After Fu Tianpeng smashed Cao Yu's conspiracy to unite with the Jin Kingdom and betray the Song Dynasty, Yang Yi's injuries were almost healed after returning to Yue Fei's camp. At this moment, Zhao Baihe sent a letter to invite various gangs in the rivers and lakes to discuss ways to jointly fight against the Jin soldiers' southern invasion.
After Yang Yi showed the letter to Yue Fei, Yue Fei strongly agreed with Zhao Baihe's suggestion. Yue Fei told Fu Tianpeng, Zhao Xueqing and Yang Yi that a knight should care about the world and protect the country and the people. The three of them were very respectful after hearing what Yue Fei said.
After leaving the commander's tent, Yang Yi ran towards the Tianwang Gang. Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing ran towards Funiu Mountain after receiving Ruan Liang's message. While the two were marching, they saw smoke and dust rising in front of them, shouts and shouts, and then they saw a group of Song soldiers running towards them in a panic.
Fu Tianpeng stepped forward and revealed his identity to Song Bing. Song Bing told Fu Tianpeng that the grain and grass allocated by the court to Tanzhou had been robbed by bandits from Funiu Mountain. When Fu Tianpeng heard that Funiu Mountain had robbed the grain and grass, he asked his soldiers to go back and tell Marshal Yue Fei that he would go up the mountain to get the grain and grass back in person.
After the soldiers left, Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing hurried to Funiu Mountain. The two found Ruan Liang in a town near the foot of the mountain and explained to him the food robbery in Funiu Mountain. After hearing this, Ruan Liang expressed his willingness to go up the mountain with Fu Tianpeng and ask for food and grass from his brother Zhao Baolong, the fire-eyed Suanni.
The three of them arrived at the foot of Funiu Mountain. Ruan Liang reported his name to the sentry guard. After the guard sent the message, the top of the mountain signaled that the three of them could go up the mountain. Arriving at the gate of Dazhai, the village leader Zhao Baolong followed the second village leader Purple Face King Kong Chen Dayou out of the village to greet Ruan Liang and the others.
Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing followed Ruan Liang to the mountain stronghold, and Zhao Baolong ordered his men to slaughter the fat sheep to catch the wind for Ruan Liang. At this moment, Ruan Liang clasped his fists at Zhao Baolong and said to him: "Zhao Village Master, brother, I will go to the Three Treasures Hall today for nothing. There is something I want to ask you in person."
Zhao Baolong wiped his chin, laughed loudly at Ruan Liang and said, "Brother, you and I are close friends, so if you have anything to say, just say it."
Ruan Liang nodded and told Zhao Baolong that a batch of grain and grass to be sent to Tanzhou was robbed by you. This is the grain and grass of Marshal Yue Fei, the famous anti-gold general. He hopes that the leader of Zhao Village will be noble and return all these grain and grass.
After hearing these words, Zhao Baolong couldn't help but feel angry. He picked up a large bowl on the case and smashed it to pieces on the ground. Zhao Baolong opened his eyes wide and glanced at the people standing in the village. He said to everyone: "I have told you many times that although we are bandits, there are also thieves. We cannot invade the state and plunder the government, and we cannot harm the people. We only rob corrupt officials and the things of the Kingdom of Jin. I Do you think these words are just farts?"
After Zhao Baolong finished speaking, the whole village was silent. The minions standing below looked at me and I looked at you, but they didn't know much about this matter. When Zhao Baolong saw that no one stood up to clarify the matter, he felt very embarrassed in front of Ruan Liang, and his anger surged in his heart.
Ruan Liang persuaded Zhao Baolong to calm down. After Zhao Baolong calmed down his anger slightly, he immediately asked his confidants to find out what was the audacity to rob this batch of food and grass. The people sent by Zhao Baolong stood there hesitating and kept looking at Zhao Baolong.
