When Li Jing got his teacher Cui Yunqing to arrive in Dengzhou, he personally rushed to the Arc de Triomphe to welcome him into the city.

The reunion of master and apprentice is full of joy. Li Jing brought his county king jade and asked Cui Yunqing to board the car and return to the Shuai Mansion together. By the time everyone arrived at the Shuaifu, it was already completely dark.

However, although it is dark, the city that never sleeps in Dengzhou is still brightly lit. Street lamps are lit up in all the streets and alleys, and several major arterial roads are illuminated, adding a lot of color to the whole city. Especially in the area of Shuaifu, it is a place where many generals and ministers of the Yamen and Zhenguo Army live. Outside the gates of their mansions, red lanterns were held high, illuminating the entire street.

Li Jing called Zhao Jiang and instructed him to personally arrange everyone's families to live and rest in the welcome building, and then go to the Shuaifu Festival Hall with Cui Yunqing, Song Wen and others to drink tea and chat.

For the teacher Cui Yunqing to come to the post of deputy metropolitan protector of the Anton Metropolitan Protectorate, Li Jing still welcomes it from the bottom of his heart. Cui Yunqing has served as the assassin of many states, and in recent years, he has served as the commander of several towns such as Taining, Lingnan East Road, and Jiangnan West Road, which can be described as a unique talent. In particular, he is also Li Jing's teacher, and he has a top wealthy background like Cui's. In particular, Cui Yunqing is still a literati handsome, which makes Li Jing even more welcome.

The Zhenguo army was out of the territory of the sixteen states, and the autumn offensive against Goguryeo was about to begin, and this time the destruction of Goguryeo was bound to be won. If Goguryeo is destroyed, the Zhenguo army will at least be able to increase the land of several states. With such a large territory, Li Jing can't just rely on Li Zhen, Li Liang, Guo Chengan, Jing Xiang, Gaiyu and others, he needs more people to help manage civil affairs.

And the arrival of ten generals such as Song Wen and Song Xi, Li Jing was also very happy. These people are all Song Wei and Cui Yunqing's people. Nature is his people. Although it is not as credible as Lin Wei and others. But at least it's my own. The war in Liaodong is about to begin. The addition of ten generals who were originally at the first level of soldiers and horses is a great thing.

Li Jing directly promised Song Wen and others that he would immediately arrange for them to join the army to lead the troops, first serve as the head of the box, and will participate in the battle against Goguryeo. This news made Song Wen and the others very satisfied, and they got the actual position of leading the troops as soon as they came, although the unification of thousands of soldiers was not promoted, but at least this was a manifestation of Li Jing's trust in them. Not to mention. There is also a chance to go directly to the front line, which is exactly what everyone is looking forward to.

After chatting with everyone for a while, Song Wen and the others also saw that Li Jing and Cui Yunqing still had something to say alone, so they all got up and said goodbye.

When they left, Li Jing invited Cui Yunqing into the study.

Even though it's July, the nights are hot. However, Li Jing's study has ice cubes to cool down, so he only feels cool, but he doesn't feel stuffy. Cui Yunqing felt the coolness of this study, and she felt like she was enjoying it.

"Ji Yu, this time the imperial court transferred me to Anton. There are some twists and turns, you must have heard of them, right? "After everyone is gone. Cui Yunqing leaned on the rattan chair, relaxed physically and mentally, but also had a feeling of tiredness.

Li Jing nodded, after Cui Yunqing left Dengzhou, in the past few years, he successively served as the Sima of the march of Ziqing Town, the envoy of the Taining Military Festival, the envoy of the Lingnan East Road, the observer of the Jiangnan West Road, and the envoy of the Zhennan Army. Every time he was transferred, his butt was transferred away before he could sit firmly, and he was transferred like a marquee.

In particular, not long ago, the Zhongwu Army was the envoy of the festival, and Cui Anqian, the former envoy of the court, suddenly stepped down, and then was transferred to the central government to serve as the secretary of the ministry, which also had a lot to do with Cui Yunqing's transfer.

In the final analysis, one of the big reasons is that Cui Yunqing is Li Jing's teacher and Cui Anqian's fellow clan. The more internal reason is that both Li Jing and Cui Anqian are at odds with Tian Lingzi.

