Chapter 272: Arrangements for Chao Gai and the Others
When the two parties were deadlocked, Lin Chong finally arrived on horseback, so this matter was resolved without a solution under Lin Chong's peace.
Yang Zhi was appeased by Lin Chong and continued to train his cavalry.
Lin Chong arched his hand and said, "Chao Tianwang, Wu Xuexue, Mr. Gongsun, you can't help it.
It's just because the right talent lies in the fact that Taiwei Chen of the imperial court is talking about Zhao'an, so it has been delayed, and there is a lot of negligence, please forgive me! β
How could Chao Gai and the others say anything at this time, and Chao Gai hurriedly returned the salute and said, "We are all people who have committed the great crime of blindness, and we have nowhere to live."
I have heard for a long time that the Liangshan Army is recruiting talents, and I have come to join the gang all the way, but I don't want to meet the old enmity of the Yang system, if it is not compatible, I will wait for everyone to retire on their own, but we must not break the spirit of Lin Junism. β
Lin Chong said with a smile: "Your Birthday Gang incident has offended Cai Jing, and the imperial court is in a hurry to arrest you, where can you go?" β
Chao Gai was puzzled: "Then the Lin army lord is going to accept us?" β
"It's up to you to choose."
Lin Chong first asked the medical soldiers on the side to cover Chao, and Li Kui checked the injuries, bandaged the wounds, and then said: "If you want to stay, you can stay, but with all due respect, you won't be reused."
Chao Tianwang, this is not the first time we have met, after the Liangshan army eliminated the bullies in Xixi Village, I went to visit the Heavenly King.
At the beginning, I advised Tianwang Haosheng to pursue a promising career as a private businessman, and not to think about anything else.
In fact, I also know a little about Chao Tianwang, in my opinion, Chao Tianwang is really not a rebellious material; And it is impossible for a person like Chao Tianwang to come to my account as a pawn.
What I mean is that if King Chao wants to stay, he will follow me Liangshan to run the fleet of maritime merchants, go overseas for a while, see and learn.
After a year and a half, when Jeju and Yunzhou are all ruled by my Liangshan army, King Chao Tianwang can still return to his ancestral house and be his own rich man, and don't get involved in the rebellion. β
"What about the other brothers?"
In fact, for Lin Chong's arrangement, Chao Gai really thinks it's very good, he is not a person who does big things, and he has never thought of doing big things.
Of course, it would be great to be able to return to the ancestral home and continue to do private business. However, he is also righteous, so he naturally has to think about his brothers.
"It's the same, they can follow King Chao to do things, or they can do something else, according to their hearts.
If Wu Xuexue is willing, he can stay in Liangshan School to teach; Liu Tang, Dai Zong, and Li Kui can start as a pawn, but my Liangshan Army has strict military discipline, so I am afraid that they will not be restrained;
I don't know much about Mr. Gongsun, but I can observe it slowly; Bai Sheng can be a petty officer in the special service battalion; Han Bolong let him follow Chao Tianwang. β
In fact, among these eight people, Lin Chong wanted to receive Gongsun Sheng the most.
Maybe it was too deeply affected, you must know that in the original Water Margin story, this Gongsun Sheng is too good.
Familiar with the formation, calling for wind and rain and borrowing the east wind, these can only be regarded as pediatrics in the hands of Gongsun Sheng; This product can be sprinkled into soldiers, cut paper into spirits, and use mana to control weapons to fight in the air; It can also summon the five-color divine dragon, conjure up the Dapeng of the Nine Heavens, the five thunder heavenly heart righteous magic powers, conjure the golden armor god man on the head, the divine fire method, and make people take off their weapons at will, etc.
When reading the book at that time, Lin Cong even felt that the other 107 people on Liangshan together were not his opponents, and he alone would fight the world.
However, after crossing over, Lin Chong successively met Fan Rui and Ma Ling, who knew Taoism in the book, and after careful inquiry, he learned that none of them knew the legendary Taoism, and no one had ever seen this kind of Taoism.
