    The night gradually fell.  Outside the Chen family manor, bonfires were rising all over the mountains and plains.  The ice surface of the Hutuo River reflects the light of the bonfire, which is strangely beautiful.  Within the Chen family manor, all the villagers and villagers who were men were sent to the courtyard wall.  Wrapped up, he stared blankly at everything in front of him.  [.] Since becoming a steward, no one has been in the mood to appreciate the so-called beautiful scenery in front of them.  It was just a chilling discovery that at night, more and more bonfires were added.  I don't know how many refugees came over again and gathered outside the manor.  The villages inhabited by tenant farmers in the four fields also caught fire.  Every family protects each other, nervously watching the bonfires all over the mountains and plains.  The refugees are gathering more and more, which has made everyone extremely afraid.  So many half-starved and half-fed refugees gathered in the cold wind. If something went wrong, there would be chaos.  These thousands of people can drown everything around them in the blink of an eye!  At this time, the steward of the Chen family manor was also wrapped in several layers of Houhou leather clothes, temporarily acting as armor.  There is also a knife in the waist.  I moved a Hu bed and sat down on the wall of the village. Although there were charcoal stoves around for warmth, I couldn't help shivering on the Hu bed, and my upper and lower teeth chattered.  I don¡¯t know if it¡¯s the cold or the fear.  Suddenly there was the sound of horse hooves outside, and everyone's hair stood on end.  An old man named Zhuang Ke let out a strange cry, dropped his spear, and jumped in from the wall of the village.  It fell to the ground with a crash.  No one was in the mood to care whether he fell almost to death, and everyone looked nervously at the sound of horse hooves.  A banker holding an ox-horn bow softened his hand and shot out an arrow with a whoosh.  It's soft and biased, and the cold wind blows at night.  Don't know where it went.  The steward jumped up and his voice changed the tone: "Don't shoot the arrows!" There was also a corresponding voice from below, and he shouted: "Don't shoot the arrows" Everyone on the wall of the village was crowded.  I was stunned for a moment, this voice sounded so familiar!  But he is not the most courageous person in the village.  The voices of the two best dealers?  In the blink of an eye, Lai Qi ran all the way to the area illuminated by the lights on the village wall.  But they were five or six knights.  He also led two horses, and immediately carried two Zhuangke with their hands tied and their buttocks raised to the sky. His face turned green.  But it was the people from the village who were sent to Fanzhi County and Taiyuan Prefecture after dark!  The soldier on the horse was calm and controlled the horse to stop.  Although wearing armor.  But he had no sword in his bare hands.  He is the agile soldier in Shenwu's ever-victorious army.  A man who looked like a young officer with sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes smiled and cursed at the wall of the village: "They say that the people east of the river are tough and tough, just like us on the roads in Yandi and Shaanxi, but this arrow hit the village well! This little bird  "Why do you use bows and arrows like this? I'll teach you how to use them someday!" Everyone around looked at the steward, but he couldn't say a word.  The messengers were intercepted.  The road was blocked by heavy snow, and there was no communication.  Even if someone comes.  Presumably they were also driven away by the Shenwu Changsheng Army.  Now the area around Chen Family Manor is firmly sealed!  In desperation, the sound of upper teeth tapping against lower teeth became twice as loud in this cold night.  The young officer signaled, and several sergeants jumped off their horses and untied the two bankers.  Broken sacks were thrown outside the village.  Also tie up the two horses.  The young officer smiled again and said: "There are so many refugees out there, and there must be some who are ruthless and want to cause trouble. We are gathered here, so we have to work harder to patrol and suppress. But we bumped into these two expensive people It's just that we have poor skills.  The two of them were thrown off their horses. If we hadn't stopped, they would have been buried in the snow, and we might not have been able to save them in time.  It¡¯s the second time. You can decide for yourself in your village!¡± After saying that, the young officer whistled and got on his horse.  His demeanor is extremely vigorous and agile.  Although he looks very young, he is probably not even twenty years old yet.  This magnanimity already has the qualifications of a brave general in a hundred battles.  