142. The death of Akuta
A month later, Xiao Feng and a hundred leather room cavalry tracked Yan Aguta's whereabouts all the way to Changbai Mountain. At this time, it is almost October, and the area around Changbai Mountain has already entered winter, and the thick snow covers the entire majestic and winding mountain range. Wind and snow pass by, and the natural environment changes rapidly. In this case, it is extremely difficult to save your life, let alone find someone in the mountains.
On this day, Xiao Feng and the others found a bonfire on a mountain road near Crouching Tiger Peak. After fiddling with it a few times, the probe horse smiled and hurriedly announced to Xiao Feng: "King, this fire has not been extinguished for long, they should be nearby!" ”
Xiao Feng has been tracking Yan Aguta for more than a month, and he has almost caught them several times, but in the end, they were all escaped by Wanyan Aguda with the advantage of being familiar with the terrain. Nowadays, although the road is getting more and more deviant, the area around Changbai Mountain is sparsely populated, and it is becoming more and more difficult for Wanyan Aguta to hide his whereabouts. Xiao Feng knew that it was only a matter of time before he caught Wanyan and Agu. Listening to Tanma's report, Xiao Feng immediately nodded and ordered: "Spread around, and report immediately if you find Wanyan's whereabouts!" ”
"Yes!" A hundred leather room cavalry commanded in unison, and after a while, they tacitly formed several squads and dispersed to the depths of the peaks.
Xiao Feng himself also led several leather chambers to search all the way to the depths of the mountain, and after about half an hour, he faintly heard a few sporadic gunshots coming from a col not far away.
"King!" Several of the leather chambers who were following him had apparently heard the gunshots as well, and gathered around him vigilantly.
Xiao Feng looked up at the sky, the sun was three poles, this time was by no means a good time to hunt. Could it be ...... And others? Xiao Feng's complexion changed immediately, and he said in a deep voice: "Catch up!" As soon as he finished speaking, several of the leather chambers immediately shouted and rode forward.
A group of ten people chased a few paths, and soon heard a faint human voice coming from afar.
"Lord Wanyan, the imperial court has high hopes for you, and has given you 8,000 flintlock pistols, 200,000 rounds of ammunition, and countless knives and arrows. But what do you give back to the officials? What do you have to say now? These words were extremely cold and extremely familiar, it was Murong Fu!
Xiao Feng was shocked, and he couldn't care about the leather room of his peers, so he hurriedly picked up the light work, and the whole person rose into the air and ran towards the place where the voice came from. Mo Yue ran out for dozens of zhang, and Xiao Feng saw Murong Fu, who was also in armor and wearing a black mink cloak, riding a high-headed horse, and was coldly watching hundreds of Song soldiers under his command besiege a group of hunters.
These Orions were disguised by Wanyan Aguta and the others. Although the Jurchens said that they were all martial arts, they were defeated and fled, and they were pursued by Xiao Feng all the way to this point, and they were already unbearable. At this time, this group of Jurchens was surrounded by Murong Fu in a mountain col, showing the trend of catching turtles in an urn. The number of these Jurchens was about fifty, with seven or eight flintlock pistols, and the rest were only armed with long knives, bows and arrows, and other cold weapons. What's worse is that most of these 50 people have wounds.
Murong Fu didn't know anything about military affairs, but he obviously didn't need to know anything about military affairs to deal with these remnants of the Song army with hundreds of well-equipped Song army soldiers. I saw those Song soldiers holding flintlock pistols in a fan-shaped formation, and they surrounded and suppressed those Jurchens step by step. After each row of gunshots, several Jurchens fell. Soon, these Jurchens were hit by bullets and could no longer raise their heads, so they had to hide behind the mountains and rocks to survive. Obviously, it would be easy for Murong Fu to wipe out these Jurchens.
"Murong! No! Seeing this, Xiao Feng immediately shouted and pounced towards Murong Fu.
Murong immediately turned his head to look back when he heard the sound. Xiao Feng's martial arts are outstanding, and the words fell, and the person had already rushed to a few steps behind him from a few zhang away. Seeing Xiao Feng menacing, Murong Fu immediately understood Xiao Feng's intention to capture the thief and capture the king first. I saw him look at Xiao Feng and smile lightly, and with a wave of his hand, the Song army's spear team that originally swept towards Wanyan Agu in a fan shape immediately split into two sections, the first half of the fan continued to force Wanyan Aguda, and the second half of the fan quickly formed a phalanx, turning the head of the gun to shoot at Xiao Feng.
