…

Jiang Hongfei didn't come alone, in addition to a large number of personal guards around him, Xu Guanzhong, Pei Xuan, Lu Junyi, Chai Jin and other examiners, as well as the people he captured and exchanged from the Zhao Song Dynasty.

That is, Li Gang, Chen Yu, Zhao Ding, Chen Kangbo, Zhan Du, Wang Yu, Liu Qi, Wen Huanzhang, Han Shizhong, Xie Yuan, Wang Sheng, Hu Yantong, Yue Chao, Wu Jue, Wu Xuan, Yang Zheng, Guo Hao, Zhao Li, Li Yanxian (Jiang Hongfei changed his name for Li Xiaozhong), Wang Yan, Zhao Xu, Qiu Xi, Chen Gongfu, etc......

It is worth mentioning that some of these people captured by Jiang Hongfei and exchanged for the Zhao and Song Dynasty have not actually joined Jiang Hongfei.

But Jiang Hongfei was not in a hurry, he felt that Li Gang and others, who had great wisdom, would definitely make a wise choice after understanding what they wanted to do.

Of course, if Li Gang and the others are really stubborn to the point of being undignified, Jiang Hongfei doesn't mind helping them be decent.

After all, talents are valuable, but they are limited to those who work for themselves, otherwise they are enemies, and to be merciful to the enemy is to be cruel to themselves.

Seeing that thousands of people had come to participate in the martial arts held in Shuibo Liangshan, Li Gang and other people from the Zhao and Song dynasties had very complicated feelings!

You must know that Jiang Hongfei is now only in Shandong and Hebei, but there are so many martial artists who come to participate in the martial arts, which is enough to show that there are a large number of people who support Jiang Hongfei's rule.

Jiang Hongfei didn't have a shelf at all, he had a warm smile on his face, his eyes revealed his concern and expectation for every martial artist, and when he met the martial artist he knew, he even took the initiative to communicate cordially, asking them if they were sure of getting a good ranking, and even jokingly praised a certain martial artist for his heroic martial arts and the momentum of becoming a general, and when he saw a certain martial artist a little nervous, he would gently pat the other party's shoulder, and give support with encouraging eyes and words, his voice was gentle and firm, as if the spring breeze was blowing on his face, which made people feel warm.

When passing by Niu Gao, Jiang Hongfei said with a smile: "What a black boy, I have a fight with my brother Li Kuixian." ”

Li Kui shouted on the side: "My Tie Niu is much more handsome than this black boy. ”

Niu Gao refused to admit defeat and said: "I still think that I am much more handsome than you, a big black man." ”

The crowd laughed.

When passing by Yue Fei, Lu Junyi said to Jiang Hongfei: "Brother, this is the little brother of the younger brother Yue Fei Yue Pengju, the closed disciple of my teacher Zhou Dong, he has the true inheritance of my teacher, rare in the world, unparalleled in the world, civil and military all-rounder, must be the pillar of my Shuibo Liangshan, I hope my brother will be promoted." ”

Lu Junyi thinks that if a mortal has done something private, even if it is a matter in the bed, he can't hide it, not to mention that it is not a secret that he and Lin Chong, Yue Fei and others are senior brothers, how can no one know? Besides, he had people prepare a lot of banquets for Yue Fei and the others, how could he hide it from everyone?

For Lu Junyi to fight for him for the opportunity, Yue Fei was naturally grateful from the bottom of his heart.

But Lu Junyi's low EQ actually fought for him in front of so many martial artists, which really made Yue Fei anxious for Lu Junyi's IQ.

Fortunately, Jiang Hongfei said with a smile: "Since you are the senior apprentice of Zhou Lao Hero, the junior brother of Lin Chong and Lu Junyi, then I must be looking forward to it, but I have said it first, you have such a background, I will only be more strict with you, if you want to get this champion, you must take the first place in all subjects, otherwise I will never give you this armed yuan." ”

As soon as Jiang Hongfei said this, some martial artists couldn't help but snicker, thinking that Lu Junyi and Yue Fei couldn't steal chickens and lose rice.

