Liangshan Village, all the leaders of the cottage stared at the battle situation of the water village below with frightened and inexplicable expressions, they would never have dreamed that in just one night, everything would be turned upside down, and the three water villages that they regarded as the strongest reliance and defense line would actually fall into such a desperate situation!

Last night, when the fire suddenly broke out with the sound of killing, everyone on the mountain had already run out to find out, and Song Jiang had immediately sent people to the three water villages to inquire about the situation - due to the influence of darkness and distance, the people in the mountain villages could not really grasp the battle situation below.

Then soon after, terrible news came back one after another, first the Xizhai had been lost, the three leaders did not know whether they were alive or dead, and even the brother who went down the mountain to inquire about the situation was almost caught by the official army, and it was easy to run back to the mountain. Subsequently, there was also bad news that Zhang Shun was captured and Zhang Heng had no choice but to open the door and surrender......

When these two news were transmitted back to the cottage one after another, the brothers in the village immediately exploded, many people shouted that they wanted to go down the mountain to kill the enemy, and Chao Gai, who had not healed from his old injuries, vomited blood because of his anger, and fell into a coma on the spot, which made Song Jiang suddenly in a hurry, while treating Chao Gai, while appeasing the brothers, trying their best to suppress everyone's reckless actions, and finally regained control of the situation.

In fact, as long as the cool-headed people understand Song Jiang's good intentions, at this time, the army in the village is in turmoil, and once the brothers who are not the opponents of the official army really go to the rescue, they will only fall into the hands of the enemy, and nine times out of ten it will be a loss of soldiers, which will only make the situation worse and worse.

And after spending this unpredictable night in agony, when the sky was bright and everyone looked down on the water village below, everyone realized that a greater crisis had come. The officers and soldiers have actually gathered all their forces to aim at the only remaining Dongzhai, and as soon as they look at the arrangement of those fireships, many people have already guessed their true intentions, and this situation is already unsolvable!

"Brother, how is this good? We have to think of ideas, we can't see that even Dongzhai has fallen, and we have put Li Jun and other brothers in! This time, everyone was really anxious, even Hua Rong couldn't help but scream, and some brothers who were good friends with Li Jun and others were also impatient, and once again proposed to take the initiative to go down the mountain to support Dongzhai.

"Brother, in the opinion of the younger brother, we might as well take this opportunity to send troops from the southwest and take back those two water villages first!" Huang Xin is the most calm-minded person among the brothers on the mountain, and he also put forward the most reasonable suggestion at this time: "Looking at the posture of the official army, we should have put all the naval forces that can be invested in front of Dongzhai, and the other two villages are bound to be empty now, and we are just using troops." ”

"What Brother Huang Xin said is very true." Wu Yong also hurriedly agreed: "And as long as we recapture these two water villages, we can rescue Dongzhai again, which can reverse the current situation." ”

Song Jiang quickly weighed and thought in his heart, and finally nodded and said, "What you said is, just do it." Tell the brothers to prepare to kill and retake the stockade! ”

But at the same time as he gave this order, several black smoke had already billowed up from the northwest and northwest directions, and then the sky-high flames continued to rise from the two water villages. When everyone screamed, Song Jiang's entire body trembled, and his face was even more difficult to see: "Sun Tu, you are so ruthless!" ”

Unexpectedly, Sun Tu didn't give them a chance to turn the tables at all, and actually let people set fire to two stockades at this time. In this way, these two water villages will be completely destroyed, even if the people of Liangshan are really desperate to kill down the mountain and recapture these two places, what is left for them is only a ruin, I am afraid that even the ships may not be able to find a few, so they will naturally not be able to rescue Dongzhai with this.

Everyone who was about to descend the mountain was dumbfounded, and at this time they didn't know what to do at all. Someone shouted loudly: "Since the officers and soldiers have deployed heavy troops in our water village, the military camp under the mountain must be empty, why don't we take this opportunity to attack their main camp, so that they can not only force them to retreat, but maybe also win." ”

Although many people responded to these words, Song Jiang Wu Yong and the others shook their heads with a wry smile, this was simply an unrealistic delusion, because it was impossible for them to kill them from Liangshan Village for a while.

On the way down the village, there is still a pass that is difficult for apes to cross. That pass not only cut off the possibility of the official army attacking the mountain, but also completely cut off the possibility of the Liangshan army going down the mountain. Even if they quickly rebuild the bridge at this time, it will not be able to succeed in a moment, and with that time, the officials and soldiers would have already knocked down Dongzhai.

For such a moment, Song Jiang and the others actually had a little regret in their hearts, knowing that this was the case, they should not have cut off the ape and could not cross, and only borrowed a few checkpoints behind to resist the official army. Now, this is really like lifting a stone and shooting yourself in the foot, but trapping thousands of people in your own house to death on top of the cottage.

