Water Margin official

Zhang Zhengdao smiled and said: "Professor, do you know about Liangshanbo in Jeju?"

Wen Huanzhang stroked his beard and already understood what Zhang Zhengdao meant.

"Do the officials want to occupy this mooring, gather in the mountains and forests, and turn grass into bandits, waiting for the opportunity?" Wen Huanzhang asked.

Zhang Zhengdao nodded and said: "To be honest with you, Professor, I intend to occupy Liangshan Po, but I am single and weak, so I invite Professor to come out."

Wen Huanzhang was silent, as if thinking.

Zhang Zhengdao added: "There is a huge island in the eight hundred miles of water, which can hide tens of thousands of armored soldiers. It has thousands of branches crisscrossing the harbor, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack. In addition, the water channel here is smooth. Go north to Beiqing River

, can go straight into the sea, leading to Goryeo, Tamna, and Japan."

"To the south, you can walk along the Wuzhang River, Sishui River, and Nanqing River, directly to the south of the Yangtze River." Zhang Zhengdao said with a smile: "Such a precious land is where I can show off my skills."

Wen Huanzhang asked again: "Where do the soldiers come from and where will they come out?"

Zhang Zhengdao replied: "Do justice for heaven, reward good and punish evil!"

Wen Huanzhang nodded appreciatively. Looking at the young man in front of him who did not hide his ambition from him, he couldn't help but feel a surge of pride in his heart.

Just as he was about to speak, his wife came into the house and said, "We have run out of rice at home. Go buy some rice."

Wen Huanzhang's pride suddenly dissipated, and he smiled bitterly and said: "I'll go right away."

Zhang Zhengdao smiled and said: "Why bother the professor for some trivial matters? I'll let the brothers outside buy them."

Wen Huanzhang clapped his hands and said: "It makes the officials laugh."

Zhang Zhengdao came outside the house, took out some silver, stuffed it into Wei Gui, and said: "Brother Wei, please buy some rice for the professor, ride your horse, and go back as soon as possible."

Wei Guidao: "I'll go right away."

Then he rode down the mountain.

Back inside, Wen Huanzhang was sitting on a stool, meditating.

Zhang Zhengdao said no more, just waiting for him to make a decision.

At this time, a child wearing wild flowers on his head got into the house, threw himself into Wen Huanzhang's arms, stared at Zhang Zhengdao with a pair of big black eyes.

"Haha, this is the little girl Cai Die." Wen Huanzhang said with a smile.

Zhang Zhengdao saw that the girl was very cute and asked: "How old is she?"

The girl's round face and childish voice timidly said: "Five years old."

Wen Huanzhang combed her messy bun and said, "Go find your mother."

The girl jumped out of the house.

Zhang Zhengdao said seriously: "Professor, don't let future generations become the blood of foreign races."

After a long while, Wen Huanzhang sighed: "When I was young, I had great ambitions and wanted to protect the country and the people. I showed what I had learned in my life and stepped into the officialdom. I became the chief administrator of Zezhou. Because of my influence under Xu Jing,

Being dragged down by an incident, I lost my official position and took my family with me to live in seclusion in Anren Village."

"I thought I would end my remaining life in this mountain village." Wen Huanzhang shook his head and smiled bitterly, then looked through the open window at the spring grass in the mountains and fields, and said in a daze: "My lord, when will you take this first step?"
Zhang Zhengdao was overjoyed to know that it was done.

Wen Huanzhang agreed!

Having this one person to help you is like having an army of thousands.

"To be honest, Professor, I am short of money and food right now, and I have to wait for the opportunity. At the latest by the end of next year, I will occupy that precious land, raise a banner, and recruit heroes from all over the world." Zhang Zhengdao replied truthfully.

Wen Huanzhang turned around and said with a faint smile: "Then I'll be ready. When the flag flutters in the wind, that's when I, Wen Huanzhang, will come out of the mountain."

Zhang Zhengdao smiled and said: "That's it, let's make an agreement with Mr."

Wen Huanzhang stretched out his hand, and Zhang Zhengdao patted it down, high-fiving him and vowing never to break his promise.

The two looked at each other and smiled in understanding.

