Chapter 252: The Battle of Fate

Although the end of the year was approaching, Wang Lun knew about Chao Gai's death and couldn't calm down.

I also have a self-blame in my heart, if I don't guard against Chao Gai, I bring him to Liangshan, or if I pacify Zengtou City early, how can there be this disaster.

Wang Lun couldn't wait any longer this day, and was anxious about the leader of Liangshan.

Wang Lun muttered: "The brothers also know about the matter of King Chao. Everyone has been nesting in the cottage for a winter, and they must all be very quiet. Now that the spring flowers are blooming, let's go down the mountain together. One is to enjoy the scenery in spring, and the other is to train soldiers. Zhu Junshi has always rarely gone down the cottage, so this time he went down the mountain with me, and the cottage was left behind by Xiao Junshi. In addition, all the horse infantry troops went down the mountain, and the naval army guarded the village. โ€

Ruan Xiaoqi didn't have his own share when he heard it, so he quickly got up and shouted, "Brother, take me one!" โ€

His brother is also familiar with Chao Gai and wants to avenge Chao Gai.

Wang Lun said: "You don't want to get involved in land affairs, after a while, you go to the sea for a walk." โ€

Lin Chong and Hu Yanzhuo went north, and Wang Lun wanted to practice the transportation capacity of the navy.

When Ruan Xiaoqi heard this, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he shouted, "Is my brother's words serious? โ€

All the leaders of the navy also looked at Wang Lun intently, except for Fei Bao who begged for a life at sea, although they all had a good water nature, they had never been to sea.

Ruan's three heroes, Li Jun, Tong Wei, Tong Meng, Zhang Heng, and Zhang Shun all got up excitedly.

This is also a new financial road opened up by Wang Lun and Zhu Wu after discussing with Zhu Wu.

After the alliance between Song, Liao, and Tanyuan, trade between the two countries was very frequent, and smuggling was also rampant.

The Song Dynasty exported the most copper coins, books, porcelain, fine utensils, silk, spices and other things to the Liao State, as well as some strong wines.

One of the best-selling is the copper coin, the copper coins of the Song Dynasty are exquisitely made, not to mention the Liao State, that is, the entire East Asia can circulate, every year the Song Dynasty will mint a large number of copper coins, but the domestic copper coins are still not enough, because many surrounding countries are happy to accept the coins of the Song Dynasty, resulting in many merchants smuggling copper coins to foreign countries.

The Song Dynasty enacted many measures to prevent copper coins from leaving the country, but the smuggling of copper coins was still very serious.

Liangshan has a lot of copper coins, but he will not smuggle copper coins, and the profits of copper coins are not large, and Liangshan does not have books, porcelain, etc.

Liangshan has such as the famous Liangshan soju, Liangshan burning knife is recognized as the strongest wine in the world, and even under the spread of some merchants, Liangshan burning knife also has some good reputation in Liao.

Moreover, the profit of wine has always been very high, and there is no obstacle for Liangshan to buy grain, so it is completely possible to produce burning knives in large quantities, so after everyone discussed, they decided to dump burning knives to Liao.

The next day, Wang Lun took Ma Bujun down the mountain.

The daily march was sixty miles, and within a few days, they also came to the vicinity of Zengtou City.

The Liangshan army set up camp ten miles away from Zengtou City, and Zengtou City also got the news. Chao Gai is dead, and the most nervous thing in Zengtou City is not Erlongshan, but Liangshan Wang Lun.

The mayor of Zengtou heard that the soldiers and horses of Liangshan had set up camp outside the city, and hurriedly asked people to close the fence and summoned their five sons, teacher Shi Wengong and deputy teacher Su Ding.

This incident was caused by Yu Baosi, and he was also by his side.

Zeng was puzzled: "Could it be that this Liangshan knows about the fact that we privately sent Yu Baosi to loot everywhere?" How else will they attack us? โ€

The fifth son once ascended: "The horse that Xu rode for the history teacher is not necessarily, the guy once said that the horse belonged to Wang Lun, I don't believe it in my heart, I just think he is using Wang Lun's name to bluff people"

Zeng Lang Wenyan frowned and said: "Liangshan is powerful, and last year, Hu Yanzhuo and Guan Sheng led tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to encircle and suppress them, but they were all defeated. If we provoke him without any reason, it seems to me that it is better to give him back this horse. I'll find another good horse for the teacher to ride. โ€

Lao Wu Zeng Sheng said with a smile: "The forbidden army of the Song Dynasty is not helpful, don't say 100,000, even if you come to 200,000, we can also defeat him." If we return the horse to him, it will only mean that our Dajin people are afraid of the Liangshan thieves, and it will also show that our Zeng family is incompetent. โ€

In fact, the Zeng family is not a Dajin country, but can only be regarded as a Jurchen, because when they came to the Great Song Dynasty, they did not have such a thing as Dajin.

