If he wasn't on Huangmen Mountain and didn't want to be suspected, Gaokan wouldn't even need people from the mountain for this birthday trip. He could just ask Lu Zhishen and his three men to go with his accompanying men.
The Song army had only a hundred or ten men in combat power. If they were ready to kill, Lu Zhishen could kill half of them by himself.
Lin Chong and Yang Zhi are both good fighters. With a few men each, it will be easy for them to charge and kill them.
He persuaded Jiang Jing and Gongsun Sheng to go down the mountain with all his heart, and even gave them half of the harvest. Gao Kan was also heartbroken, but he just thought that the two of them would be his own sooner or later, so he let it go.
After discussing the matter in Juyi Hall, Jiang Jing immediately went out to order troops.
Gather the people on the mountain together, leaving one or two to look at Shanmen's hometown, while the rest go down the mountain.
Jiang Jing knew the way, and Yang Zhi knew where to escort the carriages and horses. The two matched up, and a group of people rushed forward and entered Puyang before the Xiang army.
In the mountains and forests, we found a suitable stall, divided our hands, and each set ambush.
Gao Kan did not follow Lu Zhishen to the main road to ambush them face to face. Instead, he followed Jiang Jing and Gongsun Sheng, leaving more than ten men behind on the hillside.
In less than half an hour, everything was ready, just waiting for people to come.
On the hillside, Gao Kan, Jiang Jing and Gongsun Sheng were sitting around, drinking tea and waiting to talk.
"Second Master, Taoist Priest, this big deal is done. We have money in hand, how do you two care about it?"
After hearing this, both of them looked at him in surprise.
It was Jiang Jing who said first: "As a duckweed, it is a blessing to be able to find half an inch of land on Huangmen Mountain. I just want to be safe and secure, and don't do anything else."
Jiang Jing opened his mouth to answer first, and Gongsun Sheng also said: "I will wait for King Chao Tianwang to rescue him and go all the way back to Liangshan."
Gao Kan also nodded when he heard this, took a sip of tea before speaking again.
"Both of you are people with strategic ambitions, and I admire you very much. The second master knows this. When I first went up the mountain, I wanted to ask the first master to plan for the future together. However, the first master is unintentional and it is not easy to force me."
As he spoke, he paused for a moment, glanced at Gongsun Sheng, and then continued: "This time, I am fighting side by side with the two of you. I will say some honest words that touch my heart."
"Whether it is Huangmen Mountain or the Liangshan Mountains, although it is free and happy, it is still just a bandit's road where a fallen grass is turned into a bandit. It will not last long and there will be no satisfaction."
"Others will do the same, but in my humble opinion, you two are not just muddle-headed people who only want to be happy for a while, but people who care about the world. However, the world is unfair and treacherous and sycophantic. There is nowhere to show your talents. You can only drop grass. If When you have the opportunity, I would like you both to think about what I have to say."
Gao Kan persuaded him face to face and spoke frankly. Although Jiang Jing and Gongsun Sheng did not answer, they had their own thoughts in their hearts.
He would never think that he could make two people fall in love with just a few words.
As the saying goes, everything depends on human effort, so there is no need to rush.
Jiang Jing was the only one who thought highly of it. He was about to take it into his pocket this time, and it would be hard to treat him any longer. As for Gongsun Sheng, when he returns to Liangshan with Chao Gai and Song Jiang, it won't take long for him to understand.
What he says now is just to leave thoughts in his mind.
While talking, there was no words for a while, and then there was silence for a long while.
At the end, Gongsun Sheng didn't know what to think, and suddenly asked: "What you just said, you have the world in mind, I don't know where this meaning comes from?"
Gao Kan didn't expect Gongsun Sheng to ask him this question and was surprised.
He said, "I'm not hiding anything from the Taoist priest. Although I'm often in Tokyo, I know some important things about my family and country. Years ago, the Song Dynasty formed an alliance with the Jin Kingdom and defeated the Liao Kingdom. Although there was a maritime alliance, the Jin Kingdom also agreed to defeat the Liao Kingdom." After that, the sixteen states of Yanyun, which were originally the hometown of the Han people, were owned by the Song Dynasty."
