The dream of a lonely hero

It is said that in the Houya of Tanzhou in the Liao Kingdom, the governor Wang was directing his subordinates to hurriedly collect gold and silver. Once upon a time, a military general in full armor broke into the government office. He was over fifty years old and had a gray beard. He shouted loudly:"Sir, please don't panic. When the soldiers come, they will block the water and cover it with earth. The general is willing to lead a brigade to repel the enemy invaders!"

Wang It seems to the governor that the person is Zuo Yanzhang, the military commander of the state. Zuo Yanzhang was an upright man and was originally trained by the Bazhou regiment in the Song Dynasty. He was mostly excluded by Wang Fangcai, the governor of Bazhou. More than ten years ago, Zhao Guangyi, the governor of Bazhou, was ordered to publicly inspect the military affairs of Bazhou on the border. Zuo Yanzhang refused to carry out Zhao Guangyi's random orders. Wang Fangcai, the governor of Bazhou, took the opportunity to slander Zuo Yanzhang and forced him to rebel. Zuo Yanzhang and his family joined the Liao Gang and were assigned to the Tanzhou regiment. Later, he was promoted to the governor of Tanzhou for his repeated achievements.

Prefect Wang said,"Don't talk in your sleep, Captain Zuo! How can Tanzhou's meager generals defeat the enemy?"

Zuo Yanzhang said,"I'll stay here for a day. If the general and his troops are defeated, the governor will not be able to do anything." Too late."

Governor Wang argued with him again, but couldn't win him over, so he had to ask him to try.

Zuo Yanzhang, the governor of Tanzhou, ordered eight thousand cavalry and went out with his three sons Zuo Chenglong, Zuo Chenghu, Zuo Chengba and his generals Zuo Moden, Du Hong, Deng Jia, Pei Qian, Liu Wan, etc. Guo welcomes the enemy. The three sons of Zuo Yanzhang are highly skilled in martial arts and extremely brave, and are known as the"Three Tigers of the Zuo Family". Traveling to Bailichuan, they met the first vanguard army of Shang Feng, deputy lieutenant Renyong and"Yuyong Junke". Baili River is as flat as a horse, and the horse army has an incomparable advantage over the infantry army."The brave soldier" Shang Feng, deputy pioneer Beizhou Jiedu Yuanhu, Wozhou Tuan Lianwu Yi,"the brave soldier" Ge Ba did not understand the art of war, and the"brave soldier" Fu Qian was born in the military, but he was not familiar with the art of war. I only scratch the surface of the art of war.

Both sides took control of their positions and set up their positions. In the Liao army's formation, a man on the left rode a tiger astride a yellow horse, wielding a Goulou Guyue Elephant Trunk Sword. He had a ginger face and no beard, and wore a golden helmet and purple war robe. He suddenly sat down on his horse and flew out of the formation, shouting:"Tan Zhou Zuo rides a tiger, who will die!" Ge Ba, the"valiant soldier" in the Song army's formation, slapped his horse, came to the front of the formation and said:"The front camp of the Great Song Dynasty has deployed the king of Jin to drive the deputy vanguard Ge Ba will take your dog's life!" He came to meet Zuo Chenghu with an iron-pointed steel gun in his hand. The two horses met and fought for seven or eight rounds, and Ge Ba was defeated. Zuo Yanzhang held a big sword in his hand. Zuo Chenglong led an army and horses to fight out from the left wing. Zuo Chengba led a group of soldiers and horses to fight out from the right wing. Zuo Yanzhang and Zuo Chenghu led the central army to rush in from the middle. Three soldiers and horses The massacre was overwhelming, like chopping melons and vegetables. The Song army was defeated and the people who were killed fell off their horses. Ge Ba, Yuan Hu, Wu Yi, Shang Feng, and Fu Gan didn't care about the lives of their soldiers. They whipped their whips and jumped on their horses to run for their lives in panic, trampling countless Song troops to death. It's true that one general is so incompetent that he kills thousands of troops. In less than an hour, 20,000 Song troops were almost killed. Zuo Yanzhang and the"Three Tigers of the Zuo Family" pursued him until they reached the mouth of the Snake Valley in Heifeng Mountain. The second line of vanguards Dai Xing, the Enzhou regiment commander Wang Lu, the Fanzhou regiment commander Zhu Yu, the"Cao Meng Wu Ben" Wang Neng, and the"Feng Meng Wu Ben" Zhang Xu's 20,000 infantry have not yet left the valley entrance. Sang Zan, Yuan Hu, Wu Yi, Shang Feng, and Fu Gan had their helmets crooked and scarred. They couldn't see the soldiers behind them. Before they could find out what was going on, they could only hear the sound of golden drums at the mouth of the valley, the sound of killing, and then the overwhelming sound. The Liao soldiers, led by Zuo and his son, attacked like a tsunami. Dai Xing, Wang Neng, and Zhang Xu hurriedly responded to the challenge. They could not resist for a moment and fled with their lives. The Snake Valley in Heifeng Mountain became a slaughterhouse for the Liao army to kill the Song army. Zuo Yanzhang led the Tanzhou soldiers and horses to pursue them for fifty miles out of the Snake Valley in Heifeng Mountain. When they came to Yemapo, they saw the Song Army's camp stretching for more than ten miles in front of them. It was getting late, so they set up camp and recharged their energy for fighting again tomorrow..

