Recovering the Central Plains was not a matter of a day, and it was basically impossible to achieve it only by relying on these few Northern Expeditions. Yue Fei returned to Ezhou after liquidating the results of the battle.Although the Northern Expedition did not achieve the most ideal goal, it was exciting enough.Xiao Qiushui and his Shenzhou Jieyi followed Wei Yan's advice many times and participated in the process of encircling and suppressing Jin Bing, and made great contributions.After hearing that the Northern Expedition was over, these chivalrous and courageous Chinese heroes also felt unsatisfactory. However, although they did not understand military strategy, they also knew the difficulty of insufficient food and grass, so they would not feel dissatisfied because of it.

Fortunately, their dissatisfaction did not last long.

In the tenth year of Shaoxing, Wanyan Wushu launched a coup and seized the Jin regime. After he came to power, he abolished the previous contract with Song Dynasty and led the troops to attack Shunchang. Zhao Gou was very nervous about this matter and immediately sent Yue Fei to send troops.

When Wei Yan heard that Jin Ren broke the contract, although he had expected it, he still couldn't hide his joy.Three years ago, after Yue Fei's Northern Expedition ended, he heard the news that the imperial court signed a peace treaty. Although Yue Fei strongly opposed it, it was not as influential as the peace ministers around the emperor.At that time, the struggle between the main peace faction and the main war faction in the court was extremely fierce. Some ministers even sent their masters to assassinate Yue Fei, but they were blocked one by one by Wei Yan and Wei Linxu who was arranged by him beside Yue Fei. Yan then went to the Tangmen, which he had reached a cooperative relationship with, to seek manpower to kill those people one by one.

Now that the Jinren have broken the contract, Yue Fei has another chance to send troops, and Wei Yan has a chance to realize his own goal.

On the night when Yue Fei dispatched troops, Xiao Qiushui came to find Wei Yan.

He is more mature than when Wei Yan saw him last time, Wangqing Tianshu had a great influence on him, and Wei Yan, who practiced Wangqing Tianshu, could have a certain feeling with him, which made him feel a little uncomfortable .But the good thing is that neither Wei Yan nor Xiao Qiushui are the powerful Jiang family brothers. As long as they have the common goal of resisting gold, they will not turn against each other.

"It's great that General Yue can go north again. Although we have organized several operations in the past few years, most of them are small troubles. Only by following General Yue can we feel that we are actually doing something."

Wei Yan's reaction to these sincere words was only a nod, but Xiao Qiushui could feel that he did not have the slightest contempt, so he kept silent, waiting for what Wei Yan was about to say.

"I heard that Zhao Shirong from the Power Gang has helped you many times?"

"That's true." Xiao Qiushui said, "Sister Zhao helped me a lot."

It can be seen from the titles that they have become close friends. Wei Yan is not surprised at this point. Zhao Shirong and Xiao Qiushui are both very charismatic people. Maybe they have already admired each other in the ring that day ... But this also made Li Chenzhou's position seem unpredictable again.

Li Chenzhou's strategy is to devour the Song Dynasty and destroy the gold, which is destined to cause a conflict between him and Yue Fei who maintains the Zhao family regime, but now Zhao Shirong wants to help Yue Fei, which makes Wei Yan a little uncertain about Li Chenzhou's strategy .

What's more, Yan Kuangtu, who had disappeared for a long time, had a very strange attitude towards Li Chenzhou.This eccentric old man always seeks revenge. Li Chenzhou is his apprentice and betrayed him. This kind of hatred is absolutely deep, but Wei Yan has never heard that Yan Kuangzhu has any intention of revenge against Li Chenzhou, which made Wei Yan dumbfounded for a long time .

He needs to think about it, and fortunately, Zhu Shunshui and the Murong family have restrained the power gang now, which also gave him more time.

"Do you have any intention of cooperating with the Power Gang?" Wei Yan asked.

Xiao Qiushui gave a wry smile, "It's not yet to the level of cooperation, it's just that although we meet on a narrow road, although swords are on the verge of death, there is no pressure of life and death like in the past. Among them, the sword king and others have also helped us with some small favors."

"Really?" Wei Yan fell into deep thought after hearing Xiao Qiushui's words.

"Brother Wei, let's see what we can do in this battle?" Xiao Qiushui asked.

