Xiao Tang and Song Jiang were respectively in charge of the central army. Under their command were Zhu Wu and Xu Guanzhong on one side, and Wu Yong and Liu Min on the other. They dispatched their troops and began to continuously invest their troops. Bian Xiang and Shi Jin on the left, Shi Xiu on the right,
The four generals of Hua Rong also saw Zhu Wu ordering the leader to blow the horn, and each led their troops to press forward towards Song Jiang's main formation from two directions. They saw that the battle group was getting bigger and bigger, and Song Jiang's army was about to attack.
The first battle was defeated, and Zhu Wu took advantage of this juncture to add several more troops to advance, which also increased the pressure on the opponent.
Seeing the overwhelming momentum of the enemy troops on the opposite side, although Song Jiang, Wu Yong, Liu Min and others all looked solemn and showed off their energy, it may not be a battle that determines life and death. The tough battle will continue. We also have horse and infantry troops on our side.
The troops did not enter the battle. Although they did not invest all their troops and still had the remaining strength to hold on to the formation, they might not be able to withstand the attack of Xiao Tang's troops. Song Jiang still secretly warned that this is a military state under the rule of the Song Dynasty.
It is a territory occupied by Xiao and Tang's separatist regime, but it also has opportunities to reverse the decline.
Although our army is in decline now, it is after all a military force sent out under the orders of the Song Dynasty. Although Xiao Tang has strong soldiers and horses, he only occupied a few green forest villages. If Liangshanbo, Erlongshan and other large villages were defeated,
He can only turn into a bandit like a bereaved dog and run around, and will eventually be surrounded and exterminated by the army...
Song Jiang secretly thought in his heart, in fact, he also knew that if he was defeated by Xiao Tang's army and allowed the strong bandits who originally defended Liangshan in Shuibo to fall and wreak havoc in the borders of Jeju, Gao Qiu would definitely blame him. Based on Song Jiang's attitude toward Gao Qiu now.
He understood more and more clearly that as far as his situation was concerned, he probably had no escape route just like Xiao Tang.
And Song Jiang has also sent Dai Zong to travel all night and night to return to the Jeju Administrative Office to report to Zhang Shu Ye urgently that Xiao Tang has taken advantage of the emptiness of the state to raise troops. Although it is not yet known how the government and army will react. Song Jiang also understands that he can only
He can lead his troops to defend this place and fight to the death without retreating!
On the open field, Xiao Tang's cavalry and infantry troops mobilized frequently. The sharp blades suddenly raised were like a forest, and the rays of light shone coldly in half of the sky. When the three armies moved, the momentum fell like Mount Tai, and all the soldiers gathered in accordance with the military commander's orders from the Chinese army.
Formed into a formation, the sonorous sounds made when the armors rub against each other gather in one place, making people feel extra solemn and solemn when they hear it.
The troops in the front line under Song Jiang immediately gathered into a staggered and dense defensive formation. The infantry archers of each team rushed to the rear of the infantry formation. Although based on the distance between the two sides, if the enemy's horse rushed forward,
All they were left with was a chance to shoot a few arrows, but they still had to do their best to cause a certain amount of damage to the enemy.
In the formation of the two armies, the Tianbo Army commanded by Yang Zhi and the Benlei Army commanded by Qin Ming were still chasing and killing the soldiers and horses of Fengtai. Almost all the other leaders under Song Jiang were also nervous and even nervous.
They were preparing in panic, preparing to resist the second wave of offensive that Xiao Tang's troops were preparing to launch.
However, among the soldiers and horses assembled on the north side of Song Jiang's army, several leaders of the army were relaxed and contented to watch the battle between the two groups of cavalry, and also looked at the flags fluttering in the direction of the main formation, but they were unable to do so.
They all had smiles on their faces, smiling mockingly and ferociously in the direction of Song Jiang.
"So I said that if Song Jiang accepted the court's invitation to leave Liangshan and went straight to Xiao Tang, we would not have done anything for him. What's more, Xiao Renxia has many powerful generals under his command, and he had previously fought with Chao Gai, Li Jun,
Mu Hong seems to have some friendship, but he doesn't know the ins and outs of us green forest thieves who have recently fled to Liangshan... Even if we join him to make a big splash in this world, we will definitely be inferior to others.
Back then, I had taken advantage of the combined forces of the Three Mountains to attack Zhujiazhuang and verbally hinted to Xiao Renxia that today I would turn against the enemy and directly attack the center of Songjiang's formation. This would be a great achievement to teach Xiao Renxia's men to reduce the majority of their casualties...
.. Only by taking advantage of our merits can we teach him to be willing to reuse us."
