Tong Guan escorted Fang La back to Beijing for the time being, let's talk about Song Jiang chasing Shi Wugong for three hundred miles in one day and one night, and came to Hushan in the west of Wuyi County is Chenshi, suddenly the trees in front of him are mixed with dangerous places, and the birds are frightened, Song Jiang and the generals said: "Sun Tzu's Art of War has clouds: 'The grass and many obstacles, doubtful, birds, subdued, beasts, overcome. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info'The terrain here is steep, the trees are thick, Shi Wugong must set up an ambush here, everyone should be careful. ”

Wu Yong said: "I have a way to break it, first ask the archers to shoot it from a distance, if there are enemy soldiers, they will definitely be killed and wounded, and if there are no enemy soldiers, they can also knock on the mountain and shake the tiger, killing two birds with one stone." ”

Song Jiang said: "The military advisor is high. Lu Junyi ordered: "Horse step archers, aim at the dense shade of the trees in front of you and release arrows." Five hundred archers released arrows together, like stars falling into the forest, the forest was indeed Shi Wugong's ambush soldiers, by this sudden rain of arrows shot scattered, many dead and wounded, Shi Wugong hurriedly withdrew his troops, retreated to the Wuyi rendezvous kingdom.

Wu Yong said: "This time you can enter the army safely." Song Jiang led the army forward, came to the place where the arrow fell, and saw the corpses of the Fang army all over the ground, Song Jiang laughed and said: "Smart is mistaken by cleverness, Shi Wugong will retreat into Wuyi City, pass on my order: Hurry up and march to Wuyi." ”

Shi Wugong and the four of them led the troops to the west city of Wuyi, Shi Wugong raised his head and shouted to the city: "I am Shi Wugong, the general of Suichang, the Song army is chasing after me, let me and others enter the city." The sergeant in the city listened to the report to the county office.

After the battle of Huangguling, the kingdom was too seriously injured, and did not go out of the palace every day for half a step, and he was worried about fighting alone, and it was difficult to defend for a long time, and today he learned that Shi Wugong was defeated by the Song army, and came to join Wuyi, endured the pain and went to the city to see, and asked the four people under the city: "I have heard the name of General Shi for a long time, I don't know who it is?"

Shi Wugong said: "Next, please ask General Wang to open the city gate quickly, and the Song army will chase after you." Wang Guo said: "Although I have heard of the great name for a long time, I have never seen it, but I have a certificate? Without a certificate, Wang would not dare to open the city gate without permission." ”

Pang Wanxia raised his head and said, "Does General Wang still recognize me? In the past, you and my brother were close friends, and you and I had a relationship. Pang Wanxia took off his helmet for the kingdom to recognize.

Wang Guo took a closer look and said: "You are Pang Er, since your brother's death, your Pang family still has three brothers, why haven't Wanqiu and Wandong seen each other?" Pang Wanxia said: "The third brother and the fourth brother were killed by Song Jiang and his gang, Brother Wang hurry up and open the city, gossip about the city, the Song army is coming!" Pang Wanxia pointed to the distance, and everyone looked at it, only to see the banner of the Song army moving in the wind, and the smoke and dust came to the ground. The kingdom urgently ordered the opening of the city, put Shi Wugong and more than 1,000 people into the city, and closed the city gates. When Song Jiang's military horses saw Shi Wugong entering the city, they only hated being one step late, and then camped outside the city to fight.

Song Jiang attacked the city here, but Lu Shisang was attacking Yueqing County, Wenzhou. After saying goodbye to Fang Qifo in Chuzhou, Lu Shisang took his subordinate Dazai Lu Zhu, deputy generals Shen Gang, Shen Ze, Shen Luan, Zhao Yi, Ying Ming, Xu Tong and a thousand soldiers to Wenzhou.

After coming to Wenzhou, Lu Zhu proposed: "It is better to attack Yueqing first, Yueqing is located on the coast of the East China Sea, looking at Yuhuan Mountain across the water, you can take Wenzhou City if you enter, and you can defend Yuhuan Island when you retreat, and take advantage of the geographical advantage." Lu Shisang readily agreed, and then led the army to attack Yueqing County.

Yueqing Shouchen's name is Liu Yu, more than forty years old, drunk every day, known as "can't be knocked down". But there are two horses under his command who are quite successful, the head of the horse army is called "Poor and Happy" Xinzhuang, and the head of the infantry is called "Flying on the Grass" Cao Feng.