"Although the north is occupied by the Jin people, there are still people secretly resisting. According to intelligence, this resistance force has formed an alliance. The ability of General Yue this time is well known in the world. The Jin people know that he will lead the army again and will definitely send out their masters. Assassination, Lin Xu's fierce practice of tiger claws back then may not be enough to deal with it. I need to accompany the army all the way to protect the safety of General Yue. I can't contact the forces in the rivers and lakes like in the past, so I hope you can help with the northern resistance organization. The leaders got in touch and persuaded them to cooperate with General Yue in the fight and attack the Jinren... This is also the strategy set by General Yue."

Xiao Qiushui responded, but did not leave immediately. He looked at Wei Yan and hesitated to speak.

"What's wrong?" Wei Yan asked.

"The emperor already had a heart for peace. He allowed General Yue to send troops this time only to take down Shunchang. Once Shunchang is taken down, I'm afraid...he will step down and return to the imperial edict."

What Xiao Qiushui said was exactly what Wei Yan was most worried about. He clenched his fists and sighed: "Everyone in the court knows that the emperor is in a safe place. It is inevitable that he will issue an edict, but I am sure that General Yue will not obey, but..."

"However, General Yue's disobedience just gave the treacherous officials an excuse to get rid of him." Xiao Qiushui has seen the world in recent years, and has understood these things. He took a deep breath, and although he was still full of worries, he still comforted: "People's hearts What's more, it's the same principle from ancient times to the present that it's not easy for those treacherous ministers to harm him."

"It's not easy for treacherous ministers to harm General Yue. The worst case is that I sneak back to the capital without telling General Yue and kill them all." Reminiscent of the actions of these treacherous ministers, Xiao Qiushui also had similar plans to Wei Yan's.When he thought about the fact that left and right were nothing more than this, he gradually calmed down.It was already late at night, Wei Yan was exhausted with the troops, Xiao Qiushui couldn't disturb him any more, so he took his leave and left.Wei Yan was not in a hurry to rest, he looked at the dark night and felt uneasy in his heart.

He can kill the traitor, but what if it is the emperor who wants Yue Fei to die?

Although Wei Yan himself didn't want to believe it, he did have a faint premonition in his heart.

After defeating Shunchang, Yue Fei disregarded the imperial court's order to return his master, and marched all the way to the north, smashing the "Iron Buddha Tu" and "Kai Zima" that Wei Yan was proud of. He followed Yue Fei on the battlefield and blocked all kinds of assassinations for him. They had countless successes, but every success made them feel joyful.

"Mr. Wei, come and see." Yue Fei would excitedly gesticulate on the map without laying down a solid city, "We have already conquered here, here... as long as we conquer here and here again, we will have Now is the opportunity to capture Kaifeng, and then we can return to the old capital."

He expressed such hope a long time ago, but obviously this time they have the strongest possibility that this hope will be realized.

"When that day comes, maybe I can change into another color of clothes." Wei Yan said.As he said when he met Yue Fei at the beginning, he never changed into other colors of clothes, and every day was a palpitating black.

However, after looking at it for a long time, everyone in the barracks felt cordial to this blackness.

"If Mr. Wei changed into another color of clothes, I'm afraid I'm still not used to it." Yue Fei joked, he suddenly remembered something, and asked Wei Yan, "The team that assisted in the pursuit in Yancheng that day Is the young man who cut off the head of the enemy general who is the leader among the Jianghu people the Xiao Qiushui you mentioned?"

"It's him." Wei Yan said after thinking about it for a while.

"He is really a hero." Yue Fei said, "Mr. Wei may not know that when I was young, I also yearned for the heroism of the Jianghu heroes. If it were not for the national disaster, I am afraid that I would become a Jianghu man who wields a sword."

"The lives of people in the Jianghu are more bitter than those in the stories and legends, and there are all kinds of people in the Jianghu, not all of them are heroes."

Yue Fei laughed after hearing Wei Yan's words, "There are also Jianghu people who are not heroes but are equally amiable and respectable. I once knew a Jianghu woman with a very interesting name, but in recent years wars have been raging, and I don't know what happened to her. If it is convenient for Mr. Wei, he can also inquire about that young man named Xiao Qiushui."

Wei Yan's heart trembled, but there was no emotion on his face, "I don't know the name of that heroine?"

Yue Fei was about to speak, but there was a report asking for a visit from the door.

"General, another edict has arrived." The soldier who sent the message said.