Cui Yunqing's transfer from Jiangxi to Anton this time is even more intriguing.

This time he was not transferred as a simple matter, but was suddenly transferred after he had just won a big battle.

At the beginning of the year, when Li Jing conquered western Liaoning, Huang Chao also went north from Guangzhou and went to Hunan.

At that time, Wang Duo, the prime minister who automatically asked for war, became the new commander of the soldiers and horses, replacing Gao Yu's position and commanding the soldiers and horses.

After Wang Duo took office, he went straight to Jiangling, and then from Li Jing, he transferred the former Taining military jiedu to Li Zhuo to serve as the deputy commander, and then used Li to serve as the Hunan observer. Before Li Zhuo arrived, Wang Duo gave 50,000 of the 60,000 troops in his hand to the Li department, which was stationed in Tanzhou, Hunan, and he only led 10,000 people to garrison Jiangling.

Wang Duo valued the Li family, and Li Zhuo was the great-grandson of Li Sheng, the famous general of the Zhongxing Tang Dynasty, but he ignored the defeat of the Li family when he was defeated by Huang Chao when he was in the Taining army. Later, under Wang Jingwu, he was even more similar to a wandering bandit. Everyone treats the Li family as a piece of grass, but Wang Duo still thinks that the Li family is a treasure.

The Li family was stationed in Tanzhou, with 50,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, plus the local soldiers and horses recruited, adding up to 100,000 people.

100,000 troops were stationed in Tanzhou, blocking the road to the north of Huangchao.

But as a result, when Huang Chao led his troops to the city, the Li family, who had boasted to Wang Duo, became a turtle with a shrunken head, and led 100,000 people to hide in the city and did not dare to fight.

In the face of this defeated general, Huang Chao was not afraid at all and stormed Tanzhou. As a result, the Li family, which had 100,000 soldiers and horses, only held out for one day, and Tanzhou made up for the Huangchao to break through. Seeing that the situation was not good, Li succeeded in escaping from the defeated army as he had in Yizhou, but the 100,000 army under his command was killed by Huang Chao, and the 100,000 army was wiped out in one day, and the corpses covered the wide water surface of the Xiangjiang River, drifting north along the Water Margin to the Yangtze River, forming a bloody and terrifying scene.

After Huang Chao achieved the biggest victory since the start of the army, the army was in a general situation, recruiting troops in the Tanzhou area, and it was even better in Guangzhou. Claiming that there were 500,000 troops, Huang Chao ordered Shang Rang to be the vanguard, taking advantage of the victory to enter Jiangling, which was defended by Wang Duo.

Jiangling had already been breached by Wang Xianzhi once before, plundering and killing 100,000 households.

At this time, Gangneung was still a scene of decay. Wang Duo in the city, when the rebel army was coming, was still worried about other things.

Wang Duo served as the commander of all the provinces and camps, and when he was stationed in Jiangling, he left his wife in Chang'an, and then took Fang Mei's concubine in Jiangling City. The result was not confidential and let Chang'an's wife know. Wang Fu is a roaring lion in Hedong, and when he learned that Wang Duo was hiding in the outer golden house, he couldn't help but bring his servant girl with him. So he asked Jiangling to kill the Xingshi and ask for the crime.

Facing the "two great rivals" that are about to arrive. Wang Xiangguo, who had a sad face, said a famous sentence to all the staff: "Huangchao goes north." Madame comes south, how is it good? A staff member jokingly replied: "The lesser of two evils, since Madame is so difficult to deal with, it is better to surrender Huang Chao!" As soon as the words came out, everyone burst into laughter.

After laughing, Wang Duo still has self-knowledge, knowing that there will be no physiology if he stubbornly guards Jiangling. Immediately, thirty-six plans were taken as the upper count. So, Wang Duo divided 3,000 soldiers and horses. handed over to Liu Hanhong, the commander of Wang Xianzhi, who had been captured by Li Jing, and asked this general to stay in Jiangling for him, and then fled with the remaining 7,000 people.

