Chapter 43: Tong Guan Goes on the Expedition
Qingzhou City was breached, but Murong Yanda, the Lord of Zhizhou, was later released.
Under Murong Zhizhou's strict orders, the whole of Qingzhou did not dare to report the matter to the imperial court, and they all helped to conceal it.
It's just that the city of Dongping Prefecture was also breached, and even the prefect Cheng Wanli's family was arrested.
How could such a thing be hidden, and the general judgment of Dongping Mansion had to write a chapter and report it to the imperial court.
Another family member from Zengtou City fled to Beijing and went to tell Tong Guan.
Tong Guan was a eunuch and had no descendants. All he can pursue now is fame and fortune.
In his opinion, no matter how much wealth he accumulates in this life, in the end, he will be cheaper to others.
So he is not as greedy for money as other eunuchs, he values his name more, he wants to engrave his name in history, and someone will remember him thousands of years later.
Song Shenzong once made a promise that whoever can recover the sixteen states of Yanyun can be crowned king.
Tong Guan has always longed to recover the sixteen states of Yanyun and complete the eternal deeds, and then be recorded in documents by historians like Sima Guang.
It's just that he also knows that the defense of the soldiers and horses of the Great Song Dynasty is okay, but the offense is unreliable.
The Song Dynasty alone did not have the ability to recover the sixteen states of Yanyun, so it secretly sent Shi Wengong Zengtou City to support the Jurchen tribe, weaken the Liao State, and take advantage of the damage to the strength of the Liao State to send troops to recover the sixteen states of Yanyun.
But now I heard that Zeng was killed, Zeng Tou City was breached, and the plan he had painstakingly planned was destroyed by the gang of thieves in Liangshan.
Tong Guanqi's eyes were red, and with a wave of his hand, he knocked down the vase placed on the table.
With a bang, the vase shattered. The family members in the hall were so frightened that they didn't even dare to come out of the big event.
"Damn thief, it's a big deal for me, if I don't set foot on your Liangshan, I will not give up!"
……
On the fifth watch of the next day, the Jingyang bell rang.
The civil and military officials wore official uniforms and went straight to the main hall to serve the court.
At three o'clock in the fifth watch, Emperor Song Huizong of Daojun walked into the main hall.
The twelve palace commanders immediately whipped three times to remind the emperor that he was coming.
Hearing the sound of the whip, the civil and military officials, who were originally a little chaotic, immediately divided into two shifts and stood together.
As soon as Emperor Song Huizong sat down, the head of the palace immediately shouted: "If there is something to go out of the class, there is nothing to roll up and retreat." ”
When Tong Guan heard this, he hurriedly stood up and played: "Qiqi Shengshang, Qingzhou Murong Zhizhou plays, that Liangshan thieves retreat to Shuibo, and the officers and soldiers of Qingzhou have no water division to help, so they can't encircle and suppress." The troops could only be withdrawn to Qingzhou to wait for the opportunity. But I didn't expect that the Liangshan thief Kou was bold and reckless, and he took advantage of the unpreparedness of the officers and soldiers for a while, took the opportunity to conquer Sucheng, robbed Cangxiao, killed Cheng's family, and captured all the Cangliao treasury. This is a big trouble for his henchmen, if he is not punished early, he will develop a thief day by day, and it will be difficult to subdue him. The minister is willing to follow the work of dogs and horses, and lead the troops to get rid of the trouble of the henchmen! ”
When Gao Taiwei heard this, he said: "That Liangshan is just a bunch of grass cobs, so why should the privy envoy Tong go out in person." If you protect one person, you will definitely be able to lead the troops to eradicate those grass bandits. ”
If it was usual, maybe Tong Guan would sell a face to Gao Yu, but Liang Shan destroyed the plan he had planned for many years, Tong Guan was righteous on his head, where would he be willing to listen to Gao Yu, he Tong Guan was bound to personally exterminate Liang Shan, so as to vent the hatred in his heart.
Tong Guan said: "There are 800 miles of water in Liangshan, if you want to exterminate those bandits, you must send heavy troops and advance by land and water to win, otherwise it will be difficult to encircle and suppress." This minister is foolish, and he begs for a holy decision. ”
Song Huizong heard Tong Guan say that he had to have heavy troops and advance by land and water at the same time in order to win. Immediately issued a holy decree, gave the golden seal talisman, worshiped the East Hall privy envoy Tong Guan as the generalissimo, let the selection and transfer of military horses from all over the place, go to arrest the Liangshan Bo thieves, and choose the day to set off.
It is said that the privy envoy Tong Guan accepted the post of generalissimo of the Son of Heaven's army, and as soon as he returned to the Privy Council, he would send someone to invite Gao Yu over.
