Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup

At Dongshankou, Cheng Gui and his three companions looked at Ruan Xiaoqi with unease.

After learning their names, the leader suddenly became very amiable and led them out of the queue.

This left Cheng Gui and his companions somewhat bewildered.

Is this a good thing or a bad thing?

"Don't worry, your brother has known your names for a long time. He has been telling us to keep an eye on you four. It's been a year or two, and we haven't been able to find you in Qiantang. I never expected that you would come to us today!"

Ruan Xiaoqi has already sent someone to inform Ren Yuan. The Four Dragons of Zhejiang were people that Ren Yuan's brother had taken the initiative to rescue when he went to Jiangnan back then, but unfortunately he missed the opportunity. Now that they have arrived, there is no question that his brother must come and see them in person.

"Our leader, back then, we didn't know if Liangshan was looking for the four of us brothers, so..."

When Cheng Gui heard Ruan Xiaoqi say that, he felt even more ashamed.

"It's alright, the process isn't important. Now that the four of you are here, it means you're destined to be with Liangshan!"

Ruan Xiaoqi waved his hand. His brother had said that the Four Dragons of Zhejiang were good swimmers and had good military management skills. If they could be recruited, it would be a great boost to the Liangshan navy.

However, those were the days, and now is the present. The Liangshan navy is no longer what it used to be.

After a while, Cheng Gui and the other three heard a continuous shout of "Greetings, Chieftain!" coming from afar, and they immediately became tense!

The legendary leader of Liangshan has arrived!

"Xiao Qi, you said Cheng Gui and the others have arrived? Where are they?"

Ren Yuan's cheerful voice rang out, and then his tall figure appeared in everyone's sight.

Xiao Jiasui and Xu Guanzhong followed him. Because Liangshan had recently received a lot of people, almost all the leaders were busy. Ren Yuan even went to the resettlement sites of the people to inspect the situation.

It just so happens that he was inspecting a place not far from Dongshankou with Xiao Jiasui and Xu Guanzhong just now, which is why he arrived so quickly!

"Brother, Strategist Xiao, Strategist Xu, the four brothers are here."

Because it was in front of newcomers, Ruan Xiaoqi wasn't as casual this time and greeted them properly.

"Xiao Qi, you've worked hard."

Ren Yuan nodded to Ruan Xiaoqi, then looked at Cheng Gui and the others.

"Cheng Gui (Zhai Yuan, Qiao Zheng, Xie Fu) greets the Great Emperor Ziwei, Brother Ren Yuan, and the two strategists Tanlang and Wuqu!"

Before Ren Yuan could even say anything, the four of them knelt down and started talking.

Moreover, he spoke with great flair, directly using the titles on the stone tablet that had been passed down to refer to Ren Yuan and the other two.

"Please rise quickly, this is not customary in Liangshan."

Ren Yuan quickly helped them up, then looked at the four people dressed exactly alike.

“Brother Ren Yuan, we four have long admired your name, but we have never been able to meet you, which is quite a regret. We heard from this leader that you have been looking for us brothers for a long time, which makes us feel ashamed!”

As the eldest brother, Cheng Gui took the initiative to speak to Ren Yuan.

"Brother, you must be Jade Claw Dragon Cheng Gui?"

In Ren Yuan's memory, Cheng Gui was the leader of the Four Dragons of Zhejiang, so it was clear that the person who came out to talk to him now was Cheng Gui.

"Then the remaining three brothers should be the Scaled Dragon, the Wave Dragon, and the Pearl-Playing Dragon!"

"Brother, this is Cheng Gui, this is my second brother Zhai Yuan, this is my third brother Qiao Zheng, and this is my fourth brother Xie Fu. But what's with these names like Jade Claw Dragon?"

Cheng Gui was somewhat puzzled. When he heard that Liangshan was looking for the Four Dragons of Zhejiang, he never thought they were looking for his four brothers, because although the four brothers had been in Qiantang for a long time, they had never received any titles!

