Raining bells. The night sky is like the sea.

The night sky is like the sea, the moonlight is like waves, and the stars are like foam. The thin mist does not block the distant view, and the endless sky and earth are vast. I have been lying down for thirty years, and I have returned to the stream and wild slopes. As I look, I see a vast plain, covered with moonlight and cold autumn snow.

Retreating is like singing and resting, but how can we go from the countryside to the sky? There is always loneliness in the sun, and no one can share that wasted time. Ambition is once again, regardless of success or failure. Another glance is the bright moon in the sky, and I am running around with enthusiasm.

The patriotic man mentioned in the book below was named Xin Qiji. His original name was Tanfu, and later his name was changed to You'an and his name was Jiaxuan. After the Jingkang Revolution, the Jin Dynasty occupied the Jinan Prefecture of the Song Dynasty. A generation of heroes, both good fortune and meritorious deeds.

Endurance; a world-renowned hero, overshadowed by his martial arts and martial arts. Once he devoted himself to the fight against the Jin Kingdom and was determined to regain the lost territory, he could not fulfill his achievements and never retreated throughout his life. It was hard to achieve his ambition with a hundred efforts, but he was so ambitious that many young men in later generations looked up to him but stopped.

I can't help but sigh and lament.

Looking southeast, northwest, the man is in Tiangang.

His body is full of bones and his face is full of strength.

How much love is lost, how many things are left unfinished.

If there are clothes in the heart, will the clothes be wet with tears?

Time flies, and twenty-five years have passed in the blink of an eye. During this period, the Great Song Dynasty suffered from the Jingkang crisis, the color of the world changed, and the situation changed. In the eleventh year of Shaoxing and the Jin Dynasty, the "Shaoxing Peace Agreement" was signed, and the two countries were bounded by the Huaishui River and Dashan Pass.

, Bozhou Kan County is located to the north of the Huaihe River, but it has been affiliated to the Jin Kingdom. This was the 16th year of Shaoxing in the Song Dynasty and the 6th year of the Jin Dynasty.

Fan Yantang and Dang Chunmu had already agreed to go to Jinan to meet Xin Zan. They said goodbye first at Song Jiang's tomb, and then to Han Shizhong's residence to say goodbye.

It turns out that since the Jin invaded the Song Dynasty, the Song Dynasty lost troops and generals, lost cities and territory, and even suffered the humiliation of the two Huiqin clans and the royal family being taken captive. Later, through the four generals of Han Shizhong, Yue Fei, Liu Guangshi, Zhang Jun and Zhongxing, as well as Wu Jie, Wu Lin and Liu Qi

, Yang Cunzhong led his troops to fight to the death, and then supported Huizong's ninth son, Kang Wang Zhao Gou, to the throne. Although he eventually lost the capital of Kaifeng, he was able to establish the capital of Lin'an and regain half of the country.

When Yue Fei, Han Shizhong and other armies were winning steadily and were about to regain the great rivers and mountains of the Central Plains, Qin Hui colluded with the Jin State and killed Yue Fei. Then he took over the military power of Han Shizhong and other leading generals, advocated peace talks, and signed the "Shaoxing Peace Treaty". In the end, he lost power and humiliated the country and lost his country.

However, all the families took charge of war and sent generals to restore the country.

At that time, Han Shizhong was unable to prevent Yue Fei from being killed, and he had just had his military power reduced. He had resigned from the post of Privy Councilor. Seeing that the Lord Harmony faction was gaining more and more power, he had no choice but to show off and thank his guests, not talk about military affairs, and enjoy himself leisurely in the West Lake without interfering in state affairs.

He was an ordinary subordinate in the past, and it was difficult to see him. He secretly contacted his comrades and old die-hard subordinates. One was to secretly lead the anti-Jin rebels in the Jin border north of the Huai River, and the other was to spy on the enemy's military defense, border guards, troops, government orders, and military aircraft.

, the third is to master the secret cashier's orders of the undercover spies sent, and the fourth is to strictly prevent Jin and Xia's spies from infiltrating the Song Dynasty. All the above matters are to regain some of the old offices of the Privy Council, the Imperial City Department, the Ministry of War, etc., and to assist secretly

The rule of the Song Dynasty.

Han Shizhong and his wife Liang Hongyu often lived in a small village in the north of Kan County, Haozhou. There were no high-walled mansions here, but there were quite a few ordinary households. In the dense forest in the north of Zhuang, there was a large courtyard. There were many in front of it.

There are laurel trees, jujube trees, and pomegranates planted, and the back of the house is backed by the Guohe River. The back wall of the house is rooted from a row of elm trees, and there is a patch of moso bamboo all over the river bank, stretching to the river. The fences are sparse, and they all surround a courtyard; there are many houses.

