Qingfeng Village. Qinbei Pavilion
"Huazhi Village and Qingfeng Town are so depressed now, I'm afraid they will inevitably be reprimanded by the superiors."
Lin Chong looked at the deserted Qingfeng Town and said, Qingfeng Town was not like this the last time he passed by. Later, he heard from Sun Lei that after getting rid of Liu Gao, Qingfeng Town became extremely lively.
"Hey, Qingfeng Village is too difficult to be a Zhizhai."
Hua Rong sighed and said.
"Ever since Chao Gai of Jeju robbed the birthday card and fled to Qingzhou, occupying Baihu Mountain and Luocao, the originally peaceful Qingzhou became turbulent. The four mountains usually competed for territory and plundered. When the government came, they joined forces, but the two In three months, western Qingzhou has been in chaos."
"Now the four mountains are distributed around Qingfeng Town. Qingzhou Prefecture sent troops to destroy them twice, but the thieves were repelled by relying on the terrain. Now they have given up on suppressing the thieves and just let me keep the trade routes open in Qingfeng Town. But Qingfeng Town only has a few hundred villages. Soldiers, it is still difficult to defend ourselves, how can we keep the trade routes open?"
Hua Rong said helplessly that Murong Yanda, the magistrate of Qingzhou, didn't know how to use troops at all, he only forced his subordinates. He, the magistrate of Qingzhou, had only been happy for a few days before he returned to the original state.
"Then Qingzhou's military commander Qin Ming is also quite capable. If he comes, he won't make the thieves around him so arrogant, right?"
Lin Chong asked doubtfully. He had fought against Qin Ming last time. With Qin Ming's martial arts, no one in Qingzhou could match him, so he would not be so passive.
"That Murong Yanda is a timid man. He suppressed Qin Ming and refused to leave the city. He said he was afraid that thieves would attack Qingzhou Mansion."
Hua Rong shook his head.
"Qingzhou Mansion is the state capital. The city is tall and tall. There are only three to five hundred people in each of these mountains in Qingzhou. Together they are not enough to defeat the state capital."
Lin Chong also shook his head and said, Murong Yanda is too timid. Is Qingzhou Mansion so easily breached? The average small village only has a few hundred minions, and its weapons are only some guns and sticks, with no armor and stomach, and it is impossible to have siege equipment. How could Qingzhou Prefecture be breached if it was on guard?
"Huazhi Village, why not consider going to Liangshan?"
Lin Chong looked at Hua Rong and said, "It doesn't make sense to continue to stay in Qingfeng Town like this. The court attaches great importance to taxation, and almost all relies on taxation to evaluate official promotions. Qingfeng Town is like this now, and Murong Yanda doesn't send troops to help. Next year, the blame will definitely be placed on Hua Rong.
There is another thing that Lin Chong is worried about. Sun Lei is a famous wanted criminal in the world. Once he marries Hua Chan, how can Hua Rong be considered a stronghold?
"I think so too. When my little sister gets married, I will go to Liangshan too."
Hua Rong picked up the wine glass and drank it down in one gulp. Recently, Murong Yanda had written to him many times to reprimand him for his failure in suppressing bandits. He knew that he could no longer be a stronghold.
"Huazhi Village is the right choice. My brother has always meant this. He is just afraid that Huazhi Village will not agree and does not want to force it. Brothers have been waiting eagerly on Liangshan for a long time!"
Lin Chong said with a smile.
"By the way, my brother has been doing well recently. Last time I heard that he went to Jiangnan and made a big fuss. He also had a conflict with the Mingjiao there. Later, he also fought against the Jiankang Prefecture and the Jiangzhou Army? What happened?"
Hua Rong looked at Lin Chong and asked, he could only hear a rough idea in Qingfeng Village.
Lin Chong smiled and told the details.
"It turns out that something happened to brother Pang Wanchun. Fortunately, he got there in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."
Hua Rong sighed.
"Is my brother in Liangshan now?"
Hua Rong looked in the direction of Liangshan and asked. He has always been yearning for Jianghu, but because of his status as a Zhizhai, he has missed too many wonderful things. Now that he has made up his mind to leave, he can't wait in his heart.
"We should leave for Tokyo in the next two days."
Lin Chong suddenly darkened his face and said, he brought his wife to help Sun Lei recruit him at this time. The purpose was to take his wife away from Liangshan. If his wife knew that Sun Lei was going to Tokyo, why would he beg to go with him? His wife had asked him more than once Talking about my father.
