Chapter 478 Hu Jian's first knife, cutting the tiger blade stone treasure
When Xiao Tang persuaded Qin Ming and Huang Xin to unite the cause, his brothers Yang Zhi, Tang Bin, Zhu Jing, Xu Ning and others also led their troops to surround the main roads in Zichuan County where Yuntianbiao was stationed, and
Send people to appease the villagers everywhere, and only let passing traders and common people pass.
Originally, he was in charge of the soldiers and horses from several states on Jingdong Road to encircle Erlong Mountain, but now he was trapped in a county town by the strong men of the Green Forest. As the general manager of the soldiers and horses on Jingdong East Road, Yun Tianbiao was completely embarrassed this time.
However, although Xiao Tang despised Yun Tianbiao, he also knew that the man was indeed very brave, so he also prepared his troops and planned to send troops to Zichuan County with Sun An, Lin Chong, Qin Ming and others to fight with Yang Zhi.
Meet up with others.
During this period, we also received a message from the flying pigeon sent from Jingxi Road in the village. Xiong'er Mountain's Xi Sheng, Funiu Mountain's Teng family brothers, and Shiliang Mountain's Yuan Lang had dispatched troops in batches all the way to Mizhou in accordance with Xiao Tang's instructions.
Board a boat to cross the sea near Banqiao Town and head to Baozhou, Liaodong.
Most of the ships used in the name of maritime trade to transport soldiers and horses from various green forest villages under his command were already very tight. Xiao An, who stayed in Mizhou, purchased ships, and then supervised the construction of large and small warships by Meng Kang, which could only meet the current demand.
.What's more, the only brothers who are proficient in water properties are Zhang Shun and Ruan. Not only water warfare, but also dispatching troops and horses by sea, now also need to recruit more navy leaders to manage naval affairs. Made in the Song Dynasty.
Shipyards for seagoing ships are also mostly concentrated in southeastern coastal areas such as Quanzhou, Mingzhou, Wenzhou, and Hangzhou...
Considering this, Xiao Tang couldn't help but think of Mei Dalang Mei Zhan, who had resigned and returned to his hometown, but had also agreed to help Xiao Tang persuade the green forest comrades in the Jiangnan area to come and join him.
After rescuing Mei Zhan in Mangdang Mountain, Xiao Tang had already discussed with him how to exchange messages. When Mei Zhan, escorted by Hua Rong and others, changed his route to Mizhou and returned to Jiangnan by sea, he had already sent the flying pigeon used to deliver letters.
Later, his hometown was Changshu County, Pingjiang Prefecture, Liangzhe Road. When Xiao Tang sent an obituary to the Song Dynasty through the Liao Kingdom, saying that he had been killed, and while following the trend of "faking death" and acting in the green forest, he also reported to Mei Zhan that he was still alive.
Fortunately, in his reply to the letter, Mei Zhan also mentioned that he had recruited some disciples from the old tribe and was willing to go north with him to reunite with Xiao Tang.
The last letter from Mei Zhan Feige mentioned that he had left Changshu County and was about to go to the village on Fujian Road where he once lived in Luocao to fight against the imperial court...
※※
Fujian Road, Wuyishan.
The first dangerous peak that can be seen when entering this famous mountain in Fujian is called "Dawang Peak". This peak is named because the mountain is shaped like a black gauze official hat and has a unique majesty of a king. This peak spans the mouth of Jiuqu River.
The mountain peak is more than 150 feet high. From a distance, it looks like a giant pillar holding up the sky.
Among the thirty-six peaks in Wuyi, Dawang Peak is known as the King of Immortals. However, there are towering ancient trees on the top of the peak, and there are also famous places with unique scenery such as Tianjian Pond, Toulong Cave, and Xianhe Rock. There are also other famous places around Dawang Peak.
It is full of cliffs, and only a narrow tunnel on the south wall can be used to climb to the top of the peak. It is a straight up and down chasm, only a few feet wide, with stone steps cut in the middle. There are shed camps near Tianjian Pond in the peak, and many
The houses seem to be occupied by green forests and grassy mountains.
Now Mei Dalang, Mei Zhan, is sitting in the main hall of this Dazhai.
Mei Zhan's expression was indifferent, and he quietly watched the big man sitting at the top enjoying his meal, and was eating enthusiastically. Behind Mei Zhan, there was also Chenggui, Zhai Yuan, who was born in Liangzhe Road and was also a descendant of his old brothers.
Two people.
At that time, Mei Zhan, the leader of Dazhai in Wuyi Mountain, decided to accept the recruitment and surrender to the imperial court. Although most of the brothers understood his painstaking efforts, there were also many people who were unwilling to surrender to the government and were unwilling to be rewarded and become officials.
.Some of them returned to their hometowns and became good people again. Later, most of them died of illness and returned home. Cheng Gui and Zhai Yuan were also the sons and nephews of those people.
Although Chenggui and Zhai Yuan made a living as boatmen on the Qiantang River, they already had some reputation in the rivers and lakes. The heroes on the road called them "Jade Claw Dragon" Chenggui and "Jade Claw Dragon Zhai Yuan" respectively.
Qiao Zheng, the "wave-rushing dragon", and Xie Fu, the "pearl-playing dragon", who are very famous in the Qiantang River area, are collectively called the "Four Dragons of Zhejiang".
After Mei Zhan returned to his hometown, he went through many inquiries and found Cheng Gui and Zhai Yuan. It happened that they were not willing to waste their lives just being a boatman on the Qiantang River, and wanted to use their skills on the water to find a wise master.
Fists and kicks.