“You four brothers all make a living on the Qiantang River, and going in and out of the water is a daily routine for you. Aren’t you water dragons?”

Ren Yuan smiled and pointed at the four brothers:

"Jade Claw Dragon Cheng Gui, Brocade Scale Dragon Zhai Yuan, Surging Wave Dragon Qiao Zheng, and Playing Pearl Dragon Xie Fu—aren't these the Four Dragons of Zhejiang!"

"We thank you, brother, for bestowing upon us these names!"

The second brother, Zhai Yuan, was the first to react, and he pulled his brothers down to kneel.

Everyone realized what was happening. Right, they didn't have names, but their brother had just given them all names! These were names bestowed by the chieftain! What a wonderful thing!

The other three also realized what was happening. "That's right! This title was personally bestowed by the chieftain!" So they also expressed their gratitude.

"Alright, alright, we're all brothers, no need to be so formal. Let me introduce you. This is the commander of the Third Battle Group of my Liangshan Navy, the Living Yama Ruan Xiaoqi. The other two are his deputies, the Thin-faced Xiong Dicheng and the Black Dragon General Liu Menglong. It's fate that you're all from the navy!"

Ren Yuan looked at the four dragons of Zhejiang and couldn't help but think that these four were Fang La's naval commanders in the original story, but now they were under his command. In other words, Fang La's naval commanders were gone!

Haha, Fang Shisan, without the head of the online army, let's see how you manage to run an online army in the future!

"So it's Brother Tianlangxing in person! We four brothers have long admired Brother Tianlangxing's name!"

Cheng Gui and the others had certainly heard of the three Ruan brothers of Liangshan. They were also from poor backgrounds, but they made a great name for themselves in Liangshan. How could they not envy them?

"No problem, no problem, we're all brothers here. With the four of you, our online army will be even more successful!"

Ruan Xiaoqi was overjoyed, because among the four armies of Liangshan, the Imperial Guard was undoubtedly in a league of its own, and among the remaining cavalry, infantry, and navy, the navy was the weakest.

Not only are there the fewest number of battle groups, but there are also the fewest leaders, and they haven't even been able to equip each legion with a full complement of lieutenants.

Now that the four of them have arrived, well, we have a naval deputy commander now!

"Xiao Qi, you already have two deputy generals, so this time Brother Cheng Gui and the others can't be given to you."

Ren Yuan smiled and said to Ruan Xiaoqi.

"Of course, brother. Brother Zhang Shun and Fifth Brother are still short of people. You can't forget about them."

Ruan Xiaoqi also said with a smile.

"Brother Cheng Gui, Brother Zhai Yuan, you two will form the Eighth Naval Battle Group, with Cheng Gui as the commander-in-chief and Zhai Yuan as the deputy commander. Brother Qiao Zheng, you will go to the Fourth Battle Group to serve as the deputy commander under Brother Zhang Shun, and Brother Xie Fu will go to the Fifth Battle Group to serve as the deputy commander under Brother Ruan Xiaowu. What do you think?"

Ren Yuan directly arranged the destinations of the Four Dragons of Zhejiang, referencing the arrangements made for the Four Heroes of Taihu Lake in those years.

"We thank you so much, brother! From now on, we will go through fire and water for you!"

The four men, who had initially thought they would only be ordinary leaders after joining the mountain bandits, were deeply moved when they heard that Ren Yuan had assigned them the positions of a commander and three deputy commanders! They immediately knelt down before Ren Yuan!

They were just four unknown boatmen who hadn't brought anyone with them to the mountain, yet the chieftain suddenly entrusted them with an important task! Not only were they given titles, but they were also given important positions!

This is enough to prove that the chieftain values ​​them highly!

Cheng Gui had known this beforehand; a single legion of the Liangshan navy commanded three thousand men!

How long does it take to go from a lowly boatman to the commander of a naval force of three thousand men?

Cheng Gui stated that the entire process took no more than an hour!

Liangshan treated me like a national hero! I will repay them as a national hero!
