Water Margin: You dog official, you still say you don’t know martial arts?

Chapter 691 Zhou Tong: What do you think of the imperial court? [3 more]

"Ouch..."

Zhou Tong and Lin Chong held their hands and feet respectively, groaning in pain...

"Brother, you're so tough!"

Lin Chong looked at Liu Gao, who was safe and sound except for being soaking wet, with a bitter look on his face:

That’s right, this is my elder brother who is so weak that he can’t even tie a chicken!

Just now, he and Zhou Tong hit Liu Gao reflexively.

After he made the move, he suddenly realized that it was Liu Gao and quickly stopped.

The result was that hitting Liu Gao was like hitting an iron plate.

Lin Chong’s wrist was almost broken!

Liu Gao chuckled, took off his clothes, wrung out the water and asked:

"Fifth brother, how is the battle going now?"

"Brother, I am incompetent..."

Lin Chong was very depressed when he talked about this:

"We lost the land battle at first, and then we also failed to win the naval battles..."

Seeing how depressed he was, Liu Gao was afraid that not only had he lost the battle on land and water, but that his general had also been taught a lesson.

But Liu Gao didn't ask because he didn't want to rub cumin into Lin Chong's wound.

Finally, Lin Chong confessed:

"I will fight them.

“An old general named Wang Huan came up, and I couldn’t take him down in my haste.

"After about fifty rounds, he was at a disadvantage, and Han Cunbao came to help him.

"I can't handle it..."

"These two are both extremely brave!

"You are able to defeat them two against one. Even though you have lost, it is still an honor for you, my fifth brother!"

Liu Gao comforted Lin Chong and asked:

"No one is here to help you?
"Just watch you get beaten two on one?"

Lin Chong sighed:

"We have Lu Fang and Guo Sheng coming up to help, but they are not good at martial arts.

"There is only one Wang Wende on the other side, and Lu Fang and Guo Sheng are no match for him..."

"I don't blame you."

Liu Gao patted Lin Chong on the shoulder:

"It's my fault that I transferred so many brothers away, otherwise it wouldn't be like this..."

"No, it's still my incompetence..."

Of course Lin Chong couldn't let Liu Gao take the blame alone, so the two brothers started fighting over it.

After much arguing, they finally reached a consensus:
"It's all Tong Guan's fault!"

Lin Chong asked Liu Gao about the situation in Jiangnan. Liu Gao gave him a brief account of the situation in Jiangnan:
“Blah blah blah…

"Don't worry, Fifth Brother, I'll go first.

"My second brother (Gongsun Sheng), sixth brother (Guan Sheng), seventh brother (Wu Song), and ninth brother (Yue Fei) will come soon.

“I have brought back the three Ruan brothers and the Zhang brothers as well as five thousand elite soldiers.

“When the time comes, I will notify my third brother (Lu Zhishen) and Sun Li to each bring a group of elite soldiers to support us.

"Let's join forces inside and outside, attack from all sides, and beat Tong Guan hard!"

"Hurrah!"

Lin Chong was very happy, but then he asked again:

"Brother, this will expose our strength.

"If the imperial court is determined to wipe us out, now is not the best time for us to rebel..."

"It's definitely not the best time, but it doesn't necessarily mean we're going to revolt."

Liu Gao laughed:
“The 130,000-man army couldn’t defeat us, so the imperial court may not be willing to invest more troops.

"Don't forget, there are the Liao and Jin kingdoms to the north.

"In my opinion, the most likely option is to recruit him."

"Recruitment?"

Zhou Tong's eyes lit up:
"If we surrender, we will all become government troops!"

In the original novel, Lin Chong was eager to be recruited, but after experiencing so much, Lin Chong had lost interest in the idea.

So Lin Chong was not very surprised, but just had doubts:
"Brother, can this really lead to amnesty?"

"Really capable."

Liu Gao spread the wrung-out clothes on the beach and took off his pants to wring them out. There were no outsiders around anyway: "The harder we beat Tong Guan, the more likely we are to recruit him."

