Jagged Warlord

54. Gold buys bones

Wang Jiang immediately felt that he had met a bosom friend, but this alone did not make him immediately make up his mind to jump to the new bank where there was no shadow.

The drink lasted until late at night, and everyone went back to their homes, looking for their mothers.

Li Mohan also returned to the town guard's office, and the concubine Xi Que went to bed early.Li Mohan hesitated at the door of the backyard, and finally decided not to wake him up, so he went back to the study to sleep.

After arriving at the study, Li Mohan couldn't fall asleep again.He closed the door and window, and quietly took out his cell phone to see if there was anything of value besides the gold finger.But unfortunately, apart from a set of books that systematically introduce Nazi Germany, there is nothing more valuable.

Li Mohan shook his head with some self-deprecation, and said: "When the book is ready to use, you will hate less." This sentence reminded Li Mohan himself that he still lacks a strong staff team.

Li Mohan is now a veritable warlord. As a qualified warlord, he must have his own staff team.How to form a team of your own?There are examples to refer to.The common feature of the shogunate of modern military and political leaders is the combination of "three ties", that is, blood, geography, and business ties.

The first is blood relationship.China's feudal patriarchal society has a long history, and blood relationship is the most intimate relationship among people.Within the consanguineous clan, the patriarch has coercive power over the family members, and the younger has the duty of loyalty, filial piety and obedience to the elder.The relationship of power, loyalty, and obedience among people reflected in the blood family relationship determines that politicians can easily bring the unity and personal loyalty of the blood family into the political field.There is a Chinese proverb that goes, "When you go into battle, you have to kiss your father and son, but when you fight a tiger, you have to kiss your brothers."

Tang Taizu Li Yuan rebelled against the Sui Dynasty, and his four sons were his most powerful generals.The monarchs of all dynasties have implemented the family system of passing on the sons but not the virtuous, which strengthens the status of blood relationship in politics from the system.It goes without saying that the leaders of the civil government should also give top priority to blood relationship when choosing their staff.

The second is geography.It is difficult for a military and political leader to achieve great things if his vision is limited to blood relations.The characteristic of traditional Chinese consanguineous families is that they live fairly fixedly within a narrow geographical range.for thousands of years.The intermarriage circle in rural China generally does not exceed 20 kilometers.In this narrow area, it is impossible to provide all kinds of outstanding talents for military and political leaders.Therefore, it is impossible for military and political leaders to be limited to blood conditions when choosing their staff.

Therefore, geographical relationship has become an important relationship second only to blood relationship.Geographical relations have their relativity. People in neighboring villages have close geographical relations with people in distant villages. People in one region have close geographical relations with people in another region. People have close ties.People who have lived in a common environment for a long time have roughly similar language and customs, so that they have a sense of familiarity and intimacy with each other. Their emotions are easy to communicate and they have a strong sense of local identity.In China's geographical relations, the concept of provincial boundaries can be said to be the strongest relationship.

The third is karma.The so-called karmic relationship refers to the relatively extensive relationship between teachers and students, classmates, colleagues, and sworn brothers formed in social activities.Although this kind of karmic relationship can be divided into closeness and estrangement, it can also become a very important relationship if the relationship is harmonious and like-minded, and it can even be compared with blood relationship and geographical relationship.

Feng Yuxiang, the leader of the Northwest Army, is a curtain master who does not pay attention to blood and geographical ties, but pays attention to business ties.Feng's "Five Tiger Generals" Zhang Zhijiang, Li Mingzhong, Lu Zhonglin, Shi Jingting, Song Zheyuan, and the "Little Five Tiger Generals" Han Fuju, Sun Lianzhong, Sun Liangcheng, Zhang Weixi, Shi Yousan, or Feng Yuxiang's colleagues in No.20 Town in the late Qing Dynasty, or At the beginning of the Republic of China, Feng served as the head and battalion commander of the No.16 mixed brigade.

In addition to emphasizing blood and geographical ties, President Jiang also attaches great importance to business ties.He started from training at the Whampoa Military Academy, and also served as the principal of the Army University, the Central Military Academy and various military schools.All the graduates from the above-mentioned schools are students of President Jiang, and Jiang can use the teacher-student relationship to win over them to serve him personally.

In addition, sworn relationship is also an important karmic relationship. The stories of Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei's "Taoyuan Jieyi" in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "One Hundred and Eight Generals of Liangshan" in "Water Margin" are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and have become a deep-rooted tradition.Modern and modern military and political leaders are keen to form power groups through sworn worship.