But the really smart person knows that Yue Fei has won this wave, but I am afraid that the martial champion who has not yet been born may not win as much as him, after all, it is not much better to make Jiang Hongfei, the supreme leader of Shuibo Liangshan, remember that it is not much better than winning a dry martial champion?

Yue Fei is still smart, he also reacted, Jiang Hongfei remembered him, he might have good luck.

Jiang Hongfei came to the rostrum and said to Xu Guanzhong and other examiners: "This is my Shuibo Liangshan ceremony, and no one is allowed to choose privately?" Now you must make an oath to God and show your heart before you can preside over the examination. ”

Jiang Hongfei immediately called left and right: "Set up an incense case with me." ”

The incense case was placed, and Jiang Hongfei waved at Xu Guanzhong and other examiners.

Xu Guanzhong immediately worshipped heaven and earth, and then knelt down and prayed to the past gods:

"Xinguan Xu Guanzhong, a daimyo of the Mansion. Mengguo Gong's grace to test the martial arts, self-esteem and impartiality, draw talents, and contribute to my Shuibo Liangshan. If you have the slightest idea of deceiving the country and selling the law, and misleading me to seek wealth in Liangshan, you will die under the sword and arrow. ”

After the oath was completed, he asked Pei Xuan and other examiners to come and take the oath.

But after saying that all the examiners had sworn one by one, Jiang Hongfei said aloud in public:

"Shi Jingjiao presented the books of the sixteen prefectures of You, Ji, Ying, Mo, Zhuo, Tan, Shun, Confucian, Xin, Wu, Yun, Ying, Shuo, Wei and Huan in northern China to the Khitan Emperor Yelu Deguang, and since then, the sixteen states of Yanyun have been separated from the Central Plains and officially incorporated into the territory of the Khitan State and become the administrative region of the Khitan State.

It is a rich and vast land, about 600 kilometers long from east to west and about 200 kilometers wide from north to south, with an area of about 120,000 square kilometers.

There are abundant products here, both "the rao of mulberry and jujube chestnut", and "the wealth of jade silk children".

The terrain here is steep and has important military and defensive significance. The famous passes in the north, such as Shanhaiguan, Xifengkou, Gubeikou, Yanmen Pass, etc., are distributed in this area.

Yanyun Prefectures, the heavens and the earth are set to divide the limits of the Han Dynasty, and the sincerity of one husband is the pass, and the ten thousand people are not in front of it.

If we want to resist the invasion of nomadic cavalry, we must have steep terrain as a barrier, and the area around Yanshan and Taihang Mountain happens to constitute such a natural strategic security defense line.

As soon as the 16 states of Yanyun were lost, the gate of northern China was suddenly opened, and the northern border defense of Hebei was almost unsafe from then on. The iron horses of the northern nomads pose a serious threat to China's security, and they can gallop across the plains at any time, and drink the Yellow River day and night.

The sixteen states of Yanyun are really the great defense of the present and the ancient, and Shi Jingjiao ceded the sixteen states of Yanyun to cause harm to our Chinese people for more than 200 years!

Zhao Song emphasized the suppression of military force, overkill, and taught the status of soldiers to decline sharply, good iron does not hit nails, good men are not soldiers, it is Zhao Song who passed on, and in order to further lower the status of soldiers, Zhao Song will also tattoo the face of soldiers, which is a punishment that only criminals will receive, in the case of such a low status of soldiers, how can they ask soldiers to work hard for Zhao Song, Zhao Song also implemented a passive and passive national defense strategy, guarding the inside and outside.

In this way, how can Zhao Song recover the sixteen states of Yanyun and give my Chinese people a safe living space? ”

Speaking of this, Jiang Hongfei paused, and then said: "And I am one of the people who should be respected the most, who pay equal attention to civil and military affairs, divide civil and military affairs, shroud soldiers in horse leather, spill blood on the battlefield, and defend the country and protect the country!" ”

"How generous is a strong man, and his ambition is mighty. drove far away to serve, and was ordered to forget about himself. The good bow is black, and the bright armor is fine. In the face of hardship, regardless of life, the body and soul are flying. Is it a whole body? Serve the battlefield for your life. Loyalty is the glory of the world, and the righteousness is famous. Thank you to future generations, and the integrity is always there! ”

Jiang Hongfei's words, coupled with Jiang Hongfei's "Yonghuai", aroused the warmest applause.

