Chapter 408 The Bad Omen
Song Jiang's heart twitched slightly, and he couldn't tell whether Wu Yong's words were pure emotion, or whether they had deep meaning.So he deliberately tried to say,
"How dare Song Jiang forget Brother Chao's identity, but for the sake of the future of the brothers, he should always try to persuade him. I don't know if the scholar is willing to go with him?"

Wu Yong shook his head and vetoed, "This move is just a waste of effort. Based on Xiaosheng's understanding of Chao Tianwang, he would never agree to recruit security anyway. My brother has to find another way."

A gleam flashed in Song Jiang's eyes, and he asked inadvertently, "Since the pedant said so, did he already think of a way?"

Wu Yong looked at Song Jiang with deep meaning, and replied, "At this point, there are only two options. First, my brother brings like-minded brothers, leaves Qingfeng Mountain, and sets up another stage to sing. Second..."

After hesitating for a moment, Wu Yong finally gritted his teeth and said, "Secondly, my brother will replace King Chao Tian."

It seems that Song Jiang was given two choices, but Wu Yong was very clear in his heart, Song Jiang would never choose the first way.

Because if he chooses the first path, it means that Song Jiang's previous efforts may be in vain, and it is possible to make a wedding dress for Chao Gai.This risk is something that Song Jiang cannot bear anyway.

Obviously, Song Jiang himself understood this point, he didn't even mention the first one, he just asked, "How to replace it?"

Wu Yong was extremely satisfied with Song Jiang's statement.After all, in his opinion, those who achieve great things should be informal.If he didn't value Song Jiang's point, why would he break his promise, abandon Chao Gai and vote for Song Jiang!
At the moment, Wu Yong didn't hide it, and whispered in Song Jiang's ear, talking about his plan.

After Song Jiang heard this, he was a little hesitant, but when he thought of his ambition, he finally made up his mind, nodded and said, "Okay, after entertaining the envoys, I will act according to plan."

Two days later, Song Jiang happily welcomed Zhang Shuye's envoy, thinking that his long-cherished wish for many years would be fulfilled in one day, and whoever thought of it would be a basin of cold water.

But the envoy didn't know anything at all. He only told Song Jiang and the others that if they sincerely surrendered, they would not be allowed to make troubles.

As for how the imperial court will arrange them after they are recruited, what rewards they will receive, what kind of official positions they will be granted, and so on, that is not mentioned at all.

Seeing that there was really no useful information to be obtained from the envoy, Song Jiang had no choice but to offer gold and silver, and disappointedly sent a group of people down the mountain to wait for good students.

In the end, Wu Yong comforted Song Jiangdao, "Brother, as the saying goes, good things take time, and now the court has shown its intention to recruit peace. I think it won't take long for good news to come, just wait patiently."

Song Jiang immediately cheered up when he heard this, "Yes, I was too impatient. Speaking of which, the current situation may not be a bad thing, after all, there are still hidden dangers in our cottage!"

Wu Yong looked at Song Jiang when he heard the words, and after seeing him nod his head slightly, he understood, "Xiaosheng understands, let's arrange it, brother just wait for the good news."

A few days later, when the leaders of Qingfeng Mountain were discussing matters, Dai Zong suddenly reported,
"A month ago, a group of strong men came to Peach Blossom Mountain. There were about three or four thousand men. The leading man was named Guo Mingliang. He was cruel by nature and liked to eat human flesh, so he got the nickname Sai Zhu Can.

Originally, this matter had nothing to do with us, but Guo Liang really did too much, not to mention robbing the passing merchants every day, and harassing the surrounding people from time to time.What's more, this guy will drink with human flesh every three to five days.If things go on like this, the three mountains in Qingzhou may become forbidden places! "

As soon as Dai Zong's words fell, Song Jiang went up against the case, "Bastards, there are such scum in the world, and they are still under our noses. I must take care of this matter, otherwise how can I be worthy of that big man who is doing justice for the sky?" flag."

After finishing speaking, he stood up and bowed to Chao Gai three times, and said in his mouth, "Brother, my younger brother is not talented, I would like to lead the army to eliminate this thief and seek justice for the people around me!"

