Chapter 547: Cao Cao overwhelms Liu Xuande, Li Mengxi takes a moment to observe the situation(2/2)

Li Mengxi held a bamboo spear in his hand and looked at the official envoy with interest, "Although our army mostly uses wooden spears, even if it is a wooden spear, it is easy to poke holes in people with one shot.

If the messenger doesn’t believe it, you might as well give it a try.”

As he spoke, Li Mengxi glanced at the throat and eyes of the military envoy with evil intentions.

The look in his eyes seemed to be saying, if you dare to say something that you don't believe, I will poke a hole in you.

Cao Cao was secretly observing the strength of the Zhuozhou Army, but when others saw through it, Cao Cao was so embarrassed that sweat suddenly broke out on his forehead. He was forced to put on a smile, and Cao Cao praised him against his will, "The Zhuozhou Army has a good wooden gun! What a good wooden gun!"

"After saying that, he bowed his hands to Li Mengxi and left as if running away without looking back.

Li Mengxi was stunned, "Hahahaha!" He put the bamboo spear under his feet, raised his head and laughed, laughing very happily.

This messenger is interesting.

The allusion of flattery is that when someone wants to flatter a horse breeder, he will pat the owner's horse's butt with his hand and say, "Good horse, good horse!" while patting him. This is the origin of flattery.

It was obviously a very shabby bamboo spear, but the envoys from the army and the army boasted that it was a good spear.

He is able to bend and stretch, and he is also a wonderful person.

Smiling, Li Mengxi's smile faded.

He suddenly saw two guards following the official envoy. He hadn't noticed just now. These two guards were both wearing heavy armor, with red cloaks hanging on their backs. They had heavy stomachs on their heads. One had a long iron spear, and the other had a long iron spear.

Although the armor and stomach are just thicker basin collar armors, which cannot compare with the heavy armor of Zhuozhou Army infantrymen, these two guards are powerful, tall and powerful, similar to Guan and Zhang.

temperament.

Thinking about it, when he blocked the official envoy with a bamboo spear, he happened to have his back to the two guards. If the two guards just now were hostile, wouldn't it be dangerous?

Li Mengxi deeply felt that he had been negligent. He felt that his safety awareness was somewhat lacking.

(Someone may need one or two guards.) Seeing the official and military envoys walking away, Li Mengxi couldn't help but think.

Of course, the choice of guard must be men, and men as good as General Guan and Zhang are the best.

But Guan and Zhang, let alone being Liu Bei's sworn brother, are suitable to be guards. Just say that they are willing. Now that the Zhuozhou Army is recruiting people, the generals will be used as guards. Isn't it true that the great talent is of little use?

Just then, Liu Bei came over.

When Li Mengxi saw Liu Bei, he glanced at Liu Bei and said, "Mr. Xuande, there are serious deficiencies in our army."

Liu Bei was stunned and asked, "What's the shortcoming?"

"Messenger," Li Mengxi pointed to the officer's envoy who was walking away, "that officer and army envoy just now was so cunning and thieves that he could see everything in our formation.

This is inappropriate.

If one day, someone sends an envoy here and their negotiations are false and their lobbying is also false, but they use the negotiation as an opportunity to find out the reality of our army, what should we do at this time?"

Without waiting for Liu Bei's reply, Li Mengxi already had an idea, "I think we can use sacks. In the future, a messenger will come to our army and order the soldiers to put sacks on them, and then bring them into the tent. After the discussion, the sacks will be put out again."

In this way, when the envoy enters our camp, he will not be able to see the reality or reality in our army."

Li Mengxi felt that the method he thought of was excellent, and he even became complacent.

Liu Bei was stunned, "No!" Liu Bei stopped him immediately.

"He is an envoy, but the one who comes is also a guest. He is wrapped in a sack... This is not the way to treat guests, nor is it the way to treat envoys."

Liu Bei did not agree to use sacks to trap people, and Li Mengxi was depressed.

If you think about it briefly, in the Three Kingdoms of the late Han Dynasty, people who served as envoys include Zhuge Kongming, Pang Tong, and many others who served as envoys and lobbyists.

People like Zhuge Kongming and Pang Tong are very honorable. If they trap someone with a sack, they must be intolerable. Who can be tolerated?

This offended the envoy severely. Originally, the conflict between the two parties was not serious. The other party came to negotiate peace. I agreed to negotiate peace, and we could stop the war.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! You can bring a set of sacks to the envoy and humiliate the envoy. The envoy will be angry to death. When the envoy returns, you can add more fuel and jealousy to the envoy. Just one envoy can make the two parties fight to the death.

momentum.

From this, Li Mengxi learned at least two important things.

First, you must never put a sack over the messenger's head.

Second, the information returned by the envoy does not mean that it is completely accurate. It is also possible that the envoy may stir up trouble. If our envoy is a spy planted by some force, he may fall into the trap if he is not aware of it for a moment.

It seems that a supervisory system needs to be added. Whenever an envoy is sent out or any diplomatic negotiation is carried out, there should not be only one envoy present, but a supervisory person can be added.

The supervisor does not need to have diplomatic skills, nor does he even need to be eloquent. He can choose someone with a little force as a guard, or he may not be selected. The supervisor and the envoy go together, and the envoy is responsible for negotiations, and the supervisor is responsible.

Write down the general content of the negotiation and secretly report it back to the commander-in-chief to prevent the envoy from causing discord.

Judging from the probability, it is possible that the envoy has evil intentions, but the possibility that both the envoy and the guard have evil intentions is much smaller.

As for how to prevent enemy envoys from spying on our army's strength without using sacks, the first method Li Mengxi came up with was to impose military discipline.

Military law strictly stipulates that if an envoy comes, the general must negotiate with him outside the camp.

But when I thought about it, this was inappropriate. The general was busy with his affairs and had no time to go out of the camp to meet the envoy.

Therefore, this method is discarded.

Finally, the experienced Li Mengxi came up with a suitable method.

In some costume films, the dog emperor meets a beautiful girl in the wild and immediately has sex with her. The eunuchs quickly pull up the curtain to prevent others from seeing. Well...

Curtain.

Two curtains can be placed in the army. They do not need to be too long or wide. One curtain is several feet long and can be pulled on both sides to block the sight of the messenger.

The curtain escorts you all the way, and the messenger cannot detect the truth and reality along the way, perfect.

There is another oversight, and the problem is equally serious.

Li Mengxi reminded Liu Bei, "Mr.

, how can you resist?

At the time of the negotiation, the official and military envoys were as close as Chi Chi, and the soldiers were within twenty paces.

If the officers and soldiers really wanted to carry out the assassination, I estimate that both you and me would be dead."

Having said this, Li Mengxi looked extremely serious and said, "Mr.

In the past, wasn’t Jing Ke’s assassination of Qin a lesson?”