The two pioneers of the Song Army, Shang Feng and Dai Xing, were killed. Less than 200 of their 40,000 troops were killed. They returned to the main tent of Jin King Zhao Guangyi's army and knelt down to plead guilty. Zhao Guangyi originally wanted to regain the Youyun Sixteen Prefectures in one go and become famous for his achievements, but he never expected that the army would not be successful, and he would lose troops and generals. His lungs were about to explode, so he ordered the first deputy pioneers Beizhou Jiedu Yuanhu and Wozhou Regiment to practice martial arts. Yi was beheaded on the spot, and the second-line deputy vanguards Enzhou regiment commander Wang Lu and Fanzhou regiment commander Zhu Yu fled to Shamen Island. The next morning, King Zhao Guangyi of Jin led his generals and an army of 50,000 to set up a battle array at Yemapo, determined to kill all the soldiers and horses of Tanzhou, Liao State. In front of the Song army formation, Jin King Zhao Guangyi is dressed in military uniform, with a horse with a golden saddle and a white rabbit standing under the golden Qingluo umbrella. Gao Qiong and Wang Zhao are holding nine-tooth rake and three flaming crosses standing in front of the horse. Bazhou Dujian Wang Fangcai,"Sangzan, Yuanda, Chen Congbao,""Flower Sword King" Wang Haozhong,"Flower Spear Taisui" Wang Zhaoyu,"Golden Retriever Lion" Zhang Baoyang,"Double Hammer Competition Cao Zhang" Pei Zhongpu,"Eight-Armed King Kong""Li Jun,"Sai Yingbu" Fu Dun and Fu Sirang,"White Faced Tiger" Li Bin,"Hengjiang Iron Dragon" Geng Quanbin, Shang Feng, Ge Ba, Fu Qian, Dai Xing, Wang Neng, and Zhang Xu each rode with swords. The two sides are separated on the horse.

Look at Tanzhou Governor Zuo Yanzhang commanding Zuo Chenglong, Zuo Chenghu, Zuo Chengba, Mo Deng, Du Hong, Deng Jia, Pei Qian, Liu Wan and eight thousand cavalry to prepare for the battle. Zuo Chenglong He said to Zuo Yanzhang:"Father, this Zhao Guangyi is looking for death. He uses the conical formation of infantry against our conical formation of cavalry. The 50,000 soldiers of the poor Song Dynasty are going to give us a foothold.

Zuo Yanzhang laughed"haha","How can Zhao Guangyi know how to fight!" Don't rush to kill him, fight him first to rub off his energy.

Zuo Chenghu said:"Father, I will kill a few of my children to weaken his military power."" Just as he was about to fight his horse and go out into battle, he was stopped by Zuo Chengba.

Zuo Chengba said:"Second brother defeated the Song Army vanguard yesterday in Bailichuan. It's time for my younger brother to show his face today!"

