Late Tang

(Sorry, the update of this chapter is late. I am very sorry to see the reminder ticket from Dusty Baili, but this chapter has been coded for a long time. I would also like to thank Dusty Baili for the reward and reminder ticket, thank you too Toniwoo's evaluation vote.)

Daxie village, the mansion of soldiers and horses.

"People are gone?"

It was still cold after the New Year's Eve, but Feng Zhang was eating frozen pears leisurely in a long shirt with straight collar, double breasted and long sleeves.The crispy pears just dug out from the snow made a crackling sound when bitten.

The servant sealed Lin's head and nodded: "I have already taken the things and went directly to Salmon Island."

Feng Zhang just finished eating one pear, and threw the pear pit into the empty bucket ten steps away with great accuracy.He clapped his hands, wiped his lips, pondered for a while, and asked again: "How much did he get?"

"It was all according to the general's order. Only two or three hundred broken knives and rotten spears were given, and the rest of the bows, crossbows, armor, etc. were not given. In addition, the grain was only given ten stones of Chen Liang, and some oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar were also given. According to the general's order, more farm tools and seeds were given, and twenty cows were pulled out."

"What's Li Jing's reaction?"

"At the beginning, the leader of the army was very disappointed and a little angry. But after seeing that he pulled out a lot of farm tools, seeds and cattle, his expression improved a lot. When he left, he also said that he would let the little one express his gratitude to the general on his behalf, and come back in the future It's a visit." Feng Lin said in a straightforward manner.

Feng Zhang hummed, didn't speak any more, raised his hand and picked up another frozen pear and began to gnaw on it.

"General, the man surnamed Li is just a small town general. He just came to pay a visit to his boss, but he was so arrogant that he beat people openly in front of the general's office. There is a saying that when beating a dog, it depends on the owner. The man surnamed Li beats people." It’s not that I’m waiting for a servant, he’s hitting the face of the general. Why didn’t the general punish him today, but avoid him instead? According to Xiao’s thinking, he should directly bring dozens of brothers to surround him severely If you beat him up, if you don’t kill him, it’s not easy to get him half-dead.”

But Feng Zhang just chuckled: "Then Li Jing's background is not small. One of the two teachers is the current Ziqing Pinlu Jiedu Sima, and that is the highest peak we are waiting for. The other Yu Jian, although he is far away in the pass, As the defense envoy of the capital, but the four brothers of the Yu family are all high-ranking officials, and Yu Cong is even the prime minister of the court. , and even now they are fighting with Song Wen, governor of Dengzhou."

"Last time we detained the Han family's fleet and that batch of goods. I heard from the Qingzhou clan that it was because Li Jing was going through the needles, and finally persuaded the commander-in-chief Song Wei, and then the Cui family just I have to support the Han family. That is nearly a million worth of goods and fleets, we spent so much effort, but in the end we had to spit out all that we swallowed, do you know what it feels like?"

"Since this is the case, then we should kill this man surnamed Li." Feng Lin said viciously, although the millions of money had nothing to do with him, but when he heard that the fat that was in his mouth was gone Still heartbroken.

Feng Zhang snorted coldly, squeezed hard with his right hand, and the frozen pear in his hand was shattered.

"There is a way to heaven, he will not go, and there is no way to hell, he will break in. Li Jing relied on several backers to support him, but he didn't know the heights of the sky and the earth, and he was arrogant everywhere. What the pirates did was murdered by Cui Yunqing and Li Rui, and Li Jing was the one who did it. It’s just been so long, some clues from the beginning have long since disappeared, and there has been no real evidence. Even if Li Jing didn’t Come on, I'll go find him, but I didn't expect him to have the guts to jump into my territory."

"The little one is a little confused. Since the general wanted him to die, why didn't he do anything today, but pulled out the weapons and seeds for him instead?"

"Why do you steal your hands when you kill someone? There is a kind of killing called borrowing a knife to kill." Feng Zhang sneered a few times: "Giving him some broken knives and spears will show my consistent attitude and will not give him strength. As for giving him more Some farm tools and oxen are just to help us stock up some fields and open up some wasteland when he is still alive, anyway, he will definitely not be able to eat the reclaimed fields and the food grown."

"How do you say that?" Seeing Feng Zhang's mysterious expression, Feng Lin asked in puzzlement.

Although Feng Zhang is a military commander, he is actually a witty, cunning and cunning man.He has been in Daxie Village for nearly ten years, and he has already managed Daxie Village into a small military town. Everyone knows that it is hard to guard the border, and it should be even more difficult to guard on the island.But how many people really know that this Daxie village is guarding the commercial road leading to the Liaodong countries from the Tang Dynasty. aisle.

Sitting on mountains to eat mountains, relying on water to eat water, guarding such a golden passage, how can it be really bitter cold?No one knows how much wealth he has accumulated in private over the years, let alone how much strength he has.The [-] soldiers in Daxie Village are just the tip of the iceberg on the bright side. In fact, there are too many pirates on the Liao Sea who have already accepted his offer.

