At this moment, a soldier came in and reported to Fang Layu: "Holy Father, someone from Jiangbei has sent a letter. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

After Fang La and Bao Daoyi glanced at each other, Fang La asked the soldier who reported it, "What about people?" ”

"No one came, the letter was shot with arrows from the river."

"What about faith?"

The soldier handed the letter to Fang La, who opened it and wrote:

Mingjiao Fangla General Junjian:

Since ancient times, a general has achieved ten thousand bones, General Fang for his own imperial thoughts, all the heroes in the south of the Yangtze River have been pushed to the battlefield to die, the remaining heroes cherish the heroes, the heroes cherish the heroes, and indeed can't bear to watch the brothers on both sides die on the battlefield one after another, so he sent a letter, wanting to meet with the general, hoping that the general will be sympathetic to the virtue of a good life, meet with me, discuss the future, and give advice, as for the time and place of the meeting. Hope for revenge.

Payment: The privy envoy of the Great Song Dynasty, Zhu Biao, the envoy of the Liangshanbo Special Administrative Region.

Fang La smiled coldly,

handed the letter to Bao Daoyi, after Bao Daoyi read it, Fang La said: "Zhu Biao is cunning and treacherous, and he made a Quartet Alliance before, just to let my world's heroes take advantage of the fire for him, so she accepted the edict of the imperial court, and now she has come to meet by letter, but it is a repeat of the old trick, Lao Tzu will no longer be fooled by him this time!" ”

Bao Daoyi pondered for a moment and said: "Weichen thinks that there must be a trick in it, but it is better to meet together, which can buy time for our army to regather people." ”

"What do you mean by delaying the army?"

"Exactly."

"How do you reply to the letter?"

Bao Daoyi paced back and forth while saying slowly: "General Zhu Biao, the leader of Liangshan, Jun Jian: A beautiful woman, why did she lose herself among the traitorous ministers and faint kings. However, I don't want to kill more, if Ruo'er also has a compassionate heart, I would like to meet with you——" Bao Daoyi asked, "Your Majesty, where is the best place to meet?" ”

Fang Ladao: "The place of the meeting can neither be in our region nor in his family's territory, so why don't I find a place in the center of the Yangtze River?" ”

Bao Daoyi bowed his head slightly and said: "As far as Weichen knows, there are two mountains in the center of the Yangtze River: one is called Jinshan and the other is called Jiaoshan. There is a temple on the gold mountain, which is built around the mountain, and it is called the temple mountain. There is also a temple on Jiao Mountain, which is hidden in the recess of the mountain, and the situation is not seen, so it is called the mountain temple. The key is that these two mountains are occupying Chuwei Wutou, one is Yangzhou in Huaidong, and one side is Runzhou, which is occupied by our army. ”

Fang La thought for a while: "How about it in Jinshan Temple?" ”

"Okay, then Weichen will ask Zhu Biao to meet in Jinshan Temple in three days in this letter."

Dividing line ********

When Zhu Biao received Fang La's reply, the short-lived Erlang Ruan Xiaowu and the living Yan Luo Ruan Xiaoqi escorted the grain, gold and silver transported from Liangshan, as well as the newly recruited 5,000 soldiers to Pukou County.

First of all, Zhu Biao met with the Ruan brothers in the county government hall, exchanged pleasantries, and asked the officials and soldiers if they could move around Liangshan, and asked how the families of the other brothers lived up, but they did not ask about their own family affairs. Because Zhu Biao now wants stability in the rear, he pressed in his heart: If Li Ruilan died normally, then there is nothing to say, if Li Ruilan died unnaturally, is it useful to ask now? Now that the war with Fang La is at a critical juncture, we must not let the contradictions in the rear affect the war in the front.