But even so, Lin Chong was still very interested in Gongsun Sheng, and among these people, he also felt the best about Gongsun Sheng.
As soon as Wu Yong heard what Lin Chong said, his heart suddenly cooled a lot, and secretly said How could this Lin Chong always treat me as a pedant who can only teach.
Also, how can he call me a pedant, but call Gongsun Sheng a sir, isn't my wisdom as good as Gongsun Sheng?
At that moment, Wu Yong hurriedly said: "Thank you Jun Master Lin for taking me in, Xiao Sheng is grateful, but Jun Master Lin may not know much about us."
For example, this Li Kui is born with brute strength, and he is not afraid of death when he fights, which is a good material for charging into battle......"
Lin Chong waved his hand and stopped his words: "But what Wu Xuexue doesn't know is that compared with personal martial arts, my Liang Shanjun pays more attention to discipline, orders and prohibitions, walking in unison, and cooperating.
Obviously, this brother is not the kind of person who can be disciplined and can stand the restraints. β
Speaking of which, Lin Chong really didn't like to see this Li Kui, and he didn't understand why so many people in later generations would think that Li Kui was so cute, and even liked this person.
Because in Lin Chong's view, Li Kui cannot be regarded as a normal person at all, a typical antisocial personality disorder that has not been well educated since childhood, and his behavior and ideological logic cannot be measured by the standards of normal people at all.
The first of the three most important characteristics of antisocial personality disorder is that it is highly aggressive, which Li Kui undoubtedly highly agrees with.
In the original story, when he accompanied Song Jiang to dinner in Jiangzhou, because there was only mutton and no beef in the store, he was furious and poured fish soup on the bartender's head; After the little girl sang, Song Jiang and the others were listening to the song and didn't have the heart to listen to him, and this guy was angry and used his fingers to stun the little girl;
After that, he and Dai Zong ate noodles together in a roadside shop, and the old man on the opposite side arrived first, shouldn't the noodles be eaten first? This thing slapped the table and splashed the old man's face with hot noodle soup, not only did he not apologize, but he felt justified and wanted to beat someone.
These are just trivial things, but it can already be seen that Li Kui is highly aggressive, and the targets of the attacks are ordinary people who can't beat him, typical bullying the weak, bullying the weak and fearing the hard.
In major matters, this guy is even more cut down on innocent people, "regardless of the officers and the people, the corpses are all over the field, and the blood flows into the canal", "the most people are killed", and as soon as they kill people, this guy simply falls into a carnival-like ferocity and annihilation of humanity.
The second characteristic of antisocial personality disorder is the lack of shame, which is also vividly expressed in Li Kui.
Speak rudely, and if you are not polite, you will not say it. When eating and drinking, he directly fished things out of the bowl with his dirty hands, and ate a table of juice like a savage, and finally even Dai Zong felt ashamed when he saw it, and after he left, he said to Song Jiang: "Brother, don't blame the little brother for bringing such people to meet, there is no decency at all, humiliation and killing!" β
It can be seen that in the eyes of Dai Zong, a normal person, these people Li Kui did were shameful and ashamed, but Li Kui did not feel this shame at all.
This is undoubtedly the most terrible, a normal person who has done bad things often knows that he has done something wrong, and will have a sense of guilt, and can also be reformed through labor reform, ideological education and other means;
However, an antisocial personality like Li Kui is justified and has no sense of guilt when he does things that hurt nature and reason. For example, when the axe splits the small ya, Li Kui does not have a sense of guilt and shame.
Such a person, in Lin Chong's opinion, is almost difficult to change.
The third characteristic of antisocial personality disorder is a disregard for family affection and family responsibilities, which Li Kui is also fully qualified for.
Li Kui is actually a big unfilial son.
This thing killed someone in his hometown and left his wife and ran away, which can only be said that he is aggressive, impulsive and does not consider the consequences, and it is not unfilial.
