Chapter 59: Cutting the Weeds and Eradicating the Roots

Liangshan Juyi Hall

Song Jiang and Wu Yong sat on the top, and the two chairs on the left were empty.

These two chairs are those of the Handle Chao Gai and the Archmage Gongsun Sheng.

Now that Chao Gai doesn't know his whereabouts, Gongsun Sheng went back to his hometown to visit his old mother.

The other chiefs, large and small, sat on the left and right, and there were fewer people.

Song Jiang looked over one by one, and there were Dong Ping, Du Qian, and Song Wanbai Sheng on the left. On the right are Dai Zong, Li Kui, Zhang Shun, Li Li, Mu Chun, Tong Wei, Tong Meng, Hou Jian, Tao Zongwang, Pei Xuan, Meng Kang, Yan Shun, Zheng Tianshou, Shi Yong, Song Qing, Xiao Rang, and Jin Dajian.

There are only twenty-one people left!

Thinking of the lively scene before, Song Jiang burst into tears.

In the past, the "old leader" of Chao Gai's faction sat on the left, and the "new leader" of Song Jiang's faction sat on the right.

But now there are only seventeen people on the right, and it is a bit bustling.

As for the "old leader", even Chao Gai himself is gone, and his henchmen are only Bai Sheng left, alone.

As for Du Qian and Song Wan, they are all grass on the wall, they have never been from one faction, and no one regards them as their own.

They sit on the left, just because they can't sit on the right, that's all.

Dong Ping was also not polite, sitting first on the left hand side - this was originally Lin Chong's position, the first person under the four giants, with high martial arts, old qualifications, and good personality, no one was unconvinced.

Although Dong Ping is strong in martial arts, he is the first person in Liangshan today, and Song Jiang also relies on him, but after all, he came late, and everyone was a little dissatisfied sitting there.

There was a gloomy mist in the hall.

Song Jiang looked at Wu Yong and asked, "Brother Xian, can yesterday's losses be counted?" ”

Wu Yong nodded, his face was solemn, and he said with great sadness: "In the first battle yesterday, Brother Chao Gai, Liu Tang, Li Yun, Jiang Jing, Xue Yong, as well as Zhu Gui and Zhu Fu, a total of seven brothers failed to come back. The minions lost more than 2,500 people, and now there are less than 3,000 minions left in the cottage, and the warships have also lost 12...... What a loss! ”

Song Jiang cried with a sad face and spread his hands, "How is this good!" ”

Shi Yong stood up and said: "Brother, this matter is a little strange, I left the latest yesterday, and I saw that the ships of our army were all rowed away by the brothers, and none of them were robbed by the Zhu family's army, how could there be twelve missing?" There were at most 1,000 brothers who could not get on the boat and escaped, but how could there be as many as 2,500? ”

Wu Yong was very sure: "Forty-five when I went out to fight, thirty-three when I returned to the mountain, and there were twelve less, so there would be no mistake!" ”

"What's going on?" Many leaders were confused, "Could it be that they were caught up by the people of Zhujiazhuang?" ”

"How come, Zhujiazhuang doesn't have a water army at all!"

The big guy was talking about it, only Song Jiang's face was as heavy as water, which was very ugly, and Wu Yong also shook his head and sighed.

Mu Chun suddenly said loudly: "I understand, it must be these cowards who escaped and did not return to Liangshan!" ”

Everyone was stunned and scolded!

Song Jiang waved his hand, "Let them go!" The top priority is to rescue Brother Chao Gai and all the brothers who were trapped, let's discuss! ”

No one spoke.

Since he didn't come back, he was either killed or captured.

Who dares to go to the Zhujia army camp to save people?

Dai Zong stood up and said, "Brother! Since King Chao Tianwang has not come back now, I am afraid that there will be more evil and less auspicious. The cottage cannot be left without an owner for a day, please take the position of the owner of the village, lead us to defeat Zhujiazhuang, defeat Zhulong! ”

"Well said! We all only recognize our brothers, not others! Brother Hugh wants to push and only sit in this position, I think who dares to disagree? Li Kui shouted, his gaze swept over everyone's faces, and finally stopped at Bai Sheng.

Bai Sheng bowed his head and was silent.

