Xianxia version of Water Margin

…

Chao Gai's slap on Song Jiang's face had no public motives and was entirely a personal grudge.

The three leaders who died this time, Zhang Heng, Li Li, and Kong Liang, were all Song Jiang's cronies. Even the leaders and minions who died were all Song Jiang's people.

——The people who came with Song Jiang to fight Gaotang Prefecture were all prepared to make contributions to Song Jiang and make a fortune. They were all people who supported Song Jiang. These people really had nothing to do with Chao Gai.

Let's put it this way, with Song Jiang's defeat and serious loss of troops and generals, no one was happier than Chao Gai - even Gao Lian might not be as happy as Chao Gai.

But Chao Gai still used this as an excuse to give Song Jiang a slap in the face to relieve his hatred.

After these few days of stimulation and reflection, Chao Gai realized that Song Jiang had been lying to him. Song Jiang never gave up recruiting troops. Everything Song Jiang did was to seize the position of leader of Naitou Mountain and then lead the army. The people of Naitoushan took the Zhaoan route.

To Chao Gai's dismay, he understood too late that Song Jiang once again had the strength to evade him. The key was that Wu Yong, whom he had taken as his arm, might fall to Song Jiang.

Just when Chao Gai was thinking about it on Naitou Mountain, if Song Jiang forced him to go to the palace again, should he wait for death or make a desperate move? Wu Yong, Dai Zong, Zhu Dian and Lei Heng came back and brought him Song Jiang to eat twice in a row. The great news of a great defeat.

Chao Gai immediately resurrected with full health, and immediately mobilized his army to go out to see the excitement of Songjiang, and to turn the tide and let the people of Naitoushan know who was the real leader of the village.

When I arrived in Gaotang Prefecture, I met the people from Naitoushan and learned that Song Jiang was defeated not twice, but three times, and this third defeat was even worse. Three of his leaders were even killed, and almost the entire army was destroyed. If it hadn't been for Zhang Heng He sacrificed himself and bit Gao Lian, causing Gao Lian to retreat. Song Jiang and the others might have to die here.

At that moment, Chao Gai knew he shouldn't laugh, but he couldn't help but curl up the corner of his mouth.

Now that he had taken advantage of the topic and slapped Song Jiang hard, Chao Gai was really happy as never before.

What made Chao Gai even more happy was that he used this energy to say what he didn't want to say and didn't dare to say out of consideration for the sake of his friends. That is, Song Jiang has no ability to lead troops at all. Whoever follows Song Jiang will be defeated. Will kill myself.

The key point is that after Chao Gai said these words, the leaders of Song Jiang's men who were at war with him because he beat Song Jiang and seemed to be angry with him as the leader of the village, all chose to remain silent.

Why?

Just because Chao Gai told the truth.

OK.

The first two defeats were because they didn't know Gao Lian knew magic and didn't understand how powerful Gao Lian's magic was.

What about the third defeat?

To prevent the enemy from stealing the camp, this is common sense that the coach must have, and it is something that the coach must arrange.

But Song Jiang didn't prepare anything, didn't arrange anything, and everyone almost died here.

A general without a plan will tire out thousands of troops; a commander without a plan will defeat thousands of troops. Song Jiang obviously didn't have the ability to lead an army, but he was good at playing and loved to play. Who can bear this? After all, there is only one life. If it is gone, there is really nothing. The key point is that it's not worth letting Song Jiang play to death like this.

So even Li Kui, who usually defended Song Jiang, remained silent this time.

It's not that Li Kui doesn't know how to cook a cold stove.

However, Li Kui's experiences in the past few days were too fresh in his memory. To be honest, if Zhang Shun hadn't fished him out of the water in time, he would have been like Kong Liang, soaked to the point where he didn't even look like a human being.

From the bottom of his heart, Li Kui really didn't want Song Jiang to lead the army again. Song Jiang's command of the army was really a disaster.

Others felt the same as Li Kui.

Seeing that no one stood up for him, Song Jiang was also filled with bitterness!

At this time, the afterglow of the setting sun slowly sank into the earth, and night came quietly like a black curtain.

Zhang Shun and Kong Ming sat alone next to a grain truck. They looked at Song Jiang silently, tears shining in the corners of their eyes like stars, which was the pain and helplessness deep in their hearts.

