In the first ten days of July in the tenth year of Jinghan, Yunzhou, Shandong. !
Since the officers and soldiers smashed Liangshan Island in mid-to-late June, Song Jiang and other Liangshan elites have fled in the Yunzhou area for half a month. Probably after waking up from the madness and raging in the first ten days, probably starting from the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, the entire Liangshan army changed, bringing the situation into a relatively strange state of silence. In a sense, At least during this period of time, the Liangshan troops controlled by Wu Yong, Zhu Wu and others made several excellent tactical applications.
From the first battle at Dulonggang, Liangshan was beaten down by Ning Yi from his peak state, and then the downsizing began to flee. In fact, what Liangshan faced was not all a bleak scene of being pushed down by everyone. At this time, the green forest is about morality. When Liangshan really fell into a slump, there are not no people who are willing to reach out to help in the snow at this time.
Shandong near Shuibo, at least in the east and west of Shandong, is one of the weakest places in the government. In this place, there are many people on the top of the mountain, and there are five or six people who dare to occupy the top of the mountain with seven or eight knives. When Liangshan was burning and killing all the way and trying to accumulate grievances in the direction of the government, many such small hills began to hate Liangshan, but more, they chose silence, concessions and mutual help.
In the more than ten days that Song Jiang and others fled, other leaders of the soldiers who were driven and scattered due to the Battle of Liangshan have also been scattered in the entire Yunzhou and Jeju areas. Among these people, some still want to join Song Jiang and other leaders in the past, and some even made some friends. They want to be enthusiastic in the time when Liangshan was in trouble. At least in the ten days when Song Jiang fled, there were several The Green Forest High Rollers who were called caught up or ran into their team and wanted to join in or help.
For these people, Song Jiang didn't want to use it, but he didn't dare to use it. Because Ning Yi's tricks are too many, they have been repeatedly crushed, and now they have finally cleared the army again. Who knows if these new recruits will be arranged by Ning Yi
Due to these considerations, he had no choice but to decline with great gratitude and leave the words: "If I wait for the great difficulty to escape, you are welcome to come and gather together, but in this case, it is not easy to implicate you brothers. It's just that such a great kindness and great virtue will definitely be remembered in my heart." Yunyun, he said sincerely, and everyone said that if there is any difficulty, just speak up.
In fact, Song Jiang would have been rude if he could solve the problem by speaking.
However, after the sixth day of the seventh lunar month, these scattered fugitives scattered in the surrounding prefectures and counties were still skillfully used by Wu Yong, Zhu Wu and others. This place was originally a vast area with few people and many barren hills. Song Jiang and others burned and killed all the way. The army and the more than 2,000 people in Dulonggang were bitten closer. When they gave up the burning and killing, they tried their best to hide their tracks and even split into two or three groups to flee. At that time, Ning Yi and others would have to spend more time to accurately grasp the other party's trail.
At the same time, a lot of false information was released by Liangshan. They sent personnel to contact the defeated soldiers and the leaders who fled from various places, and issued various orders, hoping that they would stir up chaos, or release the news of where they were going to fight and let people cooperate. These orders may not be executed by many people. However, even if some people are willing to cooperate, when various information is fed back, the traces of Song Jiang and others become blurred in the mountains around Yunzhou.
In this situation for several days, no matter who it is, everyone understands that Song Jiang and others will make big moves. Fang Duxing did not dare to neglect, and ordered the remaining troops of Wu Rui Battalion to reinforce Yunzhou, but even so, there were still a lot of areas in the nearby waterbore and mountains for Song Jiang and others to move. It is only the information from half a day to a day ago of this escape team. Even if this time is occasionally shortened, it does not make much sense.
As for tactical matters, it is difficult for Ning Yi to be of much help under the existing conditions. Although there were still a few spies available in Song Jiang's team, Song Jiang strengthened the monitoring of the leaders and soldiers, and secondly, during such a run, there may not be any connections between the two sides, and there is no chance of manipulating the spies.
More than 10,000 people are chasing more than 3,000 people in such a place with relatively home field advantage. It will be a matter of time to really catch them. After this side gets tough, the psychological level of the other soldiers will inevitably collapse. But everything takes time. Before that, it can only be handed over to Fang Duxing, He Rui, and Luan Tingyu. While waiting with bated breath, getting the news about Lu Hongti on the tenth day of the first lunar month was really a boost to Ning Yi's boring waiting. Wang Shanyue, Qi Xinhan, Zhu Biao and others also expressed their opinions. Amazed.
