…

The mountains are sanitation, the birds are flying, and the pines and forests are lush.

Twelve horses, six people, two lines of geese, a "Zhao'an" banner, Cai is still a little bit "the wind is sluggish, easy to be cold, the strong man is gone, and he will not return." ".

But Cai still did not regard this trip as the end of his life, but as an experience on his path to the emperor.

While walking, Cai still said to Yue Fei and others, who were traveling with him: "The victory or defeat on the battlefield mainly depends on the combat effectiveness of the army and the command ability of the generals, not on the courage of the main general. "The Art of War" says that a general must possess the five basic qualities of wisdom, trustworthiness, benevolence, courage, and strictness, among which there are no requirements such as "great strength" and "ability to fight". Bai Qi may not be strong in martial arts, and he can also "exhaust the 400,000 Zhao army". Han Xin was cowardly in private fights and was willing to suffer the humiliation of his crotch, but in the future, he helped Liu Bang to conquer the world of the Han family. As for Wei Qing, Zhou Yu, and Li Jing, they are not brave and ruthless people, but they do not live up to the reputation of ancient famous generals. I hope that a few of you can one day become famous generals like Bai Qi, Han Xin, and Wei Qing. ”

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention.

When Yan Qing, Zhang Jun, and Yang Yizhong heard that Cai still hoped that they would become famous generals like Bai Qi, Han Xin, and Wei Qing, they all thought together: "If we become famous generals like Bai Qi, Han Xin, and Wei Qing, what will the generals become?" ”

Just when Yan Qing and the others wanted to think about it, a copper bell suddenly rang in the woods in front of them, and then fourteen or fifteen soldiers from the bush road ran out.

Seeing this, Yan Qing stepped forward and said, "I am Yan Qing, and I specially invite General Cai Yi of the Jinwu Army to recruit An, you wait to report as soon as possible." ”

Yan Qingnai was one of the thirty-six leaders of the Song Jiang Righteous Army, and he usually liked to interact with people, so almost everyone in the Song Jiang Righteous Army knew him.

Therefore, seeing Yan Qing standing up and speaking, those soldiers who were ready to capture Cai Ying and the others first immediately stopped moving forward and didn't know what to do.

Yan Qing said again: "You can't decide this matter, go and play Brother Song Jiang quickly, he has his own opinions." ”

As soon as the soldiers thought about it, they immediately sent someone back to report it.

After about an hour, a man dressed as an outsider came down the mountain with a hundred and ten people.

The person was still a long distance away from Cai Ying and the others, and Yan Qing whispered to Cai Ying: "The person who came is Chai Jin, nicknamed "Little Whirlwind", according to himself, he is a descendant of the Chai clan of the Later Zhou royal family, and he is generally responsible for ushering in and sending him, and his martial arts are generally ......."

As he spoke, Chai Jin came to the front of everyone.

Chai Jin clenched his fists and arched his hand: "I don't know that General Cai has arrived, I missed the distance, forgive my sins!" ”

Cai still smiled and saluted: "I heard Yan Qing say that Your Excellency is a member of the Later Zhou royal family, and it is disrespectful!" ”

Chai Jin waved his hand and said: "What's the use of mentioning the old past, the Zhao family deceived my Chai orphans and widows, and took away my Chai family's country, this hatred is not shared." ”

Cai still said in his heart: "Knowing that I am here to recruit An, and telling me that he and the Zhao family do not share the same day, it seems that this security is not easy to recruit, so you can't use the conventional method of recruiting An." ”

Cai still smiled and said: "Everything is up to the sky, and the children and grandchildren are far away." Drink three glasses of wine and rest the mess, and you can collect it in a smooth sail. When will life be done, and when will it be good to harm everyone? It is better to settle the grievances than to settle them, and each of them looks back. ”

When Chai Jin heard this, he said secretly: "I heard that Cai is still the fourth in Jinke, and now it seems that the rumors are true, and he has actually turned it into a poem, amazing!" Terrible! ”

Immediately, Chai Jin was a little puzzled: "Cai still has such a literary talent, why is a good civil official and a good man inappropriate, but he wants to be with Qiu Ba and be an enemy of us?" ”

Chai Jin is not a strong person in the end, after being impressed by Cai Zhen's poems, he did not continue to be aggressive, nor did he continue to hint at Cai Zhen: "The enmity between you and us is like the sea, and we do not share the sky." Instead, he began to talk to Yan Qing about what happened after Yan Qing surrendered.

