Chapter 997 A famous general, I still have selfishness
Yang Zhi was just happy to express his heartfelt feelings, and Liu Fa felt the same in his heart. He remained silent, and couldn't help but think that he and even most of the army lieutenants were being manipulated by powerful ministers and endured it again and again, but even if they remained silent until they were raped,
Unjustly killed, but the court still has powerful traitors, so it would be a good idea to die in service. The generals under the military bureaus in various places in the Song Dynasty either turned into weaklings and knelt down to the powerful eunuchs, or were framed and killed in vain, or they were dying.
My heart has long since become cold...is this really worth it?
When Xiao Tang saw this, he took advantage of the opportunity and added, "Brothers Qin Ming and Huang Xin, they were originally serving as commanders and military commanders in the Qingzhou Command and Envoy Department. They also had the heart to serve the country.
However, the Qin and Ming brothers were upright and were secretly tabooed by Murong Yanda, the magistrate of Qingzhou who bullied his colleagues. The whole family was almost killed by that dog official...
In Xia Shanzhai, there are many brothers who were originally imperial officers and generals and had similar experiences to Liu Jinglue. Although those gathered in the green forest were mostly wild bandits from the mountains and forests, there were also many wise and brave men among them, as well as those who were persecuted by evil spirits.
Officers and generals, they are deliberately trying to keep useful lives for those good men."
"Haha... In the final analysis, you still have to resist the green forest strongman of the imperial court. From what you say, are you thinking about the country?"
Listening to Xiao Tang's words, Liu Fa could not help but feel a bit ridiculous, but in such a situation, he had no reason to feel that what this strongman leader said was actually somewhat reasonable. Liu Fa only paused,
But suddenly he remembered another person who had saved his life before, and said: "Since Chief Quan is a strongman leader who fought in the green forests of Jilu, he must have heard about Xiao Tang who was born in Daming Mansion in Hebei Province.
Xiao Jieshuai, Liu heard that Xiao Jieshuai was also highly praised by people in the world and praised him for being a knight. I was ambushed by the Tibetan King Chage's army in Bianting and almost died in battle, but Xiao Jieshuai came to the rescue in time and saved Liu.
someone’s life.
That Xiao Jieshuai also made acquaintance with the heroes from all over the world, the heroes who rescued people in distress, and he also recruited many capable people and strangers. I think all the big leaders seemed to be heroic people, far different from the ordinary people who kill and set fire in the green forest.
The thieves and bandits. Since you don’t want to let the fallen military generals and their talents fall into the dust, and you still want to protect your family and the country, why not follow the example of Xiao Jieshuai and join the army, without having to rebel and cause trouble?
A good general in the army can better rescue Qu Shen..."
The more he spoke, an inexplicable feeling of déjà vu emerged from Liu Fa's heart. Afterwards, his voice became softer and softer, and he couldn't help but think thoughtfully when he looked at Xiao Tang. He was obviously an official and a bandit.
However, Liu Fa also found that the reason why he got along well with this strongman leader was because he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity with him.
When the brothers behind Xiao Tang looked at their brother again, their eyes looked a bit strange. Zhang Rong, who was originally very angry, heard Liu Fa persuade his brother to do it in front of his brother.
To imitate his brother... he couldn't help but feel a little funny, but before he could laugh out loud, he received another violent shock on his head, and Ruan Xiaoqi calmly covered his head.
Rong opened his mouth and immediately glared at him with a wink, but at least Zhang Rong didn't show any mistakes.
"Xiao Renxia is famous all over the world, and naturally he is admired by many heroes in the green forest. However, although he holds an important position in the court and has a close relationship with Liu Jinglue, why can he still only watch Tie being framed and sent away?"
Xiao Tang followed Liu Fa's words and boasted shyly, and then said with a hint of something in his words: "A hero who has to be promoted to an official position by the imperial court and is willing to risk his life for the imperial court. Once he is fettered by his official position, he will either be with the abuser."
If the powerful eunuchs join forces with others, their property or life will fall into the hands of powerful traitors. Since I have obtained a high position in the court, I, "Quan Yu", can't do it in official terms, but "Xiao Tang" can do it, but on the contrary,
There are some things that he, 'Xiao Tang', can't do, but I, 'Quan Yu', can do."
