"Who else could he be if he wasn't such a thief?"
When Lu Zhishen heard Ou Peng's name, he immediately cursed.
"You bitch, not only did you betray your brothers on the mountain, but you also teamed up with thieves to rob a birthday party, and asked your brothers to take the blame for him. He is worse than a dog. If the Sa family sees him again, he will be eaten alive!"
Hearing this, Gao Kan was shocked and said, "Did they rob Taifu Tong's birth date?"
"Look at you, a young man with white skin and tender flesh, how can you tell me how well you know? How could the Sajia still trick you?" Lu Zhishen said angrily.
"That being the case, Master, are you willing to go to Daming Mansion with Mr. Liang Zhongshu to testify in person?" Gao Kan asked.
"Why don't you dare?" Lu Zhishen said fearlessly.
"Okay, with this glance from the master, I can not only protect the brothers on the mountain from recovery, but also ensure that the brothers have a place to stay!"
Gao Kan clapped his hands in praise and turned to Tang Heng: "Commander Tang, you heard what Master said. Send someone back to Daming Mansion immediately to report to Mr. Zhongshu that Grand Master's birthday plan was also robbed by Liangshan thieves and must not be let go. Get past them!"
"Yes, my subordinates will do it now!" Tang Heng was shocked and responded quickly.
Little did he know that all of this was a good show that Gao Kan had already arranged for Yang Zhi to go up the mountain to the village first and discuss it with Jiang Jing and Lu Zhishen.
At first glance, Lu Zhishen seemed to be a straightforward man and a monk. Who would have expected that he would tell lies without blinking an eye.
Not to mention Tang Heng, Gao Kan was a little surprised.
I didn't expect Lu Tiha to have such ability.
When Tang Heng turned around, Gao Kan said to Jiang Jing again: "Since the second master is willing to surrender, how about asking the brothers to put down their weapons and open the gate of the village to welcome the army?"
"Don't dare to disobey." Jiang Jing saw that the play had finished and he agreed.
So the gate of Huangmen Village was opened wide, and the officers and soldiers entered the gate.
There is also a special person who counts the names and origins of the people in the village and records them in the policy. They can then confirm with their place of origin in the future without making too many statements.
It is said that Gao Kan led a group of people into the stronghold, and under the guidance of Jiang Jing and others, they went straight to Zhongyi Hall.
After entering the hall and taking a seat, Gaokan talked for a while. When Tang Heng sent people back, he ordered him to deal with all matters in the stronghold.
After everything was done, everyone was called back to the Zhongyi Hall.
At this moment, Gao Kan sat in the main seat in the hall, glanced at Jiang Jing, and said: "Second Master, since we have surrendered this time, everything in the mountain must be decided again. Brothers can stay in the mountain and be under the jurisdiction of the army for the time being. , you and Grandmaster will also go to the Daming Mansion with us to meet Mr. Liang Zhongshu in person and explain the situation."
"No villain dares to disobey." Jiang Jing stood up and bowed his hands.
Turning his face, Gao Kan said to Tang Heng again: "Commander Tang, thank you very much for staying behind and guarding the stronghold. Be careful about everything. I will talk about the matter after I report back to Lord Zhongshu."
"I accept your orders." Tang Heng stood up and agreed.
With a wave of his hand, Gao Kan continued: "It's an urgent matter, so we can't delay. Coach Lin and Coach Yang, tell people to prepare the carriages and horses. We will set off back to Daming Mansion immediately."
"Yes." Yang Zhi and Lin Chong stood up and responded at the same time.
Then He led everyone out of Zhongyi Hall, got in the car and walked out of the village.
Tang Heng stood at the door to see them off. After Gaokan's carriages and horses left the village gate, he ordered his people to close the gate and guard the village.
Let's say that Gao Kan and his party descended from Huangmen Mountain. On the way, they invited Jiang Jing to sit in the carriage. Lin Chong, Yang Zhi, and Lu Zhishen rode on horseback and led the rest of their men to escort them.
In the carriage, Gao Kan said with a smile: "It's hard work for Second Master Fei to do this, but fortunately everything goes well."
