That night, in a small but extremely tidy house, Zhang Jun made the bed, looked at Chen Dong who was drinking tea leisurely and said: "Senior, you can sleep inside! It's warmer inside."
Chen Dong was originally assigned a place to live, but he wanted to chat with Zhang Jun, so he temporarily stayed in Zhang Jun's room. Although Liangshan has a big foundation now, how can the houses in the mountain be so luxurious?
Chen Dong looked at it, nodded with a smile, and said: "Deyuan, although your parents have died since you were young, you come from a truly famous family. Are you a little uncomfortable coming to Liangshan?"
When Zhang Jun heard this, he was silent for a moment and said: "It was a little bit at first, but now it's much better."
"Tell me"
"My brother is a hero who can achieve great things, and the military advisor is also very kind to me."
After Chen Dong nodded, he looked at Zhang Jun who had carefully kept silent and said unexpectedly: "Finished??"
"kindness"
"You guys are so boring," Chen Dong said with some dissatisfaction.
"It's boring." Zhang Jun was stunned and said with a wry smile: "Senior, my time on the mountain is still very short, and I am not as good as the senior, but I have already made great achievements in battle!!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Dong smiled and said, "Then what do you think of the plan I mentioned today?"
Zhang Jun was stunned, and after a slight hesitation, he said: "What the senior said about using imperial edicts to gain the initiative is naturally very good, but Cai Jing and others in the imperial court may not give it easily, because once this hole is opened, other places will also follow suit. Following suit, the Song Dynasty was like the end of the Tang Dynasty, with numerous vassals. Although they were selfish, they were not stupid. In addition, there were also smart and capable people in the prefectures in various parts of Jingdong. Even if the imperial edict arrived, they would not necessarily You will be called immediately, so you still have to be prepared!!”
"How to prepare??" Chen Dong asked again.
"I don't know this brother, but if we attack them one by one, I'm afraid the losses will be considerable," Zhang Jun said.
Chen Dong's face changed, "Then if we successfully win it, how do you think JD.com should be governed?"
"Form elite soldiers, educate talents, open up wasteland, and exempt from taxes. Within three years, we will consolidate our foundation. We will not launch a full-scale confrontation with the imperial court at the top, but we can develop sea trade and increase financial resources at the bottom." When Zhang Jun said this, he seemed to immediately Feeling much more confident, he immediately picked up a scroll of manuscripts next to the bed and said, "These are some of my thoughts. They were originally intended to be given to the military advisor. Now that the senior is here, please give me some advice first!!"
When Chen Dong heard this, he took it and looked at it, and his expression gradually became serious. When he finished reading, he looked at the expectant Zhang Jun and said with a smile: "Deyuan, your talent is worthy of being a prime minister!"
Zhang Jun was stunned for a moment and said quickly: "Senior, that's a compliment."
Chen Dong looked at the six chapters on political governance and the four laws on military governance in his hand, smiled, and stretched, "I'm so tired these days, I'm going to have a good sleep."
"Then senior, let's go to sleep first!!"
"good"
When Chen Dong went to bed casually, he closed his eyes and rested. However, after only half a quarter of an hour, he opened his eyes again and turned around to see Zhang Jun sitting behind the desk, correcting something with a serious face.
Seeing this scene, Chen Dong raised his lips.
. . .
In the third year of Xuanhe in the Song Dynasty, on December 3, Wang You led the Siping Army of 3,500 people and officially launched the Battle of Shanzhou. Wang You used 20 iron artillery pieces as a shock and violently bombarded Shan's father's city. Mobilizing all the troops, like a lion fighting a rabbit, in just two days, they captured the weak Shanfu City and captured the prefect of Shanzhou alive.
On December 7, the commander-in-chief of Qin and Ming Dynasty divided his army in Wuyin Mountain with 4,000 troops and set up an ambush in the canyon. In one battle, he defeated 5,000 Yingtian reinforcements.
Then the two armies merged, and within just half a month, the entire territory of Shanzhou was recovered.
"Hahaha, okay, okay." On this day, above Liangshan, Song Jiang looked at the good news and said with a happy smile. Shanzhou was captured by Liangshan, and the entire perimeter of Jingdong was completely defended. Even next year He was no longer afraid of the imperial court's massive crusade.
