Yang Xiong and Shi Ping are naturally not the kind of people who show no loyalty to Qin, Mu and Chu, so why would they abandon their brotherly loyalty in Heifeng Mountain and join Yang Peng? It turns out that during their time in Black Wind Mountain, although Black Panther and others claimed to be doing justice for heaven, what they committed was burning, killing, looting and committing all kinds of evil, which was no different from ordinary bandits. What made them even more intolerable was Wang Dayong and others. In Yang Xiong Shiping's view, these people were not human beings at all, but beasts. Yang Xiong Shiping couldn't help but want to kill Wang Dayong several times. Yang Xiong and Shi Pingyou admired Yang Peng's resourcefulness and martial arts, so they made up their minds to leave Heifeng Mountain and join Yang Peng.
Last night, after the two met Yang Peng, they informed the Black Wind Mountain bandit army of the location where their grain and grass were stored. Yang Peng was naturally overjoyed when he got this information, and immediately formulated a battle plan to defend Gaotang Prefecture and simultaneously attack Zhangshu Village. The whole plan went very smoothly, except that the battle to defend the city on Chen Jie's side was a bit thrilling. Several people came to the city gate tower and asked the soldiers to bring water and food. They ate and drank while talking. "Brother, although the Black Wind Mountain bandit army's food and grass were burned, according to common sense they should retreat, but we must not take it lightly!" Yang Guihua reminded.
Yang Peng nodded and thought: "Tao Ran may do unexpected things." He glanced at everyone and said, "Tonight, let's all stay awake and take turns taking turns to make sure nothing goes wrong!" Everyone clasped their fists and agreed. . The atmosphere in the Black Wind Mountain bandit army's tent was very depressing.
Zheng Tianshou said angrily: "I didn't expect Yang Peng to be so insidious and secretly burned our food and grass!" Black Dragon sighed: "This Lord Yang's military use is like the wind, unpredictable!" Black Panther shouted in a deep voice: " Bring me the little bosses who are guarding the food and grass!"
There was a response from outside the big tent, and then the three little bosses, whose beards and hair were singed, their clothes were torn, and there were burn marks on their faces, were brought in. They all looked trembling. The Black Panther asked with a stern face: "Only the leaders and a few other people know about the place where grain and grass are stored. How does Yang Peng know this place?" The little leader in the middle hurriedly clasped his fists and said: "If we turn around to collect it, we will make a surprise attack on Yang Peng." When we were in Zhangshu Village, the villain saw, saw..." The villain looked a little hesitant.
"What did you see? Tell me quickly!" "I think I saw leader Yang Xiong leading the way for Yang Peng and the others!"
Black Panther and others were shocked. Black Panther hurriedly glanced at the big tent, and sure enough, Yang Xiong was missing. "Where is Yang Xiong? Where has Yang Xiong gone?" Heilong frowned and said, "Now that I think about it, it seems that Yang Xiong has not been seen since this morning! Not only Yang Xiong, but also Shi Ping It’s gone too!” Tao Ran said anxiously: “Go and have a look at their tent!” Immediately, several leaders rushed out of the tent. After a while, several leaders came back. One of them clasped his fists and said urgently: "Brother, there is no one in Yang Xiong's tent, and his weapons and baggage are all gone!" Another person said: "There is no one in Shi Ping's tent, and the weapons and weapons are gone." All the baggage is gone!”
Zheng Tianhu yelled angrily: "Don't think about it, the two of them must have defected to Yang Peng! These two are taking advantage of everything!" There was a lot of noise in the big tent, everyone was cursing Yang Xiong and Shi Ping viciously. The black panther had a sullen face and frowned. Black Dragon shouted: "Break Gaotangzhou and kill these two traitors!" The leaders also shouted.
Black Panther was a little undecided and looked at Tao Ran. Tao Ran frowned and said: "The food and grass are burned and the morale of the army is shaken. It is best to retreat to the mountain as soon as possible. If our opponent is not Yang Peng, we can still give it a try, but for Yang Peng, the result of a desperate move may not be what we want. !”
Black Panther was convinced. Black Dragon asked angrily: "Is this the end of it?" Tao Ran said: "There are many opportunities for revenge, there is no need to take revenge now!" Then he raised his voice: "Now that the food and grass are burned, the morale of the army is turbulent. If we don't return to the mountain as soon as possible, , I'm afraid that Yang Peng will take advantage of him! Brothers should know very well what a fierce and cunning character this Yang Peng is!" The leaders did not speak, and they all looked very depressed.
