In May of the seventh year of Song Jiading (1214), forced by the Mongol iron cavalry, the Jin State gave up a large territory of Lianghe and moved its capital to Kaifeng, Henan, which was confined to Henan and Shaanxi, and the country was even weaker.

Tired of dealing with the Mongols, the Jin State was unable to control the country, and the Han people in Hebei took advantage of the rebellion to rebel against Jin, among which the Red Jacket Army led by Li Quan in Shandong became the main force of the rebel Jin rebel army.

In view of the rise of the Mongols and the increasing decline of the Jin Dynasty, the Song court stopped paying tribute, accepted the Shandong Red Jacket Army, gave it the name of "Loyal and Righteous Army", and provided money and food. In the tenth year of Jiading (1217), the Jin State sought to reward the Song people due to the lack of national resources, declared war on the Song, and the Song and Jin wars started again. Song Ting's war of gold, and actively recruited people from the north to return to Zhengbei,

Later, in order to control the situation along the border and promote defense, the Song court moved the office of the Huaidong System Division from Yangzhou to Chuzhou, an important town on the Song-Jin border, and appointed Jia She, a cadre, as the envoy of the Huaidong system.

After Jia Shi served as the envoy of Huaidong, he used money, food and division to control the loyal army. It's a pity that it failed. Jia Shi was unable to cope and died of illness on the way out of office. Xu Guo, the former commander of the Jing-Hubei capital, took over as the envoy of Huaidong and sat in Chuzhou, an important border town in southern Huai.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, when thousands of families were reunited, the cold on both sides of the Huaishui River was fierce, and the generals of the Loyal and Righteous Army in the hall of Li Quanfu, the leader of the Loyal and Righteous Army in Chuzhou, were all anxious.

In the first year of Jin Zhining (1213), the Mongol army attacked Shandong of Jin, and Li Quan's mother and eldest brother were killed by the rebels. In order to take revenge, Li Quan and his second brother Li Fu gathered thousands of troops to respond to Yang An'er, the leader of the Shandong Righteous Army, and attacked Shandong.

In the tenth year of Jiading of the Song Dynasty (1217), the Song court issued an edict to cut down the gold and recruit the righteous army from all walks of life in Shandong. In the following year, Li Quan led his troops to join the Southern Song Dynasty, and due to his repeated military exploits, Li Quanguan was promoted to the rank of Chengxuan envoy and Baoning military festival envoy.

However, at this time, Li Quan, the leader of the Loyal and Righteous Army, was not in the city of Chuzhou, but in Qingzhou, Shandong, north of Huaishui.

Li Quan sat in Qingzhou, Shandong Province, north of Huaishui, and Chuzhou, south of Huaishui, was garrisoned by his wife Yang Miaozhen.

"Liu Qingfu, what did the Enfu send you to Chuzhou?"

On the main seat, the heroic Yang Miaozhen asked softly.

Liu Qingfu was stationed in Shandong with Li Quan, and he went to Huainan for the New Year, and he never came to celebrate the festival.

Yang Miaozhen's skin is slightly dark, but her appearance is good, she is tall and has long legs, and the men's armor is worn on her, which has a unique style.

Yang Miaozhen's brother Yang An'er was the former leader of the Shandong Red Jacket Army. After Yang An'er was killed by the Jin army, his uncle Liu Quan collected the remnants of the crowd and called Yang Miaozhen "aunt" and commanded his troops. Later, Yang Miaozhen and Li Quan married and became Li Quan's right-hand man. Li Quan occupied Qingzhou, Shandong, and Yang Miaozhen commanded troops in Chuzhou. The husband and wife looked north and south, and each other was horns.

Yang Miaozhen is not only good at riding and shooting, has martial arts, but also has many strategies, can command troops, and is deeply respected by the generals in the army, so he has the honorific title of "Entang".

"Liu Qingfu, how is the situation in Shandong? Did the Tatars send troops to attack Shandong? ”

Yang Miaozhen's subordinates are known for their resourcefulness and resourcefulness.

"Is Enfu unhappy because of Xu Guo's affairs?"

General Yan Tong frowned and asked, full of suspicion.

Li Quan and his wife have a high prestige in the Loyal and Righteous Army, Yang Miaozhen is called "Entang" by the soldiers of the Loyal and Righteous Army, and Li Quan is called "Enfu" by his subordinates.

As for the Xu Guo in their mouths, it is Xu Guo, the newly appointed Huaidong envoy last year. Because of his arrogance and rudeness, Xu Guo called the generals of the Loyal and Righteous Army, which made the generals very dissatisfied.

