Chapter 616: Did you disappear for a while just to resolve the predicament of the Northern Song?

Besides this battle line of Fang La and Liang Shan, several other battle lines, including Great Jin, Great Liao, Western Xia, and the Southern Song, were also repelled at the same time by the suddenly appearing Great Tang army, which possessed extremely strong combat power.

These forces that were launching offensives against the Northern Song tasted the taste of failure for the first time after clashing with the Great Tang army that came to support!

This time, the Great Tang not only sent Yuan Yuan Tiangang to rush to the Northern Song with Huang Shang, but also sent many great generals such as Zhangsun Wuji, Li Jing, Xue Rengui, Li Xiaogong, and Wei Zheng, which could be called the Great Tang's highest lineup.

With the arrival of the Great Tang reinforcements, the originally very unfavorable situation of the Northern Song slowly stabilized.

And they had also begun to slowly recover the lost land and towns!

And the news of the setbacks of the various forces such as Great Liao, Great Jin, Western Xia, Southern Song, Fang La, and Liang Shan, which were attacking the Northern Song, also spread throughout the entire Northern Song in a very short time.

Now, whether it was the common people of the Northern Song or the various prefectures and counties, hope was ignited again in their hearts.

Although they did not know why the Great Tang would suddenly send troops to help their Northern Song overcome the difficulties, now, with the help of the Great Tang,

the people of the Northern Song knew that the Northern Song would absolutely not be a perished nation!

Northern Song, Bianjing.

Song Huizong naturally also knew about the victory reports on the battlefield.

Looking at the battle reports saying that the various forces attacking the Northern Song had all been repelled by the suddenly appearing Great Tang army, and that quite a bit of lost land had been recovered,

a smile finally appeared on Song Huizong Zhao Ji's face again, and the heart that had been suspended for so many days finally slowly relaxed.

Zhao Ji began to rejoice that he had withstood the pressure before and had not listened to what the group of treacherous officials said about surrendering or moving the capital.

Otherwise, if he had really done such an absurd thing at that time, Zhao Ji would have no face to see anyone now.

He might even have been scolded to death by the common people and the pens of the civil officials.

After rejoicing, Zhao Ji slowly pondered for a while, and suddenly he felt that something was wrong with this matter.

"Why would the Great Tang army come to help my Northern Song???"

"Although my Northern Song borders the Great Tang, the distance between the two countries is indeed not far."

"But our Northern Song is experiencing war; shouldn't the Great Tang be happy to see it succeed??? Why would he still send troops to help my Northern Song overcome the difficulties???"

Zhao Ji murmured softly.

Zhao Ji could not understand why the Great Tang would send troops to help the Northern Song repel the various forces for no reason.

If he were in their position, Zhao Gou thought to himself, if it were him, he would inevitably sit on the sidelines and watch the show, and after the various forces were severely injured, if he were in a good mood, he might send troops to harvest a wave of the various forces.

But he would absolutely not be stupid enough to send troops to reinforce a certain force.

Just when Zhao Ji was puzzled, he suddenly heard a voice he had dreamed of hearing.

"Your Majesty, the minister has come late; please punish me!"

Huang Shang suddenly appeared before Zhao Ji and bowed lightly.

Looking at Huang Shang before him, it was as if he saw light in Zhao Ji's eyes.

"Minister Huang! I knew you would not leave me, leave the Northern Song, as others said!"

"You truly did not live up to my trust!"

Zhao Ji said loudly to Huang Shang.

"Minister Huang, are the Great Tang soldiers currently intercepting the various factions on my territory here at your invitation?"

"Did you disappear for a while just to resolve the predicament of the Northern Song?"

Looking at Zhao Ji's questions, Huang Shang's eyes also became slightly more lively.

Looking at Zhao Ji was as if seeing a child who had grown up and could think; it instantly made Huang Shang feel some gratification in his heart.

Seeing the Zhao Ji before him finally willing to think about problems himself, Huang Shang's eyes even became a bit hazy.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Huang Shang bowed again and said softly.

"The time the minister disappeared was precisely to go to the Great Sui and Great Tang to request reinforcements, letting these countries without war help my Northern Song resolve the predicament we could not resolve ourselves." ===== CHAPTER 617 =====