Zuo Chenghu and Zuo Chengba were arguing. Mo Deng drove his horse forward and said,"You two major generals, don't argue anymore. Why kill a chicken with a butcher's knife? Kill a few of them later."Eager to achieve great results, before Zuo and his son could speak, they kicked the stirrups with their feet and danced with two swords, and came to the formation of the two armies.

Originally, Mo Deng and other Tanzhou generals were so frightened that they heard that the Song army was attacking Tanzhou with one hundred thousand soldiers. , bravely followed Zuo and his son out of the city to face the enemy. Unexpectedly, the Song army was so vulnerable, and he became more courageous.

Yuanda flew out from the Song army's formation, holding a four-edged iron sword. Yuanda returned to the Jin Dynasty. Wang Zhao Guangyi lived a very depressed life. His seventh brother, Yan Yun, and his second brother, Chen Xin, both had achieved fame. Putting aside their inferiority complex, Shang Feng, Ge Ba, Fu Qian, Dai Xing, Wang Neng, and Zhang Xu, the former members of the King of Jin, were very depressed. It was because he despised him who was born in Lulin. Today he must perform meritorious service in front of the battle to show them. One is to repay the kindness of the King of Jin, and the other is to kill Shang Feng, Ge Ba and others for their arrogance. Yuanda said secretly: Why is the Liao army in the battle? An empty horse ran out, and when the horse took a closer look, he found that there was another person on the horse. Mo Deng was less than five feet long, had a big mouth, a beard, and wore a helmet and armor.

Yuanda said:"This guy's fetal hair has not faded. , I have a lot of beard. Whose child comes to play here? Go home quickly so that your parents won’t worry! Morden was so angry that he yelled"Wow!" I am Tanzhou's real army Mo Deng, please tell me your name and die!

Yuanda said:"Haha!" The little rabbit jumped onto the shaft of the car - what a trick! Morden - Don't wait. When I see Grandpa Yuanda today, I don't want to wait to die, but I will die immediately!"Swinging his mace, Ben Moden hit the top door. Morden hurriedly parried with his two swords, and the two swords flew out with a"clang" sound. Yuanda quickly swept his mace"Danfeng Chaoyang" towards Morden's temples. Thanks to Mo Deng's short stature, he tilted his head and saved his head, but his ears were blown off. The two horses kicked off wrongly. Before Yuanda could circle the horse and fight Mo Deng again, two generals Du Hong and Du Hong flew out of the Liao army's formation. Deng Jia raised his sword and held his gun, and stopped Yuanda to fight. Yuanda had been holding back his anger for many days, and he was worried that he had nowhere to vent his anger. He used all his strength to fight against the two generals. Mo Deng watched Du Hong and Deng Jia fighting Yuanda. , hurriedly hit the horse and fled back to the main formation. Yuanda fought with Du Hong and Deng Jia for more than ten rounds, killing Deng Jia with one mace and wounding Du Hong. Yuanda won the first battle, one Liao general was killed and two were injured, and the Song army gained momentum. In great excitement, Zhao Guangyi hurriedly ordered his soldiers to beat drums to cheer. Yuanda was feeling proud. Liao general Zuo Chenghu came on Pegasus. He shouted,"Zuo Chenghu is coming." He held the Gou Tower, Gu Yue Elephant's trunk, and slashed at Yuanda.. Yuanda quickly used the"Laojun seals the door" double mace to block, which shocked his arms to numbness. The two horses stepped on each other, circled the horses and fought again. After fighting back and forth for more than ten rounds, Yuanda was defeated. In Song Dynasty, Yuanda was defeated. In the military formation, Li Bin, the"white-faced tiger", faced Zuo Chenghu with a phoenix-mouthed pear spear in his hand. He used both sword and spear. In the eighteenth round, Li Bin dragged his spear backwards and was defeated. Fu Dun, the general of the Song Dynasty,"Sai Yingbu" Fu Sirang faced Zuo Chenghu with the Santing Panmen Sword, but was defeated in less than twenty rounds. Song Dynasty General Geng Quanbin, the"Hengjiang Iron Dragon", lost to Zuo Chenghu with his Bagua Splitting Water Sword in twenty rounds. Zuo Chenghu lost in a row. The three generals of the Song Army were arrogant.

