Chapter 41 4. Dang Li Shiqi PK Zhang Liang

In December, when the cold wind swept away the fallen leaves, Yingbu and Suihe fled to Xingyang in embarrassment, where they met Liu Bang, king of Han.However, to Yingbo's great surprise, when he had close contact with Liu Bang for the first time, Liu Bang didn't rush out of the house barefoot to hug him excitedly, but sat on the bed arrogantly and washed his feet. It was a truly dignified scene.Yingbo is the king, and Liu Bang is also the king, and their status is equal. Moreover, Yingbo came here for defection, not for debt. Not only did you, Liu Bang, not hold a banquet for him to scare him, but you even engaged in this kind of cold scene The reception ceremony, this is really bullying!

We know that it is not the first time that Liu Bang received guests while washing his feet.At the beginning, when Li Shiqi came to Liu Bang to apply for a job, there were two young girls under his feet to massage his feet. What kind of a big deal did you Yingbu see him washing his feet? But Yingbo didn't think so. Liu Bang was obviously trying to be cool and deliberately stimulated him, a dog in the water.However, it was too late to regret, and Yingbo's only choice was to draw his sword and commit suicide, and ask someone to find a piece of land to bury him.Yingbo did what he said, and as soon as he walked out of Liu Bang's bedroom, he drew his sword and committed suicide.

Yingbu's action reminds me of those stupid women in the countryside. Whenever there is a slight disagreement with their families, they don't care about it. They either pour pesticides or hang themselves. The purpose of their suicide is not to really commit suicide, but to commit suicide. Threat of life.Now, Yingbo wants to risk his life, and deliberately draws his sword in front of Sui He.Any fool can see that what makes Yingbo more angry is not Liu Bang's attitude, but Sui He, why did you fool me into this end? Yingbo's actions really frightened Sui He. Seeing that Yingbo was about to commit suicide, Sui He rushed forward and grabbed his sword, and panting, he quickly explained, "Your Majesty, don't get excited. The King of Han has beriberi, and he loves feet by nature. You Don't worry about it!

Yingbo was furious: He didn't wash it for a long time, and he didn't wash it sooner. Why did he wash it when I came to see him? Sui He: This is purely a coincidence, don't compare yourself to him. Yingbo jumped up: what is purely a coincidence, is it purely a coincidence that I betrayed Xiang Yu? Sui He: Your Majesty, you are wrong. In fact, Hanwang has already prepared high-end hotels and banquets for you. If you don’t believe me, come with me to have a look. Yingbo was dubious: Really? Of course it is true, true to false.Sui He half-coaxed and half-deceived Yingbo back to the place where he stayed. Liu Bang was really kind and did not treat Yingbo as a refugee. From the hotel accommodation and food and entourage, he was treated like a prince.Yingbo finally showed a satisfied smile, his mood changed greatly, and he stayed happily.

Sui He finally breathed a sigh of relief: What a spineless thing, the number one killer in the world is only mediocre! However, when Yingbo fled in an emergency, his wife, children, and children had not had time to take them away. Now that he was safe, he had to send envoys to secretly sneak back to Jiujiang to pick up his relatives.Soon, the messenger brought back a sad news to him: the whole family has been reduced to Xiang Yu's ghosts, and the murderer who personally slaughtered his family was Zhang Liang's famous friend, Mr. Xiang Bo. There are many kinds of hatred in the world, but there is no greater hatred than killing his wife and seizing his son. This news made Yingbo feel like he swallowed a stick of poison by mistake, as if thousands of poisonous insects were biting his broken body. Heart.

Yingbo was in tears, looking at his distant and boundless hometown with tearful eyes, a fire of hatred inherent in human nature strongly impacted his anxious heart.Xiang Yu, thanks to the fact that I killed so many enemies for you, you didn’t even spare my wife and children. Since you are unkind and blame me for being unrighteous, let us use iron and blood to end each other’s grievances. Fortunately in the misfortune, the envoy also brought back a revenge knife for Yingbo - an army of thousands of people.The sword is with the person, and the person is dead with the sword.Yingbo seemed to hear the sound of the blade cutting through the air and straight into Jiujiang, I must not just wait for death, I want revenge.

As a result, Yingbu, who was so hot that he was about to bleed, immediately summoned Jiujiang soldiers to fight back to his hometown. When Liu Bangwen heard that Yingbo sent troops, he immediately ran to persuade Yingbo. He preached to Yingbo: Brother, please calm down, don't do stupid things! stupid thing?How can revenge be considered stupid?I don't care so much anymore, whether it's stupid or not, I'll go back to Jiujiang and have a good time first! As soon as Yingbo was stupid, Liu Bang became angry. Liu Bang slapped the table and cursed loudly: Stop making trouble, you will know how to kill, who can be killed by thousands of broken soldiers?Do you think Xiang Yu commits fewer crimes?Do you want to kill Xiang Yu the most in the whole world?Wang Ling's mother was cooked by him, didn't he want to kill him?My wife and father are also held hostage by him, don't I want to kill him?

