Seeing that the army seemed to have an unexpected, Chase slapped his horse and rushed to the carriage, and shouted: "Wu Jiedu Tiger of the Divine Guard Army is here, you wait to retreat!"

The Divine Guard Army and Wu Yingying were very prestigious in the Tang Army, and those chaotic troops did not dare to mess around when they heard that it was Wu Yingying's car, and they retreated on both sides of the street, and there were many soldiers who had fought with Wu Yingying looking at Wu Yingying's car with a complicated look in their eyes.

Wu Yingying looked through the car window at these soldiers who were still fighting bloodily for the Tang Dynasty and Jiangnan last night, but this morning they were a ragged and chaotic army, and his heart ached, so he ordered the coachman to stop, lean out, stand on the car, and face the army.

"Wu Jiedu, it's really him!" There were many surprises in the group of soldiers, and some of the soldiers who had followed him to participate in the battle between Changzhou and last night's city robbery knelt in the muddy water to salute.

Wu Yingying cleared his throat and said loudly: "Brothers, I am the commander of the Divine Guard Wu Yingying, I believe that many brothers have fought side by side with me and the Divine Guard, and our sword once let the Song people know that the Jiangnan people are not easy to mess with!"

These words resonated with many soldiers, but after a brief moment of excitement when they thought that the lord of the country had asked for surrender, the soldiers fell silent again.

Wu Yingying said again: "Here, I would like to ask you, my generation of martial artists, what do you rely on to protect the territory and the people, what to rely on to protect your family relatives, or to save your own life! Could it be the kindness and mercy of the Song army? Is it the peace agreement of the civil servants? No, in this troubled world, only the sword in your hand is truly reliable!"

At this time, the soldiers had been instigated by Wu Yingying, and many brave people began to shout that whoever wanted to take the Tang soldier to cut him would want him to look good. In fact, the soldiers are in chaos because they have lost the control of the generals, and to a greater extent because of the fear hidden in their hearts, just like many modern soldiers have veteran syndrome, the solution is either to live a peaceful and comfortable life and gradually fade the memory and fear of life and death, or to guide the soldiers to turn this fear into trust in strength, the former is slow but thorough, and the latter is quick to work. Wu Yingying adopted the latter method at this time.

He also said: "You are all comrades and brothers in the army, and of course you know even more that except for the swords in your hands, those who fight alone and suffer losses, only when everyone unites as one and orders and prohibits can they survive in the troubled times! Although the lord of the country has decided on a policy of peace and how to settle us, there is no conclusion. We and the Song Dynasty have fought a bloody battle, and the hatred is great, if we are the first to mess up, I am afraid that the overall situation will be decided in the future, and the Song people will take advantage of us. Now the plan, look at how the Song people treat me Jinling Tang Army, if he treats each other well, then forget it, anyway, this flower country is not our family, if he turns his face and doesn't recognize people, everyone will work together to fight with him!"

In fact, his words were vaguely lingering in the hearts of many Tang soldiers, and immediately won widespread praise, and the soldiers felt that Wu Yingying was sincerely thinking about their life and death, and knew that this was not a big talker, but a capable general, and many people had a faint intention of belonging in their hearts.

Wu Yingying said: "Yihe and the Song army enter the city, the big thing is in two or three days, everyone and greet the comrades to go back to the camp to rest first, if someone really dares to hold a knife on our neck, Dedang and Lu Jiedu, Hu Jiedu together, swear to fight with it!" After speaking, he waved to the army.

At this time, where have the soldiers seen such demagogic preaching, not to mention that it is not the Yellow Turban and the Yellow Nest that speak, but the Jiedu envoy who has a great reputation, some of the soldiers suddenly agreed, and the rest were also suspicious, and they all carried the scattered finances looted in the middle of the night, and went back to the barracks in twos and threes. Wu Yingying's words that made the Tang army in the city prepare for contingency were also spread.

Seeing that Wu Yingying persuaded the rebellious soldiers away, the accompanying eunuch pressed his chest and sighed: "Ouch, I'm scared to death of the slave maid, fortunately Wu Jiedu is wise and martial, you said that the northerners haven't entered the city yet, why did we Jiangnan people get into trouble first." ”

Wu Yingying smiled freely, didn't say anything to him, turned around and returned to the car, he is this character, since he has decided to lead his subordinates to find a way out, he can't stop thinking about the appropriate strategy, until the eunuch outside the voice respectfully broke his thoughts: "Wu Jiedu, it's time to get out of the car." ”

Wu Yingying lifted the curtain, and couldn't help but be shocked, it turned out that the car driver did not stop at the palace gate, but passed through the gates and stopped in the square in front of the Guangzheng Palace, and the eunuch was quite embarrassed to explain to him: "Your Majesty is in the apse, and then there are thresholds in each door, and the carriages and horses can't pass, so please Wu Jiedu go with the slaves." ”

Wu Yingying nodded slightly, looked back and saw that Chase and the two guards were still pressing their swords and accompanying the guards by their sides, and secretly shook their heads in their hearts, it seems that there is already a lot of chaos in the palace, and for no reason they let the ministers enter the horses, and they also let the guards carry weapons.

