The starry night is silent, and the lonely moon is in the sky.

Suddenly, a group of people and horses crashed out from behind the hill, and the momentum was amazing. Seeing that there were as many as 100 horsemen in this team, the dozens of blazing torches in the ranks were forced to live on this dark official road and grab a piece of light.

Suddenly, a white-clothed scholar at the front of the team raised his hand, slowed down his horse, turned around and said loudly: "Rest for a while, and then hurry again when the morning is bright!" ”

I only heard the sound of the herald in turn, and someone passed the order of the master of the village to the ears of every brother in the team.

Wang Lun rode out of the queue and came to the side of the road, then jumped off the horse, looked at the BMW with a heavy snort, and reached out to stroke the mane on the back of its neck.

"It's good to rest and get off, brother! At our speed, we should set off after dawn, and we should be able to catch up with General Lin at about noon! ”

Huang Xin followed Wang Lun, the owner of the village, and led the northbound BMW behind him to the side of the road, and looked back from time to time to check the situation of the car, only to see that the BMW had been galloping for a long time, but it did not show any fatigue, but it seemed that there was still some unfinished intentions, as if he wanted to show his ability in front of the new owner.

Qin Ming's reaction was the same, and he also looked back at his BMW with a smile, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: What a rare good horse! Thinking that he is a general, how can anyone not love horses? To say that he is also the identity of the head of the soldiers and horses of a state, the horse he rode in Qingzhou in the past can be regarded as one of the best horses in a hundred, but if you want to compare it with the BMW in front of you, it can't be compared.

It is really worthy of being a horse from the north, Qin Ming heard that this horse was specially selected by the Cangzhou Chai officials and given to Wang Lun's brother. This kind of rare BMW is naturally hard to find, it is said that there are only more than 30 horses in total, originally their own family went up the mountain late, and their duty is not such a good horse, how do they know that Zhu Gui and Zhu Fu brothers have to exchange horses with themselves and Huang Xin, saying that it is a waste to use such a good horse. made the two very embarrassed, and the brocade leopard Yang Lin, who had to change horses with Shi Jin after learning from them, everyone pushed back and forth, and finally saw that they were really sincere, and with Wang Lun's approval, everyone was very kind, so they had to be ashamed.

With this encounter, these leaders of the horse army who were given the horses were grateful for the brotherhood on this Liang Mountain. But it deepened a feeling.

"Dalang, Guizhai was originally not far from Fangzhou (at this time, it should be called Baokang Army, because of the original name of the Water Margin, it is still called Fangzhou, that is, today's Shiyan Fang County), have you ever heard of Wang Qing who fell on the grass on the Fang Mountain?" Wang Lun saw that Shi Jin and Zhu Wu were also following, and turned around and asked. Thinking about how he could not be familiar with this Fangzhou, he was on the edge of his hometown in his previous life.

Shi Jin and Zhu Wu glanced at each other, and they were both smiling. But I heard Shi Jin reply: "That guy is dreaming of yellow sorghum, thinking about what he wants to be the leader of the Eighteen Villages of the Green Forest, but unfortunately he is a talented and lascivious scoundrel." He has also recruited us before, and I am willing to look at him when I wait! ”

Zhu Wujian also said: "This guy was originally a deputy army in Kaifeng Mansion, and he was sent out of the capital for women, but then he somehow fell into the grass. The fire merged with Liao Li, the original owner of the village on Fangshan, and then established himself as the main one, and borrowed Liao Li's cottage as the foundation. This fight to break the county, collected 2,000 people in the mountains, known as 20,000 to the outside world, everywhere to contact Haojie, Jinghu North Road cottage more respect him as a big, I once watched him hand to the cottage to solicit letters, words to see that his ambition is not small! ”

Wang Lun smiled bitterly and shook his head, only to feel that this Wang Qing seemed to be the person with the halo of the protagonist on his body, and he wanted to hold back so hard, but he didn't want to attack the state and county, for fear of making too much noise, causing the attention of the government and the opposition and bringing unnecessary trouble. But this Wang Qing didn't care, without any scruples, and ransacked Fangzhou as soon as the grass fell, and the court was stunned and didn't react, allowing him to play freely.

Although he is in the heart of the Great Song Dynasty, but that Fangzhou is only a thousand miles away from Tokyo, closer to Xijing, no one pays attention to him, and he is allowed to play arrogantly, which leads to his self-confidence in the future, and gradually begins to occupy the state capital.

This time, I robbed the owner of the village surnamed Du, I am afraid that it will be inconvenient for Du Yan, the number one general under Wang Qing in the future? Otherwise, with his ability to steal, the surname Du in the Water Margin fell into the grass on Jinghu North Road, and he could suppress him with his personal martial arts, Wang Lun really couldn't think of anyone else, and he didn't know if he got on Wang Qing's boat at this time.

I want to go home when I go home, I said that I want to call the brother Yuan Lang who has been taking care of him to come to the village, but after the trip home, this Yuan Lang has already voted for Du Bao's village, Du Bang wants to stay in the village, but Yuan Lang just refuses, making Yuan Lang sandwiched in the middle and difficult to be a person.

