Aspiring to the Ten Kingdoms

Chapter 329
ps: Insert a message that the title of the country in the previous article was "Qian". Today, a book friend reminded that it was very embarrassing to say that Qian Chaoyin and other former courts were very embarrassing, so it was specially changed to "Yu".

Zhang's house in Bianjing.

Luo Youdu left the palace for the first time after he ascended the throne, and the purpose was the concubine's mansion, which gave Zhang Yongde great face.

Seeing that the original plaque of the consort's mansion has been taken down, it has been replaced with a simple Zhang's house.

Zhang Yongde naturally went out of the mansion to greet him in person.

Luo Youdu didn't show the emperor's music, and affectionately called him "son-in-law".

Came to the hall, after a short greeting, Luo Youdu talked about the current situation: "Sejong died of illness, Zhao Kuangyin and Fan Zhi rebelled, Zhou Si was exiled in the northern border, threatened by the barbarians, and it was even a call for humiliation, which caused turmoil in the Central Plains and unrest in all directions. I don't have enough reliable generals in my hands, so I want to invite my son-in-law to come out of the mountain to serve as the deployment of Jingnan Capital, but I don't know what the son-in-law wants?"

Zhang Yongde has been in the temple for many years, Luo Youdu knew his intentions when he came to the door, he thought of his excuse early on, and without thinking about it, he blurted out: "The grass people are now wandering in the clouds and wild cranes..."

ha?
Jingnan is deployed!
Halfway through Zhang Yongde's words, he suddenly reacted, without any hesitation, and said loudly: "Thanks to His Majesty's respect, I am willing to help His Majesty solve your worries and problems, and bear this heavy burden."

His words are full of smiles.

Luo Youdu added a sentence: "This Jingzhou is located in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, in the west of the Jianghan Plain. Insufficient. I feel that this position must belong to the son-in-law."

Zhang Yongde's eyes flashed with splendor, and he said quickly: "I will never disappoint Your Majesty's high expectations."

Randomly chatting with Zhang Yongde about the situation, Luo Youdu found that Zhang Yongde had his own opinions on the current situation.

Zhang Yongde said: "The thieves from all over the world are mostly defeated by their subordinates, so there is nothing to be afraid of. If you want to fight, you must fight the strongest. The weak will look forward and backward because of lack of strength, and will not dare to move because of the power. On the contrary, it is not beneficial to beat the weak and win them. If the opponent is stubbornly resisting, our army will not be able to win for a while, but the power will be weakened."

Luo Youdu praised: "My son-in-law and the hero see the same thing! In this battle, if we want to fight, we can't pick the weak, and go straight to the strongest."

After sending Luo Youdu out, Zhang Yongde walked into the study step by step with a sullen face, closed the door, the corners of his mouth immediately crooked, jumped up like a child, and danced.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhang Yongde strode out of the study and said loudly: "Old Jia, you go to the market and pick a black pig for me, forget it, I will go by myself!"

Luzhou.

Li Yun had just received the envoy from Khitan and quietly sent him out of the government office, he was a little flustered and could not make up his mind.

In fact, Li Yun didn't have much ambition, nor did he want to rebel.

But he's been miserable all these years.

The dignified officials of the frontiers, the local governors, only have military power and financial power, and they have no autonomy in arranging a local official.

What is this called?

Moreover, there was Zhou Guangxun, a supervisor in the army. No matter how Li Yun thought Zhou Guangxun was not pleasing to his eyes, he wanted to kill him several times.

In fact, Guo Rong still respected Li Yun, an old-fashioned Jiedu warlord. The local supervisory army only had the power of supervision and had no real power, so it could not affect Li Yun at all.

Guo Rong's intention was to give Li Yun a warning not to do evil when he was stationed abroad.

Just like this, Li Yun was extremely dissatisfied, and often missed the benevolence of Taizu Guo Wei.