Yan Qing also casually asked about Chai Jin's side.

Chai Jin didn't stop talking, but chose some irrelevant things to talk to Yan Qing.

It can be seen that Yan Qing and Chai Jin have a good relationship, at least Chai Jin did not ignore Yan Qing because of Yan Qing's surrender.

Under the leadership of Chai Jin, Cai Yi and his party passed through layers of checkpoints and came to Wuma Mountain.

Legend has it that Liu Xiu was chased and killed by Wang Mang and was desperate, and was rescued by relying on five white horses that came out of this mountain, and then the five horses turned into five stone horses, which is the origin of the name of Wuma Mountain.

There is also a legend that once upon a time there were five stone horses on this mountain, and they turned into real horses at night and went down the mountain to steal wheat seedlings from the fields, and when they were discovered, they broke the head of a stone horse.

As soon as they entered Chaotianzhai on the top of the mountain, Cai Yi and the others saw two columns of Song Jiangyi soldiers armed with knives and axes standing on both sides of the road in front of the door.

Yan Qing asked Chai Jin for Cai Ying: "What does this mean?" ”

Chai Jin didn't talk to Yan Qing again, but said directly to Cai Ying: "General Cai needs to walk through this sword and axe forest to enter the cottage. ”

As soon as Chai Jin's words fell, the soldiers of the Song Jiang Righteous Army raised the swords and axes in their hands at the same time, and aimed the tip of the axe at the middle of the road.

Seeing this, Yan Qing argued with Chai Jin: "Isn't this the way of hospitality, don't lose your only chance to live!" ”

Chai Jin was a little surprised, he didn't expect Yan Qing to surrender so completely, before that he thought that Yan Qing was in the camp.

Chai Jin usually has a very good relationship with Yan Qing, and knows that Yan Qing is humble on the surface, but she is actually very proud in her bones, and she is not easily convinced.

And from Yan Qing's respectful performance towards Cai along the way, especially now that he has stepped forward to fight for Cai Ying, Chai Jin can see that Yan Qing is really impressed by Cai Ying.

Chai Jin couldn't help but look at Cai Yi, who had killed and captured half of their men and horses, and looked at Cai Yiwen, and said in his heart: "What kind of charm does this person have, can he convince Yan Qing?" ”

Such a bridge as the knife and axe forest can be said to have been rotten in the TV series of later generations, Cai still really didn't expect that he would be able to encounter it today.

Before coming, Cai still had already thought about it, life and death were downbeat, and if he didn't accept it, he would do it, and when the time came, if he really couldn't talk about it, he could also cause a lot of damage to the Song Jiang Righteous Army with his martial arts skills, Yang Zaixing, Yue Fei, Zhang Jun, and Yang Yizhong, at least the three or two hundred Song Jiang Righteous Army's sword and axe hands in front of him may not be enough.

Therefore, Cai still stretched out his hand to stop Yan Qing and said, "Guests are as they please, since the host wants to see our guts, let's let them take a look." ”

After speaking, Cai still took the lead in the sword and axe forest.

Yang Zaixing, Yue Fei, Zhang Jun, and Yang Yizhong only followed Cai Yi into the sword and axe forest.

Yan Qing sighed and kept up with Cai Ying and the others.

As soon as Cai Ying and the others entered the knife and axe forest, the knives and axes on their heads began to shake up and down, and some of them were so large that they were about to fall on the heads of Cai Yi and the others, and they deliberately knocked the knives and axes into a "clanging" sound!

