Tumeng: I am a national advisor in the Golden Family

Chapter 27 Genghis Khan’s Admonition

"This man named Zhang Yong is of great use to me. If he can give full play to his talents and abilities, he can make Mongolia stronger and more prosperous. I have always been very accurate in recognizing people. This man is absolutely amazing." Talent." Genghis Khan said.

The most important reason why he was able to establish the Great Mongol Kingdom, eliminate Wang Khan, destroy Zhamuhe, defeat the Jin Kingdom, defeat Xixia, destroy Xiliao, and destroy Khwarezm is that he knows people well and uses them well, and is good at discovering talents.

In the past, Mongolia was a piece of scattered sand. Why was he able to dominate the entire grassland after his appearance, and even accomplished feats that his predecessors could not even imagine.

It was because of the environment he lived in since he was a child that he understood what kind of person is truly talented and what kind of person only talks big words?
He has many generals who are good at fighting, and he knows very well the abilities of these generals.

Mu Huali, Zhebie, Subutai, and Chi Laowen are all top-notch generals in the world, but you can let them fight, but when it comes to running a country, they can't.

Even the most outstanding Mu Huali seemed a little unable to encroach on the Jin Kingdom. He still had to rely on a large number of local Han forces to achieve success.

Therefore, Genghis Khan now urgently needs talents who can help him govern the country.The vast territory of the Great Mongolia has reached an unprecedented level.

And this area will expand in the future, because the Jin Kingdom, Xixia, Southern Song Dynasty, and even further west are the territories that Mongolia wants to conquer. Under such circumstances, Genghis Khan urgently needs someone who can help him govern such a large country.

"Father Khan! If you say that the talent for governing the country is Yuelü Chucai, who has been relying on you for several years, didn't you say that he also has astonishing talents?
Could such a peerless talent not be as good as this man named Zhang Yong? Tuo Lei said.

Yelu Chucai's abilities and talents are obvious to all the Mongolian generals. He is definitely a capable minister in governing the country.

"Yelu Chucai is indeed a capable minister in governing the country, but he admires Confucianism too much. I have never denied the Confucian philosophy of governing the country. Their philosophy of governing the country can indeed make the country more stable and conducive to governance, because they pay attention to The Lord and Master of Heaven and Earth pay attention to the etiquette of respect and inferiority.

But Confucianism also has huge harm. For thousands of years in the Central Plains Dynasty, the use of Confucianism and law to govern the country can make the rule more stable, but it will greatly increase the power of civil servants.

And weaken the power of generals, but our Mongolia is a country by force. In the future, after my death, you will not stop your expansion. If you use Confucianism and Legalism to govern the country, it will be detrimental to us, Mongolia. "Genghis Khan said.

Yelu Chu had been with him for so many years, how could he not see that the other party was very talented!

Ruling the country with the Confucianism and Legalism of Yelu Chucai was indeed not what he had in mind.

Chatting with Zhang Yong these days, Genghis Khan discovered that this man was not a Confucian, and Genghis Khan also quite agreed with some of his ideas and views.

"Father Khan, do you mean that you want Zhang Yong to help you govern the entire Mongolia?" Tuo Lei asked.

A Han came to help him govern Mongolia?
"I have to use his methods and ideas, but I have no intention of handing Mongolia's national destiny to him. As a courtier of Mongolia, there will naturally be people who will help you control him. Whether it is civil servants or military generals, because of various interest disputes, they will secretly pull the strings. Gangs.

Forming an extremely subtle stability, just like the kings of western Mongolia, the kings of eastern Mongolia, and those heads of ten thousand households, the Han princes of the Han Dynasty, they are not monolithic.You have to maintain this delicate stability and cannot let one of them dominate. This is the way to employ people. You still have a lot to learn. "Genghis Khan said.

After being a ruler for decades, he naturally understood some things, and he hoped that his chosen successor would understand these things.

"Best greetings, Father!" The two sons immediately knelt on the ground and bowed to Genghis Khan, their eyes filled with admiration.

I didn't expect that my father had such high opinions on employing people.

"This man is very interesting. He seems to be polite and respectful to others, and he also respects me very much. But I can see from his eyes that this man has an unruly personality and respects me. , but he has no sense of awe and is extremely arrogant." Genghis Khan said.

In the past few days, intentionally or unintentionally, he has been testing Zhang Yong. From his conversations and behavior, Genghis Khan has already made some judgments about Zhang Yong.

"Father Khan, why didn't we notice that this person seems to be very gentle." Tuo Lei said.

"So Father Khan, how do you plan to subdue this person? According to you, I'm afraid it's not easy to use this person for your own use, right?" Wo Kuotai asked.

"Every lock has a different way to open it. There is no one key that can open all locks. The same is true for people. Give him what he likes. If he likes beautiful women, give him beautiful women. If you like gold and silver, give him gold and silver; if you like high officials and rich salaries, give him high officials and rich salaries, trust him, and you will naturally get this person." Genghis Khan said.

No one in this world has no desires and needs. If there is a person who has no desires and no demands, then he is not worth investing in. As long as you find the right method, there is no one who cannot use it for your own use.

Among all his sons, he is most satisfied with Ogedai and Tuolei. Originally, according to the tradition of the youngest son guarding the family, he should interpret the throne of Khan as Tuolei, but in some aspects Ogotai is better.

In terms of leading troops to fight, Wo Kuotai is slightly inferior to Tuo Lei, but in terms of knowing and employing people, Wo Kuotai is better than Tuo Lei, which is why he chose Wo Kuotai.

"The child will remember his father Khan's teachings and will definitely be able to take this person for his own use." Ogootai said.

"Well! You have to remember that if this person has great talent, he can be entrusted with important responsibilities, he can be given high officials and generous salaries, he can be rewarded with gold and silver, he can be rewarded with countless beauties, and if necessary, he can even be given a feudal title, but absolutely! Absolutely. ! Don't let him become a powerful minister, don't let him monopolize power, you must not let him have too much power, and you must not let him dominate the government, you must remember." Genghis Khan said.

"Don't worry, Father! I'll remember it." At this time, Wo Kuotai and the Tuo Lei brothers knelt on the ground and said together.

Are you kidding? How could the power of Mongolia be handed over to a Han?Even if you don’t say this, Father, we won’t give it to you!

"You are not allowed to tell anyone about the conversation between the three of us today, not even your sons or wives." Genghis Khan said.
