That night, Lu Qian had a private banquet for Deng Yuanjue, and the two of them had a very fast meal, and before the first watch, Monk Baoguang got up to say goodbye. Lu Qian then went to the Juyi Hall, and after a while, all the leaders, except for Wang Dingliu, who opened a store in the state capital, and Zhu Fu, who was active in Yuncheng County, were all present.

Everyone sat down, and when Lu Qian said that Monk Baoguang was coming, the entire Juyi Hall was in an uproar.

"Forge an alliance!" Deng Yuanjue's purpose in coming to Liangshan was to form an alliance with Liangshan on behalf of the Jiangnan La. This Manichaean plan is indeed very big. Otherwise, just walk around in the green forest, where you need to form an alliance with Qilu?

Thinking of Deng Yuanjue's words, some leaders have already realized in their hearts that Manichaeism is going to do great things.

"Manichaeism was introduced to Middle Earth for 400 years, and it was only prevalent in the western regions of Mobei at the beginning, and it flowed into Lianghuai during the great calendar of the Tang Dynasty, and was known to the people of Jiangnan. By the time Wuzong destroyed the Buddha, Manichaeism was also hit hard, and turned into a secret door and went underground. By this time, it had accumulated Buddhism and Taoism, gathering farmers, students, officials, soldiers, green forest heroes, river and ocean thieves, local heroes, etc., secret associations. The believers are white-clothed and black-hatted, and they have always been feared by the Jiangnan government. ”

In what Lu Qian said, a lot of the content is the memory of Lu Qian's original owner, the palace marshal's mansion can receive information from all over the country, and the Jiangnan government's distress about the growing popularity of Manichaeism has long been sent to the capital, and Lu Qian, as the marquis of the palace marshal mansion, can also contact some unimportant news. Although these news are not valued by Gao Yu, Lu Qian's status is low, and what he can't see is still invisible.

"Today's emperor is not a Ming monarch, in the past ten years, the big Suohuashi has stirred up a miasma in the officialdom of Jiangnan, and the people of Li have suffered even more, I don't know how many people have joined his religion, so that the momentum of Manichaeism is growing day by day. If today's Zhao Tianzi is still a remnant, sooner or later there will be a big chaos in the Jiangnan territory. ”

The meaning of Lu Qian's words was very clear, and the point was that Fang La would rebel sooner or later.

Lu Zhishen's eyes widened, "In this way, this Fang La is so bold and calculates on my Liangshan's head." Deng Yuanjue's thief said that he came to form an alliance, and he was afraid that it was true that he used my Liangshan heroes as his Manichaean luxury cards. ”

"What Senior Brother said is extremely true." Lin Chong first praised Lu Zhishen, and then saluted Lu Qian and said: "Jiangnan and my Liangshan are located in the north and south, far apart, and it is too vague to say that they are even in alliance. When the official army conscripted my cottage, could it be that Fang La's troops could still send troops to help? Obviously, I don't agree with it.

It's really a verbal alliance, and it's too light. If Deng Yuanjue can promise to say that a few masters like him will help him, this amount will still weigh two points, and the sincerity can also be seen in two points. But at the beginning of Manichaeism, Liang Shan was underestimated, and only regarded Liang Shan as a blocking pawn, how could Deng Yuanjue say such things.

"Brother, the younger brother also thinks it's impossible." Under the seat, Xue Yong got up next to Lin Chong and said.

"When the younger brother wandered the rivers and lakes before, the land south of the Yangtze River was also entrenched. The local people are indeed suffering from the difficulties of the flower and stone gang, and the momentum of Manichaeism is really not small, and the south of the Yangtze River is very famous. But the younger brother has never heard of someone from the rivers and lakes mentioning that the Manichaean sect is preparing to rebel? Xu is a confidential matter, and it will not be known to outsiders, but it can also be seen that his armor is insufficient. "If the armor is sufficient, there will always be some rumors left on the rivers and lakes." His armor is not ready, Ding Zhuang is not strong, how can he achieve great things? There are many heroes in the Manichaean religion, and there are countless sect members, who are not afraid of death, but their methods are very strong, how can they really fight on the march?

The Jiangnan official army was weak, whether it was the forbidden army or the local soldiers, all of them were vulnerable. If Manichaeism suddenly attacked, it may be able to be a hero for a while and sweep the three or five state capitals. But as long as the emperor in Tokyo City transfers officials and troops from other places, how can a rabble of others resist low? "At this time, the soldiers and horses of Liangshan are being 'regularized', and the leaders of the cadres have learned the power of regular combat, and they have also heard too much about the Western Army boasted by Lu Zhishen. What's more, the shock of Xiao Li Guanghuarong to the leader of the cottage is right in front of him, but it has not faded yet, Huarong's existence reflects the authenticity of Lu Zhishen's words, and Emperor Zhao still has a lot of soldiers who can fight and kill. The Western Army alone had two or three hundred thousand men.

