When nobles come to offer incense and worship Dharma, they will not be crowded together with common people.
At this time, the entire Tai Chi Palace was emptied out. Many pilgrims were kicked out inexplicably, and most of them gathered in the empty field outside the palace. Some were waiting impatiently, while some devout believers continued to pray devoutly and kowtowed.
.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for the noble man to come out.
It turned out that he was an old man who had a foot problem and was obviously unable to walk. Although he was surrounded by many followers, he did not look dignified.
This made many people who wanted to watch the excitement sigh in disappointment.
Until a wise man shouted: "That is Mr. Shan, the disciple of Shangshu Youcheng!" Many people hurriedly bowed their heads and saluted.
Tu Shanyi walked out of the main door slowly, and Chongxuanzi supported him and waited on him carefully.
Everyone knew that this Chongxuanzi was a disciple of Master Changchun, and he was very profound in Taoism. Seeing his majestic appearance, richness and handsomeness, they respected him even more. Hearing what he said to his disciple Shanyi, his voice was rich and deep.
Yue Er: "...Don't worry, old people. Elderly people often have chronic diseases. When the spring energy attacks, the spirit will be dizzy and the chronic diseases will come into play. Also in the winter, people can hold a stove and smoke their clothes, and eat the cooked food until it accumulates.
When the spring vents, it is inevitable that the body will be hot, dizzy, and have weakness in the waist and feet, all diseases accumulated in the winter!"
He spoke loudly here, and the believers lying on both sides of the road whispered: "This is the wise words of the immortal! Write it down! Write it down!"
The two of them came down to the carriage surrounded by their attendants. Tu Danyi got on the carriage first. Seeing that the onlookers were being driven away, with the attendants beside him, Chong Xuanzi hesitated for a moment, followed them, and reached out to lift the carriage up the curtain.
.
"Brother, I made a lot of promises to Guo Ning today...is it worth it?"
"What do Zhiyuan think?" Tu Danyi asked with a smile.
"I think this man is a tiger and a wolf, and he has little awe of the imperial court. If you give him support and allow him to calmly recruit power, I'm afraid he will be a source of chaos in the future!" Chong Xuanzi hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Brother, I have read poetry and books.
, have you forgotten the old events in the six towns of the Northern Wei Dynasty?"
Tu Shanyi dragged his legs, sat down in the car, and waved to Chongxuanzi.
Chong Xuanzi boarded the carriage in a hurry. The coachman in front shouted and the carriage started to drive.
Amidst the sound of wheels rolling, Tu Danyi said softly: "I understand what Zhiyuan means. However, the situation of the country is such that some things must be prepared no matter what."
"But……"
Tu Shanyi naturally knew what his brother was struggling with. It was not just Guo Ning who frightened and doubted him: "Zhiyuan, do you think some things will not happen if I don't participate?"
Chong Xuanzi's heart trembled: "The boss is saying..."
"If you think about it, Wan Yan Gang is still in control of the army inside and outside the central capital. He has all the elite soldiers under his command. He is also assisted by generals such as Shuhu Gaoqi, Shujia Chenjia and so on. It can be said that he is overwhelming. In terms of military affairs, I originally
It would be difficult to compete with him. So, why did he spend so much effort to recruit He Shi Lie Zhizhong?
In this regard, Chongxuan Zizwei never thought about it: "After all, He Shilie is also a veteran general?"
Tu Danyi shook his head: "What kind of veteran is he? He's just a vicious dog that acts wantonly. And Wanyan Gang's words are these four words, 'behaving wantonly'!"
He raised his cane and tapped Chongxuanzi's chest: "You also know the past events since the founding of the Jin Dynasty. At that time, King Hailing was in chaos, and Emperor Sejong was praised by the world. But King Hailing is still here, why?
What to do? At this time, Yelu Yuanyi and others need to step forward at the right time and do something that ordinary people dare not do."
Chong Xuanzi looked miserable and said in a trembling voice: "Brother, what you mean is that Wan Yan Gang suddenly supports the reinstatement of He Shilie in Zhongdu. His intention is not on the front line of Jinshan but on Zhongdu?"