In fact, this benevolence is indulgence. Guo Wei is also a generation of enlightened masters, but what he seeks is stability, so he treats the arrogant soldiers under his command with a conniving attitude.

One side does whatever it wants, and the other side makes laws like a mountain.

An old warlord like Li Yun naturally likes the former.

Li Yun called his son Li Shoujie and his confidant Lu Qiu Zhongqing to discuss the matter together.

Li Yun opened his mouth and said: "Just now the Khitan people sent an envoy!"

Li Shoujie and Luqiu Zhongqing were startled.

Li Shoujie exclaimed: "Father, are you planning to rebel?"

Li Yun said angrily: "It's not that father wants to rebel, it's because Luo Youdu forced father to rebel. Father thought that Emperor Guo died and the government disappeared after death, so he discussed with Luo Youdu to restore the powers that Jiedushi should have. As a result, he died within a few days. When I became the emperor, he knew what I wanted. But he only gave me the title of Zhongshuling, making it clear that he did not intend to restore the power that Jiedushi Yin had. If he continues to be the emperor, he may die .”

Li Shoujie said: "Father commander, no, how can we stop the power of the Central Plains with a few soldiers from a few cities?"

Luqiu Zhongqing also said: "I hope the commander-in-chief thinks twice, what you said is not unreasonable. Now the Central Plains has made a countermeasure, sending Guo Tingwei to guard Zezhou, and Weizhou also has Shi Shouxin to garrison. We have taken the opportunity If you lose, raise your troops to rebel, it's like seeking your own death."

Li Yun said excitedly: "What if I'm not the only one waiting for an army horse?"

Luqiu Zhongqing said: "Including the soldiers from Hedong, it won't work either. For the Khitan, unless they are willing to invade on a large scale. The subordinates think it may not be big. After the rebellion was defeated just now, how can they have the strength to attack on a large scale?"

Li Yun questioned, "What about Bashu and Jiangnan?"

Li Shoujie and Luqiu Zhongqing looked at each other, if this is the case, it is not hopeless.

Li Shoujie knelt down on the ground and said: "Father Commander, we are the people of the Central Plains after all, Khitan foreigners. We entered the Central Plains many years ago, and the evil deeds we committed are vivid. My son knows that Father Commander has been wronged, but once we decide to fight with him The Khitan colluded, regardless of victory or defeat, it will surely be stigmatized forever, just like Shi Jingtang back then."

Li Yun was already a little hesitant, but when Li Shoujie and Luqiu Zhongqing said this, he became even more confused and irritable.

After all, this is about the life of the family. As for the posthumous name, he doesn't care at all about generals like him.

After hesitating until nightfall, Li Yun still had difficulty making a decision. He wanted to sleep, but he didn't want to sleep, and lay on the bed tossing and turning.

suddenly!

Li Yun was awakened by a sudden knock on the door.

Li Yun shouted: "It's called the soul, what are you doing?"

He was already irritable, so he rushed out of the bedroom in his unlined clothes with his bare legs exposed.

Seeing that it was his son Li Shoujie who came outside the house, he looked flustered at this moment, quickly withdrew his fist and cursed: "Why are you panicking, could it be that the Central Plains is attacking?"

Li Shoujie nodded and said, "Shi Shouxin is leading the army just outside Luzhou City, please meet the commander-in-chief."

Li Yun was furious, "Damn it, I haven't rebelled! This bastard still wants to turn the world upside down? When I led the troops to fight, this little brat was still playing with urine and mud. I forgot that I led him to fight ? His title of Shi Gandang was given to him by Lao Tzu."

Li Yun came to the city tower angrily. Hundreds of torches outside the city reflected the densely packed army.

Shi Shouxin is at the forefront of the army.

Seeing this, Li Yun yelled: "Well, you bold Shi, what do you want to do?"

Shi Shouxin didn't pay attention, but shouted: "Shuai Li, Your Majesty is here, open the city quickly to welcome you."

When Li Yun first heard this, his expression changed drastically.

