Chapter 45: The north and the south are both safe and the world is prosperous

At the end of June of the 10th year of Wu Jinghan, the battle of Liangshan in Shandong was mixed with the huge drama of Wu Chao's expedition to the north at this time, and did not cause too much vibration at this time. Although those with sensitive touch could feel some of them from it, compared with the boiling situation of the overall situation, even if someone could take the situation here seriously, the information obtained was always insignificant. The statement that the inner demon Ning Liheng broke Liangshan in three days was extremely popular in later generations, which was still under the eternal achievements of Tong Guanfu Yanyun, just like a small tributary in the tide of history, was ignored and rushed into the forest and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

During the period when these people were active, even in the north, Wanyan Aguda led the rise of the Jin people, and Xiao Gan of Liao Kingdom supported the last afterglow of a great empire, the name of Ning Liheng appeared, which was just a small evidence to add to the statement that "heroes emerged" at this time - at least in the Wu Dynasty not long later, with the continuous publicity of the great achievements of Yan Yun, a great era had arrived filled everyone's hearts. The statement similar to "heroes emerged" has also been filled with the chats on the streets and alleys, giving people an extremely intense and exciting mood.

Not many people know that after a few years, all this became the afterglow and afterglow of an empire, and the silhouette of a broader era. In this era, the strongest and most decisive torrent originated from this. When later historians traced back from the back, they had tried countless times to clear away all the fog, clear away all the noisy curtains of the times, pushing away Yanyun in the north and Fang La in the south, trying to turn their eyes to Shandong, and see where the small stream that was rushing into the woods began to turn into a vast river...

At the end of June, more than a thousand prisoners of Liangshan were left in the military camp of Wurui Camp. In the battle of Liangshan, these more than a thousand people took down more than three companions' heads. Regardless of the way, they were all kept after the identity was archived.

Being locked in a military camp as a prisoner, the initial life was not easy. Most of the people who wanted to trade their heads for wealth and honor were understood that they were put on a verbal hand, and the soldiers of Wurui camp would not give them a good look. During the month-long detention, every day they spent basically in the threat of death and hunger. News from the outside world only came little by little, including Song Jiang's execution, cleaning up the entire water pond, and killing each other with companions outside...

The collapse of the overall situation has worn away a lot of their will to resist. Although Wu Rui Camp was a little unbearable when facing Liangshan, at this time, he was absolutely cruel and ruthless against the prisoners. It was basically useless to protest. For them, both local officials and generals of Wu Rui Camp had an unreleased attitude. After a month of hunger, most of the more than a thousand people were dispersed and incorporated into the Wu Dynasty's army. It was like dripping water into a big river. Not many of them could survive in more than ten years.

Among them, a total of 507 people signed a contract for ten years at that time and joined a merchant named Zhuji. About a few months later, more than 100 people were sent to the army one after another. After the initial batch of screening, there were a total of 382 people accepted by Zhuji.

These people have not yet joined any major event or have a brightly written enlightenment in later generations. Of course, for later generations, these 382 people are just a symbolic number, and may not be what they support, just because they mean the beginning.

And this beginning is not necessarily bright and majestic.

In late July, when Ning Yi first came to Wurui Camp, he decided to stay and belong to more than a thousand people. He confessed to these people the views of the surrounding officials on their stay and stay, either to be exiled to the army, gain freedom after achieving achievements, or to join Zhuji and sell himself for ten years. After that, all the affairs, livelihoods, etc. of these people were borne by himself.

Ning Yi's face was not healthy at that time, and Chen Ci was plain and indifferent. On this side, more than a thousand people who had been hungry for more than a month did not dare to protest too much. The entire selection process was completed within two days. Then Ning Yi paid a sufficient amount of bonus for each head, especially for those who went to join the army. While paying the money, they were reminded to go to the military camp to manage their money and other things, so that they could live a better life. Later, some people benefited from it, and a small number of people were harmed by these silver.

The most direct followers about Liangshan, in addition to Qin Siyuan's Right Prime Minister's Mansion, actually the power of the Taiwei Mansion was involved. At first, they might have just paid attention. When they learned about the methods that Ning Yi showed when he broke Liangshan, they used the chaos of others declaring him as "intellectual demon", Gao Qiu issued an order to Zhou Tong, who happened to pass by here. For him, this was a good move after learning about Ning Yi's friction with his own family. After the failure, the Taiwei Mansion, who was unwilling to face the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, fell silent, and both of them put this matter in their memory.

