Water Margin people

Chapter 639 Lin Ren
"Li Tianwang!"

Song Jiang and Lu Junyi were still planning to exchange some greetings, but at this time Li Cheng, the superintendent of the Daming Mansion, came with the vanguard Suo Chao and others, and Song Jiang and Lu Junyi hurriedly clasped their fists in salute.

"Two vanguards, there is news from the front that the thief Sun Lei has led his troops to the city of Gaotang Prefecture."

Li Cheng looked at Song Jiang and Lu Junyi and said.

"I don't know how many thieves are there?"

Song Jiang clasped his fists and asked.

"It is said that there are 5000 people."

Li Cheng replied that the news came from Gaotang Prefecture and had not been verified.

"The two of you quickly lead people to Gaotang Prefecture for support."

Li Cheng looked at Song Jiang and Lu Junyi and ordered.

"Yes, Li Tianwang!"

Song Jiang and Lu Junyi clasped their fists together and said, this time the soldiers and horses of the Daming Mansion are under the command of Li Cheng, the Superintendent of Soldiers and Horses, and they must obey orders.

"Li Dujian, why do you want these two to be pioneers?"

Suo Chao, the vanguard holding a gold dipped ax, said with an indignant face that he, Suo Chao, the vanguard, should be the vanguard of the army and horses of the Daming Mansion, not Song Jiang, a man from Zhao'an, and Lu Junyi, a rich man.

"What do you know? The bandits in Liangshan are so powerful, how can the soldiers and horses of our Daming Mansion approach so easily?"

Li Cheng glanced at Suo Chao and said, Suo Chao is just a reckless man who doesn't know how to weigh the pros and cons at all. Cannon fodder always goes first when marching and fighting. How can this cannon fodder be his own?
"But, this work?"

Suo Chao didn't listen to it at all, only thinking about killing the enemy and doing meritorious deeds. He has been in the army for many years, and he stayed in the Daming Mansion and finally got promoted to the military. What he thought was that the Daming Mansion is an important military town in the north. Chance.

"Stop talking too much, just obey orders!"

Li Cheng didn't want to care about Suo Chao, a reckless man, but just left such a sentence.

"Enguan, Li Tianwang is asking Song Jiang and Lu Junyi to test the enemy. It is impossible for Song Jiang and Lu Junyi to defeat the enemy. This battle still depends on our army."

Zhou Jin hurriedly pulled Suo Chao, who was still talking, and said, if he hadn't pulled him, Suo Chao would have run to pull Li Cheng to continue talking.

"That's the first battle!"

Suo Chao still persisted.

"Boss, Lu Junyi is the number one gun stick in Hebei, we can't compete with him."

Zhou Jin could only say that although Suo Chao was good at martial arts, he was still far inferior to Lu Junyi. Many famous martial artists in the Daming Mansion had challenged Lu Junyi, but they all ended up with disastrous defeats.

"Hmph, it's all just rumors, I'll try him when I get a chance!"

Suo Chao said incredulously.

……

Gaotang state.

"The magistrate, the thieves haven't attacked the city, should they bring Chai Jin up?"

Lin Ren, the jailer, looked at Gao Lian and said.

"What are you doing to get him out? It's fine, but I'm going to make Sun Lei sick! Make him dare to be arrogant again!"

Gao Lian glared at Lin Ren, he was humiliated by the defeat yesterday, not only defeated Yu Zhi and Wen Wenbao, but also broke the magic spell that he was proud of.

"Prefect, the reinforcements haven't arrived yet. If this Chai Jin dies, what will the thieves do if they become angry and storm the city? The villain just went to see that Chai Jin was nailed to the death row and hung in a cage for a few days. Now Eighty percent of one life has already been lost, and if I hang on for a few more hours, I'm afraid I'll die."

Lin Ren cupped his fists at Gao Lian and said.

"Huh? You go and untie him and take care of him. If there is a problem, you can only ask!"

