Xiao Tang sent someone to see Guan Sheng off and praise him, and Hao Siwen went down the mountain. They knew that although they still had different ideas, they had become enemies for a while, and they could let the three of them go back to fight for something.
This is also the best choice for the opportunity to serve the country. This feeling is like the Anti-Japanese War is about to start with the Japanese. Li Yunlong cannot harm Chu Yunfei, and they should help each other more when necessary.
All the brothers in the village understand their brother's actions very well. They rescue those generals who are willing to be used by the country, but it does not mean that those who cannot be used by me must be eliminated to avoid becoming enemies in the future. Among them, only Tang Bin is Guan Sheng.
His old friends sighed, and before saying goodbye to Guan Sheng, Xuan Zan, and Hao Siwen, he said to the three of them: "Brother, I cherish the two brothers. I know that my brother has his own way of dealing with the world. We, the two mountains of Qingzhou,
A hero is doing justice for heaven under the leadership of his elder brother. Although he cannot be used by the military, he has been sharing his heart with all his brothers over the years, and his heart is filled with unspeakable joy! I dare not forget the old friendship, and only hope for each other.
Don’t let confidants kill each other, or close friends turn against each other! When we meet again in the future, you and I will still be brothers who cut each other’s throats!”
Guan Sheng couldn't help but have tears in his eyes after hearing what Tang Bin said. He still refused to appear too emotional in front of everyone, so he had to say decisively: "Brother, take care of it!" Then with the praise, Hao Siwen turned around and strode forward.
Left the main hall.
Although Guan Sheng and the other three people came down the mountain, Xiao Tang also knew that the remaining Siguan army suffered a disastrous defeat. The Daming Mansion was attacked by the brothers from Qingzhou under his command in a short period of time. Even the governor of Fu Yin, Wang Taishou and other important officials of the state had already
If someone is killed by oneself, there will always be a leader in the local army who will take the blame for the defeat. There were also snooping leaders in the two mountains of Qingzhou who discovered that Liang Shijie and a group of family members were accompanied by Wen Da, and Li Cheng and other officers and generals were all the way.
There was a lot of noise, and they had already fled to the border of Weizhou on the West Road of Hebei Province, but they also heard that the strong bandits from the two mountains in Qingzhou had evacuated and returned to the south within a few days after they broke through Daming Mansion. After Liang Shijie sent Weizhou Commander Si Jiqingqi to verify
After making inquiries and confirming that the strongmen who had invaded Daming Mansion had already retreated completely, the group of them went around in a circle on the west boundary of Hebei Road, carefully guarding and exploring all the way, and then returned to Daming Mansion.
Xiao Tang could also expect that Daming Mansion, one of the companion capitals of the Song Dynasty and the first military and political center in the north, would fall. For Liang Shijie, even if he could rely on the power of his father-in-law Cai Jing in the court, this would be a stain on his political performance that would be difficult to wash away. Nowadays,
However, Daming Mansion was lost and recovered. How to report to the court Liang Shijie still had to do a good job in writing, thereby downplaying his responsibility for the unfavorable supervision of Daming Mansion and causing the city to fall. Although this would also reduce the court's awareness of the power of the Qingzhou two mountain bandits.
The danger is huge, but the left-behind Secretary Fu Yin was killed, and Liang Shijie's belongings were swept away... Li Cheng and Wen Da, the two close confidants of the left-behind husband, are unlikely to be punished with serious crimes, so the left-behind Secretary
The blame for the defeat can only be borne by Guan Sheng, the local military commander.
Xiao Tang then secretly sent people to Xiaojiaji to instruct the brothers in the market town to advise on the movements of the Daming Prefecture's left-behind department. Guan Sheng and the other three were dismissed from their positions as military judges after being found guilty. It was highly possible that they would be demoted and replaced.
Among the three of them, Hao Siwen did not get married. Xuan Zan had no intention of choosing another wife since the married princess died out of resentment because of his honorable appearance. However, Guan Sheng brought his family with him when he went to Daming Mansion's left-behind department.
Bring Xiao Yi here with him. When two mountains of soldiers and horses attacked Daming Mansion, Xiao Tang also secretly sent his brothers to patrol Guan Sheng's mansion in the city. Although he did not follow Song Jiang's routine, he sent his family members directly to the village.
Thereby coercing Guan Sheng into submission, he did not disturb Guan Sheng's family because of the crowd of people. However, after inquiring, he found out that Guan Sheng's wife Chen, his brother-in-law Chen Kui, and his youngest son Guan Ling were in the mansion.
If Guan Sheng, Xuan Zan, and Hao Siwen are really going to be punished for being defeated and sent to the army, Xiao Tang will naturally tell the brothers in the market town to pay attention to the living conditions of Guan Sheng's family. Not only because he respects Guan Sheng's character.
, Xiao Tang naturally also knew very well who his brother-in-law Chen Kui and his youngest son Guan Ling were.
