Chapter 1020 Liangshan came to envoy, the enemy of the enemy is the ally?
Shi Jin reached out and took the light armor in his hand, and said to Xiao Tang in a daze: "This is the light armor that Brother Tang Long has carefully crafted over many years? I heard that it is not easy to make it from materials.
When my younger brother was about to go to war, brother Tang Long also made me a suit of willow leaf armor. Moreover, my younger brother thought that it would not be difficult to protect myself with martial arts, so it would be okay for my elder brother to give this armor to other brothers."
Xiao Tang knew that although Shi Jin had a lot of luck following him a few times before, his horse fighting skills had already surpassed the level in the original work. Now he could probably even compete with the Five Tigers level warriors, but the battle between the two armies was still going on.
It's not a one-on-one battle. It's due to his personality. Shi Jin's temperament is still a bit irritable. Although his martial arts are excellent when fighting alone, in the original work, Shi Jin's record of leading troops in battle is still unsatisfactory.
At the same time, Xiao Tang thought that it would be best for Shi Jin to have an extra layer of insurance to prevent him from being easily plotted against a nine-patterned dragon among thousands of troops.
Of course, if Xiao Tang asked himself, Shi Jin was one of the characters he had the most favorable impressions of in the Water Margin. It could also be said that he had some partiality. Xiao Tang did not want Shi Jin to follow his original trajectory, because he could not
Shen was easily killed by an arrow.
It's just that Shi Jin is so brave, but when he was about to refuse, he heard Xiao Tang change the topic and smiled to himself: "Dalang, I also heard from the brothers in the village that I will kill him that day."
The dog officer Wang Yi, the prefect of Huazhou, who rescued the painter who was framed by a traitor, is now willing to live in the stronghold. I also heard that you and Wang Yi's daughter Yu Jiaozhi seem to be very close these days.
..."
"......ah?"
After hearing this, Shi Jin was startled for a moment, then Teng Teng's face became embarrassed, and he hesitated in his words: "Why did my brother talk about Su Ban's quarrel? The father and daughter were not from the martial arts world, but Quan was involved in a lawsuit.
You are still guilty and have to live peacefully in the stronghold. I should take care of you more, so why should my brother entertain me with this matter?"
Lu Zhishen, who was standing aside, saw that Shi Jin looked a little embarrassed, and couldn't help laughing loudly: "Brother Shi Jin, you are also a cheerful person. The Sa family's pair of tricks are not blind. They have already seen that brother, you and the Wang family's daughter
One has feelings for each other, the other has intention. Since brother Xiao Tang has also asked, the first male must marry and the first female must marry. This is a major matter of human ethics and the gift of the Wuchang. Why is it so mother-in-law and mother-in-law! You two should just make it earlier.
I also have a lot of wedding banquets for this marriage!"
Originally, Xiao Tang was just lamenting the changes in everyone's lives. He was very pleased to hear that Shi Jin had a rough encounter with him and drew his sword to save Yu Jiao Zhi, the daughter of the painter, who was getting closer and closer, although he also wanted to joke with Shi Jin.
, but it was completely different from Lu Zhishen, who had something in his heart and kept it hidden, with such a loud voice that he announced it in front of many brothers in the main hall of Baozhu Temple. All the brothers present looked at him with smiles on their faces.
Seeing this, Shi Jin also felt that he was losing face. He looked at Lu Zhishen with some embarrassment, and laughed and cursed: "Brother Zhishen, have you ever had less fun drinking with you in the past? Besides, you are a great monk.
, it’s just enough to eat a lot of wine and meat, what kind of karma are you talking nonsense about?”
All the brothers in the main hall of Baozhu Temple couldn't help laughing when they looked at Shi Jin's embarrassed expression. Ou Peng and his brother Ma Lin, who was also from Huangmen Mountain, looked at each other, and then said with a smile: "They all say swords It must be given as a gift to the martyrs. With Dalang's martial arts skills, when we send out troops in Dazhai, we are only focused on striving for glory and vying to be the first to fight. Naturally, we are worthy of this precious armor. Not to mention that brothers are about to have good things, this precious armor can also be used as a stronghold. Isn’t it a congratulatory gift from Zhong to Dalang?”
Today's Shi Jin often comes into contact with the colorful Yu Jiaozhi in Erlong Mountain. It does not have to be like the trajectory in the original work, where he wanders to the boundary of Dongping Prefecture and what is called Wazi in the old age of the dragon and the tiger? Li Ruilan's prostitutes were familiar with each other. Now that he was really interested, he heard the brothers' teasing repeatedly. Even Chen Da and Yang Chun beside him were looking at him playfully. Shi Jin couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. Immediately, he refused to stay in the main hall for a long time, so he laughed and cursed a few more times, and had no choice but to run out of the main hall holding on to his soft armor...
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
Two days later, when Shi Qian went to the area around Dulonggang in Dongping Prefecture to inquire about the news, the three leaders Zhang Qing and Sun Erniang finally returned to Erlongshan Dazhai to resume their duties.
