Tong Guan's army entered the city, determined to wipe out the main force of Fang La's army, and then attack Bangyuan Cave to establish a breaking bamboo force. Therefore, he was afraid that Fang Qifu would leave, and hurriedly urged his troops to pursue him.
However, the battle situation was changing rapidly. How could he expect that Cao Cao and other troops would come to rescue him? Furthermore, Fang Jie led three thousand Imperial Guard troops to fight against Tong Guan in person, becoming the queen of everyone.
Most of the imperial troops under Fang La's command were strong men from around Qingxi County. In his early years, Fang La deceived the people into "eating vegetables and becoming devils". These people were the first elders to join. They believed deeply in the theory of "the birth of Maitreya and the birth of King Ming" and dared to fight in battle. Fighting to the death, they are the most powerful troops under Fang La's command.
Two tiger generals, Wang Zhen and Wang De, clashed in front and bumped into Fang Jie and others. Both sides were speechless and directly launched their troops to attack and kill. As soon as they clashed, they could see that these thousands of people were very different from those previously commanded by Fang Qifu. In the same way, everyone dared to die and rushed to kill with shouts. The officers and soldiers were caught off guard and were killed by others until they retreated.
Seeing that his offensive was blocked, Liu Yanqing hurriedly mobilized hundreds of cavalry to make a detour and attack from the side, hoping to cut off the enemy's troops from the waist.
Fang Jie saw that the horse was charging out, and a Fangtian painted halberd appeared and disappeared, stabbing more than ten people and knocking them off the horse. The cavalry who were blocking it with their own strength could not move forward.
Liu Yanqing personally came to fight with a gun, but his arm was injured and he had little strength. After a few seconds, his tactics were messed up and he was in danger frequently. He was so frightened that he shouted: "Where is my son in this world? Come and save me!"
Liu Guangshi originally stood far away because he was afraid of being targeted by enemy generals. Unexpectedly, disaster fell from the sky. His own father rushed up to him, but he called for help by name. In full view of everyone, if he pretended not to hear, he would never act like a good person in the future. ?
I had no choice but to bring up my life-long bloody courage, bite the roots of my teeth, and shout: "Hey! The thief will stop, don't be rampant, don't, don't hurt my father!"
Poor! This voice was shrill and high-pitched, full of tears.
General Liu waved his spear and rode straight forward, hoping to fight Fang Jie with his old father.
Unexpectedly, when Fang Jie was two feet away, Fang Jie suddenly turned his head and glared angrily. Liu Guangshi saw that he had a fierce look on his face, as if he wanted to eat someone. The courage he had so easily raised disappeared in an instant. He suddenly pulled the reins, and the horse was caught off guard. Stand up and hiss.
Fang Jie felt happy, and the horse suddenly jumped up, so as not to knock the knight off the horse. However, Liu Guangshi pressed his body close to the horse's back, and it was as stable as if it were cast on it. He couldn't help but cheered: "Good riding skills!"
Fang Jie's eyesight is truly extraordinary. When it comes to Liu Guangshi's marksmanship and archery skills, they are both outstanding. However, his riding skills are truly amazing. Even if he were to put it in the entire Western Army, he would be among the top three. ——This is not only the result of a lot of hard work, but talent is also extremely rare.
Fang Jie was stunned. How alert was Liu Yanqing? The reins were pulled and he took advantage of the situation to escape.
Fang Jie couldn't catch up, and immediately became angry with Liu Guangshi: "Humph, let's go, old man, let the young one stay!" He grabbed the horse's belly and rushed towards him.
The corners of Liu Guangshi's eyes twitched, and he thought to himself: If you want to fight, I will be afraid of you like a tiger, but if you chase me and run away, haha, it's not that I am being humble, in fact, all the gentlemen here are all younger brothers!
Although he looked panicked, his movements were as smooth as flowing water:
With a kick of his left foot and a tug of his right hand, the horse turned around in the air and shook the reins. The horse neighed "Herod", turned up its four hooves, jumped left and right, and made a zigzag. , he got rid of Fang Jie in an instant and hid in the cavalry, never to be seen again.
As the saying goes: It comes like the wind and goes like lightning. The general's long legs are difficult to fall into. He bravely rescues his father in distress and escapes into the crowd out of sight.
