Chapter 404 The Prime Minister in Black

"Ding, the third person, Fan Li, has an intelligence of 102."

Fan Li was a statesman, military strategist, economist, and strategist in the late Spring and Autumn Period. He once offered advice to help King Gou Jian of Yue recover his country, but later went into hiding and was revered as the "Shang Sage" by later generations.

Although he came from a poor and humble background, he was erudite and talented, and he knew and had a close relationship with Wen Zhong. When he was young, he was dissatisfied with the political darkness of Chu State at that time, so he and Wen Zhong defected to Yue State to assist Yue State Goujian.

Legend has it that he helped Gou Jian destroy Wu, averting the humiliation of Kuaiji. After becoming famous, he retreated bravely and traveled among the seventy-two peaks. During this period, he became extremely rich in business three times and lost his family fortune three times. Later, he settled in Taoqiu in the Song Dynasty and named himself "Tao Zhugong".

Literati worshiped him, business people regarded him as the God of Wealth, and politicians praised his way of serving as an official. The world praised him as: "Loyalty to the country; wisdom to protect one's life; business to get rich and become famous in the world."

"Ding, the fourth person, Yao Guangxiao, has an intelligence of 101."

In the eyes of ordinary people, Yao Guangxiao, the prime minister in black, is a murderous monk and the embodiment of evil. Even during the Qianlong period, Emperor Qianlong revised the "Sikuquanshu" and asked Ji Xiaolan and others to include all the famous ministers of the past dynasties. In the history of the Ming Dynasty,

The only ones missing are Yan Song and Yao Guangxiao.

Therefore, in the eyes of secular people, Yao Guangxiao's status has always been very embarrassing. But it has to be said that this man did change the history of the Ming Dynasty. Without him, Zhu Di might not have launched the Jingnan.

Yao Guangxiao used conspiracy to persuade Zhu Di to launch the Jingnan. During this period, he was Zhu Di's best adviser. After the Jingnan was successful, Zhu Di named him "the first hero of the Jingnan".

He is a monk who should have seen through the mortal world and be compassionate, but he is murderous and meddles in the affairs of the mortal world; he is a politician, who wears cassocks and is indifferent to fame and fortune when he is serving as a general and prime minister; he is the person in Beijing today.

The planner of the city's layout was the editor of "Yongle Dadian"; he was the monk Daoyan and the "prime minister in black"; he was the only monk in the history of the Ming Dynasty who entered the Ancestral Temple as a civil servant.

When Yao Guangxiao met Zhu Di for the first time, he knew that this was a person who could achieve hegemony. He said to Zhu Di: "If I can follow you, I will definitely wear a white hat for King Yan." "King"

Adding "白" means "emperor". Zhu Di was shocked when he heard this.

During Zhu Di's three-year campaign, most of them adopted Yao Guangxiao's strategies. The boldest and wisest thing Yao Guangxiao did was to attack the capital directly, which resulted in the massacre after Zhu Di captured Nanjing.

The war has been going on for three years. Yao Guangxiao suggested that instead of fighting city by city from north to south, go directly to Nanjing, capture Nanjing, ascend the throne directly, and the world will be settled.

"Don't go to the city, hurry to the capital. The capital is weak, so it is inevitable."

When Zhu Di went to attack Nanjing, Yao Guangxiao stayed behind and assisted Zhu Gaochi and Princess Xu of Yan to defend Peiping.

Zhu Di successfully ascended the throne and frankly said that Yao Guangxiao was the number one hero. But what is surprising is that Yao Guangxiao did not want any rewards. He wore official uniforms to go to court during the day and changed into monk clothes and lived in the temple at night. Even if Zhu Di wanted Yao Guangxiao to return to secular life, he did not

promise.

A man who was originally very ambitious suddenly lost his ambition after assisting the emperor to achieve great things. He wished he could have the Green Lantern and Ancient Buddha by his side for the rest of his life.

