Chapter 28 Chapter Twenty-Eight

But when he said that he would return after breaking the Jinting alliance, Li Kui invited Wu Wei and Gongsun Ying to discuss the matter of attacking the reversed country. During the discussion, they saw "Shenxing Taiwei" Dai Bao welcoming Yu Meiren. It turned out that Yu Meiren had borrowed 2000 troops from Jiangdong's children to attack the reverse country, and he met Dai Bao on the way.When Li Kui saw Yu Meiren, he grinned and asked her to discuss the military plan together. Wu Weidao: "'If you don't enter the tiger's lair, how can you get tiger cubs'. Sun Wuzi is the right way in the art of war. He knows himself and the enemy, and he will never be imperiled in a hundred battles. It is better to send a brother to the upside-down country to inquire about the information, and then attack before it is too late." Everyone agreed, and Li Kui summoned them. "Tiger into the Cloud" Lei Zhen went to the upside-down country to find out the truth.

"Tiger into the Cloud" Lei Zhen listened to the order, disguised himself as a businessman selling dog skin plasters, and went to the Reversing Country. After a day, there was no news from Lei Zhen, the "tiger into the cloud". "Hui Duohai" Wu Wei knew that there was a change, and discussed with Li Kui: "This upside-down country is full of women. I'm afraid it will be inconvenient for men. I don't know if I will send the 'Sanzhanghong' girl to find out the truth." After a day, there was no news from Lei Zhen, the "tiger into the cloud".

"Hui Duo Hai" Wu Wei made a change in it, and discussed with Li Kui: "This upside-down country is full of women. I'm afraid it will be inconvenient for men. I don't know if I will send the 'Sanzhanghong' girl to find out the truth." Li Kui called for his young lady, who disguised herself as a singing girl and went to the country of inversion. After two days, there was no news from the little lady.Li Kui was a little anxious, and Wu Wei said again: "Without Yan Ling, Zhang Xiaoting is highly skilled in martial arts. She is used to flying stones and is very delicate. Why don't you send her there again. If it doesn't work, I have to go with Fengchun."

That Zhang Xiaoting went to the upside-down country dressed as a chivalrous woman.But Luo Xiaozhi spent the past few days with Yu Meiren, Wen Jinhua, Xiao Qiuping, Princess Jinzhi, Lu Weiwei, Guo Yanyan, Hu Yanying and other heroines, dancing with guns and swords all day long, and also learned some martial arts, very happy. Then Chen Hongbo also learned martial arts from Hu Yanyu, Guan Mai, Dong Bo, Qin Liang, etc., and learned a little bit of saber technique. Luo Xiaozhi lived in Penglai Palace, and Hong Bo lived with Li Kui in the Golden Knife Pavilion behind the Juyi Hall because he discussed military plans with Li Kui and Wu Wei.

That night, it snowed heavily in Liangshan, and immediately the surroundings were dressed up like a world of silver light.It was already midnight when Luo Xiaozhi came back from Mrs. Hua's place, feeling very tired, she was supported by her maid and fell asleep. Unexpectedly, while she was sleeping, she suddenly felt someone touch her; Xiaozhi woke up suddenly, and she looked like Lin Feng in the darkness.Xiaozhi said: "What are you doing here?" Lin Feng begged: "Sister Luo, only the two of us know, don't make a scene!" As he spoke, he fumbled on Xiaozhi's body, Xiaozhi pushed him away and shouted: "Come here. People!" When Lin Feng heard this, he ran away in fright, and ran into Mrs. Lin who had heard the news, and when he saw this situation, he shouted angrily, "You unfilial son, you actually did such a thing, take it with me quickly. Get off!" The maid next to him came over and tied Lin Feng tightly, and brought the twigs to the Juyi hall.At this time, the sky was already dark, and Mrs. Lin beat the drums. Suddenly, Li Kui, Hong Bo and all the heroes came together; they heard Mrs. Lin tell the whole story.When Lin Feng saw Li Kui, he looked ashamed and knelt down and said, "My nephew was confused for a moment and did something rude. I beg the village master to forgive me."

As soon as Li Kui heard it, he said, "Your father 'Leopard Head' Lin Chong is upright and upright, and justice is the most important thing. He has made great contributions to Liangshan and was named one of the five tiger generals. He is really worthy of a hero! But you did such a stealthy thing, it's really shameful!" Luo Xiaozhi knelt down with tears in his eyes and said, "It's all because brother Lin Feng is still young and confused for a while, the village master will spare him this time." Hong Bo also stepped forward to persuade him: "Lin Feng is young in grades, and his martial arts skills are strong. Liangshan is currently recruiting troops. He is in urgent need of such a general. For his father's sake, let him atone for his crimes when he attacked the Upside Down Kingdom." .”

