After the victory in the first battle, many of the Red Lotus Sect were half overjoyed, but at this time, they were drinking wine and eating meat in a big bowl outside. Yi Ying talked with Gege in the room, the dragons were leaderless, and the monkeys were dominant. To say that the overlords on the mountain are Qin Ying and Hu Min. As I said before, Qin Ying is Yi Ying's childhood playmate, and the two have a close relationship, and they have always been Yi Ying's eldest and second in the church. Since Hu Min joined the sect leader four years ago, their tacit relationship has been disrupted. Hu Min was wise and resourceful, and most of the leaders of the Jianyì sect proposed were adopted. Especially in the past two years, Hu Min gradually replaced Qin Ying and became one of the best figures in the church.

The congregation is also a trend follower, half of the old-school characters are used to following Qin Ying, while half of the new-style characters are optimistic about Hu Min. Thus, the church was divided into two. Yi Ying took the lead, and there were two major factions below, one headed by Qin Ying and the other headed by Hu Min. Over the years, the Red Lotus Sect has been running around, winning less and losing more, and the relationship between the two can be regarded as harmonious. However, a few days ago, Yi Ying obeyed Hu Min's construction and took 650,000 taels of imperial silver from Hungry Tiger Town, at the junction of Handan and Zhangde. This battle suddenly made the sect members smoke, not to mention the defeat of the cavalry in front of the imperial court in Jiuli Mountain. For a while, he taught many people to be smuggled with half-profits, and became proud, thinking that from now on, how difficult would it be to obtain the world?

It is easy to be poor, but it is difficult to be rich and rich. At this time, the congregation was confused by the temporary victory, and they began to compete with each other. Yi Ying is not in the first place, who should sit first on the table? followed Qin Ying's old-school figure and said, Qin Ying has followed the sect leader since he was a child, and he has worked hard and made great achievements, so he naturally wants to sit in the first place. The new faction who followed Hu Min stopped doing it again, this strategy of outwitting the imperial silver and skillfully annihilating the Qing soldiers was Hu Min's idea, why did Qin Ying take the first place at this time?

Qin Ying and Hu Min didn't speak, but the disciples on both sides were fighting each other. This said that the first place belongs to Qin Jingang. The one who said that the first place should belong to Hu Dafa. When they got to the bustle, they actually started to mess with each other. Your punch and my kick are beautiful.

Yi Ying listened to the noise outside in the room, so she had to say goodbye. He walked out and asked, "What are you doing here?" ”

When the sect leader saw that the sect leader was coming, they stopped the hustle and bustle slightly. Yi Ying looked around at everyone and asked, "What are you guys making trouble about?" ”

Hu Min and Qin Ying couldn't answer, so they just sat sullenly and didn't say a word. Instead, a young and clever disciple approached and said, "Who will sit first in the competition for the disciples?" Will it be under the command of Qin or the commander of Hu? ”

As soon as Yi Ying heard it, she guessed the merits. He stepped forward to the stage, his eyes flashed and said, "Our Red Lotus Sect has survived eighty-eight years since it was established in the tenth year of Shunzhi. The purpose of our sect is to help the world and save people, save lives and help the wounded, how can there be a reason for you to compete for merit and position? Millet seeds. You recite to them the salvation song of our sect. ”

Xiaomizi is the disciple who just replied. He approached, cleared his throat, and read aloud: "Surrounded by dead trees, like walking in a mire." Fireflies fly melancholy, Yudu dam bridge. It is worthy of all sentient beings, and there is more suffering and less joy. The camp is rushing, and the catastrophe is hard to escape. All these things have spared my life! ”

Yi Ying asked: "The salvation song is very clear, the camp is rushing. Why bother? Is it the first place at the table for you to fight for such a point? ”

The disciples didn't answer, but Hu Min was more aware of the current affairs, and when he saw that the matter had reached such a point, he stood up. He clasped his fists at the sect leader and Qin Ying, and said with a smile: "The sect leader has sat on the main seat, and Brother Qin started earlier than the disciples. Naturally, you have to sit in the main seat. ”

After all, Qin Ying was young and frivolous, so he only nodded slightly and said, "Then admit it." "Say it. He sat in the first place.

