By the time Wang Kuang hurried to the castle mansion, the mansion was already noisy. In the discussion palace, both Wang Kang and Xia Shanyue were flushed with thick necks, staring at each other, wishing to take each other alive. On the other side, Lin Tao also sat there with a sullen expression, his eyes closed, and he seemed to be so angry that he didn't want to speak.
As soon as he saw this scene, Wang Kuang cried out something bad, and immediately stepped into the discussion palace and said to the three people in the hall with a smile: "Big Brother! General Xia! General Lin Tao! What's wrong with you?"
Perhaps it was because Wang Kuang was Wang Kang's younger brother. Xia Shanyue, who was arguing with Wang Kang, didn't have a good face when he met Wang Kuang. It's just that he stretched out his hand and didn't hit the smiling face, Wang Kuang's current appearance, Xia Shanyue was not good at making bad words at Wang Kuang. With a cold snort, he turned his face away, ignored Wang Kuang, and sat on his side. When Lin Tao saw Wang Kuang coming in, his face improved a little, and he nodded to Wang Kuang as a greeting.
Wang Kang immediately took a step forward, grabbed Wang Kuang’s hand, and shouted, “Brother Wang Kuang, you came just right. Back then, our Wang family mistaken the Song Emperor Zhao Zhen’s plot to frame the Emperor Zhao Zhen’s plot, and we suffered annihilation. Later, our brothers When I took refuge in the Jiangnan East Road Jingwei, the Jiangnan East Road Jingwei also promised us personally to give us a chance to take revenge. Now Song Emperor Zhao Zhengou is here. I want to lead my troops to take revenge. Coco They are obstructing in every possible way. Why do they want to. Huh! Xia Shanyue. A certain family left the words here today. Whether you agree or not, now the commander of the army is me. I have decided. I will rise tomorrow and attack Nan'an Military City."
"No!" Wang Kang acted arbitrarily. Lin Tao and Xia Shanyue screamed at the same time. Xia Shanyue's ass just touched the seat, and immediately jumped up and shouted: "Wang Kang! This Xia Jun can't have your turn. Nonsense. Your lord gave you the soldiers and horses, not for you to defeat these soldiers. If you dare to do this, I will immediately deprive you of your command and escort you to the Supreme Court."
"Huh!" Xia Shanyue said, Wang Kang snorted coldly, and glanced at Xia Shanyue obliquely. A cold light flashed. Wang Kuang, who was familiar with Wang Kang, immediately realized that Wang Kang was against Xia Shanyue. Killing intent.
Wang Kuang screamed in his heart secretly, if it was just a quarrel, it didn't matter. But if you really start, the problem will be big. This Xia Shanyue is the younger brother of the Jiangnan East Road Jinglue, and is a child of the Xia clan. If Wang Kang and the Xia clan become stiff, it will be difficult for the two brothers to get along in Xia's army in the future.
Immediately, before Wang Kang became angry, Wang Kuang stepped in between Wang Kang and Xia Shanyue. He smiled and said to Xia Shanyue: "General Xia put an end to his anger, brother is just a moment of anger! There is no other meaning." Then, Wang Kuang secretly pulled his armour with the back of his hand, reminding Wang Kang not to be impulsive.
Lin Tao, who was on the side, did not sit down at this moment, although he had a few quarrels with Wang Kang and Xia Shanyue before Wang Kuang came, but he was much calmer than Wang Kang and Xia Shanyue. He knew the current situation, and he absolutely couldn't let Wang Kang and Xia Shanyue make a fuss too much.
Seeing that Wang Kuang stopped Wang Kang, Lin Tao also took a step forward, blocking Xia Shanyue, and said to Xia Shanyue: "Xia Shanyue, Xiu must be impulsive. Don't forget, the adults appointed General Wang Kang as the coach, since the adults have arranged this way. , Naturally has his deep meaning, even if you have different opinions, you can't be so rude."
Lin Tao was one of the warriors who followed Xia's righteous son's elder brother to join Xia Cheng in the early days. Under Xia Cheng's account, he was considered a veteran. Although Xia Shanyue had a temper, he was not good at losing Lin Tao's face. Moreover, Lin Tao moved out of Xia Cheng again, and Xia Shanyue had a fire in his heart, so he could only force it down, and sat down again, turning his head to sulking there.
Seeing that Xia Shanyue was temporarily pacified, Lin Tao turned his head and said to Wang Kang: "General Wang Kang, what you said just now is not right. Although you are the commander of the army, the adults also let me and Xia Shanyue serve as lieutenants. In order to help you command the army together. Our duty is to ensure that your orders will not be wrong. I also think that attacking Nan'an Military City is not a good idea. My lord said that day, you should not have a head-on conflict with the Song Army. . You avenge your personal revenge and ignore the advice of the adults. How can we sit back and watch?"
