Chapter 61: Persuasion to surrender Liangshan

Lu Junyi and Zhu Wu held Zhao Ming's letter and found a small boat to go to Liangshan.

In the Juyi Hall, Song Jiang and the remaining leaders of Liangshan sat down and welcomed Lu Junyi and Zhu Wu in.

Before Lu Junyi and the others could stand still, Wang Ying jumped on the stool and said, "Look, our Lu Yuanwai is back, amazing, he can come back from King Wu unharmed, but I don't know where my Liangshan Qianerlang is?" ”

Lu Junyi's face sank, and he was about to say something, but Zhu Wu, who was beside him, pulled Lu Junyi and said to himself: "Lord Wuwang wants to recruit my Liangshan brother to serve the country, so he sent the two of us to convey." ”

Saying that, Zhu Wu took out Zhao Ming's letter, and said, "This is a letter written by Lord Wu Wang to his brother. ”

Hearing this, Wang Ying couldn't help jumping up and down: "Could it be that the two of you have already lowered the Martial King?" Have you two forgotten how many brothers fell into the hands of the Martial King? ”

Zhu Wu said in a deep voice: "The two armies are fighting, and casualties are inevitable, could it be that the dignified Martial King wants to stretch his neck and let you have a bantam tiger to cut it?" Besides, if we were afraid of death, how could we do the thing of leading 5,000 rabble to attract 3,000 elite cavalry? However, Brother Gongming was defeated, how could my 5,000 rabble resist the enemy and win the King of Martial Arts? There was no war spirit inside, no reinforcements outside, and the outside couldn't bear the death of 5,000 innocent sons, so they had to surrender. ”

Zhu Wu's words expressed his dissatisfaction with Wu Yong's dog-headed military advisor, what kind of bad idea did he come up with? He also expressed the helplessness of himself and Lu Junyi, you are all defeated, where do we still have a way to live and hope? If you don't want us to surrender, you can save us!

Song Jiang saw that the two of them were getting stiffer and stiffer the more they talked, so he hurriedly snorted, took the letter in Zhu Wu's hand, and said: "It's all my own brothers, if it's not for my Song Jiang's unwillingness to save the staff, it's really a big defeat, my Liangshan is greatly injured, demoralized, and can't fight anymore. ”

As he spoke, he quietly opened Zhao Ming's letter, glanced at ten lines, read it three times, and then put it down, looked at Zhu Wu and Lu Junyi, and asked expressionlessly: "What do you think of King Wu's recruitment of An, what do you think of the staff and the Zhu Wu brothers?" ”

Zhu Wu asked rhetorically: "My brother has already read King Wu's letter, and the matter of recruiting An, my brother is the chief leader of my Liangshan, and my brother will decide by his words." ”

Song Jiang said: "Song Jiang has no idea in his heart about this matter, and he wants to listen to the opinions of the brothers in the audience. ”

Zhu Wu scolded secretly, Song Jiang kicked the ball to him, and he kicked it back to Song Jiang, but Song Jiang came to play a scoundrel, "I don't know." Zhu Wu had no choice but to say: "Although there are aliens entering the prison today, but the people are also living and working in peace and contentment, and the court situation is stable, dare to ask my brother and all the brothers, we have been eating meat and drinking wine in a big bowl in this Liangshan, do we really have a way to live?" Don't talk about it far away, just say that Lord Wuwang may not allow me to wait for another time. ”

As soon as these words fell, many leaders in the hall were unhappy and scolded, among which Ruan Xiaoqi was the loudest: "Grandpa doesn't believe that King Wu has three heads and six arms?" Even if he is three-headed and six-armed, when he arrives in this pool of water, his grandfather wants him to drink his grandfather's footwashing water. ”

After listening to Ruan Xiaoqi's words, everyone burst into laughter. Several leaders of their navy army did not participate in the battle of King Wu, and they did not understand the soldiers of the Longxi army, and they were indeed confident, no matter how powerful King Wu was, they could not take them on the water.

