"Ms. sir, don't worry about me...it's just that many farmers in the market town have been injured, and they need to be looked after more."
Although Su Jinniang's face was pale, she still comforted Xiao Tang and said that she was fine. Seeing that Hua Xiaomei's face was pale, she gently took her hand and held Hua Xiaomei in her arms with one hand. She was like a weak woman.
She comforted her frightened little sister like a big sister. But after experiencing such a dangerous fight just now, Su Jinniang's body could not help but tremble slightly, and she was obviously very frightened.
Xiao Tang also knew that Su Jinniang was pretending to be strong so that he wouldn't have to worry too much. He felt compassion in his heart, stretched out his hand and patted Su Jinniang's shoulder gently. When he saw that he was besieged by the thieves, the Xiangyong martial arts master suffered nearly a hundred casualties.
Some of his subordinates were unable to run to avoid the fierce fire, and more than 40 people were burned. In the village, Zhang Qing was trampled by a horse, and was bandaged by his servant Ding Xiangyong and carried to one side. Sun Erniang bit her red lips, changing her frivolous look from before
With a coquettish look, she squatted on the ground and stared at the unconscious Zhang Qing in front of her without saying a word.
Liu Min, Duan Sanniang, Kou Yan, Feng Tai... Xiao Tang looked ferocious, and his eyes burned with angry flames just like the blazing flames. He clenched his fists tightly, and his veins
Violent. Since you have offended me, don't blame me for being ruthless and asking you to atone for your sins with your lives!
Of course, Xiao Tang knew exactly what Duan Sanniang was. She was an evil person in Dingshan Castle. She roasted and killed her husband-in-law less than a year after getting married, and then deceived the children of good families and seduced people into gambling.
Liu Min, Kou Fan, and Fengtai would all become Wang Qing's minions in the future.
And what kind of person is Wang Qing? He scolds his parents, spends all his property, and beats his relatives and friends when he doesn't get what he wants. He is only a traitor because of his affair with Tong Jiaoxiu, who he raised as his own daughter and Cai Jing's granddaughter-in-law.
In the state, Wang Qing used Fang Zhongshu to "try his best to flatter" Duan Sanniang, a big worm with a fat brain and full of evil, after he escaped from murder, just to use the power of the Duan family to cheat people out of food and drink and earn gold and silver...
The death of many heroes in Liangshan made people feel sad, angry, and heartbroken. Wang Qing's behavior can only be described as disgusting. Song Jiang was criticized again, but at least he was focused on recruiting peace and never thought about it.
The emperor was addicted to having thousands of people suffer from military disasters. As for those talented people and strangers who secretly surrendered to Wang Qing to help the tyranny, Xiao Tang had already thought about using those people if they could.
And those with bad character should be eliminated if they can. Liu Min, Kou Yan, and Feng Tai are the ones who have come to offend me first, so they cannot be left behind!
"The thieves are so rampant! But since the thieves' names have been revealed, they are not afraid of being flown into the sky by the thieves!" At this time, Han Cunbao came over and said angrily.
Xiao Tang held his fists in his hands and said to Han Cunbao: "How can I trouble Han Jiedu to come far away to welcome him without knowing what he is doing? If Han Jiedu had not provided timely help this time, it is impossible to say that the casualties of all our generals would have been worse. I will be grateful."
All."
Han Cunbao laughed loudly, waved his hand and said: "Nephew Xiao Xian, if you want to be a favor to me, you must first bow to me a few times to thank you for saving the Han family in Xiangzhou when we were in the Han family's former residence in Anyang!
We have been going back and forth to my mother-in-law and mother-in-law, since you and I are just good friends, there is no need to continue to quarrel with each other, it will only make things worse!"
Xiao Tang smiled slightly, this was really unintentional. At that time, he only wanted to kill Zhang Xiong and his gang of thieves who occupied Anyang City as soon as possible, but because of this, he also developed friendship with the Xiangzhou Han family, a famous family in the Song Dynasty.
Xiao Tang saw Bian Xiang not far away again. He had just washed off his smoky face, which looked like a Stove Lord. He called Bian Xiang and introduced to Han Cunbao: "This Bian Xiang
Although the righteous man went astray and surrendered to Zhang Di, the enemy of the southern Hebei army, if he had not realized the righteousness and returned to protect the great and small princes in your mansion, even if the general had the intention to rescue him, he might not have been able to save himself."
Han Cunbao looked Bian Xiang up and down and praised: "I have heard my uncle mention this to me. He is indeed a righteous man! Now I have voted for the Ming Lord. I will also keep your kindness to the people in mind. I will be like this in the future."
If you need me, just bring it to me!"
Bian Xiang smiled calmly and replied: "If there is a way, auspicious people will have their own destiny. Even without me, Bian Xiang, the people of the world will still remember the good ministers and good generals."
Xiao Tang looked at Han Cunbao, who was chatting happily with Bian Xiang, and thought that the Han family in Xiangzhou had many civil servants, such as Han Qi, Han Zhongyan, Han Zhi, and the Southern Song Dynasty Han Xiaozhou, Han Zhouzhou, etc. This Han Cunbao could be regarded as an outlier.
.However, he is a military envoy, and behind him is the Xiangzhou Han family's inextricable network of relationships in the court. If you want to gain a firm foothold in the court, you need to expand Han Cunbao's network, not to mention watching it.
In terms of words and deeds, combined with Xiao Tang's impression of Han Cunbao, even without the connection behind him, Xiao Tang was willing to get acquainted with a veteran who had been on the battlefield for decades and had a high prestige in the army.
Han Cunbao is also a well-deserved one among the ten festivals, especially the fierce battle between him and the double whip general Hu Yanzhuo in the book, which is fierce and exciting. Not only did the two fight fiercely for nearly a hundred rounds, but they also fell off their horses, with their armor falling off.
