Zhao Heng's edict soon reached Zhao Gou's account in Daze District.

Zhao Gou convened a meeting of senior military officers, and when he learned the content of the edict, everyone was shocked.

Han Shizhong shouted: "Lord Wang, we have just slaughtered the prince and the young master of the Liao Kingdom, as well as their many warriors, the people of the Liao Kingdom must hate us to the bone, this is the imperial court's plan to kill people with a knife." ”

Liang Yin, like Han Shizhong, did not support going north to support the Liao State: "Lord Wang, this is killing people with a knife." We have to divide troops to support Liao, and when we arrive in Liao, the Liaos also target us, and the people of Jin regard us as the rescuers of Liao, and they will also attack us. This kind of work, I Liang Yin does not obey the edict. ”

Yue Fei said: "Although the edict is issued, it looks very dangerous, but now that the Liao State has been won many times in a row by the Jin people, Emperor Tianzuo is already at the end of the day, if the Liao State is broken by the Jin people, the next step is the Great Song Dynasty." The so-called lips are dead and the teeth are cold. From this point of view, we still have to send troops. However, you can't hurt your muscles and bones. After all, the Liangshan Bo thieves have not yet been settled. Therefore, I suggest that I take some of my people north to support Liao. ”

Zhao thought for a moment and asked, "How is the situation on the other side of Mangdang Mountain?" ”

The commander replied: "Lord Wang, Mangdang Mountain has been garrisoned, but the local heroes have repeatedly blocked the progress of the project, and there have been small encounters with them. They occupy a favorable position, and we did not take advantage of it, but folded a lot of people. ”

"Among them, the Hua family and the Lin family are the most powerful, and they are also influential in the local area, but I am afraid that it is not so easy to get through Mangdang Mountain."

Zhao Gou said: "Since this is the case, let's stabilize the rear first, and then go north." This king will go to Mangdang Mountain and meet the people of the Hua family and the Lin family. ”

"Which of you is going with me?"

Han Shizhong said: "Lord Wang, the Hua family and the Lin family I know, they are all local powerful families, rich and rival the country, and the local people also support them, and even only know that their local heroes don't know that there is a court." It can be said that it is the emperor of the soil of one side. ”

"Hua Luosheng, the head of the Hua family, has the courage of ten thousand people, has three sons, and is extremely strong in martial arts. The head of the Lin family is Lin Gaoshen, who has two sons and a daughter, and this father and son are also masters of martial arts, which is very good. The forces of Mangdang Mountain are staggered, and those who can stand on their feet are these two. Usually the Hua family and the Lin family fight to the death, but now they have joined forces to deal with us. ”

"The prince is going to Mangdang Mountain, Han Shizhong please go."

When Zhao Gou heard this, he immediately became interested, it seems that this Mangdang Mountain is also a place where the dragon and the tiger are hidden, if you want to compete for the world, these land snakes must also be conquered.

As for the Liao State in the north, it is still unclear about their situation, so they can only take a break for the time being.

Moreover, he Zhao Gou wished that the people of the Jin State had defeated the Liao State.

The Jin State defeated the Liao State, and also indirectly helped him Zhao Gou clear an obstacle.

"Han Shizhong, listening to your analysis, this king can't go if he doesn't go. I want to see who dares to touch my soldiers! ”

Zhao Gou took the case and made up his mind to go to Mangdang Mountain first.

Yue Fei got up and spoke at this time, with a sad look on his face: "Lord Wang, the people of Mangdang Mountain are fierce, and the spirit of martial arts is very strong, even a seven or eight-year-old child can drag his fists and feet, this time he can't succeed with few people, and he is afraid of causing the constraints of the imperial court and Liang Shanbo." In my opinion, this matter still has to be considered in the long run. ”

Zhao Gou laughed and said: "With your loyalty, I, Zhao Gou, have a Ten Thousand Buddha Divine Sword in my hand, which is enough to kill the whole world." This king is not afraid, I only need 500 people to follow this Mangdang Mountain. Han Shizhong knows Mangdang Mountain very well, and you will also go with this king. The rest of the people trained well in the barracks. ”

"Inform Zhang Jun that the navy must be trained before the end of the year. When Wu Song eats the entire Liangshanbo, the king will have a decisive battle with Wu Song. As for the Liao side, I still have to go there, in terms of time, I'll talk about it when I come back from Mangdang Mountain. ”

Then send good men and set out tomorrow.