In the early morning of the next day, at dawn, Yang Peng stood on the city wall and looked at the Black Wind Mountain bandit army camp outside the city. At this moment, the Black Wind Bandit Army's barracks looked dilapidated and dilapidated. It was quiet without the previous hustle and bustle. A secret guard came flying from the direction of the Black Wind Mountain bandit army camp. He ran into the city and soon appeared behind Yang Peng. "Master, the Black Wind Mountain bandit army has evacuated last night, and now the Black Wind Mountain bandit army is thirty miles away!"
Yang Peng smiled slightly. Returning to the post house, I saw Chai Yongqi, Chai Guanjia and Chai Yonghui. Since Ding Wei had already run away with his family, Yang Peng simply took Chai Yongqi and Butler Chai out, and no one dared to stop them. But this matter is far from over, there is still much to do. Chai Yonghui has put on women's clothes and is as beautiful as ever. Perhaps because of that thrilling experience, she looks more mature than before.
Chai Yongqi, Chai Guanjia and Chai Yonghui saw Yang Peng coming in and hurriedly greeted him. Butler Chai asked anxiously: "Sir, I wonder if the Black Wind Mountain bandit army can break in?"
Yang Peng chuckled, "There are some things you don't know yet. Yesterday, I led people to burn the food and grass of the Black Wind Mountain bandit army, and the Black Wind Mountain bandit army evacuated overnight. Now the crisis has been lifted."
The three of them were greatly surprised. They did not expect that Gaotang Prefecture was still on the verge of collapse during the day yesterday, but today the Black Wind Mountain Bandit Army was forced to retreat! ? I can't help but feel that the Cangzhou prefect in front of me is really unpredictable! Butler Chai sighed with emotion: "Master Yang is really wise and brave! I didn't expect such a terrible banditry to be eliminated in a flash!" Chai Yongqi looked thoughtful. It seemed that he was still thinking about the Black Wind Bandits. Whether the army is a martyr or a bandit; Chai Yonghui frowned and stared at Yang Peng, wondering what she was thinking?
Yang Peng smiled and said: "The reason why I was able to win was thanks to the two new good brothers I met! Without them, I wouldn't have been able to lock the location of the Black Wind Bandits' army's food and fodder, and I wouldn't have been able to turn the tide of the war in one fell swoop! "The three of them showed curiosity, and Chai Yongqi asked hurriedly: "Brother Yang, who have made two new friends? Can I meet them?"
Just then, footsteps came from the door. Yang Peng turned around and looked around. It was Yang Xiong and Shi Ping who came in. It really said that Cao Cao and Cao Cao were here! Yang Peng smiled and said, "It's the two of them." Chai Yongqi quickly looked at the two of them, but he didn't recognize them. Yang Xiong and Shi Ping came to Yang Peng, cupped their fists and said, "Brother!"
Yang Peng pointed at Chai Yongqi and introduced the two of them: "This is Chai Yongqi and Chai Daguan from Qingzhou!" The two people's eyes lit up and they paid their respects. Yang Peng pointed at the two of them and introduced Chai Yongqi and others: "They are my new good brothers, Yang Xiong, and this is Shi Ping!"
Chai Yongqi's eyes widened and he exclaimed: "You, didn't you go to Heifeng Mountain?" Yang Xiong sighed, "The people in Heifeng Mountain disappointed us so much, so we two brothers left them!" Chai Yongqi was very Surprised and unbelievable, "Why is this?"
Shi Ping said: "Although the people on Black Wind Mountain say they are doing justice for heaven, they are still doing the business of killing people, setting fires and robbing homes! Especially Wang Dayong and others, among the bandits, they can only be regarded as beasts! To be honest, among the bandits, When we were on Black Wind Mountain, we couldn't help but want to kill Wang Dayong several times! Brother Yang Xiong and I really didn't want to be with these people, so we took this opportunity to defect to Brother Yang, willing to follow Brother Yang and go to the water and the fire. Don’t give up!”
Butler Chai said with emotion: "Okay, okay! You two know how to abandon the dark and turn to the light, you are indeed a real hero!" Chai Yongqi frowned and said nothing. The words of Yang Xiong and Shi Ping must have severely impacted his inherent concepts. A secret guard rushed in, clasped his fists and reported: "Master, General Gao has led an army of two thousand horses from Qingzhou to enter the city!"
