There are no steep mountains in the south, especially the land of the Yangtze River and Huaihe River. The great plain created by the Huaihe River and the big rivers has a dirtbag and the locals give it the name of the mountain. Qingyun Mountain is a big dirtbag, just because it is so much higher than the surrounding areas.
One or two hundred meters away, standing at the foot of the mountain, you can see that the peak seems to be in the clouds, so it was named Qingyun Mountain.
The name Canglang is not unique. According to the rules of Qingyun Mountain, all the big creditors of Qingyun Mountain are called Canglang. The current Canglang is actually the wife of the previous Canglang. Back then, Canglang was dissatisfied with making things difficult for him, so he killed her in a rage.
Shangguan and his 100 best friends became bandits in Qingyun Mountain. In the first few years, they were repeatedly attacked by the Huainan Kingdom and the Hengshan Kingdom, and were in danger.
In the last battle of the joint attack between Huainan Kingdom and Hengshan Kingdom, Qingyun Mountain was about to be destroyed. The former Cang Lang made a deal with Huainan King Liu An. Qingyun Mountain volunteered to guard the west for Huainan Kingdom and was responsible for monitoring Hengshan Kingdom in exchange for Qingyun Mountain.
A moment of peace. As a condition, the family members of the Qingyun Mountain bandits were detained in Shouchun. Cang Lang committed suicide to show his sincerity. So Cang Lang's wife Bei Gongjin took over Cang Lang's position and became the big creditor of Qingyun Mountain.
Su Ren poked his head out and looked behind Bei Gongjin: "Hey, why don't you see Qingyun Mountain's military advisor? Without him present, how can Madam become the master of Qingyun Mountain?"
Bei Gongjin gasped and glared at Su Ren: "I am the big creditor of Qingyun Mountain, what can't I be the master of?"
"Haha! Madam, you are really a hero among women, and you didn't even obey your husband's instructions before he died?"
When Su Ren revealed her identity, Bei Gongjin was already surprised. Now when Su Ren mentioned her husband's last words, Bei Gongjin was shocked. It turned out that she had known them clearly for a long time.
That's why I led my troops here. It seems that what the military advisor said was right. The Su Ren in front of me is indeed very powerful.
Seeing that Bei Gongjin was silent, Su Ren continued, "Do you still know who your military advisor is, madam? How about I tell you a story?"
"It is said that just after the Rebellion of the Seven Kings, a strange man came to Guicheng Town. He was not very old but looked very old. The most noticeable thing was that his left ear was missing. The then Guicheng military commander saw that this man was pitiful.
I rewarded him with some money, but I didn't expect that this man would rely on the Guicheng military commander and voluntarily became the Guicheng military commander's retainer. He didn't ask for money, but only wanted food and clothing."
"No one knows this man's name, because he is missing one ear, so everyone calls him Du Er! Du Er is a very knowledgeable person, and he is very devoted to the Guicheng army. It took less than three years to support him all the way.
He turned the Guicheng military commander into a school lieutenant. The school lieutenant had great trust in Du Er. Once when he was drunk, he mentioned the superior officer's suppression of him and uttered wild words about killing the superior officer."
Su Ren slowly sat down, motioned for Bei Gongjin to sit down, and poured tea for Bei Gongjin with his own hands: "Who would have thought that the captain's superior officer would really die the next day? Everyone immediately thought of the captain and what he said after drinking.
Shocked, he asked Du'er what to do, and Du'er asked the school captain to lead someone to occupy a dangerous location as a base, so that he could clear his name if there was a chance in the future."
"The school captain followed Du'er's suggestion and led one hundred of his confidants to Qingyun Mountain. Du'er made a step-by-step plan for the school captain, first to win over the people's hearts, and then to recruit troops to deal with the government. Unfortunately, time waits for no one, in Hengshan
Under the double pressure of the Qingyun Mountain Kingdom and the Huainan Kingdom, Qingyun Mountain Lianlian was defeated. The captain was willing to die for his men and saved more than 500 people in Qingyun Mountain with one life. It is a pity..."
"Stop talking!" Bei Gongjin burst into tears, covering her face with her hands and crying bitterly.
Su Ren did not stop and continued: "Before he died, the school captain told his wife that he must guard Qingyun Mountain and ask Du Er first about everything. Only Du Er agrees to proceed! The school captain told Du Er
He had so much trust that he even entrusted Qingyun Mountain with him, but he never thought that the one he trusted the most was the biggest threat to Qingyun Mountain."
Bei Gongjin suddenly raised his head and stared at Su Ren.
Su Ren pushed the tea on the table in front of Bei Gongjin: "Madam, are you curious about how I know so much, or do you want to know who this one-eared person is?"
Bei Gongjin said nothing and still stared at Su Ren.
Su Ren picked up his tea cup, took a sip, and spat out the tea foam in his mouth: "I can't tell you how I know, but I can tell Madam who this one-eared person is."
"After the Rebellion of the Seven Kings was put down, some of the seven kings were killed, some were captured, and many committed suicide out of fear of crime. All in all, the outcome was not good! The most powerful among the seven kings was King Wu. King Wu
He was cunning and cruel and had the most experience in leading troops. The Kingdom of Wu was also the last country to be annihilated. King Wu knew that he would not escape death, so he committed suicide to save his family. Unfortunately, he misunderstood Emperor Wen's anger, and King Wu was dead.
, the emperor ordered that all the members of King Wu’s family be cut in half, and only King Wu’s seventh son, Liu Kui, escaped.”
"Although Liu Kui escaped, he lived a very difficult life. The former prince's son became a wanted criminal. He had a home and a country that he could not return to. He was living on the streets like a beggar. When he saw no way out, he was killed by your husband.
