The Northern War will draw the curtain, and Kunpeng will show its might from then on.

On the 8th day of October in the fourth year of Xuanhe, Liu Yanqing's troops left Xiongzhou, and by the 29th the whole army was defeated, since Shenzong Xining and Yuanfeng had accumulated armaments for decades, all the expenses were discarded, but on the 20th, although the Song army was defeated, there were still 100,000 horses in Xiongzhou, and the Liao army did not dare to easily offend the Song because of the Jurchen trouble. Emperor Daojun was very annoyed when he learned that Tong Guan was defeated in Youzhou for the second time, and personally wrote a letter to Tong Guan, reprimanding: "The Northern Expedition is related to the fortunes of the country. The Taishi twice went out unfavorably, so that our army buried hundreds of thousands of corpses on the battlefield, and the king suffered all the defeats, and the money and food were spent, and all of them were the fault of Qing!

On the first day of November, the Imperial Treasure Supervisor was ordered to carve a new dragon seal, and Emperor Daojun changed the seal. In mid-November, worship the Taimiao and Haotian God, and give amnesty to the world. In late November, the Jin State sent Li Jing to promise to return the six states in front of the Taihang Mountain. The Son of Heaven of Daojun made Zheng Shen a lieutenant with the Zhangde Army.

Before Tong Guan's second expedition to Liao, Yue Fei followed Chen Guang to learn guns in Liquan Mountain, and he had learned his skills.

Suddenly, Chen Guang asked Yue Fei and said, "Pengju, why did you learn swords, guns, and cavalry and archery?"

Yue Fei replied: "As the saying goes: 'If you learn literature and martial arts, you will sell the goods to the emperor's family'. I learned this skill in order to serve in the army and protect the territory, even if I am a horse leather shroud, I will not be in vain with the blood of the man!"

Chen Guang said: "Now that you have learned the skills of me and Zhou Tong, you have no regrets as a teacher." Fang went down to **** today, it is the time for men to use force, you can go down the mountain tomorrow and show your ambition. ”

Yue Fei said: "My teacher taught great kindness, and it will be difficult to repay it for the rest of my life." "Then he knelt down and bowed his head.

Tomorrow, Yue Fei packed up, brought the glutinous rice, and was about to go down the mountain. Chen Guang said to Yue Fei again: "Attacking the enemy with a gun is nothing more than stabbing, poking, pointing, sweeping, and picking; Whenever you use a weapon like a spear, remember to fortify in the attack, and lead the attack in the defense. Teach you these 36 ways of Liquan marksmanship for the teacher, so that you can have a role in the horse and long soldiers in the future. Your senior brothers, Lu Junyi and Lin Chong, have the skills of swords, guns and horses, and they can be described as invincible in the world. The courage of Lu Zhishen and Wu Song is also unparalleled in the world. There is also the Gaojia gun of the Lanling King, if it is passed down in the world, it is also difficult to compete, so this marksmanship is not the first today. It is necessary to know that there are people outside the world, and there are heavens outside the sky. Yue Fei only obeyed.

Chen Guang and Yue Fei said the mantra poem of the Liquan gun again, and the formula said:

Immediately make the waist of the gun do the step, and the middle nine road scratches the eyes.

When the chest is a little with double ribs, the sharp blade pierces the throat and hangs on both shoulders.

The war horse ran flat and the dragon stirred the water, and the two horses turned around.

Then there are nine ways to defend the body, and five dials and four gears are covered.

Step down to make the spear dragon coil tree, and go down to the middle nine road to save the ankle.

Ten steps and five swing the door, and the gun is made of sticks and wind curling leaves.

pretended to be defeated and dragged the gun, and turned around with four locks and five points.

Thirty-six ways to break the enemy, forty-nine changes to the god machine.

Yue Fei listened to it and memorized the formula. Chen Guang took out a red flower wrapping cloth from the house, and sent Yue Fei to the bottom of the mountain, Yue Fei burst into tears on his cheeks, and cried: "Peng Ju is here, I don't know when I will see my teacher again?"