Like a tall and ferocious lion threatening a rough bull, Ying Bu was frightened. Yes, from burning Efang Palace, crushing Xianyang City, to breaking Tian Rong, massacring soldiers, so many tragedies in the world were all directed by Xiang Yu, and so many innocent people were separated from their wives and starved to death, all of them were directed by Xiang Yu Iron hooves, and in those tragic scenes, what are Yingbo's dozens of wives and children? Liu Bang continued to speak generously to Yingbo: Only stupid people shout for revenge regardless of life and death, but smart people will hold the sharp knife tightly and attack at the right time!Xiang Yu's attack was fierce, as if he had gone crazy, no one could stop him.I will send some more people to you, and you will guard Chenggao well. We have to stabilize our position first, so that we will have a chance to plan revenge in the future!

Yingbo seemed to have nothing to say, so he agreed to send troops to Chenggao with Liu Bang. Chenggao, an important military site in ancient times, will make its grand debut here with its tragic and tragic appearance.When Liu Bang and Yingbo's troops had just driven to Chenggao, Xiang Yu's cavalry came roaring like a tsunami. They attacked and cut off Liu Bang's corridor just like Yingbo attacked Zhang Han's grain road, and the Han army was like a broken one. The kite of the line is tottering in the wind. Seeing the elusive Chu army, Liu Bang was helpless, and Yingbo was also dumbfounded.Although Yingbo was the first to practice the Chu army's technique of destroying grain roads, if you ask Yingbo to defend it, you will never be able to defend it.Because this is too long a food road, you don't have absolute strength, and you can't stop the opponent's sneak attack at all.

Yingbu finally understood Zhang Han's difficulties at the beginning. Such a long passage is difficult to defend and easy to attack. Zhang Han's 200,000 troops can't handle it. How can you, Liu Bang, a defeated general, withstand Xiang Yu's attack? Liu Bang once again fell into a desperate situation, without food, the more troops, the greater the burden.Food became a major problem that troubled Liu Bang, but Liu Bang immediately found a solution, which was to inform Xiao He. Xiao He is in charge of food supply, who can he turn to if he doesn't ask you?So Liu Bang repeatedly called for help from Xiao He who was far away in Guanzhong.This scene seems to be the same as Monkey King calling the Lord of the Land. Sure enough, when Liu Bang called out, Xiao He responded anytime and anywhere. I saw that he brought a group of villagers and wild people, pushing food to rescue Liu Bang.

