After Fu Tianpeng knocked out the two rebel generals Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan, Han Shizhong immediately led the army to attack Xiuzhou. The Song army was so powerful that the soldiers who defended the city surrendered after realizing the reality. Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing entered the prison to rescue Liang Hongyu, Han Yanzhi, mother and son, and at the same time released other people in the prison. The people of Xiuzhou were eager to see Master Wang capture the thieves. After seeing Han Shizhong's troops today, they were very happy.

Han Shizhong ascended the throne to discuss matters, and after arranging local affairs, Feiqi sent people with letters to the capital to report his victory. After receiving Han Shizhong's letter, Emperor Gaozong was overjoyed and gave Han Shizhong a large plaque with the words "Gong Zhong Ti Guo" to commend the meritorious soldiers.

Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan were captured this time, and they only regretted their bad luck. Both of them showed no regrets for their rebellion. The two of them believed that they had the iron ticket and elixir book, which was equivalent to having a gold medal to avoid death. However, when they were escorted to the capital, they realized that everything was under the control of others.

Dali Temple received the Holy Order and had full authority to handle the case of Miao Liu rebellion. In the court, Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan looked calm and took out the iron certificate, Dan Shuliang and handed it to Fan Xun, the chief minister of Dali Temple. Fan Xun stroked his long beard and laughed. He asked Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan to take a good look at the writing on it.

Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan looked down at the small words on the back and were immediately frightened. It turns out that it was clearly stated above: Except for treason, nothing else will matter.

Fan Xun convicted Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan of treason in court. The two signed confessions and were adjourned. Gaozong personally judged them, dismissed them from office and seized titles, and gave them the punishment of being a tycoon. After dealing with the rebellion of the Huaixi Army, Gaozong remembered how wise the national policy formulated by Emperor Taizu was to emphasize civility and suppress military power. Now that the Song Dynasty established a state based on half of the country, with the continuous intrusion of the Kingdom of Jin from outside, how to control the power of generals and soldiers Next, ensuring the longevity of the country became a problem that Emperor Gaozong focused on solving.

After the conquest of the rebellion was over, Zhang Jun called Marshal Yue Fei to his tent and asked him to share his views on the purge of the Huaixi Army. Marshal Yue Fei bluntly told him that Liu Guangshi drank too much and lacked strict military discipline control over the Huaixi Army, which led to the disorganization of the army and the breeding of rebels.

Seeing that Yue Fei had opinions about Liu Guangshi, Zhang Jun immediately asked him if Zhang Jun and Lu Yizhong could take over the command. Yue Fei shook his head again. Seeing that Yue Fei did not recognize the three famous generals, Zhang Jun was very dissatisfied with him. He angrily said to Yue Fei: "These generals have gone through hundreds of battles and made a lot of contributions to the court. None of their achievements can be counted among yours." Qingyan, can't I leave the Huaixi Army under your command?"

Yue Fei told Zhang Jun seriously that if the Huaixi Army was handed over to him, it would be an invincible and invincible iron army. Although what Zhang Jun said was out of anger, Yue Fei's loyal words from the bottom of his heart were unintentional on the part of the speaker and intentional on the listener.

When Zhang Jun discussed with the imperial court the issue of purging the Huaixi Army, he wrote Yue Fei's words into the memorial. After reading the memorial, Emperor Gaozong was very dissatisfied with Yue Fei's idea. He wrote a letter and sent someone to hand it over to Yue Fei.

Yue Fei received the letter and looked at it. It said: In the autumn of the Qing Dynasty, you raised your troops and stood by the side. The wind and frost were already cold. It was a good expedition. If you have any other matters, please report them secretly. After the Huaixi Army rebelled, the imperial court became more cautious. The upper reaches of the Yangtze River are all under the care of your army in times of emergency. The troops and horses left behind can be ordered and trained neatly so that they can be dispatched in case of the enemy's arrival. The naval forces at Qiyang and Jiangzhou should also be dispatched. If you are in charge of your country, why should you say more?

After reading the letter, Yue Fei felt extremely melancholy. His passion for serving the country was met with suspicion. However, the emperor's orders could not be violated. After putting away the letter, he prepared to return to the camp to check the status of the army's preparation. At this time, the general who sent the message told Yue Fei that the Holy Emperor wanted him to send troops to destroy Yang Yao.

Yue Fei followed the order and sent people to Marshal Han Shizhong's camp to summon Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing to discuss the strategy of attacking Dongting Lake. Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing were very puzzled when they heard that Yue Shuai wanted to kill Yang Yao.

Yue Fei shook his head and told the two of them that this time it was the Holy One who ordered him to enter Dongting Lake on the same day without any mistake. Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing knew that it was difficult to violate the holy will, and Commander Yue had no choice. The two of them are willing to go to Dongting Lake Tianwang Gang again to meet Yang Yao.

