The flowers bloom at two ends, each with a branch, but it is said that the lord of Qiongying, Ye Qing, and Sheng Ben stayed overnight, turned back to the land of Sanjin, and arrived at Weisheng, and first entered the house to meet Uncle Wu Li. Wu Li asked, "Is the lord of Liangshan willing to form an alliance with the Song Dynasty?" ”

Ye Qing pretended to be annoyed and said: "Those Liangshan thieves are very rude, and the Liangshan demon girl not only refuses to form an alliance to fight the Song, but also keeps saying that she wants to fight us!" Wu Li was taken aback when she heard this: "Why is this so? Liangshan has just destroyed 100,000 troops and horses in the Song court, and the Song court will raise a large army to conquer her sooner or later, and she doesn't think about how to resist the enemy's official army, but wants to cross many states and counties to fight us here? ”

Qiong Ying said: "I heard that after the Song Dynasty was defeated for a while, the court had a lot of thoughts of recruiting An, so he sent a Su Taiwei to recruit An. I think that the female thief of Liangshan only wanted to recruit peace, so the Song court taught her to raise troops to come to recruit us. ”

Sheng Ben also said angrily: "I heard that the captain was coming, and the female thief drove us down the mountain overnight in order to show her sincerity. So I hurried back to report the news. ”

Wu Li was furious when she heard this: "How can this be reasonable, Liangshan deceives people too much, so I will change my clothes and enter the palace to see the lord." Wu Li changed her clothes and went to the palace to see Tian Hu and reported the matter.

After Wu Li left, Ye Qing discussed with Qiong Ying and Sheng Ben: "In this way, sure enough, this Wu Li is not suspicious of us, but if the owner wants to enter the army, we should deploy Tianhu's soldiers and horses, and communicate them one by one." ”

Qiong Ying said: "Counselor Wu Li's military aircraft, in the study here, there are many official documents of military aircraft, and there is also a topographic map of military aircraft, which depicts the geographical features of the land of the Three Jin Dynasty, and there are more Tianhu soldiers and horses deployed to mark it. ”

Ye Qing was careful and said busily: "If Wu Li doesn't have the military plane map, how can he not be suspicious?" After the picture was taken, when the person was looking for a copy of it, the original picture was still returned, and only the copied picture was sent. ”

Sheng Ben said: "I have lived in the Daimyo Mansion for a long time, and after coming to the land of Sanjin, I reunited with an old acquaintance, that person's surname is Xu, the double name Guan Zhong, in the old days in the Daimyo Mansion, calligraphy and painting for a living, I have to copy a good painting, I can ask him to come and copy the painting." ”

Qiong Ying and Ye Qing were overjoyed, and immediately asked Sheng Ben to invite, and Qiong Ying went to the study to steal the paintings. After a while, Sheng Ben brought a person to the mansion, and when Qiong Ying and Ye Qing looked at that person, they were born: bright eyes, eyebrows and eight characters. Seven-foot-long and short body, with three teeth covering his mouth and beard. Wear a black crepe scarf to wipe the eyebrows, and wear a brown sermon dress with a collar along the edge. Tie a miscellaneous Lu Gong belt, with a pair of green cloth shoes. It must not be a mediocre person, but a man in the mountains and forests.

Qiong Ying and Ye Qing saw that the person's appearance was strange, and the wind was cool and elegant, so they hurriedly caught Shi Li and said, "I have heard the name of the righteous man for a long time. That person was the Xu Guanzhong that Sheng Ben said, and Wang Qiongying bowed: "I have heard the name of the county lord for a long time!" See you today. ”

At that moment, Qiong Ying invited Xu Guanzhong to sit down, and Sheng Ben accompanied him. After sitting down, Xu Guanzhong said: "The reason for this trip, Brother Sheng has already told me. That Tian Hu is the victim of one party, the people have been suffering for a long time, this trip to get rid of him, it is the wish of my generation, and the villain is willing to serve the work of dogs and horses. ”

Qiong Ying was overjoyed, and immediately took out the map of the Sanjin military plane, and after Xu Guanzhong looked at it carefully, he said: "I know it in my chest, and I can prepare pen, ink, paper, and inkstone." At that moment, Ye Qing brought pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and Xu Guanzhong's pen was like a god, and he copied a picture in a few days. Qiong Ying and Ye Qing put the original picture together, and it was exactly the same.

