Song Huizong saw that it was Tong Guan, his confidant, and the general he relied on, and he was slightly yawned at the moment, and asked, "What is the matter with Tong Aiqing?" ”

"Long live my lord, that Liangshan thief Kou is becoming more and more rampant, attacking the prefecture and breaking the county, killing the imperial court officials, making a big disturbance about the Chinese New Year's Eve Lantern Festival, completely ignoring the imperial court, not putting long live in the eyes, and the courtier implores His Majesty to send elite soldiers and strong generals to exterminate the Liangshan thieves." Tong Guan said righteously.

Song Huizong frowned when he heard this, and said, "Liangshan thieves? I remembered, these thieves are indeed too arrogant, they are all under my nose, the crime is unforgivable, since Tong Aiqing proposed it, I don't know who Aiqing can choose to go to Liangshan? ”

"Long live my lord, Weichen Bao Ren will raise one person, with this person going out to fight, he will be able to fight and break the Liangshan bandits." Tong Guan said loudly.

"Oh? Who is so capable that he can be recommended as a lieutenant? I'm a little curious? Song Huizong said with a smile.

"This person is the founding of the dynasty of the iron whip king Huyan Zanyan faction descendants, Runing County is under the control of Huyanzhuo, and is famous for its customary weapon "double whip", there is the courage of ten thousand people, there is this person who is handsome can be exterminated Liangshan thieves. Tong Guan said.

"Even if you are the descendant of the Iron Whip King, you can't be wrong, then you will call Yanzhuo into the Beijing Saint, and I want to see for myself the fierce general that Aiqing said." The matter of Liangshan was solved, and Song Huizong's mood was also very good, so he made an order.

After finishing speaking, he announced his retirement from the court, and a group of guards and eunuchs sent each other out of the main hall.

However, he said that Hu Yanzhuo was sitting in the office of the General Military Department of Runing Prefecture, and he heard the report of the doorman: "There is a holy decree, and I have come to announce that the general will go to Beijing, and there is something to be commissioned." Hu Yanzhuo hurriedly went out of Guo with the officials of the state to greet him, and when he got the military division, the envoy had been waiting for a long time, and after seeing Hu Yanzhuo, he directly opened the holy decree and read it.

That night, Hu Yanzhuo didn't dare to delay, hurriedly packed up his helmet and armor, saddle horse equipment, led thirty or forty servants, and went to Beijing on a starry night, without saying anything all the way.

Three days later, in the early dynasty, the civil and military officials lined up to set the line, Tong Guan made a statement to recommend Hu Yanzhuo, Song Huizong heard that Hu Yanzhuo was waiting outside the palace, and hurriedly ordered someone to announce that Yan Zhuo went to the palace.

After a short time, the crowd saw a general in armor walk in, come to the center of the main hall, and fall to his knees in his robe, saying "Long live".

Song Huizong's body was slightly owed, his hand was on the dragon book case, looking at Hu Yanzhuo below, his face was like three autumn ancient moons, three strands of long hair fluttered on his chest, two pairs of meat bun eyes, a big wide nose and a word mouth, a mouth full of silver teeth flashing brightly, a sky-high iron head, a lock golden Luo wiped his forehead, seven stars nailed soap robe, black oil to inlay armor, riding a royal horse to kick the snow black horse, so that two water mill eight-edged steel whips, the left hand weighs twelve catties, the right hand weighs thirteen catties, it really looks like Hu Yanzan.

Song Huizong liked it more and more, it must be easy for such a good general to break through that Liang Mountain, and he gave him a horse to kick Xue Wu in court. The horse, covered in black ink ingots, and the four hooves of snow are white, so it is called "kicking the snow black horse." "That horse, a thousand miles a day. He was given a seat by holy decree. Hu Yanzhuo thanked him, and followed Tong Guan's Taiwei Mansion to discuss the matter of raising an army to arrest Liang Shanbo. Hu Yanzhuo said: "Yu Ming Enxiang: The villain looks at Liangshanbo, there are many generals, and the horse is inferior and the spear is long, so you can't underestimate the enemy." Will the second beggar be the vanguard? ”

Tong Guan asked, "Which two did the general recommend as pioneers?" ”

"The villain raised the envoy of the Chenzhou regiment, surnamed Han, whose name was Tao, was originally from Tokyo; He was born in martial arts; make a jujube lance; People call him General Yum; This person can be a pioneer. There is another person, who is the training envoy of the Yingzhou regiment, surnamed Peng, whose name is Qi, and who is also from Tokyo; He is the son of a general; make a three-pointed two-edged knife, outstanding martial arts; People call it "General Hundred Eyes"; This person can be a sub-vanguard. Hu Yanzhuo bowed and replied.

