Chapter 18: Some Talents
Li Yan suddenly asked, which made the second brother Gao feel overjoyed, and finally waited for a chance to perform.
Recently, he has often pondered about this matter, and he has already summarized a few points in his heart, so he saluted a little excitedly: "Returning to the general, I think that we must guard against the Tartars and take over the Ming Dynasty smoothly, we must do at least three things."
Seeing that he really had an idea, Li Yan leaned forward a little, "Tell me, what are the three points to achieve." ”
Gao Yihuan licked his lower lip, "First, we must establish a system, appoint officials, appease the displaced people, restore production, and effectively rule the prefectures and counties that have been laid, and build a solid foundation." Second, for the Ming Dynasty's surrender, we must adapt and maintain control over them. Third, I think that it is enough to crack down on the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty, confiscate the family wealth of the clans, relatives, nobles, and eunuchs who are close to Zhu Ming, and distribute the fiefdoms of the clans to the people. ”
The Chuang army faced the Qing army alone, and naturally most of them couldn't beat it, but if the Chuang army could inherit the legacy of the Ming Dynasty, and the third and second children would merge into one to form a new dynasty, then the Jiannu outside the pass would not have a chance to enter the customs.
After listening to this, Li Yan was a little surprised in his heart, because he had thought about these things, but Gao Yihuan said it more clearly and organizedly.
After listening to Gao Yihuan's words before, Li Yan just thought that he was a person with a heart for the world and a long-term vision, but Li Yan had seen many talented people, and he didn't think he was too special.
Now Li Yan feels that Gao Yihuan is a talented person, a person worthy of promotion and reuse.
"Yihuan, what you said about these three points is good, and they are secretly in line with my thoughts." Li Yan praised him, his expression was much gentler, and he was interested, "Since the end of Wanli, Jiannu has gradually risen and become the most serious border trouble in the Ming Dynasty. If King Chuang can win Beijing, he should indeed take Jiannu as the first strong enemy, and he has to guard against it. ”
After Li Yan finished speaking, he couldn't help but think back to the three things Gao Yihuan said again, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it had reached his heart.
At that time, Li Zicheng trusted the township party from his hometown more, and he knew the roots and knew the bottom of the matter, which made him feel more at ease.
This is also a common problem in the old days, and the employment of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is basically the same.
It's just that most of these township parties are warriors, but they don't have a long-term goal, and they don't have a plan for the future, so from the first year of Chongzhen, Gao Yingxiang pulled the flag to rebel, and now it has been fifteen years, and the army is still engaged in looting.
If this continues, then Li Zicheng will be the same as Huang Chao and Red Eyebrows, and at most he will establish a rogue regime, collapse the Ming Dynasty, and then make a mess of the world.
Li Yan is a powerful man in Henan, a famous family, if it is for himself, there is no need for him to scatter all his family wealth to help the people and participate in Li Chuang's rogues.
Li Yan is different from these northern Shaanxi rogues, he participated in the army with the feelings of Confucianism to help the world, so that Li Zicheng could accept the Confucian system of governing the country and establish an orthodox new dynasty, not to help Li Zicheng make a mess of the world.
Li Yan's original intention coincides with Gao Yihuan's suggestion.
He entered the camp with ideals, but after entering, he found that it was not easy to make a group of rogues change from looting to fighting the world.
In the final analysis, there were too few scholars in the camp, so soon after he entered the camp, he recommended Niu Jinxing, but it was still difficult for him to find like-minded people in the camp
At this time, he looked at Gao Yihuan and couldn't help but like it a little, so he intended to be promoted, but he was Li Zicheng's staff, so he could only suggest, but he couldn't directly give Gao Yihuan any official position, "You are now subordinate to the rear camp, I can't use you directly, but I will tell King Chuang about your suggestion, recommend you to him, and I will also talk to General Li Guo to see if I can change your position." ”
Saying that, Li Yan sighed a little and said: "Your father is very cautious in handling things, your talent is no less than your father, and being a department chief is indeed a condescending talent."
Gao Yihuan was overjoyed when he heard this, and he also felt that he was too wronged, but with Li Yan's words, his trip was worth it, he was busy clasping his fists and saluting, "I thank the general for his cultivation." ”
"You don't have to thank me, you are really talented, and I am just recommending talents for King Chuang and doing my duty." Li Yan waved his hand and smiled.
Gao Yihuan is just an inconspicuous general in the back camp, and Li Guo, the head of the back camp, is afraid that he doesn't know that he is such a person, he wants to go further, and the opportunity is too slim.
Now that Li Yan intends to use him, and feels that he has talent, then he can probably enter a fast lane and will soon be able to emerge.
Among a group of martial artists and thieves, Li Yan is undoubtedly lonely, he has many things that he can't tell anyone, and no one wants to listen to them, or if he says it, it is equivalent to playing the piano to a cow.
He said it a few times, but others didn't understand it, and he didn't understand it, so he stopped saying it.
At this time, he felt that Gao Yihuan had a good insight, and he couldn't help but talk more, expounding his strategy in internal affairs, and saying that he suggested that after capturing Kaifeng, he would first go to Xiangyang, then go west to Guanzhong, and finally join the army strategy of the Eastern Expedition.
Unconsciously, the time passed overnight, and Li Yan saw that it was already dawn outside the tent, so he remembered that he still had something to do today, so he ordered: "That's all for today, your father is my recruit, I give you an order, you can come often in the future."
Gao Yihuan hurriedly got up and saluted, "Then I will retire from my humble position." After speaking, he remembered Fan Dongling who he brought, so he asked again: "General, what should we do with the profiteer who was captured by his humble position?"
Li Yan thought for a while, "Leave him behind, I will send someone to interrogate him, and bring the confession to King Chuang, stating that Jiannu peeped into the Central Plains." ”
Gao Yihuan nodded, and then immediately withdrew from the big tent, and half of his face had already leaked out of the red sun outside.
didn't sleep all night, but Gao Yihuan was very happy in his heart, with Li Yan's approval, he felt that the opportunity to come out was coming soon.
At this time, he called Gao Xinghao and another brother, left Fan Dongling behind, and happily left the Zhongquan camp, completely forgetting about the report to Wang Jiaping.
At noon, the second brother Gao returned to the camp unhurriedly, Gao Yicheng had been waiting here for a long time at the door, he saw Gao Yihuan coming back, and immediately got up hurriedly and greeted him, "Second brother, Wang Jiaping's turtle grandson took Zhao Daxian away." ”
Gao Yihuan's face changed when he heard this, this turtle grandson really wanted to trouble him......
