Chapter 166: What's Important? Official hat also
Yuncheng County.
Early in the morning, a team of chariots and horses outside the east gate slowly drove out of the city gate. Cao Jing, the former county minister, sat in a light car at the head, lifted the curtain and took one last look at Yuncheng County, a city he had been in for many years, his face was full of bitterness and nostalgia. "This trip to the south, I don't know if the old man will have a day to return...... "He has also reached the age of knowing the destiny of heaven, but he was demoted to the wet and poisonous land in Lingnan, traveling thousands of miles, how miserable his heart is.
Mrs. Cao on the side looked at the bitter look on her father-in-law's face, and her heart was not very good. If you knew this, it would be better to resign and return to your hometown as soon as possible, and you can also end up safe.
Now not only is his father-in-law not good, but even a pair of sons, and the future is bright.
With a father who eats sin, her two sons are really the seeds of scholars who have not been born for a hundred years, and they will not be good.
This Liang Shanbo is a scourge, Lu Qian is a big scourge, and Cao Jing is a pond fish with red fruits that have been affected!
"Official, Song Zhusi took Zhu and Lei to send wine to each other in the long pavilion."
The words of the attendants rang out outside the car. Cao Jing suppressed his lamentation, paused and said, "Song Jiang, it's a character." "It's a pity that no matter how big he is in this life, he doesn't have much of a future, and the officials are not shallow in harming people.
Cheering up, Cao Jing lifted his feet and got out of the carriage. Song Jiang took Zhu Tong and Lei Heng to come up to greet him, the huge Yuncheng County Ya, there are not 100 people but 80 people, not to mention the gentry all over the city, but only the three of them came today.
Is Taishi Cai's deterrent power average?
"Alas, if they don't come, why should you come?" Cao Jing directly ignored Zhu Tong and Lei Heng, but knew that these two were just Song Jiang's younger brothers.
"Xianggong has been cooking Yuncheng for many years, fair and virtuous, conscientious, and caring for the villain and Zhu Lei. Today, the husband left, the villain was really sad in his heart, and he couldn't bear to send each other? ”
"Xianggong goes all the way south, the mountains are high and the rivers are long, the road is thousands of miles, and I hope to take care of your body." Zhu Tong and Lei Heng were also willing to worship Cao Jing.
How many leaks did the two of them make in dealing with Liangshan? Cao Jing is a shrewd person, how could he not guess the taste, but he was vague in the past. Zhu Tong and Lei Heng really want to thank him.
"Obey a word, so that the old man is very relieved, and it is not in vain that the old man will protect you that day. Only the old man is gone, I am afraid that it will be difficult to have a comeback, and I have a word to tell you. Cao Jing's eyes bloomed with an extraordinary divine light, which made Zhu Lei and the others bow their heads even more.
"Liangshanbo has indeed prospered recently, but its prosperity is like a castle in the air, and when it is at its peak, it is the day of defeat. Because Liangshanbo is too close to Tokyo, Taizu said: On the side of the couch, how can you allow others to snore. It is also a water transport fortress, and if it moves, the world will ripple, and the court will not turn a blind eye. ”
"You are arrogant and arrogant, and you are disconnected from Liangshan Bo, but you must be cautious and cautious in affairs. Don't play with fire and set yourself on fire. ”
"The old man has good words, whether you listen or not, it's up to you, and go back."
Song Jiang looked at the back of Cao Jing walking back to the carriage unhurriedly, and he didn't know what to say for a while. But he still felt a trace of sincerity from Cao Jing's words. After so many years of intersection, perhaps it was at this last time that he really saw the sincerity of this Cao Zhixian who was not mixed with other emotions.
But in any case, Yuncheng County belongs to the era of Cao Jing, and this is the end. The new magistrate is called Shi Wenbin, and it is said that the official reputation is still very good, but Song Jiang has no hope for this. The Qing officials in these years are only touted by Shilin officialdom, and how many of them are genuine?
Don't say anything else, just look at that Uncle Zhang. Du Yan was a good pastor in the world, but he was also disgraced in the hands of Liang Shanbo, and he sat back and watched Yang Zhi end of his rope and had to force Liangshan.
