Chapter 317 Peach Blossom Mountain
The three of them had to sleep in the open air along the way, and suffered a lot.
As for why these three people came to Shandong and met Li Zhong and Zhou Tong?
The reason is simple, nothing more than the attraction of heaven, which made these stars gather here.
The three people from Shaohua Mountain naturally have the blessing of stars, and their cultivation has greatly improved.
Among them, Chen Da, the tiger jumping from the stream, has a cultivation that has even broken through the acquired realm.
All in all, the three people from Shaohua Mountain are far more powerful than Li Zhong and Zhou Tong!
Li Zhong wiped the non-existent cold sweat from his forehead, fearing that the other party would draw their swords and fight if they disagreed.
After all, it would be like killing chickens and dogs if it was just Chen Da.
This tiger-fighting general Li Zhong is a sensible person.
Although his cultivation is not very good, he has been in the martial arts world for many years and is accustomed to the ways of the world.
He immediately wanted to refuse and let Chen Da take the seat, and lead him to be the leader of Taohua Mountain.
Although the little tyrant was unwilling, he could only hide and not speak because he was in a worse situation than others.
Chen Da and Yang Chun's eyes lit up when they heard this.
The three brothers came here to make a living.
Isn't it that the way the green forest acts is to see who has the bigger fist!
Unexpectedly, when Chen Da was about to agree, he was stopped by the military strategist Zhu Wu with a look.
Then Zhu Wu smiled and bowed, saying: "We came here to surrender, and fortunately the village chief took us in. How dare we do such an unjust thing?"
"As long as the village chief Li is willing to take us in, even if the three of us are just a mere lackey, we will be willing."
These words sounded very nice and gave Li Zhong enough face.
Indeed, when Li Zhong heard this, he couldn't help showing a smile on his face.
The green forest relies on the word righteousness. Although most of the time, people of this way treat it as fart, they dare not openly slander it.
Li Zhong also knew that with his own ability, he could not sit firmly in the position of the village chief.
But if Chen Da and the other two are really willing to support them, it's hard to say.
Thinking of this, Li Zhong immediately stood up and greeted them with a smile, helped Chen Da and the other two to stand up, and said frankly that they should take advantage of today to set up a banquet and become brothers.
In this way, Taohua Mountain has three more leaders today.
Li Zhong is still the leader of the village, Chen Da is the second leader, Yang Chun is the third, Zhou Tong is the fourth, and Zhu Wu is the fifth.
It seems that everyone is happy.
Only Zhou Tong smiled reluctantly at the celebration banquet.
After all, within one day, his status went from the second leader of Taohua Village to the fourth.
On the other hand, the three newcomers sat on his head without any effort.
How can Zhou Tong be convinced by this?
As for Yang Chun and the other two, they also don't understand why Zhu Wu refused the position of leader.
"Military Advisor, in my opinion, Li Zhong is only at the first-class level, why don't you let your elder brother take over the position of leader?" Yang Chun asked scratching his head.
Among the three of them, although Zhu Wu was born as a scholar, he also had some good skills. He just worked with Chen Da and Yang Chun and was quite trusted.
Even such brain-intensive things were all handled by Zhu Wu.
"You and I are just newcomers. If we really take over the foundation of Taohua Mountain, let alone whether we can sit firmly, how will outsiders see us three brothers? Don't they secretly say that we are robbing and robbing?" Zhu Wu shook his fan and laughed.
In comparison, the personalities of these three people in the original book are indeed people with face, with generous and righteous personalities.
Otherwise, they would not be able to become sworn brothers with Shi Jin.
"In my opinion, although Li Zhong's ability is not as good as Brother Chen, he is still righteous. It's okay to respect him as the leader of the village. We can also make a name for ourselves by relying on the foundation of Taohua Mountain."
Zhu Wu's eyes flashed with brilliance and his tone was deep.
Of course.
At present, the three people from Shaohua Mountain don't know that Li Zhong is Shi Jin's martial arts master.
If this relationship is revealed, the two sides will not be so awkward.
As for Zhu Wu, he is a scholar.
Because he is a scholar, he knows the historical allusions.
He knows that the current situation in the world is different, and when it is different, it will change, and when it changes, it will be chaos!
How many kings and generals in ancient and modern times started from the grass?
Just when Zhu Wu thought of this, his heart was surging, and a small follower of the mountain stronghold came to report.
"Report!"
"Huh?"
Zhu Wu came back to his senses and saw that his other two brothers also looked confused.
"What happened?"
"It was the officers and soldiers..."
"What...?!" Zhu Wu sensed something was wrong. "Let's go to the big stronghold to find the leader."
Before the tiger-fighting general Li Zhong received the report from the follower, he was still comforting Zhou Tong.
After all, his brother became the fourth leader of the stronghold for no reason, and he must be resentful in his heart.
"Brother, you know me. I am not a petty person. It's just that Chen Da and his three men went up the mountain and did not make any achievements. How can they stand above me?" Zhou Tong said indignantly.
He felt that he could not beat Chen Da.
Chen Da was the second leader, and he was convinced, but Yang Chun was not much better than him!
How could he sit in the position of the third leader? !
Li Zhong's face froze slightly when he heard this.
He didn't think so much about his position as the leader of the big village, just to repay the favor, and just promoted Yang Chun to become the third leader of the village.
Li Zhong was used to the rivers and lakes, and he was quite petty.
According to the plot of the original book.
Lu Zhishen came to Taohua Mountain because the tiger-fighting general was not good at tempering, so he stole gold and silver and fled.
Just when Li Zhong wanted to comfort the little tyrant, he heard the shouting of the minions.
This made his face change.
"Why are you making a fuss in the village?!" Li Zhong shouted in a deep voice.
Not to mention, with tens of thousands of followers under him, Li Zhong also developed a bit of prestige.
The thug was trembling when he heard the voice, and immediately knelt down and said: "Report to the big camp leader, we have heard that the prince of Qi, Chai Jin, is coming with 10,000 troops to attack us, and the vanguard has reached 20 miles below the mountain!"
"What?!"
Li Zhong was shocked when he heard the words, and murmured, "It came so quickly?!"
Li Zhong and Zhou Tong have been busy drinking and having fun these days, and have completely forgotten about the imperial court sending troops to attack.
Although it was refreshing to plunder Qingzhou that day, now that the matter has come, they are panicking.
Fortunately, Zhu Wu and the other two came in hand in hand.
Zhu Wu shook his head when he saw Li Zhong's appearance.
This kind of appearance is not worthy of being a big man.
Li Zhong saw his three newly recognized brothers coming in, and for a moment he seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw.
"Good brothers, the imperial court army is coming, what should we do?"
Zhu Wu did not answer directly, but looked at the thug who reported the news and asked for details.
It turned out that
Only the vanguard troops, about 3,000 people, arrived at Taohua Mountain.
In addition, the soldiers who conquered Taohua Mountain this time were also soldiers from the Qi Wang vassal territory.
Zhu Wu asked, and he understood.
You should know that his nickname is called Shenji Military Advisor, so he is naturally good at strategy and has some quick wit.
"Big village leader, these Qi Wang vassal soldiers have come a long way, and they are exhausted, and there are only 3,000 people. It's just right for the leaders in the village to lead the minions down the mountain and attack them by surprise and dampen their spirit!"
"That makes sense!"
Chen Da, the jumping tiger, nodded repeatedly when he heard the words.
Li Zhong also felt that what Zhu Wu said made some sense, so he looked at the leaders.
Yang Chun understood: "Brother, I'm new here, I'm willing to fight!"
