At the foot of the mountain, the Liangshanzhai bandits happily carried the loot and lined up in a long line up the mountain.

He Yong, Zhou Changqing and others also showed joy, not to mention how much food there was in the barracks, the weapons in the barracks alone were enough to arm the entire cottage and there was still leftover, especially when Huang Ke and the others took out more than a dozen sets of bright full-body armor from the barracks, the eyes of all the leaders were hot.

Three miles away from the Liangshanzhai cordon, a group of people were looking at Liangshanzhai in the distance who had won a big victory and was about to go back.

Standing at the forefront was Xu Qingshan, who was a talent, and after he learned that Lu Junyi had sent troops to attack Liangshanzhai, he was overjoyed and felt that it was the best time to subdue Liangshanzhai.

When he was on the way here, he thought that he had subdued Liangshan before Lu Junyi's arrival, and when Lu Junyi arrived, he proudly took Liangshanzhai to leave in the bright light.

But he didn't expect Liang Shanzhai to give him such a big surprise, and he was able to solve the officers and soldiers who came.

Xu Qingshan's heart to subdue Liang Shanzhai is even more eager, it seems that Liang Shanzhai has more than one Tianwu Realm, but also many capable people, which should be used by him.

"Let's go, go with the official to visit Liangshanzhai."

Xu Qingshan waved his sleeves and beckoned his entourage to follow him to Liangshanzhai.

"Yes."

A group of entourages behind him followed closely behind Xu Qingshan.

……………………

"Brother Gongming, Brother Gongming, someone came to the gate of the cottage, saying that they were here to visit you."

In the Juyi Hall, before Song Jiang, who had just sat down, had time to take a sip of hot tea when he heard Niu Geng come to report.

He was still calculating the use of the loot next to him, and when he heard the news, his heart moved and he raised his head.

"Brother Gongming, we have just won the battle, and someone dares to come to visit, I am afraid that the identity of the person who came is extraordinary."

"Well, what's the use, Iron Bull, you go with me."

Song Jiang had already gotten up and was ready to go to the Zhaimen to greet the guests.

"Yes." What is the use, Zhou Tie replied at the same time.

In front of the gate of the village, Xu Qingshan stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the many bandits in the cottage who were stacking war weapons, and he didn't care at all about the guards who were vigilant at the gate of the cottage and watching them.

When Song Jiang came with He Yong, Zhou Tie and his entourage, his heart moved when he saw Xu Qingshan, who was dressed gorgeously and had a hint of arrogance.

He Yong's eyes flashed, his mind raced wildly, and he tried to deduce the identity of this person.

"When you visit, you will miss the welcome from afar, and you will miss the welcome from afar."

The door of the cottage was wide open, and Song Jiang arched his hands and walked all the way with a smile.

Seeing Song Jiang greeted him politely, Xu Qingshan, who was arrogant in his heart, also showed a smile:

"I heard that the owner of Liangshanzhai Song Village is a first-class hero in Liancang Mansion, and he visited him, and he was disturbed."

"Haha, please!" Song Jiang stretched out his hand to invite and motioned for Xu Qingshan to enter the cottage.

"Please!" Xu Qingshan did not refuse, and entered side by side with Song Jiang.

The two talked happily all the way and quickly came to the Juyi Hall.

In the Juyi Hall, the three grandmasters including Yang Zhi and Zhou Changqing were already waiting again.

"This is the famous Yang Zhai master of Liangshan Cottage."

As soon as Xu Qingshan entered the Gathering Hall, he was immediately attracted by Yang Zhi, who had a special appearance but a fierce aura.

"Well, who are you? What is the matter with coming to Liangshanzhai? ”

Yang Zhi's face was calm, without the slightest politeness, and in the middle of that, the door of the Juyi Hall had been closed, and only Xu Qingshan and his party and Song Jiang, He Yong, Yang Zhi and other seven people were left.

