When Yue Fei saw the other party pulling out a knife and pointing it at him, he didn't panic at all. Instead, he answered calmly with the same Hebei accent as the other party:
"I would like to teach you, Chief Li, that I was surrounded by the Jin army in Hebei that day. When I broke out, I was injured by an arrow cluster on my eyebrow bone. So I looked at everyone and rolled my eyes. I didn't mean to look down on anyone."
Li Cheng suddenly froze, and before he could think of how to respond, Zhang Rong next to him simply put his hands on his hips and laughed, which made Li Cheng even more embarrassed and unable to get off the ground!
"alright!"
At this moment, Old Lieutenant Yang suddenly spoke. "Fu Xuan, go and collect the weapons of the heroes here..."
It has to be said that Yang Weizhong seemed rude before, but in fact he has become a mature man. He didn't speak for a long time, but when he opened his mouth, it was just right. He not only gave Li Cheng a chance to step down, but also resolved the conflict between Li Cheng, Zhang Rong, and Yue Fei.
By the way, he strengthened his authority.
After hearing the military order, a young military minister under Yang Weizhong immediately stepped forward and led several other military ministers. From front to back, they collected the weapons of everyone in the hall. They only collected one table, and the second one came in order.
Arriving in front of Yue Fei and Ma Kuo.
Ma Kuo didn't take it seriously and directly handed over the sword in his waist, but Yue Fei actually stood still.
"This Commander Yue..." the military attaché named Fu Xuan couldn't help but urge.
"Are you from the Taihang Mountain Eight-Character Army?" Yue Fei sat still, just looking up at the eight tattoos on this man's cheek, sighing slightly. "It shouldn't belong to the twelve soldiers who crossed the river that day, right? Otherwise, I wouldn't not remember you.
.”
The man was startled for a moment, and then became solemn: "Returning to the Yue rule, the Jin people moved the Jurchens, and the Khitans violently settled in various military states in Hebei. Hundreds of thousands of troops came back and forth at every turn, and their demands were excessive. The people of Hebei could not survive, so they started to raise troops one after another.
The Taihang Mountains gathered together... Among them, the Wuma Mountain in the North Taihang had King Xin as a guarantee, and was the most powerful in the north; while the South Taihang had the most famous name of Wang Taiwei's Eight-Character Army... I am Mrs. Wang who left home to join the army in November last year.
The word "lieutenant", "then stab", has indeed been heard in Xiao Fan's mouth as "Yue Tongzhi"."
Yue Fei nodded slightly, glanced at Ma Kui beside him, and then continued to ask: "Since the Eight-Character Army is so powerful, why are you here again?"
"Didn't they get dispersed by the main force of the Jin Army when they were going down the mountain?" Fu Xuan replied helplessly. "The momentum in the mountains is getting louder and louder, but once they enter the plain, they are really no match for the Jin Army's cavalry... Fortunately, after this defeat,
When I was traveling east, I happened to meet Captain Yang, so I followed him all the way."
Yue Fei nodded again.
"Yue Tongzhi." Fu Xuan finished chatting with Yue Fei in front of the whole hall, but finally urged him. "If you want to talk, let's serve wine tonight. I will tell you slowly. Please turn in your weapons at this time."
...Let brothers do their best!"
Yue Fei finally held the sword in his waist and slowly shook his head: "Lieutenant Yang recognizes me, and you have heard of me, so you must know that I am the commander of the left-behind department in Tokyo of the Song Dynasty, a high-level martial arts master, and this must be the official hall of the Song Dynasty.
There is no reason why the powerful ruler of the Song Dynasty and a group of bandits generally have to hand over their weapons."
Ma Kuo was embarrassed when he heard this, Fu Xuan was also caught off guard, but Yang Weizhong simply turned his head and remained silent.
"What do you mean?!" Li Cheng in the hall became furious again when he heard this, and drew his sword for the second time. "What kind of bird commander you are, you still look down on me, Li Cheng, right?!"
