Chapter 16: The Eight Directions (Part II)

Weizhou, the camp of the golden soldiers. Pucha Shi's slave sat on the handsome tent with a golden sword, looked at the Xiangzhou envoy with cannibalistic eyes, and asked loudly, "You said that Gao Qingyi was actually picked by an unknown Song general. Then your general Yelu not only did not dare to avenge Gao Qing's descendants, but hung up the exemption card and closed the camp. Did Jeruma 5 grow up eating? The Song soldiers actually scared him into a rabbit. It's really damaging to my prestige. When I arrived in Xiangzhou, I had to cut this Khitan dog with one knife! ”

Yelu Mawu's cronies knelt in the handsome account, and they didn't dare to raise their heads to look directly at Pucha Shi's slave. This messenger knows how powerful Pucha Shi's slaves are. Don't look at Pucha Shi's slave and his own master, Yelu Mawu, just a 10,000 household. But Yelu Mawu didn't even dare to straighten his waist in front of Pucha Shi's slaves. Pucha Shi's slave is a standard Jurchen, because of his repeated meritorious services in the war to destroy Liao, he was beaten by Jin Taizu and married a daughter to him. During that time, Pucha Shi's slaves were in the limelight for a while.

Now the gold lord Wanyan Wu begs to buy although he doesn't like Pucha Shi's slave very much, he still lets Pucha Shi's slave hold heavy troops and sit in Weizhou. Now in the entire Hebei West Road, only Huaizhou Weizhou is openly occupied by the Jin people. Weizhou can be said to be a nail nailed by Jin Guo on Hebei West Road, and its strategic location is extremely important. Although Pucha Shijia Nu knew that he had fallen out of favor in the court, he still stayed here conscientiously, and by the way, he monitored the two wastes of Yelu Ma Wugaoqing descendant.

Yes, in the eyes of Pucha Shi's slaves, except for the Jurchen heroes in the world, everyone else is a waste. The Liao people are waste, and the Song people are even more waste. Now the more wasteful Song people actually killed Gao Qingyi and defeated Yelu Ma Wu, which made Pucha Shijianu very unhappy. You must know that Yelu Mawu is now a Dajin general, how can he be defeated by the Song people?

The slaves of the Pucha Shi family are tall, the width of their shoulders is at least twice that of ordinary people, and their square mouths are large, like tigers. Seeing the messenger trembling on his knees, Pucha Shijianu felt that it was not interesting to be angry with this little person.

At this time, another big man sitting in the handsome tent asked, "Messenger Wuna, raise your head and tell this prince, what is the name of the Song general?" ”

It was a Jurchen with pale blue eyes sitting next to the Pucha Shi slave. This Jurchen man was not wearing armor, and he did not look like a general on the battlefield, but like a strategizing literati. But his eyes were eagle-like eyes. The messenger didn't know who this Jurchen person was, who could sit on an equal footing with Pucha Shi's slaves. But he knew that this person's identity must be unusual, so he hurriedly said, "Then Song will make a big gun with a surprisingly long pole, and say what is it called Yue Fei." ”

"Sure enough, it's him!" The Jurchen nobleman sighed, "I guessed it was him." ”

Pucha Shi Jianu asked curiously, "Thirteenth brother, isn't this Yue Fei very famous?" How I haven't heard of this person. ”

This Jurchen is Mr. Jin who fought with Yue Fei in Yingtianfu. This person is the head of Daikin's espionage. He is the younger brother of Zong Han and the son of the minister of the country. In terms of the ranking of the family, it is exactly the thirteenth. So he often calls himself the Golden Thirteen.

As the head of Daikin's espionage, Mr. Kim can be said to have done an excellent job. It is precisely because of Mr. Jin's accurate intelligence that Dajin was able to destroy the Song Dynasty without much effort. Therefore, Mr. Jin is highly valued by Chief Kim.

His espionage work has always been smooth, and he has never met an opponent at all. In the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, as long as he wants to subvert the opponent, he will definitely not live for a month. As long as he wants to disturb the city, it will definitely be a river of blood. The only time I missed was in Yingtianfu. Not only did it defeat Amitabha Buddhism, which had great potential for destruction, but it also caused the Jurchen intelligence personnel planted in Yingtian to lose everything.

