Aspiring to the Ten Kingdoms

Chapter 135 Southern Tang Generals
"Zhu Yuan!"

"Yes, it's Zhu Yuan."

Li Jing patted his thigh and said: "He came to the Central Plains, and I was worried that he would take the opportunity to return to the north, so I ignored him. But once Situ said so, I will try boldly."

This is the power of the emperor, who is reused and who is used is a matter of one sentence.

Seeing that the topic changed, Zhou Zong secretly rejoiced in his heart, but his heart was at a loss.I am old, and only have the second daughter born to my concubine under my knees.If I am good enough, once I go, the two girls lose their backing, what should I do?

Thinking of this, Zhou Zong also secretly regretted that he should not be too greedy and sell too much for the price.

almost at the same time.

Qi Wang Li Jingda was drinking at home, and this battle was really embarrassing.

Let alone an outsider, even he himself is embarrassed to meet people.

Holding high the flag of righteousness to recover the lost land, he had just crossed the river, and not long after he stood on the territory of Huainan, he was rushed back to Jiangdong.

Those who knew knew that they were going to fight in Huainan to regain lost ground, but those who didn't know thought they went to Jiangbei to relieve themselves.

"Damn Chen Jue!"

Li Jingda's gums are itching with anger now. If Chen Jue had listened to him at that time and went directly to Yangzhou for repairs, there would be no defeat in Guabu Mountain.Back in Jinling, Chen Jue put the blame on him in a evasive manner.

He was both annoyed and chilled: "Brother Huang really trusts outsiders, and doesn't trust his own brother?"

Li Jingda took a sip of wine, and couldn't help but shed tears.

Li Jingda's military, political and military strategy is not outstanding, but he is filial and friendly.

Once he and Li Jing were boating in the back garden of the palace.

Li Jing's boat capsized accidentally, and he fell into the pool.

Li Jingda doesn't know how to swim, but he jumped into the water without saying a word, and carried Li Jing out of the pool.

Li Jing couldn't trust such a younger brother.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Sun came to ask for an audience."

Li Jingda wiped away his tears, straightened his clothes, and strode out the door.

"Sun Xiang, come in quickly!"

Li Jingda is upright and upright, he is very contemptuous of Feng Yanji, Feng Yanlu, Wei Cen, Chen Jue and other high-ranking temple officials favored by Li Jing, but he respects this grandson, Sun Sheng, from the bottom of his heart, and even stepped forward to support him personally.

Sun Sheng was invited into the hall to take a seat.

Sun Sheng said: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, it is said that Chen Jue, the supervising officer, was so frightened that he lost control."

Sun Sheng was a Jinshi in the Later Liang Dynasty, and he was very talented. Although he was extravagant, he was one of the few clean figures in the temple.

It's just that he has a stuttering problem, but as long as you sit down and let him speak smoothly, he can talk endlessly and vividly.

Li Jingda was furious, and shouted: "Why did Prime Minister Sun tease me?"

Sun Sheng laughed and said: "No, no, it's not that the old minister laughed at the king, but to offer advice to the king. The defeat of Guabu Mountain was the fault of Chen Jue, not the king. Chen Jue was frightened by Zhao Kuangyin, and it was the opportunity for the king to go north again. As long as the king always puts Chen Jue first and gives orders to let him go first, he will be frightened and dare not make decisions again. So the king can let nature take its course and let him follow the army at the rear and not participate in decision-making. Without Chen Jue, the army will be in trouble. Your Majesty is in control with one hand, and he can command and destroy the enemy as much as he wants."

Li Jingda's eyes gradually brightened.

Jinling Chafu.

Zhu Yuan was drinking alone in the mansion, hating himself for being born at the wrong time.

He is from Shenqiu, Yingzhou. He looks like a good-looking talent, with a personable demeanor. Because of his handsome looks, he was favored by Zha Wenhui, the deputy privy envoy of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and became his son-in-law.

Zhu Yuan was full of enthusiasm, and his mind was full of meritorious deeds, thinking that with an old father-in-law who was a deputy envoy of the Privy Council, his official career would be smooth sailing.

As a result, Zha Wenhui saw Zhu Yuan's true nature.

