Dawn of the Empire

Chapter 438 82 Bingyan controls strong Chu-5

With a cloud-piercing arrow, thousands of troops will meet each other.That is to say, the Green Forest Arrow.Green Forest Arrow is also known as Hero Post, and there is no evidence to test when it originated.Only people with great prestige in the world can pass on the command arrow, and the heroes of the green forest will not dare to resign even if they go through fire and water.However, for most people, Greenwood Arrow is just a legend.

In the Jingxiang area, Lu Mingyu fired the Green Forest Arrow in the name of Zhao Xingde, causing a commotion in the southeast grass.The green forest heroes who received the post were all surprised.Zhao Xingde has a great reputation, but he has always been talked about by Qingliu scholars, and he seems to have nothing to do with people in the green forest.Lu Mingyu mentioned in the letter attached to the back of Lvlinjian that he was a former military adviser of the Holy Cult, which is not bad if you think about it carefully.Ten years ago, not only the leader of the party announced it to the world, but even the officials of the Song Dynasty said so in the Haizhu official documents sent to the prefectures and counties.Back then, many Mingjiao heroes were complacent about this.But in the real hero post, Zhao Xingde didn't mention revival of the holy religion at all, he only said that everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world.Since Chen Sheng, Wu Guang, Henkel and Chu Ba, the southeast has always been a land of heroes.When the Liao thieves went south, the heroes from the southeast would rise up and attack them. You must not be a minion for the tiger and do things that humiliate your ancestors.So call everyone together to join in the grand event.

When Deng Yuanjue from Zhijiang Village in Tanzhou saw Zhao Xingde's post, he felt an indescribable strange feeling in his heart.At the beginning, Fang La appointed Zhao Xingde as a former military adviser, but it was just a trick to kill people with a knife and make the court even more disappointed.Others don't know, but Deng Yuanjue knows it all.At the beginning, he was responsible for raising military salaries, buying weapons, etc. in the church, and he had a lot of power. He was excluded from the center of the holy religion only because he offended the prime minister, Fang Fei.Fortunately, after Fang La's defeat, the imperial court wiped out the leaders of the sect, while Deng Yuanjue escaped.He firmly believed in teachings and firmly believed that this failure was nothing more than the fact that in the thousands of years of struggle between light and darkness, demons and evil gods temporarily gained the upper hand, but the world will eventually gain light.After hiding for a period of time, Deng Yuanjue hid his Mingjiao identity, opened a mountain and set up a cabinet in Tanzhou, recruiting troops for future uprisings, and laying down his strength.

"Master Fang's unrivaled supernatural powers, I didn't expect that Zhao Xingde, a Confucian scholar, would live longer than him, longer than all the leaders of the sect," Deng Yuanjue couldn't help feeling absurd, shaking the gold-plated post , "He actually used the name of the holy religion, what is his intention here? Although Master Fang is sorry for the old man, the old man can't ignore it!"

Thinking of this, Deng Yuanjue was startled.He is an old brother of Mingjiao, he has served Mingzun for more than 30 years, and he has studied the teachings deeply.Unlike those congregants who were like headless flies after Fang La's incident, Deng Yuanjue has always sneered at those deceptive tricks, thinking that the good teachings of the holy religion have been made like wild shrines by these people eager for quick success.He immediately ordered his subordinates to prepare to sail to Yuezhou to participate in the alliance.

In the largest water village in the Dongting area, Dingzhou Shangwan village, Zhou Cheng, Bai De, Wang Song and other leaders gathered together to discuss how to deal with the hero posts sent by Lu Mingyu.

"Is Lu Mingyu going to be recruited?" Zhou Cheng read the post over and over, and he handed the post to Wang Song and said, "What do you think, third brother?" The three of them followed the example of Liu Guanzhang's sworn brothers.Although Zhou Cheng was born with a burly figure and a fierce face, he actually treated the two sworn brothers very well.But Wang Song is the youngest, but he can read and write, resourceful, and he values ​​it even more.

Wang Songna read the post once, and said in a deep voice: "The Liao thieves are about to go south, the surname Lu can't sit still, he wants to vote for the government, and other temples don't accept him as a brat, so he took the line of Zhao Xingde, also He is shrewd, he is worthy of being the chief leader of the Thirteenth Chain Village." He flicked the post, "This Zhao Xingde is famous all over the world, and he is indeed a good flag. Lu Mingyu's Green Forest Arrow took advantage of the situation. Definitely a big increase in power.”

"Zhao Xingde has such a great reputation," Bai De wondered, "How could he be used by Lu Mingyu like this?"

"These two should use each other," Wang Song said, curling his lips, "Zhao Xingde lived in seclusion for ten years and had no roots in the southeast. He also used Lu Mingyu to recruit his subordinates, and the more people in the cottage that belonged to Zhao Xingde, the more powerful Lu Mingyu would be. , these two are really easy to calculate."

Bai De frowned and said, "Dongting Lake is only this big. If he becomes more powerful, our power will be weaker."

"What's the advantage of being big now?" Wang Song returned the post to Zhou Cheng, and he picked up a poplarberry and threw it into his mouth, "Zhao Xingde and Chen Dong are on the same road, and Chen Dong only has the township 8000 in his hand. People and horses, but they insisted on refusing to regard Zhao Qi as emperor. He was in Ezhou, and Liu Yanqing, who was camping in Xiangyang, could not rest with him. In addition, the Liao Kingdom was marching into Jianghuai, and Ezhou could be said to be under the enemy's back. It's hard to say for a month. This situation is so dangerous that even Yue Diao'er can't resist it, so what's the use of Lu Mingyu's power?"

