Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup

Run! Run! Run as fast as you can! Run far, far away!

Gao Qiu had only this thought in his mind at that moment.

Two bursts of laughter attracted two powerful enemies, and Gao Qiu lost all the generals he could rely on, leaving him feeling extremely uneasy.

So now, all he can do is keep whipping his horse and keep running!

Gao Qiu had already decided that once he returned to the court, he would tell the emperor that Liangshan had bullied him!

Let the officials vent my anger!

As for myself, hmph, I never want to go back to Liangshan in this lifetime. I'd rather live a life of luxury in Tokyo!

"Huchihuchi..."

The continuous high-intensity running had taken its toll on the warhorse beneath him.

In addition, the soldiers had scattered along the way, and now there are less than a hundred people still following Gao Qiu!

Just a few hours ago, Gao Qiu had an army of over 100,000 men; now, he has less than a hundred men by his side!

How ironic!

"Did they catch up?"

Gao Qiu asked as he ran.

"No, no."

The soldiers around him were also panting and struggling to answer.

"Then, let's take a break."

It wasn't that Gao Qiu really wanted to rest, but rather that his horse was already swaying precariously, and if it didn't stop for a while, it probably wouldn't be able to run anymore.

The group finally stopped. Fortunately, it was a corner with relatively flat terrain, so the nearly one hundred people quickly stopped to rest.

Gao Qiu had lost all semblance of decorum; he lay on the ground, resting against a large tree.

"Any news about General Zhou and General Qiu?"

After catching his breath for a while, Gao Qiu finally remembered that Qiu Yue and Zhou Ang hadn't returned yet.

"No, sir."

The soldiers who were still by Gao Qiu's side looked at each other and all said that they had not seen Qiu Yue and Zhou Ang.

It seems that these two who stayed behind to cover the retreat are likely doomed.

"They are all loyal subjects of the Song Dynasty!"

Gao Qiu sighed. Although he hadn't considered these two instructors as his confidants, Zhou Ang was indeed quite obsequious to him, which was a bit of a pity.

Qiu Yue, although not as ambitious as Zhou Ang, is more capable. I originally thought I could gradually recruit him as a confidant.

Now it seems unlikely that this will happen.

"You are also loyal subjects!"

Looking at the dozens of people around him, Gao Qiu began to make empty promises.

"You will escort me back to the capital! I will promote each of you three ranks and reward you with two hundred taels of silver!"

"You can choose any of the best places in the capital! How about it!"

Normally, the crowd might have responded to Gao Qiu, but at this moment, they ignored him.

Everyone is exhausted and just wants to rest. Can you please shut up?

"What? You think it's not enough?"

Seeing that no one responded to him, Gao Qiu felt a little flustered.

But after thinking about it, he raised the price again.

"Here's what we'll do: whoever protects me back will be promoted five ranks and rewarded with five hundred taels of silver!"

Good guy!

Upon hearing this, some of the crowd suddenly perked up!

"Grand Commandant is wise!"

"Thank you, Grand Commandant!"

Yes, as expected, a generous reward will surely attract brave men!

"Okay, okay, okay! You'll be fine with me!"

Gao Qiu's confidence returned, and looking at his surroundings, an irrepressible impulse surged up once again!

"Hahahaha! Hahahaha! Heaven has not forsaken Gao Qiu!"

The soldiers around them, including those who had just responded to Gao Qiu, immediately changed their expressions!

This laughter cast a long shadow over them today!

"Grand Commandant, why are you laughing again?"

"The two times I laughed loudly before, both times I attracted the attention of Liangshan..."

One of the soldiers, mustering his courage, asked.

"Well said! I really didn't expect this the first two times, but these bandits are just incompetent! If they were to set up an ambush here now, we would have no choice but to surrender!"

Gao Qiu looked at everyone and said loudly.

"But they didn't! So! We have hope of escape! Everyone, follow me closely! I will definitely lead you back to the capital!"

Gao Qiu had barely finished speaking, and before anyone could respond, "Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Then the familiar sound of a horn cannon echoed through the woods once again!

Then, another army, nearly several thousand men, poured out of the woods and surrounded nearly a hundred people, including Gao Qiu!

