Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup

"Drive! Drive!"

The journey from the current territory of the Jin Dynasty to Liaoyang is neither too far nor too near.

Anyway, Zeng Sheng led his troops, and after traveling for a while, they arrived.

“My lord, judging from the map, once we cross that river, we should be in the territory of that Dayi clan.”

"Alright, warriors of the Great Jin, perk up! In a moment, we'll show these country bumpkins what true courage is."

Zeng Sheng was very proud of his mission to the Jin Dynasty, because according to Wanyan Xieye and others, they sent Zeng Sheng because of his ability, and no one else was as capable as him!

Moreover, to put Zeng Sheng at ease, Wanyan Aguda promised him a host of benefits.

For example, if Zeng Sheng could figure out the background of the Song people who captured Liaoyang, he could be credited with merit again when he returned.

He can no longer marry, since Zeng Sheng has already married two princesses and a county princess, but paying for it is not a problem.

Under the double temptation, Zeng Sheng's heart immediately fluttered, so he accepted the job without hesitation!

After he left, the Wanyan family members said that they could have more capable and easily controlled fools like Zeng Sheng.

"Prince Consort, do you think these Song people will cooperate with us?"

A follower asked.

"These Song people, they were able to capture Liaoyang, so they must have some ability. But after living in the Song Dynasty for so many years, I know what kind of people the Song people are."

Zeng Sheng said that although capturing Liaoyang sounds impressive, his impression of the Song people will not change easily.

"Your Highness, tell us, what were the people of the Song Dynasty like?"

"That's right, Your Highness, we've never even seen the Song people from the south. What are they like?"

"Yes, Your Highness, I've heard that Song Dynasty women are beautiful. Is that true?"

……

Upon hearing Zeng Sheng's words, his attendants also inquired with great delight.

"The men of the Song Dynasty were mostly infertile and cowardly!"

"But the women of the Zhao Song dynasty were indeed beautiful; their skin was fair and tender, and their skin was very moisturized..."

Zeng Sheng recalled his time in Zengtou City.

"My lord, you've married two princesses. Which is better, the princesses or the women of the Song Dynasty?"

"How can you compare them? My Jin princess is a princess, and the women of Zhao Song are women. They cannot be compared, right?"

Zeng Sheng certainly wouldn't dare joke about the princesses. Although he had married many, he needed to cling to the coattails of two princesses to secure his position.

Besides, although the two princesses' legs weren't as white and soft as those of women from the Central Plains, they had been living on horseback for many years, so they were strong!

Hold on tight to this kind of powerful figure!

If he no longer has the princess or the noblewoman behind him, Zeng Sheng will immediately lose everything.

"Yes, yes, this can't be compared."

"The prince consort is right!"

"That's right! Even if the women of our Great Jin Dynasty aren't as fair-skinned as the women of the Zhao Song Dynasty, they are still more beautiful than them!"

……

Zeng Sheng's words drew nods of agreement from his followers, and they then began to change the subject:

"Prince Consort, do you think the Song people who have captured Liaoyang will form an alliance with us?"

"The Song people are too weak. They worship the strong. If we are strong, they will come running to us. This alliance meeting will definitely be a success!"

"You all need to be prepared. You might have to show off your skills and keep the atmosphere calm! Whoever does a good job, I'll recommend them for a major commendation!"

Zeng Sheng said, "As long as you work hard with me, you'll have everything you need in the future!"

"The prince consort is wise!"

"We'll do as the prince consort says!"

"Prince Consort! I also want to marry the princess!"

……

On the border of Dayi, Shi Jin, wearing a mask, was followed by his elite soldiers, who were on high alert for the arrival of the Jurchens.

"Big Brother, do you think we'll succeed this time?"

Chen Da and Yang Chun, who were also wearing masks, asked Shi Jin quietly from behind.

"The strategist said our mission is to bring Zeng Sheng back to Liaoyang and separate him from his men. As long as everyone understands this, it won't be difficult."

Shi Jin's handsome face was hidden behind a mask, so others couldn't see his expression.

"The thought of Zengtou City stealing our horses makes me uncomfortable, let alone having to chat and laugh with Zeng Sheng later."

Chen Da said he couldn't do this job.

"I'm not telling you to joke around. Just don't start fighting right away. Wait until you bring them into the city, separate Zeng Sheng and the soldiers, and it's best to make your move when they're unarmed. That way, you'll minimize casualties."

"If you ask me, Zeng Sheng has more influence than his master Shi Wengong back then. My brother has already entered the Liaoyang Palace to prepare to meet him."

Yang Chun said that Zeng Sheng's purpose in coming here was probably just to expedite his brother's entry into the palace.

"Then we have to thank him. Otherwise, it wouldn't be appropriate for my status to live outside every day."

Shi Jin said that his uncle had been living outside the palace for so long after taking Liaoyang, which was unreasonable.

"General! The men have arrived!"

The three chatted casually until a scout came to report that dust was billowing up on the northern road, and that people were approaching.

Shi Jin quickly signaled the entire army to make final preparations.

"Giddy up! Giddy up! Whoa..."

Zeng Sheng was running around with his entourage when he suddenly saw an army ahead!

This made Zeng Sheng feel his eyelids twitch, and he immediately reined in his horse, signaling his attendants behind him to stop.

"My lord, what's wrong?"

The Jurchen soldiers behind him had some questions.

"Murderous."

Zeng Sheng was able to escape from Zengtou City and even cross the Liao Kingdom's territory to reach the Jurchens. He truly fought his way out, and he was very sensitive to killing intent.

"Killing intent? Impossible, Prince Consort! They're just Song people. Where would they get killing intent from? They're more like idiots."

The vast majority of those who came out with Zeng Sheng this time were veterans who had followed Wanyan Aguda before the Jin uprising. They had probably won too many battles and were now arrogant, not taking others seriously.

"No, get ready."

Zeng Sheng felt his eyelids twitching even more violently.

Every time he got closer to the boundary, his eyelids would twitch more violently, which gave Zeng Sheng a terrible headache.

It wasn't like this during the Song Dynasty!

"Who goes there! State your name!"

Shi Jin also saw Zeng Sheng and the people behind him. He went out alone, took a deep breath, and let out a long howl, which made the resentment he had felt while waiting very real.

“Bibalazeng Sheng! I am the Imperial Son-in-Law of the Great Jin Dynasty! I have come on the orders of my Emperor to discuss the alliance with His Majesty the Emperor of Dayi! Who are you?”

Zeng Sheng countered with a question.

"Commander of the Third Army of the Dayi Infantry!"

Shi Jin's answer was very firm.

"I have been waiting here for a long time as ordered! Envoy of the Jin Kingdom, please follow me!"

As soon as Shi Jin finished speaking, Chen Da and Yang Chun behind him suddenly raised their weapons into the sky!

"Huh!"

Seeing the actions of the two generals, the soldiers of the Third Army behind them also raised their weapons and slammed them into the ground!

"Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!"

Although there were only a few hundred people, their military might was immediately apparent! Zeng Sheng felt an invisible pressure coming towards him, making it hard for him to breathe! The Jurchen followers behind him, who had been making a lot of noise just now, also fell silent.

My eyelids are twitching even more!

In his mind, Zeng Sheng was cursing wildly:

Who said these people were from the Song Dynasty!

How could the Song Dynasty possibly have an army of this caliber?!

Who exactly are these masked guys?!
