Song Jiang did not think that the imperial conquest was a risk, but rather a good opportunity to be recruited.
As long as the offensive of the officers and soldiers can be thwarted, the imperial court, which has never been willing to waste food and salary, will definitely propose recruitment.
He had been in a government office before and knew the ropes very well.
Song Jiang has absolute confidence in defending Liangshan.
After all, Liangshan Park, eight hundred miles away, is not a place where officers and soldiers can run wild.
As long as the navy controlled by the three Ruan brothers is controlled, the officers and soldiers can only feel helpless.
Tens of thousands of officers and soldiers eat horse chews all day long without fighting. How can the princes in the court endure it?
The only shortcomings of this tactic were the lack of food when they were besieged on Liangshan Mountain, and the most feared internal strife.
Therefore, Song Jiang was determined to attack Zhujiazhuang again before the main force of officers and soldiers arrived.
On the one hand, Zhujiazhuang is very rich and has sufficient food and grass, and there are countless kinds of materials such as salt, oil, cloth and silk.
On the other hand, it is to increase prestige and expand one's voice.
After all, Song Jiang is only the nominal boss of Liangshan at this time. In fact, Liangshan is divided into three parts of the world.
If you want to be the real boss and get the maximum benefits when you are recruited, you must take away the brothers under Chao Gai and Lin Chong.
The only way to lure these heroes away is to increase your prestige. Winning battles and grabbing enough money, food and supplies will naturally increase your prestige.
The eight-hundred-mile Liangshan moor was too big, so Song Jiang took thousands of men and horses, took a boat to the shore, and then went straight to Zhujiazhuang in Dulong.
The information he received was that Zhujiazhuang's main Zhuangke nursing homes had gone to join the army. At this time, the only people left in the village were the old, weak, sick and disabled.
Song Jiang believed in his intelligence source very much, so he brought all his confidants over and decided to have a big vote.
The terrain of Dulonggang is similar to that of Jingyanggang. It is a hillside with lush forests. In the three directions of this hillside, there are three villages, namely Zhujiazhuang, Lijiazhuang and Hujiazhuang.
These three villages are not ordinary villages, but local local snakes.
For example, the Zhu family in Zhujiazhuang is actually a family-style dynamic organization similar to the mafia.
They seized people's fields, set up cards to collect taxes, robbed business travelers, and engaged in the business of selling private salt and ironware, etc.
In fact, thieves living within a hundred miles of the area had to pay taxes to their families on a regular basis.
Otherwise, where did Zhujiazhuang get the thousands of villagers who guard the courtyard, and where did the mountains of food, grass, and goods come from?
As for the other two sides, Lijiazhuang and Hujiazhuang, they are actually very similar, but it is obvious that Zhujiazhuang is the leader in this area.
During the Han Dynasty, this kind of power was called local tyrants.
But don't underestimate the powerful power of these places. They may seem inconspicuous, but they have great energy.
In troubled times, if you have money, food, people, and connections, you can raise troops and banners in minutes and become a force.
When the Kingdom of Jin invaded the south, powerful people from the north gathered in a wave. ….When Mongolia destroyed the Song Dynasty, another wave of powerful people emerged and became the many warlords under Kublai Khan, and they were also the real main force in the destruction of the Song Dynasty.
When Song Jiang confidently led thousands of minions, detoured from Dulonggang and rushed towards Zhujiazhuang, it was when he bypassed the hill and got on the official road that he went straight to Zhujiazhuang. The large groups of people from Zhuanglijiazhuang and Hujiazhuang came face to face.
The scene was very embarrassing.
Looking at the large crowd of people and horses in front of him, blue veins appeared on Song Jiang's forehead. There was something wrong with his intelligence source. M.biQuge.biZ
In this case, there is no way to escape. The only option is to make a move first, withstand the impact and then seek opportunities to retreat.
Just when Song Jiang was about to charge with his troops, Zhu Chaofeng, the current boss of the Zhujiazhuang across the street, sent someone over, saying that he wanted to talk to the big boss.
