It turned out that this middle-aged man was none other than him. It is the only son of Yue Fei's mentor Zhou Tong, who is more than ten years older than Yue Fei's brothers. When Yue Fei was under Zhou Dong's sect, Zhou Yi had already made a great reputation in the rivers and lakes, and he was nicknamed "A Gust of Wind". From this nickname, it is known that Zhou Yi is best at coming and going, flying eaves and walking on the wall.

Zhou Yi did not have a good impression of the Zhao and Song courts. At this point, he is the opposite of his father Zhou Tong. Zhou Tong served in the Western Army when he was in his prime, and although he was depressed, he was always loyal to the Zhao and Song courts.

Zhou Yi walked the rivers and lakes, and all the friends he made were heroes in the green forest. Although he did not pull the flag to rebel, he was also a person walking on the edge of rebellion.

Because of walking the rivers and lakes all year round, Zhou Yi and Yue Fei are not too familiar. I only know that my father often recommends Xu Yue Fei as the best disciple he has taught in his life. When Zhou Tong died, Zhou Yi stayed at home for three years, because Yue Fei went to worship every day, Zhou Yi became acquainted with Yue Fei. After all, my father had countless disciples in his life, but in addition to himself, there was only Yue Fei who was guarding his father's grave.

The two sometimes also practiced martial arts in front of Zhou Dong's grave. Zhou Yi was surprised to find that his junior brother, who had a somewhat pedantic personality, was unparalleled in the way of martial arts, and his fists and feet across the rivers and lakes could not take much advantage in front of Yue Fei's simple black tiger heart.

Zhou Dong taught Yue Fei dozens of boxing techniques, each of which was extremely exquisite. But Yue Fei selected nine styles from those dozens of boxing methods, called himself nine style piles, and practiced them repeatedly every day. Zhou Yi was a little unhappy at first, thinking that if Yue Fei continued like this, he would only lose the exquisite boxing skills left by his father.

In the competition, Yue Fei has always only attacked and not defended, attacking against attacking, no matter how clever Zhou Yi's attack angle is, Yue Fei is not a move. seems reckless, but Zhou Yi is repeatedly invincible.

Later, Zhou Yi understood that Yue Fei turned the Heshuo big gun handed down by Zhou Tong into his fist, and his nine-style pile, with a gun in his hand, is marksmanship, and without a gun in his hand, it is boxing. For example, Yue Fei's most proficient black tiger digging out of the heart is the poisonous snake out of the hole in marksmanship. The so-called taking off the gun is a fist, and turning a fist into a gun is also.

Later, Jingkang was in turmoil, the second emperor was taken into captivity, and King Kang opened the mansion of Xiangzhou and sent people to recruit Zhou Yi. Zhou Yi was dismissive of the envoy sent by King Kang. In the past two years, Yue Fei rarely heard from Zhou Yi. Unexpectedly, at his critical juncture today, my senior brother descended from heaven like a divine soldier.

After Yue Fei and Zhou Yi met, Zhou Yi began to introduce his friends to Yue Fei, who were the ten or twenty men in cloth. Yue Fei saluted one by one. Among these twenty heroes, there were only four people who impressed Yue Fei the most. One is the man with an iron fan, named Xu Jinshi. Yue Fei thought that Xu Jinshi was really a Jinshi. But Xu Jinshi directly told Yue Fei, "General Yue, don't misunderstand. I'm a big guy and I don't know a few words at all. It's just because my ancestors were all martial artists, and my father especially wanted me to be admitted to the Jinshi and glorify my ancestors. He gave me the name Jinshi. Who knows that I am a destined martial artist, and what my name is also a destined martial artist. ”

Speaking of this, Xu Jinshi himself laughed. Yue Fei immediately had a good impression of this straightforward Xu Jinshi.

Zhou Yi said that Xu Jinshi was too modest. Because although Xu Jinshi is not a Jinshi, he has studied literature since he was a child and is full of economy. Although he was not admitted to the Jinshi, in terms of knowledge, he is definitely the best among the heroes of the rivers and lakes.

Another pair that made Yue Fei remember deeply was father and son. Father Meng An, son Meng Lin, a good man from Jingdong Road.

Meng An is over sixty years old, with gray hair, but bright eyes and a fierce description. He is a free-spirited person. His son Meng Lin is in his thirties, and he is also a tall and mighty man. It's just that he doesn't like to talk and is a bit taciturn.

