Chapter 134: Rumors are spreading, and the army is in turmoil

"Did you know that something big happened not long ago. It was already about one o'clock in the evening, and a merchant with a gold ring on his hand was talking at an old friend's house.

"What's a big deal, is the price of agate rising again?" The old man sitting opposite him chuckled and shook his head, and drank tea, which clearly did not know.

"The two countries of the Great Xia Kingdom and the Great Liao Kingdom are about to join forces to fight us, the two countries, each of them is equivalent to ours in strength, and now it is ......" He stopped only halfway through the words, and finally stared at the old man who was drinking tea.

When the old man heard this, he was slightly stunned, and a lot of tea in his hand instantly spilled out.

The old man asked in disbelief: "How true is this news?"

The rich merchant said without any hesitation: "You can basically believe it all, so I plan to let you flee to the south with me this time." ”

The old man stood up suddenly, frowned and said: "You're right, if the army is in trouble, I'm afraid that our Jiaodong region will be the first place to be captured, go immediately!"

Then a huge family began to stir up, and everything was loaded into a wagon, ready to flee.

The wounded one standing beside him slowly showed a strange smile, and the fan in his hand shook gently, and his purpose was achieved.

Many family members also hurriedly ran to the house to discuss the escape with the old father and mother of the family, because the rich businessman did not let the left and right retreat at all when chatting, which led to the fact that everyone in the whole family soon knew.

Not only that, but there are many places throughout the city where many people are saying the same thing, so that more people can know about it.

Almost in just a few hours, this news has spread wildly, and tens of thousands of people have learned of this news, at least thousands of them are on the way to flee.

None of the soldiers who were still listlessly looking at the city gate were suspicious of this matter, and one of them stepped forward to inquire about it, and he got this thing.

Immediately after that, the whole army began to be restless, and many people felt that the end of the world was imminent, because if they were caught, they would either be slaves or be killed directly!

Zhao Zhen was in a daze, but he was suddenly woken up by a border emergency report, but when he looked up, he couldn't help but be slightly startled, hurriedly retreated left and right, and walked to the battle map himself, frowning and staring at the first city that escaped.

Zhao Zhen said softly: "There is no doubt that this matter must have been sent by the enemy, and people carried out a lot of propaganda, if this kind of rumors spread, I am afraid that the border pass area of my Great Song Dynasty will collapse without a fight, if you want to stabilize the morale of the army, at least you must first catch and kill the people who spread rumors!"

Thinking of this, he hurriedly said in a loud voice: "Xu Xiujin will see you!"

After a while, two people quickly ran in and bowed, Zhao Zhen stretched out his hand and pulled the two of them up and said: "You immediately take the tiger talisman and mobilize three thousand soldiers to rush to Jiaodong, you must block the escape route to stabilize people's emotions, and thoroughly investigate the people who spread rumors, and kill them!"

After speaking, he turned around and drew out his matching sword, handed the sword in his hand directly to Xu Xiu and said, "Take this sword of mine, if there are disobedient or disobedient people, you can kill them directly." ”

Xu Xiu respectfully knelt down on one knee and said, "The minister must complete the task!" After speaking, he quickly left the main hall and rushed outside.

Zhao Zhen raised his head, and hurriedly summoned all the Wenchen, and began to fight together, and the two countries joined forces to attack.

Xu Xiu rushed all the way to the destination in the shortest possible time, quickly blocked the escape route, persuaded all the residents in the city to go back, and it took a long time to stabilize the people's hearts.

Although Zhao Zhen gathered all the civil ministers and military generals together, he did not talk to them himself.

He himself was frowning in his bedroom, slowly walking around in place, and the old man beside him did not make a sound, standing in the dark and looking at His Majesty, with that sad face.

At this point in time, I am afraid that His Majesty is thinking about some major issue, if he interrupts at this moment, he will be scolded and scolded, and he will be dragged out to fight.

So he didn't speak.

Zhao Zhen continued to walk around in place, he was thinking about weighing the pros and cons, the only person he could think of who could reverse this battle was only one. General Di Qing!

It's just that now, this person doesn't know anymore, and it's even more difficult to find him, not to mention that he has basically forced him to a dead end back then, and I'm afraid it's already very difficult to ask again.

This kind of thing was not actually known to the imperial court for the first time, but the people of the rivers and lakes closest to them, and among the people of the rivers and lakes, there was an omniscient and omniscient god of the rivers and lakes!

