In the second year of Xuanhe, October 18.

Cao Cao faked the name of the West Wind Army, occupied Youzhou, took Hua Rong as the main general, led Tang Bin, Shan Shiqi, Xu Ning, and Niu Wenzhong to take Shunzhou in the north, and conquered it in half a day.

On the same day, Miyun County, to which Danzhou belongs, was invaded by a group of people of unknown origin, and several fast-paced county officials fled from the city and rushed to Danzhou to report the news.

According to the county officials, the gang of strongmen first sent a fine work, pretending to be ordinary people to blend into the city, and seized the east gate in one fell swoop, and then two or three thousand people rushed in, all wrapped their heads with yellow cloth, and beat the chrysanthemum banner, which was very fierce.

The official guarding the city of Danzhou was the Liao State Cave Immortal Lang Xiao Jin Xianggong, who was shocked when he heard the report, and hurriedly gathered the three generals under his command and discussed: "My place is close to the Great Wall, how important is the location?" When the King of Wei marched south, he never transferred his troops and horses, if he lost, how could I have the face to see the King of Wei? ”

When the three generals heard this, they laughed, and they all patted their chests and said: "Xiang Jin only cares about rest assured, it must be a bandit and a bandit, I heard that the army of King Wei was going south, and I lost my heart for a while, and I gathered to rush to the state and hit the government." But he didn't come to Tanzhou to ask for wildfires, and let the three of us here, that is, 10,000 thieves, and he also committed suicide. ”

The judge not only has to ask: Who are these three guys? Tough words?

The first one of him is a fan, called Biter Weikang, and the other two are Han'er, one Chu Mingyu and one Cao Mingji, all of whom are famous brave generals in Liao, who sent troops and horses, and won many victories.

Originally, there was one of the most extravagant generals here, called Aliqi, the former Xi King Xiao Gan led his troops to Baoyi Prefecture, passing through here, Ai Na Aliqi was brave, and he was recruited to listen to the army, but the army was defeated, and Aliqi bravely broke off, saving Xiao Gan's life, but there was no news from his own family - according to Xiao Gan's words, he must have died in the hands of the Jurchens.

Seeing that the three of him were full of confidence, the cave immortal waiter hugged him a little, and nodded again and again: "It's all up to you to wait for your heart." ”

He left Chu Mingyu to guard Danzhou, and ordered the two generals to bite Weikang and Cao Mingji, lead 10,000 troops, and recover Miyun County.

The second general got the order, Xing Chong ordered the soldiers and horses, and then went to Miyun County to kill - the city of Danzhou Prefecture was only more than 30 miles away from it, and the second general destroyed the army in a hurry, and arrived at Miyun City at dusk.

Cao Mingji saw that the sky was dark, and proposed to camp outside the city and attack again at dawn, biting Er Weikang smiled and said: "Brother, you are so stupid, those thieves saw my army coming, how could they not flee at night?" It doesn't hurt if he escapes, if the gold and silver he robbed also escaped, I waited for a vain hard work, if according to me, he will attack in one fell swoop, and seize the stolen goods, you and I will just add two to five, just wait for the beauty of my good brother! ”

When Cao Mingji heard what he said, he was immediately moved, and nodded again and again: "It's still my brother who is thoughtful." ”

The two immediately ordered the siege of the city, but the walls were not high, and the soldiers set up ladders, and in a short time they climbed the top of the wall and opened the gates from the inside.

Seeing that he grabbed the door so smoothly, there was no enemy who stood in his way, and he exclaimed: "It's not good, the thief must have fled!" ”

Hurriedly ordered the horse to investigate, and after a short time, he reported that the road was made by thousands of yellow turban thieves, and he had escaped from the east gate for a long time.

When the two heard this, they hurriedly ordered to chase after them, and 10,000 Liao soldiers passed through the city and chased them out of the east gate.

In the east of Miyun City, there is a river called the tide river, every flood season, the sound of the flood is like a huge tide, so it is named.

