This Liangshanbo game has achieved that subtlety, such as putting a frog in cold water, the dry wood below has been lit, only after a while, the frog will notice that something is wrong, and it will be difficult to do that struggle.

But now, in the cold winter wax moon, the New Year is coming. The Liangshan thieves suddenly sent out three soldiers to fight in the future, and after the news spread, everyone in the people who knew the news was shocked.

It will take several months for the ten knots of troops and horses to be mobilized. The time of the expedition of the army of Gao Yu is scheduled for early summer.

In this way, the Liangshanbo thieves can't escape.

Fortunately, the main generals of the three roads are not the thief chief Lu Qian, and on the edge of the water pool, fifty porridge fields are also helping refugees as usual. Then the people in Tokyo City waited for this to relax.

After that, there was a submission to the city of Tokyo, and because of the words and martial affairs, it was about to be reviewed by the privy envoy Zheng Juzhong. This person is a native of Kaifeng Mansion and the son-in-law of the former prime minister Wang Qi. He was taken aback when he saw that the Gao Tang Dynasty was very desolate and that there were no more than a thousand soldiers and horses. However, it was the predecessor of Gao Tang Zhizhou Gao Lian, who reported to the imperial court after the previous situation calmed down, always saying that two thousand young men had been newly recruited, and the remaining defeated soldiers, and the Daimyo Mansion was transferred to two battalions of forbidden troops, and now there are 5,000 soldiers and horses. But looking at it now, one of the three stops is insufficient.

Although the current Gao Tang Zhizhou is now complaining about suffering, I am afraid that it is more to get rid of his crime of losing the city and land in the near future, but if the lid is lifted in this way, it can also be said that Gao Lian cannot afford to bear the crime, and I am afraid that Gao Yu will be involved.

If it had been placed two months ago, Zheng Juzhong would have been happy to see that Gao Yu unlucky. Who told that guy's hands and feet to grow deeper and longer? But now, this time and that time too. In the blink of an eye, Zheng Ju Center has already made a decision.

The current governor of Gaotang Prefecture is Yang Jian's doorman, and he has some prestige, but he only knows how to play and sing, and at most he can only make two sets of songs, offer a few praises, and know how to fight birds!

Zheng Juzhong was very well aware of the affairs of the Privy Council (referred to as the Privy Council), and was the head of the military ministers of the Great Song Dynasty. Although in the Zhao and Song dynasties, the real power of this position became smaller and shrunk, it was still the highest state institution in charge of important military affairs, and the power of the privy envoy was equal to that of the prime minister.

The old Zhao family's system of two governments and three divisions was to exercise administrative leadership jointly with the Privy Council (Xifu) in charge of military affairs and the Zhongshu Sect (Zhengshitang and Dongfu) in charge of government affairs, and was called "Erfu", which was the highest state organ at that time.

Therefore, he is a true minister of the kingdom. At the moment, Zheng Juzhong is a powerful person who can wrestle with Cai Jing. Even though earlier, in order to cater to the emperor's will and fight for power, he colluded with Liu Zhengfu to attack Zhang Shangying and Liu Kui and help Cai Jing regain his appearance; But now he has followed in the footsteps of Zhang Kangguo, and he is against Cai Jing in everything, but he is expected by scholars for a while. It's really hehe.

Although this guy doesn't do anything serious, just because he is against Cai Jing, all the previous stains have been clear, or they have been ignored, and the current reputation of Shilin is actually not bad. Alas, it can only be, who told him to have Cai Jing, the Mt who attracts hatred, next to him?

(Zhang Kangguo, in the third year of Chongning (1104), was Shangshu Zuocheng, Xuanzhi Privy Council, and was constrained by the secret order of Huizong. He was impeached by a Taiwanese official instructed by Beijing, and died violently within a few days, or was suspected of being poisoned. ）

Zheng Juzhong is a chess piece in Zhao Ji's hand to contain Cai Jing, Tong Guan is the chess piece used by Zhao Ji to contain Zheng Juzhong, and Gao Yu is a chess piece to contain Tong Guan. But this does not mean that the relationship between Zheng Juzhong and Gao Yu is harmonious. Although Tong Guan is powerful, he is more in charge of the army, and since he is in charge of the army, how can he stay in Beijing? Just said that in this capital, why is Gao Yu not elbowing Zheng Juzhong?

