Wu Xi closed the four doors tightly and retreated to defend in order to resist the rebellious army. Han Shizhong commanded the three armies to reorganize their troops and attack the city. For a time, there were many ladders, rushing cars rumbling, and the deafening shouts of killing continued, as if the city was going to be submerged.

General Li Bao held a chain meteor hammer in his hand, climbed the wall and ladder, and bravely charged forward to the enemy formation. Wu Xi ordered the soldiers defending the city to prepare artillery ash and throw wood down the head of the city, and the smoke and dust rose under the city, and the Song soldiers who attacked the city instantly killed and injured a lot.

Marshal Han was furious and ordered his soldiers to form a sword and shield formation and continue to attack the city. Wu Xi held the city pass with his hand, and saw that the Song soldiers were advancing with a strong shield on their heads. He immediately let the soldiers cast a large net and tightly cover the besieging Song soldiers. There were crooked barbs on the big net, and after Song Bing's clothes were hung, his body was unable to move. At this time, the soldiers in the city used knives when they were close and spears when they were far away, and they repelled the second attack of Han Shizhong's soldiers.

This conventional offensive is nothing, in order to prevent Han Shizhong from attacking the city, Wu Xi deliberately set up four copper tripod cauldrons at the head of the city, and the cauldron was full of hot oil. In order to enhance the lethality, Wu Xi boiled the animal bones, bird feathers, dead branches, and residual leaves collected in the mountains into a poisonous juice with arrow poison.

This poisonous juice rots when it touches the skin, and it is difficult to cure. Song Bing was impregnated with poisonous juice and suffered unspeakably. The brave general Li Bao was almost contaminated with poisonous juice. He dodged left and right in mid-air, his body unstable, and he fell. Seeing this, Fu Tianpeng cast the Harrier Lingyun, kicked his feet into the air, and he grabbed Li Bao's Legion with both hands and saved him steadily.

Wu Xi watched the retreating Song soldiers at the head of the city, and he laughed at Han Shizhong, looking very proud. When Han Shizhong saw Wu Xi provoking him, his face turned blue with anger, and after taking off his handsome robe, he wanted to climb the ladder to capture the thief in person.

At this time, the generals said to Han Shizhong: "You are the commander of the three armies, it is related to the safety of the whole army, how can you easily make a mistake, if there is anything wrong, it will not only ruin the marshal's reputation, but also greatly reduce the prestige of our army." ”

Han Shizhong's brows furrowed, and his heart was heavy. He could not understand the painstaking efforts of the soldiers, but if he could not break through the city in time, it would be extremely unfavorable to our side under the confrontation.

Zhao Xueqing said to Han Shizhong: "Father-in-law, Wu Xi's rebels have thwarted our army's two attacks in a row, and his arrogance is flourishing. ”

Han Shizhong ordered the troops to retreat, and the Song soldiers packed up their weapons, protected the wounded, and retreated fifty miles to set up camp. Back in the camp, Han Shizhong remembered Wu Xi's arrogant face, and he was so angry that he got up. He immediately asked the generals in the battalion if there was any good way to break the enemy and take the city.

Zhao Xueqing knew that what Wu Xi relied on was the poisonous juice that eroded the skin and soaked the bones, as long as he did a good job of protection, and then sent a fierce general to the top of the city to kill the rebels along the city, he could let the army take Bashu in one go.

After thinking about it for a long time, Zhao Xueqing designed a pullover suit, which was made of green sails to tightly protect the whole person's body and face. In order to increase the toughness and wear-resistance of the protective clothing, Zhao Xueqing asked Marshal Han to soak the protective clothing in oil repeatedly.

After the protective suit was designed, Han Shizhong and the joint venture generals praised Zhao Xueqing again and again, and with it, they could prevent the rebels from harming our army with poisonous juice. However, Han Shizhong's heart did not succeed in finding out who to send and how to quickly kick up the city to achieve a surprise effect.

Zhao Xueqing offered Han Shizhong a plan to increase the throwing height of the thunderbolt cart with bison tendons and machine springs, so that the siege generals could use the thunderbolt to climb to the top of the city, as long as the attack went well, then the follow-up would be a matter of course.

