The Prince of Song Dynasty through the special forces

"That's all." Ma Kuo mentioned Wang Zhiyi, who died in Yongxin, and a trace of loneliness flashed across Zhao Zhen's face, the letter king. No matter what, Wang Zhiyi was also a general who had followed him for many years.Although Wang Zhiyi felt that his abilities were limited and he couldn't help Xin Wang Zhao Zhen, so he offered to garrison the place, but the Credible Wang Zhao Zhen never forgot Wang Zhiyi's previous achievements.Now that Wang Zhiyi died in Yongxin, Xinwang Zhao Zhen and all the old subordinates were very sad.As for Ma Kuo's pleading, Xin Wang Zhao Zhen didn't mean to blame him, and said: "General Wang's death was God's will, and has nothing to do with you. But this method of framing is extremely clever."

Ma Kuo immediately replied: "Return to the lord! This humble official dare not pretend to claim it, but it was Mr. Wu's suggestion to the humble official to put the crime of murdering Zhao Gou on Liu Tong."

"Hmm." Zhao Zhen, the letter king, naturally knew about it a long time ago. He glanced at Wu Liang who was standing behind Ma Kuo, and a flash of appreciation flashed in his eyes.This Wu Liang's ability is really good, he is worthy of being a celebrity.The most important thing is that Wu Liang is still very young and can help him in the future.Immediately, Xin Wang Zhao Zhen smiled and said: "I have known Wu Liang's talent for a long time. Wu Liang, this time you have made great achievements, and I will definitely reward you for your achievements."

"Thank you, sir." Although Xin Wang Zhao Zhen didn't say how to reward him, Wu Liang knew in his heart that Xin Wang Zhao Zhen was never stingy in this regard, and Wu Liang made a big splash this time. Under the military tent, Wu Liang is going to be very popular.

Immediately afterwards, the letter king Zhao Zhen praised everyone who participated in this time one by one, the skill of imperial servants, over the years, the letter king Zhao Zhen has become very familiar with each other.Afterwards, Xin Wang Zhao Zhen said to everyone: "Everyone here is my confidant, and I don't hide or hide it. Now that Zhao Gou is dead, what should I do next?"

"My lord, is there any need to think about it?" Hua Zhonglong, the most irritable, immediately shouted: "Since the emperor is dead, then of course the lord should be the emperor. Hu Tianqing, you are right Isn't it right?" As he said that, Hua Zhonglong bumped Hu Tianqing with his shoulder and winked at Hu Tianqing, obviously hoping to get support.

Hu Tianqing was still the same as before, with a simple and honest look on his face, he smiled, scratched the back of his head, and said, "Yes! Yes!" In fact, not only the two of them, most of the generals have the same attitude, I hope that the letter king Zhao Zhen can successfully succeed Zhao Gou of the Song Dynasty and ascend to the throne.

Regarding the proposal of Hua Zhonglong and others, Xinwang Zhao Zhen didn't comment, turned to look at Fu Xuan and other officials, and asked, "How is it? What's your opinion?"

Seeing the letter king Zhao Zhen asked him, Fu Xuan and others hesitated, took a deep breath, Fu Xuan replied: "Your Highness, this subordinate thinks that the time for His Highness to become emperor has not yet come." Fu Xuan's words But he has provoked Hua Zhonglong and other generals, if someone else said so, I'm afraid Hua Zhonglong's boss' fist would have already greeted him.It's just that Fu Xuan is a wise man of the Xinwangjun, the think tank next to the Xinwang Zhao Zhen, and has a high status in the Xinwangjun. Hua Zhonglong dare not be presumptuous to him. Although he dare not do anything, Hua Zhonglong and others are all staring at him. The bull's eye looked at Fu Xuan.

