Water Margin people

Chapter 740 Su Yuanjing

"You still haven't accepted the order!"

Cai You stood up directly holding the imperial decree, looked at Wang Huan and the other five and scolded.

Wang Huan, Zhang Kai, Xiang Yuanzhen, Mei Zhan, and Wang Wende got up and knelt down to receive the imperial decree.

"Let's organize the soldiers and horses. Tomorrow, I will send troops to Jeju to calm down the water pirates and rescue Taiwei Gao!"

Cai You opened it directly, and there were only four words in the imperial decree: "Do it cheaply", and then it was the emperor's jade seal.

Seeing the four words "doing it cheaply", Wang Huan and the others all changed their expressions. This is a great power, and they can even be killed first.

Cai You looked at the kneeling crowd and smiled smugly. He was the one who invited this edict into the palace.

After knowing that he was going to lead the ten Jiedu envoys, Cai You knew very well that a new Huaihai Jiedu envoy alone would not be able to suppress the ten old Jiedu envoys who had been leading troops all the year round, so he needed a means to suppress everyone. Undoubtedly the best.

"Yes!"

Although Wang Huan and the others were unwilling in every possible way, they had no choice but to obey orders because the Holy Order was above.

the next day.

Cai You led the army and headed towards Jeju.

"Brother Wang, let's just go there with our heads down?"

Zhang Kai looked at Wang Huan and said, he is most afraid of Liang Shanbo.

"Let's take one step at a time, pass on the order, slow down the marching speed, and march thirty miles a day!"

Looking at the four Jiedu envoys around him, Wang Huan said, the ten brothers were also in the world back then, and Wang Huan was the eldest brother. Although they are all Jiedu envoys now, the rest of them are willing to listen to this elder brother.

"Thirty miles? I'm afraid that Cai Xuanfu will have an opinion!"

Xiang Yuanzhen said, what they are most afraid of is the imperial decree of "doing things cheaply" in Cai You's hands.

"Let's just say that the soldiers have been working hard all the way, and now their legs are weak!"

Wang Huan said, he has been in the army for many years, and he has never fought such a blindfolded battle. Now that Cai You has issued military orders randomly, he can only delay. Marching thirty miles a day, the enemy can react even if there is an ambush .

Satisfied, Cai You led the Chinese army forward slowly while riding a horse and humming a little song.

"Cai Xuanfu, why don't I go ahead and recruit the culprits, and if the culprits are willing to surrender, I won't have to use swords!"

Su Yuanjing looked at Cai You and said.

"Then Taiwei Su will go first. Taiwei Su doesn't have to be afraid of those thieves. If the thieves want to use force, just report my name, and I will scare the thieves out!"

Cai You looked at Su Yuanjing with a smile and said.

Su Yuanjing smiled helplessly, and left the team with a group of entourage soldiers on horseback, and walked quickly to Jeju.

The marching speed of the officers and soldiers was slow, and Su Yuanjing quickly got rid of the officers and soldiers, and arrived at the junction of Puzhou and Jeju in the afternoon.

"Speed ​​up and get over the hills before dark!"

Su Yuanjing ordered to the soldiers around him.

"Hey, I opened this mountain, and I planted this tree. If you want to pass from here on, I will leave it to buy road money!"

Li Kui jumped out like a blind man holding two axes, and shouted domineeringly.

"I am Su Yuanjing, Taiwei of the Great Song Dynasty, and I have been ordered to go to Liangshan. Are you from Liangshanbo?"

Su Yuanjing was taken aback first, Li Kui didn't look like a good person no matter what he looked like, he thought he was a strong man who cut the path, but when he thought that this place was close to Liangshanbo, the one who cut the path could only be someone from Liangshanbo.

"Hey, my brother didn't make a decree, why are you a group of birds going to Liangshanpo!"

Li Kui doesn't care about the emperor's will, he only recognizes Sun Lei's will, and the rest will not work even if the king of heaven comes.

"You barbarian is so ignorant, I'm here to give you riches and honor, go and report!"