It's just that time has passed, and at the moment, he has to cover up a thing or two for Gao Yu. At that time, the official document of the Gaotang Dynasty was suppressed. In the evening of the same day, someone was sent to Gao Yu's mansion. Gao Yu was also angry when he saw it, but at this critical moment, he did not allow anyone to jump out and ruin his chance.

Someone recruited Gao Lian to interrogate, and the latter also lived in the mansion. It didn't take long to be lured. Gao Lian wears a scarf and a brown veil. There is a pinch of short whiskers sprinkled in front, and the withered yellow skin is a little sharp and mean. Gao Yu looked him up and down on Zhou, and said: "Look at your appearance, you don't look like an official close to the people, but also a person." How can it be strange that people say that you are very bad in Gaotang politics. If you really have the heart to seek the Tao and cultivate the truth, I will let you be a Taoist official, so that you will also be happy, and it will save me from making things difficult. ”

Gao Lian's face is already mean, but now that his wife is dead, it is even more so. He was looking for Gao Yu at this time, thinking that there was something important to discuss, but he didn't expect Gao Yu to say this kind of rhetoric. He bowed down and said with a smile: "Under the care of my brother, I transferred my younger brother back to Tokyo, the matter in Gaotang Prefecture has long passed, why did my brother mention it again?" ”

Gao Yu said: "Today, Gaotang Prefecture and Xinzhi Prefecture have submitted a document to Beijing. The Tao is that there are less than 1,000 soldiers and horses there, and the implication is that the city cannot be defended, and he is not to blame, but your predecessor. When you were in office, you were rewarded with 5,000 soldiers and horses. I expected you to swallow up a little of it, but I didn't expect to swallow a lot! ”

Gao Lian said strangely: "This new Zhizhou, if he doesn't say anything immediately after he arrives, now the Liangshan thieves are going to be killed, but he knows about the Chengwen Imperial Court." is not only a guest under Yang Jian, but he is a gentleman, but he came to expose the mistakes of the former officials. "The money and food of 5,000 soldiers and horses, as long as the imperial court broadcasts it on time, that is, all the money and food of those 1,000 people have been distributed, and Xinzhizhou can also make a lot of money.

Because of the previous misfortune, Gao Lian not only suffered for his family, but also lost all his personal money. How can you not take the opportunity to make a fortune when you leave? The new prefect sat back and enjoyed the success, and he didn't move at that time, but now he has become a black bag? It's funny.

Gao Yu sneered: "If you don't think about it yourself, you will complain about your successor." You have fallen into such a big evil, and I can't cover it up for you. Gaotang is a state and county on the edge of the thief's den, and the imperial court specially wants to train more soldiers. As soon as you should pay for the food and equipment, you will be given more money, and you will swallow it so badly, how will you teach the future to guard this city? ”

"Now that the thieves in Liangshan are attacking the city, if Gaotang Prefecture goes down without a fight, if someone plays the Ming Sheng, the official family asks how some of the previous preparations have come to naught, am I telling the truth, or am I deceiving Your Majesty? At that time, if you are guilty, I will have to bear some of the responsibility. "The new governor of Gaotang Prefecture is a doorman valued by Yang Jian, and he is specially placed in Gaotang Prefecture, so that he can be contaminated with some credit in the future, and he should not underestimate people.

There is such a difficulty in ignoring high prices, and it is also sitting on wax. This Gao Yu said very closely, that Xinzhizhou is Yang Jian's doorman, and he can indeed instruct people not to buy Gao Yu's face. He lowered his head and thought about it, and said with a smile: "The little brother has a plan here." ”

Gao Yu said: "You can say it." ”

"In the affairs of Fang Jin's palace, Taiwei Liang is half the master, and Hugh said that Mrs. Cai's master and son, even Tong Shumi, also asked him to do something inside. The younger brother wanted to buy some gold and silver from Taiwei Liang, and asked him to cover up this matter in the saint, so that in the future, the incident in Gaotang Prefecture will also cover up for the current Zhizhou. As long as he survived safely, he didn't care about Yang Xianggong if he wanted to, so he could support me. As for the Privy Council, at this time, Zheng Xianggong is in charge, and it can be handled cheaply. It is expected that the officials will not investigate the trivial matters of the people in that state. Gao Yu stroked the case with his left hand, cleaned his beard with his right hand, looked at Gao Lian and said in a deep voice: "This plan is very beneficial." Only Captain Liang is ......, which is not trivial. ”

Gao Lian said with a smile: "The younger brother can make up about twenty or thirty thousand amounts, if it is insufficient, please ask the elder brother to pay one or two in advance, and in the future, when the younger brother releases the advantages and shortages of other states, he should double his filial piety to the brother." Gao Yu smiled: "You and I are brothers, don't worry about such trivial matters." "Gao Lian has been a lot of trouble in Gaotang Prefecture in the past few years, and not all the money he got went into his own small warehouse.