Everyone in the village secretly smacked their lips. In this divine and ever-victorious army, all the young soldiers who looked like ten generals looked extremely brave.  This army horse.  It is truly an invincible army!  What good can be gained by holding on with this army and horse?  The manager of the village has made a fortune every year, and he can hold on here to the end.  Even if we, the bankers, can show some authority to the tenants in the fields, the year will be over.  It's just about ten to the waist.  Why bother to stay with me?  A good-faith banker travels long distances to sell grain, collect horses, and protect the village.  People have some scenes from all over the world.  Immediately he wanted to make friends and couldn't help shouting: "What do you call this military master?" The young officer immediately turned around and controlled the mount with just his feet: "I am Xiangzhou Yang Zaixing! Zhuang!  Zhongliang, the text belongs to the Zhang family, just let him go to the Hedong Road Transport Envoy to pay the bill. We have no food, but we can't kill so many people!The power is!  " Yang Zaixing, one of the invincible military generals passed down through the ages, was only nineteen years old at this time. During the Battle of Yan, he enlisted as a warrior in Hebei Province at the age of sixteen. He did not win any battles and did not achieve any achievements. After the Battle of Yan, he did not win any battles.  , Shenwu Changsheng Army rotated south, and Hebei dare warriors were demobilized. After learning that Yue Fei, Wang Guitanghuai, Zhang Xianniu Gao and others came forward, many people went to Shenwu Changsheng Army to host Yue Fei.  Those who are capable and capable can be found in the army. Yang Zaixing is one of them. Whenever he has the opportunity, he can stand out.  The Shenwu Changsheng Army is a new army, and it doesn't have much accumulation of old things. At this time, if you have the ability, you can get ahead in the army. When you go north to Hedong, you have already received a position as a tenth general in the front camp of the Zuoxiang First Army.  He was in charge of a total of five cavalry. Even Xiao Yan didn't notice that there was such a future brave general in Shenwu's ever-victorious army. At this moment, Yang Zaixing was full of energy. (There are several theories about where Yang Zaixing is from.  Some say that Jiangxi's ancestral home is Xiangzhou, Henan, and some even say that Cao Cheng is a bandit in Runan, and Yang Zaixing has already gone to Runan as one of his subordinates.  That. This book arranges him as a warrior who was recruited from Xiangzhou. After being dispersed, there were many Jurchen warriors who came from the army, and they became the main body of the rebel army in Hebei.  He was recruited and used by Zongze and brought out quite a few influential figures. Yang Zaixing was a daredevil, so it was considered a reasonable story - Oscar press) The steward had not noticed that the banker next to him was chatting with Yang Zaixing, and he was just sitting on the bed.  Muttered to himself: "What's going on here?  What's wrong with this?  ¡± ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  ~~~~~~~~ In the icy cold wind, the sky gradually became brighter. The bonfires were extinguished one after another. The refugees who had been sitting around to keep warm last night slowly stood up and stretched their frozen muscles.  The Chang Sheng Army arrived here, and at least they chose those who seemed to be relatively strong, either staying near Yanmen Pass, or planning to head south to the Daizhou Camp.  With food in their stomachs, they were more or less full than when they were suffering in the north. Their vitality was stronger and they could survive the whole night by lighting a fire.  There are a few reasons why the refugees did not freeze when they advanced and retreated, and they did not rely on the crowds to plunder them.  He was the leader of the team, either a strong man who had been working as a slave at Yanmen Pass for several months, or simply a black soldier from Yunnei Province newly recruited by the Shenwu Changsheng Army.  , so natural. There is nothing unsightly about them. Most of them are old, weak, women and children. These strong men naturally take the leadership when advancing and retreating, so they look so honest.  , and did not become a disaster for the place. As the sky gradually became brighter, these refugees looked around and were surprised to find that the number of soldiers of the Shenwu Changsheng Army who had been not far away from them had increased to almost a commanding force, but they retreated a little further.  The soldiers who were standing between them and the manor and fort suddenly got out of the way, although there had been some commotion for a while.  Food was distributed. But it was cold outside. The dry food given out when we arrived had been eaten up last night. The leader had already informed us that there were not many food mountains.  