After crossing this river, it is a large area of mountains, dense forests, and there is a road in the middle of it, which can lead to Jizhou.

The Liao army crossed the Chaohe River and pursued along this road, but saw that the ruts on the road were vertical and horizontal, one by one deep in the soil, and there were overturned carts on the side of the road from time to time, copper coins and cloths, scattered in one place, the Liao soldiers fought one after another, and the two Liao generals said happily: "This gang of thieves has really gained a lot of money, isn't it suitable for the two of us to get rich?" ”

At that moment, the horsewhip was whipped indiscriminately, urging the army to chase after him, and in this way he chased out for more than ten miles, and the night became darker and darker, and the shadows of the mountains on both sides were like countless graves.

At this time, the autumn is deep, between the mountains, the night breeze is still cool, Cao Mingji is sitting on the horse and is blown by the wind, and he can't help but shiver.

He took a look at the soldiers, the sparse and long formation dragged on, one by one with tired faces, his heart suddenly, and he grabbed Biter Weikang and said: "Brother, I have been on the road for most of the day, and I haven't drunk a few sips of water, and everyone is tired. ”

When Biting Er Weikang heard this, he also hesitated and hesitated: "Won't it?" Where are the methods of such a thief? ”

While he was talking, the sentry horse galloped back and hurriedly reported: "Two generals, there is a fork in the road five miles ahead, and the thieves have caused infighting, and the money has been overturned, and the blood is flowing like a river......

Biting Er Weikang was overjoyed and shouted: "But isn't God waiting for me?" Brother Cao, don't hesitate, this injection of wealth is destined to be consumed by you and me. ”

Cao Mingji thought that he had chased it here, and it was not bad for five or seven miles, so he immediately ordered a group of partial generals to drive the soldiers to speed up the hurry, and the Liao soldiers were hungry and tired, and they were driven forward at a trot, and they complained for a while.

Biting Er Weikang and Cao Mingji just ignored it, and led hundreds of cavalry to chase first, and after a while, they saw a group of fires in front of them, and the sound of fighting and fire was blowing in the wind.

The two generals were overjoyed, and rushed to the horses, and sure enough, there was a fork in the road, piling up countless carts, and more than a thousand thieves wrapped in yellow scarves killed and scolded each other, among which there were sharp-eyed people who saw the Liao soldiers and shouted: "The officers and soldiers are coming, the officers and soldiers are coming, and the wind is tight." ”

Hearing that there were officers and soldiers, the thieves shouted in unison, and they all fled to two forks in the road, and there were dozens of them, and they gritted their teeth and shouted: "It's empty, and you can make wedding dresses for others, so you can simply burn them." ”

The torches in their hands were thrown one after another, and they fell on the carts, and in a short time, the fire rose into the sky. Biting Er Weikang was furious and said: "The bones of thieves are so hateful! Come with me to put out the fire. ”

He led the cavalry to the fire, dismounted and looked, where was there money and goods on those carts? It was full of straw, and Biting Er Weikang and Cao Mingji exclaimed in unison: "It's not good, it's a trick!" ”

Before the words fell, in the mountains and forests on both sides, crossbow arrows and stones smashed down on the head and face.

His group of Liao soldiers all stood in the firelight, very conspicuous, took out their bows and arrows to fight back, where could they see a person on both sides?

While striking arrows, the two Liao generals shouted urgently: "Get on the horse, retreat, retreat!" ”

The Liao soldiers were scrambling for horses, and suddenly shouted to kill, and the thieves who had fled into the two forks in the road turned around and killed them back, or shot them with bows and arrows, or took stones and smashed them, and the Liao soldiers became more and more frightened, and fled back and forth in a hurry.

After running for several miles and meeting up with their own infantry, Biting Er Weikang and Cao Mingji were relieved, counting the men and horses, and following the hundreds of Liao cavalry, only fifty or sixty people escaped.

