After these two people came in, they were even more surprised, and the Liangshan soldiers were surprised by their equipment, morale and lineup, and they suddenly became more respectful, and they saluted Ye Ling from afar, and began to introduce themselves and tell the reason for this trip.

It turned out that the name of the person in front was Xue Yong, and he was from Luoyang, Henan. My grandfather was a former officer in the old breed, but he was not allowed to be promoted because he offended his colleagues. As a result, Xue Yong was exiled to the rivers and lakes, and lived by selling medicine with guns and sticks, and was known as a big insect.

And the person in the back is called Hou Jian, whose ancestral home is Hongdu, who is a good tailor with one hand, flying needles and threads, and has superb skills. He loves to make guns and sticks, looks black, thin and light, and is called "gibbon", and is also Xue Yong's apprentice.

And when Xue Yong was performing on Jieyang Ridge before, because he didn't give gifts to the local tyrant in advance, Mu Hong and Xiao Mu Chun worshiped the mountain, so no one dared to give him money, but at that time, Song Jiang was escorted to Jiangzhou as a prisoner and encountered this scene, so he gave Xue Yong ten taels of silver on the spot.

As a result, this was a hornet's nest, they were chased and killed by Mu Hong Muchun and others, and in the end, fortunately, Li Jun, the dragon of mixed rivers, came out to say that he was peaceful, and then Song Jiang left Jieyangling safely, but Xue Yong was very grateful to him.

Later, when he was walking in the rivers and lakes, he heard the news that Song Jiang was arrested for writing anti-poems, and when he was in trouble, he heard that Dai Zong wanted to use fake letters to deceive Cai Jiu's prefect, but he was also imprisoned together, and he was about to be beheaded on the street in a few days!

Xue Yong is a very righteous person, so he made up his mind to save Song Jiang, but he was alone and had no choice, and he had no ability to rob the prison and fight against the prison, just when he was troubled, he heard the news that the heroes of Liangshan had arrived in Jiangzhou, and he had already sent a message to Cai Jiu and other high-level officials, asking them to release them immediately!

And he also faintly heard that Liang Shan didn't seem to plan to let go of the villain Huang Wenbing, who was plotting against Song Jiang, and just remembered that his apprentice Hou Jian happened to be living in the Wuwei Army now, so he took the initiative to contact him.

And Hou Jian also did not forget Xue Yong's kindness in teaching martial arts, and immediately slipped out when he heard the words, and came to the Liangshan camp with Xue Yong.

After hearing this, the general leaders of Liangshan were also very emotional, everyone admired this kind of good man who would repay his kindness, Chao Gai slapped his thigh and said loudly: "Good man, then Song Gongming only helped you with ten taels of silver, but you plan to save him desperately, Xue Yong, you are really a good man, as for the Hou Jian brothers, they are also very good, the master came over with a word, we are in need of people like you in the cottage, why don't we all go up the mountain, how about it?" ”

This is Chao Gai, he has always put righteousness first, he himself does this, and he judges others in this way, which may be his shortcoming, but it is also his advantage, maybe as the lord of a mountain, it is too simple, but as a big brother, a senior leader is very suitable.

Xue Yong and Hou Jian were both shocked, Liang Shan is now a first-class force in the rivers and lakes, and from their own eyes just now, they are even more impressed, such a force would take the initiative to invite their two small characters in the rivers and lakes? It's not a dream.

Among them, Xue Yong is just that, he was originally an officer, both martial arts and military strategy are good, but he was too unlucky to be in the rivers and lakes, from the previous two moves, he can see that he has real materials, and Hou Jian is limited by his body shape and martial arts talent, and his combat effectiveness is actually limited, so he was also invited.

So the two of them just thought about it for a while and immediately agreed with great joy, looking at the happy appearance of the two Ye Ling couldn't help but secretly sigh, of course he knew these two people, and he was very aware of their embarrassing situation.

Let's talk about Xue Yong first, as the leader of the infantry army, his martial arts are definitely not first-class, not to mention a super master like Luda Wusong, even if a slightly inferior master like Li Kui and Oupeng can't compare, but at least it's stronger than Mu Chun, right? The two of them fought directly, and it was in Mu Chun's home stadium, Jieyangling, but he was easily overturned.

But in the end, in the final ranking of the thirty-six Tiangang seventy-two earth demons and one hundred and eight heroes, Xue Yong was only ranked eighty-fourth, four places lower than Mu Chun's eightieth, which is incredible, if you have to explain, it can only be said that Mu Chun has a strong brother who can rank in Tiangang and did not block Mu Hong.

Xue Yong's low ranking was obviously not at all sorry for his strength, but his apprentice Hou Jian became the other extreme, his ranking was not too low, but too high, ranking seventy-first.

In terms of absolute ranking, of course, this seventy-one is not very high, but the problem is that Hou Jian does not have any strong skills, let alone know how to lead troops, as for the water nature, it is even more of a joke, he finally did not know that the water seat ship was sunk in the battle against Fang La, and he drowned alive, which can be described as extremely pitiful.

The only thing he can do is a good needlework, and his duties in the cottage are also "banner and clothing production", almost without any credit on the battlefield, but he can rank seventy-one, which can be regarded as a lower-middle position, and behind him there are the most senior veterans like Du Qian and Song Wan, as well as Chen Da, Li Yun, Gong Wangding, and Sun Jiaoting, who are still quite powerful leaders, and even his master Xue Yong, which makes people incomprehensible, will the tailor have a higher status than the leaders who lick the blood on the battlefield?

Please, although Liangshan is in great need of talents in all aspects, it is still a military institution in the final analysis, and it is not a textile factory!

However, although Hou Jian did not have many major military exploits, he made a great contribution as an internal response in the battle of attacking the Wuwei Army and capturing Huang Wenbing alive, and this battle was also a big bad breath for Song Lao, so with this credit, he overwhelmed many good players in the ranking.

This can also see how shameless Song Jiang is, how nepotistic he is, although he keeps saying that Liangshan is all brothers, and they must be rewarded and punished, but in fact, it is not like that at all, this guy has simply played the power and scheming to the extreme, so the ranking of the one hundred and eight heroes is not only unfair, but on the contrary, it is extremely ridiculous, Xue Yong and Hou Jian are two good examples.

This will naturally not happen again after Ye Ling takes charge of Liangshan, such as Shi Jin, Ruan Xiaoqi, Yang Zhi, and other leaders who have a good personal relationship with him, naturally have a high status, but this is also based on the premise that they themselves have the ability, if they want to get ahead with this alone, it is absolutely impossible.

Ye Ling knows very well the consequences of this kind of cronyism, that is, except for the people who are close to you, the rest of the people will no longer trust you, if it is a small force, there is no problem, but if it is large, it will definitely be self-defeating, and countless family forces will eventually fail because of this.
