But this time, Cao Cheng and Zheng Kai seem to have miscalculated. Suddenly, Luo Yanqing roared angrily and jumped up, and the big man who made the gun saw it clearly, and hurriedly stabbed it away. Luo Yanqing clamped it under his armpit, and at this time, another person raised a knife and slashed. At the moment of extreme danger, Luo Yanqing turned around and snatched the gun forcibly, while also avoiding the big knife that came from the chopping knife.

"Hurry up and hack this man to death!!" Seeing this, Zheng Kai's face changed in fright, and he hurriedly shouted.

At this moment, suddenly there was a scream of surprise from the oblique stab behind him. Zheng Kai hurriedly looked back, and saw Yu Hualong riding a horse and raising a gun, killing suddenly. Zheng Kai's subordinates saw that Yu Hualong was so frightened that they didn't dare to intercept him, and fled one after another.

Zheng Kai!! How dare you rebel against me!! I will definitely break you into thousands of pieces to involve the hatred in my heart~~!! ”

Yu Hualong shouted loudly, Zheng Kai didn't know that Yu Hualong would suddenly kill like a ghost, he was so frightened that he shivered, and in a panic, he hurriedly turned his horse and fled, and seven or eight big men under his command supported him.

"Sinister villain, Hugh wants to escape!!" At this time, Luo Yanqing had already knocked another big man off his horse, and also took his mount, and the horse also chased after Zheng Kai. Between the lightning and flint, seeing Yu Hualong riding a gun, he first plunged into Zheng Kai's team, and the two big men who came to block were stabbed to death by Yu Hualong, and quickly forced Zheng Kai's side. Zheng Kai saw that at the moment of life and death, evil was born from the side of the gall, and he raised his knife to slash at Yu Hualong. Yu Hualong pulled out his gun and shook it open, and then swept the gun, and with a violent 'snap', Zheng Kai's head exploded in an instant, and blood flew wildly. Zheng Kai's subordinates around him saw that he was killed by Yu Hualong's shot, and they were all frightened, and they hurriedly ran away, and from time to time Luo Yanqing and his deployment came over, and those who couldn't escape all abandoned and surrendered, kneeling down and begging for mercy.

"Humph!! You brutes, you have treated you like flesh and blood, why have you betrayed me!? Yu Hualong's face was hideous and terrifying, and the gun was pointed at a leader under Zheng Kai. The leader turned pale with fright, and hurriedly kowtowed to admit his mistake, not daring to hide it, and told the truth.

It turned out that although Yu Hualong fell into the grass, he and his subordinates were some righteous bandits who fought against the government and the rich and scattered the stolen money to the people. And Zheng Kai is greedy for money, often filling his own pockets, lest his subordinates be exposed, naturally do not forget to give some benefits, the so-called upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked, over time, Zheng Kai's atmosphere is getting worse and worse, and everyone has private wealth to Zheng Kai is also desperate, willing to work for him.

When Yu Hualong heard this, his face suddenly turned pale and colorless, and he felt disheartened for a while. Luo Yanqing stared at him, and shouted angrily: "It's not a pity to wait for these ghostly guys to die!" Come on, kill me!! ”

Luo Yanqing shouted, and the brothers under his command immediately raised their blades one after another and responded with cheers.

"Brother Luo, slow down!" Yu Hualong suddenly came back to his senses and exclaimed.

"What!! Brother, you still want to leave these villains alive!? Luo shouted with wide eyes.

Yu Hualong sighed, then shook his head and said, "After all, they used to be my siblings, let them go." ”

"Brother, you are too naïve, if you let them go, you will go back to Kanglang Mountain to work for that thief! If that's the case, it's better to kill a hundred!! Luo Yanqing's eyes flashed fiercely. After hearing Zheng Kai's deployment, they hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy, saying that they would never go back to Kanglang Mountain. Yu Hualong immediately persuaded again, and Luo Yanqing agreed. Then Yu and Luo discussed for a while and decided to go back to Xiaozhai first and wait and see what happened.

A few days later, it was said that Yue Fei and Cao Rong each led their troops and horses back and killed them again at the foot of Kanglang Mountain. At the moment, it was not known that Yu Hualong and Luo Yanqing knew where to lead the remnants.

