Chapter 1112 Chapter 1053 Fair Party

Chapter 1112 Chapter [-] Fair Party

Morning mist floated on the river.

Thirty miles east of Zhenjiang, orange flames flickered occasionally on the misty river beach.When dawn was approaching, there was movement on the water gradually. Boats parked on the simple and dilapidated piers on the edge of the river beach, followed by the sound of water, people's voices, and the sounds of chariots and horses.Carriages loaded with goods came ashore via the waterside plank road that had been in disrepair for a long time.

The middle-aged man who looked around forty, with only half of his left arm, looked at the nearby woods for a while, and then came over here with three confidantes holding torches.

There were about ten horse-drawn carriages ashore, and more than a hundred people accompanied them. They got off the boat, tied up the carriages, and moved the goods quickly and methodically.These people had already noticed the movement by the forest, and when the old man with the severed hand came over with his entourage, there were also people from here to welcome them.

The leader here is a slightly older middle-aged Confucian scholar. The two sides approached each other from the dark sky. When they could see clearly, the middle-aged Confucian scholar smiled and clasped his fists. The middle-aged man on the opposite side broke his hand. It was not easy to salute, and he tapped his right fist on the chest: "Mr. Zuo, please come here without any problems."

The person who came was Zuo Xiuquan, the world-renowned patriarch of Zuo. He clasped his fists and said, "Mr. Duan has worked hard, and I'm sorry to trouble you to take the risk again this time."

"How can one family speak two different languages. Mister Zuo treats me as an outsider?" The young man with the severed hand frowned.

"Yes, yes." Zuo Xiuquan nodded with a smile, "Look who else is here."

After he finished speaking, a figure accompanying him slowly stepped forward and said, "Uncle Duan, do you still remember me?"

This figure was dressed in green forest clothes that were easy to handle, but it sounded like a woman's voice.The old man with the severed hand squinted his eyes, blinked for a while, finally recognized the woman in front of him, and said tremblingly, "Yes, is it a woman...the young lady? It's Miss Yin Ping, why are you here?"

"Being separated from Uncle Duan for a long time, and thinking about it in my heart, this is here."

The woman is tall and tall, and her voice is gentle and natural, but in the firelight, with bright eyebrows and starry eyes, she has a compelling heroic spirit.It was Yue Fei's 19-year-old adopted daughter, Yue Yinping.She walked up to the middle-aged man with the broken arm, held his hand, and looked at the broken arm with a slightly sad look in her eyes.The middle-aged man with a broken arm shook his head.

"You, you are the body of a thousand gold, how can you..."

"Uncle Duan, don't look down on me. I never fell behind when we went to battle together to kill the enemy."

"Yes, yes." Hearing her talk about killing the enemy, the middle-aged man who lost his hand burst into tears, "Unfortunately... I was the one who fell behind..."

"Uncle Duan fought to the end, worthy of anyone. Being able to survive is a good thing. Father was very happy when he heard about it... By the way, Uncle Duan, look, who else is here?"

As soon as she said this, the other party looked towards the pier again, and saw the figures over there, unable to distinguish their specific appearances for a while, he was excited, and said: "They are all... they are all behind the Wei army. Brother?"

Yue Yinping nodded.Also at this time, not far away, the wheels of a carriage were stuck in the sand by the river beach, and it was difficult to move. A figure was seen holding the shaft and the wheels from the side, and whispered: "One, two, three... Get up—" The carriage loaded with goods was almost lifted from the sand by his own strength.

Hearing the voice, the middle-aged man with a broken arm stretched out his finger: "This is, this is..."

The figure smiled "haha" and ran over: "Uncle Duan, do you still remember me?"

The man who ran over was tall and tall, but looked quite young.The middle-aged man with the broken arm said: "Young General, you, you... This is a dangerous place, how can you come together."

"Mr. Zuo is here. Uncle Duan is here. How can my Yue family stay out of it?"

The "Major General" that the other party was talking about was naturally Yue Fei's son Yue Yun. He approached him and hugged the other party.Regarding the severed hand, he was not as sentimental as his sister.

Yue Yinping said at the side: "This meeting in Jiangning is unusual, and it may bring many changes to the future situation of the world. Our brothers and sisters followed Mr. Zuo to learn more. But Uncle Duan, being in it this time, things I'm afraid I can't stay any longer after it's over, and I'm going back to Fuzhou with us."

After she finished speaking, the middle-aged figure with the broken arm on the opposite side was silent for a moment. Then, he stepped back solemnly, and in the flickering firelight, his arm suddenly came up, and he gave a solemn military salute.

On the edge of the river beach where the night wind was light, there was a sound.

"Beiwei Army! Duan Siheng! Return to the team..."

Carrying the mountain on his back, the body has already promised the country, and this body becomes a ghost.

It's for, back Wei!

……

The convoy of carriages left the river bank and headed west along the early morning road.

Duan Siheng, a middle-aged man with a broken arm who was originally a member of the Beiwei Army, was sitting in the front carriage, leading the way for everyone, while pointing and talking about the surrounding situation.

