Chapter 315 Challenge again
"Please choose, advance and retreat?" Zhao Li felt a little confused while thinking about something: "Don't you need balance?"
"Balance is needed, but don't you think it's better not to play those boring balance tricks if you want to be low-key." Kang Hongyuan is definitely a master in this kind of struggle for power and profit. His casual guidance makes Zhao Limao suddenly feel: "Besides, if you want to play balance, are you planning to help General Lucas's men oppress the people of Cleveland, or do you turn around?"
"It makes sense." Zhao Li nodded. Now he is too sharp. If he really wants to play these childish game of power between the big foxes chosen by the two old foxes, he might be able to backfire. Instead, it is better to maintain his own style and try to be as low-key as possible.
"Of course, your favored subordinates must make it clear to them that they can get as much power as they can. Although this is not your direct line, it can at least give you a little help in the early stages." Kang Hongyuan guided Zhao Li untiringly: "I believe that even your two lieutenant generals and deputys will not be so stingy with these positions at most. "
Zhao Li also accepted it humbly. This was the first time Zhao Li had come into contact with such a high position. Although Kang Hongyuan's previous theory of interests can still be used, the small-scale fights in the past cannot be compared with the current high position, and it is very necessary to improve further.
"As for the choice!" Kang Hongyuan paused: "You can learn from General Lucas and General Philip."
"Think about it, strictly speaking, you are the direct descendant of General Lucas, and contributed a lot of money, and of course, you also gained corresponding benefits. However, once the war reaches an irreversible point, you will be the first to be regarded as an abandoned son. Of course, you are lucky and regained the edge planet, so you will immediately become General Lucas' hero, and all the rewards will be paid." Kang Hongyuan analyzed for Zhao Li in detail: "The easiest, but the most practical way to choose."
"The same goes for General Philip." Kang Hongyuan, as an outsider, saw clearly than Zhao Li: "When you first went to the Military Intelligence Department, you did not exist and didn't care what you did. However, when your work improved, you immediately began to protect you. Moreover, when you were about to transfer, he even generously asked you to choose the people you needed and give favors."
"Is this the so-called trade-off?" Zhao Li listened to Kang Hongyuan's words while carefully recalling the process of his interactions with General Lucas and General Philip. It is undeniable that Kang Hongyuan's words sounded very reasonable: "Is there only such a naked interest relationship between people?"
"It's not the case." Kang Hongyuan shook his head: "If people are really just a relationship of interest, it will be simple. There are many other undeterminable factors during this period, such as family, friendship, love, and many other favors. Can you say that there is a relationship of interest between you and your women?"
When Kang Hongyuan talked about his women, even someone like Zhao Li who has become a fait accompli, he was still a little embarrassed.
"What's so sorry for this?" Kang Hongyuan shook his head: "I just don't have this ability. Otherwise, I will learn from you and be a happy Mr. Zhao. Hahahaha."
When Zhao Li heard Kang Hongyuan's unscrupulous teasing, his face seemed to be a little uneasy. Just as he was about to speak, Kang Hongyuan had already spoken first.
"To be honest, your cover-up and disguise is really successful." Kang Hongyuan began to appreciate it after teasing, which made Zhao Li suddenly have no place to exclaim, and he endured it very sad.
"Actually, you are unconsciously following the principle of advancing and retreating." Kang Hongyuan was very satisfied with Zhao Li's recent performance, so he naturally had to praise him appropriately in terms of what he was not good at: "In fact, as long as you control the principle of maximizing interests and adding a detailed rule of minimizing losses, I believe you can hold on to many scenes. Of course, this does not include some irrational behaviors that happened by chance. Fortunately, you have controlled this aspect well, but it will explode at some times. It seems that the lustful Mr. Zhao is really pitying."
Kang Hongyuan's words clearly refer to Zhao Li's angry and forced himself to open the White Niao Military Base to save Li Mengdie and the others. However, strictly speaking, because of that matter, not only did Zhao Li become the commander-in-chief of the military region, but also minimized the possible losses. It cannot be said arbitrarily that time was completely incorrect.
"There is nothing else to say." Kang Hongyuan's guidance to Zhao Li was not that complicated. He just mentioned it a little in some key points, and with Zhao Li's intelligence, he would naturally understand it. Of course, Zhao Li's understanding is one thing, but real doing things is another. This is not something that Zhao Li can easily grasp.
"Actually, you don't have to do any professional training." Finally, Kang Hongyuan gave Zhao Li a suggestion that is not a suggestion: "Since you have to keep a low profile, the better. What do you have such professional command skills? Do you really need to fight a big battle? Do you really think that the possible troops in your hands that are about to be pieced together from various military regions are really possible to go to the battlefield?"
"It's absolutely impossible." Zhao Li shook his head directly. Even if he didn't understand the command of large-scale army clusters, he knew this. Kang Hongyuan was right. Whether the troops drawn from various military regions can be well managed is a huge problem. This is enough for the two lieutenant generals to have a headache. In the short term, at least within three years, the White Niao Military Region will never have the ability to fight on a large scale.
Now Zhao Li also fully understood that the so-called balance is simply a joke. In such a messy situation, the two lieutenant generals and deputys were probably busy. Zhao Li would not cause trouble and they were already burning incense. They were not concerned about whether they would put him in vain or not. What could really play a role was the young officers from the special investigation office, who might have arranged some obedient people to their subordinates to pave the way for their juniors. And they all owe Zhao Li a favor.
