The Nanfu Army attacked Yuzhou and laid down Cao Weiming's lair. This time the dispatch of troops was not sudden, and it was not decisive. At a critical time, Lu Zheng decisively attacked Wei and rescued Zhao, giving Song Wensong great support.
Cao Weiming Daying, when he heard the news of the fall of Yuzhou, he was so angry that he vomited old blood. He couldn't help but beat his chest and feet, and yelled: "Lu Zheng, kid, you really want to stop me from coming back? I, Cao Weiming, have never treated you all these years. Bo, when you were in distress, I, Cao Weiming, tried my best to help you. Now that the child has gained the way, I will avenge my revenge and want to cause me to die. It is really ungrateful!"
Cao Weiming’s nonsense basically refers to the recapture of the capital when Lu Zheng was the chief of the march. At that time, Cao Weiming and Zhao Zhongqian were his men. At that time, they had a lot of moths. Lu Zheng used a clever trick to mobilize the two of them. Only then succeeded in winning the battle.
Now Cao Weiming insisted that he had helped Lu Zheng in the first place, and he had to say that he was shameless and invincible. However, the current situation, no matter how much he scolds, the situation is already like this, he has no retreat, and can only attack the capital desperately.
The battle in the capital was extremely fierce. Although Lu Zheng’s encirclement and rescue of Zhao dealt a huge blow to Cao Weiming, it also made Cao Weiming determined to fight Song Wensong to the end. The two sides competed desperately, and the situation was precarious for both sides.
In the account of Cao Weiming, Zhao Zheng of the Zhao family offered a plan: "The prince, now the king of the plan should repair Shandong and Huainan Road, telling them that this is a good opportunity to attack Jiangnan.
The Jiangnan Nanfu Army has just been formed, and the number one in the Nanfu Army will force Liu Song away from Jiangnan to the hinterland of the two rivers. At this time, the Jiangnan is empty. If the Liaodong Army can take advantage of the situation to go south, and then Huainan Road can take advantage of the opportunity to cooperate, Lingnan Road can take advantage of the fire, and Jiangnan can do what! "
Cao Weiming clapped his hands and said, "Okay, I will edit the book right away. Lu Zheng is not righteous to me, so I am ruthless! The Liaodong Army must have been eyeing it!"
Cao Weiming walked to the front of Zhao and said: "Zhao Zheng, you and I, the Zhao family and the Cao family, are one body. These years, we have shared honor and disgrace. Please rest assured that you are not a person who does not care about friendship. When this battle is over, we will win. After I get to the capital, I will definitely reward the Zhao family again when I look back!"
Zhao Zhengdao: "The prince is polite. I am willing to saddle the prince. My prince, there is something in the current situation. I wonder if the minister should say something wrong?"
Cao Weiming said: "Brother Zhao Zheng, Gu and you are brothers. Is there anything you can't say in person? Brothers, but it doesn't matter if you say it, just listen to it with all your ears!"
Zhao Zheng paused: "Lord, look at the current battle. If we can win, it must be a tragic victory! We will put all our worth on top of this battle, even if we win the capital, say Uncertainly Lu Zheng's oriole was behind and suddenly launched a surprise attack on us. I'm afraid that the capital will not be able to hold it again by then!
Once that happens, we lose the foundation of Yuzhou, I am afraid the situation will be even more precarious! "
Cao Weiming was stunned, his face turned extremely ugly in an instant, it can be said that all the hairs on his body were erected, and the whole person was directly exploded.
Immediately he couldn't help asking: "Brother Zhao, for the current plan, will the plan be settled?"
Zhao Zhengdao: "Lord, we are suffering, in fact Song Wensong is suffering even more! As far as I know, Song Wensong has lost money in order to invite Lu Zheng to send troops. He abolished all his cavalry, and sold 20,000 horses. The horse was sent to Jiangnan and used this as a bargaining chip for Liu Song's 50,000 horses.
It is not an exaggeration to say that Song Wensong put all his old books on, desperately defending the capital. At this moment, they are the same enemy, and we continue to attack with half the effort. It is better for the prince to seek peace with him first, and the two sides sign a contract, and then the prince retreats to Bianzhou. We have taken root in Bianzhou. As a result, the strength of both parties can be temporarily preserved.
On the Bingzhou side, the Song family will continue to attack the Bingzhou. It is difficult for Song Wensong to take care of both. In a short period of time, no cavalry in the capital can be mobilized, and it will inevitably not develop.
