Xianxia version of Water Margin

…

At first, the recruitment of troops in Shuibo Liangshan was not smooth.

That's not to say that no one came to enlist.

But Jiang Hongfei was not satisfied with the people who came to enlist in the army.

Jiang Hongfei was greatly influenced by military books written by Qi Jiguang, such as "New Book of Ji Xiao", "Records of Military Training", "Yu Rong Yao Lue", and "New Book of Military Preparation".

Therefore, Jiang Hongfei particularly dislikes people who have fair skin, are nimble in action, and have no scruples when seeing him, because these people are slippery, unreliable at critical moments, will run away, and will drag others along with them. If they are caught by a superior, they are eloquent enough to blame others. As the saying goes, a mouse droppings can spoil a pot of soup. In the army, such people will not only be unable to fight, but will also undermine the morale of the army.

What Jiang Hongfei likes is the kind of country farmer who is dark, stout, and has solid skin. In terms of character, he is the best like Xu Sanduo in "Soldier Assault".

Although it is difficult to train such a person, once he is trained, he is very easy to command and can fight hard.

——Previously, Jiang Hongfei tried his best to recruit such people.

But this time it went against expectations. Most of the people who came to enlist were former ruffians from the Song Army and rogues from Damingfu City. There were not many recruits like Jiang Hongfei wanted.

When the Liangshan Army broke through Damingfu City, some defeated soldiers took the opportunity to plunder the people. They rushed to the houses in the lanes with weapons and armor, and forced the people to take out firewood, rice, wine and food for their enjoyment.

Among the new recruits who came to recruit, there were many such people.

These people like to take advantage of opportunities to make trouble and gather crowds to cause chaos, and their habits are hard to change.

Of course, Jiang Hongfei also knew that setting the recruitment point in Damingfu City would inevitably lead to such a result.

But Jiang Hongfei really didn't expect that most of the people who came at first were like this.

It just so happens that most of these guys are Qi practitioners who have awakened their spiritual power and can go into battle as soon as they arrive.

This led to the fact that if Jiang Hongfei kept these people, he might have recruited a large group of bad apples. It would be a pity not to recruit them.

Seeing Jiang Hongfei's brows furrowed when he saw these ruffians, scoundrels, and scoundrels, Sun Jing smiled and said, "They are so bold and dare to try everything, so they can pay the settlement fee as agreed, and no matter how good the wine and meat are, they will naturally My brother's favorite soldiers will come to surrender, and then he can form an army alone."

After listening to Sun Jing's advice, Jiang Hong suddenly became enlightened and immediately implemented Sun Jing's plan. He gave these ruffians, scoundrels, and scoundrels adequate housing expenses, and arranged for people to fry oil cakes dripping with oil at the recruitment point and cook them with a large amount. The recruits were fed and fed a piece of meat and broth, and each of them was given a dime of wine.

really!

After the initial stage, good soldiers began to be recruited one after another.

Many of these good soldiers were from the Song Army. They were the best soldiers in the Hebei Forbidden Army - most of them were recruited because of the generous treatment in Shuibo Liangshan.

They are just soldiers, they are all Han people, who should they be treated as?

In addition, a large number of laborers who groomed rivers came to enlist in the army.

——Before the Liangshan army attacked, there were exactly 30,000 slaves combing the river outside Damingfu City. Liang Zhongshu was afraid that these slaves would be used by the water in Liangshan, so he transferred them to the city as auxiliary soldiers.

These slave laborers are actually nearby customers, that is, serfs owned by nearby landlords. They are "lords and ministers" with the landlords. They are whipped and driven by the landlords, just like slaves. They must obtain permission from the landlords to move, and the landlords buy and sell land. They also change their owners according to the contract, and the landowner's exploitation of their land rent is very heavy (generally, in addition to the land tax and seeds, the owner and the guest share: the customer owns the cattle for farming, and the owner pays 60% to 70% for the cattle). In addition to land rent, they also have to bear various scientific disciplines and unpaid labor from landlords. One can imagine their hardship.

These recruits mainly came from Boliang Mountain, where they were given land allotments and generous treatment.

Many of them took leave to go home to pick up their families as soon as they had a full meal. They seemed determined to leave with Jiang Hongfei.

For these people, Jiang Hongfei asked people to give each of them a small flag that Hou Jian and others temporarily made with the words "Walking for Heaven", which was a kind of protection for them, lest their masters dared to prevent them from bringing their family members to join the group.

As for these new recruits, they are all good, but most of them are not Qi practitioners yet and must be cultivated slowly.

