Qi Jiguang's cold voice came from more than a hundred steps away: "Which bastard who doesn't have long eyes chews his tongue and says what kind of official and bandit family." ”
Vice General Su's heart was shocked, turned his head to look forward, and saw more than a hundred fierce and brave cavalrymen embracing a fully armed general, who had already entered his own camp here, these cavalry were all well-equipped, the armor was polished, and the skin was dark and swarthy, the strong and powerful muscles bulged high, and there was a murderous aura in his cold eyes, even Vice General Su, who was not a good general, could see at a glance that these were all elite soldiers in a hundred battles, compared to the guards around him, it was really the gap between heaven and earth.
A smile appeared on Lu Fei's lips, he raised his right fist, pressed it on his right chest, and gave a military salute: "General Qi, why did you come to my camp too." ”
Qi Jiguang laughed, and immediately pressed his chest and saluted back: "General Lu, aren't you also uninvited, it's just that you came a step late, yesterday our army just defeated the Japanese who went deep into the interior with the support of the martial arts people who held a conference in Southern Shaolin, and Mao Haifeng, the leader of the Japanese in Fujian, has also been killed by us on the spot, and the rest of the party has all been ambushed or surrendered, General Lu also came to pacify the Japanese, this time you are a step late." ”
Lu Fei didn't know about Qi Jiguang's battle against Mao Haifeng at first, and was slightly stunned: "What, the Japanese are so bold that they have gone deep into the interior of Fujian?!" ”
Qi Jiguang let out an "oh" and said, "Doesn't General Lu know?" Following the First World War in Taizhou. Zhejiang's Japanese pirates were wiped out, and the rest of the army rushed to Fujian. Fengyuan Wang Zhixu Pirates' leaked fish Mao Haifeng is the first ridge, and these people have been causing trouble in Fujian for many years. Not long ago, our army captured Mao Haifeng's base camp Hengyu Island, Mao Haifeng lost the wealth accumulated over the years, so he made a desperate bet and led all his subordinates to raid this Xinghua Mansion City, wanting to snatch the tax silver transported from Quanzhou to Jingshi and passing through Xinghua Mansion City. ”
Lu Fei nodded: "So that's the case, this Mao Haifeng is really bold enough, he didn't dare to be so rampant when Wang Zhi was here before, but ........." when he said this. frowned: "I have two things that I don't know, and I want to ask General Qi." ”
Qi Jiguang smiled slightly: "General Lu, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”
Lu Ju Zhengse said: "This is the first, the time and route of Quanzhou's tax money handed over to the Jingshi should be absolutely confidential, even our generals don't know, Mao Haifeng is the leader of the Japanese Bandits, how can he know this clearly, and the time is exactly the same?" ”
"As for this second, hasn't your General Qi already returned to Yiwu, Zhejiang Province to recruit new troops? Why is it here all of a sudden? It's .......... Lu Fei said this. Shut his mouth and stared at Qi Jiguang's eyes tightly, as if he wanted to see through his heart.
Qi Jiguang said with a straight face: "General Lu, you should know this first question. The reason why the Japanese have been repeatedly suppressed, and even escaped the encirclement and suppression of the heavy soldiers of the official army many times, is that someone has been giving them a message. As for the amount of tax silver and the route of the escort, it goes without saying that it was also revealed by these ghosts. ”
"Second question. It is better to answer, this time we have released the rumor that this tax silver has passed through Xinghua Mansion through some channels in advance. Mao Haifeng received the news, and sure enough, he was fooled, and he summoned his scattered subordinates to do this vote, and we will also calculate it, while publicizing that I Qi Jiguang and the wolf are not in harmony, I went back to Zhejiang in a fit of anger, while I led the department to secretly cross the sea to the south, lurking in the Quanzhou area, as soon as the wolf came ashore, we followed the pursuit, the wolf led the righteous men and subordinates from north to south, and our department from south to north, and broke the Japanese bandits, and the leaders of the Japanese bandits below Mao Haifeng were also wiped out by our army this time. ”
Lu Fei nodded again and again when he heard this, and was convinced: "I can't imagine that the chaos in the southeast for many years has been easily resolved by the elder brother, and overnight, tens of thousands of widows were wiped out, and the thief chief was given the head, Lu really admired it." Speaking of this, a look of envy flashed in his eyes, and it disappeared.