We rest for a few months, and when the troops are strong and the horses are strong, you will send troops again. Song Wensong must not have the ambition to fight as hard as today. When we take the capital, the loss is not great, and the dominance of the North will be just around the corner! "
Zhao Zhengkan talked freely, and he was justified and well-founded. Many generals and counsellors on the scene nodded in agreement and highly appreciated. Cao Weiming's heart was also very moved. Indeed, now that this battle is so far, it is hard for both sides to afford it.
Either party may only win a tragic victory in the end. Once it is a tragic victory, today, there are a lot of warriors and the surrounding forces. Even if one party wins the capital, it will be extremely difficult to hold the capital. Can be cheap to third parties.
Cao Weiming retreated first and then moved in. With the help of the Cao family, he first gave Song Wensong a fatal blow in Bingzhou. After turning around, Cao Weiming attacked again. The probability of taking the capital is much greater than it is now!
Cao Weiming paced back and forth, feeling a little undecided in his heart. He pondered for a long time. He said: "Why is it that the lone initiative asks for peace, and Song Wensong is not here to ask for peace? Is it possible that I, Cao Weiming, is afraid that he will not succeed?"
Zhao Zheng laughed and said: "This is precisely Song Wensong's difficulty. Song Wensong is so famous, he thinks of himself as a loyal minister of Dakang! Because of this, he can open water transportation and buy food and supplies from Jiangnan. If he took the initiative to ask you for peace, wouldn't he also become a gangster? Once Jiangnan turns his face, Song Wensong might really be in a desperate situation, he won't be able to argue!"
Zhao Zheng paused and said, "That's the case. You can blackmail this person, Lord. We can pretend to be defeated, but we have to let Song Wensong give some blood and let him make up some silver, and then we will give up.
Looking back, the prince has won the silver tael and can take the opportunity to retreat calmly without hurting the prince’s strength. Isn’t it beautiful? "
When Zhao Zheng said this, Cao Weiming was overjoyed, laughed, and immediately said: "Okay, immediately repair the book to the city, I want to have a good talk with Song Wensong! After all, this kid is too young, the so-called world's most powerful general is nothing more than that. People in the world are afraid of him, and I, Cao Weiming, are not afraid of him. If he hadn't found Lu Zheng and the villain to join hands with me, he would have become a bone in the mound at this time!"
In the capital, Song Wensong has stayed up for more than ten nights and has not fallen asleep. Even though he has an iron body, he looks a little haggard now.
Qi Yuanzhi walked in lightly from the outside. He looked around, then walked straight to Song Wensong, and said a few words in his ears. Song Wensong raised his brows and said, "Is this true?"
"This is absolutely true. The current situation is indeed a step back and open up the sky for both parties! Cao Weiming is going to retreat now. He must not dare to go to Yuzhou, because Yuzhou is still in the hands of Liusong, the defense of Yuzhou. Ruggedness is almost the same as that of Beijing. Where can Cao Weiming be tossed?
Cao Weiming retreated to Bianzhou, and his control of Lianghe became weak. The key is that we have a chance to breathe. After the three generals have accumulated enough strength, the battle in Bianzhou will not be as passive as today! "Qi Yuanzhi said.
Song Wensong sighed lightly, and said, "It's the best for this and this! It's just Cao Weiming who is very treacherous and greedy for money. I'm afraid he is not so good. Let's talk about what conditions did he offer. ?"
Qi Yuanzhi said: "Cao Weiming doesn't ask for much, as long as the three generals give him one hundred thousand taels of silver for the army! This money..."
"Cao Weiming is really deceiving people so much that he dared to ask us for money? Huh, what kind of thing is he, our Northwest Army will be defeated by him? I think Cao Weiming himself is unbearable for a battle. He wants to retreat but he deliberately deceives us. , This money definitely can't be given!" General Li Wenwu said loudly.
For the Northwest Army, honor is greater than the sky. If Song Wensong really relied on giving money to seek peace, it would be really unacceptable. First of all, a group of brave and arrogant generals would not accept it!
The chaos in the temporary account turned into a pot of porridge, and Song Wensong was a little bit embarrassed. At this moment, Qi Zhiyuan yelled: "You will shut me up, how can you know the strategy of the three generals?
You only know one, but you don't know the other. Then Cao Weiming is now homeless, tired like a dog who lost his home. As the saying goes, the rabbit bites people in a hurry. Although the soldiers of the three generals are unparalleled, they are unwilling to take the lives of the Northwest brothers and let the mad dogs bite them!
