Chapter Seventy-Two: The Golden Soldiers Invade the Territory
It is said that Wang Zipeng and Yang Zongde were chatting in the grass house, when suddenly a middle-aged man came in a hurry, panting.
Yang Zongde saw that the man's face was pale and sweating, and he couldn't help but ask, "Brother, look at your hurried appearance, what's wrong?" ”
"No, it's not good, under the mountain, a group of golden soldiers, one by one, fierce and vicious, kill people when they see them, rob things when they see them, kill people, set fires, no evil, don't do it." The man said breathlessly.
"Is that really the case?" Yang Zongde couldn't believe his ears.
Wang Zipeng stood up and came to the hillside behind the house to look down the mountain, only to see the smoke billowing under the mountain and the fire soaring to the sky.
"These Jin soldiers are too bold and reckless, they are unscrupulous in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty. Brother Yang, what should I do? Are we sitting idly by? "Wang Zipeng was filled with indignation, and he couldn't wait to go down the mountain immediately and fight with the Jin people."
"Brother, don't act recklessly. There are so many Jin soldiers, how can the two of us deal with it? It is better to go to Shaolin Temple and ask the abbot to send monks down the mountain. Yang Zongde said.
"Uncle Abbot just went to Wutai Mountain today, and these golden soldiers are here, are they unpredictable?" Wang Zipeng was curious.
"Maybe they've been hiding under the mountain to find out the news, maybe Master Zhicheng has been plotted by them." Yang Zongde speculated.
"No, my master is strong in martial arts, and those golden soldiers can't help him." Wang Zipeng said.
"Two fists are hard to beat four hands, not to mention that the golden soldiers are overwhelming. Maybe it's more than lucky. Yang Zongde said.
Wang Zipeng wasn't sure.
"When Jin Bing arrives at Shaomu Mountain, there will definitely be a disaster in Shaolin Temple, I have to go back and report the news quickly." Wang Zipeng didn't dare to think about it, he said goodbye to Yang Zongde, and hurriedly went to the Shaolin Temple.
When he came to Shaolin Temple, Wang Zipeng found Master Huineng, the old abbot with the highest prestige in Shaolin Temple, and reported the situation under the mountain. Master Huineng listened and asked Wang Zipeng to ring the alarm.
The bell shook the Shaolin Temple, and all the monks came to the door of the Daxiong Treasure Hall to listen to the abbot's instructions.
"Fellow Shaolin disciples, at present, the Jin soldiers are raising troops to invade the realm, and they are doing the extermination of the criminal department at the foot of the Shaolin Mountain, and the Shaolin Temple is in danger. For the sake of the foundation of Shaolin Temple for hundreds of years, I propose: first retreat to the back mountain, avoid its edge, and then wait for the opportunity to take revenge. Master Zhicheng went to Wutai Mountain today, and when he left, he asked me to preside over the affairs of Shaolin Temple. Now, the situation is changing, and we can't help but make contingencies.
If you have any good proposals, just say it, as long as you can keep the Shaolin Temple. Master Huineng said.
"Defend the mountain gate, don't let the golden soldiers enter the Shaolin Temple." Someone said.
"Set up an ambush in the mountains and take them by surprise." Another person said.
"In my opinion, knowing oneself and knowing that the other side will win all battles, first send people down the mountain to find out the situation, grasp the enemy's movements before making a decision. Maybe the Jin soldiers were just some stragglers passing under the mountain, and they had no intention of going to the Shaolin Temple. The law enforcement monk said.
"What the junior brother said is not unreasonable, we have to make two preparations, on the one hand, we will send people down the mountain to investigate the enemy's situation, and on the other hand, we will make preparations for prevention. Zipeng, you and Senior Brother Kongse have a last trip, pay attention to secretly probe, safety first. Check back as soon as the news is confirmed. Master Huineng said.
"Yes." Wang Zipeng and Kongse agreed and hurriedly went down the mountain.
At the bottom of the mountain, they hide by a pile of straw on a mile road from your village, quietly waiting for their opportunity.