Zhao Baolong saw that he was cowering and couldn't move, so he scolded him for why he didn't go out to do things. Before the man could speak, Chen Dayou, the leader of the second village, stood up and said to Zhao Baolong: "There is no need to check, I robbed the food and grass."
After Chen Dayou said this, Zhao Baolong and Ruan Liang both looked surprised. After Zhao Baolong learned the news, he asked Chen Dayou with dissatisfaction why he wanted to rob Yue Fei's food and grass. Chen Dayou replied with disdain: "Brother, this world is not owned by his old Zhao family. The emperors take turns. We have been nesting in this place where birds can't lay eggs for many years. I'm fed up with this anger. Now. The Kingdom of Jin is hoarding grain and grass, training soldiers, and will go south to attack the Song Dynasty at any time. At this time, we should save our strength and hoard more grain and grass so that we can take action when the news comes."
After Zhao Baolong heard what Chen Dayou said, he was immediately furious. He directly accused Chen Dayou of being shameless and saying such unkind and unjust words. Chen Dayou's eyes turned strangely. He sneered several times at Zhao Baolong and said to him: "Since I have done it, I will never stop doing it."
The two quarreled, and Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing exchanged glances. At this time, Chen Dayou secretly took out the plum blossom dart from his sleeve. He said to Zhao Baolong: "Anyone named Zhao, go to hell."
As he spoke, a ray of white light was seen rushing toward Zhao Baolong's choked throat. Ruan Liang and the others watched helplessly as the hidden weapon hit Zhao Baolong, but there was nothing they could do. When Zhao Baolong's life was hanging by a thread, Fu Tianpeng moved forward like a rabbit, using his agility to step forward and hold the plum blossom dart tightly in his hand.
Zhao Baolong, who broke out in a cold sweat, now recovered. He pulled out the large ring knife from his waist and said to Chen Dayou: "Chen Dayou, since you don't care about brotherhood, don't blame me for being ruthless."
After saying that, Zhao Baolong waved the large ring knife and strode towards Chen Dayou. Chen Dayou took off the iron hook and fought with Zhao Baolong. The two of them fought for their lives, and Mi Luo from the two sides below was also inextricably killed. Funiu Mountain fell into chaos. Ruan Liang also copied weapons and showed off his weapons to help Zhao Baolong in the battle.
At this time, there were waves of killing cries coming from the bottom of the mountain. As the sound approached, a sneer appeared on Chen Dayou's face. He told Zhao Baolong, stop fighting trapped beasts. Now Taoist Master is leading troops to come for reinforcements. You can't escape if you want to.
Zhao Baolong became more determined to get rid of the thieves when he saw that Chen Dayou had colluded with the court to rebel. He told Ruan Liang, Fu Tianpeng and others to escape from the path behind the mountain and that he would stay here and die together with Chen Dayou.
Zhao Xueqing said to Fu Tianpeng: "Brother Tianpeng, capture the thief as well as the king, and capture Chen Dayou."
Fu Tianpeng nodded, then jumped up, spread his wings like an eagle, and suddenly jumped in front of Chen Dayou. Then he wrapped plum blossoms in silk with one hand, clasped Chen Dayou's hand holding the iron hook, shook the iron hook off with one force, and then struck straight to the point with a palm strike. Chen Dayou was knocked several feet away, fell to the ground and died.
Seeing Chen Dayou being killed, the rebel minions put down their weapons and begged Zhao Baolong for forgiveness. Zhao Baolong raised his hand and told these minions that Chen Dayou should bear all the blame. From now on, the brothers must share the joys and sorrows and work hard to protect the people of the country.
The minions waved their weapons and responded in unison. The men guarding the stronghold rushed up the mountain in a hurry and told Zhao Baolong that Tao Zisi, Li Cheng and others had arrived halfway up the mountain with five thousand soldiers and horses. Zhao Baolong gritted his teeth and immediately ordered his men to go meet the enemy.
