Water Margin Survival

Being able to see the light of day again this time, to Qiao Lie who was imprisoned by Tian Hu, it seemed like a lifetime away.

In fact, when it comes to his imprisonment this time, it was not without signs beforehand.When Tian Hu convened a group of ministers to discuss national policy in Liaozhou, Qiao Lie's waking up alone was the source of his future tragedy.Now looking back at his suggestion that day, if Tian Hu can resolutely adopt his strategy and control the natural danger of the Yellow River first, the situation in Hedong will not collapse to this point.

It's a pity that Tian Hu is a rough guy who doesn't know how to reflect on himself. Not only did he blame his generals because of the failure of the war, but even he, a good minister who once made feasible suggestions, was intentionally alienated by Tian Hu.So much so that the dignified national teacher couldn't even see Tian Hu's face when he was waiting.

Qiao Lie is not a person who can't control his mouth. He knows that he has repeated the mistakes of Yuan Shao and Tian Feng. He can still hold back his anger for all kinds of evil policies promulgated by Jin State on weekdays. The key is that in the end, there is no gambling. Tian Hu had reached the point where he couldn't afford to lose, and gradually became frantic. He no longer cared about the little friendship he had left, and began to pervert in Hedong, causing harm to the people to the point of open fire.

Qiao Lie couldn't hold back, and forcibly stopped Tian Hu's driver, but before he could speak clearly, Tian Hu sent him directly to prison.From the rebellion of the Great Song Dynasty to being rejected by his lord, and becoming a double felon of the court and the Jin State, Qiao Lie felt that the first half of his life was synonymous with being funny.

He got spring-like warmth from Tian Hu again when he thought he was going to be taken to the execution ground.After eating and washing up, he wrote a letter and asked someone to send it to his old friend Sun An who was far away in Jingdong, as a family member.

But a dramatic scene happened at this moment, there was no need for someone to take the suicide note, he just sent it himself.Because Tian Hu couldn't find anyone who could speak in front of Wang Lun, he was an unbelievable figure in the end, and recommended him to Tian Hu who was in prison.

Although Tian Hu's smile was full of sincerity, Qiao Lie was already indifferent. He had seen through this person thoroughly, and attributed the first half of his life to a joke.If Fang Xuedu, Tian Hu's number one conspirator, hadn't spoken to him frankly, perhaps he wouldn't even want to take this job.

"There are two reasons for Taoist priest to go to Shandong, both for himself and my lord. If you want to stay there, then you can stay. Neither your majesty nor I will blame you. But please remember one thing, Taoist priest, That means you used to be the national teacher of the Great Jin Kingdom! As far as the kindness of knowing you is concerned, Your Majesty is worthy of you!"

Smart people don't need to speak clearly, but if they are too blunt, they will fall into the trap.Tian Hu's almost pleading tone couldn't match Fang Xuedu's two heart-to-heart words.In the end, Qiao Lie set out on the road with a heavy heart. A companion and a bag of laundry became his last thought of saying goodbye to this power.

From Xinzhou to Jeju, Hedong is hard to go, and Hebei is also difficult.This unprecedented fierce battle has not only swept through the east of the river.The Hebei West Road adjacent to it has long been flooded by the influx of refugees, and people fleeing with their families can be encountered everywhere on the road.Qiao Lie also began to reflect on whether his life aspirations had deviated.

The advantage of rushing with problems is that you can drive away the boring and monotonous journey.It's just that the further south he went, the more frightened he became, so that he let go of the confusion in his heart for the time being.Because he was surprised to find that the main source of relief for these refugees along the way was not the local state capital of the imperial court, but a green forest cottage called Yinmachuan.

Qiao Lie of Yinmachuan had heard about it. It used to be an unremarkable small village. Later, the two masters were absorbed by Liangshan, and the village was abandoned.Later, it was occupied by some incompetent boys. When Fang Xuedu recruited Hebei bandits, he didn't pay much attention to this cottage. One can imagine the embarrassment of this group of people.

But nowadays, what embarrassing people do is not embarrassing. Opening porridge shops everywhere, helping refugees, and giving advice, is far more court-like than the local state capitals that try their best to send refugees out of their respective jurisdictions. Qiao Lie gradually became Thoughts, it's not a detour anyway, I took my companions to check the reality.

I don’t know if I don’t look at it, but I’m startled when I see it.Every day, there is an endless stream of people who go up to the mountain to seek refuge. Unlike other green forest cottages, they don't pick who is strong or not. As long as they are willing to go up the mountain, they are treated equally regardless of gender.Qiao Lie wondered if he had been on the bench and had been in prison for a long time, and he was out of touch with the world. He didn't even know that there was such an interesting cottage in Hebei.

If he hadn't been busy, Qiao Lie would have pretended to go up to the mountain to inquire about it, so he had no choice but to spy on the outside.It's only strange that the green forests in Hebei are now withered, and I can't even meet a friend in the rivers and lakes. I inquire and inquire, and the objects are only refugees, and there is no valuable harvest in the end.

Just when Qiao Lie was about to withdraw with suspicion, there was a new situation in this cottage. One day, tens of thousands of imperial cavalry came from the southern road, and swaggered into Yinma River, leaving only Qiao Lie His companion was so startled that he couldn't close his mouth for a while, "Could it be that someone in the court is planning to rebel in Hebei?"

