Although Song Jiang was a little embarrassed and annoyed by Chao Yong's behavior of robbing people, he still said: "It is already late at night, my nephew, why don't you go up to Qingfeng Mountain to rest your horse."
Chao Yong also wanted to lure Hua Rong up the mountain, so he also led his troops up the mountain.
No words for a night.
At dawn, Song Jiang and Hua Rong came to invite Chao Yong, Lin Chong and Qin Ming in person.
When everyone arrived at the Juyi Hall, Song Jiang had already arranged a banquet.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Out of curiosity, Song Jiang said: "My nephew has come from afar to work hard. Song Jiang should not bother everyone, but now Song Jiang has something to do but can't delay, so he has to ask for help shamelessly."
Chao Yong heard this, thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "But for the Huazhizhai family?"
Song Jiang nodded and said: "Exactly, everyone in Qingfeng Mountain rescued Brother Hua Rong and me before, but Huang Xin of the Three Mountains of Zhen escaped. After he returned, he stayed in Qingfeng Village, and Brother Hua Rong's family members were also trapped in Qingfeng Village. Qingfeng Village But it is easy to defend but difficult to attack. We want to recapture Brother Hua Rong's family, but we have few soldiers, so we would like to ask my nephew to help us. "
Chao Yong saw Hua Rong staring at him nervously and said with a smile: "I have heard of Xiao Li Guang Hua Rong's name a long time ago. It turns out that he is also very loyal. What can I say to you about this matter? It won't be too late. I will send troops to rescue you right away. Hua Rong brothers and their families.¡±
Seeing that Chao Yong agreed to help so happily, Hua Rong couldn't help but said gratefully: "Brother Yong is so kind, Hua Rong thanks you first."
Qin Mingzheng was worried that he would not have the courtesy to come in, so he smiled and said: "There is no need for an army of labor to do this. Qin Ming can do it alone. Firstly, Huang Xin is my subordinate, and secondly, Huang Xin's martial arts are all my guidance. Brother Yong." Just have a drink here and I'll go alone. I'll wait for him to join us and bring the Huazhizhai family members."
Chao Yong smiled and said: "In that case, that's for the best. But now that he is an official and you are a bandit, we have to guard against it. In this way, we will also lead our troops to go. If you don't come out for half an hour, I will Lead the troops to break Qingfeng Stronghold."
Although Qin Ming felt that it was not necessary, seeing that Chao Yong was also thinking about himself, he gave up.
But it was said that after Huang Xin fled to Qingfeng Village, he ordered the troops and horses in the village to be on guard at dawn and night, waiting for Qingzhou troops and horses to come for reinforcements. On this day, when I was inspecting various important places, a village soldier came to report: "Manager Qin came alone outside the village and asked to open the gate of the village."
Although Huang Xin was confused, he was a Shangguan and his teacher after all. He rushed to the village gate and saw that it was Qin Ming. He immediately opened the village gate and welcomed Qin Ming in.
When the two entered the hall, Huang Xin saw the ceremony. Qin and Ming sent their troops to attack Qingfeng Mountain. However, they fell in love with Song Jiang's plan and lost their troops. They were captured alive by Song Jiang. Song Jiang sent people to pretend to be himself and lead Qingfeng Mountain's minions to harass Qingzhou and kill the people. , harming the lives of his whole family. Unfortunately, Chao Yong, the little overlord of Liangshan, learned about it and led his troops to intercept and kill the Jin-haired tiger Yan Shun and the short-legged tiger Wang Ying who were doing evil in the city, and then chased them to Qingfeng Mountain to call for battle.
Finally, he said: "I have joined the army in Liangshan now. King Chao Tian of Liangshan is magnanimous, and there are many heroes gathered on the mountain. They do justice for heaven and do great things. You have no family, why don't you go to Liangshan with me to gather for justice? I want to do my job so that I don't have to be irritated by those civil servants. I have been fighting for the imperial court for many years and have been restrained by that civil servant. I hate that the dog official was blind and fell into Song Jiang's scheme and easily harmed my family. "
Huang Xin said: "Since the benefactor has given instructions, how dare Huang Xin disobey. I just heard about Song Jiang Renyi, how come he got together with the grass bandits in Qingfeng Mountain and came up with such a vicious plan."
Qin Ming thought of his own family and gritted his teeth and said: "This guy just claimed that it was not his intention. Hua Rong and others were deceived by his reputation, and I couldn't do anything to him. He is the Yuncheng Tiger you escorted earlier. Zhang San.¡±
Huang Xin sighed: "I knew he would harm the benefactor's family, so I killed him on the way."
