"My younger brother also thinks that my elder brother's guess is good. Although Gao Qiu is a rogue and has no military knowledge, he is in charge of the three yamen and has countless subordinates. He will definitely not send troops here with such a big fanfare. Qinbei Pavilion"
Wen Huanzhang also said, Gao Qiu sent Hu Yanzhuo to attack Liangshan with such a big fanfare. Didn't this give Liangshan a chance to react? Hu Yanzhuo wanted to mobilize troops from Runing County, Chenzhou, and Yingzhou. They couldn't gather them in less than half a month. The news was obviously released so early on purpose.
"Brother, there are many military states near Jingdong. Will you mobilize soldiers and horses there?"
Tang Bin said.
"That's not clear, but I sent people to pay close attention to the mobilization of troops and horses in various places in Jingdong."
Sun Lei nodded. There were many state capitals around Liangshanbo, so he had to guard against them.
"What about Song Jiang? What do you think?"
Sun Lei asked again.
"Brother, this matter is even more strange. My younger brother doesn't know much about Song Jiang, but he is just a small official sent by the prefect of Jeju to Tokyo to ask for help and report. He probably has never met Cai Jing, the grand master. How could he bump into him? And he was demoted. Jiangzhou, it really doesn’t make sense.”
Wen Huanzhang shook his head and said that he didn't know Song Jiang, but he knew a lot about the affairs of the imperial court. How could He De, a subordinate official in Song Jiang, collide with Cai Jing.
"Brother, this Song Jiang is the most smooth-tongued. He always greets everyone with a smile and is polite and considerate. How could he collide with Cai Jing? Moreover, Cai Jiu, the magistrate of Jiangzhou, is Cai Jing's son. Cai Jing's disciples have relatives all over the world. He just wants to There’s no need to kill someone with a borrowed knife.”
Xiao Jiasui knew about Song Jiang. From the fact that Song Jiang came to redeem the prisoners of Jezhou, it can be seen that this person is very deep in the city, very tolerant, and not the kind of person who will offend others. Moreover, Cai Jing's choice of Jiangzhou is also very problematic.
"It seems like he has some ulterior secrets with Cai Jing."
Sun Lei touched his chin and said that because of his appearance, Song Jiang's fate seemed to have shifted. Song Jiang, who originally rebelled against Zhao'an, skipped the step of rebellion.
After all, Cai Jing still doesn't understand Jianghu. There are countless people in Jianghu who have committed crimes and been exiled. This kind of thing is too familiar.
"Brother, Zhang Shun is from Jiangzhou, why don't you ask him."
Deng Fei said.
Soon Zhang Shun was called over, and Sun Lei asked about his trip to Jiangzhou.
"Song Jiang? Is this Song Gongming from Shandong Shiyu? Did he go to Jiangzhou?"
Zhang Shun looked surprised after hearing this.
"There are some good men in Jiangzhou. There is a dean in Jiangzhou Prison City, Mr. Dai, who is known as the magical Taibao. It is said that he can travel thousands of miles in a day. There are also people like Li Jun, the Hunjianglong on the river, who are also tricks. It’s amazing, there is a town in Jieyang in Jiangbei, and there is a bully named Mu in the town..."
Zhang Shun introduced the situation in Jiangzhou.
…
Tokyo, Taiwei Mansion.
"Huang Wenbing, your plan is good!"
Gao Qiu looked at Huang Wenbing standing in front of him with a smile. He was more and more satisfied with this follower who was working on a whim. Not only could he help him handle some government affairs, but he also had good strategies. He was really short of such people.
"This villain is just trying his best. Everything is decided by Taiwei Qiangang. The thief will definitely be wiped out. Sun Lei's head will be sent to him soon."
Huang Wenbing said with a smile.
"Ha ha!"
Gao Qiu laughed.
Gao Qiu originally thought of sending Hu Yanzhuo, Peng Hantao, and Peng Hantao to take troops and horses to annihilate Liangshanbo, but when he came back, Huang Wenbing said that a disturbance in the court would definitely alert the snake, and if the Liangshan bandits were prepared, the army would definitely be unable to do so. Return with success.
Gao Qiu thought it was the same thing, but if they didn't make trouble in the court, the court would not send troops to suppress the bandits at all, so Huang Wenbing suggested sending another army secretly. Hu Yanzhuo would attract the people of Liangshan with a big fanfare from the front, and the other army would directly attack the rear of Liangshan.
