Chapter 55

After escaping the catastrophe, everyone was excited to hear the words "open up the territory and compete with Yijun", and Guan Kui said: "Boss, how can these twenty-one cities be enough, at least half of the Ming Dynasty will be taken." Shen Zhongyue echoed: "Yes." They are all sons of the Long Live Lord, and they should be half of the country. If Emperor Shenzong is a child, I will even take his capital, and let our young master be the home of the Ming Dynasty and be the Emperor of Shenwu. Lei Tianba laughed loudly: "This is natural. That's not to boast that my Longqing soldiers are powerful, since the flag was raised, our Longqing soldiers have never suffered defeat, and wherever they fight, they will attack everything. Zhong Lei saw that the morale of the generals was high, and he couldn't finish talking, so he laughed and said: "Now I have to hold a wedding banquet for Zhongzhu and Nasha, Tianba and Zhongyue." Listen, all masters, servants, and soldiers, let them drink heartily today, and not be drunk. Guan Ziqing, Shi Xiongmin, Guan Kui, Wang Qiliang, Feng Guang, the five of you soldiers have been beaten almost to the ground, and when you wake up drunk, I will allow you to take your troops ashore to recruit soldiers and horses. Other generals fought the pirates with the sailors of Zizong. After speaking, hundreds of big boats set sail, Tianbo people slaughtered chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep, sailors went out to cast nets to fish, Yingchun and boats took more than 100 cooks to open the stove and spoon, and the three sisters also came to join in the fun. Everyone moved out of the wine altar one after another, and just held a wedding banquet on the ship, laughing and laughing, very lively.

The marriage on this ship lasted for three days in a row, and when I woke up, I drank again, and such a huge fleet, let alone pirates, even the Ming sailors did not dare to commit it lightly. Everyone else was immersed in the joy of the carnival, only Guan Kui was thinking about things with her hands on the guardrail of the big ship platform, and behind her were her eight personal soldiers with guns and swords. She thought that her brother's own soldiers were now less than fifty. Shi Xiongmin is only seventy or eighty left, and Feng Guang's brother is more than sixty. Wang Qiliang has more than 100 soldiers, and his Mulan army is quite more. There are three hundred and twenty. But these five generals combined the old department in one place, and there were less than 600 people, how could they go deep into the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty without being wiped out. "Alas, there are so many soldiers and horses in hand, where can I go ashore to avoid encounters with the Ming army, and where should I go to strengthen my strength?" Fortunately, the pipe is clear. Shi Xiongmin, Wang Qiliang, and Feng Guangwu knew that Dusk would bid farewell to the chief manager and leave the ship with the generals, so they only ate food and did not drink. Sure enough, Guan Kui said, "Four, we will have 600 people, if we want to expand to 6,000 people." You have to keep this bit of strength first. Feng Guang knew that this female Zhuge already had an idea, so he said, "Eldest sister, what to do, you just tell me." Guan Kui nodded and said, "Ziqing." You go and bring Qin Yin, the big soybean at Yang Biao, and all the flags and flags. Xiongmin. Take your brother to the warship and dismantle four foreign cannons, with two or three hundred shells. Kira. You go and choose 600 war horses and get 5,000 sets of Ming military uniforms. Brother Feng Xian. Go and fetch fifty tents, and six hundred men eat and drink for three days. After that, everyone waited for me on the boat and left the camp at dusk. I'm going to Yingchun to get the silver, and by the way, I say goodbye to everyone. ”

At dusk, there was a heavy fog on the sea, and the line of sight was less than 100 feet, and twenty or thirty large ships slowly rocked out of the Tianbo Fu Water Camp in a line, and then pulled their sails and sailed in the direction of the coast. After walking for a while, night fell, and the ship did not light the lights, for fear of being discovered by the coastal defenders of the Ming Dynasty. After a long journey, the ship finally came ashore at a place called Wangfu Bay. Everyone was busy with horses and things for a long time, the big boat left, everyone got on the horse to protect the vehicle, Guan Kui raised his hand and shouted: "Go, go to Siniangzi Mountain, eat the bandits there and then take the county seat." ”

