He is a very loyal person, otherwise he would not keep his integrity and follow a few new acquaintances to rob the birthday plan.
Even now, I don't feel angry knowing that Wu Yong, a wise man, is unwilling to let his talents be buried and makes all kinds of troubles.
Chai Daguan's words have been very obvious.
Chao Gai is not a fool, how could he not hear it?
Zhiduoxing Wu Yong is now closely connected with Song Jiang, mainly because Song Jiang can help him realize his ambitions, and Chao Gai is naturally abandoned because he is inferior to him.
"Can you, high official, help me clarify my doubts as to why things have developed to this point?"
After being depressed for a while, Chao Gai regained his composure, looked at Chai Daguan and asked directly: "I don't understand, I feel really depressed!"
"The King of Heaven definitely has no intention of accepting the imperial court's recruitment!"
"Of course, I just want to drink and eat meat in a big bowl with my brothers in Liangshan, and live a free and easy life!"
"But now some leaders want a better future!"
"They want a better future and they want to leave Liangshan and strive for it, and I will never stop them!"
"But without the foundation of Liangshan, these leaders can't make much trouble outside. How can the court bother to recruit people?"
"Co-author, these guys want to occupy the magpie's nest?"
Chao Gai's eyes widened angrily and he said with an unhappy look on his face: "How can there be such a truth in this world?"
"The king is joking!"
Chai Daguan said with a smile: "We are just bandits. We are labeled as bandits. How can we make any sense?"
Chao Gai was speechless for a moment, but looking at his angry expression, it was obvious that he was not convinced.
"King of Heaven, the key now is that the leaders and brothers on Liangshan Mountain are basically Song Gongming's men!"
Chai Daguan didn't take it seriously and said leisurely: "It is impossible for the king of heaven to make a difference. How can he fight with Song Gongming?"
Chao Gai was extremely depressed for a moment. Although the words of the high official sounded unpleasant, they were true.
but……
He quickly reacted and said directly: "Is it possible that the high-ranking officials also support accepting the imperial court's recruitment?"
"How can it be?"
Chai Daguan said with a smile: "I finally escaped from the supervision of Zhao Guan's family, so I will naturally not fall into the trap!"
"Then if Song Jiang accepts the imperial court's recruitment, won't the high officials also have to follow?"
"That's different. Song Gongming wanted to devote himself wholeheartedly to the court, so there is no need for me. He can just stay in Liangshanshuibo and look after the house!"
Seeing what Chao Gai wanted to say, the senior official smiled and said: "I am not the same as the King of Heaven. The King of Heaven is the nominal leader of Liangshan. If he does not give up his throne..."
The following words were not spoken, but the chill in his tone was already quite obvious.
"I do want to!"
Chao Gai was a little uninterested and said helplessly: "I am not interested in these intrigues. I just want to live a free life with like-minded brothers, but where can I retreat?"
This is not false. Although Chao Gai became the leader of Liangshan, his family and relatives still stayed in Dongxi Village. Even the position of Du Baozheng was in the hands of the Chao family. Obviously, this one was reserved for him.
The way back.
Otherwise, with Chao Gai's family background, even if it is not as good as Zhujiazhuang, it will not be too far behind.
At least, it won’t be a problem to attract thousands of young people!
With thousands of young people as his confidants, the days in Liangshan will not be so frustrating.
To put it bluntly, the reason why Song Jiang was able to quickly come from behind and turn Chao Gai into a veritable decoration was because he lacked reliable confidants.
"If the King of Heaven trusts me, I can point out a way out!"
Seeing the dull atmosphere, Chai Daguan said with a smile: "I know an island not far from the mainland, with a radius of enough for a county. If it is developed properly, it will not be a problem to house fifty thousand people, and hundreds of thousands of acres can be reclaimed."
arable land!"
Chao Gai suddenly opened his eyes wide and said in surprise: "There is such a place, the high officials are not deceiving Yu, are they?"
"How can it be?"
Chai Daguan said with a smile: "It's just that the island is relatively deserted, and it still needs the King of Heaven to lead people to develop it himself!"
"There's nothing wrong with that!"
Chao Gai said indifferently: "I have been dealing with the fields for decades. As long as the environment is not too bad and the manpower is sufficient, I will just work harder for a few more years!"
"That's good!"
Chai Daguan smiled and said: "That island is only a few hundred miles away from Dengzhou. If the ship is fast enough, it will take about a day or two!"
"Want to go to sea from Dengzhou?"
"That's natural. If it wasn't a big island in the sea, how could it not have been developed yet?"
