A little steady mind Zhao Gou hurriedly asked.
"How did that happen? Did General Liu Lao lose the battle? He’s still sick, isn’t it because his illness has affected the war? The 40,000 troops of Zhenjiang Prefecture and the imperial court sent 20,000 imperial troops to support a total of 60,000 troops. How can it be defeated after only ten days? "
Ye Yiwen, the new Tang dynasty, was quite surprised by this. He did not expect that Liu Yong was defeated in Huainan less than 20 days after the war, and even the Yangtze River defense line was broken.
Liu Kun is known as a famous soldier in the army. It seems that Liu Kun can persist for a long time.
As a result, it was defeated so quickly and lost the whole Zhenjiang Dutong Company.
What’s going on here?
Zhao Shen was not prepared for Liu Yong’s defeat and the fall of the defensive works.
He was not so worried that the former navy threatened Lin ‘an City, because he believed that the navy could not come up with more troops to threaten Lin ‘an City on land.
But the army is different. The army really has the possibility of threatening Lin ‘an City!
And it seems to him that the total force of the army is only tens of thousands of people. How can Liu Kun command sixty thousand Song Jun and lose the Yangtze River defense line so quickly?
Is the army too good at fighting or is Song Jun too useless?
Zhao Shen quickly called the Zaifu team and the main generals of the imperial army to hold a meeting.
The result of the meeting was to immediately send Sanya Imperial Army to defend Huzhou town in the north to ensure that even in the worst case, the army could not be threatened by Huzhou.
If the army threatens Huzhou, it can directly threaten Lin’ an through Huzhou. By then, Lin’ an can be defended downstream, and Lin’ an is the real danger. What happened before is the real threat.
Zhao Shen deeply felt the threat, so he immediately ordered Zhao Mi, the commander-in-chief of the front office of the temple, and the commander-in-chief of Huzhou, to lead the three official imperial army of 30 thousand people to stick to Huzhou in North Huzhou.
Sixty-one-year-old Zhao Mi was reluctant but did not dare to disobey orders. She accepted this request and bravely led the 30,000 imperial guards to defend in North Huzhou.
Zhao Mi was an official. At the last moment, he had a first soldier addiction and cooperated with the civil servants to get rid of Yang Zhongke. But this happened before the first soldier position became hot.
He has no confidence in whether he can hold on to Huzhou.
Zhao Mi left Zhao Shen before he realized that he was too optimistic about the war situation. The army’s combat effectiveness far exceeded his imagination. Liu Yong, a meritorious veteran, was defeated.
Now that the army has successfully crossed the river, it will definitely threaten Jiangnan, which has not experienced war for a long time. Can Jiangnan really bear this huge risk?
Is Zhao Shen at all sure?
So he found Shi Hao and told Shi Hao about his doubts.
Shi Hao appeased him.
"Although the situation is in crisis, there may not be no chance to reverse the situation. It is inevitable that it will be difficult for the army to explore the logistics. It is enough for ideal city to be held by our army to get the military logistics into trouble. At that time, it will be the opportunity of Dasong."
Zhao Shen looked at Shi Hao.
"Teacher, you said that the defeat of Dasong in this war might be great. Do you think so now?"
Shi Hao was silent for a while before slowly opening his mouth.
"Being on the throne for only a few days does not change the situation of poverty and weakness in the Song Dynasty. When needed, the Song Dynasty also needs time."
Shi Hao’s words are euphemistic. Although euphemistic, Zhao Shen can understand the meaning of this sentence.
Shi Hao denied that the Southern Song Dynasty could still turn defeat into victory by this time, even though they had just changed the emperor.
Perhaps it is precisely because the emperor has just changed, and there is a super unfavorable factor in changing coaches.
However, Zhao Shen does not see it this way.
"Teacher, I don’t believe that Dasong will be defeated and China will be defeated. In the past, I was powerless. I couldn’t do anything, but now it’s different. I am powerful. I can do what I want. Teacher, I hate failure."
Shi Hao looked at Zhao Shen and slowly shook his head.
"What you lack is not courage, but when the old minister wants to say in his heart, it is really enough to make peace with the country and accept their request to stop this meaningless war, so that something can be saved."
Zhao Shen stared at Shi Hao for a long time.
"Teacher, do you want me to be a surrender emperor just after I ascended the throne?"
"I don’t want it, but the emperor’s hasty abdication surprised the old minister. I didn’t expect the emperor to …"
"When my father is old, there are always some things that need to be younger for me to bear!"
Zhao Shen beat the console table and his face was full of anger. "Some people are afraid of the country, but I’m not afraid. Some people think that Dasong will be defeated. I don’t think so! I still have soldiers, I still have food, I still have money to fight, and I have everything. Why can’t I win? Don’t you just want to be a surrender? "
Shi Hao listened to Zhao Shen and bowed his head and sighed.
"I have made up my mind, and I have something to say."
"Teacher, I don’t mean anything against you. I don’t want to surrender and suffer humiliation."
Seeing that Shi Hao didn’t seem too happy, Zhao Shen walked up the steps and went to Shi Hao to comfort him. "The teacher is an important national official, and I can’t give the teacher too high status, but in my heart, the teacher is the real candidate for the prime minister."
Shi Hao didn’t show much excitement about Zhao Shen’s painting of pie in the New Year.
Of course, he likes power and high position, so that he can do more things to realize his ideal.
But Shi Hao has vaguely seen the future of Zhao Shen.
It shouldn’t be like this. The future should be even brighter. An amateur emperor with no political burden has too much plasticity and too much future.
But he never imagined that Zhao Gou didn’t take it to this point, and Zhao Gou was so timid.
You surrender and then abdicate!
You’d better abdicate behind the pot!
You left your innocence to Zhao Shen and then went to your Shuri!
What are you going for?
What are you afraid of? ! !
At that time, Shi Hao was almost hysterical when he learned that Zhao Gou had quickly abdicated and handed over the throne to Zhao Shen. At that time, his family roared and slammed the table and smashed the bench for decades. At that time, his self-cultivation kung fu was broken in a big mess and frightened his family.
Zhao Gou didn’t want to until the last moment. Think more about it. He will break his word and get fat until the last moment. The so-called Ann is so timid that he will run away without landing in the army. He can’t wait for a moment.
What!
What, you’re so timid!
Your trip to Zhao Shen’s political resume will start from a very disgraceful moment, which will leave a heavy shadow on his future ruling career!
What an emperor! What an emperor! Dasong is suffering from you! ! !
Shi Hao cried bitterly for a long time, even after learning that Zhao Shen had pulled him out of politics, he didn’t stop crying.
It was a long time before Shi Hao stopped crying and finally realized the reality.
Many previous plans may be wasted. He must explore a new reform road before Zhao Shen’s defeat and surrender to change the current poverty-stricken and weak state of Dasong.
And watch Zhao Shen Shi Hao, who is bent on his own way and doesn’t want to take the blame, the sense of foreboding is getting stronger and stronger.
