Chapter 304: Military generals are not afraid of death
Yu Yin's sanity was not very clear anymore.
At this time, he was covered in bruises, and his vision was a little blurred. The tiger came out of the long knife and waved it mechanically, but there were more and more golden soldiers around him. The Chenqiao camp was completely destroyed by the Jin soldiers, and he knew in his heart that he had actually lost this battle.
Clang!
A Mou Ke Jin rushed over and slashed with a knife.
If it were in normal times, this bit of force would not be worth it at all.
But now, Yu Yin was exhausted, raised his knife to meet him, although he sealed the opponent's long knife, but the strength of the knife made him take a few steps back, and the long knife in his hand could no longer hold it, so he fell to the ground.
A spear stabbed and stabbed Yu Yin in the thigh.
The severe pain made Yu Yin's mind suddenly clear, he shouted, turned around and slammed a tiger pounce, and raised his hand to smash a nail, knocking the spear-wielding golden soldier to the ground. It was this pounce that caused the Jurchen centurion's broadsword to fail. Just as Yu Yin and the golden soldier were rolling on the ground, a rumbling sound suddenly sounded in the ears of the Jurchen centurion.
Thunder?
The centurion was stunned, raised his head and looked at the sky, but saw that the moon was bright and the stars were scarce.
But the roar became clearer and clearer, from far to near, which made him feel confused......
"The Flood...... Song Dog broke the embankment! ”
A golden soldier shouted loudly, which made the centurion stunned, and hurriedly turned back to look at the upper reaches of the Guangji River. But I saw that from the upper reaches of the Guangji River, a torrent was roaring, and the sound was terrifying. Guo Jing and others cut off the river channel of Baliwan and blocked the flow of water upstream. But as Guo Jing said, this season is the time when the water of the Guangji River is at its most violent, although it is only a few hours, it has accumulated an astonishing amount of water. The dam was hit by Chen Dong's cannonball, and the flood water that had accumulated upstream rushed down at once, like a giant dragon, devouring all the lives that stood in its way......
Half of the Jurchen army has crossed the Guangji River, and the rest are speeding up their crossing.
Countless soldiers and horses gathered on the river, and when they saw the flood coming, they were immediately terrified. Jin Bing shouted loudly. Want to speed things up. But the more this is the case, the more chaotic it becomes, even if the Jurchen generals killed more than a dozen Ali Xi who had lost their proportions, there was no sign of improvement.
Wanyan Zongwang was taken aback, knowing that something was wrong, and hurriedly fled on horseback.
In the Chenqiao section, the river channel is relatively narrow, and the flood water overflows the embankment at once. The golden soldiers on both sides of the strait rushed to the side.
It is the ruins of the camp of Chenqiao. Also flooded.
Wanyan Zongwang was overseeing the battle on the river embankment, so he was swept into it by the flood rushing from the upstream. Lost in an instant......
The entire Chen Bridge has become an ocean!
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Kaifeng, Zichen Palace.
Zhao Huan wandered anxiously in the main hall. Suddenly walking, suddenly sitting in a daze, and his face was even more cloudy.
The good news from outside the city did not make Zhao Huan feel too much joy.
Speaking of which, it should be a big win.
But Zhao Huan couldn't give birth to the joy after the victory, but gave birth to a little jealousy.
After this battle, the seed master can be said to be famous.
He has only been on the throne for a short time, can he really suppress these people in the future? Moreover, these people have made great achievements. It has directly threatened the foundation of the founding of the Great Song Dynasty. Zhao Huan pondered for a long time, and he had already made up his mind in his heart. He immediately wrote down a secret decree, summoned his henchmen, handed the secret decree to the chamberlain, and said in a deep voice: "Express and King Duan." ”
The content of the secret decree is very simple, stop the pursuit of the other people during the dialogue.
Bai Shizhong, Li Bangyan and others were exiled from Beijing as soon as possible......
He wants to keep the power of the peace faction, and he can't continue to track it down. Now the situation is clear. Zhao Chen's disappearance has nothing to do with these people. If we continue to investigate, I am afraid that more will be implicated. If the last one is not good, it will cause a situation where the master and others in the court are dominant. The emperor emphasized a balance, and Zhao Huan categorically did not allow this situation to occur.
But......
When the secret decree was issued, Zhao Huan was a little disappointed.
Cause?
He couldn't say it himself. I only felt empty in my heart, and there was an inexplicable amazement.
That's when it happened. There was a commotion outside the Zichen Palace.
"The prince is back, the prince is back!"
Zhao Huan was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly stood up and walked out.
But before he could walk out of the main hall, he saw a short figure stumbling in, and knelt in front of Zhao Huan with a pop.
"Father, save Xiao Yi."
The familiar voice made Zhao Huan's mind settle down suddenly.
With the light of the candles in the main hall, he saw Zhao Chen's appearance clearly.
Zhao Chen was wearing a very ill-fitting Song Jun short shirt, covered in blood. There were still tears on his face, and he looked extremely tired.
The anger suddenly vanished.
Zhao Huan originally planned to teach Zhao Chen a good lesson, but when he saw Zhao Chen's appearance, he swallowed it back when it came to his mouth.
"Little brother, why do you look like this?"
Zhao Chen knelt on the ground, and cried in a hoarse voice: "Ask my father to send troops quickly to rescue Xiao Yi." ”
"Xiao Yi?"
Zhao Huan was stunned for a moment, and then came to his senses, "Do you mean that Zhu Yuyin is the rate of the government?" Did he take you away? ”
Zhao Chen hurriedly shook his head and said: "My father blamed Xiao Yi by mistake, Xiao Yi didn't know that the child was also in the army. Later, he found that when the child was in the army, he had been blocked by the thieves. Father, please send troops quickly, otherwise Xiao Yi is in danger. ”
Zhao Huan pulled Zhao Chen up and raised his head to look outside the main hall.
