Chapter 1158 The trust between brothers, the routine in the Water Margin
What happened next was indeed very routine.
In the main camp of the two-mountain army camp in Qingzhou, Xiang Chong and Li Gong witnessed with their own eyes that Quan Yu, the co-leader of several green forest mountains, personally took off the mask that covered his face, and once passed through Mangdang Mountain to kill Bianjing.
Cheng Ziming and Hu Chun, two minions under the command of Commander Gao Qiu and Taiwei Gao, rescued Mei Zhan Mei Dalang, who was also a senior figure in the world in the past, and also taught Ren Xia Xiao Tang, who was admired by Xiang Chong and Li Gun.
He suddenly appeared in front of the two of them.
From being shocked to being confused, to Xiao Tang putting him in the officialdom wearing a Xie Zhi mask again, Xiang Chong was the focus of Green Forest's dual-track operation, Li Gun and Li Gun made it clear, and their mentality also changed from
Shocked and surprised, such as Xiaoxuanfeng Chai Daguanren who was praised by the powerful people in the world of Hebei Province, Chao Gai, the king of towers on Jingdong Road who could attract heroes to join him, especially the timely rain Song Jiang who was able to get both sides while walking in the rivers and lakes.
Cao Mang, who lives in the green forest, has always admired those heroes with excellent reputations in the world, and Ren Xia Xiao Tang's reputation is far better than that of several of them, but for the green forest thieves who more or less have to fight against the government
, the gap between them and Xiao Tang is that Ren Xia is also a close minister of the emperor and a high official in the court.
But now, Xiang Chong and Li Gun were shocked to hear that Xiao Tang and the duplicitous officials and ministers in the court were not in the same group. They were actually supporting several people in the green forest, and the noise they caused was far greater than that of other green forest heroes. They were already worried.
The thought of admiration comes first. Now, no matter whether you are uniting with Ren Xia or the iron-faced Xie Zhi, you don't have to stay in a mountain stronghold all your life. Whether you are rising up against the imperial court, as Xiao Renxia said, you are only afraid of the impending national disaster.
The day is not far away, when the time comes to raise troops to resist foreign humiliation, isn't it true that a man should do some earth-shattering things while living in this world!?
Xiang Chong and Li Gun immediately patted their chests to Xiao Tang in the commander's tent and said that they would die in service and that they were willing to join forces with Xiao Renxia and other heroes to gather together for righteousness. However, Fan Rui, the master of Mangdang Village, a devil in the world, was still a figure even on the road.
Without the assistance of the Eight-Armed Nezha and the Feitian Great Sage, it was naturally difficult to survive alone. Immediately, Xiang Chong and Li Gun expressed their willingness to return to Xiaotang, and persuaded Fan Rui to come together to teach the three heroes of Mangdang Mountain and join them in Qingzhou.
Juyi. Although Fan Rui’s thoughts are not yet known, and the true identity of the co-owner of Shushan has been revealed in front of Xiang Chong and Li Gun, Xiao Tang still agreed to let Xiang Chong and Li Gun go together.
He then returned to Mangdang Village to persuade Fan Rui to join the army with the remaining troops.
Although it is difficult to know a person's heart, Xiao Tang knew how Song Jiang in the original work made Xiang Chong, who was originally fighting against each other, Li Gong immediately willing to risk his life for him, and it was also he who refused Xiang Chong and Li Gong.
One of Gun stayed in the stronghold as a hostage, and the other returned to Mangdang Mountain to persuade Fan Rui's proposal. Instead, he gave the two heroes who had just met him the greatest trust. This also made Xiang Chong and Li Gun even more grateful to Song Jiang, and even
He bluntly said that if Fan Rui refused to surrender, he would be captured in the stronghold and then make peace...
Xiao Tang not only knew that Xiang Chong and Li Gun were the kind of green people who were typical in today's time. If you respected him and trusted him, you would not only be heartbroken, but they would even trust you with their lives.
He knew clearly what decision Fan Rui would make if both of his sworn brothers were willing to surrender to Juyi. Now that he had conquered all the troops in Mangdang Mountain, all the conditions were met, and in addition, he and Mangdang Mountain had a secret relationship.
Contact, what variables can there be?
.....................
At dawn the next day, when Fan Rui, Xiang Chong, and Li Gun also arrived at the military stronghold in the two mountains of Qingzhou, he immediately looked at Xiao Tang, who had already come out of his tent to greet him, and who had already taken off the Xie Zhi mask on his face.
Seeing all kinds of heroes gathered around him, Fan Rui's expression became more complicated.
When Xiao Tang saw Fan Rui, he smiled slightly, stepped forward and saluted, "Although I have brothers in the Xiao family who have contacts with Guizhai, you and I haven't seen each other for a long time. Is Master Fan okay?
Although I once got acquainted with three heroes from Guizhai as 'Xiao Tang', the heroes from Mangdang Mountain had some disputes with me as 'Quan Yu'. I knew that the leader of Fan Village had an unruly temperament.
I'm afraid I won't have the chance to explain my origins to you. We met at war before, so don't be surprised."
Fan Rui was silent for a while. After a while, he suddenly shook his head and laughed loudly: "Xiao Renxia, when you and I first met in Xiaozhai, I said you just couldn't stand it.
You are a traitor who persecutes loyal people, but you still have to wear a big turban in the court. Although I respect you, I am not the same person. I, the devil in this chaotic world, make false promises in this chaotic world. I am afraid that the world will not be chaotic, and I will fight with the heroes of the green forest.
