() Facts have proved that Song Qing's worries are by no means unreasonable.

The appeasement envoy of Jingdong East Road in Qizhou felt that there was a serious problem after fighting with the Liang Shanshui army, but there was no further instruction from the imperial court, and the messengers sent could not be contacted.

So the pacifier immediately sent several groups of scouts to Yanzhou and Yizhou respectively.There was no news from Yizhou yet, but the news brought back by Yanzhou surprised the pacifier.

Although Liangshan did not raise the flag to rebel, he actually sent troops to take over Yanzhou's city defense. What did they want to do?

Yanzhou has been actually controlled by the Liangshan people, so what about their next stop, Yizhou?I'm afraid it's more ominous now?

If Liangshan people are allowed to go on in this way, there will be no place for the court in Shandong area, no, Liangshan people can't go on anymore.

This appeasement envoy is also a very strategic official. After making up his mind, he continued to send people to report the situation here to the court, and at the same time sent people to track the whereabouts of the Liangshan people and horses to see where the Liangshan people and horses had gone. The civil and military officials of the government must mobilize troops to Mizhou, and they must block Liangshan's troops.

Just as the pacifier thought, the Liangshan troops took Yizhou without bloodshed with lightning speed, and even the Song and Qing Dynasties did not reach the capital city of Yizhou, and the war was over.

At this time, Song Qing had already received the news that Jingdong East Road appeasement envoys had gathered troops in Mizhou to meet Liangshan troops.

After receiving the news, Song Qing knew that he could no longer go to Yizhou. The court troops blocked him in Mizhou. Although he didn't know how many troops he could mobilize, the court troops had the right time and place, and this was also the best time since Liangshan's army came out of the mountain. In the first tough battle, if you fight the past, you will be flat, and there is no force to stop it. If you lose, all your previous efforts will be wasted.So you have to deal with it calmly.

He ordered Jin Maohu Yanshun to garrison Yizhou with 3000 troops, and at the same time sent Pei Xuan to assist Yanshun to stabilize the situation in Yizhou.

The two brothers did not disappoint Song Qing either. They completely copied Song Qing's method in Yanzhou, disbanded government officials and soldiers, killed evil and eliminated bullies, bought people's hearts, and at the same time sent all the family members of the main officials of Yizhou to Liangshan.This trick is undoubtedly very effective, so Yizhou quickly stabilized, and did not bring any future troubles to Song Qing Dongjin.

Song Qing sent back Guan Sheng, Qin Ming and others. After two days of rest in Fei County, they sent troops to Mizhou. In order to preserve their strength, the brigade did not speed up this time, but moved forward slowly.

When the army arrived in Sucun Town, Song Qing received two messages at the same time.

Jingdong East Road appeasement envoys gathered 6 people in Mizhou, preparing to wipe out Liangshan people in one fell swoop.At this time, the Liangshan army led by Song Qing had only more than 3 people left, which was a little more than half of the imperial court.

There is a [-] army from the imperial court ahead, and Song Qing must also go forward, otherwise all his hard work will be in vain, and he might even go back to become a bandit.

The second news came from the capital, but it was good news.It turned out that the news that Liangshan people occupied Yanzhou and violated Qizhou finally reached the court, but Liang Shicheng held him down, so the emperor still doesn't know the news from Shandong.

Song Qing had to lament the power of money, and ordered Zhang Qing to give Liang Shicheng another gift.Don't you like this stuff?I have nothing else in Liangshan, but I have a lot of money. If you help me with things, I will never treat you badly.

As night fell, Song Qing stood in front of the map, concentrating on how to deal with the upcoming battle.

Song and Qing had great confidence in the strength of the Liangshan troops, while most of the court troops in the Shandong Peninsula were dominated by Xiang troops.Therefore, although the military strength is one to two, Song Qing is not worried about losing the battle.He was thinking about what would happen after this battle.

From the map, although the four prefectures of Yun, Ji, Yan, and Yi are connected together, they are actually in danger. There are Xuzhou and Huaiyang armies in the south, and Qi, Qing and other prefectures in the east. , I can't resist at all.

The reason why we did not choose to go to Qizhou and Qingzhou at the beginning was because these places are important places of the imperial court and there are heavy troops stationed there. If we go from there, we will inevitably fight with the troops in these places. , would be very dangerous.

But in the long run, Qizhou, Qingzhou and other places must also be in their hands, otherwise there is a danger of being cut off at any time.

It seems that after this battle, it's time to recruit troops.

Pick up the information on the Jingdong East Road appeasement envoy on the desk.

Deng Shiguang, former official of the Ministry of Officials, was pushed out of the center because of his discord with Cai Jing. He was shrewd and capable, loyal to the royal family.

Obviously this is a diehard.For such a person, Song Qing would not offer any hope of surrender, after all, their identities are different, and even if such a person has weaknesses, it may not be easy to be convinced.

Since you can't be convinced, then take your sacrificial flag!

After a day's rest in Sucun Town, the army set off again, and entered Mizhou after half a day.

This Deng Shiguang was very scheming, and moved all the people from all the villages and towns along the way, and implemented the fortification of the walls and clearing the fields, obviously not wanting to leave supplementary foster places for the Liangshan people.

Fortunately, Song and Qing brought enough food and grass for this trip, so even if there were ordinary people, they would not snatch them.

Two days later, the army finally arrived outside Mizhou Prefecture.

However, countless military camps have already been set up outside the city of Mizhou Prefecture, surrounding Mizhou like stars surrounding the moon.Swords and guns flashed in the barracks, and flags fluttered over the barracks, giving them a bit of power.

Song Qing rode on the horse and set up a pergola to look towards Mizhou City.

It is estimated that they got the news of the arrival of Liangshan's army. At this time, many officials and generals gathered on the city wall, pointing and saying something.