"Today, I will give the official a magical weapon." Wen Huanzhang thought of something, stood up, and began to search carefully in his pile of books.

After a while, Wen Huanzhang straightened up and handed a book to Zhang Zhengdao.

""The Picture of Guarding the Order"?" Zhang Zhengdao looked at the title of the book, opened it casually, and was stunned.

"This book is also known as "The Map of Prefectures and Counties in the World". It is said that this atlas took twelve years to complete. It used Shen Kuo's own 'flying bird diagram method', which is more accurate. There are two maps in it.

Ten pieces, including the entire Song Dynasty and maps of various states." Wen Huanzhang said with a smile.

"In addition, the four to eight directions of the map are divided into twenty-four directions, which are called by the twelve earthly branches, the four hexagrams of A, B, Bing, Ding, Geng, Xin, Ren, Gui, Baqian and Qiankun, Genxun. Even if the map is lost, as long as you get this

The book, which distributes the prefectures and counties according to the twenty-four solstice, can be drawn immediately without any mistakes." Wen Huanzhang heard the sound of horse hooves outside the window, but it was Wei Gui who left and returned, carrying the rice he bought into the house.

Inside the house.

Zhang Zhengdao's eyes shone brightly, and he held the map without letting go. In this era, if he had an accurate map and marched to fight, he already had a three-thirds chance of winning.

"Sir, you are really talented!" Zhang Zhengdao put the book close to his body and thanked him again.

Wen Huanzhang said: "When I got this book, I couldn't put it down and studied it all night. The world is so vast that I wish I could measure it with my own feet."

Zhang Zhengdao smiled and said: "In the future, I'm afraid that the professor will break his legs just to see this magnificent river and mountains."

Wen Huanzhang nodded and said: "I would rather have peace in the world than to afford weapons."

Zhang Zhengdao looked solemn and sighed: "I would rather be a peace dog than a man in troubled times."

The two were silent for a while again.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit heavy, Zhang Zhengdao thought for a while and said, "I will leave Bianliang City tomorrow and return to Qinghe County, Yunzhou. If there is an incident in the future, I will definitely send someone to ask for the professor."

Wen Huanzhang said: "The officials are so anxious, but what happened?"

Zhang Zhengdao then told the truth about Gao Jie's plot to capture Mrs. Wei.

Wen Huanzhang pondered for a moment, frowned and said: "I have also heard about this Gao Jie. I heard that he is a man who is greedy for women and has many wives and concubines at home. I am afraid that after he gets the news, he will send someone to intercept him halfway."

Zhang Zhengdao actually had no idea what method Gao Jie would use, whether to intercept her with a boat in the river or follow her closely until they reached the shore, and then take Mrs. Wei back to Bianliang City.

Wen Huanzhang thought for a while and said: "Why don't we take advantage of the fact that the city gate is not closed today, abandon the bulky things, and leave the city from Fengqiu Gate overnight, go to the Guangji River Pier, and take a boat directly to Liangshan Park."

Zhang Zhengdao also felt that he should leave Bianliang City earlier, so he said goodbye immediately: "Professor, time is urgent, see you later."

Wen Huanzhang stood up to see him off, and said as he walked: "Just wait until the beacon smoke rises from Liangshan Mountain."

After bidding farewell to Wen Huanzhang, Zhang Zhengdao took Wei Gui and rode back to Bianliang City.

At this time, it was already dark and the city gate was about to close. Zhang Zhengdao saw that he could not leave the city, so he was no longer anxious.

Back at the Wei Mansion, Mrs. Wei had already packed up all her belongings in two wooden boxes, filled with gold, silver and jewelry.

Except for part of the gold and silver, the Zhu family settled the 60,000 yuan at a discount on jewelry.

Mrs. Wei was a little worried and asked, "How can we transport this money out of the city?"

Zhang Zhengdao thought for a while and said: "Hide in the city first, leaving Wei Gui and Lu Xiaoyi to guard it. When the news is over, they will transport it to Qinghe."

Mrs. Wei nodded in agreement. These two wooden boxes were heavy and conspicuous, and it was very inconvenient to carry them around.
