Datang: Eight-year-old general

Chapter 564 Horrible Gossip
Hearing the shouts of the generals below, Fatty An nodded in satisfaction, "Very well, it seems that you are all loyal ministers of the Tang Dynasty, which makes me very pleased."

"However, beheading treacherous evil is a matter on the side of the Qing emperor. You need to go to the people to perceive the "truth" and arouse the people's "approval". After the people's "approval", the general will lead the army to Chang'an at the request of the people."

Fatty An wouldn't be foolish enough to raise troops immediately.

Instead, hide for a while.

Only after using public opinion to arouse public anger, will they raise troops.

During this period of time, he can also deploy Pinglu, Fan Yang, and Hedong for defense.

He couldn't just walk away, and the lair behind him would be taken over by Jiao Tongguo.

In this case, if he can't attack Chang'an, he will have no way to retreat. Fatty An will not do such a thing of ruining the boat.

Now he has 30 elite soldiers in the three places.

It does not include the auxiliary soldiers (soldiers who guard the city and logistics in various places) and the few elite soldiers who resisted the Tong Kingdom.

As early as the time when Jiao Tongguo invaded, Fatty An had never sent out his elite soldiers, all of them were local auxiliary soldiers.

Otherwise, how could Jiao Tongguo have so easily defeated Anton's Protectorate, invaded Pinglu, and threatened Fatty An's lair?

"Father, the child has something to say, please listen to it." At this time, An Qingxu took a step and bowed.

In front of Fatty An, there is no theory of father and son, son and father, everything must follow Fatty An's rules.

Even if it's his son, it's the same.

Fatty An frowned upon hearing this, "Speak."

An Qingxu thought carefully and said, "Now that Gao Tongguo is pressing on Pinglu, my boy thinks that he can send [-] soldiers to resist the footsteps of Jiao Tongguo, or beat back Gao Tongguo, so as to confuse Chang'an."

"It proves that my father came out of Beijing not because he had other ideas, but because he cared about the people of the three towns, so he acted recklessly,"

"Let Chang'an let down his vigilance and buy time to complete his father's plan."

"Furthermore, this will also let the people of the world know that the loyalty of the father will not be confused by them after we raise the "Slay the Evil, the Qing Emperor's Side"."

Speaking of this, An Qingxu explained, "This is all a child's suggestion. If there is something immature, please don't blame my father."

"You're very good." Fatty An said softly in front of him, "Xu'er, it seems that you have grown up, and you are very happy for your father."

This sentence made An Qingxu flattered, and immediately showed a submissive look, "In front of father, a child will always be a child."

It's just because he knows Fatty An too well, if he expresses his unruliness.

In the next moment, Fatty An will teach him how to behave.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Fatty An reprimanded softly, "All the sons of my An family should be like fathers, stand upright!"

"Since Xu'er, you proposed to stop Jiao Tongguo, then my father will give you this opportunity to lead an army of [-] to Pinglu, and beat Jiao Tongguo hard!"

The words that seemed to be a lesson, not only did not scare An Qingxu, but was overjoyed, and quickly knelt down on the ground, "My son, thank you for your father's teaching, and I will definitely make that anointed Tonguo pay the price!"

"Go, I will wait for your news for my father." Fatty An waved his fat hand.

Although he has many sons, there are really few who can catch his fancy.

Regarding these grown sons, he also knew in his heart that it was somewhat unlikely that he would inherit his position in the future.

So he has put his heart on his underage son, hoping that he can become like An Lushan.

Then his Anjia can be passed on.

Looking at An Qingxu who was leaving, Fatty An narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at An Shouzhong who had been silent all this time, "Zhonger, you will immediately report back to Chang'an about your father's fight against Tongguo."

"Be sure to let everyone in Chang'an know, understand."

"Father, don't worry, the child will take care of it right away." An Shouzhong didn't procrastinate at all, and immediately turned around and walked away.

Back in Fan Yang, An Shouzhong's heart also changed slightly.

In addition to being extremely loyal to Fatty An, he had already started to find another family for himself, and he could clearly sense that Fatty An's attitude towards him had changed.

This is a dangerous signal for An Shouzhong.

Next, after An Lushan gave a few more orders, he got up and left.

This also shows that the three towns under his jurisdiction have set off huge waves.

First, it was rumored that An Qingxu led the last [-] generals to a life-and-death battle with Gao Tongguo in the land of Pinglu ahead!
It was also rumored that Fatty An returned to Fan Yang because he was bullied by the court treacherous and wanted to kill Fatty An, so Fatty An had no choice but to flee back to Fan Yang.

Claiming that even if he dies, he will die on the battlefield against the enemy.

The people in the three places of Fanyang were touched, and Fatty complained about it.

Later, it was reported that the courtiers in the court, who slandered Tang Wang Li Yi heavily, revealed the corruption of the court today.

As a result, the people in the three places, as well as the people in the nearby state capitals, secretly called Li Longji a faint king, and was controlled by powerful officials.

No wonder Datang was invaded by enemy countries.

In this way, three months passed, and rumors were flying all over the Tang Dynasty, which aroused the anger of the people and began to hate Chang'an Chaotang.

But on the cusp of this storm, it was revealed that Li Longji sent fresh lychees from thousands of miles away in order to make Yang Yuhuan smile.

It directly caused the people in Chang'an City to secretly call Yang Yuhuan a demon concubine, a disaster to confuse the emperor.

Some people even said bluntly, killing the demon concubine, clearing up the traitors, and focusing on the imperial court.

Naturally, these public outrages could not escape Li Longji's ears.

Right now, I am in the Daming Palace, furiously afraid of the dragon case, "Yuan Chengfeng, check it out, let me check carefully, where are these rumors coming from!!"

However, Yuan Chengfeng suddenly knelt down on the ground and said bitterly, "Your Majesty, there is nowhere to investigate this."

"Every state in the world has different versions of gossip, and it is impossible to tell where it came from."

"If you can't find out, you have to find out!" Li Longji was in a rage, and his originally muddy eyes turned red at this moment.

Glaring at Yuan Chengfeng, he shouted, "If you can't find out and don't give an explanation to the world, do you know the consequences!"

"This has already shaken the foundation of my Tang Dynasty, and it will cause civil rebellion all over the world!!"

Originally, Li Longji began to follow Yuan Chengfeng's plan, replacing Li Yi's name, to win the hearts of the people, and let Datang Zhiming stay close to him Li Longji.

Unexpectedly, the plan could not keep up with the changes, and before actual actions were taken, the sudden rumors aroused public anger.

He dragged Li Longji into the quagmire.

This made Li Longji very aggrieved and even more anxious.

"Your Majesty, although I can't find out the source of the rumors, I found that these rumors are all biased towards King Tang and Anlu Mountain!"

"But now that the King of Tang is not in the Tang Dynasty, the rumors and rumors are absolutely beneficial to An Lushan, so I think that Your Majesty should beware of An Lushan."

Yuan Chengfeng also knew the importance of the matter, and told about the weirdness he discovered.

"You mean, this rumor came from An Lushan?..." Li Longji frowned, and looked at Yuan Chengfeng questioningly.

Yuan Chengfeng shook his head, "I'm not sure, but it definitely has something to do with An Lushan."

"If you're not sure, make sure." Li Longji's tone was full of dissatisfaction.

And he frowned deeply and said in doubt, "Although An Lushan broke out of the court, it is obvious to all that he resisted and anointed Tongguo in Andong."

"Now, not only have Pinglu recovered the lost territory, but they have also repelled the soldiers of Tongguo to the middle of Anton. Why do you think he did this?"
