The Song Dynasty has been deliberate for 16 years, only to know that it is the Water Margin

The fire burned the sky with raging momentum, shocking the heaven and earth, and changing the color of the world.

This is different from the fires Zhao Tong set before. Those fires either did not burn such a large area, or did not have so many combustible things in front of them.

This is a grassland, and there are many kinds of weeds on the mountain, especially the unique big green grass, which is yellow and dry in the autumn.

The trees on the mountain are mainly coniferous. The most striking feature of this kind of tree is that it is very oily. The oil seeps out of the skin and forms an amber-like gel on the trunk, which is easy to burn.

At this time, the wind supported the fire, and the fire took advantage of the power of the wind. A sea of ​​​​fire instantly formed, with fire dragons flying and smoke rolling. From the initial "crackling" sound of burning dry matter, it soon turned into a roaring and devouring sound.

The fire was ruthless and came with a heat wave. Everything on the mountain was submerged in a moment. Birds and beasts ran away. Anyone who slowed down was swallowed up by the flames. He couldn't even make a sound and was buried in the sea of ​​fire.

Zhao Tong rubbed his eyes and sighed: "It is a crime to harm innocent creatures. This is my fault."

There is no way, I have to pretend at this moment. In the future, when the great struggle is over and the Holy Rule is launched, the world should still be governed with benevolence and morality, and everyone should follow the example. Thinking about Zhao Tong gives me a headache.

I have never liked being an emperor, I am not interested in being an emperor.

If possible, I would most like to be a teacher, teach a group of children in a rural school, and impart principles and knowledge to them.

I am very confused and have no idea about the emperor. I am not the emperor because of any benefits. I have no idea what the benefits of being the emperor are.

"After this battle, I will fast for a month!"

Everyone nearby was stunned when they heard this. Li Kui blinked his eyes and was about to speak. Song Jiang next to him grabbed him and said to himself, I can't let you, a fool like you, talk nonsense at this moment.

He said with a half salute on his horse: "Your Majesty's great kindness and benevolent heart are really a blessing to all people in the world. However, the fault of this life's misfortune lies with the Jurchens, not with your Majesty and our Daqin. If it were not for the Jurchens' wolfish ambitions and leopard behavior, Ande would have met The rise of the Jurchens has not only caused suffering to the people of Daqin and Liao, but also his own people. The Jurchens' sins are unforgivable. Your Majesty's elimination of the Jurchens is in compliance with the will of God and the people's will. You should celebrate it. That’s right, Your Majesty, there is no need to blame yourself.”

After he finished speaking, the generals beside him woke up and agreed with his words. Zhao Tong shook his head: "It's because I can't bear it..."

Zhu Wu continued: "Your Majesty's benevolent rule of the world is truly worthy of my admiration. However, the faults all belong to the Jurchens. Your Majesty destroyed the Jurchens and avenged those innocent dead creatures. It is fitting to celebrate, but there is no need to blame yourself."

Zhao Tong pursed his lips and wanted to feel more compassionate. At this time, a soldier came to report: "Your Majesty, there is a Jurchen coming down the mountain one mile away. Come to the corner of the mountain..."

At this moment, the shouts of killing were heard over there, and Jurchen, who had just come down from the mountain at this moment, had already jumped to the edge of the mountain and was fighting with the surrounding soldiers.

Zhao Tong said: "Have you ever used the crossbow?"

The soldier said: "It started to radiate from a distance."

Zhao Tong nodded, thinking in his mind, after all, the land is vast, and there are materials on the mountain to make shields. This is a formation, not a circle, so ordinary martial arts is enough, but top masters should still not be afraid of bows and crossbows.

He said: "Let's all go over. We can't let the Jurchens escape."

The generals said that the place was not far away for more than a mile, and it could be reached in a short time by riding a horse.

I saw about a few hundred people coming down the mountain. Few of these people were wearing Jin military uniforms, but more were wearing coarse animal skins. Most of them were holding various swords and weapons, and some were carrying wooden signs. The wooden signs looked like they were in the mountains. Made right on the mountain, using local materials.

"Are they from the Jianyin tribe?" Zhao Tong asked.

"Reporting to your Majesty, it is the majority of the Jianyin tribe." General Lu replied: "Those who do not wear military uniforms are all using swords and are extremely proficient in swordsmanship."

Zhao Tong narrowed his eyes and said, "How is the martial arts of the Jianyin tribe?"

"Your Majesty, this..." General Lu looked embarrassed.

Zhao Tong asked curiously: "What's not good to say?"

General Lu scratched his shaggy beard and said, "Your Majesty, even if I razed the Jianyin tribe's village to the ground, I still haven't seen the leader of the Jianyin tribe."

"Did the leader of the Jianyin tribe never take action?" Zhao Tong asked doubtfully.

"It was this person who didn't take action, and later the entire tribe's masters escaped from the village and ran west, so I had no chance to identify who was the leader of the Jianyin tribe." General Lu said depressedly.

