Baodu Mountain borders the North China Plain to the east and the Taihang Peaks to the west. One peak protrudes, majestic and majestic, surrounded by cliffs. From a distance, it looks like a giant Buddha lying on his back, with his features and features. When you reach the top of the mountain, you will see a flat, flat, and strange landscape. Looking away, you will see lush vegetation, clouds, mountains and mist, making you feel like a paradise.

As Zhu Biao walked along, his thoughts were swirling. He felt that it was no wonder that Han Xin chose this place to station his troops and defeat the Zhao State in a last-ditch battle. From a distance, Baodu Mountain seems steep and steep. Only when you are inside the mountain can you take a closer look. There are many mountains all around. The ancient trees are towering, the top of the mountain is flat and flat, and there are hundreds of acres of fertile fields. It is indeed an excellent natural place for garrisoning troops.

When Zhu Biao and his party entered the stronghold, a young man had already gone up the mountain to report the situation to Tang Bin, the leader of the stronghold in Baodu Mountain. He saw that this man was more than seven feet tall, with piercing eyes, eyebrows flying into his temples, and a slim waist. Arms, with a somewhat scholarly air, was standing in front of the village gate with eager anticipation. He saw Wen Zhongrong and Cui Ye leading Zhu Biao and his party into the village, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet them.

"I have long admired the reputation of Lord Taishan for his unparalleled benevolence and righteousness. I have never had the chance to meet him. Today I see his honourable face, which is a comfort to my life." Tang Bin pushed the golden mountain towards Zhu Biao and bowed down like a jade pillar.

Zhu Biao hurriedly stretched out his hand to support Tang Bin, and said with a smile on his face: "The name of Tang Bin, the three outstanding warriors of Pudong, has been heard by Zhu for a long time."

After hearing this, Tang Bin felt a burst of bitterness in his heart. He was originally an officer in Pudong, and he was brave enough to be worthy of all men. Together with the big sword - Guan Sheng, Jing Muyan - Hao Siwen, he was regarded as Pudong. The three heroes, however, were framed by local powerful men. They killed their enemies in a rage and ended up living in exile.

"But I no longer dare to compare myself to the three heroes of Pudong, which makes my two brothers lose their reputation." Tang Bin's expression darkened and he said with a gloomy look.

Seeing that he was depressed, Zhu Biao patted his arm and said sternly: "Brother Tang Bin, please don't feel sorry for yourself. He just killed an enemy in anger. He wants to harm you, but you can't resist. How can there be such a thing in this world?" It makes sense; at that level, you two, Hao, are heroes, and brother, your achievements will be no less good in the future."

"Young Master's words made me feel like a sudden rain after a long drought. To be honest, Young Master, after killing that enemy last year, I wanted to go to Shandong to seek refuge with Young Master. By chance, I met Cui Ye and Wen Zhongrong. Brothers of loyalty meet here at Baodu Mountain." Tang Bin's expression changed and he sighed meaningfully.

Zhu Biao smiled slightly when he heard this. According to the history of Water Margin, Tang Bin should have killed his enemy after Song Jiang entered Liangshan and Liangshan made such a big fuss, so he thought of going to Liangshan to drop grass. When passing by Baodu Mountain, he met When they arrived at Cui Ye, Wen Zhongrong blocked the way. Tang Bin easily defeated the two of them with one against two, and was invited by them to be the leader of Baodu Village.

I was a butterfly that flapped its wings ten years ago. Although it was unintentional, the fate of some heroes in the Water Margin changed. Just like Tang Bin, he killed his enemy in advance, but he was thinking about it. He went to Shandong to seek refuge, only to be brought back on track by history, and he still became the leader of Baodu Mountain.

Zhu Biao took Tang Bin's arm, smiled and said: "Brother, you didn't come to look for me last year, but today Zhu made a special trip to look for you."

Tang Bin heard this, looked at Zhu Biao's expression, and knew there was something in his words. He looked at Wen Zhongrong beside him, and when he saw him nodding slightly, he led Zhu Biao and his party into the stronghold to talk, and ordered his men. Kill pigs and sheep and prepare a banquet.

