Volume 2 The Wind and Clouds Between the Rivers Chapter 188 The Ambition of the Mountain

The Rebellion of the Money? The matter of the Song Dynasty, Lingnan? The people who sat next were all northerners, and no one knew the details of the Golden Rebellion.

"Isn't there a Song Army outside the door? May I ask? Chi Qiu suggested.

"It's not proper, this matter is out of reach, and there is no need to renew the branches." Brother Cai said.

The Ecstasy Scholar said that the goal of the Knights of the Hidden Mountain was to kill Jincha, and the goal of the forces behind it was the Yanhu bureaucracy, so it was better not to let the Song people intervene in this matter, the little county lord thought about it, and guessed Brother Cai's concerns, and also felt that it was better not to let the Song people know.

Chi Qiu was unwilling, he just wanted to understand the general trend of the world, the last time I heard the old monk Tongyu say that it was the Fusang Kingdom established by the Japanese in Lingnan, and what is the South China Sea Alliance, what the hell are they? Chi Qiu's curiosity suddenly aroused, and it seemed more interesting for Chi Qiu to understand the whole picture of the world compared to what purpose these cases were hiding.

"I'll ask!" Chi Qiu became interested: "Don't worry, I'm just chatting and asking, as for the matter of the bounty order, it has nothing to do with the Song people, I won't mention it." ”

Ding Feiyan saw that he was leaving, and was about to say that he was troublesome.

Brother Cai said: "Let him ask, there are still two girls left in the Chen family, maybe there are any distant relatives in Lusong, and they have to ask someone to help find them." After speaking, he said to Chi Qiu: "Don't make extraneous branches." ”

The leader of this Song Army is a well-born, with a sword eyebrow, full of heroism, although he is a little smaller than the northerners, but his perennial military career, the momentum is still terrifying.

Chi Qiu had just cleaned up the body with him, and he had already known him, and he knew that his name was Li Dan, so he asked, "Brother Li, ask you something?" ”

Li Dan stood straight and replied, "What's the matter?" ”

"Do you know about the Rebellion?" After speaking, he saw that Li Dan's expression was different, and he said softly: "What, it's inconvenient to say?" ”

"Why do you suddenly ask about this?" Li Dan's voice was cold, as if he had been quenched with cold.

Is it still a secret matter of the Song Dynasty? Chi Qiu became more and more curious: "Oh, it's nothing, it's just that the owner of this Zhuangzi was killed, and there are only two girls left in the village, and everyone doesn't know much about them, but they know that they moved from Lingnan, so they want to help inquire." ”

"Something to do with the Rebellion?" Li Dan was still a little guarded.

"Whether it is involved or not, even if it is involved, it is an adult matter, what does it have to do with the two girls." Chi Qiu sighed, why is it so complicated to ask a gossip?

Li Dan thought about it, and his eyes narrowed slightly: "The Lujin Rebellion has been a matter of more than ten or twenty years. ”

Chi Qiu couldn't help but want to scold, twenty years of gossip, you are cautious, seeing that Li Dan had spoken, he suppressed his dissatisfaction and listened attentively.

It turned out that Nansong and the Fusang country built by the Japanese people lasted for more than 100 years, and it was through the establishment of military towns in the border area step by step to continuously encroach on the Fusang country, and through the migration of displaced people and criminals to enrich the frontier, gradually pushed south, first built Fuzhou Prefecture, and then built Jianzhou Prefecture, and only after defeating most of the princes of Fusang State did Fujian Province be established in that area.

Fuzhou Prefecture was established early, most of the military towns were gradually dismantled, the former military households gradually became the people, and the border army led by them gradually became the main force to exterminate the remnants of Fusang, also known as the town army.

The establishment of the state government is late, the military town system still exists, the newly built border town is gradually stronger because of the Song Dynasty, there are fewer displaced people, more exiles are thieves, thieves, and criminal ministers, and they are called border people, and many generals in charge of the border army are either from the military households of the former Fuzhou Prefecture, they have long been out of the country by virtue of their military merits, or they are the Fusang princes who surrendered, in the process of advancing, there are fewer and fewer Fusang princes who do not obey, these town army generals are holding Kou self-respect, and even raising Kou self-respect, Jianzhou hinterland mountainous area, It took a long time to completely remove the poison of Fusang, especially since there were still many Japanese manors and princes around the city.

