Originally, Fu Cunshen, who was ordered by Jun, chose to choose strong and strong from the refugees who settled in the Jianghuai area. The farmer who was not only a man in his family, was willing to join the army calmly recruited 4,000 people to return to Xiaqiu, Yanzhou to report to Li Tianqu.

When he met his lord again, Fu Cunshen immediately accepted his new official appointment: he was appointed as the commander of the Yanei Infantry Army, and was in charge of the Baotao Capital tribe in the personal army.

He is also a famous general who is good at governing the army. Compared with Wang Yanzhang, who is more suitable for charging, Fu Cunshen has a more strategic overall view. According to historical records, he uses troops to "know the situation and change, march and out the army, strict laws, make decisions and win without regrets"... Like Ge Congzhou, he is also a lineup of generals who are qualified to enter the highest level of the Five Dynasties period, and can be compared with famous generals of all dynasties.

Li Tianqu would not doubt Fu Cunshen's loyalty at all, and he could feel at ease with the most elite direct subordinates under his command. Even in this era, the strong and weak branches would never be able to do so, but Li Tianqu also had to ensure that Longxiang, Tiger Wings, and Baotao's direct troops were the strongest and most numerous troops, and the military power must be controlled by a trustworthy confidant like Wang Yanzhang and Fu Cunshen.

As for the Changjian Army led by Wang Chongshi, Chai used the vanguard Army under his command...especially the Kaidao Army and other Yashi War Department members led by Liu Zhijun, they still had to supplement their organization from the Tianping, Huainan, and the surrendered troops in several towns. Li Tianqu had already curbed the betrayal of other generals as much as possible in terms of the treatment of the emperor and the changes in the military system, and the possibility of mutiny by the rest of the troops. Of course, for certain people, they had to make other preparations...

After the storm caused by the Yicheng army, Li Cunxiao, who was fleeing south, still trained troops under Li Tianqu's rule, and enriched the people and advanced together. After a while, news came after Li Keyong's army returned to Taiyuan:

Li Cunxiao died after all, and was still sentenced to death by a tragic death with five horses dismembered.

Li Keyong's reaction was indeed as Li Tianqu knew. Not only did he seem to have a gap with his adopted sons, but he was also depressed and left his hands alone. He even did an act of killing the generals and shaking the morale of Hedong's army during a banquet...

Thinking of Li Cunxiao, the drunk Li Keyong still couldn't help crying. At that time, Kang Junli, who was named the governor of Zhaoyi Army by Li Keyong after he defeated Meng Fangli, advised Li Cunxiao to be ambitious to kill, so why should the lord be sad? Just one sentence, it angered Li Keyong and was given poisonous wine to kill Kang Junli. The position of governor of Zhaoyi Army was also taken over by another senior Xue Zhiqin, another member of the Hedong Army.

In order to betray Li Cunxiao in Hedong, Kang Junli, who was not guilty, was easily poisoned by his lord... This naturally caused great panic among the senior generals within Hedong. Even if Li Keyong could use his majesty to intimidate the generals, he did this matter too willful and recklessly, and dared not accuse his lord. His adorable father was unclear in rewards and punishments, and he killed his old generals without knowing their past. However, the generals in Hedong were panicked and frustrated and panicked spread among the military brigades. The negative impact caused by Li Cunxiao's back seemed to continue within the Hedong army.

Therefore, as the arch-rival enemy of the Jin army in Hedong, Zhu Wen was invading the west and was in a state of depressed will and was adept at killing generals. Li Keyong, who was not in the mood to launch any military operations...

"Zhu Zhen, Li Tangbin, the two of them... aren't dead yet?"

After learning about the military situation in the northwest, Li Tianqu couldn't help but murmur, because according to the battle report he received: Zhu Wen's vanguard was Zhu Zhen as the chief and Li Tangbin as the deputy, and defeated Li Maozhen and Li Zhouyi's coalition forces in Guoxian, Sanyuan, Liyuan and other places, and killed 50,000 enemy troops in Meiyuan to throw away their armor. Li Maozhen was suppressed so much that he could not raise his head. He had to retreat to Fengxiang, Qizhou, the vassal state capital, and defended the city to try to survive Zhu Wen's continuous attacks like a scattered sea of ​​force...

