In the Juyi Hall, the banquet was served, and Sun Lei personally poured a glass of wine for everyone who returned. Qinbei Pavilion
"Brothers, thank you for your hard work, let's do it!"
Sun Lei raised his glass and invited.
"Dry!"
Everyone also raised their glasses together.
“Good wine!”
The spicy and mellow distilled wine made Ma Ling's eyes light up. As a northerner, he liked spirits very much, but he had never heard of such delicious wine.
"If you like, Taoist Ma, you can have a few more drinks."
Sun Lei said with a smile, you can get as much wine as you want.
"Brother, I heard there is news about my brother."
Tang Bin and Hao Siwen hurried into Juyi Hall and asked.
"Sit down first."
When Sun Lei saw Tang Bin and Hao Siwen coming, he motioned for them to sit down first.
"Brother, my brother is going to invade with his troops?"
Tang Bin directly guessed the result. In fact, it was not difficult to guess. Guan Sheng did not agree to go up the mountain and drop grass, so the only possibility for him to come to Liangshan was to lead troops to suppress it.
"I've guessed it all. Yes, Guan Sheng may have led his troops to sneak attack on our rear. He and Hu Yanzhuo were in front of us and one behind us. It should be Gao Qiu's poisonous plan."
Sun Lei looked at Tang Bin and Hao Siwen and said.
"Brother Guan is coming with troops!"
Hao Siwen's face changed drastically. Ever since Luocao, he had already prepared for the worst, but he never expected that things would happen so quickly. When he reached Liangshan, Guan Sheng came to kill him.
"Brother, leave this battle to my younger brother!"
Tang Bin knelt down on one knee and clasped his fists at Sun Lei and said solemnly that if brothers really wanted to kill each other, then he decided to face it himself and not make it difficult for other Liangshan brothers.
"Brother and younger brother are also willing to go! Let us understand the grievances of the three Pudong brothers ourselves."
Hao Siwen knew that Tang Bin alone was no match for Guan Sheng. As Tang Bin's brother and the deputy general of Liangshan Poma Army, he had to step forward.
Hearing these words, everyone present looked embarrassed. Tang Bin and Hao Siwen were fighting for Liangshan. It was difficult for others to take action. If others took action to kill Guan Sheng, Tang Bin and Hao Siwen would Siwen felt very sad, and everyone would feel even more sad if they saw Tang Bin and Hao Siwen die.
"Doesn't it mean that brothers fighting each other will hurt their relatives and make their enemies happy? The three heroes of Pudong are sworn brothers to Jinlan. They should work together on the battlefield. There is no way they can kill each other."
Sun Lei helped Tang Bin and Hao Siwen up and said that he could not agree to this matter and Liangshan's loyalty could not be lost.
"Brother, Brother Guan, he..."
Tang Bin and Hao Siwen were deeply moved, but they knew very well what Guan Sheng was like. Guan Sheng, who puts loyalty first, would never show mercy. They could not watch Guan Sheng kill his brothers on Liangshan Mountain.
"Don't worry, sit down and have a glass of wine. I'll come up with a solution. We have so many brothers on the mountain, why can't we come up with a good solution?"
Sun Lei poured a large bowl of wine for the two of them. Tang Bin and Hao Siwen were so excited at the moment that they had lost some judgment and had to calm down.
Tang Bin and Hao Siwen felt miserable and anxious. When they saw the wine, they naturally drank it in large gulps. The strong liquor entered their throats, and the alcohol paralyzed them in an instant.
"Brother, now the Sa family knows what it means to be vicious. He kills people with no problem, and has a big scar on his head. Eighteen years later, he is a good man again, but this heart-wrenching plot is so terrible."
Lu Zhishen drank a bowl of wine and said with red eyes that he was not afraid of death, nor was he afraid of killing people. He just wanted to be free and comfortable in his life. But the two incidents between Coach Zhang and Guan Sheng made him realize what helplessness is in the world.
"The Buddha said that the world is a sea of suffering. The sea of suffering is boundless and there is a shore when you turn back. But where is the shore when you turn back?"
Lu Zhishen put down the wine bowl, took off the sandalwood rosary beads from his neck and started chanting the Amitabha Sutra.
"I'm convinced. Can chanting sutras solve the problem?"
