Moqi Mountain in Juzhou.
This big mountain faces the sea to the east and is the remnant of Yishan Mountain, a beautiful place.
The so-called "moqi" is originally a language commonly used by people in the Song Dynasty in the Southern Dynasties. It is said that when the emperor of the Southern Dynasties came to Baojin Tower to watch a play, one person would first ride out the horse with nothing, which is called leading the horse, and the next person would grind the flag and ride the horse, which is called clearing the flag. This Moqi, which means waving a flag, corresponds to the name of Leigu Mountain in the north and has its own majesty.
The terrain in Moqi Mountain is complex. It is said to have 72 Yingchou Streams, 81 Qingtian Peaks, as well as cliffs thousands of feet high and cliffs tens of thousands of feet high. Yang An'er garrisoned here, and it was like living in the Jincheng Tangchi. Although he could directly mobilize only a few thousand troops nearby, even if tens of thousands of people surrounded him outside, they would be unable to do anything to him.
Yang An'er rebelled during the Taihe period and managed this mountain for a long time. Later, he was recruited as the commander-in-chief and led his army northward. This place was once abandoned.
But in recent months, Yang An'er has led people to rebuild the place. There are military villages, residential buildings, fields and water sources in the mountains, as well as fortresses and open areas for military training and martial arts training.
On this day, as soon as Yang Miaozhen walked out of the room, he heard the cheers coming one after another in the school grounds across the wall. There was also smoke and dust rising over the courtyard wall, still choking people.
She frowned and called the maid from home: "Go and see who is causing trouble there!"
The maid replied directly: "It's Marshal Yang!"
"He can actually think of practicing martial arts?"
"I heard that Marshal Liu, the Second Patriarch of Mount Tai, could arrive at Moqi Mountain this afternoon with his subordinates. So Marshal Yang summoned heroes from Juzhou, Yizhou, Mizhou, and Haizhou early in the morning to race horses at the school ground to discuss how to welcome them. "
"I just want to give Liu Erzu a show of strength and show off his own style."
Yang Miaozhen laughed, picked up the riding whip and walked out of the courtyard gate. Yang Miaozhen is much more enthusiastic about martial arts than ordinary men, so her own courtyard is next to the school grounds. There is also a stable outside the courtyard with several horses. After she practiced martial arts, she often rode her horse down the mountain and galloped and hunted in the wilderness.
On that day, Yang An'er brought a small number of close followers to Laizhou to watch the battle. Yang Miaozhen was dissatisfied with Yang An'er's move to instigate Li Quan to provide a way for the Mongolian army, and had a big quarrel with his brother. To this day, the two of them don't speak to each other and rarely see each other.
Now that Yang An'er has occupied the school grounds, Yang Miaozhen doesn't want to disturb her. She directly took the horse and passed by the school gate, preparing to go out to relax.
Riding his horse to the front of the school ground, he saw Yang An'er riding a fierce horse, carrying a long spear, and dancing with great power. Yang You and a few slaves brought the human-shaped wooden targets and placed them on the edge of the horse track. Yang An'er galloped past on horseback. With a flick of his wrist, a circle of light seemed to bloom on the spear, and all the human-shaped wooden targets fell to the ground.
Everyone praised again and again.
Although Yang Miaozhen was dissatisfied with his brother, he was really fond of martial arts, and his hands itched when he saw this.
She reined in her horse and hesitated whether to try it too.
When Yang An'er saw his sister, he pressed his spear across the saddle and said to everyone with great satisfaction: "Haha, my sister-in-law is here too. I am showing off my shame!"
Although Yang Miaozhen is the daughter of a boudoir, she can be said to be the guarantee of Yang An'er's personal force. Whenever she goes into battle, she can defeat powerful enemies.
Immediately, several people came over and saluted Yang Miaozhen: "I have seen the fourth lady!"
Yang Miaozhen's temperament is not arrogant. She forced a smile and dismounted her horse to return the greetings.
Hearing Yang An'er continue: "My pear blossom spear was passed down by a stranger to my roommate when she was young, and she passed it on to me. Haha, during the Taihe period, I first launched an army and fought in Jinan and Binzhou. With this marksmanship, I fought against the local heroes Huang Ding and Yin Chang, and defeated them in one fell swoop!"
"Huang Ding, Yin Chang?" Some people think these two names are familiar.
The lame and yellow-bearded veteran Li Siwen stroked his beard and said with a smile: "It's Huang Ding from the water village of Licheng, Jinan, and Yin Chang from the Binzhou Army. These two people have high positions in the court, but they are actually close friends of my marshal. .”
Huang Ding and Yin Chang were both powerful factions in Shandong. Huang Ding relied on the water stronghold. When the Mongolian army came, they could not do anything to defeat him. Yinchang, under the jurisdiction of the Binzhou Army, was sitting at the mouth of the Beiqing River.
Over the years, hundreds of thousands of people fled from the imperial rule, leaving the land where they were born and raised, and became aliens beyond the control of the imperial court. Among them, most of those who fled deep into the mountains and ravines found their way into various mountain villages and joined forces with their similarly poor companions, becoming thorns in the side of the imperial court and unswerving rebels.
Most of those who fled to the seaside and lakes belonged to the powerful people who were originally there. The common people used to be oppressed by the imperial court, but now there are people at the top, and the methods may be looser, but there are also people who are oppressing as harshly as the imperial court, so you can't say for sure.