Yang Peng said in surprise: "You came so fast!" Before he finished speaking, a rough voice came from the door: "Brother, big brother!..." Everyone looked towards the door and saw a man with a majestic physique and figure. The armored general with a tiger-like momentum led a dozen tough soldiers in quickly from the gate. Yang Peng couldn't help but feel happy and hurriedly greeted him. When the general came to Yang Peng, he bowed his head and said: "Little brother pays homage to big brother!"
Yang Peng helped Gao Ming up and patted his shoulder, "It was a hard journey!" Gao Mingming smiled and said, "It's not hard! I was just running away!" Everyone couldn't help laughing when they heard what he said was interesting. Then Yang Peng introduced Gao Ming to everyone, and then introduced everyone to Gao Ming. Both parties met with each other. Gao Ming asked Chen Xiao impatiently: "Brother, I heard that the Black Wind Mountain bandits were attacking Gaotang Prefecture, but why didn't you see any movement?" Yang Peng smiled and said, "You are late! They burned their food and grass yesterday. They retreated in the evening!" Gao Ming was very depressed and said angrily: "I thought we could have a good battle, but I didn't expect them to be so careless and have already left! If I had known this, I should have been faster!"
Yang Peng laughed and said: "We are so far apart, you arrived in a few days, which is fast enough! I think those two thousand horse troops were exhausted by you, right?" Gao Ming laughed and said: "Let the boys hone their skills. , it’s beneficial!” Yang Peng smiled and asked thoughtfully: “Besides yours, are there any other troops coming?”
"Cao Yong is also heading here with five thousand infantry. It is estimated that it will take at least five or six days to arrive." Yang Peng ordered: "Send someone to intercept them immediately and tell them that the matter here has been resolved. Don't Come here and ask them to return to Qingzhou." Gao Ming immediately ordered a soldier beside him, and the soldier clasped his fists in agreement and ran down.
A group of people walked into the hall and sat down. Yang Peng said: "The matter here has been resolved, we should go back." He glanced at Butler Chai, "I believe that after what happened this time, Ding Wei will not dare to embarrass you again!" Butler Chai stood up and said gratefully: "It's all thanks to Master Yang!"
"Uncle Chai doesn't have to be like this, otherwise I wouldn't even dare to see Uncle Chai!" Everyone laughed, and Butler Chai sat back in his seat. Yang Peng looked at Chai Yongqi and Chai Yonghui, "What are your plans?" Chai Yongqi said, "My little sister and I just discussed it, and we want to follow Brother Yang to Tianjing New City to have a look, but I don't know if it's too much. Are you bothering me?" Yang Peng said with a smile: "What's the trouble? I'm very happy that you are willing to be a guest at my place!" Chai Yongqi and Chai Yonghui couldn't help but smile with joy.
As night fell, Yang Peng stood alone by the small pond in the post house, staring at the stars and moon in the sky in a daze. Chai Yonghui saw Yang Peng standing under the moon from a distance and was very curious. He walked over with gentle steps. "Hey...!" Chai Yonghui called from behind Chen Xiao. Yang Peng recovered his thoughts and turned around. Seeing Chai Yonghui, he smiled and asked, "Why haven't you slept yet? You have to get up early tomorrow!"
Chai Yonghui smoothed his hair from his temples, "Aren't you asleep too?" Yang Peng smiled and sat down on the big bluestone. Chai Yonghui glanced at Yang Peng, "Were you thinking about something just now?" Yang Peng nodded. "What are you thinking about?" Yang Peng glanced at Chai Yonghui and said jokingly: "I'm thinking about my wife!" Chai Yonghui looked confused, "What wife? Who is your wife?" Yang Peng uh, haha Smiling, "That's my wife! Oh, I've been away from Cangzhou for so long, I miss her so much!"
Chai Yonghui frowned slightly, "As a prefect of a state and a hero with outstanding reputation, how can you indulge in the affair of your children?" Yang Peng said with a smile: "If possible, I would like to be drunk in the gentle countryside all day long. Ignore those annoying things. By the way, I never wanted to be a hero! I'm not a hero either!"