"Then what happens after that is up to the officials!"
…
Chai Daguan was relieved. It would be best if he could convince Chao Gai.
Although he was not optimistic about the future development of Liangshan, he never thought about watching the civil strife in Liangshan, especially a bad incident like the big leader being killed by the second leader.
Although the original description of Water Margin is relatively subtle, Chao Gai's death is indeed full of mysteries.
To say that Song Jiang did nothing, even a fool would not believe it.
By the time Chao Gai attacked Zengtou City, Song Jiang's strength had expanded considerably. It can be said that most of Liangshan's forces were under his control.
At this time, Chao Gai, the big leader, was a bit of an eyesore...
Even if Song Jiang had no intention of killing, his gang of lawless henchmen would still look for opportunities to kill Chao Gai.
Although Chai Daguan rarely visited the front camp, he also noticed some bad atmosphere, so he took advantage of Chao Gai's initiative to persuade him.
If Chao Gai had not stopped, he would not have actively participated.
However, Chao Gai behaved quite straightforwardly, and Chai Daguan would not let him die in an unknown manner. They had to give this Liangshan leader who had no big ambitions a chance to live the rest of his life in peace.
Just at this time, Song Jiang led a large group of troops and rushed back to Liangshan from Huayin.
Jiuwen Long Shi Jin, Jumping Stream Tiger Yang Chun, White Flower Snake Chen Da and Shenji Military Advisor Zhu Wu joined Liangshan, so it was naturally exciting again.
It was rare for Chai Daguan to show up from the rear camp. After the welcome banquet, he directly found Song Jiang with a rosy face.
"What, how could Brother Tianwang have such thoughts?"
After listening to Chai Daguan's story, Song Jiang was shocked and said in disbelief.
Chai Daguan said disapprovingly: "King Chao Tian's temperament is quite ruthless, and he has no intention of accepting the imperial court's recruitment!"
"As more and more imperial officers come up the mountain, recruitment will gradually become the mainstream on the mountain, and conflicts will inevitably break out!"
"King Chao Tian didn't want internal strife in Liangshan, so he proposed the idea of abdicating the throne in favor of someone more worthy. It's not difficult to understand!"
Having said this, he smiled and said leisurely: "Besides, in Liangshan right now, is it possible for King Chao Tian to continue to sit on the top spot?"
Song Jiang was not embarrassed, but he was also relieved...
To say that he wanted to kill Chao Gai is simply nonsense.
After all, he is not a real hero, and his long-term friendship with Chao Gai is not over. It is just that the current situation has forced the two of them to be on opposite sides.
Zhiduoxing Wu Yong, who was sitting next to him, was the first to come to his senses and said with a smile: "I'm afraid this matter was not persuaded by the high officials!"
"nature!"
Chai Daguan did not deny it and said leisurely: "King Chao Tian is not a fool after all. He has already realized his current situation. Because of brotherly loyalty and does not want to cause civil strife, he is the only one to abdicate on his own initiative!"
Wu Yong asked seriously: "Are there any conditions?"
This guy is really a ruthless villain!
To be honest, Chao Gai's contribution to being able to sneak into the position of mastermind in Liangshan is not small.
But now, once our positions are different, we will abandon our former allies without blinking an eye.
I don't know how Song Jiang is feeling, but Chai Daguan is as calm as a wave. Anyway, the opportunities for him and Wu Yong to deal with will become less and less in the future.
"A certain person knows that there is a large island off the coast of Dengzhou, covering an area large enough to cover a county!"
Chai Daguan smiled and said: "After King Chao Tian found out, he intended to move to the island and settle down, and he will never pay attention to Liangshan again!"
this……
Song Jiang's mood was quite complicated, but he finally agreed to Chao Gai's conditions.
"Your Highness, since King Chao Tian is willing to move to the island, this matter will be presided over by Your Excellency!"
Song Jiang was quite generous and said with a smile: "If you need anything, just ask for it. Those who can give it will not be stingy!"
"This time, I'm afraid we will need the full cooperation of Liang Shanshui's army!"
Official Chai was not polite and said directly: "In addition, several heroes from Dengzhou have also been temporarily seconded to help. The logistics department will also direct most of its resources to that side. Gong, brother Gongming, please don't complain.
!”
…
After Mr. Chai left, Song Jiang sighed for a while and said leisurely: "Pedant, do you think we have gone too far?"
Wu Yong said disapprovingly: "Brother, there is no need to feel guilty. Things have developed to the present situation. King Chao Tian has become a roadblock for us to move forward. It is a good thing that he took the initiative to give in!"