"It's not that I'm looking down on Chief Li, I'm just telling the truth." Yue Fei said sincerely.
Li Cheng became even more furious. He jumped forward and struck him in the head with a knife.
Seeing this situation, the two people closest to him, Ma Kuo and Fu Xuan, reacted very quickly. One quickly tried to uncover the case and stop it, while the other immediately turned around and touched the knife.
But Li Cheng is not just a showman, and he is vicious and not just trying to bluff people. This sword is powerful and powerful, but it is also extremely fast. It is just for killing people. Relatively speaking, Fu Xuan
Before he could turn around and touch the weapon, he could already see the light of the sword. As for Ma Kuo, he didn't raise the case at all... because there was one person who reacted much faster than the two of them. When Yue Pengju saw the other person coming to chop him, he stepped on it directly.
After a few cases, he lowered his waist and exerted his strength, drawing his sword and facing it!
In an almost electric flash, everyone's eyes were dazzled, and the two men fought hard in the hall! And when the blades met, sparks actually flew out!
Except for the civil servant who was dumbfounded, almost all of the people present here were people who worked hard on the sword. With just one sword, they understood the reality of these two people, but they all became awe-inspiring. They even promoted Han Shizhong, who was well-informed.
Old Lieutenant Yang couldn't help but squint his eyes slightly.
As for Yue Fei and Li Cheng, they were even more vigilant. While holding their swords, they also looked at each other carefully... The former really didn't expect that this grassroots bandit had such martial arts and strength, and was a little bit emotional; the latter was even more frightened, because of this
He was born in Hebei, joined the army in Huainan, Luocao Shandong, and traveled all over the north and south of the river. Nothing else. He only boasted of being invincible in martial arts. However, today's sneak attack turned out to be a draw. Doesn't this explain the mediocre Song Dynasty in front of him?
Are military officers better than me in martial arts?
So why not be surprised?!
"Li Cheng!"
Just as the two of them were silently confronting each other, Old Lieutenant Yang spoke again, but his position was already clear. "What do you mean by trying to kill a serious ruler of our Song Dynasty in the lobby of the government of the Song Dynasty?!"
After these words were spoken, Fu Xuan and others came to their senses and drew their swords one after another. A group of Shandong heroes following Li Cheng also drew their swords and faced each other, but were stopped by Li Cheng who had come to his senses and raised his hand.
Not only that, this man actually took the initiative to put away the knife, took a step forward with his chest raised, and faced with his bare hands the dozen or so military attachés of the Song Army who were holding white blades in front of him, and then spoke to Yang Weizhong behind him through these officers:
"Old Lieutenant Yang, we all came here today to fight against the Jin under your banner... Of course it was me, Li Cheng, who drew the sword first and broke the rules in the hall today, but are you going to kill me for this?
?Kill me, who of the two heroes from Jingdong and Dong would still believe in the will of the officials? The officials fled all the way from Hebei to Huaishang. Only then did they cheer up in shame and anger, and made up their minds not to retreat again. As a result, he still failed to break his promise there. Mrs. Yang
Is Wei Bin going to ruin the reputation of the official family in Jingdong?!"
"A sharp tongue..." Yang Weizhong couldn't help twisting his beard and sneered. "With such a sharp tongue, why did you fall behind when talking to Leader Zhang just now?"
Zhang Rong was slightly startled when he thought about it.
"No matter what, if Old Lieutenant Yang doesn't kill me, I will take the first step!" As he said this, Li Cheng did not hold up his knife or pay attention to the Song Army officer in front of him. He just took a deep look and his face was as usual.
Yue Fei sat back down and walked out of the hall quickly.
And since this man left, many Shandong heroes, or heroes on Jingdong East Road, looking around, probably felt that Li Cheng was gone and it would be difficult for them to gain a foothold here, and they all started to say goodbye...
The bustling lobby was half empty.
