Big Joe, Little Joe loves me

Chapter 147

Ji Ling is Yuan Shu's number one general.

Not only because of his outstanding ability to command the army, but also because he has the best martial arts skills among all generals.

Ji Ling is not only brave, but also cautious. He never fights uncertain battles, or in other words, he never puts himself in danger.

Ji Ling had heard of Li Shu's name, but he didn't know how strong Li Shu was.

In the one-third-acre land in Lujiang, Li Shu can be regarded as a well-known figure, but outside of Lujiang, this person's name is not very famous.

At least Ji Ling himself never put Li Shu in his eyes.

"Can someone share this general's worries and take this son down!"

Ji Ling looked at Li Shu from a distance in the army, with a smile on his face, and he said casually without turning his head. Immediately behind him, many generals stepped forward to lead the battle.

Ji Ling glanced over all the generals, picked out one and said, "Lei Bo, take this son for me, this battle will be your first achievement!"

Lei Bo was overjoyed, picked up his weapon, and rode out on his horse.

When Li Shu saw the coming general, he frowned slightly and shouted, "Who are you? It is Ji Ling who Li wants to kill!"

Just looking at the clothes, Li Shu could tell at a glance that the person who came was probably not Ji Ling.

Although Lei Bo is also wearing armor, he only wears the leather armor of an ordinary officer. If a senior officer like Ji Ling still wears leather armor to fight, he will obviously lose his status.

Lei Bo rode his horse to a sudden stop, pointed his spear far away, and said arrogantly: "This general is under the command of General Ji Ling, the vanguard Zhonglang General Lei Bo, the villager Li Shu, hurry up and die!"

Li Shu's face darkened, he didn't expect Ji Ling to be so cunning, and sent a man from the future to challenge the general, it was shameless.

Feng Ze stepped forward suddenly, and said in a respectful voice: "General Li, please order me to fight, and I will not return to the battle until I kill this thief!"

Li Shu took a deep look at Feng Ze, waved his hands and said, "Ji Ling's army is twice as large as ours. If you want to defeat this army with the least cost, you must kill the enemy's generals before the battle to boost the morale of our army. Ji Ling If he doesn't fight, I will encourage him to fight!"

After all, Li Shu slapped the horse's ass, and the horse galloped out immediately.

I saw Li Shu holding up his long sword on the horse and shouting loudly: "I am Li Shu. Your general Ji Ling is as timid as a mouse and dare not go out. I will kill you first to sacrifice the flag!"

In Ji Ling's army, a junior officer raised his head and said: "General, this guy is so arrogant, if he is not captured but killed, it may damage the reputation of the general!"

Ji Ling snorted coldly, but did not answer.

The drums of war are beating, and the breeze is blowing.

Each of the two armies dispatched a cavalry, and they collided with each other while galloping wildly, with the clanging of weapons.

Under the attention of thousands of people, Li Shu and Lei Bo fought back and forth for dozens of rounds, and the outcome was still hard to tell.

Ji Ling's eyes were burning brightly, and his light flashed: "Li Shu, that's all!"

After a long time, Li Shu, who was fighting fiercely, suddenly caught a flaw in Lei Bo's, and unexpectedly slashed Lei Bo's weapon away. Lei Bo, who had lost his weapon, turned pale with fright, turned his horse's head and fled back into the formation. .

I saw Li Shu holding up his long sword, looking up to the sky and laughing loudly: "Ji Ling is a man without courage, and all the generals under his command are vulnerable!"

As soon as this remark came out, the soldiers behind Li Shu followed suit one after another. Thousands of people shouted in unison, the voice was like thunder: "Ji Ling is a man without courage, and all the generals under his command are vulnerable..."

Hearing these words, Ji Ling was immediately ashamed and annoyed, and said loudly: "Come here, take my weapon!"

A moment later, Ji Ling, holding a three-pointed two-edged knife, and riding a tall horse, rushed out in the dust.

Ji Ling shouted from afar: "I am General Ji Ling, Li Shu, don't bully me too much, don't you dare to fight me!"

Seeing Ji Ling going to battle, Li Shu was overjoyed, galloped forward with his horse and sword, and cursed: "Ji Ling, today you will die for sure!"

The generals of the two armies went to battle at the same time, the sound of the war drums suddenly became presumptuous, and the soldiers of the two armies roared hoarsely, and the battlefield was filled with a sense of murder.

