Xianxia version of Water Margin

…

After listening to Chen Xizhen's story about the magic of the Nine Yang Divine Bell, Yun Tianbiao and others were stunned!

They finally understood why Chen Xizhen didn't build a brick city, set up trenches, or set up camps and fences at the Zhangjiadaokou. Because he had this magical bell, there was no need for these things.

This made Yun Tianbiao's doubts disappear.

However, shortly after Chen Xizhen left, Yun Tianbiao's suspicions arose again:

"Chen Xizhen's daughter is Jiang Yan's concubine, and his relatives Liu Guang and his family are all thieves. Although he and Lin Chong have a grudge against Lin Chong for killing his brother, Chen Xiyi died of illness after all. It's okay to force Lai Lin Chong to kill him, but if he says It has nothing to do with Lin Chong, but it has nothing to do with it; what he said is that if you are loyal, you will not be a robber, and if you are a robber, you will not be loyal. It is indeed reasonable, but he has been the leader of Yuanbi Village for three years, so he can be regarded as a robber... …”

However, Yun Tianbiao cannot classify Chen Xizhen as a bandit because of this. After all, in the three years that Chen Xizhen has been the leader of Yuanbi Village, Yuanbi Village has not made enemies of the government and the army; nor has it looted villages or harmed civilians; nor has it plundered villages or harmed civilians. There is no fornication with Shuibo Liangshan, Manichae, Longhushan, Fangshan and other groups of thieves.

The key is that Chen Xizhen was recruited by Gao Qiu. If Yun Tianbiao doubted Chen Xizhen, it would be equivalent to doubting Gao Qiu, his biggest backer in the Zhao and Song Dynasties.

yes.

Teacher Zhong also admires Yun Tianbiao.

But the influence of Zhongshi Dao is now only in the Western Army. In the Zhao and Song Dynasties, how can Zhongshi Dao be compared with Gao Qiu?

The key point is that Chen Xizhen did not lie to Yun Tianbiao. He even explained the function of the Nine Yang Divine Bell, and it didn't look like he had any bad intentions.

To be honest, Yun Tianbiao should not doubt Chen Xizhen.

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

After thinking about it, Yun Tianbiao brought Feng Hui, Ouyang Shouting, Ha Lansheng, Ha Yunsheng, Mian Yixin, Ma Yuan, Huangfu Xiong and others over to discuss.

After hearing Yun Tianbiao explain his concerns, Haransheng said: "I don't have any problem with Mr. Chen. He seems to be a wise man, not a treacherous villain."

Feng Hui hesitated for a moment and agreed with Yun Tianbiao: "It is always right to be cautious."

Ha Yunsheng suggested: "How about we just wait for the large group of people to kill, then go to the stronghold there, and then see what is true?"

Yun Tianbiao said: "You can only see through the reality and reality, and then advance your troops. How can you advance your troops first and then see the reality and reality?"

Ma Yuan said: "However, if you are too careful, it is also a disease. There is no evidence, it is all our doubts. If we cannot leave Yizhou for Xingren Mansion as soon as possible and delay the military period, we will be punished by Gao Taiwei." The crime of military aircraft.”

Huang Puxiong also said: "If we don't trust Chen Xizhen and push Chen Xizhen to rebel and join the Liangshan bandits, not to mention that Captain Gao will not be able to tolerate us. Even in this Yizhou, we are afraid that we will not be able to get through. Don't do it." Forgot, Xiao Jiasui’s guys are still hanging behind, if his family attacks us from both sides, how can we be invincible?”

Ouyang Shou said: "Neither the left nor the right. Since we are afraid of his divine bell, our army will not advance entirely. Should I lead a partial army first, take advantage of his unpreparedness, sneak in, demolish his bell tower, and then advance?"

Yun Tianbiao shook his head.

This must never be done.

You know, it is only Yun Tianbiao who is doubting now, and it is doubt without evidence or sign.

Once they act so recklessly, they will definitely offend Chen Xizhen to death. If they really push Chen Xizhen to the point of drowning in Liangshan, then they will be self-defeating and do the stupidest thing.