While supporting Song Jiang, Chao Gai said, "Since my virtuous brother went up to the mountain, whenever he encountered a battle, he had to go to the front of the battle in person. Chao Gai sat in the village, and I felt really sorry. Why don't you let my virtuous brother sit in the village this time. How about letting Brother lead the troops?"

Song Jiang shook his head and said sternly, "As the master of the cottage, elder brother should not move lightly. It's still best for younger brother to go out."

Chao Gai refused, and said resolutely, "It's not that I want to take your credit. You have gone down the mountain many times, fighting and suffering, and I will take it for you this time. Next time something happens, I will still go."

Song Jiang still tried hard to persuade, "The son of a thousand gold, you can't sit still, if your brother makes a mistake, how can you be better?"

It would be fine if Song Jiang didn't say this, but Chao Gai was even angrier when he said that, and secretly thought,

"What a song Gongming, you look down on me so much! You lead the troops out, you will be invincible, and when I go to Chao Gai, you will curse me for making mistakes.

As if I don't know your ghostly tricks, if I let you fight a few more times, where is my foothold? "

Chao Gai thought he had seen through Song Jiang's purpose, so no matter what Song Jiang and others said, he was determined to conquer Peach Blossom Mountain himself.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Wu Yong stood up and said, "Since brother is going, he should bring more soldiers and horses, so as not to suffer a loss if he doesn't notice for a while."

Chao Gai became more and more angry, and said decisively, "It only needs three thousand people. After all, there are only three or four thousand people in Peach Blossom Mountain. How can we need such a large number of people?"

After all, Chao Gai was about to start ordering generals, but looking around, all capable people in the cottage were Song Jiang's fans. In desperation, he had no choice but to order Liu Tang, Zhou Tong, Li Zhong, and Bai Sheng to join the army.

After eating the practice wine, Chao Gai couldn't wait to lead [-] people, and went down the mountain under the escort of Song Jiang and his party.

When the army arrived at the foot of the mountain, Chao Gai was bidding farewell to all the heroes, but unexpectedly a strange wind blew in front of him, and it blew off Chao Gai's new commander-in-chief flag from the middle.

Wu Yong immediately shouted, "No, this is an ominous sign, brother, it's better to send troops another day."

Song Jiang also said, "Wu Xuexue is right. My brother has just left the army. The wind blows and recognizes the flag, which is not good for the army. If you don't stay for a while, you can go and talk to that guy. It's not too late."

Where is Chao Gai willing to listen? He just listened to him, "Hugh is persuading me, what's wrong with the world's turmoil? Take advantage of the warm spring and don't take down Peach Blossom Mountain until they develop their momentum, but then go into the army. It's too late."

Wu Yong frowned and said, "Brother insists on this, so I don't dare to say too much, but just to be on the safe side, why don't you bring Brother Huang Xin with you!"

Chao Gai wondered, "What do you mean by that?"

"Brother, did you forget the title of Brother Huang Xin? If he goes there, it will just offset this bad omen!"

Reminded by Wu Yong, Chao Gai suddenly remembered Huang Xinzhen Sanshan's nickname, and couldn't help looking at him.

Huang Xin stood up very wittily, clasped his fists and said, "If brother Meng doesn't give up, little brother is willing to go!"

Chao Gai's thoughts changed slightly, thinking that it would be good to make a good fortune, so he nodded immediately.

After experiencing this episode, Chao Gai ordered people to set up the banner again, and led the army to kill the general in the direction of Taohua Mountain.

Let's say that Chao Gai brought [-] troops and five leaders to the foot of Peach Blossom Mountain, set up camp on the spot, and then went to check the terrain of Peach Blossom Mountain with several leaders and a dozen relatives.

But seeing that this place is tall and steep, there are cliffs and broken rocks everywhere, and the old trees in the mountains are uneven. There is only one winding path that can accommodate three or four people, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

Seeing such a scene, Chao Gai was very troubled, and said to everyone, "The road here is so difficult, if the thieves stay behind closed doors, what can we do!"
