Prince of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 183: A sad fight

Views:

On the road south of Gangneung Mansion, countless golden men and rebel bandit killers suddenly appeared. The target they were chasing down was the face sinking like water, and the sharp spear in their hands was like a sickle of death, harvesting the opposing golden men and soldiers at will. The life of a bandit killer, but the letter king Zhao Zhen knew that although he was strong, this time for the ashes of his physical mother Liu Taifei, he was disregarded for his own safety and almost lost his life.

I hate that the world is unpredictable. Even if I have the knowledge that transcends time and space, even if I have made emergency preparations for the upcoming pursuit and possible uprisings and chaos in Jiangnan, the development of the situation is still beyond my expectations. .

In fact, as early as before the uprising of Zhong Xiang and Yang Yao, the Dongting Lake area was already devastated due to long-term levies and looting by the golden soldiers and iron hoofs, and the economy was severely damaged. The area around Dingzhou is extremely dilapidated, and the eyes are full of hazelnuts.

And just two days ago, the Zhongshou Rebels were defeated within 20 days of the uprising. This speed is twice as short as Zhao Zhen knew. The king of the uprising army, Mingjiao leader Zhong Xiang was killed, and Mingjiao high-level Yang Yao continued to resist the Song Dynasty.

Yang Yao, the successor, established a new regime of the Great Sage Heavenly King. Yang Yao claimed to be the Great Sage Heavenly King and wrote these four characters on the banner to show his identity. Zhong Yi's youngest son, Zhong Yi, was established as the prince. Everyone from Yang Yao and below will bow to him. The Yang Yao regime also established officials, whose names, costumes, and ceremonial specifications are the same as those of the Southern Song Dynasty court. Yang Yao's residence is also called "Nei" like the Song Dynasty imperial palace, and there is also a three-ya army. In order to show nobleness, Prince Zhong also set up a dragon bed, dragon 簟 and a golden chair on the dragon boat.

Three senior Mingjiao leaders of the Yang family led the rebels to use their geographical and water conservancy advantages to also revolt against the officers and soldiers. This is because the army of Xin Wang has stabilized the north, and there are not a large number of refugees going south, but Yang Zaixing and others have turned to the army of Xin Wang in Beitou, reducing the number of rebellious troops.

There have been countless uprisings in Jiangnan, Li Hecheng, Yingxuan, Chen Yuxin, Zhong Xiang, Yang Hua, Yang Guang, Yang Yao, Chen Xin, Liu Zhong, Gao Ju, Peng You, Li Dunren, Liu Zhong, Wang Nianjing, Wang Zongshi, Fan Ruwei, Jiang Lian and so on. Don't think that this big name is all the insurgents, this is only the large-scale uprising in the 1130s, the uprisings in the previous few years are numerous. All the officers and soldiers who had Zhao Gou sent to encircle and suppress the rebels were caught off guard.

And the true appearance of the rebel army surprised Xin Wang Zhao Zhen. The whole Jiangnan is full of refugees, hungry people, and rebel troops. The mountains and plains are like ants and locusts. They don’t have decent weapons and armors, and they have no reasonable command and dispatch. They just bite and tear like wild animals, wood, stones, everything. The hard things that can be moved are their weapons.

The officers and soldiers in the city were too scared to leave the city for a long time, and would only stand on the head of the city and throw arrows to stop the rebellious bandits.

The soldiers of the rebel army who had nowhere to vent killed people and burned the houses when they saw them. It didn't take into account that the people they killed and the owners of the houses burned were oppressed people just like them.

Xin Wang Zhao Zhen did not expect Jiangnan Rebels to be like this. Although he knew that these rebels' uprisings would deteriorate like bandits and looting at the end, but within half a day, he knew. This is not a peasant uprising in the true sense at all, but more like a frenzy of riots and massacres.

Countless vagrants with yellow faces and thin skins rushed from all sides to various states and counties, looting everything they could see fiercely. They didn't see the painful grief that had been persecuted by the golden soldiers and bandits in their eyes, but now it has become a kind of crazy greed. This is a barbaric force that only knows to destroy everything.

What Zhao Zhen hates the most is that Yang Yao's subordinates colluded with the Jinren, and they worked together to intercept and kill himself. You can revolt, you can rebel against the court, seek benefits for yourself, or become a king on your own. But if you collude with the Jinren, you are trapping the nation and the country in peril and disregard, a typical traitor! Traitors!

Thinking of this, Xin Wang Zhao Zhen was furious! Can anyone stop the angry believer Zhao Zhen who has restored his true strength? The people who had tried to stop him turned into corpses.

