Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup

The reinforcements from Liangshan have really come in large numbers this time.

The village chief originally came down the mountain in person, accompanied by his strategist Gongsun Sheng and Qiao Daoqing, and he brought a total of five regiments of troops.

Which five?

Qin Ming's 3rd Cavalry Regiment, Shi Bao's 4th Cavalry Regiment, Bian Xiang's 4th Infantry Regiment, Lu Zhishen's 5th Infantry Regiment, and Shan Shiqi's 8th Infantry Regiment.

With the addition of Lü Fang and Guo Sheng's personal guards, a total of 8000 people descended from Liangshan.

It should be noted that these 8000 men represent a force that 95% of the bandit strongholds in the Song Dynasty could never muster in their entire lives.

But in Liangshan, this number of men was merely a detachment of Liangshan's forces.

Comparing yourself to others is truly infuriating.

"Brother Ren Yuan, can we go a little faster?"

Liu Tang was anxious. Although Liangshan had a large force and was advancing quickly, he feared that by the time the main army arrived, the Qingfeng Mountain group would be gone.

"Don't you still have food in Qingfeng Mountain? As long as you hold your ground and wait for reinforcements, you'll be fine once we get there."

Ren Yuan said to Liu Tang.

"Let me state in advance that Liangshan is only here to rescue people, not to attack the city, and it is even less likely that we will attack Jiangzhou City to rescue Chao Gai."

“Remember this: we are only responsible for rescuing those who are trapped. If he sends you to call for help while he himself attacks the city and gets captured, then…”

Ren Yuan didn't continue, but he knew that Liu Tang should understand.

If your leader is captured and taken to the city, I can't possibly attack the city to rescue him. I would risk the lives of my Liangshan followers for that. Chao Gai is not worth that price.

Liu Tang understood, but he didn't say much because Ren Yuan was right. He couldn't ask for too much, or he would be greedy.

Moreover, Liu Tang had no good feelings towards Song Jiang throughout his life, and even harbored resentment towards him.

If you hadn't been arrested, Qingfeng Mountain's hard-won prosperity wouldn't have turned into what it is now!

But at this moment, under the walls of Jiangzhou, Chao Gai was leading his men in a desperate charge!

"Throw stones!"

Leading several hundred men to storm the prefectures and counties, Chao Gai was indeed one of the most headstrong groups in the Song Dynasty.

On the city wall, Huang Wenbing ordered the defending troops to throw stones directly!

When the rock, the size of a wine jar, crashed down, the soldiers of Qingfeng Mountain below cried out in agony!

"No retreat! Charge forward!"

Mu Hong was at the forefront, overseeing the battle. He was the one who most wanted to break through the city because his younger brother, Mu Chun, was also in the city.

Therefore, he was determined to save them!

As for the others, because Song Jiang promised them a bright future, they have no choice but to fight desperately.

"Kill!"

Chao Gai was indeed a fierce man, charging ahead alone and personally climbing the siege ladder to attack the city, which moved Song Jiang and his group a little.

"This boss may be a bit stupid, but he's definitely working very hard."

Looking at Chao Gai, who was charging at the forefront, Wang Daoren felt a sense of admiration.

"Then don't just stand there, charge!"

Whether it was intentional on the part of those on the city wall or because Chao Gai was truly exceptionally brave, after several attempts, he actually seized an opportunity and jumped onto the city wall!

"kill!"

Wielding his large cleaver left and right, Chao Gai single-handedly carved a small opening in the city wall!

Mu Hong and the others saw this and followed suit!

They really don't consider at all whether this is a trap.

"Chao Gai, you're just a country bumpkin, how dare you lead troops to attack prefectures and counties? You're really asking for trouble."

Under Huang Wenbing's command, the defenders on the city wall cleared a small gap, but they blocked all the roads from both ends. With shields in front and spears behind, Chao Gai was still trapped even though he had reached the city wall.

"I have no intention of attacking the prefectures and counties, I only ask that my brother be released! Please, sir, show mercy."

"I'm really annoyed by your so-called brotherhood."

Huang Wenbing looked at him with a mocking expression.

"However, the more of you I arrest, the higher the official rank I can get by escorting you to the capital!"

"Go! Capture them alive!"

At Huang Wenbing's command, the generals on both sides, shields in hand, pressed forward toward Chao Gai and his men!

"Kill!"

At this moment, Chao Gai truly lived up to his title of Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King. Facing this shield formation, he tried his best to advance and kill his way to Huang Wenbing's side!

Unfortunately, he was not a match for ten thousand men, nor would he increase his martial prowess just by shouting a few words. Soon he was forced to retreat repeatedly!

Seeing that things were not going well, the others around them immediately prepared to go back down the ladder.

High-ranking positions and generous salaries are desirable, but you have to be alive to receive them!

"Hold him down!"

Chao Gai was not paying attention when he suddenly tripped over something and fell down.

As soon as he fell, the government troops opposite him swarmed forward and pinned Chao Gai down.

Those who were preparing to escape did not all get away. Mu Hong and Cui Daocheng were also held down by the soldiers. It wasn't that they didn't want to escape, but there was only one ladder, and everyone was scrambling for it. They weren't agile enough and failed to grab one.

Wang Daoren and Qiu Xiaoyi, on the other hand, were able to escape smoothly because of their superior agility.

"Your Majesty, don't panic! Let's go get reinforcements!"

Before the two men went down, they didn't forget to say something to Chao Gai.

At this moment, Chao Gai was being held down tightly and didn't hear anything.

"Damn, those two guys are really fast!"

Mu Hong and Cui Daocheng, who couldn't escape, could only curse and grumble.

"See, your loyalty isn't all that great after all!"

Huang Wenbing was very happy. It was good. There were already four people in the prison: Song Jiang, Dai Zong, Li Li, and Lei Heng.

With the addition of these three now, Huang Wenbing has captured seven bandits in total! He's truly a bandit nemesis!

If this were reported to the imperial court and these people were escorted to the capital, Huang Wenbing felt that he would have to be promoted several ranks.

"Take them all back with you."

Huang Wenbing signaled his men to take the man away. Chao Gai remained silent, as if he had resigned himself to his fate.

Moreover, at this moment, his hair was disheveled, and his body was covered in blood and dust, making him look miserable.

Gongming, it's not that your brother didn't want to save you, your brother really did his best.

"You corrupt official! If you have the guts to let me go, I'll beat you to death!"

Mu Hong was also tied up. This eldest son of a landlord had never been treated like this before, so he gave Huang Wenbing a good scolding, as if only in this way could he feel better.

"You look a lot like one of the guys in jail. What, are you brothers?"

Looking at Mu Hong's somewhat familiar face, Huang Wenbing's mind was filled with the image of Mu Chun.

What did you do to my brother?!

Upon hearing this, Mu Hong also became anxious.

"It wasn't anything serious, just a few beatings. I have to say, your brother has a really stubborn and foul mouth. I couldn't stand it, so I pulled out his teeth."

“If the younger brother is not taught properly, it is the elder brother’s fault. Since your younger brother has not taught him well, then I will punish you. When you go to jail, don’t worry, you will end up like him.”

Huang Wenbing looked at Mu Hong and stuck out his tongue to lick his lips.

"Don't worry, getting a tooth pulled is a breeze, it doesn't hurt at all. The pliers just clamp down hard and pull it out!"

Mu Hong was startled, but he couldn't show any weakness on the surface!

"Come on, if I even flinch, I'm not a true hero of Qingfeng Mountain!"

"Great! I love your tough guy type. The tougher you are, the more excited I get!"

Huang Wenbing was already quite impatient; he loved seeing tough guys looking so pathetic...
