Zhao Desheng and Peng Hu came back, and the two told in detail what they heard, and Song Jiang and the other four had a general understanding of the power of Liu Neng, the bully in Baixia Town.

It turned out that there was a village called Baixia Village about a mile away from Baixia Town, and there was an old scholar surnamed Pan in the village who was very knowledgeable, and was recognized as the most learned scholar in Fangyuan Village, and was quite respected by the villagers.

He is not only familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, but also proficient in account building, bookkeeping, and financial management, and was once hired by a large family as a bookkeeper with a high salary, but he can't get used to the exploitation of the villagers by these bloodsuckers, so he resigned and went home. Now he teaches some students in the village while farming, and the whole village respectfully calls him Professor Pan.

The professor has no children under his knees, only two daughters, and the eldest daughter Pan Yuechan has a good article and a good handwriting, which ordinary men can't see, although she is still unmarried in the cabinet at the age of twenty this year. The second daughter, Pan Yuejuan, is seventeen this year and is married to Wang Tiezhu, the son of the blacksmith Wang of Baixia Town.

Liu Neng's son Liu Fugui saw Pan Yuejuan in the town a few days ago and was going to accept her as a concubine, but Wang Tiezhu stopped him, so he instructed his subordinates to injure Tiezhu and smash the iron shop. Sent the bride price to the Pan family, saying that the day after tomorrow would go to marry, otherwise the Pan family would be burned.

This Liu Neng is the distant nephew of Liu Gao in Qingfeng Village, raising some thugs, plus his nephew Liu Feng leads some splashing skins, usually relying on Liu Gao's power, in the name of maintaining law and order in Baixia Town, in fact, he occupies the land in the town, and makes a blessing and might, everyone grits his teeth with hatred, but he dares to be angry but dare not speak.

Originally, concubines generally didn't hold banquets, but Liu Neng posted to the people with heads and faces in the entire town. One is to collect more gifts, and the other is to demonstrate to the whole town, to see how capable I am Liu Neng, and those who oppose me will not end well in the future.

"A distant nephew who knows the village dares to do such evil, if it is to climb Cai Jing, Gao Yu and others, will others survive? I don't know how many such evil forces there are in the country, Liu Neng we will get rid of them, and return the people to a sunny day! ”

Song Jiang patted the table angrily and said: "Zhao Desheng, Peng Hu, I see that you have a future for exploring intelligence, from today onwards, select a dozen clever people to form a group, and in the future, you two will be the head, and from now on you will investigate every move in Baixia Town." ”

"Yes, Brother Song!" The two bowed and retreated.

"Alright brothers, now let's discuss the plan to attack Baixia Town."

Song Jiang looked at the three brothers and said, "How do you think you fight?" ”

"We just know what the plan will be."

"We will fight as much as my brother says!"

"That's right! I think my brother already has a plan, you can just say it! ”

Song Jiang pondered for a moment and said, "How many carriages and horses can the cottage prepare now?" ”

Yan Shun silently calculated for a moment and said: "We have more than thirty carriages that have been robbed to pull goods, all of which are idle in the back mountain, if Brother Song can use it, how can he get forty or fifty cars when he collects them." It's just that these horses are scarce, and if they are used to pull carts, there are not many horses for us to ride. ”

"Prepare fifty wagons, and pull them all by hand without horses. Horses were used to improvise a cavalry team, using maneuverability to cover the cart-pulling team. The day after tomorrow is Liu Fugui's big day, and our brothers also went to join in the fun. The day after tomorrow, I am ready to divide my troops into four ways to take Baixia Town. Now the specific division of labor of the action is explained to the brothers clearly, this time the brothers need to divide and cooperate, so we must keep in mind our own tasks, and we must not take it lightly, and ruin the entire cottage plan in our own links. ”

"Please rest assured, our brothers are the arrows in my brother's hands, we will shoot in whichever direction you draw the bow, and there will never be the slightest deviation."

"That's good!"