Li Tianqu was thinking about defeating Li Maozhen and Li Zhouyi's vassal coalition forces. Those battles were originally defeated by Liu Zhijun, Kang Huaiying and other generals who were now turning to his command. However, the fate of some famous generals on Zhu Wen's side has obviously changed.

However, Zhu Zhen initially assisted Zhu Wen in establishing the military system, and has always been the chief hero of the Xuanwu Army. He is also the most brave general. Because of his high prestige in the army, he has long been very powerful... With Zhu Wen's temperament, he must have been suspicious of Zhu Zhen's rebellion. Li Tianqu estimated that even if Zhu Zhen and Li Tangbin died for each other in historical records, the incident was somewhat accidental... But since Zhu Wen had already become suspicious of Zhu Zhen, some things would still happen even if they were delayed.

In this way, Zhu Wen personally led several elite troops and began to launch a protracted and fierce attack on Fengxiang, Qizhou. Li Maozhen struggled to resist and ate all the food and grass. It was Li Tianqu who was resting and recuperating. During this period, when Li Keyong asked to send troops to cooperate in capturing Li Cunxiao, nearly a thousand people starved to death in Fengxiang City every day...

The phenomenon of eating people in Fengxiang, Qizhou, began to become more and more common. The market sells human meat per catty worth 100 yuan and dog meat worth 500 yuan. However, the bitter emperor Li Ye grinds beans and wheat to drink porridge every day, and uses dog meat to fill his stomach. After all, Li Maozhen knew very well that the Emperor of Tang Dynasty could not fall into his hands and was starved to death. However, he racked his brains to supply his daily so-called "Imperial Food". Even the emperor was hungry and had no meals. It is conceivable that the tragic situation of the military and civilians in Fengxiang City was a sign of it.

I couldn't stand it anymore, so I had to surrender.

Li Maozhen then sent an envoy to negotiate, promising to kill more than 20 eunuchs including Han Quanhui, who tended to support him against Zhu Wen, and presented Li Ye. He, Li Maozhen, coerced the emperor to be named King of Qi, and Fengxiang, the so-called Qi army in Longyou, expressed surrender to Zhu Wen, and only wanted him to stop when he saw the good news. At this point, he could lead the army to retreat after taking over the sages, so as to win the Qi Kingdom as a separatist force, and could still continue in the northwest territory...

...However, after hearing the subsequent development, Li Tianqu's expression changed and cursed in his heart that Zhu Wen, the old fox, was now going to merge and expand his territory, and had also changed his strategy in his strategy...

Because Li Tianqu soon learned that Zhu Wen agreed to Li Maozhen's request, but just as the Qi army opened the city gate and sent out the emperor's carriage... Because there were too many court officials and palace servants, Zhu Wen sent troops to guide him, he suddenly launched an attack and ordered the ambush to suddenly enter Fengxiang City and quickly seize the city pass.

Li Maozhen's army guarding the city was caught off guard and endured the cold and hunger all day long. He had already put a few taels of meat on his chest and his back. Where did he get the strength to fight with the soldiers and horses under Zhu Wen's tent, which were like wolves and tigers?

In this way, Zhu Wen led his troops to easily occupy the Fengxiang Army's vassal government office, captured Li Maozhen alive and captured him in front of him. He went back on his word, but he scolded Li Maozhen with righteous words, "I have repeatedly bullied the emperor and rebelled against the emperor and rebelled against the common people. It is a crime that cannot be punished. Since the late emperor gave me the name of Quanzhong, he should be loyal to the emperor and serve the country. How can he indulge you, such a traitor, go on to go on again!"

So, Li Maozhen was ordered to be killed on the spot by Zhu Wen, and he was not let go as he did. After Zhu Wen usurped the Tang Dynasty and established the Later Liang Dynasty, he was able to establish a country in the northwest territory. He only called King Qi, but set up all officials, and the ceremonial guards were the same as those of the emperor. He even lived until the Later Tang Dynasty destroyed Liang, and accepted Li Cunxu as the King of Qin, and even lived until the age of 69...
