"Thank you, Brother Chao Gai." Ma Yuan got up and thanked him. To be honest, Chao Gai's approach really surprised him, and he was also moved by this, and he was surprised that Chao Gai did not disrupt more than 3,000 of them, but still let himself and several of his brothers take it, such a big trust, which really moved Ma Yuan.

But moved to be moved, Ma Yuan still will not waver, at the moment in the Juyi Hall, after everyone spoke again, Chao Gai ordered a large banquet to wash the dust for Ma Yuan's six people.

After everyone finished eating and drinking, Chao Gai arranged for someone to send Ma Yuan and a few people back, and the other leaders of Liangshan also went back to rest, Chao Gai left Wu Yong and Gongsun Sheng alone.

Seeing that everyone was gone, and when there were only three of them left in the Juyi Hall, Wu Yong looked around, and then whispered to Chao Gai: "Brother, do you have any thoughts about Ma Yuan?" ”

"Not bad." Chao Gai nodded, and then told Wu Yong and Gongsun Sheng about his guess.

After listening to Chao Gai's analysis, the two of them also agreed, but there is no evidence to prove that if this misunderstands them, but let the heroes of the world think of Liangshan, who else will defect to Liangshan at that time.

The three of them discussed for a long time and did not come up with a result, so Chao Gai asked Wu Yong and Gongsun Sheng to go back to rest, and after the two left, Chao Gai asked Yan Qing, the prodigal son of the main general of the Wolf Tooth Battalion, to come over.

After a while, Yan Qing walked in, and immediately hugged Chao Gai's heavy fist, and said, "Brother, what are your orders?" "After such a long period of wolf tooth training, and now he is the chief general of the wolf tooth battalion, Yan Qing is becoming more and more like a special soldier, capable and decisive.

"That's the case, I'm not at ease with Ma Yuan and his group, you send someone to keep an eye on them twenty-four hours a day, and report it to me immediately if you are free, remember to keep it secret, no one is allowed to know about this matter." Chao Gai commanded in a low voice.

"Yes." Yan Qing didn't ask why, just answered, and went down, for Yan Qing, Chao Gai was still very relieved, this person was loyal to him, flexible and decisive, and he was the best candidate for personal guards, intelligence, and special operations commanders.

Time passed day by day, at the end of summer, the weather had to be a little cooler, the preparations of the imperial court had been completed, the materials, grain and grass had been mobilized from all over the country, Murong Yanda served as the general of the thief, Song Jiangren joined the army, and unified the mobilization of four roads to attack Liangshan Shuibo.

After the military order was issued, all the military horses began to be mobilized frequently, and they gathered in the direction of Liangshan, of course, such a big move of the imperial court could not hide from Liangshan's meticulous work, and after Chao Gai learned the news, he immediately ordered people to beat drums and gather generals in front of the Juyi Hall.

After a while, all the leaders of Liangshan arrived at the Juyi Hall, Chao Gai saw that all the people were coming, and then he said: "Brothers, the imperial court has begun to move, according to the news from our brothers under the mountain, the four-way army of the imperial court has begun to assemble, and it will soon send troops to attack my Shuibo Liangshan, as for the specific situation, let Brother Zhu Gui tell me." ”

Zhu Gui, who was sitting below, heard Chao Gai call himself, stood up at the moment, hugged his fist towards Chao Gai, and then hugged his fist towards everyone in the Juyi Hall, and said at the moment: "Brother Chao Gai, all brothers, the news that the fine work under Liangshan has come back, the army of the imperial court has begun to assemble in my Liangshan, the momentum is violent, the comers are not good, the closest to us is the Sanzhuang coalition army in Dulonggang, Qingzhou has also begun to send troops, but Han Cunbao of Dongping Mansion has not yet sent troops. ”

After Zhu Gui finished introducing, he sat back again, Chao Gai nodded, and then said: "Brothers, let's discuss it, in the face of the four-way army of the imperial court, what is the best way to retreat from the enemy." ”

As soon as Chao Gai's words fell, Mi Sheng stood up, his eyes widened, and he grinned, and said, "Brother, what else is there to discuss?" If you want me to say, it's just to kill a good one, come one and I will kill one, and two and I will kill a pair. ”

"What are you talking nonsense, get down, don't make noise again." Chao Gai glared at Mi Sheng, and then scolded, Mi Sheng saw Chao Gai angry, and he didn't dare to speak anymore at the moment, he didn't know what he muttered, and returned to his seat with his head down.

With Mi Sheng's episode, there was no longer so much tension in the Juyi Hall, and at that moment Wu Yong stood up, shook the feather fan lightly and said: "Brother, don't worry, brothers, although Song Jiang is running around and gathering the four-way army to besiege my Liangshan Shuibo, but they have their own thoughts, and their faces and hearts do not match, as if they are open palms, not so much waiting for them to clench into fists before making a move, it is better to decisively attack each one." ”

After Wu Yong finished speaking, Chao Gai nodded in agreement, and immediately said: "It's better to cut off one of his fingers than to hurt his ten fingers." ”

Listening to Chao Gai's summary of this sentence, Wu Yong's eyes lit up, although it was simple and popular, but the military knowledge contained in it was extremely profound, Wu used a separate chant Chao Gai said this sentence, for Chao Gai's more and more admiration, always able to inadvertently say simple and popular but rich in profound truth.

"Brother is talking about taking Zhujiazhuang on Dulonggang to open the knife?" Gongsun Sheng next to him also reacted and asked at the moment.

Chao Gai nodded and said: "Yes, the Hujiazhuang on Dulonggang, Zhujiazhuang and Lijiazhuang are the weakest among the four military horses, and as far as I know, Hujiazhuang and Lijiazhuang have long been dissatisfied with the arrogant and domineering Zhujiazhuang, but they have to obey because of the thieves in Zhujiazhuang, which shows that they are not solid from the inside, we can just suppress Zhujiazhuang, win over Hujiazhuang and Lijiazhuang, so as to break this way, and then concentrate the superior forces and annihilate the other people." ”

"Wonderful!" Wu Yong said: "Once this strategy is effective, the four-way army of the imperial court can make them defeat and return home with a snap of their fingers, and my brother is clever." ”

"Hahaha, when did the military advisor learn to pat on the back?" Chao Gai laughed, and couldn't help but joke, and everyone in the Juyi Hall also burst into laughter when they heard Chao Gai's words.

Wu Yong also smiled bitterly, and when everyone had laughed enough, Chao Gai pressed his hand and said: "Since it has been decided, then without further ado, let's start assigning tasks now, although it is said that Zhujiazhuang will be the first to operate." However, the safety of the other three roads and Liangshan could not be left alone, so all the four battalions of the garrison stayed on the mountain and took strict precautions, and Gongsun Sheng and Lin Jiaotou were responsible. ”

"Yes." The two of them stood up and answered.