Xin Zhuang and Cao Feng are both about twenty-six or seventeen years old, although they are not very capable, they are quite proficient in knives, guns and sticks, and thirty or fifty people can't get close.

Xinzhuang is kind and approachable, originally a local tea farmer, although he is poor and white, but he is smiling, so he is called "poor and happy". One day with dozens of neighbors and friends in the county to work in the tea field, Xinzhuang felt bored, so he practiced his fists and feet, suddenly heard the neighbors and friends shouting, Xinzhuang hurriedly walked, but saw a tea ghost, there is more than a zhang, destroy the tea field but want to eat people, Xinzhuang has his own ability to fight with the tea ghost, when he was young, the tea ghost was killed, the matter then spread, ten miles and eight townships did not know, Yueqing Zhixian Liu Yu heard about it, he was promoted to the head of the horse army.

Cao Feng has a strong temper and excellent light skills, and is known as "flying on the grass". It is also the people of this county, and was later requisitioned as a salt worker in Yongjia Salt Farm, because he was dissatisfied with the misdeeds of the government, he discussed with the salt workers to enter the sea as a thief, but he did not want anyone to denounce it, the news leaked and was rounded up by the officers and soldiers, and he was going to be punished. Cao Feng Mao then recommended himself, willing to kill Haijiao to atone for his previous sins, and then with permission, he entered the sea to kill Jiao, exempted from punishment and returned home, Liu Yu heard that he was promoted to the head of the infantry army.

This time, Lu Shisang came to Yueqing, Liu Yu woke up for eight points, and found Xinzhuang and Cao Feng to discuss countermeasures. Cao Feng said: "When this thief doesn't come, I will go to exterminate it, this time it is a sheep in the mouth of a tiger." Xin Zhuang said: "That Lu Shi Nang Wen Taowu is a hundred times better than ordinary people, not to be taken lightly, it is better for us to hold on for the time being, send an urgent document to Wenzhou, and send rescue troops to help as soon as possible." ”

Liu Yu said: "It is this reason, I will write a handwritten letter, and it will be troublesome for Xin Dutou to work hard." Liu Yu then wrote an urgent document, put it in the cover, inserted a feather feather, and handed it to Xinzhuang, who took it, put on a gun and went out of the south gate, to go to Wenzhou for help. Xinzhuang went out of the city less than three miles, but was captured by Lu Shisang's ambush soldiers, Lu Shisang personally untied Xinzhuang's rope, put wine to suppress the shock, Xinzhuang was grateful, and said: "Meng Lu Shuai does not kill the grace, but it is useful, and the liver and brain are smeared." ”

Lu Shisang said: "I heard that there are two strong men in Yueqing, one is your Xin Dutou, and the other is Cao Feng, I don't know if this person can be used by me?" Xin Zhuang said: "This person is very righteous, if Lu Shuai can be captured, I will persuade him to surrender." Lu Shisang was overjoyed and toasted Xinzhuang.

On the second day, Lu Shi Nang personally commanded the troops and horses in the west of Yueqing City, and the sergeants scolded the city, provoking Cao Feng to fight, Cao Feng's face was like topaz, making a big knife and riding a big horse. Lv Shisang looked at the generals to standby, raised the spear to fight in person, Cao Feng came to kill, the two fought eight or nine rounds, Cao Feng was defeated, Lu Shisang rode a horse to chase, reached out and grabbed Cao Feng's back belt, gently lifted from the horse, crossed his horse, ran back to the formation, entered the camp and put people down, Xin Zhuang personally came to persuade, Cao Feng saw that Lu Shisang was righteous, and he attached Lu Shisang.

Tomorrow Lu Shi sang hit the city, less than half an hour, Yueqing City broken, Xin Zhuang, Cao Feng came to find Liu Yu of Zhi County, Liu Yu saw that the city was broken and hanged the county government hall, Xin and Cao were very sad, the body of the county was buried, Lu Shi Bao re-stabilized Yueqing County, and fought hard to prepare for the attack on Wenzhou.

At this time, Liu Weihe, the commander of Yuezhou, learned that Qiu Rixin captured Xinchang and Yan County, and killed Zhi County, and waved his army north to capture Shangyu County, so he led his troops to encircle and suppress Yan County.