When the three of them were discussing how to deal with the Tianwang Gang, a soldier came in and said, "Marshal Qi, there is someone outside who wants me to hand a letter to General Fu."

Fu Tianpeng took the letter and saw that it was an autographed letter from Leader Yang of the Tianwang Clan. Yang Yao informed Fu Tianpeng in the letter that recently, under the banner of the Tianwang Gang, some ships had robbed official ships and people's supplies along the rivers and lakes. Yang Yao asked Fu Tianpeng to help investigate the matter thoroughly, and at the same time asked Marshal Yue Fei about the matter. Did the officials ever say anything about the hijacking of the official ship?

Fu Tianpeng let Yue Fei read the letter, and Yue Fei told Fu Tianpeng that if this matter was handled properly, it would be very beneficial to persuade Yang Yao to join our army. Fu Tianpeng nodded, and he told Yue Fei that he would secretly find out who was the one who made things out of thin air and deliberately framed the Tianwang Gang.

After the two left Yue Fei's camp, Fu Tianpeng asked Zhao Xueqing where to start the investigation. Zhao Xueqing believed that only the Long Whale Gang dared to share a piece of the pie with the Heavenly King Gang on the water. However, with the death of the master, the Long Whale Gang lost its former glory. Moreover, the disciples in the gang were loyal, so this matter could never be caused by the Long Whale Gang. Help.

Then Zhao Xueqing told Fu Tianpeng that since it was not clear who robbed the official ship. It is better to use the power of Jianghu to help the investigation. After saying that, Zhao Xueqing hurried forward and moved forward. Fu Tianpeng followed her and said, "Sister Qing, where are you going to find out the news?"

Zhao Xueqing smiled and said to him: "Brother stupid, of course you have to go to Hongxinmen to find Wen Jiu and Wen Shi."

The two of them rode fast horses and drove away. Soon after arriving at Hongxinmen, Zhao Xueqing asked her disciples to find their gang leader. After a while, brothers Wen Jiu and Wen Shi came out. They smiled and said to Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing: "Master Fu and Nuxia Zhao, you two haven't been here for a long time. You must have something important to ask for our help this time."

Zhao Xueqing nodded and said, "Wen Jiu, Wen Shi, please help me find out who is causing trouble on the lake under the banner of the Heavenly King Gang recently."

After hearing what Zhao Xueqing said, Wen Jiu and Wen Shi said to her: "Miss, we brothers knew you were going to ask about this matter. I'll give you an address, Fuji Tea House, and come here to wait for a man named Jin Liang. This guy has been there recently. He has a lot of money, and we found out that everything he sells comes from the lake."

Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing thanked Wen Jiu and Wen Shi and went to Fuji Teahouse to find Jin Liang. The two ordered a pot of Liu'an melon slices and some dried fruits, and then listened to the opera leisurely in the corner and waited for others. After a while, a man wearing a purple satin cardigan walked in. The waiter whispered to Fu Tianpeng that this person was Jin Liang.

Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing remained calm, pretending to watch the show while paying close attention to the movements at Jin Liang's table. Jin Liang asked the waiter for a pot of Pu'er and ordered some candied fruits. Fu Tianpeng told Zhao Xueqing that this guy seemed to be waiting for someone.

Sure enough, not long after Jin Liang took his seat, two more men walked into the teahouse one after another. The man in front is broad-shouldered and round-waisted, and is wearing an expensive Shu brocade cloak. Although the person in the back is not as well-dressed as the person in front, his clothes are still bright.

The two people sat with their backs to everyone, chatting and laughing with Jin Liang. As they talked, the words of the three people gradually lowered their voices. Fu Tianpeng listened attentively and heard the content of their conversation clearly. After Jin Liang talked with these two people for a while, they got up and left. Immediately afterwards, after Jin Liang paid for the tea, he also stood up and left the teahouse.

Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing followed out of the teahouse and saw Jin Liang parting ways with the two men. They decided to start with Jin Liang to find out what happened with the shipwreck. Jin Liang had a private courtyard in the western suburbs of the city. He opened the courtyard door, walked through the house, then opened the cupboard door and twisted the wall mechanism.

Zhao Xueqing said to Fu Tianpeng: "Brother Tianpeng, let's wait and see for him here."

Fu Tianpeng nodded, and soon they saw Jin Liang coming out carrying a woven bag. The two men restrained him from behind and pushed him back into the house. Jin Liang told Fu Tianpeng that as long as the hero is willing to let him go, all the treasures in the bag can be given to him.

Fu Tianpeng said angrily: "Jin Liang, am I here for your ill-gotten gains? Tell us the truth. Who sent you to attack the official ship?"

