Chapter 605: Liangshan Descends, Shandong Ding (II)

Two days later, in front of Liangshan.

Even though there are still all kinds of doubts, even though many brothers are still reluctant, but in such a situation, the people of Liangshan still chose to go down the mountain and surrender.

At midnight, a group of Liangshan soldiers and horses had already walked down the mountain in an orderly manner with the weapons in their hands held high. Before and after coming to the officers and soldiers who were waiting for the battle, they all leaned down and put down their weapons, and then the whole team stood aside with their hands tied.

As the men and horses continued to descend the mountain, they all maintained absolute obedience, which made the officers and soldiers finally relax a little. Especially when a group of women, children, and old people followed, everyone was convinced of their sincerity in surrendering, because these people were the family members of the brothers of the cottage, and it was impossible for their families to take this risk if the other party was hostile.

So when Chao Gai, Song Jiang and other leaders finally went down the mountain, Sun Tu also led a group of subordinates to greet him with a smile: "It is really a blessing for the court that you can understand the righteousness so well, and it is also a blessing for the military and civilians of the whole territory of Shandong." You just have to rest assured, my Sun Tu will definitely be the talker, and I will never treat you slowly because of your previous mistakes. ”

"Sun Dujian can guarantee you like this, and my brothers will rest assured. From now on, everything will obey your orders. Chao Gai stepped forward to deal with it as the owner of Liang Shanzhai. Then, he turned to look at the thousands of brothers on the side who were still a little dazed: "Brothers, Chao Gai is incompetent, I can only take everyone to the court today, if you have any doubts, I have already negotiated with Sun Dujian, and everyone can leave at this time." ”

Although Sun Tu still had a smile on his face, there was a trace of dissatisfaction in his heart, obviously the other party's words were said to himself, and they were still guarding against their own rebellion. However, he did not reveal this emotion, and in the expectant eyes of a cadre of Liangshan people, he also stepped forward and said loudly: "Brothers on Liangshan, what the master of Chaozhai said is true, this official has indeed promised a long time ago that he will not be held accountable, and let you stay." But before I do that, I have a few heartfelt words to share with you. ”

Under the suspicious gaze of a cadre of soldiers, Sun Tu continued: "I know that most of the people in this cottage are forced to embark on the road of falling into the grass, and many of them have even suffered from the injustice and persecution of the government, and have even hated the government. But what I want to say is that this is not a reason for you to go into raiding and robbing your house.

"Look at yourself and your companions, which one is not a strong man in his prime, but he used all his skills to the evil way before, relying on bullying innocent people who are weaker than you to vent his dissatisfaction with the government and the court, is this what a hero should do?

"A manly man stands in this heaven and earth, even if he can't make a difference, he should know what to do and what not to do, so that he can live up to the shell given to you by his parents, otherwise what is the difference between you and those dog officials who are in the township and the corrupt officials?

"But since you have already submitted to me today, then you are not to blame for all the things you used to be, and I only hope that in the future you can change your past mistakes and do what a real man should do. Defend your country and kill foreign enemies! Now that my Great Song Dynasty has constant internal and external troubles, it is a good time for my generation to rise up and make meritorious contributions and kill the enemy to serve the country. To the north of us, there is a century-old enemy, the Liao State, and to the west of us, there is the Western Xia, which has been constantly provoking for decades, and the ghost is still lingering.

"My Sun Tu is here to assure you that when a foreign war starts one day, I will lead you to fight for the country and fight for a good future for your wife and son, which is not much stronger than you and others can only squat in the ravine and be a group of thieves who everyone hates and cannot see the light? Only in this way can I wait to come to this world for a while, even if I die on the battlefield, when I get below, I can also give an explanation to my parents and ancestors, so that when your children and grandchildren mention you, they can still pat their chests and say loudly to others that my father and my ancestors were great heroes who fought for my Han people for many years! ”

After saying this large paragraph, Liang Shanbo and those people didn't react much, but the officers and soldiers in the rear were already excited. As soon as Sun Tu's words fell, all the soldiers were already cheering and shouting: "I will swear to follow Sun Dujian to the death, kill foreign enemies, and protect our homeland!" ”

The roar soared into the sky, frightening the birds in the mountains to flee in all directions, and also invisibly increased the momentum of the officers and soldiers.

Sometimes emotions can be contagious, after hearing the voices and shouts of those officers and soldiers, many surrendered troops also began to move, and some people have already responded: "I...... I am also willing to follow Sun Dujian and kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions. ”

At first, there were dozens of people who responded like this, but soon, the response spread, and everyone responded one after another. Even some of the leaders on Liangshan couldn't help but say loudly: "We are also willing to follow Sun Dujian ......"