Qiong Ying and the three of them were all overjoyed, and Ye Qing said: "Without further ado, send someone to send this picture." It's just that I can't go back until I wait for the three to be put back. You have to find someone you trust and send the picture to you. ”

Xu Guanzhong said: "The kid ancestor Guan Daimyo Mansion clan, in the past, handed over the contract with the head of Liangshan Yanqing, and he didn't want to be separated for more than ten years, so he couldn't get together. I heard that he was also under the command of Lord Liangshanbo, so how about the boy go to deliver the picture? ”

Qiong Ying and the three were overjoyed, and they all said: "Brother Xu and the leader of Liangshan have an old relationship, it couldn't be better." At that moment, Xu Guanzhong entrusted his family to Sheng Ben, took the luggage and wrapped it around, hid the map of the Sanjin military plane close to him, and threw a simple knife to the south.

Besides, after Sanniang sent Su Yuanjing, Qiong Ying and others away, she prepared grain and grass and rectified the military horses. After waiting for ten months, news came that the Song court had allowed the Liangshan army and horses to go to the land of the Three Jin Dynasty to conquer Tianhu.

After receiving the news, Sanniang, Lu Junyi, and Gongsun Sheng ordered the army and horses to go out, with a total of more than 30 leaders and a total of 50,000 soldiers and horses of the Mabu Water Army, commanding the Chinese army and marching together, and Liangshan left Lin Chong, Huang Wenbing, Luan Tingyu and others to garrison. On the same day, the three horns and the golden drum instruments sounded in unison, leaving Liangshan and looking to the northwest.

Sanniang's orders are strict, Liangshan military horses, strong armor, military rectification, and no offense in the autumn where they pass, needless to say. When the soldiers arrived at the boundary of Yuanwu County, the county officials had already obtained the will of the imperial court, so they went out to the suburbs to greet them, and the front post reported that the leader of the army was waiting to cross the river by the riverside.

Sanniang ordered Li Jun and others to lead 600 sailors, divided into two posts, divided into about the posts; Then some local boats were gathered and horses and carts were loaded. Sanniang and other soldiers crossed the north bank of the Yellow River for the first time, and ordered Li Jun and others to lead the warships and go to Weizhou and Weihe to take them.

The front of the Liangshan soldiers and horses, marched to Weizhou Tunza. Half a day later, Sanniang, Lu Junyi, Gongsun Sheng and other commanders of the Chinese army arrived, and when they arrived at a market town in Weizhou, several farmers from nearby villages came to watch. The brothers under the command of Sanniang and others lined up like geese, walking side by side in pairs.

As he was walking, he saw a leader in the front team, rolled his saddle and dismounted, and among the people looking to the left, he pulled a man and shouted, "How is my brother here?" The two saluted and spoke. Sanniang rode the Yuzhaoye lion horse, and when she gradually got closer to look, it was the prodigal son Yanqing, talking to a person. Yan Qing arched his hand and said, "Brother Xu, this is the owner of my family." ”

Sanniang saw that the person's appearance was extraordinary, and the wind was refreshing and elegant, so she hurriedly dismounted, bowed down and said, "Dare to ask the name of Coats?" That person was Xu Guanzhong, and Wang Sanniang bowed and said: "I have heard the name of the third lady for a long time!" See you today. Sanniang hurriedly helped her up and said, "Righteous and polite." ”

After Yan Qing introduced Xu Guanzhong, Xu Guanzhong took out the military plane map hidden close to him and said: "This is the military plane map that the lord of Qiongying County stole from Wu Li, the uncle of Tian Huguo, and his general Sanjin The local geography and the deployment of soldiers and horses are clearly marked, and the lord of Qiongying County specially ordered the villain to come south to present the map." ”

Sanniang and Yan Qing were overjoyed, Sanniang took the picture and looked at it carefully: "Mr. Xu is a hero, only eight buckets high, I am thirsty for talent here in Liangshan, and I dare to invite you to ask for advice." ”

Xu Guanzhong thanked him and said: "The owner is generous and righteous, Xu has wanted to serve each other for a long time, but because the old mother is over seventy years old, he does not dare to stay away." Sanniang bowed her head and said: "When you are on the ground, you don't dare to be strong." In the future, if Mr. is free, he will definitely come to my Liangshan. Xu Guanzhong bowed again: "After the elder mother finishes her filial piety, she will definitely come to vote." I only hope that the owner of the Bo will pacify the Tianhu thieves as soon as possible, and return the people of Sanjin to a bright future. After saying goodbye, Sanniang taught Yan Qing to take a plate of gold and silver to give away, Xu Guanzhong insisted on resigning, and then bowed and left.

