Late Tang

Today, in Yanying Hall, there is a gathering of heroes and stars.

When Li Jing entered the hall, the emperor had not yet arrived, and the generals in the hall stood together and greeted each other.

Zheng Congxuan, governor of Hedong, Li Zhuo of Heyang, Du Shencun of Zhaoyi, Yu Jing of Zhenwu, Helianduo of Tiande Army, Tuoba Sigong of Xiasui, Li Zhong, envoy of Yicheng Jiedu, Cui Anqian, envoy of Zhongwu Jiedu, and the seven generals who had just returned triumphantly from Daibei formed a small circle, talking to each other.

Li Jing had a conversation outside with the Deputy Ambassador and Jiedu Envoy of the Datong Army Jiedu under the medicine tree outside. Following behind Zheng Congxuan and Yu Jian, since the defeat of the Shatuo people, the status of the Hu people who followed closely behind them has also dropped a lot.Although they have also become the commanders-in-chief of the town, their status in the Yanying Hall is a bit awkward, and even the little eunuchs in the hall don't pay much attention to them.

As soon as they saw Li Jing coming in, the two immediately came forward to greet each other affectionately.He Lianduo was the first to see Li Jing coming in, "Li Zhenguo is here!" His eyes lit up and he walked over.After Helian Duo entered Beijing, he cleaned up his whole body, not only put his messy hair into a bun, but also trimmed his yellow beard so well that Li Jing thought of her BMW that had just had its mane cut.

Tuoba Sigong also greeted him with a smile on his face: "These days, I have visited Duke Qi's mansion several times to pay respects, but the door said that the commander is recuperating behind closed doors. It is great to see the commander today. Many days No, it’s because I miss it.”

Li Jing nodded, first greeted Zheng Congxuan, Cui Anqian and others, and then bowed to Yu Jian: "Teacher!"

Yu Yu didn't come over, but just nodded to Li Jing, and he gave Li Jing a meaningful look.He didn't have time to say anything during the short meeting outside, but he was very satisfied with Li Jing's behavior of staying behind closed doors these days.He didn't lose his mind because of his high position for a while.What he is most satisfied with Li Jing is his firm mind. In his opinion, this is more important than Li Jing being good at making money, or even commanding troops.

Du Shencun came over with a smile, and took Li Jing's hand very acquaintedly, "Come on, I will introduce some friends to Duke Qi. Everyone admires such a young Sanzhen Jieshuai very much."

When they came to a circle on the other side, they could tell that Du Shenquan was still very prestigious here.Seeing him coming, everyone came to see the old prime minister one after another.

"Everyone, this is Li Jing and Li Jiyu, the commanders-in-chief of Zhen [***], Lu Longjun, and Datong Army, who are now famous all over the world."

Everyone came up to salute one after another, and all of these people were Li Jing's well-known seniors, and all of them took the post of commander-in-chief.He was the first one, and before Du Shencun could introduce him, Xin Xun who was beside Li Jing immediately stepped forward and said, "Commander, this is Du Xun, the sworn brother of Xun, who was formerly the Jiedu envoy of the Yicheng Army and is now the eastern capital of Jidu." The defense envoy, governor of Henan Province, Dongdu stayed behind, and made peace with Zhang Shi, the Duke of Runan County."

At the beginning, Xin Yu went to Sizhou regardless of safety, because of this righteous brother. The friendship between Xin Yu and Du Yu has already been known to the people of Tang Dynasty.Especially at the time when Xin Xun first persuaded Du Xing to evacuate Sizhou, what Du Xun said made countless people feel his loyalty.At that time, Du Wei said, "How can there be any reason to enjoy the imperial position in peace, but to abandon the city and flee in times of crisis?"I don't do that kind of person!Besides, every common people has their own home, who doesn't cherish it?I survived alone, how can I convince the crowd in the future?I am determined to lead the soldiers to live and die with Sizhou City! '

After hundreds of hard and bloody battles in Sizhou, after the final victory, there has been a saying in the world that the heroes of the world are only hard-working, and the loyalty of the whole dynasty is Du.After the Battle of Sizhou, Du Qiang inspected the minister of the Ministry of Industry, the governor of Huazhou, the envoy of Zheng Hua, and the Jiedu of the Yicheng Army.