Liu's father and son cooperated tacitly and handed over the flashes one after another. Fang Jie was so angry that he had to vent his anger on the group of cavalry. He chopped and slashed with a halberd, killing the cavalry until they were pissed.
Over there, Wang De and Wang Zhen were furious when they saw it and wanted to kill them. However, they were shot by Du Wei with flying knives from time to time, and Pang Wanchun's cold arrows threatened them, making it difficult for them to advance.
The Battle of Hangzhou has reached this point. Although the officers and soldiers have the upper hand, the losses are actually not small. Especially, although Fang La's army is not elite, it has brave generals. Even the famous generals among the officers and soldiers have all joined him:
Yang Keshi and Wang Yuan were hit by arrows in their shoulders. "Little Taiwei" Yao Pingzhong was beaten by Deng Yuanjue and his brain was shaken. Xin Xingzong was stabbed with a spear. Liu Yanqing was hit by an arrow in his forearm. Liu Zhen, Zhao Ming and Huang Di were killed in battle. There will also be a lot of losses.
Now that Wang De and Wang Zhen couldn't charge forward, no one could stop Fang Jie.
At this time, half of the city was alive with fire. Tong Guan saw Fang Jie running rampant from a distance, his face was ashen, and after being silent for a long time, Fang slowly said: "Well, I originally wanted to stay to deal with the devil Fang La, but now I have to deal with the immediate situation first - go and fight with him. I invited Mr. Huang to come."
Not long after, the Yu princes under his command invited an old man in a crane cloak to come over. He looked about seventy years old, with crane hair and a childlike face, and a delicate and rosy complexion. If his hair was dyed black, say he was in his twenties or thirties, I'm afraid some people would be willing to take it. letter.
What is Tong Guan's identity? Seeing the arrival of the old man, he quickly dismounted his horse, took a few steps forward, and saluted with clasped fists: "Mr. Huang, the general is incompetent and was blocked by the enemy general with his troops. I have no choice but to ask you to take action to subdue the demon and defend the road. Please forgive me for being rude."
The old man waved his hand slightly and said politely: "I have been receiving state salary for a long time, so I naturally want to contribute to the court! It's just these small tricks that I accidentally realized when I was reading Taoist canon. It's hard to say how powerful they can be. If they are useless, When I return, please forgive Tong Shuai..."
Tong Guan laughed and said: "Mr. Huang performed martial arts in front of the officials. With a stick of incense, he defeated seventeen masters of the Imperial City Division. The official's imperial pen personally mentioned the eight words 'God teaches you unique skills, Xiao proud of the past and the present'. How can it be false?"
Then his face became solemn and he said solemnly: "If he really has no choice but to resist the traitor, then his life should not be cut off. I will have no other words here."
After hearing this, Mr. Huang nodded and smiled: "In that case, let me give it a try."
As he spoke, he waved his sleeves, held his head high, and walked towards the battle formation with bare hands.
Several Yu Hous around Tong Guan were all confidants. At this moment, they all asked curiously: "What is the status of the Prime Minister? How can he be so polite to this old Taoist? And this old Taoist, he could not get out of the car all the way, and he could not speak to anyone. , could it be that he is someone close to the emperor?"
This Mr. Huang agreed to take action. Although he had not yet accomplished anything, Tong Guan seemed sure that he would succeed. He seemed calm and calm at the moment. Hearing the questions from his subordinates, he smiled slightly, waved his hand and said: "You and others are all frogs in the well, how can you know what is going on in the world?" Rich? Although this man wears Taoist robes, he is not a true Taoist priest. He is the number one scholar in the fifth year of Yuanfeng (1082), and his surname is Huang Mingshang..."
The confidants were surprised: "The Number One Scholar? Isn't he a civil servant?"
Tong Guan nodded and said: "It's a civil official. That year, this man was thirty-eight years old. He served as an imperial scholar for several years. Later, he was released from foreign service and served as the prefect of Fuzhou. Later, the current official came to the throne and searched for Taoists all over the world. The book, a total of 5,481 volumes, is called "Wanshou Taoist Canon". In order to engrave and print it, I heard that Huang Zhifu was knowledgeable and careful, so he recalled him to the court and entrusted him with the engraving. Haha, I I remember it was the first year of Zhenghe, and Mr. Huang was already sixty-seven years old."
