Chapter 225 Liangshan F4 Debut
Throughout history, the efficiency of government affairs has been low, if not entirely inefficient.
Take the amnesty as an example. After Zhang Shuye took office, he first contacted Chen Xizhen secretly. After the two sides reached a rough consensus, he wrote a letter to the court.
It would take at least two months to wait for the court to agree to the amnesty and then send officials to discuss the matter.
It may even take a year or two.
After such a long time, it is inevitable that something big will happen.
When Cao Jie received the news, he arranged the tasks and assembled the troops that day and took action at night.
Although hiding during the day and working at night delayed some time, in terms of efficiency, no organization was more efficient than his.
One is efficient and the other is inefficient, which destined Chen Xizhen's surrender to be just a daydream.
By the time the imperial edict of amnesty arrived, it was already too late.
Cao Jie took over Chen Xizhen's position as the main general and waited for the result calmly.
Chen Xizhen wanted to resist, but he had to face his own daughter Chen Liqing, as well as "Tower-Bearing Heavenly King" Chao Gai, "Red-haired Ghost" Liu Tang, "Living Yama" Ruan Xiaoqi, "Shameless" Jiao Ting...
Of the few generals left under his command, Gou Huan and Gou Ying were only of Disha strength, and Luan Tingfang was far inferior to his brother Luan Tingyu. They could not last more than a few rounds before being disarmed and captured by the Liangshan heroes.
"hey-hey!"
"My father-in-law!"
"How about we sit down and have a cup of tea... and chat about the future?"
Chen Xizhen's eyes rolled up. If his daughter hadn't stopped him, he would have really turned hostile, lost his temper, and risked his life.
"For Li Qing's sake, I won't argue with you."
Can't beat it, can't beat it at all.
Last year in Jiangzhou, he was still in his prime and was controlled. Now he is half-invalid, how can he challenge him?
Chen Xi is really a stubborn old man, not a stupid old man.
At this time, on the battlefield outside Teng County.
The brothers Zhu Yongqing and Zhu Wannian are completely screwed.
Zhu Wannian's side, it was the heroes from the Three Mountains of Qingzhou who came to plan.
Lu Zhishen's three hundred monk soldiers, Qin Ming's one hundred cavalrymen, Hua Rong's two hundred archers, together with other miscellaneous forces, there are about a thousand people.
In the future, these soldiers will be the main force in rebuilding Yuanbi Village.
On Zhu Yongqing's side, Gongsun Sheng was leading the charge, and Fan Rui was using palm thunder to clear the way. Who were following behind them?
The first to be affected is Liangshan F4.
"Black Whirlwind" Li Kui wielded two axes, "God of Death" Bao Xu wielded a sword, "Eight-Armed Nezha" Xiang Chong and "Flying Monkey King" Li Gun each waved a barbarian shield for protection, and behind them followed five hundred barbarian shield rolling knife players.
The four of them cooperated with each other, like a ball of fire, rolling over from the ground, killing the bandits and sending them fleeing in all directions.
Zhu Yongqing and his generals fought and retreated, and had to escape for their lives.
Li Kui rushed straight into the bandit army, knocked over the young general Yunlong's horse, threw him down, and used the momentum to chop off his head with an axe.
One of the thirty-six thunder generals, he was the reincarnation of a boy named Yun who was pushed down to earth by the Qinghe Thunder Palace with his mighty spirit. However, he died before he could accomplish his mission, and his ghost went straight into the sky.
A faint star in the sky flickered for a moment, then went out and disappeared, no longer visible.
"Who else?"
Li Kui was in a killing spree, his bloody mouth opened wide, a bloody storm swept through, black winds blew around his body, and he was filled with demonic energy.
When the Yuanbi Village bandits saw this, they were so scared that they pissed themselves and shit themselves, and they no longer had the will to fight.
"Wow ha ha ha ha……"
Li Kui took a long step forward, and swung his two axes like wheels. The surging black wind rolled around his body, turning into a whirlwind.
The more they killed, the more ferocious that black and red whirlwind became. It was like killing gods and Buddhas.
