Chapter 45: Fueling the Flames

Qin Hui courted the court, and asked Gaozong to issue a decree ordering Yue Fei to send troops to recruit Yang Mi in Dongting. Yue Fei was worried about this matter, and Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing went in to ask to see him. After Yue Shuai handed the holy decree to the two of them, Fu Tianpeng told Yue Fei with a nervous expression, Yang Gangism Bo Yuntian, we will never do such an unrighteous thing.

Zhao Xueqing told Fu Tianpeng not to worry, because Yue Shuai was also in a dilemma. After the three of them sat down, they thought carefully about the solution. After a long silence, Zhao Xueqing said to Yue Fei: "I thought of a plan to delay the army."

As soon as Zhao Xueqing said this, Yue Fei's eyes lit up. He hurriedly asked about the specific steps of the strategy.

Zhao Xueqing replied: "Yue Shuai, the imperial court asked you to encircle and suppress the Heavenly King Gang. If you don't provoke it, you will not obey the order. provoked the initiative with Yang Gang, and hurt the harmony between each other. I don't think it's better to feint and watch things change before planning the next step. ”

After listening to Zhao Xueqing's strategy, Yue Fei expressed his approval, and now he just needs to look at it one step at a time, depending on the development of the situation, and then make a difference. So, Yue Fei asked Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing to secretly enter the Tianwang Gang, greet the Yang gang leader, and cooperate with each other.

After Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing arrived at the Tianwang Gang, Yang Mi entertained them very warmly. During the banquet, Fu Tianpeng told himself the purpose of his trip. Yang Mi learned that it was Qin Hui who confused Shengcong, so that Yue Shuai was in a dilemma, and he was furious: "Qin Hui, this guy bullied the king and harmed the people, when he said that he killed the Jin soldiers and guards at the Yellow River crossing and fled back, I think it is a big lie. The old thief is clearly a spy of the Jin Kingdom. He learned from Wang Boyan, a teacher, and his apprentice was no better. He proposed that the south is from the south, and the north is from the north. It's simply a rebellious act of defection. ”

Fu Tianpeng knew that the Yang gang leader was deeply traitorous and suffered, and he felt this situation himself. So he comforted Yang Mi and told Yang Gang Leader that as long as the hot-blooded people worked together, they would definitely be able to change the Qingkun and make the court peaceful.

After Yang Qi smiled bitterly, he told Fu Tianpeng that he was very grateful to Yue Shuai for his hard work, and the operation and planning of specific matters were decided by Yue Shuai. Fu Tianpeng's face was full of joy, and immediately after bidding farewell to Yang Mi with Zhao Xueqing, he returned to Yue Fei's camp.

The next night, Yue Fei ordered the drums to gather the generals, and after ordering the warships, he left the village and marched towards the Dongting Lake Heavenly King Gang. When Yang Qi learned that Yue Fei had attacked his outpost Shuizhai, he immediately sent hundreds of warships to meet him. The two sides fought on Dongting Lake, and for a time the war drums rumbled and there were bursts of shouts. The quiet night was torn open by the firelight, and the reddish waves rippled into the distance.

Qin Hui learned that Yue Fei had set up camp and went to Dongting Lake, and was about to send someone to investigate the battle situation. At this time, someone suddenly came in to report to him, and Meng He, the general of the Huaixi battalion, asked to see him. At this moment, there is another person in Qin Hui's living room, and he is Huang Qi of the Tianwang Gang.

Huang Qi came to Qin Hui because he wanted him to help him get rid of Yang Qi, on the condition that the Heavenly King Gang would obey Qin Hui's words in the future. Qin Hui knew that now that the Heavenly King Gang and Yue Fei were fighting, if they wanted to get rid of Yang Qi, they had to attack Yue Fei first.