Suddenly, two golden soldiers chased a young woman towards him. The woman's hair was unkempt and her clothes were scattered, and she looked like she had been humiliated by the Jin. The woman walked hurriedly, walked past the straw, and suddenly saw two people hiding in the straw, she didn't dare to slack off, and still hurried forward.
The two golden soldiers passed by the straw, only chasing the woman, and did not notice that there was someone behind the straw.
Wang Zipeng and Kongse saw that the opportunity came, and the two of them shot at the same time, knocked the two golden men unconscious, and dragged them behind the straw to hide.
The woman didn't see the Jin soldiers chasing after her, and when she looked back, she saw a monk and a young man subduing the two Jin men. She let out a long breath and walked to the front woods to secretly observe Wang Zipeng and Kongse.
Wang Zipeng and Kongse stayed next to the straw for a while, and they didn't see a large number of golden soldiers coming, so they were relieved.
"Senior brother, if we take these two golden soldiers to the mountains for interrogation, won't everything be clear? Why bother? Wang Zipeng said.
"That's right. Let's go, let's go into the mountains. Sora said, picked up the golden soldier and walked into the mountains.
Wang Zipeng also carried another golden soldier and followed.
The two of them trotted all the way to the dense forest. It's secluded, it's silent, and the terrain is complicated.
Kongse threw the golden soldier to the ground, and the golden soldier came back to the sun and was shocked to see a monk standing in front of him.
"You are a Shaolin Temple monk? I have no grievances with you, why did you kidnap me? Hurry up and release me, or we will wash the Shaolin Temple in blood. The man said.
"How many of you came? Why did you burn, kill, and plunder in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty? Sora asked.
"We are just a small force that has come to explore the way, our army will move south, and when the time comes, our army of hundreds of thousands of kings, four kings, and two generalissimos will level the Great Song Dynasty. If you know the times, let me go and go to our Dajin country. Our wolf lord is a good emperor who loves and cherishes talents, and is thousands of times stronger than the Great Song Dynasty. The man said with a swagger.
"It's really unashamed, your Jin country is a barren land, few things and sparsely populated, how can it compare to my big Song Dynasty, rich in products and talents. You'd better be honest and explain well, I'll spare your dog's life, and if you don't come to your senses, I'll teach you to go to Hades immediately. Empty color said.
When the man heard this, he kept his head held high, and said nothing.
Wang Zipeng put the man on the ground, and after a cup of tea, the man woke up leisurely.
"Are you awake? What do you think? Does your head still hurt? Wang Zipeng asked with a concerned look.
"Who are you? Where is this? Why don't I know you? The man asked inexplicably.
"I'm a passer-by, and when I saw you lying on the ground, I carried you here for treatment. You're from Jinguo! Look at your outfit and you're still a soldier. Why are you here? This is the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, don't you want to live? Wang Zipeng asked tentatively.
"Alas, we are only at the mercy of our superiors. Some time ago, the spies sent to Bianjing came back and reported: Emperor Qinzong of the Great Song Dynasty succeeded to the throne, and he had no opinions, and everything was subject to the wishes of Zhang Bangchang and others. The Great Song Dynasty court no longer had loyal ministers and generals. It was a good opportunity to attack the Great Song Dynasty. Those of us who are soldiers don't actually want to fight, it's just the will of the wolf lord and the marshal's orders, and we have to listen to them. The man said with a long sigh.
"How many people have you invaded this time?" Wang Zipeng asked.
"We were just pawns crossing the river, hundreds of people throwing stones and asking for directions. Our army of 300,000 people attacked the Great Song Dynasty in three ways, and each of the three roads had a commander. The middle route was led by Yelu Yujian, the eastern route army was led by Yelu Zongwang, and the western route army was led by Yelu Zonghan. There were 100,000 people on each road. We are the pioneers in the middle and have been ordered to explore the way. The man said.
Wang Zipeng was shocked when he heard this.
"The 300,000 horses of the Jin Kingdom suddenly invaded, and the Great Song Dynasty annihilated the ministers and deceived Sheng Cong. The army is happy to be comfortable, and officials everywhere spend all day drinking and singing. Who will resist the Tiger Wolf Army? Wang Zipeng was anxious when he thought of this.