Wang Kuang sighed. He didn't want to avenge his family, but he couldn't be blinded by hatred like Wang Kang. Regardless of whether Xia Cheng would allow Wang Kang to act so arbitrarily, even if Xia Cheng allowed Wang Kang to send troops, with the 10,000 people under Wang Kang, it would be impossible to go to Nan'an Military City and defeat Song Emperor Zhao Zhen's Song Army army.
According to intelligence, in order to defeat Liu Tong, Emperor Zhao Zhen used more than 200,000 soldiers from the Song army. Although nearly half of it was not an army, and the soldiers and horses who were sacrificed and stationed in Nan'an Military City and Luzhou were removed, there are currently nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses in Nan'an Military City! Not only that, Song Emperor Zhao Zhen’s current campaign, surrounded by generals like clouds, Song Emperor Zhao Zhen himself is an invincible powerhouse, and other fierce men such as Lin Yuhu and Hu Tianqing follow Emperor Song. Zhao Zhen's side. Killing Wang Kang like this is really no different from sending him to death.
Thinking of this, Wang Kuang could only follow Lin Tao to persuade Wang Kang: "General Wang, General Lin Tao said it is very true. The so-called gentleman's revenge, it is not too late for ten years. Right now is not the best time for us to take revenge. If it is rashly Sending troops will not only fail to avenge revenge, but will also pay for the army for nothing, and it will destroy the plan of the adults. Please think twice about the army!"
Seeing Wang Kuang also began to persuade himself, Wang Kang's face was white and green for a while, and his iron fists were clenched and loosened. After a long time, Wang Kang exhaled heavily, finally snorted, turned his head and sat back in his seat. And seeing Wang Kang's reaction, Wang Kuang was also relieved, which meant that Wang Kang had also given up his ideas, and he finally persuaded Wang Kang. Immediately, Wang Kuang turned his head and said to Lin Tao: "General Lin Tao, what should we do next?"
Lin Tao glanced at Xia Shanyue behind him with a wry smile, and said to Wang Kuang, "We have not yet made a decision on this point. Xia Shanyue's opinion is to go north, and my opinion is to go west, and even go straight. Take the British state. As for the opinion of General Wang Kang..." At this point, Lin Tao will not say anything, but even so, Wang Kuang also understands that Wang Kang’s opinion is nothing but the army, and the Song army is concentrated. Naturally, it is impossible to agree to this absurd opinion in Nan'an Military City.
Wang Kuang frowned and lowered his head to think about it. From his point of view, he agreed with Lin Tao's suggestion. Now Song Emperor Zhao Zhen's army has captured the Nan'an Army City, and there are too many Song Army in the Nan'an Army. If you continue to attack the Nan'an Army, it is impossible not to conflict with the Song Army. But the problem is that Xia Cheng gave them the task before, taking advantage of the time of the Song Army, to seize as many Nan'an army cities as possible, if you just turn your head and attack other places, wouldn't it be against Xia Cheng's order?
"Does this still need to be considered? It must have been obeying the adult's order and proceeding to the northwest." Seeing Wang Kuang fell into silence, Xia Shanyue immediately sighed and insisted on his opinion. From Xia Shanyue's point of view, Xia Cheng is his own adult, he has not missed the decision he made, and naturally he has to obey Xia Cheng's orders.
"Humph!" Wang Kang who was on the side was not calm at the moment, he glared at Xia Shanyue, and said, "If I remember correctly, I am the commander of the army. I should decide how to act."
When Wang Kang said this, Xia Shanyue was going to be mad at once, and Lin Tao and Wang Kuang, who were next to him, also had a headache, and hurriedly stepped forward to separate the two again. After another argument, the two were soothed. Lin Tao and Wang Kuang glanced at each other. They both laughed bitterly, but they didn't know how to solve the problem.
At this moment, a soldier hurried over from outside the hall. He knelt down at the entrance of the hall, clasped his fists and shouted: "General! The enemy is found outside the city."
"Enemy?" The news was spit out from the soldiers. Everyone was shocked. Wang Kang and Xia Shanyue who were sitting in the seats even stood up directly. The tension between them immediately disappeared. Instead, there is another tense atmosphere. Several people glanced at each other, Lin Tao stepped forward and yelled at the soldier, "Have you ever seen the enemy's origin? How many people are there?"
The soldier immediately replied: "If you return to the general, the enemy will appear to the south, and the flag of the Song Army will be erected. It is roughly estimated that there are nearly 10,000 people."
