When night comes, a crescent moon hangs high, and the crooked crescent moon looks like a beautiful boat.

On the canal, the sky Hao Zhining Yuan Shenzhou rode the wind and waves on the water, taking advantage of the spring breeze, and went south along the water.

In the Shenzhou, a snow-white boat, gently rocking, fireworks in March, riding down Yangzhou......

Liangzhejiang East Road, the beacon is full of fire.

With the capture of Qu and Wu Prefectures by Fang Qifo, the generalissimo of the Holy Dynasty, the entire East Zhejiang Road was also in chaos.

After Fang Qifo's army rested in Wuzhou for a short time, the soldiers pointed directly at Yuezhou, the capital of East Zhejiang Road, and at this time, Yuezhou, Mingzhou, and Taizhou rebelled continuously.

There was the Song Dynasty, which was the dynasty with the most uprisings and rebellions.

But there is an age-old paradox in this, since the Qin Dynasty, although the Song has rebelled the most, it is also the only dynasty that has not been overthrown from within.

Song, died outside, not inside.

Jin died Liu Song, and Ming died Li Chuang.

Except for the Song Dynasty, other dynasties were overthrown internally, and the Song uprising and rebellion were so many, but none of them succeeded.

The reason is probably that the purpose of some of the rebels is not pure, and the people's livelihood decree of the Great Song Dynasty is too good.

In addition to the kind of revelation caused by really not having enough to eat, many of the rest want to use the incident to enter the officialdom as a rocker.

Murder and arson were recruited, in the Song Dynasty, it was not an empty talk.

From bandits to officials, dragon slayers eventually become dragons, and herbivores end up eating meat.

The various livelihood decrees of the Great Song Dynasty were also another reason for the difficulty of the rebellion, and these decrees, to a certain extent, neutralized the consequences caused by the white-hot land annexation, and together with the promotion of commerce and trade, maintained the balance and stability of the dynasty.

And at this time of Emperor Daojun, the situation changed suddenly, Emperor Daojun was so happy, pushed the people's livelihood decree to the extreme in ancient times, but because he liked to listen to slander, the credit was treacherous, and the court was rampant.

A large amount of money to help the people's livelihood has fallen into the pockets of corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and it is rarely used in practice.

However, the source of this money is to increase taxes and take it from the people, but in the end it is not used for the people, and even the contradictions among the people are fierce, and the momentum of rebellion at every turn is even more violent......

Yuezhou, the capital of Zhedong Road, the city gate is closed, and even several water gates are sealed with iron gates and boulders, apparently I heard that the city of Hangzhou is broken by the water gate leakage.

The camp of Fang Qifo is set up in front of Yuezhou City, and it goes away continuously, I don't know how far away.

At present, he has gathered the Mingjiao branch of Zhuzhou on the East Zhejiang Road, as well as more than a dozen rebellious green forest heroes, and the total strength under his command is nearly 200,000, which is not less than the army led by Fang La on the North Road.

He was not in a hurry to attack Yuezhou, after all, Yuezhou is also a big city, and learned the lessons of Hangzhou and Muzhou to break the city, and the whole city was guarded like an iron bucket, and the slightest flaw could not be found.

At this moment, the sky was slightly twilight, Fang Qifo was sitting in the handsome tent drinking tea, he was not wearing armor, wearing a white robe, elegant as snow, spotless.

Fang Qi Buddha clan ranks seven, Fang La clan ranks thirteen, he is two years older than Fang La, but looking at his face, it is only like a little bit of twenties, and he can't see the slightest trace of middle age.

He sat alone under him to drink, and he was not wearing armor, wearing a dark black suit, wearing a green coat, and wearing a golden mask on his face, only revealing his eyes and half of his chin, and he couldn't see what his appearance was.

After Fang Qifo took a sip of tea, he said leisurely: "Brother Lin is a hero, why hide his appearance?" If you take off your mask, in the name of your 800,000 forbidden army leader, Liang Shaner's prestige will definitely be able to boost the morale of the army, and it can also suppress those heroes of the green forest. ”

The man sighed: "Lin only hates half his life and has no eyes, first believes in Gao Yu, and then believes in Song Jiang, and ends up like this to make the world's heroes laugh shamefully, where is there still a face?" If you don't hit Tokyo and kill the two dog thieves, Gao Yu and Song Jiang, this mask will not be taken off. ”

Fang Qifo nodded, he could understand Lin Chong's suffering, obviously his martial arts were strong, and his identity was not bad, it was much better than a rural lacquer household like him, who had no official or position, but he had a bumpy road, and finally fled to Jiangnan like a lost dog, which was really sighing.