With this, we can get through this winter no matter what! We are not afraid of death in attacking the stronghold. There is no food in the winter, and the walls of the dock are not attacking each other. They are old and weak, and they can follow the ants even with a stick.  Even if you climb the wall of the village, you can still stand and shout. What's the point of living in such troubled times? When the crowd was getting a little commotion, the stronger group of refugees started shouting: "Open the village."  Open the stockade!  " With a shout, everyone responded. The refugees all jumped up from the scattered bonfires. They shouted at the top of their lungs. Those who had a stick in their hands waved it. Those who didn't have a stick picked up stones.  Among the crowd of mostly strong men, there were also spears and short knives. There were also a few ladders that were tied up at some time. This equipment was not even close to the ants.  The manor in front of us is less than ten feet high and the ditch is shallow. After all, this is the Song Dynasty.within the territory.  No matter how good the Wubi Fort Village is, it will not be able to run a high city and a deep pond.  The most important thing is this manor.  There are only a hundred or so dealers who can fight with troops.  Even the three heads and six arms cannot protect it.  The number of refugees who came one after another yesterday and are still coming along the Hutuo River to join us now exceeds 3,000 or 4,000!  Even if you take a ladder and pour it in, it will still be poured into the manor.  Hundreds of lives were lost, and even the refugees themselves didn¡¯t care!  The crowd's commotion began to spread in all directions, and the roar became louder and louder.  Those able-bodied people had already moved forward, and the large group of refugees staggered to keep up with them.  At first, these shouts seemed a bit disorganized, but finally they turned into one voice: "Open the stockade! Open the stockade!" At this moment, everyone on the wall of the stockade was as pale as paper.  The steward couldn't even sit still on the bed. He wanted to stand up but couldn't use his legs.  It was the two bankers who pulled him up.  The steward leaned on them.  I felt like I was about to pee.  In previous years, the manor had not encountered troubles, tenant disputes, or bandits.  What¡¯s remarkable is the scale of hundreds of people.  When I was in the village, I thought that Fanzhi County was just around the corner.  I just feel as safe as Mount Tai.  The tenants are making trouble.  It won't be to the point of fighting to the death.  They are also afraid of the official authority of the imperial court.  It is most difficult for rogue bandits to sacrifice their lives for the sake of wealth.  A few tens of coins, a few stones of food, and a sheep might be spent.  Thousands of hungry people with red eyes were approaching from all over the mountains and plains.  The old and weak man grabbed a stone and struggled forward.  It looked like thousands of people were risking their lives here.  This feeling is so cold that it reaches your bones.  But it has never been encountered before!  Although Hedong Road is known as a border area, the folk customs are strong.  But there is still a huge difference from the people in the Yunnan states who have been struggling with life and death every day for the past two years.  The fight here is either for wealth or anger.  The refugees from various states in Yunnan are fighting for the lives of thousands of people!  Looking out from the wall of the village.  You can even see villages where tenant farmers live together.  Outside the village, hundreds of soldiers were watching indifferently, either on or under their horses.  He is fully armored and has sharp weapons in his hands.  With good eyesight, you can still see the tail feathers of the arrows in these soldiers' bags trembling in the wind.  The horses are coming. The soldiers on horseback can disperse these thousands of refugees in no time.  But they remained motionless.  In the village, the tenant farmers also understood that the Chen Family Manor was in trouble today, but they were safe and sound.  They were all there to watch the fun.  The rooftops were packed with people.  There were too many land annexations on Hedong Road¡ªor in other words, there were too many land annexations in the Song Dynasty.  The people in the heart of the Song Dynasty could still make a living by relying on the prosperous commerce at this time.  Living a pretty good life.  On the east side of the river, apart from the hard work of selling tea, horses, and salt, they also went to places where there was chaos and chaos, and gambled for their lives.  Where is the business?  The people were digging in the soil for food.  The irrigated land in the Hutuo Valley belongs to the Chen family.  To rent a house, you have to pay more than half the rent.  You still have to eat the power of this steward.  