Chapter 316 The Great Demon King of Confusion, Not a City God
Seeing the banners of the three powerful leaders who suddenly rushed out, Xiao Tang immediately guessed that the three heroes who came were the Demon King Fan Rui, the eight-armed Nezha Xiang Chong, and the Feitian Great Sage Li Gun, among the one hundred and eight generals in Liangshan.
Tian Lai Novel This also made Xiao Tang feel relieved, because Xiao Tang also knew that it was impossible for the three of them to work together with Hu Chun and help Gao Qiu.
But the three of them, even if they knew that Xiao Tang, who was wearing a Haechi mask, was the famous Ren Xia in the world, they might not be so polite to Xiao Tang.
Not only Xiang Chong, Li Gun also used flying knives, javelins, and barbaric cards to make it difficult for people to approach. The barbaric gun swordsmen in their training department were not only good at using barbaric cards, but also had extremely strong defensive capabilities. When they first clashed with the enemy, they held
When javelins and flying knives are thrown at their heads, they can immediately cause heavy casualties to the enemy and cause chaos. Therefore, in the Green Forest Village who later joined Liangshan, there were Shi Jin, one of the eight hussars of Liangshan, and Zhu Wu, a master of formations.
, as well as the Shaohuashan strongman forces of Chen Da and Yang Chun, were defeated by Xiang Chong and Li Gun before Fan Rui, the head of Mangdang Mountain, took action.
When Fan Rui first appeared on the scene, he not only praised him for being able to "call upon the wind and rain, and use soldiers like a god", but also said that he "learned martial arts from the martial arts world. He immediately used a meteor hammer to appear and disappear.
.”
In addition, in terms of scale, the average Green Forest Village strongman is usually "tens of people", "three to five hundred people", "five to seven hundred people", but Fan Rui led Xiang Chong and Li Gun, with only three leaders, gathered more than 3,000 people.
The number of people and horses shows that Fan Rui, the leader of Mangdang Mountain, is far better than the ordinary village owners in Green Forest Village in terms of overall planning.
It was Fan Rui who was bold in art, defiant to heaven and unyielding, unlike ordinary strongmen in the village. He bowed to Song Jiang and the Liangshan forces, which had become a trend in the green forest at that time, and willingly submitted to him. At first, he and Xiang Chong,
Li Gun's idea was to annex Bo Dazhai in Liangshan, which shows that this demon king is extremely ambitious and will not be intimidated by his reputation. And the three of them chose to stay in Mangdang Mountain, which further proves that Fan Rui and the other three are proud of their bravery.
Each one of them is a fierce and tough person who cannot be easily offended.
In times like this, when green forest strongmen choose to occupy a place where the mountains and rivers are gathering, why do so few people dare to drop grass on Mount Tai, Mount Huashan and other famous Chinese mountains? Because Mount Tai is the place where emperors of all dynasties worshiped heaven and earth during times of peace and prosperity or when heaven descended on them.
; At the beginning of the Song Dynasty, Chen Tuan, the real Fuyao son of Daozong, lived in seclusion. Huashan was praised as "the beauty of China originated from this mountain". It was also a famous mountain resort where kings of all dynasties worshiped Huashan and held grand ceremonies. Groups of robber thieves
It's okay, but if you dare to gather in these famous mountains that the government always attaches great importance to, it is equivalent to openly challenging the court in advance, and it is more likely to provoke a crusade from the government and the army.
Mangdang Mountain is world-famous for the snake-killing uprising of Liu Bang, the founder of the Han Dynasty. It is also the place where the temple of the founder of the Han Dynasty was held, where Confucius, the most holy teacher, took shelter from the rain to give lectures, and where many literati and poets visited and wrote poems. Fan Rui, Xiang Chong, and Li Gun dared to set foot here.
Village, on the one hand, they did not take the government seriously, on the other hand, they dared to openly say that they wanted to confront the heroes of Liangshan. It is conceivable that Xiao Tang and Xiao Renxia, no matter how famous they are in the world, may not be able to be called
The three of them were convinced.
The reason why these three heroes surrendered to Song Jiang in the book is because Song Jiang's army captured Xiang Chong and Li Gun during the confrontation between the two mountains, and then Wen Yan loosened their bonds as a sign of kindness, and later let them go back together without leaving any hostages to persuade them.
Fan Rui, this gave enough trust to the three leaders of Mangdang Mountain, so Fan Ruihui, who had dared to challenge Liangshan before, willingly surrendered to Liangshan. My identity cannot be revealed at the moment, let alone threatening Fan Rui, Li Gun, and Xiang with only the power of momentum.
Accusing these three people will probably only make them counterattack...
Thinking of this, Xiao Tang sheathed his sword and said loudly to Fan Rui and others: "I have long heard about the names of three heroes: Fan Rui, the evil king of the world, Nezha with eight arms, Xiang Chong, and Li Gun, the flying great sage! Our brother's visit to Shanzhou is definitely not for us.
To provoke some bosses."
After that, Xiao Tang pointed his hand at Hu Chun and others and said: "These guys, under the orders of the old thief Gao Qiu of the Palace Commander's Mansion, are trying to assassinate Mei Zhanmei Jiedou who resigned from office and went into seclusion here. We are not angry with them."
I'm going to fight with them here. I hope Mr. Fan can do it conveniently and get close to these three heroes when we meet in the future!"
Fan Rui raised his eyebrows, looked at Xiao Tang quietly, and suddenly grinned and said: "I know a little bit about Mei Dalang's name, but you are a man who hides his head and shows his tail. How can I know where you come from? And
Take off your mask, tell me your name, and then talk to me!"
