Water Margin people

Chapter 189

"You mean, let them send weapons in?"

Sun Lei immediately understood what Pei Xuan meant. The treasury of the Jeju government must have weapons and armor. This time, they will be fully armed when they come to suppress Liangshan. This is to give them away.

"Yes, with the abilities of my brother and all the leaders, even capturing the entire Jeju army is no problem. This time, Jeju will send at least [-] troops. Those armors, crossbows, weapons, and ships are all given away!"

Pei Xuan said with a smile, although Liangshan captured a lot of money, food and supplies in the previous attack on Qinghe County, he didn't have any of the most important weapons. None of that gear.

"Great idea! Jeju Prefecture is a timely help!"

Sun Lei clapped his hands and said with a smile, this is really a good idea, it not only destroys the incoming enemies, but also saves a lot of equipment.

Everyone had no more opinions, even Ruan Xiaoqi nodded frequently.

"Magistrate Pei, I misunderstood you, and Xiaoqi is here to apologize!"

Ruan Xiaoqi bowed to Pei Xuan, because Pei Xuan often sits in the government office to hear cases, and the villagers often call him the county magistrate. Pei Xuan is no longer called the iron face, but now the iron face county magistrate.

"It's all for the community!"

Pei Xuan said with a smile that he didn't like the word Shanzhai, saying that Shanzhai always made him feel like a thief, but the club was different, it sounded like a congenial group.

"Then let's do this. Let the villages and towns along the road give way, and don't conflict with the Jeju army. If the Jeju army does evil, they will be patient first. I will uphold justice in Liangshan and won't let the villagers suffer!"

Sun Lei looked at Pei Xuan and said, the Jeju army must have looted along the way. If it was just money and food and houses, then follow-up remedies would be enough. But if the dead are dead, the dead will not survive even if they kill the evildoers, so It is best not to conflict.

"My brother's benevolence, righteousness and charity are so loud that the villagers are all grateful to my brother. It only needs to be ordered."

Pei Xuan nodded.

……

Jeju Province.

"Enxiang, are we really going to suppress Liang Shanbo?"

Jeju regiment trainer Huang An looked at the magistrate and asked.

"Isn't it true? Is it false? Tokyo has come to order, how dare you disobey? These heinous thieves are now entrenched in our Jeju territory, burning, killing, looting, attacking the county government, and privately setting up courts. They have the intention of rebelling, you One of us is a regiment of the state capital, and the other is to arrest the envoys, and it is our duty to exterminate the bandits."

The magistrate looked at Huang An, the regiment, and He Tao, the arresting envoy, and said that the Liangshan bandits have become more and more powerful these days. They not only broke Qinghe County, but also set up private courts by the waterside. have to be revoked.

"Understood dare not!"

The two saluted quickly.

"It's good for you to know that Liangshan Sun Lei and Gao Taiwei have a sworn feud, and now the bandits are getting stronger and stronger. This suppression of bandits is not only our duty, but also for Gao Taiwei."

The magistrate looked at Huang An and He Tao and said, this time they can't help but not go, Gao Qiu is a narrow-minded person, if the suppression of thieves is not good, the emperor may have taken revenge on them before the emperor issued an order to punish them.

The prefect of Jeju is also suffering. Qinghe County under the rule of Enzhou was broken by Liangshan bandits. What has he to do with Jeju?Even if this incident shakes all the roads in Hebei and Shandong, it should be all the roads to attack together, why did it become a matter of his Jeju prefecture?But Tokyo didn't care about these, and directly ordered him to reprimand him, ordering him to wipe out the bandits in the country immediately.

"Enxiang, the bandits must be suppressed, but there are only [-] soldiers in Jeju, and the bandits in Liangshan have already become popular. I am afraid that they can only be wiped out if they are brought along! The former Yuncheng and Qinghe counties suffered from insufficient troops. "

Huang An looked at the magistrate and said, he doesn't want to go to Liangshanbo, but his fate is inevitable, so he can only bite the bullet and go on, but for safety's sake, he should bring more troops.

"What if you take all of Jeju Prefecture? You take two thousand and leave one thousand to defend the city!"

The prefect shook his head.

"Enxiang, according to the report, there are more than [-] bandits in Liangshan, and it may be too much for me to bring only [-] troops!"

He Tao, the arresting envoy, said that he is the arresting envoy of Jeju, who is responsible for inspections and arrests. He has some understanding of the situation in Liangshanbo. All the berths were controlled, and fewer people went to die.

"What's the point of mere thieves? There are thieves all over the place, and none of them can't be wiped out. If you can't be wiped out, wait for the assassins to send you out!"

Seeing that the two shied away, the magistrate immediately started to scare. This time the order came from the Sanya in Tokyo.

"I'm so kind, I'm really afraid of being short-staffed!"

Huang An and He Tao could only kneel down and beg for each other.

"The manpower is only two thousand, and the equipment in the treasury can be used at will. It's up to you how much the officials of the surrounding counties can mobilize, so let's do it!"

Seeing the two of them like this, the magistrate felt helpless, so he could only leave without saying a word.

"Huang Tuanlian, how many people can be transferred?"

Seeing that the magistrate had left, He Tao looked at Huang An and asked.

"Transfer people? Who are you to transfer? Jeju has four counties of Juye, Yuncheng, Rencheng, and Jinxiang. Each county has no more than a hundred servants. How to transfer? What's more, after the failure of Yuncheng to suppress bandits last time, how can we transfer them now?" moving?"

Huang An shook his head and said, the county government has only servants and no regular army, so it is impossible to send troops here.

"Then what should we do? The bandits in Liangshan are not ordinary now, and the villages and towns around Shuibo all want him. I received news that many people around Shuibo have voted for Liangshan. Now there are probably more than 3000 people!"

He Tao sighed.

"What? 3000 people? Isn't it two thousand!"

Huang An was shocked, this was much more than expected.

"This is just gossip, and I don't know if it's true or not. How can I report it to the magistrate?"

He Tao shook his head and said, as an arrest envoy, he was responsible for arresting and exterminating the thieves. After the Liangshan bandits rose up, his inspectors have been paying attention to Liangshan's developments, but they haven't really gotten close to the water.

"This is difficult. The bandits are vicious. Most of them are locals. They are good at using the terrain. It is so easy to kill the eight hundred miles of water."

Huang An also felt worried.

"Huang Tuanlian, there are dozens of official ships in the Jeju government, a cavalry commander has [-] good horses, [-] bows and crossbows in the treasury, and dozens of bed crossbows. Why don't we go directly by the waterway and rely on them?" Squeeze the water with a strong boat."

He Tao said, since there may not be an advantage in numbers, it must be supplemented by equipment.

"This is a good plan. The Liangshan grassroots bandits are just mobs with simple equipment. They are no match for our officers and soldiers. As long as we bring all the equipment, the bandits will have no choice but to run away!"

Huang An was overjoyed when he heard this. Combat is not just about numbers, equipment is also very important. A 100 officers and troops with standard equipment and armor can fight three or four hundred bandits. The grass stockade is not a problem.
