Chapter 025: Change

"Cowardly as a mouse, a sour Confucian who is incorruptible and shameless!"

Folded Tiger withdrew his bow and arrows and spat the ground.

Zheyuexiu's face remained unchanged, she went ashore, stepped on the war horse, and said loudly: "Zhehu, it's useless to talk more." Hurry up and get up, the strongman will come right over! ”

Fan Gyu's boat rowed into the middle of the river, and Fan Gyu came out again, standing at the bow of the boat, poking his fingers and roaring, and he didn't know what foul language was saying.

"Fold the little lady, it's a good thing you didn't marry such a filthy sour Confucian. Otherwise, your life will be ruined!"

Zhehu shook his head, turned around and got on the war horse, and followed behind Zheyuexiu, who had already fought forward.

Everyone got up the official road together and looked towards the ferry in the distance.

The strongman plundered at the ferry, found the figure of Zheyuexiu and others, brandished knives and guns, shouted wildly, and came towards the official road.

"Fold the little lady, this is the subordinate of the strongman Shi Bin. This person used to be a thief in Liangshan, but later rebelled, and was finally exterminated by Lao Linggong. Unexpectedly, the remnants of Liangshan are now coming out to do evil again. ”

Zhehu is well-informed, runs on the rivers and lakes all the year round, and Shaanxi and the three states outside the river are adjacent to each other, so he knows a lot of things.

In the first year of Xuanhe (1119 AD), the Song court forcibly ordered Liangshanbo to be taken under "public ownership", and the people who lived by fishing and harvesting lotus root must pay taxes by boat. In November of that year, Song Jiang and others rose up and planted the banner of resistance on Liangshan.

Because the Song army had not fought for a long time, lacked training, and had extremely poor combat effectiveness, Song Jiang and his subordinate 36 people, strong and brave, brave and good at fighting, expanded the scope of activities from Shandong to all parts of Hebei, hundreds of miles longitudinal and horizontal, as if entering a no-man's land.

When the Songjiang rebel army moved to the Huanghuai Plain, in the second year of Xuanhe (1120), Fang La, the leader of the peasant uprising in Zhejiang, also led the righteous army to break through several states in a row, and the offensive was fierce, so that the decaying Northern Song Dynasty was in a panic.

In the third year of Xuanhe (1121), Zhao Ji issued an edict to Zhang Shuye, who was appointed as the governor of Haizhou by Huiyou Pavilion, and ordered him to try to recruit Song Jiang and others.

After the two sides started the war, in the face of several times the number of officers and soldiers themselves, in the face of heavy encirclement, the ships were destroyed, and the retreat route was broken, Song Jiang and others surrendered to Zhang Shuye and accepted Zhao'an.

After Song Jiang accepted the "Zhao'an", the Northern Song Dynasty court granted official positions to the generals of the rebel army. "Xuanhe's Legacy" contains: "Thirty-six people from Song Jiang returned to the Song Dynasty, and each was ordered by the martial arts doctor to be stationed in Zhulu to inspect and inspect them. ”

In the fourth year of Xuanhe (1122), Song Jiang rebelled again, but was suppressed by Song General Zhe Kecun, that is, Zhe Yuexiu's father, and Song Jiang and others were killed.

Shi Bin is one of the 36 cadres under Song Jiang, after being recruited by the Song Dynasty, he was transferred to Shaanxi, with the invasion of the Jin soldiers, seeing the chaos in the world, the thieves peaked, he also wanted to come out and get a piece of the pie.

And Dong Ping, one of the "three heroes" under Wang Song, was also a member of Liangshan's fierce generals, but he died in Fuzhou.

"These thieves of straight mothers, Uncle Zhang shouldn't have recruited these thieves in Liangshan in the first place. Although Lao Linggong wiped out most of them, he still left troubles. ”

Lao Yang said hatefully: "Fanzi invaded my Great Song Dynasty, and this Shi Bin also followed the disaster in Shaanxi, and he was ashamed to speak up, claiming to be the Son of Heaven." This Liangshan thief is really dead. If Wang Song doesn't die, he should clean up these thieves who can't change from eating!"