Song Jiang looked at the dejected minions around him. Their faces were all full of exhaustion and loss.

Before they came, they were so mighty and majestic.

Now it has been consumed by the cruel reality.

The dirt and scars on everyone's bodies reminded Song Jiang that this defeat was like a demon that destroyed everything. He lost everything and no one would believe in his ability to command troops anymore.

And Chao Gai's last hit also made his morale drop to the bottom.

At this time, Song Jiang met the eyes of a young gangster, whose eyes were full of helplessness.

Song Jiang did not dare to look at him and could only lower his head silently.

And the young man's eyes flashed with a hint of unbearability, but he was helpless.

The moonlight shone on Zhang Shun and Kong Ming, reflecting their lonely figures. They did not look at Song Jiang, their good brother. Their eyes were filled with longing for their loved ones and confusion about the future. Their former close relatives were now It can only be found from memory.

Think about how high-spirited Song Jiang was when he just left Naitou Mountain, like an eagle spreading its wings and soaring in the sky.

At that time, Song Jiang had more than 20 leaders, 7,000 regular soldiers, 5,000 auxiliary troops, and 12,000 troops, with embroidered flags, flying trumpets, and gongs in the corners...

But now, in just a few days, there are only more than a hundred defeated soldiers left.

This cruel reality not only destroyed Song Jiang's pride and self-confidence, but also changed the pattern of Song Jiang being strong and Chao weak.

After only three defeats, Song Jiang was like a lost dog. He was slapped in the face by Chao Gai in public. No one said a word for him, and he himself had no face to resist.

This makes people lament the impermanence of life.

The past glory and current abjection are like a nightmare that Song Jiang can't get rid of.

But Song Jiang knew that this was not a dream, but an extremely cruel reality.

After a long pause, Song Jiang knelt down to Chao Gai with a "pop" sound, and then cried and said: "Song Jiang is incompetent. He rashly brought his brothers to Gaotang Prefecture without finding out that Gao Lian knew the magic." He rescued Chai Daguan and even lost his troops and generals. My brother and other brothers were beaten and punished when they wanted. If Song Jiang frowned, he was not considered a hero!"

What Song Jiang never expected was that Chao Gai pursued him and said, "Are you Song Jiang just incompetent? You Song Jiang are also extremely selfish!"

Song Jiang was shocked. He really didn't expect that Chao Gai, who had never argued with him, would actually kill him this time!

Song Jiang hurriedly said: "Brother, what are you talking about? Although Song Jiang is here to save his friends, he is also here to strengthen Fengshan and make it famous in the world. How can he have any selfish motives?"

Chao Gai said coldly: "That's not what I said, but that Gao Lian is a mage, so I, Fengshan, can't be a mage? But because of your own selfish motives, you didn't bring Mr. Yiqing to attack Gaotang Prefecture at all. That’s why we, Fengshan, suffered such a huge defeat and all our brothers were killed or injured!”

As soon as Chao Gai said this, all the leaders under Song Jiang, including the more than a hundred minions, all looked at him with extremely complicated expressions!

Song Jiang panicked, and he quickly denied it: "As you can see, I had no intention of doing this. I just didn't expect that Gao Lian was a mage, so it caused a big disaster!"

Chao Gai said leisurely: "Whether you have such intention, you know, I know, everyone on my mountain knows it, how can you deny it?"

Seeing that Chao Gai was going to kill him, Song Jiang closed his eyes and refused to admit it: "I don't know what my brother said. Everything I did is for the future of my brother Fengshan. If there is even a half-word, I will If everyone rebels against their relatives, they will not die a good death."

Song Jiang had said such harsh words, and Chao Gai was immediately speechless.

Song Jiang slowly opened his eyes, and he said decisively: "Song Jiang has lost his master and humiliated the village. He will beat and kill his brother if he wants. Song Jiang has no complaints. But if Song Jiang is said to have selfish motives, Song Jiang will not accept it! I will not accept it!!!"

Seeing that Song Jiang was so thick-skinned, Chao Gai was silent for a long time, then looked at Song Jiang and said leisurely: "Just take care of yourself."

Having said this, Chao Gai ordered: "After dinner, have a good night's rest. Tomorrow I will show you how I fight!"