Gao Yu is the commander of the palace, and he is responsible for managing the forbidden army.
In this expedition, the soldiers and horses encircling and suppressing Liangshan still need his high level to deploy.
In the hall before, Tong Guan vetoed Gao Yu's opinion and broke his face. He didn't want to have a bad relationship with Gao Yu because of this little thing, and then after he set out on the expedition, he was made difficult by Gao Yu.
As soon as he saw Gao Yu walking into the courtyard, Tong Guan immediately stood up and said, "Lord Gao, it's not that I, Tong Guan, want to lose your face, it's just that the plan I have been planning for many years has been disturbed by the gang of thieves in Liangshan." If I don't set foot on Liangshan in person, it is really difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart. This is why the court declined Gao Taiwei's kindness, please forgive me! ”
This Tong Guan is also Song Huizong's confidant, and Gao Yu is not willing to fall out with Tong Guan because of this trivial matter. So he waved his hand and said, "Little things, the Tong Privy Council don't have to take it to heart. ”
Tong Guan asked: "Before, Master Gao said that he wanted to recommend someone, dare to ask which general it is?" This expedition to Liangshan, I am lacking a pioneer general, and I am tired of Gao Daren recommending one or two! ”
Tong Guan felt that he personally went out and led the army to exterminate a group of grass bandits, which was definitely handy. This made Gao Yu recommend one or two people to be the pioneer generals, but in order to make up for the relationship with Gao Yu, give him some credit!
Of course, Gao Yu also understood what Tong Guan meant, and he was not polite at the moment. He said: "This person is at the beginning of the founding of the country, the famous general of Hedong called Yan Zanyan to send his descendants, and the single name called a burning word, so that two copper whips have the courage of ten thousand people. Now under the control of Runing County, there are many elite soldiers and brave generals. I will protect this person, and I will definitely be able to help Master Tong conquer Liangshanbo. ”
Hearing that he was the descendant of the founding general Hu Yanzan, Tong Guan felt that the person recommended by Gao Yu was not bad and could be used. He immediately said: "The one recommended by Lord Gao must be a useful talent, so I will send someone to Runing Prefecture and recruit him to Beijing in the starry night." ”
Tong Guanfa dispatched troops to Fu Xian, and called Yanzhuo to Beijing to listen to orders, and at the same time selected 20,000 soldiers and horses from the Western Army, and 30,000 soldiers and horses from the forbidden army in Beijing. Two good generals were selected from the imperial camp to be the left feather and the right wing.
The grain and grass weapons were quickly prepared, and they were waiting for Hu Yanzhuo to arrive, and they could send troops.
……
When Tong Guan was busy dispatching troops and preparing to encircle and suppress Liangshan, Shi Jinzheng and Song Jiang, Zhu Wu, and Wu watched the game with a few people.
"Yes, that's it, hurry up!"
"Shoot, shoot ......"
"Damn it, where are you kicking it!"
Seeing the child with the ball kick the anti-aircraft gun, kick the ball into the sky, and fly out far away, Shi Jin sighed and sat down.
After more than ten days of training, there is no step at all, which is to familiarize these children with the rules of football.
But for children who lack entertainment, this football is a lot of fun. They exploded with extraordinary enthusiasm and fell in love with the sport.
Whenever you have a little time to play on the football field, you play barefoot without shoes.
Seeing that the ball was about to be sent to the backcourt, Shi Jin turned his head and said: "Brother Song Jiang, what do you think of this football sport, can it be appreciated and loved by the officials?" ”
Song Jiang thought for a while and said: "This football is more passionate and confrontational than Keju, and I believe it should be appreciated by the officials." Just ......"
Shi Jin said: "Brother Song Jiang might as well say it directly,"
Song Jiang said: "Others will know the mystery of this football game when they see it, and anyone can dedicate it to the official family." It's just that I, a small official, have the qualifications to meet the official family and tell it to the official. ”
Shi Jin nodded and said: "Song Jiang is very thoughtful, I invited you here today to let you see this football and let you have a bottom in your heart." As for Brother Song Jiang's worries about not being able to meet the official family, you don't have to worry about this, I have already planned it, and I will definitely be able to make your reputation go straight to Heaven. I will definitely let the officials know about you and summon you! Then you can take the opportunity to play football! ”
Song Jiang nodded when he heard it and said, "Then how should I cooperate with you!" ”
Shi Jin clapped his hands and asked someone to bring a small box, and said, "There are three hundred taels of gold here." You take it to the event and find a few more henchmen. As long as I'm ready. You're going to take your henchmen into the game! ”
Song Jiang heard the arch and said: "Thank you to the master of Shi Zhai, thank you for your great kindness, there will be a good reward in the future!" ”
Shi Jin smiled and said, "Brother Song Jiang is polite, now we are people in the same boat." Hello, we Liangshan can make a profit! ”
Song Jiang also smiled when he heard it and said, "I understand, it's not too early at this time." I can't stay here long enough to be discovered. This is the downhill! ”
Shi Jin stood up and said, "And that's how it should be!" Brother Song Jiang, this football will be given to you, if you have time, you may wish to practice more, and when you meet the official family, you can make the official family happy, don't forget that Gao Yu was only appreciated by the official family because of his footwork. ”
Song Jiang nodded hurriedly when he heard it and said, "That's what the owner of the village said, Song Jiang will definitely practice hard when he goes back!" ”
"Brother Song Jiang, I will send Wang Dingliu to open a hotel in the city, if you encounter any difficulties, or if it is inconvenient to deal with them, you can go to him."