Although Yao Guangxiao has always regarded himself as a monk since then, Zhu Di still appointed him as a young master and asked him to teach Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Zhanji successively.

"Ding, the fifth person, Li Mi, has an intelligence of 100."

Li Mi, this is a generation of genius with both top-notch IQ and EQ, who is able to handle affairs and make relationships with ease; in the complex political arena before and after the Anshi Rebellion, he has survived the four emperors without falling, and he can calmly control the heights of temples and the distances of rivers and lakes, and wield great power.

The free and unrestrained life is admirable.

The Li Mi family has been officials and dukes for generations, and their political resources and educational advantages are still unparalleled by ordinary people. When he was young, he was proficient in Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism. He was able to write at the age of 7, and was recognized as one of the most respected people at that time.

A generation of prodigies.

Prime Minister Zhang Shuo was surprised to see Li Mi and congratulated Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty that Li Longji had acquired a genius. Li Longji was also amazed by Li Mi's talent, so he rewarded his family and told his parents to "take care of him and raise him well", and also paid tribute to him.

Let Li Heng, who was the loyal king at the time, take the initiative to put aside his status and make friends with him.

The famous prime minister Zhang Jiuling, who was famous for his talent, elegant manners and extraordinary demeanor, was also amazed by this young man at first sight. Although the two were very different in age (nearly 50 years older) and status, Zhang Jiuling regarded Li Mi as a confidant.

Calling him "little friend", the two became close friends.

Li Mi's most famous Peng Yuan appeared at the best time to solve the problem of the feudal town. He recommended Li Guangbi and Guo Ziyi to each lead a legion to threaten Fan Yang and Changshan, the rebel nests, and block the main transportation route between the rebels and Chang'an.

Then he left Fufeng and marched eastward, threatening the two capitals and forcing Anlu Mountain to trap Luoyang. He secretly ordered Guo Ziyi to give up the Huayin Trail and let the rebels run exhausted on the established route. Generals Suzong and Li Guo waited for work at the beginning and the end, only intercepting, not

Attack the city; next spring, King Jianning and Li Guangbi will attack Fan Yang from both sides, sweep the rebel base in Hebei from the outside, and then launch a full-scale general offensive.

This strategy not only takes into account the cold-resistant combat characteristics of the Shuofang Army, the main force of the Tang Army in the northwest, but more importantly, if Hebei is determined first, it will cut off the foundation of the vassal town. It can solve the rebellion once and for all and stabilize the area where the vassal town has the strongest strength in the late Tang Dynasty. The plan

The first step was effective, but as Suzong put political needs first and rushed to regain the two capitals, he failed to implement it to the end, which eventually led to disaster.

During Dezong's reign, Li Mi also made suggestions to suppress Li Huaiguang hard. He rode into Shaanzhou alone and defeated Daxi Baohui's rebellion without using any soldiers. Also when he was in Shaanxi and Guo, he planned and commanded the battle of Taiyuancang. He made camp step by step and used the terrain to ambush.

Defeating more with less, when reinforcements did not arrive, the Huaixi rebels were completely annihilated by relying solely on the maneuverability of the inferior local garrison, and they accurately intercepted and killed the rebel general Wu Fachao.

Wen Neng made suggestions and managed the country, and Wu Neng led the army and suppressed the rebellion. Li Bi was a rare person in the world who was versatile in both civil and military affairs. Later, he planned the Zhenyuan Alliance, which reflected his excellent diplomatic ability.

"System, remove Cui Hao and Jingxiang, and summon the remaining three: Li Mi, Yao Guangxiao, and Fan Li."

Although Cui Hao, Jingxiang, and Li Mi have the same intelligence, Li Mi is undoubtedly more comprehensive. Li Mi is not only a famous counselor, but also a famous prime minister. At the same time, he has a certain ability to command troops. In Almighty

In this aspect, Li Mi is better than the other two.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for getting Yao Guangxiao, commander 68, force 58, intelligence 101, politics 98, charm 72.