"Liheng's master? It's so powerful?"
"How is it possible that such a master is..."
"Uh, Big Brother Ning's master is so powerful, how did he... how did he develop martial arts like this..."
When the news of this "mentor" who came out for himself came, in addition to being envious and surprised, the first thing that was reflected was obvious contempt, which really made Ning Yi feel helpless.
In the past few days, he has taught Wang Shanyue some sinister methods. Wang Shanyue already admires him, and thinks that smart people are indeed smart people. On the side of Qi Xinhan and Zhu Biao, they also think this guy is sinister and vicious. , various means should not be underestimated. But after learning that he had such a powerful master, the corners of his mouth twitched. Ning Yi could probably understand what they were thinking: If my master was so powerful, why would I always use sly tricks to fight people!
For a while, they regarded Ning Yi as a model who refused to work hard to practice martial arts, and they felt that smart people have advantages and disadvantages. Ning Yi is not easy to explain, but thinking of Lu Hongti, his heart is warm, and he actually sighs a little.
"Uh... When I played against her before, she didn't seem to be so powerful..."
This sentence was muttered to himself in front of Zhu Biao and others, and everyone despised him, so he could only laugh. In fact, in front of Lu Hongti, her martial arts skills are higher and lower, which probably doesn't matter to her. No wonder she always says that she is second-rate and third-rate. It's really hard for me to be accommodating to myself when I mess around with moves and yin people.
Of course, if she is really a martial arts idiot and puts all her energy on martial arts, Miss Lu will definitely urge herself to become a first-class master. But in her eyes, after all, she felt that helping the world and saving the people came first, and no matter how well you practiced martial arts, a hundred enemies are not as good as ten thousand enemies.
Thinking about it again, being able to combine martial arts to this level at such an age, the hardships and hardships she faced on Luliang Mountain are probably still beyond her imagination. Every time I think of this, I can't help but sigh.
The contempt of Zhu Biao and others towards him is of course a joke after getting acquainted. A little more knowledgeable, most people can know that he did not lay the foundation when he was a child. The more than 2,000 people in Longgang were still running around with Song Jiang, unable to take care of the concubine in the green forest. Ning Yi had to ask Luan Tingyu if there would be any danger there, and then he talked about the iron arm Zhou Dong. Luan Tingyu is highly skilled in martial arts and is also a junior brother of Zhou Tong, but when it comes to the number one person in the world, he also shakes his head, expressing that he doesn't know much.
"I was still young when I was studying art, and I was a lot worse than him. But when it comes to senior and senior brothers, it sounds like there is a connection, but in fact, it can't be true. When my generation of martial arts went around the world, I met a powerful person who taught me the art. Who doesn't want to learn both hands. Before I was 30 years old, I studied with seven masters, and my martial arts were high and low. In the end, but after it actually came out, I still have to travel around and learn from it. As far as I know, Senior Brother Zhou really became an artist in Shaolin, and he has mastered the true biography of Master Tan Zhengfang. After I came to Shandong, I have no further contact with him. , but he became a trainer at the Imperial Boxing Gym, and he is quite familiar with Junior Brother Sun Lisun, who is also an official."
Luan Tingyu's martial arts skills are strong, but his temperament is aggressive and modest. When talking about martial arts skills, he smiles: "If the realm is here, it's a little worse, and the fight will be much worse. If that girl Lu really has Senior Brother Zhou's kung fu and doesn't like to fight. If you want, come and go as you want, who can keep her."
After saying this, he added: "It's just that the manpower is poor, no matter how strong the kung fu, people will be tired, or bad luck, these things are hard to say. I can only say... It should be fine. "
Lu Hongti survived on Mount Luliang, of course, not just by luck, especially in the melee of the Liao people fighting the grassy valley, the vigilance of those who survived must be much higher than that of ordinary people. Ning Yi was a little relieved, as long as he finished dealing with Song Jiang and the others, he could immediately go over to meet her.
At this time, I remembered that Lu Zhishen had died, and then I thought of Lin Chong, and hurriedly asked Luan Tingyu who else in the world was as powerful as Zhou Tong, or if Zhou Tong would take revenge on his disciples. Luan Tingyu looked strange.
