Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup

The Liangshan strategists were abuzz with discussion about Tong Guan's plan to attack Liangshan.

As Ren Yuan looked at this intelligence report, his mind was filled with a multitude of thoughts.

In the original novel, Song Jiang, who accepted the imperial pardon, also led the Liangshan forces as a weapon of the Zhao Song court, fighting in the east and west, until they were almost all killed or wounded.

It now seems that Wang Qing, this womanizer who loves to live off women, is following in Song Jiang's footsteps.

However, since Wang Qing had Tong Guan as his backer and spent one million strings of cash to make peace with Cai Jing, his fate should not be as tragic as Song Jiang's in the original novel.

"Li Zhu, Liu Min, if Tong Guan really comes this time, you two will be in charge of guarding the mountain, how about that?"

Ren Yuan looked at Li Zhu and Liu Min, and then spoke.

This surprised both Li Zhu and Liu Min. They were about to say something when Ren Yuan interrupted them:

“It’s not that I don’t believe in the character of the two brothers, it’s just that the two brothers were once very loyal to Wang Qing, and you are not heartless people, so there must still be some feelings between you.”

"Since that's the case, if I still let you face off against Wang Qing, then I'm not thinking about you. So if Tong Guan comes this time, you just need to guard the mountain. Out of sight, out of mind."

Ren Yuan didn't doubt that Li Zhu or Liu Min would betray him; it was just that from his perspective, he preferred to consider the brothers' feelings.

For example, it's like you're having a great time with your current partner, and suddenly your ex, with whom you used to have a very good relationship, reappears. The best solution is to never see them again.

"Thank you for taking care of our feelings, Chief."

Li Zhu and Liu Min weren't fools; they understood Ren Yuan's meaning: he was afraid that the two of them would be reminded of the past and feel unhappy.

"But don't worry, Chief. To us, Wang Qing is just an ordinary person now. There's no need to avoid him."

"Yes, chieftain, let us join in too. It'll be a good opportunity to settle our scores with him once and for all."

"Chief, this isn't just our idea; I believe Elder Du and the others think the same way."

Hmm, what Li Zhu and Liu Min said makes sense, especially Du Xue, because Wei He died at the hands of the government troops while covering their escape. Wang Qing needs to be held responsible for Wei He's death.

Wei He is Du Xue's sworn brother, so if Du Xue knew that Wang Qing was coming, he would definitely volunteer to fight.

"Alright, then we'll leave Wang Qing's side to you brothers, including Boss Du and Brother Feng Tai, who will also be under your command."

After thinking for a moment, Ren Yuan gathered his former subordinates from Huaixi together and asked them to give their former employer, Wang Qing, an unforgettable memory.

"As for Tong Guan, he is probably short of talent. This time, he lost four military supervisors in the battle against Tian Hu, and now he doesn't know where to find replacements."

"However, we need to be a little worried about the Jingzhou navy and the Bashu navy, especially the Bashu navy. They used to be all water bandits, and their fighting power is very strong."

Qiao Daoqing said he wasn't afraid; if Tong Guan opened his mouth, so be it, but he needed to be a little careful with the online trolls.

"Brother, Ling Zhen's cannons should have yielded some results by now. Since Tong Guan is coming this time, let's just use the cannons!"

After thinking for a moment, Gongsun Sheng advised Ren Yuan:

"It just so happens that we already have an overseas base, so even if our artillery is exposed, we can withdraw in an orderly manner."

"Moreover, the Song Dynasty probably can't mobilize too many people right now. Gao Qiu has already lost over 100,000 men. If Tong Guan sends another 100,000 men here, they will be powerless to fight in the future."

"Therefore, in order to reduce the casualties of Liangshan, I implore you, brother, to deploy the artillery of the Divine Machine Army this time."

"Okay... You guys have Ling Zhen draft a plan for me later. I'll take a look first. If there are no problems, we can go straight to the artillery."

Ren Yuan has become bolder now. After all, Liangshan is now growing stronger and its overseas base is stable. It's time to take out the artillery and put it to the test.

“Brother, since that’s the case, I have another favor to ask of you.”

Xiao Jiahui suddenly said to Ren Yuan.

"what happened?"

Ren Yuan was a little curious. Xiao Jiahui, what are you trying to say with such a serious expression?

"Brother, it's time for you to become king."

Xiao Jiahui smiled slightly and expressed her thoughts.

"That's right, brother! Since the court has gone so far astray, we don't need to hide anymore. Let's declare ourselves kings!"

Zhu Wu also stated that it was time for Liangshan to take another step forward!

"Um... Old Xiao, how many times has this happened?"

Ren Yuan thought for a moment, "Isn't this the third time?"

"Hmm...this is the third time."

Xiao Jiahui replied.

"Then I refuse."

Ren Yuan resolutely refused.

"Alright, let's weigh the pieces after we finish with Tong Guan. It's settled then!"

Xiao Jiahui made the final decision! Everyone cheered when they saw that Ren Yuan did not object this time.

It's not easy! The chieftain is finally going to become king!

"Then the question arises, Strategist Xiao, what title will your brother use when he becomes king?"

Li Zhu felt that the idea of ​​becoming king was more interesting than Wang Qing coming to attack Liangshan, so he decisively changed the subject.

And you know what? Everyone is definitely more interested in this!

“Oh right, what title should I use, brother? How about using the name of our Shandong region, King Qi? King Qi is a very prestigious figure among all the kings.”

Shi Qian said that King Qi was very good.

"The King of Qi is not a good position, and Tian Hu originally intended to make my brother the King of Qi, so we can't use that right now."

"Hmm, how about we take Liangshan as our title? King Liang? Anyway, my brother is based in Liangshan."

After thinking for a moment, Ma Ling offered a different opinion.

Upon hearing this, all the strategists turned to look at Xiao Jiahui.

"It's best not to use the title 'Liang' either."

Xiao Jiahui also shook her head.

"After all, my brothers know that my ancestral state, the Southern Liang, although it was one of the Southern Dynasties, did not unify the world. It could only be said to be a corner of the country. I feel it is inappropriate for my brother to use the title of King of Liang."

"Then how about the King of Lu? After all, when the Zhou emperor conferred titles upon kings, the King of Lu was a prince of the Ji clan. In terms of bloodline, Lu is more noble."

Liu Min also offered her own perspective.

"No, no, within Shandong, it has always been called Qi-Lu. Brother doesn't even use the name of the King of Qi, let alone the name of the King of Lu."

Liu Min's suggestion was also rejected.

"Then how about using my brother's ancestral home? My brother is from Taiyuan, Taiyuan... Oops... Oh no, that bastard Tian Hu used Jin."

Gongsun Sheng originally intended to use Ren Yuan's ancestral home, but then he realized, oh no, Ren Yuan was from Taiyuan! Jin had already used it!

"Actually, Yi Qing's idea is also acceptable. Although Jin cannot be used, we can use the King of Zhao. Zhao is not bad either, is it? Among the seven states, Zhao is also a strong state."

Following Gongsun Sheng's line of thought, Qiao Daoqing continued, "Jin is no longer an option, but isn't Zhao also a good choice?"

"This is inappropriate, this Mr. Zhao seems a bit beneath me..."

Everyone began to quote classical texts and engage in a heated discussion, leaving Ren Yuan unable to get a word in edgewise.

No, it's me who's calling myself king, so am I not qualified to participate in the discussion about this title?