These four Niangzi Mountain is seventy or eighty miles away from Wangfu Bay, and there are four bandits of all sizes living on the mountain, the big one is more than 2,000 people, and the small one is also four or five hundred. These four bandits often gather together in one place, relying on the strength of the crowd, going out of the mountains to harass the surrounding villages and towns, and sometimes attacking Lixian City, robbing some treasures and women back to the village, and the officers and soldiers can't help them, and they live very freely. But there was a strange thing today, the officers and soldiers who never dared to enter the mountain appeared at the gate of the mountain just after dawn, and the big drums roared in the banners of this mountain, and there were seven curtains of the flags alone, and even the Western artillery was erected, and the seven teams of light cavalry could not see the tail of the head, so the formation really shocked these bandits. "The officers and soldiers in front of the mountain, there is something to discuss, and both sides are defeated. "The person who spoke was called Zhenshan Hu, the big leader of the four bandits, holding a mountain axe, and his eight-foot figure was very strong. Hearing his words, Guan Kui rode forward for more than ten years, held a gun and clenched his fists, and said: "Zhenshan Tiger, I know your origin, you were originally a butcher in Qinghe Town, because the lady let Wang Tianba rape and kill, so she killed the seventeen members of the Wang family in a fit of rage, and fell down the mountain and became a bandit." I tell you clearly, we are not local officers and soldiers, nor are we here to kill you, but to send you a future for Jinxiu. Zhenshan Tiger is also a good man all the way, famous far and wide, but he fell into the grass here to be the leader of the bandits, and he really ruined the mountain axe in your hand. I don't talk nonsense in front of the Ming people, we are Zhu Tianxiao's soldiers and horses, Zhu Tianxiao is the younger brother of the current Emperor Shenzong, and he has occupied dozens of cities in the southwest. Our young master knows that you are a good man, and sent seven of us to invite you to join the gang as a general, and also to find a good way out for your brother. Okay, I've said everything that needs to be said, whether you are good or bad is up to you. "I didn't think that this Zhenshan Tiger not only knew that the little prince Zhu Tianxiao, but also knew that there was a Mulan Army in Tianbo Mansion, and after hearing these words at this time, he nodded and said: "Since it is the soldiers and horses of Chen Hong's sister's master, then there is nothing to say, my Zhenshan Tiger took his brother into the gang and followed Zhu Tianxiao to do it." ”

This is good, the five thousand sets of Ming military uniforms brought are not enough, and there are still more than three hundred sets left. These more than 5,300 people returned to Guan Ziqing, Shi Xiongmin, Wang Qiliang, and Feng Guang. Zhenshanhu returned to Guan Ziqing, and the other leaders belonged to Shi Xiongmin. Guan Kui selected more than 400 young and strong women from among the bandits and collected more than 200 maid rings. After four days of reorganization on the mountain, a team of nearly 7,000 people escorted more than 10,000 families out of the mountain and surrounded Lixian City.

This Lixian county is in the mountains, with a population of about 10,000 households, and 12,300 defenders. Guan Kui first collected the surrendered army, and then collected the official food and official silver, and began to recruit troops inside and outside the city, purchase horses, grain and grass, build equipment, and train soldiers and horses. Send out several rangers out of the mountain to explore Jinhua. Taizhou, Wenzhou. Guangxin Sifu military intelligence.

After resting for three months, Guan Kui was promoted in the county hall and sat with Guan Ziqing, Shi Xiongmin, Wang Qiliang, Feng Guang, Zhenshanhu, Huali, and Li Xiongfei. Hu Long, Yang Zhiying, Yao Wei Gong Ten Generals. "Brothers, we now have nearly 20,000 soldiers and horses, and what is lacking is grain, grass and horses, not siege the city. Yesterday, the horse survey reported that twenty-four miles south of Jinhua City, enclosed land to raise horses, and also built eight large granaries. There were three thousand defenders. Hearing that there was a battle, all the generals were happy, and Zhenshanhu said: "Lord, our brothers have joined the gang." I haven't built an inch, and I'm afraid that I won't have the face to see the young master by then. This time, you will give our brother the opportunity to make meritorious contributions. How is it?" Guan Kui nodded and smiled, and asked, "Then your brother wants to rob horses and grain." Or ambush the soldiers and horses that came out of Jinhua City?" Zhenshan Hu was asked, and was dumbfounded for a while. Asked Shi Xiongmin softly. "General Shi, which merit do you think is great?" Shi Xiongmin said with a smile: "Naturally, it is a great merit of grabbing horses and grain, and there are still 3,000 defenders there." When he heard this, he said to Guan Lu: "Lord, you are the best at robbing us." Our brothers went to rob horses and grain, and got some merit to see the young master. Guan Kui nodded and said, "Okay, then this head will be given to your brothers." However, not a grain of grain, not a horse, not a single defender is allowed. Zhenshan Tiger said happily: "Lord, thank you." To be honest, I'm afraid that I won't be able to grab enough, so how can I be willing to leave what I have to others. After Guan Kui shouted "yes", he said, "I have sent my brother to contact the sailor and send a boat to meet us back to the water camp in Wangfu Bay." Zhenshan Tiger and Yang Zhiying, Yao Weigong, Hua Li, Li Xiongfei, and Hu Long led 5,000 troops to grab horses and grain. Guan Ziqing led 4,000 troops to block the soldiers and horses coming out of Jinhua City, Shi Xiongmin, Wang Qiliang, Feng Guang, you each brought 4,000 soldiers and horses to be ready to stop and kill the Ming army from Taizhou, Wenzhou, and Guangxin. ”