Du Ke and Du Shenquan belong to the Jingzhao Du family, but they are not of the same family. Although the two ancestors have the same ancestor, they are two different branches.Du Yu's family background is higher than that of Du Shencun. His grandfather is the famous prime minister Du You, who has gone through the five dynasties of Su, Dai, De, Shun, and Xian, and the elders of the five dynasties.Du Yu's cousin, Du Yu, was the prime minister of the Zhengshitang in the Yizong Dynasty, and another cousin, Du Mu, was a famous poet in the late Tang Dynasty.

When the two greeted each other, they admired each other.

Afterwards, Du Wei, Du Shenquan and Li Jing introduced several people, namely the largest and richest feudal town in the Tang Dynasty, Huainan Jiedushi, and Tongping Zhangshi Liu Ye.And Xuanwu Jiedu envoy Mu Renyu.

Later, Li Jing also met Chen Jingxuan who lost the polo match last time, but got the position of Deputy Ambassador of Lu Longjun Jiedu.

After chatting with everyone, Li Jing found his own seat in the eunuch line in the palace and just sat down.A strange eunuch in a purple robe came over, but when he saw a person behind him, Li Jing's expression darkened immediately.

The eunuch said to Li Jing with a smile on his face: "Yang Fuguang, the military supervisor of the Shatuo Army, has seen Li Zhenguo!"

Just now Li Jing had already guessed the identity of this person, although he was dissatisfied that he was getting involved with Li Guochang, but he did not reach out to hit the smiling person.What's more, this Yang Fuguang was also a loyal official who was extremely loyal to the Tang Dynasty in history. When the Datang Building was about to collapse, he worked hard to run around in all directions, which can be regarded as loyalty.

"Haven't the Sha Tuo army gone to Xichuan yet?" Li Jing said lightly.

Li Guochang's face was still a little pale, this painful experience is not so easy to let go.He took two steps forward, bowed his head to Li Jing and said, "Li Guochang met Qi Guogong, he was confused for a while before, and offended him, please forgive me."

"They are all doing things for the imperial court, so it's not a matter of forgiveness or forgiveness." Li Jing said indifferently.

Li Guochang looked at this guy who was close at hand, wishing he could pounce on him and tear him apart.If Li Jing hadn't sent troops to replace the north, the outcome of the matter would definitely not have been the current situation, but he knew that he could not offend Li Jing. "Qi Guogong, I have an unfeeling request, I hope Li Zhenguo can agree."

Li Jing snorted in his nostrils as an answer.

"Guochang was graciously granted by His Majesty to make meritorious deeds to atone for his sins and send troops to Xichuan. Right now, Quanzi is still wandering in Mobei. I hope that the commander-in-chief will make a difference and let Quanzi return to the Central Plains, so that he can serve the imperial court together."

Li Jing smiled, "If you are looking for me for this matter, you are looking for the wrong person." After finishing speaking, ignore Li Guochang and Yang Fuguang. Li Jing has no good attitude towards Li Keyong.The hatred between them is bigger than that with Tian Lingzi. Li Jing has now sent an elite killer team into Daibei to look for Li Keyong.Even if he can't be killed, he has to suffer more in Mobei.

"The emperor is here!" An eunuch shouted loudly in front of the palace.

The generals in the hall immediately took their positions. Although the Yanying Hall is no more like the Xuanzheng Hall, and there are no ceremonial officials, but today the hall is mostly filled with local feudal commanders, so the atmosphere is still quite grand.

The first to enter were the ministers of the Zhengshitang, the left and right lieutenants of the Shence Army, the left and right privy envoys of the Privy Council, and the envoys of the North and South Xuanhui Courts who were also in charge of eunuchs.These people have almost controlled the entire government affairs, and this time has come. It is obvious that they have discussed together just now and have reached some results.

After these people arrived, it took a while for the emperor to enter the Yanying Hall under the guards on the left and right.

"In the old rule in the Yanying Hall, there is no need to be too polite, everyone just sit down and discuss the matter, let's talk freely." As soon as the emperor came in, he waved his hand directly to stop the salutes of the ministers.

To Li Jing's surprise, it was not Lu Xie, the prime minister of the Zhengshitang, who spoke out first, but Zheng Tian. He said loudly, "Recently, private salt dealers gathered in the Tianping Army to loot prefectures and counties and run around. And He has already joined forces with Wang Jingwu, the rebel general of Ziqingzhou, and successively defeated Xue Chong, the military governor of Tianping Army, and Li Xi, the military governor of Taining Army. Shocked, Xue Chong, Li Xi, and Song Wei are all guilty of dereliction of duty, I suggest that the three should be removed from their posts."

