Chapter 721
Miaocheng suddenly fell, and Lu Zheng's soldiers were like falling from the sky, and he forced Lengzi to give another loud slap in the face of the Northwest Army. This time, the entire northern region was in chaos.
You should know that the battle between Lu Zheng and Song Naifeng is unknown, and there are countless eyes in the world watching! Originally, everyone thought it was a battle without any suspense. However, Lu Zheng first defeated Song Naifeng in Qishan, and Song Naifeng's troops were said to have been wiped out.
Then Lu Zheng defeated Song Naifeng's vanguard general Chuan Shanyue in Miaocheng and took down Miaocheng. This shocked the whole country. The ancient news transmission was very backward, so Lu Zheng happened to use this to promote it. Originally, the battle between him and Chuan Shanyue was impossible, but Lu Zheng used the Miaocheng to write to the court and the wind around him. He defeated Chuan Shanyue, the vanguard of the Northwest Army.
When people heard this, they were all shocked, especially Cao Weiming, who was closest to him. He had recently received a handwritten letter from Song Naifeng, asking him to go to the palace to divide the capital together with Song Naifeng!
Cao Weiming admired Song Naifeng very much and almost obeyed his will. However, the news that Miaocheng was broken by Lu Zheng reached Bianzhou. Cao Weiming did not dare to move at all, and his staff also wrote letters to him, asking him to see the situation and not act recklessly:
"Prince, Lu Zheng is better than Zhuge. His scheming and scheming are well-known to everyone in the world. Moreover, when he was using troops in the northwest, he had a very high reputation. Song Naifeng was indeed powerful, but this person is old, and the Yangtze River is pushing the front waves, and the front waves die on the beach!"
Cao Weiming felt annoyed and waved his hand and said, "I understand, wait and see, continue to wait and see. Don't act rashly now. Don't you know?"
Cao Weiming paused and said irritably: "The problem now is that the Northwest Army can tolerate me, can the imperial court still tolerate me? Can Lu Zheng tolerate me?"
"Prince, don't panic. Lu Zheng is Lu Zheng, and the court is the court. Lu Zheng is not a good-looking person. Although he is loyal on the surface, he must have been rebellious in his heart! Why don't you think he doesn't take action? That's because the time is not right. He jumped to the capital. As long as he can defend the capital and keep a way out for Dakang, he will definitely be able to establish his own huge power in the north!
At that time, it would be difficult for the Jiangnan court to mobilize Lu Zheng again. Lu Zheng and the Lu family in Jinling cooperated internally and externally. Is Dakang's country still the surname Long?
Lu Zheng has such ambitions. The prince and Lu Zheng had a good relationship before. At that time, they are afraid that Lu Zheng will not accept the prince?"
The adviser paused and continued, "Besides, if the prince was determined to join Song Naifeng, the Song family would just think that the prince was desperate! So, they were shouting at the prince, claiming to be the boss, and they would not take the prince seriously at all!
Now the prince simply keeps his troops and turns around. When Song Naifeng turns to ask the prince, he will be able to show off his identity. If the prince has the weight, is he afraid that the two rivers will not be controlled by the prince?"
When Cao Weiming heard these words, he felt that it made sense. He immediately untied his heart and decided to hold his troops temporarily and watch the tiger fight in the mountains.
At this time, the two sides fighting, Chuanshanyue people were on the border between the two rivers. When they heard the news of the fall of Miaocheng, they knew that they had been fooled. Lu Zheng was very cunning and used a team of people to disrupt his sight, making him feel that this team of people was the main force!
Lu Zheng's real power was hidden near Miaocheng. After Chuanshanyue sent troops to pursue him, Lu Zheng quickly attacked and captured Miaocheng in one fell swoop, swallowing up the five thousand troops from Chuanshanyue in one bite, and also robbed the food and grass that Chuanshanyue had stationed in Miaocheng. Sichuanshanyue had tens of thousands of troops cut off the food route. It was really deadly!
Chuan Shanyue was unsure of how powerful Lu Zheng was, so he didn't dare to rescue him at all. Instead, he immediately walked north and met with Song Naifeng directly.
Song Naifeng was conducting a net-style search for Lu Zheng's traces in the north. Miaocheng suddenly disappeared. The rope he used to tie his pockets was loose. How could he catch a turtle in the jar? After hearing the news, Song Naifeng was so angry that he threw away all the porcelain he had treasured in one breath, which scared the many generals under his hands all looked like earth and did not dare to meet him at all!
When Chuan Shanyue arrived, Song Naifeng gave him three mouths and shouted in front of the entire army: "Are you a pig? It's so easy to get fooled by the Lu family? Our 100,000 people are counting on you to defend Miaocheng, what about you? Miaocheng was actually stolen by your opponent. You, you really lost the face of my Northwest Army!"
Chuan Shanyue was burly and big, and knelt on the ground and cried, saying, "Your Majesty, it's all the fault of the last general! Lu Zheng is very cunning, and his Nanfu Army is really not weak. The cavalry he used as a suspect soldier and defeated me two thousand cavalry. That's how I was fooled!"