Stepping into the inner hall with the eunuch, I saw Cai Yu, Queen Zhou, and Cai Tianhe, the royal child of the royal family when I paid tribute to Zhaohui last time, and the three of them were all in the palace. When Cai Yu saw him come in, he actually got up to greet him, and Zhou Hou also took Cai Tianhe's hand to follow.

Wu Yingying hurriedly walked a few steps and confessed: "There are some chaotic soldiers blocking the road and harassing on the road, Wu Yingying is late in responding to the edict, and I ask Your Majesty to forgive me!"

Cai Yu hurriedly held him up, with a sad look on his face, and sighed: "I have given up the ancestral inheritance, and I will not mention the word Your Majesty in the future." After speaking, he stared at Wu Yingying, almost making Wu Yingying feel a little embarrassed, and finally said: "Tianhe, come and see General Wu, whether my Jiangnan Cai family can continue the incense will be all up to General Wu!"

Cai Tianhe held Zhou Hou's hand tightly, although his face was naïve, his mind was precocious, and when he heard Cai Yu's greeting, he didn't twist it, and immediately walked to Wu Yingying, bowed to the ground, and said: "Boy Cai Tianhe meets General Wu." ”

Wu Yingying hurriedly shook his hand and said, "Little Prince, please get up, how can this be done!" as he said, he turned sideways to avoid this worship.

Cai Yu pulled him and forced Cai Tianhe to bow three times, and then said: "Wu Qing, since ancient times, there is no one who does not cut the grass and eradicate the roots. The Zhao family represented Zhou, claiming preferential treatment, but for more than ten years, Zhou Shizong's third sons, Chai Xijin, Chai Zongxun, and Chai Xirang, died violently one after another, and Chai repented and disappeared. Zhou knows how Zhao Kuangyin treats Zhao Kuangyin, and he can still do it, not to mention the princes from all over the world who have always been against him. ”

Wu Yingying was silent, and he said in his heart that he had always known that Zhao Song treated the Zhou clan very favorably, but he didn't know that several of Zhou Shizong's sons had died violently.

Cai Yu saw that Wu Yingying didn't speak, thinking that he was hesitating in his heart, and then said: "In today's world, Lone can see that once he returns to the Song Dynasty, most of the ministers are difficult to protect themselves, and it is difficult to expect them to protect the whole day and the strongmen, and most of the generals are reckless and unscrupulous. Entrusts big things, only Wu Qing. ”

Wu Yingying heard that he had already said it so clearly, so he had to bow down and say: "Your Majesty trusts you, and virtue can only do your best, and then die." ”

Cai Yu nodded with some relief and said, "Lone knows that he didn't see the wrong person." He hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Tianhe's life experience is also pitiful, so that Wu Qing knows that he is not only the Cai royal family, but also Lone's own blood and blood, which was born by Zhaohui successively." It's only because of the country's declining situation, in case of today's events, that he was fostered in Brother Wang's home, but this life experience, Lone only told him recently. ”

Wu Yingying was a little surprised when he heard this, and said in his heart that Cai Yu had expected that there would be a day of death, and even the back road of his most beloved son had been arranged, and he looked down at Cai Tianhe's face carefully, and there were indeed three or four points like Cai Yu, and two or three points like Zhou Hou. Since he is Cai Yu's biological flesh and blood, his identity is different, if he is according to the garbage script of later generations, this child can also be called his "young master", but the royal family in troubled times may not be as safe and happy as the heir of an ordinary big family.

Note: "Song Dynasty Anecdotal Compilation" recorded, Taizu first entered the city from Wuqiao, Emperor Zhou Gong that is, dressed in white clothes and took a sedan chair to live in Tianqing Temple, Sejong Festival name, and the temple of its merit is also. Taizu and the generals entered together, and the six palaces greeted. There are two children and horns, the palace people hold them, worship them, and inquire about them, which is King Ji and King □, the second son of Sejong. The generals said, 'What should you do here?' and then I took it away. However, Pan Mei held the pillar of the temple with her hand behind her, bowed her head and said nothing. Taizu said: 'Do you think it is impossible?' Mei said: "How dare the minister think that it is impossible, but Yu Li is not at peace." Taizu immediately ordered it to be returned, and he gave beauty to one person, and the beauty was accepted as a son, and Taizu did not ask again. After that, the only one who is right, is also. ...... The name is the aftermath. He is talented, handsome, and wise.

The author commented that preserving the bloodline of the old lord in the midst of the chaos is not something that Wenchen's lonely loyalty can use, but also depends on the strength of the generals; if Pan Mei is a Wenchen, does he dare to express this attitude? Could it be that Feng Dao and Fan Zhen, these famous ministers, have less affection for Zhou Shizong than Pan Mei? The records of the official history also refer to the fact that many of the Wenchen he trusted hurt Cai Yu for the Zhao family intentionally or unintentionally during the Bianliang period.
