Hu Yangeng reorganized the military horses and brought a commanding trap camp and a commanding light horseman. As the soldiers of the headquarters of the right army were transferred to the training compartments of each regiment to serve as the commander of the army, there were only 2,000 people left in the right army, which was officially renamed the Beiwei Army. Hu Yangeng brought out a thousand men and horses. Gao Zhong is the commander of the back army and the cavalry army, and U Song is the commander of the trapped camp.

He took a boat to Shenzhou first, and joined the 11th Regiment sent by Puliu Ru Bosheng, and the 11th Regiment Sima was Yang Jizhong. He was originally a lower-level cavalry officer of the Fuzhou Army, good at using a big gun, and failed to rescue Taiyuan with a fold, so he had to fall into the northern mountains of Caoyan and make a living by robbing bandits with a group of routed soldiers.

At the Monk Cave Conference, Yang Jizhong joined the Red Turban Army and was under the command of Puliu Ru Bosheng, because he had fallen grass in the mountainous area of Yanbei and was very familiar with the terrain of Yanmen and Daibei, so Puliu Ru Bosheng sent him.

When Yang Xuzhong saw Hu Yangeng, he knelt down on one knee and held a seal. Hu Yangeng saw that it was the seal letter of the envoy of Tianxiong Town. Last time, when Puliu Ru Bosheng went to Cangzhou, he wanted to hand over the seal letter to Hu Yangeng, but Hu Yangeng didn't ask for it, and this time he asked Yang Jizhong to bring it over.

At present, 3,500 people under Huyan Geng formed a northbound detachment, boarded the ship in Shenzhou, and marched along the Hutuo River. After passing through Shenzhou, the Hutuo River turns to the northwest in its upstream direction, passes through the northeast of Zhending, and enters the Taihang Mountains.

Zhending is now occupied by the Jin soldiers, but Wanyan Liduo's department has suffered heavy losses, and the main force has returned to the outside of the fortress to recuperate. Hu Yangeng's subordinates even brought horses, grain, grass and ordnance, a full sixty boats. Such a huge fleet is by no means the hundreds of gold soldiers and thousands of soldiers who are really determined to stay behind dare to stop it.

Huyan Geng was also not troubled, and the fleet quickly passed through the area occupied by the Jin soldiers and entered the Taihang Mountains.

Huyan Geng passed too quickly, and the Jin soldiers did not have time to deploy defenses along the river, and the northward detachment reached the periphery of Wutai County, Daizhou.

The northbound detachment got on and off the boat on a river beach outside Wutai County, the wheelbarrow pushed the military grain and grass, and the soldiers carried weapons and armor on their backs, lined up in four columns, stayed overnight, and came to the Wutai Mountain Temple. Mount Wutai is a famous Buddhist holy place in China. There are more than 300 temples scattered on the mountain, with a total of thousands of monks.

Huyan Geng first sent two personal soldiers up the mountain to send a letter to the abbot of Puji Temple, and agreed to visit the mountain tomorrow.

The next day, when Hu Yangeng was about to arrive at the Wutai Mountain Temple, he saw a sea of people on the square outside the temple, flags and flags, drums and music, thousands of monks dressed in Xiang clothes, holding sheng flutes and gongs and drums, lined up in a neat line. They are so grand, are they doing something big?

When Hu Yan Gengzheng was puzzled, the soldiers who stood in front of him came to report that the monks had heard that the imperial court officials and soldiers were going to stay here, and they were lining up to welcome them. Hu Yangeng arranged the team to rest on the hillside, and then he and Yang Jizhong, Gao Pet, and U Song came to the square with more than a dozen people, and the drums rang out in unison.

The bell rang again, and the presiding monk folded his hands. Hurried to greet him, accompanied Hu Yangeng through the ranks of the band, and came to a row of chairs to take a seat.

The old host said excitedly: "I have heard the name of the general for a long time, the great victory in Panxiu Valley has vibrated Huaxia, the poor monk has heard about it for a long time, and now it is an honor to witness the dignity of the face" "Let's say it, let the little monk send the tea, please Hu Yangeng and his party to taste.