Chuan Shanyue paused and said, "Your Majesty, have you noticed that since we took Bingzhou, we were like deaf and blind all the way south. Our scouts could not find any news at all. The one named Lu seemed to have disappeared out of thin air!
Prince, if we continue to fight like this, how can we fight with the Lu? I guess our people were defeated by them before we even arrived in the capital!"
Song Naifeng had a blue face, snorted coldly, and said, "If the Lu army is so brave, they dare not fight us head-on, which shows that their strength is far from enough. Okay, I will focus on the capital now. Our 100,000 army is divided into three armies in front, middle and back, and we will advance within three armies. Sichuan and Shanyue. I will limit you to take down Miaocheng within three days. After capturing Miaocheng, our 100,000 army will advance together, embrace each other in groups and march forward. Hehe, I want to see how the Lu army still uses it?"
Song Naifeng was ruthless and decided to arrange a hundred thousand troops into three armies in front, middle and back. The three armies were connected from beginning to end, and each army advanced in unison, keeping a distance of one hundred miles from each other. He rolled all the way to the capital in the north, without being disturbed by other things along the way, and marched quickly, leaving Lu Zheng with no opportunity to take advantage of it.
Lu Zheng used the strategies of both battles to send troops quickly, using Song Naifeng's own weaknesses, or creating the weaknesses of the Northwest Army, and then attacked quickly, making the Southern Prefecture Army several times the Northwest Army in local area, thereby crushing the opponent with absolute advantage. Song Naifeng suffered losses one after another, and now he finally came back to his senses and immediately found a countermeasure!
The people were beaten and the fire broke out. Song Naifeng began to reflect on his own problems. He punched the table hard and said, "The price is too heavy! More than 10,000 people will die without a place of burial. We don't even have a single hair of Lu Zheng. Hehe, this kind of opponent cannot be underestimated and should not be underestimated!"
Song Naifeng looked around and said, "Tell me the order and quickly follow Sichuan Mountain and mountain to target Miaocheng! Lu Zheng is good at defending the city, so we force him to fight in Miaocheng!"
Miaocheng, Lu Zheng finally convinced Liu Song to give up his plan to defend the city. Lu Zheng knew very well that it was impossible for him to defend the city in the face of Song Naifeng's army.
The strength of the two sides is too disparate, and Miaocheng is not a big city. Song Naifeng surrounded Lu Zheng to death! How could Lu Zheng fall into that desperate and passive situation? Therefore, Lu Zheng's strategy is to annihilate the opponent in the movement, so Lu Zheng needs to choose a new goal.
Liu Song said: "Now Song Naifeng has understood his weaknesses. The so-called "no matter is three, what should we do in the next battle?"
Lu Zheng shook his head gently and said, "Song Naifeng's idea is still too outdated. He will definitely think that we have to rely on Miaocheng. The thinking of ordinary people is indeed the case. Didn't you, Liu Song, also think about this? We have to fight the battle of Miaocheng, but we only have to defend two to three days. Remember, we must defend the fierce attack of Sichuan Mountain. If Sichuan Mountain cannot take Miaocheng, Song Naifeng will inevitably rush to Miaocheng. By that time, our fighter jets will inevitably appear!"
Liu Song was stunned for a moment, and suddenly his eyes lit up and said, "General, you mean..."
Lu Zheng pointed to the map on the wall, looked around, and said to all the participating generals around him, "Did you see that, Song Naifeng has put in a lot of effort to clear us! They had already come from Bingzhou, but now they have walked back for a while!
Let's focus on Qi Biao. His 15,000 people are still wandering around Qishan! Okay, this time we attacked again, hiking in the daytime and walking at night, all the cavalry raided Qishan and destroyed Qi Biao in Qishan. In this battle, we will once again hit Song Naifeng's arrogance!"
Lu Zheng waved his hand and said his decision in a severe blow. He just won a great victory and the morale in the army was very strong. Kuangzi made great contributions and just received the reward. He was particularly strong in fighting spirit:
"Master General, please give the order and we will follow you! Hehe, in fact, our Nanfu Army is no longer weaker than the Northwest Army. Even if we face each other head-on, it is not weaker than them. What's more, with the general's magical plan, we are not afraid of them!"
"Coax!" Everyone laughed in unison, and Xiao Ran said, "We are afraid that the war will not last long, because we can't go long, what should we do if we can't go long? Miaocheng is so good. We are so tired of eating mutton alone. If this continues, we will all be fat and we will be so fat!"
The morale was high and the morale was available. Lu Zheng made a quick decision and immediately left Miaocheng with the five camps, including Kuang Zi and Xiao Ran, and hid in the morning and walked directly north and headed straight for Qishan.
Miaocheng was Liu Song defending the city. He led 30,000 infantrymen to defend the city, which was also a risky move. If Lu Zheng could create a Mingtang in Qishan, Miaoshan could be relieved. Tens of thousands of people in Sichuan Mountain were panicked and did not dare to fight against Liu Song for the desperate attempt, so that Liu Song's infantry could escape.
However, if Lu Zheng's war was not strong, Liu Song would be in great danger, because he was full of infantry and had no chance to escape, so he could only let Chuan Shanyue eat all of it in one go!
