The Most Powerful Man in the World

Zhao Ji was obviously in a hurry. In fact, the news that Zhong Shidao had already arrived in Yingtian Mansion was sent back through the secret letter from the supervising army Liang Fangping. Zhao Ji became more clear.

He was just short of breath and wanted to get some psychological comfort.

After waving his hands, Zhao Ji looked towards Ying Tianfu, took a deep breath, and said as if to encourage himself: "I believe that the Zhongqing family will live up to my expectations and suppress the rebels like Chu Yi."

Yingtianfu

As the northern gateway of the capital, Yingtian Mansion has a high status among the various prefectures of the Song Dynasty. Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses have been stationed in Yingtian Mansion for a long time. But it became more and more lively.

There are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses all of a sudden, one can imagine what kind of scene it will be in Yingtianfu City.

It is also thanks to the fact that the teacher has always been strict in running the army. If other generals led tens of thousands of troops into the city, it would be a strange thing if they didn't make a mess of a prosperous city.

Even so, under the strict requirements and constraints of the way of being a teacher, some soldiers still sneaked out of the camp and caused a lot of trouble in the city.

For this kind of way of teaching, dozens of leading soldiers were even cut off, which can be regarded as stopping this trend, but this kind of way of teaching was also hated by many soldiers of the Forbidden Army from the capital.

Although the reputation of Zhong Shi Dao is famous all over the world, its majesty mainly comes from the Zhong Family Army in the border town. Among the Zhong Family Army, no one dares to disobey the order of Zhong Shi Dao, but for those who come from the Forbidden Army As far as the soldiers are concerned, these old soldiers will not be afraid of the way of teachers.

The way of teaching and governing the army with military law, not only has no effect, but also provoked the hatred of many soldiers. It can only be said that the Imperial Army of the Great Song Dynasty is really rotten from the root.

In the big tent, a middle-aged general looked at the master Zhong sitting in the commander-in-chief with a face full of wind and frost, and said, "Big brother, since big brother ordered to kill those soldiers who violated the military order, those soldiers from the Imperial Army There was a faint undercurrent, and many soldiers even harbored resentment towards the elder brother."

Zhong Shidao slapped the table, and said with an angry face: "The Song Dynasty raised millions of soldiers, but only a few of them were usable, and none of them were banned. A certain person won't bring it, not only won't help much, but will only add to the chaos."

As the younger brother of Zhong Shidao, Zhong Shidao is also the current person in charge of the Zhong Family Army. He can be said to be a good general. If it is here, I can't imagine that with these forbidden troops, Ying Tian Mansion can be defended for a few days."

Zhong Shidao waved his hand, looked at Zhong Shizhong, and said with a righteous expression: "The undercurrent in the army will not pay attention to him, those wastes will not pose any threat no matter how many complaints they have, on the contrary, it is the one who came from Xuzhou Where is Chu Yi's subordinate now?"

The teacher in the plant looked at the teacher in the plant and said: "So that the eldest brother knows, according to the news from our Kuaima Tanbao and the Imperial City Secretary, Chu Yi's troops are already approaching Yucheng, and it will take another day or two at most. Enter the boundary of Yingtian Mansion."

Zhong Shidao showed some understanding on his face and sighed softly: "The Chu thieves came so fast, it seems that His Majesty expects those people to delay the marching speed of Chu Yi's troops, but he will be disappointed."

The teacher said with a bit of disdain: "It is simply delusional to expect a group of trash to resist Chu Yi's elite troops."

As he said that, there was a look of eagerness in the eyes of the seed teacher, and he said to the seed teacher: "Brother, what should we do next, relying on the capital of Yingtianfu to fight against Chu Yi's troops, and then wait for the four directions to serve the king's soldiers." Ma Qianlai or..."

Zhong Shidao shook his head slightly and said: "This move seems to be safe, but it is the most inappropriate. Don't forget that what Chu Yi and the others are playing is the banner of Qingjun's side, not the banner of rebellion."

The teacher Zhong snorted coldly and said, "Isn't Qing Jun's side just a rebellion?"

Glancing at Mr. Zhong, Mr. Zhong said with a smile: "Rebellion is rebellion, but Qing Jun's side is different from rebellion, even if everyone knows that Qing Jun's side is actually no different from rebellion, but for some people who are lucky and willing to wait and see, They can then sit back and wait for the results before considering their options.”

