The Tang Dynasty was the last Central Plains dynasty nourished by the Yellow River's mother. By the time of the pre-Qin period, the descendants of Yan and Huang in Guanzhong, Longyou and Hexi had been cultivating the land of the northwest for thousands of years.

The grain produced in the fertile land of Guanzhong fed the old Qin people, Longyou was the horse breeding land of the Han people, and the land of Hexi has always been the front line of the ancestors against the northern barbarians. Guanzhong supported the old Qin people to fight with Xirong from generation to generation, and finally the descendants of the old Qin people unified the yellow earth and established Great Qin.

The golden millet is constantly consuming the fertility of the soil, and no matter how fertile the land is, it cannot resist the demand for thousands of years. Finally arrived in Datang, the Loess Plateau is full of loess, and the land in Guanzhong is no longer fertile, and Longyou can only graze. The land of Guanzhong, which has been the granary for more than 2,000 years, actually caused a great famine at every turn, and Her Majesty the unique empress had to periodically take the royal family, the big clan, and the civil and military to Luoyang to eat, in order to relieve the pressure on Guanzhong.

In the chaotic times at the end of the Tang Dynasty, Guanzhong was no longer the traditional land of Longxing, and the princes who occupied it first had to fill their stomachs, so they had to sell their war horses to other princes and watch other families compete for the world. Chai Rong, the Taizu of the Great Zhou Dynasty, ruled the universe, and when the capital was built, the Manchu Dynasty considered Luoyang at most, but never seriously considered passing Chang'an.

She was often angry that the Yellow River began to divert frequently, as if to punish the unworthy descendants of the land. The Great Zhou Dynasty hated and loved the diversion of the Yellow River, because each diversion brought a large number of casualties and losses, and also brought a large area of fertile siltation.

Li Xiang came to the Great Zhou, and now there are still brave Han sons and daughters in Guanzhong, Longyou and Hexi to resist the foreigners, but the food of the Western Army can only rely on Bianjing, so the children of the sages of the Great Zhou are not worried about the rebellion of the two families. A few decades ago, the Yellow River was diverted again, running from Cangzhou in Hebei Province and Shandong Province to the sea in two ways.

After the major diversion, the north road of the Yellow River actually went to sea from the mouth of Liaoguo, which was further north of Cangzhou, that is, Tianjin as Li Xiangkou said, and the rulers of the Great Zhou Dynasty were dumbfounded. For the sake of safety, in order not to let the Liao State benefit, more than 100,000 people worked hard for several years, and finally diverted the Yellow River to the northeast of Cangzhou into the sea, and the emperor of the Liao State was dumbfounded......

The rolling Yellow River water on the south road passed through the heads of the trembling people of Bianjing, and poured into Juyeze, where giant bandits once gathered, creating 800 miles of water and Liangshan, so there was a scene of bandits gathering again. But this situation has changed dramatically since one person intervened here, and that person was called Song Jiang.

Song Jiangyuan was a small official of the Yamen, known as Song Abbot, because he was black and ranked third, he was called "Hei Sanlang" at the time. It is very hard to be a small official, and in the eyes of the county commander who was born in Jinshi, he is like a coolie, and he can only be majestic in front of the small people in the market, and the price is that he is frequently poked in the backbone.

Song Jiang works very hard, he feels that his ability is no worse than that of the county official, as long as he works diligently, the court will always notice him, right? However, no, Xu officials are Xu officials, and the Great Zhou Dynasty does have a quota for non-imperial examination officials such as Enyin and Recommendation, but such a precious place, where is his turn to be such a foundationless charge?

So Song Jiang's face became darker, and he began to be a little irritable. Finally one day, he didn't know what his psychology was, he secretly let go of a character in the rivers and lakes, and stuffed a silver ingot into the other party, and the other party's unbelievable gaze finally made Song Jiang find a sense of existence. After Song Jiang encountered a trouble, there were not too many harmful pickles in the yamen, and Song Jiang had no heart to continue to fight, because in his opinion, his life was meaningless.

But Song Jiang's opponent was skillfully killed, although few people contacted Song Jiang, but Song Saburo knew the truth very well. Because one night, a snitch came into his room.

"When the fleas moved on the drum, my brother's kindness could not be repaid, so I had to get rid of that guy so that I could export my evil anger for my brother." The short, thin, squirky-eyed guy said, tears glistening in his eyes.

