Zhang Yuan tied Li Qiong to the horse and came to the foot of the West Mountain with Gao Feng and Yang Hong. Seeing that Li Qiong was tied to a horse, those minions panicked one by one and had no intention of fighting. The morale of the Xinyue family army was greatly boosted, and those minions were beaten to pieces. Zhang Yuan took his brothers up the mountain, loaded all the grain, grass and money on the mountain into the car, set fire to the cottage, and took the grain and grass and Li Qiong, and happily returned to the camp all the way. Gao Feng, Yang Hong, and Zhang Yuan walked side by side, talking and laughing along the way. Li Qiong was tied to the horse and wailed.

"It's useless to beg. If Katsuo doesn't have anything to do, he will spare your dog's life; If Katsuo has three long and two short, then your head will be sacrificed to all the dead. Zhang Yuan shouted.

Li Qiong's face was as frightened as earth, and she trembled all over.

The group returned to the camp with grain and grass, Zhang Yuan, Gao Feng, and Yang Hong jumped off their horses and couldn't wait to enter the camp to see Zhang Shengnan. At this time, Zhang Shengnan was unable to return to heaven due to excessive blood loss. Zhang Shengnan saw Zhang Yuan come back with two young people and also won grain and grass, and a relieved smile appeared on his face. She took Zhang Yuan's hand and said weakly: "Brother, the supply camp - handed over to you, you have to - do it yourself." Zhang Yuan nodded tearfully.

Guo Xiaotian, Yang Tiexin, Liu Qian, and Ma Liu heard that Zhang Shengnan was injured and came to visit the condition together, because men and women were different, and they did not care directly. The brothers couldn't help but feel sad when they saw Zhang Shengnan's dying appearance. Zhang Yuan talked about Li Qiong's cold arrow and snatching grain and grass, and the brothers gritted their teeth with hatred.

"This traitor is tied to his horse, and what to do with it is to be discussed with the brothers. Brothers, this time the grain and grass have been recovered. Li Qiong was captured, thanks to the help of these two young heroes. This is Brother Gao Feng, this is Brother Yang Hong, and the two of them were sent by the marshal to find us. Zhang Yuan introduced.

When the people heard this, they turned their sorrows into joy. Zhang Shengnan's face also showed a hint of comfort, and he asked weakly: "Zipeng-did you say anything?" The situation of the battle - how? ”

"Auntie, rest assured, our army has won many battles and driven the Golden Vulture back to Huanglong Mansion. At present, the army is stationed in Jiepai Mountain, and after the marshal decides to join the division, they will go straight to Huanglong Mansion together. for I have not seen you coming. That's why we brothers were sent to look for it. Auntie rest assured. Although the two of us are young, we have been cultivating in Wudang Mountain since we were young, and although we use wooden swords and bamboo knives, we will not lose in those real swords and real swords. Gao Feng said.

Zhang Shengnan listened. Nodding with satisfaction.

Guo Xiaotian, Yang Tiexin and others called Zhang Shengnan's aunt. Doubts in my heart. couldn't help but ask about the family history of the two, Gao Feng told him about being chased and killed in Heihuling and almost dying, and being rescued by the Iron Umbrella Dao people. "My father is Dong Xian, the king of iron masks. This Yang brother and his father are Yang Zaixing. Our fathers were all good brothers of Marshal Yue, but unfortunately they were killed. Gao Feng said with a sadness in his heart.

When the brothers heard this, they suddenly realized, and they were all overjoyed.

"Our new Yue family army has two young heroes to help, like a tiger with wings. Sister-in-law, you have to hold on, we will meet with the eldest brother soon. Guo Xiaotian said.

"I-I'm afraid-no-no, everyone-brothers-good-help-Zipeng--complete-sweep-north-great cause...... I...... Die...... Blinded......" Zhang Shengnan said this intermittently, his head tilted and stopped breathing, his eyes slightly closed, like a child who had just slept.

When the brothers saw Zhang Shengnan leave, they were grief-stricken. Zhang Yuan flew out of the tent, grabbed Li Qiong and threw her on the ground, and shouted hysterically: "Li Qiong, look at it, this is thanks to you, Mrs. Marshal, my good sister and sister-in-law have returned to the West." You say, how should this account be calculated? ”

When Li Qiong saw this scene, he was immediately frightened and the three souls went out of his body, the seven spirits smoked, and his whole body was paralyzed and unconscious. Zhang Yuan splashed him up with cold water, and after Li Qiong woke up, she cried and wiped her tears and knelt down to beg for mercy.

"Kill him and use his head to honor my sister-in-law." The brothers said in unison.

"Good! He fell on the tree first, and after the burial, he used his head to represent the pig's head and sheep's head to pay tribute to his sister-in-law. Brothers, take care of the aftermath first, time waits for no one, we have to rush to Jiepai Mountain to meet the marshal. Lu Fang said.

