…

After listening to Chen Xizhen's narration of the magic of the Jiuyang Divine Bell, Yun Tianbiao and the others were dumbfounded!

They finally understood why Chen Xizhen didn't build a brick city, set up a trench or set up a fence here at Zhangjiadaokou, because Gai had this magic bell, he didn't need these things at all.

This made Yun Tianbiao's doubts disappear.

However, not long after Chen Xizhen left, Yun Tianbiao's suspicions arose again:

"Chen Xizhen's daughter is Jiang Yan's concubine, and his relative Liu Guang's family is also a thief, although he said that he had a grudge against Lin Chong for killing his brother, but Chen Xiyi died of illness in the end, and he insisted on relying on Lin Chong to fall down, but if it has nothing to do with Lin Chong, it has nothing to do with it; What he said is that since he is loyal and righteous, he will not be a robber, and if he is a robber, he will not be considered loyal, which is indeed reasonable, but he has been the owner of the ape arm village for three years, and he can be regarded as a robber......"

However, Yun Tianbiao can't classify Chen Xizhen into the ranks of robbers because of this, after all, Chen Xizhen has been the owner of the Ape Arm Village for three years, and the Ape Arm Village has not been an enemy of the official army; Nor did they loot villages and towns or harm civilians; There is no fornication with Shuibo Liangshan, Manichaeism, Longhu Mountain, Fangshan and other bandits.

The key is that Chen Xizhen is recruited by Gao Yu, if Yun Tianbiao doubts Chen Xizhen, it is tantamount to doubting Gao Yu, his biggest backstage in the Zhao and Song Dynasty.

Be.

The seed master Dao also appreciates Yun Tianbiao.

But the influence of the Dao of the Seed Master is now only in the Western Army, in the Zhao and Song Dynasty courts, how can the Dao of the Seed Master be compared with Gao Yu?

The key point is that Chen Xizhen did not lie to Yun Tianbiao, and even said the role of the Jiuyang Divine Bell, which does not look like ill intentions.

To be honest, Yun Tianbiao shouldn't actually doubt Chen Xizhen.

But Yun Tianbiao really couldn't help but doubt Chen Xizhen.

After thinking about it, Yun Tianbiao brought Fenghui, Ouyang Shoutong, Ha Lansheng, Ha Yunsheng, Mian Yixin, Ma Yuan, Huang Fuxiong and others over to discuss.

Listening to Yun Tianbiao talk about his concerns, Haransheng said: "I have no problem with Chief Chen, he seems to be a master, not like a traitorous villain. ”

Feng Hui hesitated for a moment, and echoed Yun Tianbiao: "It's always right to be cautious. ”

Ha Yunsheng proposed: "Otherwise, I will only care about the team of people and horses, and then go down to the village, and then look at the reality and reality?" ”

Yun Tianbiao said: "Only by seeing through the reality and then entering the army, how can there be an advanced soldier and then look at the truth of the reality?" ”

Ma Yuan said: "However, it is too detailed, and it is also a disease." If we can't leave Yizhou for Xingren Mansion as soon as possible and delay the military period, we will be punished by Gao Taiwei for the crime of delaying the military plane. ”

Huang Puxiong also said: "If it is because I don't trust Chen Xizhen, and then force Chen Xizhen to rebel and go to Liangshan thieves, not to mention that Gao Taiwei will not be able to tolerate us, it is this Yizhou, we are only afraid that we will not be able to pass, you must not forget, now Xiao Jiasui's gang is still hanging behind, if the two of them are flanked back and forth, how can we be undefeated?" ”

Ouyang Shou channel: "Left is not good, right is not good, I am afraid of his magic bell, our army will not all enter, I will lead a partial division first, take advantage of his unpreparedness, quietly enter, demolish his bell tower and then enter the army?" ”

Yun Tianbiao shook his head.

This must not be done.

You must know that now it is only Yun Tianbiao who is suspicious, and it is a suspicion without evidence and no signs.

Once they are really so reckless, they will definitely offend Chen Xizhen to death, if they really force Chen Xizhen to the point of throwing themselves into the water and Boliang Mountain, then they will be self-defeating and do the most stupid thing.