Xiao Feng knew the power of the flintlock pistol, so he hurriedly picked up his light skills and jumped backwards. I saw him rise and fall twice in mid-air, and he landed on a mountain rock behind Murong Fu's left, which was able to avoid the three rows of consecutive shots of the Song army in the first round.
After the first round of shooting, Murong Fu made another forbidden gesture. Facts have proved that the Song army is also prohibited. With just one gesture from Murong Fu, the mountain col where the gunshots were constantly roaring immediately became quiet again. Everyone only heard Murong Fu say coldly: "King Xiao, let me remind you below." The Jurchens raised an army to rebel and shake the Khitan Guozuo, and their crimes should be punished by the nine clans! ”
Xiao Feng saw that although Song Jun no longer shot at him, he still pointed his gun at him, and he didn't dare to act rashly for a while. Hearing Murong Fu's words, he immediately replied: "How to deal with Yan Aguda, there is his own Great Liao Majesty in charge, so there is no need for Lord Murong to do it for him." ”
Murong Fu smiled and replied in a slighted tone: "The Great Song Dynasty is commensurate with the Khitan brothers, and the Great Song Dynasty is the elder brother, and it is also the proper meaning to come forward to open his eyes for the younger brother." King Xiao doesn't have to be polite! ”
In terms of eloquence, where is Xiao Feng Murong Fu's opponent? Hearing Murong Fu say this, he immediately choked and couldn't reply.
But it was Wanyan Agu, who was surrounded in the mountain col, who inquired about Murong Fu's words, and immediately shouted loudly: "Wanyan's troops raised troops to resist Da Liao, all because of the Great Song Dynasty's provocation first!" Master Su, Ah Guta regards you as a brother, but you are deliberately deceiving me and using me! Now, you are just afraid that the Khitan Leather Room will find trouble with the Great Song Dynasty, and you want to kill people and destroy your mouth, why do you have to say so righteously and strictly? ”
Song Jun was not polite to Wan Yan Agu, his words fell, and a string of bullets swept over his scalp.
Murong Fu saw that Yan Agu fell to the ground and escaped after being killed, but he was not in a hurry, and only replied leisurely: "This official is indeed planning to make friends with you, but is this fire/gun ammunition forced you to buy by this official?" Did the Jurchen tribe raise troops and force you to do so? Brother Akuta, do you dare to say that you never thought that you would be the only one in the world? The official just gave you a chance, but unfortunately you didn't take it. So, willing to gamble and lose! ”
As soon as Murong Fu finished speaking, dozens of Jurchens who followed Wanyan Aguda scolded loudly, but only Wanyan Aguda himself was speechless. After a long time, he gritted his teeth and said, "Who are you?" ”
"Well said!" I saw Murong Fu lazily clasping his fists on horseback and saluting, and said loudly. "The four products of the Great Song Dynasty gave Murong Fu in the matter, and I have seen Lord Wanyan of the Pingliao Festival!"
As soon as Murong Fu's sentence "Pingliao Festival Envoy" came out, Wanyan felt even more humiliated, and couldn't help but shout loudly: "The Great Song Dynasty court used this fake holy decree to trick me, do you think I don't know?" ”
Murong Fu sneered and replied casually: "Even if you know that it is a false holy decree, aren't you also very happy to receive it?" ”
As soon as Murong Fu's voice fell, a group of Great Song soldiers immediately laughed.
Wanyan couldn't bear Murong Fu's provocation in the end, and roared angrily and jumped out from behind a mountain rock with a flintlock pistol. "Murong Fu, I'll kill you!"
This is the signal that the three parties are waiting for! After listening to Yan Agu's words, fierce gunfire and shouts of killing immediately sounded in the mountain col. Half of the Great Song soldiers were armed with flintlock pistols to encircle and suppress the Jurchens, and the other half of the Great Song soldiers faced the leather room army that arrived at an unknown time.
The horses of the leather room army were fast, they fought at close range, and the Great Song infantry armed with flintlock pistols were not originally superior. Luckily, the trail is narrow enough to accommodate two or three horses at the same time. Therefore, the Great Song soldiers of the last half of the phalanx fought and retreated, but they were able to stabilize the situation.