After Guan Sheng and three others were sent down to Dazhai, because the two mountains of Qingzhou Dazhai added leaders such as Lu Junyi, Zhang Qing, Suo Chao, Fan Rui, Zhou Jin, Hu Cheng, Hu Sanniang, Gong Wang, Ding De, Sun Xiangchong, and Li Gun,
As well as Sun Li, Zhu Dian, Jie Zhen, Jie Bao, Lu Fang, Guo Sheng and other brothers who led an army but were not fully organized, the two mountains of Qingzhou and even the tribes of the mountains under the control of Xiao and Tang were also organized.
Needs to be reorganized.
There is also the left-behind officer general Wang Ding who came back and defected to the stronghold. Although the reason why Wang Ding also joined the gang and became the leader of the bandits was somewhat forced by the situation, he is now desperate.
Chao, Zhou Jin and the old Paoze who had been together for many years told who the co-owner of Shushan was. After the shock, Wang Dingxin, who had no choice but to fall into despair, said that he had defected to Green Forest Village. The leader turned out to be the one who was in the left-behind army.
My old superior, at the end of his rope, this is the best place to stay.
Among them, Sun Li, Suo Chao, Zhang Qing and others are all regular military generals. They are naturally very skilled in handling soldiers and horses, commanding troops and supervising operations. Except for Suo Chao, the vanguard among them, who dared to fight and kill because he was too strong.
, rushing to fight first, but prone to impatience and rashness, and needing to be restrained by a calm and prudent general, you can also stand alone;
Among the other leaders who were not imperial officers, with Lu Junyi's reputation and superb martial arts, plus the fact that he, the Jade Qilin, had the same friendship with him, even if he was taught to be the commander of the army,
With limited ability, he can still be in charge of a group of soldiers and horses and become a general; as for Zhu Dian, who is proficient in horse and martial arts and has a relatively calm and steady temperament... After all, he was just the head of the county government, and he used to lead up to several people.
The ten yamen officers were hunting down local bandits. Given that the current war experience was less than that of other officers and generals who were accustomed to fighting, it seemed a bit unreasonable to appoint this handsome bearded man as the commander-in-chief of the army.
Now the war with Chen Xizhen, Zhu Yongqing and the gang of bandits is over for the time being. Xiao Jiasui, who often follows him to make suggestions and can also act in official circles, travels between Xiaojiaji and Qingzhou mountains, paying close attention to the situation in Daming Mansion.
After the movement, he had returned to the stronghold. Xiao Tang was now discussing with the most senior leaders in the stronghold such as Xiao Jiasui and Lin Chong how to appoint those brothers to reorganize the Ma Bu Army as generals and assistants.
Before preparing to finalize the assignments of leaders who had recently gathered together and were to be reorganized and appointed, Xiao Tang, Xiao Jiasui, Lin Chong and others first called Suo Chao for advance consultation. After all, although Suo Chao is a straightforward man,
Xiao Tang also knew that he had a close friendship with him, but if this fierce man who was brave enough to be among the Eight Hussars of Liangshan in the original work and had to sacrifice his life to be the first in a battle was only allowed to be a partial general, he would be afraid.
Suo Chao will also feel that he has been underestimated and looked down upon.
As for which branch Suo Chao would be sent to serve as a partial general, Xiao Tang already had an idea in his mind.
Among the original cavalry troops in the two mountain villages of Qingzhou, compared to the generals such as Yang Zhi of the Tianbo Camp, Qin Ming of the Benlei Camp, and Shi Jin of the Panlong Camp, the Leopard Head Lin Chong who was in charge of the Tianxiong Camp had a higher reputation in the village, both in terms of prestige and reputation.
His qualifications are all among the best, and Lin Chong currently has only one general under his command. Although he is fierce and militant, he is still in the green forest and his ability to lead troops is very limited.
As an officer and general, Deng Fei worked with Lin Chong and Suo Chao, which greatly helped him improve his ability to march and fight. Lin Chong, who was steady and reserved, assessed the situation, and Suo Chao, a fierce general, complemented each other. Xiao Tang thought that this was also the most important thing.
The right combination.
And when Xiao Tang made his thoughts clear to Suo Chao, the rough and straightforward Suo Chao showed no reluctance at all, but laughed loudly: "If my brother hadn't promoted and appreciated me back then, I would have been in the left-behind department.
I don't know how long I will have to hang around as a small official of the Banner. It was only later that Meng Xun was promoted to the rank of military commander based on merit. Now he is living happily in the village, so what can he do if he is just a pawn?
What's more, I'm so eager to succeed and fail. I've fought side by side with my elder brother for many years. How could I not know that it was because of my impatience that I made such an arrangement? In the previous fierce battle with our two mountains, it was just because of my temper.
I easily fell into the trap and took it from the brothers of the Ambush Cult. My brother was thinking about me, so why didn’t he want to, and he was able to obey the orders of Lin Chong, the leader of the 800,000 Forbidden Army, in front of my brother’s tent, so I am convinced!”
After Suo Chao laughed loudly, he turned his head to look at Lin Chong, and said succinctly: "Brother Lin Chong, I will work with you from now on. I hope you will give me some advice!"