Being able to become a general among the seed teachers is obviously not a dull person, so he quickly reacted, looked at the seed teacher and said: "Brother, what you mean is that we want to hold Chu Yi here, and then wait for King Qin Is it impossible for the teacher to come?"

Zhong Shidao nodded slightly, stroked his gray beard, and said with a sparkle in his eyes: "It's not because of my brother that I look up to our official family. I'm afraid there are not many civil and military people who are loyal to this official family. Teacher, I'm afraid there are only a few loyal and opportunistic people."

Seeming to have heard the meaning of the teacher's words, the teacher suddenly raised his head to look at the teacher and said, "Brother, are you not optimistic about your majesty?"

Zhong Shidao didn't say anything, but based on the understanding of Zhong Shidao, if Zhong Shidao didn't open his mouth, it was acquiescence.

Two days passed in a blink of an eye, the gates of the city that were originally closed were rumbled open, and a group of soldiers and horses roared out, the leading general was none other than Zhongshi Zhong.

After discussing with the same kind of teacher, the teacher of the species obviously will not defend the city here. According to the idea of ​​the teacher of the species, he is going to ambush on the road, even if it can't cause much damage to Chu Yi's troops, at least he will It's about showing your own momentum.

On the tall city tower, Zhong Shidao watched the Zhongshi leading two thousand kinds of family troops and ten thousand imperial troops leaving the city in a mighty manner, but there was a bit of solemnity in his eyes.

At some point, a figure came over and said to Mr. Zhong, "Could the commander-in-chief be worried about the second general?"

Zhong Shizhong is the younger brother of Shidao Zhong, so among the Zhong family army, Shidao Zhong is the undoubted commander-in-chief, and Zhong Shizhong is naturally called the second general.

Glancing at the man, Zhong Shidao said indifferently: "Why isn't General Zhou Ang patrolling the army, and came here to see Chong, but what's the matter?"

Zhou Ang is the same famous instructor of the Forbidden Army as Lin Chong, and his cultivation level is not bad, but for this battle, Zhao Ji sent out many instructors of the Forbidden Army.

These instructors such as Zhou Ang, Qiu Yue, Wang Wenbin, etc., although they are not the top-notch generals such as Lu Da and Wu Song, their cultivation bases are not bad. The enemy is still no big problem.

And Zhou Ang is the best among these instructors, because of his tyrannical self-cultivation, he was recorded as a teacher.

Zhou Ang looked around, stepped forward with a mysterious look, and said in a low voice: "Is the commander sure to guard Ying Tianfu?"

Zhong Shidao frowned immediately when he heard the words, and looked at Zhou Ang with a cold snort. Under Zhong Shidao's majestic tiger eyes, Zhou Ang had a feeling of being seen through.

However, since Zhou Ang dared to ask, he was not afraid of the stare of the teacher, and looked at the teacher very calmly.

I could only hear Zhong Shidao looking at Zhou Ang word by word and said: "If the old man's prediction is not bad, you, Zhou Ang, are probably from that Chu Yi."

Zhou Ang was not surprised that Zhong Shidao was able to guess his identity. He was so obvious. Has such a big reputation.

Arching his hands, Zhou Ang said with a smile to Mr. Zhong: "The commander-in-chief really knows everything, and Zhou knows that he can't hide it from the commander-in-chief."

Looking at Zhou Ang with a calm expression, Zhong Shidao didn't say anything, but Zhou Ang said with a serious expression: "Zhou came to see the commander-in-chief because he hoped that the commander-in-chief could open the city gate and enter the capital with my admiral. Help the crown prince ascend the throne, and protect the great Song Dynasty from falling..."

Zhong Shidao waited until Zhou Ang had finished speaking, and said flatly: "Is this what Chu Yi wants you to tell me?"

Zhou Ang shook his head and said, "My admiral has always admired the general, but he didn't ask me to persuade him to surrender. The reason why I came here was just my own idea."

Zhong Shidao turned around and said very calmly: "Go ahead, I will take you, but it is impossible for me to open the gate of the city."

Zhou Ang looked at Zhong Shidao with his back turned to him, but there was a bit of a smile in his eyes, and then he bowed and turned around to the back of Zhong Shidao.

Zhou Ang was very happy in his heart. Although Zhong Shidao said he did not agree to accept Chu Yi's troops into the city, if Zhong Shidao was Zhao Ji's diehard loyalist, when he revealed his identity, he would have been killed by Zhong Shidao. It was won, but Zhong Shidao didn't care about his identity, which actually showed Zhong Shidao's attitude to a certain extent.