The eyes of Hua Zhonglong and others were fixed on his back, which made Fu Xuan feel like a light was on his back. Fu Xuan couldn't help but smiled wryly, but he still said to Zhao Zhen, the king of letters: "Your Highness, since the shame of Jingkang, the times To this day, the two emperors have not returned. Although your lord is now a prince and masters most of the country, you can see that Zhao Gou's repeated mutiny shows that everyone is dissatisfied with him. In the name of benevolence and righteousness, your father and brother are still not safe. How could your lord take the risk and proclaim the emperor easily? Your Highness wants to replace the Han, and I’m afraid it’s not the time yet. Please think twice, Your Highness.”

"Hmm." To Fu Xuan's remonstrance, Xin Wang Zhao Zhen just responded, but he also didn't comment, but Xin Wang Zhao Zhen didn't speak, and everyone in the room didn't dare to talk too much. I fell into a dull atmosphere for a while.After a while, Xin Wang Zhao Zhen raised his head, but suddenly turned his gaze to Ma Kuo, and asked, "Ma Kuo, what's your opinion?"

King Xin Zhao Zhen suddenly asked the chief hero who found him and supported him back then. None of Fu Xuan and others dared to talk too much. As the chief hero of Xin Wang Zhao Zhen, Ma Kuo would definitely control the government affairs of the Song Dynasty in the future.From Ma Kuo's point of view, it must be most beneficial for Xin Wang Zhao Zhen to become emperor.Xinwang Zhao Zhen asked Ma Kuo to answer such a sensitive question at this time, because he also wanted to hear the meaning of this loyal person.

But Ma Kuo didn't rush to answer the question of Xinwang Zhao Zhen, but thought for a while before answering: "My lord. I think that Uncle Huang and Grandpa Huang are now trapped in the Five Kingdoms City. If we ascend the throne now , just like that Zhao Gou, who doesn’t have much status. Besides, we have already placed the charge of murdering Zhao Gou on Liu Tong’s head, and now the evidence is solid, Liu Tong can’t distinguish the charge at all. The time when the prince used troops against Liu Tongjun. If the prince ascended the throne at this time, it would only place the prince at the top of the world's public opinion, and it would definitely have a great blow to the reputation of the prince. Therefore, the opinion of the humble minister is not to be called emperor for the time being , In the name of the Great Song Dynasty, wipe out the princes of all roads. After unifying the world, attack the Jin Kingdom in the north and rescue the two emperors. At that time, all the forces will belong to you, the prince, so you can naturally do whatever you want."

After listening to Ma Kuo's words, Xinwang Zhao Zhen nodded vigorously this time, obviously very satisfied with Ma Kuo's answer.As Fu Xuan analyzed before, now is indeed not the best time to become emperor, so from the very beginning, Xinwang Zhao Zhen never thought of becoming emperor at this time.The reason why Xin Wang Zhao Zhen asked Ma Kuo was also to test Ma Kuo's ability. It is definitely not wrong to suspend proclaiming the emperor, but what made Xin Wang Zhao Zhen most satisfied was Ma Kuo's analysis of this matter. Analyzing it from the angle that is most in line with his own interests, this is what Xinwang Zhao Zhen most wants to see.

"Ma Kuo's words are exactly what I want." Xin Wang Zhao Zhen nodded, but he concluded the matter.

"One more thing! The capital of Bianliang has been recovered by our army, and we are planning to move the capital to Bianliang. The headquarters of the General Command is also planning to move back to Bianliang. This is a big matter. Everyone needs to coordinate and work hard!" Xin Wang Zhao Zhen said Now, I will discuss with you various matters about returning to Bianliang.

At this time, a man walked quickly from outside the Palace of Discussion. It was Yao Da, the commander of Anbu who was absent before.Yao Da's complexion was not very good, and he walked quickly to the letter king Zhao Zhen, bowed to the letter king Zhao Zhen, and said: "My lord, my subordinates have an urgent military report." After speaking, he took out a silk scarf from his sleeve , directly above the head.

