Chapter 745 Zhao Wen Arrives in the Capital
"My lord, in my opinion, those people outside the city are probably waiting for Zhao Wen.

If they hadn't waited for Zhao Wen, they wouldn't have been able to wait until now.You must know that the weapons in their hands are so powerful that we cannot resist them at all. Even the city walls of the capital cannot stop their footsteps!
There's no reason for them to keep procrastinating. "Cao Huachun said solemnly.

Chongzhen's face was extremely gloomy, "Looking at it this way, Bandit Zhao wants to take down the capital himself!"

"My lord, it's very possible!" Cao Huachun said.

"Damn Zhao thief, really damn Zhao thief!" Hearing this, Chongzhen yelled and cursed loudly.

For Chongzhen, if Zhao Wen personally led soldiers and horses to attack the capital, it would be equivalent to rubbing Chongzhen's face under his feet.

"Okay, you go down first, and take charge of the city defense. I will leave the city defense to you!" Chongzhen gasped, and kept calming down. When he was almost calm, Chongzhen turned to Cao Huachun. Said.

Cao Huachun saluted Chongzhen and retreated.

Seeing the back of Cao Huachun leaving, Chongzhen felt very uncomfortable.

In today's huge capital, there is only one Cao Huachun who can be trusted, which is really unacceptable to Chongzhen.

"Ugh!"

Chongzhen watched the back of Cao Huachun leaving, and kept sighing.

Chongzhen knew that Cao Huachun couldn't hold the capital at all, but this was Chongzhen's last hope, even though this hope was very slim!
After Cao Huachun left the palace, he went directly to the city wall of the capital.

Cao Huachun stood on the city wall of the capital, looking outside the capital.

I saw a large number of camps stationed less than five miles away from the capital.

These tents were exactly where Song Hu was stationed.

Because the cannons above the capital are some old red cannons and Franc cannons, Song Hu dared to station the camp so close to the capital.

Cao Huachun looked at the camp outside the city, sighed continuously, his face was full of ashes.

Stationing the camp so close to the capital is a naked humiliation of the capital.

But even so, Cao Huachun had no choice but to let Song Hu pitch the camp so close.

Outside the city wall to the south of the capital, Song Hu stood at the forefront of the camp, holding a telescope in his hand and quietly looking at the capital in front of him.

Although there are soldiers stationed on the city walls of the capital, the number of soldiers is not many, and the sparseness does not seem to have any deterrent effect.

"It seems that the current number of defenders in the capital is not enough, otherwise, the number of soldiers on the top of the city cannot be so small!" Song Hu murmured.

A counselor stood behind Song Hu, and he also held up a binoculars, "General, this is a very normal thing. Most of the people in the capital have gone to Xuan Town, and now there are only some unwilling people in the capital." Those who left the capital, as well as some officials and nobles.

The number of people in the capital is small, which means that the number of soldiers that the capital can recruit is not enough.Moreover, in the past, the soldiers of the Beijing camp in the capital were beaten by us, and there was nothing left for those nobles in the capital to go up the city wall, so it is inevitable that there are not many defenders in the capital! "

"You're right. In fact, regardless of the number of soldiers in the capital, they are not our opponents. It's just a matter of a few more shells!" Song Huyun said calmly.

Song Hu has fought for such a long time, and he knows the weapons in his hands very well.With a powerful weapon in hand, Song Hu has not paid attention to the capital in front of him.

"Now we have to wait for His Majesty. As long as His Majesty arrives, we can launch an attack. When the capital is taken down, the world will be pacified, and I can rest well!" Song Hu let out a long breath, revealing relaxed expression.

"Yeah, we only have the capital and Beizhili left now. To be honest, the capital and Beizhili are nothing to us. With our current strength, it can be said that the victory of the capital and Beizhili is a certainty." Things!" The counselor also said with a relaxed face.

Song Hu nodded, and then looked at the messenger standing behind him, "Send my order, let everyone cheer up, His Majesty is coming soon, and he will launch an attack on the capital soon after he arrives. !"

The messenger took Song Hu's order and headed for the distance.

Zhao Wen's convoy has entered the range of the capital, and it will not be long before the capital.

Because of the heavy snow, the speed of the firewood car was much slower.