At that time, Mei Zhan was not only a highly prestigious figure in the black and white circles of Zhejiang Road and Fujian Road, but he was also the master of the strongman's village in Wuyi Mountain when his uncles were weeding in the green forest. Since Mei Dalang said this time,
Zhai Yuan was naturally very happy to introduce the two of them to Cheng Gui, one of the most powerful heroes in the Green Forest of the Song Dynasty. At the same time, they also encouraged Qiao Zheng and Xie Fu, who were both making a living on the Qiantang River and had always been good friends.
The two of them had also met Mei Zhan, and after a detailed discussion, Qiao Zheng and Xie Fu decided to follow Mei Zhan all the way north to vote for the "Ming Lord" he called him.
However, compared to the process of recruiting the Zhejiang Silongs, when Mei Zhan returned to Wuyi Mountain where he had fallen into disgrace, he realized that it was not that simple to persuade Shi Bao to join the team.
When Mei Zhan and Zhejiang Silong were invited to the village, they exchanged pleasantries and explained their intention. After Shi Bao was overjoyed, he just smiled noncommittally, and immediately ordered the men in the village to hold a banquet in honor of Mei Zhan.
Waiting for a group of people. During the dinner, Mei Zhan tested Shi Bao's thoughts several times, but the current head of Wuyi Mountain Village turned a deaf ear and was still busy eating and drinking.
Hearing the sound of "chulu, chulu" constantly resounding in the hall of the cottage, the fresh and rich rice noodles seemed to be sucked into Shi Bao's mouth like a whirlwind, eating up his cheeks and the miserable green beard on his chin.
They were all dipped in some soup. When others looked at his heroic eating appearance, they couldn't help but feel their appetite increased.
Shi Bao was already sweating from eating, so he simply tore off the red scarf that was wrapped around his head, revealing his long black hair, which was only casually tied into a bun, with one of his bare feet still propped up beside him.
On the bench, although Shi Bao's movements seemed particularly wild and casual, there seemed to be a fierce spirit in his eyebrows. Although his body was not big and round, his muscles were strong and not bloated, just like a head.
A mighty leopard.
Shi Bao ate up all the rice noodles, and moved his chopsticks to the cooked meats next to him without stopping. Although he completely left Mei Zhan and others aside, the leaders in the village seemed to be used to them.
The leader was careless and behaved informally, so no one came to remind him.
Mei Zhan was still able to keep his composure and become noble, but Zhai Yuan and others were already losing their temper. However, although they were annoyed that Shi Bao was so rude to Mei Zhan, a senior from Green Forest and their sworn brother from their uncle's generation.
, but dare not reprimand him face to face.
Because of Chenggui, Zhai Yuan and others had long heard that Shi Bao, the leader of the village who was still gathering in Wuyi Mountain, armed with a wind-cleaving knife and a meteor hammer, was now regarded as a lord in the green forest on the border of Fujian Road.
Although they, Zhejiang Silongs, are proficient in water, and their ability on water is not inferior to that of their colleagues in the rivers and lakes, but thinking of the rumors about Shi Bao in the rivers and lakes over the years, if they are to be compared with this ruthless man who is known as the best swordsman in Fujian,
Fighting each other, I'm afraid the four of them together are no match for Shi Bao alone.
The Five Tigers of Southern Fujian, who were roaming the roads and forests of Fujian, also coveted Wuyi Mountain, a good place for people to gather in the mountains and forests. They also bullied Shibao Mountain Village into a small number of soldiers and came to kill Shi Xiu.
However, with one against five, Shi Bao actually killed the five tigers in southern Fujian one by one. From then on, the name of "Tiger Cutting Blade" was resounding in Zhejiang and Fujian Green Forest, which means that Shi Bao can kill those who cannot be provoked in the green forest.
Big insects are as easy and ordinary as chopping melons and vegetables, cutting seedlings and mowing grass!
This Shi Bao's ability is indeed very remarkable, but when my uncle was killed in the Wuyi Mountains, I also know that this Shi Bao is not only hot-tempered, but also unruly... Cheng Gui thought to himself.
:Uncle Mei Zhanshi wants to convince Shi Bao to join the gang. Considering his temperament, I'm afraid it won't be easy...
After some time, Shi Bao, who was full of wine and food, patted his belly and then slowly looked at Mei Zhan. He grinned and said with a smile: "Uncle, you are a capital official in the capital. Although
Bianliang in Tokyo is very prosperous, but dishes such as Xinghua rice noodles, smoked goose, and lean meat soup are still made authentically in our Fujian Road, why don't you use more of them?"
Mei Zhan slowly shook his head and said: "My nephew, even though you were still young when I fell into the grass in Wuyi Mountain, I also know that you are a straightforward person. My purpose of coming has been made clear to you, so I might as well tell you now.
Shall I tell you the truth?"
"Haha... This is about friendship?" Shi Bao raised his eyebrows and simply held the grass stem for picking his teeth in his mouth. He added: "Uncle is my father's sworn brother. Back then, he was a sworn brother.
The founder of Wuyi Mountain is also Xie, so when my uncle comes to his village, my nephew will treat me warmly. If there is anything I can do, my nephew will definitely help me with all my strength. But it was you, my father, who accepted the imperial court's invitation.
He followed you through life and death for many years, but he didn't want to follow you and instead submitted to the government. Until his death, there was no news about you...
After all, you later became a high official in the imperial court and served as a military governor, but my father has always been a bandit leader who adheres to the hard work of his brothers in the past, so as not to let Xie, a man who eats royal food, be blamed for having an affair with the old bandits, so this
I don’t blame you. But now that Xie said he has resigned and returned home, and advised my nephew to lead his troops to defect to some extravagant person in the north, my nephew just wants to ask my uncle three words: Why?"
