After Song Jiang finished speaking, he really asked the soldiers around him to set up camp, as if they would not leave. Qinbei Pavilion
"Brother, I'm willing to risk my life and kill!"
Yang Zhi cupped his fists at Sun Lei and said, Song Jiang is so arrogant that he must extinguish his arrogance, otherwise Liangshan's face will be lost.
"Song Jiang is still a bit scheming. If he turns around and leaves, it will be hard for me to handle him. The fact that he is camping on the spot just means that there are ambushes on the mountains on both sides."
Sun Lei shook his head and said, Song Jiang's behavior had confirmed their suspicions, so there was no need to take risks.
"Brother, this mountain is high and densely forested. If you want to go up the mountain, you may be ambushed."
Lin Chong pointed to the mountains on both sides and attacked from above. It was extremely difficult to attack from above in the face of dense forests.
"Going up some mountain, it's almost dark. Going up the mountain is going to end in death. Anyway, there are two solitary mountains. Light a fire for me and burn these two mountains. I want to see what he hides!"
Sun Lei pointed to the two solitary mountains and said, no matter what Song Jiang is hiding, the truth will be revealed once the fire burns.
"Yes, brother."
Everyone's eyes lit up, fire attack was indeed the best choice, and the enemy's conspiracy could be crushed without spending a single soldier.
…
Erlong Mountain Campground.
"Brother, then Sun Lei doesn't dare to come over!"
Deng Long and others looked proud. No matter why, they had frightened Sun Lei.
"Sun Lei didn't dare to come over!"
Song Jiang was so angry that he gritted his teeth. He originally wanted to destroy Sun Lei in one battle, but now it seems that Sun Lei is not so easily fooled.
"Fire! The mountain is on fire!"
Xue Yong pointed to the mountains on both sides. There was a fire spreading at the foot of the mountains.
"No, Sun Lei set fire to the mountain!"
Hu Yanzhuo's expression changed greatly. They were now in a low-lying area. Once the fire spread, their place would be devoured by the fire.
"Get out of the valley quickly!"
Guan Sheng roared, and the minions who were still camping just now hurriedly evacuated outside the mountain.
"Get out! Get out!"
"Get down the mountain quickly!"
…
Suddenly there was a loud shout in the valley. The sound made everyone around Song Jiang confused. The sound obviously did not come from their side.
"The sound comes from the mountains!"
"There's someone on the mountain!"
Guan Sheng and others' expressions changed at this time. They looked at the two high mountains with suspicion. Apart from them and Sun Lei, there was actually a third army nearby.
"Brother Song Jiang, what are those?"
Listening to the shouts on the mountain, everyone looked towards Song Jiang. Now it seemed that Song Jiang chose this place to ambush Sun Lei.
"Go first!"
Song Jiang was filled with hatred that the perfect trap was broken by Sun Lei.
…
"Look, there are quite a few people ambush!"
Sun Lei pointed at the people and horses that were constantly escaping on the mountains on both sides. The number was enough to be thousands.
"Song Jiang actually has so many people?"
Everyone couldn't believe it. Liangshan had only grown to 20,000 troops and horses, but Song Jiang had tens of thousands of troops in just a few months?
"These people retreated in an orderly manner, unlike ordinary bandits."
Lin Chong squinted his eyes for a long time before speaking. All he could see were some shadows of Mohu illuminated by the firelight. Even if these people retreated, they still maintained order and did not get into a mess and trample on each other. They were obviously not bandits. The way it should be.
"Yes, it's a bit strange. Look at Song Jiang's men escaping in a very embarrassed manner."
Sun Lei pointed at Song Jiang's army, which was in chaos in the dark. This is what an authentic bandit should look like when he escapes.
"It's a pity that the fire has started and we can't pursue it."
Sun Lei said with some regret that the enemy's conspiracy was exposed, all plans came to nothing, and he fled in a hurry.
It was a good time to pursue, but the fire had started and would soon spread throughout the mountain. It was too dangerous to go into the mountain to pursue now.