With a sudden shout, several big men from the Golden Assassins and the bandit army stood out. The bandit army couldn't help but become excited when they saw a few people, "It's the leader of Yang Zhan!" "This little white face is dead!" "Go!"

Once again swarmed up. However, the target was changed to the horse of Xin Wang Zhao Zhen and Luo Yue'er, who was riding with Zhao Ying behind him.

At the same time, the leader waved the long iron rod in his hand, sinking and picking it, holding his fierce energy, and poking into the chest of Wang Xin Wang Zhao Zhen.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that if Xin Wang Zhao Zhen had no horses, he would be trapped in a siege and it would be difficult to get out. It's not that no one wanted to do it just now, but they couldn't get close at all. At this time, one's own master shot himself to attract the attention of the enemy, and the chance of successfully killing the horse was much greater. And taking the opportunity to kill the girl with the single hammer behind Zhao Zhen can also distract Zhao Zhen and be killed by them.

The letter king Zhao Zhen's heart sank, knowing that he was a master in the rebel army, although he did not put the opponent in his eyes, but he was bound to delay his time to stand out. If you are always trapped in a heavy siege, it is easy to be chopped off the horse or lose sight of Luo Yue'er behind.

Only a quick fight can be made, "Yue'er, sit down!" Xin Wang Zhao Zhen said to Luo Yue'er behind him. "Got it!" Luo Yueer shouted while holding a sledgehammer in both hands to block the enemy behind Zhao Zhenhu. The letter king Zhao Zhen clamped the horse belly, the red horse rushed forward quickly, and with a touch of his right hand, the large and medium dragon spear had turned into a thousand-weight spear shadow.

All the wooden sticks, kitchen knives, shovels and other "weapons" swinging at the red war horse were knocked into the air. Even the scimitars of the two golden assassins were smashed away.

The leader Yang Zhan saw that the king of letter Zhao Zhen's large and medium dragon spear was fully capable of blocking the enemies from all sides, and his empty door was exposed, his heart was ecstatic, and he shot out with all strength.

But the shadow of the gun flashed. The situation in front of Yang Zhan suddenly changed, and the spear suddenly changed from the hands of King Xin Wang, Zhao Zhen, and a shot came and struck Yang Zhan's throat.

Yang Zhan's soul flew away, and it was too late to figure out how Xin Wang Zhaozhen used this move. The long iron rod was desperately blocked, hoping to stop the castration of the sharp spear a little, and at the same time withdrew and retreated. Amid the miserable grunts of the bandits and golden assassins around, they staggered back, either being pierced by a sharp spear blade, or being hit by a wooden stick, kitchen knife, shovel or scimitar that flew back upside down.

"Puff!" Then Yang Zhanfei retreated sharply and fell on his back. A little blood red on the eyebrows quickly expanded, blood pouring out like spring water, and his eyes widened, but there was no more vitality. The hand holding the iron rod was loosened, and the iron rod rolled aside, making a weak collision with the ground.

How to kill people? No one could see clearly. The eyes of the other bandit generals on the opposite side were all red. The gold man gave silver one hundred thousand taels to kill this person, but whoever could think that Yang Zhan would be killed even if he couldn't get through a single face. Several bandit leaders rushed up with a roar and brandishing weapons.

The bandit generals on the left and right, shot and shot, screamed and screamed, and greeted Xin Wang Zhao Zhen's Dazhong Shenlong spear with all his strength. The golden assassin behind him also struck desperately, killing the sky for a time.

Xin Wang Zhao Zhen's spear danced like lightning, and the surrounding bandits were stabbed to death or swept away. "Head down!" Hearing Zhao Zhen's shout, Luo Yueer immediately bowed his head to cat waist, Zhao Zhen turned around and assassinated the four golden assassins holding scimitars behind them. Afterwards, Zhao Zhen clamped the horse's belly again, like a white horse connected to him, and slew the two in front of him.

The big man on the left had a grim face and yelled. Youruo raised a thunder on the ground, leaped off the ground, hit his head with a stick, and hit the Wang Xin Wang Zhao Zhen, fierce and fierce.

The big man on the right was stunned, his hair was stiff, he immediately picked up his gun, and pierced the gun at the right waist of Xinwang Zhao Zhen. Xin Wang Zhao Zhen showed a smile at the corner of his mouth, and the hand holding the gun moved to the middle. The tip and the tail of the gun were like two IPs, and the points were on the tip of the gun.

Cang! Tuk! A clear sound of a metal impact and a muffled low sound burst at the same time.

