Soon the Liangshan soldiers brought Shi Wengong's bow and arrows.
Chao Yong did not look at the well-made strong bow, but pulled out an arrow from the arrow pot.
The arrow shaft clearly had the words "Shi Wengong" written on it. When I looked at the arrow again, it was polished and bright. The color was no different from ordinary arrows, but I couldn't tell whether it was poisonous or not.
In the Water Margin, Chao Gai was killed by an arrow. Chao Yong felt it was a bit strange. Therefore, after catching Shi Wengong, Chao Yong's first reaction was to look at his bow and arrow.
Chao Yong couldn't see why he was here, so he asked someone to bring Shi Wengong.
Shi Wengong was a little unruly. Although he was kidnapped by Wu Hua Da, he still held his head high.
Li Kui saw Shi Wengong looking at people with his nostrils and couldn't help but cursed: "There must be something wrong with this guy's neck. I'll treat it for him."
With that said, he went up with a wooden ax to chop down Shi Wengong.
"Tieniu, don't be ridiculous."
Chao Yong dismissed Li Kui and personally stepped forward to untie Shi Wengong's rope.
Shi Wengong saw that everyone was surrounding Chao Yong before, and he also knew that Chao Yong was the overlord Chao Yong who was the coach this time. He frowned and said: "If you are defeated and captured, you can kill if you want. If the earthen jar is not broken outside the well, the general will inevitably be in front of the battle."
Death, Shi was well prepared before going into battle."
Chao Yong smiled and said: "You have no enmity with me in Liangshan. There were some fights before, but they were just for each other. After everyone in the village returned, they also talked about your bravery. I, Liangshan, are recruiting talents to do justice for heaven. This is true."
We need heroes like teachers. If teachers don’t think we are vulgar, why don’t you join us and do some good work.”
Shi Wengong had no idea of loyalty to the imperial court. He had been wandering around the world for many years. He worked as a teacher in Zengtou City and helped the Zeng family become a local hegemon. His temperament was more like a person from the world. Seeing Chao Yong's courtesy, it was okay.
Agreed to join.
Chao Yong saw Shi Wengong joining the gang, so he asked people to bring all Shi Wengong's weapons and return them to Shi Wengong. At the same time, he asked: "I once heard that your arrows were poisonous. I wonder if this is true?"
Many Liangshan heroes used hidden weapons, such as Zhang Qing's flying stone, Li Ying's flying knife, Luan Tingyu's hammer, Li Gun's javelin, Xiang Chong's flying knife, Gong Wang's flying spear, and Ding De's flying fork, but no one poisoned the hidden weapons. I heard Chao
Yong asked this, and everyone couldn't help but look at Shi Wengong suspiciously.
When Shi Wengong heard this, he immediately changed his expression and said: "I don't know who slandered me like this. I, Shi Wengong, dare not say that everything is aboveboard, but I also don't bother to use poison and such dirty tricks. Every arrow shaft of mine is engraved with Shi Wengong San."
The purpose of the word is to make the enemy understand how to poison him again."
When Chao Yong heard this, he nodded and said, "I have also heard Dong Ping and Hua Rong talk about your bows and arrows. It seems that your archery skills do not require medicine. It seems that there are many rumors in the world."
Putting it this way, the arrow in the Chao Gai in Water Margin was most likely shot by Song Jiang. It seems that Song Jiang knew that Shi Wengong's arrows were all engraved with names, so he made such an arrow to blame, and even
This arrow belongs to Shi Wengong. With the current methods, it is probably not difficult to touch an arrow from Shi Wengong.
When Chao Gai heard that Shi Qian had been caught stealing chickens, his first reaction was that Shi Qian had tarnished the reputation of Liangshan heroes and almost killed his companions Shi Xiu and Yang Xiong. Although he was persuaded by Song Jiang to stop him, after rescuing Shi Qian,
I'm afraid he won't have a good impression of Shi Qian either. Song Jiang not only stopped Chao Gai from killing Shi Xiu and Yang Xiong, but also personally led troops to break through Zhujiazhuang and rescued Shi Qian. If Shi Qian had to choose between the two,
It must be Song Jiang without a doubt.
