Chapter 27: The Rise of Liangshan (4K)
"Hahaha, the two brothers finally came to Qingzhou to see me!But let me wait!" Gao Cheng laughed, his attitude was very enthusiastic, his eyes flashed, and he saw Yang Zhi beside Lin Chong and Lu Zhishen.
There was half a cyan birthmark on his face, and there was only one master with such outstanding strength, Yang Zhi, so Gao Cheng instantly recognized his origin. I couldn't help but feel a burst of joy in my heart.
"Hahaha, it's been a long time!" Lu Zhishen laughed. Seeing that Gao Cheng's attitude had not changed, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, it seemed that Zhao Yu was still the same as before, in the future, Lin Chong would serve under him, and someone above would take care of him, and sooner or later he would be able to wash away the crimes on his body and revitalize the family business.
As for him, he has escaped into the empty door, and he no longer wants to be vulgar. In addition to brotherly righteousness, the powerful official positions in other imperial courts were not very attractive to him.
What Lu Zhishen could feel, Lin Chong could naturally feel. I secretly said in my heart that I didn't see the wrong person this time.
"Who is this brother?"
Gao Cheng rolled his gaze, looked at Yang Zhi, and asked deliberately.
Lin Chong hurriedly introduced the two sides and said: "Brother, this is Yang Zhi, the descendant of Tianbo Yang Mansion, who once served as an envoy in the palace marshal's mansion, and was robbed by escorting the birthday gang in the Daimyo Mansion some time ago, and now he is desperate, so he wants to come to his brother in order to make meritorious service!"
Yang Zhi is now more depressed, and the last time he failed to escort Shengchengang, it was because the boat capsized in the Yellow River that he lost his official position. But the Yellow River is high and turbulent, and the capsizing of the boat is a natural disaster, so he can only consider himself unlucky.
Not long ago, he was ordered by Liang Zhongshu to escort the Birth Gang, and he fell into the thief's scheme in Huangnigang, resulting in the loss of 100,000 Birth Gang. This is not a natural disaster, but **.
Successively offended Gao Taiwei and Liang Zhongshu, he originally had no backstage in the court, and now he was desperate, after meeting Lin Chong on the road, he heard from him the name of Zhao Yu, the commander of the Qingzhou Soldiers and Horses, so he came to Qingzhou with a trace of luck in his heart......
Now it seems that this Zhao Yu seems to be not bad, with him taking care of him, he can use this to become an official of the court again by making his own contributions.
Yang Zhi's heart was swirling, and he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed: "Villain Yang Zhi, meet the adult!"
Gao Cheng laughed, stepped forward to help Yang Zhi up, and said: "Tianbo Mansion is a loyal martyr, I have heard of it a long time ago, and it is really comforting to see Yang Zhi's envoy today!"
"Come in first, all three brothers, I've already prepared fine wine, waiting to talk to you for a drink!"
Gao Cheng grabbed Lin Chong and Yang Zhi's arms, then greeted Lu Zhishen and took all three of them to the courtyard where they lived in the camp.
When they came to the hall, everyone sat down according to the position of the guest of honor, the servants hurriedly sent wine and meat, Gao Cheng asked Zhu Wu to invite Qin Ming, Hua Rong and others, and for a while, there were only five or six fierce general-level characters in the hall. There are even powerhouses who have broken through the fourth order.
Qin Ming and Hua Rong, as first-class masters, have a sense of masters of the same level or stronger, and in their induction, the strength of Lu Zhishen, Lin Chong and Yang Zhi is not below them.
Everyone greeted each other, each telling their own origins, and Yang Zhi and Lin Chong also told their experiences. When everyone heard that Gao Taiwei had framed Lin Chong, they were all furious. And Yang Zhi's experience also made them empathize and sympathize.
"By the way, Brother Yang said that he had some thieves' tactics in Huangnigang, and then he lost Huashigang?" At this time, after Zhu Wu heard Yang Zhi's narration, he couldn't help but ask softly.
