Chapter 8: Tian Zao retreats and captures Huyan, steals armor and enters the mountains to earn golden guns

Qingzhou was besieged for several days, and every day, there were more and more flags in the besieged city and camps, and the cooking smoke also increased. Murong Prefect was shocked when he saw it: "The thief soldiers have seen additional soldiers again, what can I do?" Hu Yanzhuo saw it and sneered: "Xianggong is relieved, this is the demon girl's plan to add a stove, it must be a false banner, add more stove eyes, but in fact, the number of troops has not increased, so as to bluff, mess with our army's heart, and guard the city." ”

Murong Governor said worriedly: "The general said that it is important to guard the city, but the thieves have besieged the city for several days, although there is no shortage of rice and grain, but there is a lack of firewood in the city, and the people are suffering, but they don't know when the siege will be lifted." ”

Hu Yanzhuo said: "Previously, the prime minister had sent a messenger to ask for help, and it was expected that in a few days, the weather would warm up, and reinforcements would come from Zuo Jinzhou County. "Murong Governor thought so.

And after five days had passed, on the sixth day, when he was looking at the head of the city, there was silence in the camp outside the city, and there was no smoke for cooking. After Hu Yanzhuo and Murong Prefect got the report, they were both hesitant and went to watch.

Prefect Murong looked at it and asked, "General Huyan, what kind of trick is this demon girl playing?" Hu Yanzhuo was also shocked, and only said: "Could it be a fraud?" Wait and see how it gets better. "The prefect of Murong responded, and the left and right of the sect must not be relaxed, and only care about guarding the city.

After waiting like this for a day, the camp outside the city was quiet, and no smoke rose, and the officers and soldiers at the head of the city were amazed.

At dawn the next day, when Hu Yanzhuo and Murong Governor went to the city to look at it again, one of the generals pointed to the camp and said: "Xianggong, please see, in that camp, there are birds resting, and there is no frightening flight, I think it is an empty camp." Hu Yanzhuo suddenly realized: "Could it be that the demon girl had to retreat one by one a few days ago." I am afraid that the military horses in our city will pursue, so I inflate the flag. Add cooking smoke to confuse it? ”

Murong Prefect frowned and said, "Since the thieves have retreated. And he opened the gates of the city, and let the people go in and out. Hu Yanzhuo said: "Be careful, that demon girl is scheming, I am willing to lead the army to investigate, if it is really retreated, it is not too late to open the city gate." "The prefect of Murong responded.

At that moment, Hu Yanzhuo put on his clothes, ordered the five hundred horse army in the city, and went out of the city to investigate. When I went to the camp, it was empty. Hu Yanzhuo said to himself: "Is that demon girl really withdrawing and leaving?" "It's suspicious. But when he saw the east side of the camp, he flew alone, dressed in white and plain armor, with a white horse under his crotch, and after standing a hundred steps away, Hu Yanzhuo looked at it and exclaimed: "It's you!" ”

That person was Hu Sanniang, I saw her strangling the war horse, and said loudly: "Hu Yanzhuo, I will be here alone." Do you dare to come and catch me? Hu Yanzhuo was furious when he heard this, pulled out his double whip, and rode his horse to the depths of the camp. Fang had just rushed out more than fifty steps, and only shouts could be heard. Hu Yanzhuo was stepping on the pit, and the people and horses were about to fall into the pit. In the tents on both sides, fifty or sixty hook scratchers came out. First put up the hook of Huyanzhuo, tied it up and took it away. The horse was led in the back. When the five hundred officers and soldiers saw this, they shouted. They all rushed to the rescue. But he was shot by Sanniang with a bow and arrows, and the beaded arrows were shot down by five or seven of the head, and the horses behind him were all gone.

Sanniang whistled, three cannons rang out in the camp, and countless military horses were snatched out of the forest around the camp, only chasing the five hundred military horses. The 500 soldiers and horses panicked, and when they arrived at the city, the officers and soldiers in the city did not have time to pull up the drawbridge, only to see a walker leading the army to grab it, so he grabbed the drawbridge first, killed more than a dozen officers and soldiers, and seized the city gate in one fell swoop.