Many generals in the palace were very surprised when they heard the news for the first time.However, there are also many people who already know it and have no expression on their faces.

After Zheng Tian proposed, Lu Xie immediately came out, "Your Majesty, although Xue, Li and Song have dereliction of duty, this is not the time to pursue accountability. The most urgent task is to put down the thief. Otherwise, Chang'an will also be in turmoil if the water transportation is blocked. "

Li Jing sat down and listened to the words of the two prime ministers. Although he was not ashamed of Lu Xie and Tian Lingzi's collusion, Zheng Tian's opinion was not a good way for the Chinese people in terms of facts. The entire towns of Tianping, Taining, and Ziqing were even more chaotic.Lu Xie's proposal hits the nail on the head.

"The Zhengshitang has just received Song Wei's [-]-li rush from Ziqing Town. Song Wei knows that he has failed in his duty. He has heard that the bandit army is threatening the water transportation. Step and ride five thousand, and set up a special envoy to govern the affairs of the campaign. The minister believes that Song Wei has high qualifications and prestige. Six years ago, he followed Kang Chengxun to suppress the Pang Xun rebellion, and a few years ago he defeated Nanzhao in southern Xinjiang. The army is enough to take on this important task. The minister proposes to appoint Ziqing Pinglu Jiedu envoy Song Wei to recruit grass bandit envoys for the camp of all Taoists!"

Lu Xie launched Song Wei as a recruitment envoy after a long discussion with Tian Lingzi.After Li Jing proposed to lead troops to fight against the thieves yesterday, Tian Lingzi was already looking for a suitable general to replace Li Jing, so as to prevent Li Jing from making great contributions.After much deliberation, I didn't come up with a result for a while.At this moment, Song Wei's booklet arrived.Song Wei is a capable general, Guan Jian is that Song Wei is a person who worships under Lu Xie, and for Tian Lingzi, they are all his own people.Besides, Song Wei is still Li Jing's adoptive father, so he can contain Li Jing.And because the relationship between Li Jing and Song Wei was not very good at the beginning, and Dengzhou was divided away, so there is no need to worry about their alliance.

In the end, Tian Lingzi finally chose Song Wei as his envoy.

"In order to quickly wipe out the grass bandits and Wang Jingwu's rebel army, I would like to invite the Shence Army to send [-] infantry and [-] cavalry to Song Wei to strengthen its army. In addition, I would like to invite Du Shencun to lead the Zhaoyi Army, and Li Zhuo to lead the army. Heyang Army, Du Wei led the Dongdu Army, Li Zhong led the Yicheng Army, Cui Anqian led the Zhongwu Army, Mu Renyu led the Xuanwu Army, Liu Ye led the Huainan Army, Li Jing led the Zhen[***], Xue Neng led the Probation Army Send troops to encircle and suppress. Then let Xue Chong lead the Tianping Army, and Li Clan lead the Taining Army to perform meritorious service. The soldiers and horses of the twelve towns will jointly encircle and suppress the bandit army, and all the soldiers and horses will be led by Song Wei."

Hearing this encirclement and suppression plan, Li Jing couldn't help taking a breath.Twelve groups of troops were mobilized at one time. It can be said that the troops east of Luoyang, north of the Huaihe River, and south of the Yellow River were all mobilized. Even Hedong also mobilized two towns of soldiers and horses to join the battle.It was completely surrounded on all sides, but Li Jing couldn't help but shook his head secretly. The soldiers are more expensive than many. It seems that the scene is huge, but the more it is, the more disappointing the final result will be.

At this time, Tian Lingzi also came out to play: "Your privy envoy, Ximen Sigong, will be appointed as the military envoy of the camp capital of all Taoism, and Lieutenant Yang Fugong of the Right Shence Army will be envoy of the military envoy of all Taoist camps!"

Hearing this memorial, Ximen Sigong and Yang Fugong who were standing at the bottom of the jade steps changed their colors at the same time, opened their eyes suddenly, and glared at Tian Lingzi.This request was too unexpected for them. In the previous discussions, these two items were never discussed at all.In the end, Tian Lingzi wantonly mobilized the generals of the Gyeonggi soldiers and horses, and even carried out cleanups. They have already taken a step back.But it never occurred to Tian Lingzi to take this opportunity to drive them out of the capital.I'm afraid that as soon as they left the capital this time, when they came back, the whole of Chang'an would be completely under Tian Lingzi's control.

The two were about to step forward, but the emperor Li Xuan had already waved his hand, and said calmly: "Quick play!" (To be continued.)
