Song Wensong's sudden appearance in Bingzhou was undoubtedly a blow to the Northwest Army, and Cheng Ting's defeat made the Northwest Army panic. Song Wenjie couldn't help but be furious, he was really angry and gritted his teeth, he never thought that Song Wensong was besieged in the capital, and there were still more miles to save the state.

This time, he Song Wenjie led 100,000 horses to crusade against the state, and he originally had an absolute advantage, and he would definitely be able to take it in time, but now Song Wensong's sudden appearance has made the situation change subtly.

After this battle, Song Wenjie lost 20,000 horses, but Song Wensong increased 10,000 elite soldiers, so that the strength of the two sides was quickly narrowed.

What's even more terrifying is morale, Song Wensong's sudden appearance made Song Wenjie's previous remarks in the army about Song Wensong's death in the capital all lies, and the generals under his command lost trust in him.

I have to say that Song Wensong's name is too big in the territory of Longyou, and the three generals are the gods of war in Longyou, compared to Song Wenjie and Song Wenhua, the brothers obviously have a much weaker sense of existence.

In this situation, the strategist Sun Yu gave Song Wenjie advice, saying: "General, the situation has reached this point, this battle has been exhausted, rather than continue to consume, it is better to retreat for the time being." As the saying goes, victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, this time the defeat is not in the general, but in Cao Weiming's treachery, and he actually released the three generals from the capital. ”

Sun Yu's words are obviously nonsense, the battle of Bingzhou was not won, he let Cao Weiming, who was thousands of miles away, take the blame, and he could think of it, but these words were in Song Wenjie's ears, and they were a lot more pleasant, and Song Wenjie had already retreated: "Mr. Sun, this time the third child did not win against him under internal and external troubles, and I am afraid it will be difficult to win in the future!" And the state choked the throat of the north and the south, so that I could not collude with the Guannei, this situation is really not good, it can't be broken! ”

Sun Yu said: "Why should the general worry? Right now, for the three generals, the harder the pressure outside, the more terrifying power he can explode, and once we retreat, he will fall into a passive situation!

General, you think, the road from the capital to Bingzhou is not close, the three generals have insufficient troops at hand, it is difficult to take care of both the north and the south, and he is unwilling to lose both sides, so he is bound to fall into a situation of losing ground!

Looking at the third general who is now friendly with Jiangnan, it is because he is suffering from the enemy on his back and is willing to send all his war horses to Jiangnan. And once this situation changes, it and Jiangnan will inevitably have a disagreement, at that time, the beacon smoke will definitely rise again, we just need to wait for the opportunity to send troops, the overall situation will still be in our hands! ”

Sun Yu's rhetoric is just an excuse for failure, Song Wenjie was originally a straw bag, leading 100,000 troops to attack the state at the beginning of the interest, after so many days of fighting and encountering setbacks, he had already retreated, and his ambition had been thrown out of the clouds at this time......

Retire! Song Wenjie ordered the troops to retreat, 100,000 horses lost tens of thousands, and retreated to Longyou in a gray manner.

Jiangnan, Jinling, Lu Zheng came from Jiangning, took Zhang Pinghua and Tong Zi to see Lu Shanchang, Lu Shanchang was completely responsible for the affairs of the court, and Lu Zheng was able to hide behind the scenes and control the situation.

Lu Zheng and Song Wensong have recently completed a series of amazing deals, and he is very happy with them. He looked through a lot of history, carefully studied and pondered the situation that Jiangnan had always been difficult to train troops, and found that the lack of horses in Jiangnan was the first reason.

In ancient warfare, the role of horses was too crucial, although there were many classic tactics of infantry against cavalry in history, but cavalry was still invincible, so the biggest challenge for Lu Zheng to establish the Nanfu Army was the construction of cavalry.

And now, he can get 30,000 war horses, and Lu Zheng can't buy these 30,000 horses with 3 million taels of silver, and he can't buy them! With such a foundation and horses, the growth of the Nanfu army is just around the corner!

"Master, son, the current situation is really not peaceful, Jiangnan seems to be calm, but there are endless disputes in the court, and the situation of fighting for power and profit is not stopped, and it is difficult to form a joint force.

In addition, the elite of the Nanfu army has now gone to Lianghe, in case of changes in Jiangnan, General Liu of Yuzhou may not be able to rescue in time, in this case, the war in Jiangnan may be in crisis! Zhang Pinghua spoke first and expressed his worries.