In short, Jiang Hongfei sent people to keep a close eye on them, singled out all the ruffians, scoundrels, and scoundrels, and formed a separate army to prevent them from mixing with any other army. The rest went smoothly.

actually--

The reason why a large number of ruffians, scoundrels, and scoundrels came to enlist in the army was because the soldiers in Shuibo Liangshan initially placed the recruitment site in Damingfu City, where the people's lives were relatively better, and those living Most of the people who can't go out are in rural areas.

Therefore, after only one day of recruiting troops in Damingfu City, Jiang Hongfei, seeing this, asked the soldiers to send half of the soldiers to recruit troops in nearby rural areas.

The effect is immediate.

That night, Bing Cao's men brought back more than 2,000 good soldiers and 6,000 to 7,000 military dependents.

Hebei has been producing good soldiers since ancient times.

The Yue family army that scared the Jin people was mainly Hebei soldiers.

This is actually one of the reasons why Jiang Hongfei expanded his army here in Daming Mansion.

…

Ever since Daming Mansion was broken, Jiang Hongfei has been very busy. It can be said that he was so busy that he hit the back of his head. He couldn't care about Lu Junyi or the Naitoushan group who were still staying in Daming Mansion City.

I won’t tell you what the latter is busy with, let’s just talk about Lu Junyi.

That day when the city of Daming Prefecture was destroyed, Lu Junyi found Jiang Hongfei and said respectfully: "Brother, lend me some people to serve as envoys to my little brother. I will go home and catch that adulterer."

Although Jiang Hongfei's troops were stretched thin at the time, Jiang Hongfei still happily sent Liu Lin and one hundred of his personal guards to go home with Lu Junyi for revenge.

But Li Gu and Jia Shi heard that Liangshan heroes came to attack Daming Mansion to save Lu Junyi, and they immediately felt bad.

But at that time, Li Gu and Jia didn't clearly realize the seriousness of the matter, so they missed their only chance to escape.

By the time Li Gu and Jia Shi thought of escaping, Liangshan's army had already reached the city.

When the Liangshan Army attacked the city, Li Gu and Jia were more nervous than anyone else.

But Li Gu pretended to be calm and comforted Jia: "Our city of Beijing is not an ordinary small town. How can a group of thieves capture it? Madam, please rest assured that in less than three days, Liang Zhongshu will be able to defeat this bold group of thieves." You and I are safe."

Who would have thought that as soon as Li Gu finished speaking, he saw fire everywhere.

Seeing this, Li Gu and Jia couldn't hold on any longer. They quickly packed up a bag of spiritual stones and treasures and carried them on their backs respectively. They didn't even dare to take any of them with their servants, and fled from Lu Junyi's house.

——To be honest, Li Gu and Jia really didn't expect that there were so many defenders in Damingfu City that they couldn't even hold on for a day, no, a night, and they didn't even have time to escape.

As soon as Li Gu and Jia escaped from Lu Junyi's house, they saw Lu Junyi coming back from the other direction with hundreds of powerful troops from a distance.

Li Gu and Jia were shocked, hid in the shadows, and then ran away along the river as if they were dead.

It was a coincidence that Yan Qing was worried when she heard that Lu Junyi had gone home to take revenge, so she asked Jiang Hongfei for leave and came specially to take care of the impulsive and reckless Lu Junyi. Zhang Shun heard that Song Jiang was left to recuperate in the attic of the prison by Chao Gai and others, and there was no one to take care of him, so he prepared to take care of Song Jiang. So the two of them went into the city together, and happened to meet Li Gu and Jia Shi who were running away.

When Yan Qing saw this, he rushed forward with two ups and downs.

When Li Gu saw Yan Qing flying towards him, he was so frightened that he abandoned Jia and plunged into the river.

Yan Qing had no choice but to grab Jia Shi first.

Zhang Shun saw Li Gu trying to escape from the water, so he jumped into the water with a slight jump.

Zhang Shun didn't even use his magical powers. He only moved his feet and came to Li Gu's side.

Li Gu was shocked when he saw this. He immediately pulled out the short knife from his waist and wanted to resist.

As everyone knows, Zhang Shun is Lu Junyi in the water. In the water, he is invincible.

Zhang Shun didn't see any movement. The next moment he went around Li Gu's back, and then pressed Li Gu's head with one hand and pushed Li Gu into the water.

It's not that Li Gu didn't want to attack Zhang Shun with the short knife in his hand, but no matter how Li Gu chopped, slashed or scratched, he couldn't even touch the corner of Zhang Shun's clothes. However, in this state, Zhang Shun could still Always press Li Gu firmly in the water.

