Chai Zhong withdrew from Chai Mansion and did not dare to stay in the city.

When he came out of the city, he found a secluded place, sat down and pondered how he could save his master.

Now it is the governor of Gaotang Prefecture who wants to harm his master, and it is obviously impossible to report to the official. Stopping the Danshu iron coupon, I'm afraid it can only be delayed for a few days, and Gao Lian is in a hurry, so he still has to start.

"Then how can you save your master?"

Chai Zhong patted his head fiercely and pondered.

By the way, go find Liangshan. The master has been kind to Lin Chong, Wu Song and others, and the little overlord Chao Yong has also been to the village before, and now the Liangshan soldiers are strong and strong, if they can invite the Liangshan soldiers and horses to come, they will definitely be able to save the master.

Chai Zhong thought for a while, and suddenly thought of Liangshan, and he didn't dare to delay, so he pulled his feet and came to Liangshan.

rushed all the way, and within a few days, Chai Zhong arrived outside the Liangshan Water.

Nowadays, the four hotels in Liangshan lead the world's heroes to the mountain, and everyone knows it on the rivers and lakes.

Chai Zhong came to the north hotel, but it was Sun Erniang and his wife who followed Chai Zhong, I heard that Chai Daguan was in danger, and the two did not dare to slack off, Zhang Qing stayed in the hotel, and Sun Erniang immediately led Chai Zhong to Liangshan.

All the leaders gathered, and Chai Zhong told the matter of Gaotang Prefecture one by one.

When Lin Chong heard that it was the Gao Yu brothers who harmed people, he couldn't help but say angrily: "It's the Gao family's gang of corrupt people who hurt people, and the Chai officials have Danshu iron coupons, and they all dare to harm them, and I'm afraid that even more ordinary people will be ruined by them." He also asked the king of heaven to send troops to do the right thing for heaven and eliminate harm for the people. ”

After Wu Song defected to Chai Jin, although he was a little strange for being contemptuous of himself later, he also got up and said at this time: "Chai Daguan is kind to me, Chai Daguan is righteous and squandering money, and he has a lot of prestige in the rivers and lakes, and he should be saved by both public and private." ”

Chao Gai nodded and said: "I have also heard of the reputation of Chai Daguan, and now that he is in danger, how can we sit idly by." I personally led the troops down the mountain, and the officials who rescued firewood went up the mountain. ”

When Chao Yong heard this, he hurriedly said: "Father just sits in the cottage, or the child will go on his behalf." ”

Chao Gai was also very quiet, shook his head and said: "You have also gone down the mountain a lot, and you just came back from Jiangzhou, so you will rest on the mountain for a while, this time I will personally lead the troops down the mountain." Brother Zhu Gui, what can you explore about the situation in Gaotang Prefecture? ”

At Chao Yong's suggestion, Shanzhai has been inquiring about the intelligence of the surrounding state capitals.

When Jiang Jing didn't go up the mountain, Chao Gai heard Li Ying complain that Zhu Gui spent a lot of cottage gold and silver, but he also knew that Zhu Gui had collected a lot of information and came back.

Chao Gai has also been reading military books recently, as the so-called "knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent, one cannot be defeated in a hundred battles", so it is natural to understand the situation of the other party before it can be dealt with.

Zhu Gui took out a booklet, which recorded a brief situation of the surrounding state capitals, looked at it, and said: "I still need to go back to inquire about the specific information, so I will talk about the brief situation first." This Gaotang Prefecture city is not big, but it is a rich place with many people. After Gao Lian took office, Gao Yu allocated him a lot of armor, which Gao Lian also has some ability to train soldiers, and the combat strength of Gao Tang Prefecture's soldiers may not lose to the forbidden army. Moreover, there was a famine in Hebei this spring, and the displaced people were everywhere, so Gao Lian took the opportunity to recruit 2,000 soldiers. The original four commanders, he did not eat empty salaries, and now there are 4,000 soldiers in Gaotang Prefecture. ”

When Wu Yong heard this, he couldn't help but wonder: "Although our dynasty has the practice of recruiting displaced people as soldiers, most of them still recruit displaced people to work. This Gao Lian actually raised 2,000 soldiers and horses at a time, and he was not afraid of ginseng, and he was ready to support the army and make trouble? ”

