Chapter 427: The Liao people want to fight the grass valley



Duan Jing lived here, and this time it was a report. Duan Jingzhu also said: "There are military dogs in my brother's army. Our Mabang Yang Lin brothers have a leopard. Very well trained. Very obedient. Much more powerful than a military dog. ”

Chao Gai was very happy to hear this. Asked: "Brother Yang Lin is proficient in leopard training methods. ”

Yang Lin clenched his fists. said: "It's not that Yang Lin is stingy. It's that there is no such thing at all. I'm a leopard cub that I rescued from Orion. It's been seven or eight years since I raised it. Leopards are extremely wild. Obedience is not good. ”

Chao Gai secretly said that it was a pity. I thought Yang Lin had a unique method of taming beasts.

"The Tongda Horse Gang is just growing. There will be more trouble in the future. I want to focus on the Yang Lin brothers and his leopards. Assemble a team of leopard commandos. Specialized in dealing with issues for the development of the Tongda Horse Gang. I don't know what you think. Chao Gai said.

Duan Jingzhu and the others all agreed. It was immediately decided to take Yang Lin as the core. Form a Leopard Commando. The whole member is no more than fifty people. Weapons are used with bows and arrows, spears, and goose feathers. The Leopard Commandos serve the Tongda Horse Gang though. However, as an armed force, he is directly subordinate to the military headquarters. The same nature as the Special Operations Branch. It belongs to special forces who do not wear military uniforms.

Duan Jingzhu didn't have time to stay in Jeju for a long time. After resting for two days, the caravan returned to Liao. In addition to leaving the horses. also brought a big news to Chao Gai. The wolf lord of the Liao Kingdom in the area of Yutian County. Planning is underway to go south to hit the grass valley.

What is the grass valley? The people of the Central Plains harvest their crops in autumn. The steppe people marched south in the autumn when the horses were fat and strong. Snatch the wealth of the Central Plains. It's called Grass Valley.

The destination of the Liao people to fight the grass valley is Zhending Mansion. Zhending Mansion is a border pass. There were more than 20,000 soldiers. It should be a breeze to deal with the scattered Liao soldiers going south. What's more, Chao Gai's hands are not that long. I can't control the affairs of Zhending Mansion. At most, it is to notify Bian Xiang and Luda in Jingcheng County to strengthen their vigilance. Shi Jin, who informed the salt works, was also careful.

Let's talk about Dong Ping. It is no accident that the army has revolted. Dong Ping has always wanted to marry Cheng Wan'er, the daughter of Cheng Governor's Mansion. But the prefect of Cheng didn't look down on Dong Ping, who was pretentious. The contradiction of one article and one military force has accumulated for a long time. Recently, there has been a locust plague in Dongping Province. Cheng Zhifu consulted with Dong Ping. Ordered Dong Ping to send troops. Assist in the extermination of locusts. Dong Ping used the excuse that the army was only engaged in combat missions. did not obey the orders of the prefect Cheng. This made Cheng Zhifu very annoyed. Helplessly, Governor Cheng had to be cheeky and ask Chao Gai to come over and help. I didn't expect Chao Gai to really come. Moreover, it has effectively curbed the development and spread of locusts.

The discord between Dong Ping and Cheng Taishou is also well known on the rivers and lakes. Since Song Jiang failed to frame Qin Ming. Wang Ying asked Wu Song to cut off the eggs. The morale of the entire Qingfeng Mountain is low.

Song Jiang and the big guy discussed. decided to invite the heavyweight Dong Ping up the mountain. So Song Jiang wrote to Dong Ping one after another. Lots of gifts and money were sent.

Just one day before Dong Ping raised his army. Qiu Xiaoyi, a person from the Flying Heavenly Dao, returned Song Jiang's letter. Dong Ping loves to listen to flattery. Qiu Daoren's mouth was sweet. In a few words, Dong Pingle said it.