Yi Ying was also inconvenient to blame, and said again: "Although we won a small victory today. However, the Japanese officers and troops will launch an attack from the front, and we have no choice but to take strict precautions and not let the officers and troops take advantage of them. ”

Hu Min stood up and replied, "In addition to the frontal guards, you also have to be careful about the flanking hills. In case the official military house is seeking the side, we are defenseless, and it will be a bad thing to be caught off guard. ”

Yi Ying nodded and said, "You're right. You want you to say, how can we resist it? ”

Hu Min had already made a plan in his chest, and said: "Since a large number of officers and troops are going to attack from the front, we must also prepare more manpower to resist it. However, Hu Min believes that we occupy a favorable mountainous position, and it will be more difficult for the officers and troops to attack from the front. Hu Min was worried that the official army would be outflanked from both flanks of the mountain. ”

Qin Ying argued: "Commander Hu is a little worried. Why did our sect leader choose Jiuli Mountain in the first place? Just because the terrain of this mountain is dangerous, in addition to the big platform and that place, there are some possibilities that can climb up, other places, there is no way to go, can the officers and soldiers fly in with wings? ”

Hu Min said: "The day before yesterday, Hu Min specially inspected the mountain, and there was a mountain stream about seven or eight zhang deep on the west side of this mountain. There is no bridge over the mountain stream, but if the officers and soldiers set up a floating ladder, pass through the ladder, and go around to the back of Jiuli Mountain to attack us, it will be very bad for us. ”

Qin Ying said with a smile: "Commander Hu is also a little ridiculous. That mountain stream is more than ten zhang wide, seven or eight zhang deep, and the turbulence is rapid, which is what ordinary people can swim over? Unless the officers and soldiers all have wings, they are still about the same. ”

Hu Min hesitated and shut up. Yi Ying thought for a while and said: "People have no long-term concerns, but they must have near-term worries. What Commander Hu said also has some truth, be careful and there is no big mistake, I think it is better to send someone to guard the mountain stream. Commander Hu and Commander Qin, who do you think is appropriate? ”

Qin Ying said angrily: "With that kind of idle work, Qin Ying would rather fight one-on-one with the official army, what is the mountain stream guarding?" ”

Hu Min stepped forward and said, "Commander Qin doesn't want to go, Hu Min is willing to go." If Hu Min can't hold the mountain stream, he would rather die as a martyr. ”

Yi Ying said: "Since Commander Hu is going to guard the mountain stream, the sect leader naturally has nothing to say, but if he can keep it, he can't keep it." Life and death are fateful, and if the sky dies me, it is useless to keep it. ”

Hu Min said: "Why did the sect leader say this! As the saying goes, things are man-made, and the sect leader should not say that frustrating words. ”

Yi Ying smiled and said: "Okay, this sect leader will assign you 200 disciples, and Commander Hu will lead you to take these 200 disciples, only guard the mountain stream, and don't let the official army enter the mountain." ”

Commander Hu ordered that he say yes, and then took 200 sect members to guard the mountain stream. After Hu Min left, Qin Ying also had to fight for merit, so as to show his ability, and said to Yi Ying: "The official army was attacked by us during the day, and I was frightened at this time, and my foothold was not stable, I took two hundred sect members to attack at night, so I naturally got twice the result with half the effort." ”

Yi Ying pondered for a while and said: "I heard that the leader Zhu Baoqiang is the governor of Henan, and this person is also somewhat capable. In case he opens the door to welcome guests and just waits for us to break into the camp in the middle of the night, will you go and throw yourself into the net? ”

Seeing that the sect leader was so despised by himself, Qin Ying was dissatisfied with the boss in his heart, and said indignantly: "What did the sect leader say? Could it be that Qin Ying is really a stupid person? Only Hu Min can do it, but Qin Ying can't do it? ”

Seeing that Qin Ying was so negative, Yi Ying didn't want to stop him again, so he had to give him more instructions and let him be careful. Let Qin Ying go, Yi Ying was very uneasy in her heart, she always felt that this matter was inappropriate, but at this point, she could only make a mistake.

