Chapter 374
Ning Liheng.
Chai Zhi walked rustlingly on the ground and wrote these three characters. Zhu Wu sat on the steps in front of the altar, watching the afternoon sun slanting in and the dust dancing in the air.
"Ning Liheng... Ning Liheng... Has anyone heard of this name before..."
What came out of his mouth was not a question, but after a while, someone still answered: "I haven't heard of it, but the important thing is what to do now."
The one who spoke was Zhang Shun who had just walked in from the door. At this time, besides Zhu Wu, Zhang Shun, Yan Qing, Lu Fang, Sun Xin and other leaders near the ruined temple in the mountain, there were also dozens of injured people. Light or heavy Liangshan minions are here.
For Ning Yi, these "no-name" people may not get too much human rights treatment, but as the most elite bandits in Liangshan, they did play a great role in the fight and escape along the way. role.The reason why these people were selected by Liangshan is that they are all experienced in the world. They have set up suspicious formations along the way to cover up their traces. Only at this time can they really deal with the wounds and be able to breathe a little bit, but after this blow Now, the entire ruined temple and the people in the forest near the ruined temple are also in a state of depression.
When Zhu Wu and Zhang Shun were talking, Yan Qing, who was wrapped in bandages and her eyes were bloodshot, had already entered from outside the door.I only heard Zhu Wu say: "Take a rest, everyone will leave, what else can I do?"
"Let's go? This time things are done like this, how can we go! Brothers... I don't know how many of them have been arrested. Where can we go now!"
The one who said this was the slightly injured "Little Marquis Wen" Lu Fang. Holding Fang Tian's painted halberd, he stood up on the ground after a while.Zhu Wu glanced at him: "What if I don't leave?"
"Not to mention those who have already gone, brothers who fell into the hands of the thief, we won't just ignore them like this!"
"But so many people can't stay here..."
"I saw Brother Shi Yongshi surrounded by more than ten people during the chaotic battle, I'm afraid they have already gone..." Sun Xin interjected a little dejectedly.
"Yuanwai was just arrested. If I don't leave, I have to go back." Yan Qing stood by the door and said.He is very popular in Liangshan, and even though there is no strict seating arrangement in Liangshan at this time, Lu Junyi's second place is a certainty. Zhang Shun looked at him and said, "Let's go? How do we go? This time, more than 200 of us gathered together. , is there only 40 people left to go back? Let Brother Lu and the others be arrested? Let’s go back to the mountain, what others say... people must be rescued..."
"This is not the Daming Mansion, it's too far away from Mount Liang, we'll be counted on by that person..."
"Brother Ruan, are they nearby? How far away?"
"No, have you called me to throw myself into the net again? They will arrive at Kaifeng Mansion in only three to five days..."
"Then what can we do, Brother Zhu?"
"...I can't go, I can only stay and wait for an opportunity to save people... But the injured brothers still have to go back first, no matter what the mountain decides..." Zhu Wu struggled for a long time, and finally expressed his position like this, "We If there are fewer people, it is better to act together. But Ning Liheng... Brother Yan, have you learned anything during the past few days on the fleet?"
"Jiangning's number one genius, you guys have seen it too. I'm in my twenties. I only met him once, so I don't know anything. If you didn't mention it later, I wouldn't have known about his holiday with Brother Xi..." After Yan Qing said this with a gloomy face and a blunt tone, she took a breath and said, "But brother Zhu is right, their morale is high now, we all stay here, and we will all get in. I won't leave, but I think... everyone should leave first, then Ning Liheng is not easy, let's not be taken over by him."
After he finished speaking, he turned around and was about to go out. Lu Fang said over there: "Are you kidding? It's not easy. He was counted once. Victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs. That guy is only in his early twenties. We are really afraid." He won't make it! If I, Lu Fang, don't leave, I will kill him when I find an opportunity."
Zhang Shundao: "They are going up the waterway, if they want to be dragged, I will find a way to chisel their boat."
"Think twice, if you go now, you will be ambushed instead." Zhu Wu frowned, thinking with his head down.
Zhang Shun looked at him and said: "Brother Zhu, among us, you are the one who is the best at planning. I can't do it, I can only use reckless methods. This time we are only temporarily frustrated. If you have ideas, we will be brothers. Always trust you the most."
After he finished speaking, the others also nodded.The frustration of everyone this time seems to be just a problem in one link, no matter how to plan, the one who can be trusted is Zhu Wu after all.Zhu Wu lowered his head and thought for a while, and finally nodded:
"I see. I thought about it later. Ning Liheng looked amazing, but in fact he did more things to prepare for a rainy day. After Brother Yan arrived on the boat, Ning Liheng suddenly became a member after his name was reported. Making trouble means that he only had doubts about Brother Yan before, and it is not a complete plan. Otherwise, he would attack without saying a word, and Brother Yan would not be able to hide... Maybe I was thinking too much. Anyway, wait Let's first determine the method for the brothers to return to Liangshan, and then... we will go back and see if we can wait for the opportunity to save people."
