Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup

"Hua Rong! Why haven't you sent troops yet? Are you in cahoots with these bandits, which is why you haven't sent any troops?"

Inside Qingfeng Village, the village magistrate, Liu Gao, jiggled his fat face and spat out saliva.

"Liu, watch your words! My brother was just attacked. How could I possibly be colluding with thieves!"

Hua Yun stood behind her brother, also dressed in military uniform. Her eyebrows were raised in anger, and she wished she could punch Liu Gao in front of her.

"Hua Yun, mind your place! Your brother is the deputy magistrate, and who are you?"

Liu Gao's lecherous gaze swept over Hua Yun, then he spoke to Hua Rong in a serious tone once more:

"Hua Rong, you'd better hurry up and prepare to send troops. I've already petitioned Prefect Murong. It's only a matter of time before you send troops. As for Hua Yun, it's a pity she's going to the battlefield with you. Like I said, if you marry her to me, we'll be in-laws, and you'll be my brother-in-law. I would never harm you. When we join forces, this whole area will be ours, won't it?"

"Pooh!"

Hua Rong spat out a mouthful of saliva, then looked at Liu Gao and said:

"Oh, I'm sorry, Magistrate Liu. I just heard a toad croaking from who-knows-where. My saliva wasn't directed at you. Please continue."

"Hmph, fine, Hua Rong, you're something else. Well, you just wait. Once Prefect Murong's order arrives, you'll be there whether you like it or not! We'll see!"

Looking at the phlegm at his feet, Liu Gao was furious. He knew Hua Rong was insulting him, but there was nothing he could do; he could only vent his anger verbally. After all, in a real fight, ten of him wouldn't be enough to defeat one Hua Rong.

Fine, since you don't know what's good for you, then when you're captured by the Three Mountains' men, humph, not to mention your own sister, your wife, and even your adopted sister, I'll take them all!

The thought of possibly having three different, glamorous women in the near future made Liu Gao feel hot all over!

"Go and send a message to Sanshan. Double the reward! Hua Rong is going to die!"

……

White Tiger Mountain, at this moment, is covered in white mourning clothes. (As mentioned earlier, the martial arts world has changed, things have moved forward, and the Kong brothers had already joined the outlaws long before.)

All the henchmen were dressed in white and wore white headbands.

Because their chief chief, Mao Tou Xing Kong Ming, died.

Someone shot him through the throat with an arrow, and there was no way to save him.

"Brother! I will avenge you! I will kill Hua Rong with my own hands and cut off his head to place in front of your grave!"

In the mourning hall, Kongming's coffin was placed in the middle, with incense, flowers, and candles all prepared. Only one star, Kongming, was bright. He knelt alone on the ground, his eyes red and his face full of grief and indignation.

Hua Rong, the Little Li Guang!

The hatred for killing my brother! An irreconcilable enmity!

“My disciple, do not get agitated. Hua Rong is an official appointed by the imperial court. You must not do anything foolish.”

Behind Kong Liang was a figure wearing a black hooded cloak, seemingly afraid of being recognized, and with a hemp rope tied around his waist.

However, although this person was sitting in a chair, his posture was somewhat awkward, as if he had some discomfort in his buttocks and could not sit comfortably.

"Master, you also have brothers. I ask you, if Uncle-Master Song Qing were killed, would you seek revenge?"

Upon hearing that someone was going to stop him from taking revenge, Kong Liang's eyes turned even redder. He suddenly turned his head and looked at the figure.

"Alas, you fool."

The man sighed, lifted his hood, and revealed a large, dark face.

That's right, this person is Song Jiang.

"How can these be the same? Those who achieve great things don't concern themselves with trifles; for the sake of the great cause, someone has to make sacrifices!"

"If it's for our great cause, I won't say a word even if your Uncle-Master Song Qing is gone."

"A grand undertaking! Master! You talk about a grand undertaking every day! But what exactly is a grand undertaking!"

Kong Liang suddenly stood up and walked a few steps to Song Jiang!

"Back then, you said you wanted to do great things, become an official, and commit murder and arson before being granted amnesty! My brother and I heard that, so we came to White Tiger Mountain and became outlaws. Now we have gathered four or five hundred people. We've done all the murder and arson, when will we be granted amnesty?"

Those who aspire to great things must avoid being impatient and impetuous! With such a hasty mindset, how can you accomplish anything?

Song Jiang was still trying to persuade him.

"My brother is gone! Gone! He was my only brother! How can I not be heartbroken!"

Kong Liang wouldn't listen to a word.

"Master, didn't you say you were influential in officialdom? Didn't you say you knew a lot of people? Then why didn't you kill Hua Rong for me?! Or is it that you didn't know those people at all, Master?!"

"So that's why you want to get involved in the underworld, to have influence on both the legitimate and criminal sides?"

"Snapped!"

"You insolent brat! How dare you speak to your master like that!"

A crisp slap echoed in the mourning hall. Song Jiang suddenly stood up and slapped his disciple!

Kong Liang's left cheek swelled up at a speed visible to the naked eye!

Song Jiang lost his composure!

Because of him, his own apprentice touched a raw nerve!

He did know quite a few people, but none of them would actually help a minor official!

In the Song Dynasty court, officials were officials and clerks were clerks. It was extremely difficult to become an official from a clerk!

Sometimes, even money can't help!

Song Jiang felt very frustrated. He felt that he had great ambitions and should become an official to realize his aspirations!

The problem is that he is neither good at literature nor martial arts; Song Jiang failed both the imperial examinations and the military examinations.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have remained a minor official for so long.

Why did Song Jiang choose to be the commander-in-chief when the three regions launched a joint attack on Liangshan not long ago? It was because the old magistrate of Yuncheng at the time told him that if he went, he would be recommended!

He knew, of course, that there was a huge gap between officials in the Song Dynasty, and what the old magistrate said was basically impossible.

But the problem is, he really, really, really wants to be an official!

Even the slightest chance!

He, Song Jiang, will also strive for it!

"Hehe, Master, you're getting impatient!"

Although Kong Liang was slapped, he was not angry at all. Instead, he laughed, but his laugh was a little weird.

"Look at you, Master, you're so anxious! My brother is dead! How can I not be anxious!"

Kong Liang finally roared!

"You can't touch Hua Rong!"

Song Jiang was also getting anxious! He had a plan in mind, a plan that required Hua Rong!

"Master, I cannot comply!"

Kong Liang showed Song Jiang absolutely no respect; he had only one thought in mind: kill Hua Rong and avenge his brother!

"How dare you disobey me! You rebellious disciple!"

Song Jiang's dark face turned red!

He hates it most when people don't listen to him!

"Master, I advise you not to stop me in this matter!"

At this moment, only Kong Liang and Song Jiang were in the mourning hall, facing each other. Kong Liang, who usually listened to his master in everything, had now become so dark that he no longer recognized his own family.

"You rebellious disciple! Heaven, Earth, Emperor, Parents, and Teacher! If you don't listen to me, I'll expel you from the sect!"

Song Jiang unleashed his final, ultimate move!

"Hehe, Master, you never seem to dare to say in public that your disciple is a bandit from White Tiger Mountain, right? How many people do you think know about our relationship?"

Kong Liang's voice gradually became abnormal.

"Besides, after all the things you've done, do you think you can still continue to operate in the legitimate world if the imperial court finds out?"

"you!"

Song Jiang's expression changed drastically!

"If you dare ruin my career, I'll fight you to the death!"

"Hehe, anyone who stands in my way of revenge, I'll fight them to the death!"

"Traitor! Traitor!"