Song Jiang is also puzzled. We are in a black-and-white relationship, so what else is there to talk about?
It's just that he is shrewd and good at noticing details. I felt keenly that something was going on here.
As the bosses on both sides led the guards to negotiate among the military formations, Song Jiang suddenly understood why these local snakes wanted to join forces with him to fight against the officers and soldiers.
The reason is that when they went to take refuge with Wu Erlang before, they had a falling out!
Li Yunze fell out with these local snakes, of course, not because he wanted to snatch Zhu Biao's fiancée, but because these families were within Li Yunze's attack range!
Back to a few days ago, Zhu Chaofeng, Li Ying and others happily took their family members to protect the courtyard, and ran to the imperial army in Yuncheng County to visit Li Yunze, hoping to eliminate their reputation with the Taiwei. The extremely bad Liangshan thieves.
Li Yunze, who was busy with military affairs, waited for more than an hour before meeting them.
"I wish you the best~~"
"Student Li Ying~~"
"Xiaomin Hucheng~~"
After entering the Chinese army's tent, the three Zhuangzi speakers all saluted Li Yunze and said, "Greetings to the Taiwei~~~"
It can be seen from the self-proclaimed names of the three of them that their specific identities are different.
Zhu Chaofeng calls himself a lower official, that's because although he is the boss of the vitality organization and the kind who does bad things, he still has an official status.
It is precisely because of his official status that he can become bigger and stronger.
The owner of Lijiazhuang, Li Ying, calls himself a student. Of course, he is not a student of Li Yunze, but a member of a local wealthy family, and he also has a diploma from three houses in the state and county.
It is not difficult for powerful people in these places to obtain these identities.
The last one, Hu Cheng, really has nothing left. He must have just taken over the job and hadn't had time to get himself some washing powder or something.
Li Yunze, who was wearing armor and a golden sword, was sitting behind the couch and looked at the group of people with an expressionless face: "Why do you want to see me, general?"
Zhu Chaofeng and the others said that the three Zhuangzi combined could mobilize thousands or even tens of thousands of people. After all, this was the normal level of fighting between ancient Chinese villages.
But when they actually entered the military camp, they truly realized the huge difference between village fighting and a real army.
All you see are armored soldiers, dazzling swords and guns, hordes of bows and crossbows, banners fluttering, the camp is heavily guarded, and the murderous atmosphere is even more chilling. .... Precisely because I had seen the powerful deterrence of the army before, my attitude when facing Li Yunze was extremely upright, and could even be called groveling.
In the final analysis, powerful people are just dynamic organizations.
"Why are you here to see me?"
Facing the inquiry, Zhu Chaofeng went out to salute and said, "We were very happy to hear that the Taiwei led an army to annihilate the bandits in Liangshan. We came here specially to donate food, grass and military supplies to the army, and the children of the clan also volunteered to serve for the Taiwei as a pioneer."
This has been the standard attitude of local powerful people towards the government and army since the Han Dynasty.
Sending money and goods first, and then providing manpower from the clan has been the way for powerful people to survive for thousands of years.
These are all benefits for free, and you can also get help from local snakes. Almost no one from Liu Xiu to Liu Bei will refuse.
But what Zhu Chaofeng and the others didn't expect was that Li Yunze responded directly, "You are the only ones with three melons and two dates, so you still have the nerve to take it out?"
Zhu Chaofeng was stunned, and subconsciously responded, "Captain Mingjian, we have sent you tens of thousands of treasures and military supplies. These are all benefits that the Crown Prince got in vain. We can still send thousands of people." ..."
"No need."
Before Zhu Chaofeng could finish his words, Li Yunze waved his hand impatiently, "This general doesn't like these three melons and two dates. Besides, the general under my command is a noble master, how can he associate with thieves and bandits?"
The three people who said this were shocked and turned pale. Li Ying hurriedly saluted and said, "Why did the Lieutenant say this? We are all good citizens."
