Water Margin begins as a captain in Yanggu County

Chapter 70 What should I do?

Wu Song rushed forward as Dong Ping shouted, "You bastard! You still dare to do this when you are about to die!"

Su Wu raised his hand to block the attack and shouted directly: "Shoot!"

Li Cheng was behind Su Wu, raising his crossbow and shooting.

There was a buzzing sound on the left and right. Dong Ping reacted very quickly and rolled on the ground. He waved the gun in one hand and cursed: "Dirty villain..."

beep beep...

I don't know how many muffled sounds there were.

Zhu Tonglei turned his head to look, it was really horrible, Dong Ping had countless arrows stuck in his body, he looked like a porcupine hedgehog...

Dong Ping could neither shout nor yell, only a low humming sound came out of his throat.

Along with the humming sound, Dong Ping's hedgehog-like body was twitching...

Zhu Tong and Lei Heng looked around and were still surprised. Why did this Supervisor Su have so many people who were good at archery?

Looking at the other thieves, they were all feeling lucky. If it weren't for Master Wu who stopped them, they would have probably ended up like this.

Wu Yong, who was being held behind Su Wu, said in a low voice: "What a pity, Ben was also a man of real ability..."

Su Wu turned around and asked softly, "Does the scholar value talent?"

Wu Yong replied: "I just sighed. I was originally a governor of a prefecture, how did I end up like this..."

"The scholar is truly intelligent..." Su Wu was really praising Wu Yong, who was using his words to assess the situation.

Wu Yong only replied: "Compared with the chief eunuch, it's nothing..."

Su Wu didn't say much, and just watched the Ruan brothers being tied up one by one, Song Wan and Du Qian being tied up one by one, and the five minions being no problem at all.

They are all tied in front of you.

Su Wu also looked at the Liangshan leaders again...

Zhu Tong said, "Master Su, shall I go aboard and invite Chao Gai?"

"Well, we must see them before dawn, otherwise, these people will become the materials for my promotion." Su Wu said.

"I know, I know!" Zhu Tong nodded repeatedly, bowed, turned around and ran away.

But Lei Heng was left standing aside sighing.

Not long after, Zhu Gui came over with a food box on his shoulder. It was Su Wu's order, so that Zhu Gui could see the scene with his own eyes and feel a little spiritual shock...

Zhu Gui nervously spread out the food box, ran to Wu Yong who was sitting on the ground, and fed him personally, saying, "Student, eat something quickly..."

Wu Yong took a bite and sighed, "Alas... There is nothing to worry about, why bother..."

Su Wu also replied: "Yes... I also want to ask the scholar, you and I have no grudges, why bother?"

Wu Yong added: "It's all Liu Tang's fault... He was born with a reckless temper and offended the captain."

"It's not a collision, it's just inexplicable, he wants to kill me, scholar, you tell me about this..." Su Wu really sat next to Wu Yong, still downplaying it.

"It must be that... Dong Ping and Yun Liwan colluded with Liu Tang and promised him some great benefits. Liu Tang was deceived and bewitched for a while, so he did such a stupid thing."

Wu Yong kept saying that when one is under someone's roof, it is time to use one's brain to speak.

Su Wu suddenly asked, "Will Chao Gai come?"

In fact, Su Wu knew that Chao Gai would come. Chao Gai had nothing else but a sense of righteousness. All his brothers were trapped here, so he would definitely come.

Wu Yong nodded repeatedly: "I will come, I will come..."

"Scholar, you are a smart man, an extremely smart man, you say... Chao Gai is here too, so your group is complete. What should we do with this achievement in front of you?"

Su Wu spoke nonchalantly, but with a hint of smile in his voice.

After talking for a while, Wu Yong was already in the mood: "It depends on what the governor wants. There is some money in the stronghold, but I think the governor is not interested in this. Then the governor must have lofty ambitions. Since he has lofty ambitions, he also has lofty thoughts and practices..."

"Who said I don't want money? You robbed 100,000 strings of cash, and I don't want more. To redeem your heads, 80,000 strings of cash must be given..." What Su Wu lacked now was money.

But Liangshan cannot really be in dire straits.

The future of Liangshan will truly shock the court and the whole country. The court will also gather armies from all over the country to attack it. Two of the current Taiwei will come in person, and Gao Qiu will come here in person.

If they were destroyed in one fell swoop, even if Su Wu was promoted to a higher level, the military officers of the Song Dynasty would be nothing but dog shit in the court and would not be of much significance.

Now what Su Wu wants is to tie up a civil servant, such as Cheng Wanli, who is very suitable, and then continue to make meritorious deeds frequently.

Let Cheng Wanli continue to be promoted, and in this way, Su Wu will also continue to be promoted, and wait for the troubled times, this will make sense.

This is the reality, the reality of the Song Dynasty. When Wu Yong heard that Su Wu really wanted money, he felt relieved: "Eighty thousand strings of cash, no problem, the governor is really a straightforward person, he even left 20,000 strings of cash..."

Su Wu said nothing, just smiled gently.

Wu Yong didn't say much. In front of these two people, everything seemed to be self-evident.

Just as the sky was getting brighter, Chao Gai finally came ashore from the lake and ran over. At a glance, he saw his brothers tied to the ground one by one.

But how could he be angry? He only had a look of fear and worry.

Obviously Zhu Tong also talked a lot with Chao Gai, but Chao Gai just stepped forward and bowed his hands and saluted: "The guilty man Chao Gai, I pay my respects to Su Dujian!"