Qiao Lie also felt strange, so he temporarily decided to stay for two more days, but he didn't know that this stay would be bad. Originally, he hadn't been exposed for several days under the secret visit at the foot of the mountain, but after this troop of ten thousand cavalry entered the stronghold, it caused trouble .

"Sensible, put down your sword! I advise you not to do stupid things!" The stern tone made Qiao Lie feel a bit of coolness. He is also a veteran of the world, and he capsized in this gutter. Patriarch, the bad luck is not over yet.

When Qiao Lie looked back, he found several angry bows aimed at him, and the person who spoke was a general in black armor. Qiao Lie thought it would be okay for him to avoid this round of bright arrows, but it was hard to say that he was a companion.Besides, there are weirdness everywhere in this cottage, he has vaguely made a judgment, and immediately admitted that he was defeated, and did not resist.

This general is also a delicate person. He felt that Qiao Lie was not a simple person. He went up to search himself, and finally found a letter in his companion's shoes. , and finally said: "Put the guys away!"

Seeing this, Qiao Lie breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a wry smile, "Fortunately, you are not real officers and soldiers!"

The general heard the meaning of his words, and said with a smile: "Fortunately, you are not really careful!"

Qiao Lie chuckled, cupped his hands and said, "Qiao Lie, the poor Dao Jing Yuan, also known as Dao Qing, who is the leader of Liangshan? Can you tell me your name?"

"The surname is not high and the name is not expensive, little brother Huang Xin! In the past, I heard that Brother Sun An mentioned the name of the Magic King, so I don't want to see the face today, I am very relieved!" The black armor general clasped his fists and said.It's not news that Liang Shanbo reorganized and drink Ma Chuan in Jianghu, and the other party didn't think it was so strange when he guessed his identity. How could he know that Qiao Lie was just released from prison and out of touch with society. The conclusions drawn from the analysis of the poor amount of information.

"It turned out to be Huang Dujian! Poor Dao is so polite!" Qiao Lie said: "Pin Dao has something to ask to see the leader of the King of Guizhai, and I will pay a visit to my old friend Sun An. I don't know where the two of them are now?"

"This is just a branch village in Liangshan. Naturally, my brother and Brother Sun An wouldn't come here easily!" Huang Xin said ambiguously, and did not easily reveal Wang Lun's whereabouts.Although this person has Tian Hu's letter on him, it's hard to guarantee the authenticity. Let Zhu Gui and the others worry about this kind of thing, "Since the Taoist priest is a friend, please go up the mountain and tell me!"

Qiao Lie did not refuse, and followed Huang Xin and his party up the mountain. On the way, Qiao Lie asked Huang Xin what Liang Shanbo sent so many cavalry to Hebei. National teacher, my little brother is curious, I wonder how much Tian Hu spent to cheat so many riders from the Liao Kingdom?"

"Don't be afraid of Brother Huang's jokes. The poor are people who have just come out of the prison. They know very little about how they betrayed the country. However, these Fanbing are not real Liao soldiers, but Xixia people disguised as Liao soldiers." They look like tribal cavalry, deliberately deceiving people! But now that this group has escaped Tian Hu's control, when Pindao came along the road, I heard that they were making trouble in Hebei."

When Huang Xin heard this, [-]% believed that this person was Qiao Lie. This matter was considered a very confidential matter in Hedong. Wang Lun used the secret hidden insider of the Truth Listening Camp to find out the inside story.

"It's not just fierce, it's already disturbing the people and shaking the mountains and rivers. These western thieves have no supplies on them, so they burn, kill and loot along the way to support the war. As long as they spend the night, the whole village will be scorched and all kinds of tragedies I can't bear to see it. Song Guochaotang is busy dealing with your "His Majesty", and his attention is all on Hedong. There are a few officers and troops in Hebei who can fight, but there is no order from the Privy Council, so it is difficult to go out to encircle and suppress. So this group of soldiers is made big!" Huang Xin said angrily.Even my elder brother who was far away in Koryo knew about this incident, and he even wrote to Yanshan to discuss with Wang Qing's leader Du Po, asking him to send troops nearby to stop the violence.

"Sin, sin!" Qiao Lie was ashamed. Although he himself was extremely opposed to mixing with Fanren, Huang Xin's words "Your Majesty" still deeply stimulated him, and after a long silence , Qiao Lie suddenly raised his head, looking at Huang Dao with piercing eyes: "Isn't your army marching from Liangshan to Hebei just to exterminate these gangs?"

"My elder brother sent a message that Fanren deceived me in Huaxia. Since the Song Dynasty court ignored it, then we, Liang Shanbo, will come forward to kill him!" Huang Xin raised his head and said in awe, and found that Qiao Lie had a painful expression on his face. After thinking about it, he said:

"I also read Tian Hu's letter just now. My little brother advised Taoist priest not to place too much hope. People must kill themselves, and then heaven will kill them. Tian Hu has been traitorous in Hedong, disregarding human life, how much crime has he committed? Doing it like this If we don’t take his dog’s life, we’ll take advantage of him. How can we be willing to degenerate and get involved with him? Daoist Master, you are a friend of Chief Sun’s old friend. We will treat you as a friend. If someone else comes over, hehe Hmph, I'm afraid I'm going to be sorry!" (To be continued~^~)