At this time, Zhao Xueqing stood up and said to Zhao Baolong: "Master Zhao, the rebels have just been exterminated in the village. It is a time when the morale of the army is unstable. If we fight hard with the enemy at this moment, not only will we not be able to retreat, but we will ruin the lives of our brothers in vain." life."
Zhao Baolong saw that Zhao Xueqing, a female prostitute, had such insight, and he admired her from the bottom of his heart. He cupped his fists and saluted Zhao Xueqing and said, "Xia Xia, in your opinion, how should we retreat from the enemy?"
Zhao Xueqing told Zhao Baolong that the top priority was to send elite brothers to guard the passages up the mountain, and to prepare more strong bows, crossbows, cannons, rocks and wood. When the enemy attacked the mountain, they would splash copper oil on the road up the mountain, making them unstable and unable to stand. go ahead. If someone is lucky enough to come forward, use the scratching hook to capture them in one fell swoop.
Zhao Baolong deeply agreed with this plan, and he immediately sent people to implement it. Halfway up the mountain, Tao Zisi was dressed in Tsing Yi, holding a Qingfeng sword, and kept chanting: "Infinite Life Buddha." Beside him, Li Cheng held a big sword in his hand and kept gesticulating backward with his hand to signal the soldiers. Attack the mountain quickly.
Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing followed Zhao Baolong and saw him waving a command flag, instructing his followers to counterattack. The mountain road was densely packed with soldiers holding halberds and swords. Zhao Baolong shouted "Let go". I saw dozens of barrels rolling down like a whirlwind. Wherever they went, the ground was covered with copper oil.
The feet of the attacking soldiers were covered with copper oil, and most of them could not stand stably. Countless people were killed and injured by falls. Tao Zisi ordered the soldiers to tie straw ropes to the soles of their shoes to prevent them from slipping and falling. Zhao Baolong saw that the thieves had launched a second round of offensive, and immediately ordered his men to use strong bows, crossbows, cannons, stones, and wood to throw them down the mountain.
Just hearing a few loud "boom, boom, boom" sounds, the rebels retreated like a tide after being attacked. Upon seeing this, Li Cheng rushed forward with a sword in hand. Zhao Baolong picked up the bow and arrow, pressed the button on the string, and with a "swish" sound, the arrow flew away and hit Li Cheng's left arm instantly.
Li Cheng reluctantly pulled out the broken arrow and cursed at the mountain. Huishan and Tao Zisi left Funiu Mountain with the remaining defeated soldiers. After Zhao Baolong successfully eliminated the rebellion, he held a banquet in honor of Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing. Zhao Baolong and Fu Tianpeng hit it off and became brothers.
After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food. Fu Tianpeng spoke from the bottom of his heart to Zhao Baolong, urging him to join the Yue Army and serve the court. Zhao Baolong immediately agreed and told Fu Tianpeng that after he had sorted out the internal affairs of the village, he would lead his team down the mountain. Fu Tianpeng and Ruan Liang were very happy to hear this, and the brothers drank heavily until late at night.
At dawn the next day, Zhao Baolong ordered his men to finish counting the grain and grass, and then personally led a team to escort them down the mountain. Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing said goodbye to Zhao Baolong. Before leaving, Fu Tianpeng told Zhao Baolong that Li Cheng was a capricious person and he must be careful that he would be detrimental to Funiu Mountain again. Zhao Baolong nodded and asked Fu Tianpeng to rest assured that he would definitely give strict instructions.
Fu Tianpeng also asked Ruan Liang to visit the Tianwang Gang when he had time. He was very worried about Yang Yi returning to Dongting Lake alone. Ruan Liang promised Fu Tianpeng that he would leave for the Tianwang Gang soon and would notify him in time if there was any news there.
After saying goodbye to everyone, Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing headed towards Tanzhou with the soldiers accompanying them to escort the grain and grass. Tao Zisi and Li Cheng, who had been defeated, had just gone to join Liu Yu, preparing to avenge today's attack.
