Seeing off Wen Zhongrong and Cui Ye, who ran away angrily, Liu Tang rushed back in a lost manner. By the time we arrived at Erlong Mountain, it was already dark. I saw that the lights in the Baozhu Temple were bright, and it was obvious that Chao Gai was convening the leaders at home to discuss major matters, after all, there were too many things in one day today, there were joys and sorrows, laughter and tears.

When Liu Tang took three steps and made two steps, and stepped into the gate of Baozhu Temple, he suddenly heard a male voice questioning Wu Yongdao: "Mr. Jia Liang, our Erlongshan is not richer than other cottages, and now we are short of money and food, and we spent five hundred taels of gold, not only did we not invite Lu Junyi up the mountain, but also almost folded Brother Liu Tang, but made a wedding dress for that Liang Shanbo!" This matter, no matter what, is it a little unreasonable? ”

Seeing that it was Wang Daoren who brought the war to himself, Wu Yong was willing to be a turtle with a shrunken head, and immediately sneered: "This time, the cottage attacked the empty city of Dengzhou, and Brother Gongming almost brought the whole village to the people, and Wang Daochang is also a person who has experienced it, so this battle will be counted as a great victory!" But ......" Speaking of this, Wu Yong aggravated his tone, "How many brothers we have lost, you have a number of royal leaders, and everyone also knows in their hearts!" Why did the two brothers Wen and Cui run away, didn't Wang Daochang feel guilty at all? ”

Wang Daoren didn't reply yet, but at this time Mu Hong interjected: "They are thinking about the people who came from Hucalf Mountain, there are more casualties in this battle, and there are not a few brothers who died in Qingfeng Mountain and Peach Blossom Mountain!" ”

Hearing this, Wu was overjoyed in his heart, and said, "Yes! This is our Dengzhou victory! ”

Mu Hong couldn't help but be furious when he saw that the other party had exploited the loophole in his words. He said: "Since the military advisor thinks that the junior brother's trip is futile, the junior brother also thinks that the military advisor has miscalculated this time, and he is willing to be punished together!" ”

Wu Yong sneered in his heart. And ignored him. If you want to be punished together, it is almost the same if the head coach Song Jiang comes down in person, where are you qualified.

At this time, the cottage fell into a deathly silence, except for the dancing fire candles, no one moved, Chao Gai sat on the top spot, his face was flat. didn't say a word, but Song Jiang, who was observing him all the time, couldn't guess what this big brother was thinking.

Song Jiang laughed dryly, and was about to break the embarrassing deadlock in front of him. Suddenly, when he saw Liu Tang coming at the door of the hall, he immediately got up to greet him, and said enthusiastically from afar: "Brother Liu Tang is back, come on!" Tell us about the Daimyo's Mansion. It also opens the eyes of the brethren! ”

Liu Tang for Song Jiang. It has always been with a complicated mentality. He was grateful to Song Jiang for his great kindness in reporting the news that day, but he couldn't get used to his practice of forming a gang in the cottage and threatening Chao Gai's brother's status. At this time, seeing that the two sides almost started scolding again, they just nodded at Song Jiang, but didn't say anything, and stepped forward to Chao Gai and said, "Brother, the younger brother sent away the two brothers Wen Zhongrong and Cui Ye, and came back to give orders!" ”

"Good!"

Chao Gai only said one word lightly. He stopped talking, but just motioned for Liu Tang to take a seat with his eyes.

"Brother. The little brother has something to say! Liu Tang did not go back to his seat to take a seat, but gave his hand to ask.

"Speak!"

Chao Gai only spit out one word, and his words were so concise that the leaders of the cottage were a little unaccustomed to it. Seeing that this straightforward man suddenly regretted his words like gold, everyone knew that Lu Dao was afraid that something was a little unusual tonight, not to mention that this person was still sitting in the top spot of the cottage.

"Brother Mu Hong said that the military advisor's plan was useless, and the younger brother thought that his words were too unreliable!" Liu Tang didn't squint, didn't look at Mu Hong's expression, and continued: "The junior brother and Dai Zong went to the Daimyo's Mansion with more than twenty brothers. But when he came back this time, the younger brother was accompanied by more than 2,000 people, half of whom were elite soldiers of the Daimyo Mansion, and half of them were heroes recruited by Yu Lu! ”

Song Jiang heard the meaning of Liu Tang's words, which was for the two thousand strong men he brought back from his trip to Dengzhou. Everyone knows that the ability of the forbidden army and the minions of the green forest must be stronger than the common people they have recruited. Song Jiang couldn't help but smile bitterly at this time, when did this straight man Liu Tang learn so many twists and turns, pointing at Sang and scolding Huai.

