"Guo Jing" is Qiao Daoqing's pseudonym, and the person he recommends is naturally the "winged tiger" Lei Heng.
Previously, Lei Heng and Li Zhu were captured by the Imperial City Division. Fortunately, Qiao Daoqing used the pseudonym "Guo Jing" and staged a big show under the guise of "Golden Sword Star Lord and White Tiger Star Lord" to save them both.
Kui Xiangyang had no real evidence to prove that the two were related to the Ming Cult. To put it into detail, he was the first to provoke the enmity.
Seeing that "Guo Jing" had a holy family member, he simply betrayed his favor and let him go.
When the "Shenjuzi" Ma Lingtong passed the news, the two of them simply did not return to the village and stayed in Bianjing to help Qiao Daoqing.
When Li Zhu left the city last time, Lei Heng took on the responsibility of contacting Qiao Daoqing and Wen Renshi Chong.
Hearing that the Chongjian officials were living on his boat every day, he obviously wanted to abandon the city, so he asked Lei Heng to inform Qiao Daoqing.
Qiao Daoqing thought for a long time and asked Lei Heng to tell him: The official wanted to go, but let him go. If the people in the world are not allowed to see the background of the Song Emperor, how will Brother Wu gain great righteousness in the future?
Moreover, hearing that someone in the world has such a great performance in protecting the emperor must be in the emperor's heart. Given time, if something is really done, the official will be captured without a bloody blow.
Therefore, Tong Guanling heard that Renshi Chong set sail and left the capital. He heard that Renshi Chong was obedient and obedient. This was because he had made arrangements in advance.
However, despite these arrangements, when he actually saw Zhao Ji abdicate and run away, and Zhao Huan was forced to ascend the throne, Lei Heng became angry and went to Qiao Daoqing to drink and relax, complaining: "Unexpectedly, the officials are really so useless, a dignified emperor, If you don’t care about the country at the top, you don’t care about your family at the bottom, and you don’t care about your wife and children, how can you still be a human being?”
Qiao Daoqing sneered and said: "Don't you know that Military Advisor Wu at home calls him 'Jianglong Leg'? How did he get this name if he didn't kick him away? I already knew what kind of person he was, and I wish he would leave and lose his majesty in the world. I just hate this." The city is full of innocent people, and if they are attacked by the golden soldiers, who will be the best?"
Lei Heng nodded repeatedly: "Brother Wu often said that when the Han Dynasty was strong in ancient times, it was the Han people who chased and beat the barbarians. That is what truly makes the Han family majestic! If we are here now, if we just watch the barbarians persecute the Han family, The common people are no longer worthy of being called heroes. But I don’t want to help the Zhao family, which is really embarrassing."
Qiao Daoqing thought for a while, then shook his head and said: "You are right. Since you are called a hero, how can you not protect your own people? You are helping me, but not for the Zhao family..."
He drank the wine in one gulp and pointed to the picture-scroll-like cityscape outside: "Just for the prosperity of this hundred miles, don't let the wild dogs trample you!"
After hearing this, Lei Heng was so arrogant that he slapped the table and his cups and cups jumped wildly: "Brother Tao, you are right! If you have worked so hard for this martial arts, if you don't show it here, how long will it last? Brother Tao, let's go out and find a way. , arrange for me to go to the army, everyone knows that the Jurchens are extravagant, but it depends on whether he is extravagant, or my sword is extravagant!"
After some discussion between the two, they finally came up with Qiao Daoqing's recommendation.
At this time, Zhao Huan heard Qiao Daoqing's boast and became interested, so he ordered Lei Heng to enter the palace to perform martial arts.
Qiao Daoqing introduced Lei Heng and sang a song: "Lei Heng, a common man, has seen the emperor."
The eunuch next to him screamed: "How bold! Now that you have seen the emperor, how can you not worship him?"
When Zhao Huan saw that Lei Hengsheng had a body of seven feet and five inches, a purple face and a beard, and his muscles and bones were as strong as iron, he suddenly felt quite fond of him.
Then he waved his hand and said: "There are men in the world who are informal and polite. Just teach them slowly from now on."
