On the one hand, Zhu Biao commanded Lu Zhishen and Wu Song to lead the soldiers and horses of Liangshan to suppress everywhere, and on the other hand, he instructed Du Yi and Bian Xiang to set up a bureau to severely punish the unscrupulous elements who endangered social order, and offered rewards for arrest and arrest, and never mercy. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info and Zhu Biao also asked Du Bian Xiang to make a lot of station cages, put some ill-intentioned people in the station cages, put them in the lively market, did not give food or drink, and died slowly and painfully under the scorching sun. This was the means used by Zhu Biaoxue's later generation, Zeng Guofan, to suppress the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

In Pukou County, Du Bai said to Zhu Biao: "The owner of the village, such a suppression, although the public security has improved, but at this time the people in the city are in turmoil, once the Fangla army and horses come to the city, I am afraid that there will be chaos." ”

Zhu Biao was not worried: "What Brother Du is worried about is exactly what I am worried about, I have a way to achieve long-term peace and stability, and I am about to discuss with my eldest brother." ”

"What's the solution?"

"The old way, divide the fields and land," Zhu Biao said: "Now that the officials and rich families in Pukou have all fled, it just so happens that we have divided their fields and houses." ”

Du Yan thought for a while and asked: "This is a way to completely eliminate the hidden danger of civil strife, but we are here, and the fields are divided, once the court is investigated, then let's explain?" ”

Zhu Biao smiled and said, "Confess? If you don't confess, when the court asked, it said that the common people were going to rebel regardless of the land, and we did this to keep his Great Song Dynasty and explain to him! ”

When Du Yan heard this, he also smiled and said, "There is another matter in the future, and the owner of the village should be asked to take precautions in advance." ”

Zhu Biao asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Du Yan said: "When our army first arrived here, and the Fang La army was in Runzhou, not far away, I thought that the thief army was very likely to attack our army, so we had to prepare early." ”

Zhu Biao asked: "What the eldest brother said is reasonable, so according to the eldest brother's opinion, how should our army prepare?" ”

Du Yan said: "According to the following, the way to guard against the Fang La army is nothing more than two moves, the first move, will be calculated, since the Fang La army is coming, we will be ready for battle, and when they come, they will kill them personally and turn over on their backs, and our Liangshan army will be frightened when it comes to mention; The second move is to divide our army into two parts, one is stationed in the city, and the other is camped outside the city. ”

Zhu Biao listened to Du Biao's words and said, "Big brother, are your two methods different?" ”

Du Yan said: "The owner of the village is actually different. The strict battle that I said below made Fang Lajun think that we were defenseless, we could set up an ambush for them, and when they came, they would rush out in all directions and kill Fang Lajun by surprise. The second move is actually to scare Fang Lajun, so that they know that our army has already taken precautions and will not dare to act rashly. ”

Zhu Biao smiled and asked, "Big brother, this is giving me a multiple-choice question." ”

Du Bai hurriedly said: "Don't misunderstand the owner of the village, there is no intention to study the owner of the village, but I think that although I am sure that I will win the first battle, but I don't know when Fang La will come, our army can not always be in strict formation, if you wait for a long time, the army will be slack, once the enemy really comes to attack, I am afraid it will be self-defeating." ”

After Du Yi saw that Zhu Biao listened to his words, he continued: "If our army builds a defense and garrisons troops outside the city, the imperial court will definitely come to investigate, why did our army go to the river to rescue Jinling, although this move is safe, it can easily make people with ill intentions criticize our army." ”

Zhu Biao listened to Du Biao's words and said: "What the eldest brother said is exact, this is really a dilemma, let me think about it-" After a long time, Zhu Biao said: "Or I will set up a plan to lure the Fang La army to attack, if I can plan it, win for a while, so that the Fang La army will not dare to underestimate our army, and the court will have nothing to say." ”

"Planning? What kind of plan can be devised to lure Fang La's army to attack? Du Yan thought for a while: "If it is not from tomorrow, the owner of the village will only rest in the county government every day, and will not show up. ”

"Faking illness?" Zhu Biao thought for a while and said: "This strategy is not bad, even if Fang La does not come to attack our army, our army will also have an explanation to the imperial court." Okay, then according to the big brother's plan, then I will only drink and sleep in this yamen from tomorrow. It's just that the eldest brother has to dispatch military horses to deploy to defend against the attack of the Fang La army, and he has to preside over the work of dividing the fields and land, so it will be hard for you. ”

Du Yi said: "Thank you for your concern, only the great cause of Liangshan that can benefit me, dare not bow and die without bowing." ”

Zhu Biao gently patted Du Yan's back and said meaningfully: "If my Liangshan brothers can really make a great cause to change the world that day, the brothers will not forget the great deeds of the eldest brother." ”

Du Yan is a martial artist at any time, but he is also an extremely shrewd person, how can he not hear the meaning of Zhu Biao's words, but he knows that it is best for him not to say anything now, just silently arched his hand, and said: "Then the master of the village, you rest first, and then go to work first." ”

Zhu Biao is not stupid, he also knows that Du Yi knows the meaning of his words, but he doesn't continue to speak, and bows his head slightly: "Then there will be a lot of trouble for big brother in the days from now on." ”

Both of them knew the meaning of each other's words, but neither of them said anything, they were both playing dumb riddles.

Dividing line ********

When the news of Zhu Biao's illness spread from Pukou County to the Runzhou Mansion, and to the ears of Fang La and his courtiers, Lu Shisang was the first to jump up and shouted excitedly: "Your Majesty, now is a great opportunity, let's take this opportunity to enter Pukou, take Zhu Biao's house, and let those good dogs in Liangshan see, even if they surrender to the imperial court, and the imperial court will be their backer, they can only be our ghosts under the knife!" Lu Shisang deliberately called the "Liangshan good man" "Liangshan good dog" here, and his words were full of contempt and contempt.

As soon as Fang La heard Lu Shinang's words, he suddenly sat up from his dragon chair - no matter where he went, someone helped him stand up on the dragon chair - and cheered: "Brother Lu hero! Okay, tonight, you and your twelve gods of Jiangnan will lead the people and horses of the department to kill in Pukou and capture Zhu Biao alive! I personally lead the army to support you! If you can hold Wang Lun's house, brother, I will give you the first merit in capturing Jinling! ”

"Wechen obeys!" Lu Shisang confidently arched his hands and turned around to dispatch troops.

"Wait!" Bao Daoyi shouted to Lu Shisang with a worried face, and said to the other party: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks this is a trick by Liangshan Caokou to lure me into the army. ”

Fang La was stunned when he heard Bao Daoyi's words, and said, "Trickery? What trickery? Please sir, please make it clear? ”