Gao Qiong, the"Gao Iron Tower" in the Song Army formation, said to Wang Zhao, the"Wang Tieshan":"These generals are too crazy! Brother, you protect the master, brother, I will beat him. Wang Zhao said:"Brother, don't worry, no one will harm the master while I'm here!""

Gao Qiong carried a nine-tooth nail and flew to the front of the two armies like a rake. Zuo Chenghu saw that the Song Army infantry general in front of him was special. He had a helmet on his head and no armor on his body. He was over ten feet tall, only half a head shorter than himself on the horse. He had a fat chest and a belly. He was carrying an iron rake. Are they fighting or farming? It seems that there is really no one in Zhao Guangyi's army, so he asked a farmer to come and die.

Zuo Chenghu said:"Hey! Farmers are so pitiful. Zhao Guangyi really doesn't treat farmers as human beings! It seems that my father made the right move by rebelling against the Song Dynasty. The Song Dynasty who farmed the land can't tolerate your surrender. Let's go to the Liao Kingdom. I'll give you two acres of land, a cow, and a kang head. Judging from your strength, your life will be good, and it won't be difficult to find a wife."

Gao Qiong said:"Haha! It's pitiful - there are more pitiful people than me. , are you pitiful?"

Zuo Chenghu said:"Who?"

Gao Qiong said:"Look at you riding on a horse and showing off your power, you have no brains at all, who - who? You don't have to ask, it's you!"

Zuo Chenghu was furious :"You ignorant fool, sign up to die!"

Gao Qiong said:"Ask me! My name is Grand Master."

Zuo Chenghu was stunned and said:"Grand Master! What is this name?"

Gao Qiong said happily:"Hey! Good grandson.! No matter what the name is, he is your eldest son!"

Zuo Chenghu was so angry that he raised his knife to chop Gao Qiong. Gao Qiong did not dodge or block. Seeing that Zuo Chenghu's sword was only half a foot away from his forehead, he suddenly swung the iron rake towards Zuo Chenghu and hugged Zuo Chenghu's head, as fast as lightning, and muttered the words"Rake the meat balls"". Zuo Chenghu had never seen anyone fighting like this. If you hit him, he would not block, but hit you instead. This was a life-threatening move. He couldn't risk his life, so he quickly drew back his sword to parry. The iron rake was just inches away from the sword, and his moves suddenly changed. He removed the rake head and offered the rake bolt, approaching Zuo Chenghu's eyes. Just listen to Gao Qiong say"eyeball-piercing". Zuo Chenghu dodged in a hurry. Gao Qiong's moves changed again. The iron rake ran quickly to the left and attacked the tiger's ribs, saying"pick the ribs". Zuo Chenghu hurriedly covered the frame with the knife in his palm. Gao Qiong's moves changed again, the rake head quickly ran towards Zuo Chenghu's temple and swept across it, chanting"Pull out the ears". Zuo Chenghu drew his knife and was unable to parry. He hurriedly ducked his head and lowered his head. He heard a"clang" sound as his helmet was knocked off, which gave him a headache and ringing in his ears. Zuo Chenghu was in shock. Gao Qiong quickly lowered his body, swept the tiger horse's legs to the left with his iron rake, and said"Build the horse's legs" in his mouth. Gao Qiong's five-rak move was so fast, as fast as lightning and powerful enough to carry a thousand pounds. Zuo Chenghu couldn't resist the fifth rake's"horse-building legs". The horse's front legs were cut off by Gao Qiong's nine-tooth nail rake and flew more than ten feet away."Plop" Zuo Chenghu was overturned and fell to the ground. Gao Qiong quickly picked up a nine-tooth rake and killed Zuo Chenghu. The soldiers of the Song Army beat drums to cheer and wave flags. Gao Qiong danced happily. Suddenly I heard a bell ringing, and a horse from the Liao army came galloping towards the formation. Gao Qiong saw this general on the horse. He had a fleshy face, huge eyes and fangs, and no beard on his chin. He wore a three-pronged golden crown on his head, with a pheasant tail flying high. He was wearing a pair of iron chain mail, lined with a Zaoluo robe, and a tight He is tied with armor; he has a green-maned horse under his crotch, and he holds a three-pointed, two-edged, four-orificed and eight-ring knife in his hand. Gao Qiong shouted:"Fan Nu, please tell me your name quickly, I will not kill the unknown ghost!"

