Chapter 731： Song Wensong goes north again!

The Battle of Tanzhou ended in a way that was unexpected to everyone. To the Northwest Army, to Song Naifeng, the battle was a disastrous defeat. However, what is very interesting is the same battle. In Jiangnan and the Dakang court, many ministers thought that this battle was Lu Zheng's defeat!

Because after the battle, Tanzhou fell and Song Naifeng's soldiers pointed directly at the capital. In the face of this situation, Song Wensong immediately went to the palace and wept bitterly, begging Emperor Xinde to allow him to go to the capital in person and defend the capital in peril!

Emperor Xinde was silent, and for a long time he raised his hand and said: "Song Aiqing, now the court is the prince's governing country. I have been restless recently, and I can't make a sudden decision about this. If you have any doubts, you should ask the prince! "

Prince Long Zhaohuan dragged Song Wensong into the East Palace and said, "Wensong, what are you going to do in the capital at this time? Did you go to the capital to share the fault for Lu Zheng? You, let you stay in the capital, you are not sure yet. If you can win, now that the capital is bound to fall, why do you want to go back again? What do you think in your mind?"

Song Wensong said: "His Royal Highness, I won't hide the matter from you anymore. Do you think about what we have now? Above the court, the Lu family covered the sky with one hand. The old fox, Lu Shan, brought the Su family, the Chen family and the Gu family together. The prime ministers are all from the Lu family, the superintendents of the imperial court, and even the Jiuqing of the Six Departments, your Highness can't mobilize!

Where should we start to change this situation? I think we must first have soldiers. If we don't have our own strength, we can't reverse our current weakness in any case! "

Song Wensong paused, and continued: "This time in the Battle of Tanzhou, Lu Zheng was defeated on the surface, but Lu Zheng caused heavy damage to the Northwest Army. The titans of the Northwest Army, Chuan Shanyue, almost lost his life in his hands. Therefore, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Lu Zheng's withdrawal from Tanzhou was intentional.

The Northwest Army wants to smash him, but he doesn't want to fight the Northwest Army! He regarded the army under his hand as a baby bump, and let the Northwest Army occupy Tanzhou and then attack the capital. Isn't this logical?

If we defend the capital again, it happens that Song Laosan will give him a wave of cannon fodder. When the Northwest Army has captured the capital, and tens of thousands of people will die, Lu Zheng will make a comeback. At that time, his role with the Northwest Army will be the same. Completely reversed!

The Northwest Army bullied the major generals and widows and was unable to defend the line of defense for more than a thousand miles from Bingzhou to the capital. After the Northwest Army occupied the capital, the Northwest Army became major generals and widows. They came from the northwest and were unpopular in the Central Plains. Why would the people in the Guan be willing to be ruled by the Northwest Barbarians? Since then, Lu Zheng will have more knowledge to do, Your Highness! Once that step is reached, we can no longer intervene in the north, and in the south of the Yangtze River, we can't move Lu Shanchang. You, the prince, will fall into complete passivity, don't you think so? "

Long Zhaohuan raised his eyebrows, and his lips lifted to speak. Obviously Song Wensong's words were in his heart. He also understood that the reason Song Wensong insisted on going to the North was not to guard the capital at all, but to think. Do your best to bring out the soldiers from the capital!

Song Wensong needs soldiers, and Long Zhaohuan needs soldiers. The two are now in an alliance relationship. If they can hold tens of thousands of elite soldiers in their hands, at least speaking in Jiangnan will have more weight. Even if the Lu family has to deal with Long Zhaohuan and Song Wensong Disadvantages, first of all they have to weigh the strength they possess.

However, Long Zhaohuan also had other concerns, that is, he was already weak in Jiangnan, if Song Wensong left, what would he do?

Besides, Song Wensong is not an easy person, this is not a role that is easy to control! Long Zhaohuan was worried that once Song Wensong came to the north to work out the Mingtang, he would fly away from the sky. In that case, Long Zhaohuan might not only have not earned himself an ally, but instead made himself an enemy.

He pondered for a moment, then suddenly laughed and said, "Song Aiqing, I said you, sometimes it’s a wise one who gets confused for a while. If Lu Zheng loses the capital, he will have to come back to punish the law with his father’s edict. Can the earth escape our palms?

And at this time, you passed, and the battle has not settled. If you follow Lu Zheng's words, he will push all the sins on you. Wouldn't you pay your wife and break the army? In that way, Lu Zheng will be able to get rid of the relationship, and instead you will fall into an extremely passive position! "

Song Wensong sneered and said, "His Royal Highness, do you still know what role Lu Zheng is? He may have hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in his hands now. If you look at the world, if you want to say who is the most powerful, once the Northwest Army is defeated After he was defeated, Lu Zheng became more powerful in the world!

Lu Zheng did not rebel, but he was stronger by all the rebel kings. Your Majesty, how do you think your Majesty can let him fall by that time? Is it possible to cut off his head? Or do you want him to give away two hundred thousand soldiers and horses? "

When Song Wensong said this, he sighed dejectedly, and said, "His Royal Highness, in fact, my trip to the Northland is destined to suffer! I have never taken advantage of Lu Zheng, but I know I have to go. Ah! Because for us, being able to have tens of thousands of horses is fundamental!

