Father, I really don’t want to be the emperor

Song Chengzhou's unexpected speech shocked Ning Fan. You should know that there was a narrow escape from death, but Song Chengzhou was willing to take the risk. This was indeed something Ning Fan did not expect.

"Master Song, it is extremely dangerous to go here. Have you really thought about it?"

Ning Fan stood up and looked a little excited.

With Song Chengzhou's prestige among the government and the public, it is really possible to solve the crisis by rushing to the northwest this time. It would not be possible for anyone else to go.

But what Ning Fan is most worried about is Song Chengzhou's life safety. After all, Song Chengzhou is already old. Rushing all the way to the northwest is a huge challenge in itself. In addition, going to the northwest army is extremely dangerous.

"I have already lived to this age, and my life and death have long been ignored. It would be my honor to be able to exert some residual enthusiasm for the court, even if I die in the northwest."

Song Chengzhou seemed to have thought the matter through and didn't take it to heart at all. He seemed to have decided to commit suicide.

But Ning Fan was a little hesitant. After all, Song Chengzhou had indeed put in a lot of effort for Dakang. If this veteran minister was put in danger like this, Ning Fan would feel bad psychologically.

"Your Majesty, please stop hesitating. This is what I should do, and I did it voluntarily. Your Majesty, don't worry, I am still confident."

Song Chengzhou said firmly towards Ning Fan.

"Well, I'll trouble the old general. This time the old general goes to the northwest, I will also rush to the location of Huang Chao's army immediately."

"It is not easy for Dakang to be in the current situation. I will definitely not let Dakang fall into war and disputes again. This rebellion must be avoided."

Ning Fan frowned and finally made up his mind. No matter how great the danger or difficulty this time was, it must be overcome.

After Song Chengzhou left, he quickly started organizing people to rush to the northwest non-stop, and Ning Fan didn't have time to take a breath. It had only been a few hours since he got the news.

"Qin Ying, after I leave, I will leave everything to you. Remember to protect the shipyard, set up the shipyard within half a month, and build the first ship."

Ning Fan explained some things to Qin Ying and hurried north with 20,000 dragon scale troops.

Time waits for no one, Ning Fan must rush to the northwest first.

But on the other side, the veteran Song Chengzhou hurriedly led his men and horses to the northwest. They slept and ate in the open air without stopping, covering more than half of the distance in just three days.

"My lord, I'm afraid it will be a disaster to rush to the northwest army this time. Just in case of unexpected events, don't you want to leave a few words?"

The confidants around him were very worried about Song Chengzhou. After all, this veteran was upright and strong-willed, but his trip to the northwest was indeed very unlucky.

"There is nothing to save. You also know the situation in my family. Even if something unexpected happens to me suddenly, the family will not change much. And I actually still believe in His Majesty."

Song Chengzhou looked indifferent, as if he had really taken life and death lightly.

He has been thinking about rushing to the Northwest Army these days. How should he deal with this matter?

"General Chen Yuanqing doesn't know where he has arrived. General Chen is scheduled to arrive in the northwest in one month. He has never traveled as fast as we have."

The subordinates said with some worry, if Chen Yuanqing was allowed to arrive in the northwest first, then the situation would be different. After all, Chen Yuanqing is stupid and crude, and is far less bold, careful, courageous and strategic than Song Chengzhou. If Chen Yuanqing is allowed to arrive first, After arriving in the northwest, we still don’t know what the situation will be like.

"His Majesty has already sent people to chase General Chen Yuanqing. Of course, we cannot let him reach the northwest first. We will have a lot of freedom here. No matter whether Chen Qiao arrives in the Northwest Army first or arrives later, we will all There is no need to worry, because what we have to do is not to confront him head-on, but to use gentle means."

Song Chengzhou seemed to have already made a plan. He was confident about this matter and didn't seem worried at all.

The Northwest Army has a total of 300,000 troops. These troops are all tempered by the bloody war, and they are absolutely loyal to Chen Qiao. At this time, Song Chengzhou had to rush to the northwest army and take the general's head among the rebellious army. This was simply difficult to achieve.

In the eyes of a group of close men, Song Chengzhou's joining the Northwest Army was no less than sacrificing his life for righteousness. However, Song Chengzhou was not so pessimistic. On the contrary, he was very optimistic. Although the journey was tiring along the way, Song Chengzhou's mood was always optimistic.

The weather in the northwest is not as mild as that in the south of the Yangtze River. Although spring is already in March in the south of the Yangtze River and the heat is rising, the northwest is cold and windy. You need to wear cotton robes when you come to the northwest.

"Master Song, look quickly, is that the Northwest Army camp over there?"

It has been three days since the water route was changed to the land route, and it has been nine days since Songchengzhong set off from Jiangnan. These nine days have been almost non-stop.

After hearing the report from his subordinates, Song Chengzhou lifted the curtain of the car, stretched out his head and looked into the distance. When he saw the mountains of tents in the distance, he immediately knew that he had finally arrived in the northwest.

There were about a hundred people accompanying him. These people were all Song Chengzhou's confidants, and they were all powerful and unyielding generals and guards.

These people were specially selected by Song Chengzhou, and they were all smart and capable. But at this time, seeing the mountains of military camps, these people couldn't help but change their colors slightly, feeling timid. Only Song Chengzhou was sitting in the carriage with an expression on his face. Always calm.

"There is no need to panic, everyone is destined to die. It is difficult to escape this fate if you die early or later. We are loyal to the country this time. If we die, we will sacrifice our lives for the country. If we are lucky enough to survive, we will naturally make a decision. A huge contribution."

"So no matter what the outcome is, you are destined to get a good outcome in this life, so what is there to worry about?"

Song Chengzhou was worried that the timidity of his men would affect his judgment, so he said this to all his men at this time.

Sure enough, these words boosted the morale, and the expressions of these elite confidants suddenly calmed down.

In fact, if you prepare for the worst, people will not be afraid. This is a very simple truth. Song Chengzhou has told these people the worst outcome, so these people have actually accepted the risk psychologically.

A distant group of people came to Song Chengdu's carriage like a gust of wind. This was a group of cavalry. There were about a hundred people. The general at the head looked extremely fierce, holding a long knife in his hand, and his eyes were like a soaring in the sky. eagle.