After losing their weapons, they fought in the water with only two empty fists. It was really difficult to fight between the male and female.
Not only was his martial arts skills comparable to those of the Five Tigers of Liangshan, Han Cunbao was also a hero who remembered his kindness. When he and Dang Shixiong, Gao Qiu, were captured when they conquered Songjiang, Song Jiang personally untied Han Cunbao's rope and treated him with courtesy.
The cadres who came before, Yu Hou acted arrogantly and insulted the heroes of Liangshan one by one. This Han Cunbao said good things about Song Jiang all the way back to the camp. Fortunately, Wang Huan and other old brothers begged for mercy, otherwise this Han Cunbao would have been killed long ago.
The furious Gao Qiu chopped off his head.
Ordinarily Han Cunbao should have known at this time that Gao Qiu would never allow Liangshan to be recruited. However, after he was removed from his post, he was still not afraid of offending Gao Taiwei, one of the highest military commanders in the Song Dynasty, and instead asked his uncle Han Zhongyan to promote him.
Zheng Juzhong (Zheng Juzhong in the official history) wanted to ask Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty to pardon him again and recruit Liangshan heroes.
Han Cunbao's move would only make Gao Qi even more jealous, but from a personal level, he wanted to repay Song Jiang's kindness. From a national level, his move was also to avoid conquering Liangshan and wasting the power of the Song Dynasty army in vain. It can be seen from this that,
This Han Cunbao is indeed an upright man worthy of friendship and admiration.
"Young Master, how should we deal with this guy?"
At this time, Hua Rong, Zhu Jing, and Fu Xiang pushed Yuan Lang in front of Xiao Tang. Yuan Lang had his arms tied behind his back and suffered severe injuries in many places, but he stared at Xiao Tang and others with his tiger eyes.
Fu Xiang kicked Yuan Lang in the leg. Yuan Lang was half-kneeling on the ground but he stood up straight again. Regardless of the blood seeping from the wound, he gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Xiao Tang! I am the one who provoked you here.
First of all, now I have accepted my defeat! It is up to you whether to kill or behead him!"
"This thief is so rampant!" Han Cunbao snorted coldly: "How else to deal with it? If you dare to rob the imperial official and commit a heinous crime, you should hand it over to the Kaifeng Prefecture to determine the guilt and give you a canonical punishment!"
Xiao Tang pondered for a moment, then opened his mouth and said: "Han Jiedu, in the end, the general was responsible for keeping soldiers and horses in prison, the state government's Yamen handled civil lawsuits, investigated criminal cases and promoted soldiers and horses, and the military commanders who supervised the arrest of thieves had their own duties. It doesn't matter. After the case of the officer is concluded in the lawsuit, it is submitted to the Privy Council for a decree. The person who robbed my car now is a strongman who gathered in the mountains and forests. It is not the state government's responsibility to dispatch troops and generals to patrol and suppress the bandits. It's up to you if you can. I would like to find out the details of the thieves first, and then ask the Commander-in-Chief of the Privy Council to dispatch the officers and troops to eliminate the thieves. Is that possible?"
Han Cunbao was startled after hearing this, and then he smiled and said: "My dear nephew, why are you talking to me in so many roundabout ways? You just want to detain this thief first, but you still want to end it privately. Do you want to be a thief, so that I can teach you how to get rid of the evil spirit in your heart? Although the villagers are brave and the people are strong, they will not be held accountable for their lives when they catch thieves and injure bandits. My nephew is an official and will not be sued. But my nephew, please listen to my advice first. "When the thief's crime is exposed, the government will review the case and deal with it. Why do you, my dear nephew, have to get into a dispute with those scumbags?"
After hearing what Xiao Tang said, Yuan Lang stood up and roared: "Xiao Tang! Since I have offended you, if you kill me happily with a knife, I will not come to seek your life even if I am a ghost." .A scholar cannot be killed and cannot be humiliated. If you use deceitful means to teach me to endure all kinds of hardships before dying, I will not let you go even if I am a ghost!!"
"I'm not afraid of you, so why am I afraid that you'll turn into a ghost and commit evil?" Xiao Tang glanced at Yuan Lang coldly and said, "I will ask you to explain the grudge between you and me. But you and Liu Min , how to settle the grievances of Duan Sanniang and those others? Those few harmed you halfway and caused all your subordinates to die here. If I kill you now, can you die in peace?"
Yuan Lang was stunned for a long time, and finally he sat down on the ground slumped and said with a long breath: "Just tell me what you want me to do!"
Of course, this debt must be settled with Yuan Lang... Xiao Tang secretly thought, but now he and Liu Min and the others have turned against each other. After all, he is indeed a good man with strong means and excellent martial arts. Why not use his ability to deal with the bad guys who must be eradicated in the world?
What's more, if Xiao Tang only relied on the power of the government to suppress the dissident forces in the lake and started the lawsuit process, regardless of the good or evil reasons of the people in the green forest, he would have sentenced them to death just because they turned into bandits. This is obviously inconsistent with Xiao Tang's original intention. Now he is surrounded by Sun An, who committed a life-threatening lawsuit, but acted chivalrously; Bian Xiang, who once supported Zhang Di against the government, but has an upright integrity; and Xiao Jushanlin, who has a deep sense of loyalty. Zhu Jing...
Yuan Lang still owes Xiao Tang an explanation, and it's not just Xiao Tang who also needs to observe his character. Behind this green forest, there are countless heroes and murderers of all kinds, some who deserve to be saved, and some who deserve to be killed.
In any case, now that we have come into contact with Wang Qing's subordinates who will rebel against the separatist regime in the future, it is time to take a look at Wang Qing's subordinates.