When Yue Fei and Meng An saw each other, they praised it, "Old Hero Meng is really the reincarnation of Huang Zhong." ”

This sentence obviously tickled Meng An's itch, he patted Yue Fei's shoulder very affectionately, laughed and said, "Nephew Yue Xian, you probably don't know, right? We've admired your name for a long time. Zhou Yi often mentions your name in front of us, saying that you are a natural talent. I didn't believe it at first, thinking that Zhou Yi was bragging. As soon as we met today, I saw that I was the reincarnation of Huang Zhong, and with your vicious eyes, I believed it. ”

Zhou Yi said beside him, "Pengju don't pay attention to Senior Meng. He likes to joke the most. When he met people, he said that he was the reincarnation of Huang Zhong. However, the courage of Meng's predecessors is really no less than that of Huang Zhong, the old man of the Three Kingdoms. ”

The fourth person who impressed Yue Fei was a monk in his fifties, whose legal name was Zhihun . Zhou Yi admires this person the most. specially warned Yue Fei, "Although Master Zhihun is a monk, he is a strange man in the world with a heart of blood and scheming. ”

Zhixun's admiration for Zhou Yi shook his head again and again, and he didn't dare to take it. "General Yue, don't listen to your senior brother's nonsense. If I were really as powerful as he said, Zhongshan Mansion would not have been captured by the Jinren. ”

Hearing Zhihun say this, Zhou Yi and the others' faces suddenly became heavy.

When Jin Bingchun went south, where the commander of the Eastern Route Army, Zong Wangbing, was within reach, the city-state of the Song State descended all the way. Only Zhan Du, the prefect of Zhongshan Prefecture on Hebei Road, recruited a regiment to train the countryside when Zongwang soldiers were in the city, and they did not surrender to the death.

Although Zong Wang used veteran soldiers, he couldn't capture Zhongshan Mansion, so he could only surround it with soldiers, and he made a detour south to Kaifeng and took Huiqin Erzong captive. In order to make Zhongshan Mansion surrender, Zong Wang deliberately let the captured Huizong stand under Zhongshan City and ordered the prefect Zhan Du to surrender.

Zhan Zhifu stood at the head of the city and said to Huizong proudly, "The minister only serves the order of Huizong of the Great Song Dynasty, but not the order of Huizong, who is captured by Jin. It alludes to the fact that Huizong has no martyrdom and is not worthy of being a king. Huizong retreated in shame.

Zong Wang was furious, and sent a total of 100,000 soldiers from the Bohai Han Er Xi and the Great Liao to besiege Zhongshan Mansion. He also informed the army to attack Zhongshan Mansion and never seal the sword.

When Zhongshan Mansion was besieged, Zhou Yi and Zhihun led hundreds of heroes to support.

It's just a pity that even if hundreds of heroes are all fighting desperately, Zhongshan Mansion is united, because the disparity between the numbers is too great, from the first month to June, after holding on for half a year, Zhongshan Mansion was still broken by the Jin soldiers. The prefect Zhan Du died. Hundreds of heroes killed only a few dozen people.

At this moment, when I heard Zhihun talk about the destruction of Zhongshan City, everyone's faces were ugly. After all, they tried their best, but they still did not avoid the fate of Zhongshan being slaughtered.

Zhou Yi fixed his mind before he said loudly, "Master, don't blame yourself. If it weren't for the exhaustion of grain and grass in Zhongshan Mansion, and the people were so hungry that they could hardly even hold weapons, how could they be attacked by the golden dogs. If it weren't for the high-ranking officials of the Great Song Dynasty who sat idly by and didn't send a single soldier in the half a year that Zhongshan Mansion held out, how could Zhongshan break the city? ”

The more Zhou Yi spoke, the more sad and angry he became, and as he spoke, he suddenly pointed to Chen Gutong opposite with his hand, "What's more, if it weren't for that Guo Jing's dog thief who used the magic of ghosts and gods, how could it make the people of Zhongshan Mansion lose their fighting spirit?" ”

It turned out that the key to the destruction of Zhongshan Mansion was not in Jin Bing, but in Guo Jing, the Puqing real person who was sealed by Huizong. According to rumors, Guo Jing, a real person in Puqing who died at the time of the destruction of Kaifeng City, actually arrived at Zhongshan Mansion a month ago and became the guest of honor of the Jin people. He did it in front of the defenders of the whole city, and invited hundreds of heavenly soldiers and generals in broad daylight, which resulted in the morale of the people of Zhongshan Mansion being demoralized, and the Jin soldiers broke the city in one fell swoop.