Because Song Qing had prepared early, the soldiers maintained their physical strength very well.

Song Qing was not in a hurry to order camping, and with a wave of the flag, the army lined up.

Lin Chong took the lead, rode his horse to the front of the imperial camp, pointed his gun, and said in a loud voice: "The Heavenly Soldiers from Liangshan have arrived, how long will you wait if you don't surrender quickly? If not, the army will enter the city without leaving any behind." "

The people of the imperial court were not to be outdone, and after the sound of the medium-sized cannon in the camp, countless soldiers rushed out of the camp, and the first general, holding a big knife, rode his horse to the front of the two armies.

Pointing at Lin Chong with the big sword, he shouted: "Brave bandits, dare to invade Mizhou? Get off your horse and die, so that grandpa won't bother you."

Lin Chong sneered, didn't respond, and rode up on his horse, stabbing with his gun.

In fact, with Lin Chong's current status, there was no need for him to make a move at all, but this was the first skill before the battle, and Lin Chong hadn't made a move for a long time, so his hand was already itchy, so he was the first to jump out today.

Song Qing saw that Lin Chong was fighting, and immediately sent an order to "beat the drum"

In ancient times, soldiers used to advance when they heard the drum, and retreat when they heard the gold.But the drums of "Dong, Dong" sounded like shaking the sky.

Hearing the sound of the drum, Lin Chong became more alert, pointing his steel gun randomly, and picked the sword-wielding general off his horse after only three encounters.

Seeing this scene, Liangshan cheered thunderously.

The officers and soldiers are a bit confused, they have never fought against Liangshan troops, how do they know how powerful Liangshan troops are?

Lin Chong's hands and feet haven't moved yet!Pointing at the big gun, he shouted: "Liangshan Lin Chong is here, who else will come to die?"

Lin Chong's arrogance annoyed the officers and soldiers, but seeing two generals snatched out of the formation at the same time, one armed with a gun and the other with an axe, they waved their weapons and rushed towards Lin Chong without saying a word.

Lin Chong thought to himself that it was a good call, and raised his gun to face the two of them.These two brothers were not as good as the knife wielder just now. They fought each other, and within three rounds, they were picked off by Lin Chong one by one.

The officers and soldiers were completely dumbfounded this time. Looking at Lin Chong standing upright in front of the formation of the two armies like a god of war, and then looking at the cloud-like generals in front of Liang Shan's army, a thought popped into his mind at the same time, is Liang Shan so powerful?

Lin Chong was now challenging and no one dared to take up the challenge, and many people had already started to move back slowly.

Seeing that the opportunity was coming, Song Qing drew out the fish gut sword and shouted "Kill!"

Lin Chong was already happy, and the Liangshan heroes here were already impatient. Hearing Song Qing's order to attack, they immediately rushed down the mountain like a tiger, howling and rushing towards the officers and soldiers.

The momentum of the officers and soldiers has been lost, and these patchwork troops are not the most elite Forbidden Army in the Song Dynasty. How can they defeat the Liangshan troops who are like tigers and wolves?

As soon as the two armies came into contact, the officers and soldiers were cut down, and then retreated like a flood that burst a dike.

The Liangshan generals had a good time this time. They hadn't encountered any decent resistance since they came out of Liangshan. They had held back their energy for a long time, and now they finally had a chance to vent.

The horse generals were in front, and the infantry was behind. The corpses of the officers and soldiers who had been killed were scattered all over the field, and blood flowed like rivers.Those who responded quickly simply knelt down and surrendered.

The officials watching the battle on the city wall were all shocked, thinking that Liangshan is a hundred times more powerful than the legend.And the majestic officers and soldiers on weekdays can't help but fight too much?If it goes on like this, how can this battle be fought?

The appeasement envoy Deng Shiguang's face turned livid. He had heard about how powerful Liangshan was before, but he always felt that it was just a rumor. He mobilized twice as many troops as Liangshan. Could it be that he was no match for these grassroots bandits?

Facts have proved that his idea was very wrong, and the price paid for this mistake was too great.How should I explain to the court?

Couldn't bear to look at the officers and soldiers under the city who were being chased by Liangshan's troops, turned around, looked up to the sky and sighed, and then shouted: "Close the city gate!"

What?Close the city gate?

Many officials thought they heard it wrong. There are so many officers and soldiers outside the city. It’s fine if you don’t send reinforcements. Why do you have to let them into the city?Otherwise, wouldn't they all have to become Liangshan's ghosts under the sword?

"grown ups,"

Some officials couldn't bear it and tried to persuade them, but they were interrupted by Deng Shiguang waving their hands as soon as they opened their mouths.

Deng Shiguang turned his head to look at the officials, and said in a deep voice: "I know what you want to say, but what if the city gates are not closed, and Liangshan bandits come in behind the officers and soldiers? Mizhou is the imperial court's Mizhou, and Deng must not look at it. It fell into the hands of thieves"

Everyone understands the truth, but who can watch the past subordinates being chased and killed outside their eyes?The officials walked down the city wall one after another, some went home, and some went looking for a place to figure out their retreat.

Following Deng Shiguang's order, the city gate of Mizhou was slowly closed.Many officers and soldiers who were too late to retreat into the city were locked outside the city, and there was a lot of scolding outside the city for a while, but it didn't help, so more officers and soldiers chose to surrender.

At one stop outside the city of Mizhou, Liangshan won a complete victory, killing [-] enemies and taking nearly [-] prisoners. In addition to entering the city, many officers and soldiers scattered and fled.

Faced with this nearly perfect result, Song Qing was a little unhappy.

The city walls of Mizhou are tall, and the Liangshan people are not good at attacking the city. How can we take Mizhou?
