Yang Tai, the head of the soldiers and horses on the Jingnan Road, had a fluttering look in his eyes at this time, and he stared at Dagushan who was sent by Ji Sansi to report to him uncertainly, all kinds of thoughts flashed through his heart, and his expression was sometimes hideous and terrifying, and sometimes he was uneasy. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Since he opened up the relationship up and down, after serving as the military supervisor of the Jingnan Road, he sold his military salary, grain and grass, and bribed the officials of the central government with a lot of money, and then he was greedy for ink and bribed again...... The status in the army is naturally getting higher and higher, and now he has successfully mastered the military power of Jingnan Road, and now the middle and lower generals of the military prisons in the states under his rule must respect him, in addition to him, he is also in cahoots with Xue Kewen of the Jingnan Road Criminal Prison Division, the two of them are in the western Beijing Army, the political circles are bullying and concealing, covering the sky with one hand, and most of the local state officials are also wise and self-protective, making them even more unscrupulous.

However, unlike Xue Kewen, Yang Tai, the head of soldiers and horses, was also not a non-resident position, and he also had to accumulate meritorious service and transfer to the Great Song Dynasty border area Jingluo Mansion, or serve in the three yazhong of the forbidden army in the Beijing Division. At this juncture, Xiao Tang, who had recently become prosperous in the Beijing Division, was sent to Dengzhou by the official family as a pacification envoy, and the pacification envoy was not much different from the rank of the chief manager of soldiers and horses, but it happened to be a special envoy of the imperial court who was on Yang Tai's head to inspect his dereliction of duty.

As for Xiao Tang...... Yang Tai knew that he had a very good reputation, and it was difficult to cover up such major events as whether the military affairs in Zhuzhou were wasted or not, and whether the military salaries, grain and grass were made up, so whether Xiao Tang wanted to have a good reputation, reported himself for the felony of greedy ink and self-theft, or took the opportunity to take over the military power of Jingnan Road in addition to his stumbling block, he had a reason to do so. As soon as Xiao Tang arrived in Dengzhou, Yang Tai tried his best to meet Xiao Tang like a filial son and grandson, firstly to explore Xiao Tang's tone, and secondly, to take this opportunity to show weakness, and at the same time to send him a signal that after you come, you will become big and make a fortune together.

At first, Xiao Tang smiled at the benefits of Yang Tai's filial piety, and when he just put his mind at ease, several thieves in Bear's Ears Mountain and Funiu Mountain, who had been against him for a long time in Dengzhou, came out to make trouble at this time. And whether Xiao Tang should come to lead the army to reinforce him, capture Pan Zhong, the leader of Bears Ears Mountain in one fell swoop, and take the opportunity of exchanging prisoners of war to interview Xi Sheng, who has a high prestige in the green forest of Dengzhou, which made Yang Tai's heart suddenly rise again.

The blood feud between Yang Tai and Xi Sheng has to be talked about when Xi Sheng was the regimental training envoy in Dengzhou. At that time, the Tiger Teng Hu and the Tiger Teng Hu were brave and brave, and they could be called the number one people in the green forest thieves in Dengzhou.

In a battle to encircle and suppress the Teng brothers, Yang Tai personally led his army to a village at the foot of Funiu Mountain. There are two or three hundred villagers in that remote and remote village, and some of them are young and strong who are not tolerant of the oppression of bullies and corrupt officials, so they voted for the Teng brothers to be the strongmen of the green forest.

Yang Tai didn't have the patience to do anything to appease and persuade the villagers in the village, he thought to himself, this is doing the people, but it has become the eyes of the strongmen in Funiu Mountain, it is better to get rid of them together, so as to deter the thieves in Funiu Mountain. But this has to be done, no matter whether it has anything to do with the strongman of Funiu Mountain or not, Yang Tai is afraid that the news will leak out, so he simply does not stop doing it, he instructs his soldiers to kill the whole village up and down!

