But his emotional intelligence is truly astounding!
After only a moment's thought,
Song Jiang already understood the problem.
What a mistake!
How could you have forgotten about the strategist of Liangshan?
He's not a complete江湖人 (jianghu person, a person who lives and works in the martial arts world) at all!
Thinking of this,
Song Jiang could only shake his head in frustration.
He then bowed and clasped his hands in greeting again.
He quickly tried to rectify his mistake.
"The three strategists are too kind. How can my little reputation compare to that of the three strategists of Liangshan?"
"Sir Song, don't be modest. In this world of outlaws, who doesn't know your reputation as Timely Rain?"
Wen Huanzhang smiled, waving his feather fan.
"Not to mention, in Shandong, Clerk Song's reputation is in no way inferior to our Chief Zhao's!"
Upon hearing this, Song Jiang
His expression immediately changed.
He inwardly cried out in despair.
After all, Timely Rain was only the second-in-command of Qingfeng Mountain at this time.
Upon hearing Huanzhang's words...
But they directly compared him to Zhao Yuan, the leader of Liangshan!
So where does that leave Chao Gai, the chief of Qingfeng Mountain?
Once these words spread...
I'm afraid the martial arts world will find out soon.
Song Jiang should be in charge of Qingfeng Mountain.
It wasn't Chao Gai, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King!
On the surface, this statement appears to be praising Song Jiang,
In reality, it was a veiled attempt to incite infighting within Qingfeng Mountain!
Although Song Jiang did indeed have the ambition to monopolize Qingfeng Mountain,
But he is currently weak.
He certainly didn't want to think about it.
At this moment, the whole world knew about it!
"The three strategists are truly too kind,"
Song Jiang, the timely rain, hurriedly waved his hand.
He said with a sincere expression
"How could I, Song, compare to Chief Zhao!"
"Even on Qingfeng Mountain, there is Chao Tianwang who far surpasses Song Jiang..."
Chapter 701 Li Kui Searches for Song Jiang
Song Jiang seems to be trying to distance himself from the situation.
Liu Tang, who was standing next to him
But he was a rough man.
Little did they know the intricacies involved.
Seeing these three Liangshan strategists,
They all seemed to quite "accept" Song Jiang's reputation.
The man immediately burst into laughter.
"Brother Gongming, why are you being so modest!"
"Your reputation as the timely rain is well-known throughout Shandong!"
This idiot!
Song Jiang helplessly rubbed his forehead.
Fortunately, Wen Huanzhang here only saw that Song Jiang had just arrived.
Then they started plotting against us.
That's why we went with the flow.
I disgusted him!
Now we can see it clearly.
Wen Huanzhang did not continue.
After exchanging a few polite words with Song Jiang, Hua Rong, and Liu Tang,
Under the leadership of the three strategists of Liangshan
Song Jiang and his men started walking up the mountain.
Having learned from previous lessons,
Timely Rain dared not try any more tricks in front of Xu Guanzhong and the other two.
Seeing this, Xu Guanzhong and his men
They were also doing their best to fulfill their responsibilities as landlords.
While going up the mountain,
While introducing the scenery of Liangshan to Song Jiang,
"The entire Liangshan mountain range consists of four main peaks: Liangshan, Qinglongshan, Fenghuangshan, and Guishan,"
"It is composed of seven mountain ranges, including Tiger Head Peak, Snow Mountain Peak, Hao Mountain Peak, and Little Yellow Mountain!"
"The entire mountain range covers tens of thousands of hectares,"
"This is also why the lake can accommodate tens of thousands of people!"
As soon as Wen Huanzhang finished speaking,
Timely Rain couldn't help but exclaim.
"I never imagined that this lake would contain such a hidden paradise!"
"This area of water, spanning eight hundred li, serves as the natural barrier for Liangshan,"
Xu Guanzhong laughed,
"Don't even mention that the government army only dispatched a few thousand troops this time!"
"Even if they send tens of thousands of troops, they won't be able to easily take down Liangshan!"
"Military Advisor Xu is right!"
Song Jiang nodded repeatedly as he listened.
"This 800-li-long marshland is indeed a natural barrier for Liangshan!"
Liangshan gained three strategists.
He led Song Jiang and his men to enjoy the scenery along the way.
After passing the three trials
Only then did they enter the heart of Liangshan.
And at this point...
Song Jiang, however, stared in even greater astonishment.
Beyond these three passes, Liangshan was a place of great prosperity.
Either houses or villages,
Or it's a farm workshop.
People coming and going,
It was so crowded that people were shoulder to shoulder, coming and going in an endless stream!
Before this trip to Liangshan,
Although Song Jiang had heard of it,
On this Liangshan Mountain,
There were tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians.
But before that,
He, however, always thought it was just an exaggeration.
After all, this world,
Where can you find a bandit stronghold with tens of thousands of people?
But by this time...
Having witnessed the prosperity of Liangshan with my own eyes,
He then realized,
What does it mean to say something is true?
Liu Tang once went to Liangshan.
Faced with this bustling scene before me
It's become quite common, to say the least.
But Hua Rong next to her
They were so surprised they could hardly close their mouths.
He didn't expect that
This is a bandit leader from Liangshan.
Its main base,
It was such a vibrant scene, with people living in peace and contentment.
No wonder I had heard about the people of Jeju and Yunju before.
When there is no other way out
They would all come to join Liangshan!
Hua Rong thought to himself.
Living under the rule of Liangshan
It certainly looks much more relaxed and comfortable than being under the government's rule!
"How is it, brother?"
Hua Xiaomei laughed,
"Isn't the scenery on Liangshan Mountain quite nice?"
"Um,"