"But I always feel that something is not right in my heart!"
"Brother, there is no need to care too much, but isn't the prestige of Mr. Chai a little too high?"
"Pedantry is..."
Song Jiang was startled and said hurriedly: "Don't do this nonsense!"
"Do not worry!"
Wu Yong shook his head and said: "If you are not sure, I will not act rashly!"
Having said this, he paused and continued: "I just feel that the senior official and my brother are not of the same mind!"
"The high officials do not agree with Zhao'an!"
Song Jiang smiled bitterly and said: "The senior officials have made their thoughts clear in their minds long ago in order to avoid conflicts in the future!"
Seeing Wu Yong's suspicious look, he smiled bitterly and said: "No need to doubt it, the officials act openly and aboveboard. There is no need to deceive you and me. They don't want to continue to be monitored by Zhao Guan's family, and they will not stop our actions!"
"Then what does he want?"
"I don't want anything, I just hint that if the main force of Liangshan's front camp leaves the mountain, he wants to stay in Liangshan and does not want to come out to serve the imperial court!"
"This is too good to be true. Could it be that the imperial court would agree to such a condition, and would my brother agree?"
Song Jiang smiled bitterly and said: "If our plan really succeeds and Chai Daguan is not willing to follow us, then don't force it!"
Wu Yong opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end nothing came out.
He thought of the back camp, which was run like an iron barrel. Chai Daguan was not a fool like Chao Gai. If he wanted to resort to unscrupulous means to target him, he would be humiliating himself.
Even if Wu Yong wants to play tricks, he still has to weigh the consequences...
He was not a fool, so he couldn't see that Chai Daguan had a distant attitude towards him, and even if he tried to play tricks, he would not be trusted.
He actually has some ideas about Chai Daguan, and wants to make use of his background and certain unique advantages to do things.
It's a pity that Chai Daguan made his attitude clear as soon as he went up the mountain and directly took charge of the rear camp to deal with logistics.
What's more, I didn't expect that Chai Daguan was so capable that he not only managed the rear camp in an orderly manner, but also made it monolithic.
At the moment, even Song Jiang can't easily offend this person, let alone Wu Yong, who is just seeking the master position.
…
Official Chai didn't know what Wu Yong was thinking, and even if he knew, he would just curl his lips to show disdain.
If he were the mastermind of a normal force, his reputation and prestige would definitely not be a joke, and at least the leaders below would be convinced.
Can Wu use it...
After using too many underhanded tactics, many Liangshan leaders did not have much favorable impressions of him, so there was no need to expect respect from him.
If given a chance, some of the leaders who had been tricked by him might even sap him.
Under such circumstances, apart from Song Jiang's close confidants who were polite and obedient to him, Wu Yong's prestige in Liangshan was really average.
If he didn't pull Song Jiang's skin, he wouldn't be able to command the leaders at all.
This is also the reason why Wu Yong and Song Jiang have always been inseparable, and Wu Yong has no way of speaking on his own.
If he wants to send officials to Chai, it will be useless if he doesn't have a valid reason.
Chai Daguan didn't care about anything else. At this time, he directly greeted a group of leaders from Dengzhou. At the same time, he mobilized the troops from the rear camp and ran directly to Dengzhou to attack the front station.
First find a way to establish a foothold in the coastal villages and towns, and then use some means to obtain sea-going ships. After recruiting enough crew members, they will tentatively accumulate navigation experience in coastal waters.
It is said that there is a navy command camp here in Dengzhou, and its boss commander is Hu Yantong, a member of Hu Yanzhuo's tribe.
This man also has some skills. After Chai joins his men and horses and joins him, he can sail in the coastal waters of Dengzhou with arrogance.
After knowing the general direction, it only took half a month for the dispatched ship to find the location of Jeju Island.
That's right, the retirement home Chao Gai found for Chao Gai was exactly the Jeju Island that must be mentioned in many Water Margin novels.
Although Chaodaeguan had never been there in the modern world, he knew the approximate location of Jeju Island. He also searched along the coastline of the Korean Peninsula, so it was not unusual to find it quickly.
However, large-scale sea transportation of population and materials will become a troublesome matter that consumes time and energy.
Fortunately, Chai Daguan didn't think it was too troublesome, and he was still interested in rushing to Dengzhou with Chao Gai to plan various planning and management details after taking over Jeju Island.
Chao Gai obviously didn't expect Chai Daguanren to be so fast, but it could be seen that he was in a very good mood...
