Similarly, after Pei Xuan.
Deng Fei was a man of loyalty and did not care about power. He was upright and upright. After he saved Pei Xuan with Meng Kang, he gave up the position of the Mountain Stronghold Master of Yinmachuan to Pei Xuan because he was the oldest. Later, he fought three times against the Zhu family and fought against Fang La. He was brave and resourceful. After he went to Liangshan, he saved people in battle many times, but he died in the end. He was cut in half by the enemy.
Therefore, looking at what he had done, he was indeed worthy of being called a good man. It was just that good people did not have a good ending.
Therefore, talents like Pei Xuan and Deng Fei had good character and talent. Liu Cheng was naturally willing to accept them. As for their lack of martial arts, that was not a problem at all. After all, he had already trained thousands of people, so it was not a big deal for them.
Finally, Meng Kang was also a man of character. The most rare thing was that not only did he have superb craftsmanship in shipbuilding, but he was also especially good at commanding land and water operations. This was also a very rare talent, even more precious than the three Ruan brothers.
After all, they didn't know how to build ships, did they? Right now, Mount Liang lacked ships to go out to sea, not even inland warships. As for those small fishing boats, it was fine.
In short, these three people were ideal lackeys. One knew the law and could help Liu Cheng perfect the laws of Liangshan. Another could build ships and help Liu Cheng build warships. The last one could be the vanguard and help Liu Cheng charge into battle.
Compared to Lin Chong, Wu Song, and the others, the three of them were the real wealth. They were worth Liu Cheng coming down from Liangshan to personally invite them.
One day, Liu Cheng, Zhu Gui and the others came to Yinma River to pay a visit to Pei Xuan and the other two geniuses. As Liu Cheng's reputation had long spread to the whole world, the three of them were not only excited but also very respectful to him. Facing Liu Cheng's recruitment, they bowed down to him without saying anything and took all the people in the village and their belongings to go to Liangshan Mountain.
Liu Chengxian arranged for Pei Xuan to go to the government office to teach more officials. After all, Liangshan lacked talents who could govern the people, so he let Pei Xuan be a teacher for a few months and cultivate some talents. Meng Kang was also assigned to build a shipyard. He also needed people and money. In Liangshan Lake, all the craftsmen were under his control. Their mission was to build ships, especially ships.
In the end, Deng Fei was accepted as a personal guard by Liu Cheng and joined the Blood Guards to lead them. This was because Deng Fei had the talent to cultivate blood essence, and his character was indeed trustworthy. It was very normal for him to be entrusted with such an important task.
……
……
A few days later, Pei Xuan, Deng Fei, and Meng Kang sent Liu Cheng and his group to the north. Then, they packed up their luggage and took Liu Cheng's letter and all their belongings. They disguised themselves as government troops and went south to Jeju Prefecture to join the Liangshan Army.
Not long after, Liu Cheng and the others, who had left Yinma River, arrived at the Ji Prefecture.
In fact, the current Ji Province was the territory of the Liao Kingdom.
Perhaps they were not familiar with Jizhou Province; however, they knew where they were when they talked about the 16 provinces of Yanyun. Jizhou Province was one of the 16 provinces of Yanyun.
During the chaos of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, Shi Jingtang, a Shatuo man, rebelled against the Tang Dynasty and established himself as the Jin Dynasty. He betrayed Yanyun to the Khitans. From then on, the Khitans became a powerful semi-nomadic and semi-agricultural empire. They suppressed the Northern Song Dynasty until it was suffocating. This led to the Central Plains Dynasty paying tribute to the Hu tribe, and it lasted for 200 years.
After the fall of the Northern Song Dynasty, this piece of land fell into the hands of the Jin Kingdom and the Mongolians. It had been separated from China for three to four hundred years, four times longer than Hong Kong's ceding. It was not until the Ming Dynasty, founded by Zhu Yuanzhang, that it was recovered. Then, Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty established the capital in Beijing. From then on, the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties was located here.
In short, its geographical location was very important. The terrain was high, and the flat land of Hebei was wide enough for cavalry to gallop. Therefore, the Khitans who occupied Yanyun suppressed the Central Plains Dynasty in terms of general situation and beat the Han people until they had no temper.
As the saying went, if Yanyun was lost, the Central Plains would have no barrier. The Central Plains would be in chaos. This was something that could be proven with blood.
This time, when Liu Cheng arrived at Yinma River, he was already very close to Yanyun. Therefore, he naturally wanted to see this piece of land that had been separated from Huaxia for 200 years and see its current situation. After all, as the Crown Prince of the Han Dynasty and a true Han, it would be a great humiliation to see Yanyun occupied by the Hu Tribe.
In particular, the disaster, pain, and humiliation that the Khitans had brought to the Han people. It had been two hundred years, and some blood debts deserved to be settled.
To put it simply, with the importance of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, since Liu Cheng was already so close, he had to make a trip there. There was no reason for him to not enter his home. Furthermore, he was spying on its situation in preparation for taking back Yanyun in the future.
Today, the group arrived at the border of Song and Liao. Zhu Gui gave ten taels of silver to the border guards, and then the group smoothly left the Northern Song territory. When they arrived at the Liao territory, Zhu Gui gave them another ten taels of silver. Just like that, the group of them entered the Liao country in a grand manner. From this, it could be seen that by this time, whether it was the Northern Song Dynasty or the Liao Kingdom, they had already rotted to the bones. No wonder these two countries had fallen in just a few years. The males of the royal family were all dead or injured, and the women were all slaves and prostitutes.
Jizhou.
It bordered the Northern Song Dynasty, so its customs were very similar to the Northern Song Dynasty.
Well, they looked similar, but they still had a strong Hu vibe. Their clothes were very different from the traditional Han people. Liu Cheng sighed when he noticed this detail. The Zhao family was incompetent. They missed the time to recover the 16 prefectures of Yanyun. Therefore, the Han people here had lived in the Liao Kingdom for nearly 200 years. Naturally, they had been assimilated.
Just like now, the people here considered themselves Liao people, not Han people.
Not long after, the group of them entered the Ji Prefecture City. At this moment, in front of the street, they happened to see a joyous sound. It was the bridal escort team.
The leading groom was sitting on a tall white horse. He was very handsome and proud of himself.
"Who is this person? Why is he so ostentatious?”Zhu Gui had been doing intelligence for a long time and had the keen sense of a spy leader. At this time, he asked the person beside him.
"Don't you know?" The person next to them was stunned. He then looked at the clothes of Zhu Gui and the others, especially the sleeves of their hands. He instantly came to a realization and said,"So you guys are from the south.”
"Let me tell you, this person is called Yang Xiong. He is a well-known man. His hands and eyes are all over the world.”
"He married the daughter of Butcher Pan in the west of the city. That woman was born on the seventh day of the seventh month, so her small name is Qiaoyun. She originally married an official who was a local, but she passed away a year ago.”