He comforted: "Emperor Song is mediocre, the court is greedy and autocratic, suppresses loyalty, and preys on the people, then Song Jiang vainly claims to be a good man, but he is a flattering villain with a knife behind his back, such as who doesn't know today?" Brother Lin doesn't have to blame himself too much, when he kills Tokyo in the next day, he catches Gao Yu and Song Jiang, and he will hand them over to Brother Lin, cut his heart and dig out his liver, and all the knives will be sent by Brother Lin, so that Brother Lin will be ashamed and take revenge! ”

When Lin Chong heard this, he couldn't help but clench his fists and said: "Thank you Marshal Gao Yi, Chong is determined to swear to serve the Holy Father and serve the marshal!" ”

Fang Qifo waved his hand: "Brother Lin doesn't have to be so polite, although you are incognito, but you have always entered the Holy Sect, even if you don't have an official position in the court, but you also have the identity of a messenger in the sect, my Holy Pilgrimage is based on the Holy Sect, under the Ming Zun, you and I are brothers!" ”

Lin Chong nodded hurriedly, and said with a Ming Sect salute: "What joy is life, what is the pain of death, the sun and the moon do not fall, and the light will last forever." ”

After another while, Lin Chong returned to the tent, but saw Hu Sanniang sewing and mending clothes, but she was dancing with guns and sticks since she was a child, and she only loved to be armed.

Seeing this, Lin Chong suddenly had another almost forgotten scene in his mind, and he couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart, pinched his own hand, and then stepped forward and hugged Hu Sanniang.

Hu Sanniang turned her head slightly, her expression was a little yellow and haggard, but she said with a smile: "Lang Jun is back?" ”

Lin Chong nodded: "I sat down at Marshal Fang's to drink tea, talking about some military affairs, and unconsciously it was so dark." ”

Hu Sanniang hurriedly sewed a few more stitches, and barely sewed the clothes, then inserted the iron needle, and said, "Lang Jun is hungry, I'll go and heat up some food." ”

Lin Chong shook his head and said: "Where can I still eat, now my heart is full of anxiety, I have been in the army for a long time, but I have not made any contributions, I am afraid that I will be despised by that Fang La, and weaken my leopard first name." ”

Hu Sanniang was puzzled and said: "Now that my husband and wife have changed their names, where is the name to be lost?" ”

Lin Chong shook his head and said: "Changing the name is to prevent Song Jiang from knowing his whereabouts and making conspiracies and tricks, but Fang La's few are not ignorant of their identities, and now that they have the opportunity to follow the dragon, don't they grasp it?" But if you don't make meritorious contributions, I'm afraid that one day you will really go to Tokyo and won't be reused. ”

Hu Sanniang said: "I don't understand this, I only rely on Lang Jun's actions." ”

Lin Chong didn't have much idea when he saw her, he thought for a while, and then slept with his clothes, and didn't say anything all night.

Early in the morning of the second day, Fang Qifo called the generals to discuss the matter, and dozens of generals sat down on both sides.

On the left, they were all brought out from the source of the gang, headed by Bao Daoyi and Shi Bao, and on the right were the Mingjiao people of Yuezhou, as well as the heroes who defected, headed by Zhu Yan of Quzhou and the enemy of Yuezhou.

It has been five or six days since Fang Qifo's army arrived in Yuezhou, but it has not been attacked, nor has it besieged the city, those generals who originally helped Yuan are fine, but the local heroes on the opposite side are a little impatient.

Zhu Yan opened his mouth and said: "Marshal, now that the soldiers are coming to the city, all kinds of fortifications have been prepared, and if they don't attack again, they will just consume grain and grass, which is not good for the army." ”

Fang Qifo glanced at him and said, "There are no flaws in the defense of Yuezhou City, even if we have many soldiers, but even if we can get down here under a strong attack, we will inevitably suffer heavy losses." ”

Zhu Yan frowned, he had thrown himself over since Fang Qifo went south to fight Quzhou, and naturally knew that this Bright Left Envoy Seven Buddhas marched steadily and did not take risks, so he stopped talking.

