The family should be killed!!

This is this thought, and Di Renjie can only think about it in his heart.

Regarding Lu Song and other courtiers' remarks of "persuading" Wu Zetian to wait and see again, Di Fatzi was not as excited as he was in the palace before, and he didn't even go out to refute it.

Moreover, not only did he keep silent, but he also grabbed Doulu Qinwang beside him, and he didn't let him speak out.

As for why?

First, Di Renjie knew very well that with his and Doulu's weak words, he couldn't talk about the children of this Manchu dynasty.

Second, even if it is true, what is the use?

......

At this moment, Di Renjie thought of Wu Ning, and remembered what he said at the palace gate, "Take back everything that belongs to me!" ”

Di Renjie had a feeling that although he had coveted the Central Plains for a long time, he could not be influenced by human beings, but .....

Why does Di Fatzi always feel that all this is in Wu Ning's calculations?

Why is there a faint expectation that Wu Ning is likely to play a vital role in this Turkic trouble?

Anyway, the current situation is already like this, and Di Renjie can only pin his hopes on Wu Ning to come out and do something.

Even Di Renjie had already made up his mind, and after going to court, he personally went to Wu Ning to persuade him to do something.

......

————————————

The proposal to send troops to the north was not passed in the end because of the opposition of the family gatekeepers.

Wu Zetian had no choice but to follow the advice of Lu Song and others and temporarily watch on the wall. He also urgently ordered Jiangnan, Jinghu, and Bashu prefectures to transfer grain and grass, purge government soldiers, and assemble to resist the enemy at any time.

......

However, there have always been no secrets in the gods, let alone the barbarians who came to invade and the military aircraft in the north was urgent.

Within three days, the Turks silently raised an army of 400,000 to invade the south, and the news that the troops had already arrived under the city of Shuozhou had already spread in the Shendu.

.....

"Is this worth it? Since the founding of Gaozu, it has been 80 years since the Spring and Autumn Festival, and it has always been our Han people who raised troops to Mobei and conquered the world. ”

"The ancestor of the Turkic silent sipping child was almost destroyed by Taizong, but now he has a long ability, and he dares to raise troops to attack!?"

"If Her Majesty the Empress doesn't beat him so that he doesn't even know his ancestors, it will be difficult to show my prestige in Wu Zhou!!"

......

The major events of the family and the country, and the question of the majesty of the nation comes, what is the Oiran lady of Guanningfang, what is the genius of Shuzhong, what is the three kui of the Ming Jing, and what is the princess of the long road dart......

These glamorous gossips are all gone, and the streets and alleys, flower halls and hotels are all talking about Turkic troubles.

At this time, in a street wine shop somewhere in Luoyang, the idle people in the city gathered together and talked loudly, more attentive than the court's civil and military affairs.

The previous one was impassioned, and immediately had a different voice to refute.

"What's the hurry? Doesn't it mean that the jury is still undecided? ”

"Lu Shilang, they advocate that the troops should not be moved for the time being, and there is a certain amount of truth."

......

"What's the point!? Can't you see the beacon fire on the tower? ”

Greeted left and right, "Don't we all see it, thousands of miles of smoke are lit, so can there be a fake?" ”

......

"But no one can say if there really is an army of 400,000!"

The person who refuted was called Zhu Er, just an ordinary car and horse dealer in Luoyang South City. Now he has become the focus of attention, the most shining figure in the wine shop.

"Thou shalt know that it is the beginning of winter, and the waters of the north are dripping with ice, and the sky is freezing. Not to mention fighting, even if the southern soldiers have a slight shortage of food and clothing, they don't know how much they will freeze to death. ”

"So, it's still necessary to be cautious."

"Besides, let's sit here and drink wine and eat meat, and talk about sending troops when we open our mouths. But do you know how much grain and grass you have to supply when you send thousands of miles of troops or hundreds of thousands of troops? ”

"Just the auxiliary soldiers and people who transport grain, it will cost hundreds of thousands, but if you don't dare to move, you can move."

......

"Humph!" The person who advocated sending troops obviously did not have the knowledge of the opponent, and he couldn't say it, but he also snorted coldly.

"Wait for the Turkic barbarians to come in and then talk about sending troops, then it's too late!"

“......”

“......”

There was silence.

