Chapter 11: The Rift

"Yang Maozi, what's going on with you today?" At the gate of his barracks, Cao Cheng finally caught up with Yang Zaixing, and said a little angrily, "I am the prestige that asked you to kill Yue Fei." This is good, but it makes Yue Fei even more invincible. ”

Cao Cheng's brother Ma You, who has always looked at the arrogant Yang Zaixing, is not pleasing to the eye, so he also fanned the flames next to him. "Could it be that you, Yang Maozi, saw that Yue Fei was his fellow villager, and his subordinates showed mercy, preparing for him to defect to Yue Fei one day? I'm telling you, you're ungrateful. ”

As soon as Ma You's words fell, Yang Zaixing's eyes flashed, and he stretched out his right hand, grabbed Ma You's neck, and lifted it up. Ma You's feet immediately lifted off the ground and he couldn't breathe. Yang Zaixing said word by word, "Ma You, what are you?" is also worthy of accusing me Yang Zaixing? If it weren't for your loyalty to Brother Cao, I would have taken your life today. ”

Although Cao Cheng was very unhappy with Ma You's words, he was about to be strangled to death by Yang Zaixing when he saw Ma You, and immediately shouted, "Yang Maozi, quickly put down Brother Ma." ”

As soon as Yang Zaixing let go, Ma You plopped and fell on his buttocks. Yang Zaixing moved his wrist, looked at Cao Cheng and said, "Big brother, in terms of fist and foot kung fu, I am indeed not Yue Fei's opponent. But when it comes to big guns right away, my Yang family gun has never lost anyone. ”

Cao Cheng said with a calm face, "In that case, tomorrow I will send you to lead the eight hundred black armor army as the vanguard, and go to kill Sha Guzhi first." So that Zong Shuai knew that Yue Fei was not the only one who could defeat the Golden Dog. ”

Yang Zaixing arched his hand and walked towards his tent alone. Walking into the tent, Yang Zaixing's calm and waveless eyes suddenly showed a trace of helplessness. Yang Zaixing is a native of Xiaoyangzhuang, Tangyin, Xiangzhou, his father died early, and his mother raised him alone, and his life was extremely hard. Yang Zaixing had a huge amount of food, but in order to save some food, he almost didn't dare to let go of his stomach to eat. When he was a teenager, Yang Zaixing was as thin as a bamboo pole. Even so, life at home is getting harder and harder. When Yang Zaixing was 14 years old, the family was interrupted, and his mother fell ill in bed. Yang Zaixing made a wheelbarrow, let his mother sit on the car, and began to go out to beg. But at that time, the entire Hebei West Road was made miserable by the Kuotian Law, and the people were hungry, and every family had no surplus food, where was there food for beggars?

When they walked to Caojia Dazhai in Neihuang County, Yang Zaixing and his mother were about to starve to death. At this time, Yang Zaixing met Cao Cheng, the young owner of the Cao family's Dazhai. Cao Cheng, who has always been willing to do bad things and ashamed to do good deeds, was kind that day and gave Yang Zaixing two roast chickens.

When Yang Zaixing tentatively proposed to work in Cao's Dazhai, Cao Cheng also agreed. However, he didn't let Yang Zaixing do ordinary work, but worked as a groom for him. Yang Zaixing, who lives in the Cao family, finally lives a full life.

Once he inadvertently showed a big gun kung fu in front of Cao Cheng, and a shot stabbed down the swallows passing in the air. Cao Cheng was greatly impressed. At that time, he took Yang Zaixing's hand and called him a brother. and invited Yang Zaixing's mother to the upper room and respected her as an aunt. Yang Zaixing's mother lived in Caofu for two years and died of illness. Cao Cheng personally wore linen and filial piety, and sent his mother's coffin to Xiaoyangzhuang, Tangyin County, with Yang Zaixing, and buried it with Yang's father.

Cao Cheng already had the idea of rebellion at that time. He went around recruiting heroes and adopting idlers. But he found that most of the famous heroes he recruited were not Yang Zaixing's opponents who were only 16 years old. Therefore, Cao Cheng relied on Yang Zaixing very much.