"I'm disturbed, I'm causing trouble to the master, Hu Yan Geng also followed the Buddhist etiquette, folded his hands, and said, "I Hu Yan Geng went to Wutai Mountain to fight against the gold thief, and I hope the master can help me." Fight the enemy together. ”

The host said, "My Buddha is compassionate, and I am talking about purifying sentient beings. Now Suo Lu, destroy me Zhonghua, and go against the sky. We are monks, but we were not born, and it is our duty to support the imperial court officials and soldiers in the war of resistance. If there is any difficulty in calling the general, he will respond to every call, ask for people, ask for money, and be willing to do his meager efforts. ”

The two talked very harmoniously, and in the afternoon, the old host invited Hu Yangeng and his party to have a meal. After the meal, the old host said: "General Hu, the monks on the mountain have long admired the king, please ask the general to give a lecture to the monks."

Hu Yangeng thought, what do I have to say to you monks? Bodhi Tree Spiegel? But at the moment, it can't be pushed back and let the monks down.

Just as he was about to speak, but he didn't know what to call these monks, he finally said:

"Masters." When he spoke, there was a small commotion. Master is a very honorable title, and most of the monks present cannot be called Master.

"The masters are familiar with the classics and know the reason, so it's not my turn to say anything as a soldier. But the Suolu have already occupied Taiyuan, conquered Longde, and reached Bianliang in the south and Xiongzhou in the north, all of which are being poisoned by Suolu. I asked my masters to follow me down the mountain, not to kill the enemy, but to help and comfort the people in need. ”

At this time, an old monk stood out on the side, looking at which one of the bushes on Wutai Mountain was the presiding officer, and the old monk said: "The young monks on the mountain will all go down the mountain to fight with the gold thief." The old man thought that this was against the compassion of the monks. We and the monks have no quarrel with the world, whether the government is a Song or a Jurchen, we are all dedicated to worshipping the Buddha and do not ask about world affairs. ”

"Whether the people under the mountain are alive or dead has nothing to do with the master?" Hu Yangeng asked, "The fields of the hundred miles around Wutai Mountain are all the fields of the major conglinates, and they are occupied by the Jin people, and they have nothing to do with the master?" ”

After blocking the old monk back, Hu Yangeng called on the monks to join the army: "Wutai Mountain has a long history with the official army. Not to mention that Taizong Zhenzong rescued my Hedong soldiers during the years, even now under my Huyan Geng, there are also nearly 100 Wutai disciples, and Master Zhishen of Wutai Mountain was even named the U section doctor by the imperial court, and the regiment practiced Sima. ”

Hu Yangeng pulled out another person from the entourage beside him: "Which of you knows him?"

A monk in the audience said, "Treasure monk?"

"I haven't been seen for more than a year, and I went to the army."

"The treasure monk who killed one person and saved one person?"

When Lu Zhishen went from Wutai Mountain to rescue Fenzhou, he took the treasure monk, a wandering monk. Baoqi has strong medical skills, chivalrous liver and courage, and has treated many sick monks on Wutai Mountain, and many people know him.

The treasure monk spoke loudly about his experience in the army, he mainly served as a medical officer under Huyan Geng, and now he is also a Lang official of Zhengbapin.

On the spot, hundreds of monks asked to join the imperial army. Hu Yangeng and the old host negotiated, except for the 300 officers and soldiers who participated in the imperial court, the rest sent people to organize themselves into self-defense regiments, practice swords, guns and sticks, and be ready to join the official army at any time.

At the invitation of the old host, Hu Yangeng took his entourage to stay in Puji Temple for a few days. In the past few days, Hu Yangeng sent out to the Flying Fox Pass in the northwest and Yanmen Pass in the south to listen to the situation.

There are not many Jin soldiers stationed in Wutai County, but if Wutai County is defeated and the Jin soldiers in the north and south are alarmed, it will be quite troublesome.

