Chapter 238 Wu Uses Three Strategies
drive drive drive ~
On the official road in the north of Yingzhou, a knight galloped up on his horse, brandishing his whip and flogging the steed under his crotch desperately. Whipped, had no choice but to continue to run forward desperately.

From Xiangcheng to the north of Wanshou, it was nearly two hundred miles, and the horse galloped all the way, almost without stopping on the road, and the horse obviously couldn't hold on anymore.

Xi Yuyu~
Suddenly, the rider on the horse reined in, and the horse neighed violently, stopped abruptly, and then fell down slowly.

The horse had already reached the point of collapse, stopped suddenly, couldn't hold on any longer, and collapsed completely.

The rider on the horse turned over hastily, jumped off the horse, quickly drew out his long knife, pointed it at the man standing in front of the horse, and cursed angrily: "Zhi Niang, are you looking for death?"

The person blocking the road, who was half lying on the ground drinking, heard the rider yelling, slowly stood up, and looked at the person with a smile.

The rider continued to yell and curse, but after seeing the man's face clearly, the long knife in his hand fell to the ground, his expression was both surprised and happy: "Wear a collar!"

The man was about 30 years old, with a Chinese character face, a stable and resolute expression, and a medium build, but his legs were thick and long. He had a wine gourd and a short knife on his waist, and his expression was very leisurely.

The leader wearing the head looked solemn, and asked in a deep voice: "What is so urgent?"

The rider hastily took out an open seal letter from his bosom, and said anxiously: "Tower Lu was tricked by dog ​​officers and soldiers in Yingshui, and [-] soldiers and horses were scattered. Leader Lu and the other six leaders They were all captured by the enemy, and now the dog officer Zhao Hao sent someone to Yingzhou to pass on the letter, but was intercepted by the little one halfway."

Hearing that, the head leader couldn't help but turn pale with shock: "Even Brother Lu has been arrested, this dog officer is so powerful!"

He took the secret letter as soon as he read it quickly, his expression changed drastically, and he immediately said to the man: "I will go to Longevity City to deliver the letter to all brothers, and you will come later."

After finishing speaking, he put the secret letter in his arms and walked south in a hurry.

The rider looked at the back of the man wearing the head collar, he couldn't help being stunned, he saw that the man was already one or two miles away in just a blink of an eye, and he was as fast as a galloping horse.

After a long time, he murmured to himself: "It may be a bit exaggerated to hear that wearing a head collar can travel eight hundred miles a day, but at this speed, it is not a problem to travel two or three hundred miles a day."

If Zhao Hao was here, he would probably praise him, "Fuck, this guy can securely win the marathon championship!"

……

Yingzhou, Longevity City.

Above the city tower, two large flags were fluttering, fluttering against the wind blowing from the Naci River, and the large characters on the flags could be faintly seen.

"Shandong calls Baoyi".

"Walking for the sky".

In the school grounds in the city, there was a chilling scene.

A group of soldiers in different costumes, with various banners, stood in the middle of the school grounds. Although the uniforms were not uniform and the weapons were varied, they were also neatly arrayed.

They then "based on Liangshanbo, ran across Heshuo, Jingdong, and Jingxi, and even reached Huainan Road, the main force of the Liangshan Army.It is also the invincible army described in "Water Margin" that Pingjiang Jiangnan Fangla, Hebei Tianhu, Huaixi Wang Qing defeated Tong Guan and Gao Qi, and broke the Liao Dynasty.

It's just that Romance is Romance after all, and this soldier and horse still can't get rid of the aura of farmers and fishermen. Although the formation is neat, it lacks the vigor and murderous look of the Western Army and even the imperial guards.

Especially when the news of Lu Junyi's defeat came from Xiangcheng, it was undoubtedly a fatal blow to the morale of this army horse.Because Lu Junyi is not only the second leader of the Liangshan Army, but also the invincible God of War in the hearts of all Liangshan soldiers.

Victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs, the problem is that the second leader Lu was not only defeated, except for Zhu Wu who was spared, the rest of the generals were either beheaded or captured.
In the school grounds, although the people and horses were neatly lined up and there was no sound, behind the chilling aura of the army, there was a bit of deathly silence.

Outside the school grounds, two riders were galloping slowly towards the school grounds with the clatter of hooves.

Immediately, the two men were both wearing battle armor and fiery red cloaks. The man on the right leaned back slightly and dropped half of his horse's head to show respect for the general in front.Dozens of brave generals followed closely behind, obviously all the main generals of Liangshan.

The two people in front, the general on the left, are short in stature, about 1.6 meters, with dark complexion. If it weren't for the pair of lying silkworm eyebrows and piercing eyes, they really wouldn't be able to see the majesty of the general.

This person is the leader of the Liangshan Army, Song Jiang who is known as Hei Sanlang, Timely Rain, and Hu Baoyi!
The man on the right has delicate features, white face and beard, if not for his fine armor, he would be a scholar rushing for an exam. He is the third person in Liangshan, military advisor Wu Yong.

The group of generals behind them are different from each other, some are vicious, some are thick-backed, some are handsome, and some are handsome.

The most surprising thing is that there is a female general with snow-white skin, crescent eyebrows, and slender waist, but her chest is as tall as a mountain, even a chain mail can't hide it, she carries two knives, heroic, her appearance style is similar to that of Liang Hongyu, Fang Baihua is similar.

Song Jiang's face was full of gloom, and he said slowly: "The dog officer Zhao Hao, sent someone to write a letter of war to me, and asked me to send troops to Xiangcheng for a decisive battle within ten days. Otherwise, leader Lu and other brothers will be executed on the spot. What's the trick?"

Wu Yong sighed slightly and said: "The official army is the main force of the forbidden army in the capital, with excellent armor, which is far from being comparable to the ordinary Xiang army; and its deputy commander is a kind of division known as Xiaozhong Xianggong. In the northwest, the Qiang people's expressions changed when they heard the name of the Zhong family. Even the son of the clan Zhao Hao, although he has only been an official for one year, is powerful all over the world. Disasters, and he did not hesitate to risk the disapproval of the world, resolutely killed [-] corrupt officials and evil officials in the west of Beijing, and then he was safe and sound, this person should not be underestimated!"

Song Jiang's complexion changed slightly, and he asked, "Then according to the opinion of the military advisor?"

Wu Yong sighed slightly: "The bandit army is so powerful that it can be defended but not attacked! Now that the Northern Expedition is imminent, why don't we just retreat to the water pond? If we can't attack for a long time, we will inevitably run out of food and grass. At that time, the financial resources in the north will be tight, so we will naturally retreat. !"

Song Jiang's expression became more and more displeased, and he asked in a deep voice: "Isn't that just watching Leader Lu and his brothers being killed?"

Wu Yong said with a wry smile: "This is the middle policy, there are still better and lower policies."

Song Jiang's eyes lit up, and he asked, "What's the best strategy?"

Wu Yongdao: "The best strategy... the son of the clan, Zhao Hao, is very benevolent in getting rid of violence and keeping the people safe. If we are willing to accept the recruitment, we will definitely not treat us badly. Then leader Lu and others don't have to worry about being killed."

Song Jiang was silent, looked back at the generals behind him, shook his head sadly and said, "Why don't I want to recruit security, but I'm afraid it's not the time to recruit security now. What's more, that Zhao Hao killed several brothers, and the brothers only wanted revenge , how are you willing to recruit?"

Wu Yong's expression also dimmed, and he gritted his teeth and said, "In this case, the only thing we can do is to make a bad move!"

"What about the next move?"