Yang Zhi turned his head suddenly, his eyes showed a hint of divine light, and asked, "Brother, do you know the origin of the thief who took the birth gang?"
Zhu Wu smiled and said: "The younger brother received a document, which has news about the birth gang, it is said that the one who robbed the birth gang was Chao Gai, who is known as the king of Tota in Jeju Mansion, not long ago Jeju's Sandu arrested the envoy He Tao to arrest Chao Gai, but this person escaped, and went to Liangshan and fell into the grass!"
"Tota Heavenly King Chaogai?"
Yang Zhi heard this name, gritted his teeth, and then heard the word Liangshan, and couldn't help frowning slightly, last time he passed through Liangshan, he was almost robbed by the thieves on the mountain, but Wang Lun, the owner of Liangshan, heard his name, and quickly apologized and returned the entanglement, so that Yang Zhi had a good impression of him.
"Wang Lun, the white-clothed showman of Liangshanzhai, is said to be just a fallen talent, and he has no kung fu, so he dares to accept the famous Chao Tianwang of Jingdong?" Hua Rong couldn't help but show a different color.
He and Song Jiang are sworn brothers, and Song Jiang and Chao Gai are also sworn brothers, according to this algorithm, he and Chao Gai can also be commensurate with each other.
He also often pays attention to the situation in Jeju, but he is busy with military training these days, so he doesn't know Chao Gai's situation for the first time. Now Chao is covered with Liangshan and the grass is a coward, and he has a natural identity opposition with him, an officer and soldier.
"It's okay! I'm now serving in the Qingzhou Terracotta Division, and if I am transferred to Jeju, I'm afraid I'll have to make an enemy of King Chao!" Hua Rong thought to himself.
Zhu Wu laughed and said: "Chao Gai is known as the King of Heaven, and he will definitely not be willing to be under Wang Lun, in my opinion, it won't be long before Chao Gai will take the foundation of Liangshan!"
When several people were discussing, Gao Cheng lowered his eyes, and secretly thought in his heart, Chao Gai had already gone to Liangshan, presumably Song Jiang was not far away, if according to the original timeline, Song Jiang would soon be wanted for killing Yan Poxi, and then he was assassinated in Jiangzhou, and got acquainted with Dai Zong, Li Kui, Mu Hong, Li Jun and others, but in Jiangzhou, he easily recruited and subdued more than 20 Liangshan leaders.
"Let Song Jiang follow the original timeline! One hundred and eight leaders of Liangshan, except for a few people I have now subdued, the others are scattered in the south and north of the world, and only Song Jiang, the Tiankui Star, has the ability to gather these people!"
"When the leader of Song Jiang Liangshan is almost subdued, Gao Yu and Tong Guan will send troops to sweep Liangshan, and then I will take the opportunity to act!"
Gao Cheng quickly made a decision in his mind. This is also a plan he made when he was in Tokyo.
......
There are three more generals in the Qingzhou Soldiers and Horses Division, and their strength has skyrocketed, especially Lin Chong, Yang Zhi and Lu Zhishen used to be lieutenant generals and colonels, and they knew some methods of arranging troops and training soldiers.
Gao Cheng asked these three to assist Zhu Wu, Qin Ming, and Hua Rong, and the two thousand five hundred soldiers increased their strength at a speed visible to the naked eye, and after hard training and the fight against bandits, these soldiers could soon become elite soldiers.
Gao Cheng secretly cultivated in Qingzhou, and sent people to quietly pay attention to the movements of Yangsan, and news of Jeju Mansion and Yangsan kept coming. It was similar to what Zhu Wu expected.
Not long after, Zhu Gui, the leader of Liangshan, stabbed Wang Lun to death at the Fenjin Pavilion, and then worshiped Chao Gai as the lord of Liangshan. Without Lin Chong going up the mountain, Wang Lun still couldn't dodge this knife.
It seems that under the influence of Gao Cheng, Song Jiang, who was supposed to wait for a while to stab Yan Poxi to escape, was made to secretly befriend the Liangshan thieves and secretly hide the gold and silver of the Birthday Gang at home not long after Chao Gai ascended to the position of the lord of Liangshan.