The two Liao generals scolded the sky and the earth, and the infantry behind gradually gathered, biting Er Weikang and said fiercely: "This gang of thieves must be eating my bones, and I am helpless to chase them, and the dog jumped over the wall in a hurry and came up with this plan!" Although we have suffered losses, they have burned the cart, how can we take away a lot of goods? I don't think he can go fast, why don't you kill a horse pistol and take revenge! ”

Cao Mingji nodded and said: "Yes, yes, he must have hidden all his belongings in the forest, how can he escape far away at this moment?" ”

The two had the same mind, and led the troops back with great momentum, and when they saw that the carts were extinguished and pushed down on both sides of the road, they were all happy to say: "But we guessed it." ”

Just about to divide the troops to chase, suddenly felt the earth shake, the complexion suddenly changed, in a moment, on the two forks in the road, each rushed out of a group of cavalry, as the leader and two generals, one made a big sword, one made a halberd, it was like two sharp blades, straight into the Liao army array.

Pity this group of Liao soldiers, they set off before noon, until midnight, the water and rice have not touched their teeth, and their legs and feet are twitching, how can they defeat this group of wolf-like cavalry? In an instant, he cried his father and shouted his mother, and it became a mess.

In the chaos, he only heard the thief who painted the halberd and shouted: "Grandpa is the 'Chrysanthemum Tai Sui' Zhou Bawang, and those who know each other will kneel down and surrender, otherwise they will all die." ”

Biting Er Weikang was shocked: "In this realm, when did this 'Chrysanthemum Tai Sui' come out?" Look at his gang of elite riders, they are by no means ordinary bandits, how come they have never heard of his name? ”

Cao Mingji shouted: "No matter how he came from, there are only hundreds of people left and right, I have 10,000 soldiers and horses here, and I have drowned him - they are all killed by me, who dares to retreat, eat this general first!" ”

It turned out that this road, after all, was opened from the mountains, but it was not like the plains, which could spread the cavalry.

Cao Mingji's battle formation for a long time, a few glances to see the clues, now led the soldiers to wave the sword to supervise the battle, to use human lives with the other side to consume, once withstood the cavalry impact, it turned defeat into victory.

The self-proclaimed Zhou Bawang rushed to the first one, the halberd flew over, and killed twenty or thirty people in a row, but after all, there were many Liao soldiers, and the road was blocked, and when his war horse gradually stopped, the Liao soldiers besieged in all directions, and the Zhou Bawang turned around in place, and a painting halberd danced so that the water could not splash in, but his heart became anxious, and shouted: "Xie Zhen...... No! It's a big fork! Unraveling the big fork and untying the two forks, what are you waiting for? I'm going to sing embattled songs here! ”

Before the words fell, the shouts of killing in the mountains and forests on both sides rose loudly, and countless torches were lit and rushed down the mountain like a tide.

But I saw that there were about 2,000 people on the left, and the two leaders each made a muddy iron and iron steel fork, just like two deadly yakshas, and overturned more than ten people with their hands.

On the right, more than 2,000 people were killed, the first two, but a man and a woman, the man held a single whip, and the woman danced two steel knives, which were also extremely fierce.

Although there are many Liao soldiers, they are tired troops, and they are ambushed, and it is extremely difficult to forcibly withstand the impact of the cavalry.

Those Liao soldiers only cared about survival, and did not care about the pro-soldiers who supervised the battle behind, if they dared to block the road, they would draw their knives and chop, killing more than ten pro-soldiers in an instant, and running away from the way of life.

The ambush soldiers saw the Liao soldiers fleeing, cheered in unison, the crowd raised a banner, the center of the banner embroidered a huge golden chrysanthemum, but it was embroidered with the best gold thread, the torches were extinguished, shining on the chrysanthemum, only to see the brilliance, more and more vivid.

At this point, the officials must have already made it clear: this army of soldiers and horses attacking Miyun is the Chrysanthemum Army of Li Jun's department.