Shi Qian was the thief that Song Jiang once let go, and Song Jiang recognized it at a glance. He recognized the ugly Shi Qian, and after Shi Qian reluctantly left, Song Jiang's eyes lit up.

In the valley, in the alleys behind the county jail, by the river...... Song Jiang let go of the thieves he caught again and again, he never asked the other party what evil things he had done, he only cared about the other party's "reputation". As long as it is a "good man" who has a good reputation and does not cause public anger in the rivers and lakes, Song Jiang will let it go boldly and pay for the travel expenses. Song Jiang also cared about the people's opinions, but gradually he didn't care anymore, because he found that too many people didn't care.

Song Jiang belongs to the law enforcement department, and there is not a lot of oil and water, so the transportation fee requires skills, and he thinks that he is second in this regard, and no one dares to call it first. Some heroes are poor, and Song Jiang's consistency is enough to make the other party grateful; Some heroes are also poor, but they need to be given dozens of times to achieve the effect; Some heroes don't know where to earn it, but they are always very rich, so Song Jiang only sent the carriage and horse fare, and cried to the convenience that he met a true gentleman; Some heroes are also very rich, but Song Jiang gave even more, because there are always people who live with face.

Song Jiang's most successful case is a rough man who is darker than him, what is his name...... Li Kui cried like a child with a few pieces of money. Li Kui was deceived by a couple on the way home, and he went home very slowly hungry, only to find that his mother had been eaten by a tiger. So Li Kui killed the tiger family, roasted and eaten. On the way back, he found the couple's deception, so he roasted and ate it. From then on, there was only Song Jiang's brother in Li Kui's world, and Song Jiang asked him to cut whoever he wanted.

I don't know when it began, the name of "Shandong Timely Rain Hubaoyi Song Jiang Song Gongming" is very loud in the rivers and lakes, Song Jiang's salary has not risen much but he spends more money, but he doesn't care, he is very satisfied that he has many brothers. In fact, Song Jiang spent 200 guan to the effect of 20,000 guan, and he can always stuff money into other people's hearts.

The turning point of life always happens inadvertently, that day Song Jiang let go of another person, the people in the rivers and lakes called "Iron Tower Li Tianwang", Song Jiang didn't care much at the time, but he just felt that the man was very strong and bold. Then the man caused a big disaster, and actually robbed a birthday gang. Chao Gai sent someone down the mountain to thank him, but Song Jiang couldn't shirk it, so he had to be tired of it, and made up his mind to be careful.

After Song Jiang became famous, he found a concubine in high spirits, and the woman wanted to take away part of Chao Gai's property, of course Song Jiang didn't want to take this risk, so he scolded loudly. Who knows what the woman said, "Hei Saburo, you have made friends with the heroes of the whole world, and you can't get rid of the fate of the little officials, and the chair in the yamen has nothing to do with you......"

Xu is Yan Po regretted that the good-looking eyebrows were too high when she was sarcastic, or maybe it was some other reason, in short, Song Jiang took scissors and inserted them into the woman's plump chest. Yan Poxi's last thought when she lost her physical strength after a period of fear was, Song Sanlang's black face would actually turn red?

Yan Poxi's "mother" went downstairs and shouted, Song Jiang thought that he was also a member of the hero, so he couldn't lose face, so he changed his clothes and went downstairs to surrender. The county commander wrote an excerpt to completely solve this unclear organization of the Jianghu Hui Daomen of the Great Zhou civil servant, but a few letters and letters from his hometown kept him awake at night, and after a few days, after the rumors of Yan Poxi and one of his "younger brothers" were stirred up, Song Jiang was assigned to a good place.

Song Jiang was amazed by the strategy of Zhiduoxing Wu Yong and Zhu Wu, the Divine Machine Military Master, and at the same time discovered for the first time the terrifying power of the rivers and lakes in the northern land of the Great Zhou. Life was very easy after being assigned, so Song Jiang wrote a poem, so Song Jiang's saliva poem was identified as hiding his head and revealing his tail, with sinister intentions.

Just end your life like this, it's really boring, Song Jiang was very negative in the law field, until he saw Li Kui's two giant axes, and the dazzling reflection made him burst into tears.

