There is a mountain about 400 miles away from Bianliang City, Jingshi, called Taihang Mountain. The Taihang Mountains are dangerous, stretching for hundreds of miles, spanning several prefectures and counties in Henan, Hebei and Shanxi. Whenever the Yellow River floods, or the imperial court pays taxes and forced labor, Taihang Mountain becomes a good place for poor people to escape the famine, go up the mountain to settle down, and settle down.

There is a famous spot in Taihang Mountain in the boundary of Anyang County, Henan, called Peach Blossom Valley.

Peach Blossom Valley is a valley in a valley, mainly mountains, caves, valleys and ponds, about 8 miles long, with a height of several hundred zhang. The strange peaks in the valley are abrupt, steep and majestic, a meandering peach blossom stream runs through the canyon, the grass and vines hang on both sides of the stream, the miscellaneous trees and jungles are endless, and the green tide surging with the mountain wind is like the sea water. There is a poem that praises:

fog disperses clouds and mountains change,

Flowers bloom and birds chirp;

The hanging waterfall falls hundreds of feet,

The water in the pool is as clear as a mirror.

To put it bluntly, Peach Blossom Valley is a natural den of thieves.

The Golden Sword Wang Shan has occupied the Peach Blossom Valley for more than ten years, with 30,000 or 40,000 men and horses, and is known as an army of 100,000 to the outside world.

Different from Song Jiang, the big leader of Shuibo Liangshan, Wang Shan's public relations work is very good: not only has a hot relationship with Anyang County and the surrounding government governments, but also has close contacts with many powerful figures in the imperial court, such as Taishi Cai Jing and privy envoy Tong Guan, etc., and often cooperates; What's even more powerful is that Wang Shan has always been in contact with the royal families of the Great Liao Kingdom and the Great Jin Kingdom......

In addition to public relations, there is another point that Wang Shan is absolutely stronger than Song Jiang, that is, the financial income of the cottage.

Shuibo Liangshan's source of revenue is very simple: robbery. Whether it is robbing passing merchants passing through Liangshan or passing through the state to rob the government or large households, the nature is the same--- domineering and robbing by force. Whether it is three dozen Zhujiazhuang, an attack on Gaotang Prefecture, or a night attack on Zengtou City, grain and grass are the biggest reason, and the rest are just excuses.

In the forty-sixth chapter of the Water Margin, when Song Gongming hit Zhujiazhuang, Song Jiang explained to Chao Gai the reason for beating Zhujiazhuang, and said: "...... On that day, there were many people and horses in the cottage, and there was a shortage of money and food, so if we were going to look for him, it would be nitpicking, so I just took advantage of the situation to get there. If this village is successful, there will be three or five years of grain ......"

Unlike Shuibo Liangshan, the Peach Blossom Valley of Taihang Mountain has much more sources of financial income: trafficking in illicit salt, operating casinos, green buildings, and so on. With a good relationship with the government, Peach Blossom Valley has diversified operations, blossomed in all directions, and has a lot of money.

Golden Sword Wang Shan also has a very special business --- army rental. Whether it was the original attack on Dayjin Hall by the King of Yama or the Xinyue Bridge at night by King Chai Gui of Xiaoliang, there were troops borrowed from Peach Blossom Valley. As for the combat effectiveness of the Peach Blossom Valley army, that's another matter.

If Shuibo Liangshan has caused serious harm to the local economy, it is a big cancer of the local economy; The Peach Blossom Valley protects and blesses the entire Anyang County, and is an umbrella and cornucopia for the local economy.

Because of this, not only the strongmen in the Peach Blossom Valley are happy like fairies, but the mountain people around the Peach Blossom Valley are also having a good time.

The Golden Sword Wang Shan often said to people that if he had been the leader of Shuibo Liangshan, the banner of Liangshan might have been planted on the wall of Bianliang City in Tokyo, so why not the tragic ending now.

Although it is good, it should not be the burial ground of the heroes of Liangshan.

…………………………………

Today, Peach Blossom Valley welcomed two more distinguished guests.

These two distinguished guests are the envoys of the Jin Kingdom, one is literate and one is martial, one is tall and one is short. The short one is called Nameless Si Weite, and he is the younger brother of the Nameless Bemixi, the staff officer of the Jin State; The high name is Xiong Bad, and he is a captain of ten thousand people.