Chen Guang said: "On the day of our meeting, you and I will give you another object for the teacher." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and handed the wrapping cloth to Yue Fei, Yue Fei inserted the Liquan gun, took the wrapping cloth in his hand, opened it to see, and was surprised, but saw that the wrapping cloth was a sword, the scabbard was densely covered with birds and beasts, and the hilt of the sword was engraved with the pattern of Cirrus Cloud Flying Dragon.

Yue Fei was happy when he saw it, and drew his sword in his hand, and his voice was like a dragon's groan. The sword was more than three feet long, and it became more and more dazzling in the sunlight.

Yue Fei asked, "My master, what is the name of this sword?"

Chen Guang said: "This is the Longquan sword, according to legend, it was cast by Ou Yezi, and it was quenched with Longquan water in Xiping County, Runan, so it was named. It is extremely sharp, sharpening copper and breaking iron, and it will be broken if it is hit, so you can give it a try. ”

Yue Fei listened, held the sword in his right hand, walked to the big bluestone beside him, and waved it as if cutting tofu, and the bluestone "clicked" and was neatly cut in half.

There is a dragon spring in Runan Xiping, and Ouyeel casts a sword and quenches the divine water.

Wu Mu's first try, how sharp was it?

After Yue Fei tried the sword, he saw that the blade was not defective, and as before, he was happy to do it, inserted the sword back into the sheath, thanked the master, and bowed a few times.

Chen Guang said: "It's not early, let's start quickly! I won't send it as a teacher, Yonghe Township is not far from here, think of Master, you can come and see." ”

Yue Fei agreed, still wrapped Longquan in a wrapping cloth, put his back on his back, picked up the Liquan gun, quit Chen Guang, threw himself on the road, and went straight to his hometown. After Chen Guangmu sent Yue Fei away, he also returned to the mountain.

Yue Fei walked about dozens of miles, the sky gradually darkened, and he saw that he was only ten miles away from Tangyin County, passing by a pine forest where wolves and tigers were hidden, but suddenly two reckless men flashed out of the pine forest, but they were dressed like strong men, and they all covered their faces with soap towels, and they carried bows and arrows behind their backs. The person on the left hand has a horizontal bar and a long pole "Colorful Goose Feather Knife", and the person on the right hand has a pestle root "Wolf Tooth Shaking Stick".

Yue Fei saw it and shouted: "The sun is blue and the sky is blue, where are the robbers spreading wild here!"

The man who made the Yan Ling knife said: "Seeing that you are also a poor ghost dressed as a man, and leave the objects you are carrying behind you, I will allow you to go over, otherwise I will not recognize the Pu Dao in my hand!"

Yue Fei was very familiar with the man's words, but said, "If you are a good man, why don't you show your true face." ”

The man who made the mace shouted: "Less nonsense, look at the stick!" raised the stick to smash Yue Fei, and Yue Fei also made the gun return.

As soon as the two of them went up and down, they fought for three or five rounds, so that the mace man couldn't parry, and the man with the Yanling knife came to help, how could the two of them resist Yue Fei, and after another three or five rounds, they were knocked to the ground by Yue Fei with a gun.

The two stood up, tore off the soap cloth covering their faces, and shouted: "Don't play, Yue Pengju is also a little ruthless to you, our brothers are playing tricks with you, and we almost lost our lives." ”

Yue Fei saw the two of them and smiled: "I knew it was the two of you, and I would like to play with me, so I can suffer with you." The two laughed too.

It turned out that these two people were fellow villagers of Yue Fei, and the name of the Yanling knife was Wang Gui, who was eight feet long, thoughtful, and brave. What is the appearance? There are poems as proof:

The face is white, the mouth is bright, and the ape-arm shooter is strong.

Angry silkworm eyebrows are accustomed to knives and guns, and the people of Manxian County are called Wang Dalang.

The mace named Xu Qing was seven feet five inches long, with an unobstructed mouth and a violent personality. What does it look like?

The eyebrows are divided into eight brocade carvings, and the body is like a demon king.

has always helped the weak and dared to fight the strong, and he was called Xu Ye in ten miles and eight towns.

Yue Fei saw the two of them and asked, "Brother Wang, Brother Xu, how did you know that I was coming back?"