And with the help of the leather room army that came with him, Xiao Feng finally got rid of the threat of the flintlock pistol. After Yan Ah Gu hit Fang and shouted, he immediately flew towards Murong Fu.
Ten steps!
Six of the Jurchens who were surrounded and suppressed were shot and fell down one after another.
Seven steps!
The Jurchens' feathered arrows knocked over the three Great Song soldiers who were approaching step by step, and a powerful long arrow grazed Murong Fu's cheek and drove it into the mountain wall behind him.
Five steps!
Murong Fuce immediately stepped forward and leaned over to pick up the longbow and feathered arrows on the side of a Jurchen corpse.
Three steps!
Murong Fu took the bow and led the arrow, pointing at Wanyan Aguda. Xiao Feng saw that it was clear, and immediately transported his strength to his right palm, and roared: "Murong, be merciful!" ”
As far as Xiao Feng could reach, all the plants and trees withered, but Murong Fu turned a deaf ear to the impending danger. I saw him pull the bowstring without squinting like hugging the full moon, and at this moment, the momentum of his whole person was instantly clear, as if he had become a mighty and invincible general from a weak scholar who was powerless.
One-step!
The bowstring "buzzed" clearly, and the feather arrow immediately left the string. The long arrow was like a white rainbow piercing the sun, and it instantly knocked Wanyan Agu to the ground.
Xiao Feng's right palm was deflected, and he only heard a "boom", and a mountain stone standing beside Murong Fu was instantly shattered by the majestic palm power. And the Wanyan Agu fight opposite them was an arrow in the heart, and he died on the spot.
After Yan Agu was killed, the leather room army no longer had the will to fight, and immediately stopped and looked at Xiao Feng helplessly. However, it was the Great Song Dynasty soldiers who saw Yan Agu ambushing him, and they were in good spirits, and soon shot the remaining dozen Jurchens one by one.
After a while, silence returned to the col, a deathly silence.
What was it like to shoot Yan Aguda before the Jin Renxing troops went south? Murong Fu raised his head and sighed softly, feeling nothing. If he could, Murong Fu hoped to send this feather arrow into the hearts of Genghis Khan, Nu/Erhachi, Tojo Hideki and others one by one. And compared with these big bulls behind, it is really not a good thing to fight with a good face. So, there is no feeling. He has only achieved a set goal, and there is still a long way to go.
I saw Murong Fu jump off the horse and find a roll of yellow silk holy decree from the corpse of Wanyan Agu. He glanced down at the contents of the decree, sneered, and then folded his hands together, crumpling the false decree into pieces and carrying them away in the wind. Then, he picked up the long knife beside Wan Yan Aguda, cut off the head of Wan Yan Aguda and threw it at Xiao Feng. "King Xiao, you can go back and report to Emperor Daliao."
Xiao Feng didn't answer, and let the head of Wanyan Agu's beating fall at his feet. He only looked at Murong Fu in disbelief and said slowly, "Why...... Do you have to kill Yan Agu? "Murong Fu's back was exposed, if he hadn't led his palm power to the side in time, Murong Fu would have no luck. From the beginning of the sneak attack on the Liao army to burn the tribute and blame the Wanyan Ministry, Murong Fu introduced the Wanyan Bu into the Yanzhong step by step, instigated the Jurchens to rebel, cut off the Jurchen tribe with the hands of the Khitan, and finally even shot Wanyan Agu in disregard of his own safety. Xiao Feng really didn't understand why Murong Fu would have such a deep hatred with Wanyan Agu.
Xiao Feng asked this, and Murong Fu immediately raised his eyebrows. After a while, he asked softly, "Why did King Xiao have to save his life?" ”
Xiao Feng didn't answer at first, but after a long time, he asked in a low voice, "Who's next?" Murwei? The Murwei people are numerous. Enemy Martyrs? The enemy martyrs were stationed closer to Shangjing. Or, Mongols? The Mongols are more barbaric than the Jurchens......"
Murong Fu stared at Xiao Feng silently for a long time, his gaze gradually sank, as if the night sky was gradually darkening, and it was no longer fathomable. "Driving the tiger and devouring the wolf? Thank you King Xiao for your advice! King Xiao fought beautifully in the battle of Huanglong Mansion. I should thank you, if it weren't for your use of soldiers like a god, I'm afraid it would take a lot of effort to kill Yan Agu. It's just that King Xiao has ever thought about his current situation......"
