"Yixing can rush to Jiuhaotian, and his pride is enough to defeat a million troops. Sweeping away Wanshao is like a sweep, and Xianli should not have the slightest anger. ”
The prime minister of the Tang Dynasty and the Jingnan Festival made Wang Duo recite this poem in his mouth, and turned his head to the Li Department beside him.
"It's such a big breath, it's just a little bandit, it can have such an arrogant tone, I don't know how thick the sky is, look at this Lu Yanhong, it's really a little bit at a loss, just a few bandits, can't deal with it, is it really necessary to send a large army to exterminate these bandits."
Because Huang Chao was preparing to attack Guangzhou, and through Guò Lingnan Jiedu envoy Li Yuan, he made a lot of unreasonable requests to the imperial court, and wanted to go to Lingnan to be the emperor of the soil, and the imperial court discussed a lot, as the first prime minister, Wang Duo simply took the initiative to ask Ying, and concurrently served as the envoy of Jingnan Jiedu, personally presiding over the defense and conquest of Huangchao.
Li is the great-grandson of Li Sheng, the king of Xiping, after the standard gate, in the impression of everyone, Li is heroic, eloquent, is the best candidate, under the word of the people, Li is appointed as the deputy commander of the southern camp to assist Wang Duo to fight against Huang Chao, Wang Duo is also a good man, boldly delegated power, as the commander-in-chief, commanded behind Jiangling, let Li lead 50,000 elite soldiers, stationed in Tanzhou, front defense, Tanzhou a qiē matter, Li Department can make a decision on the spot.
The general content of the letter is that between Wuling County and Qingyuan County, to which Bazhou belongs, there has been a force of bandits, who are extremely brave, and they are afraid that it will endanger the safety of Shannan East Road and Shannan West Road, and it may affect the overall situation of the imperial court's extermination and defense of Huangchao.
Of course Wang Duo will not believe these nonsense words of Lu Yanhong, Huang Chao is far away in Lingnan, how can he be involved with Shannan Province, if this is really the case, Jiannan Province, Jiangnan Province, Henan Province and Guannei Province that are close to Shannan Province are all in danger, and there are also small groups of bandits in these places, but they will never be directly enemies with the official army.
As the prime minister, Wang Duo understands the situation in the imperial court, and also understands Lu Yanhong's thoughts, the military strength of Shannan West Road is still good, but compared with Shannan East Road, there is a certain gap, Lu Yanhong's background is Yang Fuguang, the relationship between Yang Fuguang and Tian Lingzi is not very harmonious, and even very tense, even with Lu Yanhong is also implicated, the position of the Shannan West Road Jiedu envoy may be threatened, I am afraid that Lu Yanhong wants to take advantage of the banditry to start expanding the army, strengthen their own strength, and get rid of the unfavorable situation, firmly established in Shannan West Road.
The Jiedu envoys in all parts of the country are like this, as long as there is a strong military support, it is difficult for the imperial court to order, and it is difficult to dispatch, the Jiedu envoys in the north, because of the special terrain, have always been strong, and the imperial court is basically unable to intervene, the most typical is the three towns of Hebei, but most of the jiedu envoys in the southeast, the imperial court can still control the army, and the most effective way to control the zhì is to carry out the necessary restrictions on the formation of the army, and it is not allowed to expand the army uncontrollably.
When Wang Duo opened his mouth to speak, Li had already finished reading Lu Yanhong's letter.
"Ge Lao, I think I can ignore it completely, Lu Gong is thinking of taking the opportunity to show his strength, this wind can't be long, if it really agrees, all the festivals in the southeast will inevitably follow suit, and the court can't control it."
Wang Duo nodded.
"This is the view of a certain person, listening to your analysis, I have strengthened my opinion, but this so-called Li Lang is really interesting, it is not easy to defeat the three thousand army sent by Lu Yanhong."
"Ge Lao, a certain is not like this, since Lu Gong wants to expand his strength, he needs to have enough reasons, the needle tip of the big thing, you can also find ways to wave, it is said that there is a big day, three thousand foreign troops and foreign soldiers, although the combat effectiveness is not very strong, but how can ordinary bandits deal with it, if it is defeated by a small group of bandits, can it still be said that it is an ordinary bandit, there is a yellow nest in the south, and some places have begun to be full of soldiers, no matter what happens, it is bigger, it seems that there is a figure of the yellow nest everywhere."
"It makes sense, but this Li Lang, writing such a poem, is still a little level, why did he fall into the grass, it's really a little strange, okay, let Lu Gong talk about this Li Lang in detail."
In the Tang Dynasty, it is not simple to be surnamed Li, at least it shows that there is a certain identity, and it is from this perspective that Wang Duo feels strange and wants to figure out the situation of the so-called bandit leader Li Lang.
Shannan West Road, Xiangyang.
Liu Jurong's face turned pale, and he confirmed his guess.
After receiving Lu Yanhong's letter and seeing the poems, Liu Jurong's body trembled slightly, and he took out the three poems that Liu Di brought back from Huolong Village, and recited them several times in a row.
With years of directness, Liu Jurong believes that Li Lang, the leader of this cottage bandit, is Li Rupei.
