Yang Zaixing's heroic deeds of rescuing Wu Ruolan spread rapidly in the Fuyi River area, and Wu Ruolan's father, Wu Yuanwai, had plans to marry his daughter to Yang Zaixing since he saw Yang Zaixing.

Wu Yuanwai often secretly funded the mother and son of the Yang family, and saw that the prospective son-in-law was becoming more and more handsome and stronger, and he was happy.

Yang Zaixing has to go to the cave to visit Yang Shengtai every day to collect firewood, and Yang Shengtai, who is over seventy years old, is very happy in spirit.

In less than two years, Yang Shengtai taught Yang Zaixing the "Yang Family Gun" marksmanship and the Yang Family Art of War together. Under his guidance, Yang Zaixing's martial arts have progressed rapidly, and he has surpassed Yang Shengtai in the realm, so he is waiting for the actual battle.

One day, Yang Zaixing went up the mountain to collect firewood as usual, preparing to tell his grandfather Yang Shengtai about the happy event of marrying his daughter-in-law. He searched all over the cave and outside the cave, but he didn't see the shadow of Yang Shengtai.

Yang Zaixing was tired, so he sat down on the stone slab at the entrance of the cave, and looked stupidly at the caterpillars crawling on the ground in a daze.

Suddenly, he saw a letter under the slate, and hurriedly opened it to take a look, only to see that it was written in small letters—

Zaixing: My little grandson, your martial arts have been practiced, and when you are above me, grandpa has returned to Guizhou to recuperate.

Grandpa has fulfilled his wish. I wish you and Miss Ruolan a hundred years of happiness and grow old together. Grandpa didn't come to drink the wine. If I don't have anything to give, I'll give you my bright silver spear as a gift.

Be a man with iron bones and stand up to the sky. Don't tell outsiders that I'm your master.

Remember! Take care!

Grandpa Yang Shengtai pen

October 18, the fourth year of Xuanhe

After Yang Zaixing read it, he put the letter away, put it in his arms, carried the bright silver gun, and then left the cave where he had been with his grandfather for more than two years, and continued to collect firewood.

Langshan. The birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, the clear spring is murmuring, the mountain breeze is coming, and the pine waves are bursting. Yang Shengtai said goodbye without saying goodbye, for which Yang Zaixing was lost for a long time.

Master Wu Yuanwai chose an auspicious day and held a grand wedding for Yang Zaixing and Wu Ruolan. Wu Yuanwai was very satisfied with this son-in-law with excellent martial arts and integrity, so he let their family move into the Wu family.

Li looked at his daughter-in-law, who was all day long, and even dreamed of laughing. Seven days after the wedding, Yang Zaixing took his wife back to Shijingtu and learned that the Yang family was secretly discussing a major event, so he suffered from the lack of a leader.

The young and vigorous Yang Zaixing volunteered: "I don't have any family members in Shijingtu, so I'll make it difficult for this leader." But everyone has to do what I do, or they'd rather not do it. ”

"Well, heroes have been teenagers since ancient times. We all believe in you and do everything under your command. The children of the Yang family said in unison.

Yang Zaixing lived in Shijingtu for half a month, and then sent his wife back to Langshan. Soon I will return to Chengbu Village.

At the time of parting, Fuyi Riverside, Wu Ruolan was reluctant: "Zaixing, do you remember that two years ago, you and I met by the riverside?" ”

"Of course I remember, it was an unforgettable encounter, toothless and unforgettable." Zaixing replied.

"Zaixing, I'm waiting for you at home, so when will you come back?" Ruolan almost burst into tears.

"Soon, when I sit firmly in the position of the big leader, I will come back to pick you up." Yang Zaixing said.

"Then you have to be careful everywhere, don't be reckless, greedy for merit, remember."

"Okay. I'm going to have to work hard for you at home, I'm leaving. Yang Zaixing carried a white horse and a silver spear, led the war horse sent by his father-in-law, and entered Dagu Mountain. Wu Ruolan watched her husband go away until he disappeared.

At the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, Zhao Ji of Song Huizong was greedy for enjoyment, indulged in calligraphy and painting, neglected the government and politics, and the class contradictions continued to intensify. The Miao people of Buzhai in Wugang Military City, Hunan Road, were unwilling to accept the cruel exploitation of feudal rule and excessive taxes, and revolted one after another to resist oppression and exploitation.