But he said that Zhu Baoqiang under the mountain lost the first battle, and at this time he set up a village behind the mountain, ordered to bury the pot and make rice, and had a good meal. During the meal, Zhu Baoqiang had to say something to boost morale, what damage to a soldier is nothing, as soon as our army arrives, it is bound to annihilate the rebels like a withering and decaying one. The soldiers didn't care a lot, and when they saw that the governor had spoken like this, they listened to it, and still ate and drank happily.

After Zhu Baoqiang finished boosting his morale, Jin Gui quietly walked to the governor's side and said, "My lord, I have something to say about my humble position." ”

After Wulan Bao's martyrdom, Zhu Baoqiang immediately promoted Jin Gui to the position of Qianzong, replaced Wu Lanbao's position, and placed high hopes on him. Listening to what Jin Gui had to say, he was busy asking what was the matter?

Jin Gui said softly: "We lost for a while during the day, and we were afraid that the traitors would rob the camp at night. Why don't we come up with a plan, set up an empty camp, lure the traitors in, and make dumplings in a pot of stew? ”

As soon as Zhu Baoqiang heard this idea, he would not lose anything if he succeeded or not. So, immediately follow Jin Gui's instructions to go down.

Soon, the night to the third watch. The official barracks were quiet, and only a few dozen soldiers dozed off and patrolled the night outside. They said that they were going to watch the night, but they were going to sleep, and they were next to the fire one by one, hanging their heads and falling asleep.

Qin Ying led two hundred sect members and secretly descended the mountain. Da Lao Yuan saw it like this, and he was only happy in his heart, didn't God give Qin Ying a victory in vain? He bore the brunt of the attack and whispered to the congregants behind him, "I see that the guards in the camp are empty, and we just took advantage of the weakness to enter. As the saying goes, if you capture a thief first, you will capture the king, and if we hold Zhu Baoqiang, the officers and soldiers will naturally retreat without a fight. At that time, the sect leader naturally wanted to reward us greatly. ”

What do those people know? Listening to Qin Ying's boasting like this, he was full of hope that a big battle victory was in sight, and everyone was gearing up, and they were going to kill him personally.

Qin Ying was the first to carry a big knife and gently approached the official army camp. The soldier who was about to kill the guard from behind came out of nowhere with a cat meow, and the soldier immediately opened his eyes and said, "Oh no, the thief army is coming to rob the camp!" Listen to the sound as if it is in the direction of the rear camp. With that, he immediately led these soldiers straight to the rear camp, leaving a middle camp empty.

Qin Ying was secretly happy in her heart, whatever she wanted, it was just that it didn't take any effort to get it. At this moment, Qin Ying waved his hand at the back, and all the sect members behind followed, and under his leadership, they rushed into the middle camp.

There was not a single person in the middle camp. Qin Ying was very surprised, where did everyone go? A member of the sect felt bad and said, "Are we in the empty city plan? ”

Qin Ying panicked in her heart, knowing that it was not good, but she couldn't turn around and leave. At this time, there was a shouting outside the door, and someone shouted: "The thieves are inside the camp, and everyone throws torches into it and burns them to death." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, more than a dozen torches were thrown into the camp. The torches burned the curtain in the camp, and in an instant, it burned with a sneer. Some of the sect members were quite smart, and when they saw that the opportunity was wrong, they were about to rush out, but outside the camp, there were three or five rows of officers and soldiers lined up neatly. Rather than a sieve, congregants would rather be burned to charcoal.

After a meal, the congregants burned to death, shot to death, and none of them survived. In the end, Qin Ying saw that he was the only one left by his side, looked up to the sky and sighed, and said, "Sect Master, Qin Ying has failed you!" We can't accompany the sect leader in this life, so let's see you in the next life. After that, he lifted the long sword in his waist, and the long sword slashed and wiped his neck.