But after the court granted amnesty, this product still never returned to the hometown to see the old lady, which is unfilial; After Song Jiang spent money to buy him, he was rich, and he never thought of going home to see his wife; After going to Liangshan, he still didn't think of the old lady at home.
Later, Song Jiang took Song Taigong to Liangshan to enjoy the blessings, and he still didn't think of the old lady at home for a big feast every day; It wasn't until Gongsun Sheng suddenly proposed to go home to visit his wife that Li Kui suddenly remembered - it turns out that I also have an old lady at home.
In short, this person's problems are simply innumerable.
Of course, it does not mean that Li Kui does not have advantages, such as his loyalty, bravery, dare to fight and kill without fear of death, naΓ―ve and straightforward, dare to tell the truth, etc., these are the places where many people in later generations like him.
Although Lin Chong always felt that he was suspected of pretending to be stupid.
Moreover, it doesn't mean that this Li Kui is heinous now, and he can't teach it at all.
While he hasn't become too bad now, working hard to correct it, and spending more than ten times more effort, it is still possible to correct him.
But Lin Chong and everyone on Liangshan have their own careers and missions, why should they spend so much thought and cost to change and save such a person.
Wouldn't it be nice to put more effort into other more normal people and do a little more business?
He is not Song Jiang, he needs to find a henchman and thug who has no concept of right and wrong and shame, and is absolutely loyal.
The Lin family Liangshan doesn't need to be like the Song family's Liangshan, engaging in such scheming and unsightly things.
Therefore, even if a person like Li Kui really joined the Liangshan Army and started as a small soldier, Lin Chong would never give him any preferential treatment and special treatment.
In the end, the biggest possibility is that Li Kui was expelled from the military for disobedience to discipline, and even executed by military law.
Wu was speechless for a while, and he wanted to speak and stopped.
Lin Chong smiled and said, "I know the mind of a pedant, a pedant should want to do a great career vigorously, right?" β
Wu Yong was silent, his mood was depressed, and Chao Gai hurriedly said on the side when he saw this: "Master Lin doesn't know, Mr. Wu has learned poetry and books since he was a child, is full of economy, is proficient in literature and martial arts, and is resourceful. Mr. Wu has great ambitions......"
Lin Chong couldn't help but smile and said, "Let me guess, the robbery of the Birth Gang was planned by Wu Xuexue throughout the whole process, right?" β
Chao Gai had to nod.
Lin Chong smiled again, looked at Wu Yongdao, and said: "You may not know, my Liangshan army is in Jeju, Yunzhou is full of secret agents, and there is one by the side of the Jeju prefect, so I know the ins and outs of this matter, and my Liangshan army knows everything."
I have a little immature opinion about this plan of the pedant, do you want to hear it? β
Wu Yong was stunned for a moment, and then said, "...... I would like to hear about it. β
"I think it's a terrible plan."
ββ¦β¦β
Hearing that Lin Chong opened his mouth and criticized the plan that he was quite proud of in his heart for nothing, Wu Yong suddenly froze, his face was red and white for a while, he wanted to argue, but finally gave up.
Let's listen to what Lin Chong has to say.
So Lin Chong said: "In my opinion, the pedant's plan to successfully rob the Birth Gang seems to be very ingenious, but in fact, it is full of loopholes.
First of all, Chao Tianwang is a famous hero in Jeju and even in the north of Jingdong Hebei, and there are countless people who have seen him, so he let Chao Tianwang participate in the action without disguise.
As a result, it was because Chao Tianwang was recognized when he lived in the hotel, which made you exposed so quickly, which is a flaw.
Second, Huangnigang is too close to Dongxi Village as the location of the crime, and the rabbits don't eat the grass next to the nest, so you won't go to Yunzhou to commit the crime?
Because of this, Bai Sheng was quickly recognized.
Third, the seven of you, Chao Tianwang is a celebrity in Jeju, Liu Tang and Li Kui all have special appearances, Wu Xuexuan, and Mr. Gongsun are completely incompatible with these people's temperament, how can the seven of you not attract attention when they appear together?