Mrs. Lin shouted angrily: "No! No! My son Lin Feng violated the Liangshan military law and molested the daughter of a good family. He should be sentenced to death. The law does not tolerate others. Please give the village master a clear reward and punishment, and punish my son with military law." Lin Feng was ashamed and stood silently. Nahu Yanyu, Hua Fengchun, Guan Mai, Dong Bo, Cheng and other heroes stepped forward to intercede for Lin Feng. Li Kui asked military adviser Wu Weidao: "What do you think, sir?" Wu Wei pondered for a while, and said: "The village master may have heard the story of Zhuge Liang beheading Ma Di with tears in the Three Kingdoms period. Military law is ruthless, from ancient times to the present, otherwise the law will not rule the people, and it will not be able to do what it wants. The village master, please think twice!"

At this time, Mrs. Lin gritted her teeth, pulled out her waist knife with a "swish", and cried loudly: "The villain Lin Feng did not abide by the military law, violated his father's long-cherished wish, and ruined my Liangshan reputation. Zai, when will you wait?!" After saying that, he split Lin Feng in two with a knife, and saw blood splatter, and that Lady Lin also passed out. Li Kui hurriedly ordered Mrs. Hua.Luo Xiaozhi helped Mrs. Lin back to the palace, and ordered "Tall Leopard" Wang Xiong and "Money Leopard" Yang Sen to carry Lin Feng's body to the back of Liangshan for burial.

When Li Kui returned to his room, he was depressed, and suddenly remembered something, and stomped his feet with joy, saying, "How can I be so confused that I forgot this important matter!" In the past, there was a poem praising Mrs. Lin: Li Kui suddenly remembered something, and immediately called someone to invite "Shenxing Taiwei" Dai Bao; after a while, Dai Bao came.Li Kui said: "I almost forgot one big thing. My Liangshan veteran, the 'red-haired ghost' Liu Tang, is still making a living in the kingdom of fame and fortune, serving as a martial arts instructor. Shi Qian, the 'drum on the flea' may be in the kingdom of merchants. You might as well run away again. Invite these two veterans to Mount Liang." After that, he called Xiao Qiuping and asked her to write two letters for Dai Bao to take care of.

But it is said that Lei Zhen, the "tiger into the cloud", was ordered by Li Kui to go to the reverse country to find out the truth. He crossed the river and arrived at a hotel called Zhaoyingdian, which was a stronghold of the Liangshan uprising army.The owner of the shop, "Midnight Flower" Sun Yanniang, was in charge of inquiring about the truth and accepting them into the group.Sun Yanniang would shoot letters to Liang Shanshui Village every time the heavenly soldiers invaded and suppressed or the descendants of Liangshan defected. This "tiger into the clouds" Lei Zhen and Sun Yanniang are very congenial on weekdays, they have long been in love with each other, so Lei Zhen went to talk to her when he came down from the mountain.

