Yang Yan took the war elephant as the main force in Shouchang, defeated Yan Changzhi, beheaded more than 8,000 people, and captured nearly 3,000 Jin troops. > then took advantage of the momentum to march and capture Chun'an, Shouchang, Jiande, Yanzhou and other places. Wanyan Changzhi was forced to retreat to Tonglu and divide the water.

Tonglu and Fenshui Yijing are located at the junction of Yanzhou and Lin'an Mansion, and if these two places are lost again, the Song army's troops will be able to point directly to Lin'an City. Therefore, Wanyan Changzhi was stationed along the Tonglu River to resist the Song army.

After Yang Yan took Yanzhou, he did not continue to march on the army, but assigned men and horses, so that Zhang Shiyan led the army to hold Yanzhou, Chun'an, Shouchang and other places, and he and Zhao Yueru personally led 20,000 horses and horses to go up the river in Zhejiang and attack Huizhou.

Sushi Lie Zhining, who was fighting with Cao Xun in Jiexiu County, was also taken aback when he learned of Wanyan Chang's defeat, and knew that Yang Yan had captured Huizhou with the scriptures and cut off his route from Huizhou to Lin'an Mansion directly. The Song army took advantage of the situation and successively captured Jiexiu, Yixian, Jixi and other places, and occupied the entire Huizhou.

Huizhou is in the west of Lin'an Mansion, but there are two big mountains of Dazhang Mountain and Baizhang Mountain separated from Lin'an Mansion, which are the places where Yang Yan and Zhao Yueru fled.

At this time, the two of them were stationed on the bank of Yangzhi Water, looking east at the ups and downs, the endless Dazhang Mountain, this time the old place revisited, naturally had a different taste. Recalling the whole process of escaping here at that time: a night of warmth in the cave, the two were honest, and then they knew that they loved each other deeply; Later, in order to avoid the pursuit of the four disciples under the Pufeng seat, he fought wits and courage with the four disciples; Until they met the lone arc idiot and so on, scene by scene appeared in the hearts of the two.

Although more than eight months have passed, and they have experienced all kinds of ups and downs during this time, now the two have come together in the end, and they are working hard to reorganize the Great Song Dynasty, and both of them can't help but feel ups and downs.

Zhao Yueru looked suspiciously at Dazhang Mountain in the distance, and sighed softly: "It's really an unforgettable experience, after we hit the Jin Bing, we will go through the place we experienced again, do you think it's okay." ”

Yang Yan nodded, and suddenly smiled: "And we must find the cave where we were hiding, it is best to spend another night in it, then it will be even better." ”

Zhao Yueru's face was slightly red, and she said coquettishly: "How can you always remember these things." ”

Yang Yan said: "Because that night was so important to us. ”

Zhao Yueru remembered the warm and charming night spent in the cave in the dangerous environment at that time, and her heart couldn't help but give birth to infinite warmth and secrets. He lowered his head slightly and said softly, "You're right, it was indeed the most important day of my life. ”

Yang Yan smiled: "So you agree?" ”

Zhao Yueru's eyes wandered, and she smiled coquettishly: "But if it's still the same as then, you carry me all the way, then it's okay." ”

Both couldn't help but laugh.

Zhao Yueru said again: "I don't know where Dugu's predecessor is now, is he still in that small village, isn't he going to challenge Pufeng?" I don't think I'll be staying in that little village anymore. But now that Pu Feng has appeared, why is there no news of him. ”

Yang Yan smiled bitterly and said, "Senior Dugu is probably looking for a place to complete the final cultivation so as to challenge Pufeng, but when it comes to Pufeng, the person I am most concerned about now is him." ”

Zhao Yueru was slightly stunned and said, "What do you care about him?" ”

Yang Yan said: "Judging from the current situation, the Jin army's southern invasion will end in failure, and unless Wanyan Yong immediately gives up Lin'an and crosses the river to the north, I am at least sixty percent sure that the Jin army will be trapped in the Jiangnan region." Let Wan Yan Yong and Wan Yan Changzhi return to the north forever. But as long as there is Pufeng, the Jin army has a chance to turn over. He has a very high prestige in the eyes of the Jin people, like a god, as long as he ascends to the heights, the morale of the Jin army will inevitably rise. This is still secondly, Pu Feng's martial arts are too terrifying, if he really acts as an assassin, no matter who he wants to attack, I am afraid that he will not be able to escape his life. The two of us may have a good fight with Pu Feng, but we will never be his opponents. ”

Hearing him say this, Zhao Yueru also remembered the terrible nature of Pufeng, and couldn't help but feel palpitations, and said, "Didn't you say that Pufeng doesn't ask about the world?" When we were in Chengdu, he didn't care about Jin Jun's affairs, and after competing with us, he left Chengdu, and I don't think he would interfere with it. ”

