Chapter 1314 Flying Arrow Secret Letter, another ruthless man who refuses to submit to the court
Hu Jun and Hu Xian, who were uneasy in their hearts, were overjoyed when they heard that Xiao Tang said that they were willing to surrender their brothers. They immediately paid homage to Xiao Tang in unison: "If Xiao Renxia ignores the old grudges, we two brothers will surrender."
Hold the whip and drop the stirrup, and I will repay your great kindness by dying!"
Immediately, a military officer came forward and helped Hu Jun and Hu Xian remove the ropes that bound them. After Xiao Tang comforted the two brothers with kind words, he immediately turned his head and his eyes quickly fell on Lei.
Heng, Yang Xiong, and Li Yun.
First, Li Yun opened his mouth but hesitated, while Lei Heng and Yang Xiong looked at each other. After all, it had not been long since Hu Jun and Hu Xian defected to Song Jiang's army. If they were like their brothers, they would happily agree.
Xiao Tang surrendered and immediately drew a clear line with Song Jiang, which made the three of them even more speechless.
Among them, Li Yun is okay, but Yang Xiong did not defect to Liangshan because of Song Jiang and Wu's calculations. He was already desperate, so he previously regarded Song Jiang as his benefactor, and his ability to surrender to the imperial court was out of his own wish.
.Lei Heng also had a similar experience to Yang Xiong. He was an old friend of Song Jiang. If he immediately turned his back and surrendered just because he was captured by Xiao Tang, wouldn't it be a betrayal of gratitude if he turned around and became an enemy of Song Jiang again?
Righteous, but didn’t he become a villain who was Chao Qin and Mu Chu?
"Now Song Jiang is following the imperial decree and has come to arrest our brothers. Seeing that his spirit has been dampened, what are the chances of winning? If it is just to fight for an official position, why am I unwilling to become an official? Quan Yin is so ignorant in today's world.
, even if you are forced to achieve some meritorious deeds after suffering hundreds of deaths, most of them will be buried in vain without being rewarded. How will you be allowed to see peace in the long run? "
Just when Lei Heng, Yang Xiong, and Li Yun were thinking secretly with complicated emotions, they heard Xiao Tang say in a deep voice, but the co-owner of Green Forest and Mountains immediately changed his subject and said: "But I also know the difficulties of you three, if
Forcing you to immediately become an enemy of Song Jiang also destroys the loyalty of the world. Li Dutou and Yang Jieji, when we had the honor to meet you two times ago, we were in love with you two, and Lei Dutou and I were in Yun in the early years.
We have become acquainted in the city and county, which can be regarded as a kind of friendship. Remembering the past friendship, I also sympathize with the thoughts of the three of you. I will go to my hometown in Liangshan and stay temporarily for a while. When I return to the village, I will make my own decisions and decide where to go in the future.
.....I also hope that the three of you can think clearly during this period."
After hearing this, Lei Heng, Yang Xiong, and Li Yun felt relieved. Now they could say that they no longer harbored any hostility towards Xiao Tang. Instead, they felt guilty and grateful. The leader of the pending account also loosened their bonds for them. Lei
Heng and others gathered together and bowed to Xiao Tang, and were immediately taken out of the tent and were temporarily guarded by the strong soldiers in the village.
Later, Xiao Tang heard reports that Zhang Wang, Sun Wu, Fan Quan, Gong Duan, Gong Zheng and other enemy leaders had all died in the chaos, and Song Jiang's cavalry general Du Bo was killed by two of his own masters, Lu Junyi and Shi Wengong.
He was seriously injured under the flanking attack, but because he did not intend to fight to the death, he planned to attract the two enemy generals first and then break out of the encirclement. As for the two leaders of his own who faced rare opponents, Lu Junyi knew the military situation well.
Not to be negligent, but he not only admired Du Bo's martial arts skills, even when fighting with swords, but also respected his character of being loyal and loyal to protect his master without fear of death. As for Shi Wengong, a blood brave man with a proud and arrogant nature, he seemed to disdain to fight with him.