After the plan stopped, Marshal Han glanced at the generals of the joint venture, who could take on this important task. As soon as his words fell, Fu Tianpeng stood up. He clasped his hands into fists, bowed down, and said to Han Shizhong: "Marshal, Tianpeng is willing to be a pioneer and eliminate thieves for the country." ”

Han Shizhong smiled, and he asked Fu Tianpeng and the generals of the joint camp to rest well and attack the city in three days. After resting, Han Shizhong ordered the three armies, and the troops went out of the gate, and the team marched towards Shucheng in a mighty way.

Wu Xi saw Han Shizhong making a comeback, and he scolded at the head of the city: "Han Shizhong, if you have any means, just use it." I'm going to wipe you out this time. ”

After that, Wu Xi ordered the soldiers to beat the war drums, and the crossbowmen lined up in a line, waiting for the battle at the head of the city.

Han Shizhong held the reins of his horse under the city and reprimanded Wu Xi and said: "Wu Xi, you are the king according to Shu and openly rebel against the Song Dynasty. Insulting the reputation of the ancestors, now seeing the army of the Celestial Empire, not only do you not live up to the guilt of Jing Plea, but gather troops to resist. This time, I will lead the Wang Division, and I will definitely capture and send you and other traitors back to Beijing. ”

After listening to Han Shizhong's words, Wu Xi spat at the city. He still said as before, and asked Han Shizhong to let the horse come over, and he raised his sword to take it.

Han Shizhong waved his hand, and the flag ordered the soldiers to shake the big flag. In an uproar, only the Chinese army moved closer to both sides, and after a while, more than a dozen Song soldiers came out pushing a thunderbolt car. Han Shizhong ordered Fu Tianpeng, and Fu Tianpeng said to Han Shizhong in a green sail suit: "Pioneer Fu Tianpeng, meet the marshal." ”

Han Shizhong said to Fu Tianpeng with a straight expression: "The pioneer Fu Tianpeng listened to the order, and now there is a traitor Wu Xi who is the king of Shu and openly betrays the Song Dynasty. Now I will send you to attack the enemy city and help the three armies to destroy the thieves with all their might, and there will be no mistake. ”

Fu Tianpeng spoke loudly, and he told Han Shizhong that he would definitely not dishonor the military order and go all out to capture the thief. After getting ready, Fu Tianpeng stood at one end of the thunderbolt car, and all the soldiers worked together to press down the lever, touch the spring, and Fu Tianpeng chased the clouds and volleyed up in the sky month by moon.

Wu Xi and the soldiers defending the city saw Fu Tianpeng flipping a few times in the air, their eyes were staring blankly, and they didn't relax for a long time. After his body was close to the city wall, Fu Tianpeng climbed along with both hands and jumped onto the top of the city.

At this time, Wu Xi knew that the enemy was at present, and he hurriedly commanded all the soldiers to release arrows. However, the green sail clothes worn by Fu Tianpeng were invulnerable, and the arrows fell down one after another after hitting it. Fu Tianpeng showed the blue wave treasure knife, the cold light flashed, and the people were killed.

Seeing that Fu Tianpeng was unstoppable, the soldiers all avoided it backwards like a low tide. Wu Xi drew his sword and beheaded a soldier beside him, and continued to order the soldiers to besiege Fu Tianpeng. Fu Tianpeng said to the generals: "Brothers, Wu Xi rebelled and betrayed the Song Dynasty, and his crime should be punished. As the generals of the Great Song Dynasty, you should share your worries for the king. You should join me in the rebellion and get rid of the thieves for the country. ”

After Wu Xi listened to Fu Tianpeng's words, his face was as frightened as dirt. He held his sword and looked left and right, and said to the soldiers with a trembling voice: "If you don't listen to this kid's demagoguery, you will open your bow and turn back without arrows, and disarming your weapons can only lead to a dead end." ”

Many of the soldiers looked at each other with their weapons, and they couldn't make up their minds for a while. At this time, the city gate had been opened by the Song soldiers who had attacked, and Han Shizhong came to his horse and told the soldiers in an impassioned manner,

As long as he puts down his sword, he can use his own reputation to make a statement to the court, asking the Holy Lord to be free from the past.