Without the letter king Zhao Zhen speaking, Ma Kuo took the initiative to step forward, took the silk scarf from Yao Da's hand, and handed it to the letter king Zhao Zhen.Seeing Yao Da's solemn expression, Xin Wang Zhao Zhen also knew that Yao Da's report must be serious, so he quickly opened the silk scarf and looked carefully.

While watching, Xin Wang Zhao Zhen's face also became gloomy, and finally snorted coldly, directly squeezed the silk scarf tightly in the palm of his hand and said with a sneer, "I never thought that this Xia Cheng would play such a trick."

After reading the secret report to everyone, Xin Wang Zhao Zhen also gradually calmed down.In fact, as long as Liu Tong can be wiped out in the future, it will be another big step forward for Zhao Zhen, the king of faith, to realize his dream of unifying the world.And Xin Wang Zhao Zhen patted his thigh, and said: "Forget it. I'll take advantage of that kid Xia Cheng. I'll clean up Liu Tong first, and then I'll settle the score with Xia Cheng slowly."

"Your Highness." At this time, there was a sudden loud shout, which shocked everyone. Xin Wang Zhao Zhen looked up, and saw a tall figure standing up from the crowd, but it was Zhao Zhen who had already been trusted. General Wang Hu transferred back from Wugong Mountain.At this moment, Wang Hu was different from his usual calmness. He clasped his fists at Xin Wang Zhao Zhen with an angry face and shouted: "Your Highness, the last general invites you to fight. I would like to be the vanguard, attack Liu's army for my lord, and take Liu Tong's head."

For Wang Hu's sudden pleading, Xin Wang Zhao Zhen was stunned for a moment, but soon understood the reason, it was all because of Wang Zhiyi's death.In Japan, Wang Hu should have stayed in Yongxin, but later Wang Zhiyi snatched it away. When the news of Wang Zhiyi's death came, Wang Hu kept blaming himself. In his opinion, Wang Zhiyi died in his place.On that day, Wang Hu had sworn that if something happened to Wang Zhiyi, he would kill Liu Tong's family.This time the letter king Zhao Zhen raised troops to attack Liu's army, how could Wang Hu stay out of it?

Originally, with Wang Hu's ability, it didn't matter if the vanguard was given to him. In Wang Hu's current state, if he was the vanguard, don't be tricked by Zhao Guang.Xin Wang Zhao Zhen thought it over and over again, finally nodded and said: "Wang Hu, it is not impossible to let you be the vanguard. However, you must agree to one condition." He gave orders.

The current Jizhou City is undoubtedly the closest city to the border between Xin Wangjun and Liu Jiajun, and as the capital of a state, Jizhou City is not a small city.As a border city, the Liu family army has put a lot of effort into this city, especially since the murder of Zhao Gou, Liu Tong has sent nearly 5000 troops to garrison the city.Zhong and Chao Guang, the only surviving veterans among the four veterans who followed the Liu family army, served as the coach and deputy general respectively, and Bai Hexing, the counselor, assisted him, which showed that Liu Tong attached great importance to this city.

And in a small valley located [-] miles west of Jizhou City, a troop is quietly lurking here. This troop is the vanguard army led by Wang Hu, and its goal is to crusade against Liu's army.

Because it is temporarily stationed here, the vanguard army didn't even prepare the camp, and just rested on the spot. Among the vanguard army, Wang Hu, the coach of the vanguard army, sat on a big rock, and two people sat on his left and right. They are Wu Liang and Lexi respectively.

This was also one of the conditions that Xin Wang Zhao Zhen agreed to Wang Hu to serve as the vanguard that day, that is to let Wu Liang and Lexi be Wang Hu's lieutenants, and Wang Hu had to follow Wu Liang and Lexi's suggestions along the way.

Needless to say Wu Liang, Lexi's temperament is also extremely calm, with the two of them assisting Wang Hu, Xin Wang Zhao Zhen can rest assured to hand over the vanguard to Wang Hu.