There was an enemy on the side who touched his beard, and said with a dust: "Marshal, even if you don't send troops to attack the city, you must always surround it, cut off the news and grain route of Yuezhou, although Yuezhou is big, but it is not as accumulated as Hangzhou, as long as the city is besieged, there will be panic inside, and if you can't say it, you will open the door and surrender." ”

Fang Qifo looked at the enemy Daoist and smiled slightly, Quzhou Zhu Yan is a person from Mingjiao, this Qiu Daoist is not, it is the local green forest bandit in Yuezhou, the green forest scoop in Yuezhou, good at double hooks, strong martial arts, and violent temperament.

He said: "General Qiu's words are reasonable, but I see that there are many waterways in Yuezhou, interspersed with disorder, outside the water gate, it is chaotic, and the terrain of Hangzhou is different, and the siege of the city is afraid that it will not work." ”

Qiu Daoren thought about it when he heard this, he was a local, and he knew the geographical characteristics of Yuezhou, and after thinking about it carefully, if this was the case, he couldn't help but cry out in his heart with shame, and he didn't say anything anymore.

At this time, there was another human: "But it's not a way to stop like this, my soldiers and old and young are trapped in the city, and they are all panicking, and they want to take Yuezhou as soon as possible and reunite with their families." ”

Fang Qifo took a look, this is also a good man who caused an incident in Yuezhou, he was about to speak, but unexpectedly, another person snorted: "My subordinates don't have any family members in this city, I just want to go down to the city as soon as possible, kill the officials and merchants, divide the gold in the big scale, and divide the silver in the big plate!" ”

This is a green forest hero who came over from Mingzhou, nicknamed Xiao Batian Chu Meng, who is a first-class master, and is quite famous in the coastal area of Mingzhou.

Fang Qifo said: "You don't have to worry, it's only a matter of time before you take Yuezhou, I have my own strategy and arrangement here, and I will save a lot of attack losses when the time comes." ”

Chu Meng said: "Marshal Fang, what kind of trick do I have to do now, I can take Yuezhou now, but I have to wait for the garrison, I don't know if you wait for a birdball, I am afraid that even if Yuezhou is defeated, the corrupt officials and rich people inside will run out, and there will be nothing left of gold and silver, where is there still oil and water to fish?" ”

Fang Qifo saw that he was not inferior, his face sank, his eyes closed slightly, and he didn't speak again.

At this time, Shi Bao on the opposite side said angrily: "What are we afraid of? Don't you still think that the lives of soldiers are precious, and the siege of the city must be filled with human lives, if you can take it skillfully, why take it by force? ”

Chu Meng pouted and said: "It's a nice thing to say, I'm afraid that even if you take the city, you won't be able to leave anything, and the rich will run away, leaving only an empty city." ”

Shi Bao said: "We act in the Ming Sect, and we put the safety of our subordinates first, how can we consider the gains and losses of some money!" ”

Chu Meng sneered: "There is no benefit, who is willing to work for you, brothers?" I think your Mingjiao is just a good word, and the silver-like wax gun head is useless when you do things! ”

Shi Bao was furious when he heard this, he stood up from the chair with a "soar", stretched out his hand and pointed at Chu Meng and said, "You dare to insult my Holy Sect? ”

Chu Meng also felt that his words were a bit excessive at this time, but he refused to admit his mistake, but said: "Fight and refuse to fight, that is, it is very powerful, if you refuse to attack the city, I will take my brothers to fight Yuezhou, don't say that I took Yuezhou, and you will lose the face of Mingjiao." ”

Shi Bao was already furious at this time: "Insulting my Holy Sect and violating military orders, what are you going to do with Chu Meng?" ”

Chu Meng is a green forest tycoon in Mingzhou, a person who speaks of the same thing, and he can't listen to military orders the most, so he snorted and said: "Is it okay for me to go to Yuezhou at home?" ”

Shi Bao saw that Fang Qifo was sitting above and was silent, and he didn't know what this left envoy thought, so he said: "I don't care if you fight Yuezhou or not, you must always make it clear about the things that insult my saint!" ”

Chu Meng was also angry when he heard this, Shi Bao is just a young man in his early twenties, and he is not very famous in Liangzhejiang, he sits in Mingzhou, which one is disrespectful above the rivers and lakes? When was a hairy boy accused, he said: "It's all said, what should I do?" ”

"Me!" Shi Bao is young after all, although he is angry, he doesn't know what to do, after all, he is not a marshal, and he can't give orders, so he can't help but be speechless for a while.