This time, he came out with Qin Ming, Shi Jin, Huang Xin, Zhu Wu, Jiao Ting, Li Kui, Lu Fang, Chen Da, the eight leaders, plus Lin Chong, who had already gone down the mountain in advance, and he plus these nine people with two thousand horse troops, dealing with a cottage of five or seven hundred people, it should be a matter of hand-to-hand capture, I am afraid that Du Yan has already had contact with Wang Qing at this time, and I am afraid that it will take some trouble at that time.

Although there are currently 6,000 horse troops in the cottage, there are only 3,7800 horses, not to mention that there have been some changes around Liangshan at this time, and the movement is not small, so that they can't help but be guarded, so when Lu Zhishen, Tang Bin, Xu Ning, and Yang Zhi ask for battle, for the stability of the foundation, they still ask them to watch their homes at home, and they can also rest assured.

"General Qin, what do you mean by the imperial court changing Yanzhou to a state at this time?" Wang Lun looked at Qin Mingdao.

"Brother, in my opinion, Liang Shanbo has become famous this year, but that is only a name in the rivers and lakes, and in the eyes of the imperial court, it has not been so eye-catching?" Qin Ming replied.

Huang Xinjian said that he pondered for a moment, and said: "This Yanzhou has been upgraded to the Qingfu Raid, I am afraid that it is only set in the imperial court, and it should have little to do with our cottage!" ”

Wang Lun nodded thoughtfully, he vaguely remembered that in the late Northern Song Dynasty, the imperial court had improved the system of several state cities, as far as Jingdong Road was concerned, the current Yunzhou would be upgraded to Dongping Mansion in a few years, and Qizhou on the edge of Qingzhou would be upgraded to Jinan Mansion, replacing Qingzhou's current status as Jingdong Road Road in one fell swoop. It's just that this attack on Qingfu didn't make him much impressed, and he didn't know if it was his butterfly wings that changed the status quo, or whether the trend of history was moving forward step by step.

The information sent by Zhu Gui was indeed timely, and at this time, Yanzhou had not yet been reformed, and he got the exact news. It is said that after the new prefect is in place, the state city will be upgraded to a prefecture city, and the state taishou will also change from the prefecture to the prefect.

Although the Song Dynasty did not determine the grade by position, unlike the later generations, when you became the mayor of a prefecture-level city, you clarified the treatment at the department level. It must be known that this is not the case in officialdom at this time, it is not uncommon for the governor of the third grade, and the prefect of the fourth grade is not nothing, it depends on your personal qualifications, but with the experience of the ruling mansion, at least the resume of the chief official is much better, and the promotion in the future is wider than that of the governor.

"Eight battalions (commands) came in a row, and the Hebei border army under the Ma Junsi Division of the full guard was a little strange!" Suddenly, Huang Xin sighed at this time, he is also a veteran, and he is naturally not unfamiliar with the transfer within the forbidden army.

"But not how? It's not a small idea to come to this new prefect! Qin Ming sighed: "Originally, this Yanzhou was only three battalions stationed in the forbidden army, or the guard infantry division system, according to the news obtained by the Zhu Gui brothers, it seems that there are still military horses in the imperial court, at this time the box army in the city has been mobilized and began to build a camp, according to the specifications of this military camp, it is estimated that there are no less than eight battalions of infantry to come, and I don't know whether it is a food ban army, or a garrison ban army!" ”

The so-called berthing is the forbidden army stationed in various state capitals, and the food, as the name suggests, is because the border areas cannot afford to raise so many forbidden troops, and some of them will be stationed in the rear for a period of time every year to reduce the logistical pressure on the front line.

It is precisely because of this news that Wang Lun did not bring Lu Zhishen and other generals out this time, although the border of Yanzhou is not bordered by Liangshan Shuibo, but the place where his mansion is located is less than 100 miles away from the east bank of Shuibo, and the movement of this mansion is still worth paying attention to.

These eight battalions of horse army, a real 4,000 men and horses, of which each commander has a horse matching rate of more than eighty percent, which is more than twice as high as the average horse matching rate of three or four percent of the Tokyo horse army, and the number is unknown, but at least the number is not less than the infantry of these eight battalions of horse army, plus the original three battalions of infantry and several box troops in the city, the number has exceeded 10,000, for Wang Lun, he really has to be careful.

It seems that in the future, you can't go down the mountain alone at will, otherwise the huge cottage, as soon as you leave, the dragons will suddenly be leaderless, and it will be very inconvenient to transmit information when encountering major events. Fortunately, at this time, the garrison in Yanzhou City did not come to Qi, and the new prefect did not take office.

Wang Lun thought about his thoughts, but he didn't realize that it was already bright, Wang Lun beckoned the soldiers who had rested for a while, and everyone got on their horses again and galloped away according to the road map left by Lin Chong. Everyone walked for another half a day, and as Huang Xin estimated, at noon, the noise of thousands of people could already be heard miles away, Qin Ming heard it, and shouted: "It's not good, when you hear the sound of this Jin Ge, don't you fight?" ”

Wang Lun listened carefully, and felt that it was not good, so he hurriedly urged the men and horses to rush to the front, and after a while, everyone turned out of a dirt slope, and suddenly saw a large flat ground in front of them, a team of more than 2,000 horse soldiers were driving thousands of foot soldiers to fight. The first very heroic general, who else is not the leopard head Lin Chong? (To be continued......)