Qi Jiguang smiled slightly: "Qi heard early this morning that tens of thousands of horses appeared in the northwest direction, at first I was surprised, and thought that Mao Haifeng was going to connect with some bandit green forest to attack Xinghua Mansion, so I specially led my subordinates to check, and as a result, I saw that it was my Ming officer's army, so I came uninvited, and then I heard that it was your General Lu personally led the team, and I thought that you were also a reinforcement sent by Governor Hu, but just now I listened to your General Lu's tone, it seems that I don't know anything about this Japanese landing, so what is the matter with you coming back here?" ”
Lu Fei glanced at Vice General Su beside him and said: "I received an order from Shangfeng, saying that there were anti-thieves in the South Shaolin Temple, gathering thousands of warriors and plotting against him, so the general led the soldiers and horses of Nan Zhili to quell the rebellion, General Qi, you eliminated the Japanese Kou, it is really hard, this time the counterinsurgency matter, you will not work hard, our colleagues have worked together for ten years, and we will also give my brother some military achievements, how about it?" ”
Qi Jiguang was surprised: "Thousands of martial artists? Anti-thief rebellion? You shouldn't be talking about the martial arts conference in Southern Shaolin. ”
Lu Fei's thick eyebrows raised: "General Qi, do you also know about this?" ”
Qi Jiguang nodded: "General Lu, don't hide it, Lang Tian, the general of the Heavenly Wolf Army of my department, must also know that it is the former deputy commander of Jinyiwei to make the Heavenly Wolf, this Southern Shaolin Martial Arts Conference, it was the Heavenly Wolf who was invited, he wanted to announce a major event at the meeting, and he was not only my subordinate general, but also the leader of a Jianghu sect, this time in Southern Shaolin will also officially announce the establishment of his sect, the four factions of the Demon League are invited by him, and they will bring a large number of disciples to gather in Southern Shaolin, and they fought yesterday, These martial arts people have contributed a lot and killed and injured a large number of widows, in Qi's opinion, they are not gathering people to make trouble. ”
Vice General Su shouted: "General Qi, the court said that they gathered people to make trouble, naturally there is sufficient evidence, and they will not talk nonsense, these thousands of people with weapons, without greeting the court, gathered here, and also colluded with the court generals in private, General Qi, you will not because the wolf is your subordinate." Let's cover it up. ”
Qi Jiguang's tiger eyes were stunned, and his eyes were like electricity. stabbed directly at Deputy General Nasu, and scared him all over his body. didn't dare to look at each other, but only heard Qi Jiguang say sharply: "This general has a very raw face, I have never seen it by General Lu's side before, I don't know what to call it." ”
Vice General Su stammered and said: "This general, this general's surname is Su Minglaiyou, he is the town general of Xiaolingwei in Nanzhili, and this time he came with General Lu." ”
Qi Jiguang said in a tiger voice: "Xiaolingwei? Hmph, it's just a five-rank town general, our third-grade general and second-grade general are talking here. Do you have a part to interject? There are rules in the army, don't you know? ”
Su Laiyou gritted his teeth, he, the town general of Xiaolingwei, was only temporarily installed by Yan Shifan, and he was just a domestic slave guard of the Yan Mansion, this time he was specially sent to monitor Lu Fei, he said: "Although it is a military aircraft, this matter is a matter of rebellion, not to mention the last general, even ordinary soldiers in the army have the right to intervene." ”
Qi Jiguang sneered. said to Lu Fei: "So General Lu also believes in the words of this General Su, thinking that the four factions of the Heavenly Wolf and the Demon Alliance are colluding with bandits in the mountains and plotting against each other?" ”
Lu Fei said expressionlessly: "I didn't say that, but Shangfeng has such an order. Sent me to lead troops here to investigate clearly, Lu also had to follow, General Qi. This matter concerns your subordinates, please recuse yourself. ”
Qi Jiguang laughed: "General Lu." You take such an army to surround the people who are partying. In this way, no matter whether the other party is really opposed or not, it is very likely to cause a conflict and get out of control. ”
Su Laiyou laughed: "If it is really an anti-thief, how can there be a conflict, unless there is a ghost in his heart, General Lu, without further ado, we are good to march quickly, and if it is late, they may hear the wind and run away." ”
Qi Jiguang sneered: "General Lu, you have to think clearly, the number of Heavenly Wolf Commanders plus the martial arts masters of various factions is nearly 10,000, and even the tens of thousands of Japanese Guards under Mao Haifeng couldn't stop it yesterday, if these Jiangnan guards of yours really force people to rebel and let them fight hard, what is the outcome of the battle, I'm afraid I don't need to say more." ”
Su Laiyou shouted angrily: "General Qi, what do you mean by this, speaking out for the anti-thieves to intimidate our officers and soldiers?" My Ming officials and soldiers are everywhere, and the thieves will only flee from the wind, how dare they resist! You don't want to be alarmist here. ”
Qi Jiguang shouted sharply: "Shut up, it's not your turn to interject when the general speaks, General Lu, there is always a military law in the army, this mere five-grade general repeatedly interrupts the general's words, don't you care?" ”
Lu Fei gritted his teeth and said sharply: "Vice General Su, I will be talking to General Qi, it is not your turn to intervene here, and you will not retreat!" ”
Su Laiyou crooked his mouth and retreated unwillingly.