Speaking of this, Chao Gai also specifically told Liu Tang, Gu Jian, and Li Ying: "Do a good job in night defense, and don't teach Gao Lian and his fellows to rob the camp."

"Kill and kill!"

Song Jiang, if nothing else, is absolutely broad-minded. When Zhang Wenyuan slept with his woman Yan Poxi, he did not hate Zhang Wenyuan nor Yan Poxi, and he also planned to reunite with Yan Poxi and make Zhang Wenyuan and Yan Poxi reunite.

Let's put it this way, even if others point at Song Jiang's nose and scold him, Song Jiang won't take it to heart.

There's just one thing, don't block Song Jiang's path, especially Song Jiang's official path. Otherwise, no matter who you are, you have a life-or-death feud with him, and he is an enemy that he must eliminate quickly at all costs.

Chao Gai not only blocked Song Jiang's official road, but also wanted to completely destroy Song Jiang's official road.

That's not said.

Chao Gai has become Song Jiang's biggest enemy...

…

The next day.

Chao Gai raised his account and discussed with Wu Yong, Gongsun Sheng, Li Ying and others about destroying Gao Lian.

Gongsun Sheng said: "The king of heaven sends an order to form a formation to meet the enemy. Let's see how Gao Lian responds. The poor man has his own way to defeat his evil ways."

After Chao Gai heard what he said, he immediately sent an order and all the villages led their troops to stand up and went straight to the trench of Gaotang Prefecture, waving flags, beating drums, and shouting gongs.

Let’s talk about Gao Lian.

His injuries have healed.

After hearing the report from the boy that the bandits from Naitoushan were coming to challenge again, Gao Lian put on his armor, opened the city gate, lowered the drawbridge, and led three hundred magic soldiers and generals out of the city to meet the enemy.

The two armies gradually approached, facing each other with flags and drums, and each set up their formation.

In the two formations, colorful tunes and drums were beating, and colorful embroidered flags were waving.

When the gate of Chao Gai's formation opened, Chao Gai came to the front of the formation. On his left hand were Wu Yong, Liu Tang, and Li Ying; on his right hand were Gongsun Sheng, Gu Jian, and Zhang Shun.

——Song Jiang and others did not go out to fight on the grounds of recuperating from injuries. Only Zhang Shun wanted to avenge his brother and chose to go out to see if he could have a chance to kill Gao Lian.

Looking at the Song Army, the golden drums were beating together, and the gate flags were spread out. Twenty or thirty officers surrounded Gao Lian and came out in front of the formation and immediately stood under the gate flags.

Gao Lian came to the front of the formation, shouted loudly and cursed: "The grass thieves from Naitou Mountain, since they are determined to fight, they must decide the winner and the loser, and those who leave are not heroes!"

Can Chao Gai be afraid of this? He directly ordered the general and said: "My dear brother, go and kill this thief for me!"

After hearing this, he picked up his mountain-cutting ax and leapt out of the formation until he reached Gaixin.

When Gao Lian saw it, he asked, "Who will go with me to capture this thief?"

A general named Xue Yuanhui was transferred from the commanding officer's team. He used two swords and two swords, rode a bad horse, flew out of Gaixin, and came to fight Guiying.

The two fought in front of the formation for more than ten times, and then Xue Yuanhui was knocked off his horse.

Both armies shouted in unison.

When Gao Lian saw him on his horse, he was furious. He pulled out the Tai'a sword from his back and muttered something in his mouth, shouting: "Sick!"

I saw a black air billowing up from Gao Lian's team. The black air dispersed into the air, flying sand and rocks, shaking the earth and the sky, and blowing strange winds, sweeping towards the Naitoushan position.

When Gongsun Sheng saw this, he not only quickly used the method of returning wind and returning fire to break the formation, he also muttered words in his mouth, pinched the formula with his left hand, pointed the sword with his right hand, and shouted: "Quick!"

Then, the strange wind stopped looking at the military formation at Naitou Mountain, and instead looked at Gao Lian's divine army.

Seeing that the wind had returned, Gao Lian hurriedly went to the saddle, took off the bronze medal, and struck with his sword.

After knocking three times, I saw a cloud of yellow sand rolling up from the divine army, covering the sky and the earth, and the sun was dull. Where the shouts started, a swarm of poisonous insects rolled out of the yellow sand.