Han Shizhong's heartfelt words made many soldiers put down their blades. Seeing this, Wu Xi scolded these shameless. Fu Tianpeng saw that Wu Xi's general trend was gone, but he was still obsessed, he jumped forward with an arrow step, and knocked out the sword in Wu Xi's hand with one palm. With a twist of his backhand, he made the overlord unload his armor and capture Wu Xi on the spot.

After Han Shizhong's soldiers entered the city, they immediately went to Wu Xi's mansion to discuss matters. He selected the best and the best to find talents for the governance of Shuzhong, and then ordered the soldiers to camp outside the city and not disturb the place. The people of Shuzhong saw that Han Shizhong governed the army well, and praised them one after another.

After purging local affairs, Han Shizhong led his troops to rest for a while, and then set off for the Two Wolves Pass. Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing, as well as General Li Bao, escorted the rebellious Wu Xi back to Beijing. Wang Shi returned to the dynasty in victory, Emperor Gaozong was very happy, he rewarded the three armies with wine and fruits, Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing had meritorious service in quelling the rebellion, and were promoted to Dingyuan generals. Han Shizhong and Li Bao were rewarded separately.

Just when the whole Beijing division was immersed in joy, there was a person who was like a thorn in his back and restless, and this person was the prime minister Qin Hui. After Qin Hui united with a group of ministers in the court to frame Zhao Ding, he jumped up and replaced him. Now except for Gaozong, he is the only one in the court. Qin Hui's power leaned towards the government and the opposition, jealousy of the virtuous and jealous, and the exclusion of dissidents, making the Great Song Dynasty precarious.

Wu Xi's stupidity did not burn with the flames of rebellion, Han Shizhong, Fu Tianpeng and others took advantage of this opportunity to rise to prominence even more, and Qin Hui was so angry that he gritted his teeth. When he left the northern country, he swore to the old wolf lord that after returning to the Southern Dynasty, he would do everything possible to disrupt the situation and let the Song Dynasty collapse without a fight.

However, with loyal and enthusiastic courtiers such as the old marshal Zongze, Taishi Li Gang, Prime Minister Zhao Ding, Marshal Han Shizhong and Yue Fei, Qin Hui has never had a chance to succeed in his conspiracy. Although Zong Ze is dead, Li Gang and Zhao Ding are dismissed, Han Shizhong and Yue Fei are still there, these two people are a thorn in his side and a thorn in his flesh.

In order to make the situation turbulent, Qin Hui thought about it and decided to adopt the strategy of killing people with a knife.

He sent someone to secretly find Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan with a book, and deeply sympathized with their hard work in garrisoning and training outside. In the letter, Qin Hui praised the Huaixi Army as the mainstay of the Great Song Dynasty, and all generals should be added to the ranks. At the end of the article, Qin Hui said that Fu Tianpeng and the grass people could become the official rank of the fifth grade.

After Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan read the letter, they smashed the tea bowl on the table. Miao Fu said to Liu Zhengyan: "Fu Tianpeng, a cloth and grass person, can actually get the favor of the saint. You and I endure frost and snow, and lead troops to fight outside all the year round, and they are not as big as his official rank, which is simply unreasonable. ”

Liu Zhengyan nodded, and he asked Miao Fu to play with him, and let the court give an explanation for this matter. Miao Fu agreed with Liu Zhengyan's idea, and the two immediately repaired the book, wrote the letter and handed it to Qin Hui's cronies.

Before leaving, Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan once again explained to Qin Hui's cronies that they must let Xiangye mediate and seek justice for them.

After Qin Hui received the letter, he imitated the handwriting of Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan, and wrote the wording in the letter very arrogantly and rudely. Then, Qin Hui sealed the letter with fire paint and entered the palace to face the saint. When Gaozong saw Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan's letter, he was furious.

He sent an order to the military department Shangshu Wang Shu, asking him to send soldiers to crusade against the second general Miao Liu. Qin Hui got the news and told Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan that after the saint saw the letter, he was furious about the two of them asking for an explanation, and he accused it of being a rebellious act. The Ministry of War has been informed that troops will soon be sent to recruit troops.

Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan held the key point in their hands, and the two of them were determined to rather be broken than broken. sent troops to attack the state and plundered the mansion, burned and killed all the way, and went straight to the capital.