Everyone went all the way south, thinking that the Jurchens had retreated, but they thought that Shaanxi was still full of bandits. The northern captives retreated, bandits were rampant, and the originally good trip was interrupted again.

Zhi Yuexiu was silent, and Zhi Hu said cautiously: "Folded little lady, the villain was angry just now, and said a few words that should not be said, offended Fan Xiaoguan, and caused trouble for you, don't go to your heart."

Zheyuexiu smiled lightly, shook her head and said, "Sichuan, we can't go." Fan Xiaoguan and you and I are not all the way, we can't afford such people. I'm not going to explain to anyone that this has nothing to do with you. ”

Speaking of this, Zheyuexiu's heart was inexplicably relaxed. In the future, you can open the sea and the sky, unrestrained, in this life, or the old spring forest, or the green lantern ancient Buddha, and no longer need these mundane things in the world.

Zhehu and Lao Yang, these guards, are all her family members, although they all belong to the Zhe family, but Zhe Kecun has always lived in the Lan Army. If it weren't for the occupation of the Kelan army by the Jin people, it would be impossible for Zheyuexiu's family to return to Fuzhou, where it could only be regarded as a host.

Zhehu was secretly frightened. Zheyuexiu is like this, obviously tearing his face with Zhe Keqiu and parting ways.

Lao Yang said indignantly: "Fan Gui, this guy actually gave up the little lady to run for her life alone, she is really greedy for life and afraid of death!" The next time I run into this guy, I will beat his wife and can't let him come!"

Seeing that Zhi Yuexiu smiled, she was not embarrassed, and Zhi Hu also laughed and said: "If you have the opportunity, give me a few beatings to get out of the stuffiness in your chest." These big turbans, in addition to pretending to be ghosts on weekdays, are full of bad water in their stomachs!"

Zhiyue Xiu raised the horse whip in her hand and whispered: "Brothers, don't be careless, the other party's cavalry has arrived."

On the ferry, some of the bandits saw the ferry boat in the distance, scolded loudly, and began to collect the baggage on the ground, but they didn't pay attention to Zhiyuexiu and others on the official road.

On the official road, two or three hundred knights took the lead, raising smoke and dust all the way, and five or six hundred foot soldiers followed closely, fierce and vicious, and came to Zheyuexiu and the others together.

Smoke billowed and the ground shook, and the knights formed a semicircle. The knight on the horse had a hideous face, people and horses covered in blood, and his mouth was screaming strangely, and he didn't know how many innocent people had been slaughtered just now.

The thieves split into three sides and pressed towards Orizuki and the others. These people were immediately full of baggage, large and small, and some of the thieves were immediately tied up with young women, and they were clearly dressed as beasts.

The knights on the horses came across the country, and the men who were in front rode forward, their eyes full of lust and cruelty.

He looked at the graceful figure and black scarf masked Zhiyue Xiu on the horse in front of him, and said with a cruel smile: "Brothers, don't use bows and arrows to capture the little lady in black in front of me alive, the eldest brother has a heavy reward!"

The thieves chased after them, wielding knives and guns, screaming and screaming.

Seeing that the bandits were overwhelming, Zhehu said loudly: "Folded little lady, our brothers rushed to the east together and caught them off guard!" You leave first. If it is dispersed, we will see you at the Tongguan ferry, and we can take a boat back. ”

Zheyuexiu nodded, and said in a low voice: "When you rush later, throw away the silk, silver, gold and silver utensils on the horse, so that everyone can be sure to escape."

Lao Yang was taken aback, and blurted out: "Fold the little lady, that's your dowry, but there are four or five thousand yuan." That's not going to work!"

Zhi Yuexiu frowned, and scolded sharply: "When is it, is it the lives of the brothers that matter, or these Raush things." If there is any further delay, the brothers will have to give an account here. Don't go yet!"

Everyone was hot in their hearts, and they bowed together on the horse: "Thank you for folding the little lady!"

The thieves went forward for thirty or forty paces, but they saw the woman and the knight on the opposite side turn their horses' heads together and go together to the east of the official road.