Yang Yan shook his head and said, "It's true that he doesn't ask about the world, but that means that in general, what if the Jin Kingdom is at a critical point of life and death?" Will he still sit idly by? I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm afraid of what if, this time I sent troops, I left my grandfather and them, as well as your master and uncle, all of them in Tianlin Mansion, just to prevent Pufeng from really making a move, we can't pin our hopes on Pufeng himself. ”

When Zhao Yueru heard this, she couldn't help but feel up, and said, "There are people defending Tianlin Mansion, what should Si Guang do on the front line?" Except for the two of us, who can resist the general wind. ”

Yang Yan also smiled bitterly and said, "It's useless to think about this matter too much, you can only see the steps." Fortunately, it hasn't reached that point yet, and I don't think Pufeng will intervene for the time being. But the two of us must not be separated from now on, and we will have a hard time when we meet him. The other thing is to send someone to find Dugu's predecessor as soon as possible, if you can find Dugu's senior, you can contain Pufeng, then you don't have to be so careful. ”

Zhao Yueru was about to speak again, when suddenly there was a sound of horses' hooves behind her, and a soldier flew in and said, "Yang Shuai, Zhang Tongzhi of Yanzhou has sent an urgent military situation, please take a look." ”

Yang Yan took a look, and it turned out that Gao Zhen had sent it back, and the battle situation in Zhouzhou, Wenzhou, and at sea. After Li Gongzuo led the navy to defeat the Jin army's navy, because the firearms and arrows were almost exhausted, he did not continue to march to Qingyuan Mansion, and retreated to Dongtou Island in the Wenzhou sea area to be stationed and repaired. Fortunately, the Jin army's sailor was killed by the Song army, and hid in Dazhai and did not dare to come out again.

At this time, the logistics fleet of the Song army arrived by Jingjing, bringing not only sufficient weapons, but also 20,000 soldiers. After being replenished, the Song army's fleet immediately regained its combat effectiveness, and landed at the Yongjia Salt Farm in Wenzhou, sending Bi Zaiyu, Liu Renxian, Zhang Xun, Xie Dong, and 30,000 Song troops to land.

After the Song army landed, Bi Zaiyu immediately led the army to Wenzhou. At this time, the focus of the Jin army was on the front line of Huizhou to resist Yang Yan's attack, and the defense in Wenzhou was already very weak, and Bi Zaiyu captured Wenzhou without much effort. Subsequently, the Song army successively captured Ruian, Pingyang, Yueqing and other places, and occupied the entire territory of Wenzhou.

At this time, Bai Yanjing, who was fighting with Gao Zhen in Chuzhou, learned that Wanyan Changzhi was defeated in Yanzhou, and the Song army landed ashore in Wenzhou, and he did not dare to continue the battle with the Song army, and the army retreated to Wuzhou and Taizhou. Gao Zhen took advantage of the situation to occupy Chuzhou, and joined forces with Bi Zaiyu, and Li Gongzuo's army was also stationed on Dongtou Island, and now they are all waiting for Yang Yan's next arrangement.

Yang Yan took the official document and looked at it, and couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said, "Great." As he spoke, he handed the battle report to Zhao Yueru and asked her

After Zhao Yueru read it, she was also very happy, and now the Song army has won on all fronts in the south of the Yangtze River, and has opened up the sea mouth and controlled the sea with the warp. It is completely possible to go hand in hand with land and water, and go straight to Lin'an.

Yang Yan saw that she had finished reading it, and said, "Now let's go back to Huizhou first and arrange the next step of the march." ”

Zhao Yueru nodded, and was about to speak again, when suddenly her heart moved, as if she sensed something, and then looked at Yang Yan, and found that Yang Yan also seemed to have the same feeling, and suddenly said, "Do you feel it too?" ”

Yang Yan nodded and said softly: "Yes, it's the same as when I was in Chengdu at that time." ”

Zhao Yueru's face was solemn, and she said, "I didn't expect him to really make a move!" What are we going to do? ”

Yang Yan said: "Even if you come, you can't hide." Suddenly, he turned around and said loudly: "The whole army obeys the order, and stands still, waiting for my order." Ran He and Zhao Yueru urged the war horses and galloped north along the water of Yang.

After turning over two dirt slopes, I saw that on the bank of Jiangzhu in front of me, there was a person with a hat on his head, wearing a coat, and was sitting alone fishing. The two glanced at each other, and they couldn't help the joy in their hearts, turned over and dismounted together, came to the man's approach, and said in unison: "Dugu senior." ”

The man laughed and said, "It's so far away, you can actually sense me with the scriptures." It seems that the two of you are making such a fast progress! Saying that, looking back, it was really the lonely idiot they had been looking forward to.

