Three hundred and eightieth IX: Wind and Fire Break through Qingzhou Bingyi
[Erlongshan·Baozhu Temple Main Hall]
"Report,,," a minion dragged his voice in a high-pitched voice, and under the sound of a series of hurried footsteps, he quickly rushed to the front of the main hall of Baozhu Temple.
Lu Zhishen was sitting in the top chair at the moment, riding on the cool breeze fanned by Xiao Si next to him. His clothes were half open, revealing his flower thorns, and he was humming a ditty in his mouth, looking comfortable and well-fed. Lu Zhishen could hear that The minion came to report. He lazily raised half of his eyelids, glanced at the minion who was kneeling on the ground, and asked, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
"There was a man who was chopping wood in front of the mountain and called the door, saying that he had something important to report to me."
After hearing this, Lu Zhishen lifted up one of his furry legs and crossed it on the chair, leaning back, and said: "Who cares about the woodcutter? Just blast them all away. What's the big deal?"
After hearing this, the gangster clasped his hands and hurriedly walked out. However, before Lu Zhishen could hum the opera for another paragraph, the gangster ran forward again. Obviously, in this hot weather, he was running back and forth. It was really not a comfortable thing to do these two times. The guy was panting from exhaustion, and his front and back were soaked with hot sweat. I saw this guy prostrating himself on the ground and reported: "The boss, that chopper The firewood guy just refused to leave,"
"You guys are so inconvenient. People who are already irritable are upset, but you don't stop for a moment and shoot at random. There is no reason not to leave."
The guy wiped away the hot sweat on his forehead and said, "Young man originally had the same plan, but as soon as he opened his bow, he heard the man at the base of the village shouting that he was an old friend of the big master. "
"Old friend..." Lu Zhishen opened his eyes, looked at the man and asked, "Did you tell me what his name was?"
"I told you," the guy seemed to have forgotten something in a hurry. He frowned and rang hard for a moment before suddenly saying, "What's your name... Caiyuanzi Zhang Qing," the little guy said, Duzui underestimated him and said: "I have never heard of this person in the world, and his nickname is also tacky. I think he is probably a swindler. If the big boss doesn't want to see him, I will just shoot him away with arrows..."
"Fart, shut your mouth quickly and open the door for me to come in," Lu Zhishen said as he jumped up and pulled on a pair of dor hemp shoes. He didn't even have time to tie the skirt of his clothes, just like a gust of wind. He quickly ran out of the hall and headed straight to the pass.
Seeing that he had said the wrong thing, the gangster ran straight down the mountain. Before the leader came down, he had already arrived at the village gate. He didn't even bother to take a breath and shouted: "Hurry up, open the door quickly." , invite that good man to come up,"
With a twisting sound, the village door opened, and a man with dark skin was invited in.
"My dear brother, I've been waiting for you for so long, and finally you are here," Lu Zhishen smiled and walked down quickly, taking the pole from Zhang Qing's shoulder. Looking at Zhang Qing's tired and sweaty appearance, he felt a little nervous. He said in confusion: "You come as soon as you come, what does this mean?"
Zhang Qing wiped his wet face with sweat, but he didn't have the relaxed chatter and laughter on Lu Zhishen's face. He frowned slightly and said, "Brother, now is not the time to talk like this."
"Looking at how arrogant you are, let's go and have a cup of herbal tea in the Juyi Hall first." After saying that, he took Zhang Qing's hand and went to the Juyi Hall that had been renovated from the main hall of Baozhu Temple.
Yang Zhi heard the sound and came to greet him. Together with Lu Zhishen, he invited Zhang Qing to sit in the Juyi Hall. Xiao Si served on the left and right and offered herbal tea. Yang Zhi said: "Some time ago, I wrote several letters to my brother. I'm looking forward to seeing you come up the mountain. Why did you come up here today? Where did my sister-in-law go..." Yang Zhi said this, looking at the bundle of firewood that Lu Zhishen put down, and asked somewhat unclearly: "This is …”
Yang Zhi looked at Lu Zhishen, and Lu Zhishen also looked puzzled. At that moment, both of their eyes fell on Zhang Qing.
Zhang Qing swallowed a cup of herbal tea in big gulps, and after feeling some of the heat, he said, "Don't get me wrong, I came up with this trick in order to avoid people's eyes and ears."
"Avoid people's eyes and ears. I wonder who my dear brother is avoiding. Could it be that he is involved in something big?"
"It's not me who is in trouble, but my two brothers." Zhang Qing unbuttoned half of his coat, fanned the hem and said, "I know everything about the two brothers. Right now, Qingzhou officers and soldiers have been ambushing them. The area around Erlong Mountain was about to use a trick to lure my brother out so that he could carry out an encirclement and suppression campaign. I came here to report the matter. The two brothers I asked about at Guanxia were both there, so I felt more at ease."
Lu Zhishen and Yang Zhi looked at each other, with a lot of tangles in their hearts. They opened their mouths but could not speak.
"My dear brother, I don't know how many officers and soldiers from Qingzhou are here now and where they are ambushing them,"
Zhang Qing shook his head slightly and said: "This...I don't know the exact number of how many came. The ambush place is in a mountain col no more than seven or eight miles away from Erlong Mountain. I heard that this encirclement and suppression was almost Most of Qingzhou's troops have been used, the two brothers must be careful and not be impulsive,"
"Brother, let me ask first, where did I get this information from?" Lu Zhishen leaned towards Zhang Qing and said, "We haven't noticed anything wrong in the past few days."
"My news is absolutely accurate," Zhang Qing said, "Yes..." Zhang Qing said this and stopped immediately because he suddenly remembered that Shi Jin said in the hotel that although he and the two heads of Erlong Mountain I have admired him for a long time, but there were some frictions and misunderstandings with Erlongshan. Zhang Qing was afraid of causing trouble, so he kept silent.