As soon as Yang Zaixing returned to Shijingtu, everyone was looking forward to it, and nearly 100 Miao people such as Chishui Mountain, Hengling Mountain, Mo Yitong Mountain, and Ranniu Mountain unanimously elected Yang Zaixing as the leader, and the uprising broke out. Because the slogan of the Righteous Army was to drive the officers and soldiers out of the "fiefdom" and the banner was the Red Flag, the peasant army was called the "Red Banner Yang" Righteous Army.

In less than three months, the ranks grew to 60,000 people, affecting several counties in southern Hunan, northern Guizhou, and eastern Qiandong provinces. Yang Zaixing is burly, excellent in martial arts, has a law in governing the army, has strict discipline, and is invincible wherever he goes. At this time, the imperial court was trapped by the Jin soldiers and had no time to conquer it.

During the Jingkang period, the Jin army broke through Tokyo, captured Huizong, the second emperor of Qinzong and the concubines, princes, clansmen, Guiqing and thousands of others returned to the north, which was known as "the difficulty of Jingkang" in history. In the second year of Jingkang, King Kang Zhao Gou was the emperor in Lin'an (now Hangzhou), and he was Emperor Gaozong of the Song Dynasty. There are golden soldiers on the outside, and there are heroes inside who are kings, and the world is in chaos for a while.

The first year of Shaoxing, 1131 AD. Cao Cheng, the general of the Yuan Zongze Department, broke away from the control of the imperial court, led 70,000 soldiers to raise troops, wandered around the Jianghuai area, crossed the Dongting Lake and Xiangjiang River, and occupied Daozhou and Hezhou. "Red Banner Yang" Yang Zaixing hated the government, and led his troops to join Cao Cheng's team and followed him south to plunder Lingnan. The number of rebels increased to more than 100,000.

Cao Chengzhi is also a native of Ruyin (now Yingzhou District, Fuyang, Anhui). He rarely has great ambitions, and often says to his neighbors: "Who should I be the one who has the world as his own responsibility?" But because of the poverty of the family, he became a blacksmith with his father at the age of 15, and later joined the ministry of Zongze.

The "Red Flag Yang" rebel army and Cao Cheng's troops established an alliance relationship, and the number of rebels increased to more than 100,000, beating the Song army to the ground, and the sound shook the government and the opposition, and Song Gaozong was shocked when he heard the news.

In the second year of Shaoxing, in 1132 AD, Zhao Gou of Song Gaozong appointed Yue Fei as the right to know Tanzhou, and also the pacification envoy of Jinghu Nanzhong, and led the Yuejia army of 100,000 to attack Cao Cheng, who occupied the Daozhou area.

Yang Zaixing led 20,000 peasant rebels to defend Moxie Pass (now Chengbu Moyitong, a word of Hezhou), taking advantage of the steep and complex terrain of the mountains and fighting fiercely with the Yue army, nearly more than a month, the Yue army suffered heavy casualties, unable to advance half a mile.

Yue Fei (1103-1142), known as Pengju, was a native of Tangyin County, Xiangzhou (now Tangyin County, Anyang, Henan), a famous general of the Southern Song Dynasty, a famous military strategist, a strategist, and a hero of the Anti-Jin Dynasty, and one of the four generals of Zhongxing in the Southern Song Dynasty.

Yue Fei has never suffered such a defeat since the battle, and he feels very faceless, but he doesn't know what Yang Zaixing's family background is, so he is at a loss, so he asks left and right: "Thief Yang Zaixing, who is it?" ”

"The last general heard that Yang Zaixing is a native of Tangyin, Henan, and he is a fellow townsman with the marshal." Zhang Xian said.

"Definitely. Yang Zaixing is an indigenous, the sixth grandson of Yang Zaisi, the chief of Wuxi during the Five Dynasties period, and has the true inheritance of the Yang family's gun, so it is so strong and brave that it is difficult to overcome. Niu Gao said.

"Oh, I see! This person will also be talented, in Cao Chengbu, it's a pity. If you get it, you can reach a thousand armies! Yue Fei said.