It is still a green mountain and green water, it is still a small boat, driving on this turquoise river, it is still a person with a hat on his head, wearing a coat, holding a fishing rod in his hand, quite a kind of Jiang Taigong fishing, willing to take the bait.

On top of the boat was a box with a stack of letters on top of it, on which were the records of what had just happened.

Di Qing had already finished browsing, but he didn't speak, he was still quietly on the boat, he was still thinking, not thinking about whether he could do this thing.

The enemy is very clever and even spread the rumor to the entire border area in advance, so that the people in a city are all panicked, and if you want to have this effect, then it must be a lot of people to achieve it.

Now I am afraid that everyone knows that if this matter wants to settle down, it is not so easy, it is better to fight poison with poison, and simply let it continue to develop.

What should really be paid attention to is that a certain word of the rumor should be adapted, not that the two countries joined forces to destroy the Song Dynasty, but that the Great Song Dynasty and one of the members of the anti-Song Dynasty joined forces to destroy the remaining one.

If you want to achieve the maximum effect in the shortest time, then you can only get more people to spread it at twice the rate.

It's a little late now, and it's okay if you fall into all the people overnight.

It's just that he's still wondering if there's any other way to do it.

But after thinking about it, he finally decided to use this one of the most unmethodary methods, not only that, he dispatched two roads at the same time, all the way to Jiaodong, after all, the enemy's first battle is likely to attack there, and Jiaodong has been a battleground since ancient times.

In addition, there is a city where the people are already a little flustered, so this is the best time, if it is not surprising, I am afraid that the enemy's army has already been arranged on the border between the two countries.

If that's the case, I'm afraid all the hard work will be over, but he still wants to give it a try.

This group of men and horses rushed directly into the enemy's capital, and used their own way to govern them, to put it simply, to spread rumors to their capital.

He also had to consider what kind of rumors could spread across multiple layers and cause an earth-shattering shock.

Then there is undoubtedly only one, that is, the elite troops of the Great Song Dynasty have come around from the rear and are ready to directly attack the base camp and smash Huanglong, and there is no news that can shock the enemy more than this.

It's just that time is a bit tight, and it doesn't necessarily achieve the desired effect, but it can only try.

The desert is lonely, the sun has not yet appeared, the whole desolate desert feels the slightest cold, and above the desert is a dense crowd of soldiers, ready to go.

It's already the fourth watch, and the rumors should have spread throughout the Jiaodong region a long time ago, and the boss is secretly speculating in his heart, I'm afraid that everyone is already panicking now, and they are on the verge of collapse.

The commander who led the soldiers was the only swordsman in the rivers and lakes in the past, Xuanyuan.

He was riding a tall horse and looking at the city that was about to be captured by him, and suddenly he said in a loud voice: "We have not rested all night, and this is the purpose! I have made another sentence here, whoever can stand on the top of the city first, I will reward him alone, a thousand taels of silver!" After a roar, followed by a roar that shook the sky, a huge army of tens of thousands rushed forward.

The shouts of killing shook the sky, and even many soldiers who were napping opened their confused eyes.

"What's going on, what's going on?" was the first reaction of most people, followed by Luo Shengtian.

Everyone quickly ran out to gather, and then there was a shouting and killing sound that made people's scalps tingle, and the sound of killing was deafening.

Densely packed like locusts, the general enemy army was killed mightily, not to mention the difference in numbers, with his momentum, the Song army had already been defeated.

Bows and crossbows were fired at the head of the city and some of the unlucky soldiers, and the tall siege ladders had already been erected, and some of the soldiers had just put on their armor and rushed to the city wall, and they had already been hacked to death by the enemy.

When the people in the city heard this, they were all even more frightened, and even ignored the interception of the officers and soldiers, and some even kicked the officers and soldiers to the ground and continued to flee.

It was already unstoppable, and the hearts of the people were shattered, and everyone began to flee.

Even the soldiers defending the city already felt a chill behind their backs, and even imagined in his mind that once they stood on top of the city, they would die in Huangquan.

The dense rain of arrows overhead continued, and the sound of shouting and killing rose higher and higher, and the enemy army was about to drown the entire castle like the waves of the sea.

Everyone knew that this city could not be saved, no matter what, unless a large number of reinforcements arrived now, but it was too late.

Because finally a few enemies stood on top of the city, cut down the military flag of the Great Song Dynasty with one sword, and planted it in the Great Liao.

This was followed by a mighty shout, and one after another Liao soldiers ascended to the top of the city, and there was no doubt that the battle had been lost.
