Outlaws of the Marsh

Chapter 352
...

More than twenty!

Only twenty or so!

Qin Ming and Dong Ping, who seemed to be invincible at ordinary times, were respectively defeated by those two mysterious masters whom Song Jiang and others regarded as "little people", and then they were captured by these two mysterious masters and handed over to Liu Tang and Bai Sheng respectively.

Who are these two people, so powerful?
They are Li Yan's favorite generals Yao Xing and Shi Wengong.

Li Yan is not Chao Gai, he has never trusted Song Jiang, and he also expected that Song Jiang would not let Erlong Mountain fall apart easily, so he sent Yao Xing and Shi Wengong to protect Chao Gai and others.

In addition to sending Yao Xing and Shi Wengong to protect Chao Gai and others, Li Yan also sent the First Battalion, Ma Yijun, and Zan Tong to respond to the U.S. forces—once a signal is sent from the mountain, they will attack Erlong Mountain.

In addition, in order to ensure the safety of Chao Gai and others, Yue Fei also brought a hundred masters with Hong Tianlei to mix with the horse army brought back by Chao Gai and went to Erlong Mountain.

In short, Chao Gai's trip is foolproof.

That's why Chao Gai is so confident.

The five hundred swordsmen brought in by Li Kui, Li Gun, and Xiang Chong dared not move even under the threat of hundreds of Thunderbolts.

Of course, the reason why the reckless and belligerent Li Kui threw the mouse so easily was more because Li Cheng and Wen Da cut down Dai Zong, Shi Wei and others without much effort, and then captured Song Jiang in front of Guan Sheng.

The matter has come to this point, Song Jiang can only say: "Win the king and lose the bandit, since Song Jiang lost, let the king of heaven deal with it, just ask the king of heaven to see that Song Jiang has saved your life, and put other people on the face of everyone being brothers. One horse, fulfilling loyalty."

Li Kui said: "Brother don't want to say such frustrating words, whoever dares to touch a hair of my brother, Tie Niu will sacrifice his life, and he will be chopped into meat sauce!"

Song Jiang said: "Stop messing around with black servants. A real man stands above heaven and earth. If you lose, you will lose. If you lose, you can't afford to lose!"

Wu Yong moved his eyes slightly, then looked at Chao Gai, and said, "Baozheng, you, I, Yasi, Zhu Dutou, and Lei Dutou are all from the same township, and you, Zhu Dutou, Lei Dutou, and Yasi I've been friends for decades, this time, even if Yasi did something wrong, it's definitely not a personal grievance with you, it's just that we all have different ideas, I'm begging you to take care of Yasi because of the past love This time, just as we said before, we will go down the mountain with those who are willing to go with us." Seeing that Yue Fei, Yao Xing, and Shi Wengong were about to open their mouths, Wu Yong hurriedly added: "The money and food that belongs to us, we No more, how about it?"

While saying this, Wu Yong kept begging Zhu Tong and Lei Heng with his eyes, hoping that they could stand up and speak for Song Jiang.

Wu Yong said that they had been friends with Song Jiang for decades, which made Zhu Dian a little unbearable, so he pleaded for Song Jiang: "Heavenly King, it is wrong for the governor to harm you, but we will finally get to know each other. Let him be unkind, but not us." Injustice, let him be spared this time."

The two brothers Mu Hong and Mu Chun did not return to Erlong Mountain, and Song Jiang was not sure whether they were captured by Chao Gai. In addition, Song Jiang has now become a fish on the cutting board, so Song Jiang did not deny that he had killed Chao Gai. .

Seeing that Zhu Tong had spoken, Lei Heng also said: "Our former friends are now running out, Heavenly King, please spare his life."

Chao Gai let out a long sigh, then lifted up his robe, cut off a piece and threw it at Song Jiang, saying, "Take your people down the mountain!"

……

After all, Song Jiang has been operating in Erlong Mountain for many years.