Song Jiang nodded and said, "Okay, I understand!" ”
After sending Song Jiang away, Wu Yong looked at Song Jiang's back as he gradually moved away and said: "Big brother, help this Song Jiang, find a spokesperson in the imperial court, or install a nail in the imperial court, I understand and agree." It's just that this Song Jiang is not a chess piece who is willing to be at the mercy of others. I'm afraid that once he becomes a high-ranking official, he will draw a line with us Liangshan! ”
Shi Jin nodded and said: "I know this, but now those high-ranking officials in the court, whether they are scribes, they will not easily have anything to do with us, so they can only choose an ambitious official like Song Jiang to operate." And I will not completely entrust my hopes and responsibilities to him! ”
Shi Jin turned his head to Zhu Gui and said, "Brother Zhu Gui, you send someone to find a beauty billet, and after spending money to buy her, don't send her to Liangshan, secretly send it to a private house." I'm going to train it myself! ”
Zhu Gui and Zhu Wu heard that Shi Jin was going to find a beauty billet and to train him personally, and they couldn't help but think crookedly, when they just wanted to persuade Shi Jin not to indulge in women's sex, Wu Yong took the lead in reacting and said: "Big brother wants to make a beauty plan and offer Xi Shi and Diao Chan to the official family?" ”
Shi Jin nodded and said, "Today's official family is a womanizer, how can I not be beautiful as an adult?" ”
"Liutao Wenhua": "Raise its chaotic ministers to confuse them, and enter the United States to confuse them." ”
Offering beautiful women, the three souls of Song Huizong fell into seven spirits, and the spring night was bitter and short, and the king did not come to the early dynasty from then on.
If there are virtuous ministers who play hard persuasion, then the beauty blows the pillow wind and performs a few bitter love scenes, which can provoke the relationship between the official family and the virtuous minister, so that the official family and them will be separated from morality.
Wu Yong shouted: "Good strategy! It's just that this kind of beauty not only has to be outstanding, but also has a very high literary cultivation in today's official family, if you want to please him, I am afraid that this woman's literature must not be bad, so that she can be with the official family and win the favor of the official family. It's hard to find such a woman! ”
Shi Jin nodded and said, "But that's the case." However, literary cultivation is secondary, can be cultivated, and even a team of scribes can be formed to support him behind her. The most important thing is that this woman must be dexterous, know how to read people's faces, figure out people's hearts, and have the ability to be resourceful. This is the only way to please the faint king, provoke the relationship between the monarch and the minister, and complete my plan! ”
Wu Yong thought for a moment, nodded and said, "But that's the case!" ”
Seeing that Wu Yong was more sensitive than himself and his mind was faster than himself, Zhu Wu was also a little unwilling.
He couldn't help but remind Shi Jin: "Big brother, although this beauty plan is very important. But at present, it is still necessary to prevent the imperial court from sending troops to encircle and suppress Liangshan! ”
Shi Jin listened to Zhu Wudi's persuasion, and arched his hand and said, "Thank you Brother Xian for reminding me, I don't know if Brother Xian has any good suggestions?" ”
Zhu Wu persuaded Shi Jin: "Big brother, we used to be famous, and many people didn't know the strength of our Liangshan. But now we have first eradicated the thieves in Jinbao Mountain, conquered Zhujiazhuang, defeated officers and soldiers one after another, broke Qingzhou and Xucheng, and now eradicated Zengtou City. Our Liangshan is famous far and wide, and Weizhen Jingdong Road. It's time to play the banner of solicitation, recruit heroes from all walks of life, and strengthen the strength of Liangshan! ”
Shi Jin felt that it made sense, so he sent Zhu Gui to spread the news that Liangshan had recruited heroes and wise men.
As Liangshan wanted to recruit talents, as soon as the news that Shi Jinhao met the world's heroes came out, many people were moved.
Within a few days, a person came to the Dongshan Hotel.