Sun Lei was speechless for a while.
"Sajia is chanting sutras to purify his mind, you don't understand!"
Lu Zhishen replied.
"Brother, I'm afraid this matter still needs to be resolved by brothers Tang Bin and Hao Siwen. If anyone else comes forward, Guan Sheng may not even want to talk."
Xu Guanzhong said, since Sun Lei didn't want to meet each other in war, he could only have a face-to-face interview and impress the other party with words, and the best ones to speak were Tang Bin and Hao Siwen.
"Does Military Master Xu have any idea?"
Sun Lei looked at Wen Huanzhang.
"There is a way. Just like when Cao Mengde defeated Liu Bei and besieged Guan Yu on the earth mountain. In the end, Guan Yu surrendered. It is better to follow the younger brother's plan. Defeat Guan Sheng with a plan and let him imitate his ancestors. This is for Guan Sheng. It shouldn’t be difficult to accept.”
Xu Guanzhong cupped his fists at Sun Lei.
"Commander Xu's method is good. It does not harm his life, but also saves his face. There are still reasons why he should not surrender! Wonderful!"
Sun Lei clapped his hands and praised Xu Guanzhong. This method is really good. Guan Sheng, the original author, also surrendered to Liangshan. He is not a person who swears to die. It is even easier to persuade Xu Guanzhong to imitate his ancestor Guan Yu.
"The military advisor has taken this matter seriously and ambushed Guan Sheng from all sides, so that he will be convinced of his defeat."
Sun Lei cupped his fists and said to Xu Guanzhong.
"My elder brother has an order, and my younger brother must do his best!"
Xu Guanzhong smiled and returned the courtesy.
Tang Bin and Hao Siwen next to them were also overjoyed after hearing this, and thanked Sun Lei and Xu Guanzhong. This not only saved the lives of both parties, but also preserved the loyalty of both parties. The good plan was too good for them.
"Military advisor, if you are given an order, I and I will not hesitate to do so!"
Tang Bin looked at Xu Guanzhong and said.
"Brothers, please wake up. It's not that serious. Let's make a good plan."
Xu Guanzhong helped the two of them up and said, Guan Sheng is a pure military general. If there are no powerful counselors around him, with Liangshan's current strength and favorable location, it is not too difficult to defeat Guan Sheng.
"Brother, look who is here."
Jiao Ting walked in from the outside with a smile, and behind him was Yan Qing dressed as a servant.
"Xiao Yi!"
Sun Lei shouted, Yan Qing looked so recognizable, he didn't expect to meet Yan Qing in Liangshan.
"Greetings, brother, congratulations on your great happiness!"
Yan Qing smiled and stepped forward to see the gift, and took out the gift from the bag. It was a pair of white jade unicorns.
"Xiao Yi, just come here. Why do you bring gifts? Hurry up and take a seat. I'll introduce you to you."
Sun Lei accepted the congratulatory gift with a smile, without any intention of refusing. Yan Qing was born in the house of Lu Junyi, the richest man in Hebei, so money naturally was not in his eyes. This white jade unicorn symbolized happiness and peace, so he naturally wanted to accept this beautiful meaning.
After some introductions, Yan Qing saw everyone talking about Guan Sheng's sneak attack and also talked about his own experiences.
It turns out that Yan Qing also noticed something unusual about Guan Sheng's army when he was in Daming Prefecture. The troops that usually go to the north to guard the border are just passing through and do not need to carry too much food and grass, because the northern state government has its own food supply and only needs to carry a few days' worth of food and grass. Dry food and the rest can be taken along the way to the state capital.
But Guan Sheng's army was transporting grain and grass in Daming Mansion. Yan Qing happened to be familiar with the grain merchants in Daming Mansion. The amount of grain and grass was really suspicious, enough for an army of more than 10,000 people for one month.
"It looks like it can be confirmed. Guan Sheng is preparing to attack us secretly. Gao Qiu is really a good plan. If the military advisor hadn't discovered it by chance, I'm afraid Guan Sheng's army would have arrived at the waterfront."
Sun Lei shook his head and said, although he had expected Gao Qiu to have some dirty tricks, he didn't expect it to be like this. It would be easy to get into trouble if he wasn't careful.
