Chapter 7 Liu Heiqi
After Kou Zhong and his generals discussed the military operation and overall deployment to attack Jiangdu, the generals were ordered to work separately, and the leading troops, led by Chen Changlin and Ma Chang, immediately moved south through the waterway. Kou Zhong was tired for days and went back to his bedroom to meditate and rest. In less than half an hour, there was a knock on the door. Kou Zhong was physically and mentally exhausted, sighing that the leader was not easy to do, and he couldn't help but envy Yun Yi's leisure. Kou Zhong went out of the hall to see Gui Xiliang. The boy looked happy and hurried forward to see him and said, "Li Zitong wants to surrender to your brother. Xiao Zhong is so powerful!"
"Why did Li Zitong suddenly become so obedient? Where did the news come from?" Kou Zhong was overjoyed.
Gui Xiliang lowered his voice and pretended to be mysteriously: "It was Shao Lingzhou who came to beg us in a low voice, but Li Zitong was accompanied by conditions."
"Huh! What qualifications does Li Zitong have to talk to me now? Don't he know that I hate him? It is the blessing of his ancestors who don't kill him in the hometown of my three brothers. Damn it!" Kou Zhong frowned.
"The young commander is angry. His first condition is to let him live. Ha! Damn it! Li Zitong is also a dareless species. Where is Ziling? Isn't he here?" Gui Xiliang and Kou Zhong both said dirty and laughed and scolded.
"When did you become so flattering? Ziling has something to go somewhere else. Don't talk about it. What the hell is Li Zitong's condition? Kou Zhong listened to the dirty words of his hometown and laughed.
"The rest are all branches. The most important thing is that you let him leave Jiangdu. He only took about 200 people away. Jiangdu City will be accepted by you peacefully to ensure that no one dares to resist." Guixi is good.
"Go back and tell Shao Lingzhou that as long as Li Zitong is obedient, how can I kill his interest? In three days, I will arrive outside Jiangdu City and ask him to be ready to set out at any time. I don't have the patience to wait outside the city. Kou Zhong heard this flashed a trace of helplessness and waved his hand. Kou Zhongxuan immediately remembered Yun Yi's reminder that competing for hegemony in the world is by no means a martial arts struggle. The first thing to achieve a great career is an extraordinary amount of people.
......
Two months ago, on the ninth day of October, Shen Gong City, Shen Gong Beiyuan.
"Bum!" Li Shimin slapped the door frame heavily, and the wood cracks splashed. Li Jing, who was waiting outside, appeared in stern. Li Shimin's forehead was affixed to the back of his hand that slapped the door frame and said painfully, "I'm fine!"
Li Jing looked at Li Shimin, and then at Xu Ziling, who was still sitting at the table in the heart of the hall, and retreated with a heavy look. Li Shimin took a few breaths in a hurry, then returned to Xu Ziling and sat down with heavy footsteps. He said sadly, "I just got the news that my father killed Liu Wenjing."
"What? Liu Wenjing is the great meritorious minister of the Li Tang uprising. He has participated in the conspiracy of your father's uprising. He has always been one of the close ministers trusted by Li Yuanlai. No matter what he does wrong, he will not die. Xu Ziling lost his voice and said that he came to meet Li Shimin at the invitation of his concubine and said goodbye.
"Does Liu Wenjing often say good things for Shimin's brother?" Xu Ziling then asked in a low voice.
"That's right. Uncle Jing is the only fault of my Tang Dynasty. Or he was defeated in the battle of Qianshuiyuan, because he was from my Tiance Mansion, so he put Uncle Jing to death. If it was just to deal with me, Li Shimin, my father was too cruel!"
"Your father is forcing you to rebel so that you can be sentenced to death." Xu Ziling's bystander was clear and said suddenly. Li Shimin looked up and looked straight at Xu Ziling with his eyes, but he seemed to be blind. His face was helpless, and his eyes were as gloomy ashes.
"The reason why I came here today is to make this seemingly rebellious proposal to the world's brother. There is only one purpose, which is to avoid the great disaster of the Central Plains re-stricken division and invasion by foreign invaders! If the brother of the world nods his head and agrees, it is not for his own honor and death, but for the happiness of all the people in the world. The future fate of the Central Plains is between the thoughts of the people. Xu Ziling made an amazing suggestion.
Li Shimin's eyes were slightly refreshed, and he immediately sighed, "Why does Ziling have to be like this? Once Brother Yun and Brother Kou are together, no one in the world can stop him. If Song Que is persuaded again, the extraterritorial Turks will retreat. What can I, Li Shimin, do?"
"For other discussion, I will persuade Yunyi and Kou Zhong first, and everyone will find a way to express their determination first." Xu Ziling and Li Shimin stared at him.
The sound of feet rose, and Li Jing arrived in a hurry. Shi Li reported, "The emperor urgently called the king of Qin back to Chang'an."
Li Shimin's body was shocked. He grabbed Xu Ziling's shoulder and said, "Your proposal is discussed in detail with the concubine. I want to go first!"
Seeing that Li Shimin hurried away from the God Bow City, Xu Ziling put down half of his mind, but the burden and pressure entrusted by the master's concubine increased unabated. How can I say something unspeakable to the two brothers? Let them cooperate with Li Shimin devoutly...
......
In early December, Jiangdu City.
Almost at the same time when Yun Yi captured Yuzhang, Kou Zhong also peacefully took over Jiangdu. Jiang Du got it, and his busyness also began. Kou Zhong reviewed and signed all kinds of orders, orders, appointments and so on in the study. In the study, he reviewed and signed thousands of documents such as all kinds of orders, orders, appointments, appointments, etc. He was so busy that he couldn't help smiling bitterly and said to the virtual deeds beside him, "Can I sign on my behalf? It will save me a lot of time, or I just sign. If I don't review it, I'd rather fight a hard battle than work so hard.