These people know how powerful the real elite of the official army is when they fight against the grass and green forest methods, and only then do they know how small the true value of the rabble of the rivers and lakes is. Unexpectedly, Fang La looked down on Fang La a lot.

"I still have these 800 miles of water in Liangshan to rely on, so what is the danger in the south of the Yangtze River? At that time, when the elite of the official army attacked, it would be boiling water and snow, and it could be destroyed with one blow. If I, Liangshan, form an alliance with it, and are begged for reinforcements by that party when it is in crisis, won't I sit on wax? ”

This Xue Yong thought that Manichaeism was about to rebel immediately, so it was not allowed. But the words are well-organized and brilliant. When the words fell, many leaders said yes. reminded Lu Qian of a 'fact', after many leaders of this cottage heard his words, many people mistakenly thought that Fang La was going to rebel in the near future. And Lu Qian carefully recalled the conversation between Shicai and Deng Yuanjue, who really did not say when he would raise an army against the Song Dynasty, but faintly seemed to be saying that he would rebel soon. Just because Lu Qian 'knew' that Fang La would eventually rebel after a few years, he subconsciously ignored this. Because at that time, Liangshan and Fang La were really good allies who could echo the north and south.

And there was a few years in between, but it was 'eaten' by Lu Qian. In this way, the current Liangshan, with the current strength of Liangshan, and Fang La, who is about to rebel 'soon', are indeed a bit out of line, and it is difficult to echo Fang La.

Therefore, in the eyes of Lu Zhishen and Lin Chong, it was Fang La who wanted Liangshan to be a shield and a target to attract Zhao Song's attention, so naturally he did not approve of it. Xue Yong also thinks so, but he speaks better.

Most of the leaders in the Juyi Hall disagreed, which meant that they were still a little self-aware and knew that Liangshan's strength was too weak now. Twenty cottage leaders, except for Li Kui, who shut up and was a puppet, shouted and ran to Tokyo, the others still had some brains.

Lu Qian's mind flipped and he made a decision. This alliance will be made first, and then wait for a few more years, and it will not be bad to form an alliance with Liangshan when its strength is great. Now even if you form an alliance, it's useless.

And he had already thought about how he would say it to Deng Yuanjue the next time he talked about it. According to Deng Yuanjue's words, he seems to be able to recognize that Manichaeism will soon raise troops......

This one alone is enough to make Deng Yuanjue speechless.

Sure enough, when Lu Qian and Deng Yuanjue talked about this matter again the next afternoon, when he asked if the Manichaeism would raise troops today, Deng Yuanjue was speechless.

At this point, there is no need to talk about the alliance.

But the two families also took over the friendship and got involved. For example, Deng Yuanjue asked Lu Qian to send 100 good horses to the south within this year, and the deposit should be given in a few days, so that Liangshan would not suffer a loss. Lu Qian also asked the Manichaeism to include a group of shipwrights and shipwrights for him in the south of the Yangtze River, as well as the timber for shipbuilding, etc., which would also not make the Manichaeism suffer. This is naturally a trivial matter in Deng Yuanjue's opinion, and a hundred good horses are not too difficult in Lu Qian's opinion. Both sides agreed, and it was very refreshing.

Therefore, Lu Qian then agreed to let Deng Yuanjue stay on the mountain, wait for the next day to start a war with the official army, and let him have a long experience. He wasn't afraid that Fang La would wake up. The organization method of Manichaeism is a secret society, and the land south of the Yangtze River is densely populated, Fang La knows the military formation, and he can't find a suitable place to practice on a large scale, let alone train the head of the sect.

Liangshan in the original book has many official figures; And Fang La's gang are all from the grassy rivers and lakes, which can be regarded as a complete grassroots.

There is a forbidden army leader like Lin Chong in Liangshan, a professional; There are fierce generals like Lu Zhishen who have fought with the Western Xia army; There is also fish and meat that Lu Qian spares no effort to eat, and there is no shortage of money and food, so that Liang Shanjun can be super trained in a winter. What does Fang La have?

The overall volume of Manichaeism is definitely far greater than that of Liangshan today, but it is more per capita, that is, the gap between China and the developed countries in later generations. All this in Liangshan, even if Fang La can see it and know it, he can't learn it.

Deng Yuanjue also sent an entourage to the south to report the news to Fang La as soon as possible.