Xu Qingshan looked around at the vigilant eyes of Yang Zhi and the others, smiled slightly, his face was straight, and a powerful momentum was revealed.

"This official is Cangyang County, and the county guard Xu Qingshan."

"Cangyang County Guard?"

Zhou Changqing, Ye Zhengwu and the others were shocked, and even Yang Zhi and Song Jiang's eyes shrank.

Liangshanzhai is also close to Cangyang County, so naturally I also heard about the newly arrived county guard of Cangyang County.

Xu Qingshan was very satisfied with everyone's expressions, and the entourage behind him also raised their heads, slightly revealing arrogance.

"It turned out to be Lord Xu, please take a seat, please take a seat." Song Jiang also seemed to be in a trance, and only reacted after taking a breath, and hurriedly asked Xu Qingshan to sit down.

"Haha, the master of Song Zhai is also invited."

Xu Qingshan was not polite, and walked directly to the first place on the left and sat opposite Yang Zhi.

Song Jiang did not sit above, but chose to sit next to Xu Qingshan.

Xu Qingshan's smile deepened when he saw this.

Everyone also sat down one after another, He Yong's eyes flashed, and after getting Xu Qingshan's identity, a wave of excitement poured out in his heart, and he had already guessed Xu Qingshan's intention.

Not only him, but Zhou Changqing and Ye Zhengwu were also faintly excited.

A county guard came to visit the cottage, not to solicit them, what else could he do.

"This official is straightforward and fast-talking, and he doesn't play dumb riddles anymore, and he came here this time to recruit Anliang Cottage." Xu Qingshan swept everyone's micro-expressions, and said to Song Jiang with a smile. "When this official took the position of the county guard of Cangyang County, he heard that the heroes of Liangshanzhai were incomparable in benevolence and righteousness, and often fought for the people, and had a good reputation among the people.

"Knowing that Yinghui County guards indiscriminately even sent troops to suppress you, this official cares about all the heroes, so I can't wait to come, but I didn't expect that without this official's action, your Liangshanzhai has already repelled the officers and soldiers of Yinghui County, which is really gratifying."

He Yong's eyes moved, listening to Xu Qingshan's tone, and Xu Qingshan's coming to recruit Liang Shanzhai, his mind flashed, and he faintly guessed.

Could it be that the newly arrived county guard of Cangyang County is not dealing with Lu Junyi?

Zhou Changqing and Ye Zhengwu heard Xu Qingshan praise them, their faces were faintly excited, and they looked at Xu Qingquan very eagerly, and they couldn't wait to agree to Lord Xu's edict immediately.

It was nothing for them to join Liangshanzhai before, and Yang Zhizai of the Tianwu Realm was there, and he was also a first-class force, and it was not impossible to dominate one side well, they just valued the future of Liangshanzhai.

But now Liang Shanzhai has offended the major families of Yinghui County, and that Lu County Shou is even more Tianjiao at the peak of Tianwu Realm, once he leads his troops to come, how can Liang Shanzhai resist.

Now Xu Qingshan, who is also the guard of the same county, recruits them, and they can also eat the emperor's grain, what kind of opportunity is this?

This is to make the ancestral tomb blow up, there is no such opportunity!

And He Yong, Yan Xia, and Zhou Tie looked at Song Jiang.

Song Jiang's smile gradually faded, and his face became extremely serious.

"Master Song, what do you think?" Xu Qingshan asked Song Jiang with a smile, with full confidence in his words.

The Juyi Hall fell silent, quietly waiting for Song Jiang to speak.

Song Jiang bowed his head and was silent.

A rather handsome-looking man behind Xu Qingshan saw that Song Jiang didn't agree at the first time, his eyes narrowed, and his tone was very gentle:

"Lord Song Zhai, our county guard is very appreciative of the heroes of Liangshanzhai, and when he learned that Liangshanzhai was in danger of being destroyed, he rushed to the rescue in his busy schedule, which can be described as full of sincerity.

