Song Wensong's situation is very dangerous now, he does not have many soldiers in his hands, and the defense pressure of the capital is extremely great, on the other hand, the state must be defended, because the security of the state is related to the safety of the capital.

The last time he came to Bingzhou and frightened Song Wenjie, but he knew very well in his heart that it was just a short retreat, and there were still many high-ranking people in Longyou, if Longyou had been in business for decades, it would be unrealistic to block Bingzhou with only Song Wensong's 30,000 horses.

Sooner or later, the crisis in the state will come again, and the people in the capital are scattered, and even the prince Long Zhaohuan wants to return south, at this moment, what should Song Wensong do?

Song Wensong was discussing matters in the General's Mansion, and many strategists made a name for each other, but for Song Wensong, these arguments were really meaningless.

Some people want Song Wensong to give up the capital, and then capture Yuzhou, while some people want Song Wensong to capture Cao Weiming at all costs, and then rely on the land of the two rivers to develop slowly, no matter how they dispute, these options Song Wensong has considered, if one can work, why did Song Wensong fall into today's situation?

From Longyou to Guannei, it was a huge leap for Song Wensong, and at the same time an unprecedented challenge. For Song Wensong, he is an outsider after all, and it is not easy for an outsider to win people's hearts, one of them.

Second, Song Wensong did not have any accumulation, the capital was just a city, except for a slightly larger population, there was nothing, there was no food, and the source of money was also controlled by others, Song Wensong only felt that the future was extremely confused, and he really couldn't find a proper solution.

"Alright, alright, let's talk about it for today, all gentlemen go down and rest!" Song Wensong waved his hand and blasted everyone out, but Qi Yuanzhi stayed at the back and didn't go out for a long time.

Song Wensong's heart couldn't help but move, and said, "Yuanzhi, do you have anything to teach me?" ”

Qi Yuanzhi said: "Three generals, Yuanzhi has a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not, Yuanzhi asked the three generals, does the general really want to be the courtier of Dakang, or is he going to borrow the name of Dakang's courtier, like Cao Weiming and his ilk, once they have the opportunity, they also want to be the king and hegemon?" ”

Song Wensong was stunned for a moment and said, "Why did Yuanzhi ask?" Wen Song is Dakang's courtier, can this be fake? Wen Song is wholeheartedly going to attack and retreat with Dakang, and completely draw a line with Longyou! ”

Qi Yuanzhi laughed and said: "I'm afraid the three generals can't be sincere, I don't think the three generals will let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sit in the palace and listen to the court, I'm afraid this alone will be difficult to convince everyone." In this era, clowns are rampant, and those who have a little strength in their hands are trying to ascend to the sky in one step, and everyone is self-reliant, called lonely, which can be described as a group of demons dancing, if the three generals want to fight with these people, and they want to win the battle, their minds cannot be the same as them......"

Qi Yuanzhi was slightly stunned, then suddenly stood up and said: "Yuanzhi, you are my Kong Ming, what should I do in this matter, Yuanzhi will teach me quickly!" ”

Qi Yuanzhi said word by word: "If the general wants to live, he needs to dare to retreat!" Take a step back today, and you will be able to take ten steps forward in the future! It's like hitting someone with a fist, how can you hit someone if you don't retract your fist?

Therefore, if the general wants to listen to my plan, there are three articles, and the first one is to return to the prince! The second article is to blame Jiangnan, and the third article is to take power in Jinling......"

Song Wensong frowned slightly and said, "Yuanzhi...... This...... Are you trying to let me leave my brothers behind and go to Jiangnan alone to avoid trouble? ”

Qi Yuanzhi sneered and said, "Since the third general keeps claiming that he is a loyal minister of Dakang, he should know how a loyal minister should act!" The war in the north is unfavorable, Your Majesty asked you to take Yuzhou and you lost, Your Majesty asked you to attack Bianzhou and you were defeated, and you lost again and again, shouldn't you be guilty?

As for returning to the crown prince, there is nothing to say, His Majesty's will is to let the prince supervise the country in the capital. But now that the prince is in the East Palace every day, he can't even see the minister's face, what's the difference between your style and Cao Weiming? The so-called Sima Zhao's heart is well known to everyone, if the three generals are still like this, the world will treat you as a person who wants to be the king and hegemon, once that happens, the three generals and Cao Weiming and the like will be the same! ”

Qi Yuanzhi talked eloquently, Song Wensong's face was cloudy, it was obvious that he was shocked by Qi Yuanzhi's astonishing remarks, he Song Wensong had so many soldiers and horses in his hands, and now he said that he would give up, which would probably not be done for anyone.

In the troubled times, soldiers and horses are lives, Song Wensong can't believe that he doesn't have such strength, how can he still survive, do you really expect to be a rich man in Jinling for a lifetime?