Dong Ping hosted a banquet for Qiu Xiaoyi in the restaurant. Qiu Xiaoyi saw Dong Ping and said sullenly: "Dong Dujian." Tell me what's on your mind. How to drink stuffy wine? ”

Dong Ping sighed and said, "Good cabbage is about to be eaten by pigs." It's psychologically uncomfortable. ”

Qiu Xiaoyi said, "Oh. How to say this. ”

Dong Ping said: "The relationship between Ben Jiang and Cheng Zhifu's daughter has always been very good. Originally, Lord Cheng was ready to marry his daughter to this general recently. But who knows. Yuncheng's Chao Gai snatches love. It's going to be foolish. The heart of the daughter of Lord Cheng who cheated. ”

Qiu Xiaoyi was angry when he heard it. Between Qingfeng Mountain and Chao Gai, it can be described as bitter and bitter.

Qiu Xiaoyi scolded: "I'm bah." He's giving something. It's just a guarantee for selling illicit salt. Do something small to deceive the people. forced away Song Gongming's brother. Brother Song Gongming fell into the grass on the mountain. His sins were great. In your Dongping Mansion, you rely on your own power. forced the local wealthy Ximen Qing into a corner. How many people who are in the medicinal herb business have ruined his family and killed his family. There are a lot of them in your Dongping Mansion. ”

Qiu Xiaoyi scolded. Dong Ping didn't expect Chao Gai to have so many sins.

"How did he force the herb merchant to be cornered." Dong Ping asked.

Qiu Xiaoyi said: "In order to achieve the purpose of monopoly. He asked pharmacies to sell medicinal herbs at a fifty percent price. He also opened a number of medical clinics. Send medicine in four directions. The other medical clinics and pharmacies are out of business. ”

What Qiu Xiaoyi said is low-cost medical care. Now, the price of medical treatment and medicine for the entire Jeju people is only one-third of the price before. Although Dongping Province does not implement low-cost medical care. However, the medicinal herbs are sold at the current price. Government-run clinics deliver medicine to the poor. It has also hurt a lot of business for local pharmacists and medical clinics. Think from the perspective of a pharmacist. Chao Gai is indeed a heinous sin.

Qiu Xiaoyi said: "General Dong is known as Dong Yibang. Merry Twin Guns. How can you be afraid of a Chao Gai. If you want me to say it. Non-toxic not husband. Take advantage of the surname Cheng and the surname Chao to discuss things. You brought the troops to a nest. Then go up to Qingfeng Mountain. For you to sit with the second master. Isn't it better than being angry here? ”

Dong Ping hesitated. After all, there is a big difference between bandits and officers and soldiers.

Qiu Xiaoyi said: "Don't look at Brother Song Gongming's grass now. But Brother Gongming is specially waiting for the imperial court to recruit An. After all, General Dong understands the national conditions of our Great Song Dynasty. There are many envoys who are born in a reckless manner. Then he was recruited. became a great official. There is a way to build bridges and repair roads, and it does not live long. Murder and arson. So, ah. It's not a shame to fall into the grass. Besides, you can't just watch your beloved woman roll under someone else's bed. ”

Bang. Dong Ping dropped the teacup. "Say no more," he said. You go out. Let me think. ”

Qiu Xiaoyi was not angry. He knew he was one step away from success. Sure enough, it didn't take long. Dong Ping said that the soldiers would kill Cheng Zhifu and Chao Gai in the future. snatched Cheng Wan'er.

That's it, Dong Ping and Qiu Xiaoyi discussed. Dong Ping is very confident. He is confident in his martial arts. More than a thousand elite soldiers were mobilized. The idea was that Chao Gai and Cheng Zhifu swooped down on the government when they were in the government. Kill the two. Then he robbed the treasury. Let's rush to Qingfeng Mountain.

But these seemingly secretive actions of his. Chao Gai has already found out. Armor and weapons were issued to Li Kui and Wu Songbu in advance. There were also 600 cavalry of the two battalions of Luan Tingyu and Niu Gao on the warships in Dongping Port. But then things went well. Chao Gai did not use cavalry.

