Chapter 480 They Are All Mine!

When Li Tang founded the country,

the first emperor remembered the bravery and merits of the generals of the previous dynasty, Guo, who "abandoned darkness and joined the light", and specially conferred the title of King of Qi after the founding of the country. His fiefdom included one prefecture, seven states and counties, and 62 counties under his jurisdiction.

One prefecture and seven states and counties are Denglai, Mizhou, Weizhou, Zibo, Qingzhou, Yizhou and Jinan Prefecture.

Jinan Prefecture was formerly known as Qizhou, and it was also the place where the King of Qi opened his office, and it was feared by all directions.

It can be said that this group of kings of different surnames conferred by the first emperor of Li Tang was very similar to the scene when Emperor Gaozu of Han founded the country.

The only difference is that the first emperor of Li Tang had not had time to purge the kings of different surnames under him, and then make a white horse alliance, he died first and passed the throne to the young Li Zhao.

It is conceivable.

The first emperor who suppressed all the kings of different surnames died, and the new emperor ascended the throne at a young age. How could those who are interested not be ready to move?

If Li Zhao had not shown his extraordinary skills after ascending the throne, and if he had not been assisted by Zhao Kuangyin who had not shown any rebellious intentions, it would have been difficult for him to secure the throne in a short period of time.

When the kings of different surnames found out that something was wrong, they had already missed the opportunity.

Let's talk about the Qi Wang lineage.

Qi Fan had one prefecture and seven counties, and the population under its jurisdiction was no less than one million.

Moreover, it benefited from boiling salt by the sea, which made Qi Wang the leader of the kings of different surnames.

Before the bandit rebellion in Shandong, Qi Fan could raise 70,000 soldiers!

Not to mention the soldiers raised by Qi Wang privately.

It can be seen that Qi Fan was rich.

Compared with the former King of Wu, it was a world of difference.

When King Wu raised his army to rebel, his soldiers, with the help of Hong Antong of the Shenlong Sect, only raised 40,000 troops.

If the King of Wu had not used the power of the Tuzu clans in Indochina, he would have been wiped out by the King of Ning alone, and his entire family would have been sent to the capital to await their fate.

As the saying goes, the first bird to stick its head out gets shot.

This is why Li Zhao was suspicious of the King of Qi Guo Rong, and even used the banditry as an excuse to let Lin Chen lead the Yulin Guard to Shandong.

On the surface, it was to wipe out the Shandong banditry, but in fact it was to instruct Lin Chen to take action against the King of Qi when necessary.

However, when Lin Chen discovered that the so-called Shandong banditry was the beginning of the Water Margin plot, he had another idea in his mind.

Look, the Liangshan bandits who were making a lot of noise in Qi were so powerful that they broke through the three Qi vassal states of Qingzhou, Weizhou, and Zibo!

Of course, the Liangshan bandits were cunning, and except for Qingzhou, there were not many vassal soldiers in the remaining two states.

In addition, the combat style of shooting and running made it difficult for the King of Qi to wipe them out.

What frightened Guo Rong even more was the slogan of this group of Liangshan bandits: "Do justice for the heaven, eliminate corrupt officials, and divide the land equally!"

Good guy!

The King of Qi didn't dare to think about what the Liangshan bandits would do next!

Facts have proved that this trick is very effective.

Haven't you seen that Li Zicheng, the King of Rebellion in the late Ming Dynasty, swept the whole world with similar propaganda!

At the same time, it sounded the death knell for the demise of the Ming Dynasty.

What's more interesting is.

Song Jiang, who is called the leader of the Liangshan bandits, calls himself the timely rain, and has as many as forty or fifty heroes and outstanding talents under his command!

Yes.

In the original book of Water Margin, except for those that Lin Chen has recruited, most of the heroes and heroes in the rest of the book joined Liangshan after it became stronger.

This made Lin Chen have to wonder if there was any destiny in it.

You know, under the blessing of the destiny of the stars, the strength of these Water Margin heroes is terrifying.

