Zhang Yuan didn't want to admit it, and he didn't want to admit it in his heart.
But what Kou Ji said was the same as what he did.
He clearly knows that he has the ability to make the horse thieves loyal to him, and he also knows that he has the ability to make the horse thieves willingly die for him.
But he never really recruited those horse thieves, and never thought of using those horse thieves to help him complete the orders Kou Ji explained.
He felt that he was helping Kou Ji to do things, and Kou Ji was able to provide him with a steady stream of manpower, so he didn't need to bother to recruit horse thieves.
Kou Ji stared at Zhang Yuan coldly, "You think I have always let the fish swim and the horse guard guard against you. But have you ever thought that I am also guarding against the fish swim and guard horse guard.
Yuyou and the guards of the horse patrol work hand in hand to guard against you.
You and Yuyou work hand in hand to guard against horse guards.
You and the patrol guard will work hand in hand to prevent fish from swimming. "
Zhang Yuan's eyes widened in astonishment, staring at Kou Ji in disbelief.
Kou Ji sneered: "Surprised?"
Although Zhang Yuan didn't want to admit it, he still nodded stiffly.
Kou Ji continued: "Nothing to be surprised. I am a superior. If I want to use you, I naturally have to guard against you. It has nothing to do with trust, but a pure power field method.
This is a dignified and upright plan, and it is also a method that every person who has experienced the tempering on the power field must master.
Yuyou knew it in his heart, as did the guards of the horse patrol.
Only you don’t know. "
Zhang Yuan's face was green, he groaned for a while, gritted his teeth and said: "The guard of the horse patrol is obviously so loyal to you..."
Kou Ji stared at Zhang Yuan with a faint smile: "I will press the biggest secret on you, and give you tyrannical strength, and then let you out without any restraint, without any precautions, what will you do?"
Zhang Yuan hardly hesitated and said: "Either day and night it's hard to get around, or lead the army to rebel."
Kou Ji was taken aback, and for the first time showed a satisfied look in front of Zhang Yuan.
"Fortunately, you didn't say anything about loyalty, or I would despise you."
Kou Ji stared at Zhang Yuan and continued: "I never doubted the loyalty of the patrol guards, so I let people guard them, not to prevent them from rebelling. I was afraid that they would be ill at ease day and night.
They grew up in Da Song, and they have become accustomed to Da Song’s rules that you guard me and I guard you.
If there are no rules, they will not adapt.
If you don't adapt, you will think wildly and simply kill your will.
They are warriors, and warriors should fight on the battlefield, instead of being consumed by those intrigues. "
Kou Ji stared at Zhang Yuan and asked, "You wouldn't be naive to think that without you and Yuyou, the horse guards would not be able to stand in the Western Regions, right?"
Zhang Yuan shook his head decisively.
The horse guards who crawled out of the sea of blood in the corpse mountain were more straightforward, but they were definitely not stupid.
It's impossible for a stupid person to survive one after another.
Without him and Yuyou, the patrol guards would still be able to gain a foothold in the Western Regions.
They will make the errands that Kou Ji explained more simply and purely.
Seeing Zhang Yuan, Kou Ji nodded and continued: "I arranged for you and Yuyou to enter the Western Regions. I told all the horse guards frankly that you two are my people, and you will stare at them."
After a pause, Kou Ji said quietly, "The same principle applies to you and Yuyou."
"This… "
Zhang Yuan spoke in disbelief, but could not speak.
Kou Ji sighed, "Yuyou understood my thoughts, and the guards of the horse patrol also understood my thoughts. So even if they knew that someone was restraining them, they still did not show any dissatisfaction and never mentioned it. Over this matter.
Because they know in their hearts that this is a rule they are familiar with, and they still live within the rules they are familiar with.
So they can get along with each other peacefully and joyfully, and they can even live together.
As long as they do not violate their respective missions, both of them can do whatever they want. "
"But you, Zhang Yuan, are different. The upright and upright scheming in your eyes has become a conspiracy, a suspicion, and a distrust. You always feel that I am guarding you, and always feel that I am deliberately targeting you.
You have been thinking from your own point of view, but you have never been from my point of view, nor from the point of view of horse guards or fish swim.
So you always feel that under my hand, you have always been an outsider. "
"You have always regarded horse guards and fish swimmers as outsiders, so you never wanted to integrate into them. You don't want to think of them as life and life, don't trust them, how could they be willing to treat you as life and death? ,trust you?"