"Going to Tokyo?"
Hua Rong was shocked when he heard that going to Tokyo as Sun Lei would be extremely dangerous.
…
Liangshan Park.
Sun Lei took Lu Zhishen, Xiao Jiasui, Gongsun Sheng, Tang Bin, and Cao Zheng to bid farewell to everyone and embarked on a journey to Tokyo.
"Why do I always feel like I've forgotten something?"
While walking on the road, Sun Lei rubbed his forehead and always felt that something was wrong, as if something was missing.
"Brother, we have brought everything we should bring. We also bought a guide (road guide) from Hebei Road. I shouldn't have forgotten anything."
Cao Zheng patted the baggage on the horse and said that in order to enter Tokyo smoothly this time, they specially bought several vouchers for Hebei Province. With these, they would not be suspected when they crossed the state.
"It's not a question of justification."
Sun Lei shook his head and said, the things he needs to bring have been prepared a long time ago, and there will be no problems with these things. In this era of inconvenient communication, even if he stayed in Tokyo for half a year, the Tokyo City Defense would not be able to go to the local government to check the reasons. true and false.
In the Northern Song Dynasty, commerce was prosperous and merchants were prevalent. There were countless merchants selling goods in the world. As the capital of the country, Tokyo was a must-go place for merchants. Every day, there were not even 100,000 but 80,000 people crossing the road in and out of the country. Why? Maybe go to various places to check one by one?
"elder brother!"
Suddenly a broken gong sounded, and everyone looked in shock at Li Kui who suddenly jumped out from behind the tree in front of them. At this time, Li Kui was holding a team of axes and proudly blocking the road and watching everyone.
"Tieniu, are you here to cut the path?"
Cao Zheng was startled at first, and then joked that Li Kui looked like a cutter.
"I'm just telling you why we missed something. The iron bull didn't bark today!"
Sun Lei looked at Li Kui in front of him speechlessly. Ever since he said he wanted to go to Tokyo, this guy has been talking about going with him every day, which made his ears tingle. But he didn't see or listen to Li Kui when he set out today. Call.
"You are a bold thief who dares to do such a thing in Liangshanbo. Let's see if the Sa family doesn't take you!"
Lu Zhishen also smiled and looked at Li Kui who suddenly appeared and said.
"When did I cut the path? I'm waiting for my brother here!"
Li Kui saw Lu Zhishen approaching in an unkind manner and quickly explained.
"Are you still reasonable? I asked you to stay in Liangshan and you went down the mountain privately. What crime should you do?"
Sun Lei glared at Li Kui and said, this guy is really brave. He went down the mountain privately without taking him. If this kind of thing is allowed to happen, Liangshan will be in chaos sooner or later.
"Master Lu, you are an infantry general. What should I do if my deputy general disobeys military orders?"
Sun Lei looked at Lu Zhishen and said.
"At least two hundred military sticks will be used!"
Lu Zhishen stepped forward and grabbed Li Kui and said.
"Two hundred military sticks!"
Li Kui rolled his eyes when he heard this. Two hundred military sticks are not so easy to take. If this was really a beating, everyone would be beaten to death.
"Want to run?"
Lu Zhishen held Li Kui down. The guy wanted to run away when he heard the military stick.
"Brother, I was wrong. Why don't I go back?"
Li Kui looked at Sun Lei and begged for mercy.
"You come and leave as soon as you say?"
Sun Lei looked at Li Kui angrily. This guy is really used to being undisciplined and has no rules at all.
"Brother, I was really wrong!"
Li Kui couldn't break free, so he could only lower his head and beg for mercy.
"Tieniu, how dare you leave the village without permission!"
Jiao Ting's shout rang out, and he was running from a distance, obviously chasing Li Kui.
"You're so shameless, you're always chasing after me!"
Li Kui looked at Jiao Ting and complained again. Today he tried his best to get rid of Jiao Ting and go down the mountain. Unexpectedly, Jiao Ting still chased him.
"Now that we're here, let's go on the road together, but remember the iron ox army stick first, and you'll still have to fight it when you come back."
Sun Lei looked at Li Kui and Jiao Ting and said, "They have already gone down the mountain. It's not a problem to rush back. Anyway, there are a few more blank vouchers. Just fill in your name."
