"Okay, what you said makes sense, but if there is no Khitan to disrupt the situation in the Central Plains, how can Li Xingyun rise? Will he continue to be a puppet emperor like his father Zhaozong?"
Li Maozhen, who did everything a rebellious official and traitor should do, had no respect at all for the deceased Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. After all, even when Emperor Zhaozong was still in power, Li Maozhen was not necessarily so polite.
"With me here, Li Xingyun will only be the emperor he wants to be, not the emperor others want him to be, not even Yuan Tiangang!"
Jiang Yunqing raised his hand and clenched it suddenly. Countless branches moved automatically without wind, and the leaves rustled. The sound was not loud, but full of momentum and infinite confidence, as if what he was clenching was not his fist, but the whole world.
At the same time, in Youzhou City, on the four eaves of the city tower, there was a man in a bamboo hat. The figure was covered in black robes, making it impossible to distinguish between men, women, old and young.
They stand on the corners of the eaves, with their hands behind their backs, their chests crossed, their heads on their heads, or their arms hanging naturally. Their postures are different, but they all have one thing in common. They all seem to be walking on flat ground.
On the roof of the building, bad handsome Yuan Tiangang stood with his hands behind his hands and looked up at the endless night sky. The sky was full of stars, but the one he paid most attention to was undoubtedly the tiny purple star.
Li Xingyun rested his head on his hands and lay on the tiles on the roof with his legs crossed, right next to Yuan Tiangang.
Different from the solemn atmosphere created by the people on the eaves and Yuan Tiangang, Li Xingyun swayed gently on his tiptoes and hummed a little tune, looking extremely relaxed.
"Tomorrow at Hai hour, the four of you will lead the bad guys and assist the Youzhou cavalry in cutting off the Khitan's food and grass!"
Yuan Tiangang didn't move at all, and a hoarse voice came out from under his cold mask, low and unmistakable.
"yes!"
The four people on the cornice no longer maintained their personalized postures, turned around, bowed towards Yuan Tiangang, and responded in unison.
There were male and female voices, both of them strong and powerful, but it was impossible to tell the difference between old and young, nor could one tell who was male and who was female.
"Aren't you worried, Your Highness?"
Yuan Tiangang lowered his head slightly, looking at Li Xingyun who was leisurely and relaxed and asked.
"What are you worried about? If worrying is useful, General Zhou's frowning brows and wrinkles can already strangle every Khitan army to death."
Li Xingyun paused on his dangling toes, turned to look at Yuan Tiangang and answered.
"Your Highness is right!"
Yuan Tiangang nodded. He quite admired Li Xingyun's calmness. He looked somewhat similar to that kid Jiang Yunqing.
"Senior brother said that we must despise the enemy strategically and pay attention to it tactically!"
Li Xingyun put down his hands, propped up half of his body and leaned against the eaves, shaking his head and plagiarizing what his senior brother had said.
Of course, Li Xingyun was named, and it was just a quote at best.
"Strategic contempt, tactical attention..."
Yuan Tiangang muttered Li Xingyun's words in his hoarse voice. The more he muttered, the more he felt that there was a profound truth in this sentence, and then he asked aloud: "What's the explanation?"
"Um……"
Li Xingyun pondered, quickly retrieving what Jiang Yunqing had said to him in his mind, organizing his language and explaining: "Strategic contempt for the enemy means that from a long-term perspective, we must have full confidence in our victory. Heart, all enemies are giant insects in the paper lake, and we can definitely defeat them."
As he spoke, Li Xingyun raised his finger and pointed at the vast camp outside Youzhou City, then withdrew his hand and made an arrogant gesture of wiping his neck.
After finishing the action, he continued: "As for paying attention to the enemy tactically, it means that in any action against the enemy, whether it is easy or casual, we must be cautious and treat it as the strongest opponent. There can be no sloppiness or taking things lightly, and only in this way can we defeat all opponents."
After hearing this, Yuan Tiangang knelt down on one knee towards Li Xingyun, "Your Highness is wise, I admire you!"
"Get up! Don't flatter me. These are what my senior brother said. I'm just using them for my own use."
Li Xingyun waved his hand impatiently and said angrily.
"By the way, what on earth did you and my senior brother talk about? Why was it so mysterious? He didn't tell me, and you didn't tell me either."
Before Yuan Tiangang could answer, Li Xingyun changed the subject and asked.
It is impossible to continue talking about the topic just now. What to say next, the senior brother has not said anything, and it is even less possible for him to know.
If we continue talking, it is not Yuan Tiangang who has nothing to say, but Li Xingyun.
"His Highness will know after the Khitan is defeated!"
However, Yuan Tiangang did not give an honest answer, as if he had an occupational disease, and continued to give up.
Seeing that Yuan Tiangang didn't want to say anything, Li Xingyun didn't force him, so he asked instead, "Are you not planning to defend this Youzhou City?"
"Why did Your Highness say that? Didn't I just send bad guys to assist the Youzhou cavalry in cutting off the Khitan's food and grass?"
Yuan Tiangang looked up at Li Xingyun and asked in confusion.
"But in the past few days, bad guys have been secretly organizing people to flee south. Isn't this preparing to abandon the city?"
Li Xingyun stared at Yuan Tiangang with cold eyes, and his tone suddenly turned serious: "Yuan Tiangang, think about it before you answer, don't deceive the emperor!"
Just like Yuan Tiangang gave unquestionable orders to the four bad guys just now, Li Xingyun's words are also unquestionable.
Because, Li Xingyun is the king, and Yuan Tiangang is the minister!
At this moment, Li Xingyun seemed to have the majesty of a superior person.
Although it was not enough to put pressure on Yuan Tiangang, when Yuan Tiangang looked at the majestic and solemn young man in front of him, he had lost the immaturity that a young man should have and had become somewhat royal.
I don't know whether it was emotion or relief, but Yuan Tiangang was in a trance for a moment.
"Yuan Tiangang!" Li Xingyun raised his voice.
"this……"
Yuan Tiangang came back to his senses, hesitated for a while, raised his head and lowered it slightly. He seemed to have made up his mind and replied: "Yes!"
Seeing that Yuan Tiangang was finally honest, Li Xingyun continued to ask: "Is it my senior brother's idea?"
"yes!"
Yuan Tiangang didn't hesitate this time. Anyway, he was talking about Jiang Yunqing, not him.
Hearing this, Li Xingyun's expression moved slightly. Knowing that this idea came from his senior brother, he knew that it was right, but he still couldn't bear it: "Once the Khitans break through Youzhou City, all life in the Jin Kingdom will be destroyed. Can't we work hard? ?”
"The Khitans are coming fiercely. If the Jin Kingdom was in full swing during the period of Li Keyong, Li Cunxu, or Li Siyuan, they would not be afraid of the Khitans. But at the moment, the Jin Kingdom is in internal turmoil and fighting overtly and covertly. It is basically impossible to defend Youzhou City."
"We should take advantage of the trend, rely on the Khitan's attack, gather together the large and small forces of the Jin Kingdom, and then counterattack, and finally take over the Jin Kingdom!"
After Yuan Tiangang roughly explained the real overall plan, he saw that Rong Liyuan's expression was still a little hesitant, and he urged in a hurry: "Your Highness, you can't be kind to a woman!"