Chai Yonghui frowned and was silent for a moment, then glanced at Yang Peng, "I don't want to talk about this anymore." After a pause, "Let's talk about the general trend of the world." Yang Peng said with a smile: "I'm surprised. You are a girl, and you are such a beautiful girl, why do you do all these messy things all day long? I advise you to find a good husband and be a good wife wholeheartedly!" Chai Yonghui said angrily: " Can't a woman do great things? Can a woman only support her husband and raise children?" Yang Peng was a little surprised, "Your idea is quite advanced!" Chai Yonghui snorted, "Okay, don't say that. That’s it!” After a pause, he looked at Yang Peng and said, “Do you really want to be loyal to Zhao Song with all your heart? A wise and courageous person like you should have greater ambitions!”
Yang Peng asked with a smile: "What greater ambition should I have?" Chai Yonghui narrowed his eyes and said in a tone that was like a banshee seducing men: "Zhao Song has no way, the people are in dire straits, and many heroes from all over the world have risen up! This This is a good opportunity to create a new dynasty. How can heroes miss it? Brother Yang, you are resourceful and have unparalleled martial arts. If you can rise up, you will definitely be able to sweep the world and achieve imperial hegemony! Only in this way can you live up to your status as a great man! Why do you need to be Zhao Song’s slave?”
Yang Peng pondered. Chai Yonghui stared at Yang Peng, his beautiful eyes full of hope. Yang Peng raised his head and looked at Chai Yonghui. Chai Yonghui thought he had decided and looked very excited. Yang Peng said seriously: "I think I should still be loyal to the Song Dynasty!" Chai Yonghui's expression was as if he was about to eat a delicious delicacy but swallowed a mouthful of flies. He said angrily: "Why are you such a useless man?"
Yang Peng laughed and said: "If this is called worthless, then it means worthless!" Chai Yonghui snorted angrily, turned around and walked away, leaving only a wisp of elegant fragrance. Yang Peng took a deep breath, intoxicated, and then shook his head and sighed: "How can you rebel, this beautiful lady? Haha."
Early the next morning, Yang Peng and others were ready to leave. Chen Jie looked back and said strangely: "Aren't the Chai brothers and sisters going to leave with us? Why are there no people there?" Yang Peng thought of what happened last night and said with a smile: "They probably won't come, let's go. "So everyone set off. At this moment, Chai Yongqi and Chai Yonghui ran out of the post house. Chai Yonghui, dressed in men's clothing, stared at Yang Peng and asked angrily: "Didn't we agree yesterday? Why didn't you wait for us?" Yang Peng said with a smile. : "I thought you were still angry because of what happened last night!" "Huh! I'm not that stingy!" After saying that, he turned over and rode on a war horse brought by Hidden Kill, and Chai Jin rode on it. Another horse.
Yang Peng smiled and said loudly: "Let's go." The group set off. Gao Ming asked Shi Jin in a low voice: "What happened last night?" Chen Jie said with a bad smile: "A man and a woman, in the middle of the night, what do you think could happen?" Gao Ming suddenly understood and burst into laughter. Chai Yonghui heard what the two said, and asked with a red face: "What are you two talking about?" Chen Jie turned around and smiled: "This kind of thing is not easy to talk about! We understand each other tacitly!" Gao Ming on the side smiled and nodded in agreement. : "Yes, yes! It's tacit, tacit!"
Chai Yonghui was extremely angry and ashamed. Chai Yongqi urged his horse to come to Chai Yunmiao and asked in a low voice: "Sister, did you really have an affair with Brother Yang last night?..." Chai Yonghui shouted angrily with red cheeks: "Brother!... "Chai Yongqi quickly apologized and said: "Okay, okay, I won't ask anymore!" Then he muttered: "It's good for my sister to marry Brother Yang!" Chai Yonghui was speechless when he heard his brother's mutterings. Suddenly I heard a chuckle, and I immediately looked over and saw Yang Peng riding a horse in front of me on the left. Anger rushed out for no reason, and he asked angrily: "Why are you laughing?"
Yang Peng looked around blankly, then pointed to his nose and asked Chai Yonghui, "Miss, are you talking about me?" Chai Yonghui was furious and said angrily: "Of course it's you! What were you laughing at just now?" Yang Peng He said seriously: "You must have heard wrong, I didn't laugh just now!" Then he raised his voice and asked: "Brothers, did you hear any laughter just now?" "No!" Everyone answered with a smile. Yang Peng smiled and said to Chai Yonghui: "Look, most of you didn't hear the laughter. I think it must be your illusion."
