Cao Weiming and Song Wensong fought, and after three days of fierce fighting, Song Wensong led the army back, and Cao Weiming was able to have a chance to breathe.

For a while, the people under him were patting each other, and some people offered advice to let Cao Weiming "chase after the victory", but fortunately, although Cao Weiming acted out of line and looked ugly, his brain was quite normal, and he knew that in terms of strength, he was still far behind Song Wensong.

The key is the defeat of the capital, Song Wensong left a deep impression on him, this fierce man personally led his troops to attack the city, and was the first to attack the city, such a brave general, I am afraid that since the founding of Dakang, Song Wensong is still the first person.

Song Wensong really retreated, and has retreated to the vicinity of Gyeonggi, this battle Song Wensong seems to really want to give up, after all, his choice can be understood, because now the world is in chaos, although Song Wensong is quite powerful, but he is still too pressured to defend the capital alone, if he and Cao Weiming can't win quickly, the two have fought a war of attrition, even if Song Wensong wins, he may not be able to gain a firm foothold, but like Cao Weiming, although he won the capital, he was soon driven away, Then the situation will instantly fall into a very passive situation.

Cao Weiming tried to negotiate peace with Song Wensong again, but this time Song Wensong agreed and sent his confidant Qi Yuanzhi to Yuzhou.

Cao Weiming and Qi Yuanzhi talked for a few days, and he felt more and more wrong, because he found that this person surnamed Song seemed to have no desire and no desire, no matter what conditions Cao Weiming proposed, Qi Yuanzhi actually agreed, which made Cao Weiming feel puzzled in his heart.

Cao Xuanhua said: "General, for today's plan Xuanhua thinks that we must not only defend Yuzhou, but also defend Bianzhou, we have arranged the army in the land of the two states, so that we can take care of each other, and secondly, it will be conducive to our mastery of the situation of the two rivers!" As long as we grasp the granary of the two rivers, we can recruit soldiers for a long time, which is the foundation of our roots! ”

After Cao Weiming groaned, he happily agreed to Cao Xuanhua's opinion, but after thinking about it, he said: "At the moment, we don't quite understand what General Song San means, so let's wait for the contract with General Song San to be negotiated first, I'm afraid things can be safe, otherwise ......."

Cao Xuanhua laughed and said, "The general is too cautious!" Is the general wondering why Song Laosan suddenly became so weak? In fact, this is not difficult to understand, although Song San is powerful, but after all, he is on an expedition, after the soldiers arrived in the capital, there is a lack of logistics, and he is afraid that he will live like a year these days!

This person is a proud person, I thought that he led tens of thousands of horses to Yuzhou, and he would be able to defeat the general, but he didn't expect that stealing chickens would not make rice, and after suffering a loss, they realized that Yuzhou was not something they could easily frustrate.

In this case, if we defend Bianzhou together, and the two cities become horns, and Song San wants to act rashly again, he can't help but carefully consider the pros and cons. ”

Cao Weiming said: "Xuanhua, Ben Shuai knows that you are quite ambitious, and you want to sit in Bianzhou, but this is not the best time, Song San seems to be reckless, but his mind is the most cunning!" We must not act rashly without understanding his intentions, otherwise we are very likely to fall for this person!

You just said a good point, Song Wensong came from afar to occupy the land of Gyeonggi, and its logistical preparations are very difficult, compared to it, we and he can afford to consume, but if Song Wensong really has no way back, he will definitely work hard, when he wants to die and the net is broken, we may not be able to take advantage! ”

Cao Weiming was obviously still very sober, and he was not carried away by the success of defending the city, and at this time, someone suddenly came to report, saying: "Report to the general, no...... No...... Oh no...... Too...... It's ......"

Cao Weiming's heart sank suddenly, and he said, "What are you stammering for?" After carefully smoothing it out and then talking, what is it, is it difficult that the sky is going to fall? ”

The person who came took a deep breath, and his weakness seemed to ease a little, and then he said: "General, the prince is gone, the prince is not in the palace, and the people on the left and right are nowhere to be seen......

"What?" Cao Weiming exclaimed, he suddenly stood up, and said, "How is this possible?" I saw the prince today, have any outsiders seen the prince? ”

"Back to the general, no one has seen the prince in the past few days, by the way, the envoy of the Northwest Army has come to see the prince!"

Cao Weiming slapped the table and said, "Quick, chase quickly, catch up with the messenger of the Northwest Army!" Catch up at all costs! His subordinates immediately led the order to chase after the people, and at this time, Qi Yuanzhi had already fled to Gyeonggi with Long Zhaohuan.

