Chapter 884
The destruction of Bingzhou City is undoubtedly a good news worth celebrating. At least Long Lingxiu is full of joy now, because in her opinion, as long as Bingzhou is broken, it will not be easy for Lu Zheng to annex the Central Plains in one go. The Central Plains will rest assured. Long Lingxiu has already mastered almost all the resources of the Central Plains, and the next world will be under her control.
But Tan Lei had no joy on his face. He just felt frustrated. Long Lingxiu was always so domineering. Anything she believed would definitely be done, even if it was a huge price for it.
Every soldier in Tan Lei's hands is a treasure. He just went to die in vain. Can Tan Lei still gain a foothold in the Central Plains in the future?
As soon as he thought of this, Tan Lei said: "Your Highness, although Bingzhou may be taken, Lu Zheng of the Central Plains has absolute combat power. We cannot be careless in dealing with such an opponent!
Your Highness, you have fought with this person a lot over the years. What role does this character still remind you? For the sake of this plan, we should first think about Your Majesty. As long as Your Majesty is safe, we ministers will have no worries. As for the situation in the Central Plains, we can wait a little longer!"
Long Lingxiu raised her eyebrows and said angrily: "Wait? What are you waiting for? Wait until Lu Zheng breaks through the capital and lets you and me become his captives? Now Bingzhou is broken, the northwest army has entered the country, and Cao Weiming is alive. There are nearly 100,000 troops in the north and 70,000 troops in the north and south. We will destroy Lu Zheng in the two rivers. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If we miss this opportunity, we will have no future!"
Long Lingxiu stared at Tan Lei with a very bad face and said, "Tan Lei, I know you are afraid of Lu Zheng. This person is a powerful person. But the more you are afraid of this person, the more you want to fight. If you lose your courage, this person will be arrogant, and the result will make you more and more embarrassed, and you will even be dead without a place to die. Do you understand?"
Tan Lei pursed his lips and said nothing, just cursing the woman as a madman in his heart. At the same time, he also knew that this woman could not compromise anyway. In this case, Tan Lei must send troops from the capital, otherwise he would not be able to pass this level.
He returned to his palace in depressedly. Tan Lei counted his troops, but he was still worried. He said to his left and right: "Bingzhou is going to be broken, what should you do? Should you take this opportunity to send troops quickly?"
Everyone looked at each other, and didn't know how to answer this question! Tan Lei's mind was the most complicated. If he didn't understand his inner thoughts, he would easily be hated by him. In fact, many subordinates of Tan Lei ended up in a good way for various reasons. The person who took action was Tan Lei.
Tan Lei has ambitions but not a heroic mind. Look at his subordinates, seven or eight of the ten strategists are nepotism. Looking at the generals under his command, they all have personal relationships. Otherwise, they would never be reused by Tan Lei.
Everyone was silent, but the general Sun Xiaozhou was not afraid. He said, "Lu Zheng is ambitious. If we lose the two rivers, we are afraid that the capital will not be able to be saved. Since we are going to die, it is better to send troops now and take this opportunity to fight with Lu Zheng in the two rivers. Maybe Lu Zheng's army will be in chaos and we will find a good opportunity?"
He paused and said, "Bingzhou City is broken, what is the Northwest Army and Cao's Army the same place? At this time, it was the time when the Liaodong Army was depressed. The eldest princess was able to see this opportunity to send troops. Can the prince follow this meaning!"
Tan Lei's face became more and more ugly. He glanced at Sun Xiaozhou and snorted softly. Sun Xiaozhou was his favorite concubine's younger brother, otherwise he would be angry immediately!
Seeing this scene, some strategists found out about Tan Lei's thoughts and came over and said, "Prince, the eldest princess's life cannot be violated. Your Majesty, we will save you again. Then the prince can lead 10,000 or 20,000 elite troops out of the capital. We are also from the Liaodong Iron Cavalry, and the elite Iron Cavalry is no less than Lu Zheng.
The key is that the prince comes and goes like the wind. He just needs to go to Henan to receive His Majesty. This matter will be correct, right?"
Tan Lei's face was gloomy and gloomy. On the one hand, he wanted to save Long Zhaoyan because Long Zhaoyan was the emperor of the Dakan Dynasty. If Long Zhaoyan was not there, there would be no Dakan Dynasty. What is his identity as Tan Lei? That is typical of him, he, became a traitor!
Another most important reason is that Tan Lei is restless after all. He is unwilling to stay dormant under Long Lingxiu's majesty. Long Lingxiu is too strong and has too great ambitions. To restrain this woman, Long Zhaoyan must be needed.
Long Zhaoyan is still powerful. As long as Long Lingxiu can be restrained by Long Zhaoyan, Tan Lei feels that he will have another day of rise. In this situation, Lu Zheng's cavalry is like a tiger, with a majestic momentum. Long Zhaoyan is in danger. Long Lingxiu sits firmly on the Diaoyutai. He thought that Long Zhaoyan died at Lu Zheng's hands!