"Tomorrow is a good day, suitable for burial, travel, and market opening, so let's choose tomorrow! After burying his sister-in-law, he set off immediately. I wonder what you brothers think? Liu Qian asked. Everyone agreed in unison. That night, Zhang Yuan, Guo Xiaotian, Gao Feng, and Yang Hong went to a nearby village, bought a good coffin, and buried Zhang Shengnan's body. Early the next morning, the three armies and the fifth watch got up, chose a sunny place on the east slope, buried Zhang Shengnan's coffin, and sacrificed Li Qiong's head to the soul. The three armies bowed down and shouted in unison: "Madam, go all the way-"

After the memorial was completed, the three armies were on the road in a mighty way, Gao Feng and Yang Hong led the way, and the people along the way heard that the new Yuejia army went north to resist Jin, and the pot pulp came to send it off. Gao Feng, Yang Hong, Guo Xiaotian, Lu Fang, Ma Liu, and Liu Qian walked in front, Zhang Yuan's supply battalion walked in the middle, and Yang Tiexin led the ironclad battalion behind the palace. The army is majestic, the army is neat, and there is no offense everywhere it goes. After several days of rapid marching, we finally arrived at Jiepai Mountain. Lu Fang ordered the three armies to set up camp with artillery and stand by in place. He and several leaders came to Wang Zipeng's camp under the leadership of Gao Feng and Yang Hong. Wang Zipeng was overjoyed to see the arrival of the new Yue family's army, and Niu Gao, Ji Qing, Yue Lei and other generals were like seeing their relatives who had been reunited after a long absence, not to mention how happy they were.

"Where's Katsuo?" Wang Zipeng looked around and suddenly asked.

"Sister-in-law—she—she—" Zhang Yuan slurred.

"What's wrong with her?" Wang Zipeng couldn't wait to ask. The brothers of the Xinyue family drooped their heads one by one, with a sad look on their faces.

Wang Zipeng seemed to realize that Zhang Shengnan had encountered an accident, he grabbed Zhang Yuan and asked anxiously, "Did you die on the road?" ”

"Big brother, it's all my fault, I didn't protect my sister-in-law, he was shot to death by Li Qiong's cold arrow. This Li Qiong was the deputy commander-in-chief of the Huaixi Army that year. Zhang Yuan knelt down and pleaded guilty, and told him about the robbery of grain and grass and the plot by Li Qiong. Niu Gao listened to the bullfight and scolded: "This damn traitor, Brother Yue was charged with 'trumped-up' because he led 50,000 soldiers and 100,000 people of the Huaixi Army to defect to the Jin State. I didn't expect it to be still harming people. This kind of person should have broken his body into thousands of pieces to vent the hatred in my heart. ”

"We've cut off his head to pay tribute to my sister-in-law." Zhang Yuan said.

Wang Zipeng remembered the bits and pieces of living with Zhang Shengnan for more than ten years, and his heart hurt like a knife. "Brother, get up! You've done your best, and it's all my negligence. Wang Zipeng helped Zhang Yuan up and said sadly.

"Uncle, we have insulted our mission, please punish it!" Gao Feng and Yang Hong knelt down to plead guilty.

"What sin are you guilty of? Two virtuous nephews, don't blame yourself. The war is imminent, and we must turn our grief into strength and strive to complete the cause of sweeping up the north as soon as possible. Wang Zipeng cheered up and said.

"Marshal, now that the two armies are in division, and the soldiers are well fed, when will we go to war?" Guo Xiaotian and Yang Tiexin asked.

"The Xinyue family army was tired, so it will take a day off tomorrow and start a war the day after tomorrow, so it must break through the boundary card level in one go. The brothers have worked hard all the way, and tonight we will prepare a little wine for everyone to catch the wind and wash the dust. All the new Yuejia army brothers drank openly. Wang Zipeng said.

"Marshal, beware of the mountain lion camels sending troops to rob the camp." Zhuge Jin reminded.

"Don't worry, I just want to lure them to come and rob the camp. Military advisor, all the horses of the Yue family army are dispatched by you, and I will have a few drinks with the new Yue family army brothers, and get drunk to relieve a thousand sorrows. Wang Zipeng smiled bitterly.

Zhuge Jin understood that Wang Zipeng must have felt uncomfortable when he lost his beloved wife, and it was normal for people to drink to relieve boredom, so he didn't care anymore. He ordered Yang Zaixing, Guan Ling, and Yan Chengfang to lead 3,000 soldiers and horses to quietly touch behind the Jin camp, and a praying mantis to catch cicadas and yellow finches followed, and took the opportunity to attack the Jin camp. Ordered Yue Lei, Niu Tong, Zong Liang, and Han Qilong to lead 3,000 men and horses to ambush in the east, and ordered Gao Feng and Yang Hong to lead 3,000 men and horses to ambush on the left. Niu Gao and several other veterans accompanied Wang Zipeng and the leaders of the Xinyue family army to drink together, and everyone talked about the past with a lot of emotion.