Being able to escape from under the butcher's knife of the Shence Army, this may be the way that Li Yan, the king of Wei, thought of, but Li Rupei, who suffered a heavy blow, was able to leave three poems on the wall that showed his ambition, and he could not be crushed by such a huge pain, which is not simple, and what is even more terrifying is that Li Rupei was able to put down his body and become a bandit with everyone's teeth, so as to gather strength, or this Li Rupei, who actually led a group of bandits, a group of rabble, defeated the five hundred tooth army led by Liu Di, Almost annihilated the 3,000 foreign troops and foreign soldiers sent out by Lu Yanhong, what a fear it was.
Li Yan, the king of Wei, has always been Liu Jurong's heart disease, this matter needs to be kept absolutely confidential, no matter who can not say it, after all, the matter of informing and trampling on the relationship between the relatives of the royal family and the corpse to climb up is despised by everyone, not to mention that the object of friendship is a eunuch.
Liu Jurong is known for his prudence and good thinking, especially good at seeing the essence through the phenomenon, over the years, he has been promoted from an ordinary soldier to the position of the Jiedu envoy, and the efforts he has made are huge, many accurate analysis, and wise decisions, which is also one of the important reasons for the steady promotion.
Lu Yanhong wrote this letter, which must have a rich meaning, and Liu Jurong vaguely understood the meaning behind it.
Lu Yanhong wanted to expand his strength in Shannan West Road and stabilize his position, but there was no excuse, this time he finally seized the opportunity, how could he miss it, but this kind of behavior of wanting to expand his strength was not allowed by the imperial court, and the purpose of Lu Yanhong's letter to himself was to let himself help appeal.
Liu Jurong was a little annoyed, he had previously sent Liu Di to exterminate the bandits, mainly thinking that Liu Di would be able to accumulate military exploits and enhance his prestige among the Ya Army, but he didn't expect to be self-defeating and was caught by Lu Yanhong.
Liu Di entered the house, Liu Jurong did not speak, and handed him Lu Yanhong's letter.
Liu Di took the letter and read it hastily, with a smile on his face.
"Father, the child didn't expect that the three thousand soldiers sent by Lu Gong were actually defeated by Li Lang."
Liu Jurong was angry, Liu Di couldn't see the meaning behind this letter, and actually thought that the 3,000-tooth foreign army and the foreign town soldiers were defeated, doesn't this show that his failure is a reasonable matter, and it is completely to excuse himself.
"Zhaolin, what I want you to see is not what it means, what is the effect of your justification in front of the father."
Liu Di's face flushed, and he began to read the letter carefully.
Finally, Liu Di raised his head.
"Father, the child feels that this Li Lang is Li Rupei, if this is really the case, it will be a little tricky."
Liu Jurong nodded slightly, Liu Di hadn't completely disappointed him, and it was not bad to be able to make such an analysis.
"Father, the child implores the leader to exterminate Li Lang and completely eradicate the hidden danger."
"No, what Lu Gong means, don't you understand, he is not afraid of this bandit, nor is he afraid of that Li Lang, he is thinking of using this bandit to strengthen his own strength, at this point, anyone who assists in suppressing the bandits is against his original intention, and he will not be supported, unless the court allows him to expand his forces."
Liu Di's face also changed, he knew about his failure in Guanzhuang Town, Lu Yanhong knew about it, if Lu Yanhong made a fuss about his failure, his father would be very embarrassed.
"Father, what should the boy do?"
Liu Jurong's expression became stern, and even a little cold.
"Zhaolin, think twice about doing things, think of many possible consequences, know that you can't do it, that's asking for hardship, just say that Lu Gong wrote a letter, isn't it just thinking of a certain help to appeal to the imperial court to allow him to expand the army, a certain can be sure, Lu Gong's mind at this time, is not at all in terms of exterminating bandits, but thinking about expanding strength, this is the opposite of the south, in fact, the task is to exterminate the bandits, just imagine, Li Rupei can defeat the five hundred tooth army led by you, and can annihilate the three thousand foreign army and foreign town soldiers, The ability is extraordinary, if you indulge it, or even give it a chance, it will definitely grow rapidly, and at that time, Lu Gong may not be able to stay in Shannan West Road. ”
In order to allow Liu Di to understand many things, Liu Jurong spared no effort to analyze in more detail.
"Although Li Rupei has the ability, but after all, he is committed to the bandits, and he wants to show up in a short period of time, it is impossible, in this case, a certain is not in a hurry, Lu Gong is not thinking about expanding his strength, a certain will help appeal, Lu Gong cannot always condone this bandit, and he will do his best to exterminate it at any time, so that Lu Gong and Li Rupei will inevitably fight against each other, it is certain that no matter who it is, they will have to pay the price of heavy dà, Lu Gong exterminated Li Rupei, and he will definitely suffer heavy losses, maybe he will be slumped, Lu Gong can't kill Li Rupei, and his vitality is greatly damaged, so he can ask the court to fight and exterminate Li Rupei, and all the matters can be solved at the same time. ”
Liu Di nodded again and again, he felt that he had learned a lot, this was the real strategy.