"This time, your plan to build the plank road secretly to infiltrate Chen Cang was a good one. Now that the Jeju Prefect has been transferred, there is a vacancy. I am going to protect you as the Jeju Prefect and help eliminate Sun Lei. You are willing to go!"
Gao Qiu looked at Huang Wenbing and said.
"I am willing. Thank you for the compliment. I will do my best to repay the kindness of the captain! Kill thieves for the country."
Huang Wenbing was overjoyed and hurriedly knelt down and begged for help. Being appointed as a magistrate meant that he once again entered the officialdom, and this time he had a strong backer.
"You first go to Jeju to find out who the thieves are. In addition, I have another person here that you can take with you secretly. I want to let those thieves taste the pain of losing a loved one."
Gao Qiu looked at Huang Wenbing and said with a sinister look on his face, it was time to use the chess pieces he had raised for a long time.
After Huang Wenbing left, Gao Qiu went directly to the White Tiger Festival Hall and summoned a group of commanders and privy officers to come to discuss important military matters. Not long after, officials from the three yamen arrived at the White Tiger Festival Hall and paid homage to Gao Qiu.
"Now Hu Yanzhuo is about to mobilize his troops. If the news cannot be blocked, the thieves must be prepared. I want to find a good general to quietly send troops to raid Liangshanbo. Can you recommend any good generals?"
Gao Qiu looked at everyone and asked. He had just taken over Sanya not long ago, and so far he had not recognized all the personnel, let alone the local generals.
Everyone looked at each other, some frowned, some were silent, but no one spoke.
"Captain, the young general recommends one person who will definitely be able to defeat the bandits in Liangshan."
An ugly-looking young general behind the Infantry Lieutenant came out of duty and saluted.
"you?"
Gao Qiu frowned when he saw the man. He recognized this man as Baoyi Xuanzan, the defense envoy of the Yamen. It wasn't that he was familiar with Xuanzan, but that Xuanzan was notoriously ugly in the Sanya and Privy Council, and was often talked about as a laughing stock.
Xuanzan was born with a face like the bottom of a pot, nostrils pointing upward, curly hair and a red beard, and a muscular figure of eight feet. He wields a strong sword and a strong mouth, and his martial arts skills are quite outstanding. Previously, he was a county horse in the palace, and people called him Chou Junma. Because he defeated a general in a row of arrows, the prince recruited him as his son-in-law. But who would have thought that the princess thought he was ugly and died out of hatred. Therefore, he cannot be reused and can only be used as a military envoy to protect justice.
"The young general had an acquaintance in his hometown. He was a descendant of the direct son of the righteous and brave King Wu'an in the third third of the Han Dynasty. His surname was Guan Mingsheng, and his appearance was similar to that of King Wu'an. He also wielded a Qinglong Yanyue Sword, which was known as Dadao Guan Sheng. Now in When Pu Dong was inspecting, he surrendered to his subordinates. This man had read military books at a young age, was proficient in martial arts, and had courage that no man could match. If he was invited with gift coins and worshiped as a general, he could clear the water stronghold and wipe out the madmen. Protect the security of the country. People, it is up to this person to open up the territory and expand the territory. Begging for Jun's decree."
Xuan Zan bowed to Gao Qiu. He and Guan Sheng were childhood friends. He knew Guan Sheng's abilities, but he couldn't reuse them because he didn't have the connections. Now that he had the opportunity, he would naturally recommend him. He was just wiping out a bandit den, so what difficulties could there be? of?
"Okay, this is it!"
Gao Qiu was overjoyed when he heard the words of praise and immediately agreed.
"Go and tell Guan Sheng that I specially promoted him to be the commander of troops and horses, and ordered him to mobilize 10,000 Hebei defenders. After Hu Yanzhuo is in place, he will surprise Liangshanbo! You will be a deputy general in the army. Duan Chang, you prepare food, grass and weapons. !”
Gao Qiu looked at Xuan Zan and Infantry Lieutenant Duan Chang (in the Northern Song Dynasty, the commander of the capital could be honored as Tai Lieutenant) and said.
"Today's matter must be kept secret. If it is leaked, I will not let you go!"
Gao Qiu glanced around at the people present and said coldly, but the people present did not dare to say anything.
