An island in the sea.

The morning sun shines on the sea, and white waves connect the sky and the earth, rolling in and rolling up.

Looking from a distance, the seawater and the sky seem to merge into one, seamlessly connected in the distance. The seawater in the distance, illuminated by the beautiful sunlight, looks like fish scales spread on the water.

This small island was named Xia Ke Island by Su Chen, and the name came from Xia Ke Xing.

The name of the island is just a pronoun for ease of communication.

Nowadays, ships that come and go and dock at Xiake Island appear from time to time. In addition to bringing some resources, they also keep sending intelligence. Although Su Chen does not go out or leave the island, he has a lot of knowledge about the Southern Tang and Northern Song Dynasties.

The situation of the war is well understood.

He had already heard the news that the Caishiji camp had been breached, and concluded that the Southern Tang Dynasty was unable to recover and that the country would be subjugated in just a few months.

However, he did cherish Lin Renzhao's talent, so he began to formulate a rescue plan.

But this rescue plan cannot be launched in his name, otherwise his identity will be exposed to the public. Therefore, he plans to use the name of Yang Wu's Restoration Army to rescue Lin Renzhao, and then find a way to send someone to contact Lu Jiang and Lu Jiang in Runzhou City.

Ma Chengcheng, Ma Chengli and others allowed these people to break out at critical moments instead of fighting to the end and annihilating the entire army.

Therefore, Su Chen began to formulate rescue plans for some ministers and generals.

At this time, Bai Susu, Peng Jingjing, and Liu Monong walked into his temporary study together.

Some of them had account books in their hands, some had lists, and some had a pot of tea in their hands. The three women made an appointment to enter his study, chatted with their husband, and talked about some recent developments on the island. He was the one who made the decision.

After the exchange, Su Chen told the three women about his rescue plan.

Peng Jingjing was the first to express her position: "Okay, this can save many loyal people in our Tang Dynasty, especially General Lin Renzhao. We have always respected him. General Lin is in our Tang Dynasty, whether he is a green man or a military man.

He has a high prestige, so it is unjust to be sent to prison like this, and to be questioned at any time. Once the Song army breaks the city, they may have to chop off his head. If we rescue him in advance, it will be a kind of protection."

Su Chen nodded and said, "Yes, this man leads troops to fight and has certain military capabilities. After we rescued him in the name of the Restoration Army, we will place him in the Restoration Army in the future, and there will also be some of our own people."

After Peng Jingjing heard this, she said: "Let me arrange the manpower to do it. I happened to have trained a group of warriors who can do this."

Su Chen nodded and left it to Peng Jingjing to arrange the rescue mission.

"In addition, Runzhou City has been stormed by the Wu Yue Army and is about to be defeated. Let some of our spies pay close attention to the situation in the city. If there is an opportunity, we can rescue some generals in times of crisis or notify them to break out, such as Ma Chengcheng and Mon Yan.

Wait for the general. There are also some families with whom we have good relations, let them find a way to hide them. If the bandit army enters the city, there will definitely be a bloodbath."

Bai Susu nodded and said: "I understand. Fortunately, I sent the news to the Bai family in advance, so that during the peace negotiation period of the Tang and Song Dynasties, my family left Runzhou in advance and went south to Hongzhou to take refuge. If the city of Runzhou is destroyed, my family will not suffer.

.But some relatives and friends were not notified too much. I hope they are all safe."

Su Chen nodded slightly. He had no choice but to tell everyone that Runzhou would be destroyed and everyone would run for their lives. Many people would not believe it. Even if they believed it, they would not abandon their family property and leave.

Su Chen sighed: "The reason why the soldiers on the front line worked so hard is because before every expedition, whether it was the Song Dynasty or the Wu Yue court, they promised the front line soldiers that once the city was breached, they would let the soldiers take whatever they wanted for three days.

The unlucky ones are the wealthy households, high-ranking officials and aristocrats in the city, who can be seen plundering money and killing people everywhere. Daughters of some nobles and ladies may also be ruined. Therefore, it is extremely dangerous to stay in a dangerous city. As the saying goes, a gentleman does not stand in danger.

