Chapter 1086 The official army is faint, and the strong bandit can rely on it
However, it is said that Hu Taigong, Hu Cheng, Hu Sanniang and others were all kidnapped by Jing Zhong under the command of Ximen Qing. When they were taken to Yanggu County, several other stewards of Hujiazhuang were also captured by the army. But in the end, Jing Zhong
His subordinates were still serving as officers and soldiers, so they could not capture all the tenants in the village, let alone massacre them in broad daylight. However, there were still several members of the clan who were close friends who saw the young master being captured, and they started arguing with each other.
In summary, we also know that although Xiao Tang and his Hu family have some friendship now, and they are official figures who can speak to each other, we don't know where he is now, and water from afar cannot quench the thirst for nearness.
Although the Hu family was convicted of secretly colluding with bandits, a discerning eye could see that Xianggong Ximen had other agendas. He was driven here not because the Hu family was really guilty, but because he coveted the ancestral property accumulated by Sanniang Hu and the Hu family.
.
Therefore, these few confidants decided to go directly to find the strong bandits from the Three Mountains who were about to march eastward. Let's not talk about Liangshanbo for the time being, but they also knew that the leader Hanxuan was sent by the two mountains of Qingzhou to teach them.
Liang Shanbo released his young lady. Although they did not know the details of the reason in detail as Hu Cheng did, these few Hu Cheng's confidants also knew that the heroes of the two mountains of Qingzhou acted with benevolence and righteousness first.
It is inconvenient to have too much contact, but now it has become the only hope for Hu Cheng and others to save Grand Duke Hu.
As for the charges of secretly collaborating with bandits, the person who is now blatantly going to the village to frame the Hu family is the senior official of the Criminal and Prison Department on Jingdong Road, falsely accusing the Hu family of colluding with the Green Forest bandits. And the current situation is the same, and he can take action
To save Taigong Hu's family, we really can only rely on those green forest troops.
These few close friends ran down Dulonggang and headed east, only looking for soldiers and horses in the green forest and the three mountains. They ran for about thirty or forty miles. Suddenly, they heard the sound of gongs and drums at the entrance of the mountain in front, and saw the hillside again.
Three to five hundred military warriors flashed out from the side, each with weapons in hand. They were surrounded by a strong leader and shouted loudly: "You guys, what are you doing? The troops of the three mountains of Green Forest are here. Anyone with some discernment can also
You have to get out of the way and just keep an eye on the collision here. Could it be that the gang of birds in Zhujiazhuang are the agents sent by them? Children, take these guys down first and then question them!"
The few soldiers who were rushing towards us immediately rolled their saddles and dismounted their horses after seeing this. One of the leaders shouted loudly: "You heroes! But I don't know whether they are soldiers and horses from Shuibo Liangshan or righteous men from Qingzhou and Qingzhou mountains?"
The leader of the strongman who was leading the sentinel here saw this and urged his horse forward, saying: "It's a trick! I am Yang Chun, the white-flowered snake, who is under the command of Panlong Camp in Erlong Mountain. You are trying to find out where my soldiers are coming from, but you are
What else?"
After hearing this, the man's face was filled with joy and he immediately said: "I am a helper of Young Master Hu of Hujiazhuang. In the past, the heroes of Menggui Village helped me out of righteousness. I was entrusted by Young Master and also went to Erlong Mountain to express my gratitude for your great kindness."
, so I know the two leaders Zhang San and Li Si, and I also met Master Lu, Ou Peng, Ma Lin, Cao Zheng and other leaders in Guizhai, so I will never dare to deceive!"
The soldiers and horses of Sanshan marched westward. Yang Chun led some soldiers and horses to serve as sentries and guards here. According to Xiao Tang's instructions, no merchants passing by were allowed to infringe. Now that the western boundary of Dongping Prefecture is not peaceful, most merchants will probably take a detour to avoid it.
It is a disaster caused by military disasters, and if you encounter anyone who behaves strangely, you can capture it and interrogate it later. And Yang Chun heard that this man bluntly said that he was from Hujiazhuang, and said that he had met Zhang San, Li Si, Cao Zheng and other brothers in the village.
, Lu Zhishen, Ou Peng, Ma Lin and others are also in the army now, so they are not afraid of him committing fraud.
The alert look on Yang Chun's face faded a bit, and he said again: "We, two mountains of heroes, are going to attack the group of birds gathered in Zhujiazhuang. Although they are all on the border of Dulonggang, they will not attack you at Hujiazhuang."
.It’s just that we are heroes of the green forest. You, the innocent big family, will be interrogated by the government if you interact with us too much. Now is the time to use troops, why do you, Hujiazhuang, come to look for my troops?"
After hearing this, a bitter smile appeared on Hu Chengna's face, and he said again: "Chief Yang, it was a few dog officers who led the officers and soldiers to our village to frame our village and secretly colluded with the bandits... secretly with the heroes of the green forest.
The charges against Grand Duke Hu, the young master, and the young lady were all taken by them. Moreover, the official's intention was not that my Hu family had presented a gift to the hero of Guizhai to express gratitude, but that he wanted to harm my young lady and plot against my Hu family village again.
Money, food and property! The villain and the others have no idea, so they have no choice but to shamelessly come back to report to the heroes of the two mountains. I also ask Leader Yang to recommend it on my behalf and teach the villain how to meet the leader of your village!"