"Martial arts are always known after fighting, and the master is only called out. How can I know who is more powerful... But I want to avenge my disciples. Zhou Tong taught boxing in the Imperial Boxing Academy, and there are no disciples who apprentice to him every year. There are 100 in the eighty. Even if it is a closed disciple who is officially accepted, I heard that there are several small princes and princes in the capital. , Jiangnan, where are there no disciples of his. Shi Wengong, Lu Junyi, Lin Chong, etc., are mostly taught by him, at most just a thought..."
Luan Tingyu sighed: "What's more, he studied martial arts all his life, and he wanted to fight and kill the enemy, but those who practiced martial arts were despised. He made a great name in the capital and was the best in the world, but the court never used him heavily. I heard that he left. At that time, I was already disheartened, how could I come to the government for some sloppy disciples, and I really encountered it, if I didn’t take action to clean up the door myself, even if it was an open door…”
The two discussed these matters for a while, and then discussed the intentions of Song Jiang and others before they separated. Zhu Biao came over and curiously asked about his master's age, whether he was beautiful, etc. Ning Yi scolded him a few times and said, "Your girl is right behind, she's in a bad mood, go and pick up your own girl."
Zhu Biao was already used to the weird words in his mouth, but he didn't know the meaning: "What is a bubble."
"It's just a pursuit, to make her happy, I can't do without you..." Ning Yi explained.
"Then I don't need to soak it. We are all engaged. I know she is in a bad mood. I have already told her that Song Jiang's head will be taken for... er, to vent your anger for everyone."
"Women are not like this, they have to be coaxed." This guy was a bit shy, Ning Yi was helpless to him, and explained the importance of coaxing women. After listening, Zhu Biao thought for a while and got out of the carriage. Ruzi can be taught, and Ning Yi still appreciates his attitude.
Then when it was time to camp this evening, Ning Yi went out to hang out and saw Zhu Biao chatting with Su Wenyu, Qi Xinhan and others over there: "Brother Ning is very smart, he is a great mother-in-law, a man and a man, how can you coax a woman? …”
"Well, that's what my second brother-in-law is about..." Su Wenyu nodded in agreement and waved his hand, "He talks about picking up girls all day, actually, let me tell you, I don't think he can pick up girls at all... …”
A few people stood there, and then laughed arrogantly...
After this day passed, in the early morning of July 11th, it was just dawn, and groups of figures were marching through the dark mountains.
Yan Qing was running in the army formation, his eyes swept around in the darkness, showing the outlines of grass, stones, and trees. He felt a little anxious in his heart, and the heights at the foot of the mountain were approaching.
Crossing the foothills, the wind was blowing, and the scenery stretched out in front of the eyes. In the mountains below the field of vision, a small river meandered through, and the sparsely spotted lights formed the outline of a small county town.
"Brother Yan."
Someone came up next to him, it was Hua Rong.
"It's finally here. After turning around for so long, they must never have imagined..."
When the wind blew through the mountains and the sky was slightly white with fish belly, a cool white mist lingered in the air. Some people went out to carry water outside the small county town. On the road, a group of business travelers of more than ten people came here. , was questioned.
After a while, someone suddenly warned people on the city tower of the small county town. At the city gate, the merchants suddenly drew their swords, and blood splashed in the early morning fog.
On July 11th, after leading the officers and soldiers around for a few days, everyone in Liangshan faltered a shot, turned to the east, and took Fengping County, where there were only about 6,000 residents, with the slogan of revenge for the brothers Zhu Fu and Zhu Gui. After killing hundreds of people in the county, mainly the big households with the surname He, he set a fire, and then fled north of the city. Under the circumstance that the entire strategic situation in Yunzhou was continuously tightened, the operation at the tactical level successfully gave Wu Ruiying, Ning Yi and others a sharp dismount.
Liangshan people may not dare to slaughter a county, but for the government, this is also a deterrent gesture that cannot be ignored. On the afternoon of July 12th, everyone from Liangshan appeared outside Raoping County. They probably felt that the cost of capturing the county seat was too high. live.
Taking advantage of Wu Ruiying's hesitation at this moment, more than 3,000 people turned around decisively, climbed over the mountains, and on the night of July 13th, they rushed down toward their ultimate goal!
The decisive battle is coming.
I finished writing this chapter at about ten o'clock, and it took me more than two hours to revise it, because I will decide the destination of the entire Liangshan, and it was still past twelve o'clock in the end.