This steward is now as weak as anything, and he has bullied men and dominated women more than once.  If you don¡¯t plant the Chen family¡¯s land, you have to plant it on the slopes. Carrying water will make you stinky.  There are many rocks and thin soil, and there are still officials who want to be promoted.  It was even more unbearable to endure it.  Everyone could only endure and continue to share the Chen family's farmland.  Those who sold horses, grain, and salt had to prepare their own grain to serve as laborers.  After suffering a great deal, you may even be in danger of your life, and you can hardly see anyone with even a small amount of money.  Seeing that the steward was in bad luck today, even though the tenants knew it was unethical, they couldn't help but feel a little gloating about his misfortune.  ??Even if it¡¯s just thinking about the feelings of the hometown.  I don¡¯t want to be deceived by outsiders.  With such momentum at this time, who would want to risk their lives to get involved?  Fortunately, these military lords kept everyone safe and stayed outside the village at night.  There was never any harassment or extortion.  It can be considered a blessing among everyone's misfortunes.  At this time, just watch the excitement.  On a slightly higher ground outside the village, Liu Baozhong, surrounded by his guards, looked at everything in front of him with a cold face.  After a long while, he shook his head: "If the imperial court hadn't treated us poorly, why would this have happened? These refugees are working hard to survive, and we are just trying to survive In the final analysis, if the Western Army had been fooled by the imperial court like this  , guarding the border in the wilderness with no food or pay, not to mention a reward before the battle. I only want to wait for your own army to rebel! The Western Army has been rebelling for decades!  Once!" "Perhaps Yue Fei still has some knots in his heart and just feels a little ashamed of his true nature.  A few generals also felt that it was a bit too much.  For most of the officers and soldiers in the Shenwu Evervictorious Army like Liu Baozhong, they feel completely justified.  The military ministers of the Song Dynasty were subservient to the civil servants, and their status was far different.  But there is a default premise.  We work hard, we are cowardly.  The money and food rewards that should be given should be generous.  Those who deserve military merit must be rewarded heavily.  Normally, it is most difficult for a military official to get promoted, which happens every nine years.  But if you have military merit, it is common for you to be transferred several times at once.  This was also the beginning of the founding of the Song Dynasty. Due to the changing times, the military ministers group had to turn to theAfter the ministerial group handed over the power of control.  The unspoken rules tacitly accepted by both parties.  After more than a hundred years, the custom has become an ancestral system rather than an ancestral system.  There is no need to mention the Imperial Guards. After all, they do not go to war.  Stationing near Bianliang, the most prosperous and prosperous place in the Song Dynasty, has many conveniences.  Moreover, they are more like ordinary people than soldiers, and they have other part-time jobs.  In total, the treatment is not necessarily bad.  And to put it more cruelly, do you dare to try to treat the generals of the Imperial Guard a little less?  It was they who exploited the soldiers and not the civil servants.  For groups like the Western Army that were always fighting hard on the front line, the Song Dynasty did not hesitate to use its entire national power to support the Shaanxi roads.  There has never been a shortage of money and food to reward military meritorious deeds.  Until the entire Song Dynasty was close to being brought down.  The Shenwu Ever-victorious Army has the merits of an expedition to destroy a country, but it suffered like this.  It really touched the bottom line of military officials in this era.  The Western Army and even the Yongning Army led by Wang Zhenma Kuo felt sad that the rabbit was dead and the fox was dead.  There is also a turbulent and gloomy atmosphere in the Shenwu Evervictorious Army.  Xiao Yan took advantage of this to tightly hold the Shenwu Changsheng Army in his hands.  As the basis for his future advancement.  How can the ever-victorious army with divine force act so unscrupulously in this trip?  The vast majority of Shenwu Evervictorious Army wholeheartedly supports it.  Xiao Yan is also running towards the road of becoming a powerful minister in the future.  Fortunately, Xiao Yan can keep his true intentions. He will do whatever it takes to get the upper hand.  It is better to integrate all the resources of the Song Dynasty, which has been extremely weak due to institutional defects for hundreds of years, and save the world from collapse in a few years!  (In the Song Dynasty, institutional flaws accumulated, and finally the Jurchens destroyed the country with a single blow. The civil servant system certainly harmed the country a lot. The military system did have deep institutional flaws, which even accumulated to the point of being irreparable. One of them is because  The military authority of the Five Dynasties required heavy incentives to induce them to hand over power smoothly. The treatment of the army by the Song Dynasty was absolutely the best in all dynasties in China. It was already far ahead of the second place.  It exceeded the limit that this era could bear. This was the source of redundant troops and waste. Later, Zhu Chongba was born in Huaishang, so there was no such burden in the Ming Dynasty, whether it was military guards or soldiers.  Bo stayed there for many years and still persisted until the end. If it were the Song Dynasty, I don¡¯t know what the trouble would have been like - Oscar press) Liu Baozhong was quick to speak.  He expressed his thoughts without any scruples.  The generals and soldiers around me felt deeply moved by me.  Liu Baozhong's commanding style was also close to that of Han Shizhong. None of his men could be a coward in battle, but on weekdays he could not help laughing and talking, and there was no airs at all.  When most new groups are formed and upward, the atmosphere is almost like this.  "How can what Liu Yuhou said be wrong? After the defeat of Yan, the imperial court kicked us out. If it weren't for Xianmo's support, we would have starved to death halfway! Now there are still a few people serving the imperial court.  Guarding the border? The imperial court doesn't want to see us. We are naturally going to make a fuss in Bianliang. We have obeyed the orders and spared no effort in serving the imperial court!  How to treat them? The Western Army needs tens of millions of dollars and millions of dan of food every year, not to mention the land transfers in Shaanxi Province, which are all the financial resources of the Western Army.  Hengshan. We are so polite. The emperor is still hungry. What's more, our Shenwu Changsheng Army has the power to destroy the country!" "But if the Tatars go south, we will fight to the death.  Take a step back. We are not raised by our parents. What's wrong with us? The bigger the noise, the better!  "Sit still!" "There is no such thing as a horse being able to run and not eat grass! If a good man is bullied, then we can't be too good at destroying the country."  "It's so tame. But there is no end in sight!" "Look at the appearance of the refugees from Yunnan Province, if we hadn't fought to the death with the soldiers and horses of Yelu Dashi and Xiao Qian.  They are all pressed into Xiongzhou! Not to mention that there are more powerful Jurchen Tatars behind them. This is a tough fight. We, the Shenwu Changsheng Army, can only defeat them if we don't have them.  These Tatars are swarming all over Hebei, and the people in Hebei are still suffering like this. The imperial court still wants to torment our powerful and ever-victorious army. Let's see who will support them when the time comes. Xiao Xianmo will try his best to support us!  We are struggling to survive. When the time comes, those unworthy men in Bianliang will think of us today!" Yang Zaixing is also among these soldiers. He is young and handsome and has shown the potential of a future warrior.  Liu Baozhong liked brave men, so he valued Yang Zaixing very much.  He was also from Xiangzhou and lived in the same place as Yue Fei.  Although Yue Fei no longer cares about this.  But in this era where patriarchal ties are the most important, people below will naturally look at him differently.  Now he is in the Yidu Cavalry Army, Liu Baozhong has always been with him, and the most trustworthy person is Liu Baozhong.??In front of Liu Baozhong, Yang Zaixing was able to speak.  He turned his head and smiled brightly at Liu Baozhong, revealing white teeth that are rare for people from the middle and lower classes in this era: "Yuhou, why are you complaining now? As long as our Shenwu Ever-victorious Army can all come down, then we will be on the battlefield  See you. Fight to the death and fight with the Tatars. Will anyone talk nonsense now? Aren¡¯t we all coming from fighting? I will be the enemy in the future.  I'm just asking Yu Hou for a vanguard! And only if I die on the horse can others rush in front of me!" This is what Liu Baozhong likes to hear the most.  He laughed loudly at that moment, and while sitting on the horse, he reached out and patted Yang Zaixing's strong shoulder and back heavily: "Well said! Let's go back to the trouble. This is for self-protection. We can be regarded as righteous, but don't forget that we are established.  