"Young Master is so righteous. Saving me is like being in water and fire. I will be rekindled by kindness. I am willing to die in repayment for your great kindness." Jiang Jing hurriedly clasped his fists and bowed.
"The second master does not need to perform this great gift. This has solved the disaster and will surely have the opportunity to make achievements in the future."
Gao Kan helped Jiang Jing up, and then said: "Tang Heng is the commander of the remaining department of Daming Mansion. However, I think he has extraordinary martial arts skills and upright character. He is also a promising talent. I have the intention to keep him. That's why I deliberately left him under guard on the mountain. When I went to Daming Mansion, I asked Liang Zhongshu for the government's military establishment certificate. From now on, Huangmen Mountain will be our foundation."
"Young Master has a far-sighted vision that makes it difficult for his subordinates to catch up with him." Jiang Jing said hurriedly.
"But Tang Heng is not a brother after all. There is still a gap. The food, grass, gold and silver on the mountain are very heavy. If someone accidentally notices it, it will inevitably cause a lot of trouble. Is it settled properly?" Gao Kan asked.
Jiang Jing heard the words and said quickly: "Please let me go, sir. The money and grain that were transported up the mountain and the inventory in the mountain were already there. My subordinates have already ordered people to move out of the mountain stronghold and hide them in a secret place in the back mountain. Except for the participants, no one else knows. It is on the mountain." Brothers are also hard to find, so there will be no loss.”
"I feel very at ease with the second boss's work."
Hearing Jiang Jing's words, Gao Kan breathed a sigh of relief.
After spending so much effort and going around in such a big circle, it was not easy to perform this big drama smoothly.
What he is most worried about is the massive amount of food and grass shipped from Daming Mansion, as well as the treasures that were left behind during the previous calamity.
If any of these things are missed, it may lead to huge troubles, and it will be impossible to explain at that time.
Jiang Jing made arrangements in advance this time. He did not give separate instructions in advance, which was considered a mistake. Unexpectedly, Jiang Jing acted carefully and handled everything properly in advance.
It can also be seen that Gao Kan's original prediction was not wrong, and Jiang Jing was indeed a rare talent.
The most worrying thing in his heart was gone, and Gao Kan was even more anxious to return to Daming Mansion.
It is not known when Song Jiang and Chao Gai will attack Daming Mansion. Even if Lu Junyi and Suo Chao lead the troops, the place may not be able to be defended, so Gao Kan must get the military documents from Liang Zhongshu as soon as possible.
If we wait until Daming Mansion falls, it will be useless to look for him.
After rushing all the way and slowly, we finally entered Damingfu City in the early morning of the third day. As soon as he entered the city, Gao Kan heard a piece of news that moved his heart.
The Liangshan bandits are fighting with the officers and soldiers who stayed behind to suppress the bandits!
Just four days ago, bandits from Hebei and Shandong gathered in the north of Damingfu and south of Guantao by taking advantage of the dangerous roads. They contacted the Liangshan bandits hiding in the mountains northwest of Qiankou Town and attacked Guantao County from the north to the south.
Overnight, these bandits took over Guantao County and united the bandits in one place.
The bandits here, led by Chao Gai, the King of Tota, and Song Jiang, Hu Baoyi, raised the banner in Guantao County and called themselves the "Loyal and Righteous Army". Chao Gai recognized the land and water marshal, and Song Jiang recognized the land and water marshal.
The two thieves each led their troops and divided their troops into two locations. Starting from Guantao County, they attacked Daming Mansion.
Lu Junyi, the infantry commander of the left-behind division to suppress the thieves, was convinced and ordered Suo Chao, the general of the left-behind division, to be the vanguard and lead the three battalions of the cavalry army to meet the enemy first. Lu Junyi personally led the infantry as the rear troops to outflank and reinforce.
The two sides fought for two days. Suo Chao's vanguard was unstoppable and surrounded and suppressed the bandits and forced them to retreat. They had already returned to Guantao County.
According to rumors, the officers and soldiers wiped out the bandits in the blink of an eye.