"Although I haven't seen this commander-in-chief, watching him use troops, he looks like a general. With such a hero, the east, west, and south of Beijing will be stable," Chen Dong said with admiration.
Song Jiang smiled and said, "Military advisor, immediately appoint Qingzhi as the magistrate of Shanzhou. He will be fully responsible for all the military affairs of Shanzhou. The Siping army can be expanded to ten thousand people. If there is not enough food and grass in the state, it will be shipped to him from the two warehouses in Dongping." !!”
"Yes." Wu Yong responded and said, "Brother, what about brother Qin Ming??"
"Brothers Qin and Ming have high prestige and seniority. Although the two of them cooperated well in this battle, they are not suitable to be under Qingzhi's command. In the name of convening a military aircraft for a great cause, he was asked to lead the army back to Liangshan and wait for arrangements!!"
"yes!!"
"Such a great joy should be conveyed to the entire village, so that everyone can understand that Qingzhi is absolutely qualified to be the leader."
"yes!!"
"What I'm most curious about now is that Jinan was lost and Yingtian was defeated, but the court seems a little too calm. Is there any news from Brother Jiang Jing?" At this time, Song Jiang suddenly said seriously.
"not yet??"
"Brother, I think our official probably doesn't know about Jingdong's situation yet." At this time, Chen Dong suddenly sighed.
"What does Shaoyang mean??"
"Now that the cold winter is coming, millions of grain and grass have been taken away, the capital and warehouses are empty, and the imperial court is unable to conquer at all. In this case, Cai Jing and others think, it is better to let the official family have a good year, and they can be prepared!!"
After hearing this, Gongsun Sheng on the side moved his eyes and said with a smile: "Shaoyang's words are very possible. If so, is this actually an opportunity?"
"Chance??"
"They kept it secret because they were afraid that the emperor would be angry and order a crusade, but the court was unable to do so at this time. With the New Year's Eve and the sudden bad news, the emperor would probably take action against them in anger."
"Sooner or later you will know about this kind of thing," Song Jiang said.
"Yes, we will know, but if it comes next spring, we can directly attack. At that time, it will just be a scolding."
“What does the military advisor mean??”
"Brother, now that Shanzhou has been taken, our army has formed a defense that stretches for hundreds of miles. We are starting to prepare to regain the inner state capital. Why don't we send people there now. If this is the case, see if we can use coercion to take the state capital. Take the position of Jingdong Jiedu Envoy!!"
Song Jiang was stunned, "Is this possible??"
"I think there is a 60% chance. Let the people sent tell me that my brother is loyal to the court and is willing to accept recruitment, but if he is not given, then this year will definitely be difficult for them!!" Gongsun Sheng said with a smile.
Chen Dong's face changed, and he supported: "Gongsun's strategy may be miraculous. Also, if you bring Liu Yu with you, it may be useful at a critical moment!!"
Song Jiang thought for a while and said, "Who should we send?"
"This person must not only be loyal, but also have a flexible mind and be calm in times of crisis. I think I will let Brother Li Ying go."
Upon hearing this, Wu Yong nodded and said: "Brother Li Ying is indeed capable. He is capable of literary and military skills, and he is extremely tactful. Although we may gain a lot this time, there are also many risks. If we are not careful, we may get into trouble." Bianjing"
After Song Jiang pondered for a moment, he said: "Then let Lu Fang go with us. He has made great progress recently. Let the grand master see my heroic general in Liangshan!"
"Brother is wise"
"Brother Gongsun and Shaoyang will be responsible for this matter. I heard that our grand master is a little greedy for money. Please prepare more gold and silver. I, Song Jiang, should take it as my gratitude to him," Song Jiang said with a smile.
"yes!!"
"Brother" At this time, Hua Rong walked in, cupped his fists and said, "Brother, Tieniu needs to see you in an emergency?"
When Song Jiang heard this, he was a little surprised and said: "Tieniu?"
"Exactly"
"Let him in," Song Jiang said. Since that time he personally taught him a lesson in front of all the top executives of the village, Li Kui's temper seems to have calmed down a lot, and he has stopped causing trouble.
Soon, Li Kui walked in.
"Tieniu, what's the matter with you?" Song Jiang asked warmly.
After Li Kui hesitated slightly, he said loudly: "Brother, I want to form an army."
