Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup

Liangshan.

Although the chieftain is currently absent, everything here is proceeding in an orderly manner thanks to the strategists' efforts.

In particular, the incorporation of the surrendered soldiers from Huaixi went surprisingly smoothly this time.

Liangshan gave them the organization of two legions, which was enough to show Liangshan's sincerity. Du Xue was also a reasonable person. Since Liangshan had shown sincerity, Du Xue naturally had to show his own sincerity as well.

Therefore, in the two newly established legions, Du Xue dispersed the Huaixi Lion Gang.

He himself led Liu Yijing, the Tin Lion, to be in charge of the cavalry, and Feng Tai led Lu Cheng, the Iron Lion, and Shangguan Yi, the Bronze Lion, to be in charge of the infantry. The remaining battalion commanders, captains, and other personnel were all selected by Liangshan.

At the same time, Du Xue divided the troops he brought into two parts, with each of the two battle groups taking half, which was also half the number of the army. Du Xue took the initiative to ask Liangshan to allocate the remaining half.

On Liangshan's side, Zhu Wu and the others were also very satisfied with Du Xue's arrangements.

Boss Du truly lives up to his reputation as a seasoned veteran; he knows the rules!

If you know the rules, things will be easier.

Liangshan did not mistreat the remaining half of the 11th Cavalry Regiment and the 12th Infantry Regiment. Wang Jin personally selected 4,000 able-bodied men from the reserve troops and assigned them to help these two regiments quickly form their organizational structure.

Moreover, if any of the members of these two legions still have family members in Huaixi, they can take Liangshan!

This news greatly shocked the soldiers of Huaixi, and many of them burst into tears, expressing their admiration for the benevolence and righteousness of Liangshan.

"Brother Du, just one word: now that we've come to Liangshan, we're all brothers. There's no need for such formality and politeness between brothers!"

"As long as you are willing to consider Liangshan as your home, then Liangshan will be your home!"

Sun An has been accompanying Du Xue throughout these days, and Du Xue can feel Liangshan's sincerity and goodwill throughout the entire process of recruiting them.

Moreover, the Liangshan leaders showed a strong willingness to accept the generals from Huaixi.

These are all burly men, how can they express the passionate feelings in their hearts?

It's simple: drink!

Although Lu Zhishen, the "bug," is not in Liangshan, there is another "bug" in Liangshan: drinking.

That's Wu Song!

Facing the generals of Huaixi, Wu Song decisively took off his shirt and set up a table in the Liangshan canteen, serving large jars of fine wine until it was full!

Wu Song truly lived up to his reputation as the "Drunken Tiger Subduer," single-handedly taking down ten well-known generals from Huaixi at the dinner table! And he was still conscious!

The drinking session brought tears to the eyes of the generals of Huaixi. They were all tough men, just like when Huaixi first raised its army. How could they have been betrayed without even realizing it?

If they had risked their lives to break free, and Liangshan hadn't been willing to take them in, what would they be like now?

A stray dog? A rootless duckweed?

What else is there to say? Drink! Drink as much as you can!

This drinking session was not only their first meal after joining Liangshan, but also their last farewell to their past!

From then on, Huaixi became a thing of the past!

From today onwards, they are the people of Liangshan!

So, during this drinking session, the leaders of Huaixi drank particularly heavily, and many of them started to feel that the wine was too salty.

This is not just salty, it's also a farewell to the first half of my life!

"Hahaha, you guys, you still need to practice! *burp*"

After drinking ten people under the table, Wu Song also left the table. He had no choice; he had drunk too much, his stomach was bloated, and he was even burping.

More importantly, Wu Song had a beautiful wife at home. If he went back drunk and out of his mind, his wife would scold him. He should stop while he was still conscious. He had already fought ten people, which was a good result.

In short, the Liangshan canteen was especially lively tonight!

On a large tree outside the Liangshan Canteen, a figure dressed in black and with his face covered by a black cloth sat quietly, gazing at the brightly lit Liangshan Canteen and the people drinking inside, his eyes filled with complex emotions.

