As soon as this order was issued, soldiers rushed forward quickly, but it was not the Japanese army, but the Wang family army.
I saw one member of the Wang family's army rushing out like lightning. Before he could see any action, everyone around Gao Yaofu had fallen to the ground, but Gao Yaofu himself already had a bright saber on his neck.
That was the sword of the Wang Family Army, held in Yue Fei's hand.
When the Japanese soldiers saw this, they froze in place and did not dare to move.
"Wang Zhi, you are brave!"
"You disobey the military orders, and if you commit the crime below, you will kidnap me and your command, and you will be punished according to the law!"
Gao Yaofu was still waiting to say something, but he felt a slight pain in his neck, and then liquid flowed down, and he suddenly did not dare to speak.
Wang Zhi swayed up to him with his hands behind his back, "I dare to ask the high commander, what does it mean to disobey military orders? Am I not standing here waiting for punishment? Isn't it twenty army sticks? I have received it. , hurry up and arrange for someone to execute it."
Gao Yaofu said with a sharp expression, "You...you ask them to let go of my command."
"Didn't I make it very clear to you just now? If you didn't understand, let me tell you again. I am the Japanese army and they are the Wang family army. How they act has anything to do with me?"
"you……"
Gao Yao's lungs ached, but he couldn't find any words to refute, because this guy had never gone overboard at all, and he had never commanded these so-called 'Wang's Army'. Even if he wanted to find fault, he had nowhere to say it.
"Okay! It's your first offense, so I'll let it go this time and won't do it again!"
After Gao Yaofu said this, he felt his neck relax, and the person behind him had left.
When he reached out to touch it, it was already bright red. Gao Yaofu was frightened in his heart. They really dared to kill me...
A subordinate brought a cloth belt, but Gao Yaofu pushed it away. He looked at a group of 30-year-old Wang Jiajun who looked like wolves and tigers with a gloomy expression. He considered it for a moment and could only say bitterly, "Send the order, Let’s go!”
Although he has five hundred Japanese soldiers, he knows that these veterans under his father will not fight for his second generation ancestor. But the thirty Japanese soldiers on the other side really dare to fight to the death to protect their master. .
He also has his own confidants in the Japanese army, but the face-slapping scene just now clearly proved the fact that all of his confidants can't even deal with a mediocre pawn under them.
He had no doubt that as long as he dared to attack Wang Zhi, these people would kill him alive.
"Brother Yue, I'm really convinced by you now. I was a little unconvinced when I saw Brother Zhi attaching so much importance to you, but now I'm really convinced. Just those few moves you just made were enough to kill me several times. .”
Wang Fei got on his horse and came close to Yue Fei, licking his face and saying, "We both fly, why can't I fly?"
Yue Fei smiled and said: "Brother Wang, there is no need to be humble. After all, I am two years older than you. We can learn from each other and improve each other when we have time in the future."
"OK!"
Wang Feixiao's eyes were squeezed into slits. The difference between him and Yue Fei was not "comparison". It was obvious that he wanted to teach him martial arts.
He could see that although Brother Zhi was also very powerful, all his strength was brute force and could not be learned by others. However, Yue Fei had real kung fu. He had swords, guns and sticks at his fingertips, and was proficient in all eighteen kinds of martial arts. With such a If there is a great master, if you don't follow and learn two moves, you will be punished by God.
The Peng Japanese Army was one of the four armies of the Forbidden Army and belonged to the Palace Front Division. It was an army mainly composed of mounted cavalry and no infantry, so they set off as fast as the wind.
It took only three days to pass Luoyang, Xijing, and three days to pass Fengxiang Mansion. There were no large cities on the rest of the way. It passed through Longzhou, Jingzhou, Weizhou... Along the way, there were supply stations, big and small officials, powerful and wealthy businessmen seeing off. Going west, Gao Yaofu became more and more frightened, because there were more and more prominent people coming to pick him up.
I am just a small commander of the Forbidden Army, and I am just passing by and not entering the city, so why do I need to be escorted by officials of all sizes.
Gao Yaofu smiled bitterly, of course he knew that these people were not here to pick him up, because he was nominally the supreme commander of this battalion of forbidden troops, so they were just being polite.
The main reason was still the child of the Wang family. He kept calling uncles and uncles all the way, and there was no city without relatives from his family.
And looking at the appearance of those big and small officials, powerful and wealthy businessmen, it seemed as if Wang Zhi was their uncle.
Now he finally understood why his father had warned him so much before leaving: Never let Wang Zhi die in his own hands.
This is not an ordinary military general's family, this is a hornet's nest.
In this way, after spending ten days, they finally arrived at their destination - Zhenrong Army.
This "Zhenrong Army" is not the name of an army unit, but the name of a local administrative unit, that is, a military town.
The administrative divisions of the Song Dynasty implemented a three-level system, the most basic of which is road-prefecture-county; nominally the highest level is road, and the lower level is prefecture. State-level units include prefecture, prefecture, military, and prison. Prefecture has the highest status, and prefecture has the highest status. In other words, the military and prisons are relatively low and usually located at the border.
For example, the Zhenrong Army is under the jurisdiction of Jingyuan Road. As the guardian, the highest officer of the military town is also called "Zhi Moujun", or "Zhijun" for short, and his deputy is called "Tongpan".
It is said that he is the deputy, but apart from being lower in rank, the actual general magistrate has the same power as the military commander. Who has the final say within a state depends on the actual authority.
The Japanese Army came to take over the Western Army's garrison in the northwest, and the garrison point assigned to Wang Zhi's Ninth Battalion was exactly this Suppression Army.