They are all from one household.

Dang Chunmu had been a subordinate of Han Shizhong for a long time, and Fan Yantang was Mrs. Liang's niece and son-in-law. They were both frequent visitors, so they went straight to the lobby as usual.

The two of them entered the living room and were both stunned. Although this place was set up in a manor, it was an important place for Marshal Han to defend against the Jin Kingdom. Those important figures always walked alone and rarely gathered in groups. Today, there were actually seven or eight people sitting there.

There are so many people.

Seeing a scholar-looking man sitting on the main seat in the center, he was dressed in white and was about forty or fifty years old. His face was pale, and the black fibrous roots under his jaw were very piercing, which was particularly eye-catching. He supported his cheek with his left hand, closed his eyes slightly, and breathed evenly.

He was actually tired and was resting. The two of them were surprised. Yantang paid it back. Dang Chunmu was a close subordinate of Marshal Han. They didn't know who this person was, but he actually took Marshal Han's seat.

The man on the left is in his fifties, tall, with a big face and piercing eyes. He wears a long blue gown and is dressed like a country squire. He cannot conceal his majestic and majestic appearance. Naturally, he is Marshal Han Shizhong.

The man next to Marshal Han is in his forties. He sits with his head held high and his chest tall. He is nine feet tall when sitting. His face is as black as the bottom of a pot. He is similar to Song Zhong, but much darker; Leopard

The man with a ring of hair and eyes is similar to Li Kui, but he is much more energetic. He has two straight yellow eyebrows and a blood-stained red beard under his chin. He is dressed in coarse black clothes and is dressed like a strong farmer. Fan Yantang doesn't recognize him, but Dang is pure and friendly.

I recognized him as General Dong Xian during the lifetime of Marshal Yue Fei.

The third person on the left is dressed as a businessman. He is also in his forties, short and lean, with thin cheeks and protruding eyes. He is also only familiar with Dang Chunhu. When he entered the hall, he nodded to him, but he couldn't help but look at Fan Yantang.

When he looked to the right, Yantang was even more surprised than before. The man in the front was wearing a vermilion official uniform, sitting impressively, and it was particularly eye-catching. He was Li Qiong, the rebel general of the Song Dynasty. In his early years, this man led his troops to rebel against the Song Dynasty and join the puppet Qi Dynasty.

Liu Yu then sent money, and was now appointed as the magistrate of Bozhou. He was a powerful official of the Jin Kingdom. I didn't expect that he would be sitting here today.

When Yantang saw the second person on the right, he couldn't help but feel happy. It turned out to be Zhang Rong, his junior brother. When the thirty-six brothers of Chao Gai and Songjiang revolted, there were also Fan Yantang, Zhang Shun's nephew Zhang Rong, and Shi Jin's nephew Shi Bin.

Waiting for his disciples to follow. After Song Jiang committed suicide, there was nothing for a few years. Soon the Jin Kingdom invaded the Central Plains, and the wars and disasters continued, making the people even more miserable. So Shi Bin started an uprising in Xingzhou, and Zhang Rong started an uprising in Shuibo Liangshan to resist the oppression of the Jin government.

and troubles caused by soldiers and bandits.

Xingzhou is located in Shaanxi Province, and is the key point of the Jin army's southward invasion in the west. The Jin and Song Dynasties repeatedly fought for it. Unfortunately, Shi Bin was defeated by the Jin and Song Dynasties. The Jin country was an enemy country, and he was conquered by it and refused. Shi Bin

In fact, he was eventually killed at the hands of the Song Army, which has always made our senior brother Fan Yantang worried about him.

The situation after Zhang Rong's uprising was different from that of Shi Bin. Liangshan was located in the hinterland of the anti-golden empire. After Emperor Jianyan Zhao Gou fled south, Zhang Rong found it difficult to gain a foothold, so he led his army by boat to go south along the Qinghe River in the lower reaches of Surabaya, and met Xue Qing, the defender of Chengzhou in the Song Dynasty.

Echoing each other from a distance, they won many victories and their momentum grew. Later, although Zhang Rong was the only remaining army in Huaidong, he retreated first to Taizhou and Tongzhou, but still continued to fight. He even took advantage of the terrain at Shuitou Lake to

The enemy was lured deep into the city, causing the Jin people to "move and ride four times, all trapped in the water, with no one able to escape", which made them "cowardly". Zhang Rong became a famous general because of the battle at Shuitou Lake, and the name of Shuotou Lake was changed to win.

lake.