The warriors were suppressed by the Zhao Song Dynasty for two hundred years, especially after Zhao Guangyi became emperor.

Because Zhao Guangyi was not in the right position, he was extremely weak-hearted.

Especially after the defeat in the battle of Gaoliang River, which recovered the sixteen states of Yanyun, Zhao Guangyi was wounded and fled, at that time, the Zhao and Song generals, who could not find the emperor, gathered to discuss the establishment of Zhao Dezhao, the king of Wei, that is, the second son of Zhao Kuangyin, as the new emperor, until they found that Zhao Guangyi was not dead, and did not give up.

This incident frightened Zhao Guangyi, and naturally, his suspicion and precautions against military generals became even more serious.

As a result, the entire Zhao and Song dynasties officially entered the historical road of advocating literature and suppressing martial arts.

Now, Jiang Hongfei made it clear that the status of the soldiers in Shuibo Liangshan will be as high as the literati who were promoted by the Zhao and Song dynasties, and they are one of the most respected people.

Jiang Hongfei is the supreme leader of Shuibo Liangshan, and at this time it is the scene of martial arts, so Jiang Hongfei's words must have defined the nature of the soldiers in Shuibo Liangshan.

In other words, the soldiers who have been aggrieved for almost 200 years have finally waited for the moment when they turn over!

Don't rush anything else, only rush this point, how can a group of martial artists who target soldiers, including a group of martial artists, not support Jiang Hongfei?

Jiang Hongfei continued: "Now the Liao lord Yelu Yanxi is extremely mediocre, loves hunting, reuses traitorous ministers, the northern Jurchens take advantage of the rise of the situation, establish the Jin State, have obtained several Khitan states and counties, Khitan Wujing was taken three of them, Yelu Yanxi is nowhere to be found at this time, and its luck is exhausted, this is the golden opportunity for our Han people to recapture the sixteen states of Yanyun, re-lock the iron pass, and not teach Huma to go south again!" ”

Speaking of this, Jiang Hongfei said loudly: "I don't like to talk nonsense, since you can come to participate in the first martial arts competition held by my Shuibo Liangshan, you are already a loyal supporter of my Shuibo Liangshan." Therefore, I hereby approve that all those who participate in the election will be awarded the post of lieutenant of Shouque Jinyong and served as the commander of the army; If he wins a game, he will be awarded the rank of lieutenant and serve as the chief; After winning two games, he was awarded the rank of lieutenant of Shouque Jinyi and served as the chief of the guard. And so on......"

When all the martial artists heard this, they were all overjoyed!

There is one who calculates quickly, and immediately calculates in his heart: "As long as I win against eight people, I can become a small envoy and a real military attaché!" ”

Moreover, Jiang Hongfei gave everything that was really lacking!

In other words, these martial arts students are already low-level captains in the army, and if they work hard, they can climb up step by step.

If you can become the champion, even if you can't directly become the commander, it should be about the same.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

After everyone's enthusiasm cooled down a bit, Jiang Hongfei said again: "My Liangshan Army not only needs brave people, but also people who are strategic. Therefore, if someone is familiar with military books and war strategies, or has unique views on the command of troops and operations, he can also apply for the staff officer examination. This road may be better than the competition. Let me emphasize again that Wu Jinshi, especially the top three, must be tested for the way of commanding the army, and I hope you know. ”

After saying what he wanted to say, Jiang Hongfei simply took people away.

Next, under the auspices of Xu Guanzhong and other examiners, a group of martial arts students held the first three competitions.

As a result, hundreds of people have already obtained the qualifications of the lieutenant of Shouque Jinyi and the commander of the guard, and those who have been eliminated, although they have regrets, have not come in vain.

Surprisingly, the efficiency of Shuibo Liangshan is very high.

