The night of riots in Jeju City did not calm down until early in the morning, but news soon spread through the streets.

The most sensational news is that several important members of the government - the prefect, the general judge, etc. all died in the chaos, according to the Qingshenglou guys, last night, at about midnight, a team of black-clothed people surrounded the restaurant, and then there was a chaos upstairs, and when it was dawn, they went upstairs, but found that several adults were exhausted.

The second more shocking news was that the more than 10,000 troops of the imperial court stationed in the city disappeared overnight. Even the hundreds of sailors outside the city were all gone, and soon after news came into the city, and the camp of officers and soldiers south of the city was also burned to ashes.

What kind of person is this big deal? The people of the city all had such doubts in their hearts, but then people all thought about Liangshan Manor. Except for Liangshan Manor, no one has such ability, and only when the people of Liangshan Manor enter the city, can they, the common people, be spared from being disturbed. As a result, people's hearts gradually calmed down, and many people even celebrated openly because of the removal of corrupt officials.

The sudden appearance of a management vacuum immediately gave some lawbreakers an opportunity to take advantage of, but what the people of the city did not expect was that the Poison Dragon Gang, which was usually the primary underworld force, suddenly came out to preside over justice, and in the streets and alleys, all those who did evil were severely punished. In the end, Jeju City won a rare peace by relying on the protection of the notorious Poison Dragon Gang in the past.

The news of the destruction of Jeju City reached the Lijia Daokou on the second day, Gao Yu was shocked when he heard that the old nest had been copied, and at this time Wang Huan and Mei Zhan had not returned for a long time, and his subordinates also made Zhang in Zhongshan Anpingjie

The 20,000 horses of the two divisions of Han Cunbao, as well as the 10,000 forbidden troops led by Dang Shiying, were 30,000 in total. For a while, he was flustered and didn't dare to stay at the Li family crossing for a long time, so he hurriedly gathered everyone to discuss countermeasures.

"I didn't think that this time the Liangshan thieves used the strategy of attacking the east and the west, and they took advantage of the topography of the Li family crossing to create the illusion of a decisive battle with this to attract the army of Taiwei here. Then the heavy troops broke through Jeju, and at the moment, it seems that even if the generals Xu Jing, Li Congji, and Xiang Yuanzhen escaped, I am afraid that there will not be many soldiers left. Wang Huan and Mei Zhan, the two generals, have not returned so far, it seems that they are also more than auspicious, there are only more than 30,000 people left in the camp at the moment, and if Liangshan is waiting for the two soldiers and horses of Jeju and Yuncheng to come to help, then our army is in danger! I didn't think that the captain had to make a decision early, otherwise it would be too late. ”

At this time, it was Han Cunbao who came out to reply. This Han Cunbao is a remarkable figure in "Water Margin", he is the nephew of Han Zhongyan, the old lady of the dynasty, but he does not rely on the wealth of the family, the officialdom is relied on, and he is still on the bloody battlefield. What's even more memorable is the wonderful battle between him and Hu Yanzhuo, he fought Hu Yanzhuo for more than 50 rounds, forcing Hu Yanzhuo to sell a flaw and leave, and then the two dismounted and fought on foot, which can be said to be a character who can be completely comparable to the five tigers of Liangshan.

As soon as Han Cunbao finished speaking, another general, Zhang Kai, also suggested that it would be better to retreat as soon as possible, and wait for the arrival of the imperial court to delay the arrival of the army before making a decisive attack. In the original book, he shot Zhang Qing's war horse with an arrow, Zhang Qing who fought lightly with a spear, and in the encirclement of Qin Ming and Guan Sheng, he protected the injured Mei Zhan and successfully broke through, and then the whole army was defeated, and he was only one of the four generals who stood out from the encirclement, which shows that his wisdom and force are superior people.

And Gao Yu saw that the only two remaining Jiedu envoys under his command proposed to retreat, which was exactly in line with his intentions, so he said:

"Since you have proposed to withdraw the troops for the time being, the official has also agreed, but Jeju has been broken, and where should you retreat!"

"Yu Taiwei, the Lijia Road crossing is the closest to Shouzhang County, Yunzhou, and the villain thinks that if it is inconvenient to go south to Jeju, it is better to go there for the time being."