Ji Ling witnessed the battle between Li Shu and Lei Bo, and knew that Li Shu's moves were mediocre and lacked strength.

Beating a Lei Bo is a waste of strength, but when you meet General Ji Ling, you will lose your skin if you don't die!

Ji Ling sneered again and again, confidently gripping the horse's belly with his legs, and sprinting up with all his strength, he picked up the three-pointed and two-edged knife with both hands, intending to cut Li Shu off the horse with one blow.

Seeing that the two galloping horses were about to meet, Ji Ling had already raised his sword and dropped it.

A treacherous smile flashed across Li Shu's face.

When Ji Ling saw it from the corner of his eye, he was startled, but before he could react, he heard a loud "bang".

At that moment, a flame flashed in Li Shu's hands.

Ji Ling, who was galloping on the horse, seemed to have been hit by something, and suddenly fell off the horse. After rolling several times on the ground, he never saw any movement again.

"General!"

Ji Ling's army was in chaos, and countless soldiers roared and shouted.

Li Shu tightened the reins, raised his arms and shouted: "All officers and men listen to the order, Ji Ling is dead, the whole army will attack, break this army, and increase the ranks!"

The morale of Li Shu's army soared, as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, more than ten thousand people rushed to the enemy's position desperately.

As soon as Ji Ling died, the army was left without a leader. The [-] Yuan Shu army fought desperately under the organization of a group of low-level officers, but the army without Ji Ling was like a headless fly. The army of art rushed away.

The [-] army was routed, some died, some fled, and those who couldn't escape all became Li Shu's prisoners of war.

Once this battle was over, Li Shu's name was like a spring breeze passing through the border, and within ten days his name had spread throughout Jiangdong.

Lujiang, a small imperial court.

Why is it called the Little Court?
Because in the entire imperial court, except for the emperor Liu Xie, there were no princes and ministers on the stage, and the only one who barely deserved the title of "Minister" was Liu Gan, the governor of Yangzhou.

Today, Liu Xie is going to seal the generals of Yangzhou in front of everyone, so basically all the officials who can be mobilized in Yangzhou have come to the small court in Lujiang.

From morning to noon, Liu Xie rewarded a total of [-] people, and among the [-] people, more than half were Liu Gan's people.

Among them, Zhang Zhao was exceptionally promoted from a long history to Taifu, and recorded the affairs of the minister.

Zhang Hong was promoted to Guang Luxun, in charge of security affairs in the palace and so on.

In terms of military generals, Zhou Taijia was named General Chariot and Cavalry, Zhou Yu was named General Wei, Xu Kun, Tai Shici, Gan Ning, and Sun Fu were respectively named Generals Front, Front, Left, Left, and Right, and the rest of the generals had their own titles.

After all the officials, big and small, were sealed, all eyes finally fell on Liu Gan.

Everyone guessed what official position Liu Gan would add. Some guessed Sikong, some guessed the general of the National People's Congress, some guessed the grand captain, and some even guessed the prime minister...

Many speculations were all turned into Liu Xie's words: "Liu Gan, come forward and accept the seal."

Liu Gan stepped out of the crowd in two steps and bowed slightly under the attention of everyone.

Liu Xie took out the imperial edict that had been drawn up, and after reading a series of clichéd and beautiful words, he couldn't stop talking: "Liu Gan is made the king of Ming Dynasty, with [-] households in the city, ranking above the princes and kings."

Liu Gan cupped his hands and saluted expressionlessly: "Thank you Your Majesty for your kindness."

After doing enough superficial skills, Liu Gan walked to Liu Xie's side and whispered: "There is a family banquet tonight, will your Majesty come down?"

Liu Xie whispered: "Uncle Huang's invitation must go."

Liu Gan smiled slightly, then greeted Liu Xie, and left the small court first. Liu Gan threw all the mess of civil affairs to Liu Xie and Zhang Zhao for negotiation and management. Liu Gan himself was only in charge of the military, and Don't allow others to get involved.

In the first year of Jian'an, Liu Gan became king.

The emperor allowed Liu Gan to "visit the unknown, and walk on the sword to the palace", and established the Ming Dynasty, with the capital in Lujiang Wancheng.

As soon as the news came out, the world was in an uproar.