"Capture Gao Qiu alive! Capture Gao Qiu alive!"

The group surrounding Gao Qiu chanted slogans and repeatedly struck the ground with their long weapons, creating a rhythmic protest.

Gao Qiu was stunned by what he saw.

No way, there are still some?

Upon seeing so many Liangshan soldiers, the soldiers under his command resigned themselves and sat down on the ground.

What are you still running for? Stop running, you can't get out.

"Get up! Get up, all of you! Whoever takes me out will be promoted ten ranks and rewarded with one hundred taels of gold! One hundred taels of gold!"

Gao Qiu panicked. "No, why are you all sitting down! Get up! Charge into the enemy lines for me, Gao Qiu! Give me a chance to escape!"

This is one hundred taels of gold! Gold! How come none of you are tempted!

No one responded to Gao Qiu. Although the money was plentiful, one had to be alive to spend it.

With thousands of people blocking the road, who can break through?

If we can't fight our way out and lose our lives for nothing, what's the point of this invisible and intangible gold?

"Who is your leader! Let him come out and see me! I am the Grand Commandant! I am the Emperor's favorite! I have money! I'll give you money! I'll give you money! Please let me go!"

When Gao Qiu saw that his men were not responding, he had no choice but to call out to the Liangshan soldiers, hoping they could buy their lives.

To his disappointment, no one paid him any attention; all the Liangshan soldiers looked at him with mocking expressions.

"What kind of expressions are those?! I am the Grand Commandant! Do you even know who I am?! Let your leader come out and talk to me!"

This mocking expression deeply stung Gao Qiu!

In that instant, he seemed to have returned to his youth when he was a hooligan, and the days when he was most destitute and looked down upon by others!

Back then, those people looked at me the same way!

This is a pain that will never fade in Gao Qiu's heart!

"Gao Qiu, you were looking for me?"

A calm voice suddenly rang out from the crowd, but Gao Qiu couldn't remember who it was.

"Who are you?! How dare you address me, the Grand Commandant, by my name!"

"What? Is your name so awful that nobody can call you?"

A four-wheeled cart was slowly pushed out of the crowd. A kind-looking man sat on it, with soldiers beside him holding two sticks.

"Gao Qiu, do you still recognize me?"

The moment Gao Qiu saw this person, he suddenly felt a chill run from the top of his head to the soles of his feet!

Of course he recognized the man's face; in fact, he knew him quite well!

"Wang, Wang Jin! You, you weren't already..."

"Already what? Already dead? Even someone like Gao Qiu isn't dead, how could I possibly be dead?"

Wang Jin looked at Gao Qiu and sneered.

"The King of Hell told me that I still have a grudge against you! He told me to come back and settle this score first!"

"Wang Jin, you're actually on Liangshan! Lin Chong is here too, this damned Liangshan! Damn Liangshan!"

Gao Qiu was both shocked and furious!

However, when he saw that Wang Jin was sitting in a four-wheeled vehicle, he suddenly laughed:

"Wang Jin! So what if you're not dead? You're stuck in a four-wheeled vehicle now! What can you do to me?"

"I didn't kill you, but I crippled you! Hahahaha! You're still a piece of trash! Come and hit me! Come on!"

Wang Jin looked at the somewhat deranged Gao Qiu without saying a word, his face expressionless, waiting for him to finish laughing.

When Gao Qiu's laughter subsided, Wang Jin finally responded:

"Are you done laughing? If you are, it's my turn."

"You, you're already useless, you can only sit in a car, what can you do to me..."

Gao Qiu wanted to mock Wang Jin a bit more, but before he could finish speaking, he was suddenly stopped as if someone had grabbed his throat.

Because he saw that Wang Jin had actually stood up from the four-wheeled vehicle with ease! He walked up to the soldiers beside him, took a stick from their hands, and then flicked another stick into the air and handed it to himself!

"Gao Qiu, haven't you always held a grudge against me for showing off my stick in the street back then, and then getting knocked down by my father?"

"Come on, I'll give you a chance today. Pick up this stick, and let's have a match!"