In such a season, many black-hearted generals often do it, so not only does it have more credit, but also puts all the blame on the green forest bandits, why not do it for Yang Tai? But his unconscionable behavior angered Xi Sheng, who was already very angry under his command, and Xi Sheng angrily reprimanded Yang Tai, saying that he would report to the military department for such an ugly act of killing good people, and severely punish Yang Tai's atrocities!

Even if Yang Tai can get through the relationship up and down to prevaricate such a serious crime, but there is such a stain on his resume, I am afraid that it will be difficult to be promoted in the future. Yang Tai was ruthless in his heart, so he framed Xi Sheng and the thief to collude, killing the lives of his whole family, Xi Sheng, Liu Yuan, Pan Zhong three killed the military division and fled all the way to Funiu Mountain, the Teng brothers respected Xi Sheng as a good man, so they supported him to gather in Bears Ears Mountain, which is what happened today.

"It's just a matter of being greedy for military salaries, straight mother thief, military secretary of the Great Song Dynasty, which one is not greedy? But Xiao Tang saw Xi Sheng's ...... He is bound to poke out all my ugly things, as long as Xiao Tang has the heart to deal with me, won't I be a dead end? Yang Tai gritted his teeth and thought hatefully in his heart, his cruel and cold eyes looked at the henchmen sent by Ji Sansi again, and his mind came alive again.

Dagushan Ji Sansi and Ni Xuan, two green forest strongmen, were originally a group of thieves who Yang Tai secretly fornicated in order to raise bandits for self-respect. Yang Tai is no matter how greedy he is in the army, and his tentacles can't reach out to the Cao Si Finance Division on Jingnan Road, but he can reveal to Ji Sansi, Ni Xun and others from time to time where the patrol department is lax, and where there are often rich caravans passing by but no official troops are stationed...... When Ji Sansi leads the bandits to kill people and steal goods, he can also get a piece of the pie.

"In the past, they were asked to do it for me, but they didn't have a chance except Xi Sheng...... Although it is very dangerous to delay that Xiao Tang in front of me, if I can get rid of them together, I can rest easy? Thinking of this, Yang Tai's eyes flashed with a fierce light, he raised his head and shouted to the minion in a deep voice: "Just ask your king to do it, but don't reveal my name!" ”

"Yes! The little one got it! The minion responded, and sneaked out of the Yangtai Courtyard, and rode out of the city and went straight to Dagu Mountain.

The day of Xiao Tang and Xi Sheng's talks has arrived, when Xiao Tang drove into the foothills of Bears Ears Mountain, he saw the mountains in the distance all around, the mountains are facing the main peak of Bears Ears, showing the trend of worshipping ten thousand mountains, seeing the large and small green dragon walls in the near distance and spreading their wings around to fly, showing the strength of the five dragons holding the saint, it can be said that it is the Bear Mountain Wei Wei, Guan Luo swinging.

There are countless mountains and mountains between thousands of ravines in the mountains, which are not only beautiful, but also dangerous. At this time, the officers and troops under Xiao Tang's command were under the command of Dadao Guan Sheng and other generals, all of them were waiting at the corner of the mountain, although Xiao Tang and Xi Sheng had opinions on each other, but Xiao Tang's officers were worried that the thieves were despicable, for fear that the meeting of the bandits would be false, and waiting for the opportunity to be unfavorable to Xiao Tang, and the strongman leaders under Xi Sheng were also on guard against the cunning of the officers and soldiers, and asked their brothers to meet, just to wipe out the leaders of Bears Ears Mountain.

The place where Xiao Tang and Xi Sheng made an appointment was an empty valley in the foothills, and a large number of ambushes could not be arranged around it, which could be described as the most suitable negotiation occasion. And although Xiao Tang came to talk, the four people included Xiao Li Guanghuarong, Buyi Jianqing, Xiao Jiasui, prodigal son Yanqing, and red-faced tiger Yuan Lang. All of them are either strong in martial arts, or they are shrewd.