Thinking of this, he raised his head and said, "But we are here, there are only 3,500 people, the north is Datong Road in Xijing, Jinguo, where heavy troops are stationed, and Taiyuan in the south is garrisoned by the Jin soldiers. What are the ideas for ranking? ”

Yang Jizhong said: "I used to be a horse thief in Daizhou, Yanbei, and I knew that the golden soldiers on the north and south sides of Yanmen Pass, when people talked, it was called sweeping their own snow."

"Everyone sweeps the snow in front of the door?"

"Yes, that's it, we robbed the Jin Bing Brigade in the south of Yanmen Pass, as long as we cross Yanmen Pass, the gold thieves in Taiyuan will not chase. We were forced to be in a hurry in the north, and we ran to the south of Yanmen Pass, and the north did not chase. ”

Hu Yangeng pointed to the map and said: "Yanmen Pass is the key pass of the Great Wall. It is bordered by Datong in the north, Xinkou and Taiyuan in the south, Ningu Biguan in the west, Bauhinia Pass and Baoma Pass in the east. Yanmen Pass is the pass that the soldiers must fight, and they look at Xinkou and Taiyuan to the south. The cash army has occupied Yanmen Pass, so it is also a pass that I must fight. As long as you take the Yanmen Pass, you can easily maneuver from north to south. ”

The Jin soldiers were stationed at Yanmen Pass for a while, but as the rebel army north of Taiyuan gradually dispersed, the Jin soldiers at Yanmen Pass also followed south to plunder.

"If the Jin soldiers near Yanmen Pass are eliminated, we can be quiet for a long time, and there will be no worries about rescuing Flying Fox." Hu Yangeng pointed at Yang Jizhong, "You are responsible for this battle." ”

According to the villagers' reports, there is a baggage team of Jin Bing, which has been coming and going to Yuanping County for a long time, which is the largest group of Jin Bing in the vicinity. Yang Jizhong led the troops to arrive at the villages of Dachang and Yongxing in the southwest of Yuanping. After waiting for a few days, I saw hundreds of Jin soldiers escorting thousands of people, driving hundreds of carts to Xinkou

Yang Jizhong said: "The gold thief is so careless. There are no sentries in front of or behind, we have to teach them a good lesson and give them a dismount."

"Yes, let the golden thief taste the power of my iron-blooded Great Song," Yang Jizhong's pikeman named Yutian Yuan clenched his fists and said. After Puliu Ru Bosheng was the envoy of Tianxiong, the basic equipment of his red scarves, such as spears and straight knives, was basically completed. Coupled with the equipment supplemented by Huyan Geng, Yang Jizhong's 11th Regiment is a standard regiment equipped with 300 wheelbarrows.

In the middle of the night, the sky was dark, the gold thieves were in their dreams, Yang Jizhong gave an order, the whole regiment launched a fierce attack on the Jin army, the sound of rockets burning, the explosion of grenades and the sound of soldiers shouting to kill the sky, frightened the gold thieves to flee with their heads in their hands. At dawn, they swept the battlefield, eliminated more than 300 gold thieves, and captured 200 heavy wagons.

Then they attacked the Jin army in Weicun and killed more than 50 gold thieves.

However, the battle north of Xinkou alarmed the Jin soldiers, and the reaction of the Xinzhou Jurchen Jin Shi Jiannu was surprisingly fast, and he led his own headquarters of 2,000 men to pursue him.

The Jin soldiers came violently, Hu Yangeng was a little hesitant, two thousand Jurchen Meng'an, it was still relatively difficult to deal with, and the rockets and other materials were a little less, and there was no way to replenish them. He was also tasked with rescuing Ma Kuo. If it is really like what Yang Jizhong said, as long as he hides to the north of Yanmen Pass, the Jin soldiers will no longer pursue, then it is a good choice to retreat north from Yanmen Pass.

But if you retreat like this, isn't it showing weakness in front of Jin Bing? What will the monks of Wutai Mountain think of themselves and this army?