Dong Ping was slapped in the face by Cheng Wan'er. The injuries were not serious. But the pain of the heart. It's more than wrong to deal with a Luo Yun. But the soldiers around Luo Yun are all elite soldiers who don't want to die. So Dong Ping doesn't love war. After escaping, he led more than 200 cavalry out of the city gate and Qiu Xiaoyi rushed to Qingfeng Mountain. This is how Dong Ping escaped.

Dong Ping's escape was not hidden. Within a few days, Li Yun found out. Governor Cheng was overjoyed when he found out. Now I can finally give an explanation to the court. Write to the imperial court. Let's just say that Dong Ping colluded with Qingfeng Mountain Bandits. To rob Dongping Mansion. Fortunately, I found it in time. Bloody battle. Finally saved the city.

Time flies. This time. Chaogai has been traveling back and forth with Jeju and Dongpyeong. There is more time to contact with Hu Sanniang, Cheng Wan'er, and Pan Jinlian. After a period of time, a happy life was as sweet as honey.

In the blink of an eye, it's already May. Hundreds of miles of water moorings have also held dragon boat races that can only be found in the south. The standard of this event is very high. It is jointly organized by Jeju and Dongpyeong. A first prize was established. Nearly 500 times. Generally, there are more than a dozen people in a dragon boat. The average score is dozens of times. 2nd place 100 runs. The third place is 90 times. Fourth to tenth fifty times. The high prize money is attractive. There are hundreds of dragon boat boats that have signed up at one time. There are also many tourists from nearby states and counties. The hotels and inns in Jeju and Dongpyeong near Subo are full. This is the tourism economy. Governor Cheng praised Chao Gai for his good brain.

This kind of thing. Chao Gai naturally has no need to be in the limelight. There are also a lot of masters in Cheng Zhifu. Directly let them host.

Chao Gai has more important things to do. Originally, Ma Qiang and Ma Jin went to Lin Chong and Tang Bin on New Jeju Island. The Teng brothers were transferred to Liu Tang on Black Dragon Island. In the Liu Tang reclamation camp, each led 500 cavalry.

The first time these four people went to sea, they were very similar to Zhang Shun and Wang Liuding. Curious baby alike. Take a look at the east. Take a look at the west. Along the way, it was both surprise and joy. The fleet arrives in New Jeju. Ma Qiang and Ma Jin are in place. But the Teng brothers had to continue north.

Chao Gai has just caught up with the big day of shipbuilding in New Jeju. Fifty medium-sized ships were launched. Large cargo ships are no better than small fishing boats. Once it's built, it can be given to customers. To sail for a while first. See if there is no problem and then hand it over to the customer.

Look at the huge ships that are overwhelming on the sea. Ma Jin said: "I'll drop a day." No wonder my brother is so wealthy. There were so many large cargo ships. ”

Chao Gai smiled: "These are fifty ships that are worth a fortune. It's not ours. This is the ship of dozens of trading houses. ”

Come to the New Jeju Barracks. Chao Gai beats the drum and gathers the generals. Lin Chong, Tang Bin, Hua Lei, Huang Yue and other middle-level officers arrived.

The two brothers, Ma Qiang and Ma Jin, are not stage frightened.

Chao Gai said: "Lin Chong, Tang Bin." What happened to the cavalry you two trained. ”

Lin Chong said: "Eighty percent of the cavalry is already skilled in horsemanship. It's enough to do a queue charge. It will take two months to fight. ”

Tang Bin also said: "Thanks to Sect Leader Lin. If it weren't for the fact that Lin Jiaotou taught well. The situation is certainly not as good as it is now. ”

Chao Gai nodded. This cavalry was not made up of steppe people. Therefore, I am not in a hurry to train. It's not that you can ride a horse, it's a cavalry. Being able to ride a horse is not the same thing as being able to fight on a horse.

Chao Gai said: "Ma Qiang." You and Lin Chong are a lieutenant. ”

"Yes." Ma Qiang came out of the line.

"Ma Jin. You and Tang Bin are a lieutenant. “

"Yes." Ma Jindao.
