() It is night, the back hall of Yamen, the prefect of Jeju City.

Two people without official uniforms sat facing each other.One is Zhang Shuye, Zhizhou, and the other has eagle eyes, a big eagle nose, and a black beard under his jaw. He is the privy envoy Tong Guan.

There were two letters in Zhang Shuye's hand, one of which was naturally Song Qingzhao's letter of surrender, Zhang Shuye could see the tricks in it at a glance, so he dismissed this letter at all.

The other letter came from Su Taiwei of the capital, and he had to pay attention to this letter, but the content of the letter made him unacceptable, and it actually asked him to stop attacking Liangshan.

One must know that for the success of this campaign against Liangshan, Zhang Shuye could say that he had put in all his effort and mobilized all the forces he could mobilize. How could he just give up?It's just that he can't decide this matter now, because the military power is in the hands of the secret envoy Tong.

Sometimes Zhang Shuye couldn't help but wonder how such a timid guy climbed to such a high position?Although he was defeated by Liang Shan twice, is it not enough to talk about Liang Shan's change?I really don't understand why the court sent him out to lead the troops.

Zhang Shuye looked down on Tong Guan, and Tong Guan also looked down on Zhang Shuye.

In fact, Tong Guan’s departure from Beijing this time was not aimed at Liangshan. The imperial court made a secret agreement with the Jin State to attack the Liao State. The first time he sent troops, he was defeated by the Liao soldiers who were defeated by the Jin soldiers. The Jin soldiers were about to be defeated. The capital of the Liao Kingdom is now, and if the imperial court does not send troops, I am afraid that they will not even be able to drink soup, let alone the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun.

Tong Guan didn't want to take on this task at all, but the imperial court had no generals to send, and besides, Grand Master Cai Jing didn't want the political opponents to gain military power, so he pushed him out.

The soldiers and horses defending the capital could not move, and it took too long to mobilize troops from various places. At this moment, Zhang Shuye sent a memorial. While affirming the necessity of attacking Liangshan, after defeating Gao Qi, he gathered nearly 10 troops. The news of the people and horses came up.

The emperor was worried about not being able to find soldiers. When he heard that there were still so many troops in Jeju, he immediately sent Tong Guan to lead his troops to assist Zhang Shuye in destroying Liangshan, and then went north to attack Liao.

Thinking of the strength of Liangshan soldiers and horses gave Tong Guan a headache, so even though Zhang Shuye kept urging him, he still found various reasons to refuse to send troops.

Just when Zhang Shuye and Tong Guanga were in Daya, the letters from Song, Qing and the imperial court arrived almost at the same time, which gave Tong Guan a reason not to send troops.

Although he had already greeted the women of the eighteen generations of Tong Guan's ancestors in his heart, Zhang Shuye had to be patient and persuade Tong Guan.

"My lord, I have the most reliable news. There has been internal strife in Liangshan. Song Jiang's whereabouts are unknown. Lu Junyi has left. Liangshan is now leaderless. It is the best time to wipe out Liangshan. As the saying goes, how can others sleep soundly beside the couch? Liangshan It's too close to the capital, and sooner or later it will become a serious problem for your confidantes, so please send troops early, my lord."

Tong Guan squinted his eyes at Zhang Shuye, and said in his heart, looking at your expression, you can tell that you must be robbing my ancestors in your heart. If I let you get what you want, wouldn't you be sorry for your ancestors?Scholars, hum!Isn't that a pious face to the face, but a man who steals and prostitutes behind his back?Lao Tzu is also a villain, but he is a real villain.

Are you saying, is Liangshan so easy to fight?Brother Gao is dead, it’s a lesson learned from the past!Liangshan is against my fate, so I said nothing about going there.

It can be said that Tong Guan has already suffered from a serious Liangshan phobia. Otherwise, he is such a flamboyant person, why would he dare not even show his face when he arrives in Jeju, and it is strictly forbidden to hang his handsome flag in the barracks. To put it bluntly, he is afraid that Liangshan will know He is here.

His face sank, and he said in a drawn voice: "Master Zhang, don't forget your identity. It is not up to you and me to decide whether to send troops or not. I advise you to send someone to send this begging surrender form sent by Liang Shan to the capital immediately. If His Majesty agrees to carry out the campaign, Tong will live up to his prestige and personally lead the army to wipe out the bandits in the Liang Mountains. Therefore, I will never send troops until His Majesty's order is fulfilled."

Zhang Shuye couldn't bear it anymore, stood up angrily, and said loudly: "This opportunity is not to be missed, and it will never come again. Liang Shan's letter is obviously delaying time. Don't you understand such a shallow truth? I want to ask the Holy Majesty join you"

Tong Guan yinyin smiled and said: "Okay! You and I will make a statement to the imperial court at the same time, and see if the imperial court believes in you or me"

Zhang Shuye also said this in a moment of impatience, of course he knew that Tong Guan's strength in the court was not something he could compete with at all.Say a few nice words to make up for it.But Tong Guan didn't want to talk nonsense with him, he flicked his sleeves, turned and went back to the back hall.

Zhang Shuye pointed at Tong Guan's back and trembled with anger, he also had soldiers in his hands, but without Tong Guan's support, the tens of thousands of horses he assembled would not be enough to hold Liang Shan between his teeth.