Yang Chunjian said that he was aware of the matter and could not be scornful. He also knew that the Hu family was just a wealthy family that did not want to cause trouble. Moreover, they had received favors from Xiaotang officials and from the Green Forest, so they were old friends with his brother.
, and was not an enemy of the village, he immediately whispered to a leader beside him: "You are here to guard, I will take a few of them to see brother Shi Jin first, and then quickly report to the Chinese army.
Know about Brother Xiao Tang!"......
Now that the soldiers and horses of the three mountains have temporarily set up camp, Xiao Tang and some brothers are also gathered in the commander's tent. The expressions on their faces are also very solemn, thinking that someone from Xiaojiaji has secretly conveyed news not long ago.
It was said that Liang Shijie, the left-behind prime minister of Daming Prefecture, wanted to raise troops from several states in Hebei Province, and even sent people to Xiaojiaji. He ordered the village warriors in the town to also mobilize troops. Chen Xizhen, Zhu Yongqing and others gathered troops to clear out Jingdong Road.
In the midst of the war in the Three Mountains and Dazhai.
Now the generals in Daming Prefecture’s Remaining Division, Guan Sheng, Suo Chao, Xuan Zan, and Hao Siwen have fought alongside him many times and can be regarded as his old subordinates. Xiao Tang also knows that he is in the officialdom.
Acting on two fronts, sooner or later he is very likely to encounter some of his comrades who don't know what he is planning. Liang Shijie, the left-behind prime minister of Daming Mansion, is also his old boss. Although this man is greedy, his appearance is not ugly, and he is also
He is not the kind of cruel and ignorant official who exploits and oppresses the people with extreme cruelty. After all, there has not yet been a formal rebellion. Xiao Tang would try his best to avoid a head-on conflict with Liang Shijie unless he had to.
But now they are gradually becoming distant from each other. From Lu Junyi's murder case, Xiao Tang can also see that Liang Zhongshu's greedy and money-grabbing methods have begun to be a bit dirty. Although each of them got what they needed back then, they lived in harmony in the Daming Prefecture's left-behind department for several years.
Years, but in the final analysis, we are not the same people after all.
What made Xiao Tang feel that the situation was even more serious was that he knew very well that Liang Shijie's decision must have come from the instruction of Cai Jing, the powerful prime minister behind him.
In fact, Xiao Tang was also very surprised that Cai Jing participated in the conquest of local green forest soldiers and horses. This old and cunning powerful official had been focusing on the party and government struggles in the court, and fought in various places in the Song Dynasty to suppress bandits and other wars.
Not caring at all. In the original work, Cai Jing and Liang Shanbo first formed a relationship because the birth certificate presented to him by Liang Shijie was robbed. After learning about this, he immediately sent people to Jeju Prefecture to seize Fu Yin and ordered him to be captured immediately.
There was a gang of thieves, but after the government sent two groups of soldiers and horses one after another and were defeated, there was nothing more to say.
Cai Jing had another head-on conflict with the Liangshan Army in the book. This was because Liangshan sent troops to rescue Lu Junyi, Shi Xiu and others in Daming Prefecture. The important place in the famous city under the control of his son-in-law was invaded by bandit soldiers, so he sent out guards.
Sheng and others encircled and suppressed Liangshan, but what happened next? Cai Jing "Seeing that Guan Sheng was surrendered, he didn't even dare to mention it before the emperor. He just advocated recruiting peace, and everyone was fine. So he sent letters to Liang Zhongshu, teaching Taoism, and staying with Lu Junyi.
Shi Xiu's two lives are easy to use as hands"...
Cai Jing's concubine Cai Jiu was about to kill Song Jiang but was robbed of the execution ground. His disciple He Taishou also died in the hands of the Liangshan Army in Huazhou. Originally, the relationship between them was getting deeper and deeper, but Cai Jing was also in Gao Qiu.
, Tong Guan and others came up with the idea behind his back when they were cruel enough to bring down Liangshan. After Liangshan accepted the recruitment, Cai Jing never took the initiative to plot to murder the Liangshan group. Except when Cai Jing was conquering Qingshi, another king of the Four Bandits.
Wu Xue Yu Luo Jian gave him a hard slap in front of the officials. But when Zhao Ji brought out Gao Qiu, Tong Guan, Yang Jian and others to scold and scold them, they seemed to be involved in those treacherous ministers' scandals, but they did not take full advantage of them.
Cai Jing, who was involved, always stayed out of the matter. Whether it was the tragic failure of the conquest of Liangshan or the infamy of being the culprit who secretly murdered Song Jiang and others, he could not be blamed.
Xiao Tang knew that this was an old ghost from Cai Jing, and compared to his real ambition, getting entangled with some people from green forest and grass bandit backgrounds was a loss of status for him, and Cai Jing did not disdain given his status in the court.
Use some of the military exploits in conquering bandits to seek rewards from the officials. But this time, if Cai Jing instructs Liang Shijie to dispatch heavy troops to conquer the Green Forest Army, what is his real purpose?
The left-behind department of Daming Prefecture...the local brave of Xiaojiaji...and his connection with some leaders of the soldiers and horses in the two mountains of Qingzhou...Xiao Tang cleared his mind before thinking about it.
I finally realized a possibility: Cai Jing’s actions are aimed at me?