Seeing Zhang Qing's hesitating, Lu Zhishen became more and more puzzled and said: "Brother, if you have anything to say directly, you are still hesitating like this. Could it be that... there is something unspeakable and hidden here?"
Zhang Qing was afraid that Lu Zhishen would continue to ask questions, so he couldn't help but said it out. If something went wrong, there would be no gain. He immediately said categorically: "My good brother, why are you asking so urgently? What we need now is to break things." "The strategy of the army," Zhang Qing said without waiting for Lu Zhishen to ask again: "Those officers and soldiers came fully armed. Although I don't know how many people and horses there are, most of Qingzhou's people and horses came, whether 20,000 or more than 10,000, and each one of them was a Puma with a sharp sword." , now entrenched and ambushing on the side of the stronghold, with long nights and many dreams, it is definitely not a good thing. It is better to cut through the mess quickly and simply kill those officers and soldiers in one night, so as not to leave any future troubles."
Lu Zhishen and Yang Zhi had never seen Zhang Qing act so resolutely. Listening to Zhang Qing's tone and words, they couldn't help but feel a little more domineering. However, it was this unknowing domineering that made Lu Zhishen and Yang Zhi even more domineering. Some didn't respond.
Zhang Qing saw that the two of them were silent and didn't know what they were thinking. He dipped his fingers into the herbal tea in the cup, drew on the table in front of him, and said: "This is Erlong Mountain, and this is the mountain col. At the moment, although I don’t know what their plan is to lure us out, it is indispensable that it is eye-catching wealth. Let’s not talk about it, but at least now my brother has not heard any news, and there is no big group. The caravans are coming and going, it can be seen that they are still waiting and are not fully prepared yet. We just want to take the opportunity to kill them at this time and kill them all."
"Brother Xian, wait a minute, what is going on..."
Zhang Qing thought that Lu Zhishen and Yang Zhi didn't understand the plan arranged by Shi Jin. He looked at the branches in the moonlight and saw that the time was getting closer. He hurriedly said: "The prefect of Qingzhou was urged by the imperial court. They wanted to arrest them." The robbers of the Birthday Gang sent troops to encircle Liang Shanshuibo. However, thousands of people entered and were killed, and the entire army was annihilated. In order to make a deal, the Qingzhou prefect was forced to panic, so he thought of taking the two brothers first to save them. Their official route, the people from Liangshan made a big fuss in Qingzhou Prefecture last night, and all the prefects were killed by them. In order to save his life, the dog official was anxiously asked for a moment before he blurted out that this encirclement and suppression was very secret. Except for the prefect and the general who led the troops, no official of any size in Qingzhou City knew the details. But now that the prefect of Qingzhou was killed and the secrets were leaked, the general who led the troops did not know the slightest bit of the current news, as if he had been The blind men who were encouraged still acted according to their plan, and we just followed it,"
Lu Zhishen and Yang Zhi looked at each other again. Yang Zhi, who had always been opinionated, had no idea at the moment. He was a little dazed as if he couldn't keep up with Zhang Qing's inner thoughts. In fact, there was still some suspicion in his heart, for fear that it was Someone set a trap and deliberately gossiped in Zhang Qing's shop. After hearing this, Zhang Qing rushed over with good intentions, but unknowingly did something bad. Yang Zhigang wanted to ask what happened, but Zhang Qing was nervous. Then he said: "I'm afraid it's getting late. Two brothers, I don't know how many people there are on the mountain. Can 600 people be mobilized?"
Lu Zhishen hesitated for a moment, then opened his mouth and said: "Totaling the old and new, there are about 800 people, and 600 people can be called on at any time. Dear brother, this is..."
Zhang Qing didn't explain much, just said: "That would be the best. The eldest brother can send two hundred people with me, and the two brothers can also bring two hundred people each. I will go to this mountain col from here. The two brothers are like this Like... it's done," Zhang Qing said while sipping herbal tea and drawing a set of strategic plans on the table.
Lu Zhishen and Yang Zhi were both people in the government. If Zhang Qing was capable of drawing this strategic plan, Zhang Qing was definitely not able to outline this plan. This made the two of them have doubts in their hearts, and they secretly looked at each other. After so many glances, both of them felt uncertain.
Zhang Qing told the two of them one by one what Shi Jin had told him in one breath. However, after everything was finished, the two brothers, who had always been cheerful, did not say a word. At the same time, he also saw the accidental expression on their faces. However, how could Zhang Qing explain the reason clearly? He immediately said anxiously: "Brothers, let me ask you a disrespectful question, do you believe me or Zhang Qing?"
Lu Zhishen and Yang Zhi were somewhat surprised by Zhang Qing's question.
Zhang Qingkou said quickly: "If the brothers are plotting against the two elder brothers, just put this head under the knife of the elder brother,"
Lu Zhishen heard this and immediately said: "Brother, what are you talking about? Since you said it like this, we can survive even if it is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire. However, brother Ye Rong wants to ask, who told you to tell these strategies?" I listen,"
Zhang Qing exhaled, as if he had calmed down, raised his eyes, looked at Lu Zhishen and Yang Zhi, and said: "To be honest with you two brothers, this strategy is indeed the advice of an expert, but it is not convenient to say it at the moment. , naturally he came to explain to you two in person,"
Lu Zhishen looked at Yang Zhi and said, "Now that everything has been said,"
"Then let's do it," Yang Zhi said, then stepped out of the Juyi Hall and shouted: "Pass this to the leaders of all walks of life."
After hearing this, the minions waiting outside hurriedly ran around to deliver the order. Within a moment, hundreds of minions were densely gathered in front of the Juyi Hall...