But when he saw Emperor Roufu and Zhu Xuan standing timidly outside the main hall, they were in a trance for a while.
"Huanhuan, what's going on?"
Zhao Duofu walked in and said timidly: "Brother Huang is angry, it's no wonder that the little brother is doing this, it's all the fault of the little sister......"
"I don't care whose fault it is, I just want to know what happened."
At this time, Zhu Lian, who got the news, also hurried over, and seeing this situation, he hurriedly dispersed the people and pulled Zhao Duofu and Zhu Xuan into the Zichen Palace.
Zhao Duofu told the story of the incident as it was.
Zhao Huan on the side heard this, his thick eyebrows trembled, and he looked at Zhu Lian, and couldn't help but show a wry smile on his face.
Zhu Lian sighed and hugged Zhao Chen tightly in his arms. said in a strange tone: "Little brother, do you know how many things you have pulled out this time?" Thankfully, you're fine, otherwise you're bound to cause a catastrophe. ”
"Where is the Dick enemy of the Dima camp?"
"Dick's father and son asked Jiao Cheng to send us back, and his father and son rushed to Chenqiao to support Yuyin."
Zhao Huan frowned and immediately summoned the inner attendant.
"Walk. How is the progress of the planting so far? ”
"There is news from the Privy Council. The old breed has already defeated the thief Wanyan Saili's department and is rushing to Chenqiao for reinforcements.
In addition, Zhang Xi, the pioneer of reinforcements in Henan Province. It has also arrived at Baliwan, less than 20 miles away from Chenqiao. ”
Zhao Huan hesitated.
Should the pursuit continue, or should the fight stop?
If the pursuit continues. has achieved the great feats of the master, and in the future in the court, it will inevitably become a trend; But if you don't pursue, will this great opportunity be missed? Zhao Huan felt a little reluctant again, and couldn't make up his mind for a while.
Or Zhu Lian said: "The concubine once heard that Yu Xiaoyi said a sentence: If civil officials are not greedy for money, and military generals are not afraid of death, then the world is peaceful." The concubines don't understand this matter in the court. But this Yu Xiaoyi is indeed loyal to my Great Song Dynasty. Although this person has no background. relied on Yu Yin to make up for his body, but this loyalty is not inferior to those who have read the books of the sages. It's rare that he is so dedicated to his little brother, and he can't say that he will be able to share his worries for his little brother in the future.
Officials don't often say that they can't wait to use pillars.
If this Yu Xiaoyi is really dead, wouldn't it cheapen other people's prestige for nothing? Anyway, he's the little brother's man! ”
Yu Yin is Zhao Chen's person.
This. From the moment he assumed the position of the head of the government, he could not change.
Zhu Lian's words also have a meaning: Since you are worried about the great power of the Seed Master, why don't you share the credit of the Seed Master?
That's right, the victory of the Seed Master Dao Supervisor in the battle against Mu Huogang is indeed a lot of credit, but if there is no Yuyin to defend Chen Qiao. The results of this battle may not be so impressive. If Wanyan Zongwang hadn't been cut off from the back road, he would have fought to the death with the Seed Master. So. The real first merit in this battle is still Yuyin. And Yu Yin is indeed a close minister by Zhao Chen's side.
Zhu Lian is worthy of being a woman from an official family, and she said Zhao Huan's mind in one sentence.
What is Zhao Huan most worried about?
In fact, the outcome of this battle does not matter to him, and it is even said that he would rather lose than win......
The reason is very simple.
The Seed Master Dao won, and the reputation belongs to him who planted the Master Dao, and it has nothing to do with Zhao Huan.
Not only that, once the Cultivator Dao wins a complete victory, it will inevitably form a force in the court, a force that can compete with the royal family. The scholar is powerful, and Zhao Huan wants to see it...... But if the first credit of this battle is owned by the royal family, the credit of the cultivation master will become insignificant.
The pros and cons of this need to be carefully considered.
Zhao Huan's eyes narrowed into a slit, and he suddenly smiled: "The sage is right, how can such a loyal minister sit idly by?" ”
He stood up and shouted in a deep voice, "Kang! ”
"The slave is here."
"Immediately pass on my will and tell the seed prince that he must rush to Chenqiao as soon as possible to rescue the prince of Yuyin's army."
Zhao Huan bit the words 'prince pro-army' very hard.
Where can Kang Lu not understand what he means, this is clearly Zhao Huan, who wants to snatch the first merit of this battle.
"The slave and maid will go at once."
Kang Lu took the order to go outside, but as soon as he walked out of the Zichen Hall with his front feet, he heard a cheer outside. Kang Lu was puzzled in his heart, and hurriedly walked out. Before he could reach the palace gate, he saw a horse galloping towards him, and the knight was galloping on his horse, and shouted loudly: "Chen Qiao's great victory, Chen Qiao's great victory...... The thieves and Chen Qiao were completely defeated! ”
Kang Lu was stunned when he heard this, and he didn't care about giving orders again, so he hurriedly ordered someone to stop the knight.
"What did you just say?"
"If you go back to your husband, you will be summoned in front of the father-in-law, and Chen Qiao will be victorious."
Kang Lu listened and gasped.
As a confidant around the official family, how could he not understand what the official family was most worried about?
didn't care about talking to the knight anymore, so Kang Lu hurried back to the Zichen Palace.
"The official family, the public communication, Chen Qiao's victory!"
When Zhao Huan heard this, his face suddenly sank, and the joy of his beloved son's safe return suddenly disappeared, but instead of it, he was inexplicably worried.
Chen Qiao's victory?
In this way, has the Dao of the Seed Master won a great victory?