"The village has been flattened, but he still doesn't take action. This person is very calm." Zhao Tong snorted.

"I wonder if the leader of the Jianyin tribe is not in the tribe, so he has been missing?"

Zhao Tong shook his head: "If he wasn't here, Wu Qimai couldn't have fled here, he must have been here. It was just that the situation was unstoppable at that time, and considering the safety of many subordinates below, he had no choice but to show weakness and think he could escape, so he did not die in person, but But it’s different now…”

"Your Majesty, what's different now?" General Lu asked.

"At this moment..." Zhao Tong said leisurely: "Now it's a fight between trapped beasts!"

At this moment, in front of the layers of military armor, the sound of killing was already loud. Although the arrows continued, many people with strong martial arts skills on the other side, holding shields, rushed to the side of the team.

Of course, some of them had been shot down. After all, a shield couldn't block the whole body, and they had to have the skills to cooperate. Those with less skills were shot and injured and did not rush over.

Zhao Tong's eyes kept scanning the Jurchen crowd, looking for Wanyan Wu Qimai, Wanyan Zonghan and others.

He recognized all these people. If it were someone else supervising the battle, he would not be able to find them. However, he had been in Huining for so long and had seen them all. Even Zong Qian and others had contacts.

People like Wu Qimai are all skilled in martial arts, but compared with the master's subordinates, they can only be said to be ordinary, not to mention they are good at horseback riding and not very good at foot combat, so there will definitely be someone to protect them when breaking through. .

There is no doubt that the person protecting him must be the leader of the Jianyin tribe. Except for the leader of the Jianyin tribe who has never made a move, everyone else has no time to care for themselves in this situation, let alone lead the charge out.

Zhao Tong sat on his horse and looked far away, and saw a small team approaching from behind in the chaos of the battle.

There were about a dozen people in the team, and almost all of them held shields in their hands, covering their faces and upper bodies, making it difficult to see clearly.

Among them was an old man who was powerful, broad and tall, with black and white hair, a thick beard of the same two colors, a pair of thick broom eyebrows, an eagle's eyes, a lion's nose, and a tiger's face with a wide mouth.

He was the only one among these people who did not hold a shield. He carried a long and wide wooden box behind his back and held a large sword in his hand.

This big sword has a strange shape and is an extremely rare thick-edged cutting instrument. This kind of sword is almost non-existent in the Central Plains. It can be seen in the Western Regions. It was the first time Zhao Tie saw it on the grassland.

This sword is five times as wide as a normal sword. It is mostly used for cutting and less for stabbing. Its sword technique is completely different from normal sword techniques due to the characteristics of the sword body.

Zhao Tong couldn't help but touch his chin. This old man was a little weird. Could he be the leader of the Jianyin tribe? Among the dozen or so people who followed were Wu Qimai?
He thought for a while and secretly ordered the team over there to open a small opening and come out.

This is not to let the tiger return to the mountain, but to catch the turtle in the urn, opening a small opening to mislead the other party to break out of the encirclement, but actually entering another larger and stronger encirclement.

After a while, the opponent was indeed fooled, and led by the old man's leaping figure, he headed towards that direction. At this moment, Zhao Tong vaguely saw a familiar figure among the people following him.

Who is this figure if not Huang Gu!
Zhao Tong had almost forgotten about Huang Gu. This boy really missed home. He had captured Huining and refused to come back. He also followed the Jurchen everywhere. Fortunately, the Jurchen also believed in him.

Did he know that his father and the brothers in Suiyulou were waiting to fix him, so he didn't dare to come back?

Zhao Tong looked at Huang Gu's figure and felt very sneaky. He wondered why he had gained Zong Han's trust and carried him with him all the time.

You must know that Huang Gumingli is Tian Hu's person, and he is a county horse, and he is related to Tian Hu. After Tian Hu surrendered to Wanyan Zongbi, he was considered Zongbi's person, but at that time Zong Han and Xi Yin retreated to Beijing, but they He took him away and did not stay with Zong Bi in the city.

Although it was chaotic at that time, it was the same as being shameless and following, but Zhao Tong felt that it should be more due to Huang Gu's strong martial arts. Otherwise, how could he continue to follow now?
He must have gained Zong Han's trust, taking him with him to protect his own family, as well as people like Wu Qimai.

Zhao Tong lightly hit the horse and said calmly behind him: "Old bachelor, I saw Erlang."

"Ah? Where is that bastard?" Huang Shang followed the army this time, but Mi Zhenting and Huo Sizhu did not follow. One of them was in Beijing, and the other was in Huining.

"Well, isn't that the one looking around?" Zhao Tong pursed his lips angrily.

Huang Shang took a look and saw that it was indeed the one. He recognized it even when his son turned into ashes.

"What is this sneaky person doing?" Huang Shang was furious.

