Everyone was overjoyed when they heard the words, and they high-fived each other and celebrated, and now according to the agreement, Dongting Lake is completely Liangshan's, Wang Qing and their people must not be touched again, otherwise it is equivalent to breaking their word and getting fat in front of the heroes of the whole world, and the only people they will deal with next are officers and soldiers.

But Hu Yanzhuo heard the sound outside the strings, and he was surprised: "This Yue Fei is so powerful, he can break the grain road of Duan Wu with only eight hundred people and intercept and kill them in the back, this person is extraordinary in terms of martial arts and military strategy, and he is even more courageous, how come I have never heard of his name?" ”

Yang Qi said: "I also sent someone to investigate his intelligence, it is said that he is just in his early twenties, but he was born in the martial arts of Huayin County, and then repeatedly captured thieves and was promoted to the head of the infantry, although this time the imperial court rounded up us to send a conscription notice to the Dongting Lake Prefecture, but he was the only one who responded at the county level, and most of these 800 people are said to be the militia recruited privately by himself, not the imperial army. ”

After hearing this, everyone looked at each other, especially Zhu Tong and Lei Heng were even more dumbfounded, they thought that it was enough to bury talents with their own skills, but they didn't expect that this Yue Fei seemed to sound even more powerful, and he dared to participate in a battle of this level with only a few hundred militiamen, and it also played a decisive role.

Hu Yanzhuo is also quite proud of himself, and he couldn't help but sigh at this time: "Sure enough, it is the back waves of the Yangtze River that push the front waves, I can't imagine that there are such outstanding talents, isn't it that the qi of this court is still unfinished?" ”

Du Jia smiled: "It's okay, I'm getting more and more interested in this Yue Fei, and to some extent, we should also be grateful to this Yue Fei, if he hadn't defeated Duan Wu and them, we wouldn't have been able to win this bet easily, hehehe." ”

Everyone thought about it, and then they laughed, and Yang Qi said again: "Jia Shao, in the past few months, we have also made great gains in the research of vehicles and ships, a total of nearly 1,000 ships have been built from two to eight rounds, and even five or six ships have been built for sixteen rounds, and now only those thirty-two rounds have not been conquered." ”

Du Jia said with a smile: "Great, this is really good news, let everyone continue to work harder, brother, continue to send scouts out to be careful, see when the officers and soldiers come to attack, and then we have to surprise the officers and soldiers." ”

Yang Mi hurriedly nodded and said that he had gone down to arrange, and within three or five days, several spies came to report, saying that the officers and soldiers were ready to move after repelling Wang Qing's soldiers and horses, and they had continued to set up a large village on the shore of Dongting Lake, not to mention, they were still building and collecting ships, and it seemed that they were planning to attack from the lake again.

After receiving the news, Du Jia nodded with satisfaction, summoned the generals to come over and discuss it, and then arranged it after unifying their opinions, and all the generals were ordered to go out to prepare, Du Jia smiled faintly in the house, slowly clenched his right fist and said: "Yue Wumu, I'm sorry, although I respect you very much, but this time I must also catch you, I hope you can serve well under my command, and we will fight against Jin Bing together." ”

It turned out that after the defeat of the troops of Wang Qing, the king of Chu, Zhang Peng immediately reported his merits - the report had to add oil and vinegar, and said that the 30,000 people of Duan Wu's troops became 50,000, and then they killed and wounded more than 30,000, and his previous repulsion naturally became a deliberate lure of the enemy to go deeper, and Yue Fei, who played a vital role in the lone army going deep behind the enemy, naturally became an order from his old man.

This report was sent to the palace marshal's mansion several lieutenants and privy envoys are very happy, at this time, no matter what faction, when dealing with the rebellious thieves, the position is the same, Zhang Peng immediately from the five-rank horse army training envoy directly promoted to the fourth rank of the palace deputy commander, control all the troops in the encirclement and suppression of Dongting Lake, the rest of the officers also have their own rewards, Yue Fei because the credit is too great, although he has been divided into seven or eight percent by the upper layers, but because his previous rank is too low, These only two or three successes also made him jump from the head of the infantry army of the eighth rank to the captain of the sixth grade, and he was rewarded with a thousand taels of silver.

Unlike others who put away the money, Yue Fei gave the thousand taels of silver to his soldiers on the spot, so the morale was even more boosted, although Zhang Peng secretly scoffed at this 'stupid' behavior, but now it was the time to employ people, so they not only did not laugh at Yue Fei but also praised Yue Fei, and allocated another thousand men and horses to Yue Fei to lead, and rewarded him with a lot of armor and weapons and other materials.

At this time, they were eager to make meritorious contributions, so they planned to continue to march into Dongting Lake and complete the business that Chen Chang had not been able to complete before, Zhang Peng and others were ambitious, and wanted to rely on this merit to directly enter the imperial court and become real big men.

Although Yue Fei did not approve of starting an attack on Yang Mi so early, in his opinion, this was Yang Mi's home field, the time and place were favorable, and they did not occupy it, so it was better to accumulate strength first and do a good job of intelligence before sending troops, but his opinion was directly rejected by Zhang Peng and others, but he was reprimanded, saying that he was too bold, how to establish meritorious service?

It's just that Zhang Peng and the others forgot that when they fought with Duan Wu before, Yue Fei took a mere 800 people to go deep into the enemy's rear alone, if such people were all timid, then no one would dare to say that they were bold.

Yue Fei had to obey his fate, Zhang Peng forced the craftsmen to build for two days and nights, and he gathered two or three thousand ships in half a month, and he immediately hurriedly gathered the generals to start marching, but this time he still did not reuse Yue Fei, but let Zhang Jun and Ma Chunhua each bring 5,000 men and horses to live on the two wings, and he brought 10,000 people to guard the middle road, and Yue Fei was thrown by him to the reserve team, and waited until the front of the war was tight to help.

Zhang Peng is still quite wary of Yue Fei, in his opinion, dealing with Yang Qi's three or two thousand 'remnants of the defeated general' is like pouring snow on the soup, as soon as the army arrives, it will inevitably be captured, this kind of robbery when Yue Fei's guy is in the way or it is better to stay away from the main battlefield, how good is it to share his credit as directly as Lord Ben?

Sure enough, as he expected, Yang Qi and the others sent a team to meet the battle, not to mention the poor equipment, and even the ships they took were all tattered and riddled with holes, obviously although they narrowly defeated Chen Chang and them in the previous battle, they were also seriously injured, and this good opportunity to pick up the wallet came.

Yang Mi and their team and officers and soldiers were defeated as soon as they came into contact, just the wave of arrows and rain made them unable to bear it, so they had to jump into the water and escape, even those ships didn't care about it, Lord Zhang naturally smiled and let his subordinates carefully put it away, although the ship was broken, it was evidence of his meritorious service.
