Lu Zheng wanted to fight the Liaodong Army west of Yuzhou, but he had to say that this decision was incredible from any perspective, because Lu Zheng fought with the Liaodong Army, and the Northwest Army was behind the Liaodong Army.

Can Lu Zheng's southern army resist the front and back attacks of the Liaodong Army and the Northwest Army with these few troops? Obviously, such a decisive battle is of little chance and seems very unwise.

But why did he choose to take action at this time? And he pressed all the trump cards of the Nanfu Army? The boy couldn't understand it, so he firmly opposed it.

Lu Zheng took a deep breath and said, "Boy, I know what you mean, but now look at the current situation. Although we have won in Tanzhou, Song Naifeng is not a good person! We won three battles and three victories, but he is becoming more and more brave. His military strategy is full of power. He is said to be a good fighter and is not in chaos. This person is really hard to deal with!"

Lu Zheng paused and continued: "Our previous two battles did not achieve the expected goals. Song Naifeng was very smart. He brought the Liaodong Army and promised that as long as he took down the capital, he would give all the places in the capital to Long Lingxiu and Tan Lei. I have to say that this person really saw through our intentions!

In this case, we lost the capital. Even if we occupied Yuzhou and Bianzhou, we could still contact the Liaodong Army to advance step by step, and then slowly erode, making our living space narrower and narrower, so we had to give up on the north and roll back to the south of the Yangtze River in shame. In that case, we would completely fail!

So I made up my mind to fight the Liaodong Army here and it was a last resort. If we didn’t fight, the result would be that the Liaodong Army and the Northwest Army would boil the frogs in warm water, and the fate would be very miserable!"

The boy nodded and said, "But no matter what, at this moment, the decisive battle is suddenly, no matter whether it is the right time, place, people and others, the key is that we are too weak in absolute strength and have no chance of winning at all?"

Lu Zheng shook his head and said, "Who said there is no chance of winning at all? If I were just to die, I would never be so hasty. Don't forget that the other party is the Northwest Army and the Liaodong Army, and we are also the South Mansion Army and the Northwest Army. Song Wensong may not be easier than me in the capital at this moment. In this battle, the plan depends on people and things are in heaven. Since I have made this plan here, whether it is successful or not, I can decide and keep it!

But one thing I can be sure of is that you reassure the soldiers. In a short period of time, Song Naifeng's Northwest Army cannot capture my retreat. We have time to fight the Liaodong Army. In this situation, we will have a battle!"

Lu Zheng decisively infected the boy and the soldiers of the Nanfu Army. They and Lu Zheng had long been convinced of Lu Zheng's ability. In this battle, everyone was worried that the Northwest Army would suddenly arrive, which would put the Nanfu Army in a dilemma that could not be cared about from beginning to end.

Now Lu Zheng admitted that the Northwest Army would not come. If this is the case, wouldn’t it be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?

Although everyone expressed deep doubts about Lu Zheng's words, Lu Zheng had never let everyone lose, and everyone also had a lot of trust in Lu Zheng's statement.

"I understand. It turns out that the General Manager has already had a clever plan to deal with the Northwest Army. Now we are facing only tens of thousands of Liaodong Army! Hehe, the Liaodong Army used to be the first iron army of Dakang, but now it seems that this is the case. There is nothing extraordinary! We will fight to the death in this battle and defeat the Liaodong Army!" A general stood up and shouted loudly.

When he shouted, the morale of the generals was shocked. For a moment, everyone in the Southern Palace screamed, and tens of thousands of infantry actually had the momentum of cavalry. Now Lu Zheng's situation is that he personally led the infantry, and Liu Song led the cavalry on the other side. The cavalry and infantry of the Southern Palace fought together, and the target was the arrogant Liaodong Iron Cavalry!

...

If Lu Zheng's strategy is carefully analyzed, it is not difficult to understand. He regards Song Wensong as an important reinforcement. Is Song Wensong that important? In fact, this is a very subtle question.

If you want to say how caring Song Wensong is to Lu Zheng or how loyal he is to the court, I am afraid no one believes that Song Wensong is not a good-looking person. He is Song Naifeng's third son and the son who is most like Song Naifeng.

He was born a hero and followed the principle of not punishing others for himself. If Lu Zheng was in trouble, he would certainly not save him easily.

However, the matter is subtle here. Song Wensong is really hard to decide in the capital now. Should he leave or stay?

He had no choice before this problem, or he had already chosen to defend the capital city and rely on the city walls of the capital to fight to the death with his father at all costs! But the problem lies with Lu Zheng's side. It would be fine if he kept defending it, but Yue Feng suddenly came out and gave the Liaodong Army a fierce attack, breaking the tacit understanding between the Liaodong Army and the Northwest Army.