Zhu Yuan is keen on making contributions, and he can sacrifice everything for making contributions.

Once a person like him goes to the battlefield, he will be a lunatic who only cares about merit but not life.

Zha Wenhui didn't want his daughter to be a widow, so he kept pressing Zhu Yuan to prevent him from making contributions, and kept arranging civilian jobs for him.

Zhu Yuan wrote letters to Li Jing every month, applying to lead troops to expand the territory of the Southern Tang Dynasty. This month he wrote about attacking Huxiang, next month he wrote about attacking Minyue, and next month it was Qiantang...

In short, as long as he is allowed to lead troops to fight, it doesn't matter who he fights.

But on the one hand, his father-in-law was suppressing him, and on the other hand, Li Jing didn't trust him, fearing that he would run away with his troops, so he could not be reused.

until today!

Cha Wenhui died of illness last year.

The invasion of the Great Zhou urgently needs generals who are good at fighting and daring to fight.

Disappointed again and again, Zhu Yuan didn't have any hope at all, he didn't expect to be appointed as the superintendent of Huainan Northwest camp support this time.

Zhu Yuan burst into tears instantly.

Miss Zha recalled her father's words, and said from the side: "Mr. Lang, Zhou Bing is fierce, why take this risk?"

Zhu Yuan raised his head and laughed loudly: "A man is born in the world and does not seek to make meritorious deeds. How is he different from pigs and sheep?"

His handsome face was slightly distorted, and his eyes were full of madness.

Build a state.

Honglu Qing Pan Chengyou was ordered by Li Jing to come here to recruit brave men to join the army.

Jianzhou is the old place of Fujian in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, and it was the place of Baiyue in ancient times.

Poor mountains and bad waters have been the place where elite soldiers have been produced since ancient times.

Pan Chengyou came to Jianzhou to express his intention to the local officials. After some investigation, he found Xu Wenzhen, the former general of Fujian Province, Yongan Jiedu envoy, Chen Decheng, the lieutenant general of Jianzhou, and Zheng Yanhua, a mountain citizen.

Today, under the leadership of Chen Decheng, Pan Chengyou and Zheng Yanhua came to the foot of Wuyi Mountain in Jianyang.

Chen Decheng said: "Pan Hongxi, it should be here. As long as Lin Huzi comes out of the mountain, I dare not say that he will definitely be able to repel the northern bandits, at least it will increase the chance of winning by [-]%."

A flash of excitement flashed in Zheng Yanhua's eyes, and he said, "I've heard of Lin Renzhao and Lin Huzi's name for a long time. It is said that he can tear tigers and leopards apart with his bare hands when he goes up the mountain, and can capture dragons under the sea when he goes into the water. I want to see for myself whether it's so miraculous. "

Chen Decheng said: "He is as famous as my father. I have heard about his deeds from my father. It is true that he tore apart tigers and leopards, but it is an exaggeration to capture a sea dragon. Hold your breath for half a stick of incense, you can swim in the sea, once swam from Changlefu to Matsu Islands in one breath."

Zheng Yanhua's face changed slightly.

Climbing mountains and wading like walking on flat ground is the characteristic of their Jianzhou people.

But tearing tigers and leopards apart and swimming in the sea, that's not the case.

When they came to the small village where Lin Renzhao lived in seclusion, the crowd quickly asked where Lin Renzhao lived.

Lin Renzhao was not at home, two tiger skins, one black bear skin and four leopard skins were drying in the courtyard.

The few people waited until dusk before they found the legendary Lin Huzi.

Lin Renzhao walked into the yard with a three-headed hunting fork in one hand and two jackals by their front legs in the other. He was naked, with his upper body exposed and a roaring tiger tattooed on his chest. He looked majestic at the uninvited guests in the yard , threw the jackal in his hand on the ground, and said: "Can I be a general? If I can, I will go with you. If you don't want to be a general, you might as well kill tigers and leopards in the mountains."

Having been idle at home for many years, Lin Renzhao couldn't be idle anymore.

This was too direct, Pan Chengyou couldn't use the rhetoric in his head at once, instead he didn't know what to say, so he paused and said: "Yes!"
