Chapter 815
Chapter Twenty-Eight
Zuo Youxian suddenly realized, looked at Fu Gongyou and said with a smile: "No wonder, no wonder, everything is within Fu Shuai's calculations, everything can be explained clearly now!"

Fu Gongyou picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and said with a slight smile, "I can explain why you sent Kan Leng to lead five hundred healthy soldiers to Chang'an secretly!"

Speaking of this, Zuo Youxian deeply admired Fu Gongyou's strategy.Under the banner of rescuing Du Fuwei, Fu Gongyou ordered Du Fuwei's adopted sons to go to Chang'an to rescue Du Fuwei and return to Jianghuai.In this situation, Kan Leng and Wang Xiongsheng knew clearly that Fu Gongyou had no good intentions and knew that this was a pit of fire, but none of them had any choice but to go to Chang'an.

Because, if you don't go, there will be more details inside.As an adopted son, it is unfilial to see his adopted son detained in Chang'an and remain indifferent.As the soul and leader of the Jianghuai Army, as a general of the Jianghuai Army, if you don't rescue the commander, you are not loyal.As a person who has been favored by Du Fuwei, it is unrighteous not to sacrifice his life to save him.It is inhumane to sit and watch Du Fuwei suffer in Chang'an.

In this era, there is no one who can bear the accusations of disloyalty, filial piety, benevolence, and injustice, especially the Jianghuai Army, which is obviously of a quack nature and green forest nature.If anyone is put on such a big hat, let alone be an official, even a man will not be able to hold his head up.

However, although Kan Leng was fierce and invincible, he was still a man of flesh and blood. He led a mere 500 people to Chang'an, and wanted to rescue Du Fuwei, which was simply a dream.What's more, Fu Gongyou will not let Kan Leng successfully rescue Du Fuwei, he will use Li Yuan's hand to get rid of Kan Leng and other Du Fuwei's adopted sons.

This result is beneficial to Fu Gongyou but not harmful. Without these adopted sons of Du Fuwei, Fu Gongyou can better control the Jianghuai tens of thousands of troops, and better realize his intentions.

Fu Gongyou looked at Zuo Youxian and said: "Our Jianghuai Army rose up to kill corrupt officials, eliminate bullies, and fought blood and blood with the Sui Army. They all changed their faces. The tens of thousands of brothers in our Jianghuai army could have been independent decisions. Li Zitong is a piece of shit, and he could have become the emperor of Wu. Why can’t our Jianghuai army build a country? Why can’t our brothers become princes? No matter how bad it is, you can still rule the river with the Northern Dynasty like the Chen Dynasty, why did you surrender to Li Tang? Of these tens of thousands of brothers, which one is a coward?"

Zuo Youxian was also speechless to Fu Gongyou's words.After all, if Du Fuwei proclaims himself emperor, Fu Gongyou will also be a one-word prince at the first time, and then he will also be a hereditary prince who will retire with the country.

Zuo Youxian smiled wryly and said: "Commander, I understand what you said, and I support your decision, the key is Wang Xiongdan, now he is the deputy envoy of the Southeast Economic Strategy, with tens of thousands of Jianghuai troops in name. Brother, everything is controlled by him..."

Fu Gongyou said coldly: "The friendship has been there for so many years, give Wang Xiongdan a chance, would you like to be a brother or an enemy!"

Zuo Youxian looked at Fu Gongyou suspiciously and said, "Fu Shuai means..."

"Go and ask him, what's on his mind!" Fu Gongyou murmured, "If it's true that you're not on the same road, then you have to part ways!"

……

In the Wude Hall of Chang'an Taiji Palace, Li Yuanduan sat on the altar with a displeased face, and the ministers of civil and military affairs were divided into two compartments.Pei Ji looked at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose, like an old monk Ruding.

Li Jiancheng was worried.

At this moment, Li Yuan got up suddenly and walked to Du Fuwei, who was the next general in the class.

Du Fuwei lowered his head, not daring to look at Li Yuan.

Li Yuan said with a smile: "Du Qing's family, please explain why Fugong Er wanted to beat my envoys with old fists? I have never heard of this kind of madness since the establishment of the Tang Dynasty. The emperor's order was trampled by the courtiers. Why, the Jianghuai army is not my Tang army?"

Du Fuwei was sweating coldly when he heard these words, and said bravely: "Chen... I just found out about it."

Li Yuan sighed and said: "I also know very well that Jiang Huai is beyond your reach, and now that Changsun Wuji is sick in bed, you go and apologize to my envoy.

Du Fuwei was taken aback, and then he replied with difficulty in a hoarse voice: "I obey the imperial edict."

All the officials dispersed, Du Fuwei looked deeply at Li Shimin.Li Shimin coughed and said pretendingly: "Father, my son thinks... Changsun Wuji's only minor injury is nothing to worry about..."

Before Li Shimin finished speaking, Li Yuan's face turned cold, he swung his right hand hard, turned to look at Li Shimin and said, "Bastard, my envoy, my face, is it so worthless?"

Li Jiancheng stepped forward and said, "Father, Erlang didn't mean that!"

Li Yuan stared at Li Shimin and said, "What do you mean!"

Li Shimin opened his mouth, but before he could say another word, he found that Du Fuwei kept winking at him.

Li Shimin sighed and did not speak again.

Li Yuan looked thoughtfully at Du Fuwei, who bowed his head, and walked towards the inner palace with his sleeves thrown.

Li Jiancheng hurried to catch up and said, "Father..."

"Go back and talk about it!"