Only the 500 people who were left behind became the most realistic problem before Ning Yi at that time. Whether it was Wang Shanyue, Zhu Biao, Lu Hongti and others, they all initially raised objections. Whether these people can be safe and safe after taking them into the Zhuji is a huge question. In these years, if you have money, you can hire experts in the world, recruit domestic slaves, and buy those poor people who can't afford to eat. These people have no hatred in their hearts, and their loyalty is much more reliable than the more than 500 people in Liangshan.

Later historians investigated this point and occasionally raised similar questions, but the process of how these people were trained and even brainwashed by Ning Yi seemed to be deliberately obscured by Ning Yi, and did not leave too much information. The participants at that time did not talk much about this matter later. If someone really wanted to investigate this matter, they might find some fragmented things.

After dealing with the issue of selling their bodies by these people, Ning Yi and others established a closed camp near Dulonggang. Ning Yi stayed here for about a month, and after everything was on track, Su Wenyu was responsible for the whole thing. In the memory of the residents of Dulonggang, the exercise in the camp was basically a simple stand, sit, and walk. At night, a group of people often sat together and talked, and sometimes the voice inside would be very loud.

In addition, several riots occurred and were suppressed.

After about three months of this kind of thing, the camp will be semi-closed. The remaining nearly 400 people here will come out to do something for Dulonggang. In the middle of winter, they will cut dry firewood outside Dulonggang, or at the door of some people. Some people will put down the silver they have saved.

At this time, the residents of Dulonggang still hated the remnants of Liangshan. Every time they did this, Zhu Biao and others had to pull people up to tell the farmers not to make extreme actions. But not many people understood why these people became like this within a few months.

This incident became an unsolved mystery for a long time. Three months later, the second group of people entered the semi-closed camp, which were more than 300 young people bought from all over the place when winter came. After that, this group of young people trained them in one-to-one manner for about half a year, becoming part of the Bamboo Record. After the third group of young people came out, the 382 people belonging to Liangshan finally scattered to various places in the Bamboo Record... These are all later stories.

In early August, Hongti sat there on the hillside where the sun sets, watching the camp gradually built at the foot of the mountain. Ning Yi came from behind, looked at the sunset, and sat down beside her.

Far away, more than 500 people at the foot of the mountain were practicing neat formations. Under Ning Yi's harsh demands and the threat of death, the formation was really too neat.

"I'm still a little worried. You keep these people by your side." Hongti said, "If you continue practicing like this, ordinary people can certainly prohibit orders, but in their hearts, they have a grudge against you. If you ask those monks to come over and tell them all the great principles every night, they may not understand."

"They will understand." Ning Yi smiled.

Hongti shook her head: "I am still worried about your safety. I am not smart. You... tell me seriously. I will try my best to tell them what they have done wrong these days. Is it really useful?"

Ning Yi was silent for a moment: "I'm afraid of... it's not just useful. Don't think too much, this is not a good thing, I will only use this one time..."

"Divine and mysterious."

Hongti looked at him and hugged her knees. For several days, when in front of others, Hongti always maintained her temperament as Ning Yi. She wore a tulle hat and a dress that Ning Yi chose for her with a very "female hero" and "master" temperament. When she followed Ning Yi, not many people dared to ignore her. Especially at the moment when her record of chasing Liangshan people was made public, the name "Heshan Iron Sword" Lu Hongti has spread all over Qilu, and together with the "Inner Demon", it will become a star-killing demon that no one dares to provoke.

Zhu Chaofeng and others from Dulonggang had to salute her respectfully, sitting on the head when sitting in the living room, sitting on the table with dinner. Hongti was originally indifferent and didn't care about such things, but Ning Yi was keen on this. Every time she raised her seniority, Hongti had to look like a master. Zhu Biao had asked her several times, but within a few moves, he was snatched the gun with no hand. Only Luan Tingyu could play some tricks with her, but she could not beat her. The people in Dulonggang now have great awe of this female master.

Only when there was no one, the two of them could be casual. At this time, they were not displeased with their tone. She just thought Ning Yi was very powerful, but she was a little proud of it.

Ning Yi smiled and held her shoulder: "I will be responsible. But you, if you return to Luliang Mountain, you must be careful. Don't always try your best and wait for me to come to you."