Lin Chong was stunned: "Brother, do you want to surrender?"

"Of course we can recruit you, but we won't serve the imperial court like dogs."

Liu Gao drew a circle with his hand:

"Have you heard of Erlang Shen?

"We just listen to orders and not announcements—

"In fact, Xuan doesn't listen to the instructions or anything."

Zhou Tong was stunned when he heard this: "What can the court do?"

Liu Gao spread out his wrung-out trousers on the beach and pulled out his goose-feather fan:
"If you don't do it, I'll keep beating you!"

Lin Chong gave a thumbs up vigorously:
"Brother is right!"

Good guy!
Zhou Tong was speechless: What do you think of the court?

"Wow... Wow..."

A small boat approached the golden sand beach in the night, and the little follower handed the letter to Lin Chong and left.

Although Liu Gao was there, he was not wearing any clothes, so the minions did not recognize him as the leader of Liangshanpo.

"Silk——"

When Lin Chong opened the letter, he gasped and quickly forwarded it to Liu Gao:

"Brother, here's the news from Cao Zheng!
"I know this 'Thunderbolt' Ling Zhen, he has real skills!
"If he comes, I'm afraid..."

Liu Gao took a look at the letter and was delighted:

"I was so confused that I actually forgot about this great God!"

Lin Chong was stunned: "What?"

Since Liu Gao traveled through time, he lived a life of swords and sabers every day, and he even forgot that there were cannons in this world.

What’s even more outrageous is that Ling Zhen’s single shot can actually hit a distance of fourteen or fifteen miles!

Fourteen or fifteen li is seven point five kilometers, and one kilometer is one thousand meters, so this is seven thousand five hundred meters!

In this era, it is simply a powerful weapon for conquering cities and territories. How could I have forgotten it?

"Take it!"

Liu Gao pointed his goose feather fan toward Tokyo:
"Must take it!"

Lin Chong asked quickly, "Brother, how do we capture him?"

“I’m going to Tokyo again.”

Liu Gao patted Lin Chong on the shoulder:

"Don't worry, there's still enough time."

It is only 200 kilometers from Yunzhou to Tokyo, which is just a day's walk for Liu Gao.

But it is definitely not an option to go alone. It is better to be safe than sorry. Liu Gao has to wait for Zhang Bao and Wang Heng.

Two days later, Zhang Bao carried Guan Sheng and Wang Heng carried Wu Song, and they arrived at Liangshanpo ahead of time.

Liu Gao felt that it was a waste of talent to let Zhang Bao and Wang Heng follow him, and he should let them follow Dai Zong.

Delivering an order, delivering a message, moving important people and valuables, etc. is the best way to make the best use of one's talents.

Liu Gao handed Liangshanpo over to Guan Sheng, and set off with Lin Chong, Wu Song, Zhang Bao and Wang Heng.

"Baozi, you carried my fifth brother on your back, Xiaowang, you carried my seventh brother on your back."

Liu Gao made all the arrangements very clear.

Lin Chong asked curiously, "Brother, what about you?"

"It's urgent. I won't take the carriage."

Liu Gao smiled faintly: "I'll just follow you."

What?
Zhang Baowang glanced at each other and couldn't help but persuade:

"Master, we two brothers are very fast..."

Wu Song also advised: "Brother, let Wang Heng carry you on his back!

"My big feet can walk fast!"

"Don't be polite to me."

Liu Gao waved his hand disapprovingly:
"Don't worry, I'm faster than Baozi Xiaowang!"

Everyone was skeptical until they reached the other side on a small boat, and then Liu Gao displayed his "swift steps".

"Whoosh whoosh..."

Lin Chong, Wu Song and Zhang Baowang stared in amazement as the pale-faced scholar disappeared in a flash.

Lin Chong and Wu Song couldn't help but sigh in sympathy:
"Brother, you are so fast!"