The walker was Wu Song, seeing that Wu Song had seized the city gate, Murong Prefect hurriedly ordered the officials and soldiers in the city to rush to kill and recapture the city gate, but saw a fat monk, dancing a water mill Zen staff impenetrable, and killed directly into the city gate, and the officials and soldiers could not resist it, and retreated again and again. This fat monk is none other than Lu Zhishen.

Seeing that the city gate was captured, the ten leaders of Liangshan behind him led the army into the city gate, and they were facing the Murong prefect in a panic, and came down from the city, and they were shot by Luan Tingyu and killed the Murong prefect. Xie Zhen and Xie Bao set fire; Ou Peng and Wang Xiaohu rushed to the city and killed the soldiers, and Li Kui had a pair of plate axes and only went to the city to kill the officers and soldiers.

Hu Sanniang and Huang Wenbing led a large group of people, saw the fire in the city, and rushed in together. Sanniang sent an order early: suspend the religion and kill the people, and collect the money and grain from the warehouse, and the officials and soldiers surrender to avoid death. Therefore, a group of Liangshan military horses only killed the officers and soldiers, and the officers and soldiers in the city were chased by the black whirlwind Li Kui, and finally they all knelt on the ground and begged for mercy. Li Kui sat on the ground and said angrily: "It's killing up, Brother Mu, you kicked me again." Mu Hong said with a smile: "The owner of the village knows your fierceness, and teaches me to only care about you, and if I can teach you not to kill one indiscriminately, I will do a great job." Li Kui shouted: "Is this also a credit? Wait for me to find the owner of the village to judge! Mu Hong smiled and pulled up Li Kui, and the two leading troops captured all the surrendered officers and soldiers, and turned around to restore their lives.

Kong Ming and Cao Zheng found the prison, so they rescued Kong Liang in the prison, and all the wronged people in the prison were released. Hua Rong and Zheng Tianshou caught the old and young of the Murong prefect's family, copied the furniture, and turned to restore their lives.

At noon, the shouting and killing in the city gradually stopped, and Sanniang gathered all the generals in the Qingzhou Mansion, and the generals came to make contributions. Cao Zheng and others escorted Hu Yanzhuo to arrive, and after Sanniang ordered someone to untie him, he asked Hu Yanzhuo to sit. Hu Yanzhuo was puzzled and asked, "Dare to ask Hu Niangzi, why are many of your horses lying on the left side of the camp, and the birds and birds around you are not frightened?" Sanniang smiled and said nothing, Huang Wenbing said: "There are people in our army who are good at raising birds, and those birds and finches are all raised. ”

Hu Yanzhuo hung his head and was dejected, Sanniang said: "General Huyan, you have been defeated many times, and now you have lost Qingzhou City, that is, if you go back, you will be blamed by the imperial court, at least you will have to go to Shamen Island, or at worst, you will be killed by your family, and the Song Dynasty will not be able to go back, why don't you come to my cottage and sit on a chair?" ”

Hu Yanzhuo said angrily: "I have reached such a point, it is all thanks to you, I Hu Yanzhuo has been the door for generations, how can I rebel?" Sanniang said with one hand: "Since this is the case, I will first ask General Huyan to return to my Liangshan as a guest." At that moment, he ordered the left and right to take Hu Yanzhuo down to supervise him first, and then return to the mountain and escort him back together.

The officers in the Sanniang Sect Army recorded the merits of the generals one by one, and they were only rewarded after returning to the mountain. When the Insight came to the Murong Prefect's family, Huang Wenbing asked: "This Murong Prefect's family is here, but they don't know how to get it." Sanniang said: "You can distribute rice and grain outside the government." Gather the people. Then he handed over his family to the people in the city to deal with, if this Murong prefect usually oppressed the people, the people would definitely not let his family go. If he was still an honest official, the people would naturally spare his family. ”

Huang Wenbing obeyed the order, so he counted the houses of the people in the city who were burned down, gave relief to the scattered money and food, and gathered the people at the gate of the government. Then Huang Wenbing tied up the old and young of the Murong prefect's family to the door of the mansion and told the people, when the people heard that it was the family members of the Murong prefect's house, the crowd was surging, so they rushed up and beat the family to death on the spot, leaving no one alive.

