Chapter 158: The Alliance Army
Pang He walked towards Zengtou City, and soon met Lin Chong, Shi Wengong, and Hu Sanniang who came to the rescue on the road. When Pang He saw that it was the three of them, he was very happy, especially Shi Wengong, and now he was safe.
Seeing that Pang He was able to escape safely, Sanniang and the two senior brothers were very happy, and Pang He also told the three of them what happened, and also introduced the flower monk Lu Zhishen, the walker Wu Song, and the little overlord Zhou Tong to Shi Wengong. also talked about the current situation, and Pang He asked his senior brother Shi Wengong to send someone to answer Chao Gai to avoid danger. After Shi Wengong heard this, he immediately arranged for his subordinates to go to investigate, and he was sure to bring Chao Gai and Liu Tang back safely.
Pang He was naturally happy to be able to get the help of his senior brother again, but he also knew that this matter was not over yet. It is safe at the moment, but what will be the fate of Chao Gai and Shi Wengong, Pang He is still worried, especially now that Chao Gai has not arrived safely in Zengtou City.
Shi Wengong didn't think so, he only knew that whoever bullied his senior brother and junior brother would fight with whom, so after receiving the news from Hu Sanniang, he hurried to support, as for what happened in the future, Shi Wengong didn't think much about it, and he didn't think about it.
As for Lin Chong, he was a little worried in his heart, what he was worried about was what would happen to Liangshan after this turmoil, and where would he be in it?
What about Hu Sanniang, what she wants is revenge, and after revenge, she will follow Pang He, and Pang He will go wherever he goes?
Back in Zengtou City, Zeng Rong's body has not fully recovered, and everything is still taken care of by Shi Wengong. The people sent by Shi Wengong also quickly found Chao Gai, and everyone discussed countermeasures together.
At this time, Zeng Lane received a very bad news, this news was a letter from Cai Jing telling Zeng Lane not to meddle in the affairs of Liangshan, otherwise the imperial army would definitely raze Zengtou City to the ground.
Zeng Lang has the ability to argue with Liangshan, but he has no capital to contradict the court. He is just a merchant in the Jin Kingdom, and he is in the Great Song Dynasty, only because of a little relationship and financial resources, he has today's status, if the court does it to himself, it is not as simple as pinching an ant to death.
Therefore, after receiving the news, Zeng Lane also discussed this matter with Shi Wengong, Zeng Lane is a person who cherishes talents very much, he actually hopes that Pang He, Lin Chong and others will work for him, so that his chassis can be better expanded. He also knew the status of Lin Chong and Pang He in Shi Wengong's mind, so he could only tell Shi Wengong about it, as for what Shi Wengong thought and how to choose, it was up to Shi Wengong.
Shi Wengong listened to Zeng Rong's words, and his heart was also very entangled, he knew that Zeng Lane was letting himself choose, the first choice was to stay in Zengtou City and continue to work for Zeng Rong, while his senior brother and younger brother could only leave;
Zeng Lane knew that Shi Wengong couldn't choose for a while, so he asked Shi Wengong to go back and think about it first. And Shi Wengong is a person who can't hide things on his face, he wrote his confusion on his face, Pang He and Lin Chong saw it on their faces, and asked if something happened. At the beginning, Shi Wengong was hesitant and refused to say, but under Pang He's soft grinding and hard bubbles, Shi Wengong told Lin Chong and Pang He when Cai Jing wrote a letter to Zeng Rong.
Pang He thought for a while and said, "Senior brother, I don't think we can leave, we have to deal with Song Jiang and Cai Jing with Zeng Rong." ”
Chao Gai said in surprise: "Deal with Song Jiang and Cai Jing together?"
Pang He nodded: "Well, yes, I'm sure Cai Jing and Song Jiang will definitely join forces, their common enemy now is us." Judging from the current situation, it should be that Cai Jing knows some news, and he will send people to form an alliance with Song Jiang, the purpose is to eliminate us. Therefore, he would send the letter to Zeng Rong, and if Zeng Lang understood it, he should know that even if we left, he would be a serious thorn in Cai Jing, a small thorn that would find a way to get rid of it. ”
Lin Chong asked, "Senior brother, where did you see it?"
Pang He replied: "It's very simple, judging from Cai Jing's personality and writing letters. What kind of person is Cai Jing, what kind of person is Gao Yu, senior brother doesn't know, this person is treacherous and cunning, and more importantly, this person is very scheming and the city, once he becomes an opponent, then try his best to get rid of it, Zhang Dian is the best example, no matter how good it was before, think about the fate of Zhang Tun. Zeng made him just a Jin countryman, if he wants to get rid of it, it is as easy as a snap, the emperor will definitely not say anything, maybe it is still a very popular thing. ”
Chao Gai said: "You're right, I also know that Cai Jing wants to find a reason for some things, it's really simple." ”
Pang He continued: "Now we can only join forces, get rid of Song Jiang first, and make Cai Jing fearful, so that we can reduce the threat a lot. ”
Shi Wengong said: "Senior brother, do you mean that we will join forces to kill Song Jiang? Old man Zeng, I'm afraid I don't agree." ”
Pang He said: "Zeng has been in business for so many years, I don't think he will be too ignorant, how many people in Zengtou City can fight, doesn't he know, after living here for so long, doesn't he know the bottom line about some officials of the imperial court? He is an understanding person, but he didn't think about it for a while, not to mention that he is also a person who cherishes talents very much, otherwise he wouldn't tell you about this matter and let you think about it." Senior brother, in this way, you can take me to meet Zeng Lang tomorrow, let me come and tell him, let him understand, let him understand, let him understand, if he still can't figure it out, then we will leave here in a few days. ”
Chao Gai said: "Okay, that's it for now, just like they really can't tolerate us, there's no point in us staying here." ”
Pang He said: "Well, Brother Chao, there are two more things, the first thing is to send someone to find out about the troops heading here, what I'm worried about is that Cai Jing has already made a move." Another thing is to inform the people on Liangshan and let them choose for themselves, whether to choose Song Jiang or you. That's all we can do now. If it weren't for Cai Jing, we could have cleaned up Song Jiang and then went back, but now it's different, and with Cai Jing, our chances of winning are very small. ”
Chao Gai said: "I'm worried that few of Liangshan's brothers may not choose us. ”
Pang He said: "Brother Chao, you are wrong, we were worried that someone would attack Liangshan, so we would leave our brother on the mountain. But now it's different, we have to fight to the death now, and we will have a chance to survive. The people led by Song Jiang basically obey him, but Hu Yanzhuo is different, he is neutral, as for the three brothers such as Gongsun Daochang and Ruan Xiaoer, they are completely on your side, so as long as they handle it properly, then I believe that most of the brothers on Liangshan still choose us. ”