This time Qi Yuanzhi's envoy can be said to be extremely beautiful, he is ostensibly entangled with Cao Weiming about the peace talks between the two sides, in fact, his only purpose is to save Long Zhaohuan, Long Zhaohuan has long been willing to flee after being insulted by Cao Weiming, Qi Yuanzhi and him in the past of course hit it off, the two of them had no intention of calculating, and they did it without blood.

When Long Zhaohuan stepped into the noon gate of the capital again, he couldn't help but howl and cry, he was a prince, and the most wretched time was when he was controlled by Cao Weiming, where did Cao Weiming treat Long Zhaohuan as a prince? When he was unhappy, he beat and scolded Long Zhaohuan, completely treating Long Zhaohuan as a slave and a slave!

Long Zhaohuan went from the capital to Yuzhou, and all the concubines died, leaving him alone. He thinks about his whole life, the first half of his life has been glorious and rich, although sometimes he feels wronged, but all those grievances are really not worth mentioning compared to this time.

To put it in his heart, Long Zhaohuan was really frightened in his heart, he suddenly realized that once the Dakang country changed hands, I was afraid that from now on, the Long family, the children and grandchildren of the Long family would suffer such humiliation like him.

Therefore, Long Zhaohuan secretly swore in his heart that he would use all means and methods to regain what the Long family had lost, to restore the Long family's country, and to make the Dakang Dynasty strong again, prosperous and strong again.

Cao Weiming lost the crown prince, and he finally understood why Song Wensong had played so many tricks, and his true intentions! It's about snatching the crown prince!

And Cao Weiming, who lost the crown prince, can be said to have made matters worse, so Cao Weiming could also force Long Zhaohuan to issue various princely edicts before, accusing everyone who was against him, and he was considered to be famous and occupied the moral high ground.

And now, he has lost this commanding height, and he has become a chaotic minister and thief, and a thief who is punished by everyone in the Dakang Dynasty.

Cao Weiming was panicked, and immediately summoned all the generals under him, and the civil officials and ministers discussed and discussed countermeasures, and at this time, the prince of the capital came, Long Zhaohuan counted Cao Weiming's ten sins in the edict, and really said that Cao Weiming was heinous, all kinds of mean words, all kinds of extreme words were used, and Cao Weiming became a chaotic minister and thief in Jiangbei overnight.

And before Cao Weiming in the edict of His Majesty in Jiangnan, he had long been defined as a thief, Cao Weiming was a thief, and the label of crime was determined, and everyone in the world condemned him for a while, and even Shandong Tan Lei said that he was ready to send troops to Xizhen to take the land of the two rivers!

Cao Weiming was discussing the matter in the palace, and Cao Xuanhua knelt down and said: "Don't hesitate, the general is already in chaos today, Emperor Dakang Xinde has no way, and the whole world is against him, and Dakang is actually torn apart."

The current society needs the lord of the world, the general is heroic and powerful, and he was born in a wealthy family, so he should take on this responsibility. Now that all the rebels have slandered the general, why don't the generals directly call the king and let me have a name, so that from now on, we can go out on an expedition under the king's orders to quell the thieves who rebel against the world, so as to restore my great rivers and mountains! ”

Cao Xuanhua's suggestion, let Cao Weiming directly claim the king! Isn't everyone in the world scolding Cao Weiming now? scolded him for being a rebellious minister and thief, and scolded him for being a thief, since this is the case, then Cao Weiming simply called the king, and then Cao Weiming's army could immediately become the king's army, and he forced these negative titles down.

This world is respected by the strong, the so-called pearl thief, the thief of the country, Cao Weiming will be the king, and he will swallow the world as his own responsibility.

I have to say that Cao Xuanhua's thinking is too ridiculous, this is completely self-deception, covering his ears and stealing the bell. However, after Cao Weiming consulted with the strategists, he actually accepted this suggestion, decided to proclaim himself the king of Hejian, build a new Yin'an palace in Yuzhou, and called Emperor Xinde the crime of stealing the country, and said that he was the descendant of Prince Yin and Prince Longyin, and wanted to liquidate the old things of the Dakang Dynasty in the past usurpation of power and seizure of power.

After Cao Weiming was called the king of Hejian, all the generals and officials under his command were rewarded, and for a while, in the small city of Yuzhou, a brick was thrown down, which could kill two generals and three prime ministers, this farce really made everyone in the world feel ridiculous.