Then he smiled at Lei Heng and said, "If you have the ability, you can present it in front of the court. If you are really outstanding, why should I reward you?"
Lei Heng thanked him with his fists, took a simple knife, and used it in the court. However, he saw that he was slashing east and west, turning south and north, and dancing like a tiger and a tiger.
Zhao Huan was overjoyed when he saw him and thought he was a rare warrior. He named him a seventh-grade Wu Yilang and ordered him to obey orders in front of Liu Guangshi's tent. He would be rewarded after he had meritorious service in killing the enemy.
Another day later, the three-day period was up. Seeing no response from the city, the Jin soldiers began to attack the city. Zhao Huan was shocked when he heard about it and hurriedly ordered Liu Guangshi to lead the troops to guard it.
Some officials couldn't help but wonder, if there were veteran generals like Wang Huan and Zhang Kai, and tiger generals like Yao Xing, why did the new emperor choose Liu Guangshi's general?
Probably because Zhao Huan had met those generals before, he felt that Liu Yanqing, Wang Huan, and Zhang Kai were a bit old. Although Yao Xing was young, he was taciturn. Only Liu Guangshi had long legs, good looks, and loved to talk. Therefore, Zhao Huan recognized that he was a general.
Liu Guangshi did not dare to disobey and came to the tower.
Seeing the golden soldiers who looked like tigers and wolves outside, he was horrified and ordered Lei Heng: "Vice General Lei, please supervise the battle at the top of the city. Don't let a single golden soldier go to the city. I will go and summon the young people to help. Come as you go."
Lei Heng was born in Dutou, how many thieves have he caught under his hands? One look at the expression on the general's face and one knew that this person was a kite with a broken string, a famous person who would never come back.
But he didn't want to cause trouble at this time, so he obeyed honestly, put on armor and carried a sword, and supervised the battle on the city.
In the side of the Jin soldiers, Lou Shi was like Zhuge Liang, sitting in a small car and arranging troops, with the loyal army as the vanguard, and ordered the Khitan soldiers to suppress the formation and support them. Anyone who retreated would only retreat one person and kill the whole team. Those loyal soldiers could not bear the fierce battle and were killed. Being forced like this, I have no choice but to fight to the death
Lou Shi received a lot of baggage in Zhengzhou, and in the past few days he had people build a lot of equipment: moat bridges to deal with the moat, ladder trucks to deal with the city walls, rush vehicles to deal with the city gates, half-ships to protect against arrows, and even large and small stone cannons, everything you need.
Therefore, as soon as the battle started, it was like a mountain of knives spinning, a sea of fire boiling, arrows flying like rain above and below the city, and long crossbows and boulders flying around from time to time, killing Shura like hell.
Fortunately, the city wall of Bianliang is extremely high. In terms of the outer city alone, the city wall is forty-three feet high, the upper width is also forty-three feet, and the lower width is sixty-five feet. All kinds of defensive equipment are also available.
Although the Song soldiers in the city were not elite, they were able to defend the city and took advantage after all. The two sides fought for a day, only to kill corpses all over the ground, and the Jin soldiers never made an attack.
At dawn the next day, the Jin soldiers attacked again. By noon, the troops and horses changing defense were still late, and the Song army was already exhausted.
Lou Shi saw the flaw and sent Wu Lin to answer Taiyu and lead two hundred Jurchens. They all changed into loyal army uniforms and sneaked into the battlefield.
At this time, a ladder truck happened to be pushed to the front of the city. The ladder was swung up and tightly held against the city wall.
A village leader in Taihang Mountain led dozens of his followers and shouted to the top of the city, cutting down a Song army. Hundreds of people around him did not dare to step forward.
When Lei Heng saw it at a glance, he felt anxious and wanted to fight, but was blocked by numerous Song troops. He roared angrily, jumped up to the battlements, and ran wildly on the scattered battlements. He took one step forward, leaping and reaching Zhang, it's like walking on flat ground, it really lives up to the name of "Tiger with Wings"!