With the strength in his hands, if he really wanted to kill Li Jing, it would not be a big deal at all.However, Feng Yanqing's death alert reminded him that it was easy to kill Li Jing, but if it got his hands dirty and caused the people behind Li Jing to intervene, it might be a battle between two tigers.

"Is General Wang's nephew still on the island?" Feng Zhang asked suddenly.

Feng Lin said with a smile: "The general said that guy is lingering in the brothel on the pier, drunk and dreaming of death. That guy is a complete scum, not to mention sleeping in flowers and willows all night, and wandering around the gambling establishments on the pier all day long." , Good guy, spend a lot of money. These days, Feng Liulang has been with this kid, and the money spent by that guy is tens of thousands of guan. And he also likes to compete with others, and he is very brave. If it weren't for the general to take care of him , Even if you have nine lives, you will have gone to see the King of Hades long ago."

Feng Zhang heard this, but smiled and said, "What's his name?"

"Liu Chen, the eldest son of the Liu family's direct branch, is ignorant and ignorant, but in the Liu family, he seems to be favored by Mrs. Liu."

"Okay, okay, okay." Feng Zhang laughed a few times, "This Liu family is also the fifth largest family in Ziqing after Cui, Feng, Han, and Wang, but why is it that one generation is not as good as the other? It won't work after all. You can go to Liulang in a while, tell him that Li Jing has arrived, and let him, the deputy general of Shamen Town, go back to Shamen Island early in the morning. Let him take the Nephew Liu Qilang will also take you to Salmon Island to have fun for a few days."

Feng Lin suddenly realized, "The general means to use Liu Qilang to deal with Li Jing? But I think Liu Qilang is just a dandy, and a silver-like spear is useless. Although this kid is domineering, he likes to cause trouble and fight for power. Fighting bravely is just a master who bullies the weak and fears the hard. If Li Jing is provoked, I'm afraid he is not a person at all. If he can't do it well, don't lose his life, and then we will not be able to explain to General Wang."

"It's really a compliment to say that you are not enlightened." Feng Zhang was a little helpless to his confidant, "I don't know what kind of guy Liu Qi is, and taking him to meet Li Jing is just to test Li Jing's attitude. In addition, it is also a test of his strength. What we want is the result. As for what will happen to Liu Qi, does that need to be considered? What's more, if Liu Qi is just saving face, it is not worth mentioning. If Liu Qi really eats Big loss, or there is a good or bad event, who do you think will be more concerned at that time? Of course, General Wang Jinwang of the Navy. At that time, there is no need for us to do anything, and someone will naturally rush forward for us Fighting with Li Jing."

"My lord is smart, even if Li Jing is a strong dragon, the general Wang of the navy has been a local snake for many years. Here, except for the lord who can always hold down General Wang, the navy's soldiers who are half soldiers and half thieves are not Anyone can control it. Li Jing relied on the support of the Cui family and the Jiedu envoy, but the brother of Wang Jin of the navy is also Wang Jingwu, the tooth general of the Qingzhou Yajun of the Pinglu Army, and Wang Jingwen, the governor of Dengzhou, is also from another clan. Brother, this Yajun is the elite of the Pinglu Army. Qingzhou has always been under their control. His Wang family is in charge. Others are afraid of the power behind Li Jing, but this Wang family is really not afraid."

"That's right, although I wish I could kill this arrogant kid, sometimes I don't have to do it myself. Wouldn't it be fun for us to watch the scenery from behind, sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight? Boy, explain clearly, just let him fan the flames, let Liu Qi fight with Li Jing, don't rush forward with him like a fool. I used to like Feng Liang, but it's a pity that he doesn't have enough brains Flexible ended up being killed, I don't want him to follow in Goro's footsteps."

"Yes, my lord, I will arrange it right away." Feng Lin turned and left.

Feng Zhang reached out and took another pear and ate it. Eating frozen pears in winter is cool and refreshing.Just like the chess piece he set up right now, Li Jing suddenly ran to Daxie village to take up a post, but the shogunate suddenly upgraded a small fortress guarded by him to a town, and specially transferred Li Jing to take up the post. Will.As soon as the news came out, he already realized that this matter was not simple.

Obviously, Jieshuai Song Wei and Cui Jiada finally reached a certain agreement, and they joined forces.After Song Wei got the support of the Cui family, he was unwilling to be a Jiedu envoy who was emptied, and then left in despair a few years later.He wants to really take charge of Ziqing Town, Cui Yunqing will be Jiedu Sima, and Song Wen will be Dengzhou Governor is a clear signal.And Li Jing was sent to Daxie Village. In his opinion, this was obviously a means for them to try to intervene in the Pinglu garrison.

He absolutely didn't want Song Wei and the others to intervene in this small maritime town that he had run for many years, but he also didn't want to fight hard by himself.Feng Yanqing died because he rushed too far.

Song Wei teamed up with the Cui family, and there was even a faint tendency to join forces with the Han family, he couldn't sit idly by.Then let the Liu family and the Wang family take the lead!