After Yang An'er returned to Shandong, he tried to win over several powerful people, such as Geng Ge, who was apparently the governor of Dengzhou, Shi Poli, who responded to all requests in Ninghai Prefecture, and Fang Guosan, the big smuggler leader in Mizhou. identity of. The people Guo Ning eliminated in Laizhou, such as Xu Ruxian and Zhang Ruji, were also average.
Someone immediately asked in shock: "Could it be said that Huang Ding and Yin Chang have already..."
At this moment, Yang An'er and several wealthy people rode around the school grounds and went far away.
Li Siwen looked up to the sky and laughed: "If you are not 100% sure, how can you say this? Everyone, Huang Ding is in Jinan, and he can contain the Tianping Army Jiedushi Huang Slap Wudian at any time; and Yin Chang can do it if he makes a little move. Let Wanyan Salara, the commander of the Shandong Army, not be able to advance or retreat! To be honest with you, even Li Tiejian's army was planned by my marshal. This time our army will not move, otherwise the situation will change! There will be no resistance in Shandong. The man of the hand!”
Several village owners said: "The marshal is really far-sighted!"
After a few compliments, someone suddenly asked: "Where is Ding Haijun Guo Ning?"
Everyone's voices suddenly stopped.
The speaker continued: "Wanyan Sala, Huang Gaowudian and others, with tens of thousands of troops at every turn, looked majestic, but when the Mongolian army came, these two people huddled in the city, not even daring to fart. I Look, they are all paper lanterns, gods and ghosts tied with grass. They look scary, but in fact they can only scare the birds in the field."
Everyone nodded.
"Another example is Ninghai Prefecture Wugu Lun Rongzu, Juzhou Hengsi, Mizhou Yilagu and Nie, etc. They are either governors, magistrates, or local guards against thousands of households, not to mention. We are too lazy to talk to each other on weekdays. They care about each other, and if they really want to be cruel, killing them would be like killing a chicken."
Everyone continued to nod.
"But this Guo Ning is the only one..." The speaker looked around at his companions: "He is an evil tiger who can defeat the Mongolian army head-on! Who dares to defeat him?"
Everyone was silent.
To say that Guo Ning's military strength is actually not much. Many of the people present were spies. They knew that the troops Guo Ning brought to Shandong only had a total of 6,000 infantry and cavalry. Later, the army was greatly expanded, and the number was only 10,000 at most.
Just the heroes Yang An'er gathered in the school grounds at this moment, and each of them went back to their hometown to call for help, could bring out a huge force of more than 100,000 people in one breath. They broke through a few more cities and captured the residents. It would not be difficult to expand their troops to 200,000. With the troops of Liu Erzu and Li Quan, it would have to be doubled.
The power of hundreds of thousands of people, in the history books, is only available to the emperors who established the foundation. Even if they take ten thousand steps back, Red Eyebrow, Bronze Horse, Yellow Turban, and Huang Chao will at least have a good time. Therefore, no one doubts that the power of Yang An'er, Liu Erzu and Li Quan is enough to wipe out the entire Shandong and establish great achievements. No one will take the soldiers and horses of the imperial court seriously.
The overall situation is like this, but when it comes to specific enemies...
What everyone hates the most is Guo Ning, an elite soldier who is entrenched in one place. This kind of hard nut doesn't necessarily mean it can't be gnawed, but no one is willing to gnaw it.
Since there is a rebellion, everyone recruits troops and expands their power. Whoever has more soldiers and horses will have a higher status. Whoever has fewer soldiers and horses will have no one to criticize him no matter how loud his voice is. If someone's turn is to deal with Guo Ning and he loses his troops and generals in a battle, who will suffer the loss? Do you still expect others to take out some of the money and make it up to you?
impossible.
Then comes the problem. In the future, Marshal Yang, Liu Erzu, and Li Quan will each claim the title of emperor and king, and enjoy glory and wealth. But I fought a tough battle and have been unable to recover since then. I can’t get any benefits?
That won't work.
Everyone present is either a green forest hero or a local strongman. To be able to achieve this level, there is a basic principle, that is, they must not be used as knives by others, let alone use the flesh and blood of their own family to exchange for the prosperity and wealth of others.
Seeing that no one answered, the speaker became a little anxious and raised his voice: "Is it possible that Marshal Yang has counted them all and only missed Guo Ning? That can't be possible! We have to do something big, so we can't make such a big omission. !”
While they were shouting, Yang An'er and several big bosses came back from the opposite side of the school ground.
Yang An'er didn't really hear it, she just laughed and asked: "What omission? Where did the omission come from?"
When the man was about to say more, the horn sounded repeatedly at the foot of the mountain, and the rich sound echoed back and forth in the mountain, like a continuous wave.
Yang An'er looked solemn and waved her hand: "Second Ancestor Liu came so quickly! Everyone, follow me to line up the guard of honor and go down the mountain to greet him!"
"Guard of honor? What kind of guard of honor?" someone asked.
Before he finished speaking, Li Siwen raised his hand to make a gesture.
Inside and outside the school grounds, hundreds of uniformed soldiers appeared with swords, guns, axes and axes. Surrounded by them, dozens of flags of various colors were raised in unison.
The tallest yellow flag bears the words "Shandong Road Commander-in-Chief Yang" written in nine characters. The remaining flags are either called marshals, generals, commanders, or captains, which clearly determine the official positions of each person.
Regarding these positions, everyone knows about them in advance, and some people don’t know about them. But looking up at this time, everyone felt that the majesty was unusual and they were all delighted.
Isn't that the reason for starting a rebellion?