Also, when Chen Xizhen left, he said that when they passed the Zhangjia Road crossing, he would use the Nine Yang Divine Bell to deal with Xiao Jiasui and the others. If Chen Xizhen succeeded, not only would he break Jiang Hongfei's arm, but he would also break Jiang Hongfei's finger. .

If they broke the Nine-Yang Divine Bell, they would be destroying their martial arts, asking for hardship, and even asking for death.

After thinking for a long time, Yun Tianbiao said: "His Nine-Yang Divine Bell struck once, but within a radius of one mile, all the living creatures that flew away were so intoxicated that they could not move. Then we will divide the army into ten armies. Each army marches two miles apart. In this way, even if he cheats, he will only harm one of my armies at most."

Ma Yuan said: "But this, I'm afraid Manager Chen can still see it. Are we guarding against him?"

Yun Tianbiao said calmly: "You can see it when you see it. If you sail a ten thousand year ship carefully, I have to take responsibility for our 70,000 to 80,000 horses."

In fact, Yun Tianbiao also felt from the bottom of his heart that what he did was a bit unreasonable.

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

Therefore, after hesitating again and again, Yun Tianbiao added in a more obvious way: "I have already taken the overall situation into consideration. Otherwise, out of caution, I will send someone to destroy the divine bell, or teach Mr. Chen to collect the divine bell." Get up and cross this intersection again."

No one took what Yun Tianbiao said.

Because most people think that Yun Tianbiao is making a fuss out of a molehill.

Only a small number of people support Yun Tianbiao, but they also feel that if Yun Tianbiao does this, he will definitely offend Chen Xizhen.

No matter what.

At Yun Tianbiao's suggestion, both the people of Zhengyi Village and the people of Qingzhen Mountain were divided into teams of seven to eight thousand, with each team separated by two miles, following the 10,000 elite soldiers led by Chen Xizhen. March towards the Zhangjia Road crossing.

At this time, the sky was getting dark soon, the night was cloudy and the stars were dim. Looking at the entrance of Zhangjia Road, it was dark and nothing could be seen. Only the bell tower was lit with lights, which could be seen more than ten miles away.

After a while, the moon rose.

Under the bright moonlight, Haransheng led seven or eight thousand people from Zhengyi Village into the area of ​​the Zhangjia Road crossing.

After a distance of about two miles, Ha Yunsheng also led seven or eight thousand people from Zhengyi Village into the area of ​​the Zhangjia Road crossing.

Next, the troops from Zhengyi Village and Qingzhen Mountain marched in sequence, with Yun Tianbiao, Feng Hui and Ouyang Shoutong leading their own troops behind.

Haransheng, who was walking at the front, soon came to the foot of the Nine Yang 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 The top of the mountain, seven miles away from the city. The one hundred and forty-four steps around the bell tower are blocked by red walls; inside and outside, there are 500 sergeants guarding the bell; Harlanson also recognizes the leader of the bell tower, who is Gou Ying, the general under Chen Xizhen.

Harlanson observed for a while. The mountain was steep and steep. He eagerly tried to attack the mountain and destroy the Nine Sun Divine Bell, but he couldn't.

After leaving the Jiuyang Divine Bell for more than a mile like a quickie, Haransheng felt relieved.

This time, Haransheng felt that it was Yun Tianbiao who treated Chen Xizhen as a gentleman with a villain's heart.

Next, Haransheng confidently and boldly led his seven or eight thousand troops to continue walking along the Zhangjia Road entrance to the outside of Yizhou.

The people behind saw that Haransheng and the others had successfully passed the Zhangjia Road crossing, and they all secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Ma Yuan even suggested to Yun Tianbiao: "Mr. Chen should be fine, why don't we go together?"

Yun Tianbiao shook his head: "I have already offended Chen Daozi. I will apologize to him again after we all successfully pass the Zhangjia Road crossing."