Zhong Shidao just doesn’t want to leave any stains on his reputation. After all, Zhong Shidao has faded out of the military, but he has great prestige. In this case, Zhong Shidao’s most important thing is his reputation. So if you want him to voluntarily surrender, this kind of thing will never be done by the teacher.

As a county seat under Yingtian Mansion, Yucheng is in chaos at the moment, because before half a cup of tea, a group of soldiers and horses appeared outside Yucheng County. Chu Yi's army that moved the world.

The county magistrate of Yucheng County was showing hesitation at the moment, but he quickly made a choice. Not long after, the city gate slowly opened. Under the leadership of the county magistrate, all the officials of the county came to pay their respects. Chu Yi.

Sitting in the army, Chu Yi had no time to pay attention to these local officials, so he sent these people to Zong Ze and Zhang Shuye to deal with them.

If this is due to Zhang Shuye's temperament, Zhang Shuye would like to chop off the heads of these disloyal people, but with Zong Ze watching from the side, no matter how dissatisfied Zhang Shuye is, he will not May burst out.

The army did not enter every city, directly crossed Yucheng, and headed towards Yingtianfu City.

It's only a day's journey from Yucheng to Fucheng, and this distance is actually very close to Yingtian Fucheng.

A huge carriage moved forward slowly, and Chu Yi was sitting in the carriage.

I saw Chu Yi sitting in it, holding a book in one hand and a chess piece in the other, playing chess with a Taoist.

If Zhao Ji, Cai Jing and others who were in the capital saw this Taoist, their eyeballs would almost fall out, because this Taoist was none other than Lin Lingsu, the real person whom Zhao Ji trusted.

Zhao Ji naturally had great trust in Lin Lingsu, otherwise, he would not have entrusted Lin Lingsu to take charge of such an important institution as the Imperial City Department, which is equivalent to the eyes and ears of the emperor.

But Lin Lingsu appeared in Chu Yi's army, and even in the same car as Chu Yi, the meaning contained in this was quite different.

A chess piece fell, Lin Lingsu seemed unable to bear it, and finally said to Chu Yi: "You Daoist have made a great achievement this time, and the poor Daoist was a little confused when the statement from the Qing Dynasty came out. "

Chu Yi just smiled and said: "The real person is just joking. With the real person's cultivation base and deeds, not to mention a call to arms, no matter how many calls to make, they probably won't be able to shake the real person's mind."

While speaking, Chu Yi also dropped a chess piece, and Lin Lingsu shook his head while dropping the piece: "Poverty Taoist never thought that fellow daoist would be so bold, does fellow daoist really want to try the throne?" What kind of feeling is it?"

Lin Lingsu was obviously trying to test whether Chu Yi wanted to rebel, or if he really wanted to welcome the crown prince as the new king as written in the proclamation on the side of the Qing Dynasty, and help protect the Song Dynasty.

Chu Yi looked up at Lin Lingsu and said with a slight smile, "The real person thinks the throne is more important, or my generation's practice is more important?"

Lin Lingsu was taken aback for a moment, and immediately said: "Of course, my generation's practice is more important."

Chu Yi laughed lightly and said: "The real person also said that cultivation is more important. This is Chu's answer."

Lin Lingsu couldn't help laughing out loud when he heard the words: "Fellow Daoist said so, the poor Daoist can feel at ease, Da Song really can't stand too much trouble, otherwise if there is a big mess, the Quartet When foreign races rush in, the Great Song Dynasty is in danger."

Suddenly, Lin Lingsu paused the chess piece in his hand, looked up at Chu Yi and said, "I want to congratulate the Governor."

While he was talking, he heard a burst of heavy footsteps striding forward, and the huge carriage stopped slowly, and then Wu Song's voice sounded: "Grand Governor, we found traces of the officers and soldiers ahead .”

Chu Yi smiled and said: "It's just an ambush, since it's discovered, then just kill it directly."

Wu Song cupped his hands excitedly when he heard the words and said: "The end will be ordered."

There is a low-lying land outside Li's town, and there is a forest around it, but it is a good ambush place, and Ying Tianfu led the army to ambush here.

In fact, the planters did not report too much hope for the success of the ambush. After all, the distance from Yucheng to Yingtian Mansion was almost flat, and they couldn't find a place to ambush.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

In a low-lying place, a general looked at the teacher with a puzzled expression and said, "General, if we set up an ambush here, the effect will not be very good!"