"So, what you call training is fine, just go through the motions. As long as you can understand the orders and clarify their ideas with others' explanations, that's fine." Kang Hongyuan still pointed at Zhao Li very carefully: "Believe me, if you want to be low-key, these are enough."
"I understand." Zhao Li nodded, and he also had a very good understanding of Kang Hongyuan's intention. He also felt appropriately grateful: "By the way, what do you think of the development of several planets of Chen Yong's rebel army?"
"True or lies?" Kang Hongyuan did not answer directly, but instead gave Zhao Li a choice.
"Tell me." Zhao Li did not directly choose the truth like ordinary people, but chose to listen to it all. The lies that can be told by Old Man Kang himself show that there must be deep-seated reasons, and listening is by no means a bad thing.
"The lies are, and the development is very good. In a few years, it may be possible to restore the energy lost by the war and have the ability to confront the Federation again." Even when Kang Hongyuan was telling lies, he remained calm. The first impression was that this was the real words.
Zhao Li frowned. Kang Hongyuan's words obviously had a big problem: "Where is the truth?"
"I dare not say it's a mess, but to be honest, the development of some places is very unreasonable and the resource allocation is very wasteful. If this continues, it will be a gap with the Federation in a few years." Kang Hongyuan shook his head, as if he was watching his city's development unreasonable. It was a pity: "They don't have a particularly good development planner."
"That's it!" Zhao Li couldn't help frowning. If Chen Yong kept his word, then those four and a half planets should have been Zhao Li's territory. His own territory was not developed so well, which did not satisfy him.
"Contact Chen Yong to see if you can give them some ideas." Zhao Li thought for a while: "Lao Kang, you are good at making a detailed development plan for each planet and let him implement it. I believe he will not refuse."
"Why?" Kang Hongyuan looked at Zhao Li and suddenly asked: "Can you guarantee that Chen Yong will be so trustworthy? If we take action to help them develop, what will happen if we can't control one day?"
"If it is uncontrollable, then he is a powerful enemy." Zhao Li smiled: "Lao Kang, you won't know how my current identities and status came from, right? Sometimes, war can make people achieve certain goals. Of course, your concerns make sense. You can do it cleanly and don't let him have your handle."
"Yes, Zhao Li, you have considered it very comprehensively now." Kang Hongyuan was very happy with Zhao Li's performance and praised him without hesitation: "I can rest assured when I am not here." The following sentence made Zhao Li a little speechless, as if Kang Hongyuan was his own parents, so caring.
"Last point." When Kang Hongyuan was about to leave, he suddenly turned around and said: "Zhao Li, if you have absolute strength, then the so-called balance and imbalance is just a joke, and you don't have to consider it at all."
Watching Kang Hongyuan leave, Zhao Li was still chewing on the last sentence he left. This sentence touched Zhao Li deeply, but if you think about it carefully, it makes sense, but it is not completely correct, which makes Zhao Li a little difficult to understand.
Forget it, it’s not something I should have understood during this period, and even if I think about it, I may not understand it. Zhao Li quickly gave up this headache-inducing job and leaned against the chair behind him.
"Christine, are there anything you need to pay attention to here these days?" The warm touch from the forehead made Zhao Li know that it was Christine giving herself a massage. Her medical qi has a very strong effect in this regard, and Zhao Li quickly felt very comfortable.
"The edge planet is very peaceful and there is nothing to pay attention to." Christine is a competent female secretary. All the work is arranged in an orderly manner. Zhao Li even doubts whether he would be able to complete those heavy copywriting tasks without Christine by his side.
"I made an appointment with the principal and go to the training together." Zhao Li took Christine's little hand and felt the gentleness and delicateness coming from his hand: "But I have to work hard again, and I may still be a deserter."
Christine made almost no comment on Zhao Li's choice now, but just agreed gently. She didn't ask why Zhao Li ran away in such a rare training opportunity.
Zhao Li was thinking about another thing. If he only knew some basic knowledge, then it would be enough now. It would be better to let A Die and Christine learn it carefully. Zhao Li himself had already made up his mind that during this training period, he would definitely pester the principal and learn something good from him.
This is a good plan for Zhao Li, but who knows what happened then can only take one step at that time. Zhao Li closed his eyes and enjoyed Christine's massage. Suddenly he felt quite satisfied. At a young age, he was already a senior military official and had a bunch of masters around him. The key is that these are the results of Zhao Li's own struggle. Even if he is picky, he can't find any flaws from Zhao Li, right? Life is maintained like this, and it is also a good ending.
However, Zhao Li immediately remembered Professor Hans, the Elf Planet, and the other cruel master behind the scenes who had never fallen into the French Open. Thinking of this, Zhao Li couldn't help but sigh. It was still a long time to really live a peaceful life.
Suddenly, Zhao Li was a little envious of the old warden. It seemed that he was living a peaceful life every day in a not-so-important position. The most important thing was that even if his position was not high, he still had some loyal subordinates who were in a high position and provided help at all times. Perhaps, this was the most comfortable thing, right?
"By the way, there is someone who wants to see you, I don't know if you are interested." Christine said in a questing tone.
"Someone wants to see me? Who?" Zhao Li was also a little surprised. On the edge planet, who would want to see him so much? He also had to pass Christine, and he didn't know what it was.
"It was your new recruit comrade-in-arms who challenged you last time, our junior brother, Li Xiuyuan." Christine immediately revealed the identity of the person.
"Is it him?" Zhao Li was also a little surprised. What did Li Xiuyuan come to do for him?