Lou Shi was sitting in the car and saw a man leaping like flying on the city. He pointed and said: "This man must be a fierce general, shoot him!"
However, before the golden generals around him could unload their bows and arrows, Lei Heng leapt forward and passed two or three feet away. The place where he landed was the core of the loyal army. He slashed with his simple sword and killed the leader of the village with one strike. After knocking him over, he killed seven or eight minions in a row, which was unstoppable.
Seeing the bravery of the generals, the surrounding Song troops became emboldened. They clamored and marched forward, shooting in rows with random spears and knocking down all the minions on the city.
Lei Heng was about to overthrow the ladder when Wu Lin Taiyu let out a roar and rushed up the ladder to the city with two heavy serrated knives in his hands. The knives followed people away, hacking away without thinking. Lei Heng stopped him with a simple knife. If you eat him, you will retreat step by step.
At this time, the Jurchen soldiers from behind swarmed forward, all armed with tiger spears, heavy knives, and large axes. Some also threw spears and darts randomly. The Song soldiers could not resist and scrambled to retreat.
Lei Heng's eyes were red, and he wished he could kill the golden general in two with one strike, but Wu Lin responded with his desire and stayed on top of him, slashing at him with two swords like windmills, making Lei Heng scream in panic.
Several commanders saw that they were frustrated and came to fight bravely. The Jurchen soldiers cooperated with each other so well that they were all killed by him. The loyal troops below the city cheered like waves and surged up one after another.
Seeing that the city wall was about to be broken down, suddenly a big flag rushed up from the military road. The flag was flying, and it read: "Yi Min Serves the Country". Behind and behind the flag, there were all Bianjing people, some of whom were warriors. Most of them were ordinary people holding steel knives and long swords. They took some dung forks and poles, and there were thousands or hundreds of them, shouting and rushing towards the generals.
The one at the head shouted: "We, the Song people, also have a bloody nature, Golden Dog, I am Qiu, the "Bianliang Magic Sword"..."
Before the name was announced, a Jurchen soldier swung his sword and chopped off the man's head with one blow.
Several Jurchen soldiers laughed wildly and killed without mercy with swords and guns in their hands. They killed everyone instantly. Some people were so frightened that they turned around and ran back. But more people shouted: "Don't be afraid of him, don't be afraid of him. Eat him and come in." , my parents and my wife will suffer, if we fight with him."
In the midst of the commotion, an old voice suddenly shouted: "Smash them, smash them."
The common people were waking up from a dream, and threw out the things they had in their hands. But when they saw bricks, kitchen knives, and black clouds coming towards them, even the brave Jurchen soldiers were so frightened that they retreated hurriedly, and the people swarmed forward.
The Jurchen soldiers were about to step forward to kill, when an old man suddenly bumped out of the crowd. He had white beard and white hair, and a white robe as white as snow. He was holding a long sword with a shining blue light. He shouted: "Barbarians invade China, and I will tell you to die." Here!"
Listening to the voice, it was the one who just asked everyone to throw the guy.
Seeing that he was full of literary talent, the Jurchen soldiers thought he was a "Bianliang Magic Sword" and his like. A particularly strong Jurchen soldier roared and dropped the hammer, deliberately smashing the old man into a pulp. Unexpectedly, the old man Leaning to the side, moving like a rabbit, he held out the long sword in his hand, piercing the opponent's throat with a brush, then pulled it out, jumped forward, the sword blade was like the wind, and passed through the other Jurchen's throat. When he landed, he crossed his legs and shrank back, hiding. The ax struck horizontally, and the long sword stabbed back from under his own armpit, hitting the axe-soldier in the lower part of his body.
In an instant, three people were killed in a row. The blood of the people was brimming with joy and their voices were like thunder. Many people shouted: "Mr. Longqiu, you are good at swordsmanship and martial arts!"
Seeing how ferocious the old man was, several Jurchen soldiers roared and came to attack him. However, they saw that the old man was as agile as an ape and could retreat freely. Every time the sword in his hand was extended, it would leave a scar on his opponent.