Therefore, Qin Hui secretly instructed Huang Qi to personally go to Dongting Lake to check the battle situation, write it down and submit it to him. The two discussed for a long time, and the subordinates were still waiting for Qin Hui's reply, but Qin Hui didn't seem to see it. In fact, Qin Hui had other plans, he wanted to give the generals of Huaixi a dismount.

After Huang Qi left, Qin Hui unhurriedly asked his subordinates to invite Meng He in. After Meng He saw Qin Hui, Qin Hui's attitude towards him was very arrogant. The qi in Meng He's heart was accumulating more and more, and he asked Qin Hui why he was doing this to him.

Qin Hui asked Meng He rhetorically, the purpose of his trip was to ask why he allocated grain and grass to Han Shizhong and Yue Fei's camp and distributed supplies. Meng He saw that Qin Hui had said what was on his mind, so he asked him straight to the point what was going on?

Faced with Meng He's questioning, Qin Hui told him that this was Han Shizhong and Yue Fei to Shengshang Li Chen, and they could not allocate a single penny or grain to the Huaixi Army. Meng He listened to Qin Hui's statement, tilted his head, and stared at him with scrutinizing eyes.

Qin Hui looked at his face and immediately understood Meng He's intentions. He told Meng He that Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan could not be compared with Han Shizhong and Yue Fei in terms of army command and military exploits, so the grain, grass and materials were still given to the soldiers at the front, so that they could get what they wanted.

After hearing this, Meng He was angry. He said to Qin Hui: "Lord Qin, Han Shizhong and Yue Fei are also too deceitful. They are also generals who lead troops to fight, and it is a humiliation for our Huaixi generals to say such things. The place where they are stationed is a forward fortress, and our Huaixi Army is still shouldering the heavy responsibility of resisting the Jin State and defending against the puppet Qi. ”

Qin Hui tried his best to provoke and instigate, he saw that Meng He was angry, and he was secretly happy in his heart. However, Qin Hui's face did not show it, and he told Meng He to go back and tell the two generals Miao and Liu truthfully, and submit the necessary grain, grass and other materials, and he would administer justice to the soldiers of Huaixi.

After Meng He thanked him again and again, he said goodbye to Qin Hui and went back. At this moment, Qin Hui immediately repaired a book, and secretly sent his henchmen to the Golden Vulture camp to deliver the letter. After receiving the letter, a smile appeared on the face of the golden vulture. He ordered someone to find the military advisor Hami Chi and discuss with him the plan to attack the Song Dynasty.

Hamichi told Jin Wuxuan that this attack on the Southern Song Dynasty, while making adequate preparations, should be adopted in a more flowering way, and Qin Hui should be responsible for inciting the rebellion of the Huaixi Army. Wu Xi rebelled against the Song Dynasty before, and now he has entered Shu. I think the Four Wolf Lords should send someone to contact him and ask Wu Xi to send troops to attack Jing Chu. Liu Yu can unite with our Dajin Kingdom in this way and attack all the cities along the river. In this way, the Southern Song Dynasty army is tired of coping, and I think that Han Shizhong and Yue Fei are Lu Wang's regeneration, and there is nothing they can do.

Jin Wuxuan clapped his hands and laughed after hearing Hami's words, and he was ready to start implementing this plan immediately. However, Hamichi told Jin Wuxuan that before sending troops, there was a big thing to do. If this matter can be handled satisfactorily, then when attacking Song, it will also reduce a lot of resistance.

Hamichi's words puzzled Jin Wuxuan, and he hurriedly asked Hamichi what it was that was so important. Hami replied to Jin Wuxuan, the reason why the Four Wolves Lord sent troops to Jiangnan and suffered consecutive defeats was that some people in our battalion were determined to serve the Southern Song Dynasty. If you don't get rid of such people as soon as possible, I don't know what unexpected things will happen.

When Jin Wushu heard Hamichi say this, he immediately understood that the person he was talking about was Shi Yisheng. This time he went south to attack the Song Dynasty, and Jin Wushu not only lost his soldiers, but also lost Lu Qiang's life. All of this is a ghost secretly made by Hu Yantong and Shi Yisheng, so those who are not conducive to the hegemony of the Jin State must be severely punished.