Those Wusheng who were eliminated directly entered the political and educational office of Shuibo Liangshan, began to receive a fifteen-day political education, and then received a fifteen-day military education, and then went down to the army to serve as officers of the Liangshan Army.

Don't talk about others.

It is only said that Yue Fei and a few of them passed all the way, and all of them were within 100 and became martial arts scholars in the undergraduate.

In order to let the martial artists come out in the best state, Xu Guanzhong and other examiners gave the martial artists a day off.

Niu Gao's physical strength and endurance are excellent, there is no need to rest at all, and he is a person who can't be idle, so seeing that Yue Fei and the others are all meditating and pranayama, he went out to hang out alone.

When I looked up, there was a book field with a storyteller, and many people gathered to sit there and listen to him.

When Niu Gao saw it, he walked over excitedly and listened to the commentary.

This storyteller is telling the story of the Yang family, that is, the Eight Tigers broke into Youzhou.

Yang Zaixing, who was also listening to the book, listened enthusiastically, took out two spirit stones and handed them to the storyteller, and said: "Fellow Daoist, we are passing by, don't be strange to send it lightly." ”

The storyteller was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked: "Thank you, princesses!" ”

The two turned around and left, Niu Gao looked curious and followed.

Luo Yanqing asked: "Big brother, why do you want to give so much reward to this storyteller?" ”

Yang Zaixing said: "Brother, have you ever heard him say that my ancestors and sons are nine people, and they are invincible in a million army? Don't say two spirit stones, ten spirit stones are also worth it! ”

Luo Yanqing suddenly realized: "It turned out to be this." ”

Niu Gao thought secretly: "It turns out that so much reward was given for the sake of the ancestors." ”

After a while, Yang Zaixing and Luo Yanqing ran into a storytelling booth again.

I only heard what this storyteller said was the Xingtang Dynasty.

"Li Shimin, the king of Qin, went to the Five Dragons Society in the Shackle Mountain, there is a general in it, he is the seventh good man in the world, surnamed Luo Mingcheng, and he was ordered by the military division to take Wang Shichong, the king of Luoyang, Zhu Can, the king of Nanyang, Chuzhou, Gao Tansheng, the king of Baiyu in Xiangzhou, Dou Jiande, the king of Xia Ming in Mingzhou, and Meng Haigong, the king of Song Yi in Caozhou."

Luo Yanqing was happy to hear this, took out four spirit stones, and shouted: "Friend! We are passing by, and we have not taken much with us, so we should not be too light. ”

The storyteller said, "Thank you! ”

The three of them came out, and Niu Gao thought, "This is his ancestor again." ”

At that moment, Yang Zaixing said: "Brother, why did you just have four spirit stones with him?" ”

Luo Yanqing said: "Brother, didn't you hear him say that my ancestors were ruthless? Locking up the five dragons alone in Niukou Valley is no better than the ancestor of the eldest brother, and the nine emperors are not yet able to take care of their lives. After all, my ancestor is more ruthless than your ancestor, so I gave him two more spirit stones. ”

Yang Zaixing was furious: "Are you deceiving my ancestors? ”

Luo Yanqing shrugged his shoulders: "It's not to bully my brother's ancestor, it's actually my ancestor who is ruthless." ”

Yang Zaixing didn't talk nonsense, and said bluntly: "Okay, I'll go back to the apartment with you, put on a horse, and go to the small school to compete in martial arts." If it wins, grab the champion here; If it's ugly martial arts, go back and take the exam again! ”

Luo Yanqing didn't give an inch: "That's reasonable." ”

The two quarreled and shouted.

Niu Gaoxin said: "Fortunately, I heard it here." Otherwise, the champion was snatched by these two dog heads! ”

Niu Gao hurriedly rushed back to the apartment and went upstairs, only to see Yue Fei and them still meditating and pranayama, and thought to himself: "Don't inform them, and wait for me to grab the champion and give it to the eldest brother!" ”

Thinking of this, Niu Gao took the double hammer, went downstairs to lead the horse, and went to the small school to find Yang Zaixing and Luo Yanqing to grab the martial champion......