Besides, Lin Chong is here, even if he doesn't take Mengzhou with a bloody blade, Gaotang Prefecture is also vulnerable. Nazhizhou fled around the city, and he was very embarrassed. The leopard head easily seized Gao Tang, and only regretted that Gao Lian had left one step earlier. Next, the Liangshanbo army hoarded in Gaotang, and released rumors that they would make persistent efforts to attack Lingzhou.

The official army of Nalingzhou is also sparse, and the rumors spread like this, but it makes the people in Zengtou City in the southwest of Nalingzhou angry.

As mentioned above, the strength of Zengtou City is no less than that of Dulonggang, and the relationship with the left and right governments is closer. Because the people of Zengtou City were able to get back Liangma from the north, the Qingzhou and Lingzhou governments were very close to each other. And now, since the wave of Lianjin exterminating Liao has been set off in the city of Tokyo, Zengtou City has become even more proud.

In just a few months, the strength of Zengtou City has risen a lot.

If the previous Zengtou City was not weaker than Dulonggang, then now they really surpass Dulonggang.

Such a team of soldiers and horses, and friendly with the government, naturally cannot be underestimated. Lin Chong stopped his troops in Gaotang Prefecture and waited for follow-up reinforcements, which was a matter of course. And that Zengtou City is also as bold as a fight, Liangshanbo has not been killed, they first gathered four or five thousand people and horses, set up the fence, built thirty or fifty trapped cars, and vowed that they are not incompatible with Liangshanbo, and they will definitely catch the leaders in the cottage. There is even more general hatefulness, he made up a few words and taught the children in the city to sing, saying:

Shake the iron bell, and everyone will be shocked. Iron carts and iron locks, with spikes up and down. Sweep Liangshan Qingshuibo and exterminate Lu Qian to Tokyo. Capture the head of the leopard alive and capture the flower monk alive. The Zeng family gave birth to five tigers, and the world is famous.

When the news reached Dazhai, the leaders knew that Zengtou City was a friend or foe, and they were all angry.

Fang Tianding was furious when he heard this, and said, "How dare this beast be so rude!" "Liang Shanbo was tacitly regarded by their cadres as the place where the strength was still above Manichaeism, Zeng Toushi was so arrogant, wouldn't Manichaeism be even more underestimated in their eyes.

Lu Qian was angry when he heard this, "Yelang is arrogant, so bold. After the army has swept away the city of Beijing, I must go through it myself. If you don't catch this generation, you will not return to the mountain. ”

Oh, yes. The biggest attraction in Liangshanbo is now in the Daimyo's Mansion in Beijing. A leader must endure his anger. However, compared to the outside, Lu Qian wanted to be 'furious', and bluntly said that he would sweep away Zengtou City, so that those who dared to act recklessly would be turned into powder.

This Zeng Toushi is really a good teammate, and he has a tacit understanding of cooperation. It has fully fulfilled the duties of a top Mt.

When designing, Lu Qian thought of them, but he didn't expect them to be so bold and reckless, working so hard with the old Zhao family, and cooperating with Liang Shanbo so much.

In this way, the calm water suddenly became lively, but it was about to raise the soldiers. There are so many people outside the water, but there is a disturbance that can't hide the news. It can be imagined that there must be a mixture of official details. Therefore, before the Liangshan army had completely landed on the shore of Yuncheng County to reorganize its troops, the news had already been sent to Song Jiang first. Then he reported to the county office, and then was sent to Fucheng by a fast horse.

At that time, Cheng Wanli was shocked by the news he received.

This flower monk, Wu Song and others, intercepted and killed He Taiwei and refused to give up, and even cooperated with a gang of thieves in Huaixi to break the city of Fangzhou, kill Zhizhou and the soldiers and horses, and occupy the state city, which is really unscrupulous, really unscrupulous, and really evil.