Under the wall, get out as soon as possible, at least your personal safety can be guaranteed. Put the property that cannot be taken away there, and go back when the situation calms down, so that you can leave a green mountain without worrying about having no firewood."

Bai Susu said: "What my husband said is that as long as the person is here and some assets can be taken care of again when he goes back, if the person is gone, everything will be gone and it will be all in vain."

Peng Jingjing interjected and asked: "Ms. sir, when will we go to Zhangquan to meet Ling'er?"

Su Chen hesitated for a moment and said, "When the cities of Runzhou and Jinling are destroyed, let's go to Zhangquan. In this way, we will neither participate in nor witness the battle between the Tang and Song Dynasties. If we are so invisible, our hearts will be clean!"

The three girls nodded, understanding what Su Chen was thinking. They did not want to go to the territory of the Tang Kingdom and witness Li Tang's demise without being able to see it, so that they could feel at ease.

The three women all understand this and are not in a hurry to go to Zhangzhou and Quanzhou.

A few people live on the island, enjoying rare tranquility, peace, and aloofness from the world. This quiet life is joyful and harmonious. Maybe they can't find this kind of ordinary life when they return to land and compete for hegemony.

After all, if you go to Zhangquan, you will be full of intrigues, wars and disputes.

………

Outside the city of Zhengzhou, the Wu and Yue soldiers stepped up their attack, with fifty or sixty thousand troops, plus some strong men recruited from the local area to carry supplies and repair siege weapons for them, leaving Runzhou City in danger.

On the top of the city, Deng Wang Li Congyi's face was full of sorrow, and his face turned pale with fear. He had grown up in the palace since he was a child, and he had never seen such blood and purgatory.

It was too cruel, and it was really difficult for a pampered prince of his age to adapt.

At this time, he couldn't help but admire Su Chen. He was almost the same age, but Su Chen was able to hold on here, preventing Wu Yue's army from breaking through Runzhou City at all. It was so powerful, it was completely different from the previous level.

However, now that Su Chen is gone, he is left to command the officers and soldiers defending the city. There are only 20,000 to 30,000 people, and there is not much fighting spirit. There is also a shortage of food, grass, soldiers and armor, and the morale of the army is weakened.

At this moment, he has realized that Runzhou City will not be able to defend at any time. If he does not break out, he will probably become a prisoner or even die in Runzhou City. This is definitely not what he wants.

So in the past few days, King Deng began to implore the veteran general Lu Jiang to come out of the palace to help direct the overall situation. In times of crisis, such an old general was still reliable. Li Congyi felt that he was no longer capable of commanding the Runzhou garrison to hold on to the city.

However, although Lu Jiang's body can move freely for the time being and has recovered a little, she cannot ride a horse and hold a sword to fight. She still needs at least half a year of rest. She can only help King Deng make suggestions and pay attention to some defensive points.

That's all, it's hard to save this decline.

Two days later, Deng Wang Li Congyi felt that he could not hold on and was about to fall at any time, so that night, he led 3,000 elites and hundreds of guards to break out at night, abandoned the city, and completely handed over command to Lu Jiang, the governor of the city.

Beyond the.

He fled and prepared to return to Jinling City. If other coaches had done this, they would inevitably be punished after returning to Beijing.

But after all, Li Congyi was the emperor's younger brother. He was originally ordered to come in the face of danger. He was not a general and did not understand the art of war, so it was natural that he could not defend the city.

He felt that his brother Li Yu would not hold him accountable, so it was more important to save his life.

This Runzhou City was no longer something he could control, so the Thirty-six Strategies were the best strategy and he gave up on Runzhou City.

The news that King Deng had abandoned the city and fled spread throughout the city, causing turmoil in the morale of the army. Lu Jiang was also powerless and unable to turn things around.

In this way, Runzhou City was finally defeated. The Wu Yue soldiers rushed into the city with red faces and left the fierce street fighting with the Tang army. As long as the resistance of the Tang army was defeated, it was time for them to plunder property. All the Wu Yue soldiers felt excited.