However, Zhang Rong smiled with his arms akimbo: "How about, Old Lieutenant Yang, how about I be your deputy this time? You can also do it for me as a commander. When I go back to Liangshan, I can wear a red flower on my head to show off...
…”
"Chief Zhang, wait a minute, let me go to the backyard to take a breather." Yang Weizhong pinched his beard and stood up directly, but then he changed into fluent Mandarin. "Yue Fei, Ma Kuo, you two come with me to the backyard!"
"It's up to you, old lieutenant!" Zhang Rong couldn't help but grin again.
Yue Pengju and Ma Zichong immediately got up, and Fu Xuan and others hurriedly followed... It should be noted that Yue Fei had been directly subordinate to Yang Weizhong in the Marshal's Mansion before. As for Ma Kuo, he was from Di Dao in Xizhou and had a background in the Western Army, otherwise he would not have been arrested before.
Yang Weizhong easily called out a piece of paper. How could he dare to neglect him at this time?
"Yue..."
He didn't reach the backyard at all, he just turned into the corridor behind the lobby. Yang Weizhong couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to speak.
"Then Li Chengcheng has bad intentions."
However, before the old lieutenant could ask the question, Yue Fei had already answered calmly. "Although he is from Hebei, his subordinates are all from Jingdong East Road. I dare to ask them how a group of bandits from Jingdong East Road abandoned Mount Tai."
, Yimeng Mountain has a favorable geographical location, abandoned his hometown, went to the east and west roads of Beijing to fight against the Jin? But he saw that troubled times had emerged, so he searched for the place where the Jin people fought with us, with the intention of swinging back and forth, raising prices, and even seizing the opportunity to separatist rule.
That’s it! To put it bluntly, at this time the officials were resisting the Jin army on the Huaihe River. If they could not withstand it, the Huaihe River would be trampled by the Jin army, and these people would go to the two Huaihe rivers to cause chaos.
of."
Yang Weizhong thought for a while and found that he couldn't refute it. Even Ma Kuo, Fu Xuan and others all nodded in agreement.
"As for Zhang Rong, it's different." Yue Fei continued without changing his expression. "Half of Liangshan in Shuibo is within the territory of Jeju, but this time the five thousand gold army is pressing down on Jeju City next to Liangshan, and then it is still domineering.
Trampling on the people, Zhang Rong, as the master of the water pool, and his subordinates are all poor fishermen who make a living on the water pool. I am afraid that he is as determined as us to deal with this golden army... Therefore, Zhang Rong can use it with confidence! And he wants to defeat it.
The only way for the five thousand Jin Army cavalry in Jeju is to lure the Jin Army into the water and take advantage of the land to destroy them!"
Yang Weizhong thought for a long time, but still had nothing to say. Fu Xuan and Ma Kuo could only nod.
"Call Zhang Rong!" Yang Weizhong naturally understood when he saw Yue Fei stopped talking for a while.
Suddenly, Zhang Rong came in with his arms akimbo, and when he saw the three of them standing here, he continued to laugh.
Unexpectedly, Yue Fei didn't bother to argue with this person at all. Instead, he immediately asked: "How many soldiers does Zhang Tongzhi have?"
Zhang Rong couldn't help but feel solemn and stepped forward to intervene: "Are Old Taiwei Yang and Commander Yue really going to fight?"
Yang Weizhong and Yue Fei were both speechless.
Zhang Rong had no choice but to nod: "If we fight on the road out of the water village, I can only have seven or eight thousand young men! But my control is no better than yours. I don't live on the free wages of my fellow villagers, and you won't compete with my wages..."
"What if we were lured to the bank of the water?" Yue Fei was too lazy to talk to the other party, so he asked seriously.
"Then I can summon 15,600! They are all capable of shooting bows, rowing boats and using knives, but they don't have many armors." Zhang Rong became more serious. "Are you really going to fight? Don't bluff me!"
"How many soldiers does the old lieutenant have?" Yue Fei turned around and asked again.
"I only have about a thousand remaining troops, but Commander Fu brought more than three thousand troops from the Taihang Mountains..."