In the seventh year of Jianchun, the Jin people were infighting, and the Jianmin Governor's Mansion took advantage of the chaos to encircle and suppress, almost pacified, and did not want to Song Dynasty This side is also chaotic, although the Jianmin Governor Xi Jiannuo marched and fought first-class, but the army was tyrannical, and it was so luxurious, and he drove the local soldiers and civilians into the mountains to collect big wood to build their own mansions at will, and the border people were miserable, defected, and hid in the mountains and forests of countless people. In addition, he refused to negotiate peace with the city of Lujin, in order to prolong the war, and eventually caused the border army to rebel, so that the encirclement and suppression fell short, in order to cover up his own scandal, this incident is still called the Lujin Rebellion.

Of course, what Li Dan said was an understatement, Chi Qiu was well-informed, and from what Li Dan said, he made up for it by himself, roughly outlining the general outline of the Huajin Rebellion, no wonder he was hesitant, in fact, it involved the issue of the military system of the Song Dynasty.

Maybe the people of the Chen family fled back at that time, but it's not right to calculate the time. After all, it happened twenty years ago, even if the Chen family escaped, more than ten years have passed, the matter should be settled, there is no need to hide it, of course, it is possible that the Chen family has lived in the Song Dynasty for a long time, and it is normal for the neighbors in the river to not be close to each other, and not to move around.

However, the grievances between Jin Meng and the Chen family have not been resolved for 20 years, which is quite curious. It's a pity that both sides are dead, and it's hard to gossip about it.

"Then it's been 20 years, it is estimated that the Chen family has also settled in Fujian, and I don't know if there are any relatives and friends alive." Chi Qiu sighed: "Do you have any Fujian in your team, you might as well inquire and let the Chen family send someone else, or pick up the two female babies?" ”

"What, you said the Chen family?"

"Well, what's wrong?"

"What's the name of the head of the house?"

Chi Qiu shook his head, Li Dan suddenly walked out of the side room, jumped into the courtyard, lifted the white cloth of the corpse, one was not, two were not, it seemed that he was looking for something.

"What are you?"

When he turned to the cover of the head of the Chen family, Li Dan's eyes widened, his pupils constricted, as if he was thinking about something.

After a while, Li Dan shook his head and said, "It's not very similar." ”

"What doesn't look like it?" Is it a wanted criminal? If this is the case, even a wanted criminal remembered by ordinary Song Jun must be a big guy, and Chi Qiu's gossip heart inevitably rose again.

"It's nothing, my son's surname is Chen, it's a big family, and I've seen some of her relatives, so let's take a look."

"Uh." That's it.

Li Dan explained: "My family is originally from Xinghua, Fujian Province, and is also from the Zhenjun, and Neizi is a border citizen of Jianzhou, since they are all surnamed Chen, why don't I write a letter and ask Neizi if anyone knows who the Chen family has a relationship with in this Yanhu Lake." ”

"Write a letter?" Chi Qiu sighed, how far away this Fujian is, letters and exchanges, if you don't go to the post station to expedit, it will be almost half a year, and he was suddenly bored, and replied casually: "Okay." ”

Li Dan also wanted to explain that at this time, the officials of the city government arrived, and since the official government of Yanhu had taken over, he also led the Song people back to the station.

Chi Qiu entered and told everyone about the matter that he had just investigated, and when he heard about it, he was not interested.

Brother Cai, as the old man of the old town, had such a major event, and the Chen family seemed to be unable to find relatives and friends for a while, so he said: "Lao Yang, at this time, you talk to Chen Shan, after all, they are distant relatives, as for the things to do, let's Zhang Luo." Go and prepare some coffins first, and when the official mission is finished, it will be reined, as for the ...... on the other side of the mountain, Brother Cai looked at the little county lord with a solicitation: "Do you need my mercenary group to inform me in private?" Let them send someone to collect the body? ”

Mercenaries have mercenary rules, and when they encounter mercenaries from different employers, even if they fight in a desperate situation, they generally will not treat each other's corpses badly. It's just that today's events seem to be aimed at the Yanhu bureaucracy, if you don't know, it's just that, since you know, it's not appropriate for Brother Cai to act according to the mercenary tradition. After all, the reason why the mercenary group is called a mercenary group rather than a killer group is that most of them are composed of veterans with a sense of honor, and the killer group that is really active in the rivers and lakes is raised from childhood, or unprincipled mercenaries.

"I'll ask my father first. I'll reply to you again. The little county lord squinted his eyes and thought about it, these people actually designed to assassinate the official, which means declaring war, if the city lord chooses to make it public, then these corpses are evidence.

"That's great!" Brother Cai faced Lao Yang and narrowed his eyes: "That traitor Zhuang Ding, after the official proves his identity, pull it out and feed the dog." ”

"Yes!"