"A traitor should never be bullied, and a pretty girl should never be concealed. After dealing with this traitorous lackey of the imperial court, I will reveal my identity to Mr. Fan." Xiao Tang smiled slightly and said again in a neither humble nor overbearing tone.
Xiang Chong and Li Gun looked at each other and rushed to Fan Rui with their group cards. Xiang Chong said: "Brother, although Mei Zhan surrendered to the imperial court and received that kind of favor, he was also famous in the green forests of Jiangnan.
Character, since this matter happened because of him, from my point of view, it’s okay to betray him personally.”
Li Gun also echoed: "Yes, what's more, these days, I have heard that Gao Qiu of Bianjing is a rogue, greedy and domineering dog official. He is a good guy in the world and he does bad things.
But I'm not afraid of him! Besides, if Mei Dalang ends up in our land, I'm afraid he will also be criticized by the heroes on the road."
"So what? I, Fan Rui, am still afraid of the criticism from the heroes on the road?"
Fan Rui's expression was full of anger and weirdness, and he added: "It seems that two groups of court officials are trying to lure dogs into our territory! But no matter whether Gao Qiu is a low-income gangster or a low-ranking officer, he
How dare your lackeys cause trouble in our Mangdang Mountain and treat us three brothers as if they are nothing?"
After Fan Rui said that, he clapped his horse and ran a few steps forward, shouting to Hu Chun over there: "Wu Na Zhuniao! Are you really a member of Gao Qiu in the Palace Commander's Mansion?"
Hu Chun originally thought that it would be a sure thing to mobilize a thousand men and horses to kill Mei Zhan, who was only thirty or forty people in the chariot, but Cheng Yaojin appeared on the way. Not only Cheng Ziming was stabbed by the strongman leader whose origin was unknown.
He killed and even alerted the local green forest bandits in Mangdang Mountain in Shanzhou.
Seeing that the number of soldiers and horses dispatched by Mangdang Mountain was twice that of his own, and each of them was fierce and murderous. He had just been snatched away by Xiao Tang. After Hu Chun weighed it in his heart, he cupped his fists towards Fan Rui and said: "This hero
, I am indeed the eunuch of the Palace Commander's Mansion, acting under the command of Lord Taiwei. I think these few are all good men in the world, and my Taiwei is a man who is eager for talents. If you can do it conveniently, young general
I can say a few kind words in front of Lord Taiwei and promote you to serve in the army, and I won't let a few pearls fall into the dust and just hang out in the mountains and forests to be a strong leader."
After Fan Rui heard this, he, Xiang Chong, and Li Gong burst out laughing. After a while, Fan Rui turned to Xiao Tang and Mei Zhan again, and smiled at Xiao Tang: "Hey, did you hear clearly? What about Gao Taiwei? If I am to be an official, what benefits can you give me?"
Xiao Tang shook his head and replied loudly: "I can't promise any fame or fortune to these three heroes. Besides, if I do this, wouldn't I be underestimating their character? I still say the same thing, we are only here to save people. When Meijiedu comes here, if he bumps into the heroes of Mangdang Mountain, it won’t be too late for them to start complaining to me afterwards!”
"That's what the damn thing should be said for a hero who is beating up in the green forest!" Fan Rui nodded, feeling a little fond of Xiao Tang in his heart.
When Fan Rui looked at Hu Chun again, there was a sinister aura seeping between his brows, and he added: "I learned a lot of skills back then, and my two brothers are good at barbarian flying target techniques. If you want to join the army, It is not difficult to find a way out of the army. But do you know why we brothers are only willing to live in the Mangdang Mountains? Instead of suffering the arrogance of Shangguan in the army, we should lick those dry birds for the chance of promotion. How can a dog’s butt compare to drinking happily, killing happily, and living happily in the green forest!?”
Just as he was talking, the pupils of Fan Rui's eyes suddenly shrank, and the ferocious aura on his face surged! Fan Rui even shouted loudly: "What's more, I was called the 'Devil King' on the road, but you, a slave like me, thought I was just following you. Isn’t it possible that the city god is looking for a trace?”
How could Hu Chun be as able as Xiao Tang to figure out the personalities of Fan Rui, Xiang Chong, and Li Gun? He thought that the strong men in groups in the green forest would be like mice to cats when they saw the palace commander's officers and soldiers. Ordinary, and I clearly promised you a career as an official, you bandits and robbers should happily surrender to him, but how could you expect that your words would anger the brave and unruly Fan Rui?
The two hundred crossbowmen among the one thousand officers and soldiers all raised their divine arm crossbows, while Xiang Chong and the Mangdang Mountain barbarian soldiers under Li Gun also each held their guns and were about to throw them away. The atmosphere at the scene became even more tense! Hu Chun's face was pale, and he hissed: "If you dare to attack us, you must carefully consider the consequences! You are just some strong men in the green forest, but you dare to interfere and obstruct the order of the Palace Commander Gao Taiwei, even if you have strong troops and horses , when the imperial court sent out a large army to suppress it, it was unable to withstand the enemy?"
"Are you threatening the three of us brothers?" Fan Rui narrowed his eyes, looked at Hu Chun playfully, and said conspiratorially: "Don't say that you are just a prisoner of all kinds, Gao Qiu. I am still the emperor, no matter how tyrannical I am in Bianjing, I don’t take them seriously! Even the Ren Xia Xiao Tang who is the most famous on the road, in this Mangdang Mountain world, it is not me who should be afraid, but him You should be afraid of me!"
Fan Rui then turned to look at Xiao Tang, who was wearing a Haechi mask, and said: "I think you are quite pleasing to the eye, but it's these dog slaves who want to die. Forget it, we brothers should be sold to you and Na Mei." It’s just a favor from Da Lang, we brothers will help you get rid of this bastard!"