The self-proclaimed "Chrysanthemum Tai Sui" Zhou Bawang is Zhou Tong, and the rider who makes the knife is Wenda. The follow-up four generals are Xie Zhen, Xie Bao, Sun Xin, and Gu Sister-in-law.

It turned out that Li Jun changed his name to "Troublesome Sea Dragon" Li Wushu according to Cao Cao's intentions, and let go of the trouble in Jizhou.

He locked the city gate, used money and grain as bait, provoked confrontation among various ethnic groups, and in a few days, killed more than 100,000 Khitans, Jizhou Khitan, and became extinct.

Although Li Jun has never stabbed a person, his fierce reputation has been blazing, and the Han people in the city and all the tribes in the Bohai Sea are the only ones who follow him, secretly called the "Blood Sea Demon Dragon", Li is invincible, and he can stop the children's night cry.

Li Jun picked up the man who killed a lot of people and was in good health, recruited him as an army, counted more than 30,000 people, scattered the original naval army into it and made a team general, trained for a month, stayed in Duxing, Lehe and guarded Jizhou, and the soldiers were divided into two roads and officially set out for the expedition.

Two roads of soldiers and horses, one led by Zhang Shun, Li Ying, Duan Sanniang, Zou Yuan and Zou Run, went east to take Ping, Jing, Ying, Luan several small states, waiting for the opportunity to seize the Great Wall Pass, all the way to personally command, with Wenda, Zhou Tong, Xie Zhen Jiebao, Sun Xin, Gu sister-in-law, raiding Danzhou, waiting for the opportunity to seize the Huangya Pass.

Because the soldiers and horses of Danzhou were not recruited, and their own chrysanthemum army was a new formation, they did not dare to touch him, so they first took Miyun, lured him to chase, and ambushed him by taking advantage of the terrain of mountains and forests.

Seeing that there was nothing to do, Cao Mingji also turned the horse's head around, wrapped in the rout and fled, and thousands of chrysanthemum troops chased and killed all the way, and when they escaped from the mountains, there were only three or four thousand people left in the 10,000 Liao army, and the rest were either killed or escaped into the mountains and forests at night.

The two Liao generals came to the bank of the Chaohe River in a panic, looked at it, and shouted in unison: it was a bridge on the river, and the stone slabs were removed at some point, leaving only two rows of bare piers.

In a hurry, a small boat slowly floated upstream, and a fisherman sat on the side of the boat, barefoot in the water, holding a wine gourd and singing loudly, drunk in tone, obviously full of old wine.

Listening to him sing: "If you don't be an official, you don't farm, the master only sleeps in the water." Gluttonous to buy a pot of wine, the emperor envy me for idleness. ”

When Cao Mingji saw it, he hurriedly beckoned: "That fisherman, come to the shore, come to the shore." ”

The fisherman raised his head drunk, and shouted in a low voice, as if he was frightened, his feet snapped into the water, and the boat was suddenly farther away, so he laughed and sang: "The official called me to dock before the fish, robbed the fish and shrimp and robbed the money, the lord was not fooled, you and I have no fate today." ”

A fisherman came out in the middle of the night, quite strange, Biting Er Weikang was originally a little suspicious, but now seeing that he was going to slip away, he put his mind at ease, took out a gold ingot, held it in his hand and shouted: "That fisherman, look at what this is!" ”

The fisherman narrowed his drunken eyes, his eyes immediately widened, his back straightened, and he said in a trembling voice: "This, isn't this a piece of gold?" ”

"It's a piece of gold!" Biting Er Weikang and Yan Yuese said: "You bring the boat and cross the two of me to the other side, gold, yours!" ”

The fisherman was stunned, and his drunken face suddenly showed a hint of cunning, and he turned over, and touched the oars, and the boat snorted, and jumped to a foot on the shore, and the fisherman rolled his eyes and said, "Throw the gold on the boat, and see if it is true, and if it is, I will cross you on the shore." ”