The mountainous terrain of Bears Ears Mountain has long been explained to Xiao Tang's henchmen by the ministry of the Dengzhou Military Division. At this time, the brigades of Bear's Ears Mountain and Funiu Mountain and the officers, soldiers and horses at the foot of the mountain faced each other across the valley, and they were all some distance away from the place where Xiao Tang and Xisheng met. Although the forest is deep and dense, the official army and the strongmen of the two mountains have already controlled the main roads of the valley in advance, for fear that there will be assassins waiting for an opportunity to sneak into the valley and secretly release cold arrows.

But at this time, in the depths of the dense forest, Ji Sansi and Ni Yan led two hundred minions to cut down thorns, sneaking quietly in the forest, the main vein of Bears Ears Mountain and the big lonely mountain and the small lonely mountain are adjacent to each other, Ji Sansi knows where to climb, where to sneak to the empty valley at the foot of Bears Ears Mountain, they hide their bodies through trees and weeds, and the situation in the valley is even more unobstructed. There are not many hidden places in the valley, and at that time, two hundred bows will be fired at Xiao Tang and Xi Sheng in unison, how can they be killed?

Xiao Tang crossed the mountain road under the escort of Xiao Jiasui, Hua Rong, Yan Qing, and Yuan Lang, and when they came to the valley not long after, they saw Xi Sheng and Teng Huan, Teng Ji, and Liu Yuan, the three strongman leaders, walking slowly from a distance.

Xiao Tang stood up and smiled at Xi Sheng: "Leader Xi has good skills, I Xiao Tang admires it tightly!" ”

Xi Sheng was slightly stunned, he clenched his fists and saluted: "Xiao Renxia is polite, you and I didn't win the battle that day." ”

Xiao Tang laughed loudly: "Leader Xi is proficient in formations and knows the subtleties. Even many of the generals of the forbidden army who have been fighting for a long time are not as good as you, but it's a pity...... Alas! ”

Originally, as soon as the two sides met, Xiao Tang deliberately praised Xi Sheng, and when the atmosphere just eased up a little, Xi Sheng listened to Xiao Tang's words again, and he sneered and said: "Xiao Renxia is about to get to the point so soon?" ”

Xiao Tang said indifferently: "When the heroes meet, they should talk about their friendship first, and Brother Xi please sit down."

Xi Sheng's face was cold, and he sat on the ground. Xiao Tang looked at Xi Sheng fixedly and said, "Why don't you take Wu Hook and collect Guanshan Fifty Prefectures." Please go to Lingyan Pavilion temporarily, if you are a scholar and a marquis. Brother Xi studied the book of war, I don't know what ambitions he has? ”

Xi Sheng was unmoved, he said hesitantly: "Nobles like Xiao Renxia and the powerful in the DPRK can certainly get what they want, but like people like us who are destined to be thieves, Xiao Renxia doesn't have to use words to win people's hearts, right?" ”

Without waiting for Xiao Tang to say anything more, Xi Sheng said with blazing eyes: "What's more, Xiao Renxia is here, isn't it just to persuade me to wait?" ”

Xiao Tang smiled slightly, and said with a pun: "It can be said that it can be said that it is not." ”

Xi Sheng was stunned, and then he looked up and laughed: "Hahahaha!" Didn't Xiao Renxia want to warn me to wait a while, Hugh wants to stir up trouble when you are the pacification envoy on Jingnan Road? If this is the case, the officials and generals of the Great Song Dynasty are really all raccoon dogs! ”

Xiao Tang was puzzled: "Why did Brother Xi say that? ”

Xi Sheng snorted heavily and said: "Those who are officials and generals just want to be promoted and make a fortune, and they keep saying that they can eat the country and repay the country, but in fact, they are only for political achievements, power and wealth, and they can do anything they do!" That's it, I Xi Shengcai disdain to be in the company of scum such as Er! ”

Xiao Tang's red-faced tiger Yuan Lang couldn't help but take a step, and he said, "Leader Xi, Xiao Renxia is not the kind of person you said......

Xi Sheng's downhill tiger Teng Jian saw that Yuan Lang was a little familiar, and when he came out to speak, he also stepped forward and asked, "You are ...... Isn't it the red-faced tiger Yuan Lang of Shiliang Mountain!? How can a man who is extravagant also make a dog for the government!? ”