Commander Liu's troops came to the west of the county, and before he could scold the city for fighting, the enemy Daoist ordered dozens of crossbows to shoot indiscriminately in the city, arrows were like wooden rafters, and the Song army under the city cried and shouted for his mother, and there were dead and wounded. Liu Tongjun had no choice but to retreat and camp five miles away from the city.

In the middle of the day, a soldier suddenly came into the account to report: "Commander Guo Zhongxun came to help suppress the Kou." Liu Weihe hurriedly greeted each other, and Liu Guo and the two met to salute each other and enter the camp to speak.

Guo Zhongxun asked, "Why does Commander Liu have a sad face?" Liu Weihe said: "Don't hide it from the general, I lost the first battle with Qiu Rixin today, so I retreated here." Guo Zhongxun said: "Yan County is surrounded by water on both sides, only the west and north cities are dry land, it is not easy to capture, Commander Liu and relaxed, Guo came to this matter." ”

Liu Weihe asked: "Isn't Guo Commander already having a good plan?" Guo Zhongxun said: "A good plan does not dare to be, as the saying goes: 'The moon is faint and knows the wind, and the foundation is moist and knows the rain'." Two days ago, I came from Dongyang Hulu Town, occasionally passing by the land temple, seeing that the pillar base in the temple is unusually wet, there will be heavy rain in Wuyue in recent days, if you can divert water to irrigate the city, Yan County is at your fingertips. ”

Liu Weihe said: "Good is good, but the people in the city can't ignore it, if the people want to suffer, this city might as well not be attacked." Guo Zhongxun said: "Those who become big things are not informal, Brother Wei He, as the commander of the Yuezhou side, is indeed right to think about the people, but now the city is a thief city, the people are ****, mercy is a thief, I have ordered the sergeant to dig a canal in the south of the city, stack a dam to intercept the river, and release water to irrigate the city after the heavy rain." ”

Liu Weihe frowned for a moment and said, "It's okay, if you can't knock down the gourd and spill the oil, I hope the people are safe and sound." Liu Weihe set up a banquet in the tent to catch the wind for Guo Zhongxun, until the second watch rested, and in the middle of the night, lightning and thunder roared, and the heavy rain poured down all night, and the water level of Yanxi skyrocketed.

At noon the next day, the rain was weakening, and the stars were falling, Guo Zhongxun and Liu Weihe said: "God really helps me, so our army will win." He then ordered the city to be dug up and flooded. This terrain is also high in the south and low in the north, the big water goes down the canal, and in an instant, it breaks through the south gate of Yan County and enters the city, less than half an hour, the water in the city is knee-deep, the ocean is a piece, and the people flee for their lives.

Qiu Rixin saw that the city had been broken, so he led the troops to find a hundred ships outside the east city, went north along the Cao'e River, abandoned the boat and landed in the Three Realms Town and rushed to Shangyu County, not wanting to meet Yao Pingzhong to calm Shangyu and intercept the way, Yao Pingzhong shouted to Qiu Rixin: "I am the Song general Yao Pingzhong, Shangyu is no longer yours, the living descend, the dead fight." Qiu Rixin scolded: "Just scare three-year-old children with these words, and they won't be able to do anything if they are afraid of death." Then the two armies fought a fierce battle.

Qiu Rixin and Yao Pingzhong lost a battle, had to retreat, led the defeated army to Taoyuan in the southeast of Xinchang, and was surrounded by Yao Pingzhong, Guo Zhongxun, Liu Weihe, Qiu Rixin led the troops to fight to the death, could not get out, and finally exhausted and was killed by the rebel army, and the rest was wiped out.

When the war in Yuezhou subsided, Yao Pingzhong and Guo Zhongxun bid farewell to Liu Weihe, Yao Pingzhong led the army south to Taizhou, and Guo Zhongxun went to Wenzhou. After Liu Weihe sent the two away, he thought that the troubles in Yan County were related to the image of the fire of the "two fires and one sword" of the word "Yan", and personally wrote Shen Wen to ask the imperial court to change Yan County to Shengxian County.

At this time, the imperial court also had a decree: to change Muzhou, build the German army to Yanzhou, Sui'an Army, and Shezhou to Huizhou.

Precisely:

It is difficult to quell the chaos when the two states are renamed, and the survival of one county is resentful.
