Chapter 856: Beheading
(It's the end of the month again, ask for a monthly pass, ask for praise!) Book friends who have fully booked, please open the light! )
"In the Qin period, the bright moon and the Han period, the Long March has not been returned. But to make the dragon city fly, do not teach Hu Ma to cross Yin Mountain! ”
Gongsun Lan stood in front of the desk with her hands on her abdomen, lightly opened her lips, and gently recited the poem on the paper before the ink dried, and when she read the seven words of Yin Mountain without teaching Hu Madu, she couldn't help but smile and nodded, her heart was full of admiration. After reading the poem, she was immersed in this ambition for a long time.
"Poetry is good, words are better!" Gongsun Lan praised that this poem by Wang Changling was written extremely heroically, but Li Jing's words were also written quite imposingly, this poem, this word, all reflect Li Jing's mentality at this time. If you don't teach Hu Ma to do Yin Mountain, King Qin's intention to destroy Hu Lu is all on this paper.
Li Jing had just recovered from the heroism at this time, turned his head and smiled: "Alain, you are here." ”
"San Lang's words will be given to me, I treasure it, Wang Changling's poems, with the words of King Qin, are before this expedition, it is of great significance, if I am old and yellow in the future, take this pair of words to the Dengzhou auction house for auction, maybe it can be sold for a hundred and eighty thousand, just to provide for the elderly." Gongsun Lan said with a grin.
"You like to take it, why bother saying such things." Li Jing picked up the pen again, signed the money, and then used the seal. "Tell me, you came here for good news."
"Well, there are a few pieces of news, and all of them are good news. First of all, your old friend, the North Korean queen Zhang Yingying has just arrived in Dengzhou, and she should be in Tianjin tomorrow. She brought 200,000 stone of grain, in addition to 20,000 troops, which is good. That's good for you. As soon as I heard that you were going to roll up your sleeves and personally recruit 200,000 people who went south. I'm afraid you'll lose. Immediately, he brought the most elite sea army under his command to help, and this affection is really amazing. ”
Li Jing chuckled and shook his head, over the years, he and Zhang Yingying sometimes only saw each other in two or three years, and both parties were busy with their own goals, and their feelings were a little light. Zhang Yingying led troops to help this time, which was completely unexpected by Li Jing. "Didn't that princess of Mandala just become the queen of Silla, and now the situation in Silla should be even more tense. Why did she leave everything behind at this time and come here? ”
This shows that, in fact, in her heart, her daughter's father is more important than her kingdom. By the way, Zhang Yingying came with your daughter Aixi, and I have a portrait of little Aixi that came up below, the six-year-old Princess Qinghai, Zhenti is very cute, and like her mother, she is naturally beautiful. And she was born with a queen spirit. ”
"Did Ai Xi bring it too?" Li Jing had a smile on her face, this daughter. He hadn't seen it since he was born. Speaking of which, this is his Li Jing's first child, and he is actually six years old in a blink of an eye. Looking at the portrait of her daughter, that beautiful little Lori, Li Jing couldn't help but feel happy spontaneously.
Hey, Zhang Yingying is so for him this time, then he owes her a lot of affection.
After a long time, Li Jing folded up the small portrait and put it in his arms and continued to get down to business.
"If there's any good news, don't sell it, just say it."
"Okay, first of all, since His Highness decided to conquer in person, all the towns that are friendly with my Qin Domain are worried about the strength of the thieves, so they have taken the initiative to send troops to the north to help His Highness. Up to now, your old man in Tianping Town has pulled out 10,000 soldiers and horses, your Kang Shibo in Yicheng Town has also transferred 5,000 soldiers and horses, and your Xuanwu Xin's predecessors have also pulled out 5,000 people to come. Xin Daxia even sent his two proud disciples and subordinate mountain monks and patriarchs to bring eighteen kendo masters to be your personal guards. In addition, your cheap brother-in-law Yang Xingmi sent 15,000 people to come, and Qian Biao sent 10,000 people to come. In addition, your old friend, the North Korean queen Zhang Yingying, personally led 20,000 people to come. At present, there are several other of yours, Zhang Rui, Yu Qiu, and Yu Gui, who are also sending 5,000 men and horses to sail north. Well, I calculated, there are already 65,000 reinforcements arriving now, and there are 15,000 more on the way, that is, we haven't started yet, and now we have 80,000 more soldiers and horses. In addition, with the grain and grass sent by the towns, it adds up to 500,000 stones, and even the grain and grass have been completely solved in our battle this time. ”
Gongsun Lan said with a smile: "It seems that marrying more rich and powerful wives and concubines is really not ordinary." ”
Li Jing also laughed at her words, but in fact, Li Jing has indeed built a huge network of interests now. Whether it is the three towns of Tianping, Yicheng and Xuanwu Henan, or the three southeast towns of Fujian, Lingnan East and West, or the two towns of Huaixi and Zhendong in Jiangdong, and even the town of Qinghai on the Sanhan Peninsula, they have all formed a close alliance of interests with the Qin Domain. Under this alliance led by Li Jing, everyone is prosperous and lossy. Especially Li Jing's Qin Domain, Qin Domain's strong, they will also get more benefits, and if the Qin Domain is damaged, they will also suffer huge losses.