Therefore, the three generals are scheming, on the one hand, let Cao Weiming retreat, Cao Weiming must retreat to Bianzhou, Bianzhou originally belonged to the Zhao family.
Cao Weiming could call the wind and call the rain in Yuzhou because he relied on the benefit of his family, but after arriving in Bianzhou, will the Zhao family follow Cao Weiming's wishes? Looking back, the two sides must be in conflict. Zhao Chongqian and Cao Weiming were officials in the same dynasty. At a critical moment, Cao Weiming brazenly sent troops to the two rivers, causing the Zhao family to suffer heavy losses. The rift between the two families can no longer be repaired. When Cao Weiming sets up camp in Bianzhou, his time of death will come. Turning back, the three generals will lead his troops to cut off his head and collect the one hundred thousand taels of silver lent to him with interest and profit. Come back, then that will be a lot of money! "
Qi Zhiyuan talked eloquently, and the following counsellors and generals were speechless. For a while, everyone bowed down and said: "The three generals have sought lofty distances, and I can't wait far enough. I wait for everything to be dispatched by the generals, and there will never be any more. Second words!"
Song Wensong was in a good mood, and Qi Zhiyuan was even more admired. He didn't know what Qi Zhiyuan said before, but now that Qi Zhiyuan said it, he knew that there are still so many contradictions within Lianghe that can be used.
Now for him, as long as Cao Weiming retreats and the capital is relieved, the difficulties in front of him can pass. As for the war in Bingzhou, there are 30,000 elite soldiers in Bingzhou, and it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. As long as the capital is released, Song Wenjie and Song Wenhua will be two. Brothers are bound to panic. Song Wensong can even go to the front line of Bingzhou in person at a critical time. As long as he shows his face, the Song family army will definitely not be able to fight again, and the danger of Bingzhou can be solved!
Immediately, Song Wensong no longer hesitated, and handed over one hundred thousand taels of silver to Qi Zhiyuan, and let him be solely responsible for discussing with Cao Weiming about retreating.
In this way, Cao Weiming retired after sending troops for 33 days and besieging the capital for 17 days. His army did not dare to retreat to Yuzhou, but went straight to Bianzhou. Cao Weiming suffered heavy losses in this battle, but The elite is still there, and there are still more than 60,000 soldiers in his hands.
In comparison, Song Wensong has only more than 30,000 people left in the capital. The long-term absenteeism between the two sides killed tens of thousands of lives. Blood covered the walls and stained the moat. The shining capital was in the evening. It looks extremely mottled and broken, just like Dakang's country, it is already riddled with holes.
The war in Jiangbei came to an end. Lianghe and Guannei had been fighting fiercely, but in a blink of an eye there was peace. At this time, it was the Battle of Binzhou that caught the eye.
In the Battle of Bingzhou, the 30,000 horses of the Bingzhou Army were all the elites left by Song Wensong, and Song Wenjie, Longyou, who claimed to have attacked the Bingzhou with 150,000 horses, even if Song Wenjie had an exaggerated element, Song Wenjie led at least one hundred thousand troops to take the Bingzhou. .
Longyou has always been a barren land. Because of its barrenness, it is difficult to raise soldiers. So the wealth that the Song family can accumulate over the years is actually not rich, and it is far from competing for the world.
Song Wenjie’s one hundred thousand soldiers and horses represented almost all the wealth he could get. Because for him, Bingzhou couldn’t get it, so Longyou was completely locked in it, and Longyou lost communication with Guanzhong and even Liaodong. For Longyou, this is absolutely unacceptable.
Binzhou is easy to defend and difficult to attack. The battle between the two sides is very fierce. After twelve days of fighting between Binzhou, the situation has not yet reached a victory or defeat.
Standing under the city wall, Song Wenjie looked at the city wall of Bingzhou. He felt agitated. He said, "The third man, how can he train such a capable general?
What was Li Yuan at the beginning? In the Northwest Army, he was just a captain, and now he is still a fine, guarding Bingzhou, but he doesn't move. Hey, Er Deng and Li Yuan are both familiar with each other. Does this guy really have three heads and six arms? "
According to Song Wenjie's words, many generals in the Northwest Army were blushing, and they felt dull. This time the battle of the combined state was different from previous wars. Both sides knew each other well and were very familiar with each other. Even the attire of the soldiers is similar, because both sides are actually Northwest Army.