Although Yang Zaixing is a loyal queen, he does not have a good impression of the Zhao Song official family. Since the common people can't survive anymore, it's not a big deal to rise up. When Cao Cheng raised troops in Taihang Mountain, the prefect of Mengzhou sent 3,000 soldiers and horses to encircle and suppress. As a result, Yang Zaixing rode down from the mountain and stabbed the leading generals to death with one shot, and the officers and soldiers were all routed.

The prefect of Mengzhou was furious and invited a border army from the Daimyo Mansion to come to take revenge. But these border troops who could resist the Liao Iron Cavalry still did not stop Yang Zaixing. The commander who claimed to have killed dozens of Liao troops by himself was still stabbed to death with one shot in front of Yang Zaixing.

The second defeat of the official army finally made Cao Cheng famous among the dozens of rebel armies in Taihang Mountain. In the past few years, Cao Cheng also had 100,000 horses under his command, and formed an alliance with his horse friend Liu Hongzhang Yong, thus faintly becoming the leader of the Taihang Mountain Righteous Army. With people and fame, Cao Cheng finally began to establish his prestige. He no longer regards Yang Zaixing as a brother, but only as the most powerful subordinate.

Yang Zaixing didn't pay attention to Cao Cheng's changes. He's a man who knows how to repay his kindness. Although after Cao Cheng raised his army, he killed innocents indiscriminately. But Yang Zaixing believes that no matter how bad Cao Cheng is, at least he saved his mother and son. So in his life, he could only sell his life to Cao Cheng. However, Yang Zaixing and Cao Cheng are really not all the way. So when he is alone, he often feels a little dazed, a little lonely.

Ten years after his debut, Yang Zaixing finally suffered his first defeat today. Although, strictly speaking, he was not defeated. If it was really a life-and-death fight, Yue Fei might not be able to take him. But he willingly admitted defeat.

This is not that Yang Zaixing really wants to take refuge in Yue Fei, but that Yang Zaixing admires Yue Fei's deeds of defeating Jin Bing twice. He had been following Cao Cheng for several years, but he had not yet fought a large-scale battle with Jin Bing. Even in the face of a thousand-strong team of Jin Bing, Cao Cheng mostly avoided and did not fight. This made Yang Zaixing feel extremely depressed.

But this time I can finally kill it happily. Tomorrow we will have to fight each other in Zhuludu and Shagu. Although most of your own armies are infantry. But with the 800 Black Armor Army, Yang Zaixing has the confidence to kill seven in and seven out in the Shagu Army!

Thinking of this, Yang Zaixing touched the big gun in the tent, and a smile appeared on his face. This hundred-refining iron spear handed down from the ancestors once drank the blood of a lot of Liao military horses. Now, he is about to start drinking the blood of the military horses of the Jin Kingdom again.

As a descendant of the Yang family, since he was a Heng Ge horse, he defended his family and the country, and killed other races who did not dare to peep south into the Central Plains. In this way, it lives up to the name of the Yang family's broken gun.

When Yang Zaixing was thinking about it in the tent, Ma You, who was almost strangled to death by him, was saying angrily, "Damn, Brother Cao, Yang Zaixing is just a personal general, and he dares to choke my neck." I'm your sworn brother. He's pinching my neck, he's clearly pinching yours. ”

Cao Cheng was dissatisfied with Yang Zaixing's admission of defeat just now, and when he heard Ma You say this, Cao Cheng suddenly felt a wave of anger rise in his heart. Although he knew that Ma Youliu Hong was really different. Because they are all bosses on Taihang Mountain, they all have their own little abacus. But Cao Cheng was not annoyed by the appearance of his friend Liu Hong, but was a little disrespectful to Yang Zaixing. Because Yang Zaixing is just a little beggar who he Cao Cheng helped, and he can't be compared with Ma You Liu Hong.