Hongti nodded: "If the Liao Kingdom is defeated, Luliang should be able to be peaceful for a while. If the Wu Dynasty really recovered the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, there will be no grass valley in the future."

"If this is true, it would be a good thing, but... don't take it lightly..."

"……Um."

As one of the best martial arts masters in the world, she leaned on her lover's shoulders, looking at the sunset, and she also had some longing in her eyebrows.

The incident of Tong Guan restoring Yanjing has spread all over the Wuchao. Under the orange sunset, the evening breeze blew the decaying grass on the hillside, flying into the air, blew the clothes and hair of the two, and drifting to the distance with the woman's longing and the man's prudence. Although the development of the situation may not be as good as others wish, the scene of the two sitting together and the warmth in their hearts can be remembered from time to time...

Even if she will return to the harsh mountains and fields again and fight against all malicious intentions, she will no longer be confused. Because outside the mountains and fields, there is a person coming in through obstacles. Thinking of this, the heart and sword will calm down, and will also support her to become the iron-blooded sword that truly guards the entire Luliang.

Not long after, in a small room in Lan Huandong, Miaojiang, a girl named Liu Xigua sat there, looking at the little sunlight shot through the window frame, and tears fell from her cheeks. Because on this day, she received the news that just a few days ago, the officers and soldiers broke through Qingxi and outside Zitong Cave, Sheng Gong Fang La led the remaining troops to break through but failed. After three days of fighting, he died at the death. Empress Shao Xianying had committed suicide. Fang Qifo, Fang Baihua and others led a very small number of remaining troops to escape.

Liu Tiannan brought tea and came in from outside the door: "Girl, stop being sad...this matter..."

Liu Xigua raised her face, and the sun shone on the rolling tears: "I insist on it."

"Oh..." Liu Tiannan put down the tea and finally retreated.

After all, the Badao Camp was raised with Fang La. After the battle in Hangzhou, there were only 800 young and strong people who could fight, and they had to protect one or two thousand old and weak families. Ning Yi made plans to transfer and gain a foothold, and Xigua also chose to separate from Fang La, who was already in a desperate situation. Now that things have come to this, she can only ensure the survival of the Badao Camp.

After that, Chen Fan led some people to leave and return to Qingxi to save people. When the battle situation there was critical, some passionate men wanted to help these companions who had fought together. Xigua refused to give in to these things, but in fact, the relationship between her and Fang La and others was far deeper than the ties between others and Fang La.

In a sense, since Liu Dabiao's death, Shenggong Fang La, Shao Xianying, and Fang Baihua are almost her closest family members.

She once persuaded Fang La to escape from other places, but Fang La refused. At this time, for the sake of the survival of the Badao Camp, she was sitting on the verge of these relatives to die, Liu Tiannan and some people in the Badao Camp who were closer to her could empathize with it.

After Liu Tiannan left, Xigua sat there for a long time again, and finally took out a few pieces of paper from her sleeve. At this time, the quality of the paper was not good at this time. Perhaps it was because she had been looked at many times. Several pieces of paper of large and small were worn out. It was the news that "The Demon of the Heart Conquered Liangshan" came from outside not long ago. Later, she inquired about it and got all these pieces of paper, but she could not put together the whole picture of the incident.

"Ning Liheng..." She sniffed, then wiped away the tears hard, so that he could not let him look down!

She didn't say anything, but looking at the light coming from outside the window, she felt like she wanted to cry again.

Where are you...

——After Fang La was awarded the title of the head, the trouble of Yongle, which was a hot topic, finally came to an end.

In the tenth year of Jinghan in the Wu Dynasty, both north and south were determined. At the end of August, Ning Yi returned to Bianliang. It was a clear autumn with singing and dancing. Soon after, a chain business system called Zhuji stretched out its tentacles on the land of the Wu Dynasty and expanded like a monster...

The prelude to a great era has already begun.

ps: The fourth episode ends here. From the perspective of concept, the entire fourth episode is a later episode. Many lines are put down here, including the thread tips of Bianliang, the thread tips of Guo Yaoshi, the thread tips of Lin Chong, the thread tips of Zhou Pei, etc., and Ning Yi’s reasons for why he should do things, can finally be initially formed here. In terms of the concept of inheriting the past and opening up the future, everything should be done.
Chapter completed!