"Sure enough, it is the soldiers and horses of the Song Army!" Although the answer was already guessed in their hearts, when they heard the soldier's answer, several people also exclaimed. With a calm face, Wang Kang shouted to the other three people: "Don't think too much, let's go to the city to see the situation." After saying that, Wang Kang walked directly outside, and the other three were just After a moment of stunned, he hurriedly followed.
Soon, Wang Kang and his team had arrived at the southern end of Chengxiang City, Meizhou, and stood at the head of the city and looked out of the city. At this moment, the enemy troops outside the city were already in a good position at a distance of nearly 500 steps from the city wall. And the moment Wang Kang looked out of the city, his entire face immediately turned blue, with blue veins bursting from his forehead, his eyes were red, his teeth were baring, and an aura exploded from his body, forcing him Several people around are a little untenable.
Xia Shanyue and Lin Tao both looked at Wang Kang in a little astonishment. They had never seen Wang Kang look like this. Even if they blushed with a thick neck after arguing, Wang Kang would not show such a vicious look. On the other side, Wang Kuang seemed to be taken aback by Wang Kang. He bit his head and shouted, "General. What's wrong with you?"
Wang Kang's eyes glared at the boss, staring straight out of the city, and his whole body even began to tremble. Wang Kang raised his hand and pointed at the enemy army outside the city. The name was from Wang Kang’s teeth. Squeezed out from the crack: "Zhao Zhen."
"Song Emperor Zhao Zhen?" The name surprised Lin Tao and the three of them. For them, this name represented not just a person, but a mountain that straddled them. The three of them looked out of the city along Wang Kang’s fingers in disbelief. They saw that in the center of the army formation outside the city, a warrior wearing a golden armor and holding a black steel gun sat down. A pure black high war horse, surrounded by a group of warriors, looked proudly into the distance. Although they couldn't see the look of the warlord because of the distance, looking from a distance, the momentum displayed by the warlord could feel that it was extraordinary. Xia Shanyue also widened his eyes and exclaimed, "That person is Emperor Song Zhao Zhen? He has become the emperor, is he still in armor?"
"That's right." Wang Kang still gritted his teeth, wishing to jump directly from the top of the city and fight with the other party. He slammed the female wall in front of him and smashed several bricks into pieces. Wang Kang shouted resentfully: "This person can't be wrong with Song Emperor Zhao Zhen. Back then, as the representative of my father, I went to Jiangling to meet Song Emperor Zhao Zhen. I will never forget the appearance of this person in my life. He is Emperor Song Zhao Zhen!"
Wang Kang was so sure that Lin Tao and others had to believe that the lord of the Song Army, Emperor Song Emperor Zhao Zhen, their greatest enemy of the Xia Army, was now in front of them. For a while, everyone didn't know what to say, obviously unable to digest the news. After a while, Wang Kang hammered the female wall again and finally broke the wall of the female wall. Then, Wang Kang shouted angrily: "Take my gun."
When Wang Kang shouted so, Lin Tao and all three were shocked. Wang Kuang quickly grabbed Wang Kang's arm and exclaimed: "General! Brother! What do you want to do? Don't be crazy." Generally in the army. In front of the middle soldier, he called Wang Kang the general, but now he called his eldest brother directly, showing how anxious he was.
"What are you doing?" Wang Kang sneered, turned his head to look at Wang Kuang, and shouted: "Brother Wang Kuang. Have you forgotten the blood and blood of our Wang family? Now the enemy is in front of us, how can I shrink my head? Tortoise? If you are still a man of the royal family, follow me out of the city right now. Join me to kill the Emperor Zhao Zhen of the Song Dynasty to commemorate the heroic soul of the Wang family.” As he said, the soldier who had been following was already Wang Kang’s Weapon Jiaolong gave the golden gun, and Wang Kang stretched out his hand and grabbed the big gun in his hand. With one hand, he walked down the city with one hand behind his back.
"Ah! General." Wang Kuang didn't want to take revenge, but the question is whether the current situation is suitable for revenge, but it is a two-pointer. Wang Kuang wanted to persuade Wang Kang, but he didn't expect that Wang Kang would just run straight away, chasing after him. Not on. At this time, a hand suddenly rested on Wang Kuang's shoulder. Wang Kuang looked back, but it was Lin Tao. Then Wang Kuang said to Lin Tao: "General Lin Tao! Quickly let people stop my eldest brother."
"No." Lin Tao vetoed Wang Kuang's request in a deep voice, and said: "This time may be an opportunity. I'm sure Song Emperor Zhao Zhen definitely didn't know in advance that we occupied Chengxiang, Meizhou. Otherwise, I will definitely not only bring such a small number of soldiers and horses! Finally Song Emperor Zhao Zhen only has these people around, if we can seize this opportunity, Song Emperor Zhao Zhen will be captured. Perhaps, for us Xia Jiajun, for adults , It may be great news!" As he said, Lin Tao's eyes began to shine, and he couldn't help getting excited, who had always been calm.
