In February, there are more pedestrians on the streets, and it is more lively than the Chinese New Year. The hawkers carrying the burden, and the cries of the small vendors along the street are endless.

The noodle shop with the sign of "Lee Kee Beef Offal Noodles" swaying in the wind is overcrowded. One is that the amount is more affordable, and the other is that the secret chili oil is added to taste. The shop is not big, the business is booming, and the profit is not less than that of the average restaurant.

As a dark-skinned, plainly dressed old man by the window, while eating noodles, he said with gossip on his face: "Hey, have you heard of Manichaeism? persuaded me to join the church to live forever, but I scolded and ran away. ”

"Isn't it? It is said to be a Jiangnan sect that persuades people to practice for good. ”

"You've met it too? And there seems to be a Holy Father, the Four Great Dharma Teachings, and the Dharma King ......" At this time, a guest dressed as a vendor at the next table interjected.

Someone on the table on the left also turned his head: "Hey, I'm from Jiangnan." Manichaeism, with tens of thousands of soldiers, is located in many state capitals in the south of the Yangtze River. ”

"Ouch, so many people? Does the court care? ”

"Tube? The court doesn't know about this, how can it be managed? ”

"I've heard that Manichaeism is so powerful in Jiangnan that the government doesn't dare to provoke it. No one knew who the believers were, and if they were not sure, they would be assassinated on the spot. ”

"Oh, my mother, these people are not persuading people to be kind, why are they so ruthless?"

"Who doesn't pay lip service to persuading people to be good? Manichaean Vegetable Eater ......"

……

The small and lively noodle restaurant is full of guests at three or five tables talking about Jiangnan Manichaeism. The Holy Father, the Four Protectors and other related information. The uninformed listened while eating noodles and asked curiously, and there were more and more discussants.

This noodle shop is one of the strongholds in Yangsan, and it was ordered to spread the news secretly.

A similar situation was staged in Xiaozhi stalls, restaurants, tea shops, and Goolan tile houses all over Bianliang City. One spread ten, ten to hundred, and spread quickly. So much so that after three or two days, there were always people talking about the Manichaeans in Jiangnan.

However, these gossips, gossip and rumors, only spread in the market. For those dignitaries and dignitaries in the court, they didn't care about it after hearing it. And how do you know that the spread of the news is only a prelude to the storm.

From the beginning of spring, the continuous spring rain makes the roads muddy and difficult to walk. The urgent information sent from Suzhou was still on the way at the end of February.

In the middle and late of the political month, the Liao State was defeated and collapsed, and the Jurchens succeeded in establishing the country, their morale was like a rainbow, and they attacked the city and pulled out the village, but the Song Dynasty did not know.

In the northern Liao State, the military movements on the Western Xia border were frequent.

Tong Guan, the envoy of the Privy Council, originally wanted to go to the north to inspect after three months. However, the north was not calm, and after receiving the edict, he immediately rushed to the town.

Tong Guan, who is it?

Tong Guan (1054-1126), a native of Kaifeng (now Henan). Sexually ingenious. The first enshrined officer, in Hangzhou for Huizong to collect calligraphy and painting KitKat. Help Cai Jing to be the prime minister. Beijing recommended him as the supervisor of the Northwest Army, led the Privy Council, and held military power for 20 years, and his power was tilted both inside and outside. He called Cai Jing "Gongxiang", called him "Xiangxiang", and was one of the "Six Thieves".

Tong Guan, a big traitor, is humble and has no resourcefulness. Huizong paid the handle of the army, so as to reward the secrets of the ceremony. Since he came out of Shaanxi, he has been in the middle of the rituals, focusing on bullying the king and ignoring the king, setting up a false city, playing the side in vain, and thinking that he is his own merit. Draw in the small group, change the generals, and plant the private party. Traffic feeds, sells officials, exceeds, and disorder

Pawn.

That is to say, Tong Guan achieved the pinnacle of his life by patting his sycophants and stinky feet, and was remembered by history. During his lifetime, he created several "bests" in Chinese history, which have become unsurpassed in the history of the Chinese nation.

It is a eunuch who was castrated into the palace as an adult in Chinese history: the eunuch who held the army for the longest time in Chinese history; the eunuch who held the most military power in Chinese history; The highest eunuch in Chinese history; The first eunuch in Chinese history to represent the state on a foreign mission; The only eunuch in Chinese history to be canonized as king......

He is one of the favored ministers of the Merry Emperor Song Huizong, and he is particularly fond of him......

On the streets of Tokyo City, Tong Shumi's chariots were mighty, hundreds of forbidden troops were fully armed, swords and guns were like a forest, murderous, and the banner of children's characters was fluttering.

The gong opened the way, the flags were unfurled, the sergeants shouted, and the people on the street retreated.

A tall and burly old man walked in the front, with a black horse in his crotch. With bright eyes, a dark complexion, and a beard under his head, this person is Tong Guan, full of masculinity, not like a eunuch.

