For people from the capital, Zhou Tong felt anxious not because of how powerful this person was in marching and fighting, but because this person had a lot of intrigues and tricks. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info In the capital, Zhou Tong has been taught, and he is a very important person by Cai Jing's side, and many strategies come from him. Now that I have come to Suzhou, I will definitely bring some conspiracy and bad moves. Zhou Tong also gave an order to secretly kill this person if he had the opportunity. It's a pity that since he received the news and entered the barracks, that person has never come out.

The situation is the same as Zhou Dong guessed, the enemy army did not have any movement, and they were still camped there, standing still. This is a bad thing for Zeng Huai, and he doesn't know what to do. Zhou Tong also had the same confusion, and Pang He suggested telling Wu Yong about the situation, so that Wu could analyze and analyze how to deal with the matter. Zhou Tong thought so, at present, it is true that only Wu Yong knows the most strategy, so the master and apprentice went to find Wu Yong.

Wu Yong was sitting and playing against Chao Gai at this time, and soon, Chao Gai lost. Wu Yong said with a smile: "Brother Chao, you lost again!"

Chao Gai said helplessly: "As soon as Song Jiang leaves, you will pull me to play chess with you, now in the situation of Suzhou City, how can I have the heart to accompany you to play chess?"

Wu Yong said with a smile: "This life is like chess, the world is like chess, if you don't play chess, how can you know life, how do you know the world." ”

Pang He heard the news after Song Jiang left, and asked, "Has Brother Song returned to Shandong?"

Wu Yong replied: "Yes, he is the priest, and if he has something, he will naturally go back, and this time, I found that there is one less person to play chess with me." ”

"I see you, you've made a new love, and you're about to forget about my brother. You didn't ask me to play chess with you before. Chao Gai said: "Senior Zhou, you must have something to do when you come here this time, right?"

Zhou Tong said: "Exactly, I have something to discuss." ”

Chao Gai invited Zhou Tong and Pang He to sit down: "Please sit down!"

Zhou Tong and Pang He found a seat and sat down, Zhou Dong said: "I received the situation, a person came from the capital, this person is Cai Jing's right-hand man, you may not know him very well." This person used to have some reputation in the rivers and lakes, but it was not very good, and he was called a Buddha-faced ghost. ”

"Buddha-faced ghost?" Wu Yong muttered, "Could it be the Buddha-faced ghost Du Zhu?"

"Yes!" Zhou Dong said: "This person is insidious and vicious, good at intrigue and trickery, and does not hide from the two, I have suffered his losses in the capital." ”

Wu frowned deeply and said: "Although I have never dealt with him, it has long been rumored in the rivers and lakes that this person has a knife hidden in his smile and his methods are vicious. Now it seems that the situation we are facing is also very tricky. ”

"Yes!" Zhou Tong said: "So, I discussed with you to see if there are any good countermeasures?"

Wu Yong shook his head and said: "With the current situation, we can't make any moves at all, if we go to attack the enemy camp again, with this person in charge, I'm afraid we won't gain more than we lose." If it is waiting, waiting for him to make a move, we are worried that it will be difficult to prevent it. ”

"It's a dilemma!" Zhou Tong said: "We have to be like a way to fight for the initiative, otherwise..."

Wu pinched his fingers and calculated: "It should be almost time now, is there no news from the capital?"

"No!" Zhou Tong replied affirmatively.

"It's the first day of Du Zhu's arrival?" Wu Yong asked again.

Zhou Tong replied, "Wait for three days!"

Wu Yong analyzed: "Du Zhu came this time, maybe the imperial court received some news, so he went to the barracks. But the people we sent out haven't come back yet, which is a bit strange, and it stands to reason that there should be more than enough time. ”

Chao Gai looked at the two of them at a loss, and said, "In this way, senior, we might as well design and lure him out." ”

Wu Yong blocked the fan: "No, Du Zhu, this person will not be easily fooled, if you want him to fall for the scheme, at present, I am afraid it will not be possible." ”

"That's—" Chao Gai didn't know what to say.

At this time, before going out, Zhou Tong told a doorman to come over and knocked on the door: "Is Zhou Tong here?"

Zhou Tong responded: "I'm here, what's the matter?"

The doorman said, "Lord Zeng received the news, let you rush over immediately!"

"Okay!" Zhou Tong said: "You go back and tell Master Zeng, I'll come!"

After speaking, Zhou Tong asked Chao Gai and Wu Yong to go over together to see what kind of news Lord Zeng had received.

Zeng Huai saw Zhou Dong's master and apprentice, Chao Gai, and Wu Yong coming over, and hurriedly said: "I received this letter, you can take a look first!"

Saying that, Zeng Huai handed the letter to Zhou Tong, and after Zhou Tong read the letter, he handed the letter to Chao Gai and Wu Yong, and said, "Are you worried that this letter is fraudulent?"

Zeng Huai nodded: "Exactly, the handwriting of this letter is indeed Zhang Lao's handwriting, but I think it is impossible for me to go out of the city to attend the meeting." I sent men to the city gate to investigate, and they did withdraw. ”

Wu Yong said: "At this time, the letter is about mediation, which is reasonable, and it should indeed go." It's just that at this juncture, if you rush forward, you are afraid of more evil and less lucky. But if you don't go, I'm afraid you won't. ”

Zeng Huai said: "Yes, it is precisely because of this that I am in a dilemma. As already said in the letter, the emperor already knows the ins and outs of the matter, and it is inconvenient to come to Jiangnan to mediate for us, so let Zhang Lao act as a mediator to mediate the matter between us. This, in fact, does not need any mediation at all, as long as they withdraw from the army and Suzhou City is safe and sound, then it will be fine. ”

"Moreover, if you really want to mediate, wouldn't it be better to put it in Suzhou City, so that it seems more sincere. Wu Yong added.

Zeng Huai said: "Isn't that the case, the letter said that Zhang was old and had difficulty moving, so he could only let me go with that Zhang Zao." ”

Pang He asked at this time: "Is the person sent out by the adult back?"

Zhou Tong said: "Yes, if the messenger sent out has not returned, it means that the situation is more serious." ”

Zeng Huai said: "The person who sent the letter told me that the person I sent was at Mr. Zhang's house, so that Mr. Zhang could ask some information about the situation in Suzhou City for better mediation." ”

Zhou Tong said: "According to the current situation, we are completely passive, and since it is an order from the emperor, the adults can only go." ”

Zeng Huai said: "Yes, the king's order must not be done, and it must not be done! I will go this time, and Suzhou City will be handed over to you." ”

Wu Yong said: "My lord, Suzhou City, you definitely don't have to worry, their target is definitely not Suzhou City, if they attack Suzhou City, it will undoubtedly be a rebellion, I don't think they will be stupid enough to do this." Their real target may be you, my lord, so be careful when you go this time!"

Zhou Tong said: "I agree with Mr. Wang's opinion, their goal will definitely not be Suzhou City, if they still openly attack Suzhou City, it is nothing more than a provocation of the imperial power, but my lord, you are different, you are going to be mediated, that is to say, this matter has not been decided, they have every reason to do anything to you."
