Chapter 232: On Luliang Mountain (Part 2)
; On Luliang Mountain, there is a bandit entrenched. The bandit leader Feng Fayong has about a thousand people under his command. He robs passing merchants, kidnaps and extorts money. He is very famous in Hejian and Yuyang. He is the number one person in the green forest in these two counties. , but for some unknown reason, neither of the two counties made any effort to exterminate him. Whenever they committed evil deeds and were forced by the public's anger, it was only in a daze. It made the Lvliang bandits more famous, and made them more unscrupulous and powerful.
And Jiang Xinliang and Jiang Jiaquan worked tirelessly to climb Luliang Mountain, and what they wanted to meet was Feng Fayong, the leader of the Luliang bandits.
Feng Fayong is in his forties, not tall, short and capable, with a vigorous look on his face, sitting on a chair crookedly, spinning two shiny iron balls in his hands, and the iron balls collide with each other from time to time, making a crisp sound , looked at Jiang Xinliang and Jiang Jiaquan opposite, with eyes full of sneer, "What good can I do? I know the lofty, famous guy you are talking about, who can do well in Fufeng and Donghu people, how good is it?" To deal with it, to attack alone from thousands of miles away, to burn down the food and grass that King Donghu has worked so hard for several years, and to escape the cause unharmed, is not only a hard bone, but also a piece of iron, you let me touch it He, I don't think I have much chance of winning."
Jiang Xinliang's face showed anger, a little bandit treats you like a human being, and you really think of yourself as a human being, and you actually made a fool of yourself, my son, and me, as soon as you slapped the table, you were about to explode, Jiang Jiaquan left to know your son , when Jiang Xinliang was about to have an attack, he had already held him down and shook his head lightly.
Jiang Xinliang tried his best to suppress his anger, picked up the teacup on the table, and pretended to drink tea to cover up his inner anger, but his trembling wrist still betrayed his current mood, the wrist trembled, and tea splashed out from time to time, sprinkled on the on his robe.
Feng Fayong, who watched Jiang Xinliang desperately suppressing his emotions, sneered at the corner of his mouth. He thought that he was really an idiot. Jiang Dawei was also considered a hero for a while, but he was not very angry when he gave birth to a son. It seems that the era of the Jiang family's high-spirited Until Jiang Dawei's life.
"Mr. Jiang, Mr. Jiang, this Gao Yuan is a hard bone. Just because of the hundreds of thousands of catties of grain and grass he escorted, he wants me to pull out my teeth. This condition can't impress me at all." Although Jiang Xinliang's name was called in his mouth, but His eyes looked at Jiang Jiaquan, "What's more, the two of you went up the mountain all the way, the road was muddy, even if you made such a high distance, how would I get the food up the mountain? This benefit looks good, but it's not enough to eat What's more, what he escorted was military rations. I robbed the military rations. Maybe I would offend that Lieutenant Zhou. I can't afford to offend this old man. To help you, I killed myself It’s not cost-effective, is it? No one is willing to do such a loss-making business, hahaha, you two have worked hard all the way, the scenery on my Luliang Mountain is not bad, you might as well rest for a few days My God, I asked the little ones to take all the distinguished guests around and have a look, it's not worth the trip."
"This is impossible!" Jiang Xinliang put the teacup heavily on the table, "Feng Da, I will not hide from you, you robbed this batch of military rations, I can guarantee that Zhou Taiwei will never trouble you, because he I also think about Gao Yuan's death, Gao Yuan's death, but he has saved a lot of trouble."
"Oh?" Feng Fayong couldn't help being very interested, "What is the origin of this Gao Yuan? Not only did he offend your Jiang family, but he even offended the current court captain. With your power, killing such a mere county captain is nothing. What? Still need to borrow a knife to kill someone?"
"You don't need to know that, anyway, you just need to understand that if you kill him, not only our Jiang family will thank you, but even the court captain will accept your favor." Jiang Xinliang said arrogantly.
Feng Fayong blinked and looked at Jiang Xinliang, and suddenly burst out laughing, "Mr. Jiang, you are wrong, your Jiang family may thank me, but Taiwei Zhou will never think so, he must be thinking, this is really a good opportunity Ah, this idiot surnamed Feng not only helped me get rid of the thorn in Gao Yuan's side, but also gave me the opportunity to deal with him, killing two birds with one stone, killing two birds with one stone, wonderful! So I, Feng, died in the midst of the Taiwei's wonderful, I, Feng, have self-knowledge, although Luliang is dangerous, it is still difficult for a country's Taiwei."
"Although Luliang is dangerous, it is difficult for a country's Taiwei, so can it be difficult for Yuyang County Sheriff?" Jiang Jiaquan ignored Jiang Xinliang, whose face was blue with anger, and said sinisterly.
"Mr. Jiang, what does this mean? Threatening me? I, Feng, have stayed in Luliang Mountain for so many years, and I haven't seen what the Yuyang County guard has done to me?" Feng Fayong sneered.
"Is...?" Jiang Jiaquan elongated his tone, and his tone was full of sarcasm and teasing, "Mr. Feng, are you really stupid, or are you pretending to be confused? You can stay in Luliang Mountain for so long. Did you really rely on your own ability?"
"What do you mean?" Feng Fayong changed his color, the two iron balls in his hands slammed into each other with a bang, and a fierce look appeared on his face.