Lu Zheng frowned, nodded and said, "What Mr. Zhang said is extremely true, Jiangnan does have a crisis of internal and external difficulties. Originally, the transfer of 30,000 troops from the Nanfu Army to the north was already the limit, but who would have thought that Song Wensong, this kid, would be so poor? Cao Weiming is also crazy, if we don't take care of it, once the north is completely controlled by Cao Weiming, it will be ......."

Lu Zheng waved his hand and said: "The key is the horses, the Nanfu Army can't do without horses in the long run, so this time I am in danger!"

At present, we still have more than 50,000 men and horses, and it is really thin to defend the entire south of the Yangtze River, so we can only take Jinling as the center, first shrink our fists, and guarantee the stability of the Lingling and Yangzhou areas. ”

Zhang Pinghua nodded and said: "Today's plan, this is the only way!" ”

Lu Shanchang said: "Zheng'er, do you have any other thoughts about this arrangement?" You must know that the recent quarrel above the court about the Nanfu army can be described as very intense, so it is mainly the Duan family and the Zuo family who are causing trouble, they are close to Emperor Xinde, and they need to form some kind of suppression on our family, so the situation is quite complicated......"

Lu Zheng nodded and said: "I've heard all these things, and that's why I'm worried, the peaceful days in Jiangnan have been too long!" Many people just think that our Jiangnan power valve has taken a big advantage, and it seems that the whole Dakang is us enjoying ourselves, and they are all in dire straits!

Liu Song went to Yuzhou, Jiangnan will no longer have a good life, grandfather, look at it, soon Long Lingxiu will not be able to help it, the thieves in Lingnan will also go north, Huainan Dao Sun Chongwen has long been antipathetic, they have long been eyeing Jiangnan, in this situation, can they endure it?

The good days in Jiangnan are over, let's let everyone see who is guarding Dakang and who is working hard for Dakang's Jiangshan Sheji! ”

When Lu Zheng said this, a touch of murderous intent instantly appeared on his face, and the recent events in Jiangnan really made him angry. He was trying his best to form the Nanfu army, but Emperor Xinde secretly colluded with the Duan family and the Zuo family, wanting to cultivate his own power in the Nanfu army.

After all, the Nanfu Army is a newly formed army, its morale is unstable, and its combat effectiveness is not strong, in this case, once it is broken by someone ideologically, the consequences are very scary!

Therefore, Lu Zheng first transferred the elite out of Jiangnan and freed up his hands to build an army in Jinling, he knew very well that he could not defend such a large territory in Jiangnan.

Therefore, on the one hand, he took advantage of the close distance of Jinling, Yangzhou and other places, the intertwining of waterways, and the characteristics of strong city defense to arrange defense, and on the other hand, in Jiangnan, he was ready to exchange space for time.

What's more important is that he uses his troops flexibly, never sticking to one place, once he encounters a death battle like Song Wensong, Lu Zheng can mobilize Liu Song to return to help, and then attack inside and outside, so as not to be completely desperate like Liu Song, and even abandon the war horse to resolve to break the boat.

Where there is a pre-plan, it will be established, and if there is no pre-plan, it will be wasted, Lu Zheng is based on Jiangnan and is laying out a big game of chess, Zhang Pinghua is very worried about this, he pondered for a long time, and said:

"Childe, when today's chaos is in turmoil, the fortunes of the Great Kang Country have declined, at this moment, Childe should raise his arms and call out to gather the heroes of the world to fight together for the country. On the side of the Bauhinia Palace, when it is critical, it will be decided, don't lose the opportunity because of a momentary hesitation, if that's the case, then the gain outweighs the loss! “

He paused, and said: "Heroes are born in troubled times, and Gongzi is the world's first-class hero. ”

Lu Zheng's face changed, and he said angrily: "Mr. Zhang, it's just a matter of saying this today, and you must not mention it again in the future!" The crisis in Jiangnan is like this, how can my Lu family do such a rebellious thing? It is even more impossible to be like Cao Weiming and other shameless people for their own interests, what does that kind of behavior have to do with self-defeat? ”

Lu Zheng was really angry, because he always felt that Zhang Pinghua was a strategist with extraordinary insight. But listening to his words, Lu Zheng was really disappointed. Zhang Pinghua's intention was to let Lu Zheng imprison Emperor Xinde in the palace, and then Lu Zheng himself became the king and fought for hegemony in the world based on Jiangnan.

Zhang Pinghua's proposal is simply ridiculous, as Cao Mengde said in history, if it weren't for him Cao Mengde, I don't know how many people would be called kings and emperors, and I don't know how many people in the world would be spit.

