Chapter 1269 Liangshan is a good place, and it is easier to get it than before
Wang Jin and Niu Gao also came to Erlong Mountain, and a large banquet was held in the village, so that everyone could take care of them. Not only the brothers who had been trained in martial arts by Wang Jin, but also Xi Huarong, Zhai Xing, Zhai Jin, etc.
Both Wang Jin and Niu Gao once followed Xiao Tang and Xia Guocha Ge in the side court to fight fiercely, and the leaders who were all comrades couldn't help but talk about the past, but now they all gathered in the village to be happy, and they felt something for a moment.
, and they all lamented endlessly.
Xiao Tang also went down the mountain to intercept Wang Ying, Wang Jiang, Dong Hai and other gangsters who had committed crimes in his name, and killed them all one after another. On the way, he also rescued a group of gangsters who were convicted by the government and wanted to be taken to Jingkou to work as prostitutes.
The exiled women have all been settled in the Mulan camp under the control of Hu Sanniang, and Liangshan Chao Gai and Song Jiang have also roughly explained to the brothers present about their unauthorized killing of Wang Ying, the leader of the camp.
Wu Song, who had also made contributions in Bianting and was very close to Niu Gao, the Zhai brothers and others, heard Xiao Tang speak. He put down the wine bowl in his hand and suddenly frowned and said: "The name of Song Gongming is often heard in the world. Originally,
I thought he was a hero who only Wu Song respected me. Since he and Chao Gaixiao gathered in Liangshan and worked side by side with us, he could resist the army. But now it seems...Song Jiang is actually difficult to live up to his reputation.
, all criminal gangsters treat each other as brothers. Even if Liangshan is restrained by Chao Gai, he is better than ordinary green forest gangsters, but if we say that he is upright and aboveboard, compared with our two mountains in Qingzhou, he still hides evil and evil.
!
What's more, it was just a temporary expedient for Song Jiang to spread the news that the green forest strongmen would gather in Liangshan. He also said that he expected the imperial court to pardon his crimes and bring him peace. This not only chilled the hearts of some leaders in his stronghold, but for us, it was not that he had been reluctant to fight with us for a long time.
We and other brothers are on the same team? I, Coach Wang, Hua Rong, Niu Gao, Zhai Xing, Zhai Jin and many other brothers have never seriously risked their lives to fight in the side court to gain a high-ranking officer? Co-authored by Brother Xiao Tang in
When an official in the court occupies an important position, isn't it because he knows that evil and evil are at work in the court, so he has no choice but to leave the court in order to plot a big plan? And that guy Song Jiang went against the grain and wanted to submit to the government again. Now it seems that he will become his enemy sooner or later!"
It sounds like it was not easy to deal with him because of his strong temperament. When he first met Song Gongming in the original work, Wu Song, who was in admiration for his name, always called Song Jiang "that guy". It can be seen that now
Not only did Wu Erlang dislike Song Jiang at all, he also strongly disagreed with his efforts to recruit peace in Liangshan. However, at this moment, Xiao Tang heard someone beside him suddenly say:
"In fact, in my opinion, Quan Yin's brother Jing Chao Gai and others were loyal and good men, so he left them in Liangshan to have a place to live. At that time, if we wanted to take Liangshan, even if it was not easy, Zhemo would not bother.
How much strength, but later there were Song Jiang and others there. If those people stayed, unless they were brothers who knew each other's secrets and knew each other's heart, if one or two had different intentions, the big plan planned by the elder brother would be revealed, and the situation would be dangerous;
But if those people want to be killed, they are green forest thieves who have done evil things and even broken my brother's rules. Especially people like Song Jiang who have a high reputation in the world, but they have to teach my brother to bear the reputation of being good at killing heroes in the green forest.
How can we sincerely join my brother Juyi when the land is green and lush? We had such scruples at the beginning that we did not go there, but instead taught Chao Gai, Song Jiang and others to recruit troops and horses in Liangshanbo, and developed the strong momentum we have today.
Now that my brother has done something openly, and everyone in the world knows that he once acted in the green forest in the name of Iron-faced Haechi Quanyu, he naturally no longer has the worries as before, so if you ask me, it is time for us to take off the
Liangshan has stopped..."
When all the brothers present heard this, except for Hua Rong, Zhang Shun and others who looked embarrassed and hesitated to speak, the rest of them were also surprised and looked at Xiao Jiasui who had finished speaking leisurely.