As a last resort, Song Jiang had to go out and die.
Hua Rong and Song Jiang have been friends since childhood, and they really want to invite Song Jiang to Qingzhou to live for a while. Like Lin Chong, Yang Zhi and others, he worked for Gao Cheng in Qingzhou in order to make meritorious contributions.
However, what disappointed Hua Rong was that Song Jiang did not come after receiving the letter, and after a while, he learned the reason. After Song Jiang received Hua Rong's letter, he was greatly moved when he saw that there was an opportunity to serve the court again for meritorious service, and immediately set off.
On the way, he also subdued Kong Ming and Kong Liang, and halfway through, Emperor Daojun gave amnesty to the world because of the canonization of the crown prince, and Song Jiang's sins were reduced by half at once.
It was about the same as the original timeline, and when Song Taigong heard the news, he hurriedly deceived Song Jiang back. As a result, he was arrested by the Yuncheng government and sentenced to the result of stabbing Jiangzhou Prison City.
Time is like water, in the blink of an eye, a few months have passed, Song Jiang is not happy to call friends and make heroes in Jiangzhou, but he wrote an anti-poem in a restaurant drunk and was sentenced to beheading, which caused a lot of turmoil.
At this time, Gao Cheng also completed the cultivation of the fourth layer of the Golden Toad Gong. Began to dabble in the cultivation of the fifth order.
"My lord, there are official documents!"
On this day, Zhu Wu, who was in charge of the affairs of the Terracotta Division instead of Gao Cheng, came to visit, holding the documents in his hand. He hurriedly walked over, and after saluting, he hurriedly said: "The Privy Council has sent a transfer order to transfer the lord to Jeju Mansion to serve as the training envoy of the Jeju regiment and train soldiers and horses to guard against the Liangsan bandits!"
"Transfer me to Jeju as a regimental training envoy?"
Gao Cheng frowned slightly, after the last time he exterminated the Three Mountain Thieves, the credit was reported to the top, and the Chengjielang on his body was promoted to Bao Yilang, and he was promoted from the official position of the ninth rank to the ninth grade.
And the Jeju regimental training envoy is in charge of the military position of all the township soldiers and miscellaneous soldiers in a state, and belongs to the eight products. Gao Cheng has been promoted.
"Suddenly promoted me to Jeju as a regimental training envoy to train troops to defend against Yangsan, could it be that Liangshan has already threatened the capital of Jeju?" Gao Cheng has been practicing behind closed doors for the past few days, and he has not checked the intelligence of Liangshan.
"My lord's expectation is not bad, Song Jiang made a big fuss in Jiangzhou, and took more than 20 heroes of the rivers and lakes to Liangshan, and now Liangshan's strength has increased greatly, and there are countless bandits at the level of Jianghu experts, and the nearby states and counties have been seriously threatened. And the 800-mile Shuibo Liangshan is close to the canal, once the erosion of Jingdong is unstable, it must be clamped!" Zhu Wu said.
"Song Jiang has already gone to Liangshan, and his luck is afraid that it will quickly flourish and get out of control! He also has the Nine Heavens Xuannu behind him, which is related to the Xuannu's plan to refine the world, if I confront Song Jiang at this time, the Xuannu will definitely not stop easily!"
Gao Cheng knew in his heart that Sun Erniang, Zhang Qing, Wang Ying and others who had killed the first few times were all earth-shattering star gods, and they had little impact on Liangshan. That's why the Nine Heavens Xuannu weighed the pros and cons and endured his actions.
And Song Jiang is the descendant of Tiankui Star, which is related to the Xuannu disturbing the Great Song Dynasty and shaking the plan of the humane golden dragon, Gao Cheng's intervention at this time led to the failure of the plan, and his doppelganger will inevitably be killed by the Xuannu.
At that time, Gao Cheng's plan to collect the true spirit of the star god will become a bamboo basket to draw water.