Fan general was furious, glared and shouted:"A certain Zuo Chengba came to avenge my second brother, the barbarian took his life!"He raised his sword and struck Gao Qiong. Gao Qiong did not dodge or block, he picked up the nine-tooth rake and ran towards Zuo Chengba with his head in his arms. He muttered"rake up the meat balls", followed immediately by"stab the eyeballs""、"Remove ribs"、"Pick out ears"、""Build the horse's legs", as fast as thunder. Zuo Chengba hurriedly used his knife to dismantle it, faced each other, circled the horse and fought again. Gao Qiong said:"Okay!" Boy, you are still the first to be able to take up the role of Master."Zuo Chengba was eager for revenge. He didn't talk nonsense. He used his big sword to"cleave Huashan with force". Gao Qiong still had the same five moves of"raking up meat balls", followed by"piercing the eyeball"."、"Remove ribs"、"Pick out ears"、""Build the horse's legs." Zuo Cheng was so angry that he flew into a rage,"Wow! Barbarian took the life of his second brother in just these five moves, taking his life to take his life!"Gao Qiong raised the rake to engage in the battle. One on horseback, the other on foot. After eight rounds of fighting, Gao Qiong was defeated and dragged the nine-toothed rake away. Zuo Chengba pursued him."Wang Tieshan" in the Song Army's formation Wang Zhao held three flaming forks in his hand, intercepted Zuo Chengba and fought for seven or eight rounds, and was defeated back to his own formation.

In front of the Song army's formation, Zhao Guangyi, the king of Jin, under a purple umbrella, said:"This general is extremely brave, extraordinary." Peach Blossom Xiao Wenhou's Wang Rong can defeat him!"The brave military guest" Sangzan was dissatisfied after hearing this and thought: We who have followed His Highness for many years are not as good as the grass bandits who have just been recruited. He dismounted suddenly, raised his iron spear and pointed his steel spear, and faced Zuo Chengba. The battle failed, and his arm was injured by Zuo Chengba's three-pointed knife, and he returned defeated. In the Song army's formation,"Eight-armed King Kong" Li Jun,"Golden Retriever Lion" Zhang Baoyang, and"White-faced Tiger" Li Bin successively entered the battle. Zuo Chengba dueled, and lost in five, six, and seven rounds respectively. In the Song army's formation, Wang Zhaoyuan, the"Huaqian Taisui", sat down on his horse, danced with a pestle and white pear flower gun to fight against Zuo Chengba. After twelve rounds, he was defeated by Zuo Chengba. He died under the horse with a knife. In the Song Army's"Double Hammer Competition against Cao Zhang", Pei Zhongpu furiously slapped his horse and swung the hammer straight to attack Zuo Chengba. The two horses met, the hammer and knife were raised randomly, and the two generals fought fiercely in Zheng Chen's shadow for twenty rounds. Pei Zhongpu was gradually dying. If he were defeated and returned to the main formation, he could still save his life. However, he was eager to repay the kindness of the King of Jin and fought with his life. After three or five rounds of fighting, he was beheaded by Zuo Chengba. Mingshan"The King of Flower Swords" Wang Han raised his sword again and jumped on his horse to fight Zuo Chengba. In the Liao army formation, Zuo Chenglong could no longer bear it, so he slapped his horse and stepped forward to help with the sword. In the Song army formation, the"violent Wu Ben" with beautiful beard Dai Xing held a flaming zhangba spear and stopped Zuo Chenglong from fighting. The two pairs fought in front of the formation, twisted into a ball, and beat them into one piece. In the sixth or seventh round of the battle, the Liao army general Zuo Yanzhang swung his broadsword, and the Liao army soldiers ran The Song army came in like a tidal wave. Zuo Yanzhang picked up his bow and set an arrow. The bow was opened like a full moon, and the arrows were like shooting stars. He ran towards Zhao Guangyi and shot straight ahead.
