Fugongyou quickly dispatched his long-sword army to come back for reinforcements. He was ambushed by Zhang Zhenzhou just halfway through, and his general Zuo Youxian was shot to death on the spot.
Fugongyou had to personally lead his troops to return for reinforcements. As soon as he moved, the combined forces of Li Jing and Li Daliang stabbed him in the butt.
Fu Gongyou was forced to stick to Wuhu.
Ren Gui, the pacification envoy of Henan Province and the general manager of Xuzhou, received an advance order from Li Xiuning at this time and led Xuzhou soldiers and horses to join the battlefield and enter Yangtze City.
Fugongyou was suddenly surrounded from all sides and was attacked crazily by Li Jing, Li Daliang, Ren Gui, Su Dingfang, Xue Wanshu, and Kan Leng, and the territory he occupied was being compressed crazily.
Ten years ago, Kan Leng took the lead in attacking Danyang. After learning that Fu Gongyou had not only killed his sworn brother Wang Xiongdan, but also killed his sworn brother Wang Xiongdan's family, Kan Leng became angry and crazy and massacred the city.
Fugongyou, as well as all the civil and military family members and clan members under Fugongyou, as well as everyone related to Fugongyou, were all massacred.
According to military documents, Kan Leng raised his sword in Danyang City for three days without leaving an inch of blood.
Since Li Shimin witnessed the cannibal demon Zhu Can's massacre of the city and the cruelty of cannibalism, and wrote to Li Yuan to prohibit the generals of the Tang Dynasty from mass murdering the city, this was the first time that someone broke through Li Yuan's prohibition and began to massacre the city on a large scale.
So the impact is extremely bad.
If Kan Leng hadn't continued his crusade against Fu Gongyou and impeached him, the memorial would probably have filled the Tai Chi Hall.
However, this won't last long.
Fu Gongyou's living space has been compressed, leaving only Wuhu and some areas around Wuhu.
I believe that it won’t be long before Fu Gongyou will be completely defeated.
At that time, both the government and the opposition will be able to impeach Kan Leng without any scruples.
Although Kan Leng had Li Yuanji's support behind him, Kan Leng clearly violated Li Yuan's prohibition. The civil and military officials in the entire court were agitated about this, and Li Yuanji could not stop him.
The reason why Li Xiaogong mentioned Kan Leng was because he was afraid that Kan Leng's matter would cause too much trouble and Li Yuanji would be implicated.
"Are you talking?"
Seeing that Li Yuanji was speechless, Li Xiaogong couldn't help but urge him.
Li Yuanji rubbed his face, trying to wake himself up, and said in a dumbfounded voice: "I think he is a talent..."
Li Xiaogong didn't wait for Li Yuanji to finish his words, then puffed his beard and said with a glare: "There are so many talents. If you don't recruit those who can only make meritorious deeds but not cause trouble, how can you recruit some who can only make trouble but not make meritorious deeds?"
"
Li Xiaogong seemed very dissatisfied with this, not only talking about Kan Leng, but also reflecting on Yu Wenbao.
Because under Li Yuanji, these two were the only ones who had gotten into trouble, or were causing trouble.
Li Yuanji glanced at Li Xiaogong and became speechless again.
Li Xiaogong just stood and talked without pain in her back.
Who doesn't like talents who can only make meritorious deeds but never get into trouble?
Li Xiaogong likes it, Li Shimin likes it, Li Jiancheng likes it, Li Yuan likes it, and he also likes it.
The problem is that this kind of talent was either recruited by Li Yuan, rounded up by Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng, or simply did not grow up.
He could only rely on his foresight to dig out some talents from the hidden corners that Li Yuan, Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin could not see, or recruit these problematic talents.
If he doesn't use these problematic talents, he won't have many people to use.
"What's that look in your eyes?"
Li Xiaogong probably drank too much and became very sensitive. When he saw Li Yuanji's eyes were wrong, he immediately started to scream.
Li Yuanji said angrily: "It doesn't matter what look I have. What's important is that cousin, you are a full man but you don't know a hungry man is hungry."
Li Xiaogong was stunned and said in confusion: "You mean, you can't recruit better talents?"
Just when Li Yuanji was about to speak, he saw Li Xiaogong suddenly rushed towards him, patted him on the shoulder, and said very generously: "Then you should have told me earlier, I have a lot of things under my hands.
Anyway, I may not need it in the future, so I’ll give it to you later.”
Li Yuanji's heart moved, he thought for a while, and then asked tentatively: "For example... Li Jing?"
Li Xiaogong's eyes suddenly widened, and he said with a surprised look: "Your eyes are very poisonous. You can actually tell that Li Jing is a talent."
Before Li Yuanji could say anything, Li Xiaogong shook his head and denied what he said, "No, no, Li Jing is not a talent, but a great talent."
Li Yuanji muttered in his heart a little funny.
As long as you are not stupid, you can see that Li Jing is a talented person.
Although Li Jing's current position is not high, it is not a problem of Li Jing's ability.
It's a matter of Li Yuan's attitude towards employing people.
Li Yuan likes to favor nepotism. Although Li Jing is also named Li, he has nothing to do with Li Yuan's Li.
Li Yuan couldn't let him do his job alone, so he didn't have much chance to shine.
However, Li Yuan paid great attention to some of the military memorials written by Li Jing to Li Yuan and adopted almost all of them.
The strategy of Ping Nanliang and taking over Jiaozhou was carried out by Li Jing who first sent a letter to Li Yuan, who then sent it to Li Xiaogong, and Li Xiaogong led Li Jing to implement it.
To be precise, in a series of wars such as Ping Nanliang and Shuojiazhou, Li Jing was the planner in the general direction, and Li Xiaogong was the planner and executor in the small direction.
