The battle of Bingzhou finally came out after nearly a month. Song Wensong made a decisive decision to abandon the city to break through. His choice of direction to break through was also very decisive. He went straight to the east and went straight to the Liaodong Plain.
Song Naifeng's strategy for him was to encircle the three and one, and the direction of his attack was to keep the east. Song Wensong broke through from the east, and he covered and killed from behind. This way, Song Wensong naturally suffered heavy losses, but Song Wensong was definitely a ruthless character.
Since he decided to break through, he decisively gave up everything he had. The so-called pain of a broken arm is nothing more than waiting for him. The heroic figure, killing and decisive, is absolutely unambiguous at the critical moment.
Song Wensong let 20,000 horses block the pursuit. He only led a small number of capable men and horses, fleeing day and night, ran for eight hundred miles a day, ran three batches of horses, and hurried to Liaodong within one day.
Lu Zheng had long arranged for Chen Lizhong in Huangzhou on the Liaodong border. After Song Wensong arrived in Huangzhou, he dismounted and gave all his arms to Chen Lizhong. There were more than 30,000 soldiers who had escaped from Liaodong. There were also horses. About forty thousand horses. Song Wensong offered all of these people and things with both hands, and he himself embarked on the road to Shengjing for the first time under Chen Lizhong's arrangement.
Song Wensong is a wise man. He knows that everything is the same. His relationship with Lu Zheng is called brothers on the surface, stabbing knives behind his back. In contrast, he stabbed Lu Zheng the majority of times.
For so many years before, Song Wensong was totally dissatisfied with Lu Zheng. Lu Zheng is a bastard, and he is also a bastard. Why is Lu Zheng able to get better and worse. At a young age, he became the assistant of the Ministry of War, and later led the soldiers to become the general manager. Now He was even awarded the title of Shangshu, a first-class military officer, and he was at the pinnacle in the history of the Dakang Dynasty at his age. Such an achievement is really too high and incredible!
Song Wensong felt that he was not weaker than Lu Zheng in terms of talent or force. Where Lu Zheng is better than him, he would only make a few crooked poems. Such so-called talents are not worth mentioning!
It is precisely because of this thought that Song Wensong is very jealous of Lu Zheng. Whenever he encounters an opportunity, he wants to step on Lu Zheng. No, he has secretly engaged in a lot of ghosts.
Lu Zheng had a different attitude towards him. Lu Zheng knew that Song Wensong had engaged in several ghosts in secret, but at a critical moment, Lu Zheng still dared to use him. Song Wensong could make a comeback in the south of the Yangtze River and regain control of his military power. This is inseparable from Lu Zheng's activation. of.
But Song Wensong was not grateful to Lu Zheng. After Song Wensong took Bingzhou, he drove straight into Longyou and took Longyou. At that time, he thought he had a brighter world, and he had the mind to deal with Lu Zheng again.
It's just that he never thought that his turn would come back so quickly. The last time Lu Zheng was in embarrassment, now it was his turn to desperate. At this time, he was very clear in his heart that if he didn't give up everything completely and didn't need the utmost sincerity to exchange for Lu Zheng's forgiveness, Lu Zheng would never keep him.
Lu Zheng has never been a soft-hearted person. Over the years, Lu Zheng has been able to go higher and higher and reach the position he is today. I don't know how many people have stepped on the top position. Sooner or later, Song Wensong will be his opponent. Familiar, can Lu Zheng not understand this truth?
For Song Wensong, if he had not had a last resort and had nowhere to go, he would not come to Lu Zheng, and since he decided to come, he had prepared for the worst this time.
Song Wensong’s car has already arrived outside the city, but the dispute in Shengjing City has not yet subsided. Zhang Pinghua's expression is very excited, saying: "My son, general, Song Wensong is a perfidy. These people are begging for you today, he Once there is a chance in Japan, it will inevitably kill you again, so these people can't stay anyway!"
Zhang Pinghua said that there were many people who agreed with him. Indeed, Song Wensong’s act of stabbing a knife in the back was infuriating. It was simply unbearable. Song Wensong might not have thought about today. If there was today, he would never have done it that way. Now he regrets it!
Zhang Pinghua said so, and everyone else said so. In this situation, Song Wensong was taken to Lu Zheng’s general mansion. Lu Zheng did not speak, but sat in a chair drinking tea. Other counselors, including Zhang Pinghua, took turns to speak. They One goal is to persuade Lu Zheng to be resolute and to kill Song Wensong.