But Qi Yuanzhi's words Song Wensong has no way to refute it, it is true that as Qi Yuanzhi said, Song Wensong is now in a dead end, and he can't break this situation with his own strength.

Unless he formed an alliance with Cao Weiming, otherwise, how could he hold the capital? But he and Cao Weiming have already torn their faces, and now they want to form an alliance, isn't it self-deception?

The pressure on the state is very great, and the pressure on the capital is also huge, Song Wensong grabbed the two hot potatoes with one hand, and if he lost one of them, he would be finished, this situation is so clear, Song Wensong may not be able to retreat......

Seeming to see Song Wensong's doubts, Qi Yuanzhi said: "As for the third point in charge of Jinling, the three generals don't have to worry, now that the Lu family in Jiangnan is dominant, covering the sky with one hand, Your Majesty has been suffering from the Lu family for a long time."

But Your Majesty can't find an opponent who can compete with the Lu family at all, in this case, the situation in the imperial court has been unbalanced, the three generals go to Jinling at this time, you have nearly 100,000 troops in your hands, with this confidence, Your Majesty will definitely reuse you. Your Majesty will even pour a lot of resources into you, because he needs to train you to deal with the Lu family!

Therefore, the three generals' move to retreat is actually to turn passivity into initiative, let themselves come out of the dead end, and further expand their maneuver space, which is a good strategy! ”

Song Wensong pursed his lips and was silent, stood up and paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, he muttered: "The reason is this reason, the reason is really unusual, but ...... What to do in the capital? What about merging states? ”

Qi Yuanzhi laughed, put his hands behind his back and said: "The three generals are just the generals of a defeated army, and you are very worried about the major affairs of Jiangshan Sheji." I have His Majesty in the Dakang Dynasty, there is a prince, and there are so many prime ministers who can be good at writing and martial arts, and Jiangnan is even more talented, is it possible that a merger and the capital will be lost?

If the power of Dakang can't keep the capital and the state, the three generals are alone, and it is impossible for you to keep the state, can the three generals understand this truth? ”

Song Wensong was stunned and speechless, he felt that he still didn't regard himself as a courtier of Dakang in his bones, once he had the heart of despising Dakang, he would naturally be arrogant and rude, so that his behavior would deviate from the track!

Everyone in this world has ambitions, and how many people in the world are ambitious? But ambition must be supported by strength, and if you don't have enough strength, how can you support your ambition? Just like Song Wensong, he has elevated himself and entered a dead end, if he doesn't wake up suddenly, he may be finished soon.

During the discussion just now, there were even strategists who urged him to be the king immediately, and then ordered Gyeonggi and the counties of Bingzhou as the king to establish an army of kings to conquer the Quartet, so that he could quickly pacify the two rivers, occupy the territory of the two rivers, and have the rich land in the Guannai, and Song Wensong would occupy the most advantageous position of the Son of Heaven!

Song Wensong really had a little bit of excitement at that time, but now that he thinks about this suggestion, he only feels that cold sweat is breaking out on his back, and he is afraid for a while!

Song Wensong listened to Qi Yuanzhi's comments, and then reflected on the previous discussions, which were like heaven and earth. Qi Yuanzhi's high remarks are to let Song Wensong retain the opportunity, and there is still incomparable longing and imagination in the future. However, other people's discussions are to further push Song Wensong forward, all the way to the situation of no return!

After a long time, Song Wensong said: "Yuanzhi really saved me, your plan really made me wake up, I was wrong for such a long time, it was really amazingly wrong!" At this time, it is time for me to go to the East Palace to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for my guilt! ”

After Song Wensong finished speaking, he immediately asked people to change their clothes, he put on the regular uniform of a military attaché, took only one entourage, and went straight to the East Palace. It is said that since the crown prince Long Zhaohuan secretly met Su Xinghai, his heart has been going up and down, waiting for this news bitterly, and he is really living like a year.

After all, Long Zhaohuan has been operating in the capital for so many years, and now although he has been elevated, he still has a little bit of pressure on the bottom of the box under his hands, at least he still has a few lines in terms of messaging.

Early in the morning, news came from outside that Su Xinghai actually packed his bags and got on the southbound boat alone. When Long Zhaohuan heard this report, he immediately chuckled in his heart, thinking that it was over.

He only had this thought, and immediately received a second message, but it was a public news outside, saying that Prime Minister Su Xinghai, in the name of the crown prince, immediately went down to the south of the Yangtze River to investigate His Majesty's illness, and after arriving in Jinling, he would return three days later!