Qi Jiguang's color softened slightly, jumped off the horse, and said with a smile: "I knew that there was such a guy, and you and my brother were not easy to be open and honest." ”
Lu Fei sighed, also jumped off the horse, and walked slowly forward with Qi Jiguang, the guards of the two stood behind very consciously, leaving enough space for the two.
Lu Fei said in a low voice: "Brother Qi, I can't hide it, this time it is indeed the meaning of Xiao Ge Lao, brother, I have a military order, I can't help it." ”
Qi Jiguang nodded, and continued to say as he walked: "The junior brother himself knows the subtlety of this, so he just bluntly persuaded him, the wolf is my subordinate, I am not protecting the shortcomings, but I know very well that this person is definitely not a thief, the real thief is those who collude with the wolf and betray the country, and the wolf and the knights of the Demon Alliance fought with the wolf yesterday, how can it be a thief." ”
Lu Fei nodded: "Brother Fool also dealt with this wolf back then, and knew who he was, but the Demon League did not greet the government this time, and gathered so many people in Southern Shaolin, and the saint is very sensitive to these things today, so he will approve the performance of the elder of the small pavilion and send me to bring troops to check, I don't want to make a big move, as long as I ask the head of the four factions to go back to Nanjing with me, it will be considered a bad deal, as for the matter of the wolf, I will turn a blind eye this time, how about it?" ”
Qi Jiguang smiled slightly: "The wolf person, although he has the rank of a general, but you and I both know that he is a man in the rivers and lakes, not a person in my officialdom, and even the Jinyi guard betrayed in a fit of anger back then, this time the people from the various factions of the Demon League were invited by him, he will never leave these people alone, if you insist on forcing each other, I am afraid that it will really force the wolf to rebel, and the southeast coast has finally been able to settle down, if the four factions of the Heavenly Wolf and the Demon Alliance are also reversed, then the chaos in the world is very likely. This must not be done. ”
Lu Fei's sword eyebrows raised: "Brother Qi, please also understand my difficulties." This time, I have a military order with me, and I have to carry it out. The wolf is your person, and if I don't move this time, it can be regarded as giving you a face, but those people from the Demon Alliance, if I don't take them away, I can't explain to the above. ”
Qi Jiguang said with a smile: "I have a mention, now the martial arts conference of the Demon League is being held on the mountain, and their meeting this time is to discuss the next actions, especially to have an overall plan to deal with the newly built Black Dragon Society of the Heavenly Wolf." After yesterday's battle, I think that the four factions of the Demon Alliance, which still had a lot of vigilance against the Black Dragon Society, should no longer regard the Black Dragon Society as an opponent, although the four factions of the Demon League were invited here by Xu Ge Lao, but it was also the meaning of the wolf, he wanted to announce a few important things at this conference, Brother Lu, you and I also practiced martial arts and swords when we were young, and we can be regarded as half of the people in the rivers and lakes, and the so-called rivers and lakes are over. Why don't you and I go to this Southern Shaolin as Jianghu martial artists, see this martial arts conference with our own eyes, and then decide how to proceed next? ”
Lu Fei's eyes lit up: "This method is not bad, but if they have any rebellious remarks at the martial arts conference." Or if you are disrespectful to the emperor and discuss the government, what should you do? ”
Qi Jiguang said with a smile: "That Qi is willing to be a witness for Brother Lu." After all, Qi is also a general of the imperial court, and he has the obligation to arrest the thief. ”
Lu Fei nodded: "Very good." There is also that Su Laiyou, who is the person sent by the elder of Xiaoge. This matter can't be thrown aside, you and I better take him with me. ”
Qi Jiguang smiled meaningfully: "This is natural, but how about wronging the two of you and pretending to be Qi's entourage?" Many of those people knew me, but they were very familiar with the two of them. ”
Lu Fei thought in his heart, after all, Qi Jiguang is not a reckless wolf like a wolf, so he will not miss his future in order to shield a wolf who betrayed the brocade guard, he just said it politely, these guards under his command can't even beat the wolf, how can he deal with tens of thousands of martial arts masters, if it is from the idea of Su Laiyou, I am afraid that my life will have to be explained here first, the hero does not suffer the immediate loss, first follow Shangnan Shaolin, see what the wolf can say that day, if there are some bad remarks, then report to the court afterwards, can also make Qi Jiguang have nothing to say.
