Yang Zhi was stunned: "How do you say this?" This time, it was they who greedily ate medicine and wine to affect the Sprinkle family, and along the way, the Sprinkle family had already said that they should be careful, but they just didn't listen, and Lord Liang blamed them a lot. ”

Ye Ling shook his head and looked at Yang Zhi with pity: "Brother Yang is still too loyal, and he spends the belly of a villain with the heart of a gentleman, although this is the case, how can they say this when they go back?" He must have spoken ill of you in front of his superiors, put the blame on you, and said that you colluded with the bandits and took the property from inside and outside.

How can you compare this with those few Yu Hou butlers? At that time, if you flee to the rivers and lakes, you will be rewarded, and if you go back with them, you will be taken down directly, and I asked Shi Dalang to kill these soldiers, and then those housekeepers and Yu Hou killed them and threw the corpses behind the cliff over there, creating the illusion that they colluded with bandits to harm you. ”

Yang Zhi suddenly had a cold war, and after thinking about it carefully, I am afraid that the truth is really the same as what Ye Ling said, if he goes back at that time, he will die, and if he escapes from the rivers and lakes, he will be wanted - in fact, the heroes of the rivers and lakes do not care much about the pursuit of the government, and some are still proud, but this kind of behavior of "betraying the lord and seeking glory" is spurned by everyone, even if you turn your back on corrupt officials.

Because everyone will think, Liang Zhongshu was so good to you before, and he exalted you so much, but you still betrayed him, so where would you dare to take you in the future? Which leader dares to say that he appreciates you more than Liang Zhongshu, and if you can betray Liang Zhongshu, won't you betray it again?

Heroes don't care about these things when they walk the rivers and lakes, kill people and set fires, and even the more they do, the more famous they become, but the most taboo thing is two things, first, they don't pay attention to righteousness and betray their brothers, especially the boss; Second, seduce the second sister-in-law, emphasizing color and ignoring friends.

So what Yang Zhi is afraid of is not the pursuit of the government, but the words "traitor seeking glory", once this label is attached, he will not be able to mix in the rivers and lakes for the rest of his life, and the officialdom will not be able to go back, isn't it that although the world is big, there is no way to go?

Thinking of this, Yang Zhi suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and at this time, his body was almost recovered, and he couldn't help but salute Ye Ling: "What my brother said is extremely true, Yang Zhi is stupid, and he doesn't know it when he is rescued, there is a courtesy here." ”

Shi Jin had an expression of "you should have been like this a long time ago", Ye Ling stretched out his hand to help Yang Zhi and said with a smile: "Everyone will be their own people in the future, Brother Yang doesn't have to be so polite, let me ask Brother Yang another question, do you want to know who robbed your goods before?" ”

Yang Zhi suddenly jumped up, looked directly at Ye Lingdao, "Brother, do you know this?" I hope to inform you below. ”

Ye Ling looked at him with a smile and said, "Seeing that Brother Yang is like this, are you planning to fight to the death with them?" I can't tell you that, you have to promise to listen to me completely, so that I can tell you exactly what they have to say, and I can trick them into making amends with you. ”

Yang Zhi asked again and again: "Brother, why is this?" If you don't want to help me, don't pay attention to me, if you want to help me, tell me all the information about these birdmen, these people have malicious intentions to harm me, I have to kill them one by one! ”

Ye Ling said calmly: "Brother Yang, there are two reasons why I did this, first, you were doing things for Liang Zhongshu before, and you were an official, and a few of them wanted to seize the ill-gotten wealth of the Birth Gang, which was the act of a good man in the rivers and lakes, you are a natural opponent, and there is no one who is right or wrong, and they just turned you over and did not kill you, which is already considered merciful;

Second, these people are all well-known heroes in the rivers and lakes, Brother Yang, although you are a hero, but as the saying goes, two fists are hard to beat four hands, and you alone can never withstand so many of them, and your identity is embarrassing at this time, and you can't use the power of the government, then it will only be you who will be unlucky, I'm afraid you can't take revenge on your own little life, but you will go in first, where will there be a chance to recreate the glory of your ancestors in the future? In this way, even if you die, are you worthy of your ancestors? ”

Ye Ling's words made Yang Zhi break out in a cold sweat again, he no longer dared to underestimate the young man in front of him who was more than ten years younger than him, bowed his head and bowed: "What my brother has taught is that Yang Zhi has been taught, and Yang Zhi is willing to follow his brother in the future, and he will not give up." ”

Seeing Yang Zhi's worship, Ye Ling remained silent on the surface, but he was still very happy in his heart, Yang Zhi was an underestimated kind among the one hundred and eight heroes in the Water Margin, not only did he not rank among the five tiger generals, but he was not even the top card in the "Eight Biao Rides" that were a step behind, whether it was Hua Rong Zhang Qing and others who stabilized him.

In fact, Yang Zhi's martial arts are slightly worse than Lin Chong, Hu Yanzhuo and others, but they are limited, in addition, he is behind the gate, and the command force and the art of war are all learned from a young age, even among the five tiger generals, only Hu Yanzhuo can match, Guan Sheng, Dong Ping, and Qin Ming are only local officers, a step worse, and Lin Chong is just a forbidden army leader, the difference is even farther.

Don't be unconvinced by this, even the officers of all dynasties are no exception, the descendants of senior officers learn to use strategy, the descendants of middle-level officers learn to lead soldiers, and low-level officers learn to fight fiercely, and their respective backgrounds have already determined the direction of future development, this sentence will never be wrong.

The so-called "a soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier", this is just a demagogic sentence of a certain Western general and emperor in later generations. And everyone wants to be a general, but they don't want to be a big soldier, how can this battle be fought?

It's just that the later Liangshan is the old traitor Song Jiang's Yiyantang, although this guy is not a martial artist, but the art of scheming is comparable to Cao Apu in the previous life, in order to better control the cottage, he skillfully used the contradictions and relationships of all parties, and suppressed the powerful faction of Erlongshan, in fact, Lu Zhishen was born as an officer, so why not fight horses? However, he had to put him and Wu Song among the infantry leaders in order to reduce their influence, and in addition to "devolve" Yang Zhi to the Eight Biao Cavalry, so that the power of Erlongshan would be completely divided and could no longer pose a threat to his rule.

Of course, this will definitely have an impact on Liangshan's overall strength, but compared to this, Song Jiang values the loyalty of his subordinates more, and he himself really has no strategic vision and military wisdom, so it is unbelievable.

But Ye Ling will not be like this, he is confident that he will subdue all the heroes, and he also hopes to maximize the full strength of his subordinates, so as to build a strong army and even an empire, and Yang Zhi is one of the important roles.
