Liangshan Juyi Hall, dozens of leaders gathered. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Chao Gai is in the center, Song Jiang is on the left, and Wu is on the right.

There was silence in the audience, no one spoke, and everyone was angry.

Chao Gai held a cloth belt in his hand, his face was flushed, the green tendons in his hands were jumping, and his body was trembling.

On the ground in front of Chao Gai, there was a human head, drenched in blood, but the owner of the head could still be vaguely recognized between his faces.

After a long time, Chao Gai suppressed the anger in his heart, and said slowly: "Who sent Bai Sheng to the north to go to the salt?" ”

In fact, there is no need to ask this word, Chao Gai naturally knows who it is in his heart. At this time, Chao Gai was already angry with Song Jiang, whether it was today's incident or the matter of going to Zhujiazhuang, Chao Gai had long been unable to see it. But this Song Jiang is his own life-saving benefactor, and this life-saving grace, for Chao Gai, is to repay him with death and will not blink an eye.

At this time, Chao Gai is really in a dilemma, and it is even more difficult than the last time he faced Wu Song. I can't get used to what my life-saving benefactor does, neither is anger, let alone laissez-faire, it can be seen that Chao Gai is entangled in his heart at this time.

Hearing Chao Gai's question, Song Jiang naturally spoke: "Brother Chao, I arranged for Bai Sheng to go north for a salt trip. But I didn't expect this Wu Song to be so ruthless, and if he doesn't take revenge, how will I Liangshan gain a foothold in the rivers and lakes in the future. ”

Chao Gai asked this sentence knowingly, which was to beat Song Jiang, which meant that he blamed Song Jiang for doing his own private business behind his back. But he didn't want Song Jiang to directly divert the topic to revenge.

"Gongming, you did this extremely inappropriately, and you also knew on the spot what you decided with this Wu Song in front of you. Even if you want to go on a trip, you should discuss it with me, and it won't cause such a tragedy. Chao Gai wanted Song Jiang to admit his mistake, but he still said it himself.

"Brother Chao, who is behind Wu Song, all the brothers know in their hearts, that Zheng Zhi deceived people too much, in Zhujiazhuang, he even directly started to embarrass my Liangshan, Zheng Zhi is so unkind and unjust, it has reached such a point, what else is the matter that has been decided, according to the meaning of the brothers, it is to tear his face with this Zheng Zhi, so that he knows how powerful our Liangshan is."

Song Jiang's words are inseparable from the brothers, and every sentence is inseparable from "I Liangshan", which is already to represent Liangshan. The facts are similar, there are dozens of leaders in Juyitang, and there are only a few who have the same heart as Chao Gai, most of them are with Song Jiang, and it is not unreasonable for Song Jiang to represent Liangshan at this time.

If there was no defeat of Zhujiazhuang, Song Jiang would have been proud of the spring breeze at this time, returned triumphantly, and obtained countless grains, grass, money and silver, and Song Jiang was even more powerful in this Liangshan. Chao Gai himself didn't consciously retreat. Naturally, there will be no conflict between the two on the surface.

But it was a defeat of Zhujiazhuang, Chao Gai was naturally unhappy in his heart, and there was today's incident, Chao Gai was even more angry. Song Jiang also had a weak heart at this time, and between the lack of heart, he lost a lot of affection when he spoke and did things. There is a confrontation between the two today.

At this time, Chao Gai naturally heard the meaning of Song Jiang's words, and asked directly: "What does Gongming think about this matter?" Don't you want to raise troops to fight Cangzhou? ”

"Brother Chao, although my Liangshan is strong now, it has just been defeated, and Zheng Zhi of Cangzhou has two or three thousand elites under his command, so it is not appropriate to use troops to fight at this time. But after all, he has to have a decisive battle with this Zheng Zhi, and now he is naturally recuperating, recruiting troops, and training soldiers. When the time comes, Cangzhou will naturally be no problem. Song Jiang will not follow Chao Gai's words, only say hatred, and he also has a big plan in his heart, that is, to develop his strength and compete with Zheng Zhi.