So Lu Fei smiled and said, "That qiē will be arranged by General Qi." ”
Two hours later, it was almost noon, on the mountain road in front of South Shaolin, there were still many traces left after yesterday's bloody battle, although the corpses had been dragged away and buried, and the mountain road was also sprinkled with water again, but the blood stains and small pieces of flesh and blood everywhere were still shocking, and the faint smell of blood and gunpowder in the air was not completely dissipated, Qi Jiguang, Lu Fei and Su Laiyou all changed into civilian clothes and walked along the mountain road to the top of the mountain.
At the end of the mountain road, two southern Shaolin monks in yellow clothes and sticks came up to greet them, and put them together with one hand: "Three donors, this temple has a Dharma today, and the incense is not open for the time being, please go back." ”
Qi Jiguang smiled slightly, and took out a token from his arms: "I am the hall master of the Black Dragon Society, these two are my entourage, our president Heavenly Wolf has an order, ask us to come over, and ask the two masters to make it convenient." ”
The two monks looked at each other and smiled: "It's the hero of the Black Dragon Society, then naturally there is no problem, please come in, the temple door is open, and the heads of all factions are holding meetings at the hero's platform in the main square inside." ”
Qi Jiguang returned a salute, and the three of them walked into the solemn mountain gate of Southern Shaolin, and Su Laiyou muttered in a low voice: "Behind closed doors, hmph, there must be something unseemly." ”
Qi Jiguang smiled slightly, and did not answer, after entering the temple gate, there were gradually more people, there were people wearing the costumes of disciples of various factions, and the three of them were wearing standard Black Dragon Society earthy yellow power suits, and they were all masked, and the disciples of each faction were also a little surprised, at most, they just looked at it a few times, walked a few hundred steps, and suddenly opened up in front of them, only to see that there was a huge platform under a mountain peak, with a radius of several miles, hundreds of zhang in length and width, and all around were neatly dressed disciples of various factions, each of which was based on a corner.
The Shaolin disciples in yellow and gray clothes are the most, there are more than 1,000 people, and the other Emei, Wudang, and Huashan disciples have hundreds, and the masked disciples of the Black Dragon Society wearing earthy yellow suits are also hundreds, surrounding a square platform with a length and width of more than 20 zhang, the first chair sits the master of Southern Shaolin, and on the chair on the left sits Zhi Yan, Xu Linzong, Zhan Mubai, Lin Yaoxian, and on the chair on the right sits Chu Tianshu and Li Cangxing, and behind each chair is the banner of their own faction, Two or three of the highest-ranking elders stood behind the leader.
Su Laiyou sneered: "Hmph, I'm right, they put this frame, it's obviously like a gathering of bandits." ”
Lu Fei frowned and said in a low voice: "Brother Su, be cautious, everyone has eyes to watch." ”
Su Laiyou closed his mouth, Qi Jiguang led the two of them to a bunch of yellow-clothed Mongolians, these people didn't seem surprised, and after looking at the three of them for a few times, they turned their attention to the venue.
I saw that the idiot master stood up and glanced around, the mountain wind blew his snow-white long bearded eyebrows, only to hear him full of energy, and said in a loud voice: "Today, thanks to the love of all friends in the rivers and lakes, the four factions of the Demon League have gathered together for the first time in 20 years to discuss major matters, and the heads of the two factions of the Black Dragon Society and the Dongting Gang are also coming, which is really the blessing of the righteous people.
