Chapter 345: The water story

Views:

Ning Yi didn't know much about things like Liangshan and Water Margin. I didn't pay attention to it at first, but later I felt that compared to Fang La's uprising, the Liangshan side, together with Tian Hu, Wang Qing and others, were just making a fuss. At this time, when Lu Agui said it, for Ning Yi, it was just an addition of a concept. Of course, if you are determined to deal with Liangshan, these basic concepts must be known.

Located in Shandong, the Liangshan Shuibo, which is more than 800 miles across, is a huge swamp formed by the Yellow River bursting and diverting several times. The waterways here are vertical and horizontal, and the terrain is complicated. In a sense, it is also quite a headache for the management of the nearby government. At the beginning, it was a small group of bandits who hid in the mountains. Encirclement and suppression required a large army, and the gains outweighed the losses. If the encirclement and suppression were not carried out, the nearby waterways and commercial roads would often be dominated by mountain bandits and water bandits. Once the small group of officers and soldiers came over, the other party immediately fled without a trace, which was completely ineffective.

"...Because of this, the local government has been helpless about this, but the Shandong East and West Roads are inherently sturdy, and they are places where tyrants gather. Because of the relationship between Liangshan and Shuibo, this place has also been affected, although the bandits There are many people, but they still have to eat. In the circle near Liangshan, many places have begun to gather, some organize villagers to guard their homes and homes, watch and help each other, and some organize and buy military horses and weapons by themselves. People who are good people may take off their clothes at night and become bandits. But because of this, there is a pattern of their own near Shuibo. They are black on the inside and gray on the outside. Open one eye and close the other..."

Ning Yi was still lying on the bed at this time, and Kang Xian was drinking tea while Lu Agui told the details of the Liangshan area.

"... This kind of thing didn't really become a problem until the Fang La uprising in the past two years, and Song Jiang also took advantage of the situation and unified the nearby villages. The people who are not very clean near Liangshan are also somewhat powerful. At that time, the strongest one was probably Zengtou City. Zeng Nong, the mayor of Zengtou, was originally a businessman from the Jin Kingdom, with a lot of wealth, occupying one place. After that, I developed carefully, and the army and horses were over 10,000 at that time. In August last year, the people in Liangshan broke the Zengtou market and got money and food for the army and horses. In Shandong, they became even more popular." Lu Agui showed Ning Yi on a map. Nodding a bit, "They must have also seen clearly the difficult situation for the court at this time. The purpose of Jiangning's robbery this time is self-evident."

Ning Yi nodded: "You have a big heart to buy bones." After thinking about it, he said, "Who did they kidnap this time?"

"On Fang La's side, there are not many high-level executives. Among them, the more powerful one may be that Zheng Biao, nicknamed Zheng Demon King..."

Ning Yi nodded: "I know this, I killed his master."

Lu Agui smiled: "There are also Changsheng, Zhang Jinren, and Zhang Daoyuan. They are quite famous. Liheng probably knows them too."

"Changsheng and Zhang Daoyuan have met." Ning Yi thought for a while and smiled sarcastically, "It's fortunate that they didn't come to my house..."

Over there, Kang Xian took a sip of tea: "A prison robbery, in fact, only a dozen or twenty people were robbed, but a big city like Jiangning was chosen. After this time, Liangshan's reputation was lost, and Fang La's side has already robbed them. The army was defeated like a mountain, and those who fled and left, as long as they still wanted a place to go, I am afraid they would choose Liangshan for refuge. But then the court can only go all out to the north, and I am afraid that Liangshan will not be considered in a year or two. It is conceivable that in a year or two Later, this Liangshanbo is another Fang La's trouble."

What Kang Xian said, Ning Yi naturally understood at this time. In some stories, it is true that they recruited Liangshan Pingla and killed two birds with one stone, but the fact is that Fang La is still in trouble, Liangshan is booming, and it is difficult for the court to take care of the front and back. I am afraid that it is equal to unbalanced. Regarding this matter, whether Kang Xian or Qin Siyuan who is far away in Tokyo, I am afraid they have already had a headache.

When Ning Yi fell into Fang La's hands, he still made such an outstanding achievement for a prisoner. He was willing to participate in the affairs of Liangshan, and Kang Xian and Qin Siyuan could not ask for it. Besides him, I am afraid they are also looking for him. Other resources or manpower try to suppress Liangshanbo's growth as much as possible without affecting the Northern Expedition. Ning Yi nodded: "If the terrain is complicated, if there are only a few times as many people, I'm afraid they won't be able to suppress them. The army of 70,000 or 80,000 people, the court can't take out at this time."

Kang Xian nodded: "There are still some resources, but if you shoot at will, I'm afraid it will just suddenly become a tug of war. The Wurui Camp can probably mobilize more than 20,000 people from the east and west of Shandong, but the combat power is not strong. In the second half of last year, Tong Shumi attacked Hangzhou. At that time, the old man Qin saw that Liangshan had captured Zengtou City, and the momentum was booming. He also thought about the future troubles at this time. He gritted his teeth and tried to settle the two sides in one fell swoop, so he ordered Wu Ruiying to take action. In the end, he came back in vain and fell short. Now it's not that there is no army, but logistics, it is really difficult to support these futile battles. "

Kang Xian is leisurely on weekdays, but when he talks about this, he can't hide the worry on his face. It's not that the Wu Dynasty was out of money, but the resources that could be used passively at the moment were already taut on a string of the Northern Expedition. Ning Yi said: "If there is no other way, the first is to appease, and the second is to cooperate vertically and horizontally, and use the strength of others to deal with this matter."