Chao Gai heard Song Jiang's words, looked at everyone present, and saw that many leaders nodded again and again. And Chao Gai could only shake his head, knowing that he couldn't control this Liangshan, he turned his head to look at Wu Yong, and said a little discouraged: "Let's talk about it." ”

Wu Yong, who is also a person, everyone present, is the most active in his mind. Chao Gai and Song Jiang had a conflict, Wu Yong didn't want to speak, but he was named by Chao Gai to say it, Wu Yong couldn't, looked left and right and said: "Brother Gongming is reasonable, and Brother Chao is extremely reasonable." Now that I am in Liangshan, it is the time to recuperate, and I must strictly train my soldiers and horses to prepare for war. Cangzhou Zheng Zhi is now powerful, let's avoid its edge for the time being, it is best to develop to the south, and Brother Gongming takes salt to make some money and food. Now this salt still has to go, but it can only go south, north of Hebei and Hebei, and it is not suitable to move more. There are a few roads in Gyeonggi, and you can contact more. So much best. ”

At the beginning of Wu Yong's words, both sides were not offended, but they were in and out of words, and they still meant to help Song Jiang. Wu Yong's view of people is also extremely accurate, Song Jiang has great ambitions, and Song Jiang is bent on development. But Chao Gai didn't have such big ambitions, even if Chao Gai fell into the grass, he was forced to be helpless, and he didn't have a plan for Liangshan's future. Song Jiang was different, although Song Jiang did not say it explicitly, Wu Yong could also feel that there was a flame in Song Jiang's heart.

Song Jiang heard Wu Yong's words, and immediately continued: "The military advisor is reasonable, but it is this Wu Song, I have to kill, otherwise I will wait on this rivers and lakes where will I have face." ”

Song Jiang wants to kill Wu Song, and many of them have this idea today, from Chaijiazhuang being beaten by Wu Song, to the last time Wu Song went to Liangshan to beat Li Kui, he also lost his face. Song Jiang got up early with murderous intentions, and today is just the opportunity to say it.

Chao Gai saw that Wu Yong and Song Jiang were singing and harmonizing, and sighed in his heart, and he also knew that he was in Liangshan, to put it bluntly, he was a puppet. But at this time, Chao Gai could see some things, and when he watched coldly, he admired Zheng Zhi a little.

Song Jiang's words fell, but he didn't look at others, but only stared at Wu Yong, which meant that Wu Yong supported him.

Wu Yong hesitated a few times, then looked back at Song Jiang's eyes, and said, "At this time, it's best not to offend this Zheng Zhi." ”

"How can I not be offended, I Liangshan can't help Zheng Zhi, how can this Zheng Zhi dog officer help me Liangshan, it is Zheng Zhi who led the troops to begg, in the face of this wide water, how can he wait for me?" Song Jiang said bluntly, it is this dog official Zheng Zhi, and Song Jiang also has murderous intentions, but it is not realistic to kill Zheng Zhi at this time, but he also thinks in his heart that he will kill this Zheng Zhi after all.

Wu Yong listened to the words, looked at Song Jiang again, and also looked at Chao Gai, feeling quite helpless, just nodded and did not answer. Today's Song Jiang, because of his weak heart, has naturally become a little radical. The defeat of Zhujiazhuang made Song Jiang care more about his face and what the leaders in the audience thought of him. Song Jiang, who is not afraid of being strong, affectionate and righteous, and avenges his brother, is the Hu Baoyi and timely rain in front of everyone.

Wu Yong has really seen the power of Zheng Zhi in Cangzhou, and at this time, he is always a little reluctant to face Zheng Zhi directly. But Wu naturally has grievances in his heart, which is why Wu Yonghui supports Song Jiang's vigorous development of Liangshan's strength.