Originally, it could reach the capital in one day, but it took Zhao Wen's convoy two days to reach the capital.

Zhao Wen sat in the wood-burning car, looking at the snow-covered road with a relaxed expression on his face.

"Your Majesty, we have entered the boundary of the capital. In less than an hour, we will reach the capital!" The driver looked at Zhao Wen and said.

Zhao Wen nodded, "Then let's rest when we get there!"

The wheels of the car rolled on the snow, making a crunching sound.

There were only ruts left on the official road. No one had passed the official road from Xuanzhen to the capital for a long time. Except for Zhao Wen's car pair, almost no ordinary people had walked this official road.

Not long after, Zhao Wen's convoy arrived outside the capital.

Ten miles to the west of the capital, Song Hu led the generals in the army and stood quietly on both sides of the road, waiting for Zhao Wen's arrival.

As the time approached, the engine sound of a firewood car appeared in Song Hu's ears.

Song Hu's expression was lifted up and he cheered up.

"Brothers, Your Majesty is here, get ready!" Song Hu turned around and shouted at the officer behind him.

The officers behind Song Hu also began to arrange their appearance, waiting for Zhao Wen.

The sound of the engine became louder and Zhao Wen's motorcade appeared in Song Hu's field of vision.

Song Hu looked at the convoy that appeared in his field of vision, and hurriedly led the officers behind him to greet Zhao Wen's convoy.

Zhao Wen's convoy also started to slow down, heading towards Song Hu slowly.

The convoy stopped in front of Song Hu, and Song Hu came to the side of Zhao Wen's firewood car.

"Your Majesty!" Song Hu looked at Zhao Wen who was sitting in the firewood car, and saluted respectfully.

The military officers following Song Hu also hastily saluted Zhao Wen respectfully!
Zhao Wen opened the car door and walked out.

"Excuse me!" Zhao Wen waved at Song Hu and the officers behind Song Hu.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The men stood up.

Zhao Wen walked out of the carriage and walked forward accompanied by Song Hu.

"How is the situation now? Has there been any change in the situation in the capital?" Zhao Wen asked Song Hu while walking.

Song Hu said: "Your Majesty, the situation in the capital has not changed much from before. The defenders in the capital have all gone up to the city wall, but the number of soldiers defending the city is not many, and there are not many sparse ones."

"The soldiers in the capital were almost wiped out by us before. It's not surprising that there are not many soldiers in the capital!" Zhao Wen said.

Surrounded by Song Hu and others, Zhao Wen came to the Chinese army tent not long after.

Zhao Wen sat on the main seat of the Chinese army's large tent, and the officers stood on both sides of Zhao Wen in order according to their official positions.

"Everyone, we have surrounded the capital now. The current capital is the same for us. As long as we want, we can take the capital down at any time!" Zhao Wen cleared his throat and looked at the big tent. These officers said.

The soldiers in the big tent looked at Zhao Wen quietly, their faces full of seriousness.

"Now that the world has calmed down hastily, it is time to take down the capital and Beizhili. Now I have ordered that all soldiers stand ready to attack the city tomorrow morning. Within two hours, the capital must be captured!" Zhao Wen said loudly. Said.

"As ordered!"

The officers in the big tent stood up and replied loudly to Zhao Wen.

After the meeting, the officers returned to their respective camps.

Accompanied by Song Hu and his personal guards, Zhao Wen came to the front of the camp.

Holding a telescope in his hand, Zhao Wen looked at the city wall of the capital.

Because the capital is far away from Song Hu's camp, the soldiers on the city wall couldn't see Zhao Wen.But because of the telescope, Zhao Wen could see the city wall of the capital.

After Zhao Wen's order spread throughout the entire barracks, the entire barracks moved instantly, and a large number of soldiers came in and out of the camp, making final preparations for tomorrow's siege.

The movement of these soldiers caught the attention of the soldiers in the capital city. Because the distance was relatively far, the soldiers in the capital city could only see the commotion in the camp, and did not know what the soldiers in the camp were busy with.

Because of the overwhelming superiority of weapons and equipment, Zhao Wen did not send soldiers to the capital city to harass the soldiers on the city wall.

