Chapter 106: Pulling a tree into a ladder (for Wang Zitai
Chao Yong and Wu Song sat in the grass by the river, talking to each other about what happened after they separated last year.
After hearing what Chao Yong said, Wu Song patted his thigh and said, "Brother, you have lived a happy life this year, but Wu Song has lived this year in vain, leaving only these two golden marks on his face."
Chao Yong shook his head and said: "Brother, I beat a tiger with my bare hands on Jingyang Gang. Who doesn't admire the heroes in the world? I just regret that the world is muddy and evil people are running rampant, forcing heroes like my brother to have no way out."
Wu Song thought of Ximen Qing, Pan Jinlian, Jiang Menshen, Zhang Doujian and others who had forced him to be assassinated twice. He couldn't help but feel resentful. He stood up and said: "It's getting dark. Let's go to Mengzhou now. If we wait any longer, this will happen."
I’m afraid the bad breath will kill me.”
Chao Yong also felt that the mosquito bites by the waterside became more severe after nightfall, which was really uncomfortable.
The two of them immediately got up and rushed towards Mengzhou City. When they arrived at the foot of Mengzhou City, they realized that they had missed one issue.
Although Mengzhou is a small state, the city wall is still three or four feet high.
The two walked around the city for a while, but found no low or dilapidated places, so they couldn't help but look at each other.
Wu Song thought for a while, but had no clue. He couldn't help but punched the city wall in anger, and said unwillingly: "Is it possible that we have to let them live one more night?"
Chao Yong turned around and suddenly saw the trees beside the official road. He couldn't help but smile and said: "Yes."
Wu Song had already decided to give up. Hearing this, he couldn't help but look at Chao Yong in surprise and said, "Brother Yong, what method have you thought of?"
Chao Yong pointed to the trees in the distance and said with a smile: "Let's pull out a tree and climb up against the city wall. Lu Zhishen once pulled out weeping willows in Tokyo. You and I also have supernatural powers.
Not weaker than him."
Wu Song thought this method was a bit outrageous, but after hearing that Lu Zhishen had once pulled out willows, he was not to be outdone.
At that time, the emperor Taizu Zhao Kuangyin's throne came from his own military power. Therefore, after the throne was stabilized, he released his military power with a glass of wine and deprived the generals who supported him as emperor of their military power to prevent them from supporting others in the future.
After removing the military power of the generals in the DPRK, Zhao Kuangyin was still uneasy. He also formulated a national policy of strengthening the branches and strengthening the weak branches, and brought all the best soldiers and horses in the world to the capital. Only some soldiers and horses were left to maintain public order in the local area to prevent local princes from attacking.
Military chaos.
In this way, although there were no local princes to cause trouble, there would still be some refugees and bandits plundering the city from time to time. At this time, the local military strength would seem insufficient.
In order to allow the imperial army from the capital to quickly move into the local areas to quell the chaos, the imperial court asked every state capital to build official roads leading to Tokyo. Trees such as elms and willows should be planted on both sides of the official roads, and some low-lying areas should be dug for drainage.
Every five miles there is a ditch made of earth, with stone tablets on it engraved with road mileage and state and county boundaries.
There were many trees on the official road that were decades old. The two of them walked to the roadside and took a look at them in the moonlight.
Chao Yong pointed to one of the four-foot-tall willow trees and said, "This one is enough."
Wu Song looked at the tree trunk, which was about a foot wide, and walked two steps forward: "I'll give it a try."
"You have an injury on your back, so I'll do it."
Chao Yong rushed forward, lowered his right hand, and climbed down. He pulled out the upper section with his left hand, exerted force on his waist, and pulled out the entire willow tree.
Wu Song listened to the crackling of tree roots underground and couldn't help but praise: "Brother Yong is so powerful."
Chao Yong, however, had already used all his strength. Seeing that there was something going on, he mounted his horse again, grabbed the willow tree upside down, and used all his strength to pull out the tree by its roots.
However, this moment also drained all his strength. The tree left the ground and fell to one side. Chao Yong was also thrown to the side.
Seeing that Chao Yong had lost his strength, Wu Song quickly hugged the willow tree, and Chao Yong did not fall down with him and the tree.
Wu Song saw Chao Yong's face turned red and said hurriedly: "Brother Yong, are you okay?"
Chao Yong straightened up, panted, and said: "It's okay, it's just that I used a little too much force just now. It'll be fine if I take it slow."
The two of them held on to the tree. Chao Yong rested for a while before he felt that his strength had recovered, so he picked up the tree and moved it to the edge of the city.
When Chao Yong managed to reach the edge of the city, his legs were already weak and he was sweating profusely. However, he had just pulled out the tree with too much force.
Wu Song helped Chao Yong to lean the tree against the city wall. Seeing that Chao Yong's legs were shaking a little, he said: "Brother Yong, I'm afraid you were injured when you pulled the tree just now. If you don't wait for me here, I will go into the city alone."
We can kill those thieves if we go there."
Chao Yong took a deep breath, shook his head and said: "It doesn't matter, I have recovered. The night is long and the dreams are many, I will help you climb up first."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and motioned for Wu Song to step on it. Then with a strong force, he threw Wu Song to a height of more than ten feet. Wu Song grabbed the branch and climbed to the top of the city in twos and twos.
Chao Yong also climbed up step by step along the trees.
Mengzhou is located in the center of the Song Dynasty, and there are many soldiers and horses stationed there. It has not suffered from military disasters for many years, so its precautions are lax. The soldiers who were supposed to patrol the city did not know where to hide and sleep. When the two of them went to the top of the city, they saw that
There was no one around, so he walked down the corridor and down the city wall.
At this time, every house in the city was closed and doors were closed everywhere.
Wu Song was already familiar with Mengzhou and soon found his way outside the garden wall behind Zhangdu Prison.
When they heard that no one was inside, they climbed up the wall and jumped into the back garden.
Along the path, you will soon arrive at the Yuanyang Tower.
When they were about to go upstairs, they heard Zhang Dujian, Zhang Tuanlian and Jiang Menshen talking from above.
Zhang Dujian was having a drink when he suddenly felt palpitations in his heart and couldn't help but ask: "How are the skills of the two apprentices you sent?"
Jiang Menshen looked at Zhang Dujian's question and quickly put down the wine glass in his hand and said: "Don't worry, sir, they are also top-notch among my dozens of apprentices. Moreover, after Wu Song ate twenty spine staffs, even a tiger became deformed without its backbone."
He has become a sick cat, and this time he will definitely be killed."
Zhang Tuanlian also said: "Exactly. Besides, there are two men as helpers, and Wu Song is carrying wooden shackles. If they still can't kill Wu Song, they will be too incompetent."
Hearing this, Zhang Dujian nodded and said, "That's true, but I suddenly felt a palpitation in my heart, as if something ominous was about to happen."
Hearing this, Door God Jiang said with a smile: "I asked them to start at Feiyunpu. Feiyunpu is more than ten miles away from the city gate. I bet they came back late. The city gate is closed, so they can't enter the city tomorrow. Tomorrow
They will definitely bring good news in the morning."
After Zhang Dujian heard this, he felt a little relieved and sighed: "Wu Song is a good man. If he were at the border, I would not be willing to kill him even if I had to take a thousand taels of gold. But here in Mengzhou, he
It’s not as good as the money from Happy Forest.”
After hearing this, Jiang Menshen hurriedly said: "Don't worry, sir. The money I collect every month after taking over Happy Forest will be given to the two adults in full." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome.
