Mythology Starts with Childish Skills

Just when Meng Zhao was instructing Cao Zhan on related matters, two guard generals, Li Ao and Shen Zhihang, were gathered in the tent where Mo Li was. The outside is spooky.

Mo Li actually returned to the Shenwei Army with He Xin and others. When he came back, he ordered people to invite Li Ao and Shen Zhihang to come over and narrate the story.

He also ordered Huotoujun to cook some good wine and food and put them on the table.

The three of them seemed to be having a dinner together, but in fact, the food on the table was basically untouched. Instead, they kept talking.

Although these three people are all guard generals, they all have one thing in common. Like Mo Li, their relationship with Bai Shuai was quite intriguing, and it is difficult for them to gain Meng Zhao's trust and reuse.

Either they were like Li Ao and Shen Zhihang, who had a counterproductive effect on Meng Zhao's assassination by the Death Guards, and they might be people whom Meng Zhao disliked and was suspicious of.

In fact, when Li Ao and Shen Zhihang saw each other, they vaguely understood Mo Li's intention of inviting them, but out of some calculation, they still happily entered the big tent.

Food and wine had been placed inside, and not long after they sat down, Mo Li, who had changed into ordinary clothes, entered and greeted the two of them, mainly to connect with each other.

After seeing the two people's expressions getting impatient, Mo Li said,

"I wonder if you two know that Lingwu City has sent people over. I am traveling with this group of people from Lingwu City. I feel that the helpers summoned by the young master are actually just like that and cannot be used for much purpose.

Then again, although this group of people doesn't seem to be very helpful, the young master's close confidant, the old man, must have come to our army to serve as eyes and ears to monitor us. He has a high status, and it's possible that he will be subjected to their arrogance. You two Also be mentally prepared. "

Although Li Ao and Shen Zhihang were reluctant to summon Meng Zhao's men from Lingwu City, they knew it was a reasonable thing and did not dare to express their dissatisfaction.

Hearing what Li Mo Li said, the two of them looked at each other in the air, seeming to figure out the intention of Li Mo Li's words.

"Mo Li, we have been together for several years. Although we don't interact much in normal times, the six guard generals can be said to share weal and woe. What do you want to do by saying this? Are you trying to drive a wedge between us and those in Lingwu City? relationship, thereby causing the young master’s dissatisfaction?”

Some of Meng Zhao's arrangements were actually quite risky, because he still handed over the military power of the Shenwei Army to the original six generals without depriving him of any authority.

As for these people, their loyalty to Meng Zhao is worrying, and they have a master-slave relationship with Bai Shuai. It is really difficult to predict what will happen in the future.

In fact, it's not that we don't want to reorganize our military power, but that there is no one to use it.

If someone is replaced rashly, the army will be unstable, and even those who are willing to take the opportunity to stir up trouble and cause some disputes will not be beautiful.

Secondly, he came to Liangzhou alone after all. Although he had five thousand Danchi warriors as his backing, it was still insufficient compared to the huge Shenwei Army. At the same time, it would only take a short time to suppress the top leaders of the Shenwei Army with force. , cannot be used for a lifetime, so not intervening in military power is also a kind of appeasement and division of interests.

If these six generals were originally dissatisfied with Meng Zhao for five points, then retaining military power would resolve at least three points.

However, this is not a long-term solution after all. If Meng Zhao has been sitting in the Shenwei Army, he is confident that he can suppress everyone, but once he leaves and returns to Lingwu City, it is really difficult to predict what will happen to this army.

Never underestimate a person's ambition and desire, let alone try to prove the existence of such ambition and desire. Therefore, Meng Zhao just needed Cao Zhan and others to help him maintain this situation.

To describe the relationship more clearly, although these generals still have military power and prestige, Cao Zhan and other people from Lingwu City are equivalent to supervisors and can control them.

This is somewhat different from the relationship between the five holy envoys in the past.

Because the five holy envoys and the six guard generals are basically in an equal relationship and a cooperative relationship, there may be emphasis, but they will not say that the guard generals must listen to what your holy envoy says.

This is not the case with the supervisory army. If the supervisory army and the guard general have different opinions, in most cases, the supervisory army will still follow the wishes of the supervisory army.

Therefore, in terms of status, supervisors are higher than generals.

In fact, Mo Li said, "How could Li Ao and Shen Zhihang not understand this truth?"

In the past, they were earth emperors, but from now on there will be a few more emperors above their heads, and they will definitely not be willing to do so.

But then again, with Meng Zhao's arrangement like this, if they express any dissatisfaction or malice, their only military power may be taken away, or even their lives may be at risk. In comparison, being a lowly and petty person is a kind of Not a bad choice.

When Li Ao heard Li Ao's question, Li Ao's expression froze. He also had a rebellious temper, but after thinking about some thoughts in his heart, he suppressed his anger and dissatisfaction and said with a smile,

“General Lee misunderstood, I was not trying to sow discord, but I was talking about the reality.

We have only been together with the young master for a short time. After all, we are not direct relatives, and the level of trust is low. In the future, I mean the future, once we get into trouble and have conflicts with these people in Lingwu City.

Tell me, do you believe these people or us? "

As the saying goes, rough words don't mean rough words. Mo Li's words didn't sound good to the ears, but Li Ao and Shen Zhihang did hear them in their hearts.

This is not alarmist, but a real possibility.

People have seven emotions and six desires, and if they have seven emotions and six desires, they will want something. Once there is a conflict of interest, contradiction, and corruption, it is a situation that will naturally arise.

Why were eunuchs in ancient times so hated?

To a large extent, they are the emperor's confidants and the eyes and ears. Many times, if you have conflicts with them, no matter whether it is right or wrong, you are often the one who suffers.

Because eunuchs are used to showing off their words and deceiving the saints.

In ancient times, eunuchs were often the supervisors of the army. It is conceivable that Cao Zhan and others also had similar characteristics.

After a pause, Li Li continued,

“And we people are also divided into three, six, and nine grades.

That Ji Rulin and Hong Tianzheng were the most trusted people by the young master. Whatever benefits and achievements they had, they would probably follow them closely.

There is no way, Ji Rulin has a good sister, and she is from the Danchi clan, so the master has his own plans.

Regardless of whether we like Hong Tianzheng or not, there is no doubt about his ability, and I am convinced.

In addition, everyone also knows about his wife's situation. The young master is so kind to her, and he will hardly betray her, so it makes sense for him to be trusted.

As for the three of us.

I had a relationship with Bai Shuai before, and I'm afraid that no matter how much we do, the young master won't be able to trust him wholeheartedly.

As for the two of you, you more or less did something wrong when the young master was assassinated last time.

Therefore, we should join a group to stay warm to avoid being bullied. "