At this time, the sky was not clear, and there was still a large area of ​​fog around the road, but following Duan Siheng's guidance, everyone recalled many things in the past.

"There used to be a village over there..."

"Is Quanfengji still available..."

"A little further to the northwest, we'll be right there, and we'll beat Yan Xiyin!"

"We walked this road...it was that defeat..."

Yue Yun stood in the car, chattering about these things.

Zhenjiang was originally the core of the defense line in the south of the Yangtze River. The Beiwei army trained soldiers here. Junwu cried and killed his brother-in-law on the hill beside the river. The son of heaven, the man who was still the prince at that time, ran around inside and outside the city, screaming, fighting non-stop. When he was shot by the arrows of the Jurchens, many local people rushed to the battlefield and fought against the Jurchens. fight.

As for Yue Yun and the others, they had directly tore open the Jurchen's center formation in that battle, beheaded the Jurchen general Alubao, and then stabbed their soldiers to the front of Wanyan Xiyin's formation.At that time, the four sides were defeated, and it was hard to turn the tide, but Yue Fei still hoped for that desperate blow, but unfortunately, in the end, he couldn't kill Wanyan Xiyin, nor could he delay Lin'an's collapse.

Duan Siheng participated in that battle, and so did Yue Yinping and Yue Yun, recalling the bloodbath of that battle, he still couldn't help but sing with generosity and passion.

Later, Jun Wu succeeded to the throne in Jiangning, and soon after he gave up Jiangning, fighting and fleeing all the way, and once returned to Zhenjiang.The Jurchens drove Jiangnan's millions of soldiers to chase and kill them all the way, while hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians, including the Beiwei Army, fled. They returned to the battlefield. Duan Siheng was cut off in that escape, and fell behind after falling into a coma. .When he woke up, he survived by chance, but because the journey was too far, it was difficult to follow him to Fuzhou.

Based on his experience as an officer in the Beiwei Army, he gathered some refugees from nearby to protect himself. Later, he joined the Fair Party and got a small leader in it.After the Fairness Party gained momentum, the court in Fuzhou sent Cheng Zhouhai and others to approach them. Although the Fairness Party led by He Wen no longer recognizes Zhou Junwu as the emperor, the small court has always treated each other with courtesy. They even sent some food and supplies here as a way of making up for it. Therefore, when the forces of the two parties are not connected, the top leaders of the Fair Party and the Fuzhou side are not completely tearing their skins apart.

And after several exchanges like this, Duan Siheng also connected with the Fuzhou side again, becoming one of the internal agents that the Fuzhou side can use here.

"...I am now under the command of Gao Chang Gao Tianwang, one of the five kings of the Fair Party..."

The morning mist was blowing by the morning wind. After recalling the past battles with Yue Yun and others, Duan Siheng wiped away his tears, calmed down, and talked about the current situation of the Fair Party to Zuo Xiuquan, Yue Yinping and others.

"The current situation of the Fair Party is often known to outsiders. There are five great kings. They used to be called the "Five Tigers". The biggest one is of course the well-known "Fair King" Mr. He Wenhe. Now This place in the south of the Yangtze River is nominally headed by him. It is said that he came from the southwest, and he sat and discussed with that Mr. Ning back then. But now, it doesn’t look like…”

"It's nothing to argue for him being the boss, but under Mr. He, the situation is actually very chaotic. I didn't say it was a mess." Duan Siheng said, "The Gao Tianwang I'm following is relatively simple. If you want Speaking of character, he likes to fight, and his soldiers are the fewest among the five, but his military discipline is strict, which is somewhat similar to our Beiwei army. I voted for him back then. This is the reason. With these elite soldiers under his command, he can fight, So no one dares to provoke him casually. Outsiders call him Gao Tianwang, which refers to Chi Guotian among the four heavenly kings. He has no conflicts with Mr. He on the surface, and he listens to Mr. He's command the most. Of course, we don't know the specifics. clear……"

"King Fairness and King Gaotian go down. Xu Zhaonan is called the King of the Wheel, but it doesn't mean the Four Heavenly Kings. He is one of the Ten Temples of Yama. This person came out of the background of the Maitreya Sect and the Great Bright Sect. Yes, most of those who followed him were followers from the Jiangnan area. Back then, Da Guangming Sect said that there would be 33 catastrophes in the world. Those who eat talisman water, there are those who say they are invulnerable to swords and guns, they are really brave and fearless, just because the world is suffering, and after they die, they can enter the vacuum hometown to enjoy the blessings. In the past few times when they fought Lin'an soldiers, some people dragged their intestines and ran on the battlefield. He has scared people to tears, he has a lot of people, and many people really believe that he is the reincarnation of the reincarnation king."

"Xu Zhaonan is Shi Baofeng. He has a mixed staff and deals with all kinds of sects. It is said that he does not put on airs. Outsiders call him the King of Equality. But his greatest ability is not only to collect money, but also to make money. The fair party is doing it now. At this level, at the beginning, of course, they were robbing things everywhere, ordnance and the like, and used it immediately. But after Shi Baofeng got up, he organized a lot of people, and the Fair Party was able to repair and rebuild the ordnance..."

