Lord: Start with a book of Water Margin

Chapter 102 Duan Song (Death) does not intermarry

Zhao Zhen didn't have a clever plan. Zhao Zhen rewarded the visitor with wine and food, and asked him to speak. He only said that he was also thinking hard about how to catch the thief, and he had no idea for a while, so he sent the visitor away first.

That night, Zhao Zhen, Chao Gai and Song Wan were drinking in the front hall and discussing ways to get rid of thieves. Both Chao Gai and Song Wan were not wise men. They discussed for half a night and came up with no plan. At the end of the night, Chao Gai and Song Wan both rested in the wing room in the front yard, while Zhao Zhen went to the backyard.

Zhao Zhen seemed relaxed these past few days, but in fact he spent them in tension, always tense. That night, Zhao Zhen naturally had a lot of fun at Jin Cuilian's place.

When he woke up the next day, Zhao Zhen felt relaxed.

After practicing martial arts step by step and having breakfast, Zhao Zhen, Chao Gai, and Song Wan rode to the misty world to meet Gao Hu.

The entrance to the mist world is now guarded by Huang Yang and his team of Roman heavy infantry. Zhao Zhen greeted Huang Yang. The two met and Zhao Zhen asked: "Brother Huang Yang, how is the mist world now? Is there anyone else coming? ?"

Huang Yang still said coldly: "Many villages saw the pavilion chief occupying the misty world, and they all came here to congratulate him." Zhao Zhen was not surprised when he heard this. After all, there were few people who offered help in the snow, and there were many icings on the cake.

After bidding farewell to Huang Yang, Zhao Zhen and the others entered the misty world. Along the way, many strong men patrolled with swords and guns, looking much more relaxed. Zhao Zhen speculated that the damage caused by the Yuyuan thieves was not serious.

Zhao Zhen and the other three entered the county government office and saw Gao Hu talking with a few middle-aged men. The atmosphere was harmonious. Zhao Zhen came forward to greet them, and Gao Hu introduced them one by one. Everyone exchanged the rituals in a friendly manner. , exchanged famous thorns. Hearing that Zhao Zhen was the new leader of Bailiu Village and helped Gao Hu conquer the mist world, the atmosphere became more harmonious.

After chatting for a while, Gao Hu left everyone in the hall and invited Zhao Zhen to talk in the back hall. Seeing this, everyone politely said goodbye and nodded to Zhao Zhen when they left, and Zhao Zhen responded with a smile.

After sending everyone away, Zhao Zhen looked at Gao Hu, who was full of excitement, and said with a smile: "Looking at the smile on my brother's face, do you think everything will go well in the mist world?"

Gao Hu said: "Hahaha, brother, except for the elm garden, everything has settled down now, and the people in the city are doing well now. From now on, they will produce a lot every year. It's a pity that the only specialty product is persimmons. It will take a long time to restore the old outlook. .”

Zhao Zhen said: "Brother Gao Hu, I do know that there is another specialty in this misty world." Gao Hu said happily: "Brother, please tell me what other specialties there are." Zhao Zhen said: "Isn't this Yuyuan a specialty?"

Gao Hu frowned and said, "Brother, what do you mean?"

Zhao Zhen said: "Brother, this elm tree is full of treasures. Not to mention that elm money and elm leaves can be eaten in disaster years, elm wood is good for furniture and shipbuilding materials. Moreover, felling elm wood can also reduce the size of the elm garden and reduce the scope of rebel activities. , forcing him to submit."

After hearing this, Gao Hu said: "It's a method, but the tunnels are crisscrossed and these thieves are elusive. I'm afraid they won't be able to cut down the wood easily."

After hearing this, Zhao Zhen also frowned and said, "It's true that my younger brother didn't think well. If I can't cut down the trees and fill up the cave, I'm afraid I won't be able to force the thieves to come out. The elm leaves and elm money can satisfy my hunger, and at the same time, there is a big forest. There are a lot of wild animals inside.”

Gao Hu said: "That's true. [Qingtian Palace Wencai], [Songtian King Li Wensheng], [Sweeping King Song Erjiong], [Huntian King Yang Hongsheng], these four misty worlds have been operating for several years now. I heard that these four The terrain is very dangerous, there are more than a thousand caves, and they have circled for two to three hundred miles, but they have not been exterminated yet.

[Huntian King Yang Hongsheng] Originally it was not owned by the Song family, but by the Duan family. It's a pity that the management was poor, the taxes and corvees were too heavy, and the oppression was too heavy. The people colluded with the Manjiadong bandits, killed the guards, and broke out of the fog. The incident happened suddenly and they were unprepared, causing many killings. It all depended on the Song family to pacify it at that time. Afterwards, the Mist World also belonged to the Song family. The Duan family also asked for it, but the Song family refused. To this day, the Duan and Song Dynasties of Gao State do not intermarry.