In the Juyi Hall, Wang Shan was startled just after listening to what Anonymous Si Weite said, and muttered in his heart: "The wolf lord of this Jin country is too ruthless." It has been less than a year since I signed a maritime alliance with the Song Dynasty to attack the Liao State, and Yanjing, the capital of the Liao State, has not yet been taken, and now I am actually asked to send troops to attack Bianliang City in Tokyo? ”

It turned out that after the Jin State signed the maritime alliance with the Great Song Dynasty, it also kept the contract, and in one year, it had already captured most of the Liao State. However, seeing that the Great Song Dynasty poured the strength of the whole country, it was blocked by a lonely city in Yanjing, and it was impossible to move forward and protracted. So there was a strong doubt about the strength of the Great Song Dynasty.

The commander-in-chief of the Jin State, the wolf lord Wanyan Agu, listened to the advice of the staff officer Nameless Bemixi, and sent two envoys of the Jin State to contact Wang Shan, the golden sword of the Peach Blossom Valley of Taihang Mountain, and paid for Wang Shan to attack Bianliang City, the capital division of the Great Song Dynasty, to find out the truth.

Seeing that Wang Shan was silent, Nameless Si Weite opened his mouth and said: "Could it be that the leader of the king is Ye Gong Haolong, and he retreats when he sees the real chapter?" ”

Although Nameless Si Weite is a Jurchen, he has been familiar with Han classics since he was a child. Four books and five classics, hundreds of schools, all of them are refined, and Chinese is also spoken by thieves and thieves.

"Is the envoy using the Radical Method?" Wang Shan laughed.

The Juyi banner of Peach Blossom Valley has stood for many years, and the team is getting bigger and bigger, all thanks to Wang Shan's exquisite eight-sided appearance, and everywhere is the source.

After thinking for a while, Wang Shan stretched out three fingers and said, "This matter has three major disadvantages for my Peach Blossom Valley. First, I have a friendly relationship with the lords of the capital division, and sending troops to fight is regarded as unrighteousness; Second, most of the money and food in my Peach Blossom Valley came from Bianliang, and sending troops to Kaifeng was equivalent to cutting off the financial route, which was regarded as unwise; Thirdly, and most importantly, Jingshi is an important town in the country and is well defended. With the strength of a cottage of mine, it is really a bit immeasurable to challenge the strength of the entire country. ”

"I heard that the leader of the king often boasted that he was stronger than Liangshan and Song Jiang, and now it seems that he is also a man with a small eye of a mouse." Nameless Si Weite sneered: "Now that the Great Song Dynasty has poured the country's troops to attack the Liao State, the forbidden army has all gathered under Yanjing City, and there are only more than 1,000 troops left in each state capital in the country. You Peach Blossom Valley claims to have an army of 100,000 people, and you have 40,000 or 50,000 horses. With 40,000 or 50,000 people attacking more than 1,000 people, what are you afraid of? As for righteousness and the like, it's all bullshit, and you know better than me what happened to the most righteous Liangshan hero. ”

Wuwei Si Weite paused for a moment and continued: "Before the envoy, the wolf lord gave a special order, if you really attack Kaifeng and take the world of the Zhao family, our wolf lord will fully support you and crown you as the lord of the Southern Dynasty." If you fail to attack, you can also retreat to Taihang Mountain and continue to be your big leader. ”

Hearing this, Wang Shan's heart suddenly beat a few times: Although Peach Blossom Valley is good, it is a small place after all, and it has to be around from time to time in the midst of the forces of all parties, dotting around. If he can really become the founding emperor, it will be a matter of meritorious service, thousands of generations, and a name that will go down in history......

Seeing that Wang Shan was still silent, with a hesitant look, Wuwei Siwei glanced at Xiong Bad beside him.

Xiong Bad understood, walked to the side of the bookcase in front of Wang Shan, threw a large package on the bookcase, was lucky, stomped his foot suddenly, and said angrily: "Ah, there are eight thousand taels of gold here, if you want it, give a letter immediately." ”

Xiong Bad is tall and talented, and this stamping of his feet actually kicked out a shallow pit on the ground of the Justice Hall, and caused the dust on the roof to spill straight down.

The leaders in Peach Blossom Valley are often begging for a living on the knife edge, and they are used to seeing big scenes, but they are still stunned by Xiong Bad's kick.

Wu Wei Si Wei struck while the iron was hot and said; "Leader Wang, there are soldiers in Henan, but you are not the only one in Peach Blossom Valley. Tao Jun and Jia Jin also have a lot of troops, so the leader of the king should not miss the opportunity. ”