After Jin Liang heard Fu Tianpeng's words, he immediately denied it. Zhao Xueqing sneered at him and said, "Jin Liang, you'd better tell the truth. Let me ask you, what's going on with those two Jin people sitting with you?"

As soon as Zhao Xueqing's words came out, Jin Liang couldn't help but tremble. However, he still eloquently told Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing that the person sitting opposite him drinking tea was an antique dealer. Zhao Xueqing immediately retaliated against Jin Liang's words. She asked Jin Liang that the smell of mutton on his body was also brought by antiques, and it was not true.

As soon as these words came out, Jin Liang was completely dumbfounded. He told Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing that those two people were from the Kingdom of Jin. One was named Chi Hami and the other was Tong Langxian. Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing looked at each other and smiled, and secretly said in their hearts: "It's better to hide the truth."

Jin Liang didn't know what they were laughing at, and told them if they could let him go. Fu Tianpeng asked Jin Liang when the two Jin men would come again, and Jin Liang told them that they would come to receive the goods here in three days.

After learning the news, Fu Tianpeng sent letters to Yue Fei and Yang Yao respectively. After Yang Yao and Yue Fei received the news, Yue Fei planned to use this rare opportunity to sit down and discuss with Yang Yao to resolve the future issue of the Tianwang Gang.

After receiving the message from Fu Tianpeng, Yang Yao said to the gang: "Young Young Master Bo Yuntian helped our gang to find out the facts this time and cleanse the reputation of being a strong thief and bandit. I should really thank him. In addition, Marshal Yue Fei sincerely invited me to discuss the survival of the Tianwang Gang. Marshal Yue Fei is open-minded and upright in his work. I really admire him very much. I have always hoped to be lucky enough to meet this hero who serves the country loyally."

After listening to Yang Yao's story, all the brothers in the gang were very supportive of his decision. Yang Yizuo stood up and said to Yang Yao: "Gang leader, whether you occupy the mountain as the king or occupy the lake, after all, there is no place to settle down. Although the brothers in our gang are all from poor backgrounds, what is loyalty or loyalty? It’s clear.”

Yang Yao clapped his hands and praised Yang Yi. He told the brothers that he would meet with Yue Shuai this time. Just have a good discussion with him about joining the Yue Family Army. A real man is born between heaven and earth. If he doesn't do something spectacular, his life will be in vain.

After getting unanimous support from all the brothers, Yang Yao drafted a letter and sent it to Yue Fei. After Yue Fei received the letter, he rewarded the messenger with two ingots of gold and asked him to go back and reply to Gang Leader Yang. Yue Fei would definitely be waiting for him when he arrived.

After the matter of recovering the Tianwang Gang was agreed upon, Yue Fei notified Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing of their return. The two wrote back to tell Yue Shuai that Hamichi had sneaked into the Central Plains in disguise. In order to succeed in regaining the Heavenly King Gang, they must stay to prevent him from carrying out destruction.

Yue Fei told Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing that Hamichi was a military advisor of the Kingdom of Jin and was very cunning. There will definitely be many masters following him, so he must not act on impulse and put himself in danger.

Fu Tianpeng replied to Yue Shuai that he would be more careful in everything.

The third day came soon, and Fu Tianpeng asked Jin Liang how many people Hamichi had brought with him on this trip. After Jin Liang heard what he said, he stared at Fu Tianpeng with wide eyes. Fu Tianpeng asked him if he really didn't know, or if he was pretending to be confused. Jin Liang looked panicked and told Fu Tianpeng that he knew who Hamichi was.

Fu Tianpeng told him seriously that the person sitting with him drinking tea was Hamichi, who was the military advisor of the Kingdom of Jin. If you sell supplies from the Song Dynasty to the Jin Kingdom, you are helping the Jin people conquer their own country.

Jin Liang was horrified when he learned the truth. He told Fu Tianpeng that his friend Huang Qi had asked him to do these things. Huang Qi asked him to sell the supplies and give him benefits.

Fu Tianpeng said to Jin Liang: "Jin Liang, you are not the culprit who attacked official ships and civilian ships, and you don't know the situation here. After you lure Hami Chi here, I will capture the thief and let you go. Remember. As a citizen of the Song Dynasty, you should not do anything harmful to the people of the country."

Jin Liang nodded repeatedly, promising that Fu Tianpeng would remember his words, and expressed that he would draw a clear line with Huang Qi. After Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing set up an ambush near Jin Liang's house, they waited for Hami Chi to fall into the trap.