In fact, the people don't think so much, they are in the Central Plains, and they only hope that the Central Plains will win all battles and have a long face with the Han people.

Therefore, there are not a few people who echo such reckless remarks as sending troops to fight and beating the Turks to call their mothers.

And like this, the scene of not sending troops or not, arguing about whether to wait and see, is being staged in every corner of Luoyang City.

All of a sudden, the people's sentiment was boiling, and the two sides held their own opinions, argued endlessly, and there was a tendency to intensify, which had already alarmed the court.

What puzzled Di Renjie was that the people's discussion of politics had always been feared by the imperial power, and although the empress was enlightened, she was not indifferent.

However, why did the folk discussion come to this point this time, and Wu Zetian didn't move?

Could it really be that there is no time to be distracted and worry about the military affairs of the north?

......

——————————

In the north, and the state camp White Tiger Festival Hall.

At this time, Governor Shi Wei Yuanzhong was wearing a python robe and purple belt, and he wore swallow wings on his head.

The left hand is tightly clutched to the sword at the waist, and a pair of white sword eyebrows are tightly twisted together!!

Under the hall, it was the generals of the state defenders, and when they saw that the commander was so solemn, he also looked solemn, waiting for orders with bated breath.

“....”

Wei Yuanzhong seemed to have been thinking for a long time, and he shouted angrily!

"No way!!"

Fierce staring! "Even if you don't have a talisman."

"The danger of Shuozhou can't be ignored!!"

Bingzhou is only three days away from Shuozhou, which is besieged by 400,000 Turkic troops.

And Wei Yuanzhong has 100,000 defenders in his hands.

It is completely possible to send troops to help alleviate the crisis in Shuozhou.

But!!

Although Wei Yuanzhong has the right to provoke on the spot, but he poured out 100,000 yuan, and he was not the only one who could make such an important decision.

However, the imperial edict has not been delayed! Wei Yuanzhong had no choice but to be in a hurry.

"Father!!"

Wei Yuanzhong's second son, Wei Huang, heard that his father was going to take the initiative to send troops, and he was in a hurry!

"Father, don't!"

"The empress has not arrived, so she rashly sent troops, and when the court blames her, my father can't afford to bear the guilt!!"

"But what can I do!?" The old minister Wei Yuanzhong roared angrily! Pointing to the north: "Do you want to watch hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Shuozhou being slaughtered!?" ”

"Could it be...."

Wei Yuanzhong gasped: "Do you want your eldest brother to also be buried in the Turkic Iron Hoof!?" ”

“....”

That's right....

Shuozhou City not only has more than 200,000 soldiers and civilians, but also Wei Yuanzhong's eldest son Wei Sheng, who was the Shuozhou Commander at that time!

....

"Report !!"

Just when the father and son were arguing, Ling Gao drank and entered the court.

"Report !! Letter from Jingshi! ”

"Please take a look at Wei Shuai!"

"Show me!" Wei Yuanzhong was overjoyed, thinking that the Empress had arrived!

But when I took it, it was an ordinary envelope....

Above, only mentioned: Wei Zhenzai personally opened.

Wei Yuanzhong was disappointed, but also confused.

Wei Zhenzai? Zhenjae is not the expression of Yuan Zhongzhi, but his original name. The name of Yuan Zhong was changed later.

But few people know that his name is Wei Zhenzai.

Take a look.

I saw the extremely familiar handwriting.

"Wei Qing personally enlightened, Shuozhou has no ability to return to heaven...."

"In order to ensure that the Central Plains portal is not lost, look at Wei Qing, don't move lightly, and defend the state!"

"Waiting for my reinforcements ......"

The following inscription is: Wu Cao!

“！！！”

This is....

This is a handwritten secret letter written by Wu Zetian to Wei Yuanzhong.

“.....”

Wei Yuanzhong...

Looking at the eight words of Wan Mo and sticking to the state, he burst into tears.

Holding the letter in both trembling hands, he couldn't calm down for a long time.

Hold on...

Don't save!

This illustrates...

The empress has given up on Shuozhou....

gave up 200,000 Shuozhou soldiers and civilians, as well as urban and rural villages along the road from Shuozhou to Bingzhou....

It is true that it is safest to defend the state and annex the state in the war. The Empress's move is understandable.

But....