There was an uproar of discussion from all directions.

In the dark of night, the soldiers behind Shi Shouxin gave way to a passage.

Luo Youdu wore imperial bright armor and a yellow cloak, and rode a tall and handsome white horse to the front of the army step by step.

Looking at Li Yun on the tower, Luo Youdu said loudly: "Could it be that Marshal Li asked me to keep my head up and talk to you?"

Li Yun was at a loss and didn't know what to do.

Luo Youdu unexpectedly came to the front line without knowing it?
Kill the king?

Li Yun was not mentally prepared at all.

Li Shoujie pulled his father, seeing that he didn't respond at all, he didn't care so much, and shouted directly: "Open the city gate, and welcome Your Majesty Wansheng!"

Hearing Li Shoujie's shout, the surrounding soldiers shouted: "Your Majesty is victorious!"

Imperial power, at this special time, still has a certain deterrent power.

Li Yun had no choice now, so he walked down the city gate quickly, and when the city gate opened, Li Yun, Li Shoujie, and Luqiu Zhongqing came out of Luzhou to welcome him.

"Your Majesty Li Jun led Li Shoujie and Luqiu Zhongqing to meet His Majesty."

Luo Youdu got off his horse and helped Li Yun up, and said, "I've heard for a long time that the Marshal is a famous general in the world. When I saw him today, he is indeed very powerful."

The strongest!
Which country is the strongest in this era?
There is no doubt that it is Khitan.

To fight against Khitan, you must first pass the two passes of Li Yun and the Northern Han Dynasty.

The Northern Han Dynasty is easy to say, just hammer to death, after all, he is the son emperor of Khitan.

But Li Yun and Luo Youdu didn't want to sit and watch him rebel like he did against the Song Dynasty in history.

Regardless of the reason, shortly after the Son of Heaven came to the throne, the courtiers rebelled, which was a challenge to the authority of the new emperor.

Even if it is suppressed, it is the same.

Therefore, Luo Youdu dispatched troops to Zezhou and Weizhou, ostensibly to defend Li Yun, and warned Li Yun, but the actual purpose was to be able to quickly approach the city.

As for Luo Youdu, he left Bianjing directly by boat, rushed to Weizhou along the Yellow River, and went north to Luzhou with Shi Shouxin.

In history, Li Yun looked down on Zhao Kuangyin. When receiving the Song Dynasty envoy, he specially took out Guo Wei's portrait, weeping and humiliating the Song Dynasty envoy.

Even so, it took him months to make up his mind.

Even more so now.

After all, this rebellion cannot be decided with a quick brain.

Luo Youdu's purpose was to personally force him to surrender before he made a decision.

If he doesn't surrender, he will fight early and late.

Rather than waiting until Li Yun had discussed with the Northern Han, Khitan, Dingnan Army and other people to fight back passively, it would be better to strike first.

Li Yun looked at the young new emperor of the Central Plains in front of him, admired him and bowed again: "Your Majesty is wise and mighty, the sinner Li Yun begs His Majesty for his crimes."

Luo Youdu said generously: "What is the crime of the commander? You have guarded the frontier for many years, and your power has shocked the east of the river. A few days ago, you even took Liaozhou. You are a rare general in our dynasty. I want to fulfill Sejong's wish and destroy the east of the river. The Han Dynasty. The commander has fought against the Liu family in Hedong for many years, and he has a deep understanding of them. Gather your troops and horses, and go to battle with me!"

Li Yun said loudly: "I would like to listen to His Majesty's arrangement!"

As he spoke, Li Shoujie and Luqiu Zhongqing were sent directly to the city to transfer troops.

He himself stood motionless in front of Luo Youdu, using his body as a hostage.

Luo Youdu nodded slightly in satisfaction.

This kind of five-generation general is the most sensible, no matter how angry and indignant he was before, he wanted to fight for his own interests.

Once the overall situation is stable, he will no longer toss about indiscriminately, and will admit counsel willingly.