Zhihun Monk shook his head and said with a little self-reproach, "The people are ignorant and can be forgiven." But it was mainly because I saw the opportunity late and couldn't guess the mystery of its trick in an instant, so that Guo Jing succeeded. ”

When Yue Fei heard this, he knew that the so-called Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals invited by Guo Jing must be something similar to these golden-bodied Arhats in front of him. Sure enough, Zhi Xun pointed at the hundreds of Maitreya disciples on the opposite side, and then said, "Otherwise, there are also hundreds of golden-bodied Arhats here, why didn't Yue Tuan practice make the people lose their fighting spirit?" ”

Yue Fei hurriedly clenched his fists and said, "Master doesn't know, when they appeared, people on our side were also panicking. It was only when I caught one and fell in front of the battle that the Protector Army stabilized the morale of the army. Otherwise, maybe our Protector Army will not be able to survive the arrival of Senior Brother and Master, and will have been slaughtered by the Maitreya Sect. ”

Zhihun looked at Yue Fei with a smile and asked, "Why aren't you afraid of these golden-bodied Arhats?" ”

Yue Fei Zhengse said, "The master said with a smile. Fei has never believed in ghosts and gods. If there really is a golden-bodied Arhat in the sky, and there are immortals, how can he let the golden dog gain his will, slaughter my city, and harm my people? Since the golden dog has the ambition, it means that the ghosts and gods either do not exist, or they are also on the side of the golden dog. In that case, why should the golden-bodied Arhat and Da Luo Immortal be afraid? ”

Zhi Hun clapped his hands and smiled, "Yue Tuanlian said it well. Although I am a person in the empty door, I have always been in the empty door, and my heart is in the red dust. I have always been skeptical of the gods and Buddhas. If they really have great powers, there will not be so much injustice and so much suffering in the world. Yue Tuan Lian, it seems that your senior brother Zhou Yi is right for your advice. So does General Yue have a plan to break the Maitreya army in front of him? ”

Yue Fei glanced at the thousands of Maitreya troops on the opposite side, and said confidently, "Master don't worry. Although the enemy is several times the number of my troops, if we press it with all our might, we will definitely be able to break it. But he had to wait for the five hundred cavalry brought by Ji Qian to rest before he could attack. ”

Zhihun smiled, "Fighting a war is nothing more than a long fight and a short one. I look at the opposite side of the infantry armor is rudimentary, and General Yue can ride a broken step. ”

Yue Fei said, "Although the master's words are good, the other party also has hundreds of cavalry. If we also break the footsteps with horses, our infantry will suffer heavy casualties. ”

Zhihun said confidently, "I have a plan to make the other horseman's army do nothing." Didn't Yue Tuanlian make him know that the soil in eastern Henan was loose? All it takes is this to stop these hundreds of horsemen for a moment. ”

When Yue Fei heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Ji Qian had been waiting impatiently beside her for a long time. In the past, Ji Qian would have come up and interjected. It's just that Ji Qian seems to be a little shy today, because the woman in red has been following Ji Qian, making Ji Qian's mouth open a few times, and she is not embarrassed to come up and talk to Yue Fei. But Ji Qian did have a lot to say to Yue Fei, so she waited anxiously next to her.

Seeing that Yue Fei listened to Zhihun and arranged it properly, Ji Qian hurriedly stepped forward and hugged his fists and said, "Tell Yue Tuan to train the envoy, Ji Qian, the head of the cavalry of the People's Protector Army, was defeated by the Maitreya Sect yesterday, which insulted the prestige of the People's Army, please ask Yue Tuan to train the envoy to punish the crime according to military regulations!" ”

Yue Fei gently patted Ji Qian's shoulder and said with a smile, "Where did Brother Xian come from?" The world's impermanent general. You were defeated yesterday, and I am defeated today. If we want to punish the crime, the two of us can only punish the crime together. Besides, you led the troops to save me today, and you have already atoned. Now I'm the only one left guilty. It doesn't matter what you hurt, does it? ”

It turned out that Yue Fei didn't rush to the front when he saw Ji Qian coming, so he knew that Ji Qian must have been injured. Otherwise, with Ji Qian's character, how could Zhou Yi and his gang of heroes in the rivers and lakes be beautiful.

Before Ji Qian could answer, the red-clothed female general had already stepped forward generously, clasped her fists and said to Yue Fei, "General Yue doesn't know anything. Ji Qian was broken by the bronze that Chen bronzed, and her left arm was broken. The injury was very serious, so I didn't let him rush to the front when I charged today. ”

Yue Fei keenly heard the mystery in the words of the woman in red. Is she the one who didn't let Ji Qian rush to the front? Yue Fei knows Ji Qian too well, and has always looked down on women. One of the most commonly said sayings is that only women and villains are difficult to raise. I didn't expect this woman in red to be able to control Ji Qian. Yue Fei couldn't help but be extremely interested in the woman in red in front of him.

Without waiting for Yue Fei to ask her name, the woman in red began to introduce herself. "The little woman is like jade, a native of Mulan Village."