"Xu Guo, Entang went out of the city for ten miles to greet him, and Enfu went to meet him, arrogant and rude, and he had to bow down, he didn't bully people like this! Whatever I say, my loyal army depends on him for support, and we will run wherever he points out. What a fucking shit! ”

Liu Quan, the deputy general of Chuzhou, was indignant, his face was dark, his bones were thick, and he was a typical peasant man.

Although he is Yang Miaozhen's uncle, because he is not much older and serves in the army, he has to call Yang Miaozhen "Entang".

"Since Xu Guo served as the envoy of the Huaidong system, he has suppressed our loyal and righteous army everywhere. As long as there is a dispute and conflict with the official army, it must be us who is wrong! Most of the rewards of the imperial court were distributed by him to the officials and soldiers. If this continues, will we still have a way to live? ”

Guoan's face was ugly and worried, and he looked at Yang Miaozhen on the main seat.

Yang Miaozhen also frowned tightly and did not say a word.

How could she not know what her subordinates said. But if you don't really want to offend the Great Song Dynasty, you have to think twice.

Especially the crown prince Zhao Hong, who had just ascended the throne, somehow, Yang Miaozhen felt weak when he thought of this person.

Li Quan's second brother, Li Fu, leaned lazily on the chair and yawned from time to time. His eyes were dark, and he was obviously sleep-deprived or over-drunk.

"Since I returned to the Song Dynasty, even if the Huaidong envoy was the prime minister, he didn't dare to let the Enfu kowtow. Xu Guo's guy was originally a military general, but he was full of swagger, and let Entang kneel and worship. What a damn one! ”

Liu Qingfu observed his words and continued to arch the fire.

I have to say that Xu Guo's arrogance and domineering made all the generals of the Loyal and Righteous Army unfair.

"Xu Guo" concentrated 130,000 troops of two Huai horses and marched outside Chu City, isn't this a disgrace for us? He repeatedly made statements to Shi Miyuan, saying that the loyal and righteous army wanted to rebel and had to be guarded against. Shi Miyuan asked him to be appointed as the envoy of Huaidong, don't we want to find a way to protect ourselves, and we have to sit back and wait for death? ”

Liu Quan said angrily, emotional.

"And Xu Guo's staff Zhang Mengxian, who actually asked me to kowtow and bow through the curtain. He is a little sour Confucian, and he doesn't even have a reputation, and he dares to ride on Lao Tzu's head to and pee. When the time comes, Lao Tzu will have to kill him alive! ”

Referring to the humiliation, Liu Qingfu was resentful.

Li Fu glanced at Liu Qingfu coldly, secretly disdainful. If others are just unreasonable to you, you will kill them alive. It's so big.

The generals reprimanded angrily, Yang Miaozhen didn't say a word, Liu Qingfu and Guoan glanced at each other, and after a while, Guoan spoke with this.

"Entang, Emperor Zhao Kuo of the Song Dynasty has just died of illness, and the crown prince Zhao Hong has ascended the throne. Although Zhao Hong defeated Shi Miyuan, the two tigers competed, and the Song court must have suffered a great injury. It's time to make a difficulty! ”

Entang seems to have too many scruples about Zhao Hong, the emperor of the Song Dynasty.

"Entang, Enfu sent me from Qingzhou to take advantage of the civil strife in the Song Dynasty and have no time to take care of Chuzhou, so that I can assist Entang in killing Xu Guo and force the Song Court to send another official to reverse the current predicament of my loyal army."

Liu Qingfu finally stopped hiding it and told the purpose of the trip.

As he spoke, the cruelty in his eyes flashed.

"Yes, it's time to kill Xu Guo, the dog thief! Let Song Ting know that my loyal army is not easy to bully! ”

"If you don't kill Xu Guo, how can you convince your brothers? Kill him! ”

The generals shouted arrogantly and excitedly, and most of them were in favor of killing Xu Guo, so that the imperial court did not dare to snub the loyal army.

"Don't forget, Xu Guo is the Huaidong envoy of the Song Dynasty, and he killed him rashly, but he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to eat and go around!"

Li Fu, the deputy general who had been sullen and yawning, said it angrily.

Li Fu is Li Quan's second brother, and when he opened his mouth, someone immediately echoed him.

"The second brother is right! There is no need to take risks, why don't you let people probe the tone of Emperor Song first? ”

The general Shi Qing was exquisite, and followed Li Fu to say.

"What Shi Qing said is true! Emperor Song has just ascended the throne, otherwise let's play together, maybe Emperor Song will recall Xu Guo and give us an explanation. ”

openly killed important officials of the court, Yan Tong, like Shi Qing, was also hesitant.

Unlike Li Quan and Liu Qingfu, Shi Qing and Yan Tong don't have such great ambitions, they just want their wives and children to be hot on the kang, and they don't want to go through those bloody adventures again.

