The main gate of Zhujiazhuang opened, Sun Tu led his subordinates to enter, and the first thing he saw was Zhu Biao, who was covered in blood and had a very happy face, and he had already bowed deeply to him at this time: "Zhu Biao on behalf of me, hundreds of men and women in Zhujiazhuang thank Sun Dujian for his great grace in rescuing him." ”

Seeing this, Sun Tu hurriedly took two steps and helped him up: "Zhu Sanlang doesn't have to be like this, since I am an official of the imperial court, I have the responsibility of protecting the territory and the people, and this is all within my and the soldiers' share." ”

At this time, other people in Zhujiazhuang also greeted them, and they all greeted Sun Tu and thanked them, and even Zhu Cheng, who was hiding in the back before, also rushed out tremblingly, and thanked them excitedly. This time, Zhujiazhuang was indeed on the verge of being wiped out, and Sun Tu led the army to save their lives, otherwise they could not express their gratitude.

Sun Tu was polite again, then he looked at the people in front of him, and just wanted to ask about the identity of everyone, Zhu Biao had already introduced him: "This is my father, this is the eldest brother Zhu Long, the second brother Zhu Hu, this is my Zhujiazhuang's head Luan Tingyu......" As he introduced each person, Sun Tu greeted him again, and at the same time observed the appearance of the other party, and nodded secretly.

After each of them revealed their identities, Sun Tu smiled again and said: "Don't look at Zhujiazhuang, it is not big, but it is really the place where the earth spirit is a masterpiece, no wonder I dare to set up a village under the nose of Liangshan Bo thief for many years, which really makes me deeply admire." This is not a polite remark, he swept over at a glance, and he could see that the three brothers of the Zhu family were all extraordinary, Zhu Long was calm and sophisticated, Zhu Hu was domineering and fierce, and Zhu Biao was even more heroic......

And that Luan Tingyu, although he looks ordinary, his complexion is still a little yellow, but he is restrained and restrained, and his attainments in martial arts are obviously not low. Moreover, unlike Zhu Biao's embarrassed appearance covered in blood after the battle, there were almost no traces of blood on his body, obviously he had always had spare strength, and his martial arts were only above the others.

After a few kind words, Sun Tu quickly entered the role and asked loudly, "How many people are available in your Zhujiazhuang now?" How many casualties were there before? As soon as they met, he naturally questioned him as a landlord general.

His natural performance made the Zhu family stunned for a moment, and then Zhu Biao spoke: "There are a total of 1,000 people in my village, but there are only 400 people who can really fight, and there have been more than 100 casualties before. If it weren't for Sun Dujian leading the army to arrive, I'm afraid of ......"

"In this way, we can only use about 500 troops now." Sun Tu swept around and found that many of the young people in Zhujiazhuang were injured, and this combat power naturally had to be discounted again, making his brows frown slightly, the situation was indeed not optimistic.

But at this time, it was not the time to think about this, he immediately turned around and ordered: "Lin Chong, you take a hundred people to the east, Luda, you and Wu Song take people to the west, Yang Zhi, you take people to the south, and replace the others in Zhujiazhuang to heal and recuperate first." ”

"Yes!" The generals who were named by him did not have a word, and immediately scattered with soldiers and horses, and the Qingzhou army that had only entered the village in a moment was dispersed to three high walls, and the people who looked at Zhujiazhuang were stunned for a while, but under Sun Tu's momentum, no one questioned it. In the final analysis, it was Sun Tu's identity as the imperial court eunuch who played a role in deterring the audience, and without too much explanation and discussion, he directly took over the defense of the entire Zhujiazhuang.

Only Zhu Biao, after hesitating for a moment, asked with some concern: "Sun Dujian, these brothers have come from Qingzhou with hard work, is it too hard for them to defend the city as soon as they enter the village at this time?" ”

"It doesn't matter, this hard work is not difficult for my Qingzhou Army." Sun Tu waved his hand disappreciatively, he still has this self-confidence, isn't this the result of half a year's hard work? What's more, this time he came with the most elite group in the Qingzhou Army, so naturally it would not be a problem.

Zhu Long had already reacted at this time, and asked out loud: "Sun Dujian, dare to ask when the main force of the Qingzhou Army under your command will arrive?" I think as soon as they arrive, the siege of Zhujiazhuang will be completely solved. ”

"There is no follow-up main force, these three hundred people are all the people I rescued in Zhujiazhuang." Sun Tu gave an answer that shocked everyone. There were only so many skis in Qingzhou that day, not only because they might not be able to catch up in time, but also because of the limited number of usable woods hoarded in the city, these more than 300 pairs of skis were already the limit.

"This ...... There are more than 1,000 Liang Mountain Bandits outside the village, and they can continue to transfer troops from the cottage. Zhu Long said with an uneasy face. Sun Tu smiled: "There are not many soldiers, but fine, I believe that only my three hundred Qingzhou troops will be enough to defend this village." Moreover, at the same time that I was here, I had already sent someone to Jeju City, and maybe there would be an army to rescue me. The top priority now is to prevent the thieves from attacking again, or let everyone rest and heal their wounds first. ”

"Sun Dujian, there is a matter that I can't solve, please solve your doubts." Luan Tingyu, who had been silent, suddenly looked at him and said, "Just now, when the official army entered the Ecstasy Forest in front, there was no delay in the slightest, but how did this happen?" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone present also showed suspicion and vigilance. Yes, they wish Jiazhuang to be able to stand on Dulonggang for a long time, and have the confidence to dare to be enemies with the people of Liangshanbo, relying on the ecstasy forest outside the village that can block thousands of troops.

