Bastard’s Resurgence

Chapter 679: The prince was defeated!

In the capital, Long Zhaohuan was discussing matters before the court, his confidant Sun Chengzhong, the prince Zhan Shi Zhan Han, and the left-behind prime minister Su Xinghai gathered together.

Long Zhaohuan said: "This time your decree is to let the Yuzhou governor go to the south of the Yangtze River to serve as the chief governor of the Nanfu Army. The Yuzhou Army has no leader. It just happens that the capital is empty and urgently needs to be deployed for defense. What do you think about the defense of the Yuzhou Army? "

Sun Chengzhong said: "His Royal Highness, there is no doubt about this matter. The Yuzhou Army must obey the orders of the Prince. Fortunately, Su Zhi, the governor of Yuzhou, is the nephew of Su Xiangguo. All he needs to do is to revise a letter from Xiangguo. This matter is sure to be safe!

The land of Dan Maru in Yuzhou, such a small place is too crowded to station 60,000 troops and horses. The gate of the capital is open to them, and the Yuzhou army can enter Beijing. What a great thing is this? "

Su Xinghai said with a smile: "Master Sun, if you said this two days earlier, it would be the most appropriate. Your majesty's will can't be delayed for a while! The military order is like a mountain. After receiving the imperial decree, Su Zhi is undressed. Immediately he hurried to the south of the Yangtze River, and when the Su family got the news, he was already halfway through!

At this moment, you asked me to contact Su Zhi and let the Yuzhou army enter Beijing. It was more than half a beat! "

Sun Chengzhong frowned, and Long Zhaohuan suddenly stood up and said: "Hey, come here, the whole army! This palace will personally inspect Yuzhou!"

Zhan Han said: "His Royal Highness, I have been prepared according to your instructions long ago! Ten thousand cavalry troops have arrived at Yuzhou. Your Highness, you personally lead, are you afraid that the Yuzhou Army will not open the door to welcome you outside the city of Yuzhou?"

Long Zhaohuan laughed loudly and said: "Okay, Su Xiang and Chengzhong are responsible for guarding the capital. You accompany me to Yuzhou. It should not be too late and we will send out troops immediately!"

Long Zhaohuan did not neglect, and quickly led 10,000 troops to Yuzhou. At this moment, Yuzhou’s 60,000 soldiers and horses are too important to him. If he can hold these tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in his hands, not only The capital can be held, and he can also take advantage of the situation to completely grasp Lianghe in his hands.

In this era, the strong is respected, and whoever has the strength is the king! Long Zhaohuan had no soldiers in his hands, so his influence could only be around Gyeonggi, outside the scope of the capital, and no locals would listen to his dispatch. There are very few taxes he can collect, so little that he has no way to expand his army, only enough to fill his stomach with the existing troops.

Therefore, whether or not he can win the Yuzhou Army is related to his life and death. If the Yuzhou Army can come together, he will annex the two rivers and the territory in his hands will be vast. With the territory and the army in his hand, Long Zhaohuan can attack Longyou to the west. The east can threaten Shandong, and the north can contact Liaodong. He monopolizes the strategic location of the capital, which can be said to have taken the initiative.

Long Zhaohuan sent troops, the counsellors and generals around him almost supported him one-sidedly, and he was also full of ambition. He firmly believed that the Yuzhou Army had no head coach, and he went to Yuzhou as the prince, and he would surely be able to win over other generals of the Yuzhou Army as long as they Back, Long Zhaohuan would not hesitate to give them a great reward.

The army departed from the capital and resisted the city of Yuzhou three days later. At the city of Yuzhou, Long Zhaohuan ordered Zhan Han to call the door. Zhan Han stood under the city and shouted:

"The prince also came to Yuzhou to inspect the disaster situation in the two rivers, and wait for the Yuzhou army to quickly greet the prince?"

The soldiers on the city looked dull, and one of the lieutenants replied: "I'm sorry, I will block the gate of Yuzhou in the name of the imperial envoy, and no one can enter. You want to rescue the disaster. The entire two rivers are starving. There are no victims in Yuzhou, so there is no need to wait for them!"

As soon as Zhan Han heard this, he immediately responded to Long Zhaohuan. Long Zhaohuan was furious and said: "This is really unreasonable. When will there be another imperial commission?"

Zhan Han said: "It must be Su Zhi who went to Jiangnan, and the court sent an imperial mission to Yuzhou to appease and direct the disaster relief. When we look back, we will ask again, and we will surely be able to ask what happened."

"The imperial court, where is the imperial court?" Long Zhaohuan furiously, he said: "This palace is the imperial court, and this palace guards the capital instead of the emperor's prison. The imperial palace is not sent. Where is the imperial servant? I think it is. Pseudo imperial commission!"

With Long Zhaohuan's scolding, his general Zuo Qianlong stepped forward and said loudly: "His Royal Highness, it seems that this imperial envoy is also a newcomer, and may not necessarily be in control of the situation. At this moment, we do not hesitate and should act decisively! "

"The last thing you will see is that Yuzhou’s city cannot be defended. If I wait for a sudden attack, I will definitely be able to open a hole. As long as we rush in, the Yuzhou army will inevitably be in chaos. At that time, we will arrest the imperial envoy again and let it win the hearts of the people. Yuzhou entered the hands of His Royal Highness." Zuo Qianlong said loudly.

Long Zhaohuan's expression changed, and Zhan Han said: "His Royal Highness, nothing is right at this time. Yuzhou has 60,000 horses and I have only 10,000 horses. This confrontation is not a level at all. If you miss it, you may be overwhelmed!"

Zuo Qianlong sneered: "Master Zhan, we were unexpected and intentional to unintentional. We were hit by a single blow, and the other party was caught off guard. In the projectile land of Yuzhou, 60,000 horses can't be used at all. I will wait for 10,000 elite soldiers to enter, Dangru A sword is as sharp, how can the enemy block it?"

