Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 340 The Defense of Tokyo 28
At this time, the servant Wang Xiaojie led Li Bangyan, Cai Mao, and Zhang Qiyuan into the hall. Since Zhao Huan had already issued an edict, and the military situation was urgent tonight, the important officials of the two governments came from the capital hall and the Privy Council, and the servant led them directly into the Funing Hall.

Li Bangyan, Cai Mao, and Zhang Qiyuan didn't expect Zhu Lian to be in the Funing Hall, and the three of them stood at the door of the cabinet at the same time, not daring to enter again.

"I feel unwell occasionally, and the saint is here to accompany you. In an emergency, the Qing family doesn't need to be strict." Zhao Huan didn't intend to make Zhu Lian avoid him. Zhu Lian was by his side, which made him feel relieved.

Li Bangyan, Cai Mao and Zhang Qiyuan didn't care too much, they came in together, and Zhang Qiyuan handed over the memorial, saying: "Northern wall, Yao Pingzhong was ambush in the camp, and the Xuanfu envoy sent reinforcements to the army, and they are fighting fiercely with the captives outside the city."

"What, Zhongfu?" Before Li Bangyan could finish speaking, Zhao Huan grabbed the memorial and looked at it with trembling hands.Suddenly, the memorial fell to the edge of the couch. His hands rested on the edge of the couch, his body trembled violently, his face, which was already pale due to overwork, became even darker, his phlegm rose, his breathing became short of breath, and he yelled tremblingly for a long time: "This, how can this happen, how can this happen!"

Zhu Lian hurriedly supported Zhao Huan, patted his back lightly for him, and comforted him repeatedly: "Officials, officials, don't get too excited."

Li Bangyan, Cai Mao and Zhang Qiyuan didn't expect Zhao Huan's reaction to be so violent, they were so shocked that they were at a loss, and they didn't know how to comfort them.

After a long time, Zhao Huan was comforted by Zhu Lian's warm voice, and Zhu Lian fed him a cup of tea, and gradually calmed down, but his mood was still fluctuating.

"Is there any hope?" Zhao Huan still had a glimmer of hope for the war.

After looking sideways at Li Bangyan, Cai Mao said in a low voice: "The captives seem to be prepared, and the control has lost contact. The reinforcements from all walks of life are fighting hard with the captives." The implication of Cai Mao's words is very clear. In the situation of fighting each other, Yao Zhongping's army, who is the main attacker, is likely to be wiped out. This battle has completely failed.

"Where is Zhong Shidao? Where is he? Why didn't he mobilize the main force of Xuanfu Division to fight?" Zhao Huan thought of Zhong Shidao in his panic, and blamed Zhong Shidao for not sending troops to fight. He never thought that when planning this battle, he He and Yao Pingzhong didn't even count Li Gang, and only after Yao Pingzhong sent troops, he ordered Li Gang to send troops.

As for the Xuanfu Division of Zhong Shi Dao, Zhao Huan never issued an edict to send troops, not to mention that Zhong Shi Dao lived in the city, even if he got the news that the two armies were fighting outside the city, without the emperor's edict to send troops, he would not be able to go to war. Mobilize the troops of the kings from all walks of life.

Although King Qin's army was controlled by the Xuanfu Division, the military system of the Song Dynasty determined that the Qin King's army was not his subordinates. Not so absolute authority.

Li Bangyan and Cai Mao didn't mean to excuse Zhong Shidao, they didn't have a deep hatred for Zhong Shidao, but they were very displeased with Zhong Shidao's prestige and the favor they received.

"Mr. Zhong stayed in the city overnight, and most of the troops of the Xuanfu Division did not participate in the battle." Seeing that Li Bangyan and Cai Mao were pretending to be deaf and dumb, Zhang Qiyuan could only stand up by himself.

"Yao Zhongping was working hard outside the city, but he was sleeping soundly in the city?" Although Zhao Huan didn't think about anything else, he regretted the old man who was over seventy years old.