Ren Guicheng's military commander rescued him, but he stayed with Guicheng's military commander for so many years. He tried his best to avenge the king of Wu and did not hesitate to use various tricks to disrupt the world. Huainan Wang Liu An has been persuaded by him, and his next target is probably Hengshan.
King, King of Jiaodong, King of Jinan, etc., and your Qingyun Mountain is just a refuge for Liu Kui."
"Your husband is in vain for trusting him so much, but he has been used by others all his life. Hey! You are a big fool!"
Bei Gongjin calmed down from the excitement just now: "This is a provocation, I won't believe it!"
Su Ren smiled: "Believe it or not, it's all Madam's business. Your husband's death was not so much a suicide, but rather forced by the King of Huainan. Think about it more deeply. How much does the King of Huainan think of you little ones?"
Isn't it strange that the villagers are so concerned about the village? I was about to conquer Qingyun Mountain, but I retreated because of the death of one person. It sounds funny to me."
"Moreover!" Su Ren did not let Bei Gongjin interrupt: "The plan to negotiate with the King of Huainan cannot be your husband's idea. I'm afraid there are shadows of some people. Madam is closest to Ling's husband, so she should know something. Madam
You can think about it carefully."
It was already dark, and there were bright torches all around. Su Ren basically talked all afternoon, and Bei Gongjin listened without saying a word. He did not refute Su Ren's words, nor did he ask any questions. He just sat there in a daze. In the teapot
After refilling the water several times, the taste of tea has already disappeared in my mouth.
After drinking the last glass of water, Su Ren said: "Madam, I would like to say one more thing, I have a way to save your family members, but Madam must agree to lead people to Jiangsu, and stop being bandits. How about becoming a returning captain?"
This is the last chance and I will only say it once."
"Madam, there is no need to decide now. The deadline is before dusk tomorrow. Don't wait until it is late! Don't think that your Qingyun Mountain is impregnable. With my secret weapon, it is not difficult to capture this little bumpkin! Okay, madam, please go back.
, our conversation ends here.”
She didn't know how Bei Gongjin came back. Su Ren's words were all in her mind. Bei Gongjin regretted meeting someone like Su Ren, but she was also glad to have met him. Otherwise, she would have died without knowing. A person who can tell you the whole story
Anyone who knows everything is not an easy opponent to deal with. If such a person is a friend, it is a different matter.
"Military advisor, do you really think Su Ren can save the brothers' families?" Bei Gongjin doubted Liu Kuisheng for the first time: "Perhaps you want to use this matter to anger Liu An, so..."
Liu Kui glanced at Bei Gongjin: "Did Su Ren tell you these words?"
Bei Gongjin did not deny it and nodded.
Liu Kui suddenly laughed: "When I encouraged Cang Lang to kill Shangguan, I did have selfish motives. Since I came to Qingyun Mountain for so many years, time has passed day by day, and I have also changed from a handsome young man to an old man today. In terms of thinking,
I have also changed a lot. The hatred in my heart is decreasing bit by bit, and the burden in my heart is slowly lightening. What kind of hatred is it now? Haha, what is it compared to the family members of those brothers? The living are always more important than the dead.
,dont you agree?"
"Military advisor!" Bei Gongjin is a woman. It can be said that she is in the same situation as Liu Kui. Both of them are now lonely and carrying a blood feud. If Liu Kui had been a few years younger, he would have stayed together with Bei Gongjin based on these few words.
possible.
Liu Kui sighed: "If Su Ren agrees to rescue the family members who are under Liu An's custody, I am willing to give them this head!"
Su Ren was lying on the Taishi chair, with a snow-white bear skin mattress covering his legs. He was holding a wine glass in one hand and a piece of meat in the other. His mouth was full of oil as he ate. He was tired of eating dry food, which was the staple food of the Han army.
It follows the style of the Qin Dynasty. Guokui is the best dry food. A thick roll of flour cake is cooked and placed on the chest. It can be eaten dry or soaked in water. It can also be used as a shield in critical moments.
Su Renke can't get used to eating that stuff. It's dry and hard after being stored for too long. It can't be broken by stones, let alone teeth. Moreover, the humidity in Jianghuai is too heavy, and even pot helmets will deteriorate quickly. Therefore, Su
The jerky made by letting people pickle it with salt is very popular among my subordinates. This kind of meat has flavor and chewy texture. The most valuable thing is that there will be no problem for ten days and a half.
The meat on Su Ren's hand has been steamed and the saltiness is much lighter. It can be eaten with the batter. It is not salty but slightly salty. He drank the wine in one gulp and signaled Han Qing to pour wine for him. Han Qing did not wait for Han Qing to pour wine for him.
When he started, Shi Bao had already filled Su Ren's wine glass.
Han Qing smiled: "Sir, although Cang Lang has some popularity, there is no need to treat it like this, right? If you want to conquer it, sir, you only need to send someone who can speak well."
Su Ren drank all the wine in the glass again: "There is a difference between subduing and subduing. As you said, if you send people here, Canglang should also agree to surrender to us, but he is in Jiangsu and his heart is in Shouchun. The only way is to send them
His heart has also been drawn to Jiangsu, this is the real subjugation."
"Sir, you are talking about Canglang and Liu An..."
"It's not Cang Lang and Liu An, it's Liu An who is coercing Cang Lang. If you want to conquer Cang Lang, you have to get out the Qingyun Mountain family members who are under Liu An's custody."
"What's so good about Canglang? Why do we have to expend so much effort?" Huo Jin was very dissatisfied. While eating, he raised his foot and kicked the leader of the Eight Villages of Qingyun Mountain who was captured alive by him. (To be continued)
