Changfeng Thousands of Miles End Han Song

Chapter 217 Do Officials Have Loyalty?
It is not a pity to kill the villains of Qingfeng Mountain.But how to kill in order to receive the greatest benefit?That's another story.

Moreover, Lu Qian also wanted to take advantage of the Qingfeng Mountain incident to officially announce to his "colleagues" in Jianghu and Green Forest all over the world: I, Liang Shanbo, and you are not really the same person.

He had wanted to do this for a long time.But there is no suitable opportunity, and now is the right time.

Lu Qian could accept that this cottage only robbed money and food.He could even endure the death of some people during this period.Just like Peach Blossom Mountain, they go down the mountain to grab food from time to time, and plunder passers-by from time to time, but they don't kill people for money, and they don't hurt people's lives.

But if people like Qingfengshan burned, killed and looted Hongguoguo, and they didn't treat people as human beings, their crimes would be unspeakable.Then, Liang Shanbo would hardly agree.

When he sent an order to Deng Fei to "complete his mission of eradicating evil," the latter rolled his horses' hooves, and Zheng Tianshou, the white-faced man who stayed behind in the stronghold, was also captured.

After finding out that Qingfeng Mountain was empty, Deng Fei left 300 people to follow the fleet, and led 200 people to kill them to Qingfeng Mountain. However, the master of the village, Jin Maohu Yanshun, was a vigilant person, he put oil on the soles of his feet, and took the first step. He slipped away and was never captured.

After hearing the report, Lu Qian didn't care, he asked Deng Fei to lead the troops to escort Wang Aihu and Zheng Tianshou, and escorted three or forty people from Qingfeng Mountain to Qingfeng Village together.Since there is a public trial to decide the life and death of these people.I think there will be a benefit from it.

But after he himself enjoyed a batch of grain, grass, fish and meat offered by Kongjiazhuang tremblingly, the army continued to march towards Qingzhou Fucheng.

Brothers Kong Ming and Kong Liang stood by the Jishui River and looked at the back of the Liangshan Po army going away, and they breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.The two couldn't help but thank Song Sanlang in their hearts.When they told them to come forward, they took the initiative to report Song Jiang's name, and Lu Qian also betrayed their face.The two brothers just lost a sum of money and food, so they would not thank Lu Qian for his kindness, but only thanked Song Jiang in their hearts.

But they don't know that Hei Saburo's relationship with Liang Shanbo is just embarrassing.

But while sleeping, Lu Qian forgot how the Kong brothers fell into trouble.He only remembered that the two brothers were very ordinary, and they gained a firm foothold in Liangshanbo only because they had worshiped Hei Saburo as their master.But they completely forgot that the reason why the two brothers took over Baihu Mountain and became bandits was because they had a dispute with a rich man from the same town, and they killed all the rich men from his family. Gather 700 people and rob houses.

In this way, these two brothers are not good people.No matter how angry he was, he was able to commit a bloody crime that killed all the good and bad people in the family, and he could get a glimpse of the leopard and know what kind of bird people these two brothers were.

The sky is high and the wild is wide.There are five hundred soldiers and horses in Liangshan Park, dozens of flags are planted, and they gallop eastward in the dust.Deng Fei followed the army with the people from the examination department and put on a big show in Qingfengzhai. Although Lu Qianren didn't show up, Liang Shanbo's image in Qingzhou suddenly became brighter.In the past, the people in Qingzhou only heard that Liang Shanbo was doing justice for the heavens, eradicating violence and bringing peace to the people, but today they saw it with their own eyes.As a result, Liangshanbo's reputation among the people is also getting better day by day.
Although Li Zhong and Zhou Tong of Taohuashan were frightened after hearing this, they still defected to Liangshan with Qin Ming's insistence.In fact, none of the three is an idiot, and now there is only one of the three mountains in Qingzhou. Don't you take the opportunity to go to Liangshan Po Dazhai, and the Qingzhou government will settle the bill in the future?
Peach Blossom Mountain is weak, and their family alone cannot support the entire Qingzhou government.

Lu Qian laughed happily when he saw the three of them fleeing.Li Zhong and Zhou Tong don't care about it, but the Thunderbolt Qin Ming can be of great use.Strong martial arts skills, as well as the experience of fighting and commanding troops, are exactly what Liang Shanbo urgently needs now.