After arriving in Weizhou, Sanniang's Chinese army set up camp, and in the Chinese army camp, Sanniang convened the generals to discuss the matter. Guan Sheng said: "Tianhu thieves have been arrogant for a long time, and my Liangshan army will go here, and it will be successful if it is defeated and adversed." There is only one thing, the mountains and rivers of Sanjin are steep, and two leaders must be careful to investigate the situation of the mountains and rivers before they can enter the army. ”

Before the road was over, Sanniang smiled: "Don't consume your heart, the situation of mountains and rivers is already here." At that moment, Sanniang ordered Yan Qing to take out the military plane map and display it on the table. Lu Junyi, Gongsun Sheng, Guan Sheng, Hu Yanzhuo and others will watch carefully from the beginning, but it is a map of the passes of the Sanjin Mountains and Rivers: where you can Tunza, where you can ambush, where you can fight, where Tianhu soldiers and horses, and Cangyu are all written on it.

Gongsun Sheng was surprised and asked, "Where did you get this picture?" Yan Qing said: "The day before yesterday, I had to meet an old acquaintance and hand over to Xu Guanzhong, and said that this picture was sent by the lord of Qiongying. Lu Junyi said: "It turned out to be Xu Guanzhong, who was also a member of the old Daimyo Mansion, and he was a good man, and you often told me about his benefits on weekdays, what is he doing now?" Yan Qing said: "Guan Zhong is erudite and talented, and he is also good at martial arts, has liver and gallbladder, and the rest of the small tricks, the piano and Danqing, everything is provincial." Because he did not want to go out, the mountain dwelling was secluded. And the words of the narrative, prepared to be repeated. Gongsun Sheng said: "There are people in the world who are sincere." Lu Junyi and the others sighed and praised.

When the military situation was being discussed, a military academy came from outside the tent to report, saying that Yin of Weizhou Mansion had come to ask for a meeting. Sanniang immediately ordered someone to introduce Nafu Yin into the tent. After seeing Sanniang, Nafu Yin said: "Lord Bo is noble, and the army is brought thousands of miles to share the worries of the court, and we are fortunate to do so." The Imada tiger thieves have a huge army, and the Zezhou pseudo-privy councillor Niu Wenzhong under the Tianhu is sent to send his subordinates Zhang Xiang and Wang Ji to lead 10,000 troops to attack Hui County, which belongs to Honzhou, and Shen An, Qin Sheng, who led 10,000 troops to attack Wushe, a county belonging to Huaizhou. Ask the owner to quickly rescue you! ”

When Sanniang heard this, after comforting her a few words, she sent someone to send Fu Yin back. After Nafu Yin went, Sanniang said: "Judging from the map of this military aircraft, there are 30,000 soldiers and horses under the command of Niu Wenzhong, the commander of Zezhou Tianhu, and now 20,000 are divided to fight Weizhou, and there are only 10,000 soldiers and horses in Zezhou. Lingchuan is an important place in Gaizhou, if you don't lead the troops to fight Lingchuan, the siege of the two counties will be relieved. I divided my soldiers into two routes, one way to Lingchuan and the other to Zezhou. ”

At that moment, Lu Junyi said: "Senior brother is not talented, I am willing to lead the troops to take Lingchuan." "Sanniang was overjoyed, and allocated Lu Junyi 10,000 horse troops and 5,000 infantry. The leaders of the Ma army are Hua Rong, Dong Ping, Suo Chao, Sun Li, Yang Zhi, Zhu Tong, and Mu Hong. The leaders of the infantry army were Li Kui, Bao Xu, Xiang Chong, Li Gon, Lu Zhishen, Wu Song, and Liu Tang.

The next day, Lu Junyi led the army to go, and Sanniang and Gongsun Sheng led a large army towards Zezhou.

Let's say that Lu Junyi led the soldiers and horses, and ordered Mu Hong and Sun Li to lead 3,000 soldiers to an ambush five miles east of Lingchuan City, and Zhu Tong and Yang Zhi led 3,000 troops to ambush five miles west of Lingchuan City. "Tonight, five drums, pick up the bells, and quietly go away. Tomorrow we will march into the army, if the enemy is not prepared, our soldiers have already won the city, only look at the south gate banner, the leaders led the army horses, slowly entered the city. If the enemy is prepared, fire artillery as a signal, and the two sides will fight together. "The four generals are gone. Lu Junyi made rice on the fifth watch in the morning, and the Pingming army and horses approached Lingchuan City. The soldiers were divided into three teams, and they were spread out in one area, waving flags and beating drums to fight. (To be continued.) )