Therefore, Jin Shisan has always been haunted by this failure, and has always regarded Yue Fei as a big trouble for Jurchen in his heart. Back in Yanjing, Jin Shisan informed Zong Han Zongwang and others about Yingtian. Zong Han didn't think much of his younger brother valued Yue Fei so much. Only Zong Wang, who had an extremely strong sense of the overall situation and an extremely sensitive sense of smell on the battlefield, thought that Yue Fei was a threat.

It's a pity that Zong Wang can't immediately send a large army to Yingtian. Because it was a hot day, the Jurchen soldiers from the bitter cold land hid in the camp tents all day long, and they were so hot that they stuck out their tongues. This has to make them wear armor, and it is estimated that if they can't reach the Central Plains, half of them will die of heat.

Jin 13 also knew that it was not a good time to send troops. But he has been paying close attention to Ying Tianfu's intelligence. When he learned that Yue Fei had left Yingtianfu and went to Taihang Mountain to find his mother, he immediately mobilized the intelligence officers lurking in Taihang Mountain to find his mother-in-law, preparing to find his mother-in-law before Yue Fei. On the one hand, he rushed to Huaizhou from Yanshan Mansion day and night, preparing to annihilate Yue Fei's cavalry in one fell swoop north of the Yellow River with the help of the Jurchen warrior Pucha Shijianu.

Facing Pucha Shijianu's inquiry, Jin Shisan first ordered the Xiangzhou messenger to get out of the tent, and then said with a straight face, "General Pucha, although this Yue Fei is not well-known, it is because he was a Xiangzhou peasant two years ago. But I'm sure he'll be famous soon. If we can't settle him under the city of Xiangzhou. ”

Pucha Shijianu cracked the tiger-like giant mouth, and laughed, "Since this is the case, then we will kill him under Xiangzhou City, so that he will never have a chance to be famous in the world again." ”

Seeing that Pucha Shi Jiannu still didn't take Yue Fei in his eyes, Jin Shisan hurriedly reminded, "General Pucha must not underestimate this person. This person is not the same kind of person as the Song Jiang we have met. The news that this person killed Gao Qingyi must have spread in the Central Plains. If you don't kill him, he will create his own momentum. Since he only has a few hundred cavalry, we should use the power of the goshawk to fight the rabbit and dispatch a large army to destroy it in one fell swoop. ”

Pucha Shi Jianu was a little unimpressed by Jin Shisan's solemn care about a Song person. But he knew that Jin Shisan's status in the DPRK was respectful, so he didn't want to refute it directly. slapped the table in front of him with a big hand like a fan, only to hear a click, and the tabletop a few inches thick was smashed by Pucha Shi's slave with a palm. Pucha Shijianu raised his hand a little embarrassed, and said with a smile, "Thirteenth brother, do you think it's enough for us to send a thousand cavalry?"

Jin Thirteen shook his head.

Pucha Shijianu said, "How about dispatching 2,000 cavalry?" ”

Jin 13 still shook his head.

Pucha Shijianu's eyes widened, and he asked in a loud voice, "You're not going to let me send three thousand troops to deal with five hundred Song Qi, are you?" ”

Jin 13 stretched out five fingers and shook them in front of Pucha Shi's slave. "General Pucha, if we want to be foolproof, we have to send five thousand troops. And these 5,000 troops, I hope they are all my Jurchen elite soldiers. ”

Pucha Shi's slave almost jumped from his seat. His eyes widened and he asked in disbelief, "Old Thirteen, what do you mean?" You want me to send 5,000 elite soldiers to deal with 500 Song cavalry. If this reaches the ears of Zongwang and them, they will not be laughed to death. This Yue Fei is just a mud leg who hasn't fought a few battles, what's the use of being brave? Did we kill fewer warriors when we destroyed Liao? I will never send an army of 5,000. In my opinion, as long as you send five hundred cavalry, you can destroy Yue Fei. Don't forget that there are tens of thousands of troops under the city of Xiangzhou. It's just that Yelu Ma Wu is too wasteful, and he was frightened by that Yue Fei and didn't dare to fight. Otherwise, why would you come to ask for help? ”

Seeing that Pucha Shi's slave still did not change his arrogance, Jin Shisan's face suddenly sank, and he reached out and took out a secret edict written by Wanyan Zongwang from his arms. After the secret order was completed, Yan Zongwang directly ordered all the slaves of the Pucha Shi family to obey Jin Shisan's dispatch, and everything was focused on destroying Yue Fei.