"Isn't it that Erlang wants to sneak attack Wu Qimai so that he can make his first contribution?" Zhao Tong whispered maliciously.

"I'm so angry!" Huang Shang became more and more angry as he looked at it. It's hard to tell the difference among the enemies. If the army really kills indiscriminately and fires crossbows non-stop, no one will know if he accidentally dies inside. "I really don't know how high the sky is. , Your Majesty, wait for me to catch him."

Zhao Tong was noncommittal and said nothing, but Huang Shang was anxious and rushed his horse over.

At this time, Bai Zhan, the personal guard next to him, winked at Ding Erxie. Ding Erxie was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth, thinking that it was really exciting now.

Zhao Tong said: "Why are you two winking at me?"

"My subordinates, my subordinates are worried about the original poster."

"Well, well, I'm also worried about your poster. Why don't you hurry over and take a look at the heat... um, take a look at your poster."

Zhao Tong said and couldn't wait to urge his horse to run over there, and everyone behind him immediately followed.

At this time, although the dozen or so people broke out of the circle surrounding the mountain, they were trapped in a larger siege.

This siege was mobile, moving back and forth as more than a dozen people rushed left and right.

Although there are several grandmasters in the army at this moment, Huang Chang is the only one who can really stand up to the leader of the Jian Yin tribe. If the leader of the Jian Yin tribe is within the realm of heaven and man, then Huang Chang will be invincible.

Huang Shang had entered an epiphany a few days ago, but he did not directly leap to heaven. He did not fully understand the martial arts that emerged from the epiphany. I am afraid it would take two or three more times before he could truly step into the gate of heaven.

At this time, Yue Fei was commanding the large encirclement. Yue Fei waved his command flag and gave the order to separate. This was to separate the dozen or so people on the other side and divide them into two groups.

If there are many enemies, it would be easier to separate them, but if there are only a dozen opponents, it will be difficult to separate them.

However, Yue Fei had his own way and directly used a small trebuchet. This thing is also called a cannon, but it is not as bulky as the flying cannon of the artillery carriage and needs to be pushed and pulled. It can be used by a single soldier on his shoulder.

This kind of small cannon is not very powerful. It is not the same type of attack as arrows. It is difficult to block. If it is an arrow, it can be easily shot down with a sword or other weapons, but this thing shoots rocks, so it is not that easy. So defensive.

Just watching a pile of rocks flying away, a dozen or so people used their weapons to move left and right at first. Later, the rocks became denser and denser, and the short-hand soldiers couldn't stop them at all, so they jumped around to avoid them.

Seeing this scene, Yue Fei issued another military order, asking several artillery planes to attack three fixed points intensively, and then slowly spread out. More than a dozen people in the field were immediately forcibly separated.

It turned out that they were not divided into two groups, but three groups.

Zhao Tao stroked his palm and praised: "Junior brother is really good at making suggestions. I didn't even think of this strategy."

He immediately called Luda and others who were skilled in foot combat to come over. Then he narrowed his eyes and pointed at two of the groups and ordered them to attack and kill them. Then his eyes fell on the remaining old men.

At this moment, after the stones were thrown, many shields had been broken. Zhao Tong could see clearly that there were five people in the old man's group. The one beside him was equally tall and had a short beard. It was Wanyan Wu who was begging for money. !
Next to Wanyan Wu's beggar was his eldest son Wanyan Zongpan, and there was also a middle-aged man wearing animal skins, who should be from the Jianyin tribe, but the remaining one was Huang Gu.

Obviously, Huang Gu deliberately approached these people. He was originally close to Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Xieye. After the rocks were knocked down, he deliberately jumped to the old man's place.

Zhao Tong was still a little confused about the old man's realm at this time, which made him a little surprised. Even if he faced the Great Immortal, as soon as the Great Immortal made a move, he found that the Great Immortal was a quasi-celestial being, not a half-step celestial being.

But at this moment, the old man used his broad sword to block the cannon stone. Logically speaking, he should be able to see the opponent's background, but he couldn't, and he couldn't help but feel a little heavy in his heart.

When the old man stood on the ground, he felt as if he was rooted in the earth. When he jumped up, he felt as if he was melting into the wind. When he slashed with a broad sword, it was as if his body and the sword were combined. He stepped away as if his body had transformed into a shadow.

He looked at Huang Gu again. Huang Gu's eyes did not fully pay attention to Wanyan Wu's begging, but glanced at the old man intentionally or unintentionally. It seemed that he was not interested in killing the Emperor of Jin, but was playing tricks on the old man.

Zhao Tong frowned when he saw this. At this time, Huang Shang was already approaching, and saw the old bachelor's sleeve slipping, and a hole flute appeared.

The color of the cave flute was green, and the length of the shakuhachi was just in line with the saying that the shakuhachi was ruthless. At this moment, the old scholar's foot slipped, and he flew towards the master of the Kengakure tribe with the cave flute in hand.