Here, King Li Huan and Li Xiang's sisters have heard about the bad relations between the Great Xia Kingdom and the Liao Kingdom, and they are thinking about going back to Great Xia at the moment.

Zhao Gou gave them a lot of silver taels and the treasures of the Song Kingdom, and asked them to take them with them when they left.

Empress Meng was also ready to go back to the capital to visit Concubine Wei, and Zhao Gou did not hesitate to lose his wealth and sent it away.

That night, I lit up the 500 strong and healthy forbidden army, the Chinese army escort team, Han Shizhong and his own soldiers, and ate and drank happily.

On the second day, he set off directly and killed Mangdang Mountain.

Two days later, they arrived at the station of the Song army. This time, there are 1,000 troops sent in advance to explore the path in Mangdang Mountain, and they are already stationed in Dangxian County at this moment. They were led by an old military leader, and listening to them, one suffered a lot.

Obviously, strongmen are stationed in the Mangdang Mountains.

"Lord Wang, if you come in person, I will be relieved. If you don't come in person, even if you let General Han come, I'm not sure I can be sure. ”

The military leader talked about the strength of the Hua family and the Lin family in Mangdang Mountain, and now he still has palpitations.

"Hua Luosheng, the head of the Hua family, Lin Gaoshen, the head of the Lin family, everyone is a tiger and wolf, and each of their children has the courage to be unsuitable, we contacted them twice in succession, but there was no positive reply. A lot of money has been sent over one after another, but it has only sunk into the sea. My old man is in a rut. ”

Zhao Gou said: "You let their head of the family come to Dangxian to talk to me." ”

The old soldier shook his head and said, "Lord Wang, they let out wild words, saying that even if King Kang Zhao Gou came in person, it would be just a matter of a knife. Arrogance! ”

"I'll arrange for someone to go again now, they see that you are really here, maybe they will come to Dangxian this time."

At that time, the military commander sent two people to Mangdang Mountain directly.

In the middle of the night, suddenly a person was covered in blood, and one of his ears was cut off, and he came back crying and said: "Lord Wang, that Hua Luosheng and Lin Gaoshen didn't give the prince face at all, and directly killed the partner who went with him, cut off one of my ears, beat me half to death, and put it back." ”

"They said, you go back and tell Zhao Gou that Mangdang Mountain is the place where Han Gaozu beheaded the White Snake Uprising, and it is not something that a prince who casually cats and dogs can covet. They also said······"

The soldier's face was aggrieved, as if he didn't dare to speak, and his eyes lowered.

The military leader shouted: "The prince is here, just say it, what else did they say?" ”

They also said that Prince Kang was a wreck, but he only came out to lead the troops to fight Liangshanbo because he was the prince. A mere Liangshanbo, after a year of fighting, has not been beaten, which shows that the prince is an embroidered pillow. ”

The military leader directly said angrily: "Lord Wang, this Hua family and the Lin family are determined to fight with us!" ”

Han Shizhong's face turned red, and he directly took the knife out of the sheath, pointed in the direction of Mangdang Mountain and said, "I, Han Shizhong, want to let these two dog thieves know the fate of offending the prince!" ”

Zhao Gou laughed out loud, and said unhurriedly: "What they said is good. But even if this king is a wreck, and he doesn't want Mangdang Mountain, he can't watch them kill the king's soldiers and mutilate the king's soldiers. I must avenge this revenge for you! ”

"You had one of your ears cut off and you were beaten by them again, go and rest. All of you who have gone out and lost this time have been registered and reported to the king's internal affairs. According to the family's entrance, the dead will be compensated with 1,000 taels of silver, and the coupons will be exchanged for King Kang's treasure banknotes. If you are disabled, you will be compensated with two hundred taels of silver and promoted to the next rank. The commander of the army is responsible for the payment of compensation at his discretion. ”

The little soldier was directly sobbing and shouted: "Lord Wang, although I am injured, but I have picked up a life, even if this life is fought, I must step on Mangdang Mountain!" ”

Zhao Gou summoned the military commander of the garrison, Han Shizhong and others to discuss the military situation overnight.

The next morning, it drove directly to Mangdang Mountain.

Hanaya, right? The Lin family, right?

This king is here!

You all have to pay the price in blood for your bad decisions.