Li Jing's ability is great enough, so even if Li Yuan is suppressing him, the light cannot be concealed.
The reason why Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin didn't expect Li Jing to extend an olive branch was not because Li Jing was inferior to the people in their house, but because Li Jing was now Li Xiaogong's person.
Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin were unwilling to offend Li Xiaogong, a brother who could influence half of Li Tang.
"You said Li Jing's name right away. Have you already been thinking about Li Jing?"
Li Xiaogong suddenly looked at Li Yuanji with interest and asked.
Li Yuanji didn't know whether to admit it or not.
Li Xiaogong winked and said: "You are still hiding from me, but I can tell you that you are not only thinking about Li Jing, your eldest brother and Erlang are also thinking about Li Jing.
It's just that because Li Jing is under my command, they can't take action to rob people."
Li Yuanji immediately nodded and admitted: "I have indeed been thinking about it for a long time."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Li Xiaogong is obviously a sensible person and sees this matter very clearly.
Therefore, Li Yuanji should not hide it anymore, otherwise it will appear very hypocritical.
"Hahaha...you have indeed been thinking about Li Jing for a long time."
Li Xiaogong laughed and said, "Since you care about him so much, then from today on, Li Jing will be yours. I remember that you have the commander-in-chief of the Third Army in your residence. There is no suitable candidate yet, right?"
From now on, let him be your commander."
Li Yuanji looked stunned.
Is it really... just... so generous?
If I want it, just give it?
No conditions at all?
No big bump at all?
"However, I can only send a letter to Li Jing, asking him to join your staff. As for how to transfer Li Jing back from outside, you still have to convince the third sister.
Now Li Jing is under her control, if she doesn't nod, Li Jing won't be able to leave."
Li Xiaogong didn't care about Li Yuanji's mood and continued to talk.
Li Yuanji suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
Although Li Xiaogong nodded, Li Xiuning's side was not a problem at all. As long as Li Xiaogong's letter was sent, Li Jing would immediately become the commander-in-chief of the house.
but……
Li Yuanji felt that Li Xiaogong didn't really want to send Li Jing out.
Although Li Xiaogong had a smile on his face and looked bright, Li Yuanji could feel a trace of reluctance and sadness from his words.
Li Xiaogong was obviously unwilling to give away Li Jing, nor was he willing to leave the battlefield completely and become a general who could only help Li Yuan guard the gate.
"I accept my cousin's offer, but my cousin should keep it."
Li Yuanji struggled for a while and finally made a decision.
Although he does not attach as much importance to friendship as Luo Shixin, he still writes about friendship in his heart.
Li Xiaogong has not done anything to feel sorry for him so far, nor has she ignored him when he came to ask for help, or made many requests to him. Instead, she has done her best to help him.
Naturally, it would be difficult for him to take away Li Xiaogong's love when Li Xiaogong was reluctant to let her go.
Anyway, he was on good terms with Li Xiaogong, and Li Jing could do things for him both under his command and under Li Xiaogong's command.
He also asked Li Xiuning to help win over Li Jing.
Therefore, Li Jing could not escape his grasp.
Li Xiaogong was obviously stunned for a moment, and then he scolded her, "A woman's kindness is hard to achieve great things. If you consider my mood, don't you want Li Jing?"
Do you think I can hold Li Jing in my current situation?
I have resigned from the position of Chief Manager of Jingzhou, and my control over Li Jing is no longer as strong as before.
As time goes by, it will become weaker and weaker.
When the time comes, your eldest brother and Erlang will definitely take action to win over Li Jing.
If you want Li Jing then, you will have to fight with your elder brother and Erlang.
Do you think that with your status, you can compete with your eldest brother and Erlang?"
Li Yuanji couldn't tell Li Xiaogong because Li Jing couldn't escape from his grasp, so he could only sigh and said: "I just don't want to see your brother, who is so powerful in the south of the river, gradually lose his ambition."
Ambition."
Li Xiaogong was stunned again, his fingers trembled slightly, and he sat silently on the couch and drank.
Li Yuanji didn't speak again and drank with Li Xiaogong.
After another bottle of wine, Li Xiaogong suddenly muttered angrily, "If you really don't want me to lose my ambition, you should fight for it and grab it. Only if you fight for it and grab it, can you help me.
.
Otherwise I am destined to become a mediocre person..."
Li Yuanji opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word.
This is the second time Li Xiaogong has instigated him to fight for that position.
Compared to the first time, this time there was obviously a bit more sincerity.
Because he didn't say what he was fighting for or what he was robbing, nor did he mention anyone's name.
This is him subconsciously protecting himself.
"I won't fight for it, nor will I rob it. But I will let my cousin pick up his ambition."
Li Yuanji looked at Li Xiaogong and said slowly.
Li Xiaogong snorted softly, as if he saw smelly dog poop, and muttered with disgust, "Idiots are just talking...women's kindness..."
After finishing muttering, he flopped down on the couch and fell asleep.
I don't know if I'm really sleeping or if I'm pretending to be sleeping.
Li Yuanji stood up slowly, took away the wine jar from Li Xiaogong's hand, and covered Li Xiaogong with a blanket. Looking at the rough breath coming out of Li Xiaogong's nostrils and the blowing of his beard, he said quietly: "That position is not as good as you can imagine.
He is so good at the exam, but not all emperors are like my father."
After Li Yuanji said this, he straightened up and walked out slowly.
Not all emperors are like Li Yuan, who can boldly lay down their power and enjoy eating, drinking and having fun without worrying about wasting the government.
Not all emperors are like Li Yuan, who can have two capable sons, one capable daughter, and a group of capable nephews who can help him conquer a huge territory and govern a powerful empire while he is eating, drinking and having fun.