Song Jiang saw this scene and felt a little more understanding and awe of Sun Tu, this young man can not only train and lead troops, but even his eloquence to inspire the army is much stronger than himself, so it is not surprising that he and others are defeated under his hands.

Sun Tu was quite satisfied with the reaction of these people, he could see that the vast majority of Liangshan soldiers and horses were willing to submit to the imperial court, and as for the remaining handful of people, it was impossible for him to blame them all. So then, he smiled and said: "Of course, everyone has their own ambitions, if there is really anyone who can't stand the constraints of our army, my grandson will never leave difficulties, you can go by yourself." However, there is an ugly sentence I want to say ahead, you wait to leave here, you can only be a good citizen in the future, if you dare to commit crimes and do things that violate the law of the country, as long as it falls into the hands of this official, I will not spare you and others! ”

When this last sentence was spoken, Sun Tu raised his eyebrows, his eyes swept like lightning, and a wave of coercion directly shrouded the thousands of people in front of him, which made these thousands of Liangshan heroes who had been in war for a long time secretly feel cold, and cold sweat secretly appeared.

When he made his words clear, he let the surrendering army make their own choice.

Soon, the results were also presented, as Sun Tu judged, the vast majority of people here were still willing to submit to the imperial court, and only more than 300 people proposed to leave. Half of these people are over forty years old and are not suitable for re-entering the army, and the remaining half are obviously victims of the government, and they really can't trust the government, and would rather make a living elsewhere than join the army.

In this regard, Sun Tu did not mean to be reluctant at all, and immediately waved his hand and asked people to let these people leave.

It wasn't until they saw these people leave safely that the hearts of the other Liangshan people were completely relaxed, it seems that Sun Dujian is indeed a man of his word, so his own family is under his command, so naturally he doesn't have to worry about him settling accounts after the autumn.

After completing this most important thing, the official army officially took over the entire Liangshan Cottage. Except for some of the people who stayed in the barracks and were half-guarded by the newly descended Liangshan people, the others all went to the cottage to deal with the relevant objects in the cottage.

Although Chao Gai had already distributed all the belongings in the village to his brothers before descending the mountain, it was just ordinary gold, silver and jewelry, and it was impossible for them to divide all the other weapons, food, cloth, and other bits and pieces. So these things naturally became captured by the officers and soldiers after the war.

After removing all the available things in the entire cottage, leaving only an empty cottage still standing on Liangshan, Sun Tu did not hesitate to give the last order: "Set fire to this cottage!" ”

Soon, a soldier was already holding a torch and lighting it around the stockade, and in a few moments, a raging flame rose up, and then engulfed the whole cottageβ€”

The Juyi Hall and the martial arts arena in front, the granary and stable in the rear, and the large mansion where the brothers live in the back, are all surrounded by flames......

When they saw that the fire completely destroyed the entire cottage, Song Jiang Chaogai and the others all showed sadness and helplessness. Their back road has been completely cut off, even if they want to return to the cottage in the future, I am afraid that it will be difficult to create a Liangshan cottage in this situation.

"The past is gone, what we have to do next is to look forward, serve the imperial court, eradicate treachery, resist foreign enemies, and establish a greater deed!" Song Jiang quickly adjusted his mentality and quickly shouted at the brothers.

It's just that at this time, everyone is still in their own emotions, but there are few responders.

As the flagpole in front of the Juyi Hall was also burned by the fire, and the banner of "Walking for the Sky" hung on it was burned, Liang Shanbo finally came to the end, and their era was completely over.

Of course, this is only the end of the Liangshan bandits, for them, a new challenge has appeared, although the road ahead is bumpy, but it is much stronger than being a group of bandits.

As for Sun Tu, after suppressing the Liangshan bandits, there was no opponent in the entire Shandong region. Whether it is officialdom or the people, his prestige has reached its peak, and it is no longer possible for small Shandong to carry his ambitions and aspirations.

What's even better is that because of the dominance of the Liangshanbo family and the well-known relationship, in the past few years, all the people and horses in the small cottages in Shandong have rushed to defect, it can be said that once Liangshanbo is surrendered today, it means that Sun Tu has calmed down the entire green forest road in Shandong.

At least for a long time, there will be no more bandits in the whole of Shandong, and it can really be regarded as once and for all.

When he led the army to slowly leave Liangshanbo, Sun Tu unconsciously let out a long sigh of relief, and then his eyes became more resolute - there must be more difficulties and obstacles on the road ahead, but no matter who it is, he has the confidence to deal with it!