Wulin Datai wanted to fight the old man at a glance. Lei Heng roared: "The winner has not yet been decided, where are you going?" He put more force on his hands, tightly wrapped around the other man, and shouted even more: "People You are still working hard, are you guys who eat military rations worse than women?"
The Song soldiers blushed and gritted their teeth to fight to the death.
However, the ladder did not fall down, and the Jurchen soldiers came up one after another. Although many people came up, they were no longer as skilled as the old man in white. Instead, they were killed countless by the Jurchen soldiers. Lei Heng was extremely anxious, but he could not defeat the golden general. In the moment of urgency, I heard someone yelling angrily: "Hey! You, a military man, look down on women?"
Lei Heng was ecstatic when he heard the sound and cried out: "Tieniu, how did you get here?"
Turning around, where is the Iron Bull?
But she is a fat girl eight feet tall, with two feet as big as a boat, wearing bright red satin-covered shoes, and thin cotton, which is so tight that it almost bursts. Her face is covered with white flesh, and there is a faint touch on her lips that looks like a beard. He is an average person, carrying a water tank in his left and right hands——
Just like Li Yuanba carrying a drum, urn, and golden hammer!
Wulin Datai wanted to take advantage of Lei Heng's distraction and slashed down with all his strength with his sword, but Lei Heng blocked it with his sword. Unable to withstand his huge strength, Wu Lin Datai stumbled a few steps and stumbled on his heels. He couldn't help but fell down after looking behind him.
Lei Heng was so shocked that he secretly shouted: My life is at stake!
Wulin Datai wanted to show his ferocious face. He stepped forward and raised the sword high to know Lei Heng's life. Then he heard the fat woman shouting in a voice like Li Kui: "We men from Bianliang, who allows you to kill him?"
It was too late to say, but it was too soon, but when he saw the fat girl waving her left arm, the water tank swept across, and whipped up a whining evil wind. Wu Lin was shocked, and he crossed his knives in front of him and heard a bang. There was a loud noise, and the water tank exploded, with countless small and large pieces hitting his face. Wulin Datai couldn't help but close his eyes with lust.
This situation is terrible, that woman still has a vat in her right hand!
The sound rose up and landed heavily on the back of Wulin Datai's head, shattering again.
Even though Wulin Dataiyu was wearing an iron helmet, he couldn't help but feel as if he had been struck by lightning, and was dizzy for a moment.
Seeing an opportunity, Lei Heng jumped up like a carp and swept his sword across, cutting off the enemy general's hands with one strike.
Wulin Datai cried out in pain, opened his bare arms, and wanted to rush down to the city with Lei in his arms.
Fang took a step forward, and was caught by the fat girl's hands. He lifted it up with a roar, threw it several feet, and hit it heavily on the battlement.
Unbiased, he smashed the hook of the ladder to pieces, causing the ladder to fall backwards. Wu Lin Da Taiyu also flew out of the city, and saw that he fell to his death.
The fat girl lost the water tank, picked up the two heavy serrated knives that Wu Lin Datai had left behind, shouted and charged into the crowd.
The two knives, each weighing ten or twenty kilograms, were like two straws in her hands, dancing into two bloody shadows.
Lei Heng was dumbfounded and felt a mouthful of blood burst from his chest. He yelled and stepped forward to fight alongside her. It was difficult for two people with three swords and four or five Jurchens to resist.
While the killing was going on, an old woman suddenly heard hissing: "Chen Jichang, defending the city and fighting is the business of killing Han people. How can you, an old man like you, join in the fun? Do you want to die early and make me a widow?"
The old man in white was carrying his sword with him, his body floating like clouds, and he was fighting vigorously. Suddenly, when he heard this sound, his whole body trembled, and the long sword was released from his hands. A Jurchen soldier reacted very quickly, and kicked the old man somersaulting out. His white clothes were suddenly stained with blood.
When the Jurchen soldiers were about to kill him, they saw a big red figure rushing out, holding two kitchen knives, cutting off several heads in an instant, and yelling: "You dare to bully my Liu Yue'e's husband, a bunch of barbarians?"