Then Sanniang ordered to load five or six hundred carts of gold and silk in the treasury and rice and grain in the warehouse; After getting more than 200 good horses, he made a celebratory feast in Qingzhou Mansion and invited the leaders of the three mountains to return to Dazhai together. Lu Zhishen sent Li Zhong, Zhou Tong, and Cao Zheng back to Erlong Mountain, and Zhang Qing, Sun Erniang, and Shi En packed up the money and grain of the people, horses, and horses, and also burned the fence of Baozhu Temple. Within a few days, the people of the three mountains were all complete.

Sanniang led a large team of people and horses, and the class returned to the mountain. First call Hua Rong, Luan Tingyu, Lei Heng, and Zhu Tong to open the way, and the states and counties they pass through will not be disturbed. The people in the countryside help the old and the young, and burn incense to greet them. Within a few days, I have arrived at Liangshan Bobian.

Many naval army leaders greeted them by boats. Gongsun Sheng and Lin Chong led the leaders of the cottage Mabu and greeted them at the golden beach. Until Dazhai, sit down on the Juxian Hall. A large feast celebrates the new leaders of the cottage, Lu Zhishen, Yang Zhi, Wu Song, Shi En, Cao Zheng, Zhang Qing, Sun Erniang, Li Zhong, Zhou Tong, Kong Ming, Kong Liang: a total of eleven new leaders on the mountain.

Sitting in the room, Lin Chong talked about Xie Lu Zhishen's rescue. Lu Zhishen said with a smile: "The Sprinkle family is all listening to the orders of the mother-in-law, and I heard that the sister-in-law is now in the village, and the head of the family is reunited, so there are thousands of happy events." Lin Chong replied: "It is thanks to the junior sister who came to take the father-in-law's family up the mountain last year, and it is really a family reunion." Everyone laughed.

Yang Zhi raised the matter of Wang Lun's hand going up the mountain to meet in the old days, and everyone said: "This is all destined, not accidental!" Gongsun Sheng talked about Huang Nigang's robbery of the Birth Gang again, and everyone laughed. The next day, they took turns to make a feast.

Let's say that Sanniang saw that there were many horses added to the cottage, how could she not like it, and taught the armies to select and train elite soldiers according to the new book of discipline. On this day, the mountain came down to report that Tang Long, Meng Kang, and Shi Qian had led a good man.

All the heroes came to the pass to greet them, but they saw Tang Long, Meng Kang, and Shi Qian leading a few sedan chair drivers, carrying a soft sedan chair, and carrying a big man up the mountain. Huang Wenbing and the others were all surprised when they saw it, and asked, "Who is this?" Sanniang said with a smile: "This person is Tang Long's aunt and brother, the head of the golden gun class in the capital, and the one who calls the golden gunner Xu Ning is." ”

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and Lin Chong said: "This sect leader's methods are not weaker than mine, how can he earn him here?" Shi Qian replied with a smile: "I listened to the instructions of the owner of the village and discussed with the Tang Long brothers, this Xu Jiaotou has a family heirloom armor, which is very precious, so he stole his treasure armor and led him all the way to this place, and then he turned the medicine and hemp, and this was carried up the mountain." ”

Sanniang said: "This Xu Jiaotou has superb martial arts skills, and he still has a set of hook and sickle gun combat techniques, which can be practiced in the future to resist the northern cavalry, so he ordered Shi Qian and Tang Long to go and earn him to go up the mountain to join the gang." He asked again: "Can the family of Xu Jiaotou move in together?" Tang Long said: "I have taken it to the bottom of the mountain, and I will come later." ”

At that moment, Sanniang ordered to use the antidote to wake up Xu Ning, Xu Ning opened his eyes and saw everyone, was taken aback, and asked Tang Long: "Brother, how do you earn me here?" Tang Long said: "Brother listen to me: the younger brother has already been entrusted to Hu Niangzi to join the gang, and now Hu Niangzi has become the owner of Liangshan, heard the name of the elder brother, so he asked the younger brother to invite the elder brother to join the gang, but he wanted to be an officer of the elder brother, he must refuse, so he made Shi Qian come first to steal your armor, but taught the younger brother to earn his brother on the road, and then made Meng Kang pretend to be Li Rong. Xu Ning said: "But my brother sent me too!" (To be continued.) )