Liu Hanhong was first a small official in Yanzhou, and when he was later ordered to arrest Wang Xianzhi, a salt seller, he fell to Wang Xianzhi instead and became one of the ticket commanders. In the Battle of Songzhou, Liu Hanhong was captured by Li Jing, handed over to the imperial court, and later surrendered to the imperial court. In the past few years, he has become a general under Wang Duo.

Wang Duo ran. The relationship between Liu Hanhong and Huang Chao was not harmonious, and he could not defect to the rebels.

Thereupon. Wang Duo left Jiangling on the front foot, and Liu Hanhong immediately set up troops to rob Jiangling City.

After Liu Hanhong robbed Jiangling City, he set fire to the city, and the people in the city had to abandon their homes and flee to a nearby valley. A large number of people froze to death and starved to death in the wilderness.

Jiangling famous city, after Wang Xianzhi broke through and destroyed the outer city, Liu Hanhong robbed and burned the inner city again, and Jiangling, which was twice designated as one of the five capitals of the Tang Dynasty, Jiangling Mansion, a Jiangling Mansion with nearly one million people, was completely in ruins.

After Huang Chao arrived at Jiangling, he saw that Jiangling was in ruins, so he attacked Xiangyang directly.

In the face of Huangchao's attack, Liu Jurong, the new Shannan Dongdao Jiedu envoy, and Cui Yunqing, the Jiedu envoy of the Zhennan Army who came to support, decided to take the initiative to attack and go south to Jingmen to block Huangchao.

In the first battle of Jingmen, Liu Jurong and Cui Yunqing joined forces to face Huangchao, and Liu Jurong also had 500 Shatuo cavalry.

Using the Shatuo elite cavalry, Liu Jurong and Cui Yunqing set up a plan, first deliberately driving the mounts of the Shatuo people to the Huangchao military camp. Huang Chaobai got five hundred batches of excellent mounts, and he was very happy, and the grass thief generals changed into new mounts one after another. Then Cui Yunqing led a light cavalry to attack the Huangchao camp and led the Huangchao to pursue.

When Huang Chao chased a forest, the Shatuo people in the forest whistled, and Huang Chao and the others lost control of their mounts and rushed directly into the woods. These horses were all mounts of the Shatuo people, and at this time, they listened to their orders and led the grass thieves directly into the woods. Seeing this, the grass army behind rushed into the woods, and as a result, Cui Yunqing and Liu Jurong set up an ambush here. The Tang army fought on both sides, and the Huangchao army, which had already been in chaos, was defeated.

Jingmen victory, Huang Chao's army of nearly 300,000, after the first battle, Huang Chao only fled east with more than 80,000 men and horses.

At this time, Wang Duo had been removed from the post of capital commander due to the defeat of Jiangling, and Cui Yunqing proposed to Liu Jurong to hunt down Huang Chao.

Liu Jurong participated in the Pang Xun Uprising in his early years and was a rebel general, and later surrendered to the imperial court and sealed the town. Previously, Wang Ying rebelled in western Zhejiang, and Liu Jurong participated in the encirclement and suppression of the rebels, and he made great contributions. This year, he has just succeeded Li Fu as the envoy of Shannan Dongdao. Liu Jurong is a good hand at fighting, and he has a clearer view of the situation.

In the face of Cui Yunqing's persuasion, he replied directly: "The imperial court has always liked to disappoint meritorious soldiers, and they can only think of us when the catastrophe comes, and they are kind words and persuasions, and they are high-ranking officials, but once the matter calms down, they will throw us aside as superfluous waste, and even find a person to punish the crime!" It's better to leave these grass thieves, and they can also become our capital for long-term wealth. ”

Liu Jurong refused to chase, but Cui Yunqing had to chase. Because he is the envoy of the Zhennan Army, his territory is Jiangxi. And the direction of Huangchao's defeat and escape is Jiangxi.

It is the responsibility to defend the land, although Cui Yunqing is a civil official, she is not afraid of death.

But as a result, as soon as Cui Yunqing crossed the river, she received an order.