"That's enough." Yue Pengju squinted his eyes and replied. "Select 20,000 people and use the power of the water to find a good place to set up an ambush. It's enough to break the enemy! You know, 5,000 enemies, 20,000 people ambush
It's enough, any more is useless."
Lieutenant Yang, Ma Kuo, and Fu Xuan still didn't know how to refute.
"Shuibao Liangshan is eight hundred miles away. There are so many places with gods and goddesses. Even if I close my eyes, I can tell where Jin Jun can die and feed the fish." Zhang Rong, however, still felt a little confused. "But how could Jin Jun take the initiative to come to Shuibao?"
, and fall into my ambush?”
"Of course, we can take advantage of the enemy's rampage to lure them there." Yue Fei answered simply.
"Whoever tries to lure the enemy, there are five thousand Jin Kingdom cavalry!" Zhang Rong put his hands on his hips again and sneered. "Whoever tries to do so is going to die!"
"Of course I'll go." Yue Fei still spoke calmly.
The spring was warm but the flowers were not yet blooming, and the wind was blowing in the corridor. Now, even Zhang Rong didn't know how to refute.
"Do you really want to fight?" After a long pause, Zhang Rong stepped forward to intervene again.
"How many days will it take to be ready to do this?" Yang Weizhong asked through gritted teeth, twirling his beard.
"Are you short of ordnance there? How long will it take to recruit manpower?" Yue Fei continued to ask, but it was to Zhang Rong.
"There is no shortage, and there is no need to spend time recruiting people. Everything is ready in the water village, and everyone is here... We have gathered together to guard against the Jin army. I just need to send a boat to pick you up and sneak across from Jishui." Zhang
Rong Ye gritted his teeth and answered.
"So how many days will it take from now until the crossing is arranged?" Yue Fei continued to ask.
"Five days are enough... You will set off early tomorrow morning and rush on your way. You can arrive at the waterfront at noon the day after tomorrow, sit on the boat all night, rest one day and night, and repair your equipment. On the fifth day, you will be able to ambush in any case.
...I can see this even when I close my eyes." Zhang Rong actually became a little flustered. "I have walked this road countless times."
"Then defeat the enemy in five days."
Yue Fei turned around and replied calmly to Yang Weizhong, as if he was talking to an emotionless idiot. "The old lieutenant has such a great reputation that he might as well stay here with the remaining soldiers and the small group of rebels to drink and have fun.
To attract him, it would be best for Chief Zhang to have a quarrel with the old lieutenant in public, and then go back secretly tonight; and tomorrow morning, Brother Ma and Commander Fu will quickly lead their troops to Liangshan Po; I will lead five hundred cavalry from Dingtao.
Cross the river here to the south bank of Jishui, and on the 28th day of the fifth day of the first lunar month, lead the main force of the Jin Army to the water park... At that time, you will be ready to support me in front of the water park and guide me into the ambush circle, and then 20,000 people
Let's attack together, the outcome will be decided in one battle... Don't waste time, it will change over time, we are not in that position, everything needs to be discussed with all the gentlemen."
Yang Weizhong twirled his beard and stared at Yue Fei for a long time, as if he was looking at something weird, and instinctively wanted to refute the other party's nonsense. However, after considering his half-life military experience and thinking about it, he still didn't know how to refute.
As for Fu Xuan and Ma Kuo, they had already been stunned.
However, Zhang Rong calculated with his fingers and couldn't help but say something more: "Five days from now, it will be the 28th day of the first lunar month. I would also like to ask Governor Yue to lead the Jin people over after noon but before the middle of the afternoon."
"Can."
Yue Fei still looked like a piece of wood, but after all he took a slight look at the fisherman-like Lord of Liangshan in front of him.
ps: You guys say that I am short-sighted every day, but I took a look... A certain new book with better results than mine, with exactly 200,000 words, was released half a month earlier than me, and was divided into 90 chapters! What a conscience of heaven and earth.