This material brother is also the owner of the village, and he is the most taboo about this kind of traitor, and the methods used are naturally more fierce. Everyone had no objections, but Chi Qiu said: "Why dirty the dog's belly, after all, it's too dirty, and the mass grave digs a pit and buries it." ”

The little county lord remembered the epidemic a while ago, and said: "The corpse is still burned, and now the epidemic has not completely subsided, don't harm the dogs." ”

Since the little county lord said so, Brother Cai didn't insist, anyway, in Wuyue, the cremation of the corpse was similar to being eaten by a dog.

As for the two girls, Brother Cai suggested that while they were asleep, they should be taken to his manor, so that the two dolls would not be stimulated when they saw the corpses in the courtyard tomorrow.

Chi Qiu hesitated to tell the story of those two girls? In his heart, these two girls are not mortals, they dare to kill people with knives at a young age, especially the girl in red, the three knives are all to wipe people's necks, this way, unless it is a last resort, Chi Qiu is a little unable to get into the water.

After thinking about it, he still didn't say it, but Brother Cai saw that everyone had no objections, so he ordered someone to find a few cars, send the little county lord back all the way, take the girl back all the way, and return to the Jietang with Chi Qiu and Dihua all the way.

And Ding Zhangqi was seriously injured and difficult to move, so Ding Feiyan naturally stayed to take care of him.

This arrangement was settled, everyone dispersed, and the bloodshed of the night gradually dispersed into the night, and it was really a long night.

Sitting in the car, Chi Qiu was a little tired, and Dihua leaned on his hand without suspicion, this action has been maintained since Dihua saw Ding Feiyan.

At first, Chi Qiu was really a little uncomfortable, but when he saw Dihua's eyes, he knew that her action was for Ding Feiyan to see.

As for why it was targeted at Ding Feiyan instead of Yan Yu'er? Chi Qiu didn't understand it very much, he lay in the car and pretended to be asleep, peeked at the first flower, the posture was like seeing a stranger, a little confused. Women are so weird, they can quickly find their competitors in the crowd, and they are very accurate.

Poisoned by online texts, Chi Qiu always felt deep down in his heart that a woman like Dihua has a low social level, shouldn't she know that the male protagonist has a woman with a higher identity background by his side, whether the male protagonist likes the woman, or the female protagonist likes the male protagonist, a woman from a small family like her will hide aside and secretly bless her, or say that she is willing to be small?

It's a pity that the first flower didn't, and there was still a bit of a demonstration, of course, Chi Qiu didn't think there was anything wrong or shouldn't be, but the cold frost in Feiyan's eyes and the hostility in the first flower's eyes made him feel numb. There are no elders in the family, and Chi Qiu suddenly thought of a stalk, when he used to arrange marriages, he asked for freedom one by one; Now that he is in free love, the remaining men and women are begging their parents to "arrange", hey, now he is facing this state. To tell the truth, it is "cheap".

Forget it, today Chi Qiu is a life and death catastrophe, if there is no two girls to let the dog, Jin Meng and they will go directly into the house to disrespect Ding Feiyan, if Chi Qiu is a good man at that time, maybe his life will be put in, a ecstasy scholar will make it difficult for him to deal with, if he fights with Jin Meng, the ecstasy scholar will sweep the formation next to him with light skills, and Chi Qiu will almost be defeated.

Now that I think about it, my feet are a little weak, the days between the rivers are often beaten and killed, not peaceful, I used to know that the Duchy of Weilan was hostile to Yanhu, and the Dingtao Xie family also wanted to dismantle the stage, and the Jiangnan Song Dynasty was also involved, and now the Knights of the Queshan Mountain also came to make a shock, and Chi Qiu wanted to leave this place of right and wrong.

The first three are okay to say, at most they play a little conspiracy, the most terrifying is the Queshan Knights, Chi Qiu knows that this knight regiment is not small, it has its own legend in the Wuyue Continent, and there is even a book "The Legend of the Queshan" dedicated to telling the legendary story of this cavalry regiment, so that it is not easy to show, so as not to make others suspicious.

Chi Qiu once read "The Legend of the Mountains", which recorded that before the Song Dynasty, there was an imperial dynasty in the south of the Yangtze River, and the founder's surname was Xiao, who considered himself a descendant of Xiao Liang of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, so the country name "Daliang" was Jinling, known as Houliang in history.

This Later Liang was originally set as the capital of Jinling, and Taizu Xiao Gui can be regarded as an emperor who works hard. Before he became emperor, he fought against Nanyi in southern Hunan for many years, tearing the soil and sealing the marquis, so after he ascended the throne, most of the policies implemented were beneficial to Liang's political stability and economic recovery and development. United family family, expelled Beiyi, many northern expeditions, created the prosperity of the Great Liang, there is a great posture of unifying the Eastern Continent, however, the good times did not last long, after Taizu, there was a rebellion of the five kings, rapid decline, the end of the Liang Dynasty appeared a foreign relative of the power of Zou Wu to control the court, when he was in power, he built a martial city, and then coerced the lord of the Later Liang State to move the capital to Jiangling, which was convenient for him to control.