This time, Wang Hu made up his mind to destroy the Liu family army and avenge Wang Zhiyi, so he didn't want to waste time. If it weren't for Wu Liang and Lexi's life and death, Wang Hu would have already taken the vanguard army to attack at this time. Jizhou city.

"General Wang Hu. There are quite a few defenders in Jizhou City. Our strength is not superior, and it is difficult to win by force." Wu Liang persuaded Wang Hu earnestly. He didn't want to mess up a real expedition because of Wang Hu's impulsiveness.

Lexi on the other side also persuaded: "That's right! General Wang Hu. This is the first battle of our vanguard army. If we lose, then the general will probably not be able to seek revenge from Liu? It's better to calm down and Let's think about it, is there any other good way to reduce the loss and take this Jizhou City smoothly."

In fact, Wang Hu is not the kind of person who is too impulsive. He was just dazzled by hatred for a while. After being persuaded by Wu Liang and Lexi, Wang Hu calmed down temporarily, nodded with a gloomy face, and said : "In your opinion, is there any good way?"

Wang Hu's question showed that he had given up his plan to forcibly attack Jizhou City. Wu Liang and Lexi were both relieved.Immediately, Wu Liang frowned and said, "The veterans stationed in Jizhou City are General Zhong and Chao Guang. Besides, there is Bai Hexing. Huizhong and Chao Guang have high prestige in the Liu family army. With them Sitting in the town, the Liu family's army will definitely display the greatest combat effectiveness. I have met Bai Hexing when I was in the Liu family's army. Although he is not comparable to Zhao Guang, he is definitely a first-class wise man. With him , I am afraid it will be more difficult for us to let the other party be fooled!"

When Wu Liang said this, Wang Hu became a little irritable again, and said: "According to this, isn't there no other way? Hmph. It's better to attack by force. I don't believe it anymore. What will Zhong and Chao Guang be? Old man, how can you get me?"

What Wang Hu said was not completely unreasonable. In terms of fame, Wang Hu had made great achievements in the past two years in Xin Wangjun, which was much higher than Hui Zhong and Chao Guang.As for martial arts, Wang Hu has long been a master of martial arts, but Hui Zhong and Chao Guang's skills are far behind him. I am afraid that even if the two of them are added together, they may not be able to compare with Wang Hu.

Wu Liang and Lexi also understood these things, but the problem was that when the two armies were fighting, it wasn't just the generals who were competing.There are so many powerful generals in the world, and most of them died tragically under the siege of the army in the end.Now the vanguard army is fighting a siege battle, but the number of defenders in the city is no less than that of the vanguard army. If they want to fight recklessly, the vanguard army has no chance of winning.

Therefore, seeing Wang Hu intending to attack again, Wu Liang hurriedly said: "General Wang Hu, don't worry. Please ask your subordinates to think about it, and they will definitely be able to come up with a good solution." Being forced by Wang Hu, Wu Liang His forehead started to sweat, it seems that the position of deputy general is not easy.

Of course, Lexi would not let Wu Liang take on this important task alone, and he also followed to appease Wang Hu while helping Wu Liang think of ideas.Wu Liang's brain began to work quickly. Since ancient times, the strategies for attacking the city are all kinds of strange things, but in summary, they are nothing more than deceit, sneak attack, fire attack, water attack and so on. start from one aspect.

Lexi on the side also started talking to himself: "Then Huizhong and Chao Guang are veterans who have experienced many battles. It is almost impossible to cheat the gates of the city they are guarding. And that damn Bai He Xing gets in the way."

Back then, Lexi followed Xin Wang Zhao Zhen to participate in the battle to pacify Wugong Mountain. It was that battle that allowed Xin Wang Zhao Zhen to lead his troops to gain a foothold on Zhao Gou's territory.And in that battle, Bai Hexing's Bai family was wiped out by the army of Xin Wang Zhao Zhen, and Bai Hexing's elder brother also died in the rebellion army.After that battle, Bai Hexing left the old Bai Wugong Mountain, defected to other places, and finally joined the Liu family army.