At this time, a faint voice suddenly came from behind the handsome case: "Since General Chu looks down on my Mingjiao, then Mu will learn General Chu's methods." ”

When everyone heard this, they saw that it was a big man wearing a golden mask behind Fang Qifo who spoke, and they all knew these days that this big man was called Mu Shuang, and he was Fang Qifo's personal guard.

This Mu Shuang is Lin Chong's pseudonym, he followed Fang Qifo to the south, although the army fell into two cities, but because he has been by Fang Qifo's side, there is no chance to make a move, so he has not made an inch, at this moment seeing Chu Meng rampant, he couldn't help but move in his heart, and opened his mouth to invite battle.

Chu Meng glared at him and sneered, "Does the wooden guard want to challenge me?" ”

Lin Chong said: "I can't talk about the challenge, General Chu underestimated my Holy Sect, and Mu wanted to learn a thing or two." ”

Chu Meng has a very high status in the green forest of eastern Zhejiang, and he is a first-class master, he is not interested in the little-known Mu Shuang in front of him, if Fang Qifo personally makes a move, he doesn't mind competing with the other party.

He snorted coldly with contempt on his face, Lin Chong saw his thoughts, and couldn't help but say excitedly: "Could it be that General Chu is not good at guns and sticks, and he doesn't dare to fight with Mu?" ”

Chu Meng knew that he was agitated, but everyone in the tent looked at it, but he couldn't help but say: "Just a nameless person, don't accept to fight!" With that, he got up and walked out of the account.

Everyone looked at Fang Qi Buddha, and when they saw that Fang Qi Buddha was still silent, they all stood outside to watch.

Lin Chong copied the flower spear, raised his legs and left, and suddenly heard the voice of Fang Qi Buddha behind him: "The eighth of the Holy Canon." ”

Lin Chong's body sank when he heard this, and then his steps quickened, Article 8 of the Mingjiao Canon, verbally insulting the Holy Sect, death!

Outside, Chu Meng had already raised the knife, and when he saw Lin Chong coming out, he didn't say a word, but he took it away.

He is a first-class martial artist, and his sword skills are exquisite, so he wants to defeat Lin Chong with one and a half moves.

Unexpectedly, Lin Chonghua had a spear in his hand, collapsing, hitting, stabbing, picking, and plucking, making it seem to be flowing water, but seeing that the shadow of the spear was rolling like a swimming dragon, and the cold light was like Mei Rui, it was more than a dozen moves down, and Chu Meng was killed in a cold sweat.

Chu Meng was shocked at this time, he didn't expect one of Fang Qifo's guards to have such martial arts.

He is not without a trick, a little gritted his teeth, and he used the skill of the housekeeper to cut the horse eighteen knives, this knife is a small practice to the big means, a knife is as fast as a knife, a knife is heavier than a knife.

Although Lin Chong had the upper hand before, under these eighteen swords, he couldn't help but retreat one after another, and was forced out dozens of steps away by the other party.

But just when the eighteenth knife was slashed out, he seemed to have no way to retreat, and suddenly his body fell sideways, and he slid backwards against the ground, and then the spear flew like lightning, stabbing straight out from his armpit, right in Chu Meng's chest!

Chu Meng's body froze, with a look of disbelief on his face, he looked at Lin Chong in a daze, and fell to the ground with a "clang" of the Pu knife in his hand for a while, and blood gushed out from his chest......

Two days later, the Ming Sect of Yuezhou City should burn the city with a large fire, take advantage of the chaos to open the city gate, Fang Lajun took the opportunity to rush into the city, and the city of Yuezhou was broken.