Chao Gai said "um" and didn't comment, but listened to Liu Tang continue:

"When I said goodbye to the people of Shen County and Liangshan Brigade, Brother Wang Lun was not present, and he was fighting with the pursuers with 4,000 horses. It was Xiao Jiasui, the military advisor of Liangshan, who sent me goodbye, and at that time he took 300 good war horses as gifts! Brothers here, I, Liu Tang, ask you, if these horses are asked to buy them, let alone whether we can buy horses of this quality, even if we can buy them, we will have to spend 10,000 or 20,000 yuan just for money! You have been staring at the military advisor, saying that he made a mistake in his plan and wasted the five hundred taels of gold in the cottage, so I want to ask everyone, what is the value of these five hundred taels of gold, and can it be exchanged for so many war horses? I don't know how some people settle accounts in their hearts! ”

Mu Hong was annoyed when he heard this, after all, Liu Tang was using him as a target to open his mouth, and wanted to organize a verbal counterattack, but unfortunately this time Liu Tang really brought back such things that were not easy to buy with money, and he hesitated for a while, and suddenly saw Wang Daoren squeezing his eyebrows at him, and his mouth was raised, Mu Hong was woken up by him, and he was immediately overjoyed, and said to Liu Tang:

"Wu Junshi went to Lu Junyi at the beginning, and our cottage left him to drink, and we had a friendship with him, which leader didn't work him? If the No. 1 rich man in Hebei comes to invest, how can the benefits be limited to the immediate ones? Now it's good! Liang Shanbo took the lion's head, but he threw some loose silver and waited with me, could it be that I was grateful? ”

When Liu Tang heard this, his face turned red with anger, and he shouted: "Okay, good!" Reason can be crooked like this, then let's just break it! Let me ask you, did I take twenty people to the Daimyo's Mansion to rob Lu Junyi on the way to distribution? Since I robbed him outside the city, even God helped me and asked me to rob Lu Junyi. How can I, with a mere twenty people, go and get the millions of wealth in his city? Where's the gain!? You, Mu Hong, followed Brother Song Jiang with thousands of people, but none of them broke the empty city of Dengzhou, did you call me about 20 people to break the heavily guarded Daimyo's Mansion? What the hell are you talking about in front of Lao Tzu! ”

Mu Hong was born as a local bully, when was he scolded in such a tone, and he was immediately angry. I almost couldn't help but step forward to join Liu Tang, but I suddenly heard a Taoist on the stage cough and said, "Everyone, don't be impatient." Listen to the poor Tao and say a few words! ”

Since Wu used Erlong Mountain, Gongsun Sheng rarely went into battle in person, but now some people only care about being brutal, and Liu Tang may not be able to explain it clearly, so he decided to speak, and it is better to explain some things thoroughly.

"What is the relationship between our Erlongshan and Liangshan? I see that many of the brothers here don't have a score in their hearts! At the beginning, I was in trouble with my brothers such as Tianwang and Liu Tang. There is no way to go to the sky, there is no door to the ground, and at the critical juncture, Wang Lun's brother does not care about his past suspicions. Reach out and give these two dragon mountains to the king of heaven to settle down! Later, the cottage experienced several major disasters, which time was it not because of Liangshan that it got out of the great difficulties? Who here has not received the kindness of Wang Lun's brother? Who would dare to say that? ”

"Everyone has to remember the fact that it's not that Liangshan owes us anything, but that I, Erlongshan, owe Liangshan. It is you here who owe Wang Lun's brother. We can't just pick up the bowl and eat. Breaking the bowl after eating's bastard! Don't always think that Liangshan is good to us, and it is right to be righteous to us! If it's always like this, where is it like a downright man walking on the rivers and lakes? I look like a kid who doesn't know how to play tricks with his father! ”

As soon as Gongsun Sheng's voice fell, the Baozhu Temple fell into a cold silence again, but Song Jiang understood that this was a dangerous precursor to the imminent outbreak of anger, and immediately rushed in front of everyone and said sharply: "Our heroes on the rivers and lakes should be as Gongsun Daochang said." Righteousness comes first in everything! Liangshan is kind to our Erlongshan, if anyone does such a bastard thing again. Speaking of this kind of bastard, I, Song Jiang, am the first not to go around him! ”

After Song Jiang finished speaking, his eyes were like hungry eagles one by one from Mu Hong, Yan Shun, Wang Daoren, Kong brothers and other bad-tempered descendants, and the really ruthless look made everyone feel a pang in their hearts, although they didn't understand why the eldest brother said this, but no one dared to jump out and question it.

Seeing that the situation was okay and he was not out of his control, Song Jiang breathed a sigh of relief, and glanced at Chao Gai with a complicated expression, the man in front of him who had been friends for many years could never be his toes. Since Wang Lun's reputation was ruined by Wang Lun's family on Qingfeng Mountain, Song Jiang didn't know how much effort he had to make amends! Now you can't bear the reputation of a fire and big brother anymore, so even if you recruit An in the future, people will stink.

What's more, behind this person is a behemoth that he can't afford to provoke at the moment.

"The brothers are used to being free and easy on weekdays, and they are open-mouthed, and they call Brother Chao a joke!" The deadlock always has to be broken, just listen to Song Jiang Chao Chao Gai laughed.

"Brother Gongming, whose jokes do I see? This is my cottage after all! Chao Gai finally spit out a long sentence of more than one word in his mouth, but it made Song Jiang listen to the drum in his heart.