Unexpectedly, this time, without waiting for Murong Fu to finish speaking, Xiao Feng had already said clearly: "I took the leather room army as the vanguard, and resisted the Jurchens' fire/guns before the servant army. Although it has made great achievements, it has broken the rules. Now, if any of my children die under my command, the officials of Daliao are afraid that they will hate me to the bone! ”
As soon as Xiao Feng said this, Murong Fu's eyes immediately lit up, and he smiled at the moment: "Congratulations, big brother, you have finally started to understand!" Have you ever wondered how to deal with it? ”
"No matter how I deal with it, it won't affect your overall situation, will it?" Xiao Feng asked softly.
Murong Fu looked directly at Xiao Feng for a long time, and finally replied categorically: "Yes!" ”
This answer was already expected by Xiao Feng, he vaguely hooked the corners of his mouth as if he wanted to laugh, but before the smile reached the bottom of his eyes, it turned into a touch of self-deprecation. "What will happen in the future? Murong, what is the overall situation in your heart? ”
"In the future, of course, it will only get better and better. Maybe my eldest brother doesn't agree, but there's nothing I can do about it. Murong Fu casually pulled the reins and turned over on his horse. Murong Fu is not an extreme Han nationalist, not to mention that his body is still of the Xianbei tribe. However, when history has repeatedly proved that every foreign invasion will only drag the brilliant Chinese civilization into the abyss in the end, without any beneficial contribution to the whole of China. In addition to firmly defending the relatively excellent Han civilization, Murong Fu seems to be unable to find a better position.
"Is this leaving?" Xiao Feng suddenly followed and grabbed the reins. I saw him staring at Murong Fu tightly, and a scorching light suddenly burst out from the bottom of his eyes. "Murong, I've always wanted to ask you. Shomuro Yamashita, are you telling the truth? ”
Murong Fu never dreamed that Xiao Feng would actually ask about this! Facing Xiao Feng's eager gaze, Murong Fu only felt his heart tighten, and the past events that had gradually fallen silent in his heart came back like a fleeting light. He opened his mouth in vain, as if trying to explain, but in the end it was still a sigh. "What does Big Brother want to hear from me? …… No matter what I say, Big Brother will be suspicious, won't he? Trust is long gone, and Murong Fu can no longer give an answer. If Xiao Feng wanted to know the truth, he could only find it himself.
Murong Fu rode his horse to leave, but Xiao Feng was obviously unwilling to let him go, so he only grabbed the reins tightly and shouted again: "Murong!" ”
"Big brother, Xixia is dead." But Murong Fu no longer looked at him. His bearing was still as condensed as water, but his majesty was as heavy as a mountain. "I still have a lot of work to do, I want to ...... The same is true of the king of the Southern Courtyard of Daliao. ”
Western Xia is dead! Murong Fu's voice was cold and peaceful, he didn't even laugh, but Xiao Feng really felt the weight of the shaking of the earth from this understatement. It was like a thunderbolt falling on Xiao Feng's heart on a sunny day, almost teaching him to stand unsteadily. Xiao Feng knew that from now on, the whole world would tremble under his feet!
I don't know how long it took, Xiao Feng suddenly woke up, and said in a low voice: "Congratulations!" Your plan for revival is one step closer! As soon as Xiao Feng's voice fell, he glared at Murong Fu tightly.
Murong Fu only looked at the sky indifferently, and replied coldly for a while: "Thank you!" ”
As soon as Murong Fu said this, Xiao Feng's five fingers immediately loosened. And Murong Fu didn't hesitate anymore, and rode away immediately.
Seeing that Murong Fu was about to leave here, Xiao Feng suddenly shouted again. "Murong, Ah Zhu is dead!"
Murong Fu's body stiffened, and he slowly turned his head to look at Xiao Feng.
Xiao Feng also looked at him deeply, and repeated word by word: "Ah Zhu is dead, dead under the flintlock pistol." ”
I saw Murong Fu's Adam's apple rolling up and down twice, and finally slowly squeezed out a sentence: "King Xiao, mourn!" With that, he snapped and rode away.