Not only Li Bangyan and Cai Wei were surprised, but even Zhu Lian frowned secretly. They all thought in unison: "The teacher's way has fallen out of favor!" '

All of a sudden, Zhao Huan cried loudly on the couch, his voice hoarse, and he kept pounding the couch with his hands, crying out sadly: "How can I be born, how can I be born!"

"Your Majesty, there is still room for redemption." Zhang Qiyuan gritted his teeth and took the initiative to say something.

Li Bangyan and Cai Mao's eyelids moved, and they looked at Zhang Qiyuan. Even Zhao Huan was surprised, staring at Zhang Qiyuan and said in a trembling voice: "Speak quickly, Qing family."

Zhu Lian saw that Zhao Huan was angry at times, pleasantly surprised at times, trembling constantly, and almost fainted. He didn't know how to persuade him, so he could only gently beat his back for him to relieve his breathlessness. so as not to cause spasms.

A few days ago, she advised Zhao Huan to follow Zhong Shidao's advice, and wait for Zhong Shizhong and Yao Gu's main force to arrive before proceeding to a decisive battle with the Jin army.Helplessly, Zhao Huan was eager to win, he only hoped that the battle would decide the world, and he said that he was angry, and he couldn't wait for the main force of the Western Army to arrive.

She had no choice but to settle for the next best thing, hoping to be less ostentatious and more secretive about the looting of the camp, but unfortunately Zhao Huan didn't take it to heart, and still made a lot of noise with great fanfare, so that it came to such a field.

Li Gang's delay in responding to the imperial edict, and his ignorance of being a teacher, although it is to vent his dissatisfaction with Zhao Huan's intervention, and perhaps punish Yao Pingzhong's arrogance, but their delay in dispatching troops may simply ignore them and take state affairs The way of venting his anger made Zhu Lian feel that the two of them were going too far, and he could understand Zhao Huan's angry mood.

Zhang Qiyuan pondered for a while, and said hesitantly: "Your Majesty ordered the battle, and Wang Xiu led his troops to cooperate. There is no news of him yet. You can issue an edict to let him attack Moutuogang quickly. There is still a chance for the war to turn."

"So, Wang Xiu's troops haven't participated in the war yet?" Zhao Huan's face changed, and he looked very ugly.

Zhu Lian's heart 'thumped' and kept beating, Zhang Qiyuan didn't feel good about it!Is it obvious that Wang Xiu missed the opportunity?The punishment at that time will be extremely severe.

"Maybe Taiwei Yao is in ambush, he is still lingering and watching."

Li Bangyan frowned slightly, looked at Zhang Qiyuan and said: "Your Majesty, Wang Xiusu knows the art of war. It seems that he has not moved for the time being. Maybe he has other plans. Back then, he led the army to attack Lanling with a few hundred horsemen and burned the Songjiang River. The grain and grass, and surprise troops have been sent out many times on the Liangzhe Road to save the situation, this time there must be a plan."

Zhu Lian glanced at Li Bangyan, he disliked Li Bangyan very much, even instinctively hated him.Even though Li Bangyan tried his best to protect Zhao Huan when he lived in the East Palace, and Zhao Huan also made great achievements when he came to the throne, but she couldn't feel good about it. At this moment, Li Bangyan defended Wang Xiu, but it made her eyes shine.

Zhang Qiyuan had the urge to slap himself, why talk so much!The first sentence caused Zhao Huan to suspect Wang Xiu, and the second sentence was purely superfluous. Coupled with Li Bangyan's help, Wang Xiu might become a successful minister.

Riding a tiger was hard to get off, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "In any case, Wang Xiu can no longer wait and see, and the 78th general should move forward bravely."

"The Qing family immediately used the Tiger Talisman to strictly order Wang Xiu to fight, and if there is a slight delay, he will be severely punished." Zhao Huan was in a state of anxiety, what a conspiracy!Hurry up and fight back the Jinjun.

"Yes." Zhang Qiyuan heaved a sigh of relief, and finally succeeded halfway, forcing Wang Xiu and the Jin army to fight a decisive battle, life or death on the battlefield.