Lu Zheng is also a human being in two lives, how could he do such a stupid thing? Look at Cao Weiming, originally he went to Lianghe to use the resources of Lianghe to develop obscenely, maybe in time he will have a chance to really rise. But after this fool arrived in Lianghe, he couldn't wait to become the king, and as soon as he became the king, he rebelled against the revolution and became the rebel of Dakang. This undoubtedly made him the target of the world in an instant.

Why did Song Wensong beat him so much? Song Wensong can rely on this to get close to Dakang and get the status of a Dakang courtier! If not, how could Cao Weiming lose Yuzhou?

The boy said: "Childe, Mr. Zhang is also the heart of his fists, you don't need to mind too much!" At the moment, the situation is indeed not easy for Jiangnan, and Childe's arrangement is also very appropriate. We firmly believe that the difficulties will pass sooner or later......"

Lu Zheng nodded, and thought in his heart that the boy and the others were limited to the times after all, and they didn't know what the world would be like thousands of years later, which was why so many people couldn't wait to be called emperors.

Lu Zheng and Zhang Pinghua and others discussed in Jinling, and the next day they received news from Huainan Province, the governor of Huainan Province, Sun Chongwen, established himself as the king of Huainan, and issued a document to discuss Xinde, in which he counted the various behaviors of Emperor Xinde since he ascended the throne, favored the warlocks, neglected the government, was obsessed with power and trickery, and abandoned all kinds of people.

He named Emperor Xinde "Demon Emperor", saying that Emperor Xinde was not a human at all, but a lich who had become a spirit and that after he usurped the throne, his purpose was to harm the people.

This article was sent out, and Sun Chongwen himself led an army of 100,000 to approach the Huai River, wanting to attack Jiangnan, threatening to sweep Jinling within a month!

After Sun Chongwen's letter was issued, Lingnan Wang Bai Jingzhong immediately responded, Lingnan Wang Bai Jingzhong also raised troops in Lingnan, claiming that 200,000 horses crossed Guanshan, and wanted to invade Jiangnan in the north, he and Sun Chongwen agreed that once the two captured Jiangnan, they would divide the land of Jiangnan equally.

Shandong's Liaodong Army also assembled to the south, approached to the bank of the big river, and was ready to cross the river at any time. Jiangnan is in chaos......

The Jiangnan crisis first caused a huge panic in Jinling, and above the imperial court, the cabinet ministers and ministers were all in panic. At this moment, everyone finally felt the fear and horror of the building about to fall!

Jiangnan is only a few tens of thousands of horses at the moment, but the enemy claims to have an army of 300,000 attacking from the south and north, how can such a force Dakang be able to stop it?

Emperor Xinde of Bauhinia Palace couldn't cultivate with peace of mind, because the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace were extremely panicked, and the little Taoist priest who accompanied him to cultivate escaped a little and a half in one day, and the catastrophe was coming, and many people chose to flee!

Emperor Xinde looked at his old face in the bronze mirror, looked around, and found that there were not many people around him who could be trusted, he couldn't help but sigh and said:

"Senior Brother Xu, in the current situation, isn't it really heaven that is going to die?"

Xu Tiandao hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, you don't need to worry too much, since Your Majesty ascended the throne, I don't know how many winds and waves you have experienced, so many winds and waves have come, are you afraid that you won't be able to withstand it this time?" ”

Emperor Xinde shook his head and said, "This time is different from usual, even if I have suffered setbacks and failures before, I can still have other choices. But if Jiangnan is lost this time, where can I go? The world is so big, there is no more home for me......"

A sad look appeared in Emperor Xinde's eyes, and he said after a long time: "Okay, it's time to go out to see the courtiers." If Jiangnan can be saved this time, I won't care about the affairs of the court in the future! The Lu family's Lu Shanchang is mediocre, but the Lu family has an amazing genius like Lu Zheng, if he is allowed to play well and devote himself to the country and the people, he will definitely be of great use! It's just a pity......"

Xu Tiandao said: "It's not too late now, Lu Zheng has been training the Nanfu army, although the number of Nanfu troops is not large, but they are all well-trained, Poor Dao believes that Lu Zheng will go out in person, there must be a strategy to break the enemy!" ”

Xu Tiandao wasted no time in pushing Lu Zheng out, and Emperor Xinde realized at this time that the only thing he could hope for now was Lu Zheng. Except for Lu Zheng, who else in the Manchu Dynasty can share his worries?

Recently, he attaches great importance to Duan Tanglin, the people of the Zuo family, these people are too scared to enter the palace, expecting them to share the worries of the country and the people and the emperor?