Yue Fei and Cao Rong couldn't help but be overjoyed when they heard it. Cao Rong even helped Daxiao and said: "General Yue is really like a god, how did you expect that Kanglang Mountain would be chaotic?" ”

It turned out that the bandits were defending the cottage that day, and it was difficult for the officers and soldiers to attack, and it was when there was nothing to be done, Yue Fei and Cao Rong taught the plan, saying that if the army was withdrawn decisively, the bandits thought it was a plan, and they did not dare to chase after it at first. When it is determined that the two armies will retreat far away and return by different routes, they will wake up and regret it, and they will want to chase and kill each of them with their pursuers. When the time comes, you can prepare first, give it a head-on attack, kill it to the fullest, and then chase it with victory, and when you return to Kanglang Mountain, the bandits will have civil strife, even if it is easy to break through the cottage.

When Yue Fei heard the question, he bowed slightly, and said with a smile: "I have fought a lot with that Cao Cheng in Dawang Mountain, and I know that this person is ambitious and hypocritical. At that time, although he and Yu Hualong were fine, I expected that he would not be resigned to others, and sooner or later he would make a move. And the previous Yu Hualong because of our officers and soldiers fighting, repeatedly lost his soldiers and horses, not only lost his prestige, but also greatly reduced his shili in the mountains. If Cao Cheng wants to seize power, when Yu Hualong leads his troops away, it is the best time. ”

Cao Rong was obedient, his eyes widened, and he thought about it for a while, and found that Yue Fei was clearly organized, and every sentence was reasonable, and he couldn't help but sigh: "General Yue is really powerful, it seems that the matter of outwitting the 100,000 thieves and bandits in Dawang Mountain is not a lie." ”

Yue Fei's humble background really made Cao Rong, who was born in a big family, look down on him. But this time, Yue Fei used his skills to impress Cao Rong and impress.

General Cao praised it. At present, Kang Langshan has just changed its new owner, and there are no two fierce generals, Yu Hualong and Luo Yanqing, just relying on that Cao Cheng, even if he stubbornly defends the cottage, he is just stubbornly resisting. At the same time, there must be a lot of dissatisfaction under the command of Yu Hualong, but when he sees the danger, not only will he not work hard for Cao Cheng, but he is likely to take the opportunity to defect, because of this, within three days, he will be able to break through Kanglang Mountain. Yue Feipeng's eyes were shining, and he was full of energy. Cao Rong was overjoyed when he heard this, and when he was about to speak, someone suddenly came to report from outside the tent. Yue Fei was then invited. Suddenly, He Yuanqing's figure appeared in the tent. Cao Rong couldn't help but change his face when he saw it, and snorted coldly.

But Yue Fei had already learned that the two of them had a holiday earlier. Yue Fei has always been fair and strict, and at that time, in terms of sentiment, it must have been He Yuanqing. And if you judge things by military discipline, He Yuanqing is hurting people after all. Yue Fei learned that he had appeased He Yuanqing first, and this summoning He Yuanqing was also to mediate his holiday with Cao Rong.

"General Cao, my subordinates not only offended you that day, but also injured your subordinates. This is indeed his mistake, and Yue is here to make amends to you for him. Yue Fei said, bowed, and bowed. Cao Rong couldn't help but change his complexion, and hurriedly supported Yue Fei, Yue Fei was like this, which made him lose his temper for a while. He Yuanqing saw that Yue Fei, as a general, actually made amends for himself, and his heart was moved, so he quickly knelt down on one knee and shouted: "General Cao, I am a rough man and don't understand military discipline, if you want to punish me, punish me!" It has nothing to do with my family general!! ”

"Hey! Brother He, get up! When Cao Rong saw it, he hurriedly helped He Yuanqing up, and then let out a long sigh and sighed: "It was indeed my subordinates who fought for merit that day, and they were suspected of indiscriminately killing prisoners. And I knew this, but I didn't find out the facts, so I drank you first, brother, and I was also suspected of protecting my shortcomings. Rest assured, brother, when I find out about this, I will make the subordinates who killed the captives indiscriminately make amends to you, and those innocent who died in vain, as long as they have a small family, I will pay a pension, how about that? ”

When He Yuanqing heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly said respectfully: "General Cao is righteous." It would be great to be relieved of the crimes, so that the families of the innocent captives who died innocently could receive pensions, and at least these orphans and widows would not starve to death. ”

At this point, under Yue Fei's mediation, He Yuanqing regained his spirit and made up his mind to follow Yue Fei in this life, never give up, and never waver again. And Cao Rong was under the influence of Yue Fei, and the lofty posture of the big family seemed to have been restrained.