What's more, Chen Xizhen said when he left, when they crossed the Zhangjia Road crossing, they would use the Jiuyang Divine Bell to deal with Xiao Jiasui and them, if Chen Xizhen succeeded, not to mention breaking Jiang Hongfei's arm, how could he also break Jiang Hongfei's finger.

Then they smashed the Jiuyang Divine Bell, that is, they abandoned their martial arts, asked for hardship, and even found their own way to die.

After thinking for a long time, Yun Tianbiao said: "His Jiuyang Divine Bell hit it with a bang, within a radius of one mile, but when he flew away from the living creatures, he was drunk and couldn't move. Then we will divide the army into ten armies, each marching at intervals of two miles, so that even if he is deceitful, he will harm only one army at most. ”

Ma Yuan said: "But this, I'm afraid that I can still be seen by Manager Chen, are we guarding against him?" ”

Yun Tianbiao said lightly: "If you see it, you can see it, be careful to sail the 10,000-year-old ship, I have to be responsible for our seventy or eighty thousand horses." ”

In fact, Yun Tianbiao also felt from the bottom of his heart that he was a little inauthentic in doing this.

After all, not long ago, he asked Chen Xizhen for help, and Chen Xizhen immediately led 10,000 elite soldiers to reinforce him, allowing him to get rid of the difficult Xiao Jiasui.

Therefore, after hesitating again and again, Yun Tianbiao wanted to add again: "I have already taken the overall situation into account, otherwise, out of safety, I will send someone to destroy the divine bell, or teach Chief Chen to put away the divine bell and pass this Zhangjia road crossing." ”

No one answered Yun Tianbiao's words.

Because most people think that Yun Tianbiao is making a big fuss.

Only a small number of people support Yun Tianbiao, but they also feel that Yun Tianbiao will definitely offend Chen Xizhen by doing so.

No matter what.

Under Yun Tianbiao's suggestion, whether it was the people of Zhengyi Village or the people of Qinghal Mountain, they were all divided into seven or eight thousand teams, each team was two miles apart, followed by the 10,000 elite soldiers led by Chen Xizhen, and marched towards the Zhangjia Road crossing.

At this time, the sky will be dark immediately, the night clouds are four, the stars are dark, looking at the Zhangjia road crossing, there is nothing in the black hole, only the bell tower is lit with lights, more than ten miles away can be seen.

A short time later, the moon rose.

By the bright moonlight, Ha Lansheng led seven or eight thousand people from Zhengyi Village to walk into the range of Zhangjiadaokou.

After an interval of about two miles, Ha Yunsheng also led seven or eight thousand people from Zhengyi Village into the range of Zhangjiadaokou.

Next, the men and horses of Zhengyi Village and Qinghal Mountain marched in turn, and Yun Tianbiao, Fenghui and Ouyang Shoutong led their headquarters to the rear of the palace.

Ha Lansheng, who walked in the front, soon came to the bottom of the Jiuyang Divine Bell, he looked up, and saw that the divine bell was on Yugong Mountain outside the west gate of Xinliu City, the mountain was two miles high, and the divine bell was on the top of the mountain, seven miles away from the city. One hundred and forty-four steps around the bell tower, all of them are blocked by red walls; Inside and outside, there were five hundred bell guards; The leader of the bell guard, Ha Lansheng also recognized, was Gou Ying, the general under Chen Xizhen.

Harlan Sheng observed for a while, the mountain was steep, and he was eager to attack the mountain and destroy the Jiuyang Divine Bell but couldn't.

After walking more than a mile away from the Jiuyang Divine Bell, Harlan was relieved.

This time, Harlan Sheng felt even more that it was Yun Tianbiao who spent Chen Xizhen's belly with the heart of a villain.

Next, Ha Lansheng confidently and boldly led his seven or eight thousand men and horses to continue walking along the Zhangjia Road Crossing to the outside of Yizhou.

The people behind were all secretly relieved when they saw that Harlan Sheng and them had successfully passed through the Zhangjia Road Pass.

Ma Yuan even proposed to Yun Tianbiao: "Manager Chen should be fine, why don't we go together?" ”

Yun Tianbiao shook his head: "I have already offended Chen Daozi, and after we all pass through the Zhangjia Daokou smoothly, I will make amends to him." ”

Due to Yun Tianbiao's insistence, the people of Qinghal Mountain continued to divide into seven or eight thousand teams, each team was two miles apart, and headed towards Zhangjiadaokou.