When Pucha Shijianu saw the secret order, he immediately relented. No matter how arrogant he was, he didn't dare to disobey Zongwang's orders. Originally, he only wanted to send a thousand households to Xiangzhou. However, Jin 13 ordered him to select the most brave and warlike 5,000 people from the 10,000 mature women stationed in Weizhou, and then let Shi Jianu lead the team with him to Xiangzhou.

After Ying Tianfu's two failures, Jin 13 has already understood his shortcomings. What he is good at is intelligence work, and it is really not good for him to command the army to fight on the battlefield. Although Pucha Shijianu was arrogant, he was also an old man, and he also had a great merit of taking more than a dozen personal soldiers to the Liao Emperor's Chinese army when he destroyed Liao. Therefore, Jin 13 believes that among the generals left in the Central Plains by the Jin State, only Pucha Shi's slaves can compete with Yue Fei.

Pucha Shijianu handed over the defense of Weizhou to his cousins Pu Charan and Pu Chading, and then ordered 5,000 elite soldiers, gritted his teeth and killed Xiangzhou. On the way, he thought that he must capture that Yue Feisheng alive, and then crush his bones and scatter ashes.

But Pucha Shi Jianu didn't expect that he thought that Yue Fei was bold and didn't know whether he was alive or dead, but there were people who were more courageous than Yue Fei. As soon as Pucha Shijianu's army left the camp, a civilian army of hundreds of people took a small road and tightly embellished him.

The leader of the People's Army was six feet tall, his face was black and red, his palms were thick, and his calluses were almost an inch thick. The armor he wore was covered in brick ash, as if he had just crawled out of a cave. In his hand, he held a long knife of astonishing weight. Other people's big knives weigh at most thirty or forty catties, but his long knives are the same as the legendary Qinglong Yanyue Knife, weighing eighty-four catties.

The long knife and armor weighed at least more than a hundred pounds, but the leader of the people's army didn't seem to feel their weight, and he walked like a fly, throwing the people's army behind him dozens of meters away.

The equipment of this group of hundreds of people is extremely simple, except for the leader who is wearing a complete step armor, most of the others are wearing broken leather armor, and some do not even have any leather armor, and their upper bodies are naked. The weapons in their hands are also varied, with swords, guns, sticks, and swords. And these weapons were clearly made by a skilledly clumsy blacksmith, and the iron rods were not smooth at all, and the knives were beaten into spears, and the guns into swords. But the eyes of these people burned with a raging fire of revenge.

Although they are not as brave as the leader, in order to avenge the destruction of their family, they have long since stopped caring about their lives.

Walking to the bend of Tiger Ridge, the leader of the People's Army suddenly stopped. After the other militias followed, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the official road under the ridge and said loudly, "Brothers, if that old dog from Pucha Shijianu wants to go to Xiangzhou, he must pass through here." We are here to lay in ambush. When he arrived, I saw that Fu Qing cut the old dog with a knife to avenge the villagers. ”

Most of the militia just nodded silently. But from the way they looked at Fu Qing, they also understood that they had put the hope of revenge on Fu Qing. After all, the 5,000-strong army of the Jin people is not something that their hundreds of people can deal with. Only by giving Jin Ren a cold guard can it be possible for Fu Qing to kill the vicious dog of Pucha Shi's slave, just like Guan Yunchang killed Yan Liang. Only a few of the militia clasped their fists and said, "Everything depends on Brother Fu's bravery." ”

Fu Qing looked at the avenue under the ridge again, thinking about how to jump down and kill the Pucha Shi slave with one knife when the golden dog army arrived. As for how to escape, it was not in Fu Qing's consideration at all.

Of course, it is not in the consideration of these people's armies. They all have only one thought, to kill Pucha Shi's slaves and avenge their families who were killed a while ago.
