"Owner, that's the way it is, the little incompetence, I'm really ashamed, when I saw that Zhu Biao, my heart was already three points timid, and I couldn't do it."

In Lijiazhuang, Du Xing reported to Li Yingyu helplessly.

At the same time, he said to Yang Xiong: "Engong, Du Xing is incompetent, and he failed to rescue the Shiqian brothers, so he is really shameless to face Engong." ”

Before Li Ying could speak, Yang Xiong said angrily: "This Zhu Biao is really arrogant and unreasonable, he can also instruct my two brothers?" Annoyed us ......"

Before his words fell, Shi Xiu desperately grabbed him, and shouted: "Brother, don't be impatient, let's still watch the owner of the village." ”

How careful he was, how could he not see Li Ying's hesitant mind at the moment? Knowing that if he didn't speak, he was afraid that Li Ying might persuade them to turn themselves in, so he hurriedly said: "It's all my fault that the two of us are not good, provoking the owner of the village and the Zhu family, if the owner of the village can be reconciled with the Zhu family, the little one would rather turn himself in and do hard labor for a few years." ”

As soon as the words fell, Du Xing said: "Brother Shixiu, you really think too much, my owner will never think so." ”

Li Ying also said: "What are these words? Although I can't save Brother Shiqian, how can I let the two strong men be affected because of me! ”

He paused, and then said: "But I'm afraid that my Li Jiazhuang won't be able to keep the two strong men, although this Zhu Biao is young, his skills are strong, if he gives an order in this village, I'm afraid it will be more effective than me, the owner of the village." ”

Du Xing also said: "Engong doesn't know, that Zhu Biao took the path of the eunuch Liang Shicheng, what did he do to take charge of the public land in Yanggu County, and I have the courage of ten thousand people, I beat the tiger, and hundreds of people are not close to him, but it is a tyrant in Yanggu, and the owner of my family really wants to rush over to reason with him, but I am afraid that the entire Li Jiazhuang will also fall into their hands." ”

This Du Xing said so bluntly in front of Li Ying, how could Yang Xiong and Shi Xiu not believe it? Yang Xiong said: "Then Zhu Jiazhuang is so powerful, and Zhu Biao is so brave, since the big officials have already sent the letter, they have been bullied, and the time can not be hooked out." My two brothers had to go to Liangshanbo to plead with Chao, Song Ergong and the leaders, to come to the revenge of the humiliated officials, and save Shiqian. ”

Li Yingdao: "It's not that I don't care, I'm really helpless." Two strong men, I have to stop blaming! "Tell Duchenne to take some gold and silver as a gift. Yang Xiong and Shi Xiu were willing to accept it.

Li Yingdao: "On the rivers and lakes, the two don't have to push back. The two parties accepted it and resigned Li Ying. Duchenne sent out of the village entrance, pointing to the main road. Du Xing said goodbye and returned to Lijiazhuang. Alone.

said that Yang Xiongshi Xiu went to the cottage obediently, told his whereabouts all the way in the Juyi Hall, and finally talked about the matter of Zhujiazhuang, which made Chao Gai angry and wanted to kill the two to vent his anger.

Song Jiang hurriedly persuaded: "Brother is angry! Two strong men came from thousands of miles away to help, but how could they kill him? ”

Chao Gai said: "I am a good man in Liangshan, since the fire and Wang Lun, I have been loyal and righteous, and I am full of benevolence and virtue to the people. One by one, the brothers went down the mountain, and they never broke their spirits. The brothers who went up the mountain from the old and the new, each with the brilliance of heroism. These two people went to steal chickens to eat in the name of Liangshan Bo heroes, so they caused us to be humiliated. Today, I beheaded these two first, and ordered this guy to go there, and then he got up and went to fight with him Zhujiazhuang, so as not to lose his spirit. How is it? Boys, slash the report! ”

Song Jiang persuaded him: "Otherwise! My brother didn't listen to these two virtuous brothers, but he just said, the flea on the drum has changed, he was such a person, so that he provoked the Zhu family, how could it be that these two virtuous brothers wanted to insult the cottage. I also hear people say that Zhujiazhuang is strong and has a lot of money and food. There are many people and horses in the cottages, and there is a shortage of money and food. So it's just time to take advantage of the situation to take that guy. If this village is successful, there will be three or five years of grain. ”

Chao Gai listened, and was about to shake his head to refuse, here Wu Yong said: "Two elder brothers, the younger brother has heard the name of this Zhujiazhuang for a long time, this Zhujiazhuang Taigong Zhu Chaofeng has three sons, the third son Zhu Biao is the most powerful, four years ago when he was only fifteen or sixteen years old, he captured a big insect on Jingyang Gang, and later heard that he was alone, killed hundreds of Jiangyang thieves, and he was unharmed, and he was very good, not to be underestimated!" ”