Because Long Zhaoyan is gone, if Dagan Chao wants to gain a foothold, someone will ascend the throne again. Now, only Long Lingxiu is born in the royal family in the entire Central Plains, and she has mastered all the situations. Who else can she be if she wants to ascend the throne?
When Tan Lei thought that this woman would ascend the throne, he couldn't help but shivered. He immediately decided to lead his troops out of the city and rush to Henan to rescue Long Zhaoyan at all costs.
Tan Lei sent troops, and the battle of Bingzhou was also very fierce at this time. Song Wensong led a large army to attack Bingzhou quickly. Tens of thousands of people came immediately and fought for their lives without fear of death. Such an offensive made the Bingzhou defenders very difficult.
In almost one day, Li Xiu used up all the turmeric oil, saltpeter, and Julu horses guarding the city! The rolling stones on the top of the city were also exhausted, and the corpses outside the city were piled up like mountains.
Song Wensong stood outside Bingzhou City on a horse. He held a long spear in his hand and shouted angrily: "Listen, the Bingzhou Guardian, you know the truth, and you will go back to Liaodong early. This time I came from Yincheng and never return until you break Bingzhou. How can you defend the city walls and not fall? Since you can't defend, why do you ignore the lives and death of the soldiers? As long as you get out of here, I will keep it and make way for you!"
Li Xiu stood on the top of the city wall, laughed and said, "I said who is going to attack my Bingzhou? It turned out to be Song Wensong! Hehe, the surname of Song, you were beaten by the Northwest Army and ran away like a dog. If I were my prince to save you at that time, you would have become a dry bone in the tomb.
You are less than a year away from me northwest, but today you actually lead troops to attack me. You are so ungrateful, like you, are not as good as that beast. How can you break the city of Bingzhou, just shameless people like you?
Come on, let alone tens of thousands of people, even tens of thousands of people, it is just a native chicken and a treasure! My prince dares to let you go back because it is easy for my prince to cure you. Haha, wait, wait for my prince to come and go, your dog head!"
Li Xiu cursed, making Song Wensong blush. He originally wanted to give birth to customs and also to shave the morale of the defenders. Unexpectedly, stealing chickens would not lose the rice. Instead, he was at a disadvantage and was furious for a moment, and the soldiers under his opponent gave a death order.
Look, there are still tens of thousands of Cao troops south of Bingzhou. Cao Xuanhua led his troops to endure more than ten days. The soldiers were already in rags, and their eyes were green with hunger.
In order to save his life, Cao Xuanhua even ordered the killing of horses to satisfy his hunger, which barely guaranteed that the tent of the 20,000 troops would not fall.
After the battle of Bingzhou started, Cao Xuanhua immediately summoned all the soldiers. He stood on a high place and shouted arrogantly:
"Dear brothers, Bingzhou City is about to be destroyed, and our reinforcements are coming!"
When he shouted, the soldiers and generals who were originally in despair were shocked, and then they made a deafening sound. The joy of escaping from death actually made the morale in the army soar.
Cao Xuanhua said again: "The prince moved back to the northwest to rescue the soldiers. At this time, we can no longer be idle. There are 50,000 stones of food and grass in Bingzhou City. Whoever breaks the city first will have food first. Brothers, at this moment, we immediately kill the horses and have a full meal, and then quickly kill me to Bingzhou City and capture Bingzhou. We will establish immortal magic for the prince!"
I have to say that Cao Xuanhua is a powerful character. In this case, he made Cao Weiming's tens of thousands of troops scream, which is what is called "destruction and dedication".
On this side, Song Wensong fought very fiercely. Cao Xuanhua led tens of thousands of troops to join the war immediately. Bingzhou was under pressure and the city was in danger. At the critical moment, Li Xiu personally went to the city to supervise the battle. Seeing that he was wearing armor, covered in blood...
In Song Wensong's military tent, Song Wensong closed his eyes slightly, as if he had fallen asleep. After a long time, Di Qinghai slowly came over.
Song Wensong suddenly opened his eyes and said, "How?"
Di Qinghai said: "It's more than 300 miles from here to return to Yincheng. The general needs to turn back quickly, and most of the soldiers and generals have to evacuate. In this way, Bingzhou may not be able to conquer it."
Song Wensong shook his head and said, "Sir, don't worry, Bingzhou will be destroyed! Although the soldiers under Cao Weiming's command cannot be compared with my northwest cavalry, they survived in a desperate situation and were already crazy at this time!
I will send you ten thousand stones of grain and labor troops to give them a little fire. We will ignore the matters in Bingzhou!"
When Song Wensong said this, he suddenly stood up and said, "Our fighter plane has appeared. This time we will fight to the death. I will order me. At midnight tonight, our army will only leave one of them here. The rest of us will return to Yincheng. To the north of Yincheng, we occupy the favorable terrain and let the people from Liangzhou come and go without returning!"
After saying this, Song Wensong became completely different from the sleepy sleepy ones just now!