Lu Zheng closed his eyes to rest up his mind, and the boy said: "The matter has come to this point, and your opinions are so firm, you can only ask Mr. Dai to say something fair!"
The boy said that everyone thought that the key figure Dai Gao had not spoken. The general mansion at the moment, Dai Gao is undoubtedly the most detached existence. He usually does not speak, but the power of the Dakang Dynasty for decades has the same every move. Naturally, there is a majesty that others cannot match.
Dai Gao opened his eyes and stared at Song Wensong. A meaningful smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth. He said: "I will act on a certain life, and only I will bear others, no one will bear me! At this moment, if I do this It is undoubtedly very simple!"
With Dai Gao's words, everyone in the audience breathed a sigh of relief. Only Song Wensong's face changed drastically. His lips lifted to say something, but Lu Zheng paced towards him. After all, he couldn't say a word. .
Lu Zheng walked to him, patted his shoulder gently, and said, "Wensong, Longyou's defeat this time shows one thing, that is, although you are diligent, hardworking, and desperate, you are still better than nothing. Go to your father! Your father is the real master of that piece of land, and it is too immature for you to take his place!
Coming from Bingzhou, I ran all the way, and it was hard work! "
Song Wensong's tears came out, and he stared at Lu Zheng and said, "Brother Lu, I'm not a thing, Song Wensong. You saved me again and again, but I tried to harm you many times. I'm sorry for you. I blame me... I blame my jealousy and trouble. At this point, I have nothing to say, just to die.
I can die in Liaodong, better than I die in Longyou, I would rather die by your brother than in the ancestral hall of the Song family! "
When Song Wensong said this, the whole person suddenly became bleak. He wiped away the tears with his hand, and his expression was extremely lonely. Lu Zheng stared at him, and the two of them looked at each other. I don’t know how long it took, Lu Zheng let out a long sigh. , Said:
"Wen Song, you and my brother, you have seen the situation here. In this hall, there is currently no one who wants you to live. You have brought soldiers yourself, and you know the difficulties of those who lead them.
The so-called mercy is not in charge of soldiers, you and my brotherhood are put aside, morale in our army is the top priority. Well, I will give you a fragrant kung fu, you take good hold of it, if you can move me, I will spare you not to die. If you can’t, you can go ahead and wait a few years before you and my brothers meet again! "
After Lu Zheng finished speaking, he laughed, and the laughter was full of heroism, but Song Wensong's face instantly became pale. He knew that Lu Zheng was not joking with him. He took a deep breath and groaned as he walked to Zhang Pinghua's. In front of him, Zhang Pinghua stared at him, but Song Wensong reached out and took the teacup in front of Zhang Pinghua. He picked up the teacup and took a greedily sip of tea, and then said to Lu Zheng:
"I came from Bingzhou and brought you tens of thousands of horses and tens of thousands of soldiers. I die, the horse is still a horse, and the military will be chaotic!"
Zhang Pinghua didn’t wait for Lu Zheng to speak, he said: “I have my own military tactics. If you kill a thousand people, you can stop 10,000 people from making chaos. Even if your tens of thousands of horses are in trouble, I only need to kill a few thousand people. , This is simply not enough to save your life!"
Song Wensong said: "I have been operating in Longyou for more than ten years. This time I cooperated with the Qi family, and Longyou fell, and the Qi family must leave. The basis of the cooperation between the Qi family and me is ten million taels of silver. I can take out the silver. As long as I save my life, I can transfer three million taels first. When the Qi family has a place to stay, the remaining money will be a lot!"
Song Wensong paced around and said quietly: "Liaodong is good, it is a first-class place to raise troops, but Liaodong is not good because it costs money to raise troops here. For so many years, the size of the Liaodong army has not risen because of this. A piece of land can't support so many troops!
So silver is a good thing. When you have silver, you can exchange food, and when you have food, you can raise soldiers, Mr. Zhang, don’t you think? "
Zhang Pinghua was stunned for a moment, speechless, indeed, Song Wensong's question is too sharp, and Song Wensong's life to compare which one is more important? Is this still a question for Zhang Pinghua? Song Wensong was already a tiger with his teeth pulled out, and his bones in the mound were nothing but withered. His life could be exchanged for tens of thousands of silver, so naturally he couldn't be killed!
