"Zhangqiu has less than 500 troops, and most of them are new soldiers. General Wu leads an army of 3,000 tigers and wolves. It is impossible to resist. If the battle continues, it will only cause unnecessary casualties. As for me to serve as Zhangqiu County Magistrate, then It’s because the official feels that if the official continues to be the official, at least it will be of some help to the people. If the official is gone and another one is replaced, I don’t know what the result will be??”
"Wen Yao!!" Chai Jin frowned, his words were already mocking Liang Shan.
"It's okay." Song Jiang waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't be burdened by fame and don't be moved by profit. This is the word of a good minister."
Han Wenyao's eyes moved, he cupped his fists and said, "Brother, thank you for your praise."
"The bastard Qingtian is very valuable. Hu Yanzhuo is now commanding an army of five thousand in Zhangqiu. He is preparing to recover Zi and Qing prefectures when the weather warms up. Do you have any opinions?" Song Jiang said.
Han Wenyao's eyes narrowed, "I have some ideas, but I wonder if my brother can agree to a request?"
"Wenyao, you are so rude." Chai Jin was already a little angry. He valued Han Wenyao's talent and ability, but that did not mean that he could allow such supremacy. Now, even the secretaries up and down Liangshan dare not raise conditions with Song Jiang. , Lin Chong, Hu Yanzhuo, Wu Song and other tiger generals were a little trembling when Song Jiang was sinking. With the efforts of Su Jifang, the Liangshan army now only has Song Jiang in their hearts, and the propaganda of other people in Liangshan Zhi has stopped. Just to ensure Song Jiang's majesty.
Wang Su next to him also turned cold at this time. He only waited for Song Jiang to give the order, then pulled him out and chopped him down.
Song Jiang raised the corner of his mouth and said with a smile: "Tell me about it??"
Han Wenyao glanced at the worried Chai Jin, clasped his fists and said, "I have two friends who are in Qingzhou now. If the army takes Qingzhou, can you make sure not to hurt them?"
"What are the names of these two friends of yours??"
"The man's name is Zhao Mingcheng, and his father is the son of the late Zuo Pushe Zhao Tingzhi. The woman's name is Li Qingzhao, the daughter of Li Gefei, a foreign minister of the Ministry of Rites. They are one of the few close friends of the official, but they may have some misunderstandings about Liangshan. , so please forgive me, brother!!"
Song Jiang was slightly startled at this time and said in surprise: "Did you just say Li Qingzhao??"
"Exactly"
"She is in Qingzhou??"
Han Wenyao's expression changed, "Brother knows Qingzhao??"
"I've heard that this is a very talented woman." Song Jiang smiled, but he didn't expect that the most talented woman in history was actually in Qingzhou, which is a bit interesting.
Song Jiang thought for a while, nodded and promised: "Okay, I will personally order the protection of these two people, but I have to make one point clear. If they incite the people and be hostile to Liangshan because of their talent, what will be the consequences? There’s no need for me to say anything!!”
Nowadays, even Qin Hui, a traitor through the ages, is under his command, and the descendants of Zhe Yang's famous family are all his generals. What does a mere talented woman mean? ?
"I understand," Han Wenyao said immediately after his face changed slightly.
"Can you now tell me how to capture the two states of Ziqing?"
"Brother, Zizhou Zhizhou Yang Yin is greedy and cowardly. To regain Zizhou, we only need to bribe him with a lot of money, or he can win it directly without even using a single soldier!!"
“What about Qingzhou??”
"Qingzhou is probably a bit difficult," Han Wenyao said seriously.
"Why??"
Hearing this, Chai Jin on the side reminded: "Brother, on that day when the three mountains gathered for righteousness, the brothers entered Qingzhou and killed the prefect Murong Yanda. Because some of them were not controlled well, many innocent people were killed! !”
Song Jiang raised his eyebrows. Liangshan had changed a lot in the past year, and he had almost forgotten Song Jiang's past.
"So, the people of Qingzhou have a lot of resentment towards me, Liangshan," Song Jiang said with a frown.
