Xiao Tang's words of encouragement to Suo Zhiyi were intended to inspire this vanguard who was full of meritorious deeds to make every effort to train this lazy horse army. Even though the Song army neglected training and had redundant troops,
There were too many factors such as the privatization of the government and the army, emphasizing civility and suppressing military force. Xiao Tang did not want to have a group of soldiers and gangsters under his command. In Tian Lai's novel, he had a place to use himself as a military leader, and he was also holding back his energy to make some names.
Of course it's no big deal.
At the same time, on the way to the forest road in the mountains of Weizhou, Yang Lin, the chief escort guard of the escort team, was bored and yawned. More than thirty escorts and escort chiefs were guarding the carriage.
, the coachmen also looked relaxed, talking and laughing.
In the past two years, the business of the Xiaojia Jiji Escort Agency has spread all over Cangzhou, Hejian Prefecture, Zhending Prefecture and other places. Just as Xiao Tang thought, except for a few blind little thieves, relying on Xiao Tang's
Due to the relationship between fame and the Daming Mansion, various copycats received the gift money that Yang Lin regularly arranged, let alone robbing the escort team. If something happened in their territory, those copycat strongmen would immediately use knives to fight with those who crossed the border.
Colleagues work hard.
During this period, there were two or three car dealers who saw the prosperous business of the Xiaojiaji Escort Agency and planned to imitate it. However, when they saw that it was not the banner of the Xiaojiaji Escort Agency, they robbed them even more fiercely, giving Ren Xia from Daming Mansion a few
It's just a matter of showing respect. Do you really think that grandpas gather in the mountains and forests just to wait for rewards on a regular basis?
The business of the escort agency is on track. The next step is to expand to Jingdong Road, Jingbei Road, Hedong Road and other places to make the business bigger, right? Yang Linxin thought that he should be more careful at that time. There are all kinds of people on Green Forest Road. In the famous
The government and hb are both enjoying a good life, but that doesn't mean that everyone in the world will take advantage of him and Xiao Tang.
At this moment, forty or fifty people suddenly appeared from the forest in front, each holding a sharp knife and looking at Yang Lin and his escort team with unkind expressions.
"Hey, this is something new." Yang Lin straightened up and looked at the unscrupulous group across the way, and said loudly: "Who are you guys? We are from the Xiaojia bodyguard agency in Zongcheng County, Daming Prefecture. I'm Jinbaozi Yang Lin.
, we can also establish friendship with heroes from the Wei, Prime Minister, and Ci states."
"Who are you trying to make friends with and do what I'm doing?" Suddenly someone said in a deep voice, a vicious man emerged from the crowd, and there was a sound of rustling, and seventy or eighty people came out of the woods, and there were more
More than ten people also blocked the escape route of the escort team.
Only then did Yang Lin's expression become serious. The evil man he saw was tall and powerful, holding a heavy three-pointed two-edged knife. The few people beside the evil man also looked fierce and sinister.
Not a kind person.
"So we are friends on the green forest road of Hedong Road?" Yang Lin still had a calm expression and said leisurely: "Isn't this way of fishing across the border a little out of line with the rules of the world?"
The evil man Jiejie smiled and said: "Rules? I have heard of you, the Xiao family bodyguard agency in the famous mansion, and I don't want you to give me money for money. The face of a friend on the road is far less valuable than the free money."
Yang Lin fixedly looked at the three-pointed two-edged sword in the evil man's hand and said: "Gaizhou in Hedong is adjacent to Weizhou, and I have long heard that the most luxurious person in the green forest in Gaizhou in Hedong is called 'Iron Dragonfly', and his surname is Niu
The name is Wenzhong, but it is also a three-pointed two-edged sword, could it be you?"
Niu Wenzhong bared his teeth in a smile and said harshly: "What does it matter if you know my name? I'm afraid that he is a fool. No matter how capable he is in Daming Mansion, can he control the territory of Gaizhou?"
Seeing that Niu Wenzhong was cold-blooded and careless about money, Yang Lin couldn't believe it. He slowly pulled out the pen barrel gun from behind and said: "It seems that you really want to gather with my Xiao family to do this."
Banliangzi?"
Niu Wenzhong roared and shouted: "Fuck your mother's face, Liangzi, I only want fucking money!!" After saying that, he waved the three-pointed two-edged knife in his hand, and his minions came up with knives to attack!
Seeing the other party charging at him menacingly, Yang Lin smiled sadly and murmured to himself: "This is a good saying. If you often walk by the river, how can your shoes not get wet? After two years of escorting, it seems that I have to give an account today.
It’s here…”

"That's unreasonable!!!" Xiao Tang was so angry that he slapped the tea table with his palm. The tea table cracked and was immediately split into two pieces. Xue Yong, Xiao Yi and others had never seen such a big fire like Xiao Tang's.
Time looked at each other, no one said a word.
Sixteen or seventeen of the bodyguards led by Weizhou Yang Lin escaped with injuries, and the rest were all killed by the Gaizhou bandits led by Niu Wenzhong. Niu Wenzhong also ordered the bodyguards who escaped back to Damingfu to send a message to Xiao Tang
: Yang Lin was captured by him, and he wanted someone to redeem him for 10,000 yuan!
Xiao Tang gritted his teeth, clenched his fists and said angrily: "My escorts were robbed, my people were killed, and brother Yang Lin was detained! Do you really think that you are in Gaizhou, and I, Xiao Tang, can't kill your donkey head Niu Wenzhong!?"