Suddenly, his ears twitched as if he had heard something. He quickly changed his position, lying down on a thick branch to hide himself.

"Come down."

Under the big tree, Zhou Tong, dressed in casual clothes, stroked his beard with one hand and put the other behind his back. He walked over slowly, looked up at the tree canopy, and said slowly.

Beside him were Shi Qian and Ma Ling, the two commanders of the Sky Curtain Legion. Both of them were ready. Ma Ling took out his gold bricks, while Shi Qian held several red-tasseled spears in his hands.

However, Zhou Tong's words received no response, and it was clear that the person in the tree did not think they had been discovered.

He felt that Zhou Tong was bluffing him; the old man was always using tricks!

"Little guy, do you really think no one can see you just because you're hiding in a tree?"

"You were discovered the moment you sneaked into the mountains with your family tonight! How long are you planning to hide?"

Zhou Dong gently shook his head, seeing that there was still no response from the tree, and said to Ma Ling:

"Little Ma, hit that brat on the thickest tree trunk up there! Let's see if he can get down!"

"Okay!"

Zhou Tong gave the order, and Ma Ling naturally obeyed. He grinned and the gold brick in his hand flew up to the tree with a "whoosh"!

"Oh!"

This gold brick struck the tree trunk squarely! The impact sent leaves flying everywhere!

"You brat, get down here!"

As Ma Ling's golden brick struck, Zhou Tong spoke again. This time, Zhou Tong's voice carried the power of his dantian, causing Shi Qian beside him to show some discomfort on his face.

"Sigh, senior, I just came to check on the brothers, I have no ill intentions."

The person in the tree sighed, then flipped over and jumped down, landing silently, clearly demonstrating excellent lightness skill.

"You must be Li Zhu, the renowned strategist of Huaixi, also known as the Golden Sword Master. Strategist Li, your brothers from Huaixi have now become heroes of Liangshan. Would you be interested in joining us?"

After the man landed, Shi Qian immediately spoke to him.

"Alas... It is said that Liangshan's sky canopy covers all directions, and it is indeed well-deserved. You must be Chief Ren's beloved general, the intelligence leader of Liangshan, Shi Qian, the leader of the Drum-Flea. And that brother who used the gold brick just now must be the leader of the divine steed Ma Ling, who can travel a thousand miles a day."

The man looked at the three people in front of him, sighed deeply, and then removed the black cloth covering his face.

Sure enough, it was Assistant Li!

"Military Advisor Li, now that you're here, why don't you go in and meet them?"

Ma Ling was a little curious.

“I’m not afraid of being laughed at, but my family… Wang Qing, that guy, wanted to be recruited by the government. I was on Fangshan the whole time, but I didn’t notice this in time, which led to heavy casualties among my Huaixi soldiers on the front lines. I… I have no face to see them.”

Li Zhu shook his head sadly. He had done his best to rush to the front line to remind the Huaixi Army to be wary of a surprise attack by the Western Army.

The result was still too slow; the Huaixi army suffered heavy casualties, including the death of Wei He.

This situation filled Li Zhu with self-blame.

Then he learned that Du Xue had led the escaped army to join Liangshan and sent people to Huaixi to pick up his family.

Li Zhu then mingled in with the family members.

He wanted to see how his brothers were doing at Liangshan, for no other reason than to check on them.

Looking back now, these brothers are doing quite well at Liangshan!

“Military Advisor Li, you can come openly and honestly. You don’t need to resort to such sneaky methods. Besides, this trick of yours won’t work in Liangshan.”

Shi Qian shook his head slightly. The Liangshan Sky Curtain Legion has now planted spies throughout Liangshan. Li Zhu was discovered not long after entering the mountain. Moreover, considering Li Zhu's reputation, Shi Qian specially asked Zhou Tong to deal with him.

"Chief Shi, Chief Ma, this is my fault. I apologize to you and I'll leave now."

Li Zhu bowed to Shi Qian and Ma Ling, then prepared to leave.

But then, Zhou Tong suddenly spoke:

"Kid, you think you can just come and go as you please? Is it really that easy?"