Although Liang Shanzhai won a big victory in this battle, but this battle put Liang Shanzhai in a more dangerous situation, it is impossible for any county guard to bear his soldiers being defeated by the mountain bandits, Lu Junshou will definitely carry out the next attack, and the families who have already suffered defeat will definitely wash away their shame this time, and they will be afraid of ............ when the time comes."

The man didn't say the last word, but everyone knew exactly what he wanted to say.

Zhou Changqing and Ye Zhengwu nodded hurriedly, and Ye Zhengwu couldn't wait to say:

"Yes, the owner of the village, Lord Xu personally came to solicit for the safety of our Liangshan Village, full of sincerity, how can we live up to Lord Xu's kindness."

As soon as Ye Zhengwu's words came out, Xu Qingshan's eyes looked over, Ye Zhengwu was happy in his heart, when Xu Qingshan revealed his identity, he had already determined that he must take refuge in this Cangyang County Guard.

As a strong grandmaster, he accepts the solicitation of Lord Xu, if he can be valued by Lord Xu and work hard to serve Lord Xu, he may become the lord of a city in Cangyang County in the future.

But except for Ye Zhengwu and Zhou Changqing, He Yong, Yan Xia, Zhou Tie, and Yang Zhi all looked at Song Jiang and waited for his decision.

Seeing this scene, the handsome man behind Xu Qingshan raised another scale in his heart to Song Jiang.

It seems that this Song Jiang is indeed a capable person!

And Xu Qingshan is the same, his inner intention to recruit is even higher, and he needs this kind of talent very much.

In the past, Xu Qingshan could be known as a great talent in Yujing Academy, and he was naturally very smart, but there were many smart people in Kyoto, and he was not outstanding in terms of strategy, so he could only stand out quickly with his bravery.

Xu Qingshan knew in his heart that although all the families in Cangyang County were willing to cooperate with him, it was because he had not encroached on their interests, they could join forces to help him, and they could also join forces to empty themselves, do you really think that they don't want to control Cangyang County, but they don't have enough talents.

Therefore, he needs to recruit loyal talents.

In Cangyang County, even if there are great talents who come to take refuge, he will not reuse them, after all, no one knows which family those great talents come from.

The only talents he can use now are a few talents brought from Kyoto, and the handsome man behind him is a talented man from Yujing Academy, Liu Shulun.

As for Xu Qingshan's thoughts, no one else was interested, and Song Jiang, who was under the gaze of everyone, finally spoke.

"Lord Xu, you can come to the rescue in time, I am grateful, and this benevolent brother has a reasonable analysis, although Liang Shanzhai has won a big victory, it will also face a greater crisis, if you don't agree to Lord Xu's solicitation, you will be a little ignorant."

Xu Qingshan was overjoyed when he heard this.

"But ......"

The most fearful thing when negotiating is to say but.

Xu Qingshan and Zheng Shulun moved in their hearts.

Song Jiang showed a worried but resolute expression and said: "If you want to subdue Liang Shanzhai, Lord Xu, you must agree to the next condition, otherwise I would rather take Liang Shanzhai away to Yinghui County than surrender to you." ”

"Oh, what conditions!" Xu Qingshan's eyes narrowed, and he was a little dissatisfied in his heart, he was the head of a county and could come to recruit him in person, he was already full of sincerity, and he still had to negotiate conditions with him?

Song Jiang saw Xu Qingshan's dissatisfaction, but said in a very resolute tone:

"Lord Xu, our entire Liangshanzhai was established by a group of poor and homeless people, and they all had to go to Liangshanzhai as a last resort, if we surrender to the adults, they will never be left behind, please ask the adults how to arrange them."

When Xu Qingshan heard this, the dissatisfaction in his heart suddenly dissipated, "Haha, don't worry, this official will naturally accept it together, are you afraid that they will be excluded and bullied in Cangyang County?" ”

Song Jiang breathed a sigh of relief, stood up, and bowed to Xu Qingshan: "Lord Xu Mingjian, after all, we are mountain bandits, and we are easily excluded and blinded in the eyes of all families and even the people, so I implore Lord Xu to treat them equally and give them an innocent identity." ”

Seeing this, Xu Qingshan admired Song Jiang even more in his heart, and quickly got up to help Song Jiang.