Tong Guanguan worships the Taiwei, is the highest military commander of the country, although he is a traitor who pits Zhongliang, but he still has the ability to lead the Western Army to resist the Western Xia is also outstanding, this Baisheng general Han Tao, Tianmu General Peng Xi are all strong generals in the army, naturally know.

"If Han Peng Er will be the vanguard, why worry about the Liangshan bandits, hahaha." Tong Guan was overjoyed after hearing this and said.

On the same day, Tong Guan took two pieces of paper in the Taiwei Mansion, and the Privy Council sent people to Chen and Yingzhou to transfer Han Tao and Peng Yuan to Beijing at night. In the next few days, he came to the Taiwei Mansion to see Taiwei Tong Guan and called Yanzhuo. The next day, Tong Guan led everyone to practice martial arts in the imperial teaching field; After seeing the army, he came to the Captain's Mansion to discuss the important matters of the military aircraft with the Privy Council.

When they came to the Taiwei Mansion, everyone sat down in priority and order, and Tong Guan asked, "How many people are there here in the three roads?" ”

Hu Yanzhuo bowed and replied: "There are five thousand military horses on the three routes; The number of infantry troops will be 10,000. ”

Tong Guan is also a person who knows military affairs, nodded after hearing this, and said: "The three of you will personally go back to the state to select 5,000 elite horse troops and 20,000 infantry troops, go on a date, and collect Liangshanbo." ”

Hu Yan Zhuo said: "These three-way horse infantry soldiers are all well-trained people, strong people and strong horses, there is no need for the palace marshal to worry, but I am afraid that the clothes and armor are not complete, I am afraid that the date will be missed, and it will be inconvenient to take the crime, and I will beg for leniency." ”

Tong Guan nodded and said, "If you say so, the three of you can go to the Jingshi armor warehouse, regardless of the number, choose the armor and armor at will, and go forward." Make sure that the horses are in good order and that they are in good order with the enemy. On the day I left the school, I sent an official to take a look.

Hu Yanzhuo received the Jun Zhi and led people to the Jiazhan Treasury Branch, where he selected 5,000 pairs of iron armor, 10,000 pairs of cooked leather vests, 20,000 copper and iron helmets, 10,000 spears, 10,000 hobs, countless bows and arrows, and more than 500 artillery and iron cannons, all of which were loaded onto the car. On the day of his resignation, Tong Guan allocated 5,000 horses. The three generals were rewarded with gold and silver satin, and the three armies were rewarded with food. Hu Yanzhuo, Han Tao, and Peng Wei all won the battle and bid farewell to Tong Guan and the Privy Council.

The three of them got on the horse and all voted for Runing Prefecture. Yu Lu had nothing to say, and when he arrived in Debenzhou, Hu Yanzhuo scolded Han Tao, Peng Wei went to Chen, Ying'er Prefecture raised an army, and came to Runing to rendezvous. In less than half a month, the soldiers and horses of the three roads have been settled. Hu Yanzhuo put the Beijing division in armor, armor, armor, swords, flags, guns, saddle horses, and built a chain of iron armor, weapons and other things, divided into three armies, waiting for the army. On that day, Tong Guan sent two officers of the Privy Council to come and take a look.

The reward for the three armies has stopped, and Hu Yanzhuo is at the mercy of the three soldiers and horses out of the city; The former army opened the way to the Yum general Han Tao, the main general of the Chinese army was double-whipped, and the rear army urged the Tianmu general Peng Yuan. Ma Bu three soldiers and others, mighty and mighty, killed Liangshan Bolai.
