Subsequently, he ordered the Bu Liang Ren to go to the battlefield where Wuming and the other five had fought the Turks to search for their traces, and gave the Bu Liang Ren a death order.

"If you do not bring the six of them back to me, you need not return either!"

Li Shimin said to the Bu Liang Ren very coldly.

Then he stopped worrying about the Bu Liang Ren and directly began to think about whether to withdraw a portion of the troops from Northern Song.

Li Shimin looked at the front-line military report; it was already very clear that after the great battle where Wuming and the other five disappeared, the Turkic army seemed as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

In one breath, they captured several cities in succession; if he did not send reinforcements now, the entire Weishui area might fall into the Turks' pockets.

After struggling for a moment, Li Shimin sighed helplessly.

Finally, he decided to let a portion of the troops in Northern Song withdraw to confront the Turks.

"If this time I cannot completely swallow the national destiny of Northern Song,"

"I fear that in this lifetime, I will truly no longer be Ying Ziyu's opponent."

At the thought of Ying Ziyu, even Li Shimin, who was known as the Heavenly Khan, felt a trace of powerlessness in his heart.

After all, Ying Ziyu alone possessed three-tenths of the heavenly destiny from the Heaven's Pride Ranking, the Divine Weapon Ranking, and the Famous Sword Ranking; especially on the Heaven's Pride Ranking and the Famous Sword Ranking, Ying Ziyu was the top existence.

This time, Li Shimin wanted to rapidly annex the national destiny of the various forces in Northern Song, just to gamble and see if Great Tang, after gaining the national destiny, could defeat Ying Ziyu, who was favored by the Heavenly Dao.

After writing the letter, Li Shimin sent someone to deliver it to Yuan Tiangang in Northern Song at top speed.

"You must deliver this letter to Yuan Shi!"

Li Shimin said very seriously to the Bu Liang Ren beside him.

Following an affirmative response, the Bu Liang Ren who took the letter quickly disappeared from Li Shimin's sight.

After doing all this, Li Shimin sat decadently on the chair beside him.

At this moment, Li Shimin was physically and mentally exhausted, even more tired than when he had experienced the Xuanwu Gate Incident to seize the throne.

The reason Li Shimin still had not sent Li Chunfeng out during this difficult time for Great Tang was precisely because Li Shimin faintly felt that more things were about to happen.

So he kept Li Chunfeng in Changancheng; after all, compared to the swift and decisive Yuan Tiangang, the meticulous Li Chunfeng gave Li Shimin more peace of mind.

"I hope everything does not become too bad."

"I hope heaven blesses Great Tang."

Li Shimin closed his eyes and whispered softly.

Only when there was no one around did Li Shimin dare to remove his disguise and reveal his helpless side.

……

Northern Song, Bianjing.

Ever since Northern Song fell into the predicament of being besieged by multiple sides, Zhao Ji had also put down his hobbies and began reading the military reports coming from various sides.

At first, Zhao Ji only looked at the military reports as a formality and then ignored them, but after Huang Shang invited the Great Tang army to come to Northern Song, Zhao Ji began to study the situation in Northern Song very diligently.

Zhao Ji had begun to suspect whether Huang Shang had already secretly defected to Great Tang.

Zhao Ji, looking at the military report in his hand, could no longer hold back the excitement in his eyes.

In the military report, because Great Jin had ambushed Southern Song, the traitor Song Huizong Zhao Gou had already ordered a retreat.

And all the forces of Western Xia in Northern Song had also been jointly annihilated by their Northern Song and Great Tang armies, and now their Northern Song soldiers and the Great Tang army had together entered the territory of Western Xia.

If there were no accidents, perhaps it would not be long before they could enter the capital of Western Xia.

And the Great Jin army that had come to Northern Song was only a small portion, and now they had been surrounded and annihilated by the Northern Song and Great Tang armies on a high mountain.

Now the troops of Great Jin within Northern Song could only make their final struggle as trapped beasts.

And the rebels of Liang Shan and Fang La, who had previously been making a big stir within Northern Song, were now like turtles in their shells, passively defending all the time.

They did not have the slightest bit of courage to come out and fight.

Seeing that all these situations were developing in a good direction, Song Huizong Zhao Ji could not help but laugh out loud.

Song Huizong felt that all this improvement was because their Northern Song army was brave and skilled in battle; as for the Great Tang army having saved them from a certain-death situation, Song Huizong had not thought about it at all.

"Hahahaha, my Great Song army is indeed invincible!!!"

"I said it, just relying on these few ambitious rebels, they absolutely have no ability to swallow my Great Song!"

Song Huizong Zhao Ji said loudly while laughing.

But just when Zhao Ji was very happy, Huang Shang suddenly appeared before him.

Looking at Huang Shang, who had a worried look in his eyes, Zhao Ji did not have the same enthusiasm as before.

"Is there any urgent matter for Huang Aiqing to return so hurriedly?"

Zhao Ji said to Huang Shang very casually.

Seeing Zhao Ji holding the military report and reading it, Huang Shang's eyes revealed some joy.

He felt that his Emperor Majesty had finally grown up a bit, but once he thought of the news he had just learned, Huang Shang's eyes were once again filled with worry.

"Your Majesty, Great Tang has suffered a sudden attack from the Turks."

"Now Great Tang must withdraw a portion of its troops."

Huang Shang said to Zhao Ji somewhat anxiously.

But Zhao Ji, upon hearing Huang Shang's words, actually had a glimmer of brilliance in his eyes and could not help but laugh out loud!. ===== CHAPTER 837 =====