At this time, a person came out to reply, and everyone saw that it was Wang Jin, a Jeju official, who had been currying favor with Gao Yu for several days, and was deeply loved by him, and now he has been promoted to the long history of the army.

high

Seeing that what he said was reasonable, he immediately agreed, and immediately ordered Zhang Kai to be the front army, Dang Shiying to be the Chinese army, and Han Cunbao to be the rear army, regardless of the thousands of wounded and dead in the camp, the army immediately pulled out the camp and threw himself into Shou Zhang.

At the entrance of Lijia Road, Ma Ling sent the news of Jeju City at night, and at that time, Gu Haotian, Wu Yong and others expected that Gao Yu would retreat after receiving the news, and they were ready to respond overnight. At this time, seeing the officers and soldiers retreating, the gate of the village was suddenly opened, and Lu Zhishen, Yu Sheng, and Yuan Lang each led the headquarters to chase after them.

Let's say that Gao Yu and the others had just left the camp, and they listened to the direction of the Li family crossing, and knew that it was the Liangshan soldiers and horses chasing after them, and they couldn't help but panic. Han Cunbao fell behind, and when he saw a fat monk leading his troops to chase after him, he hurriedly raised his halberd to stop him.

"The Sprinkle family has watched the excitement for a few days, and today it is finally a battle."

The monk shouted excitedly, and when he came to him, he raised the iron staff and smashed it down on his head.

Han Cunbao was self-contained, and he didn't take him seriously, but as soon as the two weapons came into contact, he was surprised in his heart, this monk is so strong! He couldn't help but be careful. The two fought for twenty or thirty times and did not know the winner, at this time, the people of Liangshan gradually caught up, Han Cunbao did not dare to stay longer, and wanted to retreat after making a false move.

"Wu Na man, the Sprinkle family is not yet enjoyable, don't want to escape!"

The monk shouted and followed closely. Han Cunbao saw that the pursuers were approaching, and he couldn't get out, so he couldn't help but secretly complain.

Let's say that Gao Yu hurriedly moved forward with the former army and the middle army, and unconsciously came to a fork in the road, and was about to turn north to the direction of Shouzhang, and suddenly saw a cavalry behind the forest in front of him.

"Go there traitor, Zhou Yunqing has been waiting for you here for a long time!"

I saw a young general shouting at the head, carrying a silver spear and killing quickly.

"General Zhang, stop it quickly!"

Gao Yu screamed in panic, turned his horse's head around himself, and hurried west under the protection of the forbidden army.

A group of people hurriedly ran for nearly half an hour, but saw a temple on the side of the road in front of them, and the Black Tiger Temple was written on the gate. When everyone saw that there were no pursuers behind them, they breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, and they wanted to take a break to collect the rout. I heard the sound of killing in front of me, and the two cavalry came out from both sides of the road, but it was Yang Zhi, the head of the third regiment of the Liangshan cavalry, and Wang Yu, the deputy head of the regiment, who set up an ambush here.

When Gao Yu saw that he was frightened at that time, he was in a hurry to lead Dang Shiying to lead people to stop the enemy, and he took his cronies back and ran.

Since there were ambushes on both sides of the west and north, but the east was the Lijia crossing, Gao Yu and his party had to go south.

Let's say that a group of people fled south in a hurry like frightened birds, and they didn't know how long they had been walking, but they arrived at the edge of a small river, but they couldn't find the village or the store, and at this time the sun had sunk in the west, and everyone ran all the way, all exhausted. Gao Yu called Wang Jin beside him and asked:

"Where is this?"

That Wang Jin looked back and forth left and right for a while, but he was not sure, he replied hesitantly:

"This should be near Yuncheng County, if you go a few miles further or there are people, you will know there."

"Captain, the brothers are tired, it's still safe here, it's better to rest first, eat some dry food before leaving."

At this time, one of the forbidden military captains said, and several others also responded. Gao Yu thought about it, and immediately hundreds of forbidden soldiers cheered, and immediately fell to the ground crookedly.

Gao Yu was also in pain after a day of jolting on horseback, and he sat on a stone by the side of the road with the support of his own soldiers. Thinking about the army of more than 100,000 people, but now there are only a few hundred followers left, and none of the leading generals remains, and I can't help but feel sad from it, and I can't help but overflow with an old tear.

However, at this moment, that Wang Jin shouted in panic on the side: "Captain, look, there's another man over there!" ”

Gao Yu was startled when he heard this, and the tears that overflowed into his eyes were taken back. I saw him jump up with a "whoosh", and sure enough, he saw the other side of the river far away

A group of people who came over and pressed the black.

