end, Su Keyong, who had a dark skin, broke the silence, "What a hearty food..."
He Xuezhi immediately smiled and said, "Today we will hold a banquet to entertain the supervisor, General Han, Lord Su, and General Miao, to welcome you. If it is too shabby, it is really not a way to treat guests..." He laughed and said, "I will give my all to you, sir, this is my devotion to you... We Yichun people talk about face and affection. Dedicating everything we have to entertain friends. This is the habit of us Yichun people!"
Su Keyong suddenly laughed and said, "This cannot be said like this. The emperor appointed us to Yichun, but he was not going to be friends with you... If he became friends, many things would inevitably be restricted. The county magistrate, but I wonder if this is the case?"
Situ Jing's eyes flashed with a cold look, but she smiled and said, "Mr. Su, don't be obsessed with everything. Although Mr. Su has official duties to do this, we are all serving the emperor, as our colleagues, at the dinner table, and we are friends. When we go out, we will do our best, regardless of personal friendship!"
He Xuezhi touched the bare flesh chin and said, "No, there are friends at the wine table, and friends at the wine table!"
Han Mo watched coldly, his handsome face looked calm. These people had a clear position and were very hostile.
There are friends at the dinner table... When you go out, you will be your life-and-death enemy!
But I wonder if there will be a good show at today’s banquet?