Wang Ying echoed: "What Brother Seventh said is reasonable, Zhu Wu, if you surrender, then the Martial King will help the Martial King to scare the brothers, there is no way to live?" Joke, how could Nuoda Shuibo Liangshan not have my brother's way to live? ”

Zhu Wu was not angry, and asked rhetorically, "Where is the way to live?" ”

Wang Ying was stunned, touching his head and not understanding the meaning of Zhu Wu's question, only to hear Zhu Wu smile contemptuously: "You Wang Ying don't have any brains, don't touch it, it doesn't matter if you don't understand, ask this Wu military division, Liangshan has a way to live." ”

Wang Ying said angrily: "I don't want to take advantage of your words," and said, really went to ask Wu Yong: "Military advisor, do you tell me if I have a way to live in Liangshan?" ”

Wu is bitter in his heart, and he is a pot, how to answer?

It is said that there is a way to live, where is the way to live?

said that there is no way to live, this pot is too big. As long as he dared to say that there was no way to live, Zhu Wu would not say anything, and Song Jiang would dare to follow his words to persuade the brothers to surrender and be recruited. How does this make him account for the brothers who were killed? The three brothers of the Ruan family are friends of Liu Tang, and they also have a good personal relationship with Liu Tang, Liu Tang is dead, and he still has to carry the pot that was recruited, how to gain a foothold among the brothers in the future?

couldn't afford it, Wu Yong had no choice but to think, bow his head and ponder.

Zhu Wu saw that Wu Yong looked deflated, smiled in his heart, and quietly pushed Lu Junyi, at this moment it was time for Lu Junyi to stand up and say a few words.

Lu Junyi comprehended and raised his voice and said: "Brothers, most of the people here are martial artists like me, Lu Junyi, what's the use of learning martial arts?" Isn't it just to be a hero and a hero to protect his family and defend the country? Today's imperial court is the time to use troops, and the northern alien races have risen up in great wars, killing our people and occupying our rivers and mountains. We really shouldn't be here to plunder and drag the back of the imperial court, but on the northern battlefield, with guns in hand and crotch dismounting, fighting with foreign races, even if the horse leather shroud, it is not a pleasant thing. ”

After a pause, he said: "Although Lord Wuwang has many misunderstandings with me Liangshan, the king is only 15 years old and has a heart of worrying about the country and the people, which makes Lu a good student to admire, Lu asks himself a good martial arts, and he is really unwilling to waste here." Therefore, Lu has decided to enter the mansion of the martial king, and would rather be a pawn, but also go to the north with the king to kill Hu Ligong, so that my martial arts will not be useless. Brothers, listen to Lu's advice, the king is right, heroes and heroes should protect their families and defend the country. ”

Wang Ying was the first to disagree, jumped up and shouted: "King Wu killed me and waited for so many brothers, you can't just forget it." ”

Lu Junyi said: "Before I came, the king said that if the brothers misunderstood the king and did not want to join the king's command, the king would naturally not force everyone. Everything is voluntary, as long as everyone agrees to go to the north to kill Hu, the king will guarantee us to the court, and everything will not be blamed for the past. ”

There are many leaders in Liangshan, and there are many factions, and in general they are divided into three major factions. Song Jiang faction, Lu Junyi faction, and general faction.

Not to mention the Song Jiang and Lu Junyi factions, the general faction is a faction headed by Guan Sheng and Hu Yanzhuo, which is relatively neutral, and in his previous life, he was a relatively enthusiastic person about Zhao'an.

There are also countless small factions under the three major factions, such as Zhu Wu and Shi Jin's Shaohuashan foursome; For example, the Ruan brothers plus Liu Tang and others are the patriarchs; Sun Xin, Sun Li, Xie Zhen, and Xie Bao's Dengzhou faction.