Xu Xingzhi smiled and said, "The young commander's signing of the dragon and phoenix dance penetrates the back of the paper, implying the degree that others can't imitate. How can I sign it? Take good care of a country, although you can let go of it to the people below. But at least you should understand it so that you can know who has executed it properly or not done it well.
Kou Zhong laughed and said, "You are coaxing me. I can't even see my signature. I still know this. Yunyi is still clever. In his divine arrow hall, he uses the 'government' group and the 'governance' group to help him deal with important affairs and public order. The 'social' group and the 'ji' group develop business and agriculture. The army under his command is managed by a military committee. He usually plays around with his siblings when he has nothing to do. Compared with him, I'm suffering!"
Xu Xingzhi flashed a wry smile and advised: "Yi Shuai's system is extremely perfect. The military and government are divided, the division of labor is accurate, and there is a court as the backing. The order is issued unimpeded..."
"I want to reform!" As soon as Kou Zhong heard the endless talk about political affairs, he was upset and interrupted.
"The reform can be postponed. There is one thing to ask the young commander to consider, which is also to speak to the young commander on behalf of the young commander's country." Hearing this, he turned his tone and said.
"What's the matter?" Kou Zhongqi asked.
"Now that the time is ripe, all the soldiers of the young commander-in-chief country, please beg the young commander to be emperor immediately." He knelt down and asked respectfully.
"This matter will be talked about after killing Yu Culture." When Kou Zhong heard this, instead of being excited, he played a cold and quickly changed the topic and said, "What's the situation in the north?"
Xu Xingzhi sighed and calmly replied, "Liu Wuzhou and Song Jingang were killed by the poisoned hand of jaws, and their territory was divided by Li Yuan and Jie Li. Liang Shidu relied on the support of the Turks. He had invaded the south many times and was repelled by the Tang army. The most embarrassing one was the attack on Yanzhou, which was defeated by Duan De, the general of Yanzhou, the general of the Tang Dynasty. Even more than 200 miles away from Weizhou, Liang Shi, counterattacked a few months later, and then defeated by De Cao. The Liang Shidu only escaped with more than 100 people. However, at present, Liang Shi has completely become the most important running dog minions of the Turks in the Central Plains. He is very close to the Turks and obedient to Jieli. In such a situation, although there is the Tang army as a barrier to the Central Plains, the invasion of Jieli is just around the corner.
"Bum!" Kou Zhong clapped his palm on the stage, and said, "I dare to protect the Tang Dynasty once there is civil strife or Li Shimin's death, Jieli will inevitably wield soldiers to invade, regard the middle land as the grassland, avoid the heavy is light, do not attack any city, only plunder the villages and counties that have no resistance, to fight to support the war, and then go straight to Chang'an. The people who supported Liang Shidu established a pseudo-dynasties and messed up our middle soil. And I expect that the day of sending troops will be around the freezing period next year.
The sound of the wolf army's iron hooves stepping on the earthquake Tianlayue seemed to be ringing in the ear drums. The iron hooves trampled on the place, and there was no longer an inch of happy land. The two couldn't help but be silent.
"Since the death of Dou Jiande, Brother Liu broke through Li Shentong and Li Yuanji in Raoyang. What happened after that? It is also the credit of Brother Liu that Mr. Li has lived until now!" A glight flashed in Kou Zhong's eyes and asked. Because after this year, Liu Heiyu is 41 years old.
"Just received the news from the north, Liu Heiyu's prestige after the battle of Raoyang, and the number of responders increased day by day. Guanzhou and Maozhou all surrendered. On this day, Gao Kaidao, he defected to the Tang Dynasty, and also openly rebelled against the Tang Dynasty and was called the King of Yan. The old departments of Jiande in various places have fought to kill government officials in response to the black tart. Now Liu Jun directly forces Zongyue in Hebei. If Zongyue is not guaranteed, Li Tang may lose Xiangzhou, Weizhou and other places. Then Liu Hei can get the old land of Jiande and Daxia. He replied in vain.
"Li Yuan is afraid of Li Shimin's meritorious deeds, so he is idle. Who in the Tang army can stand the overall situation?" Kou Zhong sneered.
"Li Shimin returned to Chang'an from the bow city but was not valued. Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji did not know how to suppress Li Shimin again. Li Yuan did not use Li Shimin to deal with Liu Heiyu, but once again ordered the crown prince Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, to lead the division to suppress and assist Li Daozong. At present, the two armies confront each other in Changle." Xu Xingzhi nodded and continued to say.
"Ha! I think the Tang army not only can't defend, but also suffer a big defeat. Not only because I have confidence in Brother Liu, but also because Li Shimin has been unable to protect himself and his fate is difficult to predict. Most of the soldiers led by Li Jiancheng are under the command of the former Li Xiaozi. His military heart is bound to fluctuate and the generals have no ambition. Brother Liu is the same enemy. If the enemy is weak, how can the Tang army be? Unbeaten?" Kou Zhong said confidently. He nodded and agreed.
"How on earth do we deal with the relationship with Liu Heiqi?" He asked in vain.
"We can quickly figure out that when Brother Liu restores the old land of the Xia Dynasty, he will send someone to contact us to express his feelings. At that time, it only depends on whether Liu Heiyu will immediately claim the throne after defeating Li Jiancheng. You can guess what he meant. Kou Zhong replied confidently.
