Tang Dynasty Mingyue Song Dynasty Pass

Chapter 683
Sixty miles southeast of Wuhu City, there is a stone pavilion at the junction of Xuanzhou, surrounded by continuous mountains, green mountains and empty valleys, lush and green.

Outside the stone pavilion, a carriage stopped, and a burly man wearing a bamboo hat got out of the carriage. Around a dozen people were dressed as merchants, but they were actually secret spies sent by Su Chen to rescue Lin Renzhao.

After the strong man got off the car, a spy leader came over to communicate with the strong man.

The strong man in the bamboo hat cupped his fists and said in a loud voice: "Thank you all, I will be rescued from the prison. Next, Mr. Lin, I don't want to bother you to follow and protect me. I can go and stay alone."

The spy leader Chen Xi replied: "General Lin, you don't have to be polite. We are also entrusted with the mission. Now you are a wanted criminal in the Tang Dynasty, and Song Jun is also chasing you. Next, no matter where you go in the Tang Dynasty, You will face the danger of being exposed, so why not go to Zhangquan with us, we are members of the Yangwu Fuguo Army, and we have established Fuguo in Zhangquan, which used to be Fujian, and it is also your homeland. I hope you can join us Let's go together, our Highness has always admired General Lin for a long time, and told us to take you to Zhangquan."

This burly man was none other than Lin Renzhao, the great general of the Southern Tang Dynasty.

He had already been imprisoned in Wuhu City and was imprisoned. If he hadn't been trapped in the city by the Song army, he would have been taken back to the capital at any time to investigate the matter of "collaborating with the enemy". He was detained in a cell in the military barracks in Wuhu City.

Before the Song army city was broken, the secret agents sent by Su Chen used a series of methods to rescue Lin Renzhao.

Therefore, Lin Renzhao was grateful for his escape, but he couldn't let go of the situation in Tang State and wanted to stay.

At present, the two cities of Wuhu and Dangtu have been destroyed, and the Song army went to encircle Jinling City. As a general of the Tang Dynasty, he wanted to contribute again.

Chen Xi, the secret spy leader in charge of the rescue, said: "General Lin, Tang's vitality is exhausted, and the country's subjugation cannot be changed. General Lin, why are you persistent? Even if you go to Jinling City to plead guilty now, or go to Hongzhou and Jianzhou Not only will they not listen to your suggestion, they will recruit troops to buy horses and go north, and they will even detain you as a reward when you surrender to the Song army in the future. A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, since there is no way to gain a foothold here , why don't you trust us once and go to Zhangzhou to meet my master!"

After Lin Renzhao heard it, he was a little moved. After all, what the other party said was the truth. Even if he stayed and wanted to contribute to the country, he would not have that chance. After all, he is now a criminal, and the emperor of the Southern Tang Dynasty personally issued an order to punish him. , was imprisoned in the big prison, and the charges have not been cleared. No matter where I go, my name is not right, and my words are not right.

However, when the Song army entered Wuhu City, they did not catch Lin Renzhao. After learning that he had been rescued, they also offered a reward for arrest. Therefore, it was indeed dangerous to stay in the territory of Tang State.

Since the other party rescued him with good intentions, it was tantamount to saving his life. He insisted on going to Zhangzhou with them to meet the leader of the National Recovery Organization. And it should be.

Therefore, Lin Renzhao nodded and said, "Okay, that's the end of the conversation, Mr. Lin will go to Zhangzhou to meet your leader, and thank you for saving your life in person, and I will trouble you to lead the way along the way."

"You're welcome, you should! Then let's continue on our way."

The team continued on their way, taking advantage of the fact that the Song Army was still going to Jinling City, and did not go south for the time being, at least in many places in the southern part of the Tang Kingdom, the Song Army had not traveled yet.

Such as Hongzhou, Fuzhou, Yunzhou, Yuanzhou, Jizhou, Qianzhou, etc., are much safer.

On the way to the south, we could also see some fleeing common people, who fled south one after another to avoid the chaos of war, making their caravan inconspicuous.

Outside Jinling City.

The Song army had already encircled the city on all sides, launched a siege, and the sound of killing was loud.

The fierce confrontation here is full of soldiers who are charging and fighting to the sky, and there are dead bodies lying in pools of blood everywhere and never getting up again.

The bravery of the Song army was fully displayed at this moment, and they crazily stormed the city of Jinling. All kinds of crossbows, bows and arrows, trebuchets, kerosene bombs, etc., shot and smashed at the top of the city wall of Jinling.

As for the soldiers of the Southern Tang Dynasty, looking down from the top of the city, there are patches of red tassels on top of their caps flying like flames in the sun, forming a sea of ​​flames, which is frightening.

It was the shape of the elite soldiers and horses of the Song Dynasty, wearing battle armor and a fan yang cap on their heads. They were well-trained and murderous, and they were constantly attacking the city.

In the big camp outside Jinling City, many generals of the Song Dynasty gathered here.

Cao Bin, Pan Mei, Li Jixun, Shi Shouxin, Wang Shenqi and others gathered together like a cloud of fierce generals, and they finally converged. Each general's face was full of hope and longing.

All the generals of the Song army felt that the end of the Tang Dynasty was just around the corner, because Jinling City was like a turtle in a urn, waiting for them to break through, and the next step was the art of war. The hope of the court.

Cao Bin looked around and said: "Although there were some ups and downs in this expedition against Tang, and the battle ceased after a few twists and turns, overall it went smoothly. We only took four months to wipe out the main force of the Tang army. Now it is besieging Jinling, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, and all the royal family and ministers are in the city. As long as the city is conquered and Li Yu and the ministers of civil and military affairs are captured, the Southern Tang Dynasty will perish. As for the twenty states in the south, they can be taken gradually."

"It makes sense. Li Yu was short-sighted and didn't move the capital in time. If we go deep into the hinterland of the Tang Dynasty, find a state with dangerous terrain, mobilize people from twenty states in the south, and form an army of 30, we will not easily grasp such an initiative. They are all compressed in the city, and they are bound to win."

"That's right, the current Tang State is in a desperate situation, and even a trapped city can trap them to death!"

Pan Mei, Wang Shenqi and other generals talked a lot, dismissing the Tang court and Li Yu.

Cao Bin smiled and said: "Nowadays, the Tang State is short of food and grass, and morale is low. Speaking of it, I have to thank Su Chen. If it weren't for Li Yu's short-sightedness, lack of fighting spirit, and the influence of the court's infighting, sending Su Chen out would be tantamount to self-destructing the Great Wall. The morale of the army and the unity within the imperial court were disintegrated, and this attack clearly felt the weakness of the Tang army, without fighting spirit and vigor, it was so easy to be defeated!"

"Yes!"

"It's true that the Li and Tang courts have set themselves in a cocoon, abolished their martial arts, and even fell into our scheme of alienation. If people like Su Chen and Lin Renzhao are removed, the Tang Dynasty will be over."

"It's just a pity, Jiangzuo Sulang, it just became the past, short-lived."

"A genius who can't grow up is nothing after all!"

The generals of the Song Dynasty were all sneering and sarcastic, and they dismissed the Southern Tang Dynasty, and mostly ridiculed what happened to Su Caizi.

They didn't know that Su Chen, whom they thought was eliminated, was playing a bigger game of chess behind the scenes, and it wouldn't be long before he would make a comeback and shake the world!