Thousands of miles away, Lu Zheng, who was in the south of the Yangtze River, heard the news, and he just smiled and bent over. He and Cao Weiming are actually very familiar, the two have shared a lot of things together, he has always felt that Cao Weiming is still a character, at least in very difficult circumstances, this guy can survive in Lianghe with difficulty, and develop obscenely, so that the Cao family can occupy a place among the powerful families of Dakang.

This time Cao Weiming was able to get out of Jiangnan, Lu Zheng was the main key figure, according to Lu Zheng's idea was to let this guy go back to Lianghe, so that he could take the opportunity to disturb the situation, and he must not let Long Zhaohuan annex the army of Lianghe, so as to quickly sweep the north away. Or let the Liaodong Army sweep south, and let the north land fall into the hands of the Liaodong Army.

Lu Zheng never dreamed that Cao Weiming was such a frenzied living treasure, he hijacked the prince and ordered the northern land, but he did a great job, he actually treated the prince as a slave, scolded at every turn, and even stayed in the palace at night, calling the palace maids and concubines together to have fun, this kind of behavior is simply madness.

This time, Cao Weiming even set himself up as the king, proclaimed himself the king of Hejian, and divided the world, turning the Lianghe Province into his own independent kingdom. I have to say that this guy has reached a new level of stupidity, and his madness has also reached a new level.

……

With Long Zhaohuan's return to the capital, the situation in the north gradually began to stabilize.

Undoubtedly, now Song Wensong in the north has become a new force independent of the Song family, and from the perspective of Guannei, Song Wensong is the strongest, strong enough to occupy the strategic place of the capital.

In comparison, Cao Weiming, the king of Hejian in Yuzhou, is obviously struggling to support, and I am afraid that he needs a determination from the bigwigs, and his kingdom can be wiped out.

and Tan Lei, who is entrenched in Shandong and Liaodong, is also very strong, but there is still Cao Weiming's buffer between him and Song Wensong, and it is difficult for the two sides to conflict in a short time.

Therefore, the internal contradictions of the Song family finally began to be exposed at this juncture, Song Wensong was too strong, and the two elder brothers of the Song family quit, and they wanted to summon Song Wensong back to Longyou.

Song Wensong had worked hard to get the capital, how could he go back? Therefore, the two sides are destined to reach a consensus, since they cannot reach a consensus, they will inevitably tear their faces, Longyou's biggest constraint on Song Wensong is the economy, the Song family directly cut off Song Wensong's money and food logistics, and the cronies of Song Wenjie, the eldest brother of the Song family, came to occupy the military important place of the state and occupied the state, which is a sign of the showdown of the Song family.

After the loss of Bingzhou, it will be difficult for Song Wensong to return to Longyou, and if he can't return to Longyou, he can only take Gyeonggi as his home and survive in this place.

Compared with the chaos in the north, after crossing the big river, Jiangnan has completely stabilized the situation, after Lu Zheng annexed the king of Qi, the Nanfu army expanded to more than 100,000, Jiangnan has so many soldiers and horses to guard, almost no one can match it in the short term.

More importantly, Jiangnan is a rich place in the world, with Jiangnan, Lu Zheng will continue to grow the strength of his Nanfu army, as time goes by, Lu Zheng's Nanfu army will definitely become stronger and stronger, and then, the rebellion in Lingnan will also become very realistic, in the next step, Yue Feng will take Huainan Road again, and the south of the river can be unified.

And for Lu Zheng, although the situation is good, but he is not without hidden worries, his biggest hidden worry is naturally from the Bauhinia Palace, Emperor Xinde is becoming more and more disgusted and distrustful of the Lu family, according to his temperament, there will inevitably be a moth!

In such a situation, Lu Zheng's future is facing great uncertainty, because at least one thing, that is, the current Lu Zheng has absolutely no strength to rebel, so the game between monarchs and ministers will inevitably become more and more intense, to be honest, Lu Zheng really doesn't think that he will definitely be able to gain the upper hand.

Anyway, the world is in chaos, Dakang has lost the deer, Xinde lost the deer, the world chased it, who killed the deer? It's too early to tell, and it's full of uncertainties.

I have to say that this situation was something that Lu Zheng hadn't expected for many years before, because he didn't expect that Emperor Xinde would die like that after he reached the later stage, he even deliberately wanted to induce his son to rebel.

He acted like setting fire to his house with a match, and thought he was in control, but suddenly a gust of wind came without warning, and the situation got out of control in an instant, and he never went back to square one......
