"Uncle Yang, my Liangshan heroes are going to kill all these corrupt officials and corrupt officials, do the right thing for heaven, and ask for the people's lives, if there are any difficulties in the future, even if they come to us Liangshan, we will take care of the affairs of the government, if there are any wicked people who do evil, we Liangshan will not show mercy. Please also ask the elderly and villagers to supervise, if there is a person from Liangshan who does evil, I will not spare him. Chao Gai held Uncle Yang's hand and said.

"Thank you, King Chao."

"You are a living bodhisattva sent by heaven!"

…………

For a while, there was a strong thanksgiving, Chao Gai ordered people to distribute the relief money and food to the villagers in the village, and the villagers were moved for a while.

This scene is not only in Dongxi Village, but also in the villages and towns around Liangshan, for a time the name of Liangshan heroes spread throughout the Great Song Dynasty, that is, the Liao Kingdom in the north, the Jin Kingdom, and the Western Xia Dynasty are also praised by people, and the King of Tota Chao Gai is a special book by the people, and many people are at home for the immortal ranking as a god to worship, bless Chao Gai with a long life and wealth.

When the villages around Liangshan were relieved and the houses that had collapsed by the heavy snow were rebuilt, spring began, and more than 10,000 people were accommodated in Liangshan in winter.

As soon as the spring arrives, this Chao Gai has become the busiest one in Liangshan, the villagers in Houshan open up the wasteland and farm, the ancient farmers farm the land to see God's face to eat, this year's weather is good, there is no disaster to collect a little more grain, if you catch up with the locust plague, drought, flood, then a grain can not be harvested.

During the reign of Song Renzong, Fan Zhongyan said in the recital "Answering the Edict of Chen Shishi": "The minister knows that in Suzhou, the tax collectors of the field are 34,000 hectares, and the benefits of Zhongni are two to three stones per mu. Zhu Xi said in the "Statement of Famine Relief": The six counties of Shaoxing Prefecture on East Zhejiang Road during Chunxi "produced two stones of rice per mu". Two stones is 100 kilograms, which is still a good place and a good harvest.

Chao Gai organized the villagers to carry out intensive farming, deep ploughing the land, and explained the key points of the steps of applying farm fertilizer, weeding, irrigation, etc., and when it came to the autumn harvest, the yield per mu could reach the yield of four to five stones.

Out of farming, another income in Liangshan is fishery, the fishery resources in the 800 miles of water are very rich, fish, shrimp, crabs, chickens, ducks and geese and other poultry are all available, Chao Gai has built a chicken farm, duck farm, goose farm, pig farm, fish pond and other sideline farms, organize the villagers, especially the women and children and the elderly who are idle at home, Liangshan has a lively scene.

A large number of people joined Liangshan, not only the agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry and sideline fishing of Liangshan have developed, but also the Liangshan military horses have also expanded, Chao Gai in order to maintain the combat effectiveness of the regular army, in addition, the mountain leaders are too few and manpower is not enough to maintain the establishment of a horse military camp and two infantry military camps, as for the four battalions of the garrison army, it has been expanded to 500 people per battalion.

After Chao Gai came back from the field, he returned to his office study, and just sat down, Zhu Gui, who was in charge of finding out the news of the Shuibo Hotel, walked in, Zhu Gui would go up the mountain every seven days to report to Chao Gai about the loud big and small things on the rivers and lakes, which was also ordered by Chao Gai, after all, intelligence news is always the top priority, even in this Shuibo Liangshan should also be clear about the dynamics of the rivers and lakes.

Chao Gai saw Zhu Gui come in, hurriedly asked him to sit down, and ordered someone to get a bowl of tea, and then asked, "Brother Zhu Gui, what are the big things in the rivers and lakes these days?"

Zhu Gui thanked Chao Gai, picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, heard Chao Gai's question, and then said: "But there is a big event, recently there is a great hero on the rivers and lakes called the flower monk Lu Zhishen, similar to our mountain Master Deng, the arm has the strength of a thousand catties, bold and righteous, the urgency of the Zhou people, a few days ago there was a big trouble in Wutai Mountain, and then came to a vegetable garden in Tokyo Daxiangguo Temple to do the main thing, upside down the weeping willows, for the world to marvel, famous, This flower monk Lu Zhishen and Lin Chong, the head of the leopard who marched into the 800,000 forbidden army in Tokyo, became brothers of the opposite sex. ”

Chao Gai nodded when he heard this, the plot of the Water Margin finally began, Lin Chong was a hero, since he had crossed over, he had to save the lives of Lin Chong's family, so as not to regret it.