Because of Yun Tianbiao's insistence, the people in Qingzhen Mountain continued to divide into teams of seven to eight thousand, with each team separated by two miles and heading towards the Zhangjia Road crossing.

It wasn't until Haransheng and the others who were walking at the front were more than twenty miles away from Yun Tianbiao and the others who had not moved yet that Yun Tianbiao felt relieved. He felt that he was making too much of a fuss and must have offended Chen Xizhen, and he began to think about what to do. Apologize to Chen Xizhen?

At this time, Feng Hui and Ouyang Shouting came to Yun Tianbiao and asked, "Will our Chinese Army also be split up?"

Yun Tianbiao thought for a while and said, "Forget it, Haransheng and the others went out for more than 20 miles without any incident. There should be no problem. Our 20,000 troops will not be separated."

As he spoke, Yun Tianbiao was about to give an order: The whole army sets off!

But at this moment, I could only hear the sound of the Nine-Yang Divine Bell from Kunlun breaking through the cliff, and the sound of thunder flying from the ground. Then the master at the entrance of Zhangjia Road at the foot of the mountain shouted a horse neighing, and when the Xi Banquet was received in the sky, the sound of thunder was flying. There was a loud noise, like a cymbal falling to the ground. After the sound of golden drums and the sky, with the divine bell as the center, all living creatures within a radius of nine miles were so intoxicated that they could not move.

Yun Tianbiao and the others looked at the 6,000 or 7,000 men and horses in Qingzhen Mountain, which was not far away from them. Whether they were humans or horses, including the cattle, sheep, pigs, donkeys, mules, chickens, ducks and geese they were carrying, they all fell to the ground in a state of intoxication. , unable to move.

Yun Tianbiao was shocked and quickly ordered: "Quickly retreat!"

Following Yun Tianbiao's order, his less than 20,000 men immediately retreated ten miles, found a place that was easy to defend but difficult to attack, and descended the village gate.

After confirming that they were safe for the time being, Yun Tianbiao said: "I said Chen Xizhen must have a conspiracy. He has given birth to many daughters to Jiang Yan's children. Can he really accept the imperial court's recruitment? He just suffered a lot. The righteous men of the village and Qingzhen Mountain will surely be killed. This road is also cut off and cannot be attacked."

Feng Hui also said with lingering fear: "The range of his divine bell is definitely not just one mile in radius, but ten miles is about the same! Thank you for being cautious, nephew, otherwise we will follow in the footsteps of Zhengyi Village and Qingzhen Mountain!"

At this time, the man who was left behind by Yun Tianbiao to check the news came back and reported: "After the army withdrew, thousands of people wearing turbans came and captured all the people in Zhengyi Village and Qingzhen Mountain alive. "

When Yun Tianbiao heard this, his heart ached!

The 60,000 men in Zhengyi Village and Qingzhen Mountain were his capital for advancement. Without these 60,000 men, how could he be looked down upon by the snobbish eyes again? How could he possibly complete his transformation into a senior officer?

"Oh! I don't know how many years I have to endure this?!"

Yun Tianbiao then went to the entrances of each village, captured several 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 I live here, I really don't know the details. Since the bell tower was built, it has never been bumped into. I only heard the four-line song of those minions chanting: Good A nine-yang bell, it only needs to be struck with one sound: Ten thousand soldiers from the Song Dynasty are here to capture five thousand pairs alive. I don’t know what it means.”

After hearing this, Yun Tianbiao felt extremely regretful. If he had sent people to capture the villagers at the entrance of each village earlier, he would have known who Chen Xizhen and the people from Yuanbi Village were, and he would not have killed so many people!

But it's too late to mention this regret now. The most urgent task is how to escape Shandong through Yizhou and join Gao Qiu?

Now, Yun Tianbiao and the others are preceded by the Yuanjishan troops led by Chen Xizhen to seal the road, and followed by tens of thousands of pursuing troops led by Xiao Jiasui and others. With Yun Tianbiao and the others losing their troops and losing their morale, if they are outflanked from front to back, they will The 20,000 men and horses are likely to be wiped out.

