Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup

"Brother, your strength is truly terrifying."

Wu Song had finished dealing with things, and Yuan Lang came in through the back door.

To be honest, he had just heard the sounds of two people fighting, but out of trust in Wu Song, he did not go to help, but instead guarded the back door.

He didn't come out to check the situation until he heard a loud crashing sound of the wall breaking down in front of him.

As soon as he came out, he saw Wu Song beating Zhou Ang half to death!

"Thank you for your hard work, Brother Yuan Lang."

Wu Song felt a little embarrassed because he had enjoyed the fight so much that he hadn't left Yuan Lang a drop of soup.

"It's alright, catching the person is the most important thing, credit doesn't matter."

Yuan Lang waved his hand, saying he deserved credit.

"But brother, we need to clean up the walls and firewood in Old Wu's house. Especially the wall, there's such a big hole, we need to patch it up."

"Yes, I was so engrossed in the game that I didn't notice. I must make sure to repair the wall for my fellow villager."

Wu Song then realized that the huge hole that had been smashed into Old Wu's wall was particularly frightening, as it had caused a large portion of the earthen wall to collapse.

The yard was a complete mess, with firewood scattered all over the ground, and chairs and clothes racks overturned, making it look like the house had been ransacked.

In this state, it's definitely not possible to simply hand it back to Brother Wu; it needs to be rebuilt for him.

“Brother Yuan Lang, then you take this guy back for me, and I’ll rebuild this wall for Brother Wu.”

Adhering to the principle that one should take responsibility for one's own actions, Wu Song volunteered to stay behind and clean up the mess.

"Okay, I'll go back first, and then I'll have Brother Zongwang call some people down to help you."

Yuan Lang nodded in agreement with Wu Song's suggestion, and then escorted Zhou Ang away.

"Boss, this wall is hard to repair, the quality is quite poor. I suggest we just tear down all the walls in Brother Wu's house and build new ones for him."

Wu Song led his men to try to repair it, but one of his soldiers, who had experience in building walls, said that it was better to rebuild it than to repair it!

"Alright, then let's rebuild it for them. This time it really was our problem."

Wu Song said that this time it was indeed his fault, that he had caused losses to the people's property, and that he needed to make up for it.

"Alright, folks, the criminal has been caught. Go home now!"

Yuan Lang led Zhou Ang away, who looked like a dead dog, and before leaving, he didn't forget to tell the villagers who had come to watch the commotion that they could go back to sleep.

As for the soldiers of the Tiger-Taming Legion, they worked with their commander Wu Song to demolish the wall of Old Wu's house overnight. Then, after Tao Zongwang's men arrived, they worked together to build a new wall for him!

Old Wu probably never dreamed that after he went to visit relatives in a neighboring village, the walls around his house would be brand new when he came back!

……

"Strategist! Urgent report from Hebei!"

Yan Qing rushed to the Liangshan strategist's office with an urgent letter in his hand.

In the absence of the chief chief, everything at Liangshan was decided by the strategist.

"What's wrong, Xiao Yi?"

Zhu Wu was on duty in the strategist's office when he saw Yan Qing rushing over, and his expression immediately became serious.

Zhu Wu knew Yan Qing's character.

For him to rush over like this, it must be something important!

"Strategist, urgent report from Hebei! Tian Hu is getting desperate after being attacked by the Western Army. He seems to be trying to collude with the Khitans of Liao in order to gain their support!"

"Is Tian Hu going to betray the country? Is he going to follow in the footsteps of Shi Jingtang?"

Zhu Wu was taken aback, and immediately took the document from Yan Qing's hand to examine it closely.

"Good heavens, are they planning to hand over the entire Hedong Road and Hebei West Road to the Khitans? Tian Hu deserves to die!"

Zhu Wu read the urgent report with increasing alarm.

If Tian Hu really succeeds, the Liao Kingdom will be forced to the gates of the Song capital!

Although Liangshan looks down on the Song Dynasty, there are still so many people in these two routes! If Tian Hu really surrenders, these people will be in big trouble!

"Has Tian Hu confirmed that everyone is going to surrender to Liaodong?"

Zhu Wu was very serious. The accuracy of this news must be very high, because this matter will affect the future prospects of Liangshan.

"Not yet. Our spies say that this news has caused opposition from many of Tian Hu's men, and Tian Hu is currently undecided, but he really does seem to be considering it."

Yan Qing answered quickly.

"Is our intelligence reliable?"

Zhu Wu is being extremely careful now.

"Reliable, this message was personally relayed by the kite."

Yan Qing said that this news was absolutely reliable!

"A kite? Then the news should be true."

Upon hearing the name, Zhu Wu's doubts largely dissipated.

Clearly, this was a very important thorn in Liangshan's side with Tian Hu.

"Yes, Kite said in the letter that Tian Hu personally discussed this matter with all the civil and military officials in the Weisheng Palace, and later he also had the military generals, including him, discuss the feasibility."

Kite is a code name and an important figure in the development of Liangshan's shadow forces. He was originally from Jingnan, but came to join Liangshan after hearing about him. When Ren Yuan saw this person's name, he was shocked and immediately went to test him personally.

The result was of course very satisfactory to Ren Yuan. Considering the overall situation, Ren Yuan instructed him to pretend to defect to Tian Hu and become an inside agent for Tian Hu.

The kite readily accepted the order and then went alone to Tian Hu's place in Hebei. With his talent, he quickly came into Tian Hu's sight.

To Ren Yuan's surprise, perhaps because of Feng Zheng's exceptional talent, or perhaps because Tian Hu's side lacked talent, everything went exceptionally smoothly for Feng Zheng on Tian Hu's side, and she was quickly promoted to a high-level position! Moreover, she smoothly entered Tian Hu's upper echelons of power!

Ren Yuan and the others were shocked by his rapid promotion. They even joked that in a few years, this guy might be able to replace Tian Hu!

"If Tian Hu continues like this, his power in Hebei is likely to fall apart!"

Zhu Wu shook his head. This Tian Hu was indeed a skeleton in a tomb; in the past year, he had been making all sorts of chaotic moves. He was the first to declare himself king, and now he wanted to surrender to the Liao Kingdom!

"They're already splitting up," Fengzheng said. "Led by the emperor's brother-in-law, Wu Li, some people are already very dissatisfied with Tian Hu's rule."

Yan Qing continued.

"Reply to Kite and tell him to protect himself while trying to win over some people from Tian Hu's group who are worth winning over."

"Of course, we need to let him check it carefully. We Liangshan don't accept trash."

Zhu Wu thought for a moment and then asked Yan Qing to give the kite new instructions.

Liangshan now has a large, open territory. If Tian Hu has any decent and capable people there, Liangshan would welcome them.

"Understood, but strategist, what if Tian Hu again proposes surrendering to the Liao Kingdom and asks for Feng Zheng's opinion?"

This is the problem that Yan Qing is worried about.

Zhu Wu thought for a moment and said:

"Tell Kite to be insincere, to speak human language to human beings and ghost language to ghosts. In Tian Hu's eyes, the key is to be neither proactive, nor refuse, and not take responsibility."

"Put all the problems on Tian Hu. It's not easy for him to be alone in the enemy camp. Tell him to take good care of himself. We'll be waiting for his triumphant return at Liangshan!"

"Yes!"