"I have also heard of this Lu Zhishen, it was originally a small species in Shaanxi Province under the public account, because he killed the butcher town of Guanxi with three punches, caused a lawsuit, and went to Wutai Mountain to become a monk, called the flower monk Lu Zhishen." Chao Gai said.

After listening to this, Zhu Gui secretly admired Chao Gai, the heroes and heroes of the world are all pretending to be in the heart of Brother Chao Gai, no wonder he can make such a great reputation in the rivers and lakes, this Liangshan can have so many heroes and heroes join the gang, and know that today's prosperity is prosperous.

Chao Gai asked about the intelligence work again, Zhu Gui didn't dare to slack off and answered one by one, the two chatted for a while, Zhu Gui got up and said goodbye, at present, the entire intelligence work in Liangshan is in his hands alone, and he is also busy with his feet not touching the ground, and he does not dare to delay too much time.

After Zhu Gui left, Chao Gai counted the days, Lu Zhishen arrived at Daxiangguo Temple in March, today is the end of March, almost April, Lin Chong was assigned to Cangzhou is a matter of August, from Liangshan to Tokyo slow walk also has about a month, in July got up first to the wild boar forest to wait for Lin Chong, and then went to Tokyo to save the lives of Lin Chong's family, which is also a matter of the Water Margin.

Now there are more than three months from July, Chao Gai is not in a hurry, big and small things on Liangshan also need to be explained, Chao Gai read the book again, although it is already spring, but the weather is still very cold, so he put on a big hat and went out for a walk.

Not long after Chao Gai came out, he saw Zhu Gui, who had just left, coming back again, and hurriedly trotted all the way as if there was something important, Zhu Gui saw Chao Gai from afar and hurriedly ran over.

"Brother Zhu Gui, why did you come back again, did something happen?" Chao Gai asked without waiting for Zhu Gui to speak.

Zhu Gui stabilized his mind, took a breath, and then said: "Brother, it's not good, just now I Liangshan Xizuo sent back the news that my brother made a big fuss in Jingzhou Mansion and killed Fan Shiqi, the prefect of Jingzhou, the emperor Lao'er was furious and ordered to send troops to recruit and suppress, but because it was not suitable for war in winter, the matter was put down, this time as soon as the spring opened, the court sent the general Dong Ping to lead the horse army with two guns, and the infantry army of 3,000 to conquer my Liangshan, and it will arrive soon, and the younger brother hurriedly went up the mountain to inform the elder brother."

Chao Gai nodded after hearing this, and then said, "Without further ado, beat the drums and gather the generals."

"Yes." Zhu Gui responded with a fist.

After a while, there were bursts of drums in front of the Juyi Hall, which spread throughout Liangshan, and the leaders on the mountain knew that there was something to do on the mountain when they heard it, so they immediately put down what they were doing and hurriedly came to the Juyi Hall.

Chao Gai sat on the top, watching that everyone had come, and then Chao Gai said: "The imperial court soldiers sent me Liangshan, and the specific things will be introduced to you by Brother Zhu Gui."

Zhu Gui took the order, stood up and gestured to the brothers in the hall, and then told the story of the matter.

As soon as Zhu Gui finished speaking, it was like a frying pan in the Juyi Hall, and Shi Bao was the first to ask for battle: "Brother, I, Shibao please fight, the Ma army is just training, let the court see if it is their cavalry is brave or our horse army in Liangshan is powerful."

"Brother, you have to take me with you this time, I'm going crazy on this mountain, you have to let me kill him well." Mi Sheng said at the top of his throat, his big head shaking when he spoke.

Looking at the battle spirit of everyone in the hall, Chao Gai smiled with satisfaction, then pressed his hand down, and said, "Brothers, don't be impatient, let's ask the military advisor to talk about it first."

"Yes." Wu Yong stood up and said when he saw Chao Gaiti mentioning him: "That Dong Ping Xiaosheng has also heard that he is good at using double guns, and he has the courage of ten thousand people, and he is known as a double gun general." In the early years of the Hebei border army, the Liao soldiers were killed on their backs, and every time they were in battle, they fled in embarrassment just by listening to their names, and later because of the evil boss was transferred back to Tokyo to be idle at home, and I didn't think that the imperial court would use this person. ”