Zhang Shuye also advocated recruiting Liangshan in the past, but since the news that Gao Qi was killed, Song Jiang disappeared, Lu Junyi left, and Song Qing's sudden emergence made Zhang Shuye feel a sense of crisis, let alone Song Qing and his brother Song Jiang's approach was completely different, which made Zhang Shuye believe that Liangshan led by Song Qing was definitely a huge hidden danger, so he made up his mind to destroy Liangshan.

If Tong Guan doesn't cooperate, everything is empty talk.Zhang Shuye had no choice but to go back to the mansion to write a memorial and report to the court, and at the same time ordered someone to take Song Qing's fraudulent surrender letter with him.

If there was no Tong Guan, Zhang Shuye would have burned Song Qing's letter a long time ago, but Tong Guan already knew about it, if he burned it again, he would inevitably give the truth.

He can only hope that the court is on his side now.At the same time, he firmly believed that Song Qing would not do nothing, and while strengthening the spying on Liangshan, he also strengthened the security of Jeju to prevent Liangshan from attacking.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye, both Jeju and Yangshan were very peaceful, at least on the surface.

Tong Guan had a good time these few days, he was not in the mood to attack the Liao Kingdom.To fight Liangshan, I don't have the guts.On the pretext of waiting for the imperial edict, he simply stayed in Jeju City.His subordinates found a singer for him, with a sweet appearance, a petite figure, fair and delicate skin, which won his favor, and he almost hangs out with her these days.

It was just getting dark, Tong Guan and the singer had drank a few glasses of wine, and were about to have sex, when the sound of chaotic footsteps came to his ears.

Who is so impolite, didn't you see that my lord is about to do something?Before Tong Guan yelled angrily, he saw Zhang Shuye barging in with an angry face, followed by servants who kept trying to dissuade him, obviously Zhang Shuye barged in forcefully.

This is Tong Guan's inner room, Tong Guan and that singer are almost married, where should this face be put?

Tong Guan's face sank immediately, and while frantically grabbing his clothes and putting them on, he said angrily, "Zhang Shuye, you are too presumptuous."

Zhang Shuye ignored Tong Guan's anger, with a livid face, he threw something like a report in his hand.

"Master Tong, look at this!"

Zhang Shuye is usually quite decent as an official, but Tong Guan, who is a little calmer, also feels that there is a problem.Ignoring the messy clothes, he picked up the letter thrown by Zhang Shuye, unfolded it, and looked at it for a few times before his expression changed.

"The official ship was robbed, the oil and fire...the thorns are gone..."

No matter how dull his head was, Tong Guan knew at this moment that he had been tricked by Liang Shan.Fortunately, the army is still there.

"Come here, beat the drums, gather the generals" and ran out in a hurry.

Tong Guan finally acted vigorously, but it's hard to say whether he will be able to do so in time.

Knowing the urgency of the situation, Zhang Shuye was not the time to complain about Tong Guan, so he walked out with Tong Guan, and said: "It's getting late today, even if the army is gathered, it will be useless, so I suggest that you should order first." The three big camps have stepped up their guard to prevent Liangshan from robbing the camp, and we will gather the army to fight against the Liangshan bandits at dawn tomorrow."

Tong Guan was concerned and confused. Hearing what Zhang Shuye said, his heart suddenly moved. He turned to look at Zhang Shuye, and said in his heart, "Isn't this a ready-made scapegoat? I have nothing to be nervous about."

"My lord, Zhang Hei! I blamed me for trusting the bandits in Liangshan. Fortunately, you discovered Liangshan's tricks in time. I decided to give you full command to destroy Liangshan from now on. On the day of success, I will personally report to the court. Playing your merits, I hope you will never fail to live up to my entrustment!"

Zhang Shuye is an upright official, and he doesn't have so much flirtatiousness.Hearing what Tong Guan said, he didn't know whether he was happy or sad. Finally, he could mobilize the army, but he didn't know if it was too late.

After hastily explaining a few words to Tong Guan, he took Tong Guan's troop transfer order and went to arrange the city defense for tonight.

Tong Guan watched Zhang Shuye disappear from sight with cold eyes, and snorted, "Come here, I will serve you with pen and ink."

Shi Qian made a great contribution this time. When he was carrying out the task, he was thinking about the importance Song Qing attached to these items, so his first thought was not to destroy them, but how to bring them back in their entirety.

In fact, it is really difficult for him to destroy this batch of things. The general who transported this batch of things obviously also thought that someone would take care of this batch of things, so dozens of large ships were separated by a certain distance, and they wanted to ignite them at the same time. Dozens of ships are out of the question.

Moreover, the officers and soldiers on the ship are heavily guarded, and any suspicious ships cannot approach.

However, everything is not absolute. The official ship may be able to withstand thousands of troops, but it cannot stop the footsteps of Shi Qian who is unique in the world.

On a moonless night, Shi Qian sneaked into a large ship specially loaded with clear water and grain, poured sweat medicine into the drink, and planned a good time. When the drug took effect on the second day, the water troops of the Ruan family brothers gathered at the same time from all directions. Rushing onto the official ship, although there was weak resistance, it was of no avail, and almost all the official ships were intercepted without bloodshed.

Upon receiving this news, Song Qing and others were very pleasantly surprised, and immediately changed the original battle plan. Yang Xiong and others first disrupted Jeju City, and then the army took advantage of the situation to attack.

Just when Tong Guan conspired to pin the blame on Zhang Shuye, all the troops in Liangshan were already in place, just waiting for the chaos in Jeju City.

Tonight is destined to be a rough night.