At this time, the officials of the Zhenrong Army were greeting them outside the city. This was a real welcome, not a false one on the way. After all, these five hundred cavalrymen were here to protect their comprehensive and important military force.
"uncle!"
Before Gao Yaofu could see clearly who the officials were who came out to greet him, Gao Yaofu heard the familiar shout behind him.
"Why is this guy's uncle again? How many uncles does this guy have!"
Gao Yaofu cursed secretly and looked very ugly.
A young general on a white horse rushed out from the Japanese-supporting army, ran to the officers of the Zhenrong Army, stopped in front of him, and gave a middle-aged official in the lead a bear hug.
This middle-aged official is the general judge of the Zhenrong Army, the eldest son of Lao Zhongjing Lue Xianggong Zhong Shidao, the biological brother of Wang Zhi's grandmother, and of course Wang Erlang's biological uncle, Zhong Hao.
"Good boy!"
Zhong Hao patted Wang Erlang on the back, looked up and down and sighed: "I haven't seen you in a few years, and we have grown so tall. Are your parents okay?"
"Everything is fine. Grandma often complains that my uncle won't go to Tokyo to see her."
"My nephew, it's not that my uncle doesn't want to visit her, but he really can't leave. When I have the chance, I will definitely go to Tokyo to see her."
"Come, let me introduce you..."
Zhong Hao stepped aside and introduced the officials around him to Wang Zhi. Only then did Wang Zhi realize that the generals here were not only Han generals, but also many generals.
After Zhong Hao's explanation, I found out that these were a few nomadic tribes attached to the Song Dynasty. They also had many armed forces and formed an offensive and defensive alliance with the Song Dynasty to jointly resist Xixia.
Of course, as an important military town in the country, the Zhenrong Army cannot only rely on the 500 cavalry and these soldiers who support the Japanese army to protect it. There are also tens of thousands of Xiang soldiers and rural soldiers.
The Xiang soldiers are a lower-level army of the Forbidden Army. They are a collection of local armies and miscellaneous troops. They also receive military pay. Their specific tasks are mostly to build cities, build roads, and transport, etc., while the Xiang soldiers are defensive troops formed by farmers on the border. They receive military pay, but are exempt from taxes. They are large in number and are an important defense force on the border.
There are no more imperial troops in the Zhenrong Army now. All the imperial troops have been mobilized north. With the current national strength of Xixia, it is unable to attack the Song Dynasty. It is a blessing for the Song Dynasty not to draw a knife to attack him. Therefore, the mission of coming here to support the Japanese army is very clear. , patrolling the border just in case.
As for Faxi, which Wang Erlang talked about every day, it was just a trick to trick someone into flying out of nowhere in the countryside.
There is also that "I will not destroy Xixia and vow not to return to the court", dream, what is a dream, can it be called a dream if it can be completed?
After Moufei followed the army into Zhenrong Army City, he understood a little bit. It looked like he was about to conquer the West. The civilians in the military households in the city lived and worked in peace and contentment. There were an endless stream of vendors coming and going on the streets. If you taste it carefully, there is a peaceful smell in the air. .
You call this Fashi?
He didn't know that after Song and Xia defeated Xixia in the battle of Hengshan four years ago, Xixia, which lost the Hengshan barrier and a large area of land, was no longer able to fight and negotiated peace with the Song Dynasty and surrendered, so the Song-Xia border had not been touched in the past four years. Passed the sword.
Yue Fei did not attend the reception banquet. He was an eyesore in such an occasion because he did not drink, so he consciously left after dealing with a few people casually, sitting on a huge rock outside the city and looking to the west.
That's the direction of Xixia.
"What is Pengju thinking about?"
Yue Fei turned to look at the young man who abducted him. He was not angry, but he did not hide his thoughts, "I am thinking about when I can conquer the West."
"Forehead……"
Wang Erlang scratched his head. He always did what he thought and rarely thought about the aftermath.
"There will be opportunities in the future. Come on, follow me to a place."
Wang Erlang took him, took the two rich brothers, carried two jars of wine and rode away on horseback.
After asking all the way, the group of four people passed through Liupan Mountain, walked among the mountain passages, and finally arrived at a small valley with mountains and water.
"General, where is this?"
Yue Fei's name for Wang Zhi returned to the way it was when they first met. Not only Yue Fei, but also all the Wang family soldiers, including the two Fugui brothers, also called him this way.
In the army, titles such as Erlang, Hall Master, Brother Wang, Brother Zhi, etc. are not popular, but they cannot be called "commanders" because they do not belong to the Japanese army, and they also show that their attitude is not controlled by the Japanese army, so they can only be called this one. Honorific title for military generals.
"This is a good river."
"The place where the souls of tens of thousands of soldiers of the Song Dynasty are buried."
Wang Zhi looked at this small valley with green water, green mountains, and shady vegetation. He let out a long sigh, got off his horse, and added: "It is also the place where my great-grandfather's bones are buried."
After Wang Zhi finished speaking, he took a jar of wine from Wang Fu's hand, opened the lid, and sprinkled it to the ground.
"When I came here, my father told me that my great-grandfather would have had a few sips when he was still alive. He asked me not to forget to bring him some when I come here."
"The Song Dynasty was founded for more than a hundred years and fought with Xixia for more than a hundred years. In the past few years, if the Song Dynasty had not gathered strength to join forces with the Jin Dynasty and conquer the Liao Dynasty, this barbaric country would have been uprooted long ago."
"When we come to the northwest, we won't just settle down like that. We just have to wait."