When he said this, envy and admiration flashed in his eyes, and he sighed: "At that time, the court officials thought that he was nearly seventy years old and had many old diseases, and they were afraid that he would stay in this position forever. Unexpectedly, this man was really unparalleled in intelligence - - How about Taoism? Haha, in order to imprint it accurately, he carefully read the Taoist canon word for word, spent four years, and became proficient in Taoism all over the world. From it, he actually realized the method of immortality with a light body. Not only did he get rid of all his illnesses, but he also created it himself He has developed countless wonderful abilities and developed amazing magical powers that move the body and move the earth."
The confidants were dumbfounded and said in horror: "If it is as the prime minister said, if this old man just studies like this, he can learn by himself without a teacher and develop unparalleled skills. Wouldn't he be the second smartest person in the world? How can I compare with him? Come on, haven't we all become stubborn rocks and rotten wood? This man's intelligence is probably second only to the Prime Minister."
Tong Guan was angry and laughed: "You monkeys, don't make such a shameful fart! Do you think it's honorable to spread these words? If people hear it, I will lose all my face. Although I claim to be smart, compared with this person Compared with each other, there is a huge difference between cloud and mud!"
He couldn't help but sigh and said: "Oh, the world is so big and full of wonders. Now that the Holy Emperor is in the court, there are sages coming to the world. This is what it should be."
The cronies did not flatter him and quickly followed suit: "If you put it this way, this man is the smartest person in the world."
Tong Guan glanced at everyone coldly, and said with a serious face: "You are farting again! Although Huang Shang is extremely smart, how can he compare with the officials? The officials are talented in poetry and unparalleled in calligraphy and painting. They are the smartest people in the world. Man, this Huang Shang is still second."
All the confidants were amazed and said in unison: "Good advice, Prime Minister!"
Seeing that Tong Guan was talking freely and in great interest, the close followers naturally wanted to support him even more. One of the close followers asked with curiosity on his face: "Excuse me, Prime Minister, why is it called 'Earth-shaking Divine Power'?"
Tong Guan sneered and said: "Don't you listen to what I just said? The officials tested his kung fu, and the seventeen masters of the Imperial City Division competed one by one. None of them was his opponent. It was the commander of the Imperial City Division, the number one master in the Imperial City. Kui Xiangyang didn't go through fifty rounds in his hands, and he even gave him some advice. He was so happy that he shouted, "With this wonderful method, I can achieve my goal." He hurriedly asked for leave from the official. , went into seclusion alone."
All the confidants knew the reputation of the most powerful master in Da Nei, and they were immediately amazed. Tong Guan said happily, and said: "There is one more thing that I told you not to spread out until now - Lin Lingsu, the leader of the Shenxiao Sect, was so amazing in martial arts. ? Especially with the Five Thunder Techniques, he is almost like a god. He relied on this skill to run rampant in the government and the public for many years. How arrogant is he? Why did the officials reprimand him just because they said they were reprimanding him? "
The cronies were surprised: "Could it be Mr. Huang who took action?"
Tong Guan nodded: "That's right! It was Mr. Huang who broke the Tao with force and destroyed Lin Lingsu's skills. Otherwise, do you think he is willing to return home honestly?"
What he said here was eloquent, but Huang Shang had already entered the middle of the rebel army. He didn't even look at the swords and guns dancing around him, and rushed straight into the middle as if he was not touched by dust. He saw Du Wei waving his hand. The seven-star sword chopped into officers and soldiers randomly. This man was wearing heavy armor made by himself. The officers and soldiers were killing each other without hesitation. The spear pierced a spot and the knife cut a mark. The sword in his hand was sharp. At this moment, there were many people in front and behind him. It is said that there are seventy or eighty corpses.
Huang Shang looked at it for a moment, nodded secretly and said: This rebel thief's swordsmanship is brave, but also extraordinary. He should be a famous figure among thieves, so I'll exclude him.