If Shi Wengong's arrow was just an ordinary arrow, the person who put the blame would not be stupid enough to engrave the words "Shi Wengong" on it. That way, as long as someone was suspicious, they would know after a little inquiry that it was not Shi Wengong's arrow.
As for whether the arrow was drugged or not, it can be attributed to Shi Wengong's plan to earn money from Chao Gai, and then he specially drugged the arrow in order to kill the leader of Liangshan.
Chao Gai fell into a trap and was led into Zengtou City, where he fell into an ambush. When he was withdrawing his troops along the original route, he bumped into an army horse and was shot with an arrow. Naturally, it may have been Shi Wengong who led the ambush, or he may have been hiding in Liangshan.
The men and horses of the rear team.
After Chao Gai was hit by an arrow and fell from his horse, he was protected by San Ruan, Liu Tang and Bai Sheng and killed him.
If Shi Wengong really led his men to intercept, Qin Ming's martial arts skills could only resist Shi Wengong for twenty rounds before being defeated. If the three heroes of the Ruan family, Liu Tang, and Bai Sheng did not leave a few to resist, no one would be hurt.
I'm afraid it's impossible to protect Chao Gai when he goes out.
It is very likely that the Biao army and horses did not dare to fight with them face to face, at least no general dared to come out to intercept them.
When Chao Yong thought of this, he couldn't help but secretly rejoice that he had killed Song Jiang so early. Otherwise, the gangster had hidden evil intentions, and there was no way to guard against thieves for a thousand days. If he was not careful, he might have been plotted against himself.
Seeing Chao Yong deep in thought, Shi Wengong pulled out an arrow and stabbed his arm.
Chao Yong caught a glimpse of Shi Wengong's movements and quickly grabbed Shi Wengong's wrist and said, "Teacher, what are you doing?"
Shi Wengong couldn't say that he saw Chao Yong's disbelief, so he smiled and said: "Shi Mou has no idea where this rumor came from, but it is unfounded. Shi Mou is willing to prove his innocence, so that everyone will not have any doubts."
Chao Yong smiled and said: "How can we not believe what the teacher said? Just now I was wondering if I could take advantage of the situation to win Zengtou City. How many miles is it from Zengtou City?"
Shi Wengong felt relieved after hearing Chao Yong's words. He shook his head and said: "It's about twenty-five miles away, but Zengtou City has already set up many hidden sentries. I'm afraid the war here has spread back to Zengtou City. Elder Zeng must have already
Be prepared, it's getting late now, I'm afraid we won't be able to break into Zengtou City today."
After hearing this, Chao Yong had no choice but to take advantage of the situation and seize Zengtou City, and ordered the army to approach Wulixia Village of Zengtou City.
It is only said that when Elder Zeng learned that Shi Wengong and Zeng Sheng had been captured alive by Liangshan, and that the entire army of one thousand men was almost wiped out, he was immediately frightened and panicked, and hurriedly asked the remaining one thousand men in Zengtou City to guard the stockade.
Now there are two stockades in Zengtou City. There was originally a stockade guarding the entrance of Zengtou City. After Shi Wengong burned Fahua Temple last time, Elder Zeng was afraid that Liangshan soldiers and horses would attack again, so he built another stockade on the mountain of Fahua Temple.
Stockade, guard that path.
Yelu Dashi stood on a high hill and looked at the Zengtou City soldiers and horses who were gradually approaching the encirclement. As long as they moved five miles forward, the Zengtou City elites could be captured in one fell swoop. This also meant that they would be hunted down by Zengtou City over the years.
Liao Qi has taken revenge and removed the nail in Zeng Toushi's hand, and his prestige in the army will be further enhanced.
This legendary figure from the Liao Kingdom was already thirty-four years old at this time. His appearance was as rugged as most Khitan people, but his temperament exuded gave people a sense of elegance, rather than the toughness of ordinary Khitan people.
Five years ago, 29-year-old Yelu Dashi took part in the palace examination and won first place.
The imperial examination system of the Liao Dynasty was based on the imperial examination system of the Tang Dynasty and absorbed some systems of the Song Dynasty. The examination content was the same as that of the Song Dynasty.
For the Khitan people who were good at horseback riding and archery, it was obviously very difficult to write and write, so the candidates for each imperial examination were basically Han people from the north.