No good granary in the world is as good as Xiao He.The granary is dead, but Xiao He is alive. As long as Xiao He appears, the Han army will not have to worry about food and clothing.However, don't think that Xiao He is doing his duty and keeping the supply of the Han army unbroken, and think that Liu Bang is very reassuring to Xiao He to entrust important affairs and implement the state system.Wrong, in fact, Xiao He has always been under Liu Bang's surveillance and control. The tool used by Liu Bang to monitor Xiao He is the envoy. No matter how busy Liu Bang was in Xingyang, he never forgot to send envoys back to Guanzhong to say hello to Xiao He and listen to work reports.And Xiao He didn't even think that he was being watched by Liu Bang's spies, but at this time someone around him saw Liu Bang's performance and tricks. This seeker is called Bao Sheng, and of course, he is another scholar who only leaves his surname but not his name.Bao Sheng said to Xiao He: "Prime Minister Xiao, you have to be more careful recently, you are in trouble." Xiao He: What's the trouble? Bao Sheng: The King of Han spent a whole month eating and sleeping outside, but you were safe in the rear. He often sent envoys back to ask questions. He must be suspicious of you. Xiao He suddenly realized: I really thought that Hanwang really cared about promoting large-scale production in the rear. What do you think should be done now? Bao Sheng: Prime Minister, don't be in a hurry. It's a matter of nature, and there must be a solution.If you can send all the brothers and relatives of the Xiao family who are capable of conquering war to the battlefield, I believe that the king of Han will definitely trust you more in the future. With a good plan, Xiao He immediately mobilized his three uncles and six masters. Anyway, he sent everyone who could bear a hoe and a shield to the battlefield. Therefore, Liu Bang not only relieved the food shortage, but also received a motley army sent by Xiao He.The army seems to be no longer important, what is important is that Xiao He's painstaking efforts finally moved Liu Bang.After Liu Bang received Xiao He's food and army, he was really happy, and finally he was relieved to let Xiao He stay in Guanzhong and continue to do a good job in guard protection. Now, Xiao He's worries were put aside for the time being, and Liu Bang finally freed up his hands to deal with Xiang Yu with all his strength. Liu Bang asked Li Shiqi: "Xiang Yu is so fierce, how can he suppress his aura?" Li Shiqi: In the past when Shang Tang crusade against Xia Jie and Zhou Wu Wang crusade against Yin Zhou, they all sealed their descendants to their respective lands.Now that the state of Qin has collapsed and the world is torn apart, if you are willing to seal the six kingdoms, then the kings and people of the six kingdoms must be very grateful for your kindness, and they will naturally obey your orders to conquer Western Chu, and Xiang Yu will surely lose. In fact, Li Shiqi's strategy is nothing new. Fan Zeng once said this to Xiang Liang, and Zhang Er and Chen Yu also suggested it to Chen Sheng. The tragedy of Zhao Wangxie. No matter what kind of excellent advice, the first person to use it, we call it a genius, the second person to use it, we call it a mediocrity, and the third person to use it, we call it a fool!We can not classify Li Shiqi as a fool, but his opinion is really foolish, because Li Shiyi ignored a problem, the times have changed, and the magic weapon of feudal lords to buy people's hearts will no longer be I have a flash. However, it's okay for Liu Bang to pick up girls and play tricks. How could anyone see Li Shiqi's flaws.Therefore, Liu Bang praised Li Shiqi for his wisdom at that time, and immediately ordered his subordinates to engrave and distribute it to the princes.It is right to be good at listening to opinions, but blindly listening to other people's opinions is not called a wise man, but a stupid pig.Fortunately in misfortune, when Liu Bang was about to act according to Li Shiqi's plan, the genius Zhang Liang appeared. Liu Bang was eating, and Zhang Liang happened to be looking for him.As soon as Liu Bang saw Zhang Liang, he said proudly: "Zifang, a good man gave me a good way to deal with Xiang Yu. I think it's very good." Zhang Liang smiled, it’s a good thing, please tell me what a good way to do, so that I can learn it too. So, Liu Bang told Zhang Liang what Li Shiqi said, and after he finished speaking, he asked complacently: "How is it, isn't it very good?" It really doesn't matter if you don't say it, Zhang Liang jumped up anxiously when he heard it: Who taught you this, if you use this strategy, I guarantee you will be finished immediately. Liu Bang looked at Zhang Liang in disbelief: No way, what do you think is wrong with this strategy? Zhang Liang: You lend me the chopsticks in your hand, and I will make gestures for you. This is a vivid and interesting military theory lesson in history.The chopsticks are the pointer, and the dining table is the blackboard; Liu Bang is the student, and Zhang Liang is the teacher.Zhang Liang completely denied Li Shiqi's strategy from eight aspects. We don't have to mention them one by one. These are grass that fall to one side when the east wind blows. Now that Chu is strong and the Han is weak, why should they listen to you? When the time comes, they will not only accept your letter, but also laugh at your overthinking. Isn’t this asking for trouble? ? Zhang Liang's words were like a flash of lightning, flashing across the dark sea and illuminating Liu Bang's eyes, allowing Liu Bang, the helmsman, to see the hidden reef ahead that would be destroyed at a touch. Liu Bang opened his mouth wide in surprise, unable to speak for a long time.Suddenly, he spit out all the rice that he hadn't swallowed yet, jumped up and cursed: "Li Shiqi, this upright scholar, almost ruined my event!" Liu Bang immediately ordered his subordinates to destroy all the engraved seals of the princes as soon as possible. In this strategist PK competition, Zhang Liang won.From a certain point of view, Liu Bang also won. He not only won Zhang Liang, but also learned a lesson. From Zhang Liang's classic military theory class, he learned a new term: advancing with the times. Li Shiqi is a strategist, and Zhang Liang is a strategist. Strategists prefer the perfection of theoretical construction, but strategists emphasize the reality of practical benefits.The reason why Li Shiqi lost was because of his backward concept and impracticality. This is the biggest mistake that all nerds are most likely to make.The reason why Zhang Liang won is because of his profound analysis of reality, and his ideas have kept up with the pace of the times. Advancing with the times is just an abstract expression. In fact, all contests in war are, first of all, contests in the way of war.The so-called way of war has a very broad meaning. From the perspective of ancient warfare, it is mainly composed of three major elements: one is shape, the other is power, and the third is emotion.The so-called shape refers to the judgment of the development of the situation; the so-called situation refers to the measures taken to deal with the current situation; the so-called emotion refers to the psychological reaction to the war. Combining the above three elements, in order to win a war, first, the judgment and decision-making must be correct; second, there must be flexible and feasible measures to quickly cope with the current situation; third, there must be hard work in the war and perseverance. Li Shiqi's mistake lies in his wrong judgment on tense development, and his rigid and outdated measures to deal with reality. Let us take the example of Chen Sheng to analyze: when Chen Sheng raised the banner against Qin, he had nothing at all, but Zhang Er and Chen Yuyou persuaded Chen Sheng to enfeoff the princes, mainly in order to divide the land and power of the Qin Dynasty, thereby weakening the Qin Dynasty and strengthening the opposition. Qin Lili, this is called killing two birds with one stone, seeking profit for the sake of fame.However, since the Qin Dynasty has fallen, there are only Chu and Han families left in the world. If Liu Bang still entrusts the princes according to Li Shiqi's plan, it will actually reduce his own power and strengthen the spirit of others. Seeking truth. Therefore, the real strategy of war is not to be rigid and to respond to all changes without change, but to accurately grasp the development of the tense, and the measures must be flexible and changeable.From this point of view, Li Qishi was at best a second-rate strategist, while Zhang Liang was the strategist of strategists, the master of masters! Zhang Liang's plan is in the world, and there is no one better than him!