Song Jiang paused for a moment, and found that Chao Gai showed a look of unhappiness on his face, and immediately took the lead in bowing down and said, "Please Brother Chao Gai to give a lecture!" ”

Song Jiang took the lead, whether it was the leader of Chao Gai or Song Jiang's descendants, they all got up one after another, and even Sun Li, Cai Fu, and Cai Qing, who participated in this kind of occasion for the first time, also learned from everyone else and bowed down in a decent manner, without the slightest strangeness and discomfort.

Chao Gai rarely didn't ask everyone to get up, got up and left their seats, and spoke directly: "Good two big victories, you accuse me, I accuse you, what are you trying to do?" Do you have to break up this cottage so that everyone is satisfied? ”

"Brother Gongming is in Dengzhou, what does it matter if the city is broken or not? The important thing is that with Sun Lisun Tizhi, a fierce general, and a harvest of more than 200,000 yuan and grain, how can it not be regarded as a great victory? Even though some of the brothers did not come back, I am deeply saddened, but didn't Brother Gongming also make amends afterwards, and the 2,000 people who brought them to the cottage were made of mud? ”

"Besides, Wu Junshi's plan was indeed going out to Lu Yuan at the beginning, but our strength is not enough, we can't save people, and people voted for their own life-saving benefactors, is this very rare? The blessing of the virtuous brother of the king of Tuoliang Mountain, the Liu Tang brothers brought back 2,000 men and horses from the Daimyo Mansion thousands of miles, not to mention more than 1,000 pieces of good armor, and 300 good horses, and Cai Fu and Cai Qing, the two Daimyo's mansions, came to vote, what are we not satisfied with? If it weren't for the strategy of the military advisor, would we have this chance? ”

Chao Gai made an extremely rare fire, and slapped thirty boards on each side, so that everyone in the audience did not dare to speak. At this time, Chao Gai did not speak, and everyone could only maintain this posture of bowing. It was not until this moment, in the hearts of some people, that they first appreciated the majesty of Chao Gai.

After drying everyone for a long time, after fully demonstrating the authority of the owner of the village, Chao Gai let go, and everyone sat down one after another. Everyone didn't dare to say anything more on this fire, even Song Jiang was unusually quiet, and finally when Chao Gai finished his lecture and proposed to rank the new leader of the mountain, Song Jiang only said a few words, and then said that everything was only Chao Gai's head.

Seeing Chao Gai's rare courage to take the lead, Wu Yong and Gongsun Sheng were a little happy in their hearts, just as they were about to see how Chao Gai planned to arrange these new leaders on the mountain, they suddenly saw Liu Tang patting his head and shouting: "Look at my brain!" Brother, in fact, there is a good man whose name and status are not lost to Lu Junyi and he was invited to the cottage by the younger brother! ”

After Liu Tang finished speaking, he looked at Cai Fu and Cai Qing and complained: "I don't remember things in my brain, and I have encountered so many things, and I have been interrupted, why don't you two brothers tell your brother?" ”

The Cai brothers really have bitterness and can't say it! This kind of retribution in front of the boss, the two of them have just arrived, where do they dare to grab this credit? also deliberately left it to Liu Tang to report the good news. How do you know that the "sensible" people are blamed by the "ignorant" people for what they think is the right thing, which makes them cry and laugh a little.

Chao Gai was stunned, and glanced at Song Jiang when he heard the words, but Song Jiang just had a faint smile on his face, and he didn't mean to speak, I was afraid that he thought that Liu Tang was grandstanding, and on the way from Qingzhou to the Daimyo's Mansion, who else could not lose to Lu Junyi's name and status?

At this time, Gongsun Sheng and Wu Yong glanced at each other, only to hear Wu Yong say: "Who brought it up the mountain?" Brother Liu Tang don't sell Guanzi! ”

Liu Tang smiled and said, "It's all weird, it's confusing me!" This person's name, identity, and martial arts may not be lost to the jade unicorn Lu Junyi, this person is Li Cheng, the king of the soldiers and horses of the Daimyo Mansion! ”

The soldiers and horses of the Daimyo Mansion are willing to fall into the grass and Erlong Mountain?

Song Jiang couldn't help but feel a burst of ecstasy in his heart, now the cottage is lacking this kind of middle and upper-level generals in the imperial court to join, he knew that these people would undoubtedly be his natural allies who tried to recruit peace, and he couldn't help but say at the moment: "Brother Liu Tang, if it is really that the king Li Cheng was captured by Liangshan that day, like such a famous hero, the king leader is willing to let you bring it back to the cottage?" ”

"There are brothers Cai Fu and Cai Qing, who were born and raised in the Daimyo Mansion, here, can this Li Cheng be fake?" Liu Tang laughed, "I don't know why, Brother Wang Lun doesn't value the two members of the Daimyo Mansion very much, but just accepts a small card army from them, and calls the urgent vanguard Suo Chao to go up the mountain, so I picked it up cheaply this time!" Li Cheng is not healed from his injury now, but he verbally promised me that he was willing to stay in his brother's Erlong Mountain and sit on a chair! (To be continued......)