Cao Cheng secretly said in his heart, Yang Maozi, if it weren't for Lao Tzu to help your mother and son, you would have starved to death for hundreds of years. Although I have made a lot of contributions now, I am not thin on you. But you dare to make a mockery of Qiao in front of me, do you really think that Lao Tzu can't live without you? Joke! Lao Tzu now has 100,000 soldiers and 100 generals. Without you, a brave and resourceful groom, it is nothing at all. Yes, you are brave enough to win the three armies, but now the war is not about heads-up. But for the sake of your meritorious service, I won't bother with you this time. Tomorrow's big war still needs you to be the real pioneer. But if you can't beat the Jin Army tomorrow, then don't blame me for not being emotional.

There is a kind of person in this world who gives you a piece of candy and asks you to give him your life. Although that piece of sugar is what you deserve. Cao Cheng is undoubtedly this kind of person. In the face of Ma You's deliberate provocation, Cao Cheng finally turned his dissatisfaction with Yang Zaixing into a rift. He turned his gaze to Yang Zaixing's tent, and there was a hint of coldness in his eyes.

Nothing was said all night. In the early morning of the second day, after breakfast, Cao Cheng's 30,000 troops joined Yue Fei's 8,000 cavalry and left Yanshi City and went to Zhuludu to challenge the sand and ancient quality. Zhuludu is only more than 20 miles away from Yanshi City. The scouts of the two armies have not stopped contact for several days.

The Bianliang army had just left the city for a few miles, and the scouts of the Jin army had already rushed back to the camp and told the news of the dispatch of the Song army in Shaguzhi.

"Report to the general, the Bianliang Song army has been dispatched, and now it is less than fifteen miles away from our camp."

Sha Guzhi, who was sitting in the camp drinking with the generals, asked nonchalantly, "Who is leading the army?" Centaur geometry? "No wonder the sand is lazy. Zong Ze has been in Yanshi for seven or eight days, and there is not even the slightest sign of war. Sha Guzhi also received an urgent letter from Zong Han, saying that Zong Ze might be sick. Sha Guzhi simply thought that Zong Ze was dead. Therefore, the sand and ancient quality of good wine is almost inseparable from the wine. No, I drank it again early in the morning.

"There were about fifty or sixty thousand horses, with the cavalry in front and the infantry behind. There were about 10,000 cavalry troops, and the leader was Yue Fei and Chen Kui. ”

Shao Gu Zhi threw the wine glass out, Huo Di stood up, grabbed the scout captain's neck, and shouted, "You read that right? Is it really Yue Fei here? ”

The scout captain was speechless, only nodded.

Sha Guzhi pushed the scout captain away and roared angrily, "Yue Fei, if you kill my eldest brother, I will take revenge today." The congregation will obey the order! ”

The thousands of households drinking in the tent knew that the big war was coming, and not only were they not nervous, but they all showed an excited look on their faces. He fought with Li Cheng for seven days under the Bishui Pass, because it was a siege battle, which always made these reckless men who were accustomed to wielding knives on horses feel that heroes were useless. Now that the Song army dares to go out of the city to fight against the Jurchen army, it seems that it is really a long life.

Although Yue Fei has defeated the Jin army of 30,000 households in the past two months. But in addition to Yinshu, who is a famous general, Yelu Ma Wu and Gao Qing are just ten thousand households of the Jurchen servant army. The main reason why Yinshu Ke lost to Yue Fei was that he was too light on the enemy.

But they don't take it lightly. Now the Jurchen Middle Route Army has long listed Yue Fei as the number one enemy. Once you meet Yue Fei, you will definitely go all out. Defeat Yue Fei, the southern barbarian, first, and then kill Zong Ze, the old immortal. The entire splendid Central Plains has become the bag of the Dajin warriors.

Sha Gu's lightning-like gaze looked at the generals' faces, and he said in a cold voice, "Generals, Yue Fei has repeatedly defeated our army, which has made me lose face. In today's battle, the generals must fight bravely to defeat Yue Fei's army in one fell swoop. Capture and kill Yue Fei, reward 10,000 taels of gold, and the official will be promoted to the third level. Beat the drums and go out of the camp. Let Zhang Liusun Wanhu stay in the camp and guard the pontoon bridge leading to the north bank. All the cavalry went out of the camp with me and killed the Song army. ”

"No!"

"Ali Qianhu, you lead five hundred iron guards to open the way first, and when you meet the scouts of the Song army, you will kill them all!"

"No!"