When Gongsun Sheng saw it, he pulled out the ancient Songwen sword on his horse, pointed it at the enemy, and muttered something in his mouth, shouting: "Quiet!"

I saw a golden light shooting out, and those poisonous insects all fell into the yellow sand in front of the formation, and the yellow sand could not be dispersed.

Seeing how powerful Gongsun Sheng was, Gao Lian used his trump card. He pointed his command flag at the three hundred magic soldiers.

When the three hundred magic soldiers saw the order flag, they took off the iron gourds on their backs.

This gourd contains sulfur, flame, saltpeter, and pyrotechnic materials. Each of the three hundred magic soldiers holds a hook-edged iron broom and has a reed whistle in his mouth.

Gao Lian started practicing magic, but he saw black air rising into the sky, strong winds, flying sand and rocks, and sowing dust.

The three hundred magic soldiers each took fire and lit it on the mouth of the gourd. A reed whistle sounded in unison. In the middle of the black air, flames flew randomly, and the top and bottom were red. In an instant, the overwhelming fire brought flying sand and rocks towards Naitou Mountain. The army swept in.

When Gongsun Sheng saw it, his expression became peaceful. He bit his finger and drew a talisman in the air, and said to Chao Gai: "King of Heaven, order the troops to retreat immediately."

Chao Gai, who was about to kill everyone and show Song Jiang and others how he could command the troops, was really unwilling to withdraw his troops.

But since Gongsun Sheng said this, it means that Gongsun Sheng cannot break Gao Lian's evil spell.

With deep reluctance, Chao Gai gritted his teeth and ordered: "Withdraw!"

When Naitou Mountain's army withdrew, Gongsun Sheng's blood talisman was also finished. Then he muttered something in his mouth, kneaded the talisman with his left hand, pointed the sword with his right hand, and shouted: "Quick!"

Then, a huge tornado appeared out of thin air!

After the tornado appeared, the fire, flying sand and rocks were all involved in the tornado, causing the tornado to immediately turn into a sky-reaching fire dragon.

Gongsun Sheng pointed his sword, and the tornado that looked like a fire dragon rolled towards the Song army.

Seeing this, Gao Lian also waved the Tai'a sword in his hand to stop the fire tornado. Then he pointed the tip of the sword, and the fire tornado rolled towards Gongsun Sheng.

Seeing this, Gongsun Sheng pushed his sword forward, and then pushed the fire tornado back.

Next, the fire tornado was seen walking back and forth on the battlefield. Gongsun Sheng and Gao Lian seemed to be unable to do anything to the other.

Finally, when Gongsun Sheng and Gao Lian's spiritual power was almost exhausted, the two of them raised their swords in unison. Immediately, the fire tornado dispersed, and the flying sand and rocks turned into fireballs and fell in a mess.

Since the Song army did not disperse, many people were killed and injured by those bolides.

But in general, Gongsun Sheng and Gao Lian actually fought to a draw.

Gongsun Sheng returned to Chao Gai's central army tent. Chao Gai asked, "How is this Gao Lian?"

Gongsun Sheng replied: "The magic I have learned is the same as his. I can't do anything to him, and he can't do anything to me."

When Chao Gai heard this, he frowned and said, "What should we do?"

Gongsun Sheng said: "For the current plan, either I go back to Erxian Mountain and ask my master to find a way, or the King of Heaven sends someone to Shuibo Liang Mountain to ask the Great Sage of Heaven to come."

Chao Gai was startled: "Please order Immortal Master, for my brother's understanding, please ask Brother Jiang Yan, will it work?"

Gongsun Sheng explained: "What the King of Heaven does not know is that the Great Sage of Heaven is both good at the Five Thunder Tiangang Zhengfa and the Immortal Dharma. If we invite him to come, we will surely destroy this thief."

Then, Gongsun Sheng said that when they were in Daming Mansion, Jiang Hongfei took some time out of his busy schedule to chat with Gongsun Sheng about magic. Gongsun Sheng was shocked by Jiang Hongfei's knowledge of magic. Jiang Hongfei also promised that when he doesn't When you are busy, you can teach Gongsun Sheng the Five Thunder Tiangang Zhengfa...
