Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup

Zhu Long and Zhu Hu were blocked by Lin Chong and Yang Zhi. Hu Cheng and Xu Ning pretended to fight, and he even turned his horse around and ran in another direction!

Xu Ning naturally understood his meaning, so he followed him.

Luan Tingyu realized that his apprentice was no match for Lin Chong and Yang Zhi, and was about to go to their aid when he looked up and saw Qin Ming already wielding a spiked club, rushing towards him!

"The general will be named!"

Luan Tingyu shouted loudly.

"What a nuisance! The one who will kill you is none other than Thunderbolt Qin Ming!"

Qin Ming roared, his voice like thunder, and his spiked club, carrying immense force, came crashing down on Luan Tingyu's head, giving him no chance to continue speaking.

With no other choice, he could only raise his spear and meet Qin Ming head-on!

Qin Ming's spiked club has been reforged by Tang Long. It now weighs forty-five jin and is made of the finest wrought iron. When wielded, it is awe-inspiring, and its sharp spikes are terrifying to behold!

Facing an opponent of this caliber, Luan Tingyu had to be on his guard, otherwise his life could be in danger at any moment!

"what!"

On Zhu Long's side, under Lin Chong's force, Zhu Long, who was injured in the buttocks, could not hold on any longer. After more than ten rounds of fighting, Lin Chong seized an opening and thrust his spear into Zhu Long's chest, causing Zhu Long to fall off his horse!

"My son!"

At this moment, Zhu Chaofeng, who arrived late, came to the gate of the village. When he looked up, he saw Zhu Long falling off his horse, which made him so sad that he burst into tears.

But what happened next was even worse. Zhu Hu, who was fighting with Yang Zhi, became half-fearful when he saw his brother fall from his horse.

Just as he was about to turn his horse around and gallop back to the formation, Yang Zhi pierced the horse's leg with his spear. The warhorse, in pain, threw Zhu Hu off. As Zhu Hu was dizzy and disoriented, Yang Zhi also jumped off his horse, drawing his ancestral treasured sword from his waist! A flash of white light appeared!

Zhu Hu's head flew high into the air. Yang Zhi grabbed his hair in mid-air, flipped back onto his horse, and held Zhu Hu's head high to intimidate the crowd.

"Listen up, people of Zhujiazhuang! Those who surrender will not be killed! If you resist, this is your fate!"

At this moment, Yang Zhi exuded an overwhelming aura, which truly shocked everyone.

But then, the Liangshan troops cheered!

"Good heavens, the killing intent he exudes is so strong? It's completely different from what he did in the mountain stronghold."

Shi Jin remarked that Yang Zhi was usually a bit of a silent figure in the mountain stronghold, rarely showing up or speaking except when training his own sixth battalion.

But seeing Yang Zhi so ferocious on the battlefield today is truly a rare sight.

"My fellow townsman is feeling very aggrieved."

Looking at Yang Zhi, Lu Zhishen was also deeply moved.

He was one of Yang Zhi's few good friends in Liangshan. As fellow natives of Guanzhong, Yang Zhi once drank and cried all night in Lu Zhishen's arms, expressing his many grievances.

Therefore, Lu Zhishen could understand Yang Zhi's behavior; Zhu Hu's head was a way for Yang Zhi to vent his anger!

"Master, you still need to give him more guidance and encouragement."

Ren Yuan also said this to Lu Zhishen.

“Brother, you’re much better at comforting people than I am. I’m afraid the only way to alleviate Brother Yang’s heartache is to fight more battles. But this Zhu Family Village is really terrible.”

Lu Zhishen shook his head. He had originally thought that the Zhu Family Village would be particularly difficult to attack, but now it seemed that Liangshan had overestimated them.

"Master, let the infantry prepare. Their gate will be difficult for the cavalry to breach."

"Order."

Lu Zhishen led Shi Jin down, and the other infantry battalions also needed to prepare.

"Dragon! Tiger!"

Standing atop the village gate, Zhu Chaofeng watched as his eldest and second sons perished one after another. His heart ached as if it were being torn apart. He immediately shouted to Zhu Biao:

"Biao'er! Come back quickly! Come back quickly!"

But at this moment, Zhu Biao was drunk and shocked by the deaths of his two older brothers, so he couldn't listen to anything else.

