Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup

The Liangshan campaign to clean up the battlefield in Daming Prefecture lasted for three days.

There was no other way; there was just too much stuff in Daming Prefecture. After Qin Ming and Hua Rong took over the Daming Prefecture Horse Supervisory Office, they didn't even have time to meet up with Ren Yuan and had to rush back to the mountain ahead of schedule.

Moving things is tiring too!

Moreover, because Liangshan recruited many fishermen, river workers, and poor people in Daming Prefecture, their progress would be slowed down.

Of course, news of an incident in Daming Prefecture was not easy to keep, but three days was just enough time for Wen Daneng to take Liang Zhongshu's wife on a detour back to the capital.

Although the prefectures and counties they passed through treated them very well, none of them dared to offer Wen Da troops so that he could fight his way back.

Wen Da himself was unwilling. So many people from Liangshan had come, and the elite troops from Daming Prefecture were not here. Wen Da was not stupid!

As for what happened after everyone ran out, they realized that Suo Chao hadn't escaped. For a moment, Wen Da thought about going back to save Suo Chao.

Then, he gave up.

Because after thinking about it, he realized that although Suo Chao was very strong, even someone as strong as him couldn't escape. Although he was a little stronger than Suo Chao, he would just be a casualty if he went back.

Moreover, Liangshan had already arrested him once in Daming Prefecture, and it would be embarrassing if he were arrested again this time.

Therefore, Wen Da had no intention of going back to rescue her. He gave everyone only one instruction: protect Madam Liang, who was Cai Jing's daughter.

Throughout the journey, Wen Da was on tenterhooks, fearing that the Liangshan army might suddenly emerge from some hidden corner!

He only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the gates of Tokyo.

Finally safe! Damn, I'm so tired!

……

Wen Da has escorted Madam Liang back to Tokyo and is now safe. Meanwhile, Liang Zhongshu has received news from the people who escaped.

"What? Daming Prefecture has fallen? Who did it?"

When Liang Shijie saw the message, he was completely stunned!

I came out to patrol on behalf of Heaven, how come my house is gone?

"It was the Liangshan bandits who did it. They broke into the city and ransacked the treasury..."

"And what about the lady?"

When Liang Shijie heard that Liangshan's family had been raided, his heart skipped a beat.

"Wen Dujian protected the lady and they fought their way out. They should be back in Tokyo by now."

"That's what the soldier who came to deliver the message replied."

"And what about my home?"

"They've raided it. They raided Liangshan's warehouses, armories, the Li family's house, and other wealthy families' houses..."

"Those scoundrels from Liangshan! They've gone too far!"

Upon hearing this, Liang Shijie felt his blood churning violently!

Liangshan, you can confiscate the government treasury, fine! But why are you raiding my house?

I didn't do anything to you!

"Wait a minute, Master Li? Who is that?"

However, Liang Shijie suddenly remembered that there was a Li Yuanwai in front of his name just now.

Who is this Master Li? Did he offend Liangshan?

"That is, Li Gu, the former steward of Master Lu's household. Now everyone calls him Master Li, right? He is Master Li personally recognized by you, sir."

The soldier who delivered the message looked at Liang Zhongshu with a puzzled expression.

"Huh? Him? Then... wait, you mean? Lu Junyi's old house was also raided?"

Liang Shijie suddenly thought of a very serious question: if that were the case, would the 30% of the wealth of the Lu family that he obtained from Li Gu also be lost?

"Yes, and it was Master Lu who came back in person to seek revenge."

The soldier spoke again.

"Lu Junyi? Lu Junyi is at Liangshan? Isn't he with Tian Hu?"

Liang Shijie was dumbfounded. Wait, what's going on? Wasn't it Tian Hu who came to Daming Prefecture to rescue Lu Junyi last time? And didn't that guy even become king because of it?

How come Lu Junyi is at Liangshan now?

It's only been a short time! Do you bandits move around so frequently?

What's wrong? Can't stay in Hebei anymore? Are you going to take your martial arts to Liangshan?

"I don't know either, anyway, Lu Junyi came with Liangshan."

"My lord, should we go back and provide reinforcements? After all, Daming Prefecture is very important."

Zhou Ang was right next to Liang Zhongshu. After listening to the soldiers' report, he asked Liang Shijie if there were any plans to return to provide reinforcements.

After all, they have elite troops at their disposal.

"Vice Instructor Zhou, look at Wang Qing's condition. Do you think we can leave so easily?"

Liang Zhongshu wore a wry smile.

Yes, after Liang Shijie and his men arrived in Huaixi, they immediately engaged in combat with Wang Qing's troops!

Liang Shijie originally thought that Wang Qing was just a bandit, and he could beat him to a pulp the moment they met.

But reality always slaps you in the face. Zhou Ang couldn't gain any advantage against Du Xue and was forced to run away before he could last thirty rounds.

It was thanks to the impressive fighting strength of Zhou Ang's soldiers that Du Xue and the others were able to hold them back, and with Li Cheng's desperate assistance, Zhou Ang would have been doomed.

But now, Wang Qing's troops are right in front of Liang Shijie and his men, and small groups of soldiers come to harass them from time to time.

If Liang Shijie and his men were to suddenly retreat on a large scale at this time, they would be walking into a trap, and there would be no reason not to attack them!

"Then let's retreat tonight, and instead of going back to reinforce, let's go straight back to the capital."

Zhou Ang suggested that this time, he felt that Wang Qing's side had a lot of people, while his side only had Li Cheng and no other helpers!

"Shall we go back? But if we do that, won't His Majesty think we've handled things poorly?"

Zhou Ang's suggestion actually appealed to Liang Shijie.

However, Liang Shijie was still afraid of taking responsibility.

"Judging from the current situation, we and Wang Qing's troops have had some wins and losses, but there has been no major defeat or loss, so His Majesty will not punish us."

"Moreover, the reason we came out this time was to investigate the strength of Wang Qing's troops. Now we can be sure that Wang Qing is no less capable than Tian Hu, and those rumors can basically be considered true!"

"So this time when we return to the capital, as long as we report to the Emperor that Wang Qing also has the idea of ​​becoming king, our mission will be accomplished."

Zhou Ang truly lives up to his reputation as the deputy chief instructor of the Imperial Guards; his excuses are so well-rehearsed!

"What about Daming Prefecture?"

After all, losing one of the four capitals made Liang Zhongshu somewhat uneasy.

“Sure, just say that the Liangshan bandits took advantage of our campaign against Wang Qing and the fact that Daming Prefecture was undefended to launch a surprise attack on Daming Prefecture! They looted all the money! This shows that the Liangshan bandits also have ambitions. In that case, His Majesty should not blame us.”

"Alright, Deputy Head Coach Zhou, if we get through this smoothly, we'll be like brothers, even if we're not from the same father!"

Liang Zhongshu felt that Zhou Ang was a man worth befriending!

"Oh, no, no, I would be content as long as Your Excellency remembers me!"

Zhou Ang did not agree to Liang Zhongshu's polite words. Having served in the Imperial Guard for so long, Zhou Ang knew how to speak to these civil officials.

……

Meanwhile, on the way back to Liangshan from Daming Prefecture, a large contingent of people from Liangshan were advancing in an orderly fashion.

The Liangshan forces, along with forty to fifty thousand people from Daming Prefecture who were willing to join them, five to six thousand soldiers from Daming Prefecture who had voluntarily surrendered, and various spoils, were advancing toward Liangshan!

"Let's all work harder! Once we get to Liangshan, we'll have a new life!!"
