() Liang Shanbo knew that Hou Qingyun was a master, so he said: "It's not too late, let's go back to the barracks, and the army will set off immediately."

Hou Qingyun immediately approached Xia Gulan and expressed his intention, Xia Gulan said: "This time, what excuse are you going to find for not letting me follow?"

Hou Qingyun said: "It's different this time. I want to follow the army to suppress the rebellion. Those Manichaeans are real monsters. They gathered people to rebel and should be killed. But most of the ordinary believers are just fooled people. Since they participated in the rebellion, they will naturally die, and I'm afraid you won't be able to bear to see that scene."

Xia Gulan sighed quietly, and said: "That's true, then can you bear it?"

Hou Qingyun said slowly: "Even if I don't take action, those Manichaeans will still die. It's not a burden to just kill the leaders of the rebels."

Xia Gulan said: "I still want to be with you."

"Okay." Hou Qingyun was not too pretentious, and the two bid farewell to Ma Wencai. Liang Shanbo was surprised when he saw Xia Gulan's beauty. He saw Xia Gulan carrying a sword box, and thought it was a piano box, and asked Said: "What does this luthier do?"

Hou Qingyun explained to him, and said: "Your Majesty Liang, you can rest assured that my junior sister's martial arts are not much inferior to mine. There are few people in the world who are able to compete with me. With the two of us accompanying me, the masters of the Manichaeism will not be able to make a name for themselves."

Liang Shanbo didn't understand the Jianghu system, seeing that Hou Qingyun didn't look like he was joking, so he didn't ask any more questions, he bid farewell to Ma Wencai, and then left with his entourage. They rode fast horses and left Lin'an City in a short time , and traveled for a while, and came to the Forbidden Army Camp outside Lin'an City.

As soon as he entered the barracks, Hou Qingyun felt a solemn and murderous aura. Liang Shanbo led the two of them back to the camp, and ordered his men to beat drums and assemble. The drums were loudly beating, and the soldiers in all the tents in the surrounding area hurried to the camp. Campus assembly.

Soon, Liang Shanbo's 4000 men and horses were assembled, and Hou Qingyun followed Liang Shanbo to the school grounds. There was a large area covered in darkness, mostly infantry and few cavalry.

Although they are all infantry, there are quite complete arms such as crossbowmen, sword shieldmen, and pikemen, especially the god arm crossbow, which is shining with cold light and extremely powerful. The reason why the Song army was able to repel the golden cavalry like tigers and wolves repeatedly , the god arm crossbow is really a great contribution.

Liang Shanbo straddled the steed, and delivered an impromptu pre-war speech in front of the soldiers, mobilizing the atmosphere of the soldiers.After he finished his speech, he saw thousands of soldiers in high spirits, so he pointed his horsewhip and sent his troops to Taizhou.

It was impossible for Liang Shanbo's 4000-man army to arrive at Taizhou silently, but it was still possible to drive as low-key and fast as possible. He marched for a day until the sky was completely dark, and then he ordered to set up camp and light a fire to cook food.

During the break, Hou Qingyun wanted to know what Song generals like Liang Shanbo thought of the Mongols, so he asked Liang Shanbo what he thought of the Jin soldiers' upcoming southward invasion.

Liang Shanbo admired Hou Qingyun's kung fu, and admired him even more for his foresight as a martial arts master. He was completely free from the unruly and unscrupulous banditry like the reckless rivers and lakes. When he heard Hou Qingyun's question, he said in a deep voice: "Jin Every time the people invaded the south, the main force was to attack along the Yangzhou-Anfeng line. These places are all the places that our Song Dynasty has deployed for many years, guarded by tens of thousands of elite soldiers..."

"The land of Jingchu is connected by mountains and rivers, and the two cities of Xiangfan face each other across the water. They are both easy to defend and difficult to attack." After he finished his introduction, he sighed and said: "Although the Great Song Dynasty took advantage of natural dangers and favorable geographical conditions, it is very stable. Staying on the defensive, but wanting to advance, it is extremely difficult to regain the Central Plains!"

Liang Shanbo was thinking of the military system of the Song Dynasty: the status of the military officers was low, and they had to be constrained by civilian officials who knew nothing when marching and fighting. , What battle can we win?

Hou Qingyun then asked: "Then what does Lord Liang think of the Mongols?"

Liang Shanbo was a little surprised, and said, "Aren't the Mongols the barbarians who have been fighting each other in the northern desert all year round?"

"It seems that these people have no idea about the Mongols!" Hou Qingyun told Liang Shanbo that Mongolia had been unified and that Wang Han and Jamuka were invading Xixia and Dajin respectively.

This kind of military situation really surprised Liang Shanbo, but it was nothing unusual. Qiu Qianren had a close relationship with the Jinren in private before, so it is not surprising to know the first-hand information.

Liang Shanbo was also a man of understanding, and instantly thought of the precedent of the Song and Liao wars when the Jurchens took advantage of the opportunity to unite with the Song Dynasty to destroy the Liao Dynasty, and then went south to attack Bianliang and destroy the Song Dynasty within a few years, his expression was dignified.

The Kingdom of Jin is the current enemy, but the brutal Mongols are the future enemy!

The next thing is to rush day and night. During this period of rest, the soldiers of the Song Army were curious about the young couple Hou Qingyun and Xia Gulan. After asking each other, they found out their identities as martial arts masters. Most people did not believe this. The two are the kind of martial arts knights who can go high and low in the legend, but Liang Shanbo's army is strict, and although the generals don't believe it, no one dares to step forward to provoke.

After marching for four days, Liang Shanbo's army finally arrived in Taizhou. The magistrate of Taizhou was a fat man. Knowing that Liang Shanbo was leading the army into the city in advance, he arranged a group of people to stand outside the city gate to welcome him warmly.

Liang Shanbo's face was ashen, and he stepped forward with a flying kick and kicked the fat man's official on all fours, only to hear him say angrily: "We are marching low-key this time, just because we don't want to startle the snake, so as not to let the rebels get it in advance." The wind is escaping, you idiot are so fanatical, don't you tell the rebels clearly that the imperial army has arrived?"

The fat man official was severely reprimanded by him, and he was speechless and extremely ashamed. After getting up, Nuonuo dared not speak.The more Liang Shanbo thought about it, the angrier he became, and he couldn't help kicking him again.

Hou Qingyun said: "Since this place is only three or forty miles away from the Manichaean thieves, why not just rush to the enemy's nest and catch them by surprise?"

Liang Shanbo pondered for a moment, then ordered the whole army to turn around, bypass the Taizhou government, and march directly to Shengyu Village, where the Manichean rebels were entrenched.

The terrain of Taizhou is low-lying, and the seaside features are obvious. Although it is still full of greenery, the trees are not straight and tall, but mostly tropical species, with aerial roots, rough broad leaves, and clusters of short bushes, which can be seen at a glance. The sky is white.

The rebel army marched for more than ten miles, and the scouts in front suddenly led a person to Liang Shanbo. Military control - Yang Kang.

Liang Shanbo immediately gave the order to suspend, got off his horse, and together with Yang Kang, several military officers and Hou Qingyun, Yang Kang's eyes lit up when he saw Hou Qingyun, but at this moment the military situation was urgent, not a time to reminisce about the old days, he just nodded his head as a signal up.

Yang Kang took out a roll of hand-painted topographic map, spread it on the ground, and said: "Generals, please take a look, this is the whole picture of Shengyu Village, where the Manichean rebels gather."