They had enough hard days in the white mountains and black waters, and when they met the Great Song Dynasty maritime merchants who went there to buy ginseng and pearls, they also heard that the Great Song Dynasty was rich, so they and some Jurchens followed the maritime merchants to the Great Song Dynasty to settle down.

In recent years, Dajin has risen rapidly, robbed many state capitals in Daliao, and once made a family call themselves Dajin people.

The fourth brother, Zeng Kui, also said: "The fifth brother is right, the forbidden army of the Song Dynasty will not fight for a long time, and it is nothing if Liangshan defeats them." However, the Great Song Dynasty court is rich, and a Liangshan leader is worth 3,000 guan, and we will have a family fortune if we catch a few of his leaders. Much faster than looting around. โ€

The boss Zeng Tu nodded and said: "We also learned a martial art, and the two teachers are even more powerful, and if you don't believe it, you will lose to Liangshan." If they speak well, we will also consult. When we came to the door like this, we became a rival with him, and captured them alive one by one and sent them to the government to receive a reward, which also showed the prestige of our Zeng family's five tigers. โ€

This family was originally a savage, although they have been in the Great Song Dynasty for many years, they are still unruly, otherwise they would not have secretly let Yu Baosi loot in private.

The second Zeng Mi and the third Zeng Suo also shouted when they heard the words, as long as they won or lost with the soldiers and horses of Liangshan.

Shi Wengong also looked down on these Jurchen savages, but Zengtou City was willing to hire him with a lot of money, so he stayed in Zengtou City as a teacher to teach these savages who only had brute strength some martial arts.

Although he felt that there were many fierce generals in Liangshan, he was reluctant to give up this good horse, and he also felt that it was difficult for him to have an opponent in martial arts. If you can defeat Liangshan, you will have fame and fortune at that time.

Su Ding saw that the five tigers of the Zeng family were all clamoring for war with Liangshan, and Shi Wengong didn't speak, so he didn't want to show his cowardice.

Zeng Lang was also a wild man who dared to fight with Xiong Hu earlier, and when he saw his sons screaming one by one, he also nodded and said, "Okay, then we will fight Liangshan, and if the enemy is not enough, we will discuss it when the enemy is not enough." โ€

Everyone discussed for a while, and the five tigers of the Zeng family, Shi Wengong and Su Ding also went down to prepare to fight in the coming day.

Erlong Mountain.

Gongsun Sheng changed his resignation to Song Jiang at that time, and took Bai Sheng with him. Song Jiang looked at Bai Sheng upset, so he agreed.

Erlongshan Chaogai's forces have no brains and brains, and it is convenient for Song Jiang to clean up.

Originally, Gongsun Sheng still wanted to take Xue Yong and Li Yun with him, but he was afraid that Song Jiang would be suspicious, so he didn't mention it. These two people have a shallow foundation and have no threat to Song Jiang, so they should not worry about their lives.

As for Liu Tang, he is a reckless person, and Gongsun Sheng plans to keep a bag, and it will be up to him to create it at that time.

Gongsun Sheng was nostalgic for Erlong Mountain, he walked out of the military tent, looked up and saw that it was already three poles in the sun, and planned to see the scenery of Erlong Mountain.

After walking a short distance, he caught a glimpse of a new grave in a depression, and two minions burning paper on the side.

"Fighting on the battlefield is a life with your head pinned to your trouser belt, and it is a great blessing to live to a good death!"

He sighed and was about to walk aside, but he heard someone say, "Li Lao Liu!" You have fed the horses for half your life, and when your brother returns to the mountain, he will burn two paper horses for you, and ride them in turn. Be a big official, ride a high horse, and marry a lady! โ€

"Li Lao Liu?!" Gongsun Sheng stopped, "Brother Chao Gai's horse is so weird that it actually attracted a group of fireflies to fly around him, and became a live target for the Zengtou City Army in the night......"

He turned around and walked over and bowed to the tombstone of Li Laoliu on the ground.

The two minions around Li Lao Liu all recognized him, and they hurriedly got up and saluted, saying: "This Li Lao Liu and we are from the same village, and we were in a scuffle last night, so we snatched his body back, which can be regarded as a great luck."

Now it's hot, the body can't be left, and we will find a place to bury it in a while, so we found some paper money to burn it for him. โ€

"Is it King Chao's groom, Li Lao Liu?" Gongsun Sheng was afraid of recognizing the wrong person.

"Who else? It's him! Alas! He was hit by an arrow in the vital part of his heart, he died a hundred times, and there is still an old mother on the mountain who needs to be fed! โ€

A picture suddenly appeared in Gongsun Sheng's mind, a man who was shorter than Li Laoliu, strangled his neck from behind with one hand, and plunged an arrow into his heart with the other!

He shuddered a little when he thought of this!