"Yes, and the current Qingzhou Zhizhou Luo Zhiyong is even more arrogant. He has always wanted to seek revenge from Liangshan. When he heard that Jinan was lost, he wanted to send troops, but he was dissuaded by his subordinates. He will definitely stick to it of!!"
Song Jiang thought for a while and said: "If I had an official position appointed by the court, would the situation be better??"
"The imperial court" Han Wenyao glanced at him, shook his head slightly and said: "It's still a bit difficult, but we can use the imperial edict to disperse his subordinates and at the same time appease the people. In fact, although the people are dissatisfied, they are even more afraid. As long as we take Qingzhou Afterwards, if you win over wealthy businessmen and treat the people well, the things that happened in the past will naturally fade away!!"
"How do you think this battle should be fought??"
"Showing weakness, with Luo Zhizhou's arrogant character, as long as the army deliberately fakes defeat, he will definitely attack by surprise in order to achieve great success!!"
Song Jiang took a closer look and said: "If I let you serve as the military advisor of You Xiaowei, and also lead the governor of Qingzhou, and assist Hu Yanzhuo, can you help me win the land of these two states within one month next year?"
Han Wenyao's face hardened, and after a slight hesitation, he cupped his fists and said, "I am willing!!"
"Okay, don't go back these days. Stay with me for the time being," Song Jiang said with a smile.
"yes!!"
After the five people left, Song Jiang looked at Chai Jin and said: "He is a talented person. It is a bit aggrieved to be the Zhangqiu County Magistrate. Let's arrange someone else!!"
"Brother, he is a descendant of the Han family after all??"
"It's okay. Since Han Zhongyan stepped down, the Han family has long lost its prestige. In addition, he is a concubine. Didn't you see that he is actually holding a breath of anger in his heart? Don't worry, unless I, Liangshan, are defeated. Otherwise, he won’t rebel.” After Song Jiang said that, he picked up the book next to him again and said, “Tomorrow I’m going to the newly established Jinan Gunpowder Workshop and let him accompany me!!”
Chai Jin's expression changed and he immediately said: "Yes!!"
In the evening, when Song Jiang was about to take a rest, Wang Su suddenly walked in, cupped his fists and said: "Brother, Yu Wenling, the flag chief of the Jinan branch of the intelligence room, has something urgent to ask for!!"
When Song Jiang heard this, he was a little surprised. Now the intelligence room is divided into two parts. One part is for inquiring information and is sent outside. The other part is stationed in the state capital to monitor whether officials violate laws and disciplines or are disloyal to Song Jiang. However, the Jinan branch The leader is Hou Xing. Logically speaking, a mere team leader is not qualified to report to him directly.
After thinking about it, Song Jiang glanced at Wang Su.
Wang Su suddenly felt a little embarrassed and said: "Brother makes atonement. He used to be my good friend, but now it seems that he is really in an emergency!!"
Song Jiang took a look and said warmly: "Since I'm familiar with you, let him come in."
"Thank you brother"
Soon, a man with cold eyes hurried over. After seeing Song Jiang, he knelt down on one knee and saluted: "I pay my respects to my brother."
You must know that the braid is not clear now, kneeling down can be considered a very important ceremony.
"No need to be polite, what do you want?" Song Jiang said.
"Brother, I discovered that General Wu Song finally got very close to the second lady of the Liu family, and even chatted with Liu Xian, the old man of the Liu family, for a quarter of an hour in the study!!"
"chat??"
"Liu Xian told General Wu Song that the current situation in the Song Dynasty was all caused by treacherous ministers, but the officials were still kind," Yu Wenling said coldly.
Song Jiang raised his eyebrows and said, "You have found out the content of what they said."
"My younger brother arranged for someone to directly enter the Liu Mansion. He heard all this with his own ears. My elder brother can also directly ask General Wu Song for inquiries."
"Does Hou Xing know??"
"I know, but Commander Hou feels that General Wu Song's loyalty to his brother is unquestionable, and the subordinates' worries are just unfounded!!"
"Haha, such unfounded worries. If the intelligence room continues like this, I, Song Jiang, may be murdered one day, and they don't even know yet," Song Jiang sneered.
Upon hearing this, Wang Su's face trembled and he looked at Yu Wenling with some seriousness.