But Wei Yuanzhong couldn't figure it out!!

He couldn't figure it out! Together, it has been more than half a month ago!

If the imperial court made a decision, it would gather troops from the northern states to help. The fastest can reach Shuozhou in more than ten days.

Coupled with the 100,000 soldiers in the state, Genyi doesn't have to abandon the car to protect the handsome!!

Don't give up!!

What's wrong??

What happened to the Empress? What happened to Di Renjie!?

What's wrong with Doulu Qinwang!? Doesn't anyone want to get it!?

And!!

Judging from the time, this secret letter was obviously sent from Luoyang shortly after the beacon fire was ignited.

Other words....

The empress was going to give up Shuozhou early!!

Why?

Why not send troops?

....

——————————————

Shuozhou.

The guard general Wang Ran and the state commander Wei Sheng stood on top of the ruined city tower.

Looking out of the city, the Turkic barbarians who couldn't see the edge at a glance, their determined eyes gradually became desperate....

"Where's the reinforcements?"

"Where's the reinforcements!!"

Wang Ran muttered....

"We relied on this broken city and broken walls for half a month!"

"But the reinforcements.... Why haven't there been reinforcements yet!? ”

Wei Sheng shook his head slowly, his expression sluggish....

"No... Reinforcements are coming! ”

If the state army wants to come to help, it can be reached in three days, and if it comes, it will come a long time ago.

Even if you wait for the imperial court soldiers, you should have come long ago.

For more than half a month, there is no Wuzhou military flag outside the city, which means ....

There were no reinforcements.

Shuozhou is already a ....

Dead City!

....

Wei Sheng turned around...

Looking at the city, his eyes were full of tired soldiers, as well as the people of Shuozhou.... Desperate eyes.

Wei Sheng let out a long sigh and spit out three words: "Break through...."

"How?" Wang Ran lamented: "The 400,000 army is surrounded by iron barrels. ”

"Can you rush out!?"

"There are always a few who can rush out!" Wei Sheng said: "Could it be... Do you let the Shuozhou army surrender to the Turks!? ”

"Grandma!!" Wang Ran glared and said: "Lao Tzu's soldiers will not surrender to death!" ”

"Then let's break through...."

Wei Sheng looked directly at Wang Ran, "Fight to the death!" It's not a weakening of the prestige of my Great Zhou army and people! ”

"As for how much you can live...."

Wei Sheng slowly drew the long sword at his waist!

"Even if it's just one person alive!"

"My Shuozhou is tragic! It can also be praised all over the world, and it will be celebrated forever!! ”

.....

It's night.

Wang Ranzhou, the general of Shuozhou, ordered Wei Sheng to lead 40,000 remnants of the army, coerced 170,000 Shuozhou people, and opened the city at night to break through.

However, there are many Turkic thieves, and Shuozhou is outnumbered. After fierce fighting until dawn, the Zhou army was defeated and failed to do so.

The guards Wang Ran and Wei Sheng were martyred.

Of the 40,000 soldiers, none of them were killed.

The people of Shuozhou, touched by the pride of Wei Sheng and Wang Ran, swore not to be a northern slave, and killed them all!

Survivors...

Less than one in a hundred.

The news came back to Luoyang...

The whole country is in an uproar! All of them are sad and inexplicable!!

The people who agreed with the opinions of Lu Song and other courtiers before all hid their faces in the face of this iron-clad fact and bloody lesson.

Some even turned against each other and pointed the finger at Lu Song and other family officials.

And that day, in a restaurant on the street, Zhu Er, who was speechless to others, was one of the most extreme...

It's still that wine shop, and it's still Zhu Er's person.

"Grandma's!!"

"A certain family thinks that Lu Songzhugou is really calm-minded and cautious for the sake of Da Zhou."

"Only now do I know that Lu Song is Fan Yang Lu!!"

"His fucking opposition to sending troops is entirely because he doesn't want to use the people of the north, and he still has his own food reserves!!"

"What the hell!!"

"Grandma's!! This dog deceived me very hard! ”

“.....”

“......”

Although everyone was disdainful, he didn't say that a few days ago.

However, it did not prevent everyone from agreeing with Zhu Er's words.

"The Empress is also a little indecisive this time..."

"Why didn't you send troops earlier to save Shuozhou from fire and water?"