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and when you go to Liangshan, you have to arrange the seats, Song Jiang insisted on only being the second chair, so Song Jiang's chairs were full of people. Song Jiang didn't want Chao Gai to risk going down the mountain, so he personally led people to rob the house, so he had a second and a third ...... Slowly, the addicted Li Kui and others didn't want Chao Gai to go down the mountain.

Song Jiang was very depressed, thinking that he was still inexperienced, and he was a little more embarrassed to face Brother Chao Gai. Chao Gai felt that the Juyi Hall was a little crooked and needed to be corrected in order to last, and Song Jiang also thought so, so Chao Gai insisted on going to Zengtou City in person, and Song Jiang was the first to agree. The few heroes sitting on the right side of the hall looked at each other, then nodded, and then Chao Gai Heavenly King came back with a poisoned arrow.

"Which of you did that? Who did it, who did it, who did it?! Ahhh Isn't it you? Could it be you? It shouldn't be you...... It's you?! It's not who you are...... Why are there so many great archers? How the fuck are you doing it......"

The part of the arrow in Chao Gai continued to turn black and smelly, and his consciousness sank in light and darkness, he smiled and looked at Song Jiang who was crying beside the bed, "Brother Song Jiang can't figure out who it is?" There are a lot of brothers who are good at archery...... Forget it, no matter. Then King Tota straightened up and took his last breath, "Whoever catches the person who shoots the poisoned arrow will be the great leader of Liangshan!" ”

After the death of the King of Heaven, his body did not fall, his eyes were not closed, and Song Jiang rubbed it for a long time before letting Brother Chao Gai rest in peace. After the funeral, Song Jiang took off his shirt and scratched his back, and poured half a bowl of black and smelly liquid on his back......

Song Jiang had poisonous sores and waited in the room to see who would bring the medicine, but he didn't expect to wait for the divine doctor An Daoquan. Song Jiang laughed at himself and said with a wry smile: "Isn't it providence? You're really cunning. Brother Chao Gai, the younger brother has no choice, don't you want me to kill most of the brothers, or the younger half brothers, and then break up? Let's kill Shi Wengong......"

When no one was around, Li Kui hugged Song Jiang and wept bitterly, "If my brother despises himself again, he will cut off Li Kui's head first!" ”

Song Jiang recovered from his injuries and brought tens of thousands of "heroes" to Zengtou City. Dozens of leaders showed their powers, breaking traps, traps and ambushes along the way, and the leader who had followed the Chao Gai Heavenly King worked very hard. Ambushes, sneak attacks, and burning forests...... The small city of Zeng Tou tried everything but to no avail, and while the peace talks were looking forward to the doomed unreliable officials and soldiers.

On the eve of the general attack on Liangshan, the whole army of Zengtou City counterattacked, using dozens of trapped vehicles to attack outside the Songjiang tent, but was surrounded by the ambush arranged by Wu Yong and could no longer advance.

Shi Wengong shouted surrender, "I am willing to surrender to Brother Gongming, that arrow is not my ......" The rest can no longer be said, because more than a dozen iron arrows have penetrated his whole body, and the Adam's apple is blocked by Xiao Li Guanghuarong's arrows.

At this moment, Li Kui quickly stepped forward and lifted the plate axe, "You are the culprit who shot Brother Chao Gai, what a thief!" So Shi Wengong's head flew up, and in the column of blood that spurted up was a big good head, and on the big head was a crying and laughing face.

The old man of the Yu family was grief-stricken and indignant, "King Song Gongming, it's not the people under Xiao Lao'er who want to rob Liangshan's horses, there are people here who are provoking, and their intentions are vicious." He also asked the head of the Song Dynasty to investigate and leave a way for the Shu family to live...... so the old man of the Shu family was shot to death in a row and the five tigers of the Yu family, and the representative of the peace talks in Liangshan in Zengtou City led people to rush into the Yu Mansion, leaving no chickens and dogs.

In Song Jiang's tent, some people beat their chests with fists; Outside Song Jiang's tent, some leaders had cold hair and hair standing on end. The young men of Zengtou City are resisting, the women of Zengtou City are screaming, and the fire of Zengtou City is reflecting the Songjiang tent.

At this moment, Shenxing Taibao Dai Zong ran into Song Jiang's tent, and Song Jiang opened it and looked, "Shi Wen Gongnai...... 's secret disciples, according to the investigation, his apprentices also include Lin Chong, Yue Fei, XX commander, XX commander, XX township soldier commander......"