These four foggy worlds have been operating for a long time, but the resistance forces have not been wiped out. There are many precautions in Yuyuan. "

After hearing this, Zhao Zhen gained another understanding of the misty world.

Zhao Zhen asked: "Brother, Guang Hui and Ruan Xiaoqi will return to my fantasy world in a few days. Will there be any generals in the mist world?"

Gao Hu said: "I would also like to thank you for your help, brother. Now I have a certain reputation in the royal family. In the past few days, I have selected a few who are good at fighting and will be stationed in this misty world. Then my two generals can leave." . Then recruit some rural soldiers from the young men to garrison, and these people will become my subjects in the future. If I run it well, my branch will have a foothold. "

Zhao Zhen said: "It's okay if I don't miss my brother's business. Brother, I am short-sighted and I have something to ask my brother." Gao Hu said: "Brother, it doesn't matter if you say it."

Zhao Zhen said: "Last time I heard what my brother said, heroes like Guang Hui and Ruan Xiaoqi need to perform military service when they come to the main world. I don't know what the regulations are?"

Gao Hu said: "It's simple. You just need to register in the village. If there is a war or another sign, you don't need to be stationed in the military camp on weekdays. The six people you brought this time to participate in the battle in the foggy world can be regarded as military service. They have already It’s on record. These six people will travel to and from the main world within three years and no longer need to perform military service.”

After hearing this, Zhao Zhen breathed a sigh of relief and asked again: "If that's the case, doesn't it mean that if you don't register, the government won't know that you don't have to perform military service?"

Gao Hu said: "That's true, but one thing is that summoning these heroes requires luck. Once summoned, they will definitely be useful. Generally speaking, they will be used in battles. As long as they are taken action, the government will definitely know."

Zhao Zhen thought about it, and that was true.

At noon, Gao Hu hosted a banquet for Zhao Zhen, Guang Hui, Ruan Xiaoqi, Chao Gai and Song Wan, with Huang Yang as his companion. Because Guang Hui, Ruan Xiaoqi, and Huang Yang were stationed in the army and were not good at drinking, the seven of them only ate some meat and vegetables without drinking.

After a while, several people had dinner. Zhao Zhen exchanged a few words with Guang Hui and Ruan Xiaoqi, said goodbye to Gao Hu, and returned to Bailiu Village with Chao Gai and Song Wan.

After settling the two people, Zhao Zhen picked up Jin Cuilian and sent someone to drive a carriage. Zhao Zhen rode a horse and went to Zhao Jin's place in the city together.

Zhao Zhen led Jin Cuilian to visit his parents, brothers and sister-in-law one by one. Everyone praised Zhao Zhen for his discernment. Jin Cuilian listened and blushed with joy.

After talking about the conversation, Li E, Miao Ying, and Zou Yulan mostly asked questions, and Jin Cuilian answered.

Zhao Zhen listened awkwardly and told Zhao Jin to ask someone to invite Zhao Xiang back home.

The father and son first went to the courtyard to compete for a while. Although Zhao Jin had already reached the second level, it was a pity that he was not on the fighting side. His martial arts training time was not as good as that of Zhao Zhen. Zhao Zhen was usually there to guide him during the competition. After practicing the Shaolin door-guarding swords, the boy who went out earlier came back by himself.

When he came to the yard, he reported: "Master, the second young master, the younger one went to the barracks where the elder young master is stationed. For some reason today, the camp door was closed and the young man couldn't get in. He waited for a long time before someone took the message in. After waiting for a while, the eldest young master came out and said that he could not leave until he got off work tonight, and then he went back."

Zhao Jin nodded and let the boy go down.

Zhao Zhen and Zhao Zhen practiced some more on their own. It wasn't until dark that Zhao Xiang came back. When he saw Zhao Zhen, he said, "Erlang, I heard that a misty world has recently been created in your Luliu Township?"

Zhao Zhen said: "Yes, it has been occupied now. It is also a second-order fog world called [Loyalty King Li Huajing]."

Zhao Xiang said: "It's so fast. Today, Shangguan also selected a group of field troops among us and other soldiers defending the city. The pay is doubled. Erlang, your two classmates Guo Kaiwen and Guo Kaiwu brothers also signed up today. Hey, they are both." He is an ambitious young man."

After hearing this, Zhao Zhen said: "I heard from Shangguan that three new foggy worlds have been formed around Chengwu County. This recruitment should be to deal with these three foggy worlds. The battle formation is dangerous, and any accident will be in vain. Life, my brother is only at the first level now, so it’s better to be safe. This time I learned the military stick method, which is called Taizu Changgun. It comes from the same lineage as the Taizu Changquan practiced by my brother. This time I will teach you. Brother."

Zhao Xiang was very happy after hearing this. That night, Miao Erniang prepared a good banquet, and everyone sat together, drinking and talking, and dispersed at midnight.
