The Great Song court mobilized heavy troops and prepared to encircle and suppress the Liangshan rebels in one fell swoop.

At the same time, as winter turned to spring, the Liangshan rebels’ expansion training plan was gradually completed. Those newly formed troops, although they have not yet been baptized by the flames of war.

But after a winter of training, the most basic combat skills have been mastered.

Once they are put into the battlefield, as long as they have gone through the baptism of war, they will definitely be able to grow into elite troops.

Under such circumstances, the Liangshan rebels were also ready to actively start counterattacking.

At the end of February 1114, Wu Song gathered the commanders of the Liangshan rebel army in Liangshan to discuss the next battle.

Of course, the water army side was replaced by Deputy Army Commander Nguyen Xiao Er.

Li Jun, the commander of the navy army, had already left for Dengzhou, and was enthusiastically organizing craftsmen to build a sea ship, preparing to establish the first powerful fleet of the Liangshan rebels and dominate the entire ocean.

The current task of the water army, in addition to ensuring the safety of Liangshan Water, is to transport materials for various troops and ensure that all units can have sufficient supplies of materials on the battlefield. In contrast, the combat mission is not heavy.

“Brothers, after a whole winter of expansion. Now the Liangshan rebel army is already strong and strong, and its strength is even stronger! It’s just that our enemy, the Great Song Imperial Court, is also not idle. They wanted to recruit us before, but they let Lao Tzu be a small Xiongzhou defense envoy, and they didn’t put us in their eyes at all. In that case, we want to let Zhao Yao, the dog emperor, know how powerful we are! Wusong said.

All the good men of Liangshan all scolded Song Huizong, thinking that Song Huizong was too insulting.

Wu Song is the lord of Liangshan, the great commander of hundreds of thousands of brothers, and a small Xiongzhou defense envoy wants to send Wu Song, it is simply burying people!

“The Great Commander, a small Xiongzhou defense envoy, is simply an insult to us. Wait until we pull Old Man Zhao from the dragon chair this year and replace you to sit!” Then aren’t we all great generals? Lu Zhi said with a deep smile.

“yes! In this world, his surname Zhao can be the emperor, why can’t our great commander deserve? Yang Zhi also echoed.

The other good men of Liangshan were even more coaxed.

Hu Cheng, who had already served as the commander of the Sixth Infantry Corps, was even more full of expectation.

If the Liangshan rebels really succeeded, Wusong became emperor. Then his sister Hu Sanniang, isn’t that the queen? At that time, their family will be the royal family and the country! He is the uncle of the country. Flying Huang Tengda, it is just around the corner!

If the risk of rebellion is great, it is almost carried with the head on your back.

So now, Hucheng can be said to have great confidence in the Liangshan rebels.

The Liangshan rebels not only resisted the attack of the official army, but also became stronger and stronger.

Now, there are hundreds of thousands of horses.

With the combat effectiveness of the Liangshan rebels, defeating the officials and troops of the Great Song Imperial Court, that was no problem at all.

Perhaps, their rebellion this time can really succeed!

“Well, be the emperor, I’ll talk about this later. The most important thing now is to defeat the encirclement and suppression of the officials and troops. Otherwise, the good head can’t be saved! Our brothers were either beheaded or had to be anonymized and wanted by the imperial court for life. Therefore, we must not fail. Otherwise, the consequences will be very serious! Wu Song looked serious.

The other Liangshan good men also had solemn expressions.

None of them are fools, and naturally they don’t want to live that kind of life.

“Next, Brother Zhu Wu will introduce the situation of the officials and troops of the imperial court for everyone!” Wusong said.

Zhu Wu was in Liangshan and was in charge of intelligence.

Thanks to the growth of the intelligence services, coupled with the large use of letters to transmit information.

This greatly enhanced the intelligence capabilities of the Liangshan rebels. The news of the dispatch of troops by the Great Song Imperial Court could not be concealed from the Liangshan rebels at all. Even when the deployment of the officers and troops was not yet in place, the Liangshan rebels already knew the plans of the officials and troops and knew their situation.

“Brothers, according to the information we have inquired. This time, the officials and troops can be described as menacing! In other words, the last time the big official called Su Yuanjing brought it back, Zhao He was half angry. Therefore, Zhao He has already become ruthless, and he has an iron heart to destroy us! Zhu Wu said.

Wu Song and the other Liangshan good men couldn’t help but laugh.

Last time, Emperor Huizong of Song sent the minister Su Yuanjing to Liangshan to recruit the Liangshan rebels, but the Liangshan rebels put forward several harsh conditions, so that Su Yuanjing fled back in embarrassment without saying a word.

I heard that Su Yuanjingdu has now been removed from office.

It can be seen that Song Huizong was undoubtedly angry by the conditions put forward by the Liangshan rebels.

“At present, the officers and troops have gathered heavy troops to the south, west, and north of us, and are preparing to launch a new round of encirclement and suppression of our Liangshan. To the north, the imperial court mobilized troops from Jizhou East Road and Jizhou West Road, including six forbidden armies and six box armies, about 85,000 people. It must be noted that the troops of Jizhou East Road and Jizhou West Road have been fighting against the Liao people for many years, and their combat effectiveness is only stronger than that of the elite forbidden army in Bianjing. The will to fight is also stronger. Zhu Wu specially emphasized.

Wu Song and the generals of Yiganliangshan all had solemn expressions.

As the forefront of the confrontation against the Liao State, the troops on Jizhou East Road and Jizhou West Road were already under greater pressure. The Liao people are ferocious, and if they are not able to resist their attacks, it is the result of the destruction of their families. Therefore, this made most of the troops assembled on this line of the Great Song Dynasty brave and tenacious.

“To the south, the imperial court mobilized the troops of Huainan West Road, Jiangnan East Road and Liangzhe Road, as many as six forbidden armies and thirteen box armies, with a strength of more than 130,000 people. However, the combat effectiveness of these armies is relatively bad, and many of the van army units are old and weak. Although there are a large number of people, the combat effectiveness is relatively poor. The threat to us, not too great. Zhu Wu continued.

It can be said that the combat effectiveness of the troops mobilized from the south, whether they are the forbidden army or the box army, is far from being comparable to that of the northern troops.

The south has been peaceful for a long time, and there is no threat from foreign races, and the armament will naturally be abandoned.

Under such circumstances, how much combat effectiveness can these armies of the Great Song Dynasty have?