Xiao Tang naturally understood that Xiao Jiasui could not understand that Song Jiang could tolerate Wang Ying, Yanshun and other vicious bandits who harmed good people. He also understood why Xiao Jiasui now suggested that he could occupy Liangshan. After all, he was openly rebelling. , is no small matter, but considering that the gathering places of Xiao Tang's forces are now too scattered, at least considering the environment of the two mountains of Qingzhou, there is no room for strategic depth.
What's more, just based on the mountain danger, although the fortifications of the dangerous pass in front of the mountain are now complete, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack, the two mountains of Qingzhou have attracted green forests and grass from all over the place to compete for them. In terms of space, it can be settled. The troops, their families, as well as money, food, materials, defense ordnance, etc. are already close to saturation. Liangshanbo has a radius of more than 800 miles and is surrounded by water. There are Wanzi City, Liaoerwa, etc. in the middle, making it even easier to defend and difficult to attack. Where to go, and the geographical location of the two mountains of Qingzhou is not very far away. Even if the Manichaeans led by Jiangnan La are more harmful to the Song Dynasty, they can attract the firepower of the main conquest army of the imperial court. At present, the soldiers of the two mountains of Qingzhou Ma Ye was inconvenient to invade prefectures and plunder counties on a large scale to expand his territory, but Liangshan, a Shuibo village originally occupied by green forest gangsters, was not the most suitable expansion territory that Xiao Tang should occupy immediately?
Especially since Song Jiang has revealed that he hopes to accept the recruitment, the previous cooperative relationship has very likely turned friends into enemies. Even if he breaks the rules of the world by seizing the territory of fellow Green Lin, how can everything be done now that he has openly committed the crime? Should we act according to the unwritten agreement between the green forest thieves? What's more, considering that the other party has already accepted the intention of the imperial court, then assuming that the first strike is the strongest, seizing Liangshan by force is naturally within the strategic goals that can be considered.
But Xiao Jiasui looked up and saw Xiao Tang with a smile on his face. He took a sip of wine but said nothing. He also found that his brother had already been worried about Yu Liangshan's attitude.
Originally, before Xiao Tang, Wang Ying, Wang Jian, Xiang Mi and others rode down the mountain to kill Wang Aohu and other evil thieves, Xiao Jiasui actually considered whether he could take advantage of this conflict to attack Liangshan Po quickly. The possibility, but at that time Xiao Tang said to Xiao Jiasui: "Brothers lurking in Liangshan, there should be news of important matters in Liangshanbo in these days, and even if they have acted openly now, they may not be able to act according to the loyalty of the Jianghu. , and take care of all the heroes in Liangshan who can be used by us, but even if we have to go and earn them, some people are afraid that they will not stay in Liangshan for long..."
After getting along with each other for these years, Xiao Jiasui thought that when Xiao Tang had figured out the general character of the capable people and strangers who came to join the camp, he admired them very much. In addition to Gongsun Sheng in Liangshan, Li Zongzheng also admired the lurking people in Liangshan. In front of the inside, there are indeed people with extravagant abilities, so Xiao Jiasui also knows that although Liangshan definitely wants to take it, he should first wait for what big noise Liangshanbo will make according to Xiao Tang's wishes, and teach Qingzhou and Qingzhou mountains to profit from it. .
As for Xiao Tang, he is not only waiting for the division of public opinion caused by the recruitment incident in Liangshan, because he also clearly remembers a very important detail in the original work. If some things still proceed according to the original track... ....There is no need to attack Liangshan Po by force as Xiao Jiasui considered. Not only will it lose manpower, but it will also miss some Liangshan people who could still be recruited. Even if Liangshan has been occupied by Chao Gai and Song Jiang, , by then it might even be possible to easily occupy Shuibo Liangshan without spending a single soldier, which was already heavily guarded, and the walls inside and outside the village were intact.
Although he now has many capable men and generals under his command, the more heroes he can recruit to assist him in his great cause, the more the better for Xiao Tang.
While Xiao Tang was thinking about the leaders from Liangshan who had the opportunity to recruit, there was also a pair of people from Liangshan in the original work who had come all the way and had already arrived at the wine shop not far from the wine shop in front of Erlong Mountain in Qingzhou.
