Across the Water Margin: Officials of Ximen

Yeluchun said that since the Liao Kingdom concluded the "Chanyuan Alliance" with the Great Song Dynasty, the previous emperors of all dynasties have kept the alliance, and have never used weapons against the Song Dynasty.Now when Liao is facing domestic and foreign troubles, Song Guo has betrayed his promise, and his soldiers are overwhelming the country, stabbing his allies in the back, which is really a villainous act.

Yeluchun had reasons and evidences, scolding Zhang Bao and Zhao Zhong speechless, they didn't know how to explain.

Immediately afterwards, Yeluchun took out evidence that Zhang Bao and Zhao Zhong had instigated rebellion against the Liao people, convicted and beheaded the two envoys.

After the two envoys were killed, the Xuanfu Si Yamen, who still did not give up, sent people to Yizhou, which borders Xiongzhou in the northwest, to contact the local powerful Shi Cheng, and asked him to rebel and sacrifice Yizhou.

However, Shi Cheng, a powerful man in Yizhou, was unmoved. He kidnapped the secret envoy of the Song Army to Yanjing and beheaded him for the crime of espionage.

The secret envoy of the Song Army really said that "the wind is rustling, the water is cold, and the strong men will never return when they leave."

At this time, Tong Guan knew that the strategy of lobbying the local Han people in Yandi to be powerful would not work, and he was very displeased with Zhao Liangsi who made the suggestion.

When Zhao Liangsi was disheartened, he thought of Ma Kuo, who was with him as an envoy to the Kingdom of Jin, and recommended him to Tong Guan.

Therefore, Taiwei Tongguan decided to send Ma Kuo out of Yanjing City.

When Ma Kuo was ordered to go north, Zhong Shidao's army arrived in Xiongzhou City.Accompanied by Jiao Ting and Brother Qiao Yun, Ximen Qing arrived outside Zhong's army's camp.

Chapter 784 The Wayward Flower Monk (Repair)

Outside the city of Xiongzhou, various Western armies arrived one after another and camped outside the city.

Although Mr. Zhong Jinglue was a good teacher in running the army, the inside and outside of the city still seemed a bit hectic and noisy.

Ximen Qing didn't care about those messy soldiers of the Western Army, and soon found Lu Zhishen, Yang Zhi, Guo Sheng and others who were generals under Zhong Shidao's command.

After the bandits in Erlong Mountain were reorganized by Zhong Shi Dao Zhao'an, Lu Zhishen and Yang Zhi led a total of [-] elite infantry under their command.Guo Sheng and Cao Zheng also served as lieutenants in this army.

The Western Army is mainly composed of mountain infantry, and the bandits in Erlong Mountain are also good at fighting in the mountains.When they put on the armor and weapons of the official army, they were also brightly armored and majestic, and looked no less inferior to other elite Western troops in the camp.

When Ximen Qing saw Lu Zhishen and the others, he saw that Yang Zhi had also changed into a brand new shirt and armor excitedly, returning to the appearance of a general in the army.

Behind Lu Zhishen and Yang Zhi, Guo Sheng and Cao Zheng were also dressed as adjutants and generals.

Only Lu Zhishen did not change his old attire and still looked like a huge monk.

Seeing Ximen Qing's visit, Lu Zhishen, Yang Zhi and others were both surprised and happy, and hurriedly welcomed Ximen Qing and others into their camp.

"Hahaha~ Brother Ximen, in order to vote for Xiaozhong, the Sa family left in a hurry that day and failed to say goodbye to you brother. These days, I was talking about you brother Ximen with all the brothers, and I came to Xiongzhou without thinking of you. ! Good brother, you make the Sa family miss you so much!"

Lu Zhishen took Ximen Qing's hand and walked into the tent, and smiled heroically at Ximen Qing.

Although the great monk is sometimes a fool, unable to distinguish good from bad, he is indeed a sincere, loyal and honest man.If I guide him well in the future, I might not be able to make Lu Zhishen achieve something.

Ximen Qing was thinking secretly, and also joked to Lu Zhishen: "Master, you are talking about my younger brother, but I heard that my younger brother has committed a crime of bullying men and women? Master clearly checked, my younger brother is really not the town of Guanxi!"

Killing Guanxi with three punches was originally a past event of Lu Zhishen's ignorant crime, but it was also a matter of Lu Zhishen's life.