Zhang Pinghua was defeated. His attitude also represented the attitude of most counselors. However, the people under Lu Zheng were not so foolish. Dai Gao said, "Thousands of silver is indeed a very large number, but since you mentioned the Qi family The Qi family is now desperate. He must have left Beiyan at this time. We only need to take them back at Beiyan. The business of tens of millions of silver is still ours!
As for what role Song Wensong played in this, or whether or not you played a role is not important, is it true that you say things? "
Song Wensong stared at Dai Gao, without a word for a long time, Lu Zheng said: "Brother Song, the time for a stick of incense is not long or not short! You must think twice!"
Song Wensong turned his head to look at Lu Zheng, and said, "Brother Lu Zheng, there is one more thing I haven't said. In fact, when I was in Jiangnan, I had a very unusual relationship with His Royal Highness. His Royal Highness once gave me a sum. Heavy money, I spent all this money on the Nanfu Army.
I have at least five internal responses in the Nanfu Army, and these five battalions have at least 15,000 troops in their hands. Originally, I was planning to use these people once they changed, we took the risk and turned against Su Zhi! You know the rest of the situation, hey, good luck makes people, I left Jiangnan, and about this amount of silver, and my arrangement in the Nanfu Army, I did not inform His Royal Highness.
At that time, I simply wanted to leave a way for myself, and didn't think too much. Now it seems that Brother Lu Zheng, this arrangement, these five thousand people may be useful to my brothers!
You and I are brothers, I can help you with this matter, how about it? "
Song Wensong quickly looked at Dai Gao and said, "Old Dai, how about the sale of these 5,000 people? Is it enough for me to survive?"
Dai Gao laughed, Lu Zheng laughed, Song Wensong laughed too. All three of them were laughing, and their minds were different. For Dai Gao, he knew that Song Wensong was not an easy one, and he must have something in his hands, so he just wanted to let Lu Zheng get more benefits. It was not true. He wanted to kill Song Wensong. In fact, Song Wensong's bargaining chip was too heavy. For Lu Zheng, it was a help in the snow. For this alone, Song Wensong's life was saved!
Lu Zheng laughed, but his heart was extremely shocked. He never thought that Song Wensong still had such a big bargaining chip in his hands. He had to say that the surprise came too suddenly.
The recent events in Jiangnan have caused Lu Zheng a headache. Su Zhi suddenly lost control and put the Jiangnan Lu family in a very dangerous situation. Lu Zheng is far beyond the reach of Liaodong. Although Lu Shanchang can keep him on hold for a while, he may be able to recur in the long term. Under such circumstances, if Lu Zheng could borrow the power to allow Song Wensong to play a certain role in this matter, this would definitely have a chance to turn things around.
Of course, for Lu Zheng, he was even more shocked by the accuracy of Song Wensong's source. Things in Jiangnan are very hidden. Because Lu Zheng has a large intelligence network under his hands, he can grasp the changes in Jiangnan.
Song Wensong has been nestling in Longyou these days. Recently, he has been busy with warfare and exhausted his life. At this time, he also knew the embarrassing situation of the Lu family in the south of the Yangtze River. It was really surprising that Lu Zheng's shots were so accurate.
For Song Wensong, he took a long breath of relief and took a high look at Lu Zheng. He knew that his life could be saved, but he also knew that if in the next time, he would not If you dare to play tricks, he will definitely die, and Lu Zheng will never let him go.
So for him there are only two choices. One choice is to forget the past, forget the ambition, and forget everything from now on. He will die to Lu Zheng with peace of mind, and assist Lu Zheng to move forward step by step. If one day Lu Zheng can really Achievement, he can get a lifetime of glory and wealth, so and so, life is also very good.
The second option is that Song Wensong has to wait, even if it takes ten or even twenty years, or even a lifetime like Sima Yi, he needs to wait for the best time to act before acting, if not, then act like before. , He will die without a place to be buried.
Life is like this, often after experiencing a fiasco before he knows a lot of truth, just like Song Wensong now, he gave all of his own, so it is just to save his life, from then on, he will return to zero, completely zero. At least in five years, or ten years, or even in this lifetime, he will lose the opportunity. But he can still live, even if he can only take a breath, he will be dead if he is alive...