"I think Yang Zaixing's kung fu is nothing more than that, Brother Niu Gao and I are going to behead him now, and take his head to pay tribute to the dead soldiers!" Han Shun said.

"No, this person can only be captured alive, not killed." Yue Fei said.

"Tomorrow, Han Shundang, Niu Gao, and Yue Tuo, the three of you will call for battle in front of the battle, test the truth and reality, and it will not be too late to calculate." Yue Fei said.

"Zhang Xian and Yue Yun listen to the order, and they will respond to the battle tomorrow."

"Order, Marshal!" Zhang Xian, Yue Yundao. So Zhang Xian, Yue Yun, Yue Turn, Han Shundang, Niu Gao and others each returned to the camp and rested early.

The next day, under the leadership of Zhang Xian, 30,000 Song troops lined up in front of Mo Ye Pass, and all of them called for a battle and made a commotion.

At this time, Yang Zaixing had just drunk a bowl of oil tea, and when he saw so many officers and soldiers gathered in front of the pass, he scolded at the pass: "Are you looking for death, you are noisy early in the morning." ”

"Greedy for life and afraid of death, Yang Zaixing, shrunken turtle Yang Zaixing!" Song Jun continued to scold.

"Grandma's, I didn't eat breakfast, so I won't fight you!" Yang Zaixing shouted at the Song army under the gate.

"Brother Zaixing, don't fall for their schemes, the emperor is big when you eat, eat first, and then have the strength to cut them." Cao Chengdao.

"Let's go! Let's eat! Yang Zaixing and Cao Cheng went straight to the barracks.

"Brother, it's still a little cold in April, do you want to have two cups?" Cao Chengdao.

"Medium! I'll only drink one cup, and then I'll eat when I'm done, and then I'll go and kill them, and then I'll come back and drink a few cups with you, brother. ”

"Good! Brother Yang really has the demeanor of the public, and he kills Huaxiong with warm wine! Cao Cheng gave a thumbs up and praised.

Yang Zaixing drank a cup, quickly picked up three bowls, wiped his mouth, carried the Yang family's gun, and led 5,000 soldiers and horses out of Moxie Pass.

When Song Jun saw Yang Zaixing riding a war horse out, he immediately stopped calling for battle. Han Shun was the first to rush forward, pointed at Yang Zaixing with a long knife and said, "If I Han don't kill you under the horse today, I won't be surnamed Han!" ”

After speaking, Han Shundang picked up the knife and slashed at Yang Zaixing. Yang Zaixing saw that Han Shundang was about the same height as himself, and his sword skills were full of flaws, so he didn't take him seriously at all. Han Shundang almost missed, and Yang Zaixing's Yang family guns rebounded one by one, shocking him to the point that his mouth was numb and his arms were sore.

Dealing with Han Shundang, the sixth general in the southeast, Yang Zaixing had no effort, and only used thirty percent of his strength. Twenty rounds later, Han Shun was timid and gradually lost his power. Seeing that he was about to be knocked down by Yang Zaixing, Yue Fei's brother Yue Fu and deputy general Niu Gao hurriedly patted their horses to help in the battle and fought with Yang Zaixing.

It's not brave Yang Zaixing! Another Southern Song Dynasty version of "Three Heroes vs. Lu Bu" is being staged, no! Yang Zaixing is not Lu Bu, Lu Bu is brave and strategic, while Yang Zaixing is different, Wen Taowu is strategic, brave and strategic.

Yang Zaixing's arm strength is amazing, fighting three people, and the more he fights, the more courageous he becomes. After fighting for thirty rounds, Yue Flip, who was behind Yang Zaixing, was eager to win, and he was too close to Yang Zaixing, so he used all his strength to slash at Yang Zaixing's war horse.

"Damn, you want the life of my mount, and put me to death, what a sinister and cunning fellow." Yang Zaixing watched the six roads and listened to all directions, and saw that the big knife was about to fall on the back of the mount, which was extremely critical.

I saw that Yang Zaixing was not in a hurry, and suddenly a backhand, picked up the big knife, and then killed a horse pistol, and a shot hit Yue Flip, just stabbing him in the heart, Yue fell under the horse, the back of his head hit a sharp stone, and he didn't snort, he closed his eyes.
