"You mean the night battle!"
Zongze immediately understood what Sun Li meant. If it were daytime, they would have been discovered ten miles away from the thieves on the sea. The thieves had artillery and it would be impossible for them to get close. But it was different at night. They could use the cover of night to launch a sneak attack. . Qinbei Pavilion
"This is not easy, and the success rate is probably not high."
Zongze pondered and came to the conclusion that these recruits had no chance of winning if they attacked the bandits head-on. Even if they attacked at night, they would only have a 10 to 20% chance of winning.
"But this is the only way."
Sun Li said insistently.
"Why do you insist on a night attack? Wouldn't it be better to wait for the navy from the south to arrive?"
Zongze looked at Sun Li and asked.
"Mr. Judge, we know nothing about the thieves now, and we don't even know which island they are on. In this case, how will the Southern Navy fight when they arrive? If we keep waiting, I'm afraid it will take a year and a half. It won’t end the fight!”
Sun Li's heart skipped a beat. His sudden positivity aroused Zong Ze's suspicion, but he had already thought about this. Zong Ze wanted to get rid of the bandits as soon as possible, so he started from this point.
"Although fighting a thief is dangerous, you can find out the thief's true identity and get more information. If you are lucky enough to achieve some results, it will be even more inspiring!"
Sun Li looked at Zong Ze and said seriously.
"You can train with peace of mind, and I will help you raise some clippers!"
Zongze looked at Sun Li and said, just as Sun Li said, this war cannot last too long, and a port like Dengzhou cannot be threatened by thieves for a long time. Although Sun Li's idea is risky, it must be tried.
"Yes, Mr. Tongsuan!"
Sun Li worshiped with great joy.
"If the suppression of the bandits is successful, I will join forces with Wang Zhizhou to write a letter asking for credit for you!"
Zongze looked at Sun Li and said.
"It's all thanks to the support of Mr. Tongjian! I will retaliate to the death!"
Sun Li was so excited that he immediately kowtowed.
…
Salmon Island.
"Brother, an unknown ship was found on the west shore."
Ruan Xiaoer walked to the shed by the beach and said.
"Is he a fisherman?"
Sun Lei, who was having a barbecue, frowned and asked. In addition to fish, shrimps and crabs, there are also oysters, scallops and abalone on this beach. These things are delicious when grilled with garlic.
"No, the number of people coming is not small. Under the banner of the Daming Prefecture official army, there are ten large ships. They entered the Bohai Sea from the Yellow River and are now heading towards Dengzhou."
Ruan Xiaoer said.
"Daming Mansion? This old guy Liang Zhongshu still has the energy to take care of Dengzhou's affairs? He can stretch his hands long enough!"
Sun Lei looked at the sizzling oily oysters in front of him and said, Daming Mansion and Dengzhou are beyond reach.
"Brother, I'm afraid there is a trace of Cai Jing in it."
Xu Guanzhong said.
"Cai Jing?"
Sun Lei frowned and then realized that Liang Zhongshu was Cai Jing's son-in-law. The unreasonable things Liang Zhongshu did were most likely under Cai Jing's orders.
"Does Cai Jing also want to get a share of the pie?"
Sun Lei rubbed his chin and thought. The imperial court must have wanted to unite with the Jurchens to destroy the Liao Dynasty. It was impossible for Cai Jing to let go of such a huge achievement.
"Sun Li said that Wang Shizhong had sent many memorials to the court, and he was afraid that he wanted to go to Liaodong."
Gongsun Sheng said that the safest way for the Song Dynasty to contact the Jurchens was to cross the Bohai Sea to Liaodong.
"Want to go to Liaodong? Have you asked me?"
Sun Lei looked in the direction of Dengzhou with a sneer. Those fools still refused to give up. In this case, let them see it again.
"Sign up all the ships and capture those people for me!"
Sun Lei looked at Ruan Xiaoer, Ruan Xiaowu, Ruan Xiaoqi and Fei Bao and said.
"Yes, brother!"