"Two heroes, don't worry. This Peach Blossom Mountain you are waiting for is different from Qingfeng Mountain. Mr. Lu's ears are very far away, and he has never heard of the heroes of Peach Blossom Mountain committing such indiscriminate killings. "Peach Blossom Mountain is one of the three mountains in Qingzhou. The one with the best reputation, whenever he blocks a road and achieves great success, he only seeks a fortune to buy him.It’s not just those who don’t know what is good or bad—people only want to protect their own rights and interests.Such behavior is absolutely acceptable to Lu Qian.Otherwise, there is no need to mention the four heroes of Huangmen Mountain, Deng Fei, Meng Kang, Yang Lin, as well as the original Du Qian, Song Wan and others.Just looking at his own behavior, even though he was "eliminating violence and bringing order to the good", not all of the Xiangyong guards who were killed were guilty and evildoers, just like the original Tang family.

"Lu Tiha is also an old acquaintance of these two heroes. He once told me about Brother Zhou Tong's wedding. Although he is a bit powerful at Grand Duke Liu, he has abundant financial resources and some of his wedding greetings are in order. Right. Is this a forced marriage?" Lu Qian's words made the little bully so embarrassed that his face turned red.That thing is really not glorious.But the certainty in Lu Qian's words made him feel at peace.

"If you do this, it's ten times better than Qingfeng Mountain's lecherous king and dwarf tiger." The master, for a snatched woman, is a person who can fight with his brothers.Although some famous person in later generations praised him for being lustful, he didn't cover it up, and he was outspoken.But the realm of Layman Wen Ling is really beyond the reach of ordinary people. Lu Qian just felt that he was such a slut, a woman who would not hesitate to raise a knife and fight with his brother.What's more, that guy also eats people.

It's definitely not that he was upset at looking at the human king and dwarf tiger, nor is it that he feels wronged for Hu Sanniang.A talented person with a handsome appearance of one zhangqing wants to marry. On Liangshanbo, he also needs to marry the head of a leopard, but he promised to Wang Xiaohu.

If so, in his eyes, the little overlord Zhou Tong is still a brother who can be united, and Wang Xiaohu and his like, forget it.

Qingzhou Prefecture is Yidu City, located in the south of Qingzhou Prefecture, forty or fifty miles away from Jishui in the north.This city is extraordinary.According to official history, during the decades when Song, Jin and Mongolia intersected, this city had extraordinary significance.Yang Miaozhen, a member of the Red Coat Army, has been invincible in the world for 20 years with a pear-shaped spear.It's almost hard to forget.

However, that era was still far away from the present. Today's Qingzhou City has a high city, a deep pool, and tight barriers.Although Murong Yanda had long since lost his ancestral skills of fighting and starting a business, at least there were still Zhen Sanshan Huang Xin and Xiao Li Guanghua Rong in the city.The fact that these two were military attaches gave everyone in Qingzhou Mansion a lot of confidence.

Although Lu Qian didn't really break Yiducheng's thoughts.Huang Xin and Hua Rong were not given for nothing.

Seeing Liang Shanbo's army approaching, Huang Xin did not dare to neglect, and sent people out of the city day and night to inquire about the news.On this day, a flying report was received, and a large number of people from Liangshan attacked Qingzhou City from the main road.Huang Xin got some information.Terrified, he immediately put on his whole body and ordered the city gate to be closed.With Xiao Li Guang Huarong, they ordered the army horses and went to the city to look out.Sure enough, flying dust was billowing, and hundreds of horse troops rushed into the sky like a flame.Dozens of large and small flags floated up and down in the dust, and the black soldiers and horses came from farther away, covering half of the wilderness in the western suburbs.

Seeing the ferocious approach, Huang Xin ordered the guards to prepare bows and arrows to fly stones, hang the suspension bridge high, and only take defensive positions.The cavalry from Liangshan rushed to the moat with banners unfurled.Seeing that the soldiers and horses in the city were closed behind closed doors, they didn't come to shout and scold them. They only went around the city for one week, and then set up camp five miles outside the western suburbs.

Not long after, Liang Shanbo's army arrived.Although there is no naval battalion, there are more Taohuashan troops, and there are 3000 people.At this time, it was the beginning of winter, and the farmland had been harvested, and the fields on the plain were flat and stretched as far as the eye could see.Huang Xin and Hua Rong were looking out from the city, and Murong Yanda also went up to the top of the city. They saw hundreds of tents, like countless white hills, neatly laid out on the ground.

Only one big camp has been set up in Liangshanbo. At the tents, each of the ten tents has a flag fluttering in the wind.