After the imperial court dismissed Wang Duo and the Li family from their official positions, they re-handed over the position of the commander of the Zhudao camp to Gao Yu. At the same time, the imperial court transferred Cao Quanqing, the envoy of the Tianping Army, to replace Cui Yunqing and served as the envoy of the Zhennan Army, and then Duan Yanmo, the commander of Taining, was appointed as the envoy of the Tianping Army.

Cui Yunqing, who had just made great contributions, won a great victory in Jingmen, and annihilated more than 200,000 grass thieves, was transferred to the deputy capital protector of the Anton Metropolitan Protectorate.

Huang Chao was very surprised, and easily got rid of the pursuers, and defeated Ezhou in one fell swoop, and then swept through the fifteen states of Rao, Xin, Chi, Xuan, and She in Jiangxi and northern Zhejiang, and the momentum turned from weak to strong again, and the number of troops reached 200,000 in a blink of an eye.

Huang Chao has 200,000 troops in Jiangxi, and the newly appointed Gao Biao is also mobilizing troops and horses in Zhuzhen.

And this time, all the Dao camps were under Gao Biao, so they sent an envoy to follow Cui Yunqing to Dengzhou, and wanted to transfer Li Jing to lead his troops south to encircle and suppress the grass thieves!

"When, Gao Yu can also mobilize this king!" Li Jing sneered. Starting from Song Wei, to Cui Anqian, to Wang Duo, no one has transferred Li Jing to the successive commanders. Gao Biao also served as the commander of the capital for a short time last time, and he also did not transfer Li Jing. Now, as soon as Gao Biao comes to power, he will transfer Li Jing south.

This is obviously unusual.

Speaking of the war against bandits, Cui Yunqing was also very uncomfortable, and finally won a great victory with Liu Jurong in Jingnan, but Liu Jurong raised thieves and respected himself, but the court transferred him to his post when he was critical. Although more than 200,000 grass thieves were exterminated and captured, in fact, all the people who were coerced by the grass thieves were caught, and the real grass thieves did not kill much. More than 80,000 people in Huangchao fled eastward, but in fact, their strength was still preserved.

"Cui Shangshu in the court sent me a letter," Cui Yunqing took a sip of tea and said in a deep voice, "According to some rumors that Cui Shangshu heard, it was Tian Lingzi who instructed you to go south this time. I heard that many people in the DPRK and China also agreed to this matter. ”

"Lu is back in shape!" Li Jing sighed and said that Lu Xian and Zheng Zheng were ousted together, but now, Lu Xian has regained his appearance and entered the political hall again, but Zheng Xian, a relatively upright person, is still useless. With less Zheng Ji and more Lu Xian, Li Jing will definitely suffer losses in many things.

Cui Shangshu heard the rumors, Tian Lingzi and Lu Xian planned to meddle in Anton's capital to protect the mansion. You now have the territory of the Sixteen Prefectures, and if nothing else, you can destroy Goguryeo within three years and truly master Liaodong. Tian Lingzi was frightened by this, and they planned to transfer you. ”

Hearing the news, Li Jing's heart tightened. This is what Li Jing has been worried about all along. If the court really ordered him to be transferred, what should he do? Resistance, that is, resistance, the consequences are unimaginable.

But it was only for a moment, and he settled down in anger.

Now it is not the beginning, if it was two years earlier, or even a year earlier, the imperial court wanted to issue an order to transfer him, he might not dare to disobey. But now, he sits on the land of sixteen states, the backyard has been leveled, and the foundation has been established. Sitting on the ground for thousands of miles, the people are 5 million, and the army is 200,000. Li Youcheng said no.

"First transfer me to lead the troops south to suppress the bandits, and then send people to take over Ziqing, Zhenguo Army, and Andong Dadu Protectorate, hmph, they are thinking very carefully." Li Jing's eyes were like swords, and he smiled coldly, "It's a pity, I don't listen to the tune, and I don't listen to the announcement!" ”

Cui Yunqing gasped, "Ji Yu, you have thought clearly." ”

Li Jing said seriously: "I know that many people die in my heart, if I retreat, then there will be an abyss behind me, and only my bones will be broken." I won't let them get their way, this is what I manage with my heart, and I will never give it up. ”

"Whoever wants to come and grab it, first asked my town army to sharpen the big sword 200,000!" (To be continued......)