"It seems that my ability to continuously exterminate the Three Mountains Bandits was taken by Gao Yu or Cai Jing, so I was transferred to Jeju Mansion! But it doesn't matter, Jeju is closer to Yangsan, so I can observe Yangsan's movements up close!"
Gao Cheng said secretly in his heart, and his face was silent, and said: "Military advisor, the orders of the imperial court have to be respected, but Qingzhou can't give up, otherwise the elite soldiers we have trained with great difficulty will be harmed by the successor ** in a short time." ”
"What the Lord said is that the one who is qualified to take over the position of the Lord now is Qin Ming, the commander of the Soldiers and Horses Division. In my opinion, Qin Ming is quite loyal to the lord, why don't you recommend Qin Ming to Zhizhou and take over the position of commander of the Soldiers and Horses Division?" Zhu Wu proposed.
Gao Cheng nodded slightly, and said: "Qin Ming and Huang Xin are not weak, and they can follow my instructions, they are considered their own brothers, so you can write a recommendation document for me." By the way, I will give Zhizhou a big gift, so as not to cheapen others with this position!"
Zhu Wu hurriedly received the order.
In addition to Qin Ming and Huang Xin, Hua Rong, Lin Chong, Lu Zhishen and Yang Zhi could all follow Gao Cheng to Jeju with them.
Coupled with Zhu Wu and Chen Da, the quality of the masters under Gao Cheng's command is not inferior to many leaders in Liangshan.
A few days later, the official seal and documents of the imperial court were officially issued, and after receiving the official seal, Gao Cheng's heart moved, and he felt that his luck was rising again. Especially after opening the spiritual eye, he could see a golden light gushing out from the official seal, turning into a barrier to protect his body. This layer of golden light barrier gave him an awe-inspiring aura of intimidation.
"The protection of the golden dragon of humanity!"
Gao Cheng's official position has risen, and the more protection and blessing he will receive, but this layer of protection can only prevent him from being attacked by the evil demons, and cannot block the sword and gun.
"Brother Zhao's official luck is not bad, but in just a few months, he has become a regimental training envoy in Yizhou! Senior brother and Yang Zhizhi, as long as you make meritorious service in Jeju in the future, the charges on your body can almost be washed away!" Lu Zhishen said with a smile.
Lin Chong and Yang Zhi both had joy on their faces, only Hua Rong had a complicated look in his eyes, he didn't want to go to Jeju, but after thinking about it, Lin Chong, Yang Zhi and Luda all have the courage of ten thousand people, once they face Liangshan, the leader of Liangshan is not necessarily an opponent.
His own brother Komeito is also in danger.
If Hua Rong goes to Jeju, once Song Jiang is captured in distress, Hua Rong can still relieve his intercession and save Song Gongming's life.
Gao Cheng walked out of the hall with Zhu Wu and Chen Da at this time, his eyes swept over everyone's faces, and then said to Qin Ming and Huang Xin: "Two brothers, I have already recommended to Zhizhou, and the matter of Qingzhou will be handed over to you!"
Qin Ming and Huang Xin hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Obey my brother's orders, once my brother has an order, my younger brother will definitely obey the order!"
"Good!"
Gao Cheng laughed, then beckoned Lin Chong and Hua Rong, and selected one hundred of the most elite soldiers from the two thousand five hundred elite soldiers as personal soldiers, and began to march towards Jeju.
When he arrived at the place, Gao Cheng only needed to sit in the capital city of Jeju, and his biggest task as a regimental training envoy was to train the township soldiers, not to lead the troops to suppress bandits.
"Song Jiang has won the three volumes of the Nine Heavens Xuannu, and there is a hard top behind him, at this time, whoever goes to make enemies with Song Jiang will be unlucky, I am still developing steadily in Jeju, let Guan Sheng, Hu Yanzhuo and Song Jiang fight against each other!"
"Well, the relationship between Hua Rong and Song Jiang is very close, Song Jiang is very eager for Zhao'an in his heart, but he can contact him through Hua Rong, and when he conquers Liao in the north and Fangla in the south, he will take away all the star gods of Liangshan!"