Zou Wu felt that it was not safe for the imperial court to stay in Jiangling, so he coerced the Later Liang Emperor, fled to Wucheng, and recruited local homeless people, down-and-out warriors between the rivers and hired some cavalry regiments in the name of the imperial court in Queshan, forming an army, in a vain attempt to recapture Jiangling, which can be said to be the predecessor of the Queshan mercenary group.

Other warlords also set up a new emperor in Jiangling, and after several years of fighting, perhaps because Zou Wu and his son were too unpopular, or maybe they couldn't pay the military expenses, they were all killed by their mercenary groups one after another, and Zou Wu killed the puppet Emperor Liang before being killed, and then ascended the throne in Wucheng to establish the Wu Dynasty.

After he was proclaimed emperor, the enthronement ceremony cost a lot, and the commissions of the mercenaries from all walks of life were misappropriated and deducted, causing the mercenaries to be dissatisfied, so they simply chose their own leader and killed Zou Wu, and then the mercenary group set up Zou Wu's son as the emperor, negotiated with all parties, and asked the princes, kingdoms, and dynasties around Wu Zou to pay out the military expenses owed by Zou Wu's father and son, if they didn't give it, they would fight, and the other princes would naturally not be the big boss of the injustice, so there was such a freak, in order to ask for salary, and the surrounding princes were at war all year round.

At that time, the Zhong family in Yingzhou wanted to take the mercenary group as their own, so they sent people to communicate and persuade them, and among the mercenary groups, the mercenaries from Jingchu agreed to agree, but the other part of the mercenaries from Hejian did not agree, resulting in a civil war in the mercenary group. In the end, the Zhong family won the victory, thus establishing the Zhongxuan Kingdom, and the mercenary group was divided into several parts, among which the Zhong family later became the royal knights of the Zhongxuan Imperial Kingdom, and gradually became a regular army. And the defeated part returned to Queshan, and from then on, the name of the Queshan mercenary group was established.

When the Quishan mercenary group escaped from Wucheng, they killed Emperor Wu and looted the palace, they had a large amount of gold and silver, and they regained their strength and recruited many military servants, and the more they fought, the stronger they became, Emperor Zhongxuan had no choice, he had no energy to fight, and refused to pay Zou Wu's father and son's arrears, so he simply canonized the leader of the Queshan Knights as the earl, and the mercenaries under him were knights.

The Knights of Queshan have been entrenched in southern Henan for many years, and almost none of them have lived in harmony with the surrounding princes, and the Xie family of Chenjun was beaten away by them early and became the first Jiumu to completely lose their land. Many princes in southern Henan, including the Yingchuan Xun family and the Du family, were bullied by him, don't want it, just such a tyrannical knight order finally committed public anger, attracting the encirclement and suppression of the surrounding princes, even so, the twelve princes were unable to help it, after the "battle of the twelve princes", the knights of the mountain still existed, but it was divided for more than ten years.

A few years ago, in the Du family's "Chang'an of the Heart", the Du family hired them to fight against the Hejian princes, and the old form of the knights sprouted, and they were hostile to the Hejian princes again for money. After the war, the Knights of the Queshan were once again isolated by the surrounding river princes, which reminded Chi Qiu of two terms: "Catalan mercenary regiment" and "Kurds". Of course, this cavalry regiment also has its interesting stories, such as after accepting the canonization of the Xuan Dynasty, they did not completely obey the orders of the Xuan Emperor, but they never went south again. For this reason, an idiom was also born, "the ambition of the mountain" to describe stubbornness.

Just such a knight order, hostile to the Quartet all the year round, but still standing, the key is to win, strengthen themselves, once they know that it was "Chi Qiu" who killed their deputy group "Jin Meng", what should they do if they send someone to chase and kill? Thinking of this, Chi Qiu shuddered, regretting that he didn't have the idea of stopping Brother Cai from returning the body.

I can't wait to go to see Yan Su'er immediately, ask her to supervise the city lord's veto this proposal, and ask those present today to keep silent. Otherwise, he was really targeted by such a stunned knight order, and Chi Qiu was still "messing around" in the river. Maybe after a good night's sleep, your head will fall off. Thinking about it, his back was cold, and he sat up all of a sudden, startling the first flower who was leaning on his arms.