"But in my opinion, the Blackwater Tartars are just treacherous, rude, righteous and shameless yellow-headed slaves who are like money wolves and vicious dogs. How can their greed be satisfied?"
Hearing Gao Kan's words, Gongsun Sheng suddenly's eyes lit up: "Young Master, do you think that the Jin Kingdom will betray its alliance?"
"It must be so!" Gao Kan said without hesitation.
"If the Kingdom of Jin betrays its promise and gathers its army to march south, then the territory of our Song Dynasty will be devastated and countless people will be displaced."
"This time the Jin army has not moved first. Although we are not above the court, we are just a common man with a low voice, but we can also be self-reliant and make preparations in advance. Once the Jin army goes south, we can gather our troops to attack it, regardless of the battle. How can I not let the yellow-headed slaves be arrogant and domineering, thinking that I have no one in China!"
"Young Master is so righteous." Gongsun Sheng couldn't help but praise him with his hands raised.
Just as he was about to continue talking, he suddenly heard the sound of a large group of carriages and horses approaching from the bottom of the mountain, so he had to stop and all stood up to follow the sound.
In the mountains and forests, a group of Song Dynasty soldiers and horses, escorting more than a dozen vehicles, came from the main road and were about to arrive at the ambush place ahead.
Gao Kan continued: "Here we come, let's see how Master Lu behaves."
When the carriage and horses arrived at the ground, they saw Lu Zhishen holding a water-milling Zen staff. Huo jumped down from an old tree by the roadside, followed by a dozen or so people who also appeared with swords in their hands.
Then Lu Zhishen shouted: "Hey, I opened this mountain and planted this tree. I want to pass by here and leave money to buy the road. Are there thieves who come and rub birds with dog things? The wise ones leave their carriages and horses. Load the goods, get out of the way and run for your life, those who are ignorant, teach the Sa family to be ruthless with the Zen staff in their hands, and ask you to kill them all!"
The Xiang soldiers were immediately startled by the sudden appearance of the crowd, and when they saw that there were only a dozen or so people there, they breathed a sigh of relief.
Immediately, a man from the team came out and rode on the horse nonchalantly, jokingly: "I thought he was some kind of guy. It turns out he is a stupid pig who is not afraid of death. He doesn't know the military master, and he dares to come here to die?"
"What a military master and dog master, the Sa family thinks you are seeking death." Lu Zhishen scolded.
"Looking for death!" The military master immediately became furious, shouted loudly, and waved his men to kill Lu Zhishen.
Lu Zhishen looked at it, sneered for a while, and shouted: "I'm here to die and eat the Sajia Zen Staff!"
While he was talking, he carried the Zen staff and went out to kill him. Several soldiers from the Xiang army rushed forward. Before they could get a clear look, they were swept over by him with a Zen staff and were immediately killed.
When the military master saw this, he became even angrier and shouted: "That thief dares to kill my people. He is looking for death. Just give me a knife!"
As soon as the voice fell, he would personally pat the horse and kill the future with a simple sword.
Lu Zhishen was not afraid of rejoicing, and rushed forward as soon as he took a step, shouting: "Well done, you can also eat the Sajia Zen Staff!"
In a short while, the two of them reached a point where they were about to kill each other. The military master was supported by a military horse, so he was not killed and dismounted for a while. However, after fighting for a few times, he knew that the great monk in front of him was powerful, and he was horrified.
During the fight, he turned around and shouted: "Kill them all, surround and kill the bandits!"
All of a sudden, a group of Xiang soldiers came up with shouts to kill, and more than a dozen people following Lu Zhishen also followed and charged to kill him.
When the two parties came to a place, they saw Lu Zhi deep in the crowd, like a fierce tiger. He fought against the military master on horseback, and then took the opportunity to kill the soldiers vigorously. The beating made the Xiang army tremble. , and killed one piece.