"Lord Song Zhai rest assured, you brothers in Liangshanzhai, I will be directly incorporated into the county guards, and this official has already planned to make Yang Zhai the director of the county city lieutenant!"

"Really?" Song Jiang was happy.

"Of course!" Xu Qingshan said firmly, looked at Yang Zhi, and said that he valued it very much.

"Lord Xu, in addition to Brother Yang, we also have brothers like Brother Zhou, Brother Yan, and Brother He in Liangshanzhai, all of whom are talented people."

When everyone saw Song Jiang introduce them in front of Xu Qingshan, knowing that Song Jiang wanted them to be reused by Xu Qingshan, a warm current welled up in their hearts.

Brother Gongming!

Zhou Changqing and Ye Zhengwu showed even more guilt on their faces.

And Zheng Bolun looked at Song Jiang with admiration, not long after he came to Cangyang Mansion, he heard that there was a heroic man in Yinghui County, known as Song Jiang in time, who was unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness, and loved his brother generously.

When I saw it today, it really lived up to its name.

Song Jiang never thought about his status after taking refuge in adulthood, but he always cared about his brother's situation, no wonder so many people took the initiative to take refuge in Song Jiang.

"Lord Song Zhai rest assured, this official is in urgent need of talents now, and he will definitely reuse them." Xu Qingshan said that he was very satisfied, the strong people in the entire Liangshanzhai were enough to be comparable to the top forces in Cangyang County, and with them joining, he didn't need to be afraid of turning his face with the Cangyang County family.

Song Jiang looked at Zhou Tiedao:

"Tie Niu, you go and call all the leaders in Liangshan Cottage to the Juyi Hall to meet Master Xu."

"Yes."

Zhou Tie was ordered to leave.

"Lord Xu, please take a seat!" Song Jiang respectfully bowed his hand to Xu Qingshan and motioned for him to sit on the main seat above, indicating that Liang Shanzhai had surrendered.

"Haha, don't worry, Lord Song Zhai, the official will send a letter to Lu Junyi, the county guard of Yinghui County, and inform you that you are my people."

Xu Qingshan's hearty laughter resounded in the Justice Hall.

"Thank you, Lord Xu!"

Everyone in Liangshanzhai thanked them together.

………………

On the morning of the second day, just as Liang Shanzhai was packing up his things and preparing to follow Xu Qingshan back to Cangyang County, Yinghui County finally received the news of Liu Hongzhi's defeat!

In the palace, Lu Junyi was receiving two distinguished guests.

Ice and Snow Pavilion Great Elder Huang Jingyi, Tianlei Pavilion Great Elder Liu Xuekun.

A middle-aged woman, an old man.

"Report to my lord, Liu Duwei was raided by Liangshanzhai in the early hours of last night and was defeated!"

While they were having a good conversation, a messenger hurriedly barged in to report.

"What!"

Lu Junyi, who was originally polite, suddenly stood up when he heard the news of the report from the soldiers, and Huang Jingyi and Liu Xuekun also showed surprise.

"Didn't the Lin family send a Heavenly Martial Realm Great Elder there? What about him? ”

"Elder Lin Gao was killed on the spot by Yang Zhi, Captain Liu Du died, and the burning of the barracks in Liangshanzhai led to ......chaos in the army."

When the messenger was explaining the situation of this battle, the Great Elder of the Thunder Pavilion, Liu Xuekun, stood up suddenly, and the momentum of the peak of the Heavenly Martial Realm broke out in an all-round way, causing the entire hall void to sink by three points, and his eyes were staring at the messenger:

"What did you say about Liu Hongzhi!"

Liu Hongzhi, the son of Liu Xuekun!
