A knife in love

Chapter 2564
When Xu Yingyang said this, he paused for a while, glanced at Li Qiufeng, and then continued: "It's just that Shi Gandang never expected that with the help of this group of people, Baoyang Village would come back in just one year. In the green forest, he gained a great reputation and became one of the best gangsters outside the customs. His reputation was even greater than in the past. At the beginning, Shi Gandang gave that group 1 taels of silver every year according to the agreement, but after the fourth year, he felt that Feeling unwilling, I thought to myself that I had given away 4 taels of silver back and forth, and this kind of favor was almost worth it. Every tael of silver was snatched by myself and my minions by licking blood, how could I give it to others for nothing? ?Later, Shi Gandang knew that those people were subordinates of the owner of the Wangjiazhuang Village in Dongliao County, and he became even more contemptuous. The owner of Baoyang Village, a hero of the green forest, why should he be afraid of a mere local rich man in Wangjiazhuang? From then on, he ignored the people sent by Wangjiazhuang, and even wanted to lead people to loot Wangjiazhuang and kill the owner and others. Not only can you make a fortune, but you will no longer have to give the vain money to the owner of the Wang Zhuang."

When Xu Yingyang said this, he glanced at Li Qiufeng, and then continued: "It's just that Shi Gandang hadn't had time to make a move. Suddenly, more than a dozen green forest villages joined forces to attack Baoyang Village. Although Baoyang Village was no longer large at that time, Xiao, there are seven or eight hundred minions in the village, but the total of more than a dozen green forest cottages totals [-] to [-] minions. In addition, there are many people in the world with high martial arts skills secretly helping each other, so Baoyang Although the stronghold resisted desperately, it was still unable to resist in the end, and the enemy broke through the stronghold. Shi Gandang broke through the siege desperately, and escaped for more than three hundred miles. Only a dozen minions were left to follow him, and not only There were thieves in the green forest, and the police sent by the government. At this time, Shi Gandang suddenly realized that he had become the same as five years ago, at the end of the road, and his life was always in danger.

"Seeing that Shi Gandang and his group had nowhere to escape, and were about to die at the hands of the green forest thieves and government police who were chasing after him, the group who had rescued him five years ago suddenly appeared in front of him again. Before that, Shi Gandang was arrested When more than a dozen green forest villages were suddenly besieged, he was puzzled, thinking that he had never had a problem with these green forest villages, why they would suddenly join forces to attack Baoyang village. It was not until this group of people appeared in front of him that Shi Gandang suddenly I understand everything. I think it's because I broke my promise, stopped obeying this group of people, and planned not to pay tribute to the Wang Family Village any more. I offended this group of people and ended up like this. Shi Gandang is very bachelor, what did he do to escape his life? Everything was done. He immediately knelt down, cut his chest with a knife and swore to the sky that he would never turn his back on Wangjiazhuang again, and he would also increase the annual tribute to Wangjiazhuang to 2 taels of silver.

"After the group heard what Shi Gandang had said, they didn't embarrass him any more. They just warned him that if he didn't keep his promise, they would cut him into pieces and kill his whole family. Soon after, the green forest thieves who chased Shi Gandang and The government arresters retreated one after another, and Shi Gandang returned to Baoyang Village. The group gave Shi Gandang a lot of gold and silver to help him recruit soldiers and horses, and restore his prestige. Half a year later, Shi Gandang gathered another five or six hundred minions. The banner of Baoyang Village was erected again. In less than two years, Baoyang Village not only regained its old scale, but also became more powerful than before. However, Shi Gandang no longer dared to show any disrespect to Wangjiazhuang. Ten thousand taels of silver were obediently sent to Wangjiazhuang.

"However, the 2 taels of silver are not in vain. Wangjiazhuang often sends people to Baoyang Village to instruct Shi Gandang to attack other cottages, or rob and kill rich and powerful families. The annual income is no less than 8 to [-] taels of silver. And with the silver Afterwards, Shi Gandang continued to recruit troops, Baoyang Village became more and more prosperous, and all the nearby green forest villages surrendered. It took only three years for Baoyang Village to become the largest village in the green forest outside the pass. If not for the rise of Heifeng Village, Baoyang Village It has long dominated the green forest outside the pass.

"This time Wangjiazhuang tricked the green forest thieves from outside the customs to meet in Wangjiazhuang, and Shi Gandang also participated in it. However, although he surrendered to Wangjiazhuang, he had never met the owner of Wangjiazhuang. He had always been contacted by a man named Liu Shengliang. After he arrived at Wangjiazhuang, Liu Shengliang confessed to him. This time all the thieves from the green forest outside the pass were summoned to Wangjiazhuang, and they wanted to use these thieves to do a big thing. After this big thing is done, Shi Gandang will not only The leader of the green forests outside the pass will also be the leader of the world's green forests. Shi Gandang will get rich if he wants to get rich, and become an official if he wants to be an official. Fearing, hearing Liu Shengliang's promise, he was overjoyed, and agreed wholeheartedly.

"This time, Shi Gandang came to Dongliao County under Liu Shengliang's order. It can be said that he came out in full force, and brought all the capable soldiers from Baoyang Village to Wangjiazhuang. There were more than 270 people in total. When they arrived at Wangjiazhuang Afterwards, Liu Shengliang called the minions of Baoyang Village twice, and took away a total of 93 people. Last night, Baoyang Village fought with the Baishan faction, and 150 people died. On the fourth watch, Liu Shengliang asked Shi Gandang again He selected 20 people, saying that he was going to take them out of the village to do a very important matter. So in the end Shi Gandang had only a hundred people left around him. He conspired with Liu Shengliang to kill Wu, the head of the Baishan School. All the crimes were blamed on Jinyulou, and he sent one of his hall masters to handle the matter. But later, the cronies he sent to monitor came back to report, saying that Jinyulou provoked the green forest thieves to turn against the water and beat up the minions in Baoyang Village. There were countless casualties. Shi Gandang was shocked and hurried to check. Indeed, as the confidant said, most of the hundred and ten Baoyang village minions were killed, and the remaining more than 20 minions were captured. Shi Gandang knew that he had suffered a crushing defeat. If he was caught by Jin Yulou, he would have to cut himself alive. So he ignored the [-] or so minions and escaped from Wangjiazhuang with a dozen of his cronies, wanting to ask Liu Shengliang for help."

When Xu Yingyang said this, he paused for a while, and then continued: "This Shi Gandang is still called No. 1 in the green forest outside the Guan, but he is actually a coward. Brother Beisi didn't make any effort, so he poured beans into the bamboo tube Generally, he confessed all the things. Xu thought that this person had been committing crimes and killing countless people outside the pass all these years. It was an unforgivable crime. If he was left alive, not only would it be useless, but he would have to spend all his time looking after this old guy. Right now we have to deal with the Fusang army with all our strength, how can we spare this old thief? We might as well cut him off, and then use his head to scare the bandits in the green forest. Dealing with these bastards, let them see Shi Gandang's head, is better than giving It’s easier for them to reason. That’s why Xu ordered Old Thief Shi to be beheaded, cut off his head, and brought him into Wangjiazhuang.”