Wang Gui said: "I didn't know the two of us, but I had nothing to do in my spare time, and I was going to turn around when I hit some wild things on the barren mountains in these four places, and I occasionally saw you coming from the road, so I robbed the road with a mask, pretended to be a bandit, and made a fuss." ”

Xu Qingdao: "How do you know that if you learn these skills, you can overturn the two of us, and you can be regarded as invincible in Tangyin County." ”

Yue Feiqian conceded: "Don't dare." The three of them gossiped and went back to Tangyin County together, until Yonghe Township, where they went home separately.

Besides, Yue Fei said goodbye to those two and returned home alone, his father Yue He, his mother Yao, and two sisters and brothers were extremely happy, so they prepared wine and food and a feast.

During the banquet, Yue He asked Yue Fei: "My son has completed his studies, what are your plans?"

Yue Fu said: "My brother has learned a lot of skills, it is better to join the army, serve on the battlefield, and defend the country." ”

Yue Ying glared at Yue Yue and said, "Father speaks, you don't interject." ”

Yue Fei said: "Brother is right, I have this intention, and joining the army is exactly what I want." ”

Mrs. Yao said: "Pengju just returned today, regardless of those. "The family pushes the cup and changes the lamp. Until night, they will be happy and disperse, and they will rest in peace.

Two days later, a disciple of Songshan went to Yue's house to hand over a letter from Zhou Tong to Yue Fei, and Yue Fei asked the little monk and said, "How is the old man?"

The little monk replied, "Master is fine. Then he folded his hands in good-bye, and turned to go out.

Yue Fei opened the letter and read it, and the letter meant to let Yue Fei return to the mountain.

Yue Fei looked at it and said to his family: "Master has sent a letter for no reason, there must be a reason, I have to go back to Songshan, and my brother quickly tied the horse to the bridle with me." Yue heard this, and hurriedly went to the stable to lead the horse out, prepared the saddle bridle, tightened the belly belt, and pulled it to the door.

Yue Fei took the coil, said goodbye to his parents and brothers, pulled the saddle and got on the horse, Yue turned and handed the whip, Yue Fei took it, and said, "I will return in a few days." "Then he beat his horse and left.

It was noon, and he came to Songshan in a few days, and at noon, he came to the abbot and wanted to see Zhou Tong, but there was a novice who said: "The elder is in the meditation, it has been nine days, and you should not disturb without permission." ”

Yue Fei had to wait in front of the door, and after two hours, he heard a voice from the room: "But Pengju is here, come in!" Yue Fei heard the voice, and opened the door with all the brothers and sisters, only to see Zhou Tong sitting on the meditation bed, slightly closing his eyes, and everyone dared not speak.

Zhou Tongxu opened his eyes, looked at the disciples and said, "You are all gone, and I have something to say with Yue Fei." All the disciples hurriedly walked out of the abbot's meditation hall and waited outside.

Yue Fei took a few steps forward and asked softly, "Master recruited disciples to return to the mountain, I don't know what happened?"

Zhou Tong said: "The limit for the teacher has arrived, and I must die within a few days, I am the same township as you, and after I die, I can be buried back in the township, and I don't have to be in Songshan." ”

Yue Fei exclaimed: "Why did Master say this? Master has such a body, no illness and no harm, how can he pass away!"

Zhou Tong said: "Don't fight with the sky, don't fight with the earth, don't fight with life." There is a place for life and a place for death, and no one in the world can escape. Yue Fei was puzzled and wanted to ask again, but seeing that Zhou Tong had closed his eyes and calmed down, he walked out of the abbot and covered the door. All the disciples gathered around and asked questions, Yue Fei told the monks what the master had said, and the monks were surprised, and one of them asked, "Does the master want to eat and tea?"

Yue Fei said: "No, the master has rested, let's send it in for dinner!" Everyone listened and went to get busy.

Within a few days, after Zhou Tong bathed, he changed into a new robe, and still twisted the Buddhist beads in the Dharma hall and closed his eyes to chant the scriptures. At noon, a little monk went to fast, but saw Zhou Tong sitting on the meditation bed, and he had passed away. The little monk panicked and hurriedly called everyone. Yue Fei cried when he saw it, and the other Zen guests also mourned. Zhou was 80 years old at the same time. There is only one "Linjiang Immortal" to talk about Zhou Tong. The words say:

In the early years, he was famous in the Royal Boxing Gym, and there were many beautiful seasons. I hate traitors for making courts. Suddenly called to bury his name, and his ambition was frustrated and he was empty.