Yelu Dashi not only entered the palace examination, but also won first place, and Yelu Dashi's skill in riding and shooting was not inferior to ordinary Khitan warriors. Therefore, Yelu Dashi quickly became the pride of the Khitan people.
Yelu Dashi was also from a royal family, so he had a prosperous official career, and this year he was promoted to Xingjun Jiedushi due to his merits.
Yelu Dashi's land was opposite Cangzhou. The talented Yelu Dashi naturally knew that the Liao Kingdom was in a precarious situation at this time. The north was being defeated by the Jin Kingdom and was losing cities every day. It wouldn't be long before the Liao Kingdom was defeated.
The troops defending the Song Dynasty in the south will also be sent to the north to fight against the Jin Kingdom.
Therefore, as soon as he took office, he began to organize his troops and horses, and also learned about the situation in Zengtou City.
Originally, after the Liao and Song Dynasties signed the Chanyuan Alliance, the Liao cavalry also reduced their cross-border raids on Dacao Valley. However, in recent years, the war with the Jin Kingdom has become tense.
Emperor Yelu Yanxi of the Liao Dynasty was a fatuous emperor like the Emperor Zhao Ji of the Song Dynasty. He relied on Xiao Fengxian, Xiao Deli and other sycophants. He changed the Nabo system to hunting. He spent most of the year hunting and lived a desolate and luxurious life.
At the beginning of the founding of the Liao Dynasty, although there was a fixed capital, its political core was not in the capital, but in Nabo, which was the palace. This was because the main ethnic group of the Liao Dynasty, the Khitans, were nomadic and lived in pursuit of water and grass all year round. If the emperor
Political affairs were handled in the capital, and sometimes it took a long time just to deliver news back and forth. The Liao Kingdom was composed of many tribes, and tribal fights occurred from time to time, so the emperor of the Liao Kingdom established this Nabo system.
It patrols at four times every year, and each has its own place, which is called Nabo. All major political issues are decided at Nabo at any time, and it is the administrative center for handling government affairs.
The emperor also followed the tribe to live in the water and grass, so as to facilitate the affairs of the tribe.
However, as the Liao Kingdom later developed, its territory encompassed deserts and encompassed the Great Wall. Its territory was larger than that of the Song Dynasty. Especially after the capture of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, a large number of Han people were engaged in farming, and many Khitan tribes had settled down.
Later, the Liao Kingdom established five more capitals: Linhuang Prefecture in Shangjing, Dading Prefecture in Zhongjing, Liaoyang Prefecture in Tokyo, Xijing Prefecture in Nanjing, and Datong Prefecture in Xijing. The emperor could handle political affairs in the five capitals, so the Nabo system was somewhat inapplicable.
.
However, after Yelu Yanxi succeeded to the throne, he did not like the capital city, but liked fishing and hunting. Therefore, he restored the Nabo system and patrolled at all times. He spent most of the year hunting in Yuanyangluo, Baishuiluo and other places.
.
Everywhere he went, Yelu Yanxi would summon the leaders of nearby tribes to come to see him. When the leaders of each tribe came to see him, they naturally could not come empty-handed, except for the filial piety to Yelu Yanxi and the treacherous ministers around him. As time went by, Yelu Yanxi
The patrols have also become a burden to each tribe.
That year, Wanyan Aguda was just a leader of a small tribe with a few thousand people. Because he paid less filial piety to the treacherous minister Xiao Fengxian, Xiao Fengxian slandered him during the banquet and said that Wanyan Aguda was good at dancing. Yelu Yanxi believed it to be true and asked Wanyan Aguda to give him the filial piety.
Dance a song.
As the leader of the tribe, Wanyan Aguda could not do such a thing that would make other tribes laugh, so he walked away on the spot.
After Wanyan Agu fought back, he began to integrate the Jurchen tribes and prepare to rebel against the Liao Dynasty. At first, Yelu Yanxi did not pay attention to the Wanyan tribe with thousands of people. It was not until the Jin Kingdom became stronger that Yelu Yanxi began to send heavy troops.
Encirclement and suppression, but were repeatedly defeated by the Jin Kingdom. Later, Yelu Yanxi personally led an army of 700,000 to conquer the Jin Kingdom, but was defeated by Wanyan Agu and 20,000 cavalry at Hubu Dagang. The Liao Kingdom began to retreat steadily.