Yun Tianbiao thought for a while and said: "For the current plan, the only way is to get over the Wei River and leave Yizhou."

Feng Hui said worriedly: "If he defends along the Wei River and attacks halfway across the river, our army will suffer heavy losses again."

Yun Tianbiao said: "It's difficult to plan things, so we can only move with a camera. We must first separate people to explore the path before we can confront him."

In the evening, the scouts sent by Yun Tianbiao came to report one after another: "Xiao Jiasui's pursuers are less than thirty miles away. Chen Xizhen's Zhen Xianglin and Fan Chenglong and the leader of the Qingyun Mountain branch Di Yun led 20,000 troops. Camping under the water on the west bank of the Wei River, Chen Xizhen himself set up camp on the other side of the river, leaning against the mountain. There is no pontoon bridge in the Wei River, and there is not a ferry. The camp of Chen Xizhen's army is divided into five camps, divided into east, west, south, north, middle, and Haitanghua. The three camps of Zhen Xianglin, Fan Chenglong and Di Yun are arranged in a three-dimensional manner, with the Wei River behind them."

Then another scout came to report: "There was no one or one horse at the Zhangjia Road entrance. I looked around and found no one. There was only a bell tower about ten miles away, in the middle, and a few huts next to it. I think some soldiers lived there. There is nothing else left. Even if strangers come and go, there will be no inspection."

Yun Tianbiao asserted: "The entrance to the Zhangjia Road must be on guard. Don't pay attention to him. We will break out of the Wei River before Xiao Jiasui catches up!"

Feng Hui reminded: "There must be a reason for him to camp against the water. How can we defeat him?"

Yun Tianbiao said confidently: "It makes sense for me to break out of the stronghold and move forward. We set up camp at a dangerous place in front of us. Our soldiers have just arrived and are very energetic. We don't need to fight with him. We can win in a melee with him. Our soldiers may be at a disadvantage. You can retreat."

The generals of the Song Dynasty followed their words and ordered the three armies to have a good meal and set up their strongholds, only three or two miles away from the Wei River. They set up three camps one by one according to the woods.

After setting up camp, Yun Tianbiao said to the Song generals: "Since we are fighting with him, we can divide the generals and horses into four teams. If the good and the good complement each other, we will definitely gain great profits."

All the generals said: "That makes sense."

The division has been decided, and Yun Tianbiao is about to lead his troops out into battle. Suddenly he hears loud shouts in the right barracks, and the sound of fighting is loud. He comes to report repeatedly: "Hua Rong and Luan Tingyu have robbed the stronghold and have entered the enclosure. The soldiers and horses are unknown." Where did it come from.”

Yun Tianbiao was shocked and hurriedly sent an order: "The right camp has been caught in a treacherous trick. The center army and the left camp have stopped moving. Don't go to rescue them. There must be foreign troops there. But there are foreign troops coming to rob the second camp on the left. No. Ask how many, just shoot the god's arm bow away, don't let him get close to the stronghold."

Before the words were finished, the fire was already breaking out behind the central camp, food and grass were piled up, and people and horses were running around in disorder.

Yun Tianbiao only taught him to stop moving, and to kill anyone who moved rashly. He only used his divine arm bow to protect the central army, and also ordered the left camp to do the same.

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

Not long after, Zhen Xianglin came out from behind Yuntianbiao's camp again, and took advantage of the situation to set fire to the food, but was 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 killed everyone they encountered.

The Song army in the right camp was unprepared and was killed by Ma Wujun and Ma Liujun.

Soon, Ma Wujun and Ma Liujun joined forces, defeated the right camp, beheaded countless people, and finally captured Yun Tianbiao's general Ouyang Shoutong alive, clapped the victory drum, and retreated to the back.

Fan Chenglong, Di Yun, and Zhen Xianglin also withdrew their troops at the same time, and then defended with their backs to the water.

At this time, Yun Tianbiao only had more than 10,000 horses left and were surrounded by the Liangshan Army in front of the Wei River. There was no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the earth...