As for Li Fu, he and Liu Qingfu don't agree, and they don't like each other no matter how they look at each other.

"If you don't give the Great Song Dynasty a little power, how can you let them look up to it? What the Enfu decides, you dare to oppose too? ”

Liu Qingfu had a dark face, his eyes were hideous, and his black tower-like body shape was intimidating.

He turned his gaze to the generals in the hall, and Li Fu's cold eyes met, and the two separated.

"What do you mean?"

Yang Miaozhen hesitated, and turned her gaze to the strategist Guoanyong.

If she had put it aside, she would have not hesitated to order Xu Guo to be killed. But since Huaishui and Zhao Hong had a conversation, she has been much more cautious.

"Entang, Emperor Song has just ascended the throne, the Song court is in civil strife, Emperor Song is too busy to take care of himself, and it is the right time to kill Xu Guo at this time. Once the court settles down, it will be too late to deal with Xu Guo. ”

"Guoan is right! When the interruption continues, it is chaotic. Euntang, give the order! ”

Liu Qingfu couldn't wait and was the first to shout.

As for the timid civil officials and doctors in the Great Song Dynasty, and the Song Emperor who was full of money, what can they do with the loyal and righteous army that is strong and strong?

angered them, waved his troops south, and turned him upside down.

"That Emperor Song, I'm afraid it's not easy to deal with. I don't want to fall into a relationship with him. ”

The generals were in high spirits, but Yang Miaozhen had a gloomy face and whispered.

Ambition and power are deadly.

Zhao Hong's words rang in her ears again.

The knife licks the blood from birth to death, isn't it just to enjoy wealth and worry-free life?

"Entang, Enfu has issued a military order, let's follow the order!"

"Entang, Emperor Song has just ascended the throne, so he can't take care of so much. If you don't kill Xu Guo, the brothers will have no way to live. Think twice! ”

"Entang, today is Chinese New Year's Eve, a good time! After this village, there is no such shop! ”

Liu Qingfu and Liu Quan, including Guoanyong and others, were all persuaded.

The younger brother had already given the military order, and Li Fu had a black face and never said anything again.

"As a last resort, it seems that this is the only way to go."

Seeing that Li Fu did not object, Yang Miaozhen was helpless, and finally nodded.

She couldn't disobey Li Quan's military order and broke his face. Besides, if Xu Guo is tossed like this again, not to mention that the money and food cannot be obtained, the military spirit of the Shandong Loyal and Righteous Army will be dispersed.

The acquisition of food and salary was an important "basis" for the survival and development of the Loyal and Righteous Army, and it was also an important resource for the Song Dynasty to control the Loyal and Righteous Army. The Song court distributed 30,000 people of grain to the loyal army, and without this money and food, the survival of the loyal army would be a problem.

The 20,000 or 30,000 brothers and their families of the Chuzhou Loyal and Righteous Army are all waiting for the rice of the Great Song Dynasty to live!

"Entang, give the order!"

"Entang, make a quick decision!"

The generals spoke one after another, and Shi Qing and Yan Tong, who were opposed, did not dare to refute, so they could only nod their heads and say yes.

I don't know, will this risky move work?

"Liu Qingfu, you and Guoan will arrange to monitor the movements of the Song army, kill Xu Guo early tomorrow morning, and control Chuzhou City. I will then go to the court to see how the Song court responds. ”

Once she made up her mind, Yang Miaozhen did not hesitate and made a decision immediately.

"Entang rest assured! It's on me! ”

Liu Qingfu's eyes lit up, and he accepted the order.

When the time comes, not to mention killing Xu Guo, he will also take the life of Xu Guo's staff member Zhang Mengxian to avenge the humiliation of the day.

The generals were excited and eager to try. Yang Miaozhen saw it in her eyes, but she was worried.

Killing the officials of the imperial court, offending the court of the Great Song Dynasty, offending the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, the outcome is unpredictable.

It seems that she has to think about how to explain to the Great Song Dynasty and Zhao Hong, the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, afterwards.

On the Chinese New Year's Eve of the seventeenth year of Jiading of the Great Song Dynasty, in Chuzhou, an important town on the eastern border of the Great Song Huai, the loyal and righteous army Li all went into chaos, and the thick smoke and fire in the city were all overwhelmed. Huaidong made Xu Guo flee for his life in a hurry, and hanged himself on the way to escape, and his family members were killed. Li Quanquan killed Liu Qingfu and Xu Guo's staff Zhang Mengxian, set fire to the treasury, and all the savings in the city were seized by the rebels.

All the generals of Li jointly played, saying that the rebellion in Chuzhou was the first to attack and persecute the Huaidong system, and asked the Song court to send another capable official to control Huaidong, and the world was shaken for a while.
