Chapter 149: Soldiers Attack Jeju

The next day, Shi Jin received the news that Gao Yu was reorganizing his troops and horses in Jeju, so he invited everyone to discuss.

Chen Da said with a smile: "Those officers and soldiers can't help no matter how they are rectified, and if they come again, they will send us some weapons." ”

The generals of Liangshan did not take the Great Song Forbidden Army in their eyes, and they all smiled.

Xiao Jiasui said: "Those forbidden troops are used to being scattered, Gao Yu just killed the rest of the Jiedu envoys, and he didn't want to let them go into battle desperately." If they are pressed, they will either be deserters or fall into the grass. If we are willing to recruit officers and soldiers, there will certainly be many people who will come to vote. However, those officers and soldiers are greedy for life and afraid of death, and recruiting them will only affect the combat strength of our army. ”

Shi Jin nodded and said: "The generals of Wuyong can recruit some, but those soldiers don't want them." The most important thing in this world is people, don't let them ruin my cottage military discipline. ”

Now there are Lin Chong, Yang Zhi, Lu Zhishen, Guan Sheng, Tang Bin, Hu Yanzhuo, Dang Shiying, Dang Shixiong, Dong Ping, Zhang Qing, Sun Li, Luan Tingyu and others in Liangshan, all of whom were born as imperial generals.

However, almost all the soldiers and horses in Liangshan were bankrupt farmers and fishermen, but some of the henchmen and soldiers brought by Guan Sheng and others when they joined the gang were very few.

Yesterday, Lin Chong chased Gao Yu for dozens of miles, and was finally shot by Shi Wengong and returned with a war horse in vain, and he refused to give up more and more, saying: "Gao Yu's traitor is in Jeju, we simply killed it to Jeju and cut off Gao Yu's dog head to deter corrupt officials in the world." ”

"Yes, go to Jeju."

"Kill them in one go, lest their ghosts linger."

……

Lin Chong's words were immediately echoed by many leaders.

Zhu Gui said: "Uncle Zhang of Jeju Zhizhou is also very tight at night. After he arrived, he found out many spies in the cottage, and Jeju was very heavily guarded on weekdays. With him here, if I want to attack Jeju, I can only attack it. If you can take advantage of this time to defeat Jeju. The cottage does not occupy Jeju, and it can also make Uncle Zhang lose his official position at night. ”

Zhang Shuye was a well-known upright official in the dynasty, so Zhu Gui never thought that Zhang Shuye would join the gang.

Liang Shan fought in many places, and also met some officials who were honest and honest and had the ability to govern, but without exception, all of them refused Liang Shan's solicitation.

These officials relied on Liangshan not to kill indiscriminately. None of them are willing to fall into the grass, even if Shi Jin is known as the king of benevolence and righteousness, but in the eyes of those who read. If the name is not right, it is not good, Liangshan is still just a gang of grass bandits.

Xiao Jiasui said: "This time you can take advantage of the situation to fight Jeju, but you still need to slow down to kill Gao Yu." Gao Yu is the emperor's favorite minister, if we kill Gao Yu. Then the emperor is afraid that he will send the western army to attack my Liangshan. Although the cottage is now strong. However, there are always two or three hundred thousand people in the western army, and I am afraid that we will not be able to catch it if we have to fight with the western army. ”

Everyone naturally knows that Xiao Jiasui's words are still polite, although the Liangshan soldiers and horses have won a lot of battles, but they have not fought real hard battles, and the Western Army that has been fighting with the Western Xia all the year round I am afraid that the combat power is much worse, not to mention that the number of the Western Army is much more than that of Liangshan soldiers and horses.

The Song Dynasty sent 100,000 western troops, even if it could not completely destroy Liangshan, it would definitely make Liangshan not one survive.

Shi Jin nodded and said, "Now is not the time to pull the flag and rebel." Lin Jiaotou endured it for another year, waiting for the Jiangnan rebellion. And we took it upon ourselves. At that time, no matter where Gao Yu escapes, I will definitely let you lead the army to kill him. Of course, we just don't specifically arrange soldiers and horses to ambush Gao Yu, if you want to kill him in the chaos, just do it. I, Liangshan, am not a person who is afraid of things. ”

Lin Chong is not a reckless person, not to mention that he has always been obedient to Shi Jin, and nodded immediately: "Since my brother has an arrangement, then I will endure it for a long time, and I won't chase him." ”

After discussing for a while, Shi Jin ordered everyone to prepare for the army to force Jeju.

The mobilization of Liangshan's soldiers and horses did not hide from Uncle Zhang's ears and eyes at night.

Uncle Zhang's night listening to the soldiers and horses of Liangshan came to Jeju, and hurriedly came to the post house where Gao Yu rested.

The soldiers in the military camp outside the city were rectifying military discipline under the scorching sun, but the drums were noisy in the post house, and the music inside could be heard from afar.

Uncle Zhang shook his head helplessly, entered the post house, and asked someone to report.

"Captain, please."

When Uncle Zhang followed a personal entourage of Gao Yu into the hall, Gao Yu sat alone and watched the dancers dance below, but there was still some unwiped rouge on his face.