The marriage relationship between them and Li Jing is actually just a thread, and the real alliance is an alliance of interests between each other.
Li Jing decided to personally recruit 200,000 Hu troops, and even recruited township soldiers and young student soldiers, which seemed to the towns outside as if the Qin army had reached a very critical time, so they rushed to support. This was out of Li Jing's surprise, because Li Jing still had more than 100,000 soldiers and horses in Huaisi Heji at this time, and for Li Jing, the Qin army had not yet reached the last moment, so he did not borrow troops at all. If it really came to that point, there was no need for Zhuzhen to say it himself, Li Jing would definitely have sent someone to borrow troops a long time ago. But in any case, Zhuzhen's dispatch of troops this time also made Li Jing very happy. Not only because of the addition of 80,000 soldiers and horses and 500,000 stones, grain and grass, but also because from here, Li Jing saw that this alliance had gradually stabilized, and even exceeded his expected results.
"It seems that we have to wait a little longer for the date of our troops, let our troops go to Ulju first, and we will wait for reinforcements from these towns to gather in Junduguan, and follow up as a reserve army after being reorganized here." The arrival of these new troops made Li Jing also have to adjust his plans.
"What's the good news?"
All of a sudden, there were 80,000 more soldiers and 500,000 stone grains, and Li Jing was in a good mood.
"And the good news is that our decapitation operation has already paid off!" Gongsun Lan replied.
"Oh. Killed whom? The corners of Li Jing's mouth lifted. The smile on his face was even stronger.
The decapitation plan is planned. It was a plan by Li Jing to cooperate with the Northeast War situation, and the plan was to send special combat personnel to go deep into the feudal towns and assassinate important target figures. Its purpose is to disrupt the towns through this action, and the ultimate goal is to make the towns chaotic and have no spare strength to interfere with and destroy the situation in the northeast of the Qin army.
To put it bluntly, this plan is actually muddying the waters. Muddy the water, everyone in the province stared at Qin Fan.
"There are many target people to kill, but the most important one is Wang Jingchong, the envoy of Chengde Town, who was poisoned by our people just last night!"
Wang Jingchong, Li Jing's first enemy in Hebei, since the Qin army entered Hebei, has fought with the Qin army many times, and now occupies Ding, Zhen, Shen, Yi, and Zhao five prefectures. Although he was repeatedly defeated by the Qin army, he was never defeated. The strength is still strong, he connects Weibo Town in the south and the Shatuo Army in the west, which can be described as a thorn in the eye of the Qin army. In the current multi-faceted battle in the northeast of the Qin army, as well as the upcoming battle of Daibei, Chengde Town is the most unstable factor, and this guy is very likely to be unwilling to be lonely again when Li Jing loses Daibei.
Therefore, when he heard that the beheading plan was able to kill this guy, Li Jing was a little unbelievably surprised.
"How is that possible?"
"It is indeed difficult to assassinate Wang Jingchong, in this operation, our people planted more than a dozen good hands in Zhenzhou, but in the end he was still unable to prevent it, and finally fell under the poison of our thousands of machines. Wang Jingchong is already dead and can't die anymore, but now Chengde Town is not mourning. Gongsun Lan said proudly. There are only a thousand days to be a thief, and there is no thousand days to prevent thieves, when the Supervision Department decided to eradicate Wang Jingchong at all costs, he still couldn't hide after all.
Wang Jingchong's son is only nine years old now, but his two younger brothers are concubines and have a humble status. Chengde Town is not mourning, this seems to be the beginning of a good show. Li Jing was really overjoyed, Wang Jingchong was only in his thirties, and he didn't take over the throne for a few years, it was when he was energetic and in the prime of life, but he was suddenly poisoned and died.