Jin Wushu ordered Shi Yisheng to be escorted to the tent, and the soldiers brought him in after a while. I saw him wearing a single coat and standing unkempt in the middle of the handsome tent. His hands and feet were shackled, and although he was covered in scars, he still looked grim.

Hami Chi withdrew his soldiers and walked in front of Shi Yisheng with a smile. Hamichi said to him: "Mr. Shi, I heard that you have been studying the marching formation for many years, and you have done your best to write a "Marching Strategy". As long as you are willing to give this book to our Four Wolf Lords, he will definitely not be guilty of your crimes. What do you think, sir? ”

After Shi Yisheng heard Hami's words, he immediately frowned at him angrily. He told Hami Chi that he wanted to follow Yang Bang's example and leave a name in history, he was born a native of the Great Song Dynasty and died a ghost of the Great Song Dynasty. It's wishful thinking to get "The Essentials of the March".

Seeing that Shi Yisheng refused to give in to the end of his life, Jin Wushu took the case and immediately asked the soldiers to drag Shi Yisheng out of the tent, wanting to kill him. In the face of the boiling Ding Wok, Shi Yisheng was not afraid at all, he scolded Jin Wu for dying after surgery.

After Shi Yi's death, Hami sent someone to turn Shi Yisheng's residence upside down, and he didn't find "The Marching Strategy", at this time he patted his head and scolded stupidity. Hami returned to the handsome tent of the Golden Vulture and said to him, "Four wolf lords, I am really confused. Shi Yisheng has always been hostile to our Jin Kingdom. How could he put such an important thing as "The Essentials of the March" here with us, I think there is a chance that this book is in his hometown of Putian, Fujian. ”

Jin Wushu also believed that he had already carried out a strict inspection of the Song people who entered and exited his barracks, and it was impossible for them to take the "March Strategy" out, and Shi Yisheng acted so cautiously, the person entrusted to him must be a person who could take on a great responsibility for both civil and military affairs. He had never had much contact with the Southern Song Dynasty, so it was unlikely that he would give the book to others in a short period of time.

Hamichi stretched out his thumb and praised the analysis of the Golden Vulture for being reasonable. In order to capture the "March Strategy", Jin Wushu ordered the killers of Wujiantang to go to Fujian and go to Shi Yisheng's former residence to search for it.

After the news of Shi Yisheng being killed by the Jin people spread, the loyal people were all moved by his noble integrity. At the same time that the two marshals, Han Shizhong and Yue Fei, erected a monument for him, and asked Gaozong to praise Shi Yisheng. Gaozong thanked him for his merits and named him a loyal and righteous duke.

When Fu Tianpeng learned that Shi Yi's life was in the hands of the Golden Vulture, his eyes breathed fire, and he was determined to avenge Shi Yisheng. He took out the poem that Shi Yisheng handed over to Wang Zuo, and tears "fluttered" down, wetting the paper.

At this time, at the end of the paper on which the poem was written, a row of dense small characters appeared. Fu Tianpeng stopped crying and handed the paper to Yue Fei. Yue Fei saw that the paper read: "The Essentials of the March" is in the old house at No. 15 Xinghua Ancient Street, Putian, near a broken turn of the thatched house. ”

Yue Fei said to Fu Tianpeng: "Please ask the two knights to go to Putian to track down the whereabouts of the "March Strategy", and not let this book fall into the hands of the Jin people." Second, to help Marshal Han Shizhong find General Li Bao. He should have returned, but he has not been heard from since. ”

Fu Tianpeng told Marshal Yue Fei that since he parted ways with General Li Bao in Southern Shaolin, he was also very concerned about his safety. It is just the opportunity to visit Putian. Yue Fei nodded, and after he asked Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing to recuperate, he set off for Putian as soon as possible.