Even the 72 evil leaders in the original book have martial arts skills that are not inferior to the first or second-rate ones under the blessing of destiny.

But what caught Lin Chen's attention was Lin Chong, who called himself Leopard Head on Liangshan.

This man was originally a local military officer instructor. Because the local corrupt officials coveted Lin Chong's wife, they framed him and forced him to become a bandit.

Lin Chen felt a ripple in his heart when he heard the news.

This Lin Chong did not serve as an instructor in the capital as in the original book, but went somewhere else?

But it is true that Li Tang is not as relaxed in military preparation as the Song Dynasty in the original book Water Margin.

With Lin Chong's ability, he can't be the instructor of the 800,000 imperial guards.

In this mixed martial arts world, Lin Chong was just a military scholar who was arranged to be a sixth-rank official in the local prefecture.

Responsible for training local military horses and catching bandits.

It is almost the same as Zhang Dujian who framed Wu Song and made him bleed in Yuanyang Tower in the original Water Margin.

After Lin Chong joined the Liangshan bandits, he was blessed by destiny and was really brave. Even the peak warriors could not do anything with his blood and blood. He also had the ability to command troops.

When King Guo Rong of Qi learned about this kind of person, he was shocked and sighed that he could not use him.

However.

Among Liangshan, Lin Chong was only ranked fifth.

The first four were Song Jiang, the timely rain, Pei Xuan, the iron-faced man, Lu Junyi, the jade unicorn, and Lu Zhishen, the flower monk!

These four people were not ordinary people under the destiny of the stars.

Thus, the current situation of Qi Fan was formed.

The Liangshan bandits did not occupy the state capital, but only defended in the dangerous place, waiting for the Qi Fan army to come to encircle and suppress.

Whenever there was an opportunity, they would take advantage of the Qi Fan army's unpreparedness and select elite troops to raid the counties in various places, plunder and release food, making the Qi Fan army exhausted.

Even Guo Rong, a ruthless man who could fight in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, had to temporarily avoid the Liangshan heroes who were blessed by the stars.

This was because Guo Rong, as the founding monarch, was superior to the Liangshan group in martial arts and strategy.

However, the ability of Guo Rong's generals was not as good as the Liangshan leaders who had more people and more power.

"Brother, do you think our affairs are really endorsed by the court?" Lin Chong's tone was a bit anxious and expectant.

Yesterday, they successfully seized a large number of horses in Zengtou City, and Lin Chong made great military achievements.

Today, pigs and cattle were slaughtered in the camp, and there was a lot of jubilation.

Only Lin Chong's eyes were red from drinking, and he had the intention of biting someone.

For him, what he wanted to do most at this moment was to kill the guy who had framed him!

"Brother, when have I ever lied to you?" Song Jiang put away the smile on his face and patted Lin Chong's shoulder as if to comfort him.

Lu Zhishen also nodded in affirmation. Just like the original book, Master Lu went to Liangshan under the instruction of Lin Chen, and also made friends with Lin Chong, and they had a close relationship.

After getting Lu Zhishen's affirmation, Lin Chong breathed a sigh of relief, but his tiger eyes still revealed deep anger and determination.

Seeing this, Song Jiang sighed and said no more.

He also knew that most of these heroes were people with ill-fated fates.

"In the middle of this month, Leopard Head Lin Chong and Flower Monk Lu Zhishen set up an ambush in Zengtou City. The Qi vassal army did not investigate, and less than 30% of the 20,000 troops escaped!"

"The Liangshan bandits seized the horses in Zengtou City and became more powerful."

Lin Chen looked at the intelligence sent by the Jinyiwei, and an inexplicable smile flashed in his eyes.

Because of this, Qi Wang Guo Rong, who was bled to death, wrote to the court for support.

As for Lin Chen.

After Li Zhao issued an order, he rushed to Shandong Qi as Lin Chenjia, a general of the Yulin Army, to recruit people.

However, this recruiting team did not move fast.

The reason is that Lin Chen is not in a hurry.

After all, the leaders of the entire Liangshan bandits are his people!