Hearing what Lexi said, Wu Liang's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had thought of something, he raised his head, looked at Lexi with wide eyes, and said, "General Le, I have a solution."

Another day passed in a blink of an eye. In Jizhou City, although there was no news of the enemy's attack, Huizhong, who had always been cautious, ordered the city gate to be closed and was ready to meet the enemy at any time.This time, the trouble Liu Jiajun caused was big enough. If he did not act carefully, the foundation that Liu Jiajun worked so hard to build back then would be ruined.

In the Chengshou Mansion of Jizhou City, the man who sits here is not the commander-in-chief Huizhong, nor the deputy general Chao Guang, but Bai Hexing, the counselor who came here specially to assist Huizhong this time.Both Huizhong and Chao Guang stayed in the barracks, ready to fight at any time, so it is more appropriate to leave the city guard for Bai Hexing, a powerless literati.

It was late at night, and in the wing room in the backyard of the Chengshou Mansion, Bai Hexing, who was already sound asleep, started to sweat profusely, with a hint of panic on his face.After a while, Bai Hexing suddenly exclaimed, opened his eyes, and jumped up from the bed.The startled Bai Hexing was covered in cold sweat, panting heavily, and looked around in horror. After confirming that he was in his own room, he breathed a sigh of relief and lay back on the bed weakly.

"My lord! My lord! What's the matter?" At this time, the question from the soldiers of the Liu family army guarding the backyard came from outside the window, obviously attracted by Bai Hexing's exclamation just now.

"I'm fine." Bai Hexing waved his hand in the direction of the window, and said, "You all stand down." No matter what, Bai Hexing can be regarded as an important minister of the Liu family army, and he has a very good face, so he doesn't want to be ugly. Be seen by these soldiers below.

"Uh! The villain obeys." Hearing Bai Hexing's order, the soldiers hesitated for a moment, and then retreated after confirming that Bai Hexing was really okay.

Ever since Huizhong and Chao Guang led the troops to leave, Bai Hexing, who stayed in the city, was always restless, but Bai Hexing couldn't figure out what the problem was, so he could only wait anxiously in the city guard's mansion News of Huizhong and Chao Guang's triumphant return.There are still nearly 2000 people in the city now, so as long as he is well prepared, Bai Hexing is not afraid of the enemy sneaking into Jizhou City at this time.

But two full days passed, but there was no news at all.In the past two days, Bai Hexing's mood became worse and worse.If Hui Zhong and Chao Guang succeeded, they should have returned by this time, but there is no news yet, which means that Hui Zhong and Chao Guang have indeed encountered an accident.

As for what caused Bai Hexing's confident ambush to fail this time, it is irrelevant now.What made Bai Hexing feel aggrieved and helpless the most was that none of the scouts he had sent came back, and now Bai Hexing had only 2000 troops under his command, so he didn't dare to go out to investigate the situation in a large group.

After walking back and forth in the hall for a few times, Bai Hexing called a soldier in and asked, "Is there a reply from Luzhou?"

The day before yesterday, when he learned that the Vanguard Army of King Xin's Army had arrived, Bai Hexing had already asked someone to report the military information to Luzhou.Now the entire Liu family army has not many troops, and they have to guard against Wang Zongshi's navy, so the soldiers and horses in Jizhou city are already nearly half of Jizhou's troops.

If Jizhou City is in danger, Bai Hexing can't expect to get much assistance from the rear. The only hope is Liu Tong in Luzhou.And the soldier who was questioned quickly replied: "My lord. There is no news yet, and I don't think it will arrive so soon." It takes at least three days to rush from Jizhou to Luzhou, even on a good fast horse. I'm afraid that none of the scouts sent has arrived in Luzhou yet, let alone replied to the letter.