Yang Yan also smiled: "This is all the guidance of the seniors at the beginning, we are looking for seniors, I don't want to meet seniors here, it's such a coincidence." ”

Dugu put down the fishing rod and said with a smile: "Your teachers are all the top masters in the rivers and lakes, and with your current martial arts, the four disciples of Pufeng can't do anything to you together, what's the matter with me?" ”

At this time, Yang Yan found that he and Zhao Yueru were both dressed in military uniforms. couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, and said: "The last time we met, because of the special situation, we didn't tell our true identities to our seniors, and asked our seniors not to be surprised." ”

Dugu Idiot smiled again: "What's so strange about this, I saw you at the beginning, and I knew you, and now it's in front of me, it's still you, that's enough, as for your true identity, what does it matter if you tell me or not?" Even if you are a member of the first rank, what is the use of the emperor's relatives and me? ”

When the two of them heard this, they couldn't help but admire Dugu's open-mindedness and arrogance, just this mind, when there is also Pu Feng worthy of his opponent today. Zhao Yueru said at this time: "But we have one thing to tell our seniors, we have fought with Master Pufeng. ”

Dugu was stunned when he heard this, his body trembled slightly, and his eyes emitted a scorching light, in the whole world, I am afraid that only Pufeng alone can make this peerless swordsman moved, he immediately asked: "Tell me quickly, what is going on?" ”

Yang Yan and Zhao Yueru did not hide it at all, and told Dugu Idiot in detail about the ten-trick appointment between the two and Pu Feng from beginning to end. even told the true identities of the two and the journey to Sichuan.

After listening to this, Dugu Idiot also let out a long breath, and suddenly grabbed a long sword with a sheath from his side, put it in front of him, his eyes were full of joy, and laughed: "Okay, good, there are really people in this world who are worthy of my sword." Waiting for this day is too long. ”

Yang Yan's sword was nearly five feet long, almost the length of his own treasure sword, but it was only two inches wide including the sheath, so it was conceivable that this must be a slender sword. I don't know what it will be like to be cast from the hands of Dugu idiot.

At this time, Dugu Idiot smiled at the two of them again: "This time I want to thank you for telling me about this, as for the affairs of Song and Jin, although I don't want to ignore it, if you have something to ask me to help, even if you ask, who will let me fall in love with you two guys?" ”

Only then did Yang Yan tell him about his disturbance of Pufeng. After listening to it, Dugu said: "You don't have to worry about this, I can feel it, and the general wind has passed through Lin'an." If you are sorry for him, I can stay with you for a few days, and only after your war is over, and then we will have our competition. I don't think there will be any objections from Pufeng. Because Pufeng is not absolutely sure that he can win Dugu, so in this case, the decisive battle between the two should wait until after the end of the war, which should be an acceptable condition for both sides.

Yang Yan was excited in his heart, whether it was a lonely idiot or a common wind, although they were all detached from the world, they were not emotionless people.

Zhao Yueru bowed down with the scriptures fluttering and said, "Thank you seniors." ”

Dugu Idiot laughed and said: "This is not necessary, I have always acted casually in my life, as long as I see the right eye, I am willing to help him, no matter what it is." If you want to thank me, when you two get married in the future, just invite me to drink a glass of wine. ”

Yang Yan and Zhao Yueru glanced at each other, and they were very happy in their hearts. Yang Yan said: "Please come with us." ”

So, the three of them turned back to the Song army together. In fact, it took more than an hour to go this time, but the Song army was still waiting in place, and the appearance of the army did not change at all. When Yang Yan saw it, he couldn't help but feel quite proud in his heart, so much so that he lived up to his hard training.

When Yang Yan was about to order the whole army to return to Huizhou, Ling Xiang suddenly jumped out, knelt down in front of Dugu Idiot, and said in surprise and joy: "Master, why is it your old man?" ”

Yang Yan and Zhao Yueru were stunned, Dugu was actually Ling Xiang's master? It's a bit too coincidental. Dugu Idiot laughed loudly, pulled up Ling Xiang and said, "The world is really too small, everyone actually came together." ”

It turned out that when Ling Xiang was seventeen years old, he once went to Jiangnan to do business, and accidentally met a reclusive Dugu idiot by Jixi. Seeing his talent*, Dugu Idiot had a heart for love for materials for a while, and taught Ling Xiang ten days of swordsmanship, so that Ling Xiang's swordsmanship advanced. Although he did not try to apprentice, Ling Xiang regarded Dugu as a teacher. However, after the two parted, they didn't see each other again for several years, and Dugu Idiot didn't tell Ling Xiang his name at that time, so Ling Xiang didn't know that the stranger who passed on his swordsmanship was the sword demon Dugu Idiot who was famous in the rivers and lakes back then.

Ling Xiang asked Huang Mingxia to come to meet Dugu Idiot, and naturally everyone was happy. Yang Yan is worried that he has too much military affairs, and Zhao Yueru is not good at entertaining people, so he doesn't know how to arrange the food of Dugu Idiot, and now he is just pushing the boat down the river and letting Ling Xiang and Huang Mingxia serve Dugu Idiot.

After returning to Huizhou, Yang Yan immediately ordered Cao Xun to abandon Huizhou and immediately march to Chizhou and join forces with Meng Zongzheng to attack Taipingzhou. At the same time, he wrote a letter to Li Xianzhong, asking him to attack Jiankang together.