Why would Chao Gai be so humble? He might not be afraid of being attacked by swords and axes, but for the sake of brotherhood and loyalty, he could do it.

The posture was really low, with the head bent to the same level as the knees.

Zhu Tong stood aside and said to Su Wu with a smile: "Here we are, General, please... show some mercy..."

Su Wu looked at Zhu Tong and said, "You are quite straightforward in colluding with the thieves."

Zhu Tong smiled awkwardly again: "We have known each other since childhood and grew up together... We have a lot of gratitude towards each other, how can I bear to do this..."

"Chao Tianwang, please stand up..." Su Wu raised his hand slightly, not looking at Chao Gai, but looking at Wu Yong: "Wu Xuejiu, don't even think about Liu Tang. I have no grudge against him, but he wants to kill himself. You don't have the ability to go to Daming Mansion to rob people. I think we should just give up."

Wu Yong also sighed: "It's your own fault, don't blame others."

Chao Gai suddenly said, "Captain, please allow me to say this. If we can get money to redeem Liu Tang, we will be willing to spend any amount of money..."

Su Wu only looked at the dawn in the east and said to Chao Gai, "First, let Zhu Tong go with you back to the village to get 80,000 strings of cash to redeem these people. Go quickly and come back quickly. As for the rest, you can discuss it slowly with Wu Xuejiu..."

Chao Gai only looked at Wu Yong, who said, "Brother Chao, things have come to this point, there is nothing we can do."

"Okay, okay, please wait a moment, Chief Eunuch." After saying that, Chao Gai immediately turned around and left.

An hour later, Lin Mao led people to move 80,000 strings of cash from the boat, in boxes. They were birthday gifts, and not all of them were money, but mainly gold, silver and jewellery.

Now, with about 115,000 strings of cash in his hands, Su Wu seemed to be relieved of some of the pressure.

"Call the brothers in the hotel, borrow all the cars in the hotel, and go!" Su Wu mounted his horse and turned to look at Chao Gai, Wu Yong, Zhu Tong and others.

Chao Gai bowed again, and Zhu Tong smiled and saluted.

Just look at the one or two hundred horses, a hundred or so men in armor, three carts with 80,000 strings of cash in them, and the body of Dong Ping riddled with arrows, running northward along the official road.

Zhu Tong's smile disappeared, he frowned and sighed.

Chao Gai hurried to untie Wu Yong and asked, "Scholar, Zhu Dutou has explained a lot to me. Alas... why is Su Wu so cruel?"

Wu Yong also sighed: "Such a powerful enemy, it's just that we didn't know what he was capable of before, it seems like he suddenly appeared out of nowhere... This Dong Ping has done a lot of harm to people, I'm afraid Liu Tang was also deceived and bewitched by Dong Ping..."

"Fortunately, fortunately, he only wants money..." Chao Gai was thankful.

Wu Yong shook his head: "He doesn't just want money..."

"Then what else does he want?" Chao Gai asked again.

Wu Yong said softly: "He wants to keep us alive and then kill us slowly and with his sword later!"

"Ah?" Chao Gai didn't seem to really understand, but he immediately asked, "What should I do?"

"What should we do?" Wu Yong narrowed his eyes slightly and said through gritted teeth: "Then we must become bigger and stronger so that he can't kill us, only then can we survive!"

"How can we become bigger and stronger?" Chao Gai only asked Wu Yong about this kind of development direction.

"We have been recruiting and training people, and collecting food and grass everywhere. Unfortunately, Coach Lin is still trapped in Su Wu's hands, so it is difficult to train soldiers." Wu Yong's words were concise, but he sighed. Now there are no talents, and no money...

Zhu Tong and Lei Heng shook their heads and sighed as they listened to this. They were not originally from the same group of people, and Zhu Tong had never thought of becoming a bandit in his life. However, these big bandits had such a close relationship with him.

Chao Gai first nodded in response to Wu Yong, and then went to meet Zhu Tong to pay his respects and express his gratitude. Zhu Tong's kindness to him was growing.

Among the hundred or so riders heading north to Dongping Prefecture.

Wu Song also asked Su Wu: "Brother, we must be on guard against these bandits. If they admit defeat today, they will become more powerful in the future and may come to seek revenge again."

Su Wu smiled and said, "Yes, so we must strengthen ourselves, sharpen our weapons and horses, and fight them one day. Otherwise, people like you and me will never have a chance to succeed."

Wu Song thought slowly, thinking about the meaning of his brother's words.

Now Su Wu had a very clear mind, and he had only one thought: he must command a large army. How many people could he support in a state or a prefecture? If he was not promoted frequently, how many people would he have under his command?

Where is the army coming from? It is coming from this road!
At this time, the Song Dynasty also had several strong armies, including the Zhong family, the Zhe family, and even the Liu family in the northwest, and the Wang Bing in Wuzhou in the south...

If we cannot use the chicken of the Song Dynasty to hatch the eggs, and cannot truly lead a strong army, within a few years, the Liao and Song dynasties will go to war, followed by the Jurchen iron hooves sweeping in. There will be no time and space to spare. How will we cope with the situation then?
{Brothers, the previous topic has come to an end. I have carefully read many of your reasonable comments (deleted some comments that directly cursed and vented emotions, and also deleted some of my own words after the main text). I am really moved by your enthusiasm. Thank you brothers. I have no other request, I just want to write something that makes you feel comfortable, and I want to gain your sincere recognition. The Qingzhou plot is about to begin, Song Jiang and many others are slowly starting to appear, and Su Wu will also lead Cheng Wanli to rise step by step, work hard and work harder! }
