The performances of Fan Rui, Xiang Chong, and Li Gon are all in line with Wu Song's wishes.

It seems that these three people can indeed be called heroes. are not greedy for life and afraid of death, they are all righteous, and they all have a bit of backbone. If the three of them begged for mercy as soon as they saw Wu Song, then Wu Song would kill them without blinking.

But Fan Rui not only did not beg for mercy, but also publicly criticized the corruption and darkness of the government, and if he wanted to kill, he had to scrape and listen to him, which made Wu Song feel that these three people were indeed worth receiving.

Wu Song had a smile on his face and said to Fan Rui: "Whether you kill or not depends on you, but on me." What I'm concerned about now is whether the three of you are capable of it. As he spoke, he pointed to Fan Rui and asked Li Gon and Xiang Chong: "You said that he has some ability, what kind of ability is that?" ”

Speaking of this, Li Gon and Xiang Chong actually had a bit of arrogance on their faces, as if they were honored to follow a big brother with real skills, and hurriedly said: "Our eldest brother is proficient in the art of war and strategy。。。。。。 ”

They are not telling a lie. Fan Rui was able to choose Mangdang Mountain as a base and knew guerrilla tactics, and in the eyes of Li Gon and Xiang Chong, he was indeed proficient in the art of war and strategy. However, Wen Huanzhang interrupted them and said, "You are all prisoners of the ranks now, and you are still proficient in the art of war and strategy, aren't you afraid of people laughing?" ”

Li Gon and Xiang Chong's faces turned red, and Xiang Chong shouted again: "Hmph, our eldest brother is proficient in spells and can call the wind and rain!" ”

Li Gon immediately added: "Yes, if you hadn't succeeded in your sneak attack, our eldest brother would have made a spell and would have wiped out your entire army!" ”

Wu Song heard the words "calling for wind and rain", and said in his heart: It seems that my memory is correct, this Fan Rui is really like what was said in the Water Margin story in his previous life, he is a person who knows how to look at the clouds and understand the weather, and he wants this kind of talent. At the moment, he asked Fan Rui with a smile: "You really know how to do spells to call the wind and rain?" ”

Fan Rui said: "So what? Isn't it? ”

Wu Song said: "If so, I guarantee that the three of you will not die; If not, don't talk about it. I don't want you to perform the wind and rain right away, you just need to tell me when it will rain in this area next, and if I'm right, I'll even if you really have the ability to do that! ”

Li Gon and Xiang Chong said to Fan Rui: "Big brother, they dare not believe in your spells, you just let them see!" ”

At this time, these two people were not in a hurry to let Fan Rui perform spells because they were afraid of their own death, but they were unwilling to let people question Fan Rui's ability. What Fan Rui thought in his heart was: Although he is not afraid of death, he can't affect these two brothers who live and die with him. In order to save Li Gon and Xiang Chong, he had to put on a show.

But I saw him looking up at the sky, looking at the clouds in the sky, thoughtful. He looked around at the trees and mountains, observed the direction of the wind, and said, "Four days later!" ”

Wu Song said: "You mean that in four days, it will rain?" ”

Fan Rui said: "Not bad. In the afternoon four days later, there will be heavy rain! ”

Wu Song smiled: "Okay! Let's take a gamble! ”

At the moment, he ordered Fan Rui and others to be loosened, good wine and good food were given, and preferential treatment was also implemented for other prisoners in Mangdang Mountain. Of course, those who are particularly treacherous will also be severely punished.

Subsequently, Wu Song left Lu Zhishen and asked him to take Li Zhong and Zhou Tong to lead a new forbidden army to temporarily camp in this Mangdang Mountain Village to prevent other bandits from occupying the mountain as kings.

Lu Zhishen is naturally very trusting and appreciative of Wu Song now, so he will not shirk. Wu Song knew that Lu Zhishen was the real "Zhishen", he seemed to be bold and rude, but he was rough and detailed, and he had great wisdom, and he didn't need to say much about many things, but he still made a clear statement and said to Lu Zhishen: "Brother, I give you the right to recruit troops." The location of this Mangdang Mountain is important, and when it is to be defended, my brother can expand his troops in the name of the new forbidden army! ”

Lu Zhishen said: "Brother, don't worry, I'll take care of it!" ”

Wen Huanzhang nodded secretly at this. In his opinion, Wu Song is another far-sighted move.

Wu Song and Lu Zhi deeply regretted goodbye, so they ordered that the main force of the new forbidden army should drive out of Mangdang Mountain and go to Liangshan to suppress the bandits.

For the next two days, the sky was clear and cloudless, and there was no sign of rain at all. The officers and soldiers of the new forbidden army all thought that Fan Rui was bragging.

Wu Song was also a little skeptical. In his opinion, in this era, people say that the sky is unpredictable, and it is still very difficult to predict the weather. Some people, based on experience, may be able to estimate the weather change in a day or two, which is quite remarkable. Thinking like Fan Rui, he dared to assert the weather four days later, this is the modern age before the crossing, with the help of computers and other high technology, it is not a 100% accurate thing.

But Xiang Chong and Li Gon were not in a hurry or impatient, and seemed to have great confidence in Fan Rui.

Wu Song could only wait and see what happened, and at the same time, he couldn't help but have some expectations in his heart: if Fan Rui's prediction could really come true, it would mean that he was indeed a genius who was good at predicting the weather. Such a genius is too much needed for the current Wu Song. can get such a genius, then this trip to Mangdang Mountain can be said to be worthwhile.

What's more, he also got the Xuannu Heavenly Book, which he doesn't know if it's true or not.

By the morning of the fourth day, the main force of the new forbidden army had gone far away. At this time, the blue sky is like a wash, the autumn is high and cool, not only does there not show the slightest sign of rain, but it seems to be more sunny. The officers and soldiers of the new forbidden army could not help but mock Fan Rui and others. Even Xiang Chong and Li Gon finally had some uneasy looks.

However, Fan Rui looked calm, and even looked back at the newly forbidden officers and soldiers who mocked him with disdain, and seemed to be extremely confident in himself.

In fact, seeing such weather, as a person who has traveled through modern times, Wu Song also began to believe that Fan Rui's words would be fulfilled. After all, modern people still need to know more about the weather, and Wu Song knows that in such a mountainous and watery area, the clearer the sky in the morning, the greater the probability of rain.

At this moment, the striker came to report: someone was blocking the way of the new forbidden army.

When Wu Song heard this, he felt strange: would anyone dare to block the way of the new forbidden army? He asked, "Who is it?" How many? ”

The soldier who came to report the news announced: There is only one person, who claims to be Lin Chong, the head of the 800,000 forbidden army in Tokyo!

It's actually Lin Chong!

Wu Songxin said: It seems that the trajectory of history has changed somewhat. Lin Chong was not sent to Cangzhou, which was even more farther away, so he probably killed Fu An and others sent by Gao Yu to assassinate him in advance and fled from the military camp.

It's just that, according to what was written in the book of the previous life, Lin Chong escaped from the barracks, and the next thing should be to go to Liangshan on a snowy night, why did he run to Mangdang Mountain now and block the way of Wu Song's new forbidden army? This is naturally because the original Lin Chong Niang, Zhang Zhenniang, the female captain of the new forbidden army at this time, is in the new forbidden army.