That night, both armies rested early in the morning, recuperated and prepared to march tomorrow and slaughter Kanglang Mountain.

The next day, Yue Fei and Cao Rong's armies had just arrived at the foot of Kanglang Mountain, and suddenly received an urgent order from the Qingzhou government, saying that Cao Cheng had changed his mind and had broken the Yuhualong Department a few days ago, and then persuaded the bandits on the mountain to surrender to the government, and ordered Yue Fei and Cao Rong to get this order and withdraw the troops on the same day, so as not to hurt the innocent in vain.

Yue Fei listened to the order, and couldn't help but feel angry, knowing that Cao Cheng was such a traitor, he would never be willing to take refuge in the imperial court, and he would inevitably rebel in the future, if he didn't eradicate him as soon as possible, he would become a trouble, so he hurriedly discussed with Cao Rong. How do you know that Cao Rong received the military order, and he did not have any objections, and he had taught his troops to prepare for withdrawal.

"General Cao! Cao Cheng is by no means a young man, he is just a moment of despair, before he took refuge in the imperial court, and over time his momentum will become greater, he will definitely make a comeback!! At that time, it will even be even greater than the 100,000 bandits of Dawang Mountain. What can I do!? I saw Yue Fei rushing into Cao Rong's tent and said sharply.

Cao Rong listened, sighed lightly, shook his head and said: "General Yue is too careful, the court is so arranged, naturally there is a reason for the court, we are ministers, we can only act according to orders, not much." The so-called food of the king, the matter of loyalty to the king, is the supreme principle of the ministers for thousands of years. ”

Yue Fei's face changed when he heard this, and he said hurriedly: "What General Cao said is indeed a good word. But now that the court is in charge, it is obvious that someone is secretly making trouble, is it possible that we must be willing to accept it, so that Cao Cheng's scourge can be tolerated!? ”

"Yue Fei, you are presumptuous!! You're just a petty official, when will it be your turn to discuss the affairs of the court!! "Cao Rong is not Liu Tao, this time I heard Yue Fei's 'rebellious words', I couldn't help but be shocked, and I was angry. Yue Fei's body was shocked, as if he didn't expect Cao Rong to change color, and when he was about to say more, he was shouted by Cao Rong and drove him out of the tent. Yue Fei saw that Cao Rong had no intention of admonishing him, so he had to turn back and return. After a while, Cao Rong heard the news from outside, saying that Yue Fei had left, and the anger on his face slowly withdrew, and sighed: "Although this son has all kinds of skills, he doesn't know how to deal with people, and he is so ignorant and arrogant, he will cause trouble sooner or later." It's a pity, it's a pity. I originally wanted to have a deep friendship with him, and maybe I could bring my Cao family with me in the future, but now it seems that it is better to have less to do with him. ”

This is the current situation of the last Northern Song Dynasty, loyal and worried about state affairs, want to eradicate the traitors, maintain justice and peace, dare to oppose those traitors who secretly make it convenient for the traitors, and admonish the court, but they have become ignorant and arrogant, and they are ridiculed or shouted angrily, lest they be affected, it is no wonder that in the Northern Song Dynasty, it is clear that it has reached the autumn of critical survival, and it is the time when the heroes of the world rise up, but there are still fewer loyal and good, and more traitors.

A few days later, Cao Rong officially began to withdraw his troops. Although Yue Fei did not dare in his heart, he did not dare to disobey the order of the imperial court and ordered the withdrawal of the army.

On the other side, Cao Cheng couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard that the officers and soldiers had finally withdrawn. It turned out that Cao Cheng had sent someone to secretly contact Taichangqing Liang Chao earlier. And Cao Cheng has been dominating Dawang Mountain for many years, and his private wealth is not only hidden in Dawang Mountain, but even has a lot of real estate in Bianjing. Liang Chao and Cao Cheng have always had dealings, and the two of them take their own interests, which can be regarded as a seamless cooperation. This time Liang Chao got the benefits, and he didn't forget to do things, and quickly persuaded Cai Jing, got the approval of Zhao Ji, the faint king, and issued a holy decree.

Cao Cheng also learned to be smart this time, and when Yue Fei withdrew a hundred miles away, he immediately secretly ordered the brothers in the mountains to prepare.