The two of them were still two or three feet away at this time, and they didn't see Huang Shang's gestures, but they saw a white shadow flashing in front of them, and said in a deep voice: "Rebel, if you are willing to abandon the dark and turn to the light, I will not kill you, otherwise I will die."
Du Wei was shocked by his movement and quickly took two steps back. However, he was brave by nature. Although he saw that the other party was a rare master, he was not willing to be outdone. He laughed and said: "I am a member of the Mingjiao Wusan, you old man If your son likes to betray you, I can make the decision to accept you."
Huang Shang was slightly happy: There are hundreds of thousands of Ming Cult members, and Wu San people are already among the top few. He said calmly: "In that case, just die."
When Du Wei saw that he was old and crazy, he couldn't help but get angry. He exhaled loudly and swung his sword to slash. The wind of the sword roared loudly, and its power was obviously much greater than when he fought just now.
Huang Shang stared at his sword, dodged a few moves, and said to himself: "It's strong enough but not agile enough. It should be broken like this..."
Spreading his five fingers, he brushed it off gently, as if playing a piano, it lightly touched Du Wei's right elbow.
Although Du Wei's armor is thick, his elbows need to be flexible and cannot be covered by armor. Therefore, when he flicked it, he felt a thin force penetrate into his bones. His arms were sore, and all the strength in his body collapsed instantly.
Huang Shangqiang rushed forward, raised his right hand, and the five fingers that had just been freehand like clouds instantly sharpened like a scimitar, and slammed into Du Wei's head.
Du Wei was not surprised but overjoyed, thinking that this old man is stupid in practicing martial arts. Fighting in battle is different from your martial arts competition. My helmet is made of pure iron. If you hit it with force, your five fingers will Wouldn't it be broken? The five fingers connected with the heart, and the old man's vision went dark in pain, so I slashed him in two with one sword...
Then he thought about it, stepped on the ground and straightened his back, shouted loudly, raised his neck and bumped his head against his paw. It was too late to say that, but it was too soon. He only heard two clicks. Du Wei suddenly froze on the spot, and a thought flashed through his heart. Thought: That's all. The first sound was that my helmet was broken. The second sound was that my head and bones were broken. This guy must be cheating and have a hidden weapon on his finger...
My thoughts turned here, and my eyes fell into darkness.
Huang Shang pulled out the five fingers from Du Wei's head, but saw that the red ones were blood, the white ones were brain flakes, and then there were skin and nails. The nails were neatly trimmed. How could there be any trace of hidden weapons?
Pang Wanchun saw Du Wei fighting with someone, so he immediately came to help him. After walking a few steps, he saw Huang Shang pulling out his five fingers. He was frightened for a moment. Although there are many powerful finger-grabbing skills in the world, but in one moment, It is not suitable for fighting on the battlefield, and secondly, it is unheard of to have such finger strength that can break through iron and bones like rotting soil.
Huang Shang's senses were very keen. Pang Wanchun looked at him for a moment. He suddenly turned his head and looked at Pang Wanchun with a faint smile. Pang Wanchun felt shuddering, turned his horse's head and left.
Wang Zhen saw it from a distance and shouted: "Pang Wanchun, please stop leaving!"
Huang Shang perked up: "One of the five marshals of the Ming Cult? Then you can stay." Before he finished speaking, the man jumped up like a big bird and rushed towards Pang Wanchun. In mid-air, the wind suddenly blew, and two The thorn bones were drawn sharply, and it was Pang Wanchun's two lieutenants, Lei Jiong and Ji Ji, who took action. One target was on the lower abdomen and the other on the old bird.
He was in the air at the moment, and it was logically impossible to dodge. However, Huang Shang did not panic, opened his mouth to take a breath, and actually stopped in the air, and the two attacks failed.
Huang Shang shouted low and stepped down with both feet. This move was fast and strange. Lei Jiong turned sideways and narrowly avoided getting out of the way. Ji Ji's reaction to "Shooting the Elephant Crossbow" was a little slow, and there was a morning mark on his forehead. He was stepped on, but with a click, half of his head collapsed.
This is exactly what it is: After reading all the Taoist scriptures without a Taoist heart, you will swing the five-stringed harp when you feel like it. Thousands of armies are unable to stop the cultivators, and thousands of horses gallop together to appear in the Nine Yins.
