The news that the Liangshan army suddenly gathered in Pukou had already been reported by the imperial court to Tong Guan, and Tong Guan was taken aback when he got this report: "What are the Liangshan thieves going to do?" Difficult...... Could it be that it is going to rebel again! At that moment, Tong Guan ordered to send a detailed investigation of the news; On the one hand, he ordered the rapid mobilization of military horses and prepared for battle. Pen? Interesting?

Outside the north gate of Pukou City, there was a neat and quiet queue of more than 20,000 Liangshan foot cavalry troops. On the left side of the army, the yellow lacquer flagpole of the sky is erected, and an apricot yellow flag flutters in the wind on the flagpole, and the big book "for the heavens, auxiliary to the country and the people" eight characters; A red lacquer flagpole on the right, there is a bright red flag, with a big book with the word "handsome", rippling in the wind. There were many officers on the stage, with silver and bronze armor, and they were majestic. In front of the platform, there is a shelf, on which many bright variegated flags are inserted, and there are musical instruments and golden drums, which are in good order. Zhu Biao sat in a certain tent under the stage, and Sun Sheng, the military advisor of the Liangshan Army, entered Yunlong, and several people waited beside him. A loess road in the middle, starting from the dragon pier, looking at the past is boundless, until the front of the army.

At this time, the sun is off the ground, and the fog is gone. At this moment, I saw a horse galloping over in the distance, and he came to Zhu Biao in a moment. He didn't get off the horse, but just arched his hand on the horse and said: "Report to the Privy Envoy Liangshanbo Special Administrative Region Minister, the army is ready, just wait for the Privy Envoy to give the order of the Prime Minister, and the drill can start immediately." ”

Zhu Biao stood up, walked outside the tent, waved a command flag in the air, and shouted, "The drill begins!" ”

As soon as Zhu Biao's voice fell, "Boom, boom, boom", the nine horns sounded loudly, and after the horns, the whole army shouted in unison: "The Liangshan Army is mighty!" The Liangshan Army is mighty! The Liangshan Army is mighty! The shouts resounded across the field.

The surroundings of the Liangshan military drill were already surrounded by people watching, densely packed, crowded with people, ordinary people had seen such a formation, and they were all stunned and surprised for a while.

The Liangshan army, under the command of Zhu Biao Lingqi, sometimes marched in a double-line formation with crane wings; Sometimes the scales clash with each other; Sometimes long snakes sweep the ground; From time to time, the cone-shaped sharp arrow array, the people who only watched the Zhou turn were dazzled and smacked their tongues.

Suddenly, Zhu Biao waved a command flag, and the Liangshan infantry army that was still changing the formation was immediately divided into two teams, divided into two sides, and a cavalry rushed out under the leadership of a Liangshan general, and the Liangshan general sat down and straddled a snow-white horse, wearing a soapy dragon and tiger armor, holding a rotten silver spear, a phoenix carving bow on his back, and a leopard's tail pot hung on the saddle, and the pot was full of silver cluster arrows. Yes, this will be Liang Shanbo's first archer Xiao Li Guanghuarong.

The major legions of the Liangshan Army all sent people to participate in this exercise, that is, the Third Army Corps in the Suzhou and Hangzhou areas that was directly opposite the Fangla Army was under the command of the double whip, and Hu Yanzhuo also sent Li Guanghuarong to participate in the march.

The cavalry rushed to the front of the infantry army, and a group of scarecrows dressed in the armor of the northern golden people appeared in front of them, and Hua Rong shouted: "Archers prepare!" ”

At this shout, the cavalry that had just formed a column immediately lined up in a horizontal column, everyone held a longbow in their hands, wound their arrows, and then pulled the bow together like a full moon, only to hear Hua Rong shout: "Release!" ”

"Whoosh!" Hua Rong took the lead, and then, "Whoosh! "Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" ．．．．．． A hundred arrows were fired in a volley, the bow and arrow rose into the air, only to hear the arrow shaft cut in mid-air, cutting through the air and making a long whistle of "hmm-", a thousand feather arrows, drawing a perfect arc in the air, and then all of them shot at the scarecrow on the opposite side.

Just as the people were still amazed by the stunts of the sharpshooters of the Liangshan Army, suddenly, two clouds of dust and smoke rolled towards the scarecrow. On the left, a large flag fluttered in the sky above a cloud of dust and smoke, with the inscription "Liangshan Five Tigers will win the big sword"; On the right, a large banner ripples in the sky above the dust and smoke, and it reads "Liangshan Five Tigers Will Leopard Head Lin Chong".

When these two "dust and smoke" rushed in front of the scarecrow, all the scarecrows became a puddle of rotten grass and scattered on the ground.

Zhu Biao took out another order flag and shouted: "the dragon and tiger array!" ”

The command flag waved, and the red flag on the handsome platform swept to the ground and was erected again, but when the letter cannon flew up, the horns and drums in the formation sounded in unison, and the infantry, cavalry, and crossbowmen launched for the first time according to the chain of steps.

At the head of Pukou City, the jade unicorn Lu Junyi and the god machine military master Zhu Wu who had just come back stood side by side, Zhu Wu praised: "The plan of the village owner is very high, Tong Guan's fine work must be wrapped in the people, once he saw the drill of our army, he went back to tell Tong Guan, Tong Guan must not be able to guess the true intentions of our army, as long as he can scare Tong Guan, as long as the officers and soldiers do not dare to act rashly in about two months, and destroy Fang La, who has been injured, it is enough, Fang La is destroyed, and half of the south of the Yangtze River is under the control of my Liangshan army, At that time, Tong Guan became more and more afraid to face my Liangshan army. ”

Lu Junyi also had to admire Zhu Biao, and said: "The wisdom of the owner of the village is often unexpected, and this kind of plan to hide from the sky and cross the sea is not something that people with great wisdom and courage dare not do." Once the 300,000 officers and soldiers are frightened by this kind of exercise, it is a real joke. ”

Zhu Wudao: "That's not just a joke, it means that the Zhao Song Dynasty has run out of gas!" ”

In the decisive battle of Jiangzhou, the Liangshan army captured a total of 180,000 Chu troops, selected 80,000 of them to join the Liangshan army, and the rest were ordered to return to their hometowns and distribute land for farming. Fortunately, Wang Qing killed the local tyrants and inferior gentry in his country, and a large amount of land was barren, so there was no need for Zhu Biao to fight the local tyrants again.

Now the territory of the Liangshan army is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more soldiers and horses, but the officials who govern the people and the generals who command the army are lacking for a while. Second, it is also a drop in the bucket, far from being enough to pay. Zhu Biao thought of the generals who captured Fang La, but even if he persuaded them, I am afraid it would not be enough, the most important thing is that although these people have the courage to kill, but they have no ability to govern the country, they can win the world immediately, and they can't rule the world immediately, how could Wang Lun not understand this truth?

The reason why the Tianping Heavenly Kingdom failed to overthrow the Manchu Qing Dynasty was that there was no shortage of generals in the Taiping Army who could conquer the war, and there were few ministers who governed the country and the country, and now he Zhu Biao occupied Jinling and destroyed Wang Qing, the situation and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom are a little familiar, Zhu Biao secretly said angrily: "Lao Tzu must not reverse the mistakes of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom!" ”

So what to do? Start your own course? This is an important issue, opening a branch is an important weapon of the imperial court, if you openly open a branch to take a scholar, it is equivalent to fighting against the court again, it seems that it is better to wait for Fang La, and then discuss it carefully with the leaders, and find a perfect strategy.
