After my rebirth, I became the white moonlight in the Beijing circle
Chapter 227: Fighting Tigers
After Lu Linchu assembled his troops that night, he crossed the river overnight.
Although he had thought in his heart that the Crown Princess might encounter an assassination attempt on her way back, this was Jiangzuo after all, and these assassins would not be able to accomplish anything serious. He felt relieved that the Crown Princess would be escorted back by the guards of the Prefectural Mansion.
He now had to concentrate on getting rid of Song Weizhao, the biggest worry in his heart, to prevent this guy from finding another opportunity to have an affair with the Crown Princess.
In order to show his sincerity in the peace talks and to paralyze Song Weizhao, he directly set the location of the peace talks on the north bank of the Li River.
Although the location of the peace talks was far away from where the two armies were stationed, in Shucheng near Jincheng, Lu Yan and Lu Hui still felt that something was not right, but they did not dare to force their way, and they kept giving their advice in a tactful way along the way.
"Your Majesty is still in poor health, so it is not appropriate for the Crown Prince to travel far. It is better for you to retreat first. First, he can stay in Wengcheng for Your Majesty. Second, Song Weizhao has sent a letter to pledge his loyalty, so he should cross the river to show his sincerity."
"In this case, I'm afraid he won't fall into the trap."
Whenever Lu Linchu thought of Song Weizhao's shameless face as he was obsessed with the Crown Princess, he wished he could tear him into pieces right away.
"That guy must have no way out now, so he wants to negotiate peace. Many people around my father are on the side of the Crown Princess. What if the Crown Princess feels sympathy for him and secretly asks them to excuse Song Weizhao? If she really accepts Song Weizhao as her vassal, wouldn't that be a troublesome matter?"
Lu Linchu secretly clenched his fists and ordered in a deep voice: "When we reach Shucheng, Lu Hui will follow me to set up an ambush on the shore, and Lu Yan will lead the navy to stay on the water and closely monitor the movements of the Dayan army. Never let the Dayan navy go to rescue us."
They both responded yes.
Lu Linchu estimated the distance from the Great Yan Army to Shucheng. The two places were full of gullies and it was very difficult to travel. There were also rebel troops occupying important roads along the way. If he wanted to arrive safely, he would have to clear out those rebel troops first. To do this, he must arrive at least two or three days earlier than Song Weizhao, so he had plenty of time to set up an ambush.
After landing, he and Lu Hui led 30,000 of the Lu family army's most elite cavalry to Tulongba, 50 miles away from Shucheng, to begin preparations.
After arranging everything, he waited on the dam for two full days before he saw Song Weizhao arriving late with a group of exhausted soldiers under his command.
Song Weizhao's confidants had already discovered that Lu Linchu had hidden soldiers in various places on the dam, and there were also naval forces raiding the river. They were very dissatisfied and said, "I'm afraid that Prince Daning has no sincerity in the peace talks this time. It would be fine if he chose such a place, but he made things so tense."
Song Weizhao raised his hand in disdain: "Prince Lu, for the sake of Guiyun, I will not argue with you. If you are sincere in peace talks, I am willing to accompany you, but if you want to play any tricks, I am afraid that with these shrimp soldiers and crab generals in your hands, I am afraid that I can't stop you."
Lu Linchu was very angry when he heard this. Coincidentally, at this moment, the spy came back and whispered something in his ear. He also shook his head with disdain: "Song Weizhao, you are so arrogant, but you rely on a woman to rely on. I really thought you were a man of steel. It's really disappointing."
Song Weizhao glared at him angrily: "What do you mean?"
Lu Hui immediately sneered: "Your Majesty, Princess Nalan has led 100,000 cavalrymen into the border of Shucheng. Is this your sincerity in the peace talks?"
"what?"
Song Weizhao glanced at the generals behind him angrily: "How dare she make decisions on my behalf?"
"Your Majesty, the princess is also worried about your safety."
General Alhe who came along explained.
"My life or death has nothing to do with her anymore."
Song Weizhao shouted angrily: "Tell her to withdraw from the border of Shucheng immediately."
Then he ordered the guards behind him: "And you, all of you, go back as well."
"readily."
Lu Linchu also said to Lu Hui: "Order the army to withdraw from the dam. Today is a feud between me and Prince Song. No one is allowed to interfere."
"Prince."
Lu Hui looked bitter after hearing this. Is the prince crazy? He came here in such a hurry just to seize the opportunity, so how could he act so impulsively now?
Just as he was about to persuade him, Lu Linchu immediately winked at him. Lu Hui understood and left quickly.
They only withdrew the troops below the dam and went to set up an ambush to intercept Nalan Yiqing's army. However, they hid powerful crossbows in secret locations on the dam, ready to take the opportunity to shoot and kill Song Weizhao.
Song Weizhao also waved to his personal soldiers: "Retreat."
Seeing this, all the soldiers retreated to the bottom of the dam, leaving only Lu Linchu and Song Weizhao on the empty dam top.
"Tell me, what conditions does Prince Song want in order for him to surrender to my Daning?" Lu Linchu asked hypocritically.
Song Weizhao came to negotiate peace sincerely, and said truthfully: "I have no other request. I can help your Lu family and order the Alhe Iron Cavalry to withdraw from the Central Plains."
At this point, he changed the subject: "The only condition is that I can say goodbye to Guiyun before leaving."
"Prince Song."
Lu Linchu felt very upset when he heard this: "You are as shameless as ever."
In order to deceive his Crown Princess, he even risked his life to gain her trust so that he could meet her in private.
This intention is really sinister.
He drew the sword from his waist angrily and pointed it at the shameless man in front of him. He said sternly: "You want to see Guiyun, you can, but first ask this sword in my hand if it agrees."
"Lu Linchu, you are no match for me, why bother to humiliate yourself?"
Song Weizhao didn't take him seriously at all and was too lazy to even draw his sword.
"Asshole."
Lu Linchu was so angry that he clenched his fists and said, "Since you are seeking death, I will grant your wish today."
A flash of cold light passed by, and he slashed at Song Weizhao in anger.
The sharp blade passed over Song Weizhao's head, and a strand of hair fell from his shoulder. The powerful force made a whistling sound in the wind. Song Weizhao then realized that this man was not an unlearned playboy, but had some real skills.
After being forced back a few steps by him, Song Weizhao quickly drew his sword to fight back.
"Song Weizhao, you are such a spineless wretch, you caused the entire clan to be slaughtered, and you are such a cheap bastard who can only make a living by relying on women. How dare you think about Guiyun? This is simply an insult to her."
Lu Linchu swung his sword and cursed: "You keep saying that you have her in your heart, but you secretly sent someone to assassinate her. Your way of repaying others is really unique."
"What nonsense are you talking about? When did I ever send anyone to assassinate Guiyun?" Song Weizhao was confused.
Lu Linchu sneered: "You should go back and ask the person next to you."
"Nalan Yiqing?"
An unknown rage rose up from his heart, and Song Weizhao was immediately in a state of confusion. In the moment of absent-mindedness, the sharp sword in Lu Linchu's hand quickly cut two cuts on his shoulder.
Realizing that Lu Linchu was deliberately disturbing his mind, Song Weizhao quickly regained his composure and prepared to fight him to the death.
But just as he made up his mind to fight this guy, he saw Lu Linchu retreating with a deep smile.
Afterwards, many sharp arrows were seen flying towards this side silently. Before one could react, the arrow feathers had already flashed towards him.