Song Jiang was about to take this opportunity to grasp the military power of the cottage, and after listening to Wu Yong's words at this moment, how could he put it in his heart, so he smiled and said: "I have also heard of this Zhu Biao's reputation, but there are always people in the world who spread false rumors, this Zhu Biao is less than twenty, how powerful can he be?" More than a hundred Jiangyang thieves lined up for him to kill, and in the end, he was afraid that he would not be able to lift the knife! It is expected that Zhu Biao became famous at a young age and had some skills, so the people below boasted hard, and the result became bigger and bigger, to this point. ”

At this time, Song Qing, who was in charge of the banquet, stepped forward and said: "Two brothers, the drunken tiger that we often drink in the cottage is the property of this Zhujiazhuang, listen to the brothers below, every time you go to buy wine, you can see their escorts, all of them are swords and guns, mighty and majestic, I heard that three years ago their guards also suppressed the soldiers and horses of the front division of the palace, if the elder brother went to conquest, it should not be underestimated." ”

Song Jiang laughed and said: "Now that our cottage has Chao Tianwang in charge, and heroes from all over the world come here, how prosperous?" The people and horses of Zhujiazhuang can at most deter a group of soft-footed shrimp in front of the palace, how can they withstand the majesty of my cottage? ”

"The elder brother is angry and angry, but he is not talented, he personally led a military horse, and invited a few virtuous brothers to go down the mountain to fight Zhujiazhuang. If you don't wash that village, you will not return to the mountain. One is to take revenge on the cottage and not break the sharpness; the second is to avoid this junior, to be disgraced by him; the third is to get a lot of grain for the cottage; The four invited Li Ying to go up the mountain and join in. ”

Wu Xue said: "Brother's words are the best. How can you copy a person who cuts off his own siblings? ”

Dai Zong said: "It is better to behead the younger brother than to cut off the virtuous road." ”

The leaders strongly persuaded Chao Gai to dismiss the two. Yang Xiong and Shi Xiu also apologized. Song Jiang had his own means to appease.

The next day, Song Jiangyi should make proper arrangements and divide the leaders of Zhujiazhuang into two groups: the first group of Song Jiang, Hua Rong, Li Jun, Mu Hong, Li Kui, Yang Xiong, Shi Xiu, Huang Xin, Ou Peng, and Yang Lin, led 3,000 minions and 300 horse troops, and went down the mountain to advance.

The second group is Lin Chong, Qin Ming, Dai Zong, Zhang Heng, Zhang Shun, Ma Lin, Deng Fei, Wang Xiaohu, and Bai Sheng, who also led 3,000 minions and 300 horse troops, and then responded. Then there are two small villages in Golden Beach and Yazui Beach, and only teach Song Wan and Zheng Tianshou to guard the handles, and they will receive grain and grass.

Marching all the way, Song Jiang asked Hua Rongdao: "Although our army is strong enough to set foot in Zhujiazhuang, but I know myself and the enemy, and I will not be defeated in a hundred battles, I have been running around in the past few years, and I also went to Jiujiang to sit in prison, and I don't know much about the things on the rivers and lakes, but I have heard of this Zhu Biao's reputation, I don't know what the virtuous brother thinks of this Zhu Biao?" ”

Hua Rong smiled and said, "How did you forget what my brother said in the Justice Hall yesterday?" There are always rumors and exaggerations in the world. Like the 800,000 forbidden army Lin Sect leader in our cottage, how brave and invincible, and my sister-in-law Thunderbolt Fire Qin Ming, martial arts are also good, I dare not say that one person kills more than 100 thieves in one go, this Zhu Biao dares to say, and he is not afraid of the wind blowing his tongue, according to the younger brother, this Zhu Biao is only afraid of being a nonsense! ”

Song Jiang nodded, and continued to say to Hua Rong: "What the virtuous brother said is reasonable, but I am afraid that this Zhu family has good wine, and I am afraid that people will be red, so I created such a rumor to deter the red-eyed people, but I think this Zhu Biao is also a skilled archer, so this battle depends on the courage of the virtuous brother?" ”

"Brother, rest assured, the younger brother will do his best!"

Hua Rong solemnly bowed his hand, he was born as an officer, and when he spoke at this moment, it was as if he had made a military order.

The two of them immediately discussed, but Li Kui followed on foot beside Song Jiang, listened to Song Jiang Huarong's conversation, and couldn't help laughing: "Measure this bird village, why bother my brother!" The brother brought three or two hundred children to kill the generals, and cut down all the people in this bird village. I also heard that Zhu Biao captured the big worm, so what? When I Tie Niu was on Yiling, he also killed five big insects, where did he come from? ”