Lei Heng was shocked and said in shock: "'Huangzhou Xia Zong' Chen Jichang! "Hedong Lion" Liu Yue'e, these two old Xia actually came to Bianliang?"
Before she finished speaking, Liu Yue'e's red shadow flashed and she was in front of him. She slashed the two Jurchens with two knives and said angrily: "You little bastard, who do you think is the elder?" She threw the kitchen knife with her backhand and penetrated deeply. A Jurchen soldier slapped Lei Heng with his empty hand behind his head, causing him to fall to the ground.
The fat girl said angrily: "He is a hero who kills golden dogs, how can you do it?"
Liu Yue'e snorted coldly: "If he is a good man, how can he be killed by the golden dog in the city?" He kicked Lei Heng again: "For the sake of your mother-in-law, I will spare you."
He turned around and rushed out, cutting down another person with a single blow.
At this time, there was a cry from the north end of the city wall, but it was Yao Xing who led two to three thousand troops to kill. Seeing that there was no hope, the Jurchen soldiers jumped under the city one after another. There were many corpses under the city. If they jumped prepared, most of them would be fine.
On the city wall, there were only sixty or seventy bodies of Jurchen soldiers left, and hundreds of civilians died in the battle.
Seeing that there was no more fighting, the fat girl hurriedly helped Lei Heng up: "Don't be afraid, that old woman is rude, I will go and argue with her." Looking back, the old lady in red and the old man in white were nowhere to be seen. ?
It was Lei Heng who advised: "Don't argue with her. These two are famous heroes in the world. They were close friends with layman Dongpo. What's more, if it weren't for him and his wife, I wouldn't have been able to support the reinforcements. By the way." , I would like to thank the girl for saving my life, but I don’t know her name. I’m Lei Heng, if I don’t die in this battle, I will pay you a visit and thank you for saving my life.”
The girl rolled her eyes, threw away her two knives, touched her pigtails with two fat hands, and made a shy gesture: "My maiden name is Dahua. Don't forget it. You need to know how to save your life." Yes, it’s not small, but how do you… plan to thank me?”
There is a poem that praises the courage of the big flower——
Back then, when I was a child in my arms, Han Wu once slept in the same bed. Today, killing the golden soldiers is like killing a dog. Although the tiger has wings, its heart is hanging.
Chen Zhen, courtesy name Jichang, his story can be found in Su Shi's "The Biography of Fang Shanzi", which contains two paragraphs of the original text -
"Fang Shanzi is a hidden person between Guang and Huang. When I was young, I admired the Zhu family and Guo Xie, and all the heroes in the village followed them. When I was a little older, I read at every turn, hoping to use it to ride the world, but I didn't meet him in the end. Later I escaped to Guang, Huangjian is called Qiting. He lives in a nunnery and eats vegetables. He doesn't interact with the world. He abandons his carriage and horse, destroys his clothes and goes back and forth on foot. No one in the mountain recognizes him. When he saw the hat he was wearing and the tall square house, he said, "Is this the case?" Is this the remains of the ancient mountain crown? "That's why he is called Fang Shanzi."
"When I was young, I thought that Fang Shanzi was good at wine and swords, and used money like dung. Nineteen years ago, I was in Qishan. I saw Fang Shanzi riding on two horses, carrying two arrows, and traveling to the west mountain. A magpie rose in front, and the horse chased him and shot him. , failed to get it; Fang Shanzi's angry horse came out alone and got it with one shot. Because he and Yu Ma discussed the use of troops and ancient and modern successes and failures, he called himself a great man. In the past few days, the strong look can still be seen between the eyebrows, but not the people in the mountains. ?”
"His home is in Luoyang, and his garden and house are as magnificent as those of princes and princes. He has fields in Hebei, and he gets thousands of bolts of silk every year, which is enough to make him rich and happy. He abandoned them and refused to take them. He came to the poor mountains alone. How could he not get anything?"
There is another poem, four of which are -
The layman Longqiu is also pitiful. He talks empty talk and stays up all night. Suddenly I heard the roar of a lion from the east of the river, and I dropped my stick and felt confused.