Thinking about the fact that many of the bodyguards who died at the hands of Niu Wenzhong and his gang also brought their families with them, Xiao Tang's eyes were splitting. You were just asking for money, so why did you harm the lives of my brothers?
?
When Yan Qing saw Xiao Tang furious and worried about himself, he suddenly saw the banker at the door gently waving him over. When Yan Qing passed by, he heard the banker say anxiously: "Brother Xiao Yi, there is a distinguished guest coming to visit you. But you
Look at how angry the young master is... The young master regards you, Brother Xiao Yi, as a confidant, and bothers you to report it on his behalf."
Yan Qing frowned and said sullenly: "Who else is coming to the door at this time? If it's not important, why don't you just fight him off?"
The banker listened again and Yan Qing's face changed. He didn't dare to neglect. He rushed to Xiao Tang and clasped his fists and said, "Brother Xiao..."
Seeing that it was Yan Qing who had something to say, Xiao Tang suppressed his anger and asked, "What's the matter with Xiao Yi?"
"The officials from Xiaoxuanfeng Chaijinchai of Henghai County, Cangzhou came here to visit me. They are now waiting for me in the hall."
After hearing this, Xiao Tang's expression changed. Of course he knew Xiao Xuanfeng Chai Jin, who was generous with his wealth and loved to recruit heroes from all over the world. One of them was in Daming Mansion and the other was in Cangzhou. It can be said that they are the two most famous figures in HB.
, Chai Jin is a man who likes to meet good men. Xiao Tang originally wanted to take the opportunity to go and visit him, but he didn't expect that he would come to visit him instead.
"Hurry up and be affectionate." Xiao Tang breathed a long sigh of relief and then ordered Yan Qing.
After a while, Chai Jin, who was born with dragon-like eyebrows and phoenix eyes, white teeth and red lips, was invited to the hall. Just as Chai Jin was about to speak, he saw that the tea table in front of Xiao Tang was smashed, and everyone looked a little strange, so he couldn't help but wonder.
Xiao Tang saluted Chai Jin and said: "The statement of Mr. Chai Jin has spread far and wide. I have admired you for a long time. Mr. Meng came to my house to make me shine. It's just that... something happened in our house. My brothers and I
If your mind is restless, please ask the officials to forgive you if you are negligent."
It turned out that Chai Jin arrived at Daming Mansion just when the Jinfeng Yulu Building was opening to welcome guests. Chai Jin listened to four scenes in a row and was very happy, which confirmed his intention to make friends with Xiao Tang. As a result, Xiao Tang was busy with training in the following days.
He waited until today to come to visit him, but he didn't expect that it was not a coincidence. He was surprised and said: "Young Master Xiao is also an extravagant person in Daming Palace, but he doesn't know why he looks like this?"
General Xiao Tang briefly discussed the matter with Chai Jin. After hearing this, Chai Jin nodded and said, "I have heard about Niu Wenzhong for a long time. He is just a man who is not stingy and unscrupulous, so he has a very bad reputation in the world."
After hearing what Chai Jin said, Xiao Tang immediately took notice. Chai Jin's village had many heroes from all over the world, and he could get information from all directions. Since Chai Jin knew this person, he must also have some understanding of the situation in the Hedong area.
Thinking of this, Xiao Tang asked Chai Jin: "Niu Wenzhong is so disgusting, but he dares to be so careless about human life and disregard the king's law. Is he relying on someone's momentum on the road?"
Chai Jin shook his head and said: "I heard that he only has four leaders: 'Yi Wei General' Fang Qiong, 'Pi Wei General' An Shirong, 'Biao Wei General' Chu Heng, and 'Xiong Wei General' Yu Yulin.
We gathered three to four hundred people and gathered in the area at the southern foot of Taihang Mountain. According to the Hedong villagers who have recently invested in our village, Niu Wenzhong and other green forest heroes on Hedong Road only have a casual friendship."
Now Xiao Tang had the answer. It turned out that Niu Wenzhong later helped Tian Hu to conspire to rebel, but Xiao Tang did not know when Niu Wenzhong colluded with Tian Hu. If Tian Hu had already united with the hb Hedong bandits, then
Xiao Tang's current strength is really unmatched.
Xiao Tang thanked Chai Jin and said, "Thanks to Mr. Chai for informing me, I can find out who the thief is so that I can save my brother Yang Lin."
Chai Jin hurriedly replied: "Master Xiao, don't be so arrogant. If there is still any use for my Chai Jin, just speak up."
It is really taboo to have a shallow conversation with Chai Jin, not to mention that this is just the first meeting with Chai Jin. Chai Jin has provided Xiao Tang with enough information, so why should he ask for his help next? Xiao Tang declined and thanked him, then
Chai Jin, the guest of the village, was invited to return. It was not the time for him to have a friendship with Xiao Tang, so he took his leave.
Just a moment after Chai Jin left, the door of the Xiao family's mansion opened wide, and a horse rushed into the courtyard. Shi Xiu, a desperate man who had just returned from selling goods in the north, got the news and rushed to the Xiao's mansion.
After more than two years, Shi Xiu was at the age of a dragon and a tiger. Coupled with his decisive temperament, he always looked like a ferocious and brave leopard. With an angry look on his face, he pushed away the person standing in front of him.
The banker rushed straight to Xiao Tang and said angrily: "Brother Xiao! Brother Yang Lin has been caught? Did that dog thief Niu Wenzhong in Gaizhou eat the courage of a bear's heart and a leopard's courage?"