It wasn't until Haransheng, who was at the forefront, that they were more than twenty miles away from Yun Tianbiao and the others who hadn't moved yet, that Yun Tianbiao put his mind at ease, he felt that he was making too much of a fuss, and he must have offended Chen Xizhen, and began to think about how to apologize to Chen Xizhen?

At this time, Feng Hui and Ouyang Shoutong came to Yun Tianbiao's side and asked, "Will our Chinese army also be split?" ”

Yun Tianbiao thought for a while and said, "Forget it, Harlan Sheng and them have walked out for more than 20 miles, and there has been no accident, there should be no problem, and our 20,000 horses will not be separated." ”

As he spoke, Yun Tianbiao was ready to order: The whole army set off!

But at this moment, I only heard the Jiuyang Divine Bell Kunlun breaking the cliff on the first line, and the sound of thunderbolts flying on the ground, and then the master of Zhangjiadaokou under the mountain shouted that the horse neighed, and waited until the Xiyan clouds and the sky were connected, and the sound of flying thunder was loud, like a cymbal falling to the ground, after the golden drum was noisy, with the divine bell as the center, within a radius of nine miles, but flying away the living creatures, they were all drunk and infatuated, and they couldn't move.

Yun Tianbiao and the others looked at the six or seven thousand people and horses in the Halal Mountain, which was not far from them, whether they were people or horses, including the cattle, sheep, pigs, donkeys, mules, chickens, ducks and geese they carried, all of them fell to the ground in a drunken and obsessed manner, unable to move.

Yun Tianbiao was shocked, and hurriedly ordered: "Withdraw quickly!" ”

With Yun Tianbiao's order, less than 20,000 horses under his command immediately retreated ten miles, found a place that was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and went down to the fence.

It wasn't until he confirmed that they were temporarily safe that Yun Tianbiao said: "I said that Chen Xizhen must have a trick, his daughter gave Jiang Yan a few children, can he really be recruited by the imperial court?" But the righteous people who have suffered Zhengyi Village and Halal Mountain will be poisoned. This road is also unbreakable. ”

Feng Hui also palpitated: "The range of his divine bell is definitely not only a mile in radius, but almost ten miles!" Thanks to you to be cautious, otherwise we will follow in the footsteps of Zhengyi Village and Halal Mountain! ”

At this time, the person who was left behind by Yun Tianbiao to check the news came back and reported: "After the army withdrew, thousands of people with scarves came, and they captured all the people in Zhengyi Village and Qinghal Mountain. ”

When Yun Tianbiao heard this, his heart hurt!

The 60,000 horses in Zhengyi Village and Qinghal Mountain were promoted to the capital by him, without these 60,000 horses, how could he be looked down upon by the snobbery again? How could he possibly complete his metamorphosis into a high-ranking officer?

"Alas! I don't know how many years I've had to stay up?! ”

Yun Tianbiao went to the entrances of various villages, caught a few villagers, and asked: "You have lived here for many years, do you know why Chen Xizhen built a bell tower here?" ”

A villager replied: "Although the villain lives here, he really doesn't know the details." The bell tower has never been hit since it was built. I only heard those minions have four lines of songs, chanting: What a Jiuyang bell, just one bang: Song Jun came 10,000 and captured 5,000 pairs alive. I don't know what it means. ”

Hearing this, Yun Tianbiao was full of remorse, if he had sent people to the entrances of the villages to catch the villagers, he would have known where Chen Xizhen and the people from the Ape Arm Village were, and he would not have broken so many people!

But now it's too late to mention this regret, the top priority is how to escape from Shandong through Yizhou to find Gao Yu to meet?

Now, Yun Tianbiao and they are, there are ape arm mountain people led by Chen Xizhen in front of the road, and then there are tens of thousands of chasing soldiers led by Xiao Jiasui and others, in the case of Yun Tianbiao and their loss of morale, if they are outflanked before and after, their 20,000 men and horses are likely to be completely annihilated.