Even the Liaodong Army and the Northwest Army abandoned the capital and went to deal with Lu Zheng. I have to say that this was an unexpected thing. The capital was originally in danger and even robbed, but now it suddenly reappears... Song Wensong had to hesitate!

"Three Generals, don't hesitate at this moment. If you don't leave at this time, it will be too late! Being firmly at the capital will definitely be over. What's the benefit of losing tens of thousands of us in the capital? Let's leave the green mountains without worrying about burning firewood, the third general!" The generals below knelt down and asked Song Wensong to retreat.

Song Wensong paced back and forth, his face gloomy. At this moment, he was also extremely entangled in his heart. He didn't know what to do!

The capital seemed very good, but he was convicted of the crime of losing the capital. To be honest, he was too unwilling to accept it! He could have let Lu Zheng take this charge. After Lu Zheng received this charge, the Lu family in Jiangnan would be affected. Looking back, Song Wensong could make more efforts in Jiangnan, so that he would have the chance to compete with the Lu family.

But... if the capital is held in a very high risk, because the Northwest Army is too strong, and Song Naifeng is too strong! Song Wensong had just been struggling for three days, and he lived a life like a purgatory, and that was simply a nightmare!

"Mr. Qi, now that things have come to this point, I really have no idea. At this moment, I still hope that Mr. can help me and make a decision for me!" Song Wensong looked at Qi Yuanzhi with his eyes wide open.

Qi Yuanzhi frowned slightly, sighed, shook his head, and said, "General, I am a strategist. If you have something to do, I can plan for you, but I can't do anything to make decisions! Today's decision, the future is confused, and Yuanzhi can't do anything. Everything depends on your own wishes, the third general!"

After Qi Yuanzhi said this, Song Wensong was speechless. At this time, the counselors including Wu Liewen and Xing Zheng immediately knelt down again and joined the team to withdraw. Seeing that everyone around him had no intention of fighting again, Song Wensong sighed in his heart and raised his hand and said:

"Okay, I have already decided that the capital cannot be defended. It's not that we don't do our best, but that our opponents are too strong and our strength is almost exhausted. At this moment, we can only keep Qingshan!"

Song Wen paused, his tone suddenly rose, and said, "Let me listen to it, and I will pass the order of generals. We will immediately thoroughly complete the capital, leave the city from the Meridian Gate, head straight to the canal, and withdraw troops from the canal waterway!"

Song Wensong gave the order and the entire army retreated. Qi Yuanzhi hid in the crowd and saw this scene. His face turned pale in an instant, saying: "You must die if you retreat, and you must die if you defend. This cannot be reversed by human power, and I, Qi Yuanzhi, can do nothing!"

After Qi Yuanzhi finished speaking, he turned around and left without looking back. At this time, the people in the capital were already panicked. Qi Yuanzhi simply changed into a short dress and integrated into the fleeing people, and quickly disappeared without a trace.

Song Wensong made a quick decision to leave the city. The army had just left the city for a few miles, and suddenly came to report in front of him that the cavalry of the Northwest Army came from three sides.

Song Wensong's face changed drastically, he looked around and said, "What's going on? Why did they come so quickly?"

"There are spies in the army, so someone must have informed me. Otherwise, the Northwest Army would never have been like this..."

Song Wensong raised his hand and interrupted the man, saying, "No need to say more. At this moment, we must be out of reach for the canal transportation. The water route is controlled by someone, so we can only go by land. There is nothing to say. Go directly to the south. The cavalry followed me. We quickly broke through the siege and headed straight to the south of the Yangtze River!"

Song Wensong decisively decided to give up his strategy of walking on the water and go straight south, but he was destined to underestimate his opponent's determination and will. Song Naifeng's army had already arrived at the capital city, but abandoned the capital city and went straight south without any rest. He rushed Song Wensong to attack behind him.

Song Wensong ran all the way to defend against the enemy, and the northwest cavalry came and went on the plain like the wind. This time, in order to deal with Song Wensong, many generals were even more energetic. They surrounded and intercepted Song Wensong's way forward!

The general said that he would take down Song Wensong at all costs. No matter what difficulties or wherever he pursued, Song Wensong must chase him. The pursuit and fugitive battle between the Northwest Army and Song Wensong began, and on the other side was the fight between the Southern Prefecture Army and the Liaodong Army.

Song Wensong decided to leave. This was Lu Zheng's judgment on him. It was based on this judgment that he dared to fight the Liaodong Army to the death! Because he firmly believed that in Song Naifeng's eyes, his number one enemy was definitely not his never-to-faced self, but his biological third son Song Wensong.

Human nature is really too difficult to figure out. Lu Zheng is undoubtedly a master of thinking about human nature. Song Naifeng is a top famous general today, but as long as he is a human, he has weaknesses. Song Naifeng's weaknesses are undoubtedly Song Wensong.
