The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 1982 The Heart of Retirement

At this time, half a month had passed since Zhao Dongting issued the order for all the troops to retreat one after another, and more and more troops were withdrawing from the front.

Those Yuan troops who surrendered were all sent home, even those generals.

Wen Tianxiang, who was in charge of the frontier at this time, was not worried about what troubles these generals would cause after they returned.

The news of Emperor Yuan's surrender had already spread, and they lost their morale.Furthermore, they should also know the gap between them and the Great Song Imperial Army.

In this battle, the armies of the four vassal kingdoms played no role.The defeat of the Yuan army was not an accident.

This is not a crime of war, but a real gap in national strength between the two countries.

Ruyang, the main residence of Caizhou.

"Finally they're all withdrawn..."

Wen Tianxiang stood on the tower of the south city gate, looked at the army that was drifting away outside the city gate, and sighed softly.

This army is the Tiangang Army of the Jiankang Security Office, led by Wen Qi, and is at the rear.After them, only the remaining armies of the various armies have not withdrawn.

"yes……"

Beside Wen Tianxiang, Chen Wenlong stroked his beard and said with a smile.

Ever since Zhao Dongting met him in Biyang, Tangzhou, he hastily rushed to Ruyang City by order.As long as there is news from the Yuan Dynasty, they plan to go to Beijing with Wen Tianxiang.

At this time, there is still one and a half months before the end of the New Year (the previous article was wrong, a month was omitted, and it has been changed), they and the soldiers who stayed in Caizhou must not be able to rush home to celebrate the New Year.But for those brothers who have already set off, those who belong to the Jiankang and Xianglong Security Offices, and even some soldiers from the Shuzhong Security Office and Xingguo Security Office, it is not impossible to rush home to celebrate the New Year.

This may not seem like a big deal, but it's actually a big deal!Because it can give the families of those soldiers a peace of mind and live this year in peace.

"Yuanhuang, oh, no, the real gold should be coming to Zhongdu soon, right?"

Wen Tianxiang said again suddenly.

Chen Wenlong nodded beside him, "According to the time, it should be almost there. As long as there is no intentional delay, we should be able to arrive within two days at most."

"Hey!"

Wen Tianxiang laughed lightly, and said: "At that time, we will lead the [-] troops to the north, accept their surrender, and then recruit and take down all the guards and defenders of the Yuan Dynasty along the way. It has initially fallen into the hands of our Great Song Dynasty. Dude, we have been officials in the same dynasty for... more than [-] years, right? To be honest, have you ever thought that our Great Song Dynasty can return to its most prosperous age now? "

"It's been 23 years..."

Chen Wenlong said with some emotion: "Brother Yu, I was the number one scholar in the four years of Xianchun, and I became an official. Since then, you and I have been ministers of the same dynasty. To put it bluntly, you and I are both in danger. It was only when the Song Dynasty was on the verge of collapse that it was hard to find room to display your talents. Brother Yu is a great talent, brother Yu is far behind, but let me say, with your strength and Brother Lu and others fighting against the Yuan Dynasty with all our strength, in the end I'm afraid... For the current grand occasion, I really dare not even dream about it. Don't say that now, even if it is Dingleizhou and Fulin'an, it was something I didn't even dare to think about when I was overseas ah……"

When he said this, there was a hint of admiration in his eyes.

Beside him and Wen Tianxiang, there were civil and military generals, and no one interrupted.At this moment, there are different expressions in his eyes.

Some worshiped like Chen Wenlong, while others were extremely complicated.

Among them, the elements are mixed.Some have been with the court, while others have been promoted halfway.Also, it was the Yuan Dynasty who surrendered.

They listened to Chen Wenlong's words, of course they had different feelings in their hearts.

Everyone could tell that Chen Wenlong highly respected Zhao Dongting.Not only does he feel that he is not as good as he is, but even Wen Tianxiang, Lu Xiufu and others are all added, he is far behind.

"yes……"

Wen Tianxiang said: "Back then you were on Naozhou Island, and I was in Jiangxi. Although I was leading the crowd to fight against the Yuan Dynasty, I didn't really have much hope in my heart. Until Naozhou saw the emperor, he saw that the emperor was completely different from before. , and the Thunderbolt developed by him, I know that there is hope for our Song Dynasty. Now, we just need to accept the surrender of the Yuan Dynasty, and we people can finally feel completely at ease."

He didn't know what he meant when he said this, and looked up at the sky.

Chen Wenlong's complexion changed slightly, and he dragged Wen Tianxiang to the side, "My dear brother, what did you mean by that just now? Could it be you..."

He and Wen Tianxiang have been ministers in the same dynasty for decades, and they are not political enemies.This name is more intimate.At this moment, Chen Wenlong's face was also full of nervousness.

Those civil servants and generals did not dare to follow.

Wen Tianxiang chuckled, "Don't be nervous, brother, Wen doesn't have any illness."

He knew that Chen Wenlong would misunderstand, so he quickly reassured Chen Wenlong.Then he said: "Just to say, those of us can rest assured to hand over power..."

The voice that said this was very low.

Chen Wenlong's expression relaxed just now, and he changed slightly after hearing these words, "Brother Yu will be sixty next year, so he should hand over the power. But you, brother...why do you have such an idea?"

As the deputy state minister of the dynasty, he inevitably had to think of many things.At this moment, all kinds of thoughts are in the head.

He also thought that Zhao Dongting had asked him to be the chief envoy for the trip, not Wen Tianxiang, whose status and prestige were higher than his.

Could it be that the emperor already had suspicions about Wen Tianxiang?
This is just crossing the river, and the bridge is about to be demolished?Da Song is going to stage the death of the cunning rabbit and the cooking of the lackeys, which have been taught countless painful lessons before?
Fortunately, what Wen Tianxiang said next made Chen Wenlong feel relieved.

Wen Tianxiang said: "To tell you the truth, although Wen has not been seriously ill these years, he has also suffered from many hidden diseases. Before, he was always worried about the prosperity of the Song Dynasty, so he didn't feel tired, but now the general situation is about to be determined. When I suddenly relaxed, I felt that my energy was not as good as before. Although you are old, you are really exhausted. Instead of continuing to hold the position of this military order, it is better to let their energetic young people come up to sit on this Location. The emperor told me to move the capital to the central capital. In my opinion, the emperor has even greater ambitions. But every time the emperor does this, it must be based on the New Deal. I feel that I can’t keep up with the emperor’s thinking. It’s earlier It’s good to go home to take care of the elderly. At most, it’s best to take a position in the military cabinet and advise the emperor, so that’s the best.”

"Aren't you afraid that the master will be overwhelmed by your achievements?"

After Chen Wenlong nodded slightly, he still couldn't help asking.

Wen Tianxiang smiled lightly: "In the Great Song Dynasty, there have been many Chinese and military officials in the dynasties, and there are countless meritorious ones, but who dares to say the words "superior meritorious service?"

Chen Wenlong was stunned for a moment, then nodded and smiled: "It's true, without the emperor, we are just a mob."

Immediately afterwards, the smile became a little teasing, "Brother, you suddenly mentioned this to Brother Yu today, it is..."