Seeing that he was cheating, Biting Er Weikang became more and more distracted, and deliberately straightened his face and said, "Are you stupid for me?" You took the gold, rowed away, where shall I find you? ”

The fisherman struggled for a moment, and then muttered, "You come on the boat, kill me, and rob my boat, where shall I look for you?" ”

Biting Er Weikang coaxed him: "I am a general of Da Liao, how can I bully my own people?" If you come to cross me, you are doing me a great favor, and it is too late to thank you, how can it hurt you? It's useless for me to want this ship of yours, and I won't rob you. ”

Cao Mingji was afraid that the chasing soldiers behind him would catch up, so he said: "Exactly, you crossed the two of me, this piece of gold is the reward, with this gold, you don't have to fish, and it is enough to drink wine for a lifetime." ”

The two talked, and the fisherman seemed to be moved by him, and slowly approached the shore: "You are all great generals, don't lie to me, a miserable man." ”

The two nodded again and again, the boat was not big, and even the horses were gone, so they hurriedly jumped on the boat, but instructed the generals below: "You wait for the formation to be guarded, and the two of us will go back and immediately send the people to repair the bridge, and if the enemy comes, just stop it with bows and arrows." ”

The generals were angry in their hearts, but they didn't dare to say much, and they all nodded in response.

I saw the fisherman pull the oar, and the boat went to the center of the river like an arrow, pointed to the Liao soldiers on the shore and said with a smile: "You dry Liao dog, everyone who knows each other puts down their swords and guns, otherwise when the chrysanthemum army surrounds them, the father and mother of the family will never see each other again, if you don't believe it, you will look like you first!" ”

He said this very quickly, and before the words fell, the oar rolled up horizontally and smashed towards Cao Mingji.

Cao Mingji knew that it was not good when he heard him, and hurriedly caught the oar, and was about to take it, but the fisherman let go of his hand first-

It turned out that he hid a short knife, which he held with the oar, and never saw it, but at this moment it was clearly revealed, and with a snort, he stabbed into Cao Mingji's neck, and spurted out, the blood arrow spurted out, Cao Mingji looked stunned, reached out to cover the wound, the fisherman kicked it, and fell into the water.

Bite Weikang was shocked, pulled out the sword, rushed to stab the fisherman, the fisherman laughed, turned a somersault into the tide river, Biter Weikang panicked and went to pick up the oars, but the boat shook, and the bottom turned on the river.

The three or four thousand remnants on the shore were stupid, and they all looked at the river one by one, and after half a burnt incense, they saw the waves surging in the river, and the fisherman came out of the waves with his hands in his hands, and stepped firmly on the tide river, and the river only rose and fell in his calves.

The Liao soldiers were stunned and shouted: "Water ghosts, water ghosts!" ”

The fisherman laughed and shouted, "Your father is a water ghost!" If the husband doesn't change his name, he doesn't change his surname, my lord, I am the marshal of the Chrysanthemum Army, Li Wuving, and the people in the rivers and lakes call it 'Troubled Sea Dragon'! You guys have all eaten the master's calculations, if you don't surrender, I'll look at you again! ”

After that, he held the hair of Biter Weikang with one hand, held a knife in his left hand, and stabbed a knife into Biter Weikang's neck, Biter Weikang was originally drowning in the water and was unconscious.

The headless corpse fell into the water and floated away with the waves, leaving a frightened head in the hands of the fisherman, who laughed fiercely and lifted the head and shouted: "Finally, ask again, will you wait for the surrender or not?" ”

The Liao soldiers looked at each other, and they didn't know which one knelt first, and after a while, the shore knelt down, and only Li Jun stood proudly on the water, holding a human head, like a god and a demon.

The real one is: the stars are full of the sky, the moon is full, and the clouds know the wine and the heart. The west wind is mighty and the chrysanthemum dances, wanting to dye the country and the mountains and thousands of miles of gold.