"What the third brother said." Zhou Cheng's brows loosened, and he threw the post on the table casually, "Then let him go."

Wang Song sneered inwardly, but said with a smile on his face: "The surname Lu tried his best to cling to Zhao Xingde, a white man, and Chen Dong, a tree that was about to be felled, wanted to die by himself. It is bound to raise troops in the southeast, and our water village cannot be without a backer. Brother, a few days ago, Master Li of Linjiang Mansion sent someone to recruit for security, do we have to do it too?"

Zhou Cheng frowned again, and he touched his forehead with his hands, as if to smooth out the wrinkles.Master Li, the magistrate of Linjiang Mansion, is Li Bangyan's younger brother, named Li Tao.This person is also frivolous, with a bad reputation, but his backer is very solid.When Zhao Qi ascended the throne, the Linjiang Mansion was late, and Xijing quickly issued an order to let Li Dao sit as the magistrate.However, after Li Wei took office, the news that the Liao army was going south immediately came, and the entire Linjiang Mansion's forbidden army was less than a thousand. Li Wei immediately panicked. So he sent people to Shangwanzhai, Dingzhou to recruit security.

Zhou Cheng thought about it for a long time, and finally took out another letter from his arms, handed it to Wang Song and said, "Third brother has to work hard, you go to Linjiang Mansion to deal with Master Li." He looked at Wang Song warned: "The people in the government are sinister, so be careful, don't play tricks on others." Wang Song took it over, looked at the words on the envelope, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, brother. Just let me do it."

Shangwan village in Dingzhou can ignore Zhao Xingde, but there are few Shanshui villages in Jingxiang area that have a ready retreat like them.Although Zhao Xingde is white, his relationship with the Neo-Confucian Society is known to everyone in the world.In Ezhou, Chen Dong respected the orthodoxy and did not follow the order of "chaos". The Qingliu of Lishe in the whole southeast stirred up the "tide", and he had a great time fighting with Mrs. Cai Jing and Li Bangyan.At this time, Zhao Xingde, who hadn't been seen for ten years, suddenly appeared in Yuezhou, Dongting. Not only did he appear, but he also contacted Hero with great fanfare.No one doubted that he was echoing Chen Dong from afar.The situation today.The Liao army marched southward at a high speed, and Kong Yanzhou, the defender of Chuzhou, surrendered without a fight. The defeated army did not stop until Jinling.Throughout the southeast, there are no eggs under the cover of the nest. Not only ordinary people are panicked, but people in the grass no longer find their way out.Even the Forbidden Army suffered a defeat, and with only one or two villages, it was impossible to fight against the Liao Army.The building is about to fall, the situation is dangerous, and the road ahead is unpredictable, so many people came to Yuezhou with vague hopes.

In Ezhou Zhizhou Mansion, the warm sunshine of early spring poured into the hall unobstructed, and a post was placed on the table.This post was brought back from Yuezhou by Gao Qing, the envoy of the town government.When Wang Yan was in charge of the southeast camp, Yue Fei had an old relationship with Hao Ting, the commander of the Jiangling Navy.Chen Dong therefore advised Yue Fei to send envoys to contact the Jiangling navy, but Hao Ding only received Gao Qing politely and sent him out of the country the next day.When Gao Qing was on his way back to Ezhou, the news that Zhao Xingde sent out green forest arrows and summoned heroes from the southeast to fight against the Liao Army had already spread. After he deliberately inquired, he finally copied a post. He didn't dare to delay for a moment, and immediately returned to the Ezhou News Know with Chen Dong.

"Intentionally 'planting' flowers will not bloom, but unintentionally 'planting' willows and willows will make shade." Chen Dong picked up the post, with a smile on his face, and secretly said in his heart, "Zhao Yuanzhi, I know you will never sit back and watch your family and country fall " He handed the post to Yue Fei, and said with a smile, "Northern people are good at riding, and southerners are good at boating. It just so happened that when Ezhou lacked a navy capable of fighting, Zhao Yuanzhi called for a navy. "

Yue Fei's face sank like water, and he didn't answer. He frowned and looked at the post on the desktop.These days,

He has always been like this, and Chen Dong didn't care about it, he just said with a worried look on his face, "It's just that these reckless bandits are used to being loose, and most of them are vicious. Zhao Yuan has always been with them, so nothing will happen?"

............

These days, Zhao Xingde is also extremely busy.The various villages that received the hero post sent envoys even if the village owner didn't come, and many heroes came from all directions after hearing the news. Many gentry and scholars, admired Zhao Xingde's name, and invited his friend Jia Ding to come and join in the grand event.These are trickles, but they add up. In less than half a month, the water village has been thriving.Dongting Yuezhou water village was very lively, Lu Mingyu saw it in his eyes and was happy in his heart.Unexpectedly, just playing the name of Zhao Xingde, without using a single grain or spending a penny, has such a great effect.Liu Heng, Xia Mao'er and other water village leaders had nothing to say, but secretly hoped that the more people would come to serve, the better. If this continues, the Dongting Thirteenth Chain Village will soon surpass Dingzhou Shangwan Village and become a successor. The leading force on the entire Jingxiang water.

Since people are coming for him, no matter whether he is knowledgeable or not, whether they are powerful or not, Zhao Xingde always wants to meet him, sometimes he has to talk to more than a dozen people a day, he is afraid that he will be treated slowly, and it will chill the heart of the heroes who come to the alliance.When he was only taking a break from his busy schedule, Fang wrote a letter asking Lu Mingyu to send his confidants to Ezhou, asking Chen Dong to prepare a name to recruit these heroes on the water to serve the country.Among other things, for every point of power recruited here, the power that the Khitan people and the 'treacherous' party can rely on is reduced by one point.