That's what Gao Lian thought about it, Chai Jin is a good card now, he can take advantage of Sun Lei, if he is killed, it's not worth the gain, so it's better to keep it for now.

"Yes, the magistrate!"

Lin Ren clasped his fists and took a few prisoners to the top of the tower.

"The magistrate's handbook, the rebel Chai Jin brought it up!"

Lin Ren said to the several magic soldiers who were looking at Chai Jin, Gao Lian was worried that Chai Jin would be rescued, so he specially sent several magic soldiers to guard him.

After seeing Gao Lian's handwriting, several magic soldiers stepped aside, and Lin Ren hurriedly asked the prisoners to pick up the cage.

"Quickly, untie the wooden shackle and take it to the prison city!"

Seeing that Chai Jin had disheveled hair, pale complexion, chapped lips, and passed out, Lin Ren hurriedly said.

The small prisoners struggled to untie the 25-jin death row nail yoke, which would collapse the shoulder blades after wearing it for a long time.

The little prisoners put Chai Jin on the stretcher, carried him to the prison city.

And all of this was seen by Shi Qian who was sitting idle in the alley. Shi Qian had recently infiltrated the group of rogues in Gaotang Prefecture, followed Yin Tianxi with the rogues, and even went up to the city wall several times to deliver supplies.

"Why did the prisoner let go!"

Shi Qian chuckled and said in a low voice.

"Yeah, don't you want to kill!"

"Without that person, what will we do to suppress the enemy and attack the city!"

"Let's run away! Both Yu Zhi and Wen Wenbao in the city were killed!"

……

The poppy idlers are the most talkative, and after a while they started to chatter, and finally they all talked about running away.

"What are you calling!"

Yin Tianci came over and saw the rogues making noise and being furious. He was scolded by Gao Lian just now, and now he can only vent his anger on the rogues.

"Yin Zhige, why did you let Chai Jin go?"

"Is it going to surrender!"

The poppy idlers asked quickly.

"What nonsense! The magistrate is afraid that Chai Jin will die, so he will be put in prison first, and then hung up when the thieves attack the city!"

Yin Tianci opened his mouth and said.

"Don't be idle here, go to the treasury and move the logs and stones to the city wall!"

Yin Tianci looked at the group of rascals and said.

"what?"

When a group of rascals heard that they were going to carry such a heavy thing, they all sat on the ground and acted shamelessly, unwilling to move.

"All of you who are popular and drink spicy food are screaming. If you want to use it now, you will pretend to be dead for me? Get up!"

Yin Tianci saw how angry the rogues were, he went up and kicked the few people in front of him.

Shi Qian hid behind and did not speak. At this time, he could not attract Yin Tianci's attention. Shi Qian really wanted to go to the treasury. When moving things, he could take the opportunity to see the defenses and equipment of the Gaotang state treasury.

"Whoever doesn't go today, don't follow me in the future!"

Yin Tianxi roared angrily.

Under repeated threats, the rogue idlers reluctantly got up, and they were not earning a living, and they relied on Yin Tianci for food on weekdays.

Shi Qian mixed in the crowd and followed Yin Tianci to the treasury. He wanted the rogues to seriously move things. Seeing the heavy logs, bricks, and stones, the rogues were picking and choosing. Don't want to contribute.

Shi Qian saw those people dawdling, picking and choosing, smiling and mingling among them to count things, and took the opportunity to look at other warehouses.

It was dark when the things were moved, and the idlers were very tired today. They all complained about going home, and privately discussed going back and pretending to be sick for two days, and then came out after the battle was over.

Shi Qian didn't care about these people, and walked into the dark alley in a flash. After walking in the shadows, he arrived at the inn where Ma Ling and others lived.

At this time, the inn was brightly lit. Because Liangshan attacked the city, a large number of merchants were trapped in the city, so they could only live in the inn. At this time, they all ate, drank and chatted in the lobby.

Shi Qian came to the backyard, climbed over the courtyard wall and entered.