Although it's great to argue with each other and laugh at you, it still depends on the looks of the Bianjing Emperor and the powerful traitor. Naturally, they are not heroes who can achieve unparalleled hegemony...
But now it seems that not only 'Ren Xia' has the most loyalty, but Quan Yu, the co-leader of several mountains, is far beyond my younger brother's caliber. Xun Xian first taught me that I had spoken arrogantly before, but it was Yelang who was arrogant. How difficult is it to compare with Gui?
There are many heroes in the village, but Xie has the reputation of Ren Xia. If I hadn't thought that you were an important official in the court after all, the brothers in Xiaozhai would have done great things together with Xie. Now, regardless of Xie's reputation as Ren Xia, he still has the title of Iron-faced Haechi.
, all the young men are so impressed with their admiration, I, the soldiers and horses of Mangdang Mountain, should be the leaders of Xiao Renxia, and we will swear to die in service!"
Fan Rui said loudly, and then he, Xiang Chong, and Li Gun fell down on the ground and worshiped Xiao Tang. When Xiao Tang saw this, he immediately stepped forward to help the three of them, and asked them to sit down in the tent.
After some friendship, Fan Rui got a rough idea of Xiao Tang's purpose in officialdom and Green Forest's two-way operation through the mouths of Xiang Chong and Li Gun. There was no doubt between them at all, and they told each other their heartfelt stories about their lives.
Fan Rui stood up again and invited all the heroes from the two mountains of Qingzhou to come to Mangdang Mountain Stronghold. He ordered his subordinates to kill cattle and horses, and waited for Xiao Tang and many of his subordinates to reward the three armies. It was decided that they would finish the work immediately after only tonight.
They brought the objects, led the oxen and horses, carried all the money and food in the village, packed their luggage, burned the gates of the village, gathered the men and horses, and followed Xiao Tang to the two mountains of Qingzhou.
During the banquet, Xiao Tang and Fan Rui chatted happily. He also knew that this demon king was not only good at swordsmanship. He had learned martial arts in the martial arts world, and he soon became accustomed to using a meteor hammer, which made the generals afraid to approach. This was considered a luxury.
Although Fan Rui was a wandering Taoist priest when he was walking around in his early years, he knew some Taoist methods of breathing and nourishing Qi, but it was clearly stated in the book.
He didn't know the battle formation. Compared with Xiang Chong and Li Gun who followed Li Kui and fought fiercely in the book, Fan Rui's best skills were more inclined to the Jianghu route. In the real attack between the two armies, he didn't understand the formation.
The role it can play in cutting situations is also very limited.
It’s no wonder that Fan Rui initially had the ferocious ambition to annex Liangshan and Qingzhou mountains, and also led Xiang Chong and Li Gun to defeat Shaohuashan Shi Jin’s troops. However, as he defected to Liangshan and the scale of the war expanded,
However, Fan Rui seems to be somewhat unknown. He was originally the lord of a mountain, but after he was appointed to various leadership positions in Liangshanbo, he only became one of the seventeen infantry generals along with Song Wan, Du Qian, Mu Chun and others.
Together with Xiang Chong of the same faction, General Li Gun was still under his command from the beginning, and was gradually assigned to Li Kui as a helper... Fan Rui felt a little like driving high and taking low, but later he
This devil incarnate devoted himself to learning Taoism. After defeating Fang La, he was one of the surviving leaders but did not want to be an official, so he became a wandering Taoist priest with Zhu Wu and traveled around the world. Later, he joined Gongsun Sheng and became a monk for the rest of his life, and he also got a good death.
Although Fan Rui's ability will not be of great use when the two armies are fighting, he can pull more than 3,000 troops along the Mangdang Mountain Road. In the Jingdong Road boundary, he is second only to the Qingzhou Mountains and Shuibo Liang Mountain under my control.
He can be said to be a capable person in managing affairs within the stronghold... Xiao Tang thought to himself, and also thought that Fan Rui had worshiped Gongsun Sheng as his disciple in the original work, so he told him that since Brother Fan Rui also
As a Taoist, if he gets an opportunity in the future, he will make a recommendation for Fan Rui to Luo Zhenren, the Taoist master of Erxian Mountain in Jizhou. There is also a Taoist priest named Gongsun Sheng on Liangshan Mountain, and he will definitely have the opportunity to participate in some discussions with him.
If the Taoist method is approved by Zhenren Luo and Gongsun Sheng, Xiao Tang also agrees to teach them the Five Thunder Methods of Tiangang that he has long been familiar with.
Fan Rui, a bandit leader who knew some Taoism but was better at making lies, was just like Qiao Daoqing, who was sent by Xiao Tang to Yinmachuan in Jizhou, Liaoning Province to pay attention to the situation in the north.
He got the idea of practicing secretly from an expert. Therefore, he felt happy when he heard what Xiao Tang said. At least he was still living in the mortal world, and Fan Rui was sincerely willing to assist his newly beloved brother in accomplishing great things.
And what even Xiao Tang himself doesn't know now is that he intends to teach Fan Rui to worship at the Erxian Mountain, and also intends to make him, the devil incarnate, end up with a good ending in the original work. Fan Rui, Qiao Daoqing, these are originally Green Lin.
The reckless but ambitious hero will eventually get what he wants. After understanding the secrets of Xuanzong Taoism, he will attract a Taoist master who will eventually go down in history and who is also determined to save the country from danger and join Xiao Tang.
Under his command, he worked with all his heart and soul to turn the tide together with a group of heroes...
