Chapter 1228 Xiao Tang returns, Chai Jin and Fang Jinzhi
Xiao Tang sneered in his heart when he heard what Fang La said. If Fang La was really in that situation, would Fang La really be willing to allow him to save his life? There were two questions. Now that he was talking to himself like this, he was just trying to show his indifference.
The Nijiao rebellion is now strong, and it has been able to overpower its own position.
But of course Fang La would not have known that even if he led the Manichaeans smoothly in the early stages of the rebellion, his momentum would take a turn for the worse after the elite troops of the Western Army in Bianting were transferred to Jiangnan to quell the rebellion. Instead, he would eventually be crushed by the Song army.
It was also even less likely to predict that after all the Manichaean rebels were wiped out, the situation in the North would change suddenly, and the time left for the Song Dynasty to turn around and suppress the remaining rebel forces in the country was already running out.
Not much left.
Now I see that the leader of this sect, Fang La, is very high-spirited and has a posture of pointing out the country, but Xiao Tang is a little less ambitious and wants to swallow up the country. People like Zheng Biao in the Manichae sect even laughed wantonly. Xiao Tang's subordinates
When all the brothers saw that each other underestimated their elder brother, some of them were impatient and looked angry. Seeing Lu Zhishen, he slapped the table with his big palm. Even if he was about to attack Zheng Biao and others, he was stopped by the people beside him.
Lin Chong quickly stopped him.
However, there was no trace of anger on Xiao Tang's face. Instead, he raised the cup in his hand, looked at Fang La and said calmly: "Thanks to the kindness of Leader Fang, you and I are now fighting against the imperial court together. We should be of the same spirit and support each other."
Rescue. Everything is as agreed before. The brothers in the village led by Pang Wanchun from Baiyun Mountain on Liangzhe Road and Shi Bao from Wuyishan Fujian Road are still guarding the village. If you have any important matters, please let us know.
Just send someone to inform my two mountain brothers.
The two cottages are not far from the coast near the East China Sea. The two coastal areas of Wenzhou Bay on Zhejiang Road and Xinghua Bay on Fujian Road will also leave some brothers to take care of the sea vessels. Several brothers from Zhejiang Silong will travel north and south by sea.
Mobilize, since Fang La’s golden words promised to take care of us in case we lose to the government and army, I also say so... If your religion is unable to resist the imperial army that comes to conquer, the family members of the leader of Fang can also surrender to the north.
The earth came to seek my refuge..."
Fang La couldn't help but stiffen when he heard what Xiao Tang said, and then he snorted heavily, secretly saying to you, Xiao Tang, that you are pretending to be on an equal footing with me now, but really when I, Manichaeism, dominate all the states in the south of the Yangtze River,
Even when we are gathering righteous soldiers to attack Bianliang in Tokyo, how can you be worthy of talking to me like this when you are the only one who can gather a few green forest gangsters with your roar?

After recuperating and reorganizing in Hangzhou, Fang La was ready to mobilize Fang Qifu, Lu Shinang and other leaders of the sect to assemble several rebel armies as the vanguard, and take advantage of the situation to move north to attack Suzhou City, another important state capital in the southeastern border of the Song Dynasty.
After all, Suzhou is the hometown of the treacherous and evil Zhu Meng. In his official residence and the paradise created by plundering people's wealth and anointing, his private wealth is piled up, and the huge wealth he has amassed is also the wealth that Fang La is determined to obtain.
As for Zhu Meng himself, Xiao Tang heard that the Manichaeans planned to gather the people after capturing Suzhou to publicly gouge out the eyes, cut off the ears, bleed and cut the flesh of the traitor who taught the Jiangnan people to hate him, and then cook him alive.
Although the law is extremely cruel, it is also a very suitable retribution for this treacherous and corrupt official, one of the "six thieves".
Among the two mountain villages in Qingzhou, a group of naval leaders who were transferred to the south of the Yangtze River anchored their ships on the coast of Xiuzhou (near today's Shanghai), southeast of Suzhou and northeast of Hangzhou, and left some brothers to guard them.
Now that Tang was openly leading an uprising, it was time to lead his brothers back to Erlongshan Dazhai in Qingzhou to make detailed arrangements in order to deal with the government troops who were likely to be ordered by the imperial court to come for conquest.