The four of them clasped their fists in unison.
Come to the sea outside the state.
"Brother, they say there are pirates in the Bohai Sea. We have been here for two days and we haven't seen anything! It can't be a lie!"
Tong Wei looked at Li Jun and asked.
"Don't be careless. I heard that the Dengzhou Navy was wiped out and the imperial court was furious. Soon the Southern Navy will come to suppress the bandits."
Li Jun glanced at the sea with a solemn expression. This time he, Tong Wei, Tong Meng, and Zhang Heng went to Dengzhou with a mission.
Since Song Jiang decided to recruit troops and was defeated miserably by Sun Lei, the group of them went around to Daming Mansion, where Liang Zhongshu arranged some small official positions for them.
What Li Jun got was only a card soldier, and Tong Wei, Tong Meng, and Zhang Heng were only deputy soldiers. In terms of status, this position was already quite high. If he joined the army, he wanted to go from being a top soldier to a card soldier. It takes several years to become outstandingly capable.
But Li Jun was not satisfied with all that. On the one hand, Song Jiang acted arbitrarily and did not care what his brothers thought. On the other hand, there was the attitude of Liang Zhongshu of Daming Palace. Liang Zhongshu was very indifferent to them and looked down upon them.
"How can there be any regular navy in the north? It's up to us southerners to operate the boats!"
Tong Meng said with a smile, he didn't believe any rumors about pirates at all.
"But brother, we've all come out, let's just leave! Why go back and suffer?"
Tong Meng whispered to Li Jun that Liang Zhongshu was not the only one who looked down on them in the Daming Palace. The officials and generals below all looked down upon them. They were both officials, so they were inferior to others and could not be respected.
"That Zhang Heng is a problem. Let's just throw him on the shore. When he comes back, we'll all be gone."
Tong Wei whispered, Zhang Heng on the other ship was still unaware.
"No rush, let's go to Dengzhou first."
Li Jun shook his head and said, this is still the north. They are not familiar with the terrain and it is difficult to take action. Even if they succeed, where will they go? If they go all the way south, they won't even have a supply place for thousands of miles.
"Brother, what on earth are we doing in Dengzhou!"
Tong Wei looked at Li Jun and asked, several of them were sent to Dengzhou, but no one told them what they were going to Dengzhou for.
"I don't know either."
Li Jun took out a letter, which was sealed with fire paint and had Liang Zhongshu's seal on it.
"How about we open it and take a look!"
Tong Meng looked at the letter and said.
"How can we communicate if we open it?"
Li Jun shook his head and said, their mission is to send this letter to Dengzhou and hand it to the Zhizhou Wang Shizhong.
"Brother, why do we need our brothers to come just to send you a message? You are also bringing Daming Mansion's fleet with you!"
Tong Wei said solemnly, this mission revealed something strange, which made him feel very uneasy.
"Most of them asked us to assist Dengzhou in suppressing the bandits, but Daming Mansion sent troops to help Dengzhou. This is very intriguing."
Li Jun shook his head and said that he couldn't guess what was hidden inside, but they had no choice but to listen to others' orders. Fortunately, they had long wanted to leave Song Jiang, and this was a good opportunity.
"They were talking lively, but I was the only one! If I had known, I would have followed my brother, how could the two brothers have company!"
On another ship, Zhang Heng saw Li Jun, Tong Wei, and Tong Meng talking together, with mixed feelings in his heart. These three people were close and discussed everything together.
When he was at Erlong Mountain, Zhang Heng felt bored. He originally thought of going up to the mountain to gather friends, and they were all close friends. But in the end, they were all in a small circle, on a small hill, playing with themselves.
Everyone in Jiangzhou was dispersed. Dai Zong was Song Jiang's confidant. Li Jun, Tong Wei, and Tong Meng were in a small group. Li Li goes his own way and likes to work alone and eat alone. The two brothers Mu Chun and Mu Hong only care about themselves. Hou Jian and Xue Yong were taciturn.
