Chapter 80 Formulate a plan and often seal the private expedition to Liangshan
To say that there is no Qing official in this place, it is naturally impossible.
It's just that when the darkness rises, the light fades.
Some people can't bear it and join it, while others have to endure and wait for the opportunity.
Bao Zheng and Cao Bin want to do big things, so they naturally have to screen these people.
Whether it is dealing with the Changfeng Party or dealing with the aftermath, these people are needed to help.
Don't look at Bao Zheng as a minister, and he has the right to cut first and then play, but on other people's territory, he can't do whatever he wants.
Moreover, Chang Feng was the pacification envoy of Shandong, and he controlled the military of a province, so if he wanted to deal with him, he had to consider the issue of mutiny.
With a little "pro-soldier" brought by Cao Bin and Bao Zheng, it is simply a drop in the bucket.
Their only advantage is that they are justified.
Bao Zheng, as a messenger, to some extent, can even represent the Son of Heaven......
Cao Bin, Bao Zheng, and Gongsun discussed for most of the night, and after the plan was formulated, it was already dawn.
"Now that the plan has been decided, then Cao will leave first."
"I still have hundreds of thousands of people there, I can stabilize them for the time being, and I hope that Lord Bao can prepare quickly."
Seeing that Cao Bin was leaving, Bao Zheng asked:
"How does Zhongjingbo plan to explain to the people the proclamation of selecting young and strong people among the victims and levying the Liangshan bandits?"
"If you easily repent, I am afraid that it will shake the credibility of the government."
Cao Bin waved his hand absently and said:
"It's a simple matter, just say that I haven't found someone as black-faced as Lord Bao."
"So this battle will be lost, and it is only natural that the proclamation should be withdrawn......"
When Bao Zheng heard this, his head was suddenly full of black lines.
Seeing Cao Bin leaving quickly, Gongsun Ce shook his head and said with a smile:
"Uncle Zhongjing is not a person who does not learn and does not know how to do it, and he is quite wise and foolish, but his personality is a little out of the woods."
Zhan Zhao was still indignant about Cao Bin's teasing of Bao Zheng.
Hearing this, he immediately said: "Uncle Cao is too rude, and he is playful and lustful, so he is not a serious person after all." ”
Bao Zheng waved his hand and said, "These are all subsections." ”
"He has the resources of a capable minister and is quite benevolent, but good and evil are all in one thought."
"It's a pity that he is the son-in-law of Master Pang, and under the threat of the general trend, his position is difficult to determine......"
Gongsun Ce asked, "My lord, what are we going to do next?" ”
Bao Zheng said: "This mansion will go to see Luo Tong first, and I hope he can obey the orders of this mansion." ”
When Cao Bin returned to the envoy with the sedan chair, it was already dawn.
While ordering people to cancel the notice, he took advantage of the rising sun, took a hot bath, and had fun with Chang Qing a few times before falling asleep.
When I woke up again, it was dusk.
"Uncle, my father-in-law came to you in the morning, and when he saw that you were sleeping sweetly, he left by himself."
Chang Qinglian said while serving Cao Bin to dress.
"What's the matter with him?"
Cao Bin asked casually.
Chang Qing said pitifully: "My father-in-law wants to discuss with my uncle about the extermination of Liangshan......"
Cao Bin waved his hand and said: "Let's talk about the matter of Liangshan later, let's not suppress it first!" ”
He didn't really want to exterminate Liangshan in the first place, and since the goal was achieved, there was no need to discuss.
And the matter of suppressing thieves is not within his scope of responsibility, and he is not so concerned.
Besides, even if you want to exterminate Liangshan, now is not the best time.
Now that there are people everywhere, if you don't get it right, they will coerce the victims, wouldn't they want to make a spark to start a prairie fire?
Chang Qing was stunned for a moment: "My father-in-law said that I don't have to worry about my uncle, he will personally lead the army to exterminate it, and my uncle just waits for the good news." ”
“......”
After hearing this, Cao Bin was directly speechless.
He didn't expect that Chang Feng really fell in love with this guy, isn't this self-inflicted trouble?
Although the current Liangshan has not yet reached its heyday, it has also completed a "reunion".
There are more than 40 chiefs with names and surnames.
I have to say that Song Jiang is still quite talented.
After he ran to Liangshan early, he tried his best to strengthen his strength.
When you have enough food, you have no scruples.
While constantly recruiting young people, it also spreads the reputation of Liangshan for Tianxingdao.
Today's Liangshan is not only strong and strong, but also has a great reputation.
It has become a banner for the people in the rivers and lakes.
attracted a lot of "heroes" to defect.
At this time, attacking Liangshan, in fact, Cao Bin couldn't say whether it was good or bad.
The advantage is naturally that it can nip Liangshan in the bud.
The disadvantage is that you can't fail, once the permanent seal fails, Shandong will fall into an erosive situation.
Seeing Cao Bin frowning and contemplating, Chang Qing thought that he was worried about Chang Feng, and hurriedly persuaded:
"Uncle, don't worry, my father-in-law has brought more than 30,000 soldiers, and he will definitely win."
Cao Bin was speechless, am I worried about Chang Feng's life and death?
It doesn't matter if he's dead!
But if he took away more than 30,000 people, wouldn't this Jeju city be guarded?
And it will also have an impact on himself and Bao Zheng's plans.
So, he hurriedly called Shi Qian to ask for details.
Shi Qian screamed:
"Uncle, there are still 3,000 soldiers defending Jeju City now."
"But the mood of the victims is very stable, and it should be enough for them to guard a state town."
Hearing this, Cao Bin's brows furrowed even tighter.
The box soldiers are good soldiers, but in fact, they are miscellaneous laborers, craftsmen, etc., and they have no combat effectiveness at all.
Cao Bin hurriedly asked, "Where is Changfeng now?"
Shi Qian pinched his fingers and calculated:
"The vanguard must have arrived in Chahezhuang, now that the amount of water has decreased, and there is mud all around, it is the only way from Jeju to Yangsan."
Cai Hezhuang is near the Guangji River wharf, which was originally a distribution center for water transportation, and Cao Bin returned to Bianliang to board the ship there.
Cao Bin said: "Can you still catch up?" ”
In the end, he still planned to catch up with Chang Feng and persuade him to stop the army.
In his opinion, it is a stupid way to run into a pool of water and fight with others on other people's turf.
It doesn't matter if Chang is sealed, it saves his calculations.
But if the soldiers are lost, it will be a big trouble, and Liangshan will not take the opportunity to come out and make trouble?
After all, Jeju City has hoarded more than a million dollars and grain......
