Tong Guan saw more and more people coming around, and they seemed to be putting all the pressure on him, and he secretly thought something was wrong.
"What do you think!"
Tong Guan immediately looked at Zhong Shidao and others beside him, and he was very fortunate to have brought these people here this time, so that someone could share some of the burden.
"The war has just ended. If we want to assemble a large army, it will take at least a month. During this period, we must build ordnance and prepare food and fodder..."
Zhong Shidao looked at Tong Guan and said, there are many things to prepare for the crusade against Liangshan.
"Don't say this, I'm just asking you how to conquer Liangshan. What your Majesty wants is a charter!"
Tong Guanyi waved his hands and said, he has his own thoughts on dispatching troops and generals. What he wants now is a way to destroy Liangshan.
Zhong Shidao was in a dilemma. Yang Keshi, Yang Weizhong, Liu Yanqing, Wang Zhen and others next to him were also frowning. They could not think of any way to quickly pacify Liangshan.
Sun Li wisely took two steps back at this time and did not continue to stay by Tong Guan's side. He did not want to be noticed at this time. He knew best what kind of combat power the Song Dynasty's official army had now. Are these people going to fight Liangshan? Doesn't that mean you're going to die?
Just when Tong Guan and others were at a loss what to do, Zhang Bangchang, the assistant minister of Zhongshu, walked up the steps and walked into the Daqing Hall under the surprised eyes of everyone.
"Does Mr. Zhang have a solution?"
Everyone was thinking about it. Zhang Bangchang was born as a Jinshi. He had been an official for more than 20 years. He had served as Shangshu Youcheng and Shangshu Zuocheng. In the past two years, he had been promoted to Zhongshu Shilang, which was considered quite favored.
"Zhang Bangchang!"
Cai Jing, Liang Shicheng and others looked pensive. Although Zhang Bangchang had good relations with them on weekdays, he was actually his own group and had a group of confidants.
Zhang Bangchang entered the Daqing Hall and did not come out for a long time. This made the officials in the square even more guessing. What could Zhang Bangchang, a civil servant who had never led an army in combat, do to deal with Liangshan?
"Brother Song Jiang, what are we doing? Why not go back!"
Kong Ming muttered next to Song Jiang.
"Yeah, this is none of our business!"
Kong Liang and others also echoed. They were originally full of curiosity about this meeting. Their official positions were low, and it was impossible for the eighth and ninth grades to participate in the government. This time they came with a curious attitude, but they were left out. There was no place to sit in the square, and no one was allowed to leave.
"I'm hungry!"
Mu Chun also yelled. They didn't eat anything when they came. They thought of eating the royal meal in the palace, but they just stood there.
"Brothers, please be careful. This is the palace. If these words are heard, you will be in trouble!"
Song Jiang immediately told everyone with a straight face that the people around him still have no official status at all. This is the palace, and you will lose your head if you are not careful.
"Isn't it just for Liangshan? Just send troops to fight. I will definitely cut Sun Lei into pieces!"
Dong Ping gritted his teeth and said, his hand unconsciously touched his cheek, and there was a rather hideous scar on his cheek.
"I swear I will not be a human being unless I take revenge for this!"
Dong Ping felt even more angry when he touched the scar. He prided himself on being a romantic double-gun general, and this appearance was what he cared about the most. But in the last battle, Liangshan used venom bullets, and the shrapnel injured his cheek. The venom seeped into the wound and caused The infection, after healing, left this hideous scar like a centipede.
Dong Ping searched all the famous doctors in Tokyo but could not remove the scar. Now his face is ruined. He dare not go out now. Everyone thinks they are making fun of him.
"Broken into pieces? I'm going to crush his bones into ashes!"
Mu Hong gritted his teeth and said, there were no scars on his face, but the injured leg was left disabled. Now he walks with a slight limp. Although it is not serious, for a healthy person In other words, this is disability.
"Two brothers, calm down! Sun Lei is now rebellious, and the court will not sit idly by and take revenge if there is a chance!"
When Song Jiang saw Dong Ping and Mu Hong acting like this, he immediately spoke to comfort them. These two people had abilities and he could use them, but their tempers were too great and they had to be calmed down.
"Brother, it is said that the last time Cai You attacked Daming Mansion, Li Cheng, Wenda, and Suo Chao all fell."
Li Zhong looked at Song Jiang and said, they are the most familiar with those people in Daming Mansion. Li Cheng and Wen Da are not bad in terms of leadership ability and martial arts. The annihilation of an entire army of 50,000 people is no small matter.
"Brother Li Zhong, what are you worried about?"
Song Jiang looked at Li Zhong and asked. Song Jiang was a little impatient with Li Zhong. Why did Li Zhong, Xue Yong, and Hou Jian, who used to be just wandering around the world begging for food, help them find such a good person? Regarding the future, everyone is ungrateful, timid in fighting, and all they talk about is rejection.
"Brother Song Jiang, I'm just worried..."
Seeing Song Jiang's displeasure, Li Zhong immediately lowered his head.
"Humph, worried? Brother Li Zhong, you are an official of the imperial court now, so think about this black gauze and this official uniform! It is not easy for me to help you get this!"
Song Jiang looked at Li Zhong and said, but his eyes swept over Xue Yong and Hou Jian. These people needed a beating.
Guan Sheng and Hu Yanzhuo next to them did not speak. They just frowned and looked at Zhaowen. They were not surprised that Liangshan was going to found the country and Sun Lei was going to ascend the throne.
"Your Majesty has a decree to declare..."
A eunuch walked up to the Daqing Palace and screamed.
A series of names were read out, and finally it was discovered that the emperor summoned those officials of fourth rank and above who usually went to court on weekdays, while those below fourth rank remained in the square.
"Zhang Aiqing has an idea. Sun Lei issued this edict to be independent, so I will also issue an edict!"
Zhao Ji looked at the officials coming in and then spoke.
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid the appeal is of little use!"
When Li Gang saw no one speaking, he left work and spoke.
"What do you mean?"
Zhang Bangchang was furious. Li Gang rejected the plan he finally came up with.
"Your Majesty, Sun Lei and those people are all grass bandits. The edict is illogical and inconsistent, as if it was pieced together by a villager..."
Li Gang said.
"They are just a bunch of thieves. They can only read and digitize. How do you expect them to be proficient in literature and science? Your Majesty, I am willing to write an essay with you, and I will definitely compare with those thieves and bandits!"
Zhang Bangchang opened his mouth and said, he is the most proficient in writing. It is easy for him to write a righteous and righteous statement, with words like swords and powerful momentum like a rainbow. It will definitely surpass Liangshan's edict by dozens of blocks!
When Zhao Ji heard this, his expression improved a lot, as if he could suppress Liangshan by writing a more powerful message.
The people present were all talented people, most of them were Jinshi scholars, and their literary talents were all top-notch. Naturally, they knew Zhang Bangchang's little thoughts.
Zhang Bangchang was secretly changing his concept and misleading the emperor. Zhao Ji's order just now was to come up with a practical way to annihilate Liangshan. Now he was led astray by Zhang Bangchang, who felt that he could surpass Liangshan in terms of literary talent.
Liangshan's edict is very poor in literary quality. It would be too easy to write an article that surpasses Liangshan's edict. (End of chapter)