Liu Fa stared at Xiao Tang with doubts on his face, and said: "Although I should be generously rewarded for saving my life, the leaders of the whole army plan to deal with Liu. Zhemo also wants to teach me to go to Guizhai to take a top position."
?Haha... Although I have a deep sense of loyalty and am willing to rescue the soldiers who were wronged in our Song Dynasty army, what will happen when I become more powerful? Is it true that I can fight against the imperial court by buying people's hearts like this? If this is really the case, then you
It seems that Yelang is a little arrogant."
Xiao Tang smiled slightly, but the Haechi mask covering his face still had the same ferocious expression. He shook his head and said: "How come I don't know how to support the heroes in distress and the homeless refugees in the green forest?
Is your sword on the wrong side? It’s not because I want to confront the imperial court, but I have evil thoughts to bring trouble to the world. That’s why the world is in turmoil and thieves are rising. As the saying goes, if the world is righteous, the common people will not comment. If the imperial court respects benevolence, the government will issue orders.
Being knowledgeable and able to make the country peaceful and peaceful for the people, as long as there is a way for people to survive, who is willing to lay down their lives and become a strong man in the green forest? If the yamen and military companies in various places are honest and upright, and do not serve as good pillars of the country, who will be willing to share the righteousness with me?
Liu Jinglue said that I am arrogant, but I thought that the way was about to be done, and knew that it was impossible, but I did it. Whether it is Liu Jinglue or "Xiao Renxia", they are all the first-class figures in the military... Ahem, authorized
There are too many things that you can't do about it, but if you are tired, I, Quan Yu, will do those things."
Since what Xiao Tang said was true, whether it was Liu Fa in prison or Sun Foer and Sun Dingchu, a veteran in the army who was listening quietly outside the prison door, although the government officials also wanted to refute it, they
They have all been reduced to the current situation, and they are just silent, and the anger and sadness in their hearts are getting stronger and stronger.
As for Xiao Tang, he had previously known that Yue Fei was not only upright and righteous, but also extremely filial and loyal. Even if he was persecuted by the ignorant king and sycophants in the future, it would be almost impossible for him to leave the grass and betray the imperial court. Although he would also make plans to retreat, but in the future
It is still very possible to meet him in battle, but Xiao Tang is still willing to spare no effort to help Yue Fei hone his talents. In addition to his respect for the eternal loyalty in his heart, he cannot bury a famous Forbidden Army general who can turn the tide in national disasters in the future. Xiao Tang must
The same reason was used to save the life of Liu Fa, a veteran of the Western Army.
It's just that he has done all the official things he should do, but now he has to use green forest methods to save Liu Fa's life. While Xiao Tang wants to rescue the dying military veteran, he does have his own selfish motives.
Although there are many capable generals among the brothers who are now sworn in with him, there is still a lack of commanders with outstanding commanding abilities who can command the entire army. Liu Fa, who was defeated in the previous battle, knew that the chance of victory was extremely slim and was coerced by Tong Guan to send troops.
He suffered a disastrous defeat, but in fact, Liu Fa's prestige in the Western Army was not only comparable to that of Zhongshi, one of the Zhongshi was better, but in terms of experience in commanding on the battlefield, he was even better than the Zhong brothers.
Cha Ge, the king of the Jin Dynasty, had terrible troops commanding methods, and Cha Ge and Liu Fa fought against each other for many years, but most of the time they had to avoid his edge. They were Yue Fei, Wu Jie, Han Shizhong, Liu Qi... These emerged at the turn of the two Song Dynasties.
A famous general, at least his current experience and even abilities in commanding the army are far less than this natural god general...
After all, when talking about famous generals, the law must be the first one.
So Xiao Tang secretly said in his heart at this time: Although I also know Liu Jinglue that you are loyal to the court, even if I save your life again and again, I still have to make you willingly become my great help in the green forest.
It takes a little more thought and subtlety. Now listening to your words, it doesn’t seem impossible...
Since the imperial court taught in vain that the famous generals who were good at fighting and who had made great contributions to the country were buried in the air, as the saying goes, weight is lost here but talents are gained there. I will not only do my best to save your life, but also use my brains to win you into my army.