Whether such a place is suitable for setting up an ambush, even an ordinary general can tell a thing or two, let alone such a battle-tested veteran in the Zhongshi Division.

The teacher just looked at the road in the distance and shook his head slightly: "This general has no hope of a successful ambush, but what if the other party is careless and unprepared?"

As he said that, the corner of Master Zhong's mouth revealed a slight smile: "Besides, so what if they are discovered, this general just wants to see whether Chu Yi's men are as strong as the legends say."

You must know that as Chu Yi led the army all the way to the capital, it can be said that he was invincible all the way, and it was naturally said to be miraculous. In the rumors, Chu Yi's men were an invincible team. teacher.

As a lieutenant general of the Great Song Army, Zhong Shizhong, especially in command of the Zhong Family Army, can be said to be very familiar with the current situation of the Great Song Dynasty.

Although the Song Dynasty had millions of soldiers, there were very few people who were truly worthy of a battle. Even if there were, most of them were in the border areas. division.

As for the troops under Chu Yi, one could tell at a glance that none of them came from the frontier team, they were all soldiers of the Forbidden Army, and there was even the local Xiang army gathered by Chu Yi.

What exactly these troops look like, how can the seed divisions not know, even if Chu Yi has amazing means, he wants to turn a muddy army into an elite army in such a short period of time, it is beyond the sky , the teacher does not believe it.

This time, the seed division has brought thousands of kinds of family troops, plus tens of thousands of forbidden troops. His greatest confidence lies in the kind of family troops he brought. With thousands of kinds of family troops in hand, even in the face of With an army of tens of thousands, even one of the divisions dared to fight.

A group of fast horses galloped forward, it was the sentinel sent by the plantation division.

Seeing that sentry scout got off his horse, he quickly came to the middle of the planting division, and saluted to the middle of the planting division: "General, the rebels are here, the rebels are here."

Hearing the words, the teacher in the plant was immediately refreshed, and his eyes showed a bit of excitement.

Just a few miles away from where the ambush was set up in the seed division, Lin Chong was leading the vanguard army forward on a tall horse.

Lin Chong has already received the news that there are officers and soldiers blocking the way ahead. Regarding this, Lin Chong has no fear at all, but instead has a sense of anticipation.

They have come all the way, and they have hardly fought much. Almost when the army arrives, the opponent will surrender the whole city. Even Lin Chong and the others can't find an opponent if they want to fight.

Now someone finally dared to block the way, Lin Chong couldn't be more excited about it. Most importantly, according to the information, the person who came to block the way this time was the famous Zhong Family Army.

As Lin Chong, how could he not know the prestige of the Zhong family army, which was earned by fighting one after another in the border town.

In the Great Song Dynasty, when it comes to the Zhong Family Army, who dares to say that this is not an elite division.Even Lin Chong was a bit worried. After all, the Zhong family army was so famous that even Lin Chong was a little worried about whether the army he led was the opponent of the opponent.

But soon Lin Chong's thoughts were suppressed, and he looked back at the energetic soldiers behind him. According to the method of army training taught by Chu Yi, they have been practicing soldiers and horses during this period of time. , All the changes that have taken place in these soldiers are seen by Lin Chong and others. It is because he personally felt the changes in these soldiers that Lin Chong knows that these soldiers have undergone earth-shaking changes.

The difference between these soldiers becoming a real elite division is a big battle. As long as they don't collapse after a big battle, then an elite division is considered to be forged.

It was only a few miles away. After more than half an hour, Lin Chong saw a forest in front of him. Immediately, he swung his spear in his hand and shouted in a deep voice, "Stop!"

Immediately, thousands of vanguard soldiers stopped one by one, and these soldiers stood there neatly, looking like sculptures, not to mention other things, just the prohibition alone made people amazed.

Seeing this scene in the eyes of the secret seed teacher, he couldn't help being shocked in his heart. At most, others would feel very shocked when they saw the scene of prohibition, but how far did they go to achieve such an effect? Only a real general can understand it.

If it was said that the former cultivators didn't care about Chu Yi's troops at all, and thought that many rumors about Chu Yi's troops were just rumors, then the cultivators gradually believed them a little bit now.

It doesn't matter if you don't believe it, as the saying goes, hearing is believing, seeing is believing, but Lin Chong stopped with a shout, and the reaction of his men and horses was too shocking.