It's no wonder that Lin Tao was so gaffe. Song Jun developed to this point, and the trend of dominating the world can be said to be unstoppable. To put it harshly, Xia Cheng and Gao An are just lingering. If nothing else happens, the Song Army will definitely go south and annex Xia Cheng and Gao An in the future. This attack on Liu Tong is actually just a preview. Lin Tao was deeply blessed by Xia Cheng's knowledge and encounters. Although he knew that Xia Cheng's future was gloomy, he couldn't just give up like that. He could only do his best to win Xia Cheng's life.
Right now, Lin Tao has been struggling for a glimmer of life. The Song Army was able to grow out of nothing. In just a few years, it was able to fight against the Jin and destroy the Qi, subvert the Zhao Gou regime and unify most of the south. It has grown to such a strong point now. It is because of Song Emperor Zhao Zhen, the lord of the Song Army. .
If you can kill Song Emperor Zhao Zhen here, or even capture him alive, the situation between Song Jun and Xia Jiajun will be reversed immediately in the future. And now what Lin Tao has to do is to gamble once.
Hearing Lin Tao's words, Xia Shanyue who was on the side was also against Wang Kang's impulse. Now his eyes light up and he nodded hurriedly and said: "Yes! If you can catch Emperor Song Zhao Zhen, then adults can also capture Emperor Song Zhao. All of Zhen's forces. Who else can beat an adult that day? Quick! Let's follow along. Maybe the Emperor of Song Zhao Zhen saw us occupy Chengxiang in Meizhou and was scared away." He said, Xia Shanyue also turned his head and ran down the city.
When Xia Shanyue said this, Lin Tao and Wang Kuang both laughed helplessly. Will Song Emperor Zhao Zhen be scared away? Since the beginning of the Wumashan Uprising, Emperor Zhao Zhen of Song Dynasty has experienced countless fierce battles and never flinched. When did he hear that Emperor Zhao Zhen of Song Dynasty would retreat without a fight
This time the number of Song Jun and Xia Jun is almost the same. It is difficult to predict who will win or lose. It can be said that Lin Tao is just a gamble on luck, maybe he can defeat Song Jun and capture Song Emperor Zhao Zhen, but Lin Tao definitely does not I dare to say that I will be able to defeat Emperor Song Zhao Zhen, not only Lin Tao, I believe that no one in the world dare to praise such Haikou.
However, although Xia Shanyue was a bit exaggerated, Lin Tao and Wang Kuang had no intention to correct them. At the moment, both of them were full of minds about what would happen to Song Emperor Zhao Zhen. It is impossible to catch it just by defending the city. Song Emperor Zhao Zhen had to go out of the city to fight. Both of them nodded immediately, commanding the soldiers and horses at the head of the city, and began to gather at the city gate, preparing to go out of the city to meet Emperor Zhao Zhen of Song Dynasty.
Outside the city, Song Emperor Zhao Zhen in a military uniform looked at the black Xia Family Army flag that was erected at the head of the city, and his heart was also very complicated. Just as Lin Tao guessed, Emperor Song Zhao Zhen really didn't know that Chengxiang in Meizhou had been occupied by Xia Jun.
In the previous battle in the Nan'an Military City, although Hu Tianqing succeeded in beheading Liu Tong, he himself was seriously injured by Liu Tong's dying counterattack, and he has now been sent back to Jiangling for treatment. And Liu Jiajun’s incomprehension also made Song Emperor Zhao Zhen, Fu Xuan and others unable to guess their heads, and couldn't figure out where the Liu Jiajun had gone.
After discussing for a long time in the Nan'an Military City, in the end, I could only come up with a method that was not a solution, so that the generals led a team of soldiers and horses to various places to search for news about Liu Jiajun.
After sending Lin Yuhu and other generals out, Song Emperor Zhao Zhen suddenly had a whim, and he hadn't really been on the battlefield for a long time. Song Emperor Zhao Zhen, who is 22 years old, is still very young after all. Even if he adds up his previous life and the time in this life, he is now no more than 35 years old. Therefore, the restless man decided to lead an army himself this time, and chose one of the most important targets for a long-distance raid, so he just came here.
In order to avoid trouble, Song Emperor Zhao Zhen refused to bring too many soldiers and horses this time, and only brought Shan Shanyue and Hua Zhonglong with him. However, Song Emperor Zhao Zhen never expected that when he arrived outside Chengxiang City, Meizhou, his target, he did not meet Liu Jiajun, but saw the Xia Jiajun army.