This man is powerless and greedy for money. But he is measured, can waste money, and is quite generous. He is particularly preferential to his own henchmen, so he has a lot of prestige in the Western Army.

Under the escort of hundreds of civil and military officials, the convoy left Bianliang City and was outside the Shili Pavilion. Someone had already placed the incense case, wine and meat, and bid farewell to Tong Shumi.

This is the time of the ceremony!

Suddenly, from the crowd on both sides of the road and in the nearby woods, there was a shocking shout of killing.

"Kill, kill the traitor."

"Brother, kill corrupt officials and corrupt officials, kill!"

"Give me a rush and eliminate harm for the people

, to promote the prestige of my Ming Sect. ”

I saw a group of masked people armed with steel knives emerging from the surrounding crowd in the woods. More and more, densely packed, counting, at least three or five hundred. With the sound of rumbling horses' hooves, more than 100 cavalry people poured out of the forest.

"Oh no, run!"

"Strongman, it's strongman, run!"

This sudden turn of events stunned everyone, and the people who were watching around scattered and fled. In a panic, they rushed into disarray of officers and soldiers, and the riots were unbearable.

"Brothers, the dog officials have plagued the people, done many evils, and many families have been ruined. Kill them. Preach the doctrine of my great light, rush! ”

"Burn my body, blaze the holy fire, live and be happy, and die and suffer, for the good and evil. But the light, joy and sorrow, all to dust, mercy to the world, there are many sorrows. Mani is alive, and the Holy Father shines in Kyushu! ”

"Kill, kill all these traitors!"

The sword-wielding men who poured in from all over the place shouted uniform slogans, and pounced on the ministers of civil and military affairs with murderous vigour, and before they could get closer, some people bent their bows and arrows. The dense arrows fell into the group of forbidden troops, and instantly shot a large number of people, either killed on the spot or screamed miserably......

"Quick, protect your lordship."

"Don't mess up, don't panic......" The officer's roar made the scene even more chaotic.

One side is prepared, and the other side is caught off guard!

The two sides met and a fierce battle began.

No, it should be a massacre, the forbidden army has been blessed after the New Year, and there is a lack of training in modern times. I was caught off guard again. If it weren't for the support of many veterans of the Western Army, I am afraid that it would have been defeated long ago, and the defense line would be crumbling.

And the masked men who flocked from all over the world were well-trained and highly skilled in martial arts. allow

No matter how the panicked forbidden army yelled, it was in vain to let them fight hard. More than 100 cavalry were like a straw that crushed a camel's camel and chiseled through the defensive line.

The masked man who followed was fast, ruthless, put away his knife, and slashed one after another. The people behind couldn't make it up, so they bent their bows and arrows and shot wildly. Under the cover of this crossfire, the forbidden army was cut to the ground and fell in a pool of blood, only to see the avenue outside the city, and the corpses were strewn all over the field.

Most of the hundreds of forbidden troops were lost, and the civil and military ministers above the court had a few arrows stuck in their buttocks or arms, and they were so frightened that they hid in the crowd, howling and crying, and hiding in all directions. Anxious like a lost dog, vast like a fish that has slipped through the net.

However, these masked men are fierce, but they do not love to fight, and they fight and retreat. After all, this is at the foot of the Son of Heaven after all, and there are tens of thousands of forbidden troops in the imperial city outside the city. Knowing that the strongman attacked and killed hundreds of officials, he would definitely support him as soon as possible.

When the overwhelming cavalry roared.

Unfortunately, the strongman left dozens of corpses behind and disappeared into the woods. The imperial forbidden army entered the pursuit, but encountered a trap and suffered heavy losses.

Attacks outside the city come and go as fast as they come.

The losses of the Praetorian Army exceeded hundreds, and several ministers were unfortunately killed. The key target, Tong Guan, was hit by an arrow in the shoulder, and it was no big deal, but he was crying.

Because the fake son who came to see him off was hacked to death with a knife, and it was extremely miserable! It is said that the fake son is the son born to Tong Guan for the fornication with his sister-in-law before entering the palace. Now that he has ended up so miserably, he cried bitterly and fainted several times.

Tong Yanei, Gao Yanei are the two most lustful and fierce bullies in Bianliang City. The news of the killing of the evil boy of the Tong family spread like a hurricane, and the people applauded. So far, the two tyrants in the capital have died and been crippled, and the world is clear

It's quiet.

I have to say that this is a great blessing for the women in the city.

However, this is a naked slap in the face for the imperial court. Song Huizong in the palace was furious when he learned of the attack, and a thunderous roar spread throughout the palace, vowing to investigate the matter thoroughly and pursue it to the end.

Manichaeism, the Holy Father, the four great protectors, and more than 10,000 soldiers were collected. It happened to be sent from Suzhou to Bianliang City.

Zhu Mian was attacked by Manichaeism, seriously injured and disabled!

Song Huizong was so angry that Daozu killed the Buddha, and he wanted to mobilize the army to go south to suppress the bandits.