The most powerful in the Northwest Army is Song Wensong, and now the brothers Song Wensong and Song Wenjie are finally completely torn apart. Naturally, this battle must be the winner! Song Wenjie represents the Song family, but Song Wensong now claims to be a loyal minister of Dakang. In the family, Song Wensong is naturally rebellious. But at the national level, the Song family and Song Wenjie became rebels instead.
Under such a delicate situation, it is conceivable that the Battle of Binzhou has received attention! Today, the Battle of Binzhou has been fought for so many days, and the time for the final battle has gradually matured...
"General, Cheng Ting is willing to fight today! Although Bingzhou is strong, but we have been violently attacking the city for so many days, Li Yuan is already at the end of the battle? Our preliminary estimate is that the Bingzhou army should be more than half of the dead and injured in the past ten days. !
They totaled only 30,000 horses, and now there are only more than 10,000 people in their hands. We are sure to win this battle. If we win the Bingzhou, Song Wensong will no longer escape. It just so happened that we went south in a rush to attack the capital and establish immortality for the general. Achievement! "
Cheng Ting was born tall and mammoth, with a beard, and looks very rough and bold. These words from his mouth are really arrogant and dry, making people feel that blood is boiling all over.
Song Wenjie was originally a man of great ambition and talent. When he heard Cheng Ting's words, he immediately became excited and said loudly: "Okay, General Cheng is so proud. This general will give you 20,000 horses. If you can succeed in one blow, he will give you a head start. Work!"
Cheng Ting got 20,000 horses. He immediately counted the troops and blew the horn. Then he personally led and prepared a siege cart, a catapult, and fifty crossbows. The siege soldiers were in the front, the crossbowmen were in the back, and there were more With the aid of archers, they are heading towards Bingzhou City!
On the head of Bingzhou City, the soldiers were passionate, and the wood rolling stones greeted them from top to bottom. The battle between the two sides started from the beginning of contact, and the battle was fought with blood and blood. When the two sides were fighting anyway, they suddenly heard only the sound of a cannon. Then he heard the screams, and the east gate of the state suddenly opened. A sturdy horse rushed out of the gate. Look at this sturdy cavalry, all the laurel horses, all in light cavalry attire, the headed man is tall and majestic. , Holding the Euphorbia in his hand, who is it if it is not Song Wensong?
Song Wensong rode on the horse, rushed to the front, pointed the halberd at the enemy formation, and shouted: "Song Wensong is here, who can fight to the death with me in the formation!"
After Song Wensong said, people had already entered the enemy's line, and the cavalry behind him immediately entered the siege army's camp!
This change can be described as hastily. Cheng Ting was only thinking about siege of the city, never dreaming that the soldiers in the city would dare to fight outside.
Look at this sturdy cavalry led by Song Wensong, everyone is like a **** descending to the earth, they come and go like the wind, and they are killed in a flash, and their lives are all harvested wherever they go.
It turns out that since Song Wensong's relief from the capital, he immediately found a few horses to go straight to Bingzhou day and night, and there happened to be thousands of cavalry left in Bingzhou. He immediately summoned the cavalry and led them to kill directly.
Song Wensong was the number one military commander in the Northwest, and he was like a **** of war in the Northwest Army. He slayed out, first of all, it was a huge shock. Moreover, he sent troops by surprise. Cheng Ting was not able to adapt and was immediately beaten.
Many people in the army shouted: "The three generals are here, the three generals are here!"
When many people heard Song Wensong's name, they immediately lost their helmets and abandon their armor. Song Wensong shouted again: "Surrender and avoid death. If you dare to defeat the recalcitrant, kill you without mercy!"
He surrendered to avoid death. Many soldiers assumed that even if they lost their weapons and squatted down with their heads in their hands, Cheng Ting was too late to stop them, but all soldiers who were still able to fight were immediately swept and killed. Cheng Ting saw that the soldiers were defeated. Instead, he immediately ordered Mingjin to retreat, but where did the legs of the siege soldiers under his hand be faster than the cavalry under Song Wensong?
Seeing that they could not escape, the soldiers all lost their weapons and threw themselves into the business. Cheng Ting had a total of 20,000 horses, but 10,000 directly surrendered. He fled all the way, and in the distance Song Wenjie recovered and came to rescue him. Song Wensong had already retreated in gold!
In this battle, Song Wensong won a complete victory. Not only did he win the battle, but he also collected 10,000 more horses out of thin air, which greatly boosted the morale of the state...