After the dispatch of troops, Zhenshan Hu, Yang Zhiying, Yao Weigong, Hua Li, Li Xiongfei, and Hu Long led 5,000 troops out of Lixian County first, and after two days of driving, they finally found a horse farm not far away. Zhenshan Hu reined in the horse, pointed to the horse farm with a mountain axe in one arm, turned around and said: "Brothers, you are all my old department in Siniangzi Mountain, you have to fight for Lao Tzu today, don't lose your face." With that, he pointed forward with his axe, and everyone went out with knives and shouted. How did the three thousand Ming defenders think that they would make a sneak attack, seeing that a large group of officers and soldiers were coming, they just wanted to flee back to the camp to get the equipment, half of them had been cut down on the ground, and the rest saw that the situation was not good, and they were busy lying on the ground in panic and asking to surrender, so as not to lose their lives in vain.

The 34th Sanjiang Restaurant was in danger and went to Beijing

Looking back, I said that Tianxiao left Yangzhou Mansion Qianjiazhuang that day, and went to Luzhou Mansion with the crazy old man to see the old monster Jin Wuming, and learned a few tricks from him, and took a seven-color ceremonial flower distress signal flare of the Tianying Sect, and then left the Luzhou Mansion without worrying old monsters, and then went to Zhenjiang Mansion to see the carefree mother-in-law Meng Xiling, and also learned a few tricks from her, and also took a seven-color ceremonial flower distress signal flare of Tianlongmen.

"Xiao'er, the old monster of Kunlun is sick, I want to go up to Kunlun Mountain to see him, you can go back to Pukou City, lest that ogre worry about you all day long. ”

At this time, Tianxiao was already ten years old, and he was becoming more and more intelligent, not to mention the kung fu in his hands, but he lacked experience and skills. He knew that this crazy old man was a carefree person, and it was inconvenient to force him to stay, so he went to the restaurant and invited him to drink an urn of eighty-year-old superb incense. During the banquet, he gave all the silver tickets on Dexi's body to the crazy old man, and said, "Old man, you are the first person to teach Xiao'er kung fu, and Xiao'er is very grateful to you." Say goodbye today, I don't know when Xiao'er will see you again. You are out on your own, take care of yourself. Don't take the affairs of the Heavenly Demon Society to heart, when Xiao'er grows up, she will avenge you. The crazy old man smiled, touched his head and said, "Xiao'er, among all my apprentices, you are the person who has the deepest relationship with me, the person with the highest understanding, and the person with the widest range of romances. It's enough for me to have you as an apprentice, and I won't accept any more apprentices from now on, and you will be my closed disciple. ”

In the midst of laughter, this wine is also refreshing. After drinking, don't go crazy and old-fashioned, Tianxiao let auspicious, Ruyi got on the sedan chair, and Dexi drove the car, saying that he followed the sedan chair, which can be regarded as practicing light skills, and then got on the sedan chair when he was tired of running, and went straight to Pukou City. Dexi was afraid that he was tired of the young master, and deliberately slowed down the sedan chair, and Tianxiao saw it and said: "You slave, you have to be lazy to catch the car, when will you get to Pukou at such a speed." Hurry up, or I'll catch up and let you follow the coupe, and I'll tire you to death. Dexi had no choice but to whip the horse, and then see that although the young master had fallen behind the car, he could still keep up.