"Pity the tens of thousands of defenders, loyal and brave to defend the city for half a month."

"I also pity the hundreds of thousands of people in Shuozhou....."

....

"Uh-huh..."

Someone started crying.....

The cry was very mournful.

"I... My second brother is in the Shuozhou Army! ”

As soon as these words came out, the mourning in the wine shop was inexplicable, and some good people also comforted the person who lost his brother, and by the way, Lu Song and others, as well as Her Majesty the Empress, were counted all over again....

Merely.

No one noticed that a carriage was passing in front of the liquor store.

Listening to the complaints and cries of the family, I couldn't help but lift the curtains... Leaked a picture of an old and tired face.

....

Di Renjie frowned.

The people are like tigers... Wronged as a wolf.

The people's grievances have reached this point, but Wu Zetian still doesn't care.

Then there's only one possibility...

Lu Song, his life is not long in coming.

To put it bluntly, someone must come up with an explanation for the mourning of Shuozhou.

There must be someone to top the tank for this pain of Da Zhou.

Originally...

The Empress had already had this plan.

But...

Di Renjie couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart!

For the sake of one Lu Song, even if it is a few more courtiers of the family, the empress gave up more than 200,000 lives in Shuozhou!!

It's true....

Is it really worth it!?

Lower the curtains.

Di Renjie closed his eyes and didn't move, and there was only a burst of weakness left in his heart.

And the disappointment that I can't say what it tastes like.

...

The carriage crossed the street and came to a stop at a courtyard under the eastern city wall.

Get out of the car and look up, Li Zhai.

...

The so-called Li Mansion is not Mu Zhai.

That's because this is the mansion of Li Ke, a wealthy man in Shuzhong, in Beijing, and it is temporarily lent to Wu Ning for use.

But...

Di Renjie said in his heart, this is a coincidence, or Wu Ning did it on purpose, but no one can tell.

Only he knows what he really thinks in his heart, right??

Stepping in, Di Renjie swaggered into Wu Ning's door.

...

"Di Xiang is here, what are you doing?"

As Di Renjie expected, the attack on the northern border and the destruction of the city did not bring any waves to Wu Ning's face.

He's still ..... Cold shoulder!

The coldness makes Di Renjie a little annoying!

"How?" Di Renjie also straightened his face. "The old man can't come?"

"Heh...."Wu Ning chuckled, "Of course you can, but.... Many people in Luoyang want to enter my Mu Zijiu's door. ”

"But it doesn't seem to include Di Xiang, you can always come, Zijiu is very surprised."

"Inside, please!"

said that he was surprised, but he still gave in lightly and let Di Renjie go to the inner hall.

The two sat in pairs, and there was silence for a while.

......

"Enough!"

In the end, it was Di Renjie who broke the silence.

"That's enough!"

A pair of old eyes stared at Wu Ning! "No matter what you're going to do, that's enough for any purpose!"

“......”

Wu Ning didn't speak.

He understood what Di Renjie meant, what Wu Ning wanted from the Turkic invasion of the south.

What role can it play, this is what Di Renjie cares about.

But now Di Renjie doesn't care anymore, what he cares about is the world and the Great Zhou.

It's the next Shuozhou....

He hopes that Wu Ning can do something, and he also believes that Wu Ning can do something?

So here he comes...

With the illusion of the long talk eight years ago, I hope that Wu Ning can keep his heart and still be the hero.

It's not a demon who only wants revenge, but only wants revenge!!

"Eight years ago.... The old man can see through you. I took advantage of you, just because I believed in you! ”

Di Renjie was still staring at Wu Ning: "But now..."

Slowly shook his head, "The old man really can't see through you...."

"Then you come and tell the old man..."

"Should I still trust you?"

"....." Wu Ning still didn't speak, and still indifferently made Di Renjie hate it!

Long....

"Okay." Wu Ning spat out a word.

"So... According to Di Xiang. ”

“......”

Depend on!!

Di Fat almost didn't flash his waist!!

You, you, you... You said yes too easily, didn't you?

...

I saw Wu Ning stand up and look at the bare and somewhat bleak ginkgo trees in the courtyard.

"Your Majesty...."

"It should be almost time to send troops."

"Rather promise you, do what I can."

"Okay?"

.....

。