Xiao Tang listened to Shi Qian's eloquent report that Chen Xizhen and Zhu Yongqing were not the only ones to get along. Even Yun Tianbiao, who had been killed by him before, cut off his beard and discarded his robe, was sent to Puzhou to command the envoys because of his defeat in the war. The controller also recruited Zhao Xin from Zhaojia Village in Yizhou, the Gaoliang family and other local tycoons who planned to wipe out the Dazhai bandits in Shandong. To put it bluntly, they planned to seek revenge in Erlong Mountain, but Yun Tianbiao and Zhu Yongqing from Zhujiazhuang fell. They are also related to each other, so the officers and soldiers who also command the territory of Puzhou and the volunteers from all over the country who are confidently recruited seem to be preparing to move in recent days. Dongping Prefecture, where Zhujiazhuang is located, and Bozhou, which is adjacent to the north, and southwest Facing the three adjacent Puzhou commanders, the officers and soldiers also began to mobilize. Judging from the momentum, it seemed that they were not only planning to wipe out the forces of Qingzhou Erlong Mountain and Qingfeng Mountain in one fell swoop, but also were about to wipe out Shui Bo, who was already at odds with Zhujiazhuang. Liangshan.
Shi Qian later reported that it seemed that a new official from Bianliang in Tokyo had been dispatched to Jingdong Road to take charge of the prison department. It was also rumored that because of the climate developed in several villages in Shandong, he wanted to supervise various prefectures and counties. It is an official matter to arrest bandits. However, Xiao Tang is very concerned about the gathering of several large groups of bandits in one place. As for the transfer of various prison departments based on human relations, it is common for them to do so, so he would like to mention some personnel transfers in the prison department. I didn't take it seriously.
A turtle is looking for a tortoise, a fish is looking for a rotten shrimp... Chen Xizhen, Zhu Yongqing, and Yun Tianbiao are destined to be together. Naturally, when they gather together, they will not let go of the Green Forest Dazhai that is gathering on the border of Shandong... ....
Xiao Tang thought in his heart, although he hated these goods deeply, but because of this he could not despise these mortal enemies. The last time Yun Tianbiao was killed by two mountain brothers and he lost his helmet, armor, beard and robe, it was largely because of That guy was too big, and the morale of most of the main force of the official army collapsed at the foot of Erlong Mountain when Hongtian Leiling fired artillery. At that time, that guy took advantage of the situation and launched a fierce attack, which taught Yun Tianbiao that guy suffered the bitter consequences of the defeat. Now and then, After all, Chen Xizhen, Zhu Yongqing and others are said to be more hypocritical and cunning than Yun Tianbiao, and Xiao Tang does not want this war to cause any unnecessary casualties to his brothers and soldiers.
And all the leaders in the main hall of Baozhu Temple heard the news from Shiqian that Chen Xizhen, who was in a quarrel with his brother in Bianliang, Tokyo, had also arrived in Shandong to wipe out the Green Forest strongman, and the sensationalist Yun Tianbiao was coming to Qingzhou again.
The bad luck of the two mountains, coupled with the fact that Dulonggang Zhujiazhuang and the village had already formed a rift, most of the brothers in the village stood up angrily and asked for orders, vying to follow Xiao Tang and his troops down the mountain to attack Zhujiazhuang.
.
For a moment, the hall was full of people, but Xiao Tang hesitated and thought for a moment, because he knew very well that although this battle was bound to be fought, several opposing forces merged into one place, and many people who were good at fighting gathered together.
.The war will be dangerous, and Xiao Tang will not be able to ensure that all his brothers can return to Dazhai alive. When the war begins, how should he deploy to minimize the probability of casualties of his own leaders as much as possible?
Seeing that his brother who was sitting at the head was silent, many brothers in the hall were also fighting more and more fiercely. Among them, the more impatient leaders such as Lu Zhishen, Qin Ming and other leaders rushed to ask for orders. They were already shouting until their faces were red and their necks were thick. They sat in Xiaotang.
Xiao Jiasui, who was tilting his head and frowning slightly, was about to stand up to persuade him. Suddenly, a leader from outside the main hall came to report: Zhang San and Li Si, who were receiving guests from all over the hotel at the foot of the mountain, reported that Liangshan had paid the Shenxing Taibao Dai Zong and
Another unnamed leader came to visit, saying that because of the endless war between Liangshan and Zhujiazhuang, he also knew that the army of officers and soldiers and folk warriors gathered together, and they would inevitably use troops to conquer Liangshan, so Chao Gai
He then sent Dai Zong to discuss with the leaders of the whole army, and negotiated for the soldiers and horses from several villages in Shandong to form a temporary alliance and jointly launch an army to attack Zhujiazhuang.
Note: Bozhou was called Dongchang Prefecture in the original work of Water Margin, and the change of local name in historical records was explained in the previous chapter 680...