Song Jiang said to Yan Shun: "The first route is led by the Yan Shun brothers, and your task is to sneak into Professor Pan's house by surprise, wait for the marrying team to come to his house, and then quickly take down Liu Fugui and other marrying relatives." Then he snatched the clothes and costumes of his relatives, pretended to be a marrying team to enter Liu's mansion, and started at the same time as the second road soldiers and horses. The success of the Yan Shun brothers is the key to this light operation, so you have to leave a few brothers behind and control the villagers who know about this until you successfully enter the Liu Mansion. ”

Yan Shun arched his hand when he heard this: "Brother, don't worry, Yan Shun will not ruin my brother's plan!" ”

"Brothers, I am very relieved. It's just that this is a team action, and you must restrain your brothers under you, don't cause trouble, and all subtle actions must be under your command. ”

Song Jiang said and took a ghost mask to Yan Shun and said, "Put it on and see the effect." ”

Yan Shun Zhang's King Kong was confused, and he was still assigning tasks just now, and in the blink of an eye, he let him wear a ghost mask. In hesitation, he picked up the mask and put it on his face, but listened to Song Jiang say: "Not bad! It's quite mighty! ”

Wang Ying and Zheng Tianshou burst out laughing when they heard this, Yan Shun took off his mask and said with a smile: "If you grab a sedan chair, you will grab a sedan chair, what does my brother want me to wear a mask for?" ”

Song Jiang said: "Of course you will be asked to play the groom official, otherwise if you are like this, you will be recognized if you can't get to Liu's mansion." ”

Isn't this a cover-up? Yan Shun was shocked when he heard this: "But marrying is a festive thing, how can there be any reason to wear a mask?" Isn't wearing a ghost mask telling people that we're pretending? ”

"Brother Yan Shun is too worried, not only will others not doubt this move, but they will be even more convinced."

Song Jiang explained: "General Di Qing fought bravely and invincible, he would wear a ghost mask every time he went out, and he was called 'General Mian Ni', and the young and strong people were vying to imitate it at that time. After he was wronged and died depressed, the world was sad and indignant, and they all wore ghost masks to commemorate the heroes, which became a fashion for a while. If you wear a mask and marry, others will be proud of the bridegroom, how can they doubt it? ”

Seeing that the three of them breathed a sigh of relief, Song Jiang continued: "The second route is led by the Wang Ying brothers, and your task is very direct, that is, to take advantage of the opportunity of the sedan chair to enter Liu Mansion and Liu Feng's residence, and quickly control Liu Neng and Liu Feng. Of course, the Wang Ying brothers and their brothers had to dress up, such as beggars, guests, spectators, and performers...... In short, pretending to be people from all walks of life, hiding sharp blades and ambushing around Liu's mansion. When the sedan chair arrives at the door, the salute is the signal, and the action is immediately. If Liu Gao, the Zhizhai of Qingfeng Village, also goes to congratulate him, he will also take it together, and it will save us from using our brains to clean him up. ”

Wang Yingyi arched his hand and said: "Brother, don't worry, brother will definitely take down Liu's Mansion!" ”

Song Jiang nodded and said, "I led the third road soldiers and horses to respond in the back and block all the intersections, in case someone escaped to report to Qingfeng Village, cutting off our back road." After getting the information about controlling Liu Neng and others, I led some people into Baixia Town to interrogate Liu Neng. At the same time, the fifty carriages accompanying the army quickly entered Liu Neng's house to move him and transport fine and soft grains and rice to Qingfeng Village. ”

Wang Ying suddenly said: "Public trial? How will my brother try this public trial? What does the county master look like? ”

"Brother has his own arrangement, what are you anxious about!"

Zheng Tianshou glanced at Wang Ying, who had a lot of questions, and said: "The three elder brothers have tasks, how can they leave their brothers alone?" Isn't it a brother who is not good at martial arts, or who is reckless by nature and will make a bad plan? ”

"Brother, don't worry, how can you not let your brother appear in such a big play. Seeing that you are careful and steady, I have left you a very important task. ”

Before Song Jiang finished speaking, Wang Ying answered: "What's the hurry!" Didn't you hear my brother say that the four soldiers and horses took Baixia Town lightly? ”

It's really a few living treasures, Zheng Tianshou just took Wang Ying's army, and Wang Ying will return it immediately. After Song Jiang smiled slightly, he suddenly said with a serious face: "Brother Zheng's task is arduous, it is a matter of cottage comfort, and there can be no carelessness." No matter what happens, you have to carry out your task resolutely, and you can't make another difference, or I will replace you! ”

Seeing that Song Jiang said seriously, the three of them also changed their smiling appearance, Zheng Tianshou was even more cautious, and arched his hand: "Brother will not disgrace his mission!" ”