Just in the past hour, he knew too many things that he shouldn't know. At this moment, he could hardly hold on, both mentally and physically. The cold sweat on his back was even trickier, soaking through the white robe.
.
Tu Danyi did not answer.
After a while, he said slowly: "When everyone doesn't follow the rules, evil dogs have their uses as evil dogs, and evil tigers have their uses as evil tigers. This Guo Ning is the one I specially prepared."
Evil tiger."
Chong Xuanzi tried his best to cheer up and persuaded: "Then the evil tiger must be usable! What's more, if the evil tiger comes out and bites people in the street, wouldn't it become a new problem?"
Tu Danyi smiled.
"Zhiyuan, you have never led a soldier, so you don't understand."
Tu Shanyi has been in power for decades and has seen many people. Of course he can see Guo Ning's character.
It seems that these warriors who came from the army are accustomed to using violent means to solve problems even if they succeed. They think that they can always kill them with swords and guns, so they pay little attention to matters outside the battlefield... and then die inexplicably.
This Guo Ning is the more outstanding one among them. He is not dizzy yet. Although he has gathered thousands of defeated soldiers, he knows how to restrain himself and does not go rampant in the local area. Instead, after arranging money and food supplies, he comes to Zhongdu to talk about it.
condition.
However, such a person from a very low background suddenly rose to a high position without any experience. His knowledge and talent have their limits after all. He has no way to recruit talented people to help him, no way to train qualified officers, and no way to organize an organization.
The perfect system needed to build an army.
What does an army need? It must have the training, promotion and selection of personnel, a military legal system for punishment and punishment, military staff, people responsible for horse administration, ordnance, food, baggage, and money.
These people cooperate with each other and are closely related to form an orderly operating whole.
It may be possible to select a small number of military and political talents among the defeated troops, but can a complete and reliable system be run with this small number of people? That is absolutely impossible.
That is not what Du Shisheng can accomplish. Du Shisheng's talent lies in his understanding of the nobles of Zhongdu and his miscellaneous knowledge, but not in specific practice... Otherwise, when he was one of the "Ten Philosophers" under Xu Zhiguo's sect,
His name is indispensable.
Besides, what role can Du Shisheng play? Confucian scholars or experienced officials from all over the country will not take refuge in the so-called volunteers gathered by Guo Ning. The thousands of elites Guo Ning claims are just unable to exert their full strength.
Caotai team.
Tu Danyi has noticed that since the formation of the so-called Anzhou Volunteers, they have never fought any large-scale battles, but Guo Ning went rampant with a small number of elites.
Among them, I am afraid that the internal military affairs have not been straightened out and the inconvenience of mobilizing the army is an important reason!
Guo Ning is obviously an ambitious man, but he absolutely cannot solve this problem.
In this regard, only Tu Danyi can help him. Although Tu Danyi does not have an army to mobilize, as the right minister of the minister, he is full of talents, the family has great potential, and he has many talents in his pocket. Only
If Tu Shanyi comes forward, this group of Anzhou volunteers can immediately obtain the necessary talents.
These talents will assist Guo Ning in building and upgrading the army into a truly usable economic and military force. This process of building and upgrading is also the process of gradually restraining the evil tiger.
When the time is right, this army will definitely act according to Tu Danyi's wishes.
"Besides... don't worry, Zhiyuan." Tu Danyi said slowly: "Guo Ning came here with Chizhan Sagai's head, thinking he could force me... That would be too much to underestimate me. This person has
He has no qualifications to be used by me. Whether it is worth my helping him or not, you have to give it a try to know. If he talks arrogantly but cannot stand the test, haha, then forget about it."
"test?"
From Tu Danyi's plain words, Chong Xuanzi felt the awe-inspiring atmosphere. He was slightly wary and looked at Tu Danyi.
Tu Danyi said no more. He lowered his eyebrows, as if to rest his mind. But under his kind and graceful demeanor, he was still the powerful official of the big money who had always stood firm after decades of ups and downs.