Lu Zheng wants to use me to get rid of sin. In fact, it is not at all risk of him getting rid of sin, right? "

Long Zhaohuan was a conspiracy and undecided person. After hearing Song Wensong's words so miserably, he also felt sad for a while. For so many years, he has not had many comfortable days from Qin Wang to crown prince. In comparison, Lu Zheng started from a concubine and climbed up step by step, but he was flat. Whether it is prestige or social status, he was actually much higher by his prince. Who can balance this kind of thing?

Long Zhaohuan and Lu Zheng also had many fights, and the result was very similar to what Song Wensong said, that is, he basically didn't take advantage of it! The accumulation of such things in his heart made him feel aggrieved in his heart, so the hatred in his heart is really hard to resolve for a while!

"Well, since this is Song Aiqing, I will let you go to the capital. Remember, you must be careful. No matter how you want to bring people back, you can rest assured, you will have a place when you bring people back to Jiangnan! You are a master of war! You must have military power, and we will have many ways to make you have power in the future!"

Long Zhaohuan gave Song Wensong a promise on the spot. At this time, Song Wensong was no longer thinking about this intrigue in Jiangnan. He got the support of Long Zhaohuan. Even if he rushed northward, day and night, he waited until he arrived in the capital. At that time, Lu Zheng's army had already withdrawn from Tanzhou, crossed Tongzhou, and approached Cao Weiming's back.

There is no leader in the capital, Wu Liewen, Xing Zheng and several people are arguing. I don’t know if the matter is over. What should everyone do? Should we cooperate with Lu Zheng to raid Cao Weiming and put Cao Weiming to death, or should we stand still and defend ourselves? Capital.

Song Wensong rushed to the capital and just got a handwritten note from Lu Zheng. Lu Zheng's letter is very simple. He is the chief commander of Pingjing Road and takes over the military affairs in the north. He ordered all the defenders in the capital to attack quickly and cooperate with him to attack Cao Weiming. , Completely defeated and defeated Cao Weiming's tens of thousands of troops! In fact, this is Lu Zheng's order. Song Wensong read the handwritten script and said, "What are you still hesitating? The chief governor's order is the military order. The military order cannot be violated. Those who violate the order must be engaged by the military law! Cao Weiming launched a fierce attack!"

Song Wensong gave an order and didn't need to rely on others. He personally put on his armor and led out all the tens of thousands of people under his hands. It is said that after Cao Weiming got the news of the Battle of Tanzhou, he was still secretly happy!

He thought that the Northwest Army won a big victory, and Lu Zheng was driven away. He also thought about how to contain Lu Zheng for some real benefits! And at this time, Song Wensong went out to fight, but seeing that Song Wensong was so brave, he personally led the army and went straight to Cao Weiming's army account, brave and brave!

Cao Weiming was not surprised and rejoiced when he saw this battle, so he calmed the generals under his hands and said: "Look, the army in the capital has all come out. This shows that Lu Zheng is extremely critical. This is his plan to encircle Wei and save Zhao!

He used the crowds of the capital to contain us. He could escape by himself. In this case, Lu Zheng's few remnants will be defeated. It is important for us to win the capital. Now we work together to clean up the shrimps and crabs of Song Wensong!

What Cao Weiming said, the people under his hand really felt that it was a matter of a while, and they would immediately assemble the army one by one, and when the two sides opened up their positions, they had to fight each other!

At this moment, there was a long and deep horn, and only heard the scout report: "It's not good, Lord, it's not good! An army is coming from behind us!"

Cao Weiming was taken aback, frowned and said, "What? Where's the army from? What kind of **** army?

"Yes... It's a great army, under the banner of landing, the cavalry rushes to the forefront, and it is a heavy cavalry in iron armor!"

As soon as Cao Weiming heard of the heavy cavalry, he couldn't help but the back door was tight. He immediately panicked. Time was too late. The soldier with the Lu character flag could only be Lu Zheng, and Lu Zheng was almost the same when he came out from Tanzhou to Gyeonggi. It's time!

Cao Weiming quickly stepped out of the camp and looked behind him from a distance. He saw the iron knights coming from behind to see that they were in an orderly formation and did not appear to be defeated. In addition, their banners were also very clear and plain. The word "Lu" is written on it! Cao Weiming is too familiar with this banner, and this is undoubtedly Lu Zheng's army.

"This... how is this possible? This... this is a trap! No good, we are facing a flanking attack. At this moment, there is no other way. If our military order is passed, we will immediately retreat and retreat to Bianzhou!"

After all, Cao Weiming is a hero. Seeing this, he knew that it was impossible to fight with him today. He immediately decided to stay in the green hills without fear of firewood, so he would retreat first.

It's just that his retreat is like a mountain of defeat. How can he retreat under the attack of two armies? Moreover, Lu Zheng has tens of thousands of cavalry. The cavalry charge and crush the infantry. Cao Weiming's military talent is really embarrassing at a critical time...

Cao Weiming was defeated, and the 60,000 army only escaped with more than 10,000 people. This battle suddenly weakened the pressure on the periphery of Gyeonggi. Tan Lei, who had already moved south quickly, heard the news and was completely stunned...