"The army rests where it is and will pursue again tomorrow!"
Sun Lei looked at everyone and ordered, since they can't pursue them, then take a good rest. Song Jiang's people can't run far. If they chase them tomorrow, all the truth will be revealed.
…
Song Jiang led his army to flee for dozens of miles before stopping. Looking at the two mountains that had turned into a sea of fire in the distance, they all looked horrified. They didn't expect Sun Lei to be so vicious.
"Set fire to the mountain! Does Sun Lei really want to burn us all to death?"
Yan Shun wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a face that he had survived the disaster. He was not a good person. He had done countless murders and stolen goods, and he had a lot of lives on his hands. But if he directly set fire to thousands of people, he Absolutely not.
Killing a few people and dozens of people is completely different from killing thousands of people at once. If you kill a few people, you are a wanted criminal in the local area. If you kill a few dozen people, you are a wanted criminal by the court. If you kill a few thousand people at a time, you have broken away from the ranks of criminals and bandits. You are a real rebel.
The rest of the people also looked like they were surviving a disaster, and there were lives on hand. It would not be an exaggeration to call him a villain, but villains are sometimes afraid, especially when they meet people who are more evil and ruthless than themselves.
"Song Jiang!"
A large group of people came over in the darkness. These were the people who came down from the mountain. They shouted before they got close.
"Song Jiang pays homage to the Fourth Young Master Cai!"
Song Jiang quickly stepped forward and bowed to the visitor.
"Hey Song Jiang, are you trying to kill me?"
In the darkness, Cai Sui came up with a muffled face and cursed Song Jiang. Song Jiang promised that he would lead Sun Lei into an ambush, but in the end, Sun Lei set fire to the mountain and almost burned him to death.
"Young Master Cai, I don't even know that Sun Lei dares to set fire to the mountain!"
Song Jiang worshiped Cai Sui with a look of fear.
"Fourth Young Master Cai?"
Guan Sheng, Hu Yanzhuo, and Dong Ping were all stunned when they heard this name. Who else could be called that by Song Jiang except Cai Sui, the fourth son of Cai Jing, the grand master of the dynasty?
There were different expressions on everyone's faces, including confusion, excitement, confusion, and worry.
"Get up!"
Cai Sui saw Song Jiang kneeling in submission, then looked at the thousands of minions behind Song Jiang, waved his hand and said.
"Fourth Young Master Cai, these are villains, strong men of the world, good and loyal people, and now they are all willing to worship under the Cai Mansion!"
Seeing Cai Sui keep looking at the people behind him, Song Jiang said with a smile that the Cai family wanted manpower and they wanted fame. This was a good thing that benefited both sides.
"Master Cai, this is Hu Yanzhuo, the commander of the capital of Runing County, after the famous founding general Hu Yanzan. This is the inspector of Pudong, Dadao Guan Sheng, and his ancestor is Guan Yu, the righteous and brave king of Wu'an, Guan Yunchang. This is the governor of Dongping Prefecture. The two-gun general Dong Ping..."
Song Jiang introduced them one by one to Cai Sui.
Cai Sui didn't pay much attention to the people behind him. Although his name was deceptive, it was just a fool's errand. Only Hu Yanzhuo, Guan Sheng, and Dong Ping surprised him. These three were all local generals and their abilities were beyond words. , especially Guan Sheng, who has a dignified appearance, a great appearance, and a heroic look on his face, which makes him a rare talent.
"Okay, okay! Song Gongming really didn't disappoint me!"
Cai Sui was in a good mood and looked at Song Jiang with a smile. He originally thought that Song Jiang could only recruit some unscrupulous people, but Song Jiang actually got him so many talents.
"Father is indeed very discerning. Although Song Jiang is inconspicuous, he is unique among the grassroots."
Cai Sui admired his father in his heart. The Cai family was already the head of the civil service. It was too difficult to obtain military power through formal channels, so he had to find another way.