Uncle Zhang couldn't do it all night, and at this time, Wen Bin replaced Cao Jinglai, and he also wanted to sit on wax. As soon as he took office, he took over a mess. You must know that Uncle Zhang and Murong Yanda, the prefect of Qingzhou, have agreed that the soldiers and horses of Qingzhou will control the thunderbolt fire Qin Ming, and they will lead the army south, and they will enter the territory of Yuncheng County in a few days.
This Qin Ming is a fierce general, one of the nine generals of the Jingdong Forbidden Army, and his subordinates include the calm and serious Zhensanshan Huangxin, as well as Song Jiang's good friend Xiao Li Guanghuarong. As the commander of Qingzhou's soldiers and horses, even though Qin Ming has little interaction with Hua Rong, this does not mean that he does not know Hua Rong's skills. The latter's marksmanship and archery skills are not to be underestimated by Qin Ming.
Qingzhou originally had 5,000 forbidden troops. Of course, the 5,000 people are numbers on paper. Actually, there are only about 3,000 people. With Murong Yanda as the prefect, the military and government of Qingzhou are in a mess. Even Qin Ming and Huang Xin can only protect individual battalion leaders and maintain a certain combat effectiveness.
This time, the Qingzhou Mansion mobilized four forbidden military camps, plus thousands of people from the prefecture. If you want to level Liangshan with such a force, it is a fool's dream; But after these horses converged with the local Tuyong in Yuncheng, it was not difficult to defend Yuncheng. In other words, this Yuncheng is going to become a battlefield again.
Song Jiang sighed in his heart, sighing at Cao Jing's luck.
This Qingzhou man is actually just one of the many people invited by Uncle Zhang, and this is the soldiers and horses of the five states to fight against Liangshan.
The news has already spread throughout Jeju.
Liang Shanbo robbed Taishi Cai's birthday platform, which caused the old lady in Tokyo to lose face and become angry. It's not just Cao Jing, a small magistrate, who has eaten a burden, I heard that the prefect of Puyang also went to Tokyo to listen to it. This time, the people of Puzhou and the people of Dongping Mansion have all arrived this time. In this way, with Dongchang Province and Jeju Province, and then Cheongju Mansion, this is the real way to inform the state capitals and crack down on them.
The soldiers and horses of Dongping Mansion are all superintendents, Dong Ping, a two-gun general, good at using two guns, and has the courage of ten thousand people, but he is a top-notch general. At the beginning in the northwest, because he often took the lead, he was also called Dong Yibu.
And the soldiers and horses of Dongchang Mansion were all in prison, Zhang Qing had no feathers and arrows, and Yang Zhi, who was beaten in the last battle, was bleeding all over his face and returned in fear. As for Yang Zhi's martial arts, although Song Jiang had never seen it with his own eyes, he had heard about it from Zhu Tong and Chao Gai. Coupled with Xu Ning, the golden gunner who can draw with the flower monk Lu Zhishen, this Liangshan really has to deal with it carefully. Otherwise, if you are not careful, a catastrophe will befall you. Although Song Jiang has always had a voice in his heart telling him that Liang Shan will not be defeated.
Song Jiang flipped countless thoughts in his heart, and then looked at the carriages and horses of Cao Jingren's southward journey, and sighed secretly: "Cao Xianggong, you haven't encountered a good opportunity." ”
In this way, when the three of them returned to the city, Song Jiang did not lead people to Yan Po's place, but went to Lei Heng's house. There are no outsiders in this Lei Heng's family, only an old mother, and she is the safest.
But no one mentioned Cao Jing anymore, and no one mentioned the upcoming Shi Wenbin. All three of them had Liang Shan in mind.
"Listening to Cao Xianggong's intentions, can Liangshan still get through this experience?" As far as Cao Jing's words are concerned, he obviously doesn't think that Liangshanbo can be broken in a short period of time.
Song Jiang spoke first.
Seriously, don't look at the original book, this guy led the people, fought in the south and the north, and fought battle after battle. I don't know, I thought this birdman was really an unborn celebrity.
But take a closer look at the war on the Water Margin, what is the difference between Song Jiang and Song Jiang? Song Jiang gives people the feeling that he is a spiritual role model, the one who takes the idea is the dog-headed military master Wu Yong, and it is the soldiers and horses under his command who fight hard. And the importance of the infinitely prominent fighting generals in the article is unscientific. When Liang Shanbo conquered the Quartet, the leader was strong enough to defeat it. And the impact of this space-time 'fighting general' factor on the war is really not small. At least Song Jiang was deeply affected.