Zuo Qianlong was impassioned. In the end, he straightened his chest and said: "His Royal Highness, the general is willing to lead three thousand troops to attack the east gate, if it fails, the general is willing to engage in military law!"

Zuo Qianlong paused, and then said: "His Royal Highness, in today's world, chaos has arisen. At this moment, it is a place for heroes to use their skills! If your Highness makes a decisive decision, I will attack immediately, and the victory will be determined by the two rivers! Waiting for the opportunity, how can you miss it?"

Long Zhaohuan was excited by Zuo Qianlong’s words, and immediately pulled out the saber around his waist, and said loudly: "Okay, since General Zuo is so confident, this palace will order you to be the vanguard and lead five thousand troops to attack the east gate. It’s getting late today, so we will send troops early tomorrow morning, and by surprise, we will take down the East Gate in an instant, and then we will work hard to take Yuzhou!"

Long Zhaohuan promptly prepared to send troops, and the surrounding counselors could not stop him. Zhan Han also tried hard to persuade him, but he just sighed on the side.

There was no word for a night. Early the next morning, Zuo Qianlong sent troops to attack the city without waiting for dawn. This time Zuo Qianlong came from the capital and had already made full preparations, including a siege vehicle, a ladder, a wood rolling stone, etc. Everything is ready.

He gave an order and five thousand people rushed out to directly attack the east gate of Yuzhou. Because the sky was still dark and the defenders on the gate had not recovered, the attacking soldiers boarded the gate. The East Gate was breached!

Zuo Qianlong was overjoyed when he saw that the East Gate was broken, and immediately sent a message to Long Zhaohuan.

Standing on the opposite side, Long Zhaohuan saw the fire on the wall. He was overjoyed and said loudly: "Broken, the city is broken!" Long Zhaohuan immediately drew out his sword and said angrily: "Listen to my general, the whole army will attack. Rush to Yuzhou, kill..."

Suddenly, the sound of killing shook the sky, and Long Zhaohuan led his army to the city. Suddenly heard the agitated horn behind him, he immediately turned his head and saw the sky behind him. , The sound of horseshoes bursts, and the dust is all over the sky.

Long Zhaohuan was shocked and knew it was not good. At this time, arrows were shot down like rain on the city wall. The capital army that had just attacked the city was counter-killed, and then the east gate opened wide. A puma came out from the city gate. The leader described it as stalwart and powerful. Who is this person, Cao Xuanhua, the left general of the Yuzhou Army?

Cao Xuanhua went into battle without saying a word. He brought the cavalry behind him and killed him directly. When Long Zhaohuan saw this scene, he was really heartbroken. Where else could he fight? Immediately screamed desperately, saying: "Retreat, retreat, retreat! Retreat quickly!"

After Long Zhaohuan finished pulling the horse, he left. As soon as the main general left, he was immediately defeated. Where can the remaining generals have the heart to fight again? At a time, the tens of thousands of horses in the capital were like ducks being stocked, everywhere, and the Yuzhou army came from behind and chased them for hundreds of miles.

Long Zhaohuan escaped hundreds of miles under the guards of the left and right guards before reluctantly daring to take the rein of the horse. At this time, he looked around again and found that there were only more than a hundred riders left on the left and right.

Seeing this situation, Long Zhaohuan was so angry that his eyes were black and he almost fell from the horse. He drew out his sword and was about to wipe his neck to commit suicide. He only heard Prince Zhan Shi Zhan Han loudly said: "Your Royal Highness, don’t think about it. Ah, the so-called staying in the green mountains without worrying about firewood, this wave is temporarily defeated, we first return to the capital and slowly, there will be a day when the mountains will make a comeback!"

Long Zhaohuan cried bitterly and said: "Ten thousand elite soldiers, this is almost the most elite army that the capital can call. These ten thousand people are buried in vain, how can the capital be defended? Is it true that the people should be on the top of the city? Go to defend the city?"

"Go and find out, who is the sacred envoy from Jiangnan? It is so insidious and cunning, and deliberately led into a trap, such imperial envoys are simply chaotic officials, chaotic officials!" Long Zhaohuan said loudly.

"His Royal Highness, I will discuss it later. For now, it is important for Your Highness to return to Beijing first! I stay here to gather the remnants. This situation should be able to gather a few percent, even if it is a big deal for my capital. Fortunately!" Zhan Han said.

Long Zhaohuan jumped off his horse, walked in front of Zhan Han, and grabbed his hand and said: "Long Zhaohuan is ashamed not to listen to the king's words. There is still this defeat. At this moment, I really regret it!"

Zhan Han said: "His Royal Highness, go quickly, I and Your Highness will be both prosperous and both prosperous, and we will lose everything when we lose. It is definitely not the time to be polite..."

Long Zhaohuan mounted his horse and ran back, and fled straight back to the capital. Zhan Han gathered the remnants behind, and eventually got more than two thousand remnants. Long Zhaohuan went out this time and lost eight thousand sharp pawns. It can be said that the loss was heavy and horrible!

After returning to the capital, Long Zhaohuan received the news. According to the news from Jiangnan, the Jiangnan court sent Cao Weihua to serve as the imperial envoy of Lianghe to patrol Lianghe in charge of disaster relief. After Cao Weihua arrived in Lianghe, the first thing he did was to gather the Yuzhou Army and grab the Yuzhou Army in his hands.

"His Royal Highness, these so-called imperial candidates are all tricks used by Lu Zheng! Lu Zheng deliberately did this to prevent the Yuzhou Army from falling into your hands. This trick is really unprecedented, Prince. Your Majesty, this scorpion should be punishable!!!"