Chai Yonghui stared at Yang Peng angrily for a while, then suddenly turned away and stopped talking to him.
Chai Yongqi reminded in a low voice: "Sister, a wife must be gentle! Don't be unruly, otherwise your husband will not like it!" Chai Yonghui blushed and said in annoyance: "Brother, who wants to be his wife?" "Okay, okay, brother, stop talking, stop talking!" Chai Yonghui saw Yang Pengzheng and Chen Jie Gaoming joking and couldn't hear clearly what they were talking about, so she subconsciously felt that they were laughing at her, and she couldn't help but go crazy.
Master Pang was furious when he saw Ding Wei and his wife standing in front of him in a state of embarrassment. He said angrily: "You are really capable! I recommended you to be the magistrate of Gaotang Prefecture in front of His Majesty. I originally hoped that you would give me You have a long face, you'd better dig out such a big trap for me!"
Ding Wei hurriedly said: "Master, you can't blame me for this. It was the Chai family who bullied others too much, so Yin Peng did it!" Mrs. Ding Wei on the side quickly agreed: "Yes, yes! If it weren't for the Chai family, It's so arrogant, how could Yin Peng take action?" Then he cried: "Poor brother of mine, he was beaten to death by those villains!"
"Shut up!" Master Pang shouted angrily. Mrs. Dingwei was startled, her crying suddenly stopped, and there were no tears on her face at all. Master Pang looked at Ding Wei and asked, "The Black Wind Mountain bandits attacked Gaotang Prefecture. How is the situation?" Ding Wei and his wife had already ran out. How could they know what was going on? Ding Wei took it for granted and said: "The city was captured by the Black Wind Mountain bandits. How miserable! It was all the fault of Yang Peng, the magistrate of Cangzhou, otherwise Gaotang Prefecture would not have fallen! As for Chen Xiao, he doesn't know whether he is dead now. It’s alive!”
Master Pang was so angry that he pointed at Ding Wei with his finger and gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, you dare to be dishonest in front of me!" Ding Wei was stunned and said quickly: "Everything I said is true!" Master Pang caught him The official document that had been added to the book hit Ding Wei in the face and shouted: "Read it for yourself!"
Ding Wei quickly picked up the official document, opened it, and read it over. There was a look of surprise on his face, and he said at a loss: "This, this,..." Master Pang snorted coldly, "You are so smart! This official document was sent to the Privy Council a few days ago! His Majesty greatly praised Yang Peng and intended to appoint him. With the heavy responsibility. Thanks to Yang Peng for explaining and interceding for you in the official document, otherwise, your head would not be saved! It’s ridiculous that you, the prefect of Gaotang Prefecture, don’t even know what is happening in this prefecture, and you still want to Pass the responsibility to Yang Peng! What do you want me to say about you?"
Ding Wei asked in a panic: "Your Majesty, what is your Majesty going to do with me?" Taishi Pang said: "Since Yang Peng and the Eighth Prince did not raise any objections on this matter, and I interceded in front of Your Majesty, Your Majesty did not I will not hold you accountable for leaving your post without permission, so I will transfer you to the prefect of Yuanzhou on Qingfeng Road."
Ding Wei exclaimed, "That's a small, remote state!" Master Pang scolded angrily, "You ungrateful bastard! You've committed such a big thing, aren't you satisfied that you can still retain the position of magistrate? "Ding Weinuo did not dare to say anything more.
During the morning court time the next day, Taishi Pang, who was dressed in court uniform, met the Eighth Prince, who was also dressed in court uniform, at the gate of the palace. Grand Master Pang hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "I have met the Eighth Prince!" The Eighth Prince quickly returned the salute: "Grand Master, you are so polite!" The two of them walked into the palace gate hand in hand and walked towards the majestic palace in front. The Eighth Prince smiled and said: "I asked the Taiwei to support what I mentioned to the Taiwei yesterday!" Taishi Pang quickly said: "My younger brother Dingwei owes a lot to the Eighth Prince for protecting me. How dare I not repay the favor?" The Eighth Prince smiled slightly and said, Said: "Don't talk about repayment, we should take care of each other!" "Yes, yes, what the Eighth Prince said is absolutely true!"
What happened after all, let’s see what happens next.