Yun Tianbiao thought for a while and said, "For today's plan, the only way to leave Yizhou is to be stronger than Wei He." ”

Fenghui worried: "If he guards along the Wei River and attacks halfway, our army is afraid that it will suffer a big loss again." ”

Yun Tianbiao said: "It's hard to book, you can only go with the camera." and first make the people split up to find out the path, and then they can be confronted by him. ”

In the evening, the scouts sent out by Yun Tianbiao came one after another to report: "Xiao Jiasui's pursuers are less than thirty miles. Chen Xizhen's Zhen Xianglin, Fan Chenglong, and Di Yun, the owner of the Qingyun Mountain Branch, led 20,000 horses to camp on the west bank of the Wei River, and Chen Xizhen himself was on the other side of the river, leaning on the mountain to set up a village. There is no pontoon bridge in the Wei River, nor is there a single ferry in sight. The camp of Chen Xizhen's army is five battalions, divided into east, west, north, south, and middle, with the begonia flower pattern Anza, Zhen Xianglin, Fan Chenglong, and Di Yun's three battalions, arranged in three talents, and the back is close to the Wei River. ”

Then another scout came to report: "There is not a single person or horse at the Zhangjia road crossing. Looking everywhere on all sides, there is no human figure. It is only ten miles away, there is a bell tower in the middle, and there are a few huts next to it, and I want some soldiers to live, and there is nothing else. No one is allowed to come and go, nor is it audited. ”

Yun Tianbiao asserted: "That Zhangjia crossing must be prepared, don't go and pay attention to him." I'm going to rush out of the Wei River before Xiao Jiasui catches up! ”

The wind will remind: "He camped on his back, there must be a reason, how can we overcome him?" ”

Yun Tianbiao said confidently: "I have a reason to move forward. On the front of the dangerous place to set up camp, our soldiers have just arrived, very sharp, Hugh to fight the general, can fight with him to win. Our troops may be disadvantaged, and they can retreat. ”

The Song generals followed their words, and ordered the three armies to feast on the war meals, pull out the villages, and only three or two miles away from the Wei River, relying on the woods, and set up three camps one by one.

The camp has been decided, Yun Tianbiao said to the Song generals: "Even if you fight with him, you can divide the generals and horses into four teams, and you will get great benefits." ”

All the generals said: "Reasonable." ”

The assignment has been decided, Yun Tianbiao was waiting to lead the troops out of the battle, and suddenly heard the shouts in the right military camp, and the sound of fighting shook the sky, and he came to report again and again: "Hua Rong and Luan Tingyu robbed the village, and they have been killed in the village, and the soldiers and horses don't know where they came from." ”

Yun Tianbiao was shocked, and hurriedly ordered: "The right battalion has been tricked, the Chinese army and the left battalion are resting, and they must not be saved, there must be an external response." But there were foreign thieves who came to grab the second battalion on the left, and they didn't ask how much, they only shot the bow of the divine arm and let him approach the village. ”

Before the words were spoken, the fire had already broken out behind the middle camp, the grain and grass were piled up, and the people and horses were running around.

Yun Tianbiao only taught Xiu to move, and those who moved immediately beheaded, only kept the Chinese army with the divine arm bow, and ordered the left battalion to do the same.

Sure enough, soon Fan Chenglong came to grab the middle camp, Di Yun came to grab the left camp, and the three or five conflicts were all shot back by the divine arm bow and could not be killed.

Not long after, Zhen Xianglin came out from behind the Yuntian Biao camp, took advantage of the situation to set fire to the grain, but was also blocked by the divine arm bow, and could not kill the Chinese army.

Only Hua Rong and Luan Tingyu unexpectedly entered the camp on the right, and cut down whenever they met.

The Song army in the right battalion was not prepared for defense, and was killed by the Fifth Army of Ma and the Sixth Army of Ma on their backs.

Soon, the Fifth Army of Ma and the Sixth Army of Ma joined forces, defeated the right battalion, beheaded countless people, and finally captured Ouyang Shoutong, the general under Yun Tianbiao, alive, and retreated to the back.

Fan Chenglong, Di Yun, and Zhen Xianglin also collected their troops at the same time, and then defended against the water.

At this time, Yun Tianbiao only had more than 10,000 horses left in front of the Wei River surrounded by the Liangshan army, and there was no way to go to the sky and no door to enter the ground......