Jin Liang, carrying the treasure on his back, sat in the courtyard waiting for Hamichi to arrive. Soon a burst of smoke and dust rose from the southeast, and two fast horses ran towards this direction. Hamichi and his entourage dismounted and said to Jin Liang: "Jin Liang, are you ready with the cold iron I asked you to prepare?"

Jin Liang smiled and said to Hami Chi: "Uncle Chi, everything you want is here."

When Hamichi reached for the bag, Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing came out to kill him. Fu Tianpeng said to Hamichi: "Hamilchi, do you think you can escape my eyes by pretending to be an antique dealer?"

Hamichi turned to look at Fu Tianpeng and sneered at him: "It turns out it's you, a haunted boy. I met you here today. It can be said that we were enemies on a narrow road."

Fu Tianpeng took out his knife from its sheath and reached out to catch Hamichi. After Hamichi dodged the catch, his entourage put his palms together and struck Fu Tianpeng hard on the chest with a boy's prayer. Fu Tianpeng felt extremely upset at this moment. His vision went dark and he almost fell to the ground.

When Hamichi saw Fu Tianpeng hit a palm in the chest, he immediately laughed and said, "Idiot, do you think this military advisor can easily catch you? I have a master protecting me, so I can still be afraid of you."

After the attendant took off his coat and hat, Fu Tianpeng saw clearly that the person standing in front of him was actually a monk. This man has a fleshy face, eyes like copper bells, a broad nose, and a thick beard under his chin. You can tell from his appearance that this man is definitely not a kind person.

Hamichi told Fu Tianpeng that he had been hit by Master Pufeng's blood shadow soul chasing hand and would turn into a pool of thick blood in seven days. Fu Tianpeng was filled with anger. He used all the energy in his body to perform the most exquisite form of the Red Yang Magic Technique taught to him by Master Fashan, the Red Flame Lie Yang.

In an instant, a searing wave of air surrounded everyone, and Hamichi's clothes immediately caught fire. He was so frightened that he jumped up and down. Pu Feng didn't want to fight Fu Tianpeng again, so he took Hamichi and fled from here.

Seeing that Fu Tianpeng was injured, Jin Liang quickly pulled out his horse. He said to Zhao Xueqing: "Xia Xia, please rescue Master Fu quickly and find a famous doctor to diagnose and treat him."

Zhao Xueqing thanked Jin Liang with tears in her eyes and took Fu Tianpeng straight to Yue Fei's camp. At this moment, Yue Fei was leading his generals to meet Yang Yao at the meeting point. Halfway along the way, he could only hear the loud sounds of killing on both sides, and he was surrounded by golden soldiers in front and behind.

One of the generals in front reined in his horse and looked directly at Yue Fei with a pair of round eyes. Yue Fei looked at the flag above and knew that the person coming was Jin Wushu. A general at the back held two whips, stepped off the yellow fat horse, and stared at Song soldiers and generals with a fierce look.

Yue Fei pointed at Jin Wushu and angrily shouted: "Jin Wushu, your country has hijacked two saints and invaded my territory. I must avenge this."

Jin Wushu held the golden bird mountain ax in his hand and sneered at Yue Fei. He told Yue Fei to use whatever ability he had. As soon as the two generals met each other, they fought with swords drawn. Yang Yao was also ambushed on the way forward.

Yang Yao saw that the man blocking the road on the opposite side was carrying a Qingfeng sword and was dressed in white. He was a swordsman. He asked the Lord why he was blocking his way. The other party replied coldly: "Send you to the West."

After that, he drew his sword out of its sheath and rushed towards Yang Yao.

Just now this man had his back turned to Yang Yaocai, and Yang Yaocai didn't see his face clearly. When he turned around, he realized that the person coming was Xiao Jianqiu from the Long Whale Gang. Yang Yao was furious and ordered his brothers to capture Xiao Jianqiu, thinking that the Long Whale Gang had eliminated this scourge.

When everyone rushed forward, Xiao Jianqiu whistled, and arrows rained like locusts in the forest. Many brothers from the Tianwang Gang were shot to death on the spot. Yang Yao was furious and rushed forward to fight Xiao Jianqiu. Xiao Jianqiu turned back, used the monkey-picking fruit move, and shot a snake-shaped dart at Yang Yao.

Yang Yao's arm was injured by the dart. He looked at the wound and saw black blood flowing from it. Yang Yao angrily accused Xiao Jianqiu of being despicable. Xiao Jianqiu laughed loudly. After a brief confrontation, Yang Yao's vision went dark and he fell to the ground and died.

When Yue Fei and Jin Wushu arrived here after the fierce battle, Xiao Jianqiu and Jin Bing had already left for a long time. Yue Fei looked at the dead Yang Yao with deep regret in his heart. Yue Fei is determined to help Gang Leader Yang find the murderer to comfort his spirit in heaven.