Song Jiang had a straight face and reprimanded: "Tie Niu shut up!" On this righteous hall, how can you be allowed to talk nonsense! What is the difference between what you did and Lin Chong's fight against Wang Lun? ”

"I, Song Jiang, put righteousness first, loyal and patriotic, how can I care about the position of the owner of the village! When I first went up the mountain, Brother Chao Gai pushed me in every possible way to give up the position of the owner of the village, but I insisted on not accepting it, otherwise I would have been the owner of the village by now! ”

"And now, Brother Chao Gai's life and death are unknown, I am anxious, I can't sleep and eat, where do I have the heart to be the owner of this village! Don't mention that! ”

After Song Jiang finished saying his righteous and awe-inspiring words, everyone didn't dare to persuade him anymore, and they all praised him for his unparalleled benevolence and righteousness, which deserved to be timely rain and call for righteousness!

Bai Sheng stood up and said cautiously: "Brother Song Jiang, junior brother is willing to inquire about the news!" ”

"Brother Bai Sheng volunteered, and his courage is commendable!" Song Jiang first nodded in approval, and suddenly his tone changed: "It's just that I don't know something!" ”

"Brother, please speak!"

"When we attacked Zhujiazhuang, you, Lin Chong, and Ma Lin ambushed Zhulong and their gang, but as a result, you, as the ambush party, were defeated. Ma Lin was captured and surrendered, Lin Chong was killed, and you, obviously arrested, but why did Zhu Long let you go? ”

"Thisβ€”" Bai Sheng said,

"After you were let go, why didn't you return to your own team, flee without permission, and return to Liangshan?"

"Why do you dare to regard Liangshan's military discipline as nothing? Whose power are you fighting against? ”

"What did Zhu Long say to you? What's going on with you? ”

"Why did Zhu Long let Lin Chong leave, what is the conspiracy between you?"

"What did you do after you became Liangshan?"

Song Jiang's voice was full of expression, and when he asked in one breath, Bai Sheng was stunned and speechless.

"Say, how did you collude with Zhu Long? Whose assignment is it? Dai Zong stepped forward and shouted!

Li Kui lifted Bai Sheng with one hand, spat on his face, and scolded angrily: "Okay, you are a day rat, you are actually a spy who eats inside and out, grandpa, I will chop you into meat sauce today!" ”

"Iron Bull is rude!" Wu Yong hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, where could he stop Li Kui, so he turned to Song Jiang and pleaded: "Brother, although Bai Sheng is mediocre in martial arts and has no great skills, he is by no means a person who betrays his brother. Ask my brother to allow him to plead. ”

"Then according to what the military advisor said, Tie Niu, you quickly put down Bai Sheng and listen to how he defends."

Song Jiang attacked Zhujiazhuang, lost one after another, and fell into Zhu Long's calculations step by step, and he had long suspected that there was a spy in his heart, but Bai Sheng had Chao Gai protection and could not be interrogated. Chao Gai was not here today, so he couldn't wait to interrogate him.

Li Kui threw Bai Sheng on the ground, Bai Sheng got up, wiped his face, snorted, and sneered: "If you want to add to the crime, there is no excuse!" Brother Song Jiang didn't ask for so many days, but he wants to try the case today, isn't it just to cut the grass and eradicate the roots? ”

"So many of you have returned, but the commanders of the three armies have not returned! But Liu Tang didn't come back! Hey - are you a fool of the world? ”

"Song Jiang, I know that you killed Brother Chao Gai and wanted to seize the position of the owner of the village! If you want to kill, do it quickly, on the Huangquan Road, Lao Tzu may be able to catch up with Brother Chao Gai! And you, Song Jiang, killed your brother and seized the throne, which is shameful for the people of the rivers and lakes! ”

After Bai Sheng finished speaking, he held his head high and closed his eyes.

"Y-you're spewing blood, talking nonsense!" Song Jiang trembled with anger.

Li Li stepped forward and kicked Bai Sheng, and said angrily: "You dare to slander my brother, I will kill you!" ”

The others rushed up and came to beat Bai Sheng.

"Stop!" There was a loud cheer outside the door.

Everyone looked up and saw that it was Chao Gai and Liu Tang standing at the door.