"Today, the Fair Party has raised millions of troops, and more than [-]% of the ordnance is managed by him. He can handle artillery, gunpowder, and various supplies. Most of the trade and transshipment channels have his people. He and Mr. He used to have a good relationship, but now that they hold such a large piece of power, there will be friction from time to time, and the people on both sides are fighting fiercely. Especially when he is called the "King of Equality" In the future, listen, 'King of Equality' and 'King of Fairness', don't they sound like they are going to fight..."

"As for the fifth person today, Zhou Shang, outsiders call him King Yama, because he is cruel and ruthless, and he is the most vicious murderer. Of all the landlords and squires, none of them will end well if they fall into his hands. His subordinates are also the most vicious group of people... Mr. He set the rules back then. The Fair Party would collect statistics on the local tyrants and wealthy every time they attacked a place. Those who do good deeds can be lenient, as appropriate, and should not be exterminated. However, in the place of Zhou Shang, these people died cleanly every time, and some were even buried alive, skinned, and tortured to death. It is said that this is the relationship between the two parties Also very nervous..."

At this time, the morning breeze was blowing, and the sky behind had already turned pale. Duan Siheng had probably introduced these details of the Fair Party, and Yue Yinping thought about it: "These few have their own characteristics."

Duan Siheng smiled wryly in front of him: "If you think that the FAIR Party is what these five people look like, you are wrong."

"These five people are just the five leaders of the FAIR Party today." He paused and said, "Back then Jiangnan was defeated and the Jurchens were rampant. Your Majesty... took people to Fuzhou again. Mr. He used FAIR Although there were some people gathered around him when they started an incident in the name of the Communist Party of China, soon there were forces all over the south of the Yangtze River under the banner of fairness and taking food from the rich. Later, these forces joined forces one by one, saying that they followed In the name of fairness, they all say that they have followed so and so, but in fact, the person at the top may not even know that there are a bunch of such and such younger brothers under him..."

"At that time, there were fair parties almost everywhere in the south of the Yangtze River, but the place was too big to gather all of them. Mr. He issued the "Fair Code", which set many rules and told outsiders that anyone who believed in my rules was a fair party. People, so everyone does things according to these rules, but it is up to them to decide who to take refuge in. Some people worship a big brother of the fair party at will, and there are big brothers above the big brother. Under the name of Mr. He or Xu Zhaonan or whoever..."

"For more than a year, Mr. He and the other five kings have been the most famous and occupy a large area. They have recruited and trained many regular troops. But if you go to Jiangning, you will know that from the top to the bottom one There are factions at every level, and they are also fighting for territory and interests inside, and they are fighting fiercely. Among them, Mr. He has the "Seven Sages", Gao Tianwang has the "Four Towns", Xu Zhaonan has the "Eight Commanders", and Shi Bao Feng's subordinates are the 'three talents', Zhou Shang has the 'seven kills'. Everyone still fights for territory, and sometimes fights in the street with open swords and guns, which makes the ground full of blood, and the corpses cannot be collected... "

After all, the Fuzhou imperial court’s eyeliner arrangements and information transmission to the outside world were not as systematic as those in Southwest China. At this time when Duan Siheng talked about the internal situation of the Fair Party, Yue Yinping, Yue Yun and others were dumbfounded. Even the well-trained Zuo Xiuquan At this moment, they were all frowning, struggling to understand what he said.

"Also, don't think that the Fair Party is just these five great kings. In fact, apart from the members of the army who have officially joined the army, those heroes who are named or not, actually want to make their own world. In addition to the five most famous names, in the past six months, there have been other factions such as "Luanjiang", "Dalongtou" and "Jishengwang". They say that they are members of the Fair Party and follow the "Fair Code" to do things , thinking about trying to show off my power..."

"After all, the four heavenly kings are not full, and there are only two Yan Luos in the ten halls. Maybe they will be more ruthless. In the future, the heavenly soldiers and generals will be able to have their own names. Alas, Zhenjiang is now the territory of Gao Tianwang. You We can't see so many things, let's take a detour, and when we get to Jiangning, you will understand..."

The morning sun revealed, the clouds flew away, and Duan Siheng drove the carriage, telling everyone about these strange things, and at the same time leading the team to the west towards Jiangning.On the way, he met a group of guards wearing blue scarves and setting up checkpoints. Duan Siheng went over to make some incisions on the opponent, then slapped the opponent on the head, and ordered the opponent to leave. Look over there. Still gesticulating his muscles, he stepped aside dejectedly.

"We are now one of the 'Four Towns' under Gao Tianwang, the second general under 'Zhenhai' Lin Hongjin, my name is...uh, Broken Hand Dragon..."

Duan Siheng was a little embarrassed when he said it, Yue Yun wanted to laugh, and Yue Yinping asked, "Why the second general?"

"Below the general, there is the second general. This is for the convenience of everyone knowing where you rank..."

As Duan Siheng spoke, his voice became smaller and smaller, which was very embarrassing.The surrounding members of the Beiwei Army all laughed.