Li Yuan still gave Li Jiancheng a back view.

Li Shimin was about to catch up, when he turned around and found Du Fuwei holding Li Shimin's arm tightly.

Li Shimin turned his head and said: "Brother, why don't you let me talk to His Majesty?"

Du Fuwei smiled bitterly and said: "Brother, if you go to make trouble, maybe I don't have to apologize to my eldest grandson Wuji, but the brothers in the Jianghuai Army will have a hard time in the future. For the sake of the brothers, forget it. Isn't it just a compensation?" Is it a crime..."

Li Shimin shouted angrily: "Brother!"

Du Fuwei smiled sadly, patted Li Shimin's shoulder heavily and said: "A man can bend and stretch, and Du Fuwei's legs can still be bent down, not to mention that Changsun Wuji is your uncle Lang, and he is also my brother-in-law." Du Fuwei's brother, Fu Gongyou is not only slapping the court in the face, why is it not slapping the brother's face?"

The moment Li Shimin turned his head, a strong flame shot out from Du Fuwei's eyes.

……

Anxi Duhu Mansion, the county seat of Huyang County.In the snow and ice season, it was originally inaccessible.But since the emergence of briquette stoves, heavy wagons, and cotton-padded clothes and quilts, the cold winter has not been able to stop people's desire to travel.

In a sled that is airtight on all sides, the sled with the wheels removed from the carriage can actually carry a greater load than a carriage. If a carriage can carry [-] catties, the sled can pull [-] catties. Heavy cargo, galloping on snow.

Merchants can sit in an airtight sleigh cart surrounded by copper-skinned hot pots, eating boiled mutton, while traveling leisurely.

For merchants, rest is the biggest original sin. They wish they could ship and sell goods every day.Bitter and tiring, for them, it's not a problem at all.

At this time, Zhao Boying, the county magistrate of Huyang County, was happily watching a horse-drawn sleigh enter the gate tower from the gate tower.These goods were all shipped from the Sasanian Empire behind Congling, including Persian wool felt, fine spices, various medicinal materials, saltwater fish in the Caspian Sea, seaweed, kelp, jewelry, gold, etc. Silver is readily available.

At this time, Zhao Boying was thinking about whether he should expand the warehouse to accommodate more shops to rest and load and unload goods.

Zhao Boying looked at his son Zhao Hao and said, "Haoxin, do you think we should expand the warehouse? There are more and more companies coming and going, and the warehouse is so small that it can't accommodate it!"

Zhao Haoxin felt the same way and said: "It really should be expanded. There is no room in the city. It is better to expand the warehouse outside the city. In this way, no matter how many goods there are, they can be loaded!"

Zhao Boying stroked his beard and said, "That's right, if there are more warehouses, we can receive more rent. If the rent is more, our income will also increase...Should we call all houses to discuss the transformation of warehouses?"

"No need? This is a matter of Huyang City, we can solve it ourselves..." Before Zhao Haoxin finished speaking, Zhao Boying said: "Huyang County does not belong to our family, it is the city of Datang, our Zhao family Just a herdsman official, not a hereditary official!"

As they said that, Zhao Haoxin and Zhao Boying began to talk and gesture about the matter of transforming the warehouse to increase their income. At this moment, a villager galloped down the city of Populus euphratica on a fast horse.

"Report to the county magistrate! General Chen is here!"

Hearing this, Zhao Boying didn't care about remodeling the warehouse and increasing tax revenue, and hurriedly said: "Prepare the horses!"

Ever since Chen Ying received the appointment of the eldest grandson Wuji and Li Shimin, the king of Qin, and went to Jianghuai, he knew that he wanted bad food.

The timing is not right now. In history, Fu Gongyou officially proclaimed himself emperor on August 22th, the sixth year of Wude. The Tang Dynasty decreed that Li Xiaogong and Li Jing officially put down the rebellion on August [-], but the Tang army formally fought against Fu Gongyou's rebels. It was in mid-November, but the Jianghuai army rebellion was officially put down on April [-], the seventh year of Takede.Almost eight months before and after.

On August 22, Li Xiaogong's troops were not deployed until mid-November.However, it was already the first ten days of November at this time, and it should be the beginning of December when the news reached Chang'an. The imperial court mobilized troops just at the end of the year.

Once the mobilization speed is slow, the army deployment speed is slow, and Fu Gongyou is given enough time to stabilize the place, I am afraid that the rebellion will be more protracted and destructive.

In this situation, Chen Ying couldn't sit still anymore. Like the previous business travelers, he was not afraid of the severe cold, using a sled to wrap up all the carriages and horses, and moved forward slowly.

After half a month, Chen Ying arrived in Huyang County from Shule.It is more than 800 miles away from Shule.Almost at a speed of more than 100 miles per day, heading towards Chang'an!

Chen Ying was very worried that Li Xiaogong would lose the chain at a critical moment. If this is the case, then the fun will be great!

For any rebellion, the combat effectiveness is the weakest at the beginning of the rebellion. At that time, just a few thousand light cavalry can defeat dozens of times the rebel army.Once the Jianghuai Army wants to seize power, it must eliminate the powerful generals under Du Fuwei's command. Without these experienced generals, it will take at least a certain period of time for Fu Gongyou to restore the combat effectiveness of the Jianghuai Army.

If the imperial court was slow to respond and Fu Gongyou survived the most difficult time, then the integrated Jianghuai Army may soon sweep the entire Jiangnan.

Chen Ying is not afraid of the cold just to change this historical tragedy!