Lu Agui shook his head: "I've tried both methods, and the people who have been courting them have been there twice, but they didn't agree. In addition, they said that they would use their strength to deal with them. They were nothing more than the tyrants near Liangshan, but although they were wary of Liangshan, they didn't care about the government. I believe very much. If you send a large army and let them echo left and right, it may have a certain effect, but now the army is not easy to send out. If you want to use empty gloves and white wolves, and directly ask them to help fight, it will always have no effect. Zengtou City was attacked. After getting off, we have also thought of some methods near Shuibo, such as Dulonggang and Wanjialing in Yunzhou…”

Although Ning Yi can occasionally make strange moves, he advocates the general trend and conspiracy in his bones, and tries his best to use the positive instead of the strange. At this time, since I was just talking about a concept, the first thing I can think of is naturally recruiting. Listening to Lu Agui talking about Liangshan's rejection twice, he was a little puzzled. Liangshan and Song Jiang, didn't he just think that the court could recruit him? Could it be the wrong person sent out? He was not familiar with Water Margin, so naturally he couldn't find a suitable name. He was thinking about this, and Lu Agui had already said it, and a name fell into his mind at this time, which made him stunned for a while, and then took a closer look at the map.

"Dulonggang? Is that the one from Zhujiazhuang?"

Lu Agui looked around and said, "Well, there should be three Zhuangzi here, Lijiazhuang, Zhujiazhuang, and Hujiazhuang, the three families echo each other and join forces, and there are more than 10,000 military horses available. If you want them to take the initiative, I am afraid it is still impossible."

Ning Yi watched for a while, then raised his head and said, "Isn't Zhujiazhuang shot down yet?"

Lu Agui hesitated for a while because of his question, and finally said: "The Dulonggang area, everyone in Liangshan must be coveted, but when it comes to fighting... When it will start, I don't know... Why is Ning Gongzi so sure that everyone in Liangshan will do it? Fighting Dulonggang?"

"I... I don't know..."

****************

When Su Tan'er came back, Kang Xian and Lu Agui had already left, and Ning Yi got out of bed with a cane, thinking about Liangshan.

The yard is new, and it's not far from the Su family. Su Tan'er came back in the past. Although it didn't take long, her health was not very good after all. Ning Yi could probably understand the need for her to appear for a while every day at this time, and let her go to bed earlier at this time. In fact, both the husband and wife seem a little embarrassed now. Although Su Tan'er seems to be fine, she is actually quite weak. After all, she hasn't even sat on the moon. Ning Yi woke up yesterday and told her not to go again today, but this morning, Su Tan'er was still there. Get up quietly. She wants to facilitate this separation as soon as possible, no matter whether she is angry or angry, her mind is still set.

At this time, Ning Yi was still injured all over his body, with bandages all over his body, like a newly tied mummy. But when they sat by the bed and looked at each other, the husband and wife both laughed heartily. The small new yard, the bamboo leaves are faint, the time is only in the afternoon, after Xiaochan left, Ning Yi helped her take off her coat, shoes and socks, and let her sleep on the bed, it felt a bit like a young couple in the new house. .

"I'll go there tomorrow. You should rest too."

He said something softly, and Tan'er nodded, lying in the quilt with his head tilted to look at him quietly, looking at the back, injuries and bandages sitting on the side of the bed, after a while, it was in the warm air of late spring and early summer. Li fell asleep quietly. Ning Yi looked back at her for a while, the light and shadow on her face when the light came in, the side face dyed into pale gold by the light, and the slightly trembling eyelashes.

In this world, I'm afraid it's hard to find a couple as similar as them. Ning Yi's perseverance, Su Tan'er's strength... In fact, Ning Yi naturally understands that Su Tan'er has been taking care of him and taking care of Su Mansion these few days. What do things think. Just because one of the pillars in the family fell, another one had to hold it up. No matter how sad the heart is, it will not help many things after all. Why doesn't Su Tan'er understand why Ning Yi insisted on getting up at this time? Although he didn't say much, but things were already being done. Now that he was up and took over, she would also It can finally be attributed to the role of a woman, as long as you listen to his arrangements.

On the second day, a sedan chair stopped at the main entrance of the Su Mansion, where the mourning hall was covered with white curtains, the suona was mournful and warm, and people came to pay homage from time to time. Ning Yi walked out of the sedan car door with a cane under the support of Xiaochan, then let go of Xiaochan's hand and walked up the steps step by step. He used to be in the Su family only as a family member. Although he has done a lot of things, writing poems, making friends with talented people, and seeing through tricks to keep up the momentum of the big house of the Su family, there are still many people in the Su family behind their backs. Argument or contempt or calculation or provocation of provocation incessantly. At this time, he was still the entrant, his injuries were not healed, he walked slowly, and even his steps were a little difficult. When he raised his head with the cane, the voices were silent, and no one dared to be here again. staring at him...

Arrived at a place called Lugu Lake, the environment is good, the network is extremely scumbag, and it almost collapsed. Later, I borrowed a friend's wireless network card to upload this chapter.

Well, count carefully, there are eleven chapters this month. ^_^
