Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup

Xu Guanzhong was genuinely surprised to see Ren Yuan playfully bickering with Xiao Jiasui.

Although I had heard that Ren Yuan was nothing like other strongmen, he was a people-oriented person who was particularly kind to his brothers.

Before meeting Ren Yuan, Xu Guanzhong thought that others might have exaggerated, but now it seems that, well, it was definitely not exaggerated, and even underestimated!

Whose boss and his men would have a snowball fight in the snow?

Only Liangshan would do!

"Brother, don't think that just because you've broken through to the half-step peak level you can beat me. Let me tell you... Waaaaah."

Xiao Jiasui's martial arts skills are certainly impressive, but it depends on who he's compared to. Against Ren Yuan, he really wouldn't be able to win. That's why Ren Yuan hit him in the face with a snowball.

"Alright, alright, stop fooling around, Guanzhong. Don't be surprised. This kid is used to being a playboy. Sometimes we really need to teach him a lesson. You'll be neighbors for a while, so please keep an eye on him for me too."

After Ren Yuan gained the upper hand, he stopped arguing with Xiao Jiasui and turned to Xu Guanzhong.

“Both of you are skilled in both literature and martial arts, and Guan Zhong, you were even a martial arts graduate. You are perfect for keeping him in check. Otherwise, this kid is currently running wild every day because he thinks none of the strategists on the mountain can beat him. If it weren’t for Mr. Wen being there to keep him in check, this kid would be flying high.”

Ren Yuan had said before that if there was a strategist who could deal with Xiao Jiasui, it would only be Xu Guanzhong. These two were somewhat like Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong.

Well, "Sleeping Dragon and Young Phoenix"... of course, the best kind of Sleeping Dragon and Young Phoenix.

"I think Brother Xiao is an interesting person."

Xu Guanzhong looked at Xiao Jiasui, and for some reason, he felt that he would get along well with him.

Moreover, he now feels that Liangshan is indeed worth doing something for.

To be honest, before Xiao Jiasui went up the mountain, he was originally a hermit, but he was too good at learning and spent too much time with Ren Yuan, so naturally he became... well, you know.

For example, right now:

"Brother, let's see the magic weapon!"

Ren Yuan felt his collar being pulled open at the back of his neck, and then a cold thing was shoved inside! It sent a shiver down his spine!

"Xiao Jiahui! You better not let me catch you!"

"What's all the noise about? This is a free clinic, everyone be quiet!"

Huawei poked its head out and shouted angrily at the two, immediately calming Ren Yuan and Xiao Jiasui down.

"It's really strange that the chieftain and the strategist are acting like neither of them every day."

Although Huawei was grumbling and complaining, the expression on their faces was one of genuine satisfaction.

"Senior Hua, perhaps this is what makes the chieftain different from others."

An Daoquan said that this is exactly the kind of person his chieftain is, and that's his charm!

"Sigh, I also hope he can stay like this forever, but the problem is, what about the future... right? If he takes that position in the future, can he still stay like this?"

Huawei sighed, perhaps thinking of the former Emperor Shenzong.

"We'll talk about the future later. At least for now, the chieftain has made all the brothers happy and all the people feel at ease. That's enough, isn't it?"

An Daoquan didn't think that much about it, but considering that Huawei was, after all, a former imperial physician, he could understand Huawei's thoughts.

"I hope so. Anyway, I don't understand your chieftain's current methods. Let alone the Song Dynasty, there weren't many like him even in the Han and Tang Dynasties."

Huawei looked out the window at Ren Yuan, who was standing obediently with Xiao Jiahui. Although he was still nagging, the lines on his face softened.

"Senior Hua, you smiled."

An Daoquan told Huawei.

"Don't talk nonsense, I didn't."

“You do, Senior Hua. We doctors don’t lie.”

"Hmm? Xiao An, I think I've remembered some of the contents of my ancestor's 'Qing Nang Shu'..."

"Huh? Senior Hua, I must have been mistaken. You weren't laughing, you definitely weren't laughing..."

……

Several days later, at the Liangshan Hall of Righteous Gathering.

Ren Yuan and the leaders who were not on duty were all here.

"Brother, give the order!"

Yang Zhi, fully armored, was full of vigor and high spirits. He had been waiting for this day for far too long.

Beside him, also fully armed, was his deputy, Han Tao.

Standing next to Yang Zhi was Ou Peng, the commander of the Kunpeng Naval Battle Group. Behind them were Ruan Xiaowu, the commander of the Fifth Naval Battle Group, and the Sun brothers, Sun Li and Sun Xin, from the Tenth Infantry Battle Group.

"Brothers, news has come back from the Pinghai Army that the sea routes are clear this time. So, it's time for Liangshan to launch an attack on Jeju Island!"

"This is the first time Liangshan has launched an offensive against overseas islands! We must understand that this is not just about taking this island! Not just about reclaiming our Han homeland! It's about laying the foundation for a future for our stronghold!"

"With overseas territories, Liangshan will have the resources to go forward! Therefore, this battle is also a life-or-death battle for Liangshan!"

Ren Yuan stood on the steps in the middle of the Hall of Gathering Righteousness, exuding heroic spirit.

"Yang Zhi!"

"The general is here!"

Yang Zhi stepped forward and knelt on one knee to pay his respects.

"Yang Zhi, you are determined to restore the Yang family's prestige, and I promised you that. Today is the day to fulfill my promise!"

"Please present the command tally!!"

The junior officer beside him stepped forward carrying a tray decorated with red silk cloth, on which was placed a very exquisite military command tally.

"Yang Zhi, this time, you are the commander-in-chief of Liangshan's eastern expeditionary force! In addition to your own 6th Cavalry Regiment, the Kunpeng Naval Regiment, the 5th Naval Regiment, the 10th Infantry Regiment, and the 2,000 troops from the Pinghai Navy supporting us, all are under your command!"

"Tell me, are you confident you can take Jeju Island?"

"Have!"

With tears in his eyes, Yang Zhihu stepped forward and carefully accepted the command token.

He knew that there were many people in Liangshan who could be the commander-in-chief for this expedition, and many of them were stronger than him, but the chieftain gave him the opportunity. This showed how much he cared about him and valued him!

"Brother, rest assured! Brothers, rest assured! Even if I, Yang Zhi, have to give my life this time, I will take Jeju Island for you all! Otherwise, I'll offer my head as a reward!"

"Hey, hey, Commander, what are you saying, you unlucky thing? We're all brothers, what would we need your head for? Brothers, what do you say?"

When Xiao Jiahui saw Yang Zhi's appearance, she quickly tried to relieve his psychological pressure. This Commander Yang had finally felt a little more at ease, and she didn't want him to cause any more problems by holding it in.

His words immediately drew laughter from the men below.

"Hahaha. That's right, Commander, you've got the credit this time, but you'll have to help your brother out next time!"

"That's right! Commander, after you restore the Yang family's prestige on Jeju Island this time, remember to treat the brothers to a drink when you get back!"

"That's right! Yang Zhi, we men of Guanzhong must not forget our roots. Fight well! I'm rooting for you!"

"Your Excellency, I spent three days and three nights forging this tiger tally. You'd better bring it back safely for me!"

The laughter of the crowd eased the atmosphere considerably, and Yang Zhi was also amused and smiled.

"Chief, who should we send as the military advisor this time?"

Wen Huanzhang stood up and asked with a smile.

"This……"

Before Ren Yuan could speak, he heard a voice coming from outside the Hall of Gathering Righteousness.

"I am deeply grateful for the chief's kindness. I am filled with trepidation. If the chief doesn't mind, please let me go this time!"