The two of them shook their bodies like if they were struck by lightning. The two earth-shaking moves of the two were completely broken by the dragon spear of Wang Zhaozhen.

The sharp guns skyrocketed, thousands of blue-purple gun shadows, like countless unpredictable and vacillating blue dragons, attacked the two in all pervasive ways. The two big men took off their spear sticks at the same time and flew away, and with every turn, blood came from their bodies like raindrops.

The surrounding bandits were all aghast, and they turned pale! None of the generals who are invincible in their hearts can stop the young man on the opposite side from one move!

Seeing that his generals were beheaded one after another, the leader of the army, Shi Dazhu, was anxious this time.

In the Jin Dynasty, Liu Yu made the famous "Emperor of Qi", and Zhang Xiaochun, the former prefect of Taiyuan in Song Dynasty, was the prime minister. The messenger who came to ask for the killing of Zhao Zhen this time was a person from Qi Qi. Of course, the main commander is Jin Guo's general Wanyan Loubao.

The people of the Puppet Qi agreed to kill this young man. The reward was one hundred thousand taels of silver. How could Yang Yao, the great sage king, be unhappy. He immediately sent his general Shi Dazhu to lead Yang Zhan and other three generals to lead five hundred teams with gold. The human assassin came to intercept and kill Xinwang Zhao Zhen.

Shi Dazhu saw that three of his subordinates died in battle, but it was a pity that Bai Yin hadn't got his hands yet. Fight for one hundred thousand taels of silver! He shouted, holding a double iron halberd and attacked Xin Wang Zhao Zhen.

There is a price to be paid for hitting a rock with a pebble. The letter king Zhao Zhen stabbed and killed several golden assassins and dozens of bandits around him. Then, he attacked the big stone pillar that was armed with a double iron halberd.

"Ding Ding Cang" Dazhong Shenlong spear and Shi Dazhu's double iron halberds were handed over. The letter king Zhao Zhen gushed out infinite murderous intent, and the two passed by on their horses.

The letter king Zhao Zhen didn't even look at it, and took a shot at lightning. Shi Dazhu's face was pale, blood spurted from his chest, and he fell to the ground and died.

Xin Wang Zhao Zhen turned back and rushed into the army of golden assassins and bandits. The big and medium dragon spear flicked and slammed, imagining thousands of stars, and every point was a call to death.

The dragon spear of the big and medium dragon swept the fallen leaves in a violent wind, and every bandit soldier and golden killer who grabbed the horse with Xin Wang Zhao Zhen was provoked and stabbed to death, none of them survived. At this time, the bandit soldiers retreated one after another, and only a dozen golden killers still rushed up. But being stabbed to death by Zhao Zhen one by one, even the leader of the golden killer, who was not the one of Zhao Zhen, was instantly stabbed in the throat by Zhao Zhen.

Seeing that the front was empty, the Yellow Turban soldiers yelled and turned and hugged their heads and fled, not even the corpse capital of the four brothers of the Wang family.

The war is over. The letter king, Zhao Zhen, left! The long and sturdy legs of the red horse kicked the mud and dust of the official road, and took a roll of dust and galloped towards the Zhijiang River ahead.

The king of the letter, Zhao Zhen, was sitting on horseback straight, with no emotions of joy, anger, sorrow, and joy on his face. And Luo Yueer leaned on Zhao Zhen's back and was lethargic.

After walking for most of the day, there was no pedestrian on the road, only the corpses of the assassins and mobs who kept falling and dying in an attempt to stop themselves. Since coming to this era, Xin Wang Zhao Zhen's heart has never tried to be extremely angry and so clear at this moment. These people are all the people of Song Dynasty!

Zhao Zhen could not imagine that, for his own reasons, without the participation of tens of millions of refugees from the north, he originally thought that the people in the south would have rebelled and rebelled in desperation.

As a result, Zhao Zhen found that due to Zhao Gou and a gang of corrupt officials, as well as the looting and killing of the gold men and bandits, the Jiangnan and Jinghu areas did not show any good conditions. The situation is still very bad.

Zhao Zhen rode the horse, and the trees on both sides were whirling, and bright red blood was flowing on Zhao Zhen's large and medium dragon spear. Zhao Zhen is sadly in the midst of blind and pathetic killing, because even if it is not the people who chase Thaksin Wang Zhao Zhen, the mob of the uprising will still rush to kill Zhao Zhen.

Zhao Zhen's sympathy for the peasant uprising and his slight favor for the people's uprising have been shattered by the reality before him.