Ben! When we came out of Bianliang, Xianmo once said that he was reluctant to leave us as a strong army, so he was willing to risk the disapproval of the world and protect us until the end. If we see the enemy in the future, we will leave.  Needless to say. We don¡¯t want to see Xianmo at home, so we can go home and take care of our children! You guys, please be careful here!¡±  Hundreds of knights did not form too strict a formation.  Even on the horse, the postures are different.  Some people rely on their equestrian skills and even sit sideways on the saddle.  Not even a stirrup.  In such a cold weather, no one showed any signs of being chilly.  Just this kind of posture shows that he has seen life and death and is not afraid of fighting to the death.  In the face of any major enemy, just scold the guy and he will do it with a super strong military spirit.  This kind of magnanimity cannot be easily developed after several battles.  Among the Western Army, many have fought in battles.  However, no army in the Song Dynasty has the experience of a victorious army.  A single army can cover thousands of miles in the heart of the enemy.  One after another, powerful enemies lined up to attack.  Every battle is a fight to the death, and victory can only be won by gritting one's teeth.  Yelu Dashi, Xiao Qian.  Yin Keshu, these important ministers and generals who are famous all over the world, are either defeated or dead in their hands.  The most important thing is the achievement of this army in wiping out a country!  Any military team with such experience will have a bottom-line record.  If you don't hone your temperament to become a strong military, you will be useless.  Such a strong army can be encountered but not sought.  And for any strong army, peace will last for decades.  This kind of killing spirit that is immersed in the bones.  It gradually disappeared.  Xiao Yan was lucky, and Song Dynasty was lucky.  At this point in time, this army was miraculously tempered.  And it is still in this vigorous development stage.  This is Xiao Yan's greatest confidence, and this is also the reason why Xiao Yan must protect this army at all costs!  Now this military horse is becoming more and more like a private army that only Xiao Yan can control.  Place it on the east side of the river. The sky is high and the emperor is far away.  The court treated him poorly, but Xiao Yan used different channels to provide support.  The Shenwu Changsheng Army's actions already have a bit of unscrupulousness.  If it continues like this.  In the name of the warlord vassal, you can rest on your head.  Maybe some people in the Shenwu Ever Victorious Army will have a knot in their minds about this, and they might not be uneasy if they dream about it at midnight.  But Xiao Yan didn't have any psychological barriers to this.  He came through time not to establish a new Song Dynasty with perfect systems.  But I came here to cope with the calamity!  Without the strength firmly in your own hands, how can you talk about saving the fate?  And if you do not reward, the birds are worried about hiding.  Xiao Yan had to consider it.  Defeated the Jurchen Tatars and saved the Song Dynasty from destruction.  Then he would hand over power honestly and let the system of civil servants and officials of the Great Song Dynasty take care of themselves.  Yue Fei's Feng Bo Pavilion must not fall on my head, Xiao Yan!  Only from beginning to end, he could walk firmly on the path of being a powerful minister.  You also need to branch out and build your own family in this era.  Everything is inseparable from the power and strength in one's own hands!  Protect this civilization from falling into the hands of Hu Er.  Xiao Yan felt that he was worthy of traveling through time and worthy of his family's conscience.  As for the rest, he was a young reporter back then, not Lei Feng.  As the hero ages, his heart has already hardened.  As for whether it will be Huo Guang or Cao Cao in the future, we will tell when the time comes.  The internal and external layouts are now gradually starting to take shape.  In this cold winter day, the Shenwu Ever Victorious Army drove thousands of refugees away.  The original destiny of the Song Dynasty began to rush towards another road.  But at this moment, in the distance outside the Chen family manor, the more than 300 knights and warriors in the front camp of the first army on the left side of the Shenwu Ever-victorious Army, who seemed to be watching all this with a casual look, did not hear the wheel of history turning to another direction.  There was a loud noise as it was being crushed in one direction.  Generally speaking, the sound of the wheels of history turning can only be heard by conscientious young historians in later generations Watching these refugees struggling forward in the snow, acting for their own family.  It's just to survive.  Liu Baozhong couldn't help but muttered: "This is still Zhengdan"   Yes, before I knew it, it was already six years since Xuanhe of the Song Dynasty.