"Good people?" Li Yunze was amused. "I am from Qinghe County. Others may not know your details, but they can't hide it from me."
"You." Li Yunze pointed at Zhu Chaofeng, "The big bandit who sits on the ground in Dulonggang and divides the spoils. He has more than a thousand minions and thousands of young men under his command. Not only does his family accumulate food and grass, he secretly builds weapons and armors, and he also colludes with internal and external forces to rebel!"
Without waiting for Zhu Chaofeng to react, Li Yunze pointed at Li Ying, "You are willing to help Zhujiazhuang's minions, provide them with manpower, food, military supplies, and join forces to rebel!"
"And you." Li Yunze pointed at Hu Cheng, and after a brief pause he said, "I wish the thief's in-laws and minions were accomplices in his rebellion!"
There is nothing to fear from the big thieves who sit on the ground and divide the spoils. There are powerful people like this everywhere.
It doesn't matter if the family has a lot of food and grass. Of course, the landlord's family has a surplus of food.
Don't worry about making weapons privately. No one has a knife or a gun these days.
What really kills you is hiding your armor and stomach privately. This is really going to kill your head.
What's even more unfortunate is that Zhujiazhuang really has a hidden secret!
Just like the vitality organizations want to hide iron, the powerful people of the Song Dynasty also like to hide armor stomach.
As long as this kind of thing is not caught, people usually turn a blind eye to it.
But once it is revealed, someone will definitely be unlucky.
As for Li Yunze accusing them of intending to rebel, it doesn't matter anymore. After all, hiding a stomach secretly is enough to kill the whole family.
You can’t die twice anyway!
"Lieutenant!" Zhu Chaofeng hurriedly bowed down, "We are good citizens and are only loyal to the Emperor and Song Dynasty. How can we have the courage to rebel?"
The Song Dynasty was the dynasty with the most rebellions in history. This kind of thing was almost commonplace in the Song Dynasty. .... But those are the ones who only raise flags when they can no longer survive. People like Zhu Chaofeng, who have a great family and a great business, will never dare to raise an army until troubled times.
Everyone knows the truth, but it’s a pity it’s useless.
"Many of the clan members you brought here are wearing armor and stomach." Li Yunze smiled calmly, "You are really stupid to send the evidence in front of me."
Zhu Chaofeng and others never expected that Li Yunze would put aside the benefits he got for free and only wanted to frame himself and others.
They came to seek refuge with their troops and horses. Naturally, they were well-equipped, and they naturally brought hundreds of armors and stomachs with them.
Even Hu Cheng was wearing armor and stomach at this time!
"Capture all those wearing armor and stomach." Li Yunze did not give them a chance to quibble at all, and directly ordered, "The remaining people will go back on their own. In ten days, I will personally lead the troops to your village for inventory and inspection. No need to say more, get out. Bar."
The purpose of detaining Jiawei and Ren was to obtain evidence.
Let the remaining people go back to give them a chance to rebel.
After all, these three families are rich and well-connected, and they are willing to spend money to save lives at this time. Even if the lawsuit goes to the imperial court, there will be something to say.
Li Yunze refused to cause trouble, so he simply gave them a chance to rebel.
As long as you really rebel, you don't need to say anything and it can be solved easily.
Li Yunze's consistent attitude towards these powerful people in the fish and meat village is to directly destroy them.
Hu Cheng was captured on the spot, and Zhu Chaofeng and Li Ying were carried out.
Before he was carried out, Zhu Chaofeng was still wailing and calling to Li Yunze, "Captain, Commander! My family is willing to pay 30,000, 50,000...100,000 yuan! If I pay 100,000 yuan to ask for forgiveness from the commander~~ ~"
Over there, Li Ying was also shouting that he was willing to give money, and it would be easy to discuss how much he wanted.
When the curtain of the Chinese army's tent was lowered again, Li Yunze lowered his head and continued to look through the various documents in his hands.
"Idiots, if I destroy you, all the property belongs to me. Are you using my property to beg for mercy? You're crazy."