When Li Gu no longer had the strength to resist, and took the initiative to throw away the short knife in his hand, and when he was about to suffocate himself by suffocating his own neck, Zhang Shuncai carried Li Gu ashore.

When Yan Qing and Zhang Shun escorted Li Gu and Jia to Lu Junyi's home, Lu Junyi was furious because he ran away from Li Gu and Jia.

Seeing that Yan Qing and Zhang Shun had captured Li Gu and Jia, Lu Junyi was overjoyed and wanted to deal with the adulterer and adulterer.

But just when Lu Junyi was about to take action, Yan Qing persuaded: "Master...members, today is different from the past. Should you report it to my master before dealing with this adulterous couple?"

At first, Lu Junyi had not yet reacted: "I am dealing with my own wife and my own servant, what should I report to Jiang Yan?"

But soon, Lu Junyi realized that something seemed wrong?

After a moment of reaction, Lu Junyi realized that Yan Qing's name for him had changed.

Today, Lu Junyi has become a loner in the true sense, and his loyal servant Yan Qing can be said to be the closest person to him.

But something happened to the only person he was close to at this moment.

Lu Junyi couldn't help but feel anxious: "Why didn't Xiao Yi call me master? Instead, he called Jiang Yan master?!"

Lu Junyi wanted to ask Yan Qing immediately: "What's going on? Why did you change the court, Xiao Yi?"

But after this big change, Lu Junyi has really grown a lot.

——During this period, while in prison, Lu Junyi had already thought deeply about what happened this time. It was the people from Naitoushan who plotted to kill him first. Li Gu betrayed his treason and dared to steal his family property and destroy his wife and family. His wife is a promiscuous woman, but there are also big problems with his character. If he hadn't been too conceited before and couldn't listen to other people's advice, things would never have developed to this point.

The key is that this matter involves Jiang Hongfei.

Once upon a time, Lu Junyi didn't even take Jiang Hongfei, a big man in the world of martial arts, into consideration.

But after having contact with Jiang Hongfei once, no, he hadn't even met Jiang Hongfei yet, just after seeing a group of Liangshan heroes under Jiang Hongfei, Lu Junyi knew that he was too arrogant, and Jiang Hongfei was definitely a big shot that he could never afford to offend.

Afterwards, seeing the huge difference between Shuibo Liangshan and the Zhao and Song Dynasty, Lu Junyi became more and more convinced that Jiang Hongfei was an extremely important figure.

Later, Lu Junyi was deceived by Wu Yong and stayed on Naitou Mountain for four months.

During those four months, Lu Junyi, who boasted and drank with the leaders on Naitou Mountain every day, further understood how terrifying Jiang Hongfei was.

Not to mention anything else, just by playing with him in the applause, Wu Yong and Song Jiang all suffered from Jiang Hongfei's hands. Moreover, even though Jiang Hongfei tried to deal with Wu Yong and Song Jiang, Wu Yong and Song Jiang did not dare to bear grudges against Jiang Hongfei. Jiang Hongfei had to be called brother or brother respectfully, which was enough to make Lu Junyi fear Jiang Hongfei.

And the little chieftains on Naitou Mountain, no matter who they were, would give a thumbs up to express their respect when mentioning Jiang Hongfei.

Even a reckless man like Li Kui, who was fearless, did not dare to speak nonsense when mentioning Jiang Hongfei.

During subsequent contacts or indirect contacts, Lu Junyi felt more and more unpredictable about Jiang Hongfei.

This time, Jiang Hongfei captured Damingfu City, the second largest city in the Zhao and Song Dynasties, in one fell swoop.

The key point, what makes Lu Junyi think about it is that Jiang Hongfei has been planning to attack Daming Mansion a long time ago. Taking the second largest city in the Zhao and Song Dynasty is as easy as picking out the treasure for Jiang Hongfei. .

In the past, Lu Junyi didn't think anyone could really shake the country and the country of the Zhao Song Dynasty, but since he came into contact with Jiang Hongfei, he had a vague feeling that if there was really one person in this world who could seize the country and the country of the Zhao Song Dynasty, then this person would most likely be the one. It was Jiang Hongfei who was so scheming that it made him shudder.

Therefore, when it comes to Jiang Hongfei, Lu Junyi really doesn't dare to neglect it now.

Zhang Shun is a smart man. Seeing that Lu Junyi and Yan Qing seemed to have something to say, he took the initiative and said: "I don't know if this war will affect my brothers. Let's say goodbye. We will meet again someday."