The third person sitting on the right is about the same age as the person in the middle. He is also dressed as a scholar, but he is wearing a blue shirt. He is full of energy, sitting upright and thoughtful. Yantang still does not recognize him, although Chunmu has not met him.

There are many, but I know it is Ma Kuo. This man is familiar with the languages ​​​​of Liao, Xixia, Jin and other countries. Long before the Jingkang disaster, he followed his father Ma Zheng to make Jin. He has extensive knowledge and strong memory, has a far-sighted vision, and has a deep understanding of the enemy's situation.

He also possesses both civil and military skills, is witty and tactful, and is very capable in doing things. Marshal Han was chosen to handle the secret orders of the undercover spies he sent.

Marshal Han waited for the two of them to stand still, then slowly stood up and walked to Yantang, saying: "I want you to meet some great heroes today!"

Seeing that the man in the middle was still sleeping soundly, he led Yantang directly to Li Qiong and said: "This is General Li Qiong. When the Jin invaded the Song Dynasty, General Li was limited by the situation and had no choice but to follow Liu Yu in sending gold. For decades, He endured humiliation and humiliation, and did many things for the Song Dynasty both inside and outside the Jin Kingdom, especially when he saved the people of the city when Bozhou fell. This time we can make Xin Zan the county magistrate, relying on Duke Li." I didn’t introduce him to Yantang, I made it clear before entering the hall.

Li Qiong was a general of the Song Dynasty before the Jin Dynasty, but the prefect of Bozhou was an official of the Jin Dynasty, so Han Shizhong only called Li Qiong a general, not a prefect.

When the Jin Dynasty attacked Bozhou, they encountered the Song general Wei Jing who led his army and people to resist desperately, and when they fell, the Jin marshal Wanyan Zonghan (Nianhan) was furious and wanted to massacre the city. Li Qiong tried his best to plead for mercy, and the people in the city were spared, so they were very grateful. Hou Li Qiongjiu was the magistrate of Bozhou for a long time, and he was an honest official. At this time, Bozhou had been part of the Jin Kingdom for a long time, and the common people in Yantang knew that although Li Qiong was a traitorous general in the Song Dynasty, he had a very good official reputation and good reputation among the people. Now that we have learned that he is there Secretly contributing to the Song Dynasty, he felt even more admiration, so he bowed and saluted: "Hello, Mr. Li!" But he addressed him now, saying in his heart: "I didn't know how good you were as a general of the Song Dynasty, but the prefect of the Jin Kingdom did It’s not bad.”

Li Qiong sighed softly, clasped his fists and said, "Hello, Mr. Fan! Marshal Han will have a lot of trivial matters in the future, and it will be necessary to trouble Mr. Fan." Although Yantang does not work under Marshal Han, he is his niece-in-law. Seeing that Li Qiong is the guest, he is heartbroken. He was surprised and just said, "That's easy to say. It's easy to say. I will obey Marshal Han's orders."

Marshal Han led Yantang past the second person sitting on the right. Zhang Rong was a fellow student of Yantang, so he needed no introduction. He came directly to the scholar in blue shirt and said: "This is the manager of Ma Kuoma. He was born in Lintao, Gansu Province and has been a general for generations. Back then, He followed his father, Ma Zheng, Mr. Ma, to the Jin Dynasty. He once accompanied Wanyan Agu to hunt, and Wanyan Zonghan hunted. Wanyan Zonghan looked down on the people of the Central Plains on horseback and archery, but this brother Ma was able to show his proficiency with bows and horses. He was so powerful that he was truly a leader of the Song Dynasty. Show off your power. A few years ago, 100,000 people gathered in Wuma Mountain to fight against the Jin soldiers. The current emperor once appointed him as the general manager of the horse and infantry capital of the marshal's military and horse capital in Hewai. Unfortunately, the officials and soldiers of the Song Dynasty did not respond enough, so that the success failed. Manager Ma was the most He is well-informed and has personally seen the late Emperor Huizong, the current Emperor Jianyan, Wanyan Aguda and Wanyan Wu Qimai of the Jin Kingdom, Yelu Dashi of the Liao Kingdom, and the emperors and important figures of several countries. Brother Ma is both civil and military. , and can speak several languages, he is an extraordinary person in this world."

After hearing this, Yantang was greatly heartbroken. His martial arts skills were decent, and he could be considered to be somewhat proficient in literature. Marshal Han praised the man for being both civilized and martial arts, which was fine, but he could speak several languages, which he could not do in this life. He held his fists and raised his hands. : "Master Ma is so talented! He can speak several languages, but I can't even think of it in this lifetime."