Fourth, and most importantly, you are doing earth-shattering cases, and you can't bear any hardship. Knowing that the guest house wants to register its name, and there are many people, he still has to go to the guest house, isn't this deliberately sending clues to the imperial court?
In June, you can't find a ruined temple in the wilderness and a cave to deal with it overnight?
Also, the load of wine that Bai Sheng picked, you can't let him hide near Huangnigang in advance, you have to carry a load of wine in broad daylight to swagger through the market? β
At this time, Wu Yong's white skin had turned the color of pig liver, but how could Lin Chong care if he was angry or not?
So Lin Chong continued, with a serious expression: "So, in my opinion, the so-called proficient in Wen Taowu strategy and resourceful are mostly pedantic self-feelings.
In my opinion, it is better to teach well, don't always think about doing a big job, and know that peace is a blessing. β
Chao Gai and the others suddenly fell silent, only to see Chao Gai nodding slightly, and it seemed that he also felt that the life of ordinary people was very good; Gongsun Sheng, Liu Tang and others didn't have any ambitions and didn't care much; Only Wu Yong, although he didn't say it, Lin Chong could see that he was not convinced.
After a while, I heard Wu Yong say: "In this case, please also ask the Lord Lin to allow us to build a thatched hut by the water and live for the time being, and when the limelight passes, we will leave." β
Lin Chong shook his head and said with a smile: "It seems that you are still bent on rebelling and doing great things, even so, I have a place to go here, you can go there to avoid a while."
As for whether you can make a name for yourself after you get there, whether you live or die, I don't care about it. β
Wu Yong's eyes couldn't help but light up, and he hurriedly said: "Please also ask Master Lin Jun to elaborate." β
"That's right, more than 500 miles away from Liangshan Shuibo, northeast of Qingzhou, there is a Erlong Mountain, to say that this mountain is steep and abnormal, surrounded by steep cliffs, only between the two mountains there is a road to go up the mountain.
There was a group of robbers on Erlong Mountain before, who dared to go down the mountain to rob my Liangshan army, and I wiped it out easily, but I didn't destroy the cottage, if a few people were interested, they could go to Erlong Mountain to settle down temporarily.
As long as you do things carefully, presumably Cai Jing and Jeju Qian Zhizhou will not think that you have escaped to Eryongshan in Qingzhou. β
Wu Yong glanced at Chao Gai and the others, his expression was a little excited, and he saw him say a few words in Chao Gai's ear, and then Chao Gai had a hesitant look on his face, but in the end he bowed his hand and said: "Don't thank you for your kindness, let me repay ...... later."
Lin Chong waved his hand, but said: "There is just one sentence that I have to say in front, the banner of my Liangshan Army is to do the right thing for heaven and protect the land and the people." It's just that it's still in the development stage, so it's not good to be too public, but sooner or later, one day it will be to sweep away all the bandits in Jingdong and Hebei.
At that time, if I heard that you had robbed passing merchants, harassed local people, and even killed and injured people, at that time, in the eyes of my Liangshan army, you would be bandits, and we would not show mercy when we exterminate them. β
Chao Gai was stunned, and said in his heart that going up the mountain is not a bandit, isn't the bandit just going to rob the passing merchants?
"Lord Lin said let's sit and eat the sky?"
"No, isn't King Chao a private businessman, you can still continue to be a private businessman. I can provide you with a supply of goods, and you can also help me collect silkworm cocoons, raw silk, porcelain and tea, to ensure that you have to earn. β
After a pause, Lin Chong said again: "If you don't want to just be a private businessman, but really want to do a big business, you can also copy the model of the Liangshan Army, recruit poor peasants to train into an army, and fight against the government."
It just so happens that you are also going to stay on the island for three or five days, and I can send a capital head and an instructor to accompany you, if there is anything you don't understand, you can ask them how our Liangshan army trains the army, and you can visit and study.
It's just that you can't go out of this area, and you can't violate the military discipline of my Liangshan army, after all, the current imperial court is on the island. β