"Quickly remove the bridge, Hugh must let them cross the river!"

The soldiers all over the ground were woken up by Gao Yu's exclamations, and dozens of people by the bridge hurriedly stepped forward. When he was about to remove the slate, he saw that the other party quickly ran out of a person, and shouted loudly:

"In front of me, there is a senior lieutenant of the imperial court and his party, and Wen Bin came to answer when he was in the county of Xia Yuncheng!"

When the soldiers heard this, their hands suddenly froze, and they couldn't help but look at Gao Yu together. And Gao Yu didn't know whether it was true or false at this time, so he pulled Wang Jin over.

"Look, that person is the magistrate of Yuncheng?"

"Yes, it is Lord Shi, he used to be an official in Jeju for several years, and the villain will never be wrong."

Wang Jin took a closer look, but saw that it was Shi Wenbin, and he was excited for a while.

"If you go over, let him cross the river alone, and the rest shall not take a step forward without orders."

Gao Yu was ambushed all the way, and now he is a soldier.

Wang Jin was ordered to hurry over, and in just a moment, he brought a thirty-year-old official over.

"When Wenbin was the magistrate of Yuncheng County, he was late, and he hoped that the captain would forgive his sins."

At that time, Wenbin arrived in front of Gao Yu and made a big salute.

But Gao Yu didn't call him up, but just asked: "How does Shizhi County know that this official will pass by here." ”

"I know that there are many routs entering Yuncheng at noon, and the lower officials heard that the imperial court is not good for sending troops, and thinks that Taiwei or return to Jeju, so he takes Yali to catch fast and Minzhuang to wait here, and God is fortunate to see that Taiwei arrived safely."

"How is Jeju doing?"

"After the city was broken that day, Liangshan Caokou only harmed some officials such as the prefect and the general judge, killed and dispersed the garrison in the city, and then retreated, leaving not a single soldier in the city."

Gao Yu heard that there were no people in Jeju City, so he felt a lot more at ease, so he let Shi Wenbin get up. Then let the forbidden army cross the river, fetch food, and everyone had a full meal.

Soon after, Dang Shiying and Zhang Kai arrived with troops one after another, and only then did Gao Yu completely settle down. That night, the army stayed in Yuncheng County, and Shi Wenbin, as the landlord, was busy and did his best. Gao Yu saw it in his eyes and appreciated it very much, he couldn't help but think that when Tong Guan returned to Beijing after the defeat of the army, he had said bad things about the county magistrate of Yuncheng, and now it seems that there is a big difference, presumably Tong Guan's words of defeat and blame.

On the morning of the second day, Han Cunbao led a remnant of the army to Yuncheng County, and at this time, several teams were combined into one place, with a total of more than 20,000 people, and Gao Yu's spirit gradually became full. I think he crossed Haikou when he left Beijing, but now he is really unwilling to go back like this. Besides, Qiu Yue, Zhou Yue's army and Niu Bangxi's sailors will arrive soon, and if some more troops are transferred from the neighboring state capitals, they may be able to fight with the Liangshan bandits again.

When Gao Yu hesitated whether to stay and fight again, a message sent by Shi Wenbin in time made him make up his mind.

It turned out that according to the news obtained by Shi Wenbin, the city of Jeju was broken, but it was because the Shangdang Taiyuan Festival made Xu Jing already surrender to the thief and made an internal response in the city, so the thief soldiers were able to easily enter the city.

But that's why! I said, how could that little grass coward break through the big fortified city! Gao Yu's heart knotted when he heard this, and he immediately thought that if there was no such thing, why would he have to retreat in a hurry at the Li family crossing, giving the thieves a chance. couldn't help scolding Xu Jing, but he made up his mind to break Liangshan again.

After breakfast, Gao Yu led the army and immediately set off for Jeju, but before leaving, he called Shi Wenbin and said:

"Jeju City is now ownerless, Shizhi County once served in Jeju, and was more loyal to the imperial court, so he went to the post of temporary prefect, and the old man immediately went to the imperial court, and soon there should be an official document from the Ministry of Officials, and then he was given a correct name."

When Shi Wenbin saw this, he hurriedly bowed down and thanked him, but there was a hint of a smile on his lowered face.