"The army is divided into two groups: one is led by Chai Daguan with [-] troops, starting from Longevity City, under the banner of elder brother, and slowly marching towards Xiangcheng to attract the attention of the enemy; Huang Wenhu's merchant ships in Huaixi, together with other merchant ships, can add up to more than a hundred ships, one of which can accommodate hundreds of people. We can select thousands of soldiers, play the banner of Huang Wenhu's food gang, and deceive the officers and soldiers along the way. , headed all the way to Yingshui, traveling day and night, and arrived near Xiangcheng in about five or six days, then landed at night and attacked Xiangcheng at night, killing the bandit army by surprise!"

Song Jiang looked overjoyed, and then asked suspiciously: "This is a really clever plan, but even if we get to the gate of Xiangcheng at night, we don't have any siege equipment, how can we attack the gate?"

Wu Yongdao: "The moat around Xiangcheng has been filled up by the leader of Qin, the suspension bridge has been burned, and the city gate to the north was smashed by the officers and soldiers with a car, and now it has been repaired in a hurry, and it is far from solid. It is not as good as other gates. Our army has leader Ling accompanying him, and he will bring more thunder and thunder. He will surely blow open the city gate and then take the opportunity to enter. Let a few brothers sneak into the city in advance. If you set the fire on fire, then the city of Xiang will be destroyed!"

When Song Jiang heard this, he couldn't help smiling: "Wonderful, the military master's plan is really great!"

After finishing speaking, he waved his hand: "Let's go, go to the general's platform!"

……

Xiangcheng.

Zhao Hao walked side by side with the two teachers, patrolling the streets of Xiangcheng, followed by Yang Keshi, Han Shizhong and other generals.

The two talked quietly while patrolling the street.

Zhao Haodao: "I heard that Song Jiang dispatched troops in Longevity City and vowed to fight to the death with this commander. Now he has led nearly [-] troops out of the city and is looking for Xiangcheng. What advice does the old general have?"

The teacher frowned slightly, and said slowly: "As soon as the thieves received the letter, they rushed out, but it was too fierce... Could it be that those thieves and bandits who claim to be heroes are really so strong?"

Zhao Hao asked: "Could it be that the old general suspects that there is fraud in it?"

The teacher in the plant shook his head, his face was extremely solemn, and said: "Liangshan bandit generals are mainly bandits who roar in the mountains and forests, strong men who block roads and cut paths, bandits who kill without batting an eyelid, and death row prisoners who fled in fear of crime. Their actions are so violent. , it is also consistent... But I heard that Wu Yong, the military commander of the Liangshan bandit army, is quite strategic, how could he be so reckless?"

Before Zhao Hao could answer, Yang Keshi behind him suddenly said, "Even if Wu Yong is Zhuge Liang reborn, he won't be able to stop Liu Bei who wants to avenge Guan Yu, haha..."

The teacher couldn't help but smile: "It makes sense."

Han Shizhong laughed loudly: "That young master is Lu Xun who set fire to the Baili Company."

When Fang Baihua heard this, he quit immediately: "How can Lu Xun compare with my son!"

In Fang Baihua's eyes, Zhao Hao will sooner or later become the supreme emperor of the ninety-five years, and Lu Xun will only be a minister if he dies, so naturally he cannot be compared with Zhao Hao.

Naturally, everyone didn't think so much, they just looked at each other and smiled, which was quite ambiguous.

Zhao Hao smiled, didn't speak, just turned his head silently, and glanced at the side of the street inadvertently.

At that moment, suddenly a black shadow flashed away from the roof next to the street.

Zhao Hao's expression changed slightly, he hastily clicked on a Clairvoyance Talisman, and looked towards the place where the black shadow had disappeared.

I saw a figure as thin as a monkey, jumping like flying on the roof beside the street, and it was hundreds of meters away in the blink of an eye.

Zhao Hao hurriedly inquired about the person's attributes, but it didn't matter if the investigation didn't matter, Zhao Hao's face changed greatly in shock.

"The city has been infiltrated with thieves and spies. The whole city is under martial law. Check carefully!"