Li Kui in this state was frightening not only Jiao Ting who could easily knock him down a dozen times, but even the "Devil of Chaos" Fan Rui who was performing palm thunder.
"hiss!"
"Tie Niu usually looks honest and simple, but how come he becomes such a ferocious and terrifying demon after he goes to the battlefield and kills people? He is even more evil than me, the devil of chaos!"
Fan Rui took a few looks and saw that this group of killers were about to make a great contribution, so he immediately focused his mind, grabbed a handful of gunpowder particles, wrapped them with his thoughts, tightly bound them in his spirit, and then threw them behind Zhu Yongqing like a stone.
"boom!"
Flames shot up into the sky and thunder roared.
Zhu Yongqing, the thunder general who was the reincarnation of the True Lord of the Youwang Division of the Xiyuan Thunder Palace, was unexpectedly blown up by the palm thunder without any ability to fight back.
Taking unconventional methods will not lead to longevity.
But when used on the battlefield, its power is far greater than those of the righteous methods.
Fan Rui was extremely happy and didn't worry about anything else.
He knew that with the presence of "Dragon in the Clouds" Gongsun Sheng and countless powerful gunpowder spells, who could do anything to him unless those old monsters in the mountains came out? !
"Brother Tieniu, it feels so good!"
The armor on Bao Xu's body had long been stained red with blood, and with that ferocious face, he looked like a ghost that had escaped from the gates of hell.
Although he did not generate visions like Li Kui, he was also invincible. He swung the horse-slaying sword in his hand like a windmill, and opened a path for the five hundred barbarian knife rollers behind him like a tank.
"Brothers, kill slowly..."
Xiang Chong and Li Gun barely kept up with the progress of these two killer gods.
The Liangshan F4 combination, in their first performance, was simply a killer weapon for the infantry, a bulldozer that cleared out the small soldiers.
Xiang Chong and Li Gun both used round shields as weapons, while Li Kui and Bao Xu were both killing gods who often went into battle shirtless and carried away by everything else.
The combination of these four people perfectly avoids the shortcomings of Li Kui and Bao Xu.
Li Kui's strengths of being good at melee combat and strong ability to charge into battle formations were brought into full play.
In the original novel, after this group was formed, they made great contributions, whether it was defeating Tong Guan twice, defeating Gao Qiu three times, or conquering the Liao Kingdom.
The F4 group's peak battle was Liangshan's most difficult battle against Fang La.
At the gate of Changzhou, the Liangshan army encountered Fang La's privy councilor Lu Shinang, who had 12 commanders under him, known as the 12 divine generals.
The 500-man vanguard army led by Li Kui and his four men encountered a thousand men led by Gao Keli and Zhang Jinren, who were under Lu Shinang.
Gao Keli and Zhang Jinren had just killed Liangshan heroes Han Tao and Peng Qi in the battle the day before, and they were very proud of themselves at this moment.
There were also spies in the Song army who recognized the two men and told Li Kui that they were the murderers of Generals Han and Peng.
At this time, enemies are very discerning when they meet. Li Kui did not answer, but picked up the axe and killed him. After seeing this, Bao Xu also hurriedly called Xiang Chong and Li Gun to rush out.
The enemy general was caught off guard and was killed by Li Kui. Then, the four of them were so excited that they killed all 1,000 people in the enemy's battle array and defeated them all. In the end, 300 to 400 of the 1,000 people were killed by Li Kui and his four men, and the rest fled into the city in a panic.
The strength of the F4 group is evident from this.
"Wow ha ha ha ha……"
Li Kui laughed happily, his eyes were bloodshot, and the black and red whirlwind whistling around him made even Bao Xu, Xiang Chong and Li Gun feel a little frightened.
I was afraid that he would get into a killing spree and kill me with an axe!
“Brother Tieniu?!”
"Kill, kill, kill!"
Li Kui licked the blood on his lips, pointed the axe in his hand at Zhu Yongqing who was held by the palm thunder, and shouted: "Follow me and kill him. Take his head and give it to me..."