At this moment, after listening to Lu Junyi's words, Guan Sheng and Hu Yanzhuo's hearts had already moved, although Lu Junyi's faction only had Cai Fu and Cai Qing, the two of them were Lu Junyi's iron fans, and immediately stood up and echoed Lu Junyi: "My two brothers are willing to join the army and kill Hu Ligong." ”

Song Jiang saw that someone was carrying the pot, and then said: "What the staff said is very true, Song Jiang is often worried about the future of my Liangshan brothers, and I really can't bear to see the brothers do a lifetime of grass and grass, and now the situation, my Liangshan has no way out, Mengwu Wang is righteous, and is willing to protect me and other brothers to the court, Song Jiang is willing to surrender, this matter is also to save the useful body of the brothers." ”

When Lu Junyi saw that this matter was done, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly said to Song Jiang: "Brother Dayi, Lu represents the tens of thousands of brothers who have survived in Liangshan, thank you brother." ”

Zhu Wu said on the side: "Please also ask my brother to lead the brothers down the mountain as soon as possible, write a descent table with the king, and present it to the imperial court, waiting for the imperial court's holy decree to recruit peace." ”

Wang Ying saw that things would turn out like this, and said in a hurry: "Brother Gongming must not go down the mountain, that King Wu is scheming, and he must be trying to trick the brothers of the family into going down the mountain and harm me and other brothers." ”

When Lu Junyi heard this, he couldn't bear to scold: "Wang Ying, stop, who is King Wu?" Back then, King Wu believed that he was the number one hero in the world, and as the son of King Xin, how could the king do such a thing? You Wang Ying don't know that the sky is high and the earth is thick, and you have repeatedly offended the king, but now it's okay, if you dare to do this in the future, my Liangshan brothers can't protect you, it doesn't matter if you die, I'm afraid that I will hurt my brothers and other brothers. ”

Where would Wang Ying listen to Lu Junyi, and persuade Song Jiang bitterly, Song Jiang saw this, and said with a cold face: "I have made up my mind, for the sake of the life of all the brothers, Song Jiang has no choice, Wang Ying has to say more, otherwise Song Jiang will not spare you." ”

Song Jiang didn't believe that Zhao Ming would use this excuse to trick him into going down the mountain, don't say Song Jiang, even Wu Yong, the blackest in Liangshan, didn't believe it, Zhao Ming and the reputation of the Wuwang Mansion represented by his father have always been very good.

In order to avoid long nights and dreams, Song Jiang, Zhu Wu, and Lu Junyi prepared for a day, and immediately led the brothers down the mountain.

And since Zhao Ming sent Lu Junyi and Zhu Wu away, he began to form his 5,000-strong water army.

Before and after the two battles, thousands of prisoners, plus Lu Junyi led 5,000 men and horses to surrender, these are all young and strong, the source of soldiers is enough, Zhao Ming made people pick out those who have no family and worry as much as possible, after all, this team is going to return to Longxi with him, and it is inevitable that there will be too many worries for a long time, and he is homesick.

The navy army has no effect on Zhao Ming at the moment, and he does not have any generals under him, but for the future, prepare 5,000 sailors first, who knows when it will be useful, anyway, it is also a quota given by the imperial court for free.

As for the generals, although the eight naval leaders in Liangshan are barely good, it is still two to say whether they can be dug up. And in the future, it is going to conquer the world, and the eight of Liangshan, I'm afraid it's not enough to see.

It is good to dig one of the eight, and temporarily lead the water army to be stationed and trained in Weishui, the general trend of the world, who knows when there will be a place where the water army will be useful.

In the past few days, the officials from various counties came to visit him, and there were many scholars, and Zhao Ming could only be tired of coping, so he had to temporarily hand over the affairs of the navy to Wang to take care of.

On this day, as soon as a few gentry were sent away, they heard that Lu Junyi had sent someone to report that Song Jiang had agreed to be recruited, and Zhao Ming was overjoyed and ordered to prepare to welcome Song Jiang and others.

Another day, Song Jiang led the leaders of Liangshan to land and came to the army of King Wu's mansion.