About an hour later, in the Juyi Hall, after three rounds of wine and five dishes, Tang Bin retreated to the left and right, cupped his hands towards Zhu Biao and said: "Young master came to Baodu Mountain to find a certain brother and three people, but it is very important. ?”

Zhu Biao heard the words and said seriously: "There is indeed something. Before I say it, please forgive me for being presumptuous. Zhu Biao still has a few questions to ask."

"Young Master, please ask a question. The three of us will tell you everything we know." Tang Bin responded first, and Wen Zhongrong and Cui Ye on the side also nodded.

Seeing the sincere faces of the three of them, Zhu Biao pondered for a moment and then said: "I just heard Brother Wen Zhongrong's words at the foot of the mountain. That Tian Hu has come to you and the three of you for reunions many times, but I don't know what you are thinking now?"

After saying this, Tang Bin frowned slightly, not knowing how to answer. Now the tiger in the field is powerful. Although it has not yet broken the state capital, its thoughts are just like Sima Zhao's. Everyone in Hebei Green Forest knows that that person He had repeatedly sent people to Baodu Mountain to summon him, but he was afraid that he was running out of patience. In the past few days, Tang Bin thought about it, fearing that he would follow in the footsteps of other disobedient cottages that perished, so he was ready to accept it; but now Zhu Biao's arrival has indeed given him a chance. The turning point brought about by things.

Wen Zhongrong, who was on the side, saw that Tang Bin was hesitating, so he took the lead and said: "That guy Tian Hu has a perverse temperament and does things unscrupulously. He has no good intentions in recruiting me to Bao Dushan, but he just wants me to be his pawn in the future rebellion." That’s all, it’s just that the situation is stronger than the person. In the past, Brother Tang Bin just resisted hard. If there is another way out, I am not willing to work with that guy."

After Wen Zhongrong finished speaking, he quietly kicked Cui Ye under the table. This usually straightforward man showed a rare understanding. He drank a bowl of wine, stretched his neck and said straightly: "Yimou's I mean, that guy Tian Hu is just a lowly guy who flaunts his power as soon as he gains power. Now that Mr. Taishan is here, why don’t we all surrender to Mr. Taishan, so that guy Tian Hu doesn’t even dare to show his teeth.”

After Cui Ye finished speaking, Zhu Biao and Xu Guanzhong looked at each other meaningfully and smiled meaningfully. They did not say anything, just waiting for Tang Bin to speak.

After a while, Tang Bin stood up, bowed to Zhu Biao, and said: "The Tianhu is now so powerful that all the villages in the green forests of Hebei that have not surrendered have been wiped out by it. I dare not deceive the young master. If the young master does not come today, Maybe tomorrow I won't be able to hold on any longer. If you don't give up now, Bao Dushan is willing to surrender to you and serve you as a dog and horse."

When Wen Zhongrong and Cui Ye saw this, they also quickly prostrated themselves on the ground and said, "I would like to join the young master to serve you as a dog and horse."

Zhu Biao raised a smile at the corner of his mouth, looked at Xu Guanzhong, and quickly convinced Tang Bin and the others, and said sincerely: "The three brothers are so loyal, but they make Zhu ashamed, so he said to the three brothers, Zhu This is Baodu Mountain, but there is a big event, and I want to use the mountain stronghold."

"Young Master, I have an order. The three brothers are determined to move forward to the death. They will not dodge the sword. If they are loyal, they will be killed by both men and gods." After hearing this, Tang Bin and the other three swore an oath.

Zhu Biao heard the words and said bluntly: "The three brothers are all like-minded people, and they don't hide or hide anything, so I asked Guan Zhongxu to make it clear to the three brothers. If there is anything inappropriate, the three brothers can also speak out."

The golden crow fell to the ground, splashing thousands of rays of rays of light, and Baodu Mountain was covered with a golden layer. More wine and meat were added. Zhu Biao, Xu Guanzhong, Tang Bin, Wen Zhongrong and Cui Ye from Baodu Mountain drank and talked at night by holding candles.