Gongsun Lan shook her head, "The Wang family is the Uighur Absi clan, this family has strong internal cohesion, and because it was married to the princess of the Tang royal family, it acts with a strong Han family style. At the beginning, Wang Jingchong's father died early, and he was young, and finally the family decided to replace his uncle from Jiedu, and then when his uncle was seriously ill, Wang Jingchong was already old, and after his uncle's death, he handed over the position of Jieshi to Wang Jingchong. Now Wang Jingchong's son is young, and there are three people who are most likely to inherit the throne of Jiedu, the first is Wang Jingchong's son-in-law, the second is Wang Jingyuan's uncle and son-in-law, and the third is Wang Jingchong's brother-in-law. It is very likely that Chengde's throne will be succeeded by Wang Jingchong's uncle's son-in-law, and that he will eventually be Wang Jingchong's son-in-law in the future, which is in line with the inheritance tradition of the Uighur Absi people. ”
Li Jing remembers that in history, Wang Jingchong died very early, and the successor to his position was his son-in-law who was later renamed Wang Rong, who seemed to have succeeded to the throne at the age of nine, but he had stood tall in the Hebei Domains for many years, and he was a young man with great means. Among the towns at the end of the Tang Dynasty, Wang Rong ruled Chengde Town for almost forty years, which is quite rare, but between Liang and Jin, he only relied on swaying from side to side to exist for so long. In general, this should be a person who has some means, but not many real talents.
"I think Wang Qi is the most likely to take over the handsome position, don't forget, Wang Qi is not only Wang Jingchong's son-in-law, but also has a marriage contract with Li Keyong's daughter, and he will undoubtedly get the support of the Shatuo people if he takes over the handsome position." Li Jing said.
"Do you want to send someone to cut this kid down and eradicate the roots?" Gongsun Lan said unceremoniously.
Li Jing shook his head: "It's just a child, why be afraid." Wouldn't it be better for us if Chengde really made an eight-year-old child handsome? As soon as Wang Jingchong died, Chengde Town was no longer afraid in a short period of time, at least this time they sent troops to Daibei, and they didn't have the energy to provoke us. ”
"Who else did you do?"
"I also killed some of them, but they were all small people, and they couldn't be put on the stage. The only one worth mentioning is Huainan Gaoyu, we sent the strongest swordsman to him and seriously wounded him. ”
"Oh, Master Yi was seriously injured to the point of Gao Yu, the Imperial Servant of the Falling Eagle, and he really lived up to his expectations." Li Jing laughed.
Gongsun Lan was puzzled: "According to the report below, Sect Leader Yi was originally able to kill Gao Biao, but when he broke into Gao Biao's mansion, he only stabbed him with a sword, severely wounding him but not killing him. ”
"Well, this is my order to Master Yi."
"Why?"
"Because Gao Yu can't die yet!" Li Jing took a long breath, "Now Gao Yu is old, mediocre and old, believes in Shinto, obsessed with Dan Dao immortality, alchemy, and has long since lost the courage of the past, and has no momentum as a famous general." However, the shadow of the tree, the name of the person, and Gao Yu are still not to be underestimated, and we have to prevent him from suddenly shaking his spirits again one day, so I sent Master Yi to hurt him, so that it will be difficult for him to regain his strength. But we can't kill him right away, keep Gao Yu here, he is just a mediocre person, but he can use his residual power to guard Yang and Chuzhou, and maintain the current stable situation in Huainan. But if Gao Biao dies, those fierce generals who are afraid of it, as well as Yang Xingmi, who is now rising in Huaixi, will not be able to help but compete for the position of overlord of Huainan. Since we can't afford to look south at present, it is the best choice for us to let Huainan maintain the current situation. Therefore, seriously injuring Gao Xiao, but letting him continue to hang his life, instead of killing him, this is the most beneficial choice for us! ”
"Yang Xingmi is very respectful to King Qin now, do you need to take such precautions?"
"The so-called loyalty is nothing but a lack of bargaining chips for betrayal. Do you really think that if Yang Xingmi had enough strength, he would still bow down to me? You have seen my jade-clawed white-feathered sea holly and silver wolf howling moon, raising this kind of birds of prey, one thing is very important, you have to feed them, but you can't overfeed them, too hungry them, will make them fierce, will hurt the master. But if you overfeed them, they won't listen to you anymore. Yang Xingmi Qian Biao and them are all agents of the southeast that we have supported, for them, we must give them benefits, so that they will help us do things, but we can't give them too many benefits, otherwise, once they are full of wings and their minions grow, they may no longer listen to us, and even hurt us. In everything, planning ahead is the king! ”
"I see!" Gongsun Lan nodded, her eyes showing admiration. (To be continued......)