"This can't do it, that's not possible, are we just seeing Dongzhai completely lost? Brother, we have to come up with an idea to save people......"

"Yes, save people, save people first and then mention others!" Song Jiang reacted violently, and after only a moment, he had already made a decision, and immediately called a brother and hurriedly ordered a few words. Although everyone was a little unacceptable to such a result, it seemed that there was no better choice now, and in the end they all acquiesced to his arrangement.

After a while, this Song Jiang henchman hurried down the mountain, came to Dongzhai, and saw Li Jun, who was undecided. At this time, a long time has passed since Sun Tu's ultimatum, seeing that the official army is about to raise fire, everyone in the water village is also uncertain, and when he sees someone coming down from the village, he hurriedly looks at him, Li Jun is even more anxious to ask: "Brother Gongming, is there anything you can do?" ”

"Brother Gongming has an order, let Leader Li give up Dongzhai and lead his brother back to the mountain to think of another way."

This decision made everyone stunned, obviously everyone didn't expect Song Jiang to give such a countermeasure. But after thinking about it carefully, Li Jun still agreed that this was not a solution, this was the best idea to ensure that the brothers would not be harmed, as for Dongzhai, it could only be left for later to think about taking it back.

At this time, the shouts of the officials and soldiers sounded outside: "Master Li Zhai, have you made a decision?" If we are willing to surrender, we will quickly open the gate of the wall, and if we don't make a sound, we can only attack with fire! ”

Li Jun secretly hated in his heart, and at the same time, he had already quickly had a countermeasure, while asking people to quickly gather and retreat to the mountain road behind, while he himself ran to the bamboo building in front of the stockade, and shouted at the officers and soldiers outside: "The matter has come to this, I, Li Jun, admit defeat, and only ask Sun Dujian not to harm the lives of my brothers." ”

"Sun Dujian has always been merciful, as long as you wait for your sincere surrender, I will not embarrass you and wait. Not only that, but we can also ask the court for orders and make you and others officials. The answer on the other side was dry.

But Li Jun put forward his own conditions: "It's okay if I want to open the village and surrender, but you need to withdraw those fireships first." It's not that I can't believe Sun Dujian's sincerity, but it is about the safety of hundreds of brothers in the village, and I can't help but be cautious. If you take advantage of the situation and set fire to the boat when I open the gate, we will die without a place to be buried! ”

In response to this request, the soldier who passed the message naturally could not make the decision, so he could only hurry back to report and see what his own thoughts were.

When Shan Tingqi and the others heard this request, some people doubted Li Jun's purpose: "Eunuch, could this be a delaying tactic by the thieves?" I always feel that their requests are a little strange. ”

"At this point, does procrastination solve anything? Now that the two villages in the northwest have all been destroyed by us, even if the thieves on Liangshan want to go down and rob it, it is useless, and we are even more determined to win it here in Dongzhai, even if we give him two or three days, it will be useless, not to mention that it will only take half an hour. Sun Tu smiled and waved his hand and said, "Since they have a request, we will show them our sincerity, pass on our military order, and withdraw the fireboat to the rear first." But brothers, don't let your guard down, I've got bows and arrows ready. After doing all this, I will urge them to open the gate. ”

At that moment, the officers and soldiers quickly moved here, and the fireboats that had been set up before slowly dispersed and retreated to the rear. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the defenders in the village had quickly withdrawn along the mountain road under the leadership of Li Jun. It was only because of the hasty retreat that they could no longer care about taking other things with them, and many weapons, armor, and ships were left in place, and they did not even dare to burn them, for fear that once the smoke rose, the officers and soldiers would know their purpose.

When the fireboat was withdrawn and the officers and soldiers sent people to urge, there was already a dead silence in the stockade, and no one responded at all. When the soldier shouted a few more times, but still no one answered, he noticed that the situation had changed, and hurried back to report it.

And when Sun Tu sent people to kill the village, and even climbed the wall of the village with ropes and looked inside, everyone was surprised to find that this water village was empty, and there was not even a ghost shadow. Hundreds of people here actually fled up the mountain under the noses of the officials and soldiers!

This result made everyone angry, and they scolded the thieves for being cunning and untrustworthy. It was Sun Tu, who didn't laugh angrily after looking around before coming to the village: "This Li Jun is a character, he actually knows how to preserve his strength and take the initiative to retreat." But even so, it's not a bad thing for us, at least in this way, we don't have to spend a single soldier to take down a water village from them again. In this way, Liangshan Shan Zhai has been completely destroyed by me and me, so can he still hold the last cottage? ”

Everyone reacted to these words, and then the previous anger turned back into joy. Yes, although the enemy retreated, he still won a key victory, and this time, the official army broke through the three most difficult water villages in Liangshan overnight at the smallest cost, which was really a rare victory.

And then, it's time to think about how to rely on this to launch an attack on Liangshan Benzhai.