Zhu Gui shook his head and said: "I don't know this, but this Gao Lian is really in charge of the army and the people." Unlike the general governor, he was only a nominal commander, and he spent more time in the barracks than the yamen. ”

Chao Gai saw that everyone looked puzzled, so he said: "It doesn't matter why he recruited so many soldiers and horses, even if there are more, he can't stop my Liangshan army." ”

Lu Zhishen smiled and said, "What the Heavenly King said is, then ask the Heavenly King to give an order." ”

Chao Gai looked at everyone and said, "Then I asked Wu Yong, Lin Chong, Dong Ping, Xu Ning, Liu Tang, Luan Tingyu, Li Ying, Hu Yanzhuo, Han Tao, Peng Xi, Qin Ming, Huang Xin, Hua Rong, Mu Hong, Mu Chun, Li Kui, Jiao Ting, Xiang Chong, Li Gon, Ou Peng, Ma Lin, Lu Zhishen, Wu Song, Yang Zhi, and Shi Yong Twenty-five leaders to follow me down the mountain, and then order 10,000 regular troops and 2,000 deputy troops." ”

Jiao Ting, who has no face, was recently detected by copycat spies and led up the mountain. His ancestral sumo wrestling method easily knocked over five of his own soldiers and became the leader.

When Hu Yanzhuo heard this, he said: "After the soldiers and horses have exceeded 10,000, the army will be mighty, and it must be divided into three armies, each with a leader to supervise and restrain it, so as not to mess up the regulations, and in case of an attack, you can also deal with it yourself." ”

After Liangshan's power grew, although Chao Gai also read some military books, it was inevitable that there would be some mistakes and omissions when he really commanded, and he nodded when he heard the words: "General Huyan is reasonable. Then Lu Zhishen, Wu Song, Yang Zhi, Dong Ping, Qin Ming, Huang Xin, Li Kui, Jiao Ting, Xiang Chong, and Li Gon were invited to lead 3,000 infantry, 1,000 horse troops as the vanguard, and Master Lu as the vanguard general. ”

Lu Zhishen and a group of generals who were ordered got up one after another to receive orders.

Chao Gai thought for a while, and then said: "The commander of the Chinese army, Chao Gai, took Wu Yong, Liu Tang, Xu Ning, Hua Rong, Li Ying, Hu Yanzhuo, Han Tao, Peng Xi, Ou Peng, Ma Lin and 5,000 infantry to be the Chinese army. Lin Jiaotou, Luan Tingyu, Mu Hong, Mu Chun, and Shi Yong led a thousand infantry troops to serve as the rear army, escorting grain and grass, and Lin Jiaotou was the general of the rear army. ”

One by one, everyone took the order.

Chao Yong glanced back at the map hanging behind him, frowned, and said: "This trip to Gaotang Prefecture has to pass through Dongchang Mansion, Dongchang Mansion regimental training envoy Zhang Qing is good at flying stones and hitting people, be careful that he sends troops to intercept it." ”

Chao Gai said with a smile: "Who in the nearby states and counties doesn't hear of my Liangshan name, if Zhang Qing dares to send troops, he will just give the brothers more credit." I heard that Dongchang Mansion is rich, and my cottage money and grain are also in short supply, so I happened to take Dongchang Mansion money and grain up the mountain. ”

Chao Yong also knew that many of the leaders of Chao Gai's line did have the courage of ten thousand people, and it was no wonder that Chao Gai was confident, but Chao Yong knew more about Zhang Qingfeishi's power, but it was not good to say anything in front of everyone, so as not to let everyone feel that they were underestimated.

Chao Yong thought for a while, and said: "Then I will wish my father and the leaders success, but I am afraid that by the time the army arrives, Gao Lian has already earned the Danshu iron coupon, and the surname of Chai Daguan will be ruined." It's better to let Shi Qian rush to Gaotang Prefecture first, and post some posts in the city to deter Gao Lian. ”

Chao Gai didn't refuse this time, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll ask the leader of Shiqian to go too." ”

When Chao Gai asked everyone to order troops, Chao Yong found Lin Chong again and asked him to be careful of Zhang Qing.

Everyone lit up the soldiers and horses, and the Sizhai Navy sent large and small ships to transport the army out of berth.