After saying this, Zhang Shun left.

After Zhang Shun left, Yan Qing did not hide anything and told Lu Junyi the whole story of how he went to ask Jiang Hongfei to save Lu Junyi.

Finally, Yan Qing said calmly: "My master is just afraid that the members will not be able to understand clearly, so he gives the members a small warning in this way. Please stop making unwise choices."

Speaking of this, Yan Qing said sincerely: "Executive members, in the eyes of villains, it may not be a bad thing for Xie to go through this incident. He has just passed his thirties, and if he can change his past mistakes, he will definitely be able to achieve great things in the future. "

After listening to Yan Qing's words quietly, Lu Junyi was silent for a long time before saying, "This is also a good thing. From now on, you and I will be like brothers."

Although he said this, Lu Junyi knew better than anyone else that the relationship between Yan Qing and him, who had already changed their names, would never go back to the past.

…

Three days later, Daming Mansion left Si Yamen behind.

Jiang Hongfei took some time out of his busy schedule to meet Lu Junyi.

As soon as they met, Lu Junyi said: "Brother, not counting the real estate, my family still has less than two million in floating wealth. Now I will dedicate all of it to my brother to thank my brother for saving my life and helping my brother to avenge his great kindness."

Jiang Hongfei declined: "This is the ancestral wealth of my dear brother, how can the Shanzhai take it? Moreover, the Shanzhai has conquered Daming Mansion this time and made a huge profit, so there is no need for my dear brother to do this."

Lu Junyi insisted: "Brother is so bad. I relied on my tiger power to rescue a lowly body, and I was so heartbroken. It is difficult to repay. This small amount of money is not dedicated to the village, but to my brother. Now I have nothing to worry about. I wholeheartedly follow my brother to achieve a great career. If I can hold a whip and stirrup with him, I am willing to be a soldier and repay the great kindness of saving my life and helping my younger brother to avenge me. I am really lucky..."

Jiang Hongfei understood clearly that Lu Junyi was "bribing" himself, hoping that he would protect him in the future.

For Lu Junyi, it is definitely better to dedicate his family property to himself than to donate his spiritual money to the village. After all, in this way, it will be clear who spent his spiritual money, saving his spiritual money. The money was wasted.

Moreover, as Lu Junyi said, he has nothing to worry about now, so there is no point in leaving the family property. He might as well use it to build a future.

Jiang Hongfei knew immediately that this was Yan Qing's idea.

At this time, Yan Qing also stood up and advised: "Yuanwai's move is also to completely break away from the past. Master should make it happen."

Seeing this, Jiang Hongfei, who was already short of spiritual money, accepted it half-heartedly.

At this time, Lu Junyi said: "Brother, I have captured the adulterous woman and adulterer. I don't know what to do with them?"

"This is my dear brother's family matter. It is inconvenient for my brother to interfere, so my dear brother can handle it by himself." Jiang Hongfei said.

The reason why Lu Junyi asked Jiang Hongfei for advice was just to show that he respected Jiang Hongfei and obeyed Jiang Hongfei. He did not really need Jiang Hongfei to help him make this idea.

This is what Yan Qing asked Lu Junyi to pay attention to.

With Jiang Hongfei's attitude, Lu Junyi asked people to drag Li Gu and Jia to the front of the hall. Then Li Gu was tied to the general pillar on the left, and Jia was tied to the general pillar on the right.

Lu Junyi came to Jia with a short knife in his hand and cursed: "I usually treat you well, why do you do this lax thing with a slave and want to kill me?!"

Knowing that she would die today, Mrs. Jia softly begged, "I miss you and I as husband and wife, and I just want to die quickly."

Lu Junyi heard this and pulled open Jia's clothes.

From Jiang Hongfei's angle, he could see Jia's body clearly.

Jiang Hongfei thought to himself: "How white."

But in the next moment, Lu Junyi raised the knife and fell, and Jia's belly was cut open and her heart was gouged out.

This kind of visual contrast made Jiang Hongfei think: "Damn it, you just do it without giving me any time to mentally prepare! This... won't affect my side, no, I have to find a woman to try later. "

It can be seen that although Lu Junyi was very cruel to Jia, he actually still had feelings for Jia, otherwise he would not be able to give Jia this pleasure.

When it was Li Gu's turn, Lu Junyi was really merciless. He hated Li Gu, a thief and slave, and turned a deaf ear to Li Gu's begging for mercy. He just killed Li Gu with one knife after another...
