$L_1$ and $L_2$ are two common tangents to two circles. If $L_1$ touches the two circles at $A(1, 1)$ and $B(0, 1)$ and $L_2$ touches the two circles at $C\left(\frac{3}{5}, \frac{4}{5}\right)$ and $D\left(-\frac{1}{5}, \frac{7}{5}\right)$,then the equation of the radical axis of the two circles is