"Okay, this matter is so settled, tomorrow morning, we must come up with a way to kill Wu Song, it will definitely be done." No one objected anymore, and Song Jiang had already settled the matter.

Wu Yong was still a little worried when he heard this, and hurriedly changed the topic: "Now that my Liangshan has lost troops and lost generals, and there are many less inputs, and it costs a lot to recruit troops and buy horses. ”

Wu Yong's sentence obviously hit Song Jiang's sore spot, although Wu Yong also said things bluntly, and did not mean to blame, but after saying it, Song Jiang inevitably had a weak heart, and between his weak hearts, he said: "Why don't you find a neighboring state capital to borrow some money and grain?" ”

Copycat thieves, it is normal to borrow grain from the state capital, saying that it is borrowing, but it is just robbing. Now that it has reached this point, there is no way but the idea of fighting the government.

But this idea is not bad, these state capitals and cities are really not necessarily difficult to fight in Zhujiazhuang. Song Jiangtou took Huarong Wang Ying and others to fight Qingzhou before, although he did not enter the city, but he also knew that the combat power of the officers and soldiers was low, and it was inferior to the minions in the stockade. As for the Qingzhou prefect, it is even more unbearable, and Song Jiang has seen it with his own eyes.

When Wu Yong heard this, he naturally thought about it in his heart, but he felt that Song Jiang was reasonable, and asked, "I don't know if Brother Gongming is going to borrow grain from that state capital?" ”

Song Jiang thought about it left and right, and replied: "Let's fight that Gaotang Prefecture, which is adjacent to the left and right, Gaotang Prefecture is the smallest, and the military strength must be the weakest. ”

Song Jiang's calculations, Wu Yong sounded, naturally it was extremely reasonable. Gaotang Prefecture is located between Bozhou and Enzhou, and is also adjacent to Qizhou (Jinan), and also borders Yunzhou. Sandwiched between several large state capitals is the first small state capital, and it is so close to Liangshan in Yunzhou, attacking Gaotang Prefecture is naturally the best choice.

"This is feasible, Brother Chao, what do you think?" Wu Yong was very satisfied with the attack on Gaotang Prefecture, but he also opened his mouth to ask Chao Gai. It's Song Jiang, so many sentences left and right, he didn't even look at Chao Gai.

Hearing this, Chao Gai just nodded, slowly put away the strip of cloth he was holding in his hand, and put it in his arms. When I looked up again, I saw that everyone had turned their eyes to him, and it was Song Jiang who also cast their eyes.

At this time, Chao Gai felt that he was still the lord of Liangshan, but he also nodded slightly and replied: "Let's fight." ”

Song Jiang heard this, and immediately answered: "Since Brother Chao has agreed, we will discuss this matter tomorrow, but we are not in a hurry, and the men under my command also need to practice hard for some time, and the armament also needs to be built." After more than a month, the troops will go out of Gaotang Prefecture, and I will be able to sit back and relax in the future. ”

Song Jiang naturally grew wise, and he also had a new understanding of war, soldiers should be trained, and armaments should be built, all of which must be done.

Wu Yong heard Song Jiang's arrangement, and his heart was also a lot calmer, but he was afraid that Song Jiang would be excited for a while, and make the same mistake as Zhujiazhuang. If he loses again, this Liangshan is afraid that it will be on the verge of falling apart. This is something that no one can afford.

In the final analysis, Song Jiang also has the intention of gambling once, breaking Gaotang Prefecture, and there is naturally no need to say much about money and food. And the morale of this Liangshan will inevitably rise, and many brothers will be more centripetal. Such Liangshan is the Liangshan that Song Jiang wants.

If he is defeated, the consequences are really unimaginable, and Song Jiang doesn't want to think about it, he can't be defeated, and he must not be defeated.

The deliberation of Juyitang, from dispute to consensus, is obviously also an integration of power, and it is also laying the foundation for Song Jiang's leadership.