"Xiao Yi, how is the situation over there with Brother Wu?"
The brothers under his command had already ordered their troops and were preparing to leave. On the eve of departure, Yan Qing listened to Xiao Tang's inquiry and immediately replied: "There is no need for brother to worry. Although Brother Wu was tortured by those gangsters in prison,
But now after diagnosis, treatment and recuperation, there is no danger of life. I also sent a few careful confidants to place Brother Wu in the Taiping car, so that he can be watched on the road, and my brother can go and visit at any time."
Xiao Tang nodded, and then looked back to the top of the city tower of Genshan Gate in Hangzhou. He saw Fang La and several important figures from the Manichaeans watching him leave with his troops. It is said that they were the leaders of the rebellion.
At least Fang La should go out of the city to see him off in person, but now it seems that Fang La has also determined that Manichaeism is sweeping Jiangnan, and the grand hegemony it can create will definitely far exceed that of the soldiers and horses in the mountains and green forests commanded by the other party.
Therefore, from now on, Fang La no longer wants to be on an equal footing with the other party, no matter whether it is Ren Xia Xiao Tang or the co-master of Green Forest Mountains "Quan Yu".
Xiao Tang shook his head slightly, and only raised his hand towards Fang La slightly above the city tower, and was about to order his brothers to set off. However, on the other side of the team, Chai Jin also looked towards the Genshan gate tower in Hangzhou from time to time.
In the past, the look on his face was also thoughtful.
At this time, Yang Zhi, who was urging his troops to set off, happened to be near Chai Jin. When he saw Chai Jin looking a little strange and curious, he asked: "Master Chai, why are you just sitting here in a daze?"
?”
Chai Jin's expression changed slightly, and he actually showed a bit of embarrassment. He quickly replied to Yang Zhi: "It's nothing. It won't be too late. I'll follow my brother's instructions and get on the road as soon as possible."
Chai Jin originally had a decent conversation when greeting people, but he rarely behaved as flustered as he did now, which made Yang Zhi feel a little surprised. Not far away, Xu Guanzhong saw Chai Jin's behavior and knew this.
He, a little whirlwind, walked back and forth between his brother and Fang La's group all day long, taking care of all the major and minor matters of negotiation between them. There was also a woman from the Manichaean church who often went to chat with Chai Jin, intentionally or unintentionally. Xu Guanzhong
Although he felt something strange, he also had his own concerns in his heart. Although Xu Guanzhong noticed some things, he did not tell Chai Jin face to face...
Above the gate tower of Genshan in Hangzhou, Fang La watched coldly as Xiao Tang and his men were about to leave, with a solemn expression on his face. Nowadays, the leader of Manichaeism who often follows Fang La has gradually realized that this man, who was originally a forthright person in the world,
The popular leader of this sect has begun to more and more deliberately establish his majesty in front of everyone. After all, after the rebellion was completed, Fang La became the most respected person in the Ninth Five-Year Plan, and now he has begun to imagine wearing the Pingtian crown on his head.
, the day when he wore the dragon robe of Gong and founded the country, even sitting on the throne of the world. Both Fang La himself and the more sophisticated leaders of Manichaeism also knew that gradually, they could no longer be the same as before.
If we still live together as brothers within the religion, we will naturally have the majesty of an emperor once we become emperor.
But at this time, there was still a young woman in Manichaeism who completely ignored the prestige that Fang La deliberately wanted to establish in the sect. She rushed to Fang La like a gust of wind, and still shouted with some anger: "Oh, Dad, why did you let them go like this?"
"Hmph! Rather than forcing Xiao Tang to stay here with his men, letting him go back to the north to lead the green forest soldiers and horses to fight against the imperial court would be of some use to the great cause of our religion. What's more, you said That person, Xiao Tang also taught him to preside over various matters of negotiation with the sect, and he would still come back to me sooner or later to discuss important matters. By then, my Manichaean sect will dominate the south of the Yangtze River and dominate the entire southeast, and Xiao Tang will have to deal with that man again. How can I have any confidence when negotiating?"
After Fang La spoke in a high-spirited voice, he immediately turned to look at the young girl who was pouting and coquettishly, with a rare look of doting in her eyes, and said: "My son, you really look down upon Xiao Tang's subordinates. Did that little whirlwind firewood get into your eyes?"