The reason why we are in such a dangerous situation today is because the people of Liangshanbo have found a way to solve it. And now, the Qingzhou army led by Sun Tu can actually pass through the forest unscathed, which is too unexpected for them, and it makes them feel too threatened. This point has not yet been reacted to by others because they have just come out of danger, but Luan Tingyu has already thought of it and brought it up at this time.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Sun Tu was not nervous, but just glanced at Zhu Biao: "This is a lot of Zhu Saburo's previous reminder." In Qingdian Town that day, when you were drunk, you mentioned to me the power of the Lost Soul Forest outside Zhujiazhuang, and also said that there was a way to crack it, so I could lead the army to pass through easily. ”

"Huh?" At this time, everyone's strange eyes all fell on Zhu Biao, Zhu Biao was stunned, he didn't know what to say, did he really tell Sun Tu about such a secret related to the survival of the entire Zhujiazhuang? Why don't you remember anything about it?

However, he still believed that Sun Tu had no ill intentions towards his family, and at this time, in order not to give birth to more things, he could only admit the matter, nodded and said: "Yes, when I was drunk that day, I didn't expect Sun Dujian to really listen to it." "This doubt is self-solved, and it is not good for others to blame him in front of Sun Tu for the time being, after all, if Sun Tu didn't come to save him this time, Zhujiazhuang would be over.

Sun Tu hurriedly changed the topic at this time: "Okay, everything will be done according to what I say, if you have a heart, follow me to the high place to see the movements of the Liangshan bandits, so as to prepare for the next battle." ”

Everyone didn't say much, so they accompanied Sun Tu to the high platform in front of them and looked towards the Liangshan military camp outside the forest. At this time, the troops and horses had been re-gathered there, but there was no intention of attacking again. Sun Tu also understood that they had made this decision, after all, they had almost exhausted their sharp energy just now, and with the strong reinforcements of Zhujiazhuang, it was much more difficult to attack again than before.

This is indeed the case, after the whole army returned to the barracks, many Liangshan leaders still wanted to attack Zhujiazhuang again with resentment, but they were forcibly pressed down by Song Jiang: "Today's battle has been consumed too much, and it is only to increase the damage if you continue to fight, it is really not worth it." It's better to wait for us to rest and recuperate, and then compete with the Qingzhou officials and soldiers tomorrow. ”

"Brother, the younger brothers are just worried that if the time drags on for a long time, more officers and soldiers will come to the rescue of Zhujiazhuang...... someone said worriedly.

"Actually, I guessed that Sun Tu from Qingzhou might come to help, but I didn't expect him to come so quickly. But the officers and troops of other state capitals do not have such strong combat power and such courage as the Qingzhou Army. Moreover, the reason why they were able to come so quickly was also due to the strange method of marching, which should not be owned by the officials and soldiers, so there was no need to worry too much. Try it again tomorrow, I also want to see how strong the Qingzhou army is that can destroy Erlong Mountain! ”

Now that Song Jiang has made up his mind, the brothers can only obey the order. In addition, everyone did consume a lot of money in the series of battles just now, and many people were injured a lot, so they went back to bandage and rest at this time, waiting for the next day to fight again. Only Song Jiang, after some hesitation, called a personal soldier and whispered a few words, and soon after, this personal soldier had quietly left the camp and headed for Liangshan.

Sun Tu and the others in Zhujiazhuang finally calmed down after seeing that the Liangshan camp had regained calm, at least there should be no more fighting today. It was Sun Tu, but at this time, after seeing the situation on Dulonggang, he frowned: "The two Zhuangzi in the southwest and northwest should be Hujiazhuang and Lijiazhuang, right?" Why did Zhujiazhuang fall into a desperate situation just now but didn't see them rushing to help? ”

"Hmph, then Li Ying may have formed an alliance with the Liangshan bandits." Speaking of this matter, Zhu Biao is belly full of anger, most of the danger encountered in Zhujiazhuang today was caused by Li Ying's betrayal, so he told the story of Liangshan sending people to go yesterday.

Sun Tu's face was also cold when he heard this: "Li Ying?" I made a note of it. "He can understand that people are selfish, but if he really colludes with thieves in disregard of the alliance for self-preservation, and even speaks out the weaknesses of his allies, Li Ying is really too despicable and shameless.

"As for Hujiazhuang...... Zhu Biao's expression was a little complicated: "They are the weakest, and there are only a hundred people available, I'm afraid they don't dare to send troops easily......"

As he spoke, several people showed surprise, because Hujiazhuang, which was originally closed at the main gate, suddenly opened a gap, and one person and one horse rushed out, but they came towards Zhujiazhuang. Although it is not so real from a distance of several miles, the fiery red clothes and slender waist make Sun Tu feel very familiar, it is the third mother of the Hu family, Hu Rong ran out!