Lu Junyi used the method of bullying the minority to kill Du Bu, and the methods used by the two of them more or less left some leeway. Although Du Bu was hit by three bullets in his body, he was under the attack of Lu Junyi and Shi Wengong.
He was seriously wounded and bleeding profusely, but he still managed to carve out a bloody path and galloped away to the west.
Xiao Tangxin said that although Du Chuo was bound by Song Jiang's loyalty and was a first-class warrior, in terms of personal bravery, he was now severely wounded and it would be more difficult for him to cause any trouble when the two armies attacked him. .Everyone has his own power. It would be a pity if he died in this battle. At least he can still survive now. Maybe when we meet again in the future, there will be a chance that the positions of the enemy and ourselves will change.
Now most of the naval warships commanded by Liu Menglong have been captured, and the large and small ships that were mobilized have either been burned or fallen into the hands of Xiao Tang. There are also Li Jun and other naval heroes guarding the waterways, and the imperial court's conquest army, If you want to cross the lake to attack Liangshan Dazhai, you have to fly directly with wings on your back. At least within this period of time, you will no longer pose any threat to Liangshan Bo.
Should the next step be to go all out, mobilize the army to land and gather, defeat Song Jiang, and Gao Qiu's troops to attack Jeju? The current war situation not only involves the safety of our own strongholds such as Erlong Mountain and Shuibo Liang Mountain, but also the safety of Jingdong Road. The imperial court would certainly pay attention to the situation as the battle progressed. Xiao Tang knew that even if he had the upper hand in the previous battles, he could not afford to neglect it in the face of confrontation with the entire empire.
However, when Xiao Tang temporarily led his troops to camp on the opposite side of Liangshan Mountain in Shuibo and discussed with Xu Guanzhong, Lin Chong and other brothers, he was ordered by the general to land ashore on the north side and patrol the area to guard the reinforcements of the officers and troops. Yang Zhi and Zhu Jingsuo On the other side of Tianbo's army, there were fast horses galloping to Xiaotang's camp to deliver an urgent report.
It turned out that after Yang Zhi's troops landed forty or fifty miles to the north, they bumped into the enemy troops commanded by Li Zhu, who also wanted to be on guard against troops landing quietly in the direction of Liangshanbo with the intention of making a detour and sneak attack. However, As soon as the soldiers and horses of the two sides met, there was no fierce fighting like the one at the shipyard. Li Zhu led his troops to retreat three miles, and the situation was in confrontation with the soldiers and horses on Yang Zhi's side. But Yang Zhi set up camp near the water, I knew that Xiao Tang commanded the horse, infantry, and naval forces to take the water to Bobian Shipyard, and to protect the Liangshan Dazhai of Shuibo. This was the top priority. Therefore, he did not act rashly, but was closely vigilant. The movements of Li Zhu’s troops and horses.
However, on the night of the day when the camp was set up, a soldier among the patrolling infantry in Yang Zhi's camp was hit by a hidden arrow shot from a dark place outside. Although the arrow hit the soldier directly, there was an arrow above it. The arrow had no tip, so the shot only caused a burst of pain in the soldier's buttocks, but did not injure him at all.
The sergeant on patrol was surprised, so he immediately picked up the arrow and looked at it carefully. When he saw that there was silk tightly wrapped around the arrow shaft, he immediately rushed to the stronghold to report to Yang Zhi and Zhu. Jing knew it, and when Yang Zhi and Zhu Jing heard that they had a separate relationship, they immediately read it first, and then ordered their horses to gallop over to the shipyard camp to teach Xiao Tang to read it before making a decision.
When Xiao Tang heard the report from the soldiers on horseback, his mind suddenly changed, and he immediately took the silk and opened it to look at it. He saw a few lines of thin calligraphy written on it. After Xiao Tang read it, his face suddenly became happy, and he He immediately said: "Okay! Now it seems that there is no need to sit and guard the Liangshan stronghold, but it is a good time to march in a large scale. It is also a good time to defeat Song Jiang's troops in one fell swoop, and then go all out to find Gao Qiu to put an end to it!"