The letter fell to the ground, Song Jiang's eyes were almost dull, and he recalled Chao Gai's words before he died, and muttered: "Kill the person who shot the poisoned arrow, so I either kill the younger half brothers, or kill the most of the brothers, or kill Shi Wengong, there is no fourth way." ”

"Brother Chao Gai understands me and knows that I will only choose to kill Shi Wengong to keep the foundation of Liangshan, and now he has indeed killed Shi Wengong, but there are so many of his classmates, and they all serve in the imperial court...... Brother Chao Gai, are you so optimistic about Zhao'an? Don't you want Song Jiang to lead his brothers to serve the court? ”

"Brother Chao Gai, you are actually just giving me three choices: either find out the real culprit, and then I can only be a puppet; Either kill those brothers with old qualifications, so that Liangshan will cease to exist; Either go and kill Shi Wengong, and from then on, Liangshan cut off the hope of Zhao'an. ”

"So I, Song Jiang, either lived in Liangshan, or fled to other places incognito, or took my brothers to live in Liangshan for the rest of my life. But why is Brother Chao Gai so unoptimistic about Zhao'an? Isn't it commonplace to kill people and set fires to be recruited? Liu Chengdong has been on the mountain for many years, and he still has a grudge with several gentry, so he also recruited An to conquer Fang La? ”

Song Jiang burst into tears and patted his head, "Brother Chao Gai, Song Jiang is not only for his own wealth, but also for the brothers to wash away their grievances, have a future, and end up." Song Jiang won't admit defeat......"

Wu Yong looked at Song Jiang's tent, used a fan to drive away the flying fireworks and sparks, and recalled in his heart what Chao Gai said to him when he came back from the arrow, "This arrow should not be the original intention of Brother Song Jiang, I will let Brother Song Jiang choose to stay, if Song Jiang insists on hitting Shi Wengong, it means that he only wants to recruit An to be an official in the stream, and you will protect him at that time." If the court turns its face or things are not harmonious, hiss~~~"

"You will find an opportunity to take some of your brothers away, and you can't let the brothers be buried together. If the imperial court is sincere in recruiting An Er and others, you will withdraw to protect the brothers, and if that Zhu Wu is reliable, he will also explain it, hiss......"

"One mountain does not tolerate two tigers, but unfortunately Lao Tzu and Song Jiang woke up too late and lacked experience. I'm not optimistic about Zhao'an, after all, most of our brothers are damned people, how can they end well, it's better to mess around here in Liangshan for a lifetime. Brother Wu Yong, don't do it, protect yourself, uh, uh, uh, uh......"

Wu Yong inadvertently wiped away his tears with a fan and looked at the starry sky, "Brother Chao Gai, you go well, Wu Yong will accompany the brothers to the end......"

It was also on this starry night that Li Xiang of Bianjing finally got the information of Liangshan in this time and space, and the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became, why didn't there be a few good birds? After reading it, Li Xiang threw the silk cloth to the ground and huffed, "Damn, why are they all a bunch of damned people, and there are not many Lin Chong and the like?" Chao Gai died a strange death, and bad money drove out good money......"

Cheng Jianghai ran down the kang, quickly picked up the silk cloth, and then wrapped himself in the quilt, and drank the spicy soup made by Li Xiang himself, "Ha~~~ Isn't this normal?" After all, there are only a few people who pay attention to restraint and are determined to recruit peace, and it is not bad that ten of the hundred heroes in the Great Zhou are really forced to go up the mountain. Of course, ordinary minions don't count, alas......"

Song Jiang ascended to the main position and felt that the two-legged stool was not reliable, so he decided to introduce talents. I heard that Lu Junyi, the local tyrant of the Daimyo Mansion, was very famous, and it happened that Song Jiang thought it was a good idea to use anti-poetry, so Lu Junyi killed his wife and took Yan Qing up the mountain; Thunderbolt fire Qin Ming commanded thousands of Zhou soldiers and horses, and his life was very comfortable, but the local prefect killed his family, and it is rumored that there was a man who looked very similar to him; The bearded prince Zhu Tong was appreciated and was on the road to returning to a legal citizen, but the little Yanei who protected him was hacked to death by Li Kui, and he could only defect to his good brother Song Jiang......

In the spring of the second year, in the middle of Liangshan, the sound of killing shook the sky.