For example, Feng Delin, Zhang Jinghui, Tang Yulin, Zhang Zuoweng and Zhang Zuolin, the early members of the Fengxi Group, were all sworn brothers.Principal Jiang is also keen on this. Since he entered the arena, he has formed golden orchids with dozens of people such as Chen Qimei, Huang Yu, Li Zongren, Feng Yuxiang, Zhang Xueliang, and quoted and used each other.It should be pointed out that the reliability, cohesion and centripetal force of karmic relationship are generally not as good as blood relationship and geographical relationship.

As mentioned earlier, Feng Yuxiang's shogunate was established entirely on business relationships, but because of this, Feng Yuxiang's shogunate collapsed most thoroughly. In 1929, Han Fuju and Shi Yousan were first bribed by Principal Jiang and betrayed Feng Yuxiang. After the failure of the Central Plains War in 1930, Feng Yuxiang's shogunate collapsed and disappeared.On the contrary, Yan Xishan's shogunate, which relied on the combination of blood and geographical relations, was able to regroup and make a comeback.

Principal Jiang is well aware of this. He uses Whampoa students more, but he trusts blood relatives and fellow villagers in Zhejiang more.Song Xilian of Whampoa Phase I later concluded: "Principal Jiang's criteria for employing personnel are relatives first, fellow countrymen second, and students. And he really gives military power to relatives and fellow villagers. This conclusion is obviously in line with the actual.

As a time traveler, Li Mohan was alone, so blood relationship would definitely not be able to be used.Then we can only make use of geographic and industry ties.Li Mohan claims to be from Xiao County, but Li Mohan made his fortune in Henan, and many of his subordinates are also from Henan. Therefore, at the banquet in the Huibin Building, Li Mohan kept saying "we are from Henan", as if he had already regarded himself as a Henanese.Therefore, Li Mohan planned to fish in troubled waters, pretending to be a native of Henan, and promote a group of township party members.

The first thing Li Mohan thought of was Liu Musheng who followed him on the saddle.

Liu Musheng is a relatively traditional scholar who believes in the concept of "the king treats me as a scholar of the country, and I repay him as a scholar of the country".As a result, Liu Musheng's blood was stimulated.

He said to Li Mohan: "If the young master really wants to choose talents, you might as well follow the example of King Yan Zhao in the Warring States Period. The guardian envoy knows the allusion of buying bones with money."

In 314 BC, civil strife broke out in Yan State, and the neighboring Qi State took the opportunity to send troops to invade and occupy part of Yan State's territory.

After King Yanzhao became the king, he eliminated the civil strife, determined to recruit talented people from all over the world, revitalize the Yan State, and regain the lost land.Although King Yan Zhao had such a call, not many people defected to him.So King Yan Zhao asked a man named Guo Kai how to get a virtuous man.

Guo Wei told a story to King Yanzhao: Once upon a time, there was a king who was willing to buy a thousand-mile horse with a thousand pieces of gold.But three years have passed, and the Maxima has not been bought.An unknown person under the monarch volunteered to buy a Chollima, and the monarch agreed.It took the man three months to find out that there was a good horse somewhere.However, when he arrived at the house, the horse was already dead.So, he bought the horse's bone with 3 gold and went back to present it to the king.The monarch was very unhappy when he saw the horse bones bought at a very expensive price.But the person who bought the horse bones said, I did this to let everyone in the world know that your Majesty sincerely wants to buy a horse at a high price, and you are not deceiving others.Sure enough, in less than a year, someone sent three thousand-mile horses.

After Guo Kui told the above story, he said to King Yanzhao: "If your majesty really wants talents, you should act like the king who bought a thousand-mile horse, and let the world know that you are really seeking talents. You can start with me. People will see When people like me can be reused, people who are more talented than me will come to you." King Yan Zhao thought it was reasonable, so he worshiped Guo Wei as his teacher and gave him a generous salary.And asked him to build the "Golden Terrace" as a place to recruit talents from all over the world.Not long after the news spread, some talented celebrities and sages came one after another, expressing their willingness to help King Yan Zhao govern the country.After more than 20 years of hard work, Yan State finally became strong, finally defeated Qi State, and regained the occupied land.

Li Mohan knew the allusion of buying bones with a thousand pieces of gold, so he asked, "Master is more modest than Guo Kai, so who are Le Yi, Zou Yan, and Ju Xin?"

Liu Musheng replied: "Duan Qingxi from Xiaoxian County who is currently Xu Haidao Yin can be counted as one, and the young master is actually from Xiaoxian County, so being with him can be regarded as a township party."
