For Song Jiang, going to Liangshan was just a helpless choice at the beginning. It was impossible for him to let himself be a bandit forever.
The heroes of Liangshan may be said to be heroes, but they still cannot change their identity as bandits. If this identity is not washed away, there will be no shortage of encirclement and suppression campaigns by the imperial court in the future!
What's more, what will happen if the brothers have children after a few years? Are they going to let their children become kings of the mountain like them?
Now that there is a great opportunity, he must seize this opportunity and complete the transition from gangster to official.
Therefore, it has to be said that Song Jiang was inevitably tempted by Wu Yong's suggestion. If the group of people headed by Shi Zhixuan are all blinded with the Mongolian sweat medicine, and then they are all temporarily placed under house arrest, then they will take the lead in contacting the court to open up the door. When the matter was a foregone conclusion, Shi Zhixuan and the others' objections were ineffective.
As for Prince Su, whom Shi Zhixuan and the others support, although there has been an imperial edict recently, anyone with a discerning eye will know that there are flaws in this matter at a glance. Those who really speak out for Prince Su are just ambitions with ulterior motives. Home.
Song Jiang does not have that much ambition, not to mention that the current King Su is indeed weak compared to the court and is not worth mentioning. If the brothers really follow King Su, their future will definitely be uncertain.
Therefore, under Wu Yong's design, Song Jiang organized a Hongmen Banquet and prepared to put Shi Zhixuan and his family under house arrest. However, it is certainly impossible to deceive Shi Zhixuan with the tricks Wu used.
Shi Zhixuan took advantage of this incident to attack Song Jiang at the Hongmen Banquet, hoping to take this opportunity to completely suppress Song Jiang's faction.
Until this moment, Song Jiang had never thought of using violent conflict to solve the problem. However, even if he is unwilling to use weapons, sometimes the development of things cannot be controlled by her alone!
As Song Jiang's die-hard younger brother, Li Kui is absolutely loyal to Song Jiang. And there is a cruel side to his character, which should not be said to be cruel. Just as Jin Shengtan commented that Li Kui was "innocent", Li Kui sounded innocent, but in fact he was heartless and he was not aware of it at all. His cruel side is more terrifying than pure cruelty.
Faced with the aggressiveness of Shi Zhixuan's group towards Song Jiang, Song Jiang himself was still struggling to hold on, but instead Li Kui, his younger brother, took the lead and struck with a pair of axes in his hands.
This change happened so fast that Song Jiang had no time to stop it.
Who are Shi Zhixuan and Zhao Deyan? They are both famous masters in the demonic world.
When it comes to righteousness, there are of course those who are true knights, but there are also those who are called righteous, but are actually outright hypocrites. Therefore, some people in the righteous path also do all kinds of bad things, and sometimes they are even more hateful than those in the demonic path!
However, if some people in the righteous path do bad things, could it be that the devil is a good person? It is just the difference between a true villain and a hypocrite! The devil is called the devil by the world, and there is a reason behind it!
Demon masters like Shi Zhixuan and Zhao Deyan are definitely masters of killing without blinking an eye. Li Kui's ax has almost hit their foreheads, how could these two people hold back even half a cent?
Although Li Kui is ranked quite high among the one hundred and eight generals, it does not mean that his strength is really worthy of this ranking. Li Kui, who was only at the top of the first-class level and whose basic strength was only 89 points, was easily killed when faced with Zhao Deyan, who was in the late stage of Grand Master.
Now that there has been blood, the situation is completely unsustainable, and the two sides have completely begun to fight.
Although there are many people on Song Jiang's side, there are no masters. Hua Rong, Zhang Qing, and Zhu Ding only have super-class strength.
As for Shi Zhixuan, there are several heaven-level masters!
Therefore, after the real fight started, Song Jiang's side, which seemed to have a large number of men, suffered a big loss.
This is why Wu Yong does not support direct confrontation with swordsmen, but instead wants to use methods such as Mongolian sweat medicine to deal with Shi Zhixuan.
In the melee, Zhu Changqing, Zhu Gui, Zhu Fu, Shi En, Cai Fu, and Cai Qing were killed by Chang Yuchun and Lan Yu together.
Wang Dingliu, Yu Baosi, Bai Sheng, Shi Qian, Duan Jingzhu also died in the hands of Shang Rang, Yan Qing, Qiu Qiongying and others.
Zhao Deyan went on a killing spree and killed more than a dozen Liangshan leaders, large and small, including Kong Ming, Kong Liang, Wang Ying, Tao Zongwang, Lehe, and Du Xing.
Lu Junyi, on the other hand, was able to defeat Hua Rong, Zhang Qing, Zhu Dian, and Mu Hong all by himself.
As for Shi Zhixuan, he was not in a hurry to take action and was standing by to intimidate everyone. After all, those neutral factions are all unstable factors. People like Nan Xuanfeng, Wu Changkong, and Xu Xingdao must be on guard against them when it is time to guard against them!
With such a big thing happening in the village, it was impossible for Chao Gai not to receive the news, but by the time he arrived, it was already too late, and the corpses of his brothers were everywhere on the ground.
Chao Gai was furious and quickly tried his best to stop them. After all, they were the nominal leaders of the village. Nan Xuanfeng and the others had to give this face. After all, they joined the battle circle and wanted to separate the two waves of people who were fighting each other.
Wu Yong saw clearly and knew that after this night, it was absolutely impossible for the two sides to continue to coexist peacefully. Even if they are restrained tonight, sooner or later they will meet again.
Therefore, Wu Yong took advantage of the chaos and took Song Jiang and left Liangshan, ready to find another way out. Also leaving with him were Hua Rong, Zhang Qing, Zhu Dian, Mu Hong, Du Xing, Li Zhong, Zhou Tong, Song Wan, Du Qian, Mu Chun, Song Qing, Jiao Ting, Shi Yong.
In addition, not long after the two groups of people started fighting, Xu Beimiao, Xu Ruobing, and Xu Xingdao recently left Liangshan without anyone noticing, and no one knows where they went!
These people were not sincere in joining Liangshan, and they had always been at odds with each other after going up the mountain. Now that they have found an opportunity, it is not incomprehensible for them to take the opportunity to leave!
This time, the fire inside Liangshan had more impact than that. Chao Gai was also disheartened because of what happened around the fire. He retired sadly regardless of the mess in Liangshan.
Chao Gai and Song Jiang both left. With the help of Zhao Deyan and Chang Yuchun, Shi Zhixuan successfully gathered Nan Xuanfeng, Xu Ning, Yang Zhi, Suo Chao, Shi Jin, Tang Yuanlong, Tang Yuanhu, Tang Yuanfeng, and Li Chunqiu. Gu Xifeng, Gu Nanhai, Wu Changkong, Sun Xin, Gu Dasao, Zhang Qing, Sun Erniang, Zou Yuan, Zou Run, Xiao Rang, and Pei Xuan also started a new era for Liangshan.