Hearing this, Qin Ming shook his head and said, "You know people but don't know their hearts. Previously, I only heard about his reputation as Timely Rain, but I didn't expect him to be so ruthless."
The two sighed for a while, and when they were discussing how to bring the soldiers from Qingfeng Village to join the group, they heard the news from the soldiers, and a group of soldiers came to Qingfeng Village to kill them.
Qin Ming knew that Chao Yong had brought people to meet him, so he immediately led Huang Xin out to greet him.
When everyone came in to see Li, Song Jiang said: "I hate that woman Liu Gao. I saved her with good intentions, but she repaid her with kindness and almost killed me and Hua Rong. Please allow me to take people to kill her to satisfy my hatred."
Chao Yong naturally knew Song Jiang¡¯s vengeful character. After Song Jiang was reported by Huang Wenbing in Jiangzhou in Water Margin, Chao Gai and others risked their lives to rescue Song Jiang. Jiangzhou is already heavily guarded, and ordinary people can only endure this moment and look for opportunities to take revenge in the future. But Song Jiang asked everyone to fight against Wuwei Army and kill Huang Wenbing regardless of the danger, just to vent his evil anger.
From Chao Yong¡¯s perspective, although Liu Gao¡¯s wife reported Song Jiang, she was ungratefulHowever, the two of them are originally an official and a bandit. It is not advisable to ignore the national law just to repay a favor.
Although Chao Yong felt that Liu Gao's wife was not worthy of death, in the eyes of everyone, this ungrateful person definitely deserved to be killed. After all, a court official like Hua Rong dared to cover up Song Jiang when he knew he was absconding, which was a sign of loyalty to everyone.
Chao Yong had no choice but to say: "Since Third Uncle Song insists on doing this, Chao Yong can't stop him, but he can't kill innocent people indiscriminately. The gangsters in Qingfeng Mountain are lawless, and Third Uncle Song must be more restrained."
Song Jiang agreed, and then went to Nanzhai with Zheng Tianshou and Qingfengshan.
Hua Rong was worried about his family, so he resigned and went to Beizhai to move in with his family.
After the two of them left, Chao Yong felt uneasy again and said to Chao San: "You take a group of soldiers to inspect Nanzhai. If the Qingfeng Mountain gangsters kill innocent people indiscriminately, you must stop them."
Chao San responded and left.
Lin Chong also felt that Chao Yong had already given instructions to Song Jiang, so doing so would be unnecessary.
But not long after, one of Chao Yong's soldiers came to report that Zheng Tianshou and his men wanted to kill Liu Gao and all his family members. Fortunately, they went quickly and stopped them.
When Chao Yong heard this, he couldn't help but shook his head and said: "I'm afraid it's not Song Jiang's intention this time."
Lin Chong also heard Chao Yong's sarcasm. Remembering that he had spoken for Song Jiang last night, he couldn't help but said in embarrassment: "I only heard that Song Gongming was generous with justice and wealth, but I didn't want to be so murderous."
Not long after, Song Jiang also brought Zheng Tianshou back, and sure enough he claimed that Zheng Tianshou was angry with the woman for being ungrateful and almost did something wrong.
Soon Hua Rong also packed up his clothes and came with his family.
Chao Yong said: "The men and horses of Qingfeng Mountain killed many people before. The prefect of Qingzhou will definitely ask the imperial army to encircle and suppress them. I see that Qingfeng Mountain is just an isolated mountain. If it is besieged by the army from all sides, it will not take long to run out of food. Song Sanshu and Hua Zhi If there is no other place to go to the village, why not come with me to Liangshan? I have strong soldiers and strong horses, and there are eight hundred miles of water to hide in, so I am not afraid of being surrounded by soldiers."
Although Song Jiang was a little reluctant, thinking what Chao Yong said made sense, he had no choice but to say: "Then I will take refuge in Liangshan and follow King Chao Tian to do something."
(Personally, I think Song Jiang is unwilling to go up to Liangshan at this time. In Water Margin, when Yanshun met Song Jiang for the first time, he said that Liangshan was very prosperous, thanks to Song Jiang's gifts. It can be seen that according to the understanding of Jianghu people in Water Margin, Song Jiang was at least half The Lord of Liangshan, Song Jiang, also understood this, so he went to Liangshan to recruit troops, so I think Song Jiang was unwilling to be inferior to others at this time, and of course he would not go to Liangshan at this time, haha)