Kou Jixu talked a lot.
Zhang Yuan stood in place as if he had been struck by lightning.
There is nothing wrong with what Kou Ji accused him of.
The three-party checks and balances, the open plan, and the rules that Kou Ji said all came to his mind for an instant.
He began to think carefully about the bit by bit of the days he spent with fish swim and horse guards.
Everything seems exactly the same as what Kou Ji said.
From the beginning.
Kou Ji didn't use any conspiracy to deal with him, and he always adopted an upright and arrogant scheme.
He thinks too much.
It was he who felt that Kou Ji would deliberately target him at the beginning, so he often speculated about Kou Ji's thoughts with malicious thoughts.
Kou Ji slowly got up when Zhang Yuan was in a daze, walked to Zhang Yuan, patted Zhang Yuan on the shoulder and said: "You are very smart, but unfortunately your mind is too narrow, so your cleverness has been mistaken for cleverness.
Obviously very simple things, but you think very complicated.
Chen and Kou were sent to you by me.
Do you know what I told them when I first met them? "
Zhang Yuan slowly returned to his senses, and said in a daze, "You let them guard me. Once I have a heart of disobedience, you can get rid of me at any time."
Kou Ji shook his head and laughed: "I haven't said anything like that. I just told them and let them follow you. What they want to do and how they treat you depends on the minds of the guards and Yuyou.
It is you who took the initiative to walk to the opposite of the patrol guards and Yuyou, and you are always unwilling to blend in with them, making them feel that you have different intentions.
So they are hostile to you.
Chen and Kou are also hostile to you because of this. "
Zhang Yuan opened his mouth in astonishment.
Kou Ji carried his hands on his back and walked out. While walking, he said: "Zhang Yuan, you are very smart and talented, but I don't have to use you.
Da Song has thousands of talents, and there are countless people who are willing to be used by me.
There are people who can replace you.
If I'm really afraid that you will endanger me when you sit up, you won't live until now.
I did not intend to tell you this, nor did I intend to tell anyone else.
But my guards who patrolled the horses have suffered too much in the Western Regions, and I don't want to see them make unnecessary sacrifices.
In the past, we didn't have strong soldiers in our hands, so we had to use our lives to get out of the pile.
Now that we have strong soldiers, we don't need to take lives anymore.
You still have a chance to integrate into them, and you also have a chance to return to Da Song.
do not let me down. "
Kou Ji's voice fell to the ground, and the figure had disappeared in the main hall of the City Lord's Mansion.
Zhang Yuan was left alone, standing in the main hall of the city lord's mansion in a daze.
Kou Ji's words had a great impact on Zhang Yuan.
Zhang Yuan never thought that the original appearance of the matter was far different from what he thought.
He always felt that Kou Ji's defense against him was a distrust of him.
But he never thought that Kou Ji should guard him.
A powerful official, risking great ties to send people in the Western Regions to collect money, rob horses, kill people, and crack down on territories, shouldn't he be guarded
If the wind is leaked, or something went wrong.
Who was the first to suffer
he
Fish swim
Guardsman? !
neither.
The first to suffer was Kou Ji.
As the chief envoy behind Kou Ji, once it was known that he had sent people to behave in the Western Regions, cracked the soil and sealed the borders, and impeached his memorials, he could fill the palace in Bianjing.
Even though Kou Ji and the official Zhao Zhen had a close friendship.
Under the general trend, the official Zhao Zhen may be able to keep Kou Ji's life, but he may not be able to keep Kou Ji's nobility.
With regard to the Western Regions, Kou Ji can be said to have bet on all official careers.
Compared with Kou Ji's career, what are they worth
People like them have died in the Western Regions for more than a dozen times, and they are not as good as Kou Ji's career.
As long as it is an individual, as long as he understands the situation in the Great Song Dynasty, he will understand how brilliant Kou Ji's career will be in the future.
Such a brilliant career, betting on them, shouldn't it be guarded
Kou Ji is very merciful without killing a person without disagreement.
If someone from Cao, Gao, Pan, etc. replaced Kou Ji, I am afraid that Zhang Yuan's head would have already dried on the flagpole above the city.
"My thinking is too narrow..."
"I have always felt that I was far smarter than others, and I didn't expect that I couldn't see through such simple truths...