Cao Huachun was wearing an iron armor, standing on the wall of the capital, looking at the noisy camp outside the city, his face was full of dignity.

"The bandit camp suddenly became noisy, a large number of soldiers came in and out, but I didn't see these soldiers coming to the capital, which is not normal.

These bandit soldiers seldom moved after arriving outside the capital city, and spent most of their time squatting motionless in the camp. How could they be so active today?Could it be that thief Zhao is here? "Cao Huachun looked serious.

Cao Huachun's brain was running fast, thinking about this question non-stop.

"It should be that the thief Zhao is here, otherwise it would be impossible for this to happen. If the thief Zhao is here, it means that the thief soldiers may attack the city at any time.

Looking at the movements of the bandit soldiers outside the city, the bandit soldiers are likely to attack the city tomorrow! "Cao Huachun murmured.

After thinking about all this clearly, Cao Huachun took a few personal guards down the city wall and headed towards the palace.

Cao Huachun wanted to tell Chongzhen the news as soon as possible.

Not long after, Cao Huachun came to the palace.

At this time, Chongzhen was sitting in the warm pavilion, reading a newspaper that had been passed down from Xuanzhen a month ago.

Chongzhen looks very calm, but all this is just a superficial phenomenon.

Chongzhen's hand holding the newspaper trembled tremblingly.

Now that there are a large number of soldiers and horses hoarded outside the city, and there are not enough troops in the capital, how could Chongzhen calm down.

"My lord, my lord!"

Cao Huachun ran into the warm pavilion.

Chongzhen hurriedly stood up from his chair, looked at Cao Huachun, "What happened? The bandits outside the city attacked the city?"

Cao Huachun came in front of Chongzhen and shook his head. "Your Majesty, the bandits outside the city haven't attacked the city yet, but Bandit Zhao seems to have come just now!"

As soon as Cao Huachun's words came out, Chongzhen was startled.

When Zhao Wen came, he thought that the time to attack the city would not be too far away. Even if he didn't attack the city now, he would definitely attack the city within a day or two.

Cold sweat dripped from Chongzhen's forehead, and Chongzhen's face was full of panic.

"Zhao thief is here, Zhao thief is here!" Chongzhen's eyes were dull.

"My lord, I will do my best to defend the capital. If Zhao thief wants to enter the city, he must step on me!" Cao Huachun shouted at Chongzhen vowedly.

Chongzhen did not respond to Cao Huachun's voice.

Chongzhen's heart was already in a mess, he sat slumped on the chair, his body trembling non-stop, like sifting chaff.

"What can I do? What can I do?" Chongzhen kept muttering, with a look of panic on his face.

No one can be calm when he is about to die, not even Chongzhen.Ants are still alive, let alone Chongzhen?
Seeing Chongzhen like this, Cao Huachun knew that Chongzhen's heart was in a mess.

Cao Huachun pulled Wang Chengen, who served Chongzhen, aside.

"Remember, you must take good care of the emperor. Once the situation changes, immediately protect the emperor to leave the city. Remember, you must be smart when you leave the city. Don't leave the city immediately after the city is broken. Wait for a while. I am outside the palace. There are 2000 people left for you. If the capital is captured by Zhao, you will take these people to protect the emperor and leave here.

The emperor is arrogant and has a strong temper, so he might not run away.If the emperor is unwilling to escape, you will take tough measures.Remember, no matter what method you use, you must take the emperor away! "Cao Huachun looked at Wang Chengen and said anxiously.

Wang Chengen nodded heavily, "Godfather, don't worry. I will definitely take good care of the emperor and prevent him from any harm!"

"Remember what you said, I'll go first!" Cao Huachun said and walked out of the palace.

At this time, almost no one came out of the capital, and most of the people in the capital escaped from the capital. The number of people in the capital is pitifully small now, and the whole capital is desolate.

Cao Huachun walked out of the palace, stepped on his horse, and headed towards the capital with a few personal guards.

Cao Huachun brought 2000 troops when he came, and now these troops are left outside the palace by Cao Huachun.

Not long after, Cao Huachun arrived at the city wall.

He stood on the city wall and looked out of the city.

The heavy snow in the sky began to fall again, and the heavy snow like goose feathers kept falling to the ground, covering Cao Huachun's vision quite a bit.