"Those Liangshan bandits! They killed my brother! This is an irreconcilable hatred! Men! Follow me and kill them!"

Zhu Biao had several hundred men under his command who obeyed his orders. As soon as he shouted, the Zhu Family Village troops rushed over, and the scene was about to turn from a duel between generals into a chaotic melee!

"clang!"

"You bastards, what are you doing charging! Retreat and hold your ground!"

On Luan Tingyu's side, he quickly blocked Qin Ming's spiked club and turned around to shout at Zhu Biao.

It's one thing to have "bi" in one's name, but how can one's personality really be that bizarre!

But Zhu Biao's eyes were already red with anger, and he couldn't listen to anyone else's words at all!

"Biao'er, Biao'er! All members of the Zhu Family Village, protect Biao'er! Charge! All of you, charge!"

Zhu Chaofeng realized he was doomed; his youngest son had charged in too! What could he do? He had no choice but to have his troops follow suit! Only in this way could he increase Zhu Biao's chances of survival!

"Master! We can't charge!"

Luan Tingyu blocked Qin Ming's spiked club once again, and then shouted again.

But the next second, he felt a great force coming from the spiked club in front of him, which knocked him and his horse back several steps!

"You dare to get distracted while fighting me? I'll let it go once, but you're going to keep going on and on? Luan Tingyu, do you look down on me?!"

Qin Ming held the stick in one hand, pointed it at Luan Tingyu, and said:

"If you're a real man, don't run away! Fight me fair and square for a hundred or two rounds! The outcome is up to fate, and you can use your meteor hammer as you please. Just stop trying to feign defeat to lure the enemy."

"Besides, your village is already in such a chaotic state, where would you get an ambush?"

Qin Ming's words left Luan Tingyu with no choice. Liangshan's arrival was sudden, and he hadn't had time to arrange enough ambushes. Now, he could only fight Qin Ming one-on-one.

But is Thunderbolt Qin Ming so easy to deal with?

"Commander Qin! I've long admired your name, Thunderbolt. Everyone says you died in battle at Liangshan, but I never expected you to actually join Liangshan!"

Luan Tingyu could only try to change Qin Ming's mindset through verbal attacks.

"Hmph, I, Qin Ming, wasn't born lowly and forced to be someone's dog! What's wrong with me going to Liangshan and being a decent human being?"

"Does everyone have to be like you, possessing superb martial arts skills, yet destined to be a local tyrant in this rural landlord's house?"

Qin Ming responded while dueling with him.

"You, you really are Qin Ming?"

Luan Tingyu truly hadn't expected this. Everyone said that Qin Ming, the Thunderbolt of Kaizhou behind the mountain, had a fiery temper and would explode at the slightest provocation! He would start a fight at the drop of a hat!

How come he's now mocking others?

"You're curious, aren't you? Dismount, surrender, and come with me to Liangshan, then you'll find out."

Qin Ming noticed that Luan Tingyu was somewhat flustered, so he took the opportunity to distract him. Then, while Luan Tingyu was distracted, Qin Ming increased the force of his spiked club, which significantly reduced Luan Tingyu's spear momentum.

"Qin Ming, you cheated!"

In a duel between masters, victory or defeat is decided by the slightest margin. Moreover, Qin Ming was already slightly stronger than Luan Tingyu. After gaining the upper hand, Luan Tingyu could only parry and defend, unable to escape!

At this moment, the scene was already somewhat chaotic. Zhu Biao's Zhu Family Village troops were engaged in a fierce battle with the Liangshan infantry and cavalry. Because there was not much open space in front of the Zhu Family Village, the formations that could be deployed were limited. Although Liangshan had the advantage in troop strength, it was difficult for them to make their move.

"Send the signal for a three-pronged attack!"

Ren Yuan gave the order: In this situation, we should launch a general offensive to throw the enemy into chaos and achieve better results!

The junior officer beside him nodded and took out a bamboo tube-shaped object, which was a signal flare developed by Ling Zhen's Shenji Battalion.

He unscrewed the cap, lit the fuse, and with a "whoosh," a cloud of fireworks shot into the sky and exploded.

Although it was daytime, it was still clearly visible.

"Liangshan Army, attack!!"

Upon seeing the signal flare, the Liangshan soldiers outside the other two gates of Zhu Family Village also rushed towards the village under the leadership of their commander!

Hu Cheng, where are your men? Open the door now!