"Those idiots all know the truth, but I don't understand..."
"..."
"Puffing..."
"Hahaha..."
Zhang Yuan slumped on the ground and laughed loudly, but there were two lines of tears on his face.
He has always felt that Kou Ji is a villain, a villain who has been deliberately targeting him.
Only now has it been discovered that Kou Ji is not a villain.
Not only is he not a wicked person, but he is much more merciful than the average wicked person.
He felt that Heaven made a big joke with him.
Kou Zhong held a weak underbelly in his hand.
But in the eyes of others, that is a weakness, in the eyes of Zhang Yuan, it is not a weakness.
Zhang Yuan is sure that Kou Ji never regarded that as a weakness.
Kou Ji threatened him with that weakness.
But that's just talking about it.
Because Kou Ji never threatened him with that weakness and asked him to do things he didn't want to do.
It's more of a fright, and perhaps a bit nasty.
…
Kou Ji left the city lord mansion and saw the horse guard leader approaching the door of the city lord mansion, telling other horse guard men about his feat in punishing his unfilial nephew.
As soon as I saw Kou Ji appeared.
The guard leader took the initiative to move forward, glanced at the city lord's mansion behind Kou Ji, and said to Kou Ji suspiciously, "Young Master, what did you say to Zhang Yuan's servant, why is he so happy?"
Kou Ji did not answer the question from the guard leader, but instead ordered: "Don't deliberately target Zhang Yuan in the future. He just has a gloomy temper."
The leader of the patrol guard laughed dryly: "Young master, don't make things difficult for the little people. Although Zhang Yuan has some abilities, he is unwilling to have a heart-to-heart with his brothers, just like those supervising troops in the previous army.
In order to avoid being stabbed in the back by him, the brothers still have to guard him. "
Kou Ji pondered for a moment, and said, "I used to be a little bit unsure about this person, but now I can more or less do it."
The guard leader hesitated, "The villain turned around and told the other brothers. But the villain can't guarantee that the other brothers will accept him. Brothers are open-minded, and no one can deceive them."
Kou Ji nodded slowly, and said no more.
As the leader of the guards said, the guards of the guards are very smart, and it is very difficult for some to deceive them.
If Zhang Yuan is unwilling to talk to them, it will be difficult for them to accept Zhang Yuan.
This matter cannot be compelled.
I hope Zhang Yuan will be able to repent of it under his reminder.
"Get out of the city... People outside the city should be anxious..."
Kou Ji gave an order.
The leader of the patrol guard stepped on his horse, and took the other patrol guard men, and walked outside the city with Kou Ji.
What Kou Ji said to Zhang Yuan today is quite different from what he said to Liu Heng.
What Kou Ji told Zhang Yuan was the truth, and what he told Liu Heng was half-truth.
It's not that he deliberately deceived Liu Heng.
But he was unwilling to let Liu Heng learn his own way of doing things.
From a long time ago, Kou Ji discovered that some of Liu Heng's practices were learned from him.
Liu Heng's father, Liu Mei, is a half-hearted politician.
There is not much he can teach Liu Heng.
There is only one way to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.
If Liu Heng is taking a serious official career, the methods Liu Mei taught him are enough to make him protect himself.
But now Liu Heng is not following a serious official career.
Liu Heng is now taking the path of an eagle dog.
The methods Liu Mei taught him were obviously not enough.
The path of the eagle dog is not suitable for seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, nor is it suitable for arrogance.
Otherwise you will die miserably.
Kou Ji didn't want Liu Heng to die early.
Liu Heng learns from him about layout and how to use conspiracy and tricks to survive among the many eagle dogs, which is the most correct.
Liu Heng's opponent is different from Kou Ji's opponent.
Kou Ji's opponents are all exposed, one by one can be seen and tangible, and can be used for conspiracy.
Liu Heng's opponents were all guys who were hiding in secret, all of them were somber-minded people.
For example, Chen Lin, such as the Wu Desi company who has never met before.
Chen Lin, the old man, can smash people to death while talking and laughing.
Although Kou Ji has never seen Wu Desi, the fact that Wu Desi has not shown his true face since taking office until now is enough to show that he is a guy who makes good use of conspiracies.
Neither of them are easy to deal with.
If Liu Heng doesn't know anything about conspiracy and tricks, he can be played by Chen Lin and Wu Desi.