The thief's popular scolding followed closely. The thieves in the east saw Zheyuexiu and others coming, and they also came on horseback.

Zheyuexiu and others had a long bow in their hands, and they opened their bows and arrows. Zhehu shouted: "Shoot", and everyone shot out the feather arrows in their hands.

The children of the folded family have been beaten on horseback since they were children, and everyone is skilled in bowing and horses, and archery is even more probing. Everyone shot arrows with bows and arrows, and without waiting to see the results of the battle, the second and third arrows were already shot out in succession.

The thieves in the east screamed and fell down, but the people of Shaanxi were fierce, and the thieves were also quite strong, many of them fell to the ground, but the rest of the foot knights did not care, but they kept shooting the feather arrows in their hands.

"Poof! Poof!"

The feathered arrows galloped, and the first few guards dismounted, and the men and horses were shot into hedgehogs. As the thief's feather arrows continued to shoot, five or six more knights dismounted, and the thieves behind caught up in an instant, and the knights who were injured and fell to the ground were soon bloody and miserable.

Fortunately, there were not many archers of the thieves, so Zhiyuexiu and the others lay on horseback, braved the rain of arrows, and rushed into the opponent's cavalry formation, and the two sides began to collide fiercely with each other, sacrificing their lives to fight.

The bandit leader chasing after him shouted viciously: "Brothers, catch up and kill this group of dogs!"

Zhehu slashed down the two thieves, and when he saw the other party's foot soldiers surrounding him, he swung his knife and slashed, the belt broke, and the wooden boxes on both sides of the horse's body fell to the ground and shattered.

Countless silk and silver treasures fell out of the chest, and scattered with the kicks of the men and horses, and they were everywhere.

Countless rebel foot soldiers screamed and pounced, pushing and shoving, punching and kicking, scrambling to grab property, and the whole official road was in chaos.

Most of the bandits were from the poor people of the northwest, and they had seen so many heart-pounding and salivating treasures there, and they desperately snatched them one by one, completely ignoring the shouts of their own generals.

The bandits are related to each other, and Zhiyuexiu and others are not strong enemies of life and death, so no one dares to kill their comrades who block the way. The thief knight was hindered by his own footmen, so he could only bypass the official road and chase forward from the field.

Although Zhehu and the others broke out of the encirclement, they also suffered heavy casualties, and there were only a few people left.

The thief knight was annoyed and angry, and the feather arrows whistled out, heading straight for Zheyuexiu and the others, and the arrows flew like locusts for a while. The thieves drew their bows and arrows, aimed at Orizuki Xiu and her warhorse, and roared out.

Zheyuexiu's horse suffered several arrows in a row, and the last one hit the horse's buttocks, and the long arrow went straight into the foot.

The war horse suffered from the pain, could no longer bear it, and with a sad roar, he ran out of the official road, rushed out of the river embankment, and rolled down.

Zheyuexiu was thrown out and fell straight into the rolling Wei River, the waves rolled, and she was also carried forward by the river.

Zhehu and the others were frightened, and came to the bank of the Wei River together, and everyone wanted to go to the river to take a closer look, but the thieves and chasers behind them rushed up again.

Everyone looked at the river that was going away, and there was still the shadow of the Folding Moon Show. Everyone shook their heads and sighed, beat their horses gloomily, and galloped forward.

At the moment when she was swept up by the river, Zhiyuexiu's heart quieted down. Maybe this is her fate, and there is no escape.

Now, she can finally follow the man without hesitation.

However, when her hand touched the plank, a survival instinct drove her to cling to it.

The river was cold and biting, and just when she was about to lose it, she was washed to the shore by the river.

She came ashore exhausted, rested for a while, and just wanted to get up to see what this place was, when two steel knives rested on her neck.

"Don't move, or you'll die!"

She was covered in mud and dirty, and no one could see that this was a charming woman.

The other took a closer look and shouted.

"The big boss caught a person, it doesn't seem to be a fine work of the government, it's a woman!"

Zhi Yuexiu couldn't help but "chuckle" in her heart, and her heart sank.

Unexpectedly, just out of the tiger's mouth, into the wolf's den.