Of course, Gao Yu does not want to pretend to be an elegant person who only appreciates singing and dancing, there are very few officials in the court who do not coerce prostitutes, but Uncle Zhang asks to see him at night, there must be something to discuss, and he is not too ridiculous.

Uncle Zhang saw the salute at night, and said: "The spies sent by the lower officials reported that the soldiers and horses of Liangshan left the camp, and I am afraid that they are coming to Jeju." ”

When Gao Yu heard this, he couldn't help but exclaim: "The soldiers and horses outside the city have not been put in order, if they are attacked by the Liangshan bandits, I am afraid they will be scattered." You hurry up and drive the people in the city out of the city, let the army outside the city come in and rectify for a few days, and then fight with the Liangshan bandits. ”

Jeju is a small state capital, and although there are military camps in the city, it cannot accommodate more than 100,000 soldiers and horses.

Gao Yu's 120,000 army, no more than a few thousand people were killed, except for a few who deserted, and the number of soldiers and horses who came back still exceeded 110,000.

There were more than 10,000 wounded soldiers, but Gao Yu ordered that all the seriously injured must be practiced, otherwise after the next battle, more than half of the wounded soldiers will inevitably be, of course, a large part of them are self-mutilating to avoid fighting.

Gao Yu was born in the market, and he is no stranger to the tricks used by those soldiers, so he naturally has to guard against this problem.

When Uncle Zhang heard this, he couldn't help but change color and said: "Forgive the officials for their inability to do anything, drive more than 100,000 people out of the city, and the matter will spread to the capital, I'm afraid the captain can't afford to bear it." ”

Gao Yu frowned and said, "If you don't drive the people out, can the city accommodate the army outside?" ”

Uncle Zhang shook his head and said, "It can accommodate up to 30,000 people." ”

If the army is left outside, I am afraid that it will be defeated by the soldiers and horses of Liangshan in the first battle. At that time, he will stay in Jeju, and there is no way that the Yangsan bandits will attack Jeju and arrest him.

Thinking of the possible outcome, Gao Yu shook his head and said, "Then move tens of thousands of people out and let the army come in and squeeze in." Under the guise of doing the right thing for the sky, the Liangshan thieves will not harm the people. At that time, the official will go to the Son of Heaven to distinguish it, and it will definitely not involve you. ”

Uncle Zhang was upright, otherwise he would not have offended Cai Jing, and was relegated to Jeju to be the governor of Liangshan, and immediately said when he heard this: "I don't dare to do such a thing that disturbs the people, and I can't do it." Taiwei also has to think twice, the court uses soldiers to protect the people, but Taiwei wants to disturb those many people, and even force them to thieves, I'm afraid it's not appropriate. ”

Gao Yu said unhappily: "How many officials have killed good people and risked their merits, this official just wants you to invite them out of the city to exterminate the thieves, and they don't have to worry about being harassed by the thieves in the future, what's wrong?" ”

But Liangshan won't harass ordinary people if he conquers the city!

A staff member beside Gao Yu said: "I have heard that there are many Yangsan spies in Jeju City, and now that the war is imminent, what does it matter if you invite them out of the city." ”

When Gao Yu heard this, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he clapped his hands and said: "Exactly, Liangshan fought a few cities before and it was Neiying who grabbed the city gate." This Jeju is close to Yangsan, and there must be a lot of fine work. As an accident may not happen, you have moved all the people out of the city. Of course, the court can't let them be displaced, they can go to the barracks outside the city to live, and I will leave a team of soldiers and horses to guard them. ”

Uncle Zhang said: "The people's belongings are at home, how can they be willing to go outside the city, and the army outside the city has entered the city, someone will inevitably take the opportunity to steal the people's property." ”

Gao Yu said impatiently: "If you can't do it, I will send soldiers and horses from outside the city to drive them out." The Yangsan Bandits have already come to Jeju and don't have that much time for you. ”

When Uncle Zhang heard this, he couldn't help frowning.

He is a state official, and he is a civil official, and he does not belong to the jurisdiction of Gao Yu, so he can completely force Gao Yu's general order.

However, Gao Yu's grade is higher than him, and the soldiers and horses outside the city only listen to his orders, and he can't stop Gao Yu from implementing this order.

He insisted on Gao Yu's general order, and he could only put the responsibility on Gao Yu when the court questioned him in the future.

But if he doesn't obey Gao Yu's orders, Gao Yu will let the soldiers and horses outside the city drive the people.

He could have predicted the scene at that time, those soldiers were cowardly to the soldiers and horses of Shangliangshan, but they were used to bullying the people.

Snatching property and molesting women, so there is a strife, which will inevitably shed blood, and if it is not done, it will lead to a great conflict.

Zhang Shuye only hesitated for a moment, then made a decision, and said, "Okay, I will persuade the people to leave the city as soon as possible, and ask the Taiwei to calm down." ”

Gao Yu nodded and said: "Okay, be tough when you should be tough, there are always some Liangshan in this city." Don't let the Liangshan soldiers and horses raid. (To be continued......)