Although there is not a copper coin or a grain of grain, there are still nearly ten thousand people who are willing to go with Song Jiang.

Most of them were from Yuanyan Mountain, Lengyan Mountain, Qingyun Mountain, Qingzhen Mountain, Shejiao Ridge, and Huyi Mountain—from the leader to the subordinates, almost all the people from these hills went down the mountain with Song Jiang.

Although Qin Ming, Dong Ping, Dai Zong, Shi Wei and others were seriously injured, they all survived by luck and were carried down the mountain by Huang Xin, Yan Shun, Li Kui, Li Gun, Xiang Chong and others.

As soon as they went down the mountain, Song Jiang and others bumped into two brothers Mu Hong and Mu Chun who were wandering down the mountain disguised as beggars.

So far, Song Jiang knew that he had been fooled by Chao Gai, and Chao Gai had no evidence at all.

But the matter has come to this point, even if we know, what's the point?
Song Jiang gathered a group of leaders together and asked, "What should I do now?"

Kuang Jinlong said: "Chao Gai is so hateful, he even snatched away his armor and horses, leaving me with no capital to earn food!"

Wu Yongdao: "This is not what the Heavenly King meant, but what Shi Wengong, Yao Xing, and Yue Fei meant. If there was no Heavenly King, we would definitely not be ordered to go down the mountain this time. We shouldn't hate the Heavenly King."

Ma Yuandao: "Why is the military advisor still speaking for that fellow Chao Gai? If it wasn't because of him, we would have ended up in this dismal end?"

Wu Yongdao: "I'm just talking about the facts."

Kuang Jinlong, Ma Yuan and others wanted to say more, Song Jiang said: "Okay, don't talk anymore, the most urgent thing now is to quickly find a place to stay."

This is indeed a priority.

There are more than 1 bandits without armor. To the officers and soldiers, they are nothing but great military exploits. As long as anyone knows their true status, they will definitely come to encircle and suppress them.

So, they really had to find a place to stay quickly.

Song Jiang asked: "Do you know any suitable hills nearby for me to rest?"

Di Lei said, "How about my original Qingyun Mountain?"

Wu Yong shook his head and said, "I'm afraid that if we don't go halfway, we will meet officers and soldiers."

Qin Huidao: "The nearest Qingyun Mountain is not good, so our original mountain is also not good."

Wu Yong said: "That's right, we have to find a safe place nearby to rest before making further plans."

At this time, Li Kui interjected, "I know a mountain."

Song Jiang said: "Hei servants are not allowed to make trouble, we are discussing business matters!"

Li Kui said anxiously: "I do know a mountain, not far from here, how can I make trouble?"

An irritable Song Jiang wanted to reprimand Li Kui, but Wu Yong stood up in time to smooth things over, saying: "Since no one else has a suitable place, why not let Tieniu talk about it, maybe Tieniu is well-informed and can solve our problem."

Li Kui said: "It's still a military officer who knows things well. I know that Tieniu has the best news... A few days ago, I went down the mountain to have a drink. I heard that there was a mountain with dead trees not far away. Gather five or seven hundred young men, occupy the dry tree mountain, rob houses, and have two or three hundred war horses under your command."

After Zhang Kui heard this, he continued, "I know that this dry tree mountain is not too far from here. The terrain there is also considered dangerous, and it can barely be regarded as a place where he can live. And that Bao Xu is ugly and has a hand. Wields a broadsword and loves to kill."

Hearing that Bao Xu likes to kill people, Li Kui said happily, "He must be a famous hero. I'll go and meet him later, and come back to seek revenge in the future!"

No one else can say a better place.

Moreover, more than 1 people are too ostentatious to stay on the road all the time.

In addition, Song Jiang was also worried that Li Yan and Chao Gai would go back on their word.

Therefore, Song Jiang made a decisive decision—and rushed to Kushu Mountain to join the mourning door god Bao Xu.