Because of the confidence of the three or two hundred sword and axe men of the enemy, Cai still behaved very calmly.

Yang Zaixing, Yue Fei, and Yang Yizhong are all bold people, although Zhang Jun and Yan Qing are a little worse, they are also scheming people, not to mention that they are not cowards.

Therefore, Song Jiang's righteous army put on a knife and axe, and it did not scare Cai Yi and his party at all.

Chai Jin saw it, and said in his heart: "There are no vain soldiers under the fame, this Jinwu army is really worthy of destroying half of our strong army!" ”

The crowd walked forward for a while, and suddenly a man with a bow and arrow in his hand blocked their way.

Yan Qing looked at the man and whispered to Cai Ying: "This person is the general's uncle Xiao Li Guanghuarong, he is a strong martial artist and a master of archery, and he is one of the most proficient among them. ”

When Cai still heard this, he asked, "He is Baoyan's brother?" ”

Yan Qing said: "Exactly." ”

At this moment, Hua Rong said: "General Cai captured and killed tens of thousands of my brothers, he must be very capable, I want to compete with General Cai in archery, I don't know if General Cai dares to fight?" ”

As soon as Hua Rong's words came out, Yue Fei and Yang Yizhong, who were superb in archery, were going to replace Cai Ying.

But Yue Fei and Yang Yizhong were not as fast as Zhang Jun, Zhang Jun took the first step and said: "Use a knife to kill Ji Yan, let the young general meet him for a while." ”

Seeing that Zhang Jun was so good at seizing the opportunity to express himself, Cai still said in his heart: "There is no luck in success." ”

For the sake of the above, treat your cronies with one mind, and remember that it is unfair, at least not too obvious.

Therefore, since he was robbed by Zhang Jun, Cai still could only say: "Xu Sheng is not allowed to lose." ”

Zhang Jun responded: "No! ”

Zhang Jun took the strong bow he had been carrying in his hand to meet Hua Rong, and said: "Soldier to soldier, general to general, if the leader of your Song Jiang family wants to compete with my general, there is naturally no problem, you, let me Zhang Jun play with you first." ”

While speaking, Zhang Jun opened his bow and set up an arrow, and shot down a bird that flew by with one arrow.

As soon as the connoisseur makes a move, he will know if there is one.

Just based on Zhang Jun's casual shot just now, Hua Rong had already judged that Zhang Jun was a master of using arrows.

Zhang Jun was also very satisfied with his own arrow just now, and he said confidently: "I don't know how Your Excellency wants to compare?" ”

Hua Rongxin said: "My brother and the military advisor explained that they should destroy their prestige, and they can't do too much, so it's just right to compare arrows with this person." ”

Thinking of this, Hua Rong said: "You and I are riding on horses and shooting each other, and whoever shoots the other wins, how about it?" ”

When Zhang Jun heard this, his heart sank, and he said in his heart: "This kid is going to gamble with his life!" ”

Fortunately!

At this time, Cai still spoke.

Cai still said: "We are here to recruit An, not to fill in the new hatred, Bo Ying, you will go with the arrow, and take the life of the flower leader." ”

When Zhang Jun heard this, he immediately pulled out his matching knife and cut off the arrows of the arrows he brought one by one.

Cai is still like this, on the one hand, as he said, he doesn't want to make trouble because Zhang Jun shot Hua Rong, on the other hand, Hua Rong is his cheap brother-in-law after all, if he really asks Zhang Jun to kill Hua Rong, then it is not easy for him to explain to Hua Baoyan, in case Hua Baoyan, who is already pregnant, has fetal gas, it will be even more worth the loss.

Hua Rong saw that Zhang Jun had cut off all his own arrowheads, and he didn't want to take advantage of Zhang Jun, so he also asked someone to bring a pot of arrows without arrows.

The two sides are ready, each mounts their horses, and then fights the horses and runs to a certain distance, and then the two sides are very tacitly at the same time turn the horse's head and run parallelly, and each begins to shoot each other with bows and arrows......
