Aspiring to the Ten Kingdoms

Chapter 345

The accident of the Dingnan Army also happened in Jiangnan.

After Li Hongji received Li Jing's tacit consent, he lived in the navy camp.

Drill the navy day and night, wait for news from the north, and send troops anytime and anywhere.

It's just that the east and the south of the river are too far apart.

Li Hongji didn't know the news about the Northern Han Dynasty's destruction of the country. The news he got was that Luo Youdu subdued Li Yun and divided his troops to attack the Northern Han Dynasty. There was a difference of more than ten days.

It's not that Nantang's intelligence network is too bad, but that the speed of news dissemination is too slow.

If it was Luo Youdu's urgent order to send the message on a fast horse, day and night, five or six hundred miles a day would not be a problem.

Long-distance communication between the north and the south, that is, three to five days.

What is paid is nothing more than a lot of human, material and financial resources.

But the intelligence agents of the Southern Tang Dynasty could not do this in the Central Plains. What is the difference between running so fast and courting death?
They are at most faster than normal people and need to send messages step by step.

Therefore, there is a news error of half a month.

"My great king talked about Chai Shouli of Luoyang, the lord of Bashu, Li Chongjin, and Zhang Yongde. This is a rare opportunity. The prince must not miss this opportunity."

The Khitan envoy dressed as a businessman tried hard to persuade Li Hongji to respond to Khitan's actions early.

In fact, the Khitan envoy himself didn't know the details, he just ran the train with his mouth full, trying to trick Li Hongji into doing it as soon as possible. After all, the more chaos in the Central Plains, the more benefits they will gain.

In order to seize this opportunity, Yelu Yazhi almost went all out.

All the methods he could think of were used, even Chai Shouli, who was easily overlooked by others, was used.

He even didn't hesitate to use some secrets left by Yelu Deguang when he was forced to leave the Central Plains in the past, and most of them were businessmen.

Li Hongji would not listen to the one-sided words of the Khitan envoy, and had his own thinking for action. He glanced at the envoy beside him and analyzed the situation by himself.

The Khitan made a lot of noise this time, and they used all their tricks, Li Hongji saw it all, knowing that the land of Yan had been re-occupied by the Central Plains, stepping on the Khitan's painful feet, so he did not hesitate to deal with the Central Plains.

Li Hongji also had the same meaning. Huainan was captured by the Central Plains, and their Tang Kingdom seemed to have their throats stuck.

Originally, the Huai salt in the Southern Tang Dynasty was flooded, and the salt in the south of the Yangtze River could not be sold in many places, so it was forcibly sold to the common people.

Now Feng Shui turns, the four seasons are distinct in Jiangnan, the land is fertile, and the wealth is abnormal.The only thing that does not produce table salt...

It is useless to have too much salt, but it is indispensable.

Therefore, within a month after Li Jingchen surrendered to Guo Rong, he cried and begged Guo Rong to transfer the southern part of the Hailing Salt Prison to Jiangnan, otherwise there would be no salt to eat in Jiangnan.

What kind of person is Guo Rong, how could he hand over the means to check and balance Jiangnan?With a big wave of his hand, he promised to send 30 dendrobium to Nantang every year for his needs, but it is absolutely impossible for Hailing Salt Supervisor.

The Central Plains transports 30 Dendrobium salt every year, and Jiangnan really does not worry about salt.

However, this kind of gift will be broken as soon as it is said.

Once the salt in the Central Plains is cut off, there will be no salt in the south of the Yangtze River the next year.

Compared with Li Jing's greed for pleasure.

Li Hongji has a heart that is unwilling to be content with the status quo, and longs to become an outstanding emperor. He doesn't like the title of Jiangnan Lord at all.

Restoring the monarchy, regaining his homeland, and taking control of the Central Plains is what he should do.

The south of the Yangtze River is trapped by salt every day, and can't help itself every day.

Li Hongji's purpose this time is to take back Jiangnan's control of Hailing Salt Supervisor first, and solve the salt problem for Jiangnan.

But no matter what the Khitan envoy said, Li Hongji was not moved.

It is true that Jiangnan has the interests of Jiangnan, but it cannot become a pawn of the Khitan people.

This is also the reason why Luo Youdu is sure that the encirclement network will not be established.

Everything is exactly as Khitan expected, they all know that Luo Youdu has just ascended the throne and his foundation is unstable, and they all know that the best time to deal with him is now.

They even understood that they were unanimously targeting the Central Plains, and the Central Plains had a great chance of being hit hard, and thus collapsed.

If you miss this village, there will be no store.

But it is impossible for all the countries and ministries to be able to unify the external affairs regardless of gains and losses.

Everyone has their own interests and needs, and they all have their own little thoughts.

What awaits them is the four words of missed opportunity.

When news of the fall of the Northern Han Dynasty spread to the south of the Yangtze River, Li Jing was so frightened that he almost fainted.

In 27 days, Beihan is gone?
What terrifying power is this?

That's Jinyang City!
When Liang and Jin were fighting for hegemony, Zhu Wen beat Li Keyong violently, and the Six Route Army besieged Jinyang City aggressively, but Jinyang could not do anything.

The Northern Han Dynasty, which owns the ancient city of Jinyang, didn't even survive for 27 days?

Jinyang is like this, let alone Jinling City?

Thinking of Li Hongji's instigation, Li Jing issued an edict one after another to call Li Hongji from the Jiangnan camp to him, and reprimanded him: "Zhuzi almost ruined my Jiangnan foundation, so you can't learn from Jia, be gentle and courteous. You know how to mess around. You are not the lord of Jiangnan, and you have almost left me without a place to be buried in Jiangnan. If you pass on the lord to you, my Jiangnan foundation will be completely destroyed by you?"