He spoke and stood up.At this time, the light of the sky shone through the tree gap into the temple gate, Yan Qing came over, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Thank you." He also nodded.The rest of the people began to make preparations, wiped their weapons, tightened their bandages, or closed their eyes to meditate.To them, just staying up for one night is not a big deal, but the continuous fighting in the middle of the night and the subsequent escape still made everyone very tired.
And here, besides conceiving the possibility of saving people in his mind, Zhu Wu has already started writing letters to be sent to Liangshan, or to some brothers on the way.
This time, it may not be said that there is no turning point, but it cannot be settled easily. For him, it is a complete failure.Of course, if he can find a glimmer of hope in such a desperate situation, he still has the hope of regaining his fortune.
On Liangshan, he is not a recruiter.Everything this time can be said to have arisen from this.
Ever since the head of the Song Dynasty went up the mountain, Liangshan has always shown a tendency to recruit security.This was the wish of Chief Song, and most people knew that it would be a good thing if they could be recruited. After all, being a bandit for a lifetime has no future at all.For a long time, this seemed to be the only way out.People who are not from the Zhao'an faction are vague about the future, and they don't really have any resonance with each other.These things have only changed since Fang La captured Hangzhou.
For Zhu Wu and others who are used to the green forest, taking refuge in the imperial court is actually not a very exciting thing, it can only be said to be the only choice when there is no choice.However, under the general trend that the situation in the north and the south began to change drastically, everyone finally saw a glimmer of hope.Now that the Wu Dynasty wants to suppress Fang La in the south, and faces repeated failures in the Liao Dynasty in the north, it doesn't care about Liangshanbo at all, and even Tian Hu and Wang Qing are the beneficiaries.Under such circumstances, if they can really rise up and shout the slogan that princes and generals are better than each other, it is not hopeless.
Most of the more than [-] people above Liangshan are still without foresight after all. For them, since they became bandits, the first thing they think about is their future as bandits.Leader Song wants to recruit security, this kind of thinking cannot be said in the open.When the idea of rebellion began to become apparent, Liangshan as a whole could not sit still.This time, all the people were sent down the mountain to really raise the banner of Liangshan.
The soldiers were divided into several groups, including robbing prisons in Jiangning and other places, rescuing the captured people under Fangla's command, and contacting Fangla's branch that became scattered again after Hangzhou was broken.In the final analysis, after Fang La's defeat, he wanted to accept his defeated soldiers, and even tell other green forest people that Liangshan has a better future. After all, they were defeated, and they were saved by us.But in Zhu Wu's journey, the last thing he chose to make himself famous was Jie Shengchen Gang.
For a long time, Song Jiang, Wu Yong and others were unwilling to break faces with the royal family. Even if they sent everyone out this time, they still left in their hearts the idea that "after Liangshan grows stronger, it can still raise the bargaining chip for security".Zhu Wu directly robbed the birth plan, as long as he left his reputation after success, everyone in the Zhao'an faction could only eat Coptis chinensis dumbly and admit it with a smile.It can be said to be a clever plan to draw salary from the bottom of the pot, but unfortunately it fell short in the end.
But no matter what, even though Zhu Wu had been saying that this was not the Daming Mansion.However, Lu Junyi was arrested, and on Liangshan, he might still have to mobilize people. If he can find a way to settle the matter before the arrival of the large army, he will still be able to find a way out. After all, being able to kill from thousands of people is already very good up.
This matter must be difficult, but so far, he can only see walking.
As for Ning Liheng, after all, this is the only fight, and he still has the confidence to equalize the situation in his heart.
So had the whole thing in mind.After writing the letter, Yan Qing and the others were about to go back to the pier to investigate the situation. Zhu Wu arranged for the people around the small temple to quickly evacuate to the new location, followed by Yan Qing and Zhang Shun. , Turning back together, the three of them are good hands, just to investigate the situation, the possibility of being surrounded is still small after all.
At the same moment, in the light of dusk, Ning Yi and Wen Renbuer walked on the side of the ship: "The news has been released?"
Wen Renbuer nodded, and looked at the scene on the pier: "It's all released. Now, even a tea egg seller around here knows about the capture of the gangsters in Liangshan, and they will be arrested tomorrow." Broken legs, hung from the mast to die in the sun."
Ning Yi looked at a stall selling tea eggs from a distance: "Such cruelty, will it cause any resistance?"
Wenren Buer laughed: "How is it possible, everyone is very happy, and the crowd is excited. By tomorrow morning, there will probably be many people from all over the world to watch the fun... But, Liheng, are you sure it will be useful?"
"I don't know." Ning Yi still looked at the scene outside the pier, and his eyes kept looking further afield, "But theoretically speaking, because they made a mistake and were arrested as the second-in-command, they can't go back Yes, we can only stay here and follow until the second in command is rescued or it is confirmed that he is dead, so..."
He paused for a moment, then looked at Wen Renbuer, and smiled as if he was a little uncertain: "So, no matter which bandit den... I think it should look like this, right?"