Jiang Jiaquan looked at the ferocious bandit leader without fear, "Master Feng, your origin may not be known to outsiders, but you don't know when you are the prefect of my family? All these years, I have not moved you and let you enjoy yourself. In the face of Linghu Chao and the people behind him, now that Linghu Chao has fallen, the two countries of Yan and Zhao have become enemies, and the two countries are about to go to war. Is it necessary for my county guard to show mercy to you? You know, my county guard has been under a lot of pressure because of you all these years, now, since no one has paid for your existence, what do you think is the value of your existence?"
Feng Fayong took a deep breath, slammed two iron balls on the table in his hand, and stood up abruptly, "So what, it's great that I, Feng, left this piece of foundation, anyway, I have made a lot of money all these years." Enough is enough, it's not bad to go back to your hometown and be a rich man."
"Are you able to leave?" Jiang Jiaquan looked up to the sky and laughed, "Where are you going? Have you earned enough, have your subordinates made enough? If you want to leave, can my county guard let you go? Da Feng, Luliang Mountain is your career and your prison, you can't go anywhere."
"Don't forget, there are two great hostages in front of me. Jiang Junshou is so kind to me. I'm afraid I won't be able to escape, but he actually sent his only son to me. It's wonderful!" Feng Fayong grinned grimly. stand up.
Hearing Feng Fayong's words, Jiang Xinliang was shocked, stood up suddenly, put his hand on the handle of the knife, and the guard behind him took a step forward, and the Xueliang steel knife came out of its sheath, protecting Jiang Xinliang.
Feng Fayong looked at them with sideways eyes, just sneered.
Jiang Jiaquan looked at Feng Fayong without changing his face and heartbeat, "Master Feng, you have been in Luliang Mountain for many years, and you must know the county sheriff very well. Is my county sheriff a person who is willing to be threatened? The more you threaten, The more my county guard hates you, he can't help but chop you into meat paste, but he will never promise you any conditions."
"This is the only son of Governor Jiang."
"My county guard is only in his early forties. He is in his prime, a good man, why bother to have no wife, why not have children?" Jiang Jiaquan glanced at Jiang Xinliang, saw that his face had turned from white to red, and then purple, Turn white again.
Feng Fayong was choked up, looked at Jiang Jiaquan, and was speechless for a while.
"Feng Da, you are not an ordinary person. My county guard thinks highly of you, so I specially sent the young master up the mountain. This is to save face. At the same time, this is your only chance. Go down the mountain and become a clean and innocent man. The opportunity to clean yourself up." Jiang Jiaquan said with a dry smile. "If you don't seize this opportunity, you can imagine the consequences."
Feng Fayong looked at Jiang Jiaquan, his expression changed, Jiang Jiaquan also stared at Feng Fayong, his heart was like a stormy sea, if the other party was not the kind of person he had in mind, but a complete gangster, then it would be really difficult for him and the eldest son to live today gone back.
Time passed, but in Jiang Jiaquan's heart, it really felt like years.
Feng Fayong sat down dejectedly, "What do you want?" When he said these words, it was as if his entire energy had been sucked away, and he was like a deflated ball.
"Simple, kill this Gao Yuan, and you can go down the mountain. In Yuyang County Governor's Mansion, there is already a vacancies." Jiang Jiaquan heaved a sigh of relief, clapped his hands and laughed.
"Kill? Easier said than done?" Feng Fayong shook his head and said, "Gao Yuan is very brave. His army can fight against the Donghu cavalry without losing, while my brother on the mountain, although brave, is just a straggler. But if you want to fight against the army, you will definitely lose."
"It doesn't matter if you can't kill him. Burn his rations and let him go to the Yuyang front line naked. Naturally, there will be military law against him. It's the same as killing him on the spot. The leader of Feng Da just burned the rations he escorted." , this isn’t too difficult, is it? Besides, this is your territory, and it’s not that there’s no chance to kill him, it just depends on your intentions, Mr. Feng.” Jiang Jiaquan laughed, he understood that the initiative had already been taken. It's all in your hands.
"It's all said and done, and if you say something that is not dedicated, it's natural to do it with all your strength." Feng Fayong sighed. "When will he arrive?"
"According to their marching speed, after ten days, they should pass under Luliang Mountain. At that time, it will be time for you, Master Feng, to show your talents."
"Ten days later, well, it will be ten days later!" Feng Fayong stood up fiercely. "Mr. Jiang, Mr. Jiang, won't you go back on the promise you just made?"
"Of course I don't regret it. Mr. Jiang and I will stand guard on your mountain. How about advancing and retreating with you? After the success, how about we return to Yuyang Prefecture together?" Jiang Jiaquan laughed and said, "My son has always admired you, Mr. Feng. The head of the family always wants to have a good time with you, this time is a good opportunity, how many days do you want to stay in Luliang Mountain with you?"
"Okay, okay!" Feng Fayong was overjoyed immediately, "It's what I wish for, there is another beauty in my Luliang Mountain, just for the two of you to visit, it is a rare hot spring, you might as well go take a dip , soaking in a hot bath, looking at the snow-covered mountains, isn’t it fun?”
"It's wonderful. I've been exhausted waiting for this journey, so I just went to get tired!" Hearing that there was a hot spring to soak in, Jiang Xinliang immediately beamed with joy.
"Come here, take the honored guests down to rest!" Feng Fayong picked up two iron balls on the table with one hand, and spun them clangingly again.