Sun Yanniang was very happy to see Lei Zhen's arrival, and quickly served food and wine.Lei Zhen was greedy for alcohol, drank three bowls in a row, became very drunk all of a sudden, and told Sun Yanniang about his visit to the Inversion Kingdom.Walls have ears, his words were being heard by a female drinker next door, that person was Ding Xiaoxia.It turned out that since Bai Taohua and Ding Xiaoxia were driven away by Li Kui, they had nowhere to look for, so they went to the reverse country.Na Yutangchun and Gao Lishi had heard of their names, so they were very happy, and immediately asked them to be the instructors of the imperial army. Na Ding Xiaoxia admired the scenery of the Upside-Down Country and felt bored, so he went to the countryside alone to relax, and entered the hotel owned by Sun Yanniang. It happened that Lei Zhen came to visit and heard the real story.Nading Xiaoxia Fu said: "I only heard that Xiaoliang Mountain is near here. Chen Hongbo and that nigger think they voted for Xiaoliang Mountain. It seems that Xiaoliang Mountain's troops are going to attack the Reversing Kingdom." Thinking of this, he ran away, rushed ahead of Lei Zhen, returned to the Upside Down Country and hurriedly reported the matter to Yu Tangchun, Gao Lishi, Bai Taohua and others. These people were shocked when they heard it, and Yutangchun said: "If Liangshan's army and horses come, it will be more or less ominous, so hurry up and prepare for the battle." In the dark night, Yutangchun closed the gate of the city and led his troops to patrol and guard; he also sent Ding Xiaoxia to guard the place. The east gate is waiting for the arrival of the Liangshan spies.Gao Lishi and Baitaohua also urgently trained their troops, built high walls, connected the waters to protect the city, and searched for food for the people. How did Lei Zhen know it, when he slowly came to the east gate of the city, he was seen by Ding Xiaoxia, but after hearing an order, hundreds of female soldiers swarmed up, Lei Zhen was outnumbered and captured alive. When Yutangchun saw that the Liangshan spies had been caught, he immediately interrogated Gao Lishi and Ding Xiaoxia. That Lei Zhen was a man, no matter how soft or hard he was, he just didn't recruit.Yutangchun had no choice but to put him in a shackle and put him in death row. The white peach blossom suggested to Yutangchun: "Why don't you plant a lot of mines and gunpowder around the city gate. If Liangshan men and horses come, you can twist the mechanism and catch them all in one go." Yutangchun sent three thousand guests to various parts of the city to guard against Liangshan spies. At this time, the "Sanzhanghong" lady entered the city, came to a tavern, ordered food and wine, and drank herself. It happened that Yutangchun's guest also came to drink in this hotel. The guest used to be Zhuang Ding of the family village. He recognized the girl and knew that she was in Liangshan, so he followed her. The girl didn't notice that she came to the street, and after walking for a while, she finally found out. So she avoided an alley, and the doorman called a few more times, and then followed her.Seeing that she couldn't get rid of it, the young lady simply walked back; the doormen drew out their waist knives.The little girl rushed up a few steps, pulled out the flying chain, and hit two doormen in a row. Gao Lishi was on patrol over there. Hearing the news, he pulled out a dart and threw it at her. The dart hit his left leg and he rolled over and fell to the ground.The doormen rushed forward and tied her up, and Gao Lishi put her in death row. On the third day, Zhang Xiaoting also came to the city, avoided the alleys, and arrested a patrolling soldier. Knowing that Lei Zhen and Xiaoniang had been arrested, she asked about the situation in the city. east of the city.But at this time the gate of the city was closed, and the whole city was under martial law and searched.Zhang Xiaoting hid behind the battlements until late at night, quietly jumped over the city wall alone, and hurried to the riverside, Li Huang, Zhang Wei, Zhang Zong and others took her to the Liangshan Juyi Hall. Then Li Kui and Wu asked about the situation, and immediately beat the drums, and all the heroes gathered for a while.Wu Weidao: "The commanders of the navy, Li Huang, Zhang Wei, and Yuan Xiaojiao, prepared ships to carry the troops and horses. Guan Mai led 500 soldiers to ambush in the west of the reverse city, Hu Yanyu led 500 soldiers to ambush the city south, and Qin Liang led 500 soldiers to ambush the north of the city. , Dong Bo led five hundred soldiers to ambush the east of the city, heard the trumpets, and attacked the city together. "Miao Suanzi" Jiang Ai entered the city and took control of the gunpowder office in the east city, "Wolf Fighting General" Li Yong took control of the gunpowder office in the west city, and "Little Jiegan" Mu Qiu is in charge of the North City office, and 'Short Life Liulang' Shi Jun is in charge of the South City office." Because Li Kui, Chen Hongbo, Luo Xiaozhi, Yu Meiren and others knew Yu Tangchun, Wu Wei invited them to guard the village.Wu Wei ordered Gongsun Ying, Chao Zhe, Hua Fengchun, Zhu Wen, Lu Weiwei, Guo Yanyan, Xu Sheng, Shi Qing, Wu Song, Zhang Xiaoting, Jiang Ai, Yang Sen, Mu Qiu, Li Yong, Shi Jun, and Princess Jinzhi. The hero, dressed up as various characters, took advantage of the daylight to walk to the upside-down country. The sky was bright, and a group of people came yelling from the east avenue of the inverted country. The leader was a fortune-teller, next to him was a Taoist priest, and behind them were people pushing carts, carrying burdens, selling meat, selling fish, and singing songs. Those who sell knives, those who set up stalls, and those who want arrows all flock to the east gate of the city.The guarding sergeant refused to let them enter the city at first, but the few people who were carrying the carts couldn't help but make noise and force their way in.The sergeant had no choice but to send someone to report Yutangchun. The fortune-teller and some merchants went straight to the center of the city, followed by the man pushing the cart; some knife sellers scattered in all directions, some singers rushed to the death row, and the rest made noise. They all came to the Upside Down Palace.