Zhu Tong and Lei Heng glanced at each other, compared with Song Jiang, the two of them are more aware of the battle and have experience.
"In this meeting, even though the officers and troops are attacking in many ways, they are too far away from each other, and each road is not a subordinate to each other, and each is fighting for its own ......."
That Qinghe County complained that Uncle Zhang's division of troops at night was the most important reason for the defeat of that war, but this was a little self-righteous. But now Zhu Tong and Lei Heng really feel that in a big battle here today, most of the official and military defeats will be defeated by dividing the troops and multiple roads, and each does not belong to this point.
Because this will be the officials and troops of the state capitals and will be able to suppress it, it is clear that they will send troops and horses to kill them, and there is nothing to hide. I'm afraid that the current Liangshan has already known the news, and the soldiers and horses of Qingzhou and the soldiers and horses of Dongping Mansion may have been defeated for Liangshan before they met.
In fact, Uncle Zhang was not prepared to fight like this. But the people of Puzhou and Dongping didn't listen to him.
He had only contacted Murong Yanda in Qingzhou before, the latter's sister Murong Guifei was the favorite concubine of today's son, and had successively given birth to the eighth son of the emperor, Yiwang Zhao Yan, the eleventh son of the emperor, Zhao Mo, the eleventh son of Qi, the eighteenth son of the emperor, Zhao Zhen, the twenty-fifth son of the emperor, and Zhao Ao, the king of Jian'an County. Among them, the twenty-five sons of the emperor have just been born less than 100 days.
It is true that Murong Guifei is the favored harem, but the sky is pitiful, the prince she gave birth to, the eldest eighth son is only eight years old. And this year, the current emperor has officially appointed the eldest son of the empress as the crown prince.
Hehe, Dingwang Zhao Xuan became the crown prince Zhao Huan, and the crown prince Zhan Shi Geng Nanzhong was the straight bachelor of the Huiyou Pavilion. This suddenly dispelled the little ambition that the Murong clan had left. You must know that in the Zhao and Song dynasties, there was never a prince who was abandoned.
Although Zhao Kai, the third son of the emperor, Jiawang, does not seem to have given up the struggle for the throne, the Murong family does not have much ambition. Because their Murong family has been a high-ranking official and noble for generations since Murong Yanzhao, and they have retired with the Great Song Dynasty and the country. I won't do that risky thing to do.
Now the prince's teacher, Geng Nanzhong, is a standard old-school figure, but Cai Jing has always claimed to be a new party and raised the banner of Wang Anshi. During his reign, he sat on the statue of Wang Anshi and enjoyed Confucius, after Mencius. In the third year of Zhenghe, Wang Anshi posthumously crowned King Shu, and posthumously crowned Wang Anshi's son Wang Yan as Linchuan Bo, from the end of the two temples of Confucius. You don't care how much Cai Jing and his party have smeared Wang Anshi, just to say that there is a fundamental deviation between the two.
And Zhang Shuye's background is also inextricably linked with the old party. Therefore, Murong Yanda decisively decided to help Uncle Zhang for a while. At that time, Uncle Zhang couldn't talk about the subsequent changes. All he asked for was for Qingzhou soldiers and horses to kill Jeju, so as to put a certain amount of pressure on Liangshanbo and contain it.
And when he accumulated the courage of the people, supplemented by the men and horses of Dongchang and Puzhou, he first held Liangshanbo hostage.
At least everyone can see that Liangshanbo is an enemy of the government, and now the two sides are still fighting, not that the government has been defeated by Liangshanbo. Let the displaced people be afraid, and not go to Liangshan, but come to join the people of others.
didn't expect that the incident of Puyangdu made Cai Jing angry. There were officials around Liangshanbo, and no one dared to ignore the anger of the old thief, and they sent troops and horses one after another. For example, in Puzhou, it was no longer Xu Ning who came out of the battle, but the prisoner of the soldiers and horses in Benzhou, but he was a person that Lu Qian had never heard of or heard of.
Zhang Qing of Dongchang Mansion also received the order of the prefect to go straight to Liangshan. In the eyes of these bureaucrats, it was not important to exterminate Liangshan, and their top priority was to make the old ministers of Tokyo see their enthusiasm and attitude.
Nothing is more important than the official hat on their heads.