As soon as Long Zhaohuan heard the news, he was immediately stunned, and he couldn't help but grit his teeth and roar: "Su Xinghai is really an old thief, he dares to betray me!" Is it true that all the loyal ministers of Dakang are dead now? Is there no longer a courtier in my Dakang Dynasty who can share the worries of this palace? ”

Long Zhaohuan scolded Su Xinghai for being untrustworthy, but he panicked in his heart, he realized that Song Wensong must be very annoyed at this time, so when he heard the report outside that the general Song Wensong came to visit, he was so frightened that he fell to the ground, and he was really just a fart.

Now Long Zhaohuan is no longer as majestic and heroic as before, and his fighting spirit is high, he has experienced all kinds of ups and downs in the capital alone, especially after experiencing all kinds of humiliation and abuse by Cao Weiming, he has a huge shadow in his heart, and now facing Song Wensong, he is really afraid.

Song Wensong walked quickly into the East Palace, Long Zhaohuan wanted to hide when he saw him, Song Wensong caught up with him from behind, he was so frightened that his legs were weak, and he actually wanted to kneel down, Song Wensong hurriedly knelt on the ground and said:

"His Royal Highness the Prince, Wen Song is wrong, Wen Song is here today to ask for sin! Wen Song has always thought that His Royal Highness has not recovered since he went to Yuzhou to experience those things, so the affairs of the capital, Wen Song actually overstepped his efforts to help His Royal Highness in charge, yesterday Su Xiang reminded, Wen Song knew that he had done something traitorous, at this time I thought about it and really couldn't feel at ease, and I came to ask for guilt early this morning! ”

Song Wensong was very sincere, the whole person prostrate on the ground, and his hands touched the soldier talisman and said: "Your Highness, this is the talisman in our army, hand it over to Your Highness today, and in the future, Wen Song should listen to His Highness when he uses soldiers, and our army will be up and down with the orders of His Highness!" ”

Song Wensong paused, and said: "As for the political affairs of the capital, they should also be attributed to His Highness, and I should obey His Highness's will!" ”

Song Wensong's performance, Long Zhaohuan's eyes widened and he couldn't believe his ears, his first reaction was that Song Wensong was pretentious, this was fake! Immediately, he said: "General, don't do this! The general can guard one side for His Majesty, and he can manage the capital for His Majesty, Your Majesty is very happy! In the eyes of this palace, I also admire the ability and talent of the general, and I highly agree with your actions, so please don't do this.

In the future, the affairs of the capital must be handled in accordance with the requirements of the general, and the palace will cooperate with the general to manage the capital and the state! ”

Song Wensong knelt down and said, "Your Highness, don't do this again!" You are the crown prince who oversees the kingdom for the Son of Heaven, and you must take the power into your own hands! Your Highness can rest assured that Ben will immediately go down to Jiangnan and personally go to Your Majesty to ask for guilt, and ask Your Majesty to punish the crime of greed for merit. As soon as I leave, His Royal Highness will no longer be fettered in the affairs of the capital, and the generals under me should only obey the military talisman, and the ministers can guarantee that as long as His Highness wants to transfer troops, they will absolutely obey the order and dare not have any disobedience! ”

Song Wensong said this, extremely sad and said: "It's a pity, Weichen is incompetent, failed to win the war in the north, now Longyou wants to go south, Cao Weiming is eyeing the side, the Shandong army may advance westward at any time, although the distance between the capital and the state is not far, but our defense is very weak, this crisis moment, Weichen is really poor in donkey skills, Weichen will definitely report this matter to His Majesty this time in Jinling, Weichen believes that I have a large number of talents, and the fierce generals are like clouds, With the power of my great health, I will definitely be able to solve the crisis! ”

Song Wensong's performance reached a climax, and when the play reached this point, the prince Long Zhaohuan was stunned for a while, and at this time he believed that what Song Wensong said seemed to be sincere!

handed over the talisman, and he was willing to go to Jinling to ask for guilt, Song Wensong really wanted to be a loyal minister! As soon as he thought of this, Long Zhaohuan's mind immediately became lively.

He thought that although the strength of the capital was not strong, the soldiers and horses were all strong soldiers in the northwest, which was a big force. Long Zhaohuan, as the crown prince of Dakang, if he can hold this force in his hands, and then find a way to deal with the Song family and Cao Weiming, as well as several other forces, he may not have a big chance!

Did Song Wensong go south to become an official? If you want to be an official, Long Zhaohuan can completely repair the book for Emperor Xinde, and let Song Wensong be a prime minister? For Dakang, especially for Long Zhaohuan, such an opportunity is too rare, such a temptation is too great, and he can't resist it at all.

Long Zhaohuan helped Song Wensong up, and immediately couldn't help crying: "Wensong, this palace has always blamed you!" Hongu ...... Hongu ...... I'm at fault, too......"