Su Yuanjing could tell that the big black man in front of him was a barbarian who didn't understand anything, but he fit the image of a thief, rude, barbaric, and unreasonable.

"Grandpa is Li Kui, the black whirlwind in Liangshanbo! You dare to ask grandpa to report to you, and you are looking for death!"

Li Kui was furious, he is now one of the leaders of Liang Shanbo, and he is not a small guy, so he does not do the work of passing on messages.

"Tie Niu, what are you doing?"

Jiao Ting came out from the side and said.

"This guy is a dog official of the imperial court. When I chop him up, I will take the head and go to my brother to ask for credit!"

Li Kui pointed to Su Yuanjing and said.

"This is Taiwei Su, this way please!"

Jiao Ting said with a smile.

Seeing this, Su Yuanjing was a little unresponsive, and quickly signaled to the soldiers around him to let a few people go back to report the news. Liangshan had already set up an ambush.

"Since you've come to my territory in Liangshan, don't rush to leave!"

Lu Fang and Guo Sheng led people to block the way of Su Yuanjing's team.

Seeing this, Su Yuanjing had no choice but to follow Jiao Ting, and he reached the top of the hill not long after.

"Brother Su, we haven't seen each other for several years!"

Wen Huanzhang looked at Su Yuanjing approaching with a smile and clasped his fists.

"Brother Wen, why is it you!"

As soon as Su Yuanjing saw Wen Huanzhang, his face changed several times. He and Wen Huanzhang used to be classmates. Later, he won the exam, but Wen Huanzhang failed. Over the years, he has been promoted all the way, from the official to the Taiwei, but Wen Huanzhang is still the same. In opposition, he even gave up the idea of ​​imperial examination.

But Su Yuanjing knew in his heart that in terms of talent and learning, he was not as good as Wen Huanzhang. It was just luck. In Tokyo these years, he and Wen Huanzhang had been in frequent contact, but Wen Huanzhang suddenly disappeared a few years ago. , and then the contact was broken.

"I am now one of the military divisions in Liangshanbo!"

Wen Huanzhang said with a smile.

"You fell into grass!"

Su Yuanjing looked at his classmates and friends in disbelief. He couldn't believe that such a talented man chose Luocao.

"Haha, it can be said that I am a thief in your eyes!"

Wen Huanzhang was very open-minded, and said with a smile, if this matter was changed to Liangshan when he first came to Liangshan, he might have been a little hesitant, and he couldn't accept it, but now he is even proud of it, he is doing the right thing, and if he succeeds, he will It will be famous forever!

Su Yuanjing looked at the friend in front of him, he was at a loss for words for a while, he didn't know what to say, but Wen Huanzhang looked at it very openly, he smiled and beckoned Su Yuanjing to sit down, and the two started chatting like this.

"Brother Wen, this is not a long-term solution. I know that you are frustrated. This time, I came here with an imperial decree to recruit you. In the future, you will also be able to enter the court as an official. With your talent, you will definitely be able to show your ambitions!"

Su Yuanjing looked at Wen Huanzhang and said, he knew that failing the imperial examination was a knot in Wen Huanzhang's heart. If you go another way, you can become an official by recruiting security, which is a shortcut.

"Brother Su, I'm afraid this matter will disappoint you."

Wen Huanzhang smiled and shook his head.

"Brother Wen, this is a clear path!"

Su Yuanjing looked at Wen Huanzhang in puzzlement and said, in his opinion, Wen Huanzhang should be the most receptive to recruiting on Mount Liang. For a literati who has studied hard for decades, what is better than having an official? The body is more important.

"Ming Lu? I already have it, it's in Liangshan, it's in my brother!"

Wen Huanzhang said.

"Brother Wen, you are..."

Su Yuanjing saw that Wen Huanzhang spoke sincerely and resolutely, and knew that Wen Huanzhang really wanted to fall into the grass, otherwise, with Wen Huanzhang's unyielding character, no one would be able to force him.