Disheartened and sent the latter, the apprentices crisscrossed the north and south. Cultivate a good general for the country. A generation of loyal ministers and teachers, leaving a holy name through the ages.

Yue Fei cried, and saw that there was a hymn by Zhou Tong's side, which was written by Zhou Tong himself, which read:

The water of the Taotao River flows eastward, and the muddy mud and sand are churning. Fish, turtles, shrimps and crabs follow the waves, and the gold and jade sink to the bottom without a trace. The world accumulates evil obstacles, it is better to sit on the purple golden lotus.

When the monks saw this, they burned incense and prayed. Yue Fei obeyed the master's orders, helped him return to his hometown, and found a treasure land in Yonghe Township that leaned on the mountains and rivers, and buried Zhou Tong. Yue Fei thanked his master for his kindness, so he built a grass house next to the temple to keep filial piety for his master.

Yue Fei went to Zhou Tong's tomb on the first and fifteenth days of the new year to pay respects, and shot three arrows with the archery skills passed down by the master. His father-in-law and Yue praised him: "If you are used for the time, you will die of loyalty!"

Yue Fei's period of filial piety has passed, and he happened to hear that Tong Guan was defeated by the Liao State for the second time, and Hebei was recruiting troops to prevent the Liao State from invading, Yue Fei wanted to apply, Wang Gui and Xu Qing also came to find Yue Fei, and prepared to enlist in the army, so they packed their bags, packages, horses, weapons, coils and other things, said goodbye to relatives and friends, and rushed straight to Hebei Road.

Yue Fei and the three of them had just left Tangyin County, but they saw two people in charge, each riding a tall horse, the one on the left was carrying a gun in his hand, and the one on the right was holding a horizontal knife, blocking the way, and shouted: "Where are you waiting?"

Yue Fei and the three laughed when they saw it: "You two hairy gods are looking for you, why are you here?" It turns out that the two people blocking the road are none other people, and the one holding the gun is Meng Bangjie, what is the image? There is a poem as proof:

Yuanbao's ears and nose are bulging, and his thick eyebrows and golden eyes are slightly red.

The spear in his hand is mighty, like a reckless general.

The horizontal knife is used by Zhang, what is the image? There is a poem as proof:

The gentleman's face is not strong, and there is an extra bone in the back of his head.

The horizontal knife is really brave immediately, just like Wei Yan in the world.

At that moment, Yue Fei, Xu Qing, Wang Gui, Zhang Yong, and Meng Bangjie met, and Meng Bangjie and Zhang Yong also went to join the army, and the five of them went all the way. On the road, I stayed at night, ate wine in the store, ate meat in the shop, and talked about some national affairs.

Half a month later, the five people came to Zhending, Hebei, and came to the army to enlist, and the recruiter was Liu Tao, a staff officer of Xuanfu in Hebei and Hedong.

Liu Yun's character Zhongyan, also known as Liu Fugao, is Qiangon. A native of Chong'an, Jianzhou, he once served as the lieutenant of Fengcheng County, Jiangxi, and later made meritorious contributions to resist the Western Xia with his handsome position, and was promoted to the Huiyou Pavilion to be systematized. In the early years of Xuanhe, Cai Jing entered the prime minister again, and Liu Tao was angry, and he asked for the promotion of Chongfu Palace, which was approved, and he was appointed as the governor of Yuezhou after leaving Beijing. Fang La made a rebellion, captured Qu and Wu Prefectures, the sound spread over the state, the officials escaped, someone once said that Liu Tao avoided the thief, and said: "I am the county guard, and I should live with the city." "Therefore, do not go, prepare for war. Kou to the city, the thief has meritorious, the official seal of Hebei, Hedong Xuanfu envoy staff officer, Guo Yaoshi came to surrender, migrated to the prefect. Tong Guan and Cai You were defeated, and Liu Tao was afraid that the Liao army would invade the south with victory, so he recruited brave soldiers in Zhending Mansion to resist Liao.

Liu Tao recruited brave warriors, personally selected talents, occasionally met Yue Fei, talked with him very strangely, and tried his bow and horse, martial arts, so he was appointed as the captain of the dare warrior detachment.