When wandering in the rivers and lakes, Lu Zhishen must say that "Sajia is Lu Zhishen who killed the town of Guanxi with three punches", which shows that he is very proud of this matter.

Now that Ximen Qing brought up the old story again, it happened to scratch Lu Zhishen's itch, making Lu Zhishen laugh out loud.

"Senior officer, brother Lu Da and the rest of us are talking about you because the reason why you were able to be recruited by the court this time is all thanks to your guidance!

The high-ranking officials are very predictable, and they have already planned to go to the court to start a war with the Liao Kingdom, and let me wait for the training of soldiers and horses to wait for a comeback.Now everything is said by the officials, it really makes the Sa family admire!

If there were no high-ranking officials, we would all be in a daze. I'm afraid we would still be looting our homes in Erlong Mountain!

Daguanren is indeed the benefactor of my Erlongshan brothers, so all the brothers miss Daguanren. "

Yang Zhi followed Lu Zhishen and Ximen Qing, and said to Ximen Qing.

The "green-faced beast" Yang Zhi is all about making contributions in the Song army, so as to make Yang Linggong's family famous.

It's a pity that his luck was bad, and he cut off his way to join the army again and again.

This time, with Ximen Qing's guidance, he used Lu Zhishen's relationship with Zhong Shidao to continue his career in the army. Yang Zhi also thanked Ximen Qing from the bottom of his heart.

It was not only Yang Zhi who was grateful to Ximen Qing, Guo Sheng, Cao Zheng and others were able to change from a hidden bandit to an upright general of the imperial court, they were also very grateful to Ximen Qing.

"Small things, nothing to worry about, the two elder brothers don't want to kill the younger brother!"

Ximen Qing smiled humbly.

Everyone entered the camp, and after the guests and hosts were seated, Ximen Qing spoke to Lu Zhishen first and asked, "Since the master has returned to Mr. Xiaozhong Jinglue, why is he still like this?"

Lu Zhishen laughed and said: "Brother Ximen, the Sa family is used to this outfit, but they are reluctant to change it.

The Sa family has already reported to Xiao Zhong Jinglue, because because of the kindness of the master's shelter in Wutai Mountain, the Sa family has been ordained, so they will no longer return to vulgarity.

However, although Sajia is a monk, he is a monk Hua who can eat meat, drink wine, kill people, and set fire. He doesn't delay in fighting the enemy. "

Ximen Qing listened to Lu Zhishen's words, and he really loved and respected Lu Zhishen, so he favored and indulged him.

It's just that Lu Zhishen is a general of the imperial court, so his attire is a bit too maverick.Even if Zhong Shidao didn't care, did the other Western Army generals not criticize him?

You must know that this Western Army is not the Liangshan Army that was recruited by the imperial court in history.

After the Liangshan army was recruited, the imperial court used them to exterminate Fang La and other rebels. In fact, the Liangshan army was still regarded as a gang of thieves.

Therefore, the court is not surprised that there are monks, Toutuos, and Taoist priests among the Liangshan army.

They are all gangsters who can't stand on the stage, as they should be!

However, the Western Army is the most elite frontier defense army of the Great Song Dynasty. No matter how powerful it is compared to the Khitan and Xixia Army, at least the armor is bright and the military appearance is clean.

It is indeed eye-catching to have an outlier like Lu Zhishen appear among the [-] Western Army.

Although Zhong's prestige as a teacher is great, he is not a single-handed figure in the Western Army. Presumably he also bears some pressure because of this wayward Lu Zhishen?

Only from Lu Zhishen's monk attire, Ximen Qing could tell that Zhong Shidao took great care of him.

Don't look at Lu Zhishen's carelessness, he is also a man of wisdom.

Lu Zhishen doesn't say this kind of friendship as a teacher, but he must see it in his eyes and keep it in his heart.

It seems that when the way of cultivating teachers is still alive, "Hua Monk" Lu Zhishen will definitely follow him.

If you want to take this monk Mang for your own use, you have to wait patiently!

"Master, you are a casual person, and Mr. Zhong Jinglue is also a chic and open-minded elder. But I am still a little curious. Is there anyone in the army who is talking behind his back?"

Ximen Qing asked casually.

"I, Lu Da, is also an old man in the Western Army, so whoever knows the Sa family will tell me right and wrong?

There is really that ignorant thief talking about Sajia behind his back, and Sajia always thinks he is farting!