Wu Song stepped forward and said: "The owner of the village, Fang Lana asked the owner of the village to go to the Jinshan Temple in the center of the river to meet, we brothers are not familiar with the water, this time, the Ruan family brothers are here, just let the Ruan family brothers stay here, as a way to protect the village owner." ”

Zhu Biao said with a smile: "The second brother has filtered, Fang La is also a hero, and he is a hero in the world, I don't think he can use this kind of indiscriminate means." ”

Lu Zhishen said: "Fang La is a good man and a hero, of course he will not use these three indiscriminate means, but it is difficult to guarantee that the leaders under his command will not do the next three indiscriminate things behind his back." ”

Ruan Xiaoqi said: "The master of the village, the big monk is reasonable, and besides, the work in the water is also our brother's housekeeping ability, since our brother has encountered this matter, it is naturally our duty." ”

Ruan Xiaowu shouted: "Xiao Qi is right, of course the work in this water is for our brothers." ”

Yue Fei said: "Brother of the owner of the village, according to the opinion of the younger brother, it is better to let Zaixia, Lu Fang, Guo Sheng and Senior Brother Lu and Senior Brother Wu Second Brother escort the leader to Jinshan Temple to meet with Fang La, while the elder brother of the Ruan family led the naval army to wait on the river, ready to respond at any time, and the younger brother and the two elder brothers Li Zhong and Du Qian led the brothers to guard Pukou. Zhu Biao listened to Yue Fei's words and smiled secretly in his heart: This Yue Fei, it's a shame that I understand him, otherwise he would let me take risks, and let me transfer my brothers away, and he would be enough to arouse suspicion when he sits alone in Pukou.

Ruan Xiaoqi is also a lover of love, and said: "It is best for the military advisor to arrange it like this." ”

"Cheng, then it's up to the brothers."

Ruan Xiaowu said: "The owner of the village, when will you go to Jinshan Temple?" ”

"The day after tomorrow is early in the morning."

"Why don't my brother and I cross the river tonight and go to Jinshan Temple to explore the terrain and see if they are making trouble."

Yue Fei said: "This is the best, but you have been rushing from Liangshan along the canal to Pukou for several days, I am afraid that your body will not be able to bear it." ”

Ruan Xiaowu patted his chest and said, "Brother Yue Fei, don't worry, it's no big deal-" Ruan Xiaowu said to Ruan Xiaoqi: "Brother, I don't think it's too early, let's go now, so let's go early and return early." ”

"Okay, just rely on the fifth brother."

When the Ruan brothers went, everyone also went to their respective tents to rest. Only Li Zhong dangled and refused to leave, Zhu Biao knew that he had something to say, so he said, "Brother Li Zhong stayed." ”

After everyone else retreated, Li Zhong said to Zhu Biao: "Village master, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, haven't you thought about it?" ”

In fact, Zhu Biao had thought of the opportunity Li Zhong said a long time ago, but he didn't want to do it, and at the same time he felt that he couldn't do it. So he said, "Brother, I know what you mean, but you must not do that." ”

"Why?" Li Zhong was born as a small stall vendor, and he liked to take advantage of it the most, but he didn't take advantage of such a good opportunity, he asked puzzledly: "Capturing Fang La, not to mention that you can solve the problem once and for all, at least you can make chaos among the thieves, and take it from chaos is where the cheapness lies." ”

Zhu Biao smiled slightly and said, "Have you watched "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", brother? ”

"I didn't ...... The younger brother has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and he has read very little articles and books. ”

Zhu Biao smiled: Even if you are Zhu Wugong Sun Sheng, I am sure you haven't read it. So he told the story of Liu Bei's meeting with Liu Zhang in Sichuan in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and Pang Tong's desire to kill Liu Zhang at the banquet, and then said to Li Zhong: "Brother, think about it, why didn't Liu Bei suddenly capture Liu Zhang at the banquet when Liu Bei entered Sichuan?" ”

Li Zhong shook his head blankly.

Zhu Biao stared at Li Zhong and said, "Brother, only those who win the hearts of the people can win the world." Tricksters are useful, effective, but limited. ”
