Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup

"Boss! There's no unusual activity from Tian Hu's unit!"

"No unusual activity from Wang Qing's troops!"

"No unusual activity from Fang La's forces!"

……

Inside the Sky Curtain Legion's camp, Shi Qian and Ma Ling had serious expressions. They were constantly writing and drawing on a large map, and if there was no unusual activity, they would put an X on a certain spot on the map.

They just said they would find out the truth about this matter for Ren Yuan within half a day, and they're not kidding!

"If it's not one of those three families, then who could it be?"

Looking at the patches of crosses on the map, Shi Qian frowned deeply!

"Boss! There's trouble west of Lingzhou! A fire broke out there not long ago! Judging from the location, it's the road that Chief Duan and his men took back!"

"Shi Qian, you stay here. I'll take some men and be right back!"

Upon hearing this, Ma Ling immediately gathered his men to prepare to go to the scene to gather information.

"Okay, be careful on the road!"

At this crucial moment, Tianmu cannot be without a commander. Ma Ling is fast, so it is appropriate to send him to scout ahead!

"Don't worry, these people who dare to openly rob and kill my Liangshan men are definitely bold! I will definitely find out who they are!"

But what Ma Ling didn't expect was that when he arrived with his men, the scene he saw made him feel a little scared!

It's burnt, it's all burnt!

The mountain road was littered with corpses piled up haphazardly, and the air was filled with the pungent smell of roasted meat that made one want to vomit! The entire valley floor was covered with black charcoal marks, and in some places, small embers still lingered.

"Look carefully, search thoroughly, see if there are any brothers who can be saved!"

Although I knew in my heart that with a fire of this intensity, there should be no survivors.

But Ma Ling still hoped for a miracle!

So he led the way into the charred remains of the people and began searching.

Hearing Ma Ling's words, his soldiers followed their leader and rushed in, shouting and searching, trying to find any brothers who were still alive.

"Boss! There's a brother here who's still alive!"

After searching for a while, just as everyone's mood was getting heavier, one of the soldiers suddenly seemed to have discovered something!

Ma Ling looked up and, after confirming the location, immediately rushed to the person's side like lightning!

"Hopeless!"

When he saw his brother who had survived, his first thought was that his brother was beyond saving.

His entire body was covered in burns, his face and hands were covered in blisters, and his lower body was a bloody mess, giving off a cooked smell.

His mouth was bulging, and when he saw Ma Ling, he opened his mouth with difficulty, and a piece of flesh fell out of his mouth!

"Boss, boss, leader..."

The man opened his mouth and spoke in a barely audible voice.

"Brother, brother, tell me, I'm listening!"

Ma Ling hurriedly put her ear to the man's mouth, eager to hear what he was saying.

"This...I...I'll bite, I'll bite..."

"This piece of flesh was bitten off by you from the enemy, wasn't it?!"

Ma Ling was very clever; he only heard a few words and immediately made a guess!

He quickly picked up the piece of flesh and wiped away the bloodstains. Although it was a bit blurry, he could see that there was a tattoo on the piece of flesh that had been bitten off!

"Yes……"

Hearing that Ma Ling was right, the man seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, a look of relief appearing on his face with difficulty, and then, he stopped moving.

"Brothers! Brothers! Brothers!"

Ma Ling was heartbroken. What a hero! He was truly a hero. His whole body was burned like this, yet he still persevered until they arrived and delivered the news before taking his last breath!

"Find the nameplates! Find all the brothers' nameplates!"

Ma Ling roared at his men, "Each Liangshan soldier has a small name tag, which they usually hide in their inner garments or on their waist."

This plaque has their names on it; it's used to identify bodies when someone is killed in action.

In situations like today, where the body is unrecognizable, nameplates become extremely useful.

"Brother Lu, don't worry, the stronghold will definitely avenge you!"

Ma Ling searched the body and found the nameplate. After wiping it clean, the three characters "Lu Renjia" were clearly visible on it.

Ma Ling gripped Lu Renjia's nameplate tightly in one hand and held the flesh of his enemy that Lu Renjia had desperately bitten off in the other. The flames of anger in his heart burned brighter and brighter!

The Lu brothers were burned alive after being injured! How painful that must have been!

Who did this?! This debt must be paid in blood!

"Find all the bodies of our brothers! Take them all back! Not one can be missing!!"

Ma Ling's angry voice echoed throughout the mountain road!

"Yes!!"

……

The atmosphere in the Liangshan Hall of Righteous Gathering was heavy at this moment.

Ma Ling arranged for his men to identify the bodies there, while he himself quickly returned to Liangshan and told Ren Yuan and the others what had happened.

Ren Yuan immediately smashed the bowl in his hand to pieces!

"Send more men! Bring all the brothers back!"

Moreover, during this period, more than a dozen brothers who were seriously injured were carried back. They had all gone to buy horses with Duan Jingzhu!

“Brother, this is intelligence that Brother Lu Renjia obtained at the cost of his life. Before he died, he said that he bit it off from the enemy.”

Ma Ling handed over the piece of skin; the tattoo on it was incomplete, but still quite clear.

That was an eye, an eye filled with murderous intent!

"Wolf eyes! It's a wolf head tattoo!"

Gongsun Sheng was the first to recognize him because he was from Jizhou, where this kind of tattoo was popular among the Liao and Jurchen people.

"Wolf heads? Aren't those Liao people and Jurchens?"

Upon hearing this, the brothers immediately understood.

"But how could they ambush my Liangshan troops near Lingzhou? That's impossible! Even if the imperial court is incompetent, it shouldn't allow them to get in like this, right?"

Hao Siwen was very surprised because they had come from the direction of Lingzhou and had not found any foreign army in Lingzhou!

"Who said there isn't?"

Upon hearing about the wolf totem, the Liao people, and the Jurchens, Ren Yuan immediately knew who was responsible!

"Brother, do you perhaps know who it is?"

"Brother, tell me, who is it? Let's fight them and get revenge!"

Mi Sheng took the lead and said through gritted teeth.

"Zeng, Tou, Shi!"

Ren Yuan spat out each word, clearly furious to the extreme!

"Zengtou City is inhabited by a group of Jurchen people!"

"Zengtou City? Junior brother, what's going on?"

Lu Junyi and Zhou Tong entered the Hall of Righteousness at this moment. They had just learned that a group of Liangshan men had been ambushed.

As soon as they entered, they heard Ren Yuan gritting his teeth and saying "Zengtou City".

“Master, Zengtou City ambushed Liangshan and brutally murdered more than two hundred of my brothers! More than two hundred! Those were all brave and valiant men! Many of their families are still waiting for them to come home this time!”

Ren Yuan's nameless anger surged up!

"This is outrageous, Third Brother! What do you plan to do?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Tong's hair and beard stood on end!

"Master, I'm going to raze Zengtou City to the ground! Leave no one alive!"

Ren Yuan's tiger-like eyes widened, and his steel teeth clenched!

"Second Senior Brother, are you coming or not?!"