The more Li Jing thought about it, the more angry he became, and the more he thought about it, the more frightening he became. As soon as his mind became hot, he picked up the axe and hit Li Hongji.

While beating, he said: "You despise authority so much, Gu shouldn't make you a prince."

Li Hongji was impatient, and he was furious when he was beaten. Hearing this, he grabbed the pole ax and wanted to fight back, but seeing that it was his father, he threw the pole ax on the ground angrily, and shouted: "You never liked it!" Pass me, whoever wants to be the prince will be the one."

He ran out of the palace angrily, found a restaurant to get drunk, the more he drank, the more angry he became, and the more he thought about it, the more unpleasant he became. He thought of Li Jing's compliment to Li Congjia, rushed to Li Congjia's house, and killed this innocent man. The younger brother was beaten up.

This can't beat his own father, can't he beat his younger brother?

The most comfortable one belonged to Bashu Mengchang, the Khitan envoy came to act as a lobbyist, and his words were hype.

Before Meng Chang finished listening, he had someone tie him up and send him to Bianjing.

Khitan is not adjacent to Bashu, and Meng Chang is not afraid of the giant monster at all, but in the Central Plains, it is a knife across the neck, whoever wants to provoke others, anyway, I will not do it.

Hearing that the Northern Han Dynasty was destroyed in 27 days, Meng Chang's plump body shook with fright, and soon he laughed gloatingly.

I also specially wrote a poem for my vision...

**********
Luzhou imperial camp.

On the way back to his teacher, Luo Youdu unexpectedly received a letter from Zhang Yongde.

Regarding the situation of Zhang Yongde and Li Chongjin in Jiangling, Sun Guangxian told him early.

After Zhang Yongde arrived in Jiangling under the command of the south, for some unknown reason, he brought a big black pig to block Li Chongjin's gate and visited him.

Just fluttered to nothing.

After Li Chongjin got Zhang Yongde's promotion to Jingnan Capital, he knew that the situation was not good, so he left home and hid first.

How could Zhang Yongde be willing to let Li Chongjin escape?

The two elders played hide-and-seek in Jiangling, which made everyone in Jiangling look sideways.

In the end, Zhang Yongde caught Li Chongjin who was fishing in Baling Mountain, and ended the ten-day hide-and-seek journey.

Zhang Yongde sneered at Li Chongjin.

Li Chongjin ignored him.

During these days in Jiangling, his xinxing has been greatly improved.

Zhang Yongde was making fun of himself, seeing Li Chongjin fishing, he also found a fishing rod and started fishing opposite him.

There are skills in this fishing, but for a rookie or a novice, it depends on luck.

Zhang Yongde didn't know whether it was a good seat or good luck that all kinds of big fish took the bait.

On the other hand, Li Chongjin occasionally bit the bait, and even got off the bait many times to escape.

Zhang Yongde was overjoyed.

Li Chongjin rarely cares about it, and asks Zhang Yongde to do it again tomorrow.

The two former No. [-] and No. [-] members of the military comfortably appeared at various fishing spots in Jiangling to compete in fishing.

Those who win are like winning a battle, and those who lose are unwilling to compete again.

When Li Chongjin caught a fat fish, he attacked personally, mocking Zhang Yongde as a fat pig with a big waist.

Zhang Yongde caught an ugly fish, so he mocked Li Chongjin, who was born face first like a fish.

In one month, except for the first ten days of peek-a-boo, almost everyone gathered together to fish.

In addition to being funny, Luo Youdu also let go of the big stone in his heart.

Li Chongjin and Zhang Yongde are not rebelling now, and they will not rebel again in the future.

Opening Zhang Yongde's letter, Luo Youdu frowned slightly.

There is another reason why he decided to launch a blitzkrieg against Beihan, to see who made some small moves secretly.

Luo Youdu never expected that it was Chai Shouli who overreacted.

Zhang Yongde is the son-in-law of Guo Wei and Queen Chai, and Queen Chai is the younger sister of Chai Shouli.

Therefore, Chai Shouli also quietly contacted Zhang Yongde, hoping to get his help.

Zhang Yongde also gave a list.

Luo Youdu laughed mockingly, they were all marginalized Jiedu envoys.

Like Li Yun, they all belong to the older generation's thinking and want to regain the power of Jiedushi.

But they don't have Li Yun's ability, they can guard important places, and they have the power to resist.

So he found someone who Luo Youdu couldn't kill, and dragged Zhang Yongde into the water by the way.

Only when Zhang Yongde comes forward, can they have hope...

Luo Youdu burned Zhang Yongde's letter, walked out of the tent with a smile, and gave the order: "Turn to Fenglingdu, go to Luoyang City first."

Originally, they planned to leave Weizhou and enter Bianshui directly.

Turning to Fenglingdu, it takes an extra day to travel.

Zhe Saihua rode his horse to come behind Luo Youdu and said, "Your Majesty is going to Luoyang too?"

Zhe Yuxun and Zhe Saihua are going to attend the enthronement ceremony as representatives of the Fugu Zhejia, so they go with the army together.

Luo Youdu heard the overtones and said: "Are you going to Luoyang too?"

Zhe Saihua nodded and said: "I went to visit Dr. You, thanks to his careful care when I was in Luoyang."

Luo Youdu recalled the past, and said with a smile: "It should be, people value kindness." Looking at Meijiao Niang behind him, he became interested and asked: "By the way, I have a question for you! If some things are old and rotten, what should I do?" ?”

Zhe Saihua said directly: "If it rots, throw it away. What do you keep it for?"

Luo Youdu nodded pointedly and said: "Well said, what should be thrown away, should be thrown away!"

　Something happened at home, the update is late, sorry!