The sun was setting in the western sky, and the afterglow was shining obliquely, making the Liangshan Army camp, where everyone was wearing armor, more and more distinct.

Woo woo dong dong, the sound of drums and horns.Huang Xin looked at it for a long time, then sighed to Murong Yanda: "The army of thieves is so strong, how many weapons did Hu Yanzhuo lose to Liangshanpo?" ?There is nothing to say about calling Huang Xinsheng.

There are secret works turning back from other city gates.But it was also hung from the city with ropes and hung up to the city.When Huang Xin asked, he said: "In front of Dazhai, there are big flags with Lu characters and Lu characters." , Qingzhou is by no means an opponent.So while stepping up the defense of the city, he asked Murong Yanda, the magistrate, to revise the emergency documents for the second time, and sent people to deliver them to the troops of Deng and Lai.

It was Dengzhou soldiers and horses who were in charge of horse administration. After receiving Cai You's handwriting, they did not dare to disobey.But Dengzhou is about to move, how can Laizhou see no movement?There was also Wang Yong, the supervisor of soldiers and horses, who led two thousand troops to follow Ma Zheng and went west to rescue.

It's a pity that the soldiers and horses of the two prefectures of Denglai are also rotten.They entered the river at the estuary of Jishui by boat and stopped in Boxing County, which was located less than forty miles away from the place where the Liangshan cavalry army and the navy battalion separated.The entire voyage can be said to be closer than that of the Liangshan Army.But so far, the Denglai reinforcements that have not moved further west from Boxing are still on their way to Qingzhou City slowly.

After Ma Zheng received Murong Yanda's letter asking for help, he and Wang Yong looked at each other and smiled, then put the letter behind him and ignored it.It's not that Ma Wang and Wang are arrogant, they don't take the magistrate Murong Yanda seriously, it's because they have self-knowledge in their hearts.A probe was sent earlier to find out the news about the soldiers and horses in Liangshan Park.

The number of people is not large, but each of them is equipped with armor. How can the soldiers and horses of Denglai and Denglai be comparable?
What kind of virtue is their own soldiers and horses, don't the two of them have a B number in their minds?

Liang Shanbo is a real bandit, not the civil unrest they experienced in the past.It is said that although the court of Zhao and Song Dynasties was rich in money and food, and the commercial economy was also very developed, the peasants and people lived in hardship.The Zhao and Song courts couldn't help annexing the land, and the crops were not enough to provide them, so the masses rose up and caused chaos.

Since the first peasant uprising broke out in the third year of Zhao Boss's reign as emperor, more than 160 peasant uprisings broke out in the official history during the 230-year rule of the Northern Song Dynasty.On average, once a year and a half.But now in the Water Margin version of the last years of the Northern Song Dynasty, the number of uprisings is more than that of the official history.

It's just that most of them are small and medium-sized peasant uprisings, without brains and difficult to form a climate.

Ma Zheng and Wang Yong lived together for half their lives, so they naturally encountered peasant uprisings. The reason why the former was able to assume the position of military commander in Dengzhou was because he was able to lead troops to suppress civil unrest.

It is precisely because they are familiar with the inside story that the two understand the real horror of Liang Shanbo.

Peasant uprisings in the past ranged from several thousand to tens of thousands of people, while small ones were only a few hundred or thousands of people.And most of them are peasants, with no regular weapons in their hands, and no armor to cover their bodies, so they spin up and down.Even if they are weak and timid among the generals of the imperial army, they are very courageous towards the poor and the common people.They have bows and crossbows and soldiers in their hands, and they are like a tiger like a sheep when dealing with the peasant uprising army, and they are like a broken bamboo.

But what about Liangshanbo?
They don't know the total strength of the troops.But among the thousands of people dispatched, there are both land and water infantry and cavalry, and there are 500 cavalry alone. They are all strong and armed, and everyone wears fine armor. It's not enough to fill in the gaps between people's teeth.

Don't look at 4000 people, don't look at it as a forbidden army system, but as long as swords and soldiers meet, it will be a mob.

Who made them never have the heart to practice soldiers and horses?

The more you train in peacetime, the less blood you bleed in wartime.If you don't train at ordinary times, you can only suffer from knives in war.They are officials, not green forest heroes. If they want to talk about the loyalty of the world, when things come to an end, they know that they can't do anything, but they still want to show their strength.Ma Zheng Wang Yong is an official, who has ever heard of an official being loyal?