I can't remember how many people have been killed, but the grief and anger have increased unabated. The anger of King Xin Wang Zhao Zhen is not only about the danger he may face, but more of a kind of sorrow. He looked at helpless civilians and thinking of the pitiful and hateful rebels. Wang Xin Zhao Zhen kept asking himself: Was it too slow to expel Jinbing

However, Xin Wang Zhao Zhen knew that even if he came back for a while, he might not be able to defeat the Golden Soldier faster and prevent it from invading the South. Because, if it were not for the Zhao Gou court and the army in the south to contain a group of golden soldiers, when there was no food in the area, he would not be able to cope with the main attack of the golden soldiers. At that time, it is likely that both sides will suffer. What will be damaged will be the lives and property of the people in the northern jurisdiction.

On the riverside of Jinghu area, it should be such a scene in autumn. The green meadows continue to the end of the river beach. The forest is full of lush trees. In the blue river, you can vaguely see many fishermen driving fishing boats to fish.

The water is clear, and the river flows through the pebbles on both sides of the river, but for the natives, this is the "land of fish and rice". The river is filled with endless wealth, and the ground contains the factor of rice harvest.

However, what embarrassed Wang Zhaozhen was that he, Luo Yueer and his horses were exhausted, and Zhijiang City was in front of him. He had to go to the city to buy another horse and take a rest. You can't expect to sleep in the wild against the mobs and bandits everywhere. That would be too dangerous.

Although Zhao Zhen, who was a special soldier, could remain vigilant while sleeping, there was still Luo Yueer, and Zhao Zhen could not let this girl who followed him suffer. When entering Zhijiang City, you can't bring weapons, and you must keep your valuables in order to avoid being touched by those greedy city gate guards.

Riding the horse forward, Zhao Zhen looked up at the sky. It was still early. In order to save horsepower, both of them got off the horse. Two people headed towards Zhijiang City on a horse, and there began to be dotted buildings along the way.

Mainly farms immersed in the sun and solitary houses of farm laborers in the wilderness. Farmland is distributed on both sides of the river, but in the autumn harvest season, the field is a continuous piece of weeds. In broad daylight, there was silence all around.

After they walked in the rice fields for about an hour, the towering walls of Zhijiang City suddenly appeared in the line of sight in front of them. At the gate of the city, there were sparse people coming and going, and the soldiers guarding the city closely checked the pedestrians entering and leaving the gate. The letter king Zhao Zhen asked Luo Yue'er to slow down and look for a place to bury the weapon.

The letter king Zhao Zhen dug a pit under a willow tree and buried his Guanghua double swords, large and medium dragon spear, crossbow arrows, and Luo Yueer's sledgehammer. Then they sprinkled some leaves and soil, and then the two of them led the horses. Slowly walked towards the city gate.

The gate guards are talking to each other, there are about a dozen of them. Since it is an extraordinary period, people are surrounded by chaos, so there are not many pedestrians. So although they search strictly, they are still very idle.

As soon as the two of them appeared, the conversation stopped. "Who are you?" the vigilant city gate guards asked Zhao Zhen and Luo Yue'er, the kings of the city.

"We are the people of Jiangling. We went to Shizhou to join our relatives. Lord, we saw a lot of bandits on the way. My wife and I were terrified and wanted to go to the city to avoid it!" Xin Wang Zhao Zhen raised his hand and rushed to the top. Shouted.

Luo Yueer was ashamed and angry at hearing from behind, what madam, when she heard Xinwang Zhao Zhen said that she was his wife, she finally couldn't help but quietly stabbed Xinwang Zhao Zhen on the back with her finger, this damn fellow must It was deliberate.

Although Luo Yueer doesn't care about Zhao Zhen asking him to be his wife, she probably thinks it's good to believe in Wang Zhao Zhen's wife. Anyway, believe in Wang Zhao Zhen to protect her, right? But you can't say it so blatantly! She is still a big girl!

The letter king Zhao Zhen has a hard time saying, he can only let the guard relax his vigilance by saying this. He and Luo Yue'er look different, and they can't be said to be brothers and sisters, and the others are not fools.

"Do you have any weapons?" the soldiers gathered around and asked. The letter king Zhao Zhen replied calmly: "No, we don't have weapons. We rode horses very quickly, and ran away when we saw the mob."

"Grab them all, these people are spies!" But at this moment, Zhao Zhen and Luo Yue'er suddenly heard a person order from the corner. "Wait a minute, we are not spies!" Luo Yueer couldn't help but distinguish: "We are from Jiangling, we have official documents!" What can Zhao Zhen want? The customs clearance documents have long been prepared in Yuezhou, which is now Shaoxing.
