After leaving Chao Gai's residence, Wu Yong took advantage of the moonlight and came to Song Jiang's courtyard in the mountain village.
At this time, several Liangshan leaders were gathering in Song Jiang's house, seemingly discussing something.
After seeing Wu Yong's arrival, Song Jiang, who was thick and dark-faced, quickly stood up and grabbed Wu Yong's arm without waiting for him to salute.
"Brother Wu Yong, how did that matter go?"
"Brother, don't worry. Although Chao Gai is known as Chao Tianwang, in fact, apart from having a handful of strength, he has great ambitions and few talents, and has no independent opinions. The younger brother just persuaded him with a few words, and he was moved. It is estimated that he will be in the gathering hall tomorrow.
Then he will ask the village leader to lead troops to attack Zhujiazhuang!" Wu Yong said with a chuckle.
"So, Brother Wu Yong has really done a great job!"
Song Jiang suddenly clapped his hands in joy, and then laughed and said: "The Zhujiazhuang in Dulonggang is a tough nut to crack, and it is said that the three families of Hujiazhuang and Lijiazhuang around it are connected with each other, and have no more than 10,000 or 20,000 troops. Zhuangzi
There are so many powerful people here, if Chao Gai really leads his army to attack, he will probably lose his head and bleed!"
"What my brother is saying is that I have long disliked Chao Gai. He has no skills at all, yet he still sits in the third position. He should have given up that seat to Brother Song Jiang long ago!"
Next to Song Jiang, a tall, dark-skinned man with a full beard, two large axes on his waist, and a strong aura of recklessness echoed blankly.
Song Jiang smiled slightly when he heard this, but did not scold the other party. Instead, he turned around, cupped his fists towards a very handsome young man in silver armor next to him and said: "Brother Hua Rong, if Chao Gai really comes tomorrow,
As for the expedition, what happens next depends entirely on you, my dear brother!"
Hua Rong looked a little embarrassed and couldn't make a decision for a while. He hesitated and said: "Brother, it's just a status struggle. Is it necessary to kill him?"
As soon as Hua Rong said these words, Wu Yong's expression suddenly changed.
Although he changed his family and secretly betrayed Chao Gai and joined Song Jiang, after all, he and Chao Gai had been friends for many years. The purpose of scheming against him this time was to make Chao Gai move his position to Song Jiang, but he had no intention of putting Chao Gai to death.
After all, in Wu Yong's view, the village is now divided into several factions, and Chao Gai is indeed unlikely to become a great leader. In the future, if the village leader takes over the world and rewards based on his merits, Chao Gai will definitely be marginalized and he will still follow Song Jiang's group.
Mixed, more promising!
From what Song Jiang meant, he wanted Hua Rong to secretly kill Chao Gai when Chao Gai attacked Zhujiazhuang. This so-called Xiaoyi Black Saburo was a bit too unscrupulous in his actions!
"Brother Song Jiang, I have something to say. I don't know whether I should say it or not?" Wu Yong said after hesitating slightly for a moment.
"We brothers, what can't we say?" Song Jiang raised his eyebrows with a warm smile on his face.
"Then tell the truth!" Wu Yong's expression suddenly became serious and he said in a deep voice: "Chao Gai can die, but he must not die in the hands of our brothers!"
"How do you say this?" Song Jiang's face froze and he asked doubtfully.
"Brother Song Jiang, what do you think of the village leader?" Wu Yong suddenly changed the subject and asked with a smile.
"Well... Village Master, I'm a little confused!" Song Jiang thought for a moment and continued: "Originally, I was unwilling to fall into the trap of becoming a bandit. Even after I fell into the trap, what I thought in my heart was that one day
, can be recruited by the imperial court and work as an official and a part-time official!"
"But since I met the owner of the village and learned about the development in the village, I suddenly felt that developing in this village of Liangshan is also an excellent choice!"
Having said this, Song Jiang's voice became much lower, "Anyone with a brain in the village can basically understand that the village leader definitely has the ambition to dominate the world!"
"The village owner seems not to care much about the affairs in the village, but whether it is the military, finance or personnel appointments, they are actually firmly in his hands and managed according to the court system! Our Liangshanbo is not so much a group of bandits.
The lair is rather a small court, a court force that is in the stage of hiding its power and biding its time!"
Wu Yong nodded repeatedly when he heard this, "Brother Song Jiang sees things very thoroughly, I admire you!"
As he spoke, he stretched out four fingers and continued: "Now we have four factions in Liangshan Bozhong!"
"The first faction is naturally the officer faction headed by Lin Chong. Most of the people in this faction are military generals or officers in the imperial court. They are old acquaintances with Lin Chong. This faction is the absolute direct descendant of the village owner!
"
When Wu Yong felt that there was no future in following Chao Gai, he originally wanted to try to integrate into Lin Chong's faction. Unfortunately, others looked down on him for his small ideas. In desperation, he turned to join Lin Chong's faction.
Arrive at Songjiang.
"The second faction is the old man's faction headed by Chao Gai. Most of the people in this faction are people who joined the gang early after the village owner took over Liangshanbo. There are not many capable people, but there are a lot of them."
"The third faction is the new faction headed by Brother Song Jiang. Our faction does not have as many people as Chao Gai, but most of them are capable heroes and have made a lot of contributions to the village. Although they are not the direct descendants of the village owner,
But it’s quite popular with the village owner!”
"As for the fourth faction, it is not so much a faction as a group of neutral leaders, such as Ruyun Long Gongsun Sheng and Shenji Military Advisor Zhu Wu. They are not too close to the previous factions and only obey the village leader.
Apart from official duties, I don’t get too involved in other things!”
Speaking of this, Wu Yong said bitterly: "What a shame, Gongsun Sheng, Lu Junyi and others, or Brother Song Jiang, you tried to recruit them into the gang. Unexpectedly, after entering the mountain, they alienated you. It's really hateful!"
"
Song Jiang waved his hands with a stern expression, unwilling to mention the matter more. After all, his original method of recruiting people into the gang was somewhat disgraceful, and it was understandable that some people had resentment towards him.
"Brother Wu Yong, you have said so much, what exactly do you want to say?" Song Jiang was a little confused. Wu Yong talked so much, but what does this have to do with not being able to kill Chao Gai?
"Brother, wherever there are people, there are factions. The leader of the village is definitely aware of the situation in our village. Do you agree with this?"
Song Jiang nodded, "The leader of the village is talented and wise. If the leader of our village forms a clique, we will definitely not be able to hide it from him!"
"Brother understands this, then it will be easy to handle!" Wu Yong was relieved that Song Jiang was so understanding, and continued: "The reason why the village leader turned a blind eye to such cliques in the village and even maintained acquiescence
, that’s because although these major factions are in a competitive relationship, they are still in a state of fighting but not breaking up. The fierce competition between these major factions will actually contribute to the rapid development of Shanzhai!"
"But brother, have you ever thought about it, if we take the lead to break this situation and secretly kill Chao Gai, what will happen next if the village leader knows about it?"