Li Zhu's expression was very indifferent, as if he had expected that the situation would develop to this point, and then he said leisurely: "Even if I thought that Xiao Tang was a little foolish when he was acting in the green forest, if he defected to
You will definitely be tied up under his command, so you went to Liangshan to join Song Jiang. But now it seems that, looking at the world's green forest lords, there is a chance to achieve hegemony. Except for the Maniche leader Fang La in the south of the Yangtze River, he is the only one who has a chance to achieve hegemony.
Let me be a hero.
It’s not that I, Assistant Li, have to rebel against you, Song Jiang. It’s just that all the traitors in the court are stepping on your head to dominate you. They even made it clear that they want you to lead a group of brothers to death but you still have to swallow your anger... Originally, it was
You made your fortune by being a bandit in the green forest, but you keep saying that your loyalty is worthy of the Song Dynasty, haha... You are willing to let the powerful traitors manipulate you, but do you know that I, Li Zhu, am not willing to do so?"
Li Yan, who was next to Li Zhu, immediately said after hearing this: "My uncle has made great foresights and has benefited a lot from his practical teachings. Now I can finally enjoy it and no longer have to follow Song Jiang's arrogant officialdom!"
"
Gathering around Li Zhu were He Ji, Chen Yun, and Guo Ji, the bandit leader who was called the "Three Generals of Longzhong" on the Green Forest Road. Among them, Guo Ji also spat and cursed fiercely: "Back then.
Following the Taoist priest... No, when brother Li Zhu came to meet Xiao Tang, Song Jiang and other green forest tycoons, I originally thought that Xiao Tang was still wearing a Xie Zhi mask to cover his appearance, and he did not show his true face when making friends with our brothers.
, must be a self-proclaimed chivalrous figure, so he despises our hero who is accustomed to doing green forest activities. The reason for his behavior will not be known until he rescues the tiger-killing Wu Song in Hangzhou and rises up against Fang La.
On the other hand, Song Jiang, brother, I thought that because of his nickname of Timely Rain, he is also a wise man who respects the heroes of the green forest and can do great things together. But he only cares about being recruited by the court, and is humiliated by the killings of the officials.
In the end, that guy was the lord of Liangshan, but he was so weak! During the recruitment process, there were a few people like Zhang Qianban of Cai Taishi's Mansion, Li Yuhou of Gaodian Marshal's Mansion, etc. If I had bumped into him while he was still in the green forest, I would have killed those guys.
It's like killing a few dogs! When I saw Song Jiang's attitude of seeking perfection, brother, I made up my mind to obey brother Li Zhu's orders, so I went to Xiao Renxia and killed the official dog thief. He was mine.
wish!"
When Chen Yun thought about something, his face was filled with anger, and he said angrily: "Even if Song Jiang is willing to work hard for the imperial court, how can the imperial court look down upon us? That day, Song Jiang was ordered to follow the old thief Gao Qiu in the conquest.
Xiao Renxia, as a reward for the three armies, wanted to reward each sergeant with a bottle of wine and a pound of meat. When he was giving out wine and meat to all the officials at Chenqiao Station, even the gang of officials in Zhongshu Provincial Academy were greedy and unscrupulous.
, they cheated for personal gain, and only gave half a bottle of wine while reducing the amount of wine and meat, and greedily paid six taels for a pound of meat. Those guys are so unreasonable, they only care about scraping gold in the face of the Buddha!
My brother got mad and killed the traitor with several swords, but what did Song Jiang say after he heard about it? He just said that the thief who deserved to be killed was an official of the imperial court. He, Song Jiang, was afraid of himself and instead blamed my son.
Everyone was implicated! Song Jiang also taught the soldiers to hang him to death, beheaded him to plead guilty to the court, but prepared the traitor's body in a coffin for storage. Straight mother-in-law! Is this Song Gongming, the leader of Liangshan village who taught us to worship?
Not only did we show our kindness to the traitors in the court, which chilled the hearts of all the brothers, but when we were useful to the court, the traitors in the government would scold us as thieves who could not be cut into pieces and killed, and we were so arrogant.
Not to mention that being an enemy of Xiao Renxia can save your life and go back, if you are of no use to the court, how will the traitors in the official family treat us?"
As if infected by Chen Yun's emotions, Guo Ji's face became more sinister. He also said to Li Zhu: "Fortunately, brother Li Zhu is very resourceful and has pointed out a clear path for us brothers. We don't have to follow Song Jiang."
Run to death. It’s ridiculous that in the west of Beijing, there are still some green forest thieves from Jinghu who are vacillating, and there are even some idiots who dream of becoming officials with Song Jiang. It not only involves our future, but also wants to live a good life.
Happy and refreshing, now we have no choice but to become enemies. Since brother Li Zhu has made arrangements, we brothers can just listen to Xie's orders!"