Tianxiao didn't know that his father had died, his mother and sister-in-law had confined Concubine Li in the cold palace, and Zhong Bo had already fled to the sea with a wolf, and Tianbo Mansion couldn't go back, but he still urged Dexi to catch the car, just wanting to return to Pukou City as soon as possible. He thought about his father and mother, and he had seen Dan Ying several times in his dreams, thinking that after returning to Tianbo Mansion, he would take the Peony sisters and Jasper, and let Zhong Bo, Zhao Hu, and Wang Bao escort him to the capital.

Thinking of the worry-free old monster and the carefree mother-in-law have said that if you want to know more about the rivers and lakes, Piaoxiang Restaurant and Sanjiang Restaurant are the best places to go, and the diners there are all people from the rivers and lakes who go south and north, and there are strange things and interesting anecdotes to hear every day. After passing through Ying Tianfu, Tianxiao naturally wanted to go to Sanjiang Restaurant to eat, and when he entered the store, he saw that it was really different from other restaurants, this sword was either on his body, or leaned on the edge of the table, and there were many other instruments. He looked around and saw that there was an empty table by the window, and he was about to go over, but he was stopped by a guy who stretched out his hand and said, "Little boy, since the opening of this restaurant, only those who have joined the martial arts have been in the club." If you want to eat, please go to the Xianghe Restaurant opposite. He looked up at the guy, and saw that it was a burly middle-aged man with a towel on his shoulder, so he smiled and asked, "According to what you say, you should also be able to do kung fu." When the diners in the restaurant heard this, they all thought it was interesting and looked at him, and one of them muttered: "This little boy is really good at kung fu." Tianxiao smiled when he heard this, and was about to speak, only to hear the guy laugh and say: "Little boy, all the people in this restaurant, whether they are shopkeepers or guys, spoons or dishes, have worked hard for more than ten or twenty years." He nodded "oh" and said, "Now I understand." In other words, if I defeat you in three moves, I will be able to eat here, right?" As soon as these words came out, all the people in the hall were dumbfounded, and the shopkeeper immediately responded: "This is natural. In case your little boy is broken, what do you say?" Tian Xiao intended to show his face in front of the martial arts people in the world, so he took the shopkeeper and said: "If you have the means, go up with this guy to see if you two break my hands and feet, or if I take your lives." After that, he took out the Xuanleng sword from his arms, pulled out the sword, threw the scabbard to Dexi, and said to the two Ruyi behind him: "Retreat to the door." ”

As soon as Tianxiao said this, whether it was kung fu or not, in short, he was calling the Sanjiang Restaurant, and all the diners in the hall stood up, seeing that this little boy was talking nonsense, and it was really a strange disciple. And the diners upstairs heard that someone called the shopkeeper Crane Fist Sun, and the guy caught the beast, and they all poured down, and they all wanted to see what kind of characters were not interesting, and dared to come to lift the bricks and tiles of Sanjiang Restaurant. "Which one? Which one is it?" Many people only saw the crane fist sun and the beast, but they didn't see the opponent, and they asked, and someone in the hall said: "Thief woman, that person is a little boy, blocked by the beast, you just can't see it." The thief asked, "Divine Doctor Xue Fei, is this little boy more than ten years old?" The thief asked again: "Divine doctor, is this little boy wearing a purple embroidered python yellow robe, stepping on gold thread white soap boots, and wearing a red and delicate jade belt around his waist?" Could it be that you know this little boy?" The thief woman first shouted: "Crane Fist Sun, you two are not the opponents of this little boy." Then he squeezed down the stairs to Tian Xiao, and said to the beast first: "This son can kill you in three moves." Then Chao Tianxiao clasped his fists and said: "Little prince, I am the sixth daughter-in-law of Xiaoyao Mother-in-law, because I love to touch other people's silver tickets, the people in the rivers and lakes call the thief mother-in-law." You're here, what about the crazy old Taoist?" Hearing that it was the daughter-in-law of the carefree mother-in-law, Tian Xiao hurriedly pinched the sword and hugged his fists and said: "Senior, the old man went to Kunlun and said that the old man in Kunlun was sick